Rebirth of the concubine's scheming

Chapter 70

Yin Huan rubbed his eyes, pulled out the needle wrapped around the purse, one side of the pattern was embroidered, and a simple Jin flower was embroidered on the dark blue side, Yin Huan picked up a bead in the box and gently embroidered it Press it in the middle of Jinhua, and embroider it tightly with the needle.

"Miss, take a break." Yin Huan has been sitting like this for several days in the afternoon, and there are pouch patterns embroidered by her, big and small, in the basket beside her. Every time at the end, she feels that it is not what she wants, Er Dong thinks they are all pretty, but the young lady is not satisfied no matter how she embroiders them.

Yin Huan raised her head, touched her neck and leaned on the cushion behind her. Er Dong came over and held her shoulders. Although the young lady said she could embroider one at random, she didn't know how many materials she had chosen after so many days. Nuan walked in, "Miss, Third Miss is here to see you."

Speaking of which, Gu Yinyue came in and saw the table full of pouch noodles and beads, "You are planning to make them and sell them, there are so many."

"Third sister, you came just in time, help me to see which one looks good." Yin Huan regained his energy, picked up the ones he liked and put them on top for Gu Yinyue to see, but Gu Yinyue really hadn't seen them before. She had troubled herself with this item, and pointed to some of them and said they were good, but Yin Huan felt that the one embroidered on hand was more satisfactory. Gu Yinyue smiled, "Who are you going to embroider for, with such care."

"No, I embroidered and played by myself." Yin Huan put everything into the basket, "Why is Third Sister coming here at this time?"

Gu Yinyue suddenly felt a little embarrassed, "I see that the business of your shops is so good, I want to ask how you manage them." Yin Huan was taken aback, and then understood that Gu Yinyue wanted to learn how to do it in advance The mistress of a big merchant family couldn't help teasing, "Third sister, why don't you ask mother."

"Don't make fun of me, ask my aunt that I can't open my mouth, if you don't say it, it's fine." Gu Yinyue looked at her shyly, stretched out her hand to pull her over, and pinched her cheek.

"Okay, okay, I'll tell you what to say." Yin Huan rubbed her slightly sore cheeks, "In the future, when my third sister gets married, the mistress will definitely manage many shops for her brother-in-law."

"Who asked about your marriage?" Gu Yinyue covered her mouth at once, stared at her with a flushed face, Yin Huan faltered, "I won't tell, I won't tell." Then she let go hands.

"Speak well." Gu Yinyue looked at her reproachfully, and Yin Huan nodded hurriedly, "Hey, third sister, you don't actually need to manage this shop yourself. Think about it, it's okay to have only one shop, if there are a dozen or so More, if there are dozens of companies, then you are not going to be exhausted, as long as you can manage the people who can help you deal with these things, and then you have to be clear about the accounts, then you can quickly find out if there is a problem .”

"Auntie taught you all of these?" Gu Yinyue's tone was a little envious. If her mother was proficient in these things, she should have been able to learn them very early, so she doesn't have to worry about doing them right now. not good.

"My mother taught me some things, and some of them are the experiences I have gained in the past few years." Yin Huan swallowed the word "brother-in-law" back, and looked at her with a smile, "Third sister, why are you asking these things?"

"Okay, you're still making fun of me, right?" Gu Yinyue raised her eyebrows, pushed her down on the soft couch, scratched her itchingly, tears came out with a smile, "Third Sister...Third Sister I'm wrong."

After finally getting up, Yin Huan wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, seeing her flushed face, she couldn't help asking, "Sister San, do you still care?"

Gu Yinyue was taken aback for a moment, then reached out to straighten her messy hair, smiled, "I don't care anymore."

"Do you think I'll be sad for a while." Gu Yinyue withdrew her hand and sighed, "I thought so too, after all, it's only been a year."

Yin Huan leaned against her lightly, "It's best not to care, anyway, third sister, you will definitely have a better life in the future than marrying him."

"Do you know?" Gu Yinyue pinched her nose. From the death of her uncle to the present, so many changes have happened in the past year. How can she waste time and be sad about this matter? The elder brother is working so hard to want the Gu family to be good. When she wakes up, how can she still be immersed in this kind of children's feelings.

"Of course." Yin Huan snorted, marrying Peng Maolin would not be much better, but there are still many women who want to marry him after marriage, and he is a man who likes to recite poems and do the right thing. She doesn't know anything about it at all. Being his wife is hard work, and I can't mention some daily necessities because it's too vulgar.

Gu Yinyue smiled and scolded, "Come on, don't call me Gu Yinhuan anymore, call me Gu Banxian." Yin Huan raised her head and felt that this title was not bad, "Sister, then how much is the few words of gold and jade I just said worth? ?”

The two looked at each other, and laughed together again. Qing Ya, who was standing outside the house, was very pleased. She might not have seen this scene of sisters getting along for a long time.

After another four or five days, Yin Huan finally finished embroidering the purse, which was the dark blue embroidery that was valued at the beginning. Su Qianmo didn't come to Gu's house, so Yin Huan asked his elder brother to hand over the things to him.

In the blink of an eye, it was the beginning of November, and Su Qianmo was about to leave for Yangguan. The eighth concubine wanted to keep him for the New Year, and a military order was blocked like a mountain.

After waiting at the gate of the city for a long time, I finally saw Gu Yixin's figure, looked behind him, and found that he was the only one here, Su Qianmo couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.

Gu Yixin threw the brocade box to him, "The person didn't arrive, so I brought the things."

Su Qianmo's face improved a bit, he looked at him coolly, raised the brocade box in his hand, "Thank you." He turned around and rode out of the city.

After walking for half a mile, Su Qianmo couldn't wait to open the box, and saw the purse lying quietly inside, with a smirk on his face...

