The little princess tames the prince

Chapter 25
The candlelight flickered a few times, Aunt Shi listened attentively, Luhua packed two brocade boxes in her hands, and there were two kinds of work in the boxes.Packing up her clothes, she said: "The prince gave orders, and the whole family called out girls, and also said that the prince gave orders, and the clothes for the Dragon Boat Festival are bright red..."

As I said, the box was also tidied up. The surface of the box was originally satin embroidered with magnolia and peony flowers. Aunt Shi took out some beads and asked the green flowers to sew on it.Luhua cut off the last thread, and showed the box to Aunt Shi: "This bead looks even better when used as a flower core, but we don't have any. It's only a few months of silver in a month, and filial piety can't be compared with Aunt Shui. .”

Aunt Shi also understood in her heart: "The money that Aunt Shui used to give to the family as a reward is also included in the money bought for Mrs. Shui. I heard something in a daze, saying that the prince has been here for a year, and the outside world is not peaceful. These early days The officials of the aristocratic family who are rooted here, the prince has not yet subdued. At this time of chaos, Mr. Shui can just find an official position, and he is devoted to the prince. Think about it, if the girl comes to be favored, Mr. Shui will be good. Give me a sum?"

Lu Hua also nodded, and Aunt Shi sighed again: "See, I'm not right. If you can't be favored, you can live in Feihua Pavilion. That's the place the prince said he likes the most, but he thinks it's too small, so he won't." Permanent residence." Speaking of this, she felt that she was talking too much, Aunt Shi stopped her mouth, held the brocade box in her hand and looked at it again, and said to Luhua: "Put it up, we can't see you today, wait for the fifth day of the family banquet, and there will be more For a few days, I was really anxious. If there is an idea to meet in these few days, we will send this. Although this bead is the only one we have, if you tidy it up like this, it will be a great gift from Master Shui Go, it won't make us look too light." The master and servant packed up here, Aunt Shi fell asleep, and Lu Hua blew out the headlights, leaving only one candlestick behind to go to sleep.

In another yard a few hundred meters away, Aunt Shui was sitting in her room obediently, and it was her girl Hongyu who was replying: "The boy who spread the message is hateful. He came back after playing with a few people. The second door is closed and you can't get in." The gatekeeper's mother is his aunt, so word came in. My uncle said, Mr. Lu, who is in charge of the money, is still arrogant with the prince. The prince must have annoyed Mr. Lu after he endured him for a year. This is the uncle's contention. It’s a good opportunity for an official position, my uncle wants to take care of the prince’s money, so why don’t you show respect to our future concubine, my uncle said don’t be too busy, let’s wait and see for a few days.”

Aunt Shui in the water green shirt laughed: "My brother is able to hold on, but it's too stable. The prince went to pick him up in person, and he came back with him. The street was quiet. In the evening, there was a banquet in the main hall, and the clothes and jewelry were What else does he want to see about the clothes of the concubine Yanju? It is better to send the filial piety to him early. You go home tomorrow and tell him whether the concubine is favored or not. We don’t know yet. But the monks from outside can read scriptures , The first few days are always kissy. There is another little girl, only 14 years old. At 14 years old, there are people who are sensible and married and run the house, and there are people who don't understand. Let him send it first, and if he can talk later, Just send it on.”

Hong Yu whispered: "It's not that I said the same thing, it's just that my uncle doesn't believe my aunt's words at all. I think my aunt is a woman, and this is what uncles, uncles, and wives know best," Hong Yu imitated Mrs. Shui's tone : "Don't worry about other things, just serve the prince well." Aunt Shui smiled, she was shaking the round fan in her hand, so she used the round fan to light Hong Yuxu a few times, and smiled brightly under the candle: "You This little hoof, like my elder brother and sister-in-law."

Shaking the round fan a few more times, Aunt Shui thought about her elder brother and sister-in-law, and only felt that she was a woman who didn't know everything outside, and knew that the prince is not a person who listens softly to the people next to the pillow. Master Shui and his wife have always warned their sister, Take good care of me.Thinking of this, Aunt Shui couldn't help but let out a deep breath.

Hearing this quiet sound, Hong Yu was also worried when he heard it. He looked at the candlelight on the small table and said to Aunt Shui: "Auntie, you said, the prince has been in Beijing for a few months, and he finally came back. Why didn't he come?" Let's come here in this yard. Could it be that we entered the mansion for the girl, and the prince made it for her to see?"

Concubine Shui felt sad when she heard it, and she was looking forward to waiting for the prince to come back. He rested in the study that night and did not go to Concubine Shi's. Who knows what he meant.Hong Yu was already frowning, and Aunt Shui could only pretend to smile: "If you want to show it to the girl, she will have such ability when she enters the house. Besides, the prince is not a person who listens to women, he always fights, the prince Listen to the military plane going."

"Oh, it's really worrying for the girl to enter the mansion." Hong Yu was worried for the master for no reason.Aunt Shui was made more bitter by her, put down the round fan in her hand, and smiled at Hong Yu: "If you don't come now, the prince will never come, let's go to sleep."

The night became quieter, Hong Yu waited for Aunt Shui to enter the room, and looked out of the window from time to time, but the stars were shining and the moon was dim, but there was never a knock on the courtyard door, nor was there a voice at the courtyard door.The prince really won't come today.

When the future little princess enters the mansion, everyone has their own thoughts.It's the real sister herself, why didn't she think about it, she couldn't sleep well that night.When it was nearly dawn, I took a nap, and saw the sky light on the window paper in a daze, so I hurriedly sat up.

After the green pipes were ready to bloom, Hong Jian led the girls in and said, "It's still early, girl, don't worry about it, let's sleep for a while."

Sister Zhen refused to sleep, so she asked Hong Jian to fetch her clothes.The breakfast is served, although it is not like yesterday's flowing water noodles, it is also three or four kinds of porridge, five or six kinds of dim sum, plus seven or eight kinds of side dishes.The porridge is placed aside to be eaten as you like, and there are no more than four dim sums, all of which are so small that they don't take up space; the side dishes are also white porcelain plates only three inches wide.Just like this, a table was also set up. Sister Zhen had eaten alone, and felt that this was still too extravagant.

After the meal, the girls asked Zhenjie to go out of the yard for a walk, so that Zhenjie could enjoy the yard.Most of the courtyard is not tall flowers and trees, lush.A few peach trees bloomed into patches, the apricot trees were slightly taller, and the red clouds were like dyed red clouds.Sister Zhen sighed: "There are so many flowers here." On the big wooden shelf in the corner of the courtyard, there are roses blooming all over the place, mixed with green leaves like a woody fragrance. If you want to bloom a white flower in summer, it will be very fragrant.

"Miss, look there." Hong Jian pointed to a plaque on the gate of the courtyard, on which were written three words: "Flying Flower Pavilion." Sister Zhen Yanran: "This name is appropriate, I think there are flowers."
