Chapter 52
After a while, Cheng Li lowered his head and entered the house. Guizhi closed the door tightly and stepped out.

"Come here~" my aunt said softly, leaning on the soft couch in the back room.

Cheng Li glanced at the piles of account books on the table, straightened his back with a smile and walked in: "Where did you suffer the unbearable grievance?"

The aunt stretched out her hand softly towards him. Cheng Li shook her hand and sat down on the soft couch.

It turns out that Cheng Yu has been away from the border all these years, and he rarely comes home for a few days, and he treats Aunt Pan indifferently.After Aunt Pan took charge, she had many contacts with Butler Cheng.At this time, housekeeper Cheng was only two years older than Pan Xiuying. He had broad shoulders and narrow waist, and a good appearance. However, he was not married and had been living in the house.

Since having Cheng Li, Aunt Pan no longer cares about setting things right, and only focuses on planning the future for her daughter Xiang Jin.

After a year or two, the two of them began to put their thoughts on Cheng's family property, hoping that one day they would be wrapped up in gold and silver and live together.

Guizhi and Taoye, the aunt's maids, had known this for a long time, but their mother's family had received many benefits from her aunt and the housekeeper, so they were willing to cover up for them. In the past few years, no one had noticed anything fishy.

"Have all the rewards you received before the festival been put into the treasury?" Pan Xiuying asked casually while combing her hair.

"Most of the rewards this time are items made by the silver craftsmanship bureau. Those I put into the treasury, and the remaining gold and silver went into your account as usual. It was taken from the old lady's account." Cheng Li also helped. She trimmed her hair, "That's right, the gold and silver properties under the young master's name are gradually increasing. I think it is necessary to set up separate accounts and manage them separately."

"That's not necessary," Pan Xiuying bit her lip and smiled, "Send him away sooner or later, isn't his belongings also ours? What should we do with the spare parts?"

"Oh? You already have an idea?"

"I originally wanted to wait a few years to see how many more meritorious deeds I can make! But when I think about it, I will get old if I wait any longer." Pan Xiuying leaned back on Cheng Li's waist, "I also want to give you a son. Oh! Besides, Cheng Haitang won't come back sooner or later, and Xiang Jin comes back just when it's time to get engaged, so we can't help delaying it any longer. "

Pan Xiuying took Cheng Li's hand and stood up with a charming smile. Cheng Li couldn't help but bite it again.Pan Xiuying smiled and pushed him away: "Come back in the evening. Now there is Cheng Haitang in the yard. Be careful when you go in and out, and don't let her get caught."

"What are you afraid of? Aren't you going to deal with her sooner or later?" Cheng Li smiled sadly, walked to the door, bowed his head and lowered his hands, and went out.

After lunch, Cheng Mansion unexpectedly received a post from Prince De's Mansion, saying that Miss Cheng Mansion was invited to attend Princess Qingyao's haircut ceremony, which was scheduled to take place three days later.Cheng Xiangjin danced with excitement: "It's Prince Chu! He must still remember me!" She happily held the post and went to discuss it with her mother.

Haitang also quickly thought about the princess's favorite things, and there was nothing special. Ji Jili couldn't send medicine or food, so she had to ask Ji'er to move out the box she brought back from Yueling and let her look through it. .

She suddenly saw an ebony box, opened it, and contained a clever contraption called a "chicken eating rice."Brother Mingze made this for her two years ago.The chicken hides in the box. Outside the box are three small bowls. You can put a grain of rice into any bowl at will, and the chicken will come out of the box and peck at that bowl accurately.The neck of the chick can also move, which is very cute.

Haitang shook her head and said with a smile: "I'll just borrow flowers to offer to the Buddha. The princess is lively and fun, and this little chicken eating rice is the most suitable for her!"

Ji'er helped her put the box away and scratched her nose to shame her: "Now that you have brother Wangye, you can give away brother Mingze's things as you please. I asked you to borrow them for fun at that time, but you were still reluctant to part with them!"

"You can't tell brother Mingze like that. You must say that I was so heartbroken that I cut my heart, liver, and lungs before I was willing to send him out!"

After hearing this, Shuang'er and Ji'er both said "hehe".

"By the way, ask Huaping, has her waist bag been sewn up? I picked up a few bottles of commonly used wound medicine and gave them to the prince. I thanked him for helping me choose a good horse. In a few days, we will ask the princess to look at the horse. Go!" Haitang said with a smile.

It turned out that Haitang sewed a waist bag for Xie San to replace the cloth bag that contained the medicine last time. Everyone thought it was beautiful and practical. Even if it was not filled with medicine, it would be better to decorate it with small things than a sleeve bag. Besides, Ling Xue and the others were often Dress up well and carry things in your arms.

So several little girls gathered around, you made one, I made one, and Ling Feng and Yu Lang made one for each of them.Ruyi also had something sewn on, and when Haitang saw it, she knew it was the sky-blue robe that her brother often wore.

"Your Majesty, the girls and the others locked themselves in the room, as if they were doing embroidery." An Qi scratched his head and said.

embroidered?Is Haitang in a hurry to embroider her dowry?Prince Duan couldn't help laughing: "Ling Feng, go over and give her some good silk thread, and ask her to be careful not to prick her hands."

So Haitang was confused and received a whole box of embroidery threads of various colors!

An Qi: Anyway, the girl uses needle and thread, what is it if it’s not embroidery?
