Chapter 321 Misfortune (2)
When he arrived at the main hall, he really saw that Hongying and his aunt had already been waiting. Hongying saluted Xiao Shao with the help of his maid, with a kind smile on his face: "I have seen the prince. The lady is not in the mansion now. I am helping with the internal affairs. I hope the prince will not dislike me for being abrupt."
Xiao Shao said lightly, and sat down on the seat prepared for him. Butler Lin stood aside, and before Xiao Shao could speak, he smiled and said, "The fifth aunt is not polite. Since he is the young lady's family, it is not an exaggeration. The master does not have so many rules, just be at will."
Butler Lin smiled kindly, and he was not very kind in every word he said. He said there was no rules, but in fact he was more pronounced than anything else. The aunt stood aside and said nothing, but the maids around him saw that something was wrong. The master and servant of the Jinying Palace were not kind, so he came to support the eldest lady in a special way, so he immediately lowered his head deeper, just thinking that he didn't attract attention.
The smile on Hongying's face froze. He was born in the market and had to be good at dealing with others. However, in just a moment, he regained a kind and natural smile: "That would be great. The eldest lady is the legitimate daughter of our mansion, and the master felt very distressed. Now seeing the prince loves the eldest lady so much, the master is very happy to know."
Xiao Shao did not answer, but Mr. Lin said, "Madam is so polite. Since the Empress Dowager issued an imperial edict, the Young Lady is the heroine in our mansion and must be loved by the Master. Today, in addition to talking about this, the Master also ordered the old slave to deliver the betrothal gift list. After the Young Lady passed the door, the betrothal gift was delivered to the Young Lady with the dowry. The Empress Dowager also saw this." After that, he took out a gold silk-print gift list from his sleeve and handed it to Hongying.
Hongying was happy when she heard Butler Lin's words at first, and her face turned blue again when she heard the second half of the sentence. When she opened the betrothal gift list, her face turned red and red, which was extremely exciting. After a while, she closed the gift list, took a deep breath, and forced a smile: "The prince really loves the eldest lady. This gift list is rich. Seeing this, I am sincerely happy for the eldest lady."
As she said this, her subordinates almost smashed the gift list. In fact, Hongying was born in a brothel. Where is the brothel? It was a gold-selling cave. She had never seen any prodigal son. Hongying had spent a lot of money on Hongyan. Therefore, she treated gold, silver, jewelry and other external things like her second aunt. But now she saw the betrothal gift list given by the Jinying Palace, she couldn't help but take a breath.
Distinctive treasures, rare beasts, houses and shops, gold and silver notes. Countless wealth and endless jewelry, just a small betrothal gift list, can make people see the tip of the iceberg that is splashed with wealth in the Jinying Mansion. Even Hongying is quite knowledgeable, and at this moment, she can't help but be shocked by this wealth and honor, and she secretly hated Jiang Ruan in her heart.
More importantly, this hot wealthy man flew away before he got it. Xiao Shao said it very clearly that this betrothal gift was taught to Jiang Ruan, and Empress Dowager Yide also knew it. That means that she didn't even have the chance to intervene. She originally wanted to make some advantage from Jiang Ruan's betrothal gift, but now she has to watch this wealthy mansion slip away. You must know that this betrothal gift alone is worth several Shangshu's mansions. How can she be willing to do this?
The more unwilling he was in his heart, the more Hongying made up his mind to send Jiang Susu to the Jinying Mansion. Jiang Ruan was not easy to master, but Jiang Susu could tell who was in charge of the Jiang Mansion. If he had grasped Jiang Susu and when Jiang Susu entered the Jinying Mansion, wouldn’t this wealth flow into the Shangshu Mansion continuously? By then, wouldn’t the life of Shangshu Mansion be more and more prosperous?
Hongying made up her mind and smiled a little more eagerly. Butler Lin frowned and looked at the somewhat deformed gift list that was clenched by Hongying, and said, "Be careful, this gift list is only one except the place where the Empress Dowager is. If it is damaged, it will be very troublesome."
"It was because I was accidentally." Hongying smiled awkwardly. Butler Lin said again: "I don't know where the young lady is, so I think she is coming out to meet the prince."
Hongying smiled slightly: "The eldest lady is going to come out, but her daughter's house is always shy, and she is afraid she is dressing up now. I have sent someone to inform you just now. The eldest lady will go to the tea hall in the garden later. Linlang, you take the prince over first. You young people always have something to say, and the Queen Mother gave her a marriage, so it's better to get familiar with her earlier." She said this smart and generously.
It is completely different from those pedantic families. However, Xiao Shao's expression was still looking at her indifferently.
Facing such a expressionless person, you are always weak. Butler Lin seemed to be talking for Xiao Shao today, and immediately laughed again, saying, "That's the best, please lead the way." Now King Jinying's mansion regards Xiao Shao's marriage as a top priority. His master's ability to pursue his wife is not enough, so he naturally has to do his best to his subordinates. Butler Lin always wants to give Xiao Shao and Jiang Ruan the opportunity to be alone at all times. Hongying is so tactful, butler Lin is very satisfied.
"Butler Lin has misunderstood," Hongying covered her lips and smiled: "I still have some wedding matters to discuss with Butler Lin. Seeing that the prince also handed over the marriage to Butler Lin, I want to discuss with Butler Lin. If Butler Lin doesn't dislike it, please stay here and talk to me." She looked at Xiao Shao and said with a smile: "As for the eldest lady and the prince, it is more convenient for the two of them to talk."
If it weren't for knowing that everyone in Jiang's mansion was a talented man, Mr. Lin would almost praise him as a well-educated and well-educated beauty. It would be the best for these two people to be alone. When Mr. Lin was young, he followed the old King Jinying and learned a playful and unruly temperament, and he didn't take secular legislation seriously at all. Therefore, the defenses of men and women in that aristocratic family were all over the place, not to mention that the imperial decree of Queen Mother Yide has been issued, and Jiang Ruan is the young lady. What can you avoid when you talk to the young lady and the young master? Men and women stay together just need to be alone. If you stay alone a few more times, you can spark it, and maybe you can get pregnant.
"That's not bad, master, look——" Butler Lin looked at Xiao Shao inquired, his eyes full of expectations.
Xiao Shao also lived up to Butler Lin's expectations and nodded lightly: "Okay."
Hongying smiled more sincerely: "Linlang, why don't you take the prince over here quickly."
Linlang walked over as he spoke and said to Xiao Shaofu: "Prince, please come with me."
