Flowers are expensive

Chapter 350 Sending the Dowry 2
Yuan Yin also shook his shoulders with a smile, and asked, "Do you want more?"

Xi Xi drank the bowl of chicken soup in one breath, stared at Yuan Yin with bulging cheeks and said, "No need, let me save some expenses for you, my lord! You just want to be jealous and don't need money?"

"Miss Liang," Dong'er, who couldn't stop laughing, bent over to help her, "Get up quickly! It's cold sitting on the ground! I've already asked Suying to fetch a jar of candied fruit. You can put two in your mouth to make it feel better." some!"

Xixi stood up, took the candied fruit jar from Suying, and quickly stuffed a few into her mouth.At this time, Dong'er went around and pulled Zhong Shi and said: "Ms. Zhong, save the gossip for later, let's go eat first!" up.

Finally, the meal was finally finished.Xixi wanted to see Meng Furu, so Yuan Yin asked Que Ling to take her to the west courtyard, while he left with Yan Amber.After all the people in the yard had dispersed, Mrs. Zhong pulled Tang Xuanzhen into the room, and asked anxiously, "Grandma, who is that girl?"

Tang Xuanzhen sat down on the dressing table and said angrily, "How would I know!"

"You are in the palace, how could you not know! I looked at the scene on the table just now... Oh, I'm afraid there is something wrong!"

"What do I have to do with anything?" Tang Xuanzhen took off the hairpin on her head and patted it on the dressing table, then turned her head and said to Zhong Shi, "It has nothing to do with you! After this meal today, don't come to the palace anymore. I'm going to leave here anyway!"

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Zhong became even more anxious, stepped forward and coaxed: "Have you not passed the door yet? Don't worry, don't worry..."

"You go, can you?" Tang Xuanzhen said angrily.

"Zhen'er, how can you leave the palace at this juncture? You have to plan for yourself while that girl has no status!"

"What's the plan? Go kneeling and beg the prince to accept me?"

"Isn't Mrs. You willing to help?"

"But the prince told Sister You that he would not accept me, and he would send me away with a dowry!" Tang Xuanzhen was so angry that tears came out of her eyes.

"What... what? Did you get sent away for the dowry? Madam You didn't say a few words for you?"

Tang Xuanzhen sneered and said: "Sister You is very kind and wants the prince to accept me, but I am not so lucky to be the mistress of this palace! You can see that even Banna Jingtai has become arrogant. I am in this palace. Is there any place to stand here? Bena Jingtai is right, no matter how bad she is, she is still a princess in name, and what about me? Mrs. You's daughter-in-law? Huh, what is it?"

"Good girl, good Zhen'er, don't worry, Rong Niang will think of a way for you!"

"What's the idea? After all, isn't it just those disgusting ideas?"

Zhong covered her mouth, glanced out and said, "Stop yelling, are you afraid people won't hear you? This is the situation now, if you don't use any tricks, you are still as honest as before. I'm afraid I'm really going to be kicked out! Look at that girl's mouth, it's not easy! Mother's methods are a bit rough, but you can always let the prince give you a name, right?"

"I haven't done that yet!" Tang Xuanzhen pushed away Zhong's hand, turned her back and wiped away her tears.

Mrs. Zhong went around to her, and said anxiously: "That's not called low work, that's called tricks! Could it be that you really want to go back to the temple alone to be a sister-in-law? It's fine if you didn't meet the prince earlier, but now you have. , go back to be a sister-in-law, have you done it? In the end, you are not full of resentment? Mother understands, you want the prince to love you, love you, and marry you again, but you have also seen that the prince's heart is not with you now, so run away Miss Liang has gone there. If you don't want to find a way to stay in the palace, where can you talk about a hundred years of friendship with the prince?"

