Yutai Bi

Chapter 124 Name
"Want hairpins?" Du Yansui suddenly thought that the mansion had quit the gardener long ago, and the back garden had long since been abandoned.Cen Sanniang didn't even have any hairpins, and felt guilty again.

Cen Sanniang laughed and said, "I don't like having such a big peony on my head..."

She suddenly remembered that women at this time love hairpins, and they like different flowers in different seasons.I especially love big peonies.She secretly scolded herself for being stupid, stared at the pot of Jade Tower Diancui carefully, and said to Du Yansui proudly: "I can make silk flowers exactly like this one. Are there any silk flowers made in the palace? Find a way to go to Shang Palace Would you like me to buy some of the most delicate branches?"

"Okay." Du Yansui smiled, he didn't believe that Cen Sanniang could do better than Shang Gongju.

After dinner at the old lady's place in the evening, Du Yansui took Cen Sanniang to see Mrs. Zhang.

In the late spring of April, Mrs. Zhang was still covered with a thick winter quilt.There was no trace of blood on his face.Seeing Du Yansui and Cen Sanniang coming, there was a smile in his eyes, his voice was very soft, and he gasped slightly after a few words.

After sitting for a while, Zhang's eyes were half closed due to lack of energy.

Du Yanwan sent the two of them out.

She glanced at Cen Sanniang hesitantly, and said in a low voice: "Brother, Wei Xiaoqing posted another post. She invited me to go hunting in Leyouyuan the day after tomorrow. I haven't agreed yet."

Du Yansui nodded: "Go. I still have two days off, and I will stay at the mansion to watch over my mother the day after tomorrow."

He thought for a while and said, "Find Zhi Enduo and take a few guards."

Du Yanwan bit her lip and looked at Du Yansui without saying a word.

Cen Sanniang quickly understood.It used to be Du Yansui who was in charge of the accounts in the mansion, but now it's him.Du Yanwan is aware of the situation at home, she is worried about the clothes and expenses for going out to socialize.

She stepped forward and took Du Yanwan's hand and said with a smile: "The weather is just right for going to Leyouyuan for a spring outing. Wouldn't it be a waste of spring to stay in the mansion. Tomorrow, my husband will accompany me to the East City for a stroll. Thank you for taking care of my mother. The day after tomorrow we will Just stay in the mansion, you can go and play at ease. If you are lucky, maybe we can add game to our dinner table in the evening."

Cen Sanniang didn't say a word about the cost of money, seeing Du Yansui nod slightly, Du Yanwan had a clue in her heart, and her eyes were a little more grateful, "Don't worry, sister-in-law, I will wait for you to hunt game for you and add more vegetables."

Back in the yard, Cen Sanniang called Xia Chu to open the cage.

When Du Yansui saw that she had placed jewelry all over the table, she knew what she wanted to do, and felt uncomfortable, so she couldn't help but said, "What are you doing? Yan Wan is not short on jewelry."

After he finished speaking, he found that his tone was a bit stiff, and he stood there with a straight face and did not speak.

In order to let the clansmen know that the Duke's Mansion has not yet collapsed, he pawned a box of jewelry from his grandmother and gave Cen Sanniang a top emerald crown.A set of twelve white jade sticks was added.He did it all by himself.After returning home for more than a year, he knew in his heart that the jewelry that his grandmother and mother were not willing to pawn off was the headgear that matched it when they wore high-end dresses.It is not suitable for a girl like Yan Wan to wear it when she is hunting in spring.

Knowing that Yan Wan can't borrow new jewelry and can only use her old face, Du Yansui just feels uncomfortable.

The more reasonable and generous Cen Sanniang was, the more uncomfortable he was.

He is the only man in the Duke's Mansion, so Du Yansui can choose him, just like what he said to Cen Sanniang: let him go up the mountain to chop firewood and sell it, he has nothing to say.

However, seeing his younger sister hesitate, and seeing Cen Sanniang generously choosing her own jewelry for her when she returned home, he felt a fire in his heart.Contradictory, distressed, awkward.

"Oh, this frown is so frowning that it can kill a mosquito!" Cen Sanniang was an outsider, but she was sensitive to the self-esteem that Du Yansui was trying to maintain.Simply joking, reached out to rub his eyebrows.

"Don't make trouble!" Du Yansui was stared and chased by her, dodging left and right, and growled extremely angrily.

Cen Sanniang was taken aback, stared at him and yelled: "I see, you heard Yan Wan mention Wei Xiaoqing, and you remembered her sister Wei Xiaowan, right? I remember clearly that day in Leyouyuan, you baked The venison is for her to eat, and when she saw me coming, she ran away! Du Yansui, if you want to go with Yan Wan, you should go as promised by the sisters of the Wei family! I will stay in the mansion with my mother and grandmother. Already!"

He sat down and turned around to ignore him.

Du Yansui was dumbfounded when he heard that: "I...how can I have it!"

Cen Sanniang thought behind his back, of course I know you don't, so what if I just say that.

"Sanniang, listen to me, when I met you in Leyouyuan, my mind was filled with grass, and I didn't know how to talk to you... How could I roast venison for her? Just run? Don't talk nonsense, okay?" Du Yansui was anxious, and reached out to pull her.

