Chapter 266 Royal Embroidery Building
Chapter 266 Royal Embroidery Building
On the tenth day of October in the ninth year of Hongzheng, a plaque was officially hung on the Gujiaxiu Building located in the golden section of Heshun Street. The plaque was hung, and it attracted countless people to watch. Some people whispered: "It is said that this embroidery The proprietress of the store is making clothes for the empress, and the empress rewarded this brand when she was happy, and even sent several maids to learn embroidery!"
Another person said: "That's right, I saw those people in the palace the day before yesterday, and they were all very proud!" Another person asked: "I don't know if they accept apprentices strictly in Xiulou. Girl, come and learn some crafts!" Many people echoed, and the Gu Family Embroidery Building was very lively for a while.
Three days later, the shopkeeper of the Gujia Xiulou gave out wedding cakes in the Xiulou. Many old customers and neighbors went to the shopkeeper's wedding.Although the wedding is simple, it is very lively.
And the bride, Qingwen, was in the new house at this time, looking shyly at the housewives who came to congratulate her.Looking at Qingwen's delicate face, the female relatives kept saying auspicious words.At this moment, there was a burst of crisp smiles from outside the door, and the female relatives saw two beautiful girls walking in hand in hand, and at the same time congratulated the bride: "Sister Qingwen, congratulations!"
Qingwen looked at the visitor in surprise, although she couldn't come down to greet her, she still stretched out her hand: "Why are you here, come quickly!" It was Xueyan and Er Rong who came.Xueyan stepped forward and took Qingwen's hand, and said with a smile: "Sister Qingwen and brother-in-law's happy day, how could we not come? Not only the two of us are here, but there are others. Sister Qingwen might as well make a guess ?”
Qingwen smiled heartily: "Really? Then let me take a guess. If Zijuan wants to accompany the girl, she will definitely not be able to come..." Before she finished speaking, she heard a gentle voice: "I will Say I'm not welcome." Before the words finished, Zijuan entered the new house first, smiling to the outside: "Miss, take it easy. That girl Qingwen doesn't necessarily welcome us."
Qingwen's eyes widened immediately, and she was about to stand up subconsciously, but was pressed hard by Xueyan on the bed: "You are a bride today, but you can't get up!" Qingwen still stared at the door of the room intently, waiting When seeing Daiyu's light figure, tears fell down: "Girl..."
Daiyu was accompanied by Nanny Song, Zijuan, and Peiwen into the new house, and looked at Qingwen with a smile: "Why are you crying, you can't shed tears on this day of great joy, Xueyan quickly wiped Qingwen's tears away! "
Qingwen wiped it carelessly by herself, and said incoherently, "Girl, sit down quickly. I'll ask someone to make tea for you. There's no good tea here. How about Biluochun? You also need to bring some pastries!"
Daiyu smiled: "Okay, okay. I'll come to see you, and I'm leaving!" Zijuan helped Daiyu to a chair beside her and sat down, and said with a smile: "I just said that the girl is so sudden. Running here will frighten Qingwen, and the girl just doesn’t believe me.” Nanny Song looked at Qingwen with a smile: “You don’t need to worry about these things today, because you are also someone close to the girl. The girl misses you too. Common sense."
After Song Nanny finished speaking, she waved her hands outside, and saw a few girls coming in with seven or eight brocade boxes, Daiyu said with a smile: "I have prepared these things for you to put on makeup, but I am afraid that you will push them around. I gave you a bento today as a congratulatory gift, and I will live a happy life with Yuan Qing in the future. If you have any embarrassing things, remember to tell me and my brother."
Qingwen was very moved, and said in a choked voice: "Thank you, girl. We will be fine." Xueyan took Qingwen's hand, and suddenly asked a little strangely: "Why didn't you see Mu Qing?" Qingwen said: " It should be in the Embroidery Tower, there are a lot of people coming to learn from teachers today, Mu Qing is probably still busy!" Zijuan said with a smile: "I have heard about the grand occasion of the Embroidery Tower, it is really enviable."
Qingwen smiled deeply.At this time, the female relatives who had been watching curiously from the side suddenly asked: "Miss Gu, tell us quickly, who is this fairy-like girl?" Qingwen smiled mysteriously: "I'm afraid it won't happen." Yes, you will naturally know about it if you have fate in the future.”
Those female relatives looked at Qingwen in confusion, and even some of them were about to say something outspokenly.Seeing this situation, Nanny Song smiled and said to Daiyu: "Girl, let's go back. In a few days, we will bring Qingwen closer to the mansion to talk to you." Daiyu nodded and looked at Qingwen: "I have to work hard in my future life. I'm so glad I'll change that explosive temper..." Qingwen nodded heavily: "I'll save it, girl, don't worry!"
