Chapter 51

Xu's depressed Yan Xiaoqi didn't know it, she was staring at a bowl of bird's nest on the dining table in a strange way, it was the first time in her life that she had seen this kind of precious tonic.

"This is?" Yan Xiaoqi put his eyes on Xiangling.

Xiangling has a lively personality, and it is easy to establish a good relationship with the servants in the house. Yan Xiaoqi is not used to always being served by her side, so she will let her hang out and collect all kinds of gossip when she has nothing to do.

"The people in the kitchen said that it was allocated from the old lady's regulations, and that it was to make up for the young lady's body." Xiangling said this with joy, her master has face with the old lady, and these servants like them People can hold their heads up even when they go out.

"Old madam?" Yan Xiaoqi held the spoon and fiddled with it, completely unbelievable.

When she was with the old woman, she probably couldn't even compare to the air, so she didn't believe that the old woman would suddenly be kind.

But the people in the big kitchen were very tight-lipped, and Xiangling didn't say anything, and only brought back a cup of bird's nest every night.

This time, without Xu's foot restraint, Yan Xiaoqi couldn't go out by himself, and was raised in the room for half a month before he could walk around the yard with the help of the maid.

Half a month later, Yan Xiaoqi did not wait for the news of Zhang Yu's arrival at the mansion, but heard the bad news from the servants of the mansion about the main audition of Baiyun Temple to accept disciples.

Didn't he say that he wanted to accept himself as a disciple?What's going on with this audition?Yan Xiaoqi unconsciously grabbed the petals, feeling a little worried.

Xu was offended by her again, if she couldn't change her decent identity. . .Hey, she refused to think about the consequences!

"Xiangling, go and inquire about the temple master's acceptance of disciples, and tell me every word when you come back." Yan Xiaoqi finally couldn't lie down, and didn't want to raise his legs anymore.

The story of the temple master's acceptance of disciples was widely circulated in the capital, and Xiangling inquired clearly in the big kitchen when she was only picking up meals.

"Miss, the Master wrote a letter to His Majesty a few days ago, saying that he had learned something over the years, and wanted to take in another closed disciple to teach him carefully. He calculated that the disciple who was destined for him was in the city, and she was a girl who hadn't reached Ji, but he It is inconvenient to get in and out of the back house, so I want His Majesty to help him find it."

Taking in an apprentice and making such a big show, Yan Xiaoqi felt inexplicably sour in his heart. Didn't that person just say that casually that day, making fun of her?
Feeling inexplicably bitter in his heart, Yan Xiaoqi raised his head and looked at Xiangling again: "Then did you say how to help the temple master choose disciples?"

Xiangling followed Luping to set up all the lunches quickly, and waited on Yan Xiaoqi with a cloth towel: "There will be a spring banquet in Furong Garden in a few days, and all officials above rank five in the capital must bring their daughters. Divide the heirs and concubines."

No distinction between descendants and concubines? !
Doesn't she also have the opportunity to attend?Hope rekindled in Yan Xiaoqi's heart, as long as she had a chance to see Zhang Yu again, she would find a way to persuade him to give her the quota of disciples.

Hope rose in Yan Xiaoqi's heart, and her whole body's energy and spirit instantly improved a lot. The nourishment for the past few days made her thin body rounder, and her palm-sized face was so tender that water could be squeezed out. A pair of water Yingying's big eyes are always looking at others with anger and charm, causing the maids and mothers-in-law in the yard to always be fascinated and lose their minds if they don't pay attention.

The temple master chooses disciples, no matter whether they can be selected or not, it is a great honor to have the opportunity to participate in the election. Xu clutched the handkerchief, feeling extremely reluctant in her heart, but with Zhao Shu's explanation, she not only had to smile at Yan Xiao Seven, but also to buy clothes and jewelry for her.

In the past few years, the Xu family seems to have generously given Yan Xiaoqi a lot of jewelry, but most of them are outdated styles eliminated by her and Zhao Wen, and the workmanship and materials are not very good. On such a grand occasion, every Can't take out any of them.

Xu's heart was getting more and more bitter, so he could only carry the money and take Zhao Wen and Yan Xiaoqi to Linglong Pavilion to buy it carefully.

The Hou's family has a great career, and the several headed mothers are good at making a living, especially the old lady. When she got married, she was a red makeup and had countless lands.When each of the three sons got married, she privately gave Li Hou a shop and a farm, fearing that they would be short of expenses.

Zhao Shu is not good at dealing with these things. The private property given by the old lady will be handed over to Xu Shi to take care of it after marriage. After all these years, even if Xu Shi didn't have much dowry back then, he can live a very good life relying on Zhao Shu's private property. Fu Fu, this Linglong Pavilion, is a frequent visitor.

It's just that although she came here often, she only brought Zhao Wen alone. It was the first time that the shopkeeper of Linglong Pavilion saw Yan Xiaoqi. And some heavy ones were picked out, and the buddy sent them in.

Before the spring feast, families with daughters aged over 12 and under 15 will come to buy several sets of jewelry, whether it is for fashion or for dowry in the future.

Therefore, these days, Linglong Pavilion has been full of people, and the busy shopkeepers have lost weight, and many styles in the store are sold out.

Yan Xiaoqi is not good at this. He watched Xu's mother and daughter get together, discussing the thickness of gold and silver, the color of gemstones, styles and hairstyles, and the styles and colors of clothes that can be matched. , she listened, bored and just wanted to yawn.

When the shopkeeper came in, she wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, and after asking the prices one by one, she directly picked up the most expensive set.

Xu's teeth itch with hatred. . .I wanted to give her an embarrassment, okay?
With a chest pain, Mrs. Xu left Linglong Pavilion and walked into the Jinxiu Workshop next to her. She didn't dare to leave Yan Xiaoqi aside. If she didn't pay attention, Yan Xiaoqi would point her fingers and choose the most expensive piece of material. She would definitely be sideways today carried out.

It's just that the result of Xu's spending a lot of money is to confirm her reputation as a concubine. The 14-year-old girl's family entered the Linglong Pavilion for the first time, and she didn't know anything about jewelry and jade. What could be the reason? . . .

When Mrs. Xu learned about these gossip, it was already the day before the spring feast, and she dropped her favorite set of Ru kiln teacups in the room, and she was especially puzzled.

"Tell me, is that dead girl an unfamiliar white-eyed wolf! All these years, have I cut her food and drink? Are you accusing her?" Xu's hands were shaking. She didn't like concubine girls, and she was too lazy To discipline, but when has she ever been harsh.

Zhao Wen called He Xiang, fetched clean water, washed a cloth towel for Mrs. Xu and handed it to her hand: "Doesn't she think we don't care about her? After tomorrow's spring banquet is over, you can discipline her well. What about the nanny who came out of the palace?"

Mrs. Xu wiped her face: "Yes, my Wen'er is smart. I want to let her know what the aunt's discipline is. That stinky girl, don't even think about leaving the house in the future."

After hearing these few words, Zhao Shu in front of the door, under the astonished gaze of the servant girl, turned with a livid face and backed out.
