www.lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter of Sheng Chong's Daughter-in-law: The Medical Concubine!
The next day, after breakfast, Xiao Yi went out early, saying that he was going to General Tian's Mansion. He specifically told Nangong Yue not to go to the main courtyard to say hello, and that he would take her to visit Biji when he came back. Xiaotang.
Nangong Yue was noncommittal and sent him out with a smile, and then said to Baihui: "Let's go to the main courtyard."
Baihui hesitated and said: "But the prince said..."
Nangong Yue smiled, "It would be my fault if I don't go... let's go."
Baihui knew that her eldest daughter had an idea, so she went out with her without any further persuasion.
When we arrived, Xiao Fang had just finished his meal.
Based on yesterday's experience, Xiao Fang guessed that Nangong Yue must be known as "virtuous and virtuous", so she would definitely come to pay her respects. So, she deliberately got up early in the morning, waiting for Nangong Yue to come over to set rules for her and serve her meals. However, after waiting and waiting, until she had finished her breakfast, Nangong Yue arrived belatedly.
Nangong Yue gave Xiao Fang a blessing and said respectfully: "I have met my mother."
Little Fang was really impatient with waiting. When he saw her, he said angrily: "The princess is here. What time is it?"
Nangong Yue said angrily: "Don't blame mother, my daughter-in-law is late."
It seems that since Xiao Yi is not here today, no one will support her, so she is much more docile.
Although Nangong Yue is a cunning woman, she still seems to want a reputation.
It’s easy to get a reputation!
Xiao Fang felt that she had discovered the truth, raised the corners of her lips slightly, and said, "It's better if you just realize your mistake." Her face darkened, and she sighed, "I'm just a person who had my life taken away from me. Woman, the crown prince, the concubine, and the princess, come to me to check my morning and evening affairs, they really upset me."
Xiao Fang said this deliberately. If she were an ordinary daughter-in-law, she would be frightened, and he could take the opportunity to convince her.
Between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, either the east wind overpowers the west wind, or the west wind overpowers the east wind. If she doesn’t make Nangong Yue submissive now, she will only become more arrogant in the future!
Little Fang continued to sigh and said: "It's a pity that we have never given birth to a princess's daughter-in-law in southern Xinjiang. Otherwise, I can also ask how to get along well with the princess." The implication of her words was , if Nangong Yue does anything inappropriate, everyone in Southern Xinjiang will know about her disobedience and unfilial piety.
If this Nangong family wants to be famous, she should serve her well, otherwise her reputation in southern Xinjiang will be ruined!
"Mother..."
Sure enough, she saw Nangong Yue looking at her with fear. The corners of Xiao Fang's lips curved up, with a trace of amusement in her eyes. She picked up the tea cup and took a sip, and said: "What's the matter with morning and evening?" Yes, it doesn’t matter if the princess doesn’t come.”
Nangong Yue let out a long sigh and said helplessly: "My daughter-in-law has heard of her mother's reputation as a kind person in the royal capital, but today she found out that her mother is even worse than the rumors. My daughter-in-law thanked her mother for sparing her daughter-in-law. The morning and evening are calm."
Xiao Fang's eyes suddenly widened and he looked at her in disbelief.
How could he avoid her morning and dusk meditation? How could she misinterpret her words like this? !
Nangong Yue looked at her with gratitude and continued: "...The daughter-in-law is really scared, but she can't let down her mother's kindness. Why not come to pay her respects to the mother and concubine on the first and fifteenth day of every month. I hope my mother-in-law won’t shirk it anymore.”
Little Fang was speechless, and the hand holding the teacup was trembling, as if she could no longer hold it.
Nangong Yue added: "My daughter-in-law is here for the first time, and Bixiaotang is still in a mess. She needs her to take care of it. If my mother has nothing to do today, I can allow my daughter-in-law to leave first."
Nangong Yue naturally acquiesced that she had agreed, and said, "Thank you, mother." She blessed herself and left with Baihui.
