The concubine is enchanting: the favorite princess

Chapter 595 Return to the original owner
Prime Minister Gu's wife seldom goes out on weekdays, and she will not gather together all day to have fun like other famous ladies and official wives.Most of them are female red embroidery, or playing with flowers and plants in the garden.So when he heard that Feng Yao was coming, he was also happy, and even greeted him out of the middle gate himself.

"Yao'er, why are you so idle and want to come to see me?" Mrs. Gu has a good impression of Feng Yao, and she is a close friend of Mrs. Mo, so when they met, they took Feng Yao's hand affectionately and held each other together. Go inside.

Feng Yao deliberately said: "Yao'er is here to give Madam Gu a gift."

"Gifts?" Mrs. Gu said softly with a smile on her face, "If it's the rouge or the braids you made by yourself, then I won't be polite. If it's other things, I don't dare to accept them. You should know Mr. Gu." Except for some small things that are reciprocated, no gifts are allowed to enter the door."

Feng Yao hurriedly waved his hands and said, "That's Yao'er's wrong words, it's not a gift, it's returning the property to its original owner, okay?"

Mrs. Gu's eyes were full of doubts, she pushed Feng Yao's shoulder and said, "Yao'er, what kind of charades are you playing with me? Could it be that when I was drinking that day, my handkerchief fell off?" This is just an introduction, but Gu Madam's handkerchief was not lost, she was just joking with Feng Yao.

Feng Yao took a gift box from the attendant maid, held it in both hands and said: "This is not a gift, but it is very expensive, let's take a look in the room."

Mrs. Gu looked familiar at the gift box, but the gift box was not so expensive, it was not custom-made for any treasure, so she didn't know what was inside.

In the main hall, Feng Yao and Mrs. Gu went in.And those two servant girls who followed Feng Yao retreated at the door.

The two servant girls that Feng Yao is following now are the two little servant girls who accompany Mrs. Mo.Madam Mo originally planned to let Min'er follow Feng Yao, but Feng Yao felt that he already had Xiaoqing by his side, and Min'er was clever and Madam Mo was used to her service, so naturally she couldn't win people's love, so she just chose These two carry.

But these two maids are still young, and they are only second-class maids. It is okay to serve tea and water at ordinary times. Once the master has something to say, they will consciously step aside.

So only Feng Yao and Mrs. Gu were sitting in the main hall, and one of Mrs. Gu's dowry girls was serving beside her, and she was a close friend of Mrs. Gu's, so she didn't shy away from it.

Only then did Feng Yao put the gift box on the table, pushed it towards Mrs. Gu, and motioned for Mrs. Gu to open it herself.

Madam Gu looked at the gift box, then at Feng Yao, shook her head with a wry smile, and pushed the gift box back.That's because Mrs. Gu is honest and honest. If she can't avoid this kind of wealth and gifts, she won't get them, so as not to ruin Mr. Gu's reputation.

Seeing Mrs. Gu's politeness and abiding by the etiquette, Feng Yao felt admiration for a while.Smiling, she stood up and opened the lid of the box, holding the gift box with both hands and sending it to Mrs. Gu, asking her to take a look at the contents of the box first.

Mrs. Gu was taken aback when she saw the contents in the box, and then said with a trembling voice: "This white jade Guanyin statue, isn't it..."

The box contained nothing but the white jade Guanyin statue that Mrs. Gu had donated to the Tieqiying Bazaar.During the charity sale, Mrs. Gu was also present, and she really did not expect that a seemingly ordinary Guanyin statue could be sold for 5000 taels.And everyone present at the time knew that the one who bought this Guanyin statue was a thin and handsome man with apricot eyes, why is it in Feng Yao's hands now?
Seeing Mrs. Gu's eyes, Feng Yao explained slowly: "That young master met me once, and I accidentally saved him once. Maybe it was to repay me, so I bought this at the charity sale. A white jade Guanyin statue. But then it was sent back to Mofu, so the things are still with me. Today Yaoer came to return the things to the original owner."

After finishing speaking, Feng Yao put the white jade Guanyin statue by Madam Gu's hand, and said: "Yao'er knows that this is Madam Gu's dowry. Since it is a family heirloom, it should be left to future generations It can be passed down from generation to generation, and it can be regarded as a blessing left by the ancestors. Now Mrs. Gu should not refuse Yaoer, because Yaoer didn't spend a penny for this Guanyin statue, it was just a favor."

"This, this... Although this Avalokitesvara statue is a family heirloom from my natal family, it is not a rare treasure. When it was sent to Yaoer, it was a sincere donation. How can it be taken back?" Reasonable. Since the thing came back, it means that Yaoer is destined for it, so Yaoer should keep it."

Madam Gu looked at the Avalokitesvara statue, although she was still a little bit reluctant, but she also knew that there was no reason to take back what was given out, so she naturally refused to take it.

Feng Yao shook his head and said: "Madam Gu only knows one thing, but not the other. This Guanyin statue is not destined to be with Yaoer, and Yaoer dare not accept it. Yaoer also said it just now, but in fact it is Madam Gu A share of blessings from the ancestors to future generations, so this thing really must not be kept by Mrs. Gu."

Speaking of this, Feng Yao said to the girl next to Mrs. Gu: "Please light a candle for me." Because it was Mrs. Gu's dowry girl, Feng Yao was naturally a little more polite, and added a "Please." "Character.

That girl was also an honest and obedient person, she said "I dare not be that", and immediately followed Feng Yao's wishes to light a candle and come over.Feng Yao pouted towards the door again, the girl understood and immediately went to close the door.

But that girl is indeed an honest person, she walked out by herself when the door was closed in the past, and closed the door outside, she should still be guarding the door.

In this way, even Mrs. Gu became a little curious.He stared at Feng Yao not knowing what she was going to do.

Feng Yao didn't say anything, just like what he did in front of Mrs. Mo and the others, he baked the fragrant wax under the base of the white jade Guanyin statue until it softened, and took it off.Then he took out the white silk bag from inside.

Mrs. Gu stared in surprise, this thing is her dowry, and she has been by her side for 20 years, she never thought that there is something hidden in it?But when Fengyao exposed the night pearl inside, Mrs. Gu only felt that the room was filled with brilliance, surrounded by precious light, she was even more surprised and speechless.

Feng Yao had expected Madam Gu to have such a reaction. In fact, Madam Gu was not the only one. Madam Mo and the others were equally shocked when they saw this luminous pearl.

Feng Yao directly stuffed the night pearl into Mrs. Gu's hand, and said with a smile: "Such a treasure, Yao'er would not dare to swallow it privately. The value of this thing is not the treasure itself, but an inheritance left by your mother's family. It is priceless.”
