Chapter 119 Entering the palace to celebrate the birthday!
"Don't worry, cousin! No matter how smart she is, she is just a boudoir girl! Besides, we don't really want to do anything to her, we just want her to have some relationship with cousin first! Don't worry about this,
Wei Chen will ask Lian'er to go back to the Marquis Mansion to find a way to get the matter settled. Moreover, the Emperor's birthday is coming soon, and there will be a grand palace banquet then. From Wei Chen's point of view, this is a good opportunity!"
"Yeah, that's fine! Then choose that day! Make sure everything is well organized and don't make any mistakes."
"Don't worry, cousin, Wei Chen will definitely be careful!"
Su Xiyue and Su Yu'er returned to the Marquis Mansion. They first went to the old lady's place to order a meal, and then went to Bixiang Courtyard to visit Aunt Lian.
"I don't even know if there is a little sister or a little brother in my aunt's belly. Can't the government doctor diagnose it yet?" Su Yu'er asked curiously.
"Is that so fast? Thank you Miss Third for your concern!"
"Aunt Lian, have you been eating well recently? Did you sleep well at night? If you need anything, just ask. Now, grandma is wholeheartedly looking forward to you adding another young master to the Marquis." Su Xiyue
smiled.
Forsythia smiled sheepishly, her expression slightly nervous, and she touched her lower abdomen with her right hand, "I don't know if it's a boy or a girl! But don't let the old lady down!"
"It should be a little brother, right? Don't they say sour children and hot girls? I heard that Aunt Lian has always liked to eat sour foods since she became pregnant?"
"Where did you hear this common saying, Miss Second? It's just some folk rumors, it can't be taken seriously." Even though she said this, Forsythia's eyes were still shining. Who doesn't want a son? She naturally
What I want most! Having a son means that I will have someone to rely on in my future! What's more, since I was born this time, I am more than ten years younger than the crown prince, so naturally he will not threaten the crown prince's status, and he should not attract anyone.
What trouble!
Thinking about how I almost had Mrs. Cao have an abortion in the past, I couldn't help feeling a little cold, and my body couldn't help but shiver! I hope this child can be born safely! After all, Mrs. Cao is not here.
Now. I only have an aunt like me in my backyard. I guess no one will want to plot against her anymore, right?
"Miss, you are indeed here! Come to the front hall to receive the order. The old lady has already passed by!" Aunt Qing said with a smile.
"Accepting the order? Why does this emperor like to give orders to our palace?" Su Xiyue complained a little. This time to receive the order, she had to kneel down again. This must be so troublesome and frustrating.
ah!
"Miss, please stop dawdling. Third Miss, please move faster. Don't keep the old lady and the father-in-law waiting for too long."
After thanking him and sending the father-in-law away, Su Xiyue helped the old lady sit down and said: "I didn't expect that this time, the emperor's birthday would also allow the family members to come to the palace to have a banquet. Grandma, do you think we can also
Should I give it as a gift?"
"According to the etiquette, this is a gift from the Marquis, so that's it. We don't need to prepare two copies for the Marquis! It's just that you have always been favored by the Emperor, and he often rewards you. If you don't prepare a gift for me, it doesn't matter.
It can’t be justified no matter how you do it.”
"Grandma is right! Yue'er understands. But, what kind of gift should I give this? I haven't heard the news before that the emperor wants his family members to enter the palace, and I haven't made any preparations. I wonder if it's still too late?"
"You child! What matters most to the Emperor is your wishes, not the expensive birthday gift you must give. Just like the painting you presented to the Queen earlier, it did not please the Emperor. ?”
Su Xiyue felt a little embarrassed after hearing this, "But that painting before took a lot of effort! I just started painting now, I don't know if it's too late? If the painting doesn't go well again, won't it make the emperor angry? Besides, I don't know if it's too late. Well, as a birthday gift to the Queen, I am giving you a painting. If I give you a painting as a birthday gift to the Emperor, will it make people feel that there is no novelty, and it will be more like perfunctory to the Emperor?"
"What you said makes sense. How about giving some fine jade as a gift? Doesn't the emperor like jade?"
Su Xiyue sighed, "Rong Yue'er, think about it again! I can't give it too shabbily, making people think that I, Su Xiyue, am an ignorant person, but I can't give it too much. If it's too much, Didn’t I become a joke again with the birthday gift my father sent me? Grandma, don’t worry, Yue’er will think about it again and she will always come up with some solution. If it doesn’t work, she will go to my father to discuss it.”
"That's fine. Yu'er, please go back with me. Let your sister think about it carefully."
"Yes, grandma."
Su Xiyue thought about it and felt a little headache. She ordered someone to open the small warehouse. She went to the small warehouse and looked around to see if she could find anything good. If she could process it a little bit, it might be good! But she didn't find it. For a long time, she didn’t see anything interesting. It wasn’t until she saw a piece of a damaged rosewood makeup box that her thoughts moved! This rosewood makeup box was originally gifted to her by the emperor, but when it was moved, it was not found. After accidentally touching one piece, the entire makeup box became unusable. Because of this, she was really worried for a while, worried that the emperor would blame her.
Now that she saw this makeup box that was obviously no longer usable, Su Xiyue rolled her eyes, thought about it, smiled lightly, and asked Xiao Lu to wipe away the dust on it with a silk scarf, and carried it back. My own bedroom.
In the next few days, Su Xiyue began to be busy. But the door was closed, and she didn't know what she was playing with. She also asked Aunt Xu to help her make a pillow for her according to the picture, but not like a pillow. It's something from the pillow.
In a blink of an eye, the emperor's birthday was coming, so Yi Xiren naturally dressed up again and entered the palace.
When they arrived at Chongwen Hall, Su Xiyue sat with the old lady, and Su Yu'er sat under her.
"Have you not entered the palace for two years? This Chongwen Palace looks even more majestic and noble than before."
"Grandma, today is the Emperor's Thousand-Autumn Festival. Naturally, this place has to be carefully decorated. Look at the precious flowers and plants in this hall, and look at the lamps and candles hanging above. Look at the lampstand, it's all beautiful. It’s an extraordinary product.”
"That's right! I saw it, it's true!" After the old lady said it, she glanced at the ladies and ladies in the palace. They were all jeweled and very luxurious. Then she looked at her two grandchildren. My daughter, although her dress is a bit simple, is eye-catching! Especially Su Xiyue, both her headdress and clothes are extremely simple. She wears a soft violet smoke skirt, which is noble but not eye-catching. I think she is too exaggerated! The pearl glazed hairpin on her head is shiny and shiny under the candlelight in the palace, which makes people feel that it only adds a bit of delicate temperament to her, but there is no trace of nobility. a feeling of.
