Chapter 424
I got up the next day and after breakfast, I disappeared from Shao Ziqing.
When it was noon, Jiang Zuiyao was sitting on the soft couch and basking in the sun. Xiyun walked in and said, "Master, the master sent someone to pass the message."
Jiang Zuiyao, who was warm all over the sun, sat up lazily, thinking that it must be about entering the palace last night, so she said, "Let him come in."
After taking a sip of hot water and cheering up his spirits, he watched the official Li Dan walk in. After all, he is in the Shao family with a strong official family. Jiang Zuiyao said unexpectedly: "Why is Mr. Li coming?"
Butler Li stood in front of Jiang Zuiyao with a proper manner and replied with a smile: "The master specially asked the servant to send a few words to the young lady."
Jiang Zuiyao also replied with a smile: "A few words, why do you have to trouble Mr. Li to come and go?"
Butler Li put his hands in front of him with his hands in a regular manner and said, "After all, it's about the matter in the palace, and I don't feel at ease to tell him to others. The master said that he went to the palace to meet the queen mother yesterday. The queen mother was very concerned about her when she learned that you were injured. The queen mother meant that when you are healthy, she would enter the palace."
Jiang Zuiyao nodded with a smile: "Well, I understand."
Butler Li said again: "The master also said that the fifth day of the fifth month next month is the Dragon Boat Festival, and the Queen Mother said that you and the eldest young master will enter the palace."
Jiang Zuiyao's face immediately changed subtly. I think the Queen Mother must have something to say, nothing more than all the things she experienced at the beginning.
"I know, I'm fine, butler Li will come to you." Jiang Zuiyao replied politely, butler Li smiled even more happily: "Slave is just a servant, and you can do the job of a slave. The master is still in charge of official duties and is not in the mansion. It's not easy to worry about you for a few words, and you'll send me a slave."
Jiang Zuiyao replied with a smile: "Butler Li stay here and have a cup of tea, the new Longjing this year."
Butler Li shook his head and said, "No, it's time to start spring, and the door is also changed. What the wife just ordered, so I dare not delay."
Jiang Zuiyao said, "Then go and do it quickly. Xiyun, pack a few ounces of Longjing and take it away for Butler Li."
Butler Li shook his head quickly: "I dare not, I dare not, that's for a master like you, the eldest young lady, and I dare not accept it."
Jiang Zuiyao said indifferently: "It's just a few taels of tea. Butler Li keeps it for daily consumption. Now I have to take medicine every day. If I can't drink such strong tea, you can just take it away. It's a pity to keep it moldy."
After Jiang Zuiyao said this, Butler Li had to accept it and said, "That servant is so lucky. Thank you, Mrs. Big Master."
Xiyun summoned Butler Li, and the two of them went out one after another.
Linghui walked in with charcoal and added charcoal to the brazier. Jiang Zuiyao said, "It's not that cold now, add less, the room is already very warm."
Linghui added charcoal fire and said, "Young Master has told me that you can't let you freeze, otherwise I should be scolded."
When Jiang Zuiyao heard this, she couldn't help but pursed her lips and smiled. She knew Shao Ziqing's hot temper, so she no longer stopped him. She just mentioned this person. Jiang Zuiyao asked, "Where has Shao Ziqing been? I didn't see him after breakfast."
Ling Hui shook her head: "The young master has had breakfast, went to see the lady, and went out with Chi Rong, without saying where to go."
Jiang Zuiyao no longer cares about it. After all, Shao Ziqing is not a young man from an ordinary family and always has something to do.
By chance, Jiang Zuiyao saw the gem-inlaid butterfly-played gilded hairpin on Linghui's head, and raised her lips and smiled: "This hairpin is still suitable for you to wear, it looks very beautiful."
Speaking of this, Linghui touched the golden hairpin on her head and smiled and said, "Really?"
Jiang Zuiyao nodded with a smile: "I tried it on it once, and I thought it was not good-looking, so I asked Xiyun to put it away. It's just right for you to wear it."
Linghui had filled the charcoal and straightened her waist and said, "After the day master said that, Sister Xiyun took me to the warehouse and asked me to pick it casually. Sister Xiyun said that I looked good when wearing it."
Jiang Zuiyao replied with satisfaction: "Yes, I remember this whole set of jewelry, why did you only bring a hairpin?"
Ling Hui smiled embarrassedly: "Sister Xiyun did get me a whole set, but this jewelry is precious. If you wear it all, it will be too eye-catching. I will be different from a golden hairpin."
Jiang Zuiyao picked up an orange and put it in her mouth, and said, "If you like something in the warehouse, tell me."
Ling Hui was even more embarrassed: "I have a low status. It would be enough to get such a good set of jewelry. Look at the mansion, the maid can match it with a golden hairpin. Even Xueqing beside her, she wore a golden hairpin, but it was not a gem inlaid on my head. Since that day, I have asked everyone when I learned that it was rewarded by the young lady, but they were all jewels."
This made Jiang Zuiyao smile, and Xiyun walked in and said, "Master, I have taken four or two Longjings and taken it away for the butler."
Jiang Zuiyao nodded. Xiyun saw Linghui's face full of joy and asked, "What are you talking about with Linghui? She is so happy."
Jiang Zuiyao swallowed the orange in her mouth and replied, "It's just a little gossip."
When he thought about Li Dan who had just left, something suddenly rang out from Jiang Zuiyao, and asked, "By the way, why didn't I see Li Yan serving him when I come back this time?"
Xiyun replied: "When the master came back that day, Li Yan was there, but he didn't serve him in close proximity. After that, the young master sent Li Yan away. I don't know why."
I think Shao Ziqing knew that Li Yan was sent by Shaojiang, so it would be fine, and Jiang Zuiyao was not easy to deal with, so Shao Ziqing would be able to come forward.
At this time, Xiyun happened to remember something and reported: "I just sent someone from the North Courtyard to deliver a box of donkey-hide gelatin, saying that Wang saw that his master looked bad last night, so he specially used it to repair your body."
When Jiang Zuiyao mentioned this Wang family, his face turned ugly and said, "I understand, please put it in the warehouse."
Linghui swept the carbon ash next to the charcoal basin and said unhappily: "If you have nothing to do, you will be either traitor or steal. The young lady is still guarding against that Wang family. I think she is not a good person."
Even Linghui could see that, Jiang Zuiyao naturally knew what she knew. She didn't want to mention that Wang anymore, but she thought of Shaoheng by the way, and asked, "Xiyun, how about that Wang's treat Shaoheng?"
Xiyun thought for a while and replied, "I heard that Wang treated Shaoheng very meticulously. Everyone in the mansion knew it. Therefore, it is said that Wang was unforgiving, but his heart was not bad. But I don't know whether it was good or not. I don't care about other courtyards."
Jiang Zuiyao put her feet into the quilt and said, "When I am better, I will always go and see the child of Shaoheng, after all, her mother..."
At this point, Jiang Zuiyao stopped talking. Although Feng's death deserves the crime, Jiang Zuiyao also interfered in the matter back then. Shaoheng lost his mother at a young age, which was pitiful.