You can imagine how Xiao Fang will be furious after she leaves, no matter that it has nothing to do with her.
Looking at Bai Hui who was smiling sullenly, Nangong Yue said with a smile: "...it would be my fault if I didn't go during this morning and dusk period. But now, since my mother loves me so much, she can't let her down. Isn’t it mother’s kindness?”
Baihui responded happily: "The Crown Princess is right!"
"Let's go back, there are still a lot of things to do today."
As soon as Nangong Yue returned to Bixiaotang's room, Que'er came over and bowed in salute.
After Nangong Yue sat down, she listened to her report: "Concubine, I have already inquired about it, and now it is Concubine Wei who is presiding over the imperial concubine in the palace." As she said that, she handed over the lists in her hand. Asked Nangong Yue, "These are the things that I have discovered in the past two days."
She is indeed the concubine Wei. Nangong Yue tilted her head slightly, took the order, glanced at it, and raised her brows slightly. Que'er was good at snooping, and it took only two days to prepare what she wanted.
The list contained the list of Bixiaotang’s servants, which were divided into two categories based on the sons born in the family and the slaves purchased. The sons born in the family were the most complicated part, especially those who had been born for three generations starting from King Nan of Old Town. The relationship between servants and other servants in the house is intertwined, which is particularly consuming. And some of the children in this family were brought by the Dafang family and the Xiaofang family from the Fang family, which also involves their relatives in the Fang family...
Quie'er said sheepishly at the side: "Prince Concubine, originally I wanted to check their relatives outside, or whether they have purchased property or something, but..." In fact, she was born in a different place in southern Xinjiang. Familiar, there is nowhere to start at the moment.
Nangong Yue smiled and said: "Quie'er, you have done a good job. Don't worry about the rest, let's do it step by step."
After being praised by Nangong Yue, Queer happily responded.
After Nangong Yue pondered for a moment, he then said: "Que'er, you go to Concubine Wei and tell her that we don't have enough people when we come back and we want more children from the royal family."
It has been six years since Xiao Yi left Southern Xinjiang. The people who used to serve him are probably no longer needed. This Bixiaotang still needs some people to work.
"Yes, Crown Princess." After Que'er accepted the order, he trotted away briskly.
Nangong Yue ordered someone to call An Niang over again.
After burning the incense, Que'er came back, bringing back a fat nanny wearing an apricot-yellow plain coat, and ten or twenty little maids in blue dresses.
The fat nun ordered the little maids to wait in the yard, while she followed Que'er into the main room to meet Nangong Yue.
After the two of them knelt down and saluted, Que'er introduced: "The Crown Princess, this is Grandma Feng. Concubine Wei asked Grandma Feng to bring some people for the Crown Princess to choose."
Nanny Feng looked at Nangong Yue without leaving any trace, and said respectfully: "Prince Concubine, I specially selected the thirty best among them and brought them here, and also asked the Crown Princess to take a look and see which ones I like. ”
Nangong Yue nodded and said politely: "Mother Feng, thank you for your trouble."
Nangong Yue took An Niang and Que'er to the yard and looked at the little girls.
Mother Feng does a pretty good job. Judging from the clothes of these little girls, not to mention whether they can do it or not, at least they have tidied themselves up.
After all, the little girls were still young. When they saw Nangong Yue coming, they couldn't help but glance at her secretly, wanting to see what the Crown Princess from the royal capital looked like. Then he stood calmly with his head lowered and his eyebrows lowered.
After Nangong Yue took a glance, she had a rough idea, so she whispered a few instructions in Que'er's ear and went back to the house.
Quie'er cleared her throat at the little maids and said, "This is the first time I met you, and I don't know what your temperament is, what you are good at, and who is in your family... Now you are talking to me one by one. Talk about it, and then I’ll see what errands I can arrange for you. Don’t try to deceive me, there are so many people in this palace, it’s really impossible to lie, and it’s impossible to be true.”
