Chapter 620 The Empress Dowager’s Reward (2)
Thinking of this, the second wife felt a little melancholy in her heart, hoping that the old concubine could live a few more years, so that the foundation of their second wife would be deeper, and it would be better not to let those people underestimate them when they left the palace.

"What the old lady said is that the daughter-in-law is learning. In the past, the wife was the head of the house. The daughter-in-law still has a lot to learn in this area. She needs to ask the old lady and the wife for advice."

"I can't explain it for you, but let me say a few words. You did a good job this time." The old princess got up from the bed, stretched her muscles and bones, and the maids hurriedly moved a red sandalwood inlaid marble back chair for her. She was sitting, and the old princess sat down and took a sip of tea and said: "I invite you to come to discuss the matter of the Mid-Autumn Festival. This year, there will be no banquet at home. I told you to do it a few days ago." Have the mooncakes been arranged yet?"

"It's all arranged. It's still the same as in previous years. The servants each have a box. The kitchen is currently making it these days. The part of the gift has been counted according to the list on the gift list in previous years and sent to Xinghualou. Yes, the boss over there said that he will rush to control the number of our palace first."

"That's good. Although it's just a meaning, you can't neglect it." The old concubine asked Dongxue to enter the room, took out a few things that had been prepared in advance, and showed the concubine: "This It's for my wife, I didn't prepare anything when she came last time, but I took several big boxes of things from her."

The princess glanced at it, and there was a ginseng on the plate, which was a foot long, and the stem was thicker than a man's thumb.Inside the brocade box on the side is a box full of snow swallows, the color is clean and clear, and it is of good quality at first glance.

"Old lady, it's too expensive. How dare my mother accept it!" Rao, a princess who grew up in Fugui Township, also felt that these two things were a little too lofty.

The old concubine smiled and said: "Don't thank me, it's not for me to come, thank Qiqiao if you want to thank me, these were all rewarded by the queen mother after she followed me into the palace last time, I see Alright, I just buckle it up myself." The old concubine laughed and said, "It's as if I really haven't seen the world."

Everyone laughed, and the second wife raised her eyes to look at Liu Qiqiao again, and praised: "Qiqiao is really a lovely child. Now that her third aunt has an accident, she ran back without saying a word. Going to a funeral is really kind and righteous."

Liu Qiqiao thought in her heart: I really can't be affectionate and righteous to my third aunt, but relatives share a relationship, my father is not at home, so I can't expect my mother to worry about this matter.

Everyone talked for a while, and the princess also felt a little tired, so she got up and said: "I don't have the cheek to wait for lunch at the old lady's place, I will go back first."

The old concubine also stood up, and ordered the servant girl beside her: "Go and ask the woman outside to lift the shoulders and take the wife back. The sun is hot now, so don't burn it."

Liu Qiqiao followed the concubine out of the hall, but the second wife hadn't pulled her gaze away from Liu Qiqiao.At this moment, she saw that the old concubine was no one here, so she thought about saying this first.It stands to reason that Liu Qiqiao belongs to the princess, so she should go to the princess first.But the concubine might not agree, so the second wife thought, why not rely on the old lady's love for Brother Yan and speak up first, and then with the support of the old lady, she would not be afraid that the concubine would refuse to give it to others.

The old concubine lay on the couch again, seeing that the second wife hadn't left with her, she asked, "Is there anything else you want to say to me?"
