He Xiang actually had some vague guesses. After all, the young lady was about to get married, so all arrangements would be made for her.
Sure enough, Chu Yunxi asked:
"Lotus fragrance, scholar, businessman, doctor, which one do you like?"
Hexiang's face immediately turned red. Did the lady ask this too directly? In the past, she would have said that it was entirely up to the lady to make the decision. After all, the lady would not harm her, and her vision was better than hers.
But now, every time she thinks about getting married, the person who has repeatedly protected her will always appear in front of her eyes. He Xiang pursed her lips and mustered up her courage.
"Miss, I don't even like it."
Chu Yunxi didn't expect that He Xiang's spirit was already so high. After thinking about it, he still advised:
"He Xiang, if I really want to marry you to a wealthy family, it's not impossible, but in that case..."
Chu Yunxi hesitated to speak, fearing to hurt He Xiang's self-esteem. However, He Xiang waved her hands quickly.
"No, it's not what the young lady thinks. It's not that He Xiang dislikes the poor and loves the rich, or looks down upon their family background."
"That is?"
Chu Yunxi was puzzled. If he didn't dislike his family background, why didn't he want to do it?
"If you are worried about your character, I have checked it for you, Miss. They are all good."
He Xiang really didn't know how to talk to the young lady. She had never said that she liked her. Could it be that she, a woman, wanted to have wishful thinking? Wouldn't it make people laugh?
"I, I don't even know them. I haven't even met them. How can I like them?"
Chu Yunxi nodded, that's it. After all, a woman's marriage is a major event related to her lifelong happiness.
She just said that she still had to bring them all to Hexiang and let Hexiang see and choose them in person.
Chu Yunxi made up his mind and said no more.
"Then let's discuss this matter another day."
He Xiang felt relieved and nodded repeatedly.
Chu Yunxi took out a newly drawn pattern.
"Please tell me, does this pattern look good? I want to embroider it on my purse."
The purse he gave to Jun Lingyun last time was carried by his precious child every day. His Majesty, the Crown Prince, could not afford a change of purse.
Chu Yunxi thought that it would be better to embroider a new one and give it to Jun Lingyun as a wedding gift. He should be happy. Thinking of Jun Lingyun's smile, Chu Yunxi's little heart couldn't help but beat a few times.
Hexiang glanced at the pattern in Chu Yunxi's hand and knew it was for a man to wear, so she tilted her head and smiled.
"Miss, whatever you want to embroider, His Highness will like it. Even if it is a piece of grass, His Highness will wear it like a treasure."
There are only orchids and grass painted on the pattern.
Chu Yunxi smiled and poked He Xiang's waist.
"You should also imitate Xiaolian and have a poor mouth. Please tell me, does it look good?"
"The painting made by the lady is naturally good."
The master and servant were talking and laughing, but laughter like silver bells came from outside.
The two of them looked outside and saw that Princess Guo, Princess Shengya, and Su Yan were here together.
He Xiang hurriedly stood up, saluted, and stepped aside.
Chu Yunxi smiled so hard that he couldn't even see his eyebrows.
"What kind of wind brings you here together?"
Su Yan teased:
"It's not like you're about to get married. Mother sent me to see if there's anything I can do to help you."
"Thank you, aunt, for thinking about me."
"I'm also here for my mother. It's inconvenient for her to have a big belly. They say a sister-in-law is like a mother. If you need anything, just tell me."
"Thank you, sister-in-law."
"I came to see how my good sisters are preparing to get married, so that I can imitate her in the future."
Princess Shengya's words instantly made everyone laugh. However, there seemed to be a hint of sadness beneath Su Yan's smiling face. Her cousin was about to get married, and her heart was not settled yet.
Chu Yunxi felt warm in her heart. This feeling of being surrounded by family and friends was so good. Having lost it, she cherished this rare warmth even more.
How many people can you find in your lifetime who treat you sincerely?
Although she, Chu Yunxi, died alone and tragically in her previous life, in this life, not only was her family present, but she also had so many good sisters. She had to thank God for his mercy.
"Hey, look, my sister is going to embroider a purse for her husband."
Princess Shengya picked up Chu Yunxi's drawing with sharp eyes and shook it in her hand.
"Hey, Shengya, stop making trouble and return it to me quickly."
Chu Yunxi blushed with embarrassment. She could just talk to her maid behind closed doors about this kind of thing. But now that these good sisters saw her, she was so embarrassed that she died of embarrassment.
"I won't give it to you unless you embroider one for me!"
Princess Shengya passed the pattern to Su Yan, and Su Yan also smiled and said:
"He who sees it has a share."
Just as Chu Yunxi was about to get it, Su Yan passed it to Princess Guo.
Princess Guo only glanced at it and returned it to Chu Yunxi with a smile. She was someone who had been there, so she naturally knew how to prepare a gift for her sweetheart.
"Just spare Xi'er. She is a very busy person now. How can she find time to make money for you?"
Chu Yunxi took Princess Guo's arm and acted coquettishly.
"Good sister-in-law, I know you love me the most."
Princess Shengya proudly rolled up her sleeves:
"Is there anything that sister is not ready for? This is the first time for this princess to listen to someone's orders. This opportunity cannot be missed and the time will never come again. Don't say that my sister doesn't love you later."
Several people covered their mouths and snickered. Sitting in a circle, they also cherished this gathering before Chu Yunxi got married.
After Chu Yunxi moves into the palace, Princess Shengya will also go back to Nanyan Kingdom. Su Yan is a minister and cannot enter the palace all the time. Although Princess Guo can enter, she will also take care of the emperor and treat her in the palace.
of fear.
All in all, from now on we will be together less and more apart. Days of gathering together like this are even rarer.
Several women of the same age, all of whom have extraordinary status, are like mirrors in their hearts. They know their missions, but they only tacitly understand them.
Even if you don't do anything, you just sit around talking and laughing, embroidering flowers, drinking tea, and eating some fruits as a toothpaste, half a day will pass like this.
When it was getting dark, I sent my good sisters away, and the room suddenly became empty. Although He Xiang and Xiao Lian were still busy, Chu Yunxi always felt a little lost.
After a tiring day, she reclined on the couch to rest, feeling confused in her heart.
Thinking about this life's completely different fate from her previous life, thinking about everything she has now, and thinking about her enemies who have fallen one by one.
But she still often has lingering fears. She is afraid that if she makes a wrong move, she will lose everything.
Every move of the academy she founded was under the supervision of the emperor. As the academy grew, wouldn't the emperor think of the former Sikong Academy?
In the future, will it follow in the footsteps of Sikong Academy?
Nowadays, the Chu family is also prospering, and the brothers are all trying their best.
The eldest brother manages military affairs with his father. Although he is only a fifth-grade general with a thousand households, once he starts a war with the Northern Barbarians and achieves military exploits, he can go a step further. He is also married to Prince Hao's Mansion. And according to what Chu Yunxi now knows, the emperor
The person he fears the most is undoubtedly Prince Hao.
The second brother is in charge of the Hanlin Academy, and the third brother is in charge of the household department, which is pretty much it.
There were few people in the court who would openly oppose the Chu family. And this was definitely not a situation the emperor wanted to see.
