Chapter 67 The Greedy Man
"You're welcome! If you don't feel sorry, you can repay it later! Young Master, I have long disliked Yu Wenqing. I had a rare chance to punish her yesterday. Haha, Young Master was laughing in his dreams last night!" Bu Yu said carelessly. road.

Pei Minglan couldn't help laughing too.

"It's you." Bu Yu gave Pei Minglan a straight look, "That woman is a lunatic, whoever catches and bites whoever she catches, you still have to be more careful when she comes out of grounding!"

It was rare for Bu Yu to say a word seriously, Pei Minglan was grateful in her heart, raised her eyebrows and sneered: "I'm not easy to bully! Just relying on my status as a princess, she can't do anything to me!"

And all she has is the status of a princess!

Does she have advanced things like IQ, strategy, and scheming?

Bu Yu was also overjoyed, his eyes lit up and he slapped the table with great interest: "Okay! That's great! Don't be afraid of her, I'm here!"

Pei Minglan "Puchi!" smiled.

She didn't dare to keep Bu Yu in Chuxiu Palace for too long, this is a place of wrongdoing, don't be careless at any time, it is not a child's play for trouble to fall from the sky, she said a few more words and urged Bu Yu to leave.

Bu Yu glanced at her full of resentment, but for some reason, this unreasonable and reckless master, the little father-in-law, couldn't show his full potential when he met Pei Minglan.

Even though he felt resentful and didn't want to leave at all, he still stood up with an "oh" involuntarily.

"Hey," before leaving, Bu Yu suddenly asked Pei Minglan with a smile, "Are you participating in the draft because you want to become a concubine in the harem?"

After hearing these words, Pei Minglan subconsciously thought of Yuwen Yuanzhen, and felt disgusted in her heart, and said disgustedly: "How is that possible!"

Bu Yu didn't feel that there was anything outrageous about these words, but he was happy, and said with a smile: "Not bad! You have vision!"

After finishing talking, I went happily.

Leaving Pei Minglan confused and discerning?What does it mean?
July [-]th is a very important festival among the people. For ghosts and gods, people in this world will not deny their existence even if they are disrespectful, and the vast majority of people firmly believe in the way of ghosts and gods.

I don't know how many ghosts are coiled in the deep palace. Every July [-]th, the palace ladies and eunuchs and even the concubines in the palace will put a few hand-made river lanterns in the amulet.

The lotus-shaped river lantern is the size of a bowl and comes in various colors. A half-finger-long candle is lit in the middle, and it is gently placed in the lotus, letting it flow slowly with the water. It is at the end of the lotus in the northwest corner of the palace. It flows into the underground river, and then from the underground river to the Jinshui River outside the palace.

When thousands of river lanterns gather together, thousands of lights shine like a galaxy, flowing slowly and magnificently.

It's just that on such a special day, when the night is dark and windy, this magnificent scenery seems a little weird and creepy to people's eyes for no reason.

So every night, after the maids and eunuchs set off the river lanterns, most of them turned around and left, only a few stayed to enjoy the rare beauty this year.

The day before the [-]th of July, it happened to be a rest day for the show girls. A servant girl from the Siyiku sent dozens of pure-color silks and satins without patterns, bamboo strips, thin silk threads, pastes, etc. early in the morning. All the beautiful women also share a piece of each to make river lanterns.

This was the first activity in the palace that the beautiful women participated in after entering the palace. Everyone was full of novelty and curiosity, chatting and joking, and the atmosphere was so enthusiastic that it did not fit the festival at all.

Pei Minglan reached out to touch the fabrics, glanced at about twenty pieces of fabrics stacked on several large tables in the hall, and ridiculed her eyes.

The aunt in charge of the Siyiku?Isn't it Aunt Li who used to take care of the housework under her!
Concubine Lin really knows how to use people, Qingmang is used to handle things that are not visible and easy to attract hatred; Shi Min pretends to be a good guy with a smiley face, and is in charge of inquiring about news; Half the purse!
Her courage is really getting bigger and bigger.Even the money for this idea of ​​fabric is greedy!
Although this material feels good to the touch and is better than the clothes cut by ordinary people, but this material is not qualified to appear in the palace.

The expenses in the palace have always been very particular, and even the ordinary palace people wear high-quality goods specially made by Jiangnan weaving and Jiangning weaving.

The obvious reason is that the servants of the royal family are different from the servants of ordinary people. Their image represents the image of the royal family, and they are dressed in tatters. Wouldn't it be detrimental to the royal family's face to let the wives and ministers see them?
Moreover, it is also bad luck!How could the dignified prosperous age care about such a small cost?
In fact, the better the purchase, the higher the price can be, and the greater the profit for certain people.

A piece of Gebu is only three or four renminbi, and the market price of a piece of high-quality silk is at least 20 taels. If you play a little bit, raise the price while lowering the quality, which one will make more money?A fool can count this account!

The piece of material in front of me is obviously a defective product obtained from outside, and the quantity is wrong.

What the palace pays attention to is royal dignity and ostentation, and the word "waste" never exists.

In addition, the things were sent to beautiful women, in order to show respect in front of these beautiful women, Pei Minglan dared to conclude that the quota reported in the palace must be one piece of material for each beautiful woman, instead of cutting a piece by each person so petty!
Even this has to be skipped, I don't know if Lin Xuezhi is too talented or Aunt Ling is too talented!
Although Pei Minglan knew it well, she didn't intend to make any fuss about it.

With such a small amount of money, if you really want to covet it, it's only a matter of a thousand taels, and you can't bring down Lin Xuezhi——Pei Minglan doesn't believe that they didn't hold back the slightest when they did this, maybe it's not a thousand taels when they find out Two, but one 200 taels.

If that's the case, even Aunt Ling will only be punished.

In fact, among the eunuchs and aunts in charge of the palace, who is not greedy?As long as it is not too much, no matter if it is Yuwen Yuanzhen or the Empress Dowager, they will turn a blind eye and close their eyes and take it seriously!

When the water is clear, there will be no fish, and if there is no sweetness to eat, can the servants work hard?

Be greedy, be greedy!Pei Minglan sneered in her heart: The more greedy the better!The more greedy you are, the worse you will die!

July [-], to Pei Minglan, is more special than others.

Because, she used to be a ghost, a ghost floating between yin and yang, which is immortal.

For the first Ghost Festival after Huanyang's rebirth, she was extremely devout in her heart.

The long lotus can't be seen at a glance. Pei Minglan picked a middle section that is neither remote nor conspicuous, lit a candle piously, folded her hands together and prayed silently. The lamps lowered down the river one by one, gently paddling the water surface, causing shallow ripples, pushing the river lamps away slowly.

Pei Minglan was about to leave, but she didn't want to—
