Painting Tang Jiao

Chapter 218

"How could it be?" Qing Huan still clearly remembered that she should still be in the prime of life at this time today, although she was ill earlier, but...

Qing Huan was stunned for a moment.

Seeing is not necessarily true, so how can you believe what you hear.

With regard to the memories of her previous life, she all came from her sister Yahuan and the servants who served her.

The rest is just gone.

Today's health is a major issue, even at this time, not many people know about it.How could a mere woman who was not trusted and loved by her husband and a few servants know.

If the current upper body is worse and worse, it is inevitable that the competition for successors will intensify.

"Then when?" Qing Huan didn't know if she wanted to express some enthusiasm to the arriving wife in due course.

Rong Chen shook his head: "We just need to keep a low profile."

Even if it is lively, it has nothing to do with not being low-key.

Qing Huan soon understood.

"I wondered if we should arrange Mancao's wedding earlier." It was supposed to be later, but Mama Xia has been suffering from the cold for the past few days, but her resilience is not as good as before.

After all, it is an elderly person.

There are some things that Qing Huan doesn't want her to worry about.

If there is an old man in this mansion, it is like a treasure.

For Xia's mother, Qing Huan can only be happy, and naturally hopes that she can retire in the mansion with peace of mind.At least she can sit in the mansion. Her identity and age alone can deter many people.

And if this happens, it will affect the servants around Qing Huan.

At least one mother in charge must appear to take on the things that Mother Xia was once in charge of.

After much deliberation, there are only vines.

At least for a certain period of time, Rong Jin's body is not allowed to move out early.Maybe we can find a suitable mother in charge by then, or... let's talk about it later.

The most important thing now is to get them married first.

It can be seen that with the development of things, the plan often cannot keep up with the changes.

Naturally, Rong Chen didn't have any objections, so he took the opportunity to talk to Rong Rong with a smile.

Rong Xiao was so happy that she couldn't close her mouth from ear to ear.

Mancao also received the news.

Ling Lu knocked on the door, and didn't push the door until she heard the sound of coming in.

Vinegrass is doing needlework under the oil lamp.

Ling Lu glanced at it and said sourly: "My sister has never made one for me, but she gave it to someone else. Sure enough, this sister is no match for her lover."

"Shut up." Mancao glared at her: "Your mouth is still so sharp."

Ling Lu raised her chin: "I will protect my wife and young master from now on." What if it doesn't work.

Mancao laughed and said: "If you can be more stable, it will be a great thing."

Ling Lu sat on her body, took out a mummy's embroidered purse from the needle basket, and continued to embroider: "You say the same, Madam also said the same."

I actually feel a little wronged.

Mancao didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Madam likes you the most. Let me tell you, the two of us, ask yourself if Madam loves you the most. Even Xiao Youyuan can't compare to you. What's wrong with you? , Madam and I are only looking forward to you, okay?" Mancao is the most important one, but Linglu is the one that Qing Huan prefers the most.

Sure enough, when she heard it, Qing Huan smiled.

Mancao shook her head, still thinking it was funny, but she also understood that Qing Huan once said that Linglu had a heart of a child, even if she was in her 40s, she couldn't change her temperament.

I just hope that in the future, I can be more careful and more stable.

I don't ask for everything to change my appearance.

Zero Lu lowered her head.

Mancao sighed, took out a bundle from under the pillow and handed it to the deceased.

Ling Lu's eyes lit up, and when she opened it, she saw it was a water-red dress, and she couldn't wait to compare it, it was a perfect fit.Immediately, she couldn't see her eyes with a smile: "I just said casually that I like your clothing material, so you can make it for me."

Because of the dowry preparation.

For the few people who followed her, Qing Huan was always generous and made things difficult for her.

Two people live in one room.

Linglu took a fancy to this piece of cloth head.

Mancao secretly paid attention.

Linglu scrubbed the skirt happily, and suddenly said: "No, we are all in the same room and live together. When did you make the skirt?"

"You don't care when." Mancao rolled her eyes indecently: "Check if it fits well, and then check if it's my handicraft, isn't it?"

Linglu laughed.

Of course she recognized it.

