Chapter 16 The money is here
Until Nangong Yun swaggered away, Nangong Chenglin still couldn't believe what he heard. He always didn't pay much attention to this concubine's daughter. A while ago, because of the repentance of his marriage by the Pingnan General's Mansion, he was completely disappointed with this daughter. Therefore, when he heard that she jumped off a cliff and committed suicide in a moment of embarrassment and anger, he only felt that she had ruined the reputation of the Xiangfu, and he was not a bit sad.

But she didn't die, and she was rescued by His Royal Highness Qi Wang because of a blessing in disguise, and he took a fancy to her, so, it was a blessing in misfortune.Lord Qi is deeply favored by the emperor, and holds a powerful soldier in his hand, so he plays an important role in the court. If his prime minister's mansion is lucky enough to be married to Prince Qi's mansion, then he will be the old father-in-law of His Royal Highness. Who would dare covet the position of his prime minister?
Thinking of this, a slight smile appeared on Nangong Chenglin's cold and solemn face, and he raised his voice, "The housekeeper."

The housekeeper trotted in, bowed his body and asked the master what orders he had. Nangong Chenglin put his hands behind his back and said, "Send all the boxes of gold, silver and jewels and the few bolts of silk and satin that His Royal Highness Qi Wang sent to Fourth Miss, quickly." go."

The housekeeper thought he had heard it wrong, so he asked again cautiously: "Master, I didn't understand, which lady are you talking about?"

Nangong Chenglin stared: "Miss Si, do you hear clearly now?"

The housekeeper responded in fright, and hurriedly ran to do some errands with small steps, puzzled in his heart, the master never asked Miss Fourth before, what happened today?
Meng's complexion darkened, and she stopped her way: "My lord, the things my lord gave are so heavy, can she bear them like a girl?"

Nangong Chenglin waved his hand impatiently, "A woman's opinion. What do you know? The prince made such a big deal, so it can be seen that what Yun'er said is true. If she can really marry into Qiwang's mansion, it will definitely be a great thing for my career. If you are like a tiger with wings added, what are a few boxes of jewelry?"

Seeing that Nangong Chenglin had already made up his mind to get married, Mrs. Meng didn't dare to say anything more, and silently offered him more tea.

Nangong Chenglin took a sip of tea, and seemed to be in a very good mood. Meng shi was cruel, and a smile formed on the corner of her mouth, and she proposed flatteringly: "Master, I see that there is only a girl in Shengxia beside Yun'er, which is really too few. I can't take care of many places, why don't I send two maids from my room, it's a little bit of my mother's kindness."

Nangong Chenglin was really overjoyed after hearing this, patted her hand and said in a good voice: "You have always handled these matters properly, I am the most at ease, I will do as you said, thank you Madam."

There was a docile smile on Meng's face, but there was a trace of coldness in his eyes, which was only fleeting.

-

The afternoon sun was very soft, Nangong Yun washed her hair, it was not completely dry yet, the waterfall-like hair was hanging behind her head, soft and smooth, black and shiny.Sheng Xia gently combed her hair with a wooden comb, while Nangong Yun lazily bathed her entire face in the sunlight, the atmosphere was peaceful and peaceful.

Hearing the sound of hurried footsteps, Nangong Yun opened his eyes, and saw the housekeeper leading all the servants and two beautiful maids rushing over, and hurriedly saluted a few feet away from her: "Slaves, send your regards to Miss Fourth."

Nangong Yun smiled faintly, this is really strange, the housekeepers who used to walk sideways when they saw her, and the servants who ignored her, now kneel down in front of her tremblingly, she is really not used to it.

These servants have always followed the wind and followed the wind, worshiping the high and stepping on the low. She was sober in her heart and didn't bother to argue with them. She just raised her hand to signal them to get up, and asked the housekeeper, "What are they holding in their hands?"

The butler ordered the boys who lowered their heads and wished they could plunge their heads into the ground to take a few steps forward, and lifted the veil over it. Under the sunlight, the gold, silver and jewels were shining brightly, which was incomparably dazzling.

Nangong Yun signaled that Sheng Xia didn't need to comb her hair anymore, she stood up and looked at it, a smile flickered across the corner of her mouth, she was worried that she had no capital, so someone eagerly gave her money.

Nangong Yun stepped forward and glanced roughly with his eyes, knowingly asked: "Housekeeper, what does this mean?"

The steward said respectfully: "This is a great gift from His Royal Highness King Qi. The master ordered that all of them be sent to Miss Fourth, so that you can take care of them. In addition, the two maids were chosen by Da Furen herself to serve Miss Fourth. You two, hurry up and greet the master."

The two girls kept their heads down, stepped forward and knelt down, and kowtowed: "My servant pays homage to Miss Fourth."

Nangong Yun was still not used to people kneeling and kowtowing to her, and almost couldn't help but help them up, but due to his current status, he had no choice but to accept their gift "righteously", pretending to be calm: "There is no need to be formal, Get up."

The two girls stood up in response, perhaps because they were shy, but they never raised their heads.

Nangong Yun had no choice but to say: "You all raise your heads and let me see."

The two obeyed their orders and raised their heads slowly, but there was no timidity in their eyes, after all, they came out of the eldest lady's room and were used to seeing the world.

Nangong Yun took a look at them, and said with a chuckle: "I don't need so many people to serve, but it's okay to find someone to be a company for Sheng Xia. Since my mother has sent them over, I'll keep one. You two , who wants to follow me?"

Without any hesitation, the two replied in unison: "I am willing."

Answering the expected rules, Nangong Yun asked again: "In your opinion, how should I deal with these things that my father rewarded me?"

A girl in beige clothes said first: "In my humble opinion, this servant thinks that the fourth lady can keep half of the silver and confiscate the other half, to show that the fourth lady values ​​her family and doesn't care about money; as for jewelry, the fourth lady can Give some to the second and third misses to show sisterhood; for these cloths, the fourth miss can order the tailors in the house to make clothes, honor the elders, and talk about filial piety."

Nangong Yun nodded approvingly, "As expected of the person who has been with mother for a long time, he understands human feelings, understands the world, and is impeccable." Then he asked the girl in blue clothes, "What do you think?"

The girl pursed her lips, and said: "I don't understand this, I can only serve others. The young lady is smart, she has her own thoughts and arrangements for everything, and the servant is obedient, and dare not presume to make decisions for the young lady. Instead, the servant thinks, Since the master personally rewarded it, the young lady just accept it."

The girl in beige couldn't help but sneered, seeing Nangong Yun glance at her coldly, she quickly suppressed her smile.

Nangong Yun turned around, pointed to the girl in beige clothes, and said to the housekeeper: "Just do as she said just now, and besides, choose the best piece of these fabrics to make a suit for the old lady, and send the rest to the housekeeper. Go to the room of the second and third misses."

"Yes." The housekeeper answered, raised his head and asked again: "Then, these two girls..."

In fact, it’s useless to ask. Since the fourth lady has adopted her suggestion, she must keep the beige clothes. The girl has a plan in mind. She was about to salute Nangong Yun again, but she heard Nangong Yun pointing at the girl in the blue clothes. : "I want her."

What?The two girls stared in disbelief.
