Ruan's wife is pregnant
Chapter 91 Birthday Gifts
Chapter 91 Birthday Gifts
"Perhaps, you'll know when you go." Gu Jinxi smiled.
Before the old lady's birthday, all the things that should be busy were done. Ruan Cailing drank and chatted with Gu Jinxi in the attic every day. The life was very comfortable, but every day Mu Bai would come to report to Gu Jinxi about various things in the capital. In this case, the others don't matter.
But only the matter of Ji Jingyan and Xie Qingyuan attracted Ruan Cailing's attention.
She never expected that Ji Jingyan really fell in love with Xie Qingyuan, and she had already told King Ping that she wanted to marry Xie Qingyuan.
"What did King Ping say?" Ruan Cailing asked Gu Jinxi.
Gu Jinxi was lowering his head to help Ruan Cailing peel apples, when he heard Ruan Cailing's words, he raised his head and glanced at her.
Prince Xuan's son would not be able to do small things like peeling apples, but Qing Rui went to help Jingshu, and Mu Bai, an old man, had never done such a job, so Gu Jinxi had to condescend Gui personally helped Ruan Cailing cut it.
The movements of his hands were very neat, Ruan Cailing rested his chin with one hand and watched the flowing movements of his hands, Gu Jinxi didn't seem to hear what he said just now, and did not reply to Ruan Cailing.
"Jin Xi, you don't look like you are the first to peel an apple! You are better than Qing Rui!"
The apple peel has not been broken from the beginning to the end, and it is connected by a thread.
Gu Jinxi cut a piece and brought it to Ruan Cailing's mouth. Ruan Cailing bit it in. Gu Jinxi said, "When I was at home, I would help my grandmother peel apples. Practice makes perfect."
It turned out to be the old lady and princess!
There are only two days until the old lady's birthday, and Ruan Cailing suddenly remembered that the gift for the old lady was not ready yet!
In the past, when attending any birthday banquets, Uncle Fan in the mansion would help prepare presents, one for Ruan Qi and Ruan Su, one for Ruan Cailing and Ruan Xuchen, and finally a big one for the Duke of Dingguo.
But this time, since the old concubine invited Ruan Cailing to go, she thought about it, she had to choose in person to be appropriate.
"I have something to go out for a while." Thinking of this, Ruan Cailing got up to bid farewell to Gu Jinxi.
"Will the son follow?" Mu Bai asked.
The capital is not peaceful recently.
On the day when the wedding banquet in General Jingkang’s mansion ended, although the third prince was picked up by his people, he was still injured, and the news of Mu Yizuo’s assassination had reached the emperor. The emperor was furious and ordered Dali Temple to find the murderer as soon as possible .
The murderer must have been lost, but Gu Jinxi saw Mu Yizuo in the box of the Yanhua Building late at night a few days ago.
He didn't look hurt at all.
It seems that this is also Mu Yizuo's scheme.
During this time, Ruan Cailing stayed with Gu Jinxi in the attic, unless Ruan Xuchen and Gu Jinxi had something to talk about and Ruan Cailing needed to leave, otherwise she was here except when she was sleeping.
Gu Jinxi was also worried that Ruan Cailing would run into danger if she always went out.
After he was injured, the news that he stayed in Dingguo's mansion overnight spread, and people from all directions were staring at Dingguo's mansion. Although Ruan Cailing was not the only one, she was the most dangerous person in the entire Dingguo's mansion.
Ruan Su's stay at home, there is no danger.
And Ruan Qi and Ruan Xuchen both have martial arts, and there are countless masters by their side.
"You send someone to follow secretly, don't let Ruan Ruan find out."
"Yes."
Ruan Cailing didn't like to be followed when she went out, unless she was going to do business, she would bring Jiang Chen to support the scene, otherwise she would only bring a maid like Qing Rui.
Today, Qing Rui and Jing Shu were busy, she got into the carriage and left alone.
The carriage picked up Su Wanyue on the way.
"Why do you want to go out today? You have stayed at home for more than half a month, fascinated by watching piano, chess, calligraphy and painting?" Su Wanyue teased Ruan Cailing as soon as she got in the car.
But Ruan Cailing's headache is the gift for the old lady and princess.
"What do you think I should give?"
All the officials and their families will attend the old lady’s birthday banquet, and Lord Su, Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, will also bring Su Wanyue and her daughter to attend. Su Wanyue said that the gifts at home have already been prepared. There are several boxes of treasures, not to mention all kinds of tonics such as precious thousand-year-old ginseng and snow lotus.
These things are estimated to be prepared in every household.
Therefore, if Ruan Cailing wanted to choose the presents personally, she could not give these things.
"Why don't you go to Yancui Building to see the jewelry? Didn't the boss of Yancui Building buy a new batch of jewelry recently?" Su Wanyue asked Ruan Cailing.
When mentioning Yancui Tower, Ruan Cailing thought of Ji Jingyan.
Thinking about Xie Qingyuan again made my head hurt even more.
She covered her forehead with one hand, and waved the other hand, "Forget it, when I mention Yancui Tower, I think of Ji Jingyan. The recent news about Ji Jingyan and Xie Qingyuan really makes me irritated."
"Our family already knows, and my father even asked me what happened to Princess Anyang and Xie Qingyuan."
Even Su Benyan knows?
According to the information Jiang Chen inquired, Su Benyan had a good relationship with King Ping.