Presumably Mancao secretly did it while she was away for a rest.

Ling Lu was happy.

Thinking about the things he had prepared, he immediately ran to the big box and rummaged through it.Originally a box was already put away, Ling Lu thought about it and added a pair of gold bracelets to it.

Mancao saw her come out holding the box.

I understood immediately.

Ling Lu handed it to her arms: "Here, I'll give it all to you."

Mancao opened it in doubt, and immediately frowned: "Too many."

On the top is a pair of gold bracelets, which were touched by creeper, and made of solid gold. She also has a pair, but it looks different.This was given to the two of them when Ling Lu gave birth to Rong Jin, and the others were gold rings and earrings.Only the two of them died.

That's not too much, there are a pair of hairpins, two pairs of earrings, and a silver lock underneath, and at the bottom are neatly placed silver ingots.

Don't look at Qing Huan's kindness to them.

But this is almost most of their net worth.

Naturally, vines don't want all of them.

But Linglu refused: "If you don't want it, I'll just throw it away."

Mancao had no choice but to sigh, thinking that she would return it when she got married in the future, so she happily took it back: "It's true of you, don't do this in the future."

Linglu smiled: "There are not many people who can make me like this."

Cranberry thinks so too.

The two smiled, but didn't say anything more.

With Qing Huan and Rong Chen's instructions, Man Cao and Rong Xiao are Qing Huan's right-hand man, and Rong Chen's confidant, and everyone in the house helps.

Soon, just a few days before the day feast.

There are banquets in the mansion.

Qing Huan sat on the teacher's chair.

Vinegrass knelt on the ground.

Qing Huan smiled: "Get up quickly, Sister Mancao is getting married too."

Mancao really refused, and kowtowed.

Ling Lu brought the teacup over.

The vine held it up high: "Madam, you drink tea."

Qing Huan could only smile, and after drinking the tea cup, she watched Ling Lu help Mancao up, with a red hijab on her head, and was helped out.At the same time, her dowry followed.

Twelve wooden crates were sent out.

Everyone in the house was stunned.

Many people once again felt Mancao's place in Qing Huan's heart. Those who didn't get married secretly regretted it, and some people began to express their thoughts.

Twelve boxes, even if the boxes are only half filled, are incomparable.

When it was time to send it to a small courtyard temporarily used as a new house in the outer courtyard.

After the dowry spread out.

Everyone's jaws dropped again.

Someone even patted Rong Xiao on the shoulder, saying that she came back with a gold ingot.

Rong Xiao didn't even look at it, just smiled: "This is for the lady from the madam."

Many people thought he was fake, and some people wondered if he could get more from Rong Chen.

Linglu and others did not leave after they were married off.

There are a few banquets outside.

Simply a few maids also set up a table inside.

Ling Lu said: "If Rong Xiao bullies you in the future, sister just tell me."

"What's the use of telling you." Xiang Nong also rarely joked.

Zero Lu snorted softly.

Youyuan smiled innocently.

Mancao lowered her head, with a sweet smile on the corner of her mouth.

In fact, she didn't have that much dowry, or more of it was silver and bank notes, which were kept in the dark. They were originally just a few boxes, but Rong Xiao bought the rest and quietly sent them to the main courtyard Come.

It was only last night that she found out about such a thing.

For this reason, Qing Huan still makes fun of her.

The day of the Hundred Days Banquet.

Grandma Wang is also here.

Qing Huan had invited her over early to help.

This day is not suitable for Aunt Liu.She is not happy with the members of the Yan family.Although Princess Danyang wanted to come over, she just showed her face and planned to sit inside.

Of course, there is something particular about it.

Rong Chen had whispered to her before.

"Biao sister-in-law, this will trouble you." Qing Huan said with an embarrassed smile: "I didn't know much about the rules, and Mama Xia was there to send and greet, but today's things are not allowed. I am not timid anymore."

Grandma Wang smiled and said: "This is not troublesome, family affairs, it should be. You know, I like Brother Jin so much that I want to take him back to raise him. Small nose and small eyes, he looks like a golden boy .”

Qing Huan pursed her lips and smiled.

