Ci Jinzhi

  Chapter 100 Rewards

  Dai Ze was spoiled and spoiled, needless to say he was beaten until he cried like a ghost. On the way back to Shaoqing Mansion from Bailu Mountain, the old lady never let go of Xin You's hand.

   "Qingqing, how did you save the eldest princess's beloved daughter? Tell your grandmother carefully."

Faced with the old lady's excitement, Xinyou's face was calm: "I happened to be picking flowers with my cousin Ling, when I looked up and saw a wild boar rushing towards me, I didn't think about anything at the time, and then I realized that I was holding the eldest princess's beloved daughter and running away gone."

   "It's a blessing." The old lady sighed.

   This is a life-saving grace, and it has been known by so many people. Just because of this, others dare not neglect their granddaughter. If the granddaughter and second grandson become successful in the future, it will be of great benefit to the Shaoqing Mansion.

  Thinking that the eldest princess' mansion might have something to say, and even have contacts since then, the old lady took the initiative to talk about the eldest princess Zhaoyang.

   "Today there is only the eldest princess as a sibling, and she values ​​her only sister very much. The eldest princess has a son and a daughter. The son has not reached the crown yet, and the daughter is the girl you saved today..."

  As an old lady, although she can't reach Princess Zhaoyang, she still knows these things very well. This is the basic homework for ladies in the capital.

"The eldest princess's husband's family name is Kong. The son-in-law passed away many years ago, and the daughter is a posthumous child. The eldest princess and the son-in-law have a good relationship. If you have the opportunity to come to the eldest princess, remember not to mention this matter. Then there is the eldest princess and the harem concubine. The concubine's relationship is mediocre, so don't show any affection for the concubine."

  Worried that her granddaughter was thinking about it, the old lady hurriedly told her: "It's not that you are really disrespectful to the concubine, but just be more cautious in front of the eldest princess."

  Families like them can't afford to offend the eldest princess, nor can they offend the concubine.

   "I see." Xin You really needed to know the information, and it was rare to see this old lady who valued money over family affection was more pleasing to the eye.

  The old lady showed a loving smile: "Grandmother knows that Qingqing is sensible."

  Xin You smiled back: "Grandmother, why is the relationship between the eldest princess and the concubine so normal?"

  It is quite common for any official and family member in the capital to know.

  The old lady's complexion changed slightly, and she said vaguely: "Don't ask too much about the court, just remember it. Grandmother is also tired, so take a rest."

  The cabin fell silent.

  In the third carriage, Duan Yunling and Duan Yunhua were still leaning to one side, as if the well water did not interfere with the river water.

  Duan Yunhua looked at Duan Yunling frequently, and finally couldn't help asking: "Is it really Kou Qingqing who saved the eldest princess' beloved daughter?"

  Duan Yunling looked at Duan Yunhua, and bent the corners of her lips: "So many people have seen it with their own eyes, why does the second sister still ask such a question?"

  I don't want my cousin to be kind to the eldest princess, so I can't show off in front of my cousin from now on.

  Don't want to fight, Duan Yunling didn't say this, but Duan Yunhua guessed it all at once.

"Do you think I'm jealous of Kou Qingqing? Don't you think it's strange? Kou Qingqing didn't dare to speak loudly before. When she came to visit Bailu Mountain last year, she didn't know where to hide alone. Why does she seem to be a different person now? How dare such a big boar rush to save people—" Duan Yunhua noticed that there was something strange in Duan Yunling's eyes, and Duan Yunhua frowned, "What kind of eyes do you have?"

  Duan Yunling chuckled: "Second Sister, did you forget something?"

"What's up?"

   "Cousin Qing has lost her memory. She doesn't even remember what she was like before, so she can't do whatever she wants now?"

  Duan Yunhua really forgot this point, and immediately became angry: "I think she is bewitched!"

  Duan Yunling's face sank: "Second sister, I advise you to be cautious. Cousin Qing has just saved the eldest princess's daughter. What good will it do for the Shaoqing Mansion if this word is spread? What good will it do for you and me?"

  Duan Yunhua snorted coldly and remained silent.

  Not long after the group returned to Shaoqing's Mansion, the steward of the Princess's Mansion came to the door with a generous gift.

   "Our Highness has gone to the palace, and ordered the villain to prepare some small gifts. First, thank Miss Kou."

  From the corner of her eye, the old lady glanced at the gifts that could not fit in the flower hall. Princess Xindao's mansion is really modest, calling this a small gift.

  Of course, these gifts are nothing, what makes the old lady secretly happy is the attitude of the eldest princess.

   "His Royal Highness, the eldest princess, is really polite, Qingqing is just a little effort."

  Xin You nodded slightly.

  The steward gave Xin You a deep bow before leaving.

   "Qingqing, how do you arrange these gifts? Receive them in the warehouse of Wan Qingju, or send them to the bookstore?"

  The granddaughter can climb up to the eldest princess, so it is impossible for the old lady to miss this thing.

Xin You scanned the presents and said with a smile: "Grandmother and second aunt pick four pieces of cloth that they like, Cousin Ling and Cousin Yan pick two pieces, and these two sisters also choose a set of jewelry, and give away the rest. Go to the bookstore."

  The cloth sent by the Princess Palace as a thank you gift is naturally unusual, and the jewelry is also specially selected for the style that young girls like.

   "Thank you, Cousin Qing." Duan Yunling thanked happily.

  Duan Yunyan is young, and she is even more happy when she sees those exquisite and small jewelry.

  Only Duan Yunhua was so angry that his hands shook, he gritted his teeth and asked, "Cousin Qing, are you humiliating me on purpose?"

Xin You was shocked: "Could it be possible that Miss Hua forgot that I moved out because I was humiliated by you, so why should Baba give you a gift? If you think I'm just doing superficial things in order to gain a great reputation, that's a shame. That's right, I'm not the type to make myself feel aggrieved for the sake of face."

  Duan Yunhua's face flushed red: "Grandma—"

  The old lady reprimanded with a sullen face: "Don't yell at every turn, what a shame."

  Everyone has their own but they don’t give it to her. The grandmother scolded her instead of saying that the other party was too bad.

  The old lady's eyes sank, and she was even more disappointed with this granddaughter.

  Duan Yunhua ran back to the boudoir and cried bitterly on his pillow, crying and fell asleep, and was woken up by the maidservant after some time.

  Already aggrieved and woken up again, Duan Yunhua was in an even worse mood, he pushed away the maid's hand and asked coldly, "What's the matter?"

  The maid quietly stood a little further away: "The old lady told you to go to the front quickly, there are people coming from the palace."

  Duan Yunhua looked astonished: "In the palace? How could someone come from the palace?"

   "It is said that today the Lord found out about Cousin's rescue of the eldest princess's beloved daughter, and sent someone to give Cousin a reward. The masters of our house will all go to thank her."

  Duan Yunhua felt dizzy for a while.

  Give Kou Qingqing a reward, and she still has to kneel down to thank her. Is there such a shame in the world?

   "Miss, you have to hurry up, people from the palace can't be neglected."

  Duan Yunhua rushed forward with a dark face.

  Xin You, who also received the news, asked the maid who reported the letter with a blank expression: "Did the emperor give me a gift?"

   "Yes, the father-in-law who gave the reward is waiting in front." I don't know if it was an illusion, but the cousin seemed to be in a bad mood, and the maid did not urge her.

  After being silent for a while, Xin You walked forward.
