Chapter 775 Congratulations (1st update)
By the time the congratulatory gifts sent by Su Rong were delivered to the capital of Daliang, Duanhua had already learned the rules, walked, sat and lay down, which made Qingping very satisfied. She repeatedly lamented that her daughter seemed to be completely different inside and out as she became the quasi-princess.
During this period, Duanhua never went to the East Palace to disturb Yan Huisheng once, even on her day off.
In the blink of an eye, more than two months have passed.
On this day, the housekeeper sent someone to report in a hurry, saying that the Queen Mother of Nanchu sent someone to send a large cart of congratulatory gifts, and asked the princess to collect them in person.
Duan Hua stood up vigorously, held up the hem of her skirt and rushed out. For a moment, she completely forgot all the boudoir etiquette she had learned recently.
Qingping was also surprised, but he laughed and cursed, "This kid, as soon as he heard Su Rong's name, his true colors appeared."
As she spoke, she also ordered her maid to help her and follow her out.
At this time, the housekeeper was talking enthusiastically to the visitor. When he saw the princess rushing out, he said "ouch" in his heart. He hadn't seen the princess run so fast in more than two months. He quickly said: "Princess, you Slow down, I can't run away, I'm keeping an eye on you."
Duan Hua panted and stopped, looking at the person coming, "It's Su Rong... no, is it the concubine who is here to deliver something to me?"
"Back to the princess, yes, these things are congratulatory gifts from the princess and a letter." The visitor took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Duan Hua. At the same time, there was also a gift list and he handed it to Duan Hua. He asked her, "These things were all chosen for you by the concubine herself from the king's private treasury."
Duan Hua was about to open the letter, but after hearing this, he read the gift list first. After a moment, he opened his eyes wide and exclaimed, "Are you giving all these good things to me?"
“Yes, it’s all for you.” The person replied.
Duan Hua's eyes suddenly turned red, "Wow, Su Rong is so kind to me."
"Princess, please don't get too excited. It's better to collect your things quickly so that the people sent by the princess can rest." The housekeeper said quickly to the side.
Duan Hua nodded and handed the gift list to the butler, "You can check it out and put it in the warehouse first. I will take a look at it later."
The steward should be.
Duanhua held the letter in his hand and said to the visitor: "Thank you for your hard work. Please stay at the princess's residence and rest for two days before leaving."
The visitor shook his head and said, "We will settle down at Yingkefang. The caravan will stay in the capital for four or five days. After the princess has read the letter, if she is looking for us, just go to Yingkefang."
Duan Hua was a little confused, "That guest house, is it really Su Rong's?"
The visitor nodded, "Yes, our master is the seventh young lady of Jiangning County."
Duanhua muttered, "That's not Su Rong."
She became happy and said, "I've been to the guest house many times. Okay, I'll go to the guest house to look for you after reading the letter."
After she finished speaking, she took the letter and turned back.
Qingping met her face to face, "Why are you back?"
Duan Hua held the thick letter and said, "Mom, I will go back to the house to read the letter first. I have left the things to the housekeeper to count. If you are not busy, go and take a look at them for me."
Qingping nodded and agreed.
Qingping looked at the large cart of things. Before she could say anything, the housekeeper handed her the gift list to look at, "These are congratulatory gifts sent by the princess to the princess by her own caravan."
Qingping took it and was shocked after reading it, "Why are so many good things brought here? She doesn't even keep them for herself? This child." After finishing speaking, she handed the gift list back to the housekeeper, "Let someone Be careful not to damage them. Several of them are priceless treasures."
The housekeeper of the Princess Mansion is naturally knowledgeable and nodded repeatedly. Although he had already given instructions to his servants several times, he was told by the princess that he gave them two more instructions.
Qing Ping called people aside to talk, "Are you the concubine's caravan? Are you from Nanchu?"
“Back to the princess, yes.”
“When will you leave again?”
“About four or five days.”
Qingping nodded, "What's the situation in Nanchu now? How has the lady always been?"
The visitors answered one by one, "Nanchu is currently arranging spring planting matters. Before we left, the concubine fell ill once due to the late spring cold. She was ill for seven or eight days before she recovered."
Qingping said "ouch", "Thanks to her for the hard work."
She sighed, "Who would have thought that Wei's wolfish ambition would be directed at Nanchu, but in any case, it's good that everyone is safe."
She asked the visitor some more questions, and they all answered truthfully. Seeing that Qingping had finished asking the questions, he said to the visitor: "You can rest at the Princess Mansion. There is no need to go to the Guest House. There is plenty of room for you in the Princess Mansion." live."
The visitor shook his head and said, "Don't dare to disturb the princess. We come in and out every day, which is really troublesome. If the princess and the princess have a reply, please go to the guest reception hall to find us before we leave."
Qingping nodded, "That's fine!"
Seeing that the housekeeper was still doing the counting, she personally invited people into the room to have a sip of tea and some snacks before leaving. This time, the person who came did not brush her off and followed her.
More than half an hour later, the housekeeper finished counting, and the caravan members said goodbye and left the Princess's Mansion. Each person carried two boxes of snacks made in the Princess's Mansion's kitchen. Everyone had a smile on their face, because everyone knew that the Princess' Mansion's Dim sum is my master's favorite food. Once, just to eat other people's dim sum, my mistress and Mr. Feng stayed in the princess's mansion for several days.
Duan Hua read Su Rong's letter back and forth three times, then held the letter and went to the warehouse.
The housekeeper is directing people to go inside carefully. After everyone has finished moving, he accompanies the princess to look at these things one by one. There was a dagger among them. The housekeeper said to the princess in confusion: "There is also a dagger here. It's really strange. Did the princess give it to the princess for self-defense?"
Duanhua suddenly smiled and said, "No, she forwarded it to me to the prince's cousin."
The housekeeper suddenly said, "No wonder."
She just said that if her princess married to the East Palace, why would she need to carry a dagger with her to defend herself? Are you guarding against the prince?
Duan Hua touched this and that, unable to put it down, and finally picked up the brocade box containing the pair of mandarin ducks and jade pendants, "She also specially selected this pair and gave them to me and the prince's cousin, saying that we were destined to have a good match. Wish us happiness and happiness.”
The housekeeper nodded repeatedly, "The prince and the princess are naturally a match sent from heaven. It is a great marriage. They will definitely be happy and happy."
Duanhua nodded happily, "I'll take these pair of jade pendants, tie them with a pair of loops, and then send them to the East Palace with the dagger to the prince's cousin. I haven't seen him for a long time."
The housekeeper immediately smiled and said hello, "Although His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has not come to visit, he sends you toys and food every now and then. It is because he is thinking of the princess. After all, His Highness is too busy to see you all the time."
"Well, yes, so, if nothing happens, I won't bother him, but now it's nothing." Duan Hua held the brocade box with his own hands.
The housekeeper nodded, smiled and helped her get the brocade box containing the dagger, and left the warehouse.
