Little Duan's mind was filled with all kinds of questions.
Is it because the Holy One cannot stand these old dignitaries?
Uncle Chengyi has always been respectful and restrained. Even if he wants to kill a chicken to scare the monkeys, he shouldn't use his own family as the chicken?
The Empress Dowager revealed this to Yun Yan. Was it because she felt sorry for Yun Yan, or did she not agree with His Majesty's ideas?
The Holy Spirit wants to take action, how much should he move, and how much should he withdraw?
Her family has been passed down smoothly until now. If something happens to her, how can she go to meet her uncle and her ancestors?
The younger Mr. Duan thought more and more cautiously, and asked Lin Yunyan in a low voice: "Are you sure you didn't express the wrong meaning? Is this what the Cining Palace meant?"
Lin Yunyan looked serious.
Cining Gong didn't express anything, but that's what she meant.
She is thick-skinned, so she is not afraid of telling lies to Mr. Duan.
"I expressed it correctly," Lin Yunyan nodded, "Yesterday, the imperial study room sent a pot of coral to Cining Palace, saying that it was a gift from the Duke of Fuguo. He was unwilling to work in the Ministry of War, so he handed the dictionary to the emperor. The Empress Dowager recited it.
Two sentences, 'everyone who is exposed is cared about', 'the Xu family has only been a grandson and grandson for so many years, everything is too obvious', and he also told me, 'keep your salary and salary, and win more money'..."
These words are 70% true and 30% false.
Coral, Xu Jian gave it as a gift.
Xu Jian also handed over the dictionary.
Little Duan can know these two things by just asking around.
As for what the Empress Dowager said, there is no way to find out anyway. It is what Lin Yunyan said, and besides, she also stuffed a truth into it.
Xiao Duan tasted the food back and forth. People in the palace always spoke in convoluted ways, but she caught the key points.
If you want to stand in front of noble people for a long time, you have to be clear about it, but not too clear about it.
Greedy for ink and amassing money, you can't use unclear gold and silver, but you can't use anything secretly.
After Xiao Duan had figured this out, he said, "That matter needs to be changed. Lao Shi Xiang must not be related to us. Someone else has to take care of it."
Lin Yunyan understood.
Of course she also thought of this.
I didn't bring it up last night because I didn't want my grandmother to leave the impression that she was "prepared" for Laoshi Lane.
Obviously, my grandmother is also a thoughtful person. She tossed and turned all night long. She couldn't just think about the word "stable", but she must also have thought about how to do the business after the sale.
She knew what was going on in her heart, but on the face of her face, Lin Yunyan was listening attentively.
Xiao Duan took a sip of tea to moisten her throat and said: "Everyone named on the gold list is a disciple of the emperor. I have always only thanked my master and thanked you, but I have no reason to thank my landlord who rented the house.
Lao Shi Xiang boasts about Feng Shui, and Wang Po sells melons. This is common in business, but this Wang Po cannot be an official.
From now on, when students come to Beijing and ask, ‘Uncle Chengyi’s house,’ then our business will be over.”
Not only the business, but also the brain.
Especially when the Holy One is tempted to kill the chicken to scare the monkeys. If the good monkeys don't do the same thing, they rush out to be chickens, and the old man hangs himself!
"You are right," Lin Yunyan agreed, "In this case, it is not appropriate for Chen Gui to come forward alone. With his wealth, he suddenly took out an entire alley of money, and everyone knows who is standing behind him.
"
"Choose a stranger, an outsider, and you have to be extremely trustworthy," Xiao Duan thought for a moment, made up his mind, and said, "I'll be the one to choose the person. Call your father over later, and I'll discuss it with him.
I have an idea in my mind, Sanlang, Sanlang, let’s go make arrangements with Chen Gui first.”
Regarding her own future, Mr. Duan is very cautious.
People were chatting inside, and outside, people from each room came to pay their respects.
The third lady, Mrs. Chen, walked into the courtyard. When she looked up, she saw many people standing in the corridor.
Mother-in-law Ruan, Qingyan and others were standing next to her. Second sister-in-law Huang and fourth sister-in-law Yuan were also standing, biting their ears and talking. When the eldest niece Yun Jing saw her, she smiled and saluted, and then
Waved to Lin Yunfang behind her.
"Who's in there?" Mrs. Chen stepped forward and asked her sister-in-law softly.
"Yun Yan was resting here yesterday," Mrs. Yuan replied, "the grandfather and grandson were talking quietly."
Chen is happy.
Lin Yunfang had a long neck and a curious look on her face, and was pulled back to her by Lin Yunjing.
"Let grandma know that you were eavesdropping and I will deduct your pocket money." Lin Yunjing teased her.
Lin Yunfang is the youngest daughter with a particularly lively temperament. When she heard the words, she said: "Let me listen. If the second sister says something bad about us, I will also expose her shortcomings!"
Mrs. Chen heard this and laughed at her: "You still use Yun Yan to talk about you? The old lady's ears are ringing with your bad deeds!"
After saying this, several people covered their mouths and laughed.
Lin Yunjing also laughed. She could probably guess that the whispers between her second sister and her grandmother were probably to reject her marriage.
She entrusted the important matter of marriage to her second sister, and she could imagine the difficulty involved.
The second sister rested here yesterday. Did she talk to her grandmother once during the night?
Thinking of this, Lin Yunjing cast her eyes on Nanny Ruan and others, trying to get some clues from their expressions.
Aunt Ruan's face looked as usual, as did Aunt Cen.
Qingyan......
Why does Qingyan look a little strange?
Before Lin Yunjing could think about it clearly, a corner of the bamboo curtain in the middle room was lifted from the inside, and Lin Yunyan leaned out.
She said crisply: "Grandma, please ask the uncles to talk to you inside."
A group of people filed in.
Lin Yunyan took Lin Yunjing's arm and winked at her.
Seeing that she was confident, Lin Yunjing also smiled.
The two sisters walked in tacitly, and out of the corner of their eyes, Lin Yunjing saw Qingyan looking at the hands held by their sisters, looking thoughtful.
Very strange.
In the next room, Mr. Duan sat on the Arhat bed and received the ceremony.
Mrs. Chen reported: "Yesterday, Wanfu Tower sent some patterns for Yun Jing to choose from. This afternoon, Hongxi Hall will send a batch of new clothes for Yun Jing to try on."
"I was dazzled by the selection," Mrs. Huang continued, "and I even asked the princess to hold my eyes for me."
"You have to choose carefully," Xiao Duan took a sip of tea, "If you can't choose Wanfulou, you can choose another one. You must choose the one you like."
Huang was slightly startled when he heard this.
That was true, but she vaguely heard some meaning of "not in a hurry" from Xiao Duan's words.
Obviously just a few days ago, Mrs. Duan had expressed that she was a little nervous during the wedding and had to act more quickly. But today, it suddenly happened the other way around?
Could it be that there was something going on in the marriage that she didn't know about?
Huang was suspicious, so she didn't mention it rashly. She only carefully observed her left and right.
From this observation, she could tell that something was "off" with Qingyan.
Yes.
When she entered the room earlier, she turned her head and seemed to see Qingyan looking at Yun Jing with an expression that was hard to explain.
Does Qingyan know something?
Thanks to book friend Xu Bicheng’s official girlfriend and store red envelope for the reward.
