Yipin Tianxia

A leader of the Qiang Rong came?

Gao Xian was puzzled, "Where is this country?" Why haven't you heard of it?

The chief guest of the Ministry of Rites stood up and replied, "I checked the ancient books and found that there is indeed a country named Qiang Rong in the northwest border of Daliang. I heard that their country is rich in gems and is extremely rich. About 300 years ago, their country sent envoys to This is the second time I have passed the Central Plains Court Congratulations, and this is a gift from the Lord Qiangrong to His Majesty."

As the eunuch presented a belt inlaid with huge gemstones, all the officials in the hall collectively gasped, and even Gao Xian's eyes flickered.

It's okay for him to scrape together such a belt in his palace, but there is only one at most.But this small country is actually just such a belt, so how rich is it?But when he took the belt up close and took a closer look, Gao Xian felt something was wrong.

"It's nothing more than a gemstone, but the craftsmanship of this inlaid belt looks like the craftsmanship of a craftsman in the capital?"

Don't be an imposter, will you?From such a great distance, who knows if it is true or not?

The host and guest Lang Zhong answered truthfully, "According to the Lord of the Qiang Rong, because of the long journey, he was afraid that he would be robbed and killed if he brought a serious guard of honor, so he went on a visit in order to obey. I have checked their horses, and they are indeed BMWs from the Western Regions, especially the The lord of the country is riding a sweaty and bloody horse that is unique in ten thousand. This kind of horse has always been ridden by the monarch, so there should be no reason to be fake. The lord of Qiangrong also said that if the emperor likes it, he can dedicate this horse to his majesty. But please also give him some horses to drive home."

Many ministers in the court couldn't help laughing, although they didn't meet each other.But they all thought that the lord of the country was really interesting.Even if such a precious gem is offered as a gift, are you afraid that you can't afford a horse?

Gao Xian is a man of war, so he naturally loves horses, he hurriedly said, "Go back and entertain the lord, and prepare to meet him. If he really wants to donate horses, I will let him choose from my stable."

The Minister of Rites and the doctor of the host and guest agreed, and hurried to make preparations.

At this time, the leisure garden is full of colorful flowers and red flowers.The sound of warblers and swallows.

The old lady sat in soft pockets with Aunt Shi back and forth with great interest, playing in the garden with Nianfu Huiniang and her daughter.

It was one thing to hear it before, but another to actually see it.

Aunt Shi looked at the maids and servants who were all dressed up as servants and servants, and she repeatedly praised, "This is a good idea, and it looks refreshing. It's just you, a little ghost, who came up with this trick."

Nian Fu hurriedly said, "I didn't come up with this, it was the idea of ​​the son-in-law. What's the use of dressing up in front of a room full of ladies and gentlemen? It's better to dress up like a man, it's more chic."

It has to be said that men know women best.The idea of ​​Consort Yin is very popular.Moreover, it is also easy to separate the maids in the garden from the outsiders, in case something happens.Also good cooking.

Compared with Mrs. Shi, who paid attention to the maid's clothes, the old lady preferred to see the tortoise lazily basking in the sun on the pond, and the little squirrel jumping on the treetop. She said that she would get some for her when she went back.

Princess Zhenshun came out to welcome her and said with a smile, "Why bother? If the old lady is free, she can come to visit when she has free time. Isn't it more interesting than watching at home?"

See the princess is coming.The whole family is busy to meet the ceremony, but Zhen shuns the way. "This frustrates me. All of you are my aunt's elders. What kind of spectacle am I showing? The two elders will stop coming down soon. Just sit like this. You have to be polite, and I will leave."

In the end, the old lady ordered someone to put down the soft sedan chair, and she and Aunt Shi sat in the sedan chair and bowed to Zhenshun to salute.

Zhenshun returned the gifts one by one, pulled Nian Fu aside, and said excitedly, "Do you know? The few people I brought in today have all applied for a card, and they are all gold cards. Location. It is estimated that our cards are not enough to sell, and there is also a daily number of guests, do you want to add more?"

Nianfu looked like a profiteer, and waved his hand to refuse, "Resolutely don't add cards, especially cards. Tell them, there are only so many cards this year, and they will be gone when they are sold out. Whether they will add cards in the future, and when they will be added, is another matter."

This is what my sister is playing. If there are all over the street, who is willing to spend this money?

good!Zhenshun was very happy, and asked her to greet the old lady and walk slowly, and went to receive the next batch of female guests.They have long had a clear division of labor, one receives relatives and friends, and the other receives customers without any delay.

However, although the scenery in this leisure garden is beautiful, it is not the first highlight.

It is the food that Nianfu is best at.

Because it is a female customer, Nianfu has specially configured various packages for different groups.Some have whitening skin, some have rosy complexion, and some have anti-sallowness and blackness, and lose weight.There are also sweet, salty, light, honest, and vulgar advertisements in terms of taste. There is always one that suits you.

Anyway, the old lady and Hui Niang's family ate very happily and had a good time. After noon, they went back home and strongly requested to pack a lot of their favorite food.

