307. Chapter 307 Take the initiative to form an alliance [05]
Qiu Rong couldn't put it down as soon as she saw it, "Sister Fangqing, the eldest lady is really exquisite and considerate."
Fangqing pursed her lips and smiled, "You can use it if you like, just return it to me after you've used it. I also want to see your bright work. People say that Aunt He is good at needlework."
"That's not as good as the eldest lady." Qiu Rong said modestly. Aunt He's needlework is good, but it is indeed not as good as the eldest lady who attracts so much attention during the Flower Festival.
Although the concubines and aunts could not go, they had also heard about it. The maids and ladies-in-law had rumors that they had noses and eyes, and they all knew about it.
After saying a few words, Fangqing said with concern: "What's wrong with Miss Fourth? What's wrong is somewhere."
Fangqing immediately said what she was a little frightened about.
Fangqing said a few words to her, expressed concern, and Qiu Rong left.
After seeing off Qiurong, Fangqing went to the backyard to meet Shen Mingzhu.
Shen Mingzhu was sitting on the swing eating preserved peaches, wandering around and yawning.
Fangqing repeated Qiu Rong's words.
Shen Mingzhu smiled and said: "Aunt He is asking us to discuss something."
Cuiyan said in surprise: "How do you know, Miss? Qiu Rong didn't say anything either."
Biyun smiled and explained to her, "Qiu Rong must have said that there was less money, thinking that Aunt Fang and the others were deliberately scorning them. Aunt He was uneasy and wanted to ask the eldest lady. After all, the two of them can make decisions together.
. But she was too embarrassed to look for her openly. After all, she usually kept herself safe and did not interact with each other. If she came all of a sudden, it would only arouse the madam's suspicion. So she asked Qiu Rong to take advantage of the opportunity to say that the fourth lady was sick.
.”
If the fourth young lady is sick and the eldest lady knows about it, she will always go to express her sister's concern.
In the past, Shen Mingzhu could send a girl to visit and give something away. Now, if Shen Mingzhu is interested, she can go by herself.
Aunt He is not like Shen Mingzhu who can leave the house at will. If she wants to leave the house, she must tell the lady and the master, get permission, and order the vehicle to go out.
So she had to do this if she wanted to see Shen Mingzhu.
Aunt He is smart and cautious, and Shen Mingzhu likes her very much.
However, Shen Mingzhu didn't want to go in person, because she didn't want Aunt He to think that she was eager to cooperate with her, and she would have to waste her words when the time came.
She said to Biyun: "Pack some gifts, medicinal materials, and a few bottles of Bohe pills, and go see Miss Fourth for me. If Aunt He asks you, just say that you are my tongue and can make decisions for me.
.”
Biyun naturally knew that she had discussed it with Shen Mingzhu before, and she went to prepare it immediately.
It was night, in the evening, Biyun took a little girl with him and asked her to carry the gift and follow him to Aunt He's residence.
Aunt He and Shen Mingfu lived together in Cuiwei Garden. At first, Mrs. Li pretended to be generous and did not let Aunt He, Aunt Gao and Aunt Luo come in from the outside room to live near her. Instead, she let her live farther away.
Live in Cuiwei Garden.
Aunt He lives in the front yard of Cuiwei Garden, and Shen Mingfu lives in the back yard.
There are mainly a few tall plantains and crabapples planted in Cuiwei Garden. The others are a bit crowded because of the many houses. There are not many flowers and plants, only scattered decorations.
But because the owner is willing to put in the effort, it is very unique and will not make people feel messy.
Biyun followed the little girl all the way to Aunt He's house. Aunt He had already received the notice from the little girl and rushed out to welcome her. She also ordered people, "Go and open the courtyard door wide. If anyone is curious, just let them look. It's just
Miss Biyun is just here to visit the Fourth Miss on behalf of the Eldest Miss."
