Chapter 219
"Greetings to the princess, and greetings to the princess."
Seeing the young girl walking forward and kneeling softly, although Chen Xiuyan didn't know who it was, she had an impression, because she was the only girl in Wei Taifei's group, and she was particularly eye-catching among the women.
"The youngest daughter, Wei Chiyun, is the eldest daughter of the fifth wife of the Wei family. She is the eighth in the family. My aunt uttered wild words to the princess and the concubine. My daughter apologizes to both of you." The fair and beautiful face became more and more prominent.
Wei Chiyun's appearance is gorgeous, but her attire tends to be plain, and the two-phase confrontation is also suitable. She is good at dressing up, Chen Xiuyan thought to herself.
"Miss Wei Ba, please get up." Chen Xiuyan stood up straight, stretched out her hands and smiled, and there was nothing rustic or vulgar in her gestures.
"Birth is not determined by people, but people can make progress. Although my Chen family was born in the countryside, I have a lot of loyalty to the emperor and serve the country. My younger uncle is a brave commander. Rong, defend the frontier."
"It is my Chen family's family tradition not to forget the original intention. The family status of the Chen family has changed now, but there will be no resistance to words such as country and farm. No matter how noble a person is, he still has to eat what the farmer grows. Grain and vegetables, whose family is not born with mud legs for several generations.”
"Compared with the big families, the Chen family is not prominent now, but after 30 years in Hedong and 30 years in Hexi, after several generations of management, who can say what the future will be like for my Chen family? Not necessarily." Chen Xiuyan's voice was not loud, but her momentum was majestic, and the expressions of the several women were changing with her sonorous and powerful words.
"Oh, also, luck is also a part of strength. It is my good luck and ability that I can become the concubine of the world. No matter how jealous you are, it will not help. I have a good temper. If I am not good, I will give some blessings to everyone's family." Some troubles can still be done, I hope you can restrain yourself when you go out in the future, and next time..."
Chen Xiuyan smiled and said nothing, but it was even more intimidating.
"Sister Xiuyan, let's ask the shopkeeper what the price is."
After Chen Xiuyan finished speaking, she didn't care what the other person's expression was, and continued to look at the jade carving of the baby playing lotus following the lead of Princess Changshou.
There was a lot of commotion, and the shopkeeper had already known it long ago. When he heard that his shop was full of noble ladies, as well as concubines, imperial concubines, and princesses, who were more powerful than each other, he didn't dare to Come out, afraid of the aftermath, but now that the princess has spoken, he immediately came out from the backyard.
"The princess has a good eye. This baby play lotus ornament is the latest carving by a skilled craftsman in this shop. The jade is the finest jadeite. You have seen many things, so you can definitely see it at a glance. And this carver... "
"Shopkeeper, what's the price?" Princess Changshou interrupted.
The shopkeeper held out a finger.
"1 taels?" The slightly doubtful question of Princess Changshou made the shopkeeper's heart tremble, and he immediately waved his hands again and again.
"It's 1000 taels, 1000 taels." As expected of a princess, he easily exported 1 taels.
"Then..."
"Shopkeeper, don't you have any discounts in your store?" Hearing the words of Changshou County's chief exporter, and Eunuch Xia's quick action of pulling his pouch, Chen Xiuyan couldn't wait to stop the exit for a moment.
In the end, Eunuch Xia held the box containing the baby play lotus ornaments, and Nanny Mu held a small box containing a pair of jade plaques, and the group got into the carriage.
"Sister Xiuyan, you are so amazing. I didn't expect to ask a question. They even gave us a pair of jade tokens. According to the shopkeeper, the pair of jade tokens cost 50 taels alone." Changshou princess met for the first time. This kind of good thing of buying something and giving something away, I didn't expect to be able to bargain and ask for a discount.
Changshou County mainly buys things, or they are simply given to her by others. This kind of purchase and delivery is really a novel experience.
so that...
"Auntie, the cake you made is delicious. I'll buy three catties. Can you give me something?"
"Uncle, your candied haws taste sour and sweet, can I sell more and give you something else?"
"Sister, this handkerchief of yours is beautifully embroidered, I'll buy more of you..."
Chen Xiuyan looked at Princess Changshou's high spirits all the way, and suddenly reflected on whether her behavior was correct just because of the so-called bold words of giving away big money to buy things.
However, Eunuch Xia was very happy, "Concubine Shi Zi, look at the little Princess, she really looks like an adult, she has grown up a lot, it is really right to come to Taiyuan Mansion."
"In the past, even if the little princess went shopping, she didn't have much interest, and she didn't know the details of what she saw. It's not like now. It's great."
Eunuch Xia's face was full of relief, and his eyes were flushed. This appearance made Chen Xiuyan a little helpless and sad, so she let it go. The Taiping Palace is not short of money.
"My lord's efforts now are to let the princess have no scruples. The lord has sacrificed so much. If the princess can't live freely, then the lord will be very sad." Eunuch Xia said with emotion, with forbearance in his eyes.
"However, since Concubine Wei is in Shu, why did she come to Taiyuan Mansion?" Chen Xiuyan was not familiar with the Wei family, but from a common sense analysis, it can be concluded that the other party's trip must have a purpose.
"Isn't it because we want the eighth girl Wei to come to get married?" Chen Xiuyan thought of the life experience of the Concubine Wei that Eunuch Xia had mentioned. The Wei family seemed to like marriage very much, and there was only one girl in the group that came.
Eunuch Xia showed appreciation in his eyes, "The imperial concubine is smart, if our guess is correct, the other party may value Prince An."
Chen Xiuyan's eyes widened, and then flashed away, "So today, Japan wants to show me off?"
"The concubine Shi Zi doesn't need to take those things that are not on the table seriously, and His Royal Highness Prince Jin will definitely not agree to it." Eunuch Xia replied.
Chen Xiuyan is not very worried about whether there will be more sisters-in-law now, she thinks more about Mrs. Yuan, they are all concubines, they must know each other, and they must not be allowed to see Mrs. Yuan.
A group of people ate outside at noon, went to Wangxiangju, a famous restaurant in Taiyuan Prefecture, and went to the private room on the third floor next to the river.
Chen Xiuyan directly asked the store owner to look at the fresh ingredients and match them with signs.
There are many rivers under the jurisdiction of Taiyuan Prefecture, and there is no shortage of fresh fish. There are a lot of fresh fish today, such as milky white fish soup, fat fish heads with dried radish, rice pepper, ginger, and garlic, and stir-fried river prawns.
Meat served with sweet and sour pork ribs, shredded chicken, braised mei platter
There are three fresh seasonal vegetables and a dessert of sugar cakes, which is perfect.
The drink is sweet soy milk.
Chen Xiuyan and Princess Changshou used it first, and then Eunuch Xia and his party ate, and the whole table was eaten clean.
As soon as the door of the private room was opened, the group of people who had just passed by outside stopped instinctively. Today, I really have a special fate with Wei Taifei and the group.
