The wealth of rebirth is deep in the mountains

Chapter 248 Splendid Pavilion

Xiaomi smiled and served Mrs. Tie fish ball soup, flattering her, "Mother, try this soup, I specially made it for you."

Mrs. Tie was delighted that her daughter was filial, so she put a fish ball into her mouth, but said in surprise, "Oh, this is fish? Why isn't it fishy at all?"

"I used a little trick, and I don't know if I tell you, but I taught it to Chef Wang, so if I want to eat it in the future, let him cook it."

Xiaomi filled another bowl for Tie Wushuang, and then asked cautiously, "Mother, look, I've finished my tonic. The weather is so good, I..."

"Do you want to go out for a walk?"

Tie Wushuang smiled, and Xiaomi nodded quickly, "Brother is the best, how can you know what I'm going to do just by guessing?"

Tie Wushuang pouted at Mrs. Tie, the meaning was obvious, without his wife's consent, he couldn't do anything even if he guessed it.

Xiaomi wanted to hug Mrs. Tie's arm, and when she continued to act like a baby, Butler Ping came to report in a hurry.

"Old lady, Lord Hou, the imperial concubine sent someone to deliver the post."

"Oh, imperial concubine?"

Mrs. Tie frowned, she was the daughter of the general, and logically she was a few years older than the imperial concubine, but the imperial concubine was sent to Xiaoyao Island to serve the god of fire since she was a child, and it was rough and difficult for her to marry into the Hou's mansion.Although both of them are in the circle of noble girls in Kyoto, they don't have much intersection.If it wasn't for going to Beijing every few years to report on their duties, the noble concubine would enjoy the banquet instead of the emperor, and they would not know each other.

Now, as soon as she returned to Beijing, the noble concubine sent someone to post a message. What was the reason?
Even though he was full of doubts, he still couldn't lack the proper etiquette.

Nanny Dao took the maids and hurriedly evacuated the dining table, Mrs. Tie was also wearing a large dress, and Steward Ping invited an eunuch in, followed by two young eunuchs. of.

The housekeeper Xu Shiping had already taken care of it, and the eunuch politely saluted Mrs. Tie's mother and son, and finally delivered a post with red background and gold border.

"Old madam, the imperial concubine has seen a few peach blossoms blooming in the conservatory of the palace these few days. She was so happy that she wanted to hold a flower viewing feast. Hearing that the old madam came to Beijing, she brought a filial and sensible righteous daughter with her. The servant is here to deliver the post. Please go to the palace with the lady to enjoy the flowers and drink tomorrow, I wonder if the lady is free?"

Although noble concubines have no right to issue Yizhi, but there is no queen in Dayuan, the postings of noble concubines are no different from Yizhi.

If anyone accepted the post and dared to disobey it, it would be a slap in the face of the noble concubine.As long as the brain is not flooded, of course they will not do this.

Therefore, Mrs. Tie agreed with a smile, "Thank you, father-in-law, when you get back, please convey to the old lady, thank you for your kindness, the old lady will definitely come to the banquet on time."

"Okay, Madam, don't worry, the slave will definitely convey it."

The eunuch responded, and rolled his eyes around the room, but when he didn't see anyone else, there was a flash of disappointment, and he left.

Tie Wushuang saw off the guests to the second gate, and when he turned back, Madam Tie ordered Nanny Dao, "Send someone to Jinxiu Pavilion and Jinyu Tower to hurry up and bring the dresses and jewelry that were previously ordered."

Tie Wushuang laughed and said, "Mother, are you going to dress up for the flower viewing feast?"

Mrs. Tie waved her hand, "I'm over a hundred years old. It doesn't matter what I wear to enter the palace. It's your sister. It's the first time I enter the palace. I know very well what the little girls in other mansions look like. If you wear Too bad, I'm afraid your sister will be wronged."

"My mother is too thoughtful, I am not easy to bully when I look at Xiaomi."

"Of course, how could our daughter of the Tie family be bullied! But she must not be underestimated."

The two of them talked lively, and Xiaomi who heard the news rushed over from the Nuan Pavilion.

Almost as soon as she entered the door, she yelled, "Mother, I heard you want to take me into the palace?"

Mrs. Tie beckoned her to come forward, and said angrily, "Aren't you yelling bored these days, and just took you around the palace. But those people are not easy to get along with, I'm afraid you don't like them."

"Oh, mother, I didn't enter the palace to see those people. I don't care about them. Besides, I'm mother's daughter. At worst, I hide behind mother. I'll see who dares to bully me!"

Xiaomi was overjoyed, afraid that the old lady would not take her into the palace.

She had a headache at first about how she caught Gao Ren and sent her heart to Feng Jian, but she didn't expect to have such a good opportunity to go directly to Feng Jian's "home".

It's really hard to find a place to break through the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it.

Seeing Xiaomi's appearance, Tie Wushuang's guess became even heavier.

"Mother, it happens that the child is going to go out later, so I will pick up jewelry and clothes for my sister on the way and come back."

"Is that so?" Mrs. Tie did not refuse her son's courtship, after all, she wanted to keep Xiaomi at home for the rest of her life, and she was very willing for her son to be close to Xiaomi.So he said, "Okay, then I'll leave it to you. You have to go early and come back early, don't delay entering the palace tomorrow."

"Don't worry, mother."

Tie Wushuang agreed, chatted with Xiaomi a few words, got up and went out.

