Chapter 34 Miss Xue’s personal belongings(1/2)

King Wei really liked Xue Qingyin.

He only saw it once, but it made him never forget it.

As soon as Concubine Wan stopped her, he became even more rebellious and determined to get Xue Qingyin.

No, in order to appease Xue Qingyin, he directly sent the general manager of the palace, known as Jiang Butler.

This kind of pomp shows that King Wei attaches great importance to the Xue family girl.

And with all these rewards...

Not to mention a woman, even a eunuch like him would be moved by the sight of her.

But this thought suddenly came to a halt after Butler Jiang was introduced into the front hall.

Butler Jiang looked to his left: "But Aunt Cui in the princess's house?"

Look to the right again: "Manager Zhao of Duke Zhao's Mansion?"

Most of the domestic slaves in the Duke of Zhao's residence follow their master's surname, and this is the case for this steward.

Aunt Cui responded coldly.

Manager Zhao smiled and seemed very polite.

Butler Jiang couldn't help but murmur to himself, what kind of person is this Miss Xue...?

While Butler Jiang was thinking about it, Mrs. Xue led Xue Qingyin to the front hall.

Mrs. Xue often loses her temper in the house, and looks a bit vicious when she is stern. But today she was wearing purple clothes and smiling. When she came towards her, Butler Jiang was surprised.

What a beautiful woman.

Looking at the girl from the Xue family on the side, she has a slender waist, long legs, and a graceful figure. The aqua dress, with the ribbon around her waist lightly tied, is like the petals in full bloom, slowly revealing its beautiful color.

It is exactly the beauty of Mrs. Xue that she has completely inherited.

Although he is young, he already looks somewhat plump.

Housekeeper Jiang couldn't help but feel a little shaken when he saw someone like this who was used to King Wei's various concubines.

"Madam, Miss Xue." Butler Jiang turned sideways and said, "These are specially sent by our Highness."

Mrs. Xue was stunned.

Why did King Wei also send something to Qingyin?

Even if it was to arrange marriage for the eldest son of the Xu family, it shouldn't be the King of Wei who sent someone here!

Xue Qingyin on the side looked uninterested, and first looked at Aunt Cui according to the distance of the relationship: "Are you coming?"

"There is a post and a set of jewelry. Her Royal Highness specially picked it out yesterday and said it would be suitable for Miss Xue." Aunt Cui smiled and handed over another box.

The box opens.

Inside are silver hair combs, hairpins, earrings, sachets and other items.

They are all uniformly inlaid with crystals, which reflect sparkling light and reveal a light pink color.

The craftsmanship is quite beautiful, even far surpassing the craftsmanship of the modern jewelry Xue Qingyin bought in later generations.

Making a complete set of jewelry like this... shouldn't be cheap, right?

Butler Jiang breathed a sigh of relief and said hurriedly: "What a coincidence, His Highness also prepared a set of jewelry for the girl, made of jade."

Grandma Cui said calmly: "If it's not Caifei, it's far inferior to Crystal."

Butler Jiang stopped talking.

Xue Qingyin was a little confused.

Why are you still competing?

But I heard Manager Zhao stroking his beard and saying with a smile: "We don't have much jewelry in our house, we only have more of these things."

After the words fell, Manager Zhao took a box from the hands of the boy on the side and opened it in front of Xue Qingyin.

It was full of silver ingots, neatly arranged in four rows.

Who the hell could not like this?

Xue Qingyin's eyes suddenly lit up.

When Mrs. Xue saw this, all the words stuck in her throat.

What is this...?

Queuing up to give money to her daughter? Has Beijing ever seen such a scene?

Mrs. Xue was in a trance for a moment.

"As long as Miss Xue likes it." Manager Zhao almost burst out laughing. Look, they are still honest!

He followed up and said: "Miss Xue has a good temper, and our prince is very fond of her when he sees her."

Butler Jiang suddenly turned his head.

Mrs. Xue also looked stern.

"It's a pity that our young father-in-law is not so lucky."

As soon as these words came out, countless people breathed a sigh of relief.

"In this life, I'm afraid the Duke will never be able to have a granddaughter as cute and well-behaved as Miss Xue." Manager Zhao said again.

Mrs.

"The Duke was thinking that if Miss Xue is willing to be our young master's goddaughter, wouldn't everyone be happy?" Manager Zhao finally said the purpose of today.

Butler Jiang thought to himself, couldn't you fucking finish it in one breath? This made my heart very nervous.

"This..." Mrs. Xue was still a little confused.

Why are you suddenly going to have sex with the Duke of Zhao? How did you get to this point?

Thinking back to the day when someone came from the Duke's Mansion, she was still afraid that Qing Yin would be wronged.

Xue Qingyin was actually also surprised.

She thought for a while and said, "You have to ask my father if he agrees with this."

My biological father isn't that good anyway.

She doesn't mind having more fathers.

But she was afraid that her biological father would be very concerned about it.

Manager Zhao smiled and said: "The Duke will go to see Mr. Xue to discuss this matter. As long as Miss Xue is willing to nod, then everything will be easy to discuss."

Xue Qingyin said simply and neatly: "Okay!"

The corners of Mrs. Xue's mouth couldn't help but twitch.

This girl... doesn't Yixin like her father the most? How could she just accept a new one at the same time?

Manager Zhao didn't care what other people thought. When Xue Qingyin agreed, he left the silver ingot and went back happily.

Aunt Cui left her post and jewelry and took the first step.

In the end, only Butler Jiang was left...

Mrs. Xue declined the gift from King Wei.

Butler Jiang couldn't help but asked, "Why is Madam so unreasonable?" It would be fine if he was the only one here.

Three of them came, but he was rejected. What kind of glory did Butler Jiang have with King Wei in the past? Naturally, he couldn't swallow this now.

Mrs. Xue was very firm: "It is precisely because the things are valuable that I dare not accept them. Qingyin has not yet left the cabinet, so it is inevitable that people will gossip."

Butler Jiang smiled, unable to hide the arrogance in his eyes: "You might as well tell Mrs. Xue the truth that His Highness has fallen in love with the eldest girl in your house and wants to marry her."

Mrs. Xue vaguely guessed it, but the words still shocked her.

On the one hand, she was happy that her daughter was liked by others, but on the other hand, she felt terrified.

There were too many women in Prince Wei's house.

How could she let Qingyin suffer?

Mrs. Xue just said: "His Highness's marriage is not something I can just nod and agree to. I'm afraid it still depends on His Majesty's wishes."

Butler Jiang said again: "It doesn't matter, our Highness has already gone to tell His Majesty."

Mrs. Xue insisted: "Then we will wait for our parents' orders and the matchmaker's words."

When Butler Jiang saw that she was unable to get in, he reluctantly suppressed the anger on his face and had no choice but to turn around and leave.

Mrs. Xue didn't know why, but she felt a little worried.

You won’t anger King Wei, right?

But after thinking about it, Qingyin wouldn't let him forget her like this, right?

But he said that the housekeeper Jiang did not leave immediately, but stayed outside the house for a while.
To be continued...