Grandma Wang said: "I know you don't want to part with it, don't worry. Just stay with him for a while, and I will help you outside." During the Qionghua Banquet in the past two years, she has been responsible for a lot.

Grandma Wang is probably one of the few people who is familiar with the wives, wives and wives of all sizes in Beijing.

It would be best to invite her over.

And Wang Yi gave orders in private, and Grandma Wang naturally agreed.

Cheng Ao'er and Li Wanyin also came over early.

When Rong Jin woke up and was carried out, everyone in the room was stunned.

Because she just woke up, her cheeks were pink and her skin was white.

Even Qing Huan, a mother, looked at her and felt that her son was born really beautiful.

Cheng Ao'er suddenly covered her mouth and laughed.

Qing Huan looked at her puzzled.

Cheng Ao'er said: "In the past, everyone said that Jun'er looked like her cousin-in-law when she was young. In fact, I didn't believe it at that time, I just thought it was fake. This time when I saw Brother Jin, I had to believe it. "

Qing Huan was taken aback.

The people in the room suddenly roared with laughter.

Obviously everyone thought of it and felt the same.

Qing laughed and shook her head.

She had seen Rong Chen from six years ago, and she thought she was pretty good-looking. Although she wasn't cute, she was still handsome,

It's just that the battle in southern Xinjiang was a bit fierce.

But brother Jin is not afraid of this father at all, on the contrary he likes him very much.

It can be seen that it is the nature of father and son.

Later, the fourth girl also came.

As soon as he saw the door, he smiled and said: "Oh, I'm late. Hello, sister-in-law..." The fourth girl walked inside very familiarly, her face was full of spring breeze.

After that incident, it seems that life is getting better and better.

But at the same time, Wu Shi might feel a little uncomfortable.

With the appearance of the fourth girl, the atmosphere in the room stagnated slightly.

At this time Cheng Ao'er also smiled and said: "You are a sister-in-law and a sister, why did you come later than us. You really deserve a fight, come quickly, you will have to pay a few more drinks later." Today is a happy event , or not to freeze the atmosphere.Cheng Aoer naturally greeted the fourth girl as she thought about it.

The fourth girl sat nearby.

Grandma Wang said, "That's fine, I'll go out and check the situation."

Qing Huan sent to the door.

With Grandma Wang here, she doesn't need to worry about the arrangement of the female relatives. If she needs to come forward, she will naturally call someone over.

Qing Huan just sat back when she heard Fourth Miss ask: "Sister-in-law, do you know about Sixth Younger Sister?"

"Sixth sister?"

Qing Huan hadn't thought of her for a long time.

It is the third girl, and there are still a few times in the past.

It's just that each family has their own troubles. The third girl seems to seldom go out, and stays in the house more often.Many times the sisters came, but they did not see her.

I sent people to ask, and they all said that the house was busy, but they also knew that the third girl didn't have a housekeeper, so where could they go?
Totally obvious.

The fourth girl covered her mouth.

Qing Huan thought for a while and wanted to get closer.

The fourth girl said in a low voice: "I heard it's not very good." After a pause, she said: "I heard from my mother."

Second wife?
If the second wife could know, the Yan family would know too.

six girls...

It's He Jitong who is planning to get rid of the Yan family completely.

This time it was a good excuse.

The last time when the second girl was seriously ill, this time she completely ignored it and shirked it to his princess wife.

Qing Huan wanted to ask the Yan family how they reacted, but couldn't find a suitable reason.

The fourth girl didn't say anything more.

It seems that she just said such a sentence.

Seeing this, Li Wanyin and Cheng Ao'er started talking about jewelry.

"Qing Huan, that hairpin on your head is so pretty, where did you make it?"

Qing Huan touched the hairpin and smiled a little embarrassedly.

Cheng Ao'er turned his eyes and joked: "Could it be a gift from my cousin-in-law."

Qing Huan blushed even more.

Li Wanyin smiled and said: "If sister-in-law is envious, go back and talk about it, maybe my brother-in-law will give you a box of jewelry, we are not envious."

"Sister-in-law." Cheng Ao'er stomped her foot in refusal.