In the afternoon in Kyoto, due to the early arrival of spring, there are many more pedestrians on the road, full of traffic and prosperity.

Tie Wushuang didn't really have any important business, but he was just looking for an excuse. Now he gets close to his mother, most of it is due to Xiaomi, she is really understanding and loving, so he just came out to run an errand for her.

In the West City, I don't know if it is because of the post of the imperial concubine's flower viewing banquet, it is booming again.Especially those cloth shops, jewelry shops, and rouge shops, almost all of which had carriages and sedan chairs parked outside their doors.The shop was also crowded with people, the busy boys and shopkeepers seemed to be about to fly.

Jinxiu Pavilion and Jinyulou, as the two best shops in Kyoto, are leaders in the industry. Naturally, the shops are located at the intersection of streets and roads, the most prosperous places.

Because it was pre-booked, Tie Wushuang entered the Jinyu Tower within a quarter of an hour, and the attendants behind him brought out four heavy boxes.

Although passers-by couldn't see what kind of jewelry was in the box, they clicked their tongues secretly just looking at the intricate patterns carved on the rosewood box.This box alone is enough to sell for ten taels of silver, not to mention the jewelry inside...

Tie Wushuang ignored the passers-by's speculation at all, and strolled to the opposite Jinxiu Pavilion.

The owner of Jinxiu Pavilion is a powerful one. He directly bought a small two-story building, and then brought a small courtyard.Cloth and ready-made clothes are sold on the first floor, and the second floor is a place where distinguished customers can customize dresses, which is very popular with the wives and young ladies of various prefectures on weekdays.

No, tomorrow was going to the palace for a banquet, and everyone rushed to search for good materials, as if they didn't worry about buying materials at all, how could they make a dress overnight.

Maybe there are many embroiderers in the family, so there is no need to consider this at all.

There were especially many sedan chairs and carriages parked outside the gate of Jinxiu Pavilion, Tie Wushuang could hear the noise inside before entering the gate.

Two girls, one was wearing a scarlet long skirt, the other was wearing a bi-color skirt. The two of them were grabbing a willow long skirt from left to right, so that their faces were red and their necks were thick.

"Guo Biru, let me go, this is what I fell in love with first!"

"Don't let it go, obviously I got it first! You are the princess and you can't bully people like this!"

The seven or eight guests next to them seemed to be picking fabrics in their hands, but they were actually watching the excitement with great interest.After all, it is not every day that two noble girls quarrel.

As the host, the shopkeeper's lady was naturally not easy to watch, and hurriedly persuaded her, "You two nobles, sit down and talk slowly if you have something to say, it's not good to hurt your peace!"

"Go away, lowly servant girl! If you dare to sell this skirt to Guo today, the princess will have your shop smashed!"

The girl in the long crimson dress, also known as the princess of Jiulian County, was obviously not a friendly person, so she scolded the shopkeeper's wife back when she opened her mouth.Another girl surnamed Guo was not to be outdone, "Miss Boss, if you don't dare to sell me the skirt, I will also smash your shop. My father is the servant of the household department. Let alone smashing the shop, I will let you close it tomorrow!"

Tie Wushuang heard it interesting at the door, and couldn't help but sneer.It is true that the officials in Beijing are incompetent.Being able to raise such good daughters shows that their father is not a virtuous and talented person.

He glanced at the somewhat out-of-shape long skirt that was scrambled for. The light willow color is very refreshing, and the skirt and cuffs are embroidered with light yellow winter jasmine flowers. It is really suitable for the season and occasion.No wonder both of them were fancy and refused to give in to each other.

He intends to watch for a while longer, but a man leaning against the gate of Xiuzhuang naturally attracts the attention of others.

At this moment, the slanting sunlight came in from outside the door, making Tie Wushuang's red clothes extremely dazzling. He was originally handsome, but now he was leaning against the dark door frame, his Danfeng eyes raised, the corners of his mouth turned up, Almost all the female guests who looked at the evil spirit had their hearts beating faster.

The two girls who were fighting for each other subconsciously let go, and the willow color fell to the ground.In early spring, there is still snow on the streets and alleys that has not melted away, and the soles of the guests' shoes will inevitably be covered with slush.

The willow skirt and the light yellow flowers are a little dirty at first sight.

A look of pity flashed across Tie Wushuang's eyes, he walked slowly into the shop, and asked the lady in charge, "Bring the custom-made clothes from Zhennan Hou Mansion!"

"Ah?" The shopkeeper's lady was stunned, and hurried forward to answer, "Yes, yes, please sit down, young master, and drink tea. The slaves will be ready soon."

As he spoke, a young man quickly took the box, but when his eyes caught the skirt that fell on the ground, his expression suddenly changed, hesitating and not daring to go forward.

The shopkeeper's lady didn't know why, so she urged, "Zhu Yi, what are you doing, why don't you hurry up and send the box here?"

The little guy couldn't help it, so he could only go forward and whisper a few words in her ear.The shopkeeper's wife also changed her face, swallowed hard, and thought to herself why she didn't read the almanac when she went out today, it's so unlucky.

It turned out that the willow-colored shirt that fell on the ground was custom-made by the Zhennan Hou Mansion. When it was delivered by the embroiderer in the backyard just now, the two girls saw it and fought over it without saying a word. Can not be offended.I don't want to, I actually forgot that the clothes belonged to the owner, and they are sitting in front of me now...
