Chapter 374 Surprised to see
"Ouch! Hurry up! Now that the weather is warm, there should be snakes in this kind of place! Xiao-er, Princess Zhenxi, what are you doing here alone!" Mrs. Lu Er was most afraid of snakes, and she subconsciously cried out after hearing this. He took two steps back, his expression was a little apprehensive, and he hurriedly told everyone to go back.

"I saw a beautiful butterfly, and I wanted to give it to the little princess, so I chased it here before I knew it!" Yao Cunhui smiled embarrassedly.

It just so happened that the beautiful big orange butterfly flew out from nowhere, and flew back along the way it came from. Yao Cunhui was overjoyed, and hurriedly pointed: "Look, it's there!"

Everyone turned their heads to look, and it was really beautiful.

Qianqian was so happy that he clapped his hands and shouted excitedly: "It's so beautiful! It's so beautiful! It's still sister Xiaohui who loves me the most! Hurry up and help me catch it!"

Qianqian directed the maid who came with the two wives of the Lu family and said.

The two maids quickly agreed.Mrs. Lu smiled and asked the maid who followed her to help.

The group turned around and walked back.

Qianqian blushed with excitement, and wanted to run up to catch up.Yao Cunhui grabbed her little hand, took out a handkerchief and leaned over to wipe the sweat on her forehead and face, and said with a smile: "Little Princess, don't go, just let the servants go! You, after running for a while I’m not tired yet, my feet hurt when I go back carefully! What if another snake ran out of the grass!”

Qianqian tilted his head and thought for a while, nodded and said yes, then smiled and led Yao Cunhui, and walked with Mrs. Lu and Mrs. Lu.

"Little princess, look at how beautiful the rhododendrons are blooming over there, may I take you there to pick two branches?" Mrs. Lu Er suddenly smiled and said to Qianqian.

Yao Cunhui smiled and said: "You two ladies go first, I'll take the little Princess there!" Yao Cunhui was secretly happy, and thanked Mrs. Lv Er for stepping down such a step.

The corner of Mrs. Lv Er's mouth curled up, a half-smile, and a low hum that could hardly be traced.

"Okay! I want sister Xiaohui to take me there!" Qianqian said of course.

Yao Cunhui nodded and smiled at the two of them, and led Qianqian away.

"It's still so slippery! The little princess is very smart, sister-in-law, how can our lord be her opponent!" Mrs. Lu looked at Yao Cunhui's back and sneered.

Mrs. Lu also sneered, glanced at her eyes, and said lightly: "Let her go! Since she doesn't know how to compliment, we can't win her over!" Just get rid of her!

Mrs. Lu Er was taken aback, wondering why her sister-in-law suddenly became so calm.

"Let's go!" Mrs. Lu smiled, without further explanation.How could she reveal such a confidential matter so casually?

The rhododendrons on the hillside were in full bloom, Qianqian smiled and folded two branches to play with. The two walked through the rhododendron bushes and went out directly from the other side.

"Oh, my little bell fell off!" Qianqian touched his wrist suddenly.

"Where did it fall? Can you remember?" Yao Cunhui asked hurriedly.

"It was still there just now! It must be in the area of ​​Rhododendrons!" Qianqian said, turning around and bowing his head to find back along the way.

Yao Cunhui followed her to look for it.

Yao Cunhui's eyes lit up, and she saw a silver bracelet lying impressively in the grass beside the road. She quickly picked it up, and it was adorned with three small silver hollow balls the size of mung beans, with thin beads rolling inside. There was a soft ringing sound.

"Little princess, is it this!" Yao Cunhui spread his palms.

"Yes! That's it!" Qianqian turned his head and saw it, laughed immediately, walked back and took it from Yao Cunhui's hand, looked at it happily, and handed it to Yao Cunhui, "Sister Xiaohui, can you help me put it on?" good!"

"Okay!" Yao Cunhui took it with a smile, and tied it on Qianqian's white and delicate wrist.Suddenly, she felt dizzy and her feet went limp. Why is this bracelet so similar to the one her younger brother Yao Shizan is holding!

She clearly remembered that even when Yao Cunmei got married, when she went back to her natal home, the boy also lost a bunch of bracelets in her house and later went to look for them.The same three small bells, the chain is intertwined with aquatic plants pattern, the buckle is Ruyi cloud head pattern, and the shapes of small animals are carved on the small bells, which seem to be a little fox, a squirrel, and a little pigeon with wings spread.At that time, she was looking at Chi Chi and wanted to take a closer look, but that kid snatched it right away, leaving her baffled!
Yao Cunhui was a little restless, Qianqian, she seems to be only nine or ten years old, right?How could these two get mixed up?
"There are small animals engraved on this little bell, the little princess is really thoughtful! Where did you buy this bracelet? My sister also wants to buy one!" Yao Cunhui said with a smile.

"I can't buy this! Yes, yes—" Qianqian suddenly withdrew his hand, pulled down his sleeve subconsciously, bit his lip and refused to continue.

"Yes, what is it?" Yao Cunhui still smiled.

"A friend gave it to me!" Qianqian said with a smile, and hurriedly dragged Yao Cunhui away, "It was a friend who gave it to me. He forbids me to tell, otherwise he won't take me to play in the future!"

"Take you to play?" Yao Cunhui just wanted to call the sky, pretending to be curious and asked with a casual smile: "Where does he take you to play?"

