In the evening, Su Xiyue ordered people to sort the gifts sent to them again, and selected some supplements to send to the old lady and Aunt Lian.
"Aunt Qing, how is the fourth lady doing these days?"
"Miss, it's much better. The fourth lady actually walked two steps at the old lady's place today! Even though she only took two steps, the old lady was very happy! She kept praising the fourth lady."
"That's good, this fourth young lady is what worries Auntie Lian the most now. When she gets better, Auntie Lian's mood will get better, and the child in her belly will be healthy. Father will feel more relieved.
"
"Miss, your thoughts are really different from others. If it were anyone else, you would definitely not want any other woman to give birth to an heir for me besides your own mother! But you are exactly the opposite of them.
Let's go." Aunt Qing muttered as she helped the young lady untie her hair.
"If my mother were still here, I would naturally be unwilling to do so. But my mother is no longer here, and my father is in his prime. Should I ask my father to celebrate the festival for my mother? Wouldn't it make people in Beijing laugh?" Su Xiyue
As he said this, he was thinking that if he were to be gone one day, would King Rui marry ten or eight concubines to fill his place?
As soon as this idea came up, Su Xiyue's face turned red. She really liked to think wildly. Why did she think of him again now?
"Miss, the master is here." Nanny Xu opened the curtain and came in, gently took off the lid of the incense burner, took a slender small silver spoon, and carefully poked it, and then put the lid back on
.
Su Xiyue's mood was a bit complicated as she smelled the long and delicious agarwood fragrance in the room. This was given to her by King Rui. King Rui had always loved agarwood, and I really couldn't understand that he was used to seeing killings like this.
How can a cold-blooded person like incense?
"Greetings to father." Seeing her father come in, Su Xiyue hurriedly saluted.
"No need. It doesn't always have to be like this at home. Are you ready to go to sleep?"
"I have been busy lately and am a little tired, so I thought of taking a rest early."
"Well, you have indeed lost a lot of weight recently. King Rui sent you back today. My father thought you met by chance, but he actually said that he asked you out?"
Su Xiyue nodded and raised her eyes to meet her father's suspicious eyes, "Exactly. Prince Rui said he had something important to discuss with his daughter, so he did it."
Su Jue waved his hand, "That's it! Although you have agreed to get married, the wedding date has not yet been decided, so it's better to see each other less."
"Yes, father."
"I wonder if my father is here so late, but is there something wrong?"
"Prince Rui said that after your brother gets married, he will start preparing for your marriage. Being a father is full of joy and sorrow!"
Su Xiyue smiled, moved slightly to his side, and offered a cup of tea with her own hands, "Father, please try this tartary buckwheat tea. It is not suitable to drink strong tea at night. This kind of tartary buckwheat tea has a unique fragrance and is also delicious."
It is very good for the body. If my father enjoys drinking it, he might as well drink this kind of tea for a while."
Su Jue took the tea cup and took a sip. He felt the aroma was rich. When the tea slid down his throat, there was still a lingering fragrance between his lips and teeth.
"It's really good tea! What is this? Tartary buckwheat?"
"Well. Father, are you reluctant to let go of your daughter?" Su Xiyue asked with a smile.
"You stupid girl! In the future, you will marry into the royal family. I don't know whether it is a blessing or a curse! Yue'er, no matter what, you have to remember that you are my daughter, Su Jue, and I am the daughter of An Ding Houfu.
Girl, even if you do something wrong in the future, you will still have your father and your brother behind you."
"Yes, father. My daughter has written it down." Su Xiyue knew that her father was beginning to worry that she was about to get involved in a palace battle. After all, as a princess, she had to enter the palace, and she had to deal with Concubine Hui and others.
When thinking of Concubine Hui, Su Xiyue felt her teeth itch with hatred! A concubine in the palace who could stretch her hands so long was definitely not an easy person!
Su Jue talked to Su Xiyue for a while, then got up and left, telling her to be careful about her health and not to wait for Su Zhi's marriage to be over. She would be in trouble if she got sick again.
Early the next morning, Su Xiyue went to the flower hall and distributed cards to the stewards of each house, and then went to the old lady's place to say hello. By coincidence, her uncle and aunt also came over together. They sat together in the old lady's room and talked.
say.
"It can be said that this year is a double happiness for the old lady! This month, Yue'er was given a marriage to King Rui, and A-Zhi married the daughter-in-law of the Wenchang Marquis. It's really gratifying and congratulatory!" Mrs. Li said.
Li Peng also smiled and said, "This is not only a blessing for the two children, but also a blessing for our General Weiyuan Mansion."
The smile on the old lady's face could hardly stop, "Thank you for remembering me! I heard that Li Bing is also engaged to be married to the daughter-in-law of Duke Dingguo? I haven't congratulated you yet!"
"We are all a family, so why should we meet outsiders?" Li Peng said with a smile, "Yue Yatou, it's you. Your aunt and I came here today to see how your dowry is prepared. If there is anything missing, just follow me directly.
Your aunt said, "Your aunt and I don't have a daughter, and we have always felt a little regretful about this. Now, seeing that Yue Yatou is becoming more and more promising, your aunt and I also feel that our faces are bright!"
"Thank you so much, uncle. There is nothing missing in the house. Grandma also gave Yue'er a lot of things."
Mrs. Li waved her hand, ordered someone to deliver a small box, signaled Su Xiyue to come over, took her hand, and said, "You are the one who is going to marry into Prince Rui's house. This dowry and so on are for the future."
Secondly, you are here to support you! With the old lady here, your dowry will be in good condition! Your uncle and I have thought about it, and I am afraid that in the future, you will use it the most.
I have money! So, I just asked someone to prepare some banknotes for you. Don’t think your uncle and I are vulgar! We are both rough people and can’t do those elegant things!"
When Su Xiyue heard this, she immediately understood that in the future, whether she was in the palace or entering the palace, she would have to use money as a dowry. That's why her uncle came up with the idea of giving her silver notes as a dowry. Although it was
It's tacky, but it's the most practical. If you give some jewelry as a gift, you can convert it into cash when it's time to use it, but it will take a lot of discounts. I feel grateful and pay homage!
"Thank you, uncle and aunt. Yue'er dare not accept such a heavy gift."
"What are you afraid of? You are not only the legitimate daughter of Marquis Anding, but also the legitimate daughter of General Weiyuan. If you marry into Prince Rui's palace in the future, my uncle will be the first to not spare anyone who dares to bully you.
"
After hearing this, the smile on the old lady's face became even more cheerful! Li Peng's words clearly told them that General Weiyuan's Mansion was on Su Xiyue's side. It was tantamount to saying that
Knowing their attitude, they followed Su Xiyue and stood in King Rui's camp.
