Chapter XVIII Purchase of Dowry


Deep in the courtyard, there is always a dispute between a group of women.

The Third Master's Mansion is always dark and turbulent, with waves rising everywhere.

"When you met your master, you didn't say anything you shouldn't have said."

San Fujin was in his room, playing with flowers and plants, pruning branches and leaves.

"We are all talking about interesting things in life."

Abier said.

"The interesting thing seems to be so interesting that I was so drunk that I asked the third master to pick you up personally the next day."

San Fujin was obviously jealous, but he still pretended to be calm, but the "clicking" sound of the pruning branches But it's obviously very heavy.

"It's my fault, please punish me by Fujin."

Abi'er said aggrievedly, but she didn't dare to shed a tear and could only grit her teeth and endure it.

"Forget it, since the third master didn't say anything, I won't punish him."

San Fujin looked polite.

Abi'er thought it was just a false alarm, but unexpectedly she suddenly said: "This pot of flowers is a bit difficult to take care of.

Why don't you bother me?"

Sister, help me take care of it, and I’ll send someone to pick it up in a few days.”

"Yes."

After Abi'er said this, the maid next to her stepped forward and took it.

San Fujin glanced at him, as if this was no longer a simple task of growing flowers.

"Amma."

Xiao Zheng called to Master Jiu who was walking around in the yard not knowing what he was worried about.

"Back."

Master Jiu suddenly became very happy.

"Amma, let's take sister to visit our new house."

Xiao Zheng raised his head and said happily.

"Yes."

Master Jiu thought for a moment and knelt down and said, "Xiao Zheng, go find your mother."

"But, I haven't taken my sister to see our big house yet," Xiao Zheng said with some reluctance.

"It's okay, Amma will take your sister."

Master Jiu coaxed Hongzheng.

"Okay."

Then he turned to me and said, "Sister, squat down."

I was curious as to what such a young child could say secretly.

I saw Xiao Zheng secretly say something to me, and I laughed.

Master Jiu felt a little baffled, but it was not easy to ask.

"My son, please leave."

Xiao Zheng walked out.

Master Jiu nodded, and after seeing Xiao Zheng leaving, he said, "Let's go, I'll take you for a walk."

I nodded and followed Master Jiu.

When I came to a house, there was a dazzling array of things inside, including agates and emeralds, gold and silver jewelry, calligraphy, painting and ink, and things of various shapes.

"Wow, are you taking the initiative to bring me to your home's small vault?

Last time I came here secretly, and I didn't even look carefully."

I looked around, and I had never seen such a dazzling "money pile." ”: “It’s really money-losing.”

"I have made a lot of money over the years.

Whatever you like, I can give it to you."

Master Jiu said generously, as if he was like a hero who had done something great.

"No need, no merit, no reward, I just want to feast my eyes on it."

Although I said this, I actually didn't stop to look.

If he didn't like me, I would definitely take it.

Anyway, if you are so rich and people are asking like this, it’s hard to say no.

I looked at so many things, but I didn’t look at gold or silverware very much.

There was a pair of white jade fish that were pretty good.

I kept staring at them, but their eyes were red, making them more vivid.

"This is the Double Flying Fish of the Southern Dynasty.

It is said to be a token of love between the couple who heads the Flying Fish Sect.

The red eyes are the blood left before their death and are the witness of their love."

Master Jiu said, and I also held it.

Flying Fish looked on.

"If you like it, I'll give it to you."

I took one look and put it back: "No, just take a look."

I continued walking, but it was such a pity.

I really liked it, but my pride was causing trouble and I still couldn't take it.

Hey, why is that flower scroll hanging alone on such a purple sandalwood?

The flowers on it are all carved from white jade, which is very valuable at least: why is this painting alone hanging on it?

Because the other paintings are all placed in a large vat.

As I was thinking about it, I started to do it, and the flower roll slowly fell down.

It looked familiar to me, but I didn't know who it was.

"This is for you.

I heard from Eighteenth Brother that you like flutes, so I specially picked it for you."

Master Jiu handed over a white jade flute with a line of words engraved on it, but I didn't have time to read it because Ten Master Ba, the person I used to be so familiar with, has now left.

Although I already knew his ending, I can't help but feel sad.

I shed tears unknowingly, and slowly took it with my hand.

I remembered the smile that Master Shiba had put in connecting me with Master Thirteen before, and the beautiful scene of him and me together.

A child of only eight years old, now...

Has passed away.

Well, Master Jiu stretched out his hand and wiped away the tears on my face.

I was stunned for a moment.

However, I am always wise and quickly wiped away my tears.

"Eighteenth brother's death was God's will.

It's been so long, so don't be so sad."

Master Jiu seemed to feel sorry for me, who was crying.

Such an act of emphasizing love and justice might not be a good thing for me.

"Yes, the ending is predetermined, I can only accept it."