Tang Xuanzhen turned away again, crying without saying a word.Mrs. Zhong went around again, sat on the embroidered pier and persuaded earnestly: "Let me tell you, I am someone who has experienced it, and I can see it better than you! Yes, the prince doesn't like you now, but who can say for sure what will happen in the future?" What kind of game is it? You have to find a way to stay first! According to the temperament of the prince, if you can bear a child for him, he will never let you out of the palace in this life. As long as you have a child..."

"Where am I going to have a child?" Tang Xuanzhen interrupted Zhong Shi and said, "You don't come here! I won't use the methods you said!"

"Why don't you listen? Ouch!" Zhong patted the table and said anxiously, "You just want to see the lord and the Liang girl have a good relationship for a hundred years? You go back to the temple alone to visit the Qingdeng Ancient Buddha? Are you aggrieved?" The stomach is wronged, can the prince know? Didn’t you suffer yourself in the end? What’s wrong with getting a child? After all, it’s the son of the prince. If you give birth to it, the prince may be grateful to you! Wait until the surname Liang is not favored When the time comes, the prince will know that he is coming back to you! Stupid!"

At this moment, Gan Lan opened the door and walked in, saying, "Ms. Zhong, madam, please go over and talk!"

"Okay, I'll go right now!"

Mrs. Zhong comforted Tang Xuanzhen a few more words, and then went to Mrs. You's place.After entering the outer room and sitting down, Mrs. Zhong asked with a smile: "Madam, please forgive me for asking too much, who is that Miss Liang just now?"

You Xian'er smiled, and asked back: "Ms. Zhong, who do you look like?"

Zhong shook his head repeatedly and said, "I can't see it!"

"Aunt Zhong is someone who has been here before, so she should be able to see it clearly. Although that girl is not famous now, it will be a matter of time before she enters the door."

"Ouch!" Zhong immediately said with a sad face, "Then what about our Zhen'er? Could it be that the girl can't tolerate our Zhen'er? Madam, you love Zhen'er, and say a few words for Zhen'er in front of that girl. Can’t you just say good things? Anyway, from now on, we, Zhen’er, will respect her and always put her first, do you think it’s okay?”

Dong'er on the side couldn't help a mocking smile on his face, and interjected: "Ms. Zhong's words are a bit out of place. Madam just said that Miss Liang is not yet named, so she can talk about it wherever she wants." If you can't tolerate it? If you can't tolerate it, then the prince can't tolerate it, do you think it's reasonable?"

Mrs. Zhong was a little embarrassed, and hurriedly said with a sneer: "It's because I was quick-talking and out of proportion, but I was also impatient! You should see how my Zhen'er treats the prince and cares about the prince's mansion for your wife. You have to be clear! It's not that I just want to climb high, I also have self-knowledge. We are such a small family that we can't afford to climb high in the palace, but it was Madam who said that she wanted Xuanzhen to be the concubine of the prince. , to spread branches and leaves for the prince, and take care of the entire palace, we didn't even think about climbing high! Ma'am, don't you think so?"

You Xian'er and Dong'er looked at each other, smiled faintly, and said nothing.Mrs. Zhong sighed again: "Oh! Our family's Zhen'er is really suffering! I have suffered a lot without my little parents by my side! Madam, you are her noble person, you can't just leave her alone!"

Dong'er smiled slightly: "Ms. Zhong, Madam didn't say she didn't care about Miss Xuanzhen or not? Don't sigh, drink some tea, let's talk slowly."

"I can't drink it!" Zhong shook her head again and again, "Just now I was in the room looking at Xuan Zhen's appearance, it really broke my heart! Tears are tearing up, who knows who is not feeling well!"

"I want Yuan Yin to accept Xuan Zhen's affairs," You Xian'er said with a smile to Zhong Shi, "It was indeed my idea."

"Isn't it?" Zhong immediately said energetically, "I didn't dare to splash dirty water on Madam's face! Both Zhen'er and I regard you as a great benefactor! Ma'am, I'm talking too much." If so, the palace is so big, can't it accommodate our Zhen'er? Give up her aunt's status, and let her live in a small courtyard, just to raise an idler, and besides, she won't live for nothing. ! When that Miss Liang passes through the door in the future, she will be appointed to help! Don’t you think so?”