Li Wanyin couldn't stop laughing.

Qing Huan also laughed.

The topic in the room was changed in a timely manner.

The fourth girl snorted softly, at this time Xiang Nong hurried in from outside.

Qing Huan was turned against her body.

Li Wanyin pulled her sleeves before noticing.

The fourth girl was talking to Cheng Ao'er and the others on the face, but her ears were pricked up to hear the movement behind her.

"Prince... Congratulations..." He couldn't hear clearly.

At this time, Qing Huan had already walked back and said: "There are guests outside, I'll go and have a look, you guys chat first, if there is anything, just call someone."

Cheng Ao'er waved his hand: "Go, we don't need you to be so polite."

Qing Huan smiled back and walked back.

As soon as Xiang Nong saw her coming out, she immediately followed her: "At first it was only the people from the second prince's side, but later the people from the third and fourth princes came."

Are all here?
Qing Huan frowned, it seemed that there was only one waste prince missing.

Rong Chen had said before that colleagues would come, and he also said that this time, perhaps those who had never posted or had no relationship with him would also come to him.

But no matter how I think about it, I never thought that these princes would join in the fun together.

Qing Huan walked to the main hall.

A group of women were whispering to each other, and there were three boxes in the main room.

Qing Huan just entered.

The hall fell silent.

Jealousy, suspicion, and doubtful eyes came one after another.

"Cousin." Grandma Wang came over.

Qing Huan nodded, and looked around the room, seeing no one who should be the princes, her eyes immediately showed confusion.

"People are outside, these boxes are gifts." Grandma Wang said in a low voice.

Qing Huan then nodded.

"There is a person standing outside, who came with him, you go and ask about the situation."

After hearing what Qing Huan said, she saw someone outside out of the corner of her eye. She thought she came in a hurry and missed it because he didn't notice it.

Qing Huan was not in a hurry to leave.

Following Grandma Wang, I met several people, including the wife of the Minister of the Household Department and people from the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

Shannon took an opportunity to whisper something.

Qing Huan smiled and confessed: "The child started crying, I..."

"It's always inevitable. What does the child know? Let Mrs. Rong go there first. Let's talk about it later. I'm interested in the Mackay rouge gouache you mentioned."

"Yes, yes. I just want to see Mrs. Rong's skin is good and juicy."

Qing Huan nodded with a smile.

How old is he, but 16 years old.

And the youngest one in the house is also Grandma Wang, who is only 20 years old after all her efforts.

The others are all around 36 or 40 years old. They are all elders. If my skin is not good at my age, I have no choice but to do what I want when I get old.

But after they go back, they still have to send some rouge and gouache, whether they need it or not is their business.

Just make up your mind.

Qing Huan found an excuse to come out.

The boy who just probed his head came over: "Ma'am, what the master said was just the wishes of the princes, just accept it. You can't push anyone, can you?"

Qing Huan nodded.

I was glad that all the princes came this time.

Otherwise, it would be someone misunderstood which prince he had friendship with.

Even if some people think it was done on purpose, it doesn't rule out that it will be used as evidence.

Qing Huan stood for a while, thinking whether to go back to her own room or to the main room.

With Cheng Ao'er and Li Wanyin on Rong Jin's side, she is relieved for the time being.

What about the main room?

I'm afraid he would ask about the princes in the past.

After all, she has never heard of any child hosting a full moon wine or a hundred-day banquet, and several princes would congratulate her one after another.

"Ma'am, go ahead."

The little maid in front flew over and saw Qing Huan's eyes lit up.

Qing Huan was taken aback.

"There is an imperial decree ahead."

Qing Huan was stunned, but she didn't care about anything else, she hurriedly asked Xiang Nong, "Look at my clothes."

Shannon took a look and nodded.

Qing Huan walked forward with her skirt.

In his mind, he was entangled in the fact that in the future, everyone in the capital would know Brother Jin's name.

Not only the prince came, but even the imperial decree came.

Wait a minute, will even the deposed prince come over.

After all, it was just that he was not a prince, but he didn't say that he couldn't give gifts.

But I don't want to be really hit by what she said.
