Xiao Bojian only thought that Chu Lian's personal maids were facing her, and since the letter was handed over to her personal maid, it would naturally fall into Chu Lian's hands.

As soon as Wen Qing came back, he found that the letter was gone, and he was so frightened that he turned over the whole room over and over again and didn't see it. In such a hurry, I became ill and couldn't get up for several days.

Wen Qing could only comfort himself when he was recuperating from his illness, Xu Shixin accidentally fell somewhere, even if it was in Songtao Garden, he could really recognize a few words but a few big girls around Chu Lian. When something happened, Wen Qing didn't dare to say it to Wen Lan and Mama Zhong, so it kept going on like this.

As soon as Chu Lian returned to the bedroom of Songtao Garden, he asked Xiyan to take out the box of jewelry.

As soon as the pear blossom wooden box was opened, the treasure light inside suddenly shimmered, and the people who shook it were dazzling, and the people who were standing on the side were stunned.

Isn't the third grandmother going to attend the birthday banquet of the old Dingyuan Marquis today, but going to the jewelry store?

Chu Lian looked up and saw the surprised looks on the faces of several people, smiled evilly, picked up the exquisite golden unicorn "enshrined" by Princess Le Yao in the box and shook it in front of them, "How is it?

How can it not be good-looking, this is made by everyone in the queen's mother's life silver bureau.

Mama Gui and Mama Zhong both nodded stunned.

In the end, it was Mama Gui who reacted first, "Three...... Third Grandma, where did you get all this jewelry?"

Not to mention that I went to the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion to fish, if it was really so easy to fish, the threshold of the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion would be flattened.

Chu Lian smiled and waved the jewelry in the box, most of these jewelry were superb, except for a few gold hairpins and gold bracelets. But even if it's average, it's full of weight.

The best of these are Mrs. Yang's coral bracelet, Dingyuan's Marquis Shizi's pearl bracelet, Duanjia's jade wrench finger and Princess Le Yao's golden unicorn.

Chu Lian glanced at Xiyan, lowered his head, and picked up the jewelry in his hand.

Xiyan immediately understood what Chu Lian meant, and told a few people what happened in the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion.

Mama Gui and Mama Zhong were shocked when they heard this, they couldn't have imagined that such a thing would happen when the third grandmother went to the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion.

However, after being shocked, I admired my young grandmother a little, there must be no shortage of high-grade ladies at the birthday banquet of the Marquis of Dingyuan, Chu Lian is only fifteen years old, and he can deal with it calmly, which is really not easy.

Mama Gui glanced at the precious jewelry on the table, frowned, and couldn't help but sweat when she thought of the noble lady behind these jewelry. Looking down at his young grandmother, she was as happy as someone else, and she began to worry deeply.

Master's heart...... It's too wide, isn't it......

Mama Gui didn't want to say more in front of Mama Zhong, so she thought about mentioning Chu Lian when no one was around.

Who knew that Chu Lian had already picked out two pieces of gold hairpins and gold bracelets and handed them to Mama Gui beside her, "Mama, take this one and dissolve it, and come back with a silver ticket." ”

"Huh?" Mama Gui is not reaching out to take it, nor is it not if she does not take it.

She said euphemistically: "Third grandmother, this is the jewelry of those ladies." ”

I'm afraid it's not okay to dissolve other people's expensive jewelry?

"It's mine now, don't worry, I know it in my heart, take it, by the way, the list I gave you before, you can take it back according to that list." ”

Chu Lian said this, and Mama Gui had no choice but to take over a few pieces of jewelry.

Although Mama Zhong didn't say anything, she made up her mind to ask Qing when she went back in a while.

Chu Lian had dinner in Songtao Garden, and practiced calligraphy alone in the small study for a while, and Jing Yan came in to report that Qing Huitang had invited her to come over.

Mama Gui waited for Chu Lian to change her dress, and asked worriedly, "Third grandma, will the old lady call you over for today's matter in the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion?"

Chu Lian glanced at Mama Gui with a pair of clear eyes, "Mama, what are you afraid of, I didn't do anything wrong today, even if Grandmother called me over for this matter, you don't have to worry." ”

Mama Gui pursed her lips and was silent, where could she not worry, the people at the banquet could easily be royal relatives and nobles. Mrs. Dingyuan Hou Shizi, Mrs. Yang, Princess Le Yao, and Duanjia County Lord, which one of these can afford to be provoked!

may be in the relationship of more than 20 years of modern life, Chu Lian does not have much feeling about the identity and humility of the ancients. This is also one of the reasons why she did not change color when she faced so many powerful ladies when she was in Mei Ge.

Even if the Son of Heaven of the Great Martial Dynasty stood in front of her now, she was afraid that she would just bow her head respectfully and salute as usual.

Mama Gui sighed worriedly and sent Chu Lian to the gate of Songtao Garden, watching her back disappear into the end of the corridor in the dark night.

When I arrived at Qinghui Hall, I saw the old lady who had just changed into a home-style pine crane pattern skirt sitting on the floor and drinking tea.

Chu Lian performed the junior salute, and was called to his side by Mrs. He with a smile.

"Third daughter-in-law, come and sit. ”

Chu Lian sat down beside Mrs. He as he said.

At this time, Mrs. He took a small yellow mahogany box from the inside of the couch and pushed it in front of Chu Lian.