Que'er asked them to tell them this for two purposes. First, it was to pick out those with unsuitable backgrounds, for example, those related to Xiao Fang's family; secondly, if this little girl was good at needlework, You can't just force others to do menial tasks like sweeping.
Those little maids looked at each other, and some of them looked a little ugly. Originally, their master wanted to take advantage of the fact that the Crown Princess still had a dark eye on the palace, to crowd in Bixiaotang. It seemed that was not the case. It will be so smooth. But those among them who had a clear conscience immediately calmed down and told Magpie one by one. Huamei recorded them one by one and asked the maids to take their fingerprints.
In the end, a total of fifteen people were selected, and the other little girls were taken back by Grandma Feng.
Although the people have been selected, they are not able to work in Bixiaotang immediately. They still need to follow An Niang for a few days to learn the rules of Bixiaotang clearly and put themselves into practice every day. The things that should be done in the day were also clarified, the most important of which was not to enter the yard of the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess, and just stay where they were supposed to work on weekdays.
As for Que'er, he took the list that Huamei had just written down and showed it to Nangong Yue. Nangong Yue just flipped through it casually without saying anything.
Anyway, they are just rough messengers. Not to mention anything else in the palace, the family has a lot of children. If you are not satisfied, you can change them at any time.
At this moment, Xiao Yi came back from outside.
The two had a leisurely lunch together. After the maids served hot tea for digestion, Nangong Yue happily told Xiao Yi what happened after he left in the morning while drinking tea... Of course, what cannot be missed is the confrontation between her and Xiao Fang.
When he heard that Nangong Yue's few words made Xiao Fang unable to speak out, Xiao Yi's eyes were full of smiles, he put down the tea cup, clasped his fists and said: "The Crown Princess is really becoming more and more powerful, I admire her!" He said I was originally worried that Xiao Fang would embarrass Nangong Yue by taking advantage of the daily morning and dusk routines. Even if it was just a daily meal, which was not painful or itchy, it would still be unpleasant enough. Now Nangong Yue has changed from passive to active and changed the daily morning and evening calculations to the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month. In this way, even if word spreads, outsiders cannot find fault.
"Where is it!" Nangong Yue also clasped her fists politely, "I owe my concubine such skill to the prince's painstaking teachings over the years." She tilted her head, showing a bright and cunning smile, like Like a little fox.
Xiao Yi was dumbfounded. He suddenly hugged her and kissed her hard. He just felt that his wife was so cute, so smart, and so pitiable!
Que'er, who was serving at the side, looked away embarrassedly, thinking: This is how it is now. How will I live my life when the imperial concubine grows up?
The two of them rubbed each other and made each other intimate for a while. Xiao Yi finally let go of Nangong Yue, stood up and said, "Ah Yue, wait for me here while I go get something."
After a while, he happily brought a scroll of paintings and handed it to Nangong Yue.
Nangong Yue opened it and raised her eyebrows slightly. This is not a painting, it turns out to be a blueprint, a blueprint of Bixiaotang. From the drawing, the layout of Bixiaotang is clear at a glance.
Xiao Yi said with a smile: "Smelly girl, let me take you to visit Bixiaotang."
Nangong Yue naturally understood Xiao Yi’s thoughts, and a soft light flashed in his eyes.
The two of them started walking around the Bixiaotang from the inner courtyard.
As Xiao Yi walked, he explained to Nangong Yue the drawing.
Next to the yard where they lived was a small garden. There were two gates in the garden, one connected to the backyard of the palace and the other connected to Bixiaotang. The small garden is actually not small, but it is nearly half smaller than the large garden behind the palace. The garden has a winding verandah, surrounded by rockeries, lush flowers and trees, and a small lake with a water pavilion built on it. It should be a good place to enjoy the cool weather in summer.
Nangong Yue looked at the drawing carefully while observing the small garden. According to the drawing, in front of the small garden is the small flower hall. It would be convenient to entertain guests here. After using the banquet, you can go to this garden You can also enjoy flower viewing, or you can set up a stage or something... Nangong Yue thoughtfully began to plan.
