Lin Jiangwan calmed down, took a sip of tea, put the tea cup on the table, lowered his attitude and said softly, "Xiu'er... you know, your eldest cousin is in the palace... the ladies in the palace, there are
Some are from famous families, some are beautiful, some have outstanding talents, and some even... know how to joke and joke... Your eldest cousin currently only has a princess in front of her. She is getting older day by day, and this pressure is not small!
"It's like a heart-to-heart chat...it's not what she originally wanted to show.
Lin Zhixiu smiled and said, "Aunt, you are a mother, and you are always worried about your daughter. In fact, how can it be so serious? Although the empresses in the palace have their own styles, like my sister Yun, who has a good family background
, she is good-looking, talented, and young, and she gave birth to a princess right after she entered the palace... She is simply the best in every aspect, isn't that rare?" She blinked her eyes firmly, looking trusting.
Mrs. Lin wanted to smile bitterly. Queen Wen was the emperor's first wife. She came from a high family, but she was very ordinary in appearance. She was one year older than the emperor. Not only was she very old, but she was also in very poor health.
Concubine De is also an old man in the Prince's Palace. She is not tall. Although she has given birth to two sons, her ability, appearance, and demeanor are all very ordinary.
The most beautiful concubine, Li Fei, has nothing to mention except her appearance! The other concubines are even less outstanding.
People like Yan Yun, who are good in every aspect, are really the best.
It was only after knowing this situation that I decided to send my daughter to the palace.
The queen has been in poor health, and I heard that she can't get out of bed now. At that time, I had dreamed that if the queen died, my daughter would be able to take care of her.
Lin Jiangwan sighed, "Oh, it can't be that easy! Xiu'er... Every autumn hunting is the most important festival for the emperor. Before that, a royal banquet will be held in the palace. My aunt wants to give your eldest cousin a set of condoms.
Jewelry will make her look dazzling at this banquet!"
Lin Zhixiu nodded, "Auntie, this is a good idea! Let the eldest cousin dress up to look good and outshine the rest!"
Lin Jiangwan said, "It's just that this kind of jewelry is hard to find! It's hard to find something that's surprising but not too frivolous!"
Lin Zhixiu said, "Auntie, go look for the best jewelry store! Do you want Xiu'er to accompany you? Xiu'er also has a good taste. I came to the capital and haven't had a chance to go out yet! I just happened to accompany my aunt.
One circle." He looked quite happy.
Lin Jiangwan said something in advance, but when the other party didn't answer, he felt a little boring. Then he thought, how could a little girl have so many thoughts? So he said gently, "Xiu'er, aunt remembers that when your mother was young, she always
There are some novel jewelry. At that time, she was the most popular in our circle. Haha! Well... do you have any novel jewelry for my aunt to refer to?!"
Lin Zhixiu, "Auntie, you are joking! My mother likes these things. She has a lot of jewelry, but not all of it is expensive! Moreover, most of them are looking for something unique. To wear between the little girls or at friends' gatherings. Look at it.
It's fun to talk and laugh about it. But if you wear it in the palace... you might make people laugh! The status and occasion are different..."
When Lin Jiangwan thought about it, she quite understood! However, this was indeed true.
only……
So he said patiently, "What you said makes sense, but you didn't understand what my aunt meant. My aunt is planning to take a different path this time. When your cousin entered the palace, she brought a lot of expensive jewelry. Later, your uncle and aunt
, and also sent in many fine gems, pearls, jade, and everything else. Moreover, the palace also has regulations, including birthdays, New Years, special events, etc... The emperor will give them, and the Queen Mother will reward them.
They are all very expensive. But... they all have the same style, too cookie-cutter! My aunt wants to find something new and innovative... but they don’t necessarily need to be more expensive!"
Lin Zhixiu smiled and gave Lin Jiangwan another half cup of tea, thinking to herself: Lin Jiangwan, it is not for nothing. Her method is used in the palace... It sounds ordinary, childish, even
It's a bit whimsical...but in the last life, it was successful.
As the saying goes, no coincidence can make a book!
She also added a glass to herself... But, she was greedy for her own things and got the result she wanted. Instead of repaying her support, she only got worse!
And when she fell into the quagmire, Yan Yun rose like a star. With Lin Jiangwan's status, as long as she opened her mouth, she would not have such a tragic ending. But she didn't have any mercy, and she probably... despised herself.
Is it embarrassing for her?
Haha... I want to laugh out loud.
"Haha... That's right. Auntie's idea is very good!" Lin Zhixiu responded and stopped talking. She turned to Nan Yan and called Nan Yan, "Bring another bucket of water."
Then he started boiling water in a small copper kettle.
Lin Zhixiu asked, "Auntie, do you want to heat the water you boil here?"
Mrs. Lin patted her neck lightly with a handkerchief. She was sweating a little, but it wasn't because she was hot, but because she was a little anxious. She waited for a while and saw Lin Zhixiu doing her work. She didn't continue the topic with her and directly pointed out, "
Xiu'er, can you let your aunt take a look at the jewelry in your hand? It will open her eyes and give her some inspiration. If you like it, your aunt can also ask the jewelry master to make it carefully... What do you think?"