"The third daughter-in-law, come, open it and take a look. ”

Chu Lian tilted his head and glanced at Mrs. He suspiciously, under the warm light, Chu Lian's eyes were clear and smart, because he was still young, and his appearance had not completely departed from the delicate of his child. It is the time when the elders love them the most.

Mrs. He looked at Chu Lian's small appearance, and she liked it more and more.

Chu Lian opened the box and saw a set of exquisite longevity pine pattern porcelain lying inside, a small bowl, an ivory chopstick, a porcelain spoon wrapped with gold edges, and a jade chopstick holder.

Chu Lian held this set of utensils and looked up at Mrs. He strangely.

The old lady smiled, "This is what the old Dingyuan Marquis rewarded to you." ”

Chu Lian thought of the plate of longevity peaches that were brought to the banquet in the front yard, and was a little abrupt, "Is it because of that plate of longevity peaches?" ”

Mrs. He nodded with a smile, "You girl, when will you make longevity peaches, I don't know how to make some for my grandmother to taste first." ”

At that time, Mrs. He was chatting and drinking tea with a group of old ladies in various prefectures in the courtyard, and saw that the most powerful Chang entourage around Lao Dingyuan Marquis sent this wooden box over, and after asking, he learned that Chu Lian had made a plate of admirable longevity peaches by chance.

Mrs. He's heart turned over at that time, but her face didn't show anything, she accepted the salute, thanked her, and listened to the old ladies of the mansion praise a few words, and later the Zou family sent someone to tell her the details.

"Grandmother wants to eat, I'll do it tomorrow. Chu Lian hurriedly spoke.

"Good, good. That grandmother will be waiting to eat the longevity peaches you made tomorrow. ”

Chu Lian closed the lid of the wooden box and put it aside, "What is the matter with grandmother calling her granddaughter-in-law over?"

If it's for this set of porcelain, you can give it to her early tomorrow morning when she asks for peace. Since she was called to Qinghui Hall alone, Mrs. He must have something to say to her alone.

Sure enough, Mrs. He continued with relief: "Third daughter-in-law, my grandmother also heard about today's incident, and I really wronged you." But fortunately, our Lian'er is smart, so there is no way. Grandmother heard that you got a lot of jewelry from those ladies, what are you going to do with it?"

The old lady looked at Chu Lian's expression and waited for her to answer.

Chu Lian looked at Mrs. He with wide eyes, as if he was ignorant, but he smiled in his heart.

The old lady is thinking about her!

Chu Lian already had a charter for these acquired jewelry in his heart.

"Grandmother, these jewelry granddaughters-in-law were obtained because of Mrs. Yang and her party, of course they can't take their jewelry for nothing. Tomorrow, the granddaughter-in-law will write a post and personally prepare a return gift, and let them send the jewelry back with the return gift. ”

Old Taijun He, who originally had some majesty on his face, heard Chu Lian say this, and instantly softened.

Chu Lian continued: "As for the rest, they were all won by the granddaughter-in-law, and that is the granddaughter-in-law's! As for Mrs. Shizi's pearl bracelet, it is her beloved thing, and her granddaughter-in-law just keeps it for her, and she doesn't like her granddaughter-in-law anyway, so her granddaughter-in-law doesn't want to return it to her. ”

"Poof" Mrs. He couldn't help laughing.

Chu Lian's somewhat childish words made her even more pity.

Although some children are childish, but there is no problem in the overall treatment, the third daughter-in-law is simple, she has also heard of those jewelry, most of them are superb, and few daughters will be willing to give them out again. It's good that the third daughter-in-law wasn't blinded by these riches.

In the small aspect, Chu Lian is a little childish, but he has a good grasp of the overall situation. Originally, she called Chu Lian over to take this opportunity to beat her, but she didn't expect that she had already thought about it herself.

Mrs. He was more and more pleased, and at the same time, she felt more sorry for Chu Lian.

Such a good child, that stinky boy of San Lang was so ruthlessly abandoned!

When Chu Lian was a girl, the situation in the British Mansion He Lao Taijun still knew a thing or two, and originally wanted to wait, but He Changdi's sudden departure and what happened in the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion today. Mrs. He felt that it was necessary, and everything had to be planned in advance.

"Third daughter-in-law, it's getting late, you should go back early to rest, come to grandmother early tomorrow, grandmother still has something to say to you. ”

"Hmm. Chu Lian responded, gave Mrs. He a junior salute and left Qingyun Hall.

The next day, Chu Lian went to Qinghui Hall early in the morning to say goodbye.

Today, Old Taijun He seems to have deliberately gotten up early, and when Chu Lian arrived, Old Taijun was already drinking tea in the flower hall.

Chu Lian glanced at the turbid sencha on the small table and frowned slightly.

At Lao Taijun's age, drinking such a cloudy sencha is not good for the body.

When Mrs. He saw her coming, she beckoned to her and asked Chu Lian to sit beside her.

When Chu Lian sat down, Mrs. He handed her a thin account book beside her.

"The third daughter-in-law, open it and take a look. ”

Chu Lian opened the account book curiously, and after a while, he understood that this was the account book of a restaurant, and the first page was filled with the neat words "return to the forest".

"Grandmother, this is Gui Linju's account book?"

Mrs. He smiled and nodded. Guilinju is her dowry, and it has been more than 50 years now, which is a time-honored brand.
