Flowers are expensive

Chapter 244 Going to the Night Market 1
"The maidservant was shocked when she heard it! She dared to say this, I'm afraid she had agreed with the prince."

"That's why I'm worried!" Mrs. You sipped her tea and said, "Dali Kingdom doesn't just say it's easy to appease. The new emperor has just ascended the throne, so I can't figure out what his attitude towards Jingyou City is. If Yuan Yin Provoking conflicts at this time hurts the harmony between Da Song and Da Li, and the trouble cannot be resolved with an apology."

"My lord has always been considerate in everything. Since he can bring his new wife back, he must have a thorough plan."

"Cough! You don't understand, the little girl hasn't experienced the love between children," Madam You said with a smile and waved her hands, "Then once you get into a situation, you can't escape even if you try your best. Yuan Yin used to be thoughtful in his work, but he is not so thoughtful this time. If he is infatuated with his heart, he will be in trouble. The mirror table is not an easy master. By the way, the people from Banner's mansion Where do you live, did the steward Zeng send someone to inquire about it?"

"My servant doesn't know, so I'll send someone to ask Steward Zeng. Is Madam going to invite him to the residence to meet Princess Xuan?"

"We have to meet each other due to etiquette. As for the matter of meeting Jingtai, Yuan Yin will have to come back to talk about it. He said before leaving last time that Jingtai is not allowed to see outsiders without his orders. You go and tell Steward Zeng that you can find it." That young master's residence, please come and sit at the mansion tomorrow, so as to save face."

"Yes, servant girl, let's go!"

Dong'er withdrew from the Nuan Pavilion, called Suying, and ordered to find Butler Zeng.At this time, Gan Lan came over and asked with a smile, "Sister Dong'er, I heard that the new wife got angry in the warm pavilion just now, and scolded Ah Jin and everyone!"

Dong'er glanced at Kalan's head and said, "Who are you listening to nonsense? The new wife is a gentleman, so why would she scold Ah Jinyu? You should stop gossiping, and be careful that the new wife will not be happy."

Su Ying interjected: "What title does the lord want to give her? I'm a bit confused when I keep shouting about Mrs. You all day long."

Dong'er said: "That's not what you should ask, so go ahead and do whatever you want! It's up to the prince to give her any title."

"Ouch," Gan Lan touched Dong'er with her arm and said, "Sister Dong'er, why are you so tight-lipped? Mrs. You must have said that, right? Mrs. You understands the prince's thoughts best, I guess the prince will give her a The title of side concubine."

"That's not easy," Suying shook her head and said, "I just heard that she is a village woman, how can she become a side concubine? Is that side concubine anyone can do? It has to be reported to the court and issued a pamphlet. How should I report her background when reporting to the imperial court? Is it possible to write about a certain village girl?"

Dong'er hurriedly patted the two of them a few times and said, "The more you talk, the more outrageous you are! You are not allowed to discuss these things in private! The new wife has only been in the mansion for a few days, what do you think? There is the prince's suggestion, please worry about him? Hurry up and go to work!"

Suying stuck out her tongue and quickly left the yard.After she left, Gan Lan reached out and grabbed Dong'er who was about to leave, smiled flatteringly and said, "Sister Dong'er, please do me a favor."

"What's the matter, tell me quickly, Madam is still waiting!"

"Miss Dong'er is like this. Yesterday I heard Chun'er complain that she couldn't serve her new wife by herself. She doesn't know many things! She has never served our wife before, so there must be mistakes. What she meant was, I want to find someone to help her."

Dong'er glanced at Gan Lan, sighed softly, and said, "You made up this story yourself, right?"

"No! No!" Cabbage hurriedly waved his hands.

"Kalan, are you tired of working in our wife's yard? Why do you have to serve the new wife?"

Gan Lan said with some embarrassment: "I don't mean that much, I'm just afraid that Chun'er will not be able to serve you well. We are sisters, so please help if you can! Serving with our wife is naturally the easiest, and I don't complain pass!"