This seemed to be an omen. After Su Qian walked silently for half a month, it started to snow in Lin'an City. When it snowed, Yin Huan became more and more reluctant to go out, and Black Pearl was already lazy to move in this season. , If you fiddle with me, you just ignore you.

However, the Gu mansion became more and more lively because of the heavy snowfall. The first thing to bear the brunt of the new year was Gu Yinshuang's wedding, followed by Gu Yinyi's wedding date that had been set long ago in early March, and the eldest son of the Gu family's big wedding in May. So years ago, Gu's mansion became busy, and there were more than a dozen lists full of things to buy.

In Mrs. Gu’s courtyard, Mrs. Gu was discussing with Mrs. Mu about these major events for the next year. Mrs. Gu signaled Mama Xi to take out the box, opened the box and Mrs. Gu took out a few bank notes and handed them over to Mrs. Mu. "You take these."

"Mother, this is absolutely impossible." Mrs. Mu pushed back, "I've done the calculations, it's enough."

"You take it, it's not a question of whether it's enough or not. The eldest girl and the second girl are married, and they must be in a good light. Our Gu family has not fallen into the way they think it is." Mrs. Gu stuffed the bank note, "It's not my own money. It was left by your father back then. Don't worry about it. Use everything you need."

Mrs. Mu couldn't push it, so she accepted it, and then Mrs. Gu continued to talk to her, "I was thinking, if the eldest girl is married, the second girl should also add the same." Gu Yinshuang wrote It's the third room, and Mrs. Gu doesn't have to have as much as Gu Yinyi's if she wants to add more, but Mrs. Gu just considered that the dowry prepared for her by the third room will not be too thick, so the child who married to the Lu family will only Had a harder time.

"Mother, if you add the same dowry, then the second sibling should have something to say. I don't think so. The fourth sibling will not make the dowry too ugly for the sake of face. Anyway, it was left by the third uncle when he passed away. Not a lot, we don't want to come back at all, it's all with them." Mrs. Mu has no sympathy for anyone who intends to hurt Yin Huanfan and suffers, even if they are both Miss Gu's family, to put it bluntly, there are good and bad. In the future, Yinyue's dowry will be more than all of them.

"Forget it, the child chose it himself." Mrs. Gu sighed, "Just follow what I said before and send me to Sanfang."

The two discussed the gifts from the guests who needed to be invited. Mrs. Gu went back to the inner room to take a nap, and Mrs. Mu took Siqi to Fang's Lanxinyuan to marry Mrs. Gu's wife. After leaving the Fang family, I also took out my own share, "The second girl got married earlier than the eldest girl. After all, she is the first girl in the Gu family to get married, so you can't ignore it on the bright side."

How could the Fang family not know this truth? Gu Yucheng was very happy. Don't worry about how this daughter finally got married with the second young master of the Lu family. So Fang didn't worry about the one piece of dowry, there would be no difference between left and right.

After coming out of Lanxin Courtyard, Mrs. Mu went around and returned to Bauhinia Courtyard. Yin Huan was still in the house and refused to come out. Mrs. Mu directly gave her a few shopping lists and told her to go find Third Sister After confirming all these with those stewards, the rest of the money can only be paid after checking whether it is good or bad.

Yin Huan had to dress thickly and went to Third Sister's, and the two of them went to the backyard. When the work was done, it was already dark, and Yin Huan went to his small warehouse again, and finally walked around inside. I have chosen the wedding objects for my two sisters.

In a blink of an eye, the snow stopped, and after the Laba New Year, the atmosphere became more intense. At this time, the Mu family had to enter the palace due to the imperial order. On the 23rd day of the year, a news came back from Yangguan, and a large cottage was successfully destroyed. , Captured the head of the cottage who had committed countless crimes around Yangguan for many years, and also confiscated a lot of gold, silver and jewelry, and sent them to Lin'an City together in the next year.

The emperor was very happy and wanted to give rewards to these soldiers who made great contributions this time. There were three people who bore the brunt of the service in this bandit suppression operation, and the emperor gave promotion rewards to all of them, and one of them, Su Qianmo, was directly promoted by two ranks.

With the arrival of this news, Yin Huan actually received an annual gift sent by someone on the [-]th day of the new year. When he opened it, he was startled. Yes, I didn't write it down on the list, so I took it and sent it to her here.

Yin Huan hurriedly burned his triumphant letter, letting people know that she was no longer a harborer of stolen goods, and asked Er Dong to stuff the hot potato into the warehouse.

And then in the Lu Mansion, Lu Chongyan thought for a long time and decided to take out all his belongings, what to do, and quietly sent them to the Gu Mansion as a dowry for Gu Yinshuang. It took a lot of painstaking efforts, the wall was climbed, and the hand was dropped. I bought a lot of things in private and sent them to Gu's family.

And in this world, the only person who clearly knows what he's doing is Yin Huan. In the previous life, even if the second sister was raised by her mother, Lu Chongyan was still looking forward to this thing as a dowry for her, and now the situation is even more embarrassing. How could Yin Huan let go of such a good opportunity.

After Lu Chongyan counted all his belongings, he thought that no one knew about it, and when he sent it to Gu's house in the dark and windy night, as soon as the things left the back door of Lu's house and before they were loaded into the carriage, Mrs. Lu appeared with someone.

In this new year's day, there is another incident in the family reunion chatting after tea. The second son of the Lu family quietly sent his future daughter-in-law to marry him in the middle of the night, but he was arrested by Mrs. Lu as soon as he went out. When I went back, Mrs. Lu confiscated all the things that were not delivered. I don't know how many things this young master Lu sent to the Gu family before. People say that giving birth to a daughter is a loser. It seems that the second young master of the Lu family also gave money to others.