"Oh? Okay. Some of my mother's jewelry were designed by my father! Hehe... My father treats my mother really well. It's just that, aunt, some of my jewelry is in Xiu'er's hands, and some of it is in Xiu'er's hands.
My uncle is helping to keep it. Well, why don't you show it to your aunt first? If you don't like it, ask your uncle to bring some. If your aunt likes it, please quickly ask the master to make it!
"
She said without any thought.
Lin Jiangwan had the same plan at first, but when Lin Zhixiu said it... she felt that it was hard to hear.
Originally, she just wanted to see if Lin Zhixiu had anything new in hand and open up her mind. To put it at a lower level, if there was something she liked that the master couldn't make or didn't have time to make... give it to her at a discount, or use it herself.
Just change the jewelry.
But...this girl is so close to an adopted uncle, both inside and outside her words!
On the contrary, she is very estranged from my biological aunt. You and I, you can tell us clearly!
A little girl versus the empress in the palace. A cousin with a low status versus a cousin with a high status.
If there is no respect or filial piety, what’s the point?
Don't say that I'm just taking a look and asking you to show your respect. What else can you say?
Your cousin has taken up residence in the palace, don't you take advantage of it? Don't the Lin family take advantage of it?
As a daughter of the Lin family, what right does she have to not fulfill her responsibilities to the Lin family?!
She was angry and looked bad: "Take it out first and let me take a look!"
Lin Zhixiu smiled and ordered Dongyun to take out several sets of jewelry she had prepared before.
Among them, there is the set of golden wheat ears.
Several boxes were opened, making Lin's face light up.
She ignored Lin Zhixiu and looked carefully at these sets of jewelry, not to mention exquisite. The key point is that each has its own characteristics, different shapes, and different styles. It is extremely rare, and some are even a little strange...their common characteristics
The workmanship is complex and unique...
Such as this set of wheat hairpins!
Lin finally picked it up after reading several other sets.
Twelve in total, made of heavy gold. But I don’t know if it’s a content problem or something added to this gold. The color is like ears of wheat under the sun. And the shape is lifelike, with thin wheat needles and round wheat grains. The surface is
It's not smooth, it has the texture of wheat ears, and each one has a different shape.
This is... a really inexplicable thing!
Ms. Lin couldn't help but sneer, "Your mother! You're so good! There are also jewelry like this."
Lin Zhixiu smiled and said nothing, but also picked up one to look at.
"Generally speaking, among the people, the metaphor of putting a straw mark on the head is not very good. But this is wheat, so maybe it is not included! It is quite fun... Have you seen your mother wear it?" Lin Jiang
Late question.
"I've seen it before! When my mother put it on, my father would point at it and laugh endlessly."
Lin Jiangwan thought, it was really just for fun...boring!
Lin Zhixiu was a little sad. Those scenes from the past were unfolding before her eyes. She would rather sacrifice everything and have her parents come back to her...
Lin Jiangwan looked up and saw Lin Zhixiu's somewhat lonely expression.
He just said, "Auntie thinks these sets are quite interesting... Xiu'er, do you think this is good? Tomorrow, aunt will take you to Fangqi and let the master take a look at these and what he has to say."
Lin Zhixiu smiled and said, "Okay aunt, Xiu'er will go with you."
Lin Jiangwan said a few more perfunctory words, got up and went out.
Whether the conversation here was good or not, Lin Jiangwan felt a little unspeakably bored, so he played with the old lady for a while and returned home.
As soon as she left, Fang Qunqun came secretly again and asked Lin Zhixiu directly, "Why is your aunt here?"
Lin Zhixiu explained what Lin Jiangwan meant.
When Fang Qunqun heard this, she immediately said, "Ouch, Xiu'er, something is wrong! Let me tell you..." She leaned into Lin Zhixiu's ear, "I heard that your aunt got two sets from your grandmother.
The jewelry at the bottom of the box was packed away. Originally, your eldest aunt thought it was for your eldest brother! The two of them had a lot of troubles! Later, when she came home, there were fewer. Look at the birthday party a few days ago, they
The two of you sat next to each other and didn't say anything! Ah... Isn't he targeting you this time? "
Lin Zhixiu said, "My aunt, she is the wife of the prince of the Hou family! She is also my biological aunt, my only biological aunt. How could she do that?"
Fang Qunqun said, "That's not necessarily true! You have to..." She thought about this and muttered in a low voice, "Be careful. If she opens her mouth to ask, you have to think of how to say it! Oh my God! You can't open this hole, otherwise
Big trouble!"
Lin Zhixiu said, "Don't worry! How can my things be so easy to get?!"
The next day, Lin Jiangwan didn't come to pick up Lin Zhixiu. She went directly to the famous jewelry store. She sent Nanny Zhang to the Lin family and asked the Lin family to send Lin Zhixiu there in a car.
Yuan cursed in a low voice for a long time, then sent a horse-drawn cart to take Lin Zhixiu away.
The shelf was a bit big, but it was just what Lin Zhixiu wanted. She took Dongyun and Beihang, as well as Aunt Song, and went out with several boxes of jewelry.