"Kanlan, I advise you to calm down!" Dong'er said in a persuasive tone.

"Sister Dong'er, what do you mean? I'll just say it for Chun'er, there's no other meaning."

"Be your girl with peace of mind! Don't put your mind too high or too far, it won't do you any good."

"Sister Dong'er..."

"You can understand what I said. I don't want to talk too much about some things. Isn't it good to live in peace and order? It's a good thing to get ahead? You and I have been in this mansion for so many years, what are you planning? Can't I see it? I just said it here today, even if you go to serve the new wife, the prince may not look at you directly. "

Kale's face instantly turned red.

Dong'er didn't say any more, just glanced at Kalan's swollen cheeks, turned and left.As soon as she left, Cabbage's face turned even redder.The little plan in my heart suddenly came out to her, and Kalan was so ashamed that she really had nowhere to find a crack in the ground!

Cabbage went back to her room angrily, and sat in it for a long time.It wasn't until a little girl came to call her that she lazily replied: "What are you doing? I'm not the only one alive and kicking in this courtyard. Do you have to come to me for anything?"

The little girl said: "Sister Gan Lan, Sister Dong'er asked you to go to the warm pavilion."

"Sister Dong'er?" Hearing this address, Gan Lan felt uncomfortable in every possible way.She opened the door and glanced outside, then asked the little girl with a straight face: "What did she call me? Did the lady call me or she called me, please explain clearly! She is not a serious master, order me what I do?"

Seeing that Kalan's expression was wrong, the little girl hurriedly explained: "It's Madam who wants to sort out the fabrics that have been accumulated for many years, and wants to pick out some soft textures for Miss Long to make clothes. Sister Dong'er asked me to call you. Sister Ganlan, Who upset you?"

Gan Lan closed the door angrily and said, "I'm just a little girl, so what if someone makes me unhappy? It's not the new wife or Princess Xuan over there, it doesn't matter that much!"

The little girl didn't dare to ask any more questions, and walked away quickly.When Gan Lan came to the warm pavilion, she saw Mrs. You opened three or four suitcases, letting Dong'er sort them out like Wuye.Gan Lan glanced at Dong'er, leaned forward and said, "Why is Madam tidying up the clothes today?"

Mrs. You sat on the couch next to her and said, "Suddenly remembered it, so I took it out and tidied it up. Many of the clothes have never been used, some have been seen once, and some have not even bothered to look at them. It's a waste of time. It happens that Lihua and Cuiyue are here, I want to pick a few good ones and give them to them, take the rest you like, and donate the rest."

Gan Lan took the lotus-colored brocade from Wu Ye's hand, handed it to Mrs. You and said with a smile, "Look, ma'am, the color of this brocade is elegant, and it is the most suitable for the new lady. She has a very good complexion, and she wears this brocade." Clothes must be fresh and refined."

Madam You looked down, and said with a smile: "Indeed! I remember that this brocade seemed to be bought for me by Hu Po from the capital. I only used half of the good satin, and this half is left. The color match Pear Blossom is just right, you can put it over there and send it to Pear Blossom later."

"Yes," Gan Lan replied with a smile, "Madam, don't worry, I'll send the slaves to the new Madam after I've selected them."

As soon as the words finished, Dong'er suddenly raised her head from the side of the suitcase and said, "Let Wu Ye go later! Kalan is still going to Miss Que Ling."

Gan Lan was stunned for a moment, her face was a little upset, but she couldn't bear to have a fit in front of Mrs. You, so she asked with a smile, "What's wrong with Miss Que Ling?"

"Don't you know how to order massage? Miss Que Ling is sore, so I want you to go over and give her a massage."

"Oh... I see." Cabbage reluctantly agreed.She rolled her eyelids and gave Dong'er a sneaky look, wondering if this girl was deliberately embarrassing herself?Knowing that he wanted to go to the new wife's side, he still stopped him!