Only then did Daiyu smile, and left the small courtyard of the Gu family accompanied by a group of girls and women.After seeing Daiyu go out, those female relatives surrounded Qingwen again, asking questions in one go.Qingwen just smiled, determined not to utter a word.
Yes, the identities of their girls are different now, and it is no longer something she can casually mention in front of everyone.What Qingwen didn't know was that on the second day of her wedding, an acquaintance moved into the courtyard next door that had been vacant.Qing Wen and Yuan Qing had just finished their breakfast when the girl Qing'er came in to report back: "Grandpa and Grandma, Mrs. Xue, who moved in next door, sent a congratulatory gift. Do you want to see Grandma?"
Qingwen was slightly surprised: "The Xue family?"
Yuan Qing was not surprised at all, and said with a smile: "It's good to meet you, you let them go to the front and wait, grandma will be here soon!" Qing'er nodded and left, Yuan Qing then looked at Qingwen, saw her She was dressed in a brand new red dress, full of shyness and joy of newlyweds, so she smiled and said: "This dress is not bad, I will wear it like this every day from now on!"
Qingwen couldn't turn the corner, but she couldn't help but blush.Yuan Qing smiled deeply: "Go and have a look, bring two more girls. No matter what they say, just don't care about it!"
Qingwen was a little puzzled, but she already had a feeling in her heart. Sure enough, when she got to the front yard, she saw Yinger and a nun standing beside Baochai in the room.Ying'er was obviously taken aback when she saw Qingwen, but she still smiled and said, "Sister Qingwen, I haven't seen you for a while!"
A little girl behind Qingwen said angrily: "This girl is so unreasonable. How can we call our grandma's boudoir at will." Ying'er's face froze, obviously unable to hang on.Qingwen waved her hand and said with a smile, "I don't know that Aunt Xue and Miss Bao moved next door, what a coincidence!"
It took Ying'er a long time to recover, and said with a smile, "It's just our old house, so we'll just make do with it for a while, and we'll move out in a few days! Our girl only said the family name is Gu, if she knows Qing..." Yinger was taken aback.Seeing that the little girl behind Qingwen raised her eyebrows again, she changed her words: "I will definitely be happy."
Qingwen smiled, and suddenly became a little bored at such a meeting, and said: "The relationship is good, I have something to do later, so I won't be with you today, and say hello to Miss Bao for me!" The mother-in-law left the front yard.Ying'er looked at Qingwen's leaving back, sighed enviously, and then returned to Xue's house.
Aunt Xue and Baochai listened to Yinger's return.They all fell silent.Fortunately, Baochai is good at hiding her emotions on weekdays, so she just smiled: "Very well, Qingwen has finally come to the end of her hardships."
Aunt Xue angrily pushed the teacup on the table to the ground.He said angrily: "What the hell! He even became a neighbor with a girl, and said where will we put our Xue family's face when we go out. Go tell the housekeeper to buy a house as soon as possible, the sooner you move out, the better!"
Baochai said: "Mother, why should I care about this? Where can we buy a house with our money? We have to pay for my brother!" Aunt Xue naturally knew the situation at home.After being stunned for a while, he said fiercely: "Find out the IOU from the Jia family, and tomorrow I'll go to the door to ask for money. 30 taels, what can I do with it, it's even cheaper for those wolf-hearted people. "
Baochai sighed softly, not wanting to listen to what her mother had to say.He said: "I'm going back to my room first!" Aunt Xue reminded: "Tomorrow I'm going to see Master Xing, so you're so good at picking out your clothes, don't be like last time. Dress so casually!"
Baochai paused, but she did not refute her mother, but nodded and continued walking towards her room.And Ying'er followed Baochai, and she could still see Baochai's slightly trembling hands.
Yinger feels that her girl has become more and more strange recently.He often stays alone in the house and does not let anyone serve him.He never refuted this almost terrible request from his wife.Ying'er still remembers the day when the emperor issued an order to marry Miss Lin.The situation in Rongguo Mansion was a mess.The girl stayed in the room alone for a long time that day, but Yinger always felt that there seemed to be someone else in the room.
The Rongguo Mansion on that day still makes people palpitate when they think about it. First, it was rumored that his wife had lost her mind, and she couldn't do anything except for her breath.Later, Aunt Zhao came out to accuse Jin Chuaner, saying that it was Jin Chuaner's fault that his wife became like this.She saw with her own eyes that Jin Chuan'er had entered his wife's yard before his wife's accident.
Although Jia Zheng loved Jin Chuan'er, he still couldn't be ambiguous about the matter of his married wife. Jia's mother also sent someone to question Jin Chuan'er.Unexpectedly, Jin Chuan'er fainted out of fear. After seeing it, the doctor said that the child was in some danger and had to stay in bed to protect the baby.