When Nianfu sent her back, he was also praised by Mr. Su Da who ordered takeaway.

"However, the serving size is a bit small. You sell it so expensive, aren't you afraid that people will scold you?"

Nianfu laughed aloud, "It's all for female customers, why do you want so much? It's only small and exquisite that are popular. Don't worry, I will send some small snacks, fruits and other things from time to time. It can't be black."

Little cunning!Su Cheng laughed and cursed, but didn't say any more, and let her go to rest.

Knowing that it was Zhenshun's turn to receive the group of relatives and friends in the afternoon, Nianfu had to rush back to Xianyuan to greet the guests.The old lady was distressed, afraid that she would be exhausted, so she had to drag Nianfu to take a nap in her room before leaving.

Nianfu also really felt a little tired, so she lay down like a stream, had someone light incense, and called her after sleeping for half an hour.

Taking advantage of this gap, Wu'er quietly came to talk to Liu'er.

Seeing that Nianfu was drowsy and about to fall asleep, Cui Rong pouted her mouth and signaled that she would be here to watch over here, and let Liu'er go out to talk.

"But what's the matter?"

Seeing Liu'er's decent attire, her brows and eyes became clearer and more capable, and Wu'er, who was still serving the needlework in the broken garden, couldn't help but feel more and more ashamed.

"Good sister, can you help me talk to the princess, and let me help in the garden over there?"

Biting her lips, she said unwillingly, "Even Laixi used to be a maid in charge, so I have studied a few years longer than her, right?"

Liu Er glanced at her, and said bluntly, "You have read a little more than her, but she has been doing business with the princess for a few years longer than you. The garden over there is not the first female champion in the scientific examination." , what's the use of knowing how to read?"

Wu'er's face flushed, and there was a glint of grievance in her eyes.

Liu'er couldn't bear it when she saw it, "You girl, you are good or bad, and you don't have any evil intentions, but you just don't know how to put your mind on the right idea."

Wu'er raised her sleeves to wipe away her tears in aggrieved way, and said with a choked voice, "Why am I useless to the point? I didn't seduce the men, and I was lazy. It was just that I didn't protect the princess's things that time, so I was rejected. Then you are Good luck, I got a chance to go back, but I..."

Hearing what she said, Liu'er put away her sympathy and sneered again, "If you say so, I am all by luck to get here? If you really think so, then you will just be a sewing girl in this life Bar."

Seeing her turning around to leave, Wu'er held her back, "Good sister, can you count me as wrong? Just help me."

Liu'er sighed softly, "You said this because you still haven't understood what I mean. Forget it, after all, I'll explain it to you. Don't you understand our princess' temper? She is kind-hearted, but not muddle-headed. Let anyone do what they want, and I don't have the ability to say such things for you. Do you think I can get to where I am today, just because of my master's praise? If it wasn't for my own hard work , has already been squeezed down."

Wu'er suppressed her tears, and asked ignorantly, "Then how do you put your heart into it?"

Liu'er said, "Heart is to take what the master told you to do in your heart, and do it as if it were your own."

"But I'm not by Master's side..."

Liu'er taught her patiently, "Aren't you doing needlework now to share the master's worries? Why can't you use your brain to do this job well?"

Wu'er looked at her blankly, "No matter how well I did it, it's in the hands of the master?"

Liu'er got angry, "Forget it, you're like this, you won't understand if I tell you. Remember, do your sewing well in the future, and help others when you have time. Our master is kind People, as long as you work hard, you will not be treated badly. But if you want to be valued by others, you must show the ability to be valued by others. Otherwise, why should they praise you? Think about it slowly, I will go there first gone."

Wu'er looked at her back, still stuck in her own thoughts.

If chanting blessings does not give her a chance, how can she show her ability to be valued by others?She can read and know how to read and write. If she goes to serve in Xianyuan, why isn't it better than Laixi who can't read big characters?

Madam He stood not far away and looked at her puzzled expression, shook her head, and went to the small kitchen to cook the soup that the old lady drank in the afternoon.

When the old lady took a nap, Nianfu left early.

When Nanny He told her this little episode, the old lady kept shaking her head, "Some people, I really can't blame the master for not praising them. How can you praise someone who is not enlightened like this? If she is devoted to loyalty Forget it, but it’s not. This time, I will pay attention to matching her with a boy, so that she won’t have to think about it all day long, and when the time comes to raise a second Lan Gu, it will be shocking.”

Mrs. Tan came a few days ago and handed over all the life deeds of the servants under the command of the broken garden to the old lady.Some of them are old enough to get married.

The old lady and Nanny He slowly discussed the character and temper of these servants, and asked them one by one for questioning. Even though they are slaves, they should be responsible for such important matters.

It's just that Mo Yun, despite his age, is determined not to get married, "The young master is not even married, how can I have the face to get married?"

The old lady sighed, although he was dull, he was a truly loyal person, and he was much more worry-free than some people. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