Qianqian's eyes lit up, and he said proudly: "Go everywhere! We went to the mountains to dig out bird nests, went fishing to touch crabs in the river, and even went to the wild to barbecue and pick wild fruits! Well, we also went shopping to buy all kinds of delicious and interesting things. Little thing! And, he even took me for a ride! And..."

Yao Cunhui could only hear the sweat on his forehead, "The old prince and princess didn't look at you? There are many bad people outside, so don't mess around in the future!"

"Grandpa and grandma don't care about me!" Qianqian blinked triumphantly, she has plenty of ways to get out of the palace!

"My friend said the same thing, but with him, you won't be afraid of bad guys! He knows who the bad guys are!" Qianqian raised his chin and said again, his tone was full of trust and admiration, and his big watery eyes gleamed Bright and shiny.

Yao Cunhui smiled dryly.Qian Qian seems to simply like to play and has no other ideas, but it will be different in the eyes of others.Whether it is her or Yao Shizan, it is absolutely not allowed to be used by others because of this.

Yao Cunhui felt that it was necessary for her to have a good talk with that kid.

Yao Cunhui didn't ask anymore, Qianqian was still a child at heart, and she was open-minded, if she asked too carefully, if Qianqian didn't mean to tell the old prince and princess, it would be too obvious and embarrassing to each other.

The two came to the place where the banquet started. Everyone was still playing or talking in the same unsalty way. They seemed to have no interest, and the conversation was also soft-spoken.This is not enjoying the flowers in the garden, enjoying and relaxing, but more like completing a task with time.

After a while, the eunuch in charge came to pass a message with a smile, inviting all ladies and ladies to have a meal.

Everyone was busy laughing with Xie En, and the atmosphere became more relaxed.Not because there is finally something to eat, but everyone knows that after lunch, they can say goodbye and go home!
The banquet was held in the nearby Qingliang Hall, and the eunuchs and maids led the crowd to the past.Everyone is led to a seat.The seats were arranged in advance, basically people from the Zhou family and the Lu family sat interspersed.

On the left of Yao Cunhui is Mrs. Lu, and on the right is a county princess of the Zhou royal family.

Everyone sat down and looked at each other from front to back, left, right, and felt a little embarrassed. Most of the members of the Lu family showed a bit of disdain, while the Zhou family looked at their noses, noses, and hearts, and their slightly lowered eyes were extremely dignified.There was no laughter at the table of the young girls.

After a while, the dishes were served one by one, and after the eunuch in charge of the banquet had spoken, everyone stood up and thanked each other, then sat down, each raised their chopsticks, and stopped after symbolically using two chopsticks.When the banquet was over, they took their leave one after another.The main road is facing the sky, and each side walks halfway, absolutely without any involvement.

On the carriage back home, Yao Cunhui couldn't help laughing, wondering what the queen mother would think when she knew the process and results!
After returning to the mansion, Yao Cunhui went to see Mrs. Xiao first, and then went to say hello to Mrs. Shen, and briefly explained a few words before returning to Xihe Hall.

He didn't want to be on the way, but asked Aunt Qin to stop him head-on.

Yao Cunhui raised his eyebrows slightly: I have seen unreliable ones, but I have never seen such unreliable ones!The poor Mrs. Xue was divorced and returned home, otherwise, I'm afraid this idiot will be killed by Mrs. Xue!

Mama Li and Xiao Xing stood beside Yao Cunhui, one on the left and one on the right, and they took two steps slightly forward to block Aunt Qin.

Aunt Qin smiled and was about to come forward to greet Yao Cunhui, but before she opened her mouth, Mama Li asked solemnly and politely, "What's the matter with Aunt Qin?"

Aunt Qin glanced at Yao Cunhui, saw that she was lowering her head and lightly brushing the tiny folds on her skirt without looking at her at all, so she smiled at Mama Li: "That's right, our master is going to be promoted soon! Inside and outside The study room has to be refurbished, so this concubine specially came here to tell the princess to get some things from the storeroom!"

Master Shen Er was originally a staff member of the Seal Inspection Department of the Ministry of Officials, but now he is determined to take up the post of Shuntian Fu Yi immediately, and the transfer order will come down next month.

"There are rules for this. At that time, the stewards of the outer court and the ladies in charge of the inner house will follow the regulations! If the second master has any special requirements, he will explain to the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of Rong Hetang, and then go to the house together." Just tell the relevant manager here!" Li's mother smiled professionally, and explained to Aunt Qin in a flat voice.

Master Shen Er has not moved his official position for so many years, and this time he was promoted to two ranks in a row, and his heart was about to blossom.I don't know what he was thinking, but he actually said that it was all good luck brought to him by Aunt Qin!After accepting Aunt Qin, everything went smoothly for him and he was happy physically and mentally!
Aunt Qin was so beautiful that her heart was bubbling, she felt that Master Shen Er's words were very reasonable, and she was so proud that she almost cocked her tail to the sky, and she made all the women and maids in Ronghetang turn around and couldn't help but eagerly came out to find existence feel.

She felt that when Master Shen Er was promoted, her status would naturally rise, and the people in this mansion should give some face, right?It happened that Master Shen's two study rooms were going to be redecorated, so she took advantage of this to tease Yao Cunhui again.