I said it because I knew part of history, and Master Jiu probably thought that what I said was God's will.

"How about my paintings?

Are they beautiful?"

Master Jiu saw that I mentioned that Master 18 was so depressed, so he started to change the topic.

"This woman looks familiar, who is she?"

I raised my head and asked.

"Can't you see?"

Master Jiu was surprised, as if I should know him.

I shook my head and looked at it innocently.

"This is you."

Master Jiu made a stroke between the painting and me.

I looked at the painting carefully.

Maybe it was because I was used to seeing photos, but now I couldn’t recognize such a similar portrait.

"It's not the same, it's just a few points at most."

I took the flute and walked outside.

Master Jiu stared at the painting for a long time: It looks very similar.

I returned to the room and stared at the flute for a while: I was so sad about the death of the Eighteenth Master, and the Concubine must be even more sad.

It's time to visit the secret concubine.

I put the flute in the box, and then walked slowly to the bed.

How could I sleep?

I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep tonight, just because there is something worth being sad about.

The next morning, I came to Concubine Mi's palace alone, and saw Concubine Mi sitting in the courtyard playing the harp.

The sound of the harp was a bit resentful.

I didn't go in immediately.

I just stood at the entrance of the courtyard and listened quietly: Maybe, The sadness of loss can never disappear from a mother.

As soon as the sound of the piano fell, I walked in slowly, and Mi Fei also stood up and walked over slowly.

"Secret Concubine."

I saluted and stood up slowly.

The secret concubine simply smiled and said, "Princess, long time no see."

"Long time no see."

We haven't seen each other for more than half a year.

Concubine Mi has become a lot more elegant, and her face is a little haggard.

The death of the Eighteenth Master is really a huge blow to such a deep palace woman.

Her husband's love, There will always be times of loss, but only the love of a son can never be lost.

"Sit inside."

Concubine Mi.

"Yeah."

I responded and walked in.

After sitting down, the maids served a cup of tea.

I picked it up and took a sip: it was so bitter.

I frowned but didn't spit it out.

"I'm sorry, I usually drink this tea.

I'll ask my servant to change it for you."

Concubine Mi said, getting ready to call someone.

"No, bitter tea tastes like bitter tea."

I put down the cup.

"You have lost a lot of weight these days.

There are some things that you should let go of.

You have to let them go eventually and cherish the time in front of you."

I said softly, fearing that what I said was inappropriate and would make my concubine unhappy.

Concubine Mi naturally understood what I meant and smiled slightly: "What should be let go will eventually be let go.

Now, all I can do is to protect my sixteenth brother."

Fortunately, Concubine Mi still has her sixteenth brother.

Otherwise, I really don’t know if Concubine Mi could survive.

I don't know much about the minutiae of history.

I only know about big things.

I also smiled, knowing that the secret concubine was not as fragile as I thought, and I was very happy.

I didn't chat with Concubine Mi for a long time.

I went there this time just to see how Concubine Mi was doing.

Now I felt relieved, so I took a short rest and came back.

Maybe, I shouldn’t see Concubine Mi again.

The bond between me and her is the Eighteenth Master.

Concubine Mi should be even more sad when she sees me.

Besides, I'm just a passer-by in her life.

I was walking alone on the road and thought about these words several times.

"Why are you looking so sad again?"

These words came from the front.

I looked up happily, thinking it was the Fourth Master, but it turned out to be the Fourteenth Master.

The smile on my face fell back.

"Fourteenth Master."

I bowed slightly.

"Why did you take back your smile when you saw me?

Did I offend you?"

Master Fourteen walked up and said.

"Why are you alone?

Aren't you brothers often in groups?"

I glanced at him.

"I'm going to visit E Niang.

Do we have to go in groups?"

The Fourteenth Master said next to me: "Hey, who did you think you just saw?"

"No one."

Suddenly he thought, since he came to pay his respects to Concubine De, would the Fourth Master also come over?

"By the way, did the Fourth Master come over too?"

"I'm afraid Fourth Brother has already left the palace gate by now."

The Fourteenth Master dusted off the dust on his chest.

"My mansion has also been built, do you want to go and take a look."

The Fourteenth Master strolled and said cautiously.

"Yours should be about the same as Master Jiu's, so I won't go."

I said to Master Fourteenth without even thinking about it.

The Fourteenth Master came and said: "Brother Ninth's house is much better than ours, why don't we go and have a sit down sometime."

I didn't want to go at first, but I thought it was just a courtesy, so I said politely: "Okay, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

"Yeah."

Master Fourteen nodded.

"I asked the kitchen to make these freshly made.

You can see they are still warm."

Master Shi lay in front of the table, staring at the pile of freshly made pastries, and glanced at Xiaoyuer, who was struggling to swallow his saliva.

"Xiao Yu'er, you really don't want to eat it?"

"No, I want to go back to the inn."

