Reborn Concubine Queen

Chapter 246 Your Highness Proposes Marriage (2)

"Qing'er greets grandmother, elder aunt, and second aunt."

The old lady Meng said with a smile on her face, "Qing'er, please greet your aunt Gao."

Shi Yiqing corrected his posture and performed all the courtesy: "Qing'er pays homage to Aunt Gao, and may Auntie be well."

Mrs. Gao looked up and down Shi Yiqing with a smile, seeing that she was outstanding in appearance, but she didn't know if she was seriously ill or something, and she looked a little haggard: "You are Miss Jiu? You really are a wonderful person, I am so happy to see her."

The house is full of joy.The eldest lady smiled and said: "If you want to say that among the dozen or so girls in our house, Miss Jiu is really the favorite. When she came back from the neighboring county, the old lady liked it so much just by looking at it. Lead the chanting of the scriptures and bow to the Buddha."

The old lady was upset when she heard that the lady mentioned the matter in the neighboring county, she glanced at the lady, and said with words: "It's just a girl, Mrs. Gao boasted a few words, and you can't help but say it." If there are so many, wouldn’t it be cowardly, and wouldn’t it be a joke to spread the word.”

Mrs. Gao hurriedly smiled and said: "The old matriarch's words are outrageous, but I regard Qing'er as my own daughter, so what if I praised this girl in front of me, is it possible that I can still treat her as a girl?" Spread the word like something happened?"

The old lady said yes with a smile, she was very surprised, but she didn't show it on her face.

"This is Qi'er from the third room, right?" Mrs. Gao smiled and looked at Qi'er who was standing obediently beside Shi Yiqing, "He has grown up so much in a blink of an eye, come quickly, and ask Auntie to take a good look at it."

Seeing that neither Shi Yiqing nor the old lady objected, Qi'er spoke frankly in front of Mrs. Gao, and said softly, "I met Aunt Gao, hello, Aunt Gao."

Mrs. Gao smiled in amazement: "Sure enough, he came out of the mansion gate, so he understands the rules. We Qi'er saw me as an aunt, so I couldn't help but express it." He raised his hand and took the golden lock from the girl and gave it to Qi'er. Come on, "Come on, Auntie gave it to you, Auntie will bring it for you."

Shi Yiqing raised his eyes and saw that the old lady was also in a daze. Knowing that this was strange, she turned her eyes and smiled and said, "How is this possible? Qi'er is still young, so he can't accept such a heavy gift!"

Mrs. Gao smiled calmly: "Qi'er calls me aunt, and I will really regard him as my nephew. Qing'er, please don't refuse, lest you hurt my heart."

Seeing that Shi Yiqing couldn't refuse, the old lady and others didn't object, so she hurriedly took Qi'er's hand and said, "Qi'er, thank auntie for the golden lock."

"Thank you auntie."

Mrs. Gao heard that Shi Yiqing occasionally had a cough, and asked with concern: "Qing'er's complexion is not very good, but he got a cold last night? You have to be more careful, don't rely on yourself to be young, just stand up, and then don't be ill. Seriously ill. Did you take medicine when you came out?"

Shi Yiqing saw that Mrs. Gao was becoming more and more attentive, and didn't understand what it meant, so she could only bite the bullet and smile: "Returning to Auntie, Qing'er had this problem before, and even asked the doctor to see it a few days ago. It's nothing serious, and it was gone when she came out. After drinking the medicine, the strength of the medicine will come up after thinking about it for a while."

"That's good." Mrs. Gao laughed while holding a towel, "You are young, I don't know that when I was a girl, there was a girl in my family who had some minor problems. Later, relying on her youth, she persevered, and finally made a problem. It can only be supported by medicine."

The second lady followed Mrs. Gao's words and said: "No, Qing'er, you should pay more attention when you come to greet the old lady this morning and evening, remember to wear more clothes, and don't catch cold again."

The eldest lady put down the teacup in her hand, said with a smile: "Look, Qing'er, so many people care about you, you have to cherish yourself." Seeing Shi Yiqing got up and thanked them one by one, she paused, and continued, "By the way, I heard about the third girl from the He family in the east of the city, who is going to be the third young master of my sister-in-law's family. It is said that she is seriously ill, and the illness is coming on urgently. I'm afraid it will get worse now."

As he spoke, he sighed: "It's a pity, such a girl in the Mood for Love."

Shi Yiqing's eyelids twitched, feeling vaguely uneasy.

Mrs. Gao glanced at Shi Yiqing as if she had nothing to say: "Hey, my sister is talking about the third girl from the He family. Chang'er wanted to tell me about her in-laws when she didn't return to Beijing, so I asked the girl to take a look. I said she was sick, so I didn't agree, and there was no news about her after that. Why, news about this girl got out?"

The eldest lady wiped the corners of her mouth with her handkerchief, and said: "The He family went to the doctor indiscriminately when they were sick. Seeing that the girl is not well, they are looking for doctors all over the world. Can you not spread the news? By the way, sister-in-law's brother You're not too young, why don't you marry a wife?"

Mrs. Gao smiled and said: "I wanted to tell him about a marriage, but I didn't expect his wings to be stiff, and he didn't like what I was looking for, so it was delayed."

"I heard that the emperor intentionally agreed to the marriage between Princess Shanghe and the third young master?"

"Where did my sister hear the gossip? It's nothing." Mrs. Gao laughed hurriedly, "Let's not say that I am not worthy of the princess, even if the princess is willing to condescend to marry, that bastard has not come home for many years Let's see, this princess married here, didn't she tell her to stay in the empty boudoir and wronged her?"

The eldest lady raised her eyebrows in surprise: "If it was before, I was afraid that the young couple would be separated, but now the third young master should not be transferred to the military department to take up a post, isn't it just to pave the way for the marriage and marriage with the princess."

Mrs. Gao frowned, and said with a smile: "As the saying goes, accompanying the emperor is like accompanying a tiger. Even those cabinet scholars don't know what the emperor is thinking. We are just trapped in the room all day long talking Talking, how would you know? I don’t think I will have this kind of blessing when I come to my place, I just hope that my new daughter-in-law will come in and give birth to a fat grandson for me to raise, and I will be satisfied.”

The eldest lady smiled with a complicated expression, holding the teacup and did not speak.

The wives in the room were chatting about anecdotes and strange events in the capital to pass the time. A girl came in from outside and said with a happy face: "Old madam, eldest madam, second madam, a happy event has arrived."

The eldest lady hurriedly asked: "What kind of happy event?"

The girl smiled and said: "The old man just sent a boy back to report to the old lady, saying that the emperor saw that the new year was approaching, and he intended to seal up the harem. The empress is kind, please seal it up for all the concubines. The emperor approved it, and made a new book. , Said that Miss Nine and Miss Seven of the Xiao family were all written in!"

The old lady was shocked and asked: "What did you say, say it again!"

The girl had no choice but to say it again according to the original words, and finally continued: "Old lady, our Ninth Miss is now the serious Princess Yuanhe, and a relative of the emperor!"
