After being expelled from the palace, she returned with her cub and amazed the whole city

A girl said: "Sister Cui's fate matches that of the emperor. This was said by the right minister. My father heard it with his own ears in the court that day."

"That can't be true. Don't mention it again. My cousin will misunderstand if he hears it."

Cui Yudie felt a little guilty. There was no hope of entering the palace, but she was also unwilling to do so.

My father had all betrothed each of the young talents he had chosen, and he always thought highly of himself. If he randomly married a loser who had accomplished nothing, he might as well comb his hair and go to Peach Blossom Temple.

After finally choosing a distant cousin who was already an official, he knew everything about her. He was not as good as Long Zhang Fengzi, but he was also a talented person. Cui Yudie was not filled with joy, but she was willing to listen to her mother and agree to the marriage.

A girl did not agree with Cui Yudie's words and muttered: "Master Huiyuan has the ability to predict the future. He doesn't talk nonsense."

"Yes, the emperor invited him to the palace to tell fortunes and read the horoscope. He spoke like a living Bodhisattva. The future queen's destiny will definitely be the one that matches him."

Cui Yudie was moved by the words of several girls.

No one knows her true destiny, and people outside only think that her destiny is the one the emperor is looking for.

If the emperor cannot find a more suitable person, is there still a glimmer of hope for him?

"If the emperor really has a son, the position of prince is gone. Even if he enters the palace and gives birth to a prince, it is just a stepping stone to become a prince." A girl said disapprovingly.

The girl's words immediately attracted rebuttals from the other ladies.

"That's not what I said. If you give birth to a dragon son for the emperor, you will be a prince after all. You can also be a concubine. Your life of glory and wealth will be guaranteed."

"Even if I can see the emperor's fairy face often in the palace, I will be satisfied."

A girl couldn't help but laugh and said: "Miss Xu, come on, if you really enter the palace, some people will be satisfied. They are not all trying to compete for favors, hoping to monopolize the emperor's favor."

Seeing that everyone was talking a little boldly, Cui Yudie raised her hand to interrupt everyone, "Sisters, let's enjoy the flowers. Tomorrow we will each draw a picture to see who draws the most beautiful peach blossoms and keep it in the nunnery as a souvenir. ”

A girl took over the conversation, "Of course it goes without saying that Sister Cui has the best painting skills."

It feels good to be praised. Cui Yudie smiled and said modestly: "It's okay. All the sisters here today are all-rounders. Don't hide anything."

Jiang Shuyue pulled Qiu Ju's sleeve and prepared to leave.

At this time, someone mentioned her name. Qiu Ju lowered her voice and said, "Miss, they are gossiping behind my back."

Jiang Shuyue stopped and heard Cui Yudie say: "I really admire Jiang Shuyue. She can not only open a restaurant to make money, but also open a medical clinic to help the world, and she also knows so many things that ordinary people have never seen."

As soon as she finished speaking, a girl echoed: "No, the business of Jinxiufang on Wutong Street is so good. I queued several times to buy a piece of cloth, but I don't know what she doesn't know? Hey! People are more annoying than others.”

"My father said that she has gained respect for the emperor among foreign envoys. I heard that the emperor treats her differently, and I don't know what tricks she used to be charming. The position of queen may belong to him."

"I've also heard that she was taken into the palace by the emperor's guards more than once. She must have been favored by the emperor a long time ago."

"The Emperor is also a person with seven emotions and six desires. With her appearance, it would be strange for the Emperor not to be moved by her."

Seeing everyone's excitement. Cui Yudie comforted everyone at the right time.

"Time is indeed destiny. Sisters, don't be discouraged. The harem can't only accommodate one queen. If the emperor chooses a draft, I support you all to participate. No matter what, there is always a chance to give it a try."

With a few words, Cui Yudie successfully directed the fire towards Jiang Shuyue.

Qiu Ju was so angry that she rushed over to argue with them. Jiang Shuyue quickly pulled her away.

I walked too fast and stepped on a dead branch on the ground, which made a crisp "click" sound.

The girls on the opposite side heard the noise and ran away, only to see a piece of skirt disappearing into the sea of ​​flowers in an instant.

When the two of them walked away, Qiu Ju looked back and said, "They say she is a noble girl in the capital, but they all gossip behind her back like a talkative woman, and they have learned their education like a dog's belly."

"Miss, it seems that Miss Cui didn't slander you, but her words were just to make you hateful."

Jiang Shuyue smiled faintly, "What did you say just now that the emperor is good? Your young lady has not done anything yet, which makes people jealous, but I don't care, your young lady does not rely on them to live her life, and she talks about others. , love so well.”

Jiang Shuyue was born in two generations, and her mind was naturally broader than that of ordinary people.

It’s perfectly normal for a group of teenage girls to get together and gossip.

As for their harsh words, I can only say that they are uneducated.

Looking back on the past few days, she had indeed been too popular, but this was not the result she wanted. However, the tree was so big that it attracted the wind, and she couldn't hide it even if she wanted to.

Seeing that her young lady was not hurt by those girls' words, Qiu Ju had no choice but to shut up.

When the two found Du Yutong and Zhan Shuzhen, they were very busy helping the two peach-picking aunts pick peach blossoms in the peach forest.

Seeing Jiang Shuyue and the others passing by, she quickly waved and shouted, "Sister Jiang, come here and help us."

"Auntie, are you doing rouge or something?" Jiang Shuyue walked over, picked up a peach blossom and put it into the basket on the ground.

An aunt smiled and replied: "The dark red ones can be used to make rouge, and the pink ones can be used to make peach blossom stuffing."

During the chat, Jiang Shuyue learned that in addition to donations from everyone, the aunts in the nunnery also made rouge and gouache in exchange for money.

Only a few of the aunts' families still send money.

As the peach blossom wine sold for a high price in Juxian Pavilion, the aunts also planned to learn how to make peach blossom wine.

Jiang Shuyue immediately decided to go talk to her aunt in charge tonight about peach blossom stuffing.

Jiang Shuyue and others helped pick peach blossoms, while Qiu Ju took the other two girls to get their luggage.

The place where Gao Mu and Du Fu's boy stayed was not far away. In order for Qiu Ju to find him quickly, Gao Mu arranged the room and stood at the intersection.

When he saw his wife coming, he quickly went to greet her.

"Madam, has the place been settled?"

Gao Mu was about to reach out to pull his wife, but when he saw another maid behind Qiu Ju, he quickly took his hand back.

"Ahem!"

Gao Mu coughed twice to hide his embarrassment.

Qiu Ju said: "That's it. We live in the back courtyard, which is very close to the back door. If you want to inform the lady of something, you can ask the aunts who come in and out at the back door to pass the message."

Gao Mu glanced at Qiu Ju's belly and said, "It's heavy, I'll send you there."

"Okay, I'll take you there to know the way."

The three of them followed Gao Mu into the farmyard, took the baggage and walked back.
