Chapter 78 Rat
Yue Shu looked at and touched the material. It was comfortable and of high quality. The color was relatively subdued and not bright. It was very suitable for Sheng Yanqing's current job.

Yue Shu thought to herself, this imperial concubine is such a thoughtful person!

Reward your servants with things that are suitable for them according to local conditions, and don't simply give them good or bright things all at once.

No wonder the Emperor of Guyue Dynasty has such deep affection for this imperial concubine.

This is a person who truly rewards and punishes clearly.

Zhang had been in the Crystal Palace for many years and had her own vision for materials. She took a few glances and knew that this was good material. Seeing Yue Shu wanting to go back to her room to make the robes immediately, she comforted her:

"Don't worry, if you can't finish it in the next few days, just let me do the rest."

Yue Shu understood that Zhang was worried about her, so she shook her head and said:

"Auntie is also very busy at the Crystal Palace. How can I make you more tired?"

"Besides, this is what I owe to Brother Sheng, so I should pay it back."

At this time, Tingyu came over lazily and said in a sarcastic tone:

"Mom, why do you care about her? Just let her do her job well!"

"You refused to make me a wedding quilt at first, saying you didn't have time, but now you have time!"

"Look, you're eager to make clothes for others, but you're not looking down on us!"

Zhang listened and remained silent for a while.

Yue Shu didn't even look at Ting Yu, and explained to Zhang with a smile:
"It seems that Sister Tingyu is really a young lady. She really doesn't understand this kind of spiritual embroidery at all."

She continued to joke hypocritically:
"Sister Tingyu's wedding quilt is the only one a woman will have in her life. Do you want to just make one casually and then get married on such an important day?"

"For such an important day, such a precious wedding quilt must be embroidered with great care. How can a small person like me finish it in two or three days?"

"Unless Sister Tingyu doesn't care, just leave it alone."

Zhang also nodded, agreeing with Yue Shu's words.

When Tingyu mentioned this matter to her before, she actually had some doubts in her heart.

Yue Shu could see that Zhang was unhappy about her refusal to make a wedding quilt for Ting Yu.

"And how can the robes that men usually wear be compared to the wedding blankets that are considered auspicious and auspicious at weddings?"

"Besides, I made Brother Sheng's robes in the past few days, so he can just wear them. They are clothes for working outside anyway, and summer robes don't need to be that complicated. Just enough to wear is enough."

As soon as Yue Shu finished speaking, Ting He pulled Yue Shu back to her own courtyard, rolled her eyes at her sister, and said unhappily:

"Yueyue has wasted my time explaining so much to you. I won't talk to you anymore. You are not helping me and are just causing trouble."

Zhang didn't feel like saying anything, but Tingyu just curled her lips and looked indifferent.

One can tell at a glance that she is afraid of her father, so she comes out now, just like a mouse seeing a cat. When the cat leaves, the mouse naturally starts to go out to "forage for food" in a swagger.

Zhang also smiled awkwardly and said:
"Don't work yourself up, you two. I'll bring you some fairy cakes later."

In fact, Zhang was also very annoyed that her daughter had been so domineering recently, because her daughter had quarreled with her husband many times.

But she thought about Tingyu's poor health, so she sighed, forced herself to cheer up, and coaxed Tingyu:

"Would you like anything else?" "Did you enjoy the barbecue yesterday?"

"Did you feel any discomfort in your stomach when you woke up today?"

Before Tinghe left, she heard her mother talking to her sister like this. Yueshu hurriedly pulled Tinghe out.

While walking, I coaxed her.

"Brother Sheng also brought some honey today. I'll make you some candied honey later, okay?"

Tinghe was sitting in the small courtyard, not in a very good mood.

Yue Shu continued to speak to her in a gentle voice:

"Now that I have the spiritual honey, I will make you some spiritual honey osmanthus cake, okay? It tastes fragrant and soft."

She didn't stop embroidering while she was talking, and didn't care whether Tinghe was listening or not. She just kept talking and teasing her.

Ting He also understood what Yue Shu meant. After feeling better, he walked to Yue Shu and said a little aggrievedly:

"I'm really afraid that she will be no different whether she gets married or not."

Yue Shu's eyes were still on the fabric, but she asked her:
"What do you think."

"You see, as long as my sister is around mother, my mother seems to automatically block everyone else and only has eyes for me, her sister."

"Even if my sister gets married in the future, she still won't be able to come home."

"What can we do if she refuses to leave?"

"What's more, if she marries into a Confucian scholar's family in the future, her life will be miserable. What should she do if she asks my mother for this and that?"

"Mom loves her so much, I'm afraid my sister will suck the blood of the family and support her to live a good life."

Tinghe was actually thinking that when Tingyu got married, she would take all the treasures left with Yueshu back home.

The idea is good, but because of her mother's favoritism, I'm afraid she will suck her blood for the rest of her life!
She is not willing to give in!
What kind of life did she live as a child?
She entered the palace to serve since she was young, had to read people's faces and make a living under the orders of the nobles.

The Crystal Palace is noble, the nobles are magnanimous, and there is even someone as kind as an old lady.

However, this is not a question of whether the nobles are good at talking, but a question of the right to choose.

The nobles can choose to be good or bad to them, but no matter good or bad, they can only choose to accept it all and then offer their smiling faces.

I worked so hard to build up my fortune, but she took it all away just by saying a few nice words to my mother. It must be hard for anyone to bear this—

Tingyu didn't even need to say any nice words. She just needed to cover her heart tenderly and her mother would automatically give her everything.

But, everyone’s spirit stones aren’t blown by the wind!
"You can tell me this, but don't tell your mother."

Yue Shu was calculating the size and style of the material while looking at the fairy cake that Zhang had just asked the maid to bring over. She asked the maid to get some honey for her, as she wanted to make some honey lemon tea for Ting He to cool down.

After sending the little maid away, Yue Shu continued:
"Don't worry too much. Being too anxious will only generate negative energy. You will be unhappy, and things will happen. It's useless to make up for it."

"I'm telling you, after I buy the house, you can just put all your treasures in the room I prepared for you and lock them up. I'll keep an eye on them for you and you don't have to worry."