Xiao Yu'er stared at the cakes, swallowed his saliva, and said it with difficulty.

Master Shi ignored him, picked up the pastry and stuffed it into his mouth: "Hey, you said you went back, what to do with these pastries?

The house makes so many delicious ones every day, is it possible to throw them away?

"Master Shi said pretending to be sorry, glancing at Xiao Yu'er from time to time.

"That's not easy.

Pack it up and send it to my place."

Hearing such a vague voice, Master Shi turned his head and saw that Xiao Yu'er was already eating.

Master Shi lay on the table and looked at Xiao Yu'er for a while.

Xiao Yu'er ignored Master Ten at all.

He couldn't finish the delicious food, so he didn't care about Master Ten.

"Xiao Yu'er, why don't you like to be with me?

Do you think I'm too stupid?"

Master Shi said with some disappointment.

"Of course not," Xiao Yu'er put down the cake in his hand and said seriously: "You are a dignified elder brother, and I am just a commoner.

I just feel that my status is too low and I shouldn't always follow you.

Stay together."

"There is no status grudge against being friends, unless you dislike me."

Master Shi said with a pout.

"Hey, why do you talk like the second sister?"

Xiao Yu'er looked at him curiously.

Master Ten: "Second Sister" "Oh, no, it's Princess Shu Qiao."

Xiao Yu'er smiled guiltily.

"This is also what I like about being friends with Shu Qiao."

Master Shi said happily: "Then, are you willing to be friends with me?"

"There is something to eat."

Xiao Yu'er picked up the cake.

"Yes."

Master Shi nodded happily.

"Come."

Master Shi took some cakes and fed them to Xiaoyu'er.

Xiao Yu'er ate it in one bite: "Then why do you like to play with me?"

"I'll tell you later."

Master Shi said happily.

We took some pastries and ate them together.

I hadn’t seen the fourth master for a long time, and thinking that Abier’s things should be ready, I took a carriage and came to the fourth master’s house.

As soon as I got off the carriage, I saw a team passing by, all tied with red cloth strips.

Maybe it was the dowry I gave to Abier.

I walked over and asked Stoudemire at the door: "Where is this team going?"

"Reporting to the princess, this is sent to the third master's house."

Xiao Si answered respectfully.

"At Third Master's house."

That should be what I asked Fourth Master to do.

I immediately drove to the door of the third master's house.

I held the dowry I had brought specially.

It contained all the things that the prince and other empresses had given me.

Although I also liked it very much, none of them were as beautiful as Abier's. important.

I got off the carriage and said to the groom: "You wait first."

Then I came to the door of Sanye's house with my things in my arms.

Since it was my first time here, I naturally came to Sanye's house in formal attire, and I couldn't let Abier look down on her.

I saw the third master, San Fujin, and fourth master Abier walking in front.

I saluted and said, "The fourth master left so fast, maybe the third master didn't keep you for a meal."

I said jokingly.

The expressions on their faces were not good-looking, but the Fourth Master agreed with me in just a few seconds: "Third Brother, it seems that it is impossible not to let us eat."

"It's the princess's first visit, so she should be treated well."

Then he turned to Fujin and said, "Go and make arrangements for the family dinner at noon."

"Yes."

After Fujin left, I saw Abier smiling at Abier who was standing next to Third Master.

"Third Master, the princess and I are going to have a chat."

Abier said happily.

"Well, then I'll go with Fourth Brother to see the new Mo."

Third Master said with a slight smile.

When I came to Abi'er's house, I suddenly felt that it was so shabby: "Abi'er, why did the third master give you such a small house?"

I held my things and looked around the house.

"The scenery here is beautiful.

I told the third master myself that I wanted to live here."

Abier led me over and sat on a chair.

"By the way, this is your dowry, take a look."

I opened the box, took out a pair of earrings from it, and compared them in his ears: "This is the best jade pendant in my hand.

Look at it.

It’s too shabby to dress up.”

"Thank you, second sister."

Abi'er burst into tears.

"Thank you for what."

I wiped his tears with a handkerchief.

"Thank you for the dowry you bought for me.

I know you are giving me some face."

Abi'er wiped her tears.

"These are all what I should do.

By the way, you are Xi Fujin now, right?"

I inquired.

Abi'er hesitated for a while and said in a panic: "Yes."

"Why are you panicking?"

I could tell clearly.

Abier said hurriedly: "No way, second sister, you are dressed very beautifully today."

I stood up and turned around: "That's the first time as your mother-in-law, I didn't lose your face."

"The princess looks good in anything she wears.

This green outfit with white trim is really fresh and refined."

Abier praised.

"There are also beautiful fabrics in your trousseau.

Next time I see you, remember to wear it for me to see."

I held his hand and said, wanting to see Abier look beautiful wearing these fabrics quickly.

"Yeah."

Abi'er nodded
