Nangong Shuiyao couldn't hold back the smile on her face. She had never been so humble before...
Nangong Shuiyao's liver hurt with anger, but she still didn't dare to show any displeasure in front of Ye Xue. She said, "For my aunt's sake, can you forgive Ao Chu for once? Speaking of which, he is also you."
Cousin... As a family, why should we cause trouble in the whole city and let others laugh? "
Ye Xue said nothing. She took the antique tea cup on the coffee table and played with it, while staring at a landscape painting hanging on the wall.
Ye Xue said to Nangong Shuiyao with a smile: "The Queen is worthy of being the queen of a country. A teacup and a painting are all top-notch."
Nangong Shuiyao immediately said: "If you like it, my aunt will give it to you and say..."
Why is Ye Xue's eyelids so shallow? She smiled and said: "I can be considered a rich person, but I am a woman and hundreds of people in the house have to rely on me to support me. As an internal minister, I have a lot to do and I have to practice martial arts.
I have a lot of shops and farms in my hands, but I don’t have time to take care of them. In less than a month, the shops have been losing money again and again, and the farm’s harvest is not good. No matter how much money I have, I can’t afford these troubles. Sooner or later, I will have to
It’s a waste of time…”
Ye Xue sighed and shook her head.
Nangong Shuiyao's expression changed. Although she didn't know whether the shop in Ye Xue's hands was in ruins or not, she had read a lot of books and knew that it was only May, and even the food supply in the imperial village with the best location was limited.
Only a few young leaves have grown, and it's still early for the harvest... However, when Ye Xue said this, Nangong Shuiyao knew what she wanted.
Nangong Shuiyao called her confidants to come in and whispered a few words.
It was just a tea time when the confidant maid and several eunuchs brought in three boxes.
The palace maid opened the box, and a gleaming golden jewel illuminated Ye Xue's face.
A box of various colored jewelry and pearl jewelry; a box of gold bars, gold leaves, and gold ingots; a box of Sichuan brocade and Yun brocade worth ten thousand gold.
Ye Xue stepped forward and looked at the boxes one by one: in the cloth box, in addition to the valuable and unmarketable Yun brocade and Shu brocade, there were also other cloths with flowers and butterflies; needless to say, the gold box was obvious at a glance; the last box was a
Gold is the more precious gem box, and the smallest one contains rubies and sapphires as big as a pinky finger, glossy and round white and pink pearls, and all kinds of luxurious and luxurious hairpins that are very valuable at a glance.
Nangong Shuiyao smiled heartbrokenly and said: "Speaking of the last time we met at Cining Palace, my aunt didn't have anything good to give you at that time. Today, these are one to make up for your meeting gift; and two, to congratulate you on your promotion to a first-class official.
; Three... You are a very smart child, and your aunt thinks you understand..."
It would be a lie to say that Ye Xue was not moved by seeing these three boxes full of gold and silver jewelry. But...
Ye Xue declined: "The gift given by the empress is too heavy, and Ye Xue dare not accept it!"
"Aunt and nephew, why are you so polite to me? I'll ask a few servants to carry you to the princess' mansion later..."
"Your Majesty is so loving, I really can't accept it!" Ye Xue said very firmly.
Nangong Shuiyao gave an ugly smile and was silent for a while. Finally, she called her confidant maid in, "Go and get my sandalwood and lacquered gold box!"
When the palace maid heard this, she exclaimed: "Your Majesty..."
"Go quickly!" Nangong Shuiyao Leng Ling scolded.
"Yes!" The palace maid gritted her teeth, glared at Ye Xue, and then left quickly.