After finishing packing up the clothes, Wuye led a little girl to the east courtyard.After entering the courtyard gate, a burst of laughter came from the room on the second floor, which sounded like the voices of Lihua and Chun'er.When the two came to the door of the room, Chun'er happened to be walking out. Seeing them, she smiled and asked, "Sister Wuye is here? Is it a delivery?"

Wu Ye nodded and said, "Mrs. You ordered me to send clothes to Mrs. Xin and Miss Long."

"Then come in!" Lihua laughed loudly in the room, "It happens that there are two more people here, so it will be fun to play!"

Wuye entered the room and saw the drums and flowers on the table, so she knew they were playing drums and passing flowers.After she explained the clothes to Lihua and Cuiyue, Lihua pulled her to sit down.She was always fun, so she asked, "How do you play?"

"Whoever wins, put books under his feet, pile them up layer by layer!" Li Hua pointed to the stack of books next to her.Wuye turned her head and saw that it seemed to be books brought from the prince's study, she said: "Madam, these books are all from the prince's study, it's not good to use them as a stepping stone?"

When Chun'er collected the clothes and came out, she heard this and was silent, looking at Lihua.Lihua said with an indifferent expression: "I see these books are new, and I haven't even read them once, so it can be seen that their owners don't like them very much. The books are bought and not read, and there are rats in the corner of the pile. It’s better to use it for us to play! You don’t have to worry so much, he came back and blamed me!”

Wuye nodded and smiled, and then several people started playing around.In addition to Cuiyue, Wuye Chun'er and three other little girls had a great time playing with Lihua.For a moment, Wuye actually forgot to go back and report back.Mrs. You didn't see Wuye back for a long time, so she ordered Gan Lan to ask a question.

When Kalan walked to the door, she happened to see Wuye slipping from a stack of books and fell to the ground, and she laughed heartily.She got up while laughing and said, "Please ask Madam for favors! I can't stand on such a tall pile of books, and I will be crippled if I fall again!"

Everyone in the room burst out laughing.Cuiyue suddenly saw Kalan at the door, and called out: "Ganlan, what's the matter?"

Gan Lan glanced at the books on the ground, walked in and said to Wu Ye, "Wu Ye, you're only focused on playing, and you even forgot to return to life? Madam is waiting over there!"

Wu Ye still had a red smile on her face, picked up a cup of tea on the table and took a hasty sip, and said to Li Hua: "That's right! I just remember to play, and I forgot about the business! New lady, I will meet you another day Let's play with you!"

"I'm having a good time, and it won't be so lively after leaving!" Lihua said to Kalan, "Please go back and tell the nanny, I'll borrow the turnip leaves for a long time, and I will return them to her before dark, she must not Will not agree."

"Yes, ma'am!" Cabbage glanced at Wuye with some dissatisfaction.

"What's the matter?" Lihua noticed the trace of dissatisfaction in Kalan's eyes and asked, "Is there any difficulty? If you don't want to tell me, I'll ask Chun'er to tell the wet nurse."

Gan Lan hurriedly shook her head and said, "No, Ma'am, I misunderstood. The slaves won't bother you anymore, so I'll go back and report back!" She didn't dare to delay after she finished speaking, turned around and left the room in a hurry.She had just walked downstairs when Wuye and the others laughed and laughed, which made her feel very unhappy.She turned her head to look at the second floor, said with pursed lips, "Go ahead and play, you'll only be able to see it later!"

When it was almost evening, Wuye saw that it was getting late, so she went back to Mrs. You's side first.Lihua talked with Cuiyue for a while, and agreed to go shopping around the city tomorrow.Afterwards, the two went to Mrs. You's warm pavilion for dinner.After the meal, Lihua personally sent Cuiyue out of the mansion, saw her get into the sedan chair, and then prepared to leave in peace.

Just as Lihua turned her head, there was a sudden bang in the sky not far away, and a beautiful fiery tree and silver flower bloomed.She looked back and said with a smile: "Whose house is setting off fireworks! Someone set off fireworks before the end of the year."