"Ms. Zhong," Dong'er continued, "You should understand that this palace is the prince's palace after all, and the wife is just the prince's wet nurse, so she is in charge of the affairs of the palace for the time being. The prince refuses to nod, madam What can I do? Dong'er also said that she is not afraid of offending Miss Xuanzhen and you, but if Miss Xuanzhen let go of this matter a little bit, would Madam still force her?"

"Miss Dong'er, what you just said..."

"Dong'er said something wrong, please forgive me, Mrs. Zhong," Dong'er said with a smile, "But you also said that Miss Xuanzhen treats the prince sincerely. If she didn't nod in front of the madam, how could the madam be reluctant to accept it? Her? If you say Madam didn't help her, then you're talking in vain. Madam took her as a concubine, Madam put a big face on it and told the prince, do you know?"

"I don't mean to blame Madam..."

"The first time I talked to the lord, the lord lifted his foot and left, which made my wife feel embarrassed. Over the years, the lord has never neglected my wife like this! The second time I talked to the lord, the lord directly She shook her head and refused. Tell me, is it because Madam doesn't help Miss Xuanzhen, or is Miss Xuanzhen herself unlucky?"

Zhong opened his mouth, but Dong'er refuted him so sharply that he couldn't utter a word.She always only knew that Dong'er was generous and decent in dealing with things, but she didn't know that this girl was so clever in speaking.

At this time, You Xian'er said: "What are you talking about? I also delayed Xuanzhen's affairs with good intentions. Mrs. Zhong, it was my own inconsideration to let Yuanyin accept Xuanzhen. You It's common sense to have complaints. Which mother doesn't love her daughter? I also have a daughter! Right? But Dong'er also said just now that this palace belongs to Yuan Yin after all, and I am a wet nurse. You can't force him to marry someone he doesn't like, can you?"

Zhong's face hung down in embarrassment, unable to say anything more.You Xian'er said again: "Dong'er, take the list and show it to Aunt Zhong."

Dong'er walked over, handed over a list and said with a smile: "My lord is not a ruthless person, thinking of Miss Tang Xuanrong's kindness in the past, and also thinking of Miss Xuanzhen's hard work for the palace for more than half a year. Developed the dowry of this list. I will show you now, and if Miss Xuanzhen gets married in the future, I will send it away."

"Dowry?" Zhong suddenly remembered what Tang Xuanrong said just now, and hurriedly took it over to have a look, ouch, hello!But a lot!Her eyeballs almost fell off!
"Besides," You Xian'er said again, "I'll also take out some from my private room to supplement her. She is my god-sister after all, so naturally I want her to marry well. But right now, she refuses to live or die. When it comes to choosing a son-in-law, you are her own mother, so you should persuade her more!"

"Yes, yes, yes," Zhong replied with a smile, "I should persuade her more! That girl is so stubborn! I really didn't expect that the prince would give her such a generous dowry!"

"Just as long as you are satisfied," Dong'er pulled back the slip from Zhong Shi's hand and said with a smile, "When Miss Xuanzhen gets married, everything on the slip will be used as a dowry, so don't worry."

Zhong hurriedly stood up, bowed and smiled, "Madam and the prince's kindness is beyond words! Don't worry, I will persuade her well!"

"Okay, let's go!"

Zhong went out of the room happily.Dong'er closed the door, turned around and said, "Madam, at the table at noon, Aunt Zhong's words were a little too much."

"I can tell, she is unwilling!" You Xian'er shook her head gently, "Then what can I do? Xuanzhen has never liked Yuan Yin, and no one can help with this matter. By the way, In a while, you prepare some gifts for her, and say that the Mid-Autumn Festival is coming, let her and her son spend the festival at home, and don't need to come to ask."