As soon as this situation was told, Jin Chuan'er's maid cried and said that Jin Chuan'er was angered by his wife, and the wife called Jin Chuan'er to scold him severely. Second Master Bao also saw it, so he can testify.When Jia Zheng took people to Yihong Courtyard to look for Baoyu, he bumped into Baoyu fooling around with girls in broad daylight. Jia Zheng was so angry that he almost vomited blood, and beat Baoyu indiscriminately. After the beaten Baoyu vomited a mouthful of blood, he fainted.
Angrily, Jia's mother picked up the dragon's head and crutches and beat Jia Zheng several times, and ordered Baoyu to be taken to her courtyard.And all the maids in Yihong Yard bought belts, so Mammy Lai locked them up in the firewood shed, and didn't care whether they sold them or bombed them.
For a while, people in Rongguo Mansion were fluctuating, and the usual popularity was completely gone. It was as quiet as a dead house all day long.Aunt Xue and Baochai moved out of Rongguo Mansion under such a messy situation.
Ying'er was so busy thinking about these stupid things that she accidentally bumped into Baochai's back and knelt down in fright: "Girl, I..." Baochai glanced at Yinger and said lightly, "Get up!" , don’t follow me anymore, I want to stay by myself for a while!”
Ying'er looked up at Baochai, and left obediently.Baochai entered the room alone, looked at the somewhat simple room, and at the brightly colored clothes on the bed, clenched her fists tightly, as if she had finally made up her mind.
Daiyu in the herb garden didn't know anything about what happened in Jia's mansion. She was watching her brother tell Aunt Lin, Nanny Song and others to start preparing their dowry with a look of surprise.After Aunt Lin, Nanny Song and others had all left, Daiyu took Lin Haorui's hand and said, "Brother, don't bother, my dowry is just plain."
Lin Haorui raised his face slightly: "Nonsense, you are a princess, the dowry is so simple. Besides, my younger sister, Lin Haorui, must be red makeup! You don't have to worry about the dowry. Today Tianyou said, The emperor wants to formally consort you on the day you and Tianyou get married, so your clothes may not be finalized on that day. You don’t need to worry about your wedding dress, but you have to give Tianyou clothes, shoes and hats when the ceremony is over. , it’s better to prepare as soon as possible.”
Daiyu listened to Lin Haorui's nagging and talking so much, she was moved and shy in her heart, she held Lin Haorui's arm and refused to speak.Lin Haorui patted the back of Daiyu's hand heartily, and stuffed a piece of paper in his hand to Daiyu: "The size on it is Tianyou's size, as well as the color you like, and the rules of making clothes with the royal family, sister, come and see!"
Daiyu shyly took the piece of paper, and shouted softly: "Brother, let go of my affairs first, and my brother will marry Sister Yang in a month, so let's take care of your own affairs first!" Lin Haorui pointed Counting on Shan Pavilion tossing about, he said with a smile: "Haven't I been doing this all the time? Oh, by the way, the new house of you and Tianyou is probably located in Changyang Palace. The empress tried to persuade the emperor to let you open alone Mansion, but God bless this crown prince, so there is no need to think about it."
Seeing that Lin Haorui only said a few words, Daiyu turned to herself again, and smiled helplessly.Knowing that it's useless to fight, he simply listened to Lin Haorui's nagging.Lin Haorui didn't seem to notice Daiyu's helplessness, and still said: "Although Changyang Palace is in the palace, it is also a self-contained system. The main hall and garden in the palace are complete, so you won't be too uncomfortable if you think about it. Tianyou is drawing the picture of Changyang Palace , When it comes time to let my sister choose a pleasant yard by herself."
At this moment, Daiyu felt that she was really very happy, to have such a brother who cared about her everything, and God Bless who cared about her everything.Daiyu really felt that she must have cultivated a great blessing in her last life to get her current life.
Lin Haorui didn't have Daiyu's sentiments at all, and he was still thinking brokenly: "It seems that the red sandalwood I have kept for many years has finally come in handy, and it seems that I have to be transported back from Yangzhou as soon as possible, otherwise it will be a little later. When the canal freezes, it will slow down." Lin Haorui seemed to feel that this matter was very important, and after greeting Daiyu, he went to tell Butler Lin.
Looking at the back of Lin Haorui leaving in a hurry, Daiyu felt her eyes were a little sour, so she couldn't help but smiled deeply.
Ps:
The time to take care of children on weekends is uncertain, so this chapter was published in the early hours of the morning, and I feel really sorry for making everyone wait for a long time.