It was probably what King Ping and Su Benyan said!
"Today, I've heard people around my elder brother say that Ji Jingyan has already told King Ping that she will not marry Xie Qingyuan!"
Su Wanyue lifted the curtain and looked outside. It was bustling outside at this time, and the carriage was moving very slowly, otherwise it would easily hurt people.
As soon as the curtain was lifted, she saw the piano room where Ruan Cailing went to practice the piano. Su Wanyue patted Ruan Cailing's thigh and said, "Hey, isn't this the piano room where you learned the piano? Shen Yunyun is still learning the piano recently?"
Speaking of this, after returning from General Jingkang's Mansion, Shen Yunyun was quiet.
After eating and learning the piano, there was no fuss. Ruan Cailing followed Su Wanyue's gaze and looked outside, and said, "It seems that I am learning the piano. Recently, I leave early in the morning and come back at night. Without saying a word, my mother even asked me what happened to Shen Yunyun."
"Do you think Shen Yunyun and Xie Qingyuan..." Su Wanyue stared at Ruan Cailing slyly.
Ruan Cailing remembered that she had never told anyone about the relationship between Shen Yunyun and Xie Qingyuan, and that Jiang Chen had discovered that Xie Qingyuan appeared in Shanyun Pavilion in the middle of the night.
She sighed, "Xie Qingyuan and Shen Yunyun have been together for a long time!"
"Ah!" Su Wanyue was surprised and covered her mouth.
Although she is a martial arts practitioner, she is still a lady, and she must feel shy and embarrassed when she hears such things.
"Jiang Chen once found out that Xie Qingyuan went in and out of Shanyun Pavilion in the middle of the night. Do you think Xie Qingyuan just went to drink tea?"
"Then why is Xie Qingyuan still with Anyang?" Su Wanyue asked simply.
Ruan Cailing glanced at Su Wanyue, but said nothing.
What else could it be?No matter how much Xie Qingyuan likes Shen Yunyun, this person will not help Xie Qingyuan's future in any way. Naturally, it is not as good as the luck that she and Ji Jingyan can bring to Xie Qingyuan. What's more, she doesn't think Xie Qingyuan I like Shen Yunyun.
Or maybe he is greedy for Shen Yunyun's body, or maybe he thinks that this person is helpful to his various schemes, anyway, he just uses it.
After using it, it will be kicked aside.
She died too early in her previous life. If she can hold on for a while, maybe she can still see the scene of Xie Qingyuan and Shen Yunyun dog-biting dog!
Forget it, Ruan Cailing said, "Don't take the topic away! I'm thinking about giving something to the old lady and concubine now! What do you want to do!"
"Oh yes, I forgot, then you can't send gold, silver and precious stones, and you can't give nourishing medicines, do you have an idea?"
Ruan Cailing, "..." If I had an idea, why would I ask you to help me!
"Stop!" Ruan Cailing shouted to the outside.
Appeal!
The carriage stopped slowly in the middle of the road. Ruan Cailing got out of the carriage with her skirt in her hands. Although Su Wanyue was puzzled, she still followed Ruan Cailing. Me later."
"Yes."
The carriage left, only Ruan Cailing and Su Wanyue stood in the middle, Su Wanyue turned her head and asked, "What do you mean?"
What can be seen in the carriage?She had come out to look for attention. She had been sitting in the carriage, and the coachman didn't know which direction to go, so she might as well walk slowly by herself.
"Look around."
The two walked along the street, Ruan Cailing's tired legs began to ache, but she still couldn't find a suitable gift. The old lady and princess don't lack for anything at this age and experience, and all the gifts are from the heart, not to mention, the old lady The princess is Gu Jinxi's grandmother, and she hopes to do her part.
But what should I give?
"I think that giving anything is more thoughtful than doing it yourself!" Su Wanyue took Ruan Cailing to find a teahouse to sit down and rest.
After drinking half a pot of tea, Ruan Cailing let out a long breath. When she looked up, she suddenly saw the small house opposite the teahouse. This area was full of bustling markets, but there were no crowds in the low house opposite the teahouse, but Ruan Cailing could see it at a glance You can see the gorgeous cloth clothes hanging at the door of the low house.
"Xiao Er, what's that place?" Ruan Cailing called to stop Xiao Er, pointing at the opposite side.
Xiaoer was busy, and was taken aback by Ruan Cailing's grab. He turned around and looked at the opposite side, "That's right! That's the most famous Xiufang in our capital."
"The most famous one? But Yunxiufang?" Su Wanyue asked.
Xiaoer gave Su Wanyue a thumbs up, "This young lady is very knowledgeable! This Yunxiufang has a lot of background! She has been making clothes for all the ladies in the court!"
So it turned out, Ruan Cailing let Xiao Er leave after thanking her, she rolled her eyes, and suddenly a very good attention appeared.
"Let's go!" Ruan Cailing slapped the money on the table, pulled Su Wanyue, got up and walked towards the opposite side.
"Miss, please stop, we can't go inside!" As soon as we arrived at the gate of Yunxiufang, we were stopped by a woman dressed as an embroidered lady.
Just as Su Wanyue was about to reveal her identity, Ruan Cailing stopped her. She bowed softly to Xiu Niang, "Do you have ready-made clothes here? Older people wear them?"
Xiu Niang looked Ruan Cailing and Su Wanyue up and down.