Cen Sanniang struggled hard, but refused to turn around: "As a sister-in-law, what's wrong with borrowing some Shixin jewelry to save Yan Wan's face? Are you going to yell at me with a straight face? My life is miserable." !"

After speaking, he took off his handkerchief and lay down on the table, covering his face and howling.

Du Yansui was so startled that his hands and feet trembled, and he gritted his teeth in sadness.He hugged her hard and pressed her tightly in his arms: "I'm not good, it's me..."

As he said that, his eyes became sore, and he secretly scolded himself for being inexplicable.

"hey-hey."

When Cen Sanniang heard his confession, she raised her face, smiled and put her arms around his neck: "You're kidding!"

Seeing her like this, Du Yansui blushed from holding her breath.

Cen Sanniang kissed him on the face, "Don't be angry if you kiss me."

Du Yansui let out a long breath, angry and helpless, and had nothing to do with her, so she simply turned her face away: "This way!"

Cen Sanniang took another mouthful without hesitation.

"If it weren't for your young age, I would..." Du Yansui threatened, then felt embarrassed again, chin a little, "Choose jewelry!"

Cen Sanniang accepted it as soon as she saw it, and simply sat on him and fiddled with the jewelry on the table.Finally, I chose a set of eight gold inlaid pearls and put them in a box.

"Before I got married, I melted my mother's set of golden hair and made it. My uncle gave me a box of pearls. The patterns I painted myself can't be duplicated in Chang'an City. Yan Wan wants to ride a horse, and the hair should be simple and not cumbersome. .” Cen Sanniang was very satisfied.

She remembered that the mansion hadn't bought any spring clothes.Yan Wan wore new clothes when she got married, and she probably did just that. It would be inappropriate to wear them out for a spring outing and be watched by others.

"Add servants and buy cloth to make new clothes for the people in the mansion. I gave Director Du 500 taels of silver in total. After deducting the expenses in the mansion this month and leaving some extra money, we can use 1000 taels of silver. Come with me tomorrow Go shopping and buy two new clothes for Yan Wan. When there is an embroidered lady in the mansion, there is no need to buy ready-made clothes."

Du Yansui quit: "What about me? What about the purse you promised to make for me?"

Cen Sanniang lowered her head guiltily: "I plan to buy them together tomorrow."

"I want you to do it yourself!"

"I don't know how to embroider. I don't need to embroider a purse, I can do it too! Do you want it?"

Du Yansui pursed her lips tightly, and said after a long while: "It sounds nice, so I'll use it."

Cen Sanniang smiled sweetly: "Brother Nine!"

"Not satisfied. Get another one."

"Master? Husband? Master?"

Oh my god, Cen Sanniang touched her arm, and goosebumps stood up.

"Change again!"

Is this still changing?Cen Sanniang gave up: "Tell me, what do you want me to call you?"

Du Yan Sui Wan'er smiled, with spring in her eyes: "I am the ninth in the family, can you call me Sheng Jiulang?"

Cen Sanniang rolled her eyes.

Du Yansui lowered her head and whispered in her ear, "It's fine if you call me a good brother."

Cen Sanniang jumped off him tremblingly: "I'm sleepy, I'm going to wash up first!"

Du Yansui laughed loudly, and lay down on the bed in a happy mood, resting her arms behind her head leisurely: "Jiulang sounds good, and good brother sounds good too..."

The next day, Du Yansui took Cen Sanniang to Dongshi.

He was riding a horse, and Cen Sanniang took Ah Qiu and Xia Chu to the carriage.

Passing by the clothes made by Fang Ming's Yunshang, Cen Sanniang raised the curtain and took a look.Ask Ah Qiu to come and see: "Do you remember this shop?"

Ah Qiu nodded seriously: "Your servant will remember."

The business between her and Fang Ming was proceeding in an orderly manner.Ah Fu was on duty at the concierge, and Ah Fu's father drove the carriage.If Fang Ming has any news, he can pass it in through Ah Fu and his son.

Cen Sanniang deliberately arranged a complete information channel in the Duke's mansion.

When going out today, she asked A Fu's father to drive the car and take this road.In case Ah Fu and his son cannot be separated, Ah Qiu can also find here.

Things in the Duke's Mansion are gradually getting straightened out, and she thinks it's time to take care of her private house.

The Fang family opened a store in Chang'an, and they would give him [-]% of the dry stock. This matter had to be passed on to Du Yansui.Otherwise, it will be bad if there is a misunderstanding.

"San Niang, this street is full of silk, satin and ready-made clothes, get out of the car." Du Yansui said standing beside the car after getting off the horse.

Cen Sanniang lifted the curtain and came out, before Ah Fu's father put the stool away, Du Yansui reached out to pick her up and got off the car.

Looking around, the whole street was full of people coming and going, the cars and horses were noisy, and it was extremely lively.Cen Sanniang became excited: "Finally I can go shopping freely!"

Du Yansui couldn't help laughing: "Are you so happy?"

"Of course!" Cen Sanniang kept looking at the shops on both sides, and told him, "In Longzhou, I never went shopping. When I arrived at my grandfather's house, I went out for a banquet. Last time I met my little uncle. I came here once, but I didn’t take a serious stroll.”

She looked up at him: "Don't shout tired, understand?"
