Chapter 147 Congrats
The dragon and phoenix have always been regarded as having special significance in ancient times, but they are not completely prohibited from being used by the people. The only reasonable place for them to appear is on the head covering.

An Xu felt that everything was the same, but the uncle insisted that the dragon and the phoenix were good.

Because tomorrow is the wedding, people who came to give makeup gifts today are all here, and the whole house is coming and going, which is very lively.

Uncle An stood with his hands behind his back in the porch and watched, smiling and nodding, and said to himself: "Fourth brother, you gave birth to a good daughter, look, our family looks like a big family."

At this time, a servant ran over and said in a panic: "Old Master, several silk and satin stores in the capital have come, saying they want to add makeup to our young lady."

"What is this for?"

"Yeah, we don't know either, we just came here."

Amidst the voice, a few people hurried out from the open door, and Uncle An greeted the headed shopkeepers, "It's enough to save face, everyone, if you come to have a cup of wedding wine, why are you so hospitable?"

"We've all been taught by Ms. An," said a shopkeeper, "It's an important day in Ms. An's life. As businessmen, we have nothing to do, only these things."

Then he turned around, and with a wave of his hand, the coarse cloth covering the dozen or so carriages behind him was removed.

I saw that each car was covered with ruby ​​red scarlet cloth, which looked the same at first glance, but when you looked closely, you found that the red color gradually increased from the first car to the last car.

All of them are colorful.

At this time, another shopkeeper stepped forward and said: "There are 99 feet of red silk here, enough to go around two streets and spread it outside the gate of Zhuangyuan Mansion. Let's ask Miss An to accept it."

The uncle was almost scared to death, how much money would it cost for so much red silk?

The crowd listening on both sides was also sensational at this time, and the road to the wedding was paved with red silk. How could this daughter-in-law who the champion man was going to marry have such a big face in the silk and satin industry?
Not to mention that the common people were curious, when this matter spread to the palace, Emperor Shuntai, who was watching the dance of the newly-accepted concubine Ya, was also very puzzled.

Sitting lazily, she turned into sitting upright, and asked Liang Luanshan next to her, "What do you think that peasant girl has to do with the silk and satin industry? When they came to Beijing that day, they sent greeting cards one after another, and now they are sending red silk lichens. Why is that?" ?”

Eunuch Liang said: "The old slave was indeed asked to be investigated carefully. That girl has nothing to do with the silk and satin business."

Emperor Shuntai said: "This is strange, why does the silk and satin industry give her face so much?"

"Your Majesty, according to my concubine, it's not for that peasant girl's face." Lu Ningya, who was still dancing in the center of the hall, turned to Emperor Shuntai, knelt at the side and poured him a glass of wine, offering him with both hands: " It's about giving you face. Now who doesn't know, Mr. Zong is especially important to you, and showing face to his wife who is about to marry is to give Mr. Zong face, which is to please the emperor in disguise."

Emperor Shuntai pinched her nose with a smile, and said with a smile: "Aifei is the one who pleases me in disguise," and bowed his head: "This glass of wine, Aifei personally fed me into my mouth."

Looking at Emperor Shuntai's old face, Lu Ningya felt a little conflicted in her heart, but she still couldn't think of resistance, and even had a somewhat contradictory sense of joy in being loved.

After feeding her with fragrant lips for a few mouthfuls, Lu Ningya said again: "However, His Majesty is promoting Lord Zong, and his fiancée can't get all the benefits. Tomorrow, Lord Zong will get married, why don't you send a few more outstanding maids, This can be regarded as compensation for Master Zong."

When Emperor Shuntai thought of Zong Che's righteous sister's appearance, he felt a burst of sympathy, and said, "Leave this matter to my concubine Ai, remember to pick a few beautiful ones."

Lu Ningya was in a good mood immediately, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, the concubines must be chosen carefully, and Lord Zong will not be wronged."

In Zhuangyuan's mansion, Zong Che frowned and cursed stupidity when he heard the behavior of those silk merchants. These days he managed to turn Xu'er into an insignificant role, and they pushed her to the front of others all at once.

What if Emperor Shuntai sees that Xu'er has such charisma and insists on her staying in Beijing?
Thinking of the businesses under her name that apparently had nothing to do with her, Zong Che had no choice but to quickly send someone to remind her.

Don't make a fuss, be honest.

Although An Xu didn't know about Zong Che's worries, she also felt that it was not good to waste so much red silk as a couple. As soon as her uncle came in and said it, she asked him to invite the shopkeepers in.

As soon as the clinker came in, there were heavy gifts to send, An Xu had no choice but to accept these, but let them pull back the red silk.

"No, Ms. An, how can I take back this gift?" All the shopkeepers disagreed unanimously.

It was all ordered by the boss. In order to maintain a good relationship with Ms. An, what is this idea?
Seeing these people's firm attitude, An Xu thought for a while and said, "It's a waste of good cloth to spread on the ground. Why don't you sell it at a low price for me, and let everyone share the joy with us."

"Row."

"That's a good way."

"Miss An is still kind."

There was a lot of chatter, and the auntie only let these people stay for a while, and then drove them all out.

The high-quality red silk cloth costs ten cents a foot, which is even cheaper than coarse cotton cloth. As soon as the news came out, the people who gathered around the gate of An's house to watch the excitement became even more sensational.

Everyone rushed forward to buy.

And those who didn't bring any money, ran back as fast as they could, and when they saw their relatives and friends on the road, they also yelled to let them pass.

Once it was passed on from ten to a hundred, the outside of Na'an Mansion was quickly surrounded.

More than a dozen carts of red silk have been bought, and there are still people coming here.

The shopkeepers took the opportunity to say: "If you want good fabrics, go to our store, and you will get [-]% off today."

The [-]% discount is not as cheap as the [-]% discount just now, but some people who are in need of cloth feel that this is an excellent opportunity and follow suit.

It was not dark yet, the news spread to the palace again, this time it was not from Emperor Shuntai's secret guards, but from some women who entered the palace, all of them were laughing at An Xu's stupidity.

"Isn't it better to distribute such good cloth to the servants of the mansion than to sell it cheaply?"

At the empress's place, her natal sister-in-law didn't stop talking when she sat down, "I see, she is from a peasant family. She is petty and feels that the cloth covering the floor is worthless, so she just sold it for ten yuan a foot."

"Such a person, I don't know how many troubles I will make for Zhuangyuanlang in the future. How could the emperor be willing to give Zhuangyuanlang such a daughter-in-law? Empress, you don't know. Ruoer at home will soon become Zhuangyuanlang after hearing these words. Angrily crying."

Ruo'er is a concubine of the queen's natal family, she is stable and successful, she was raised by the queen's mother since she was a child, and she is a marriage partner that is valued by the family.

"We can't be tied up with Mr. Zong. Sister-in-law don't mention this anymore." The queen said lightly.

Before the words were finished, the sound of the emperor's arrival came from outside.

After seeing the ceremony, the queen's sister-in-law couldn't help but tell the emperor all the outside things.
