Yuchen and Yuxi returned to the Guogong Mansion on the front foot, and the reward of Song Guifei on the back foot arrived. The gift to Yuchen was twice as much as that of Yuxi, and when he heard the number of gifts, he knew that Song Guifei was very satisfied with the third girl, and as for the fourth girl, she went to join in the fun.

What was awarded to Yuxi was two palace satins, a pair of jade auspicious clouds inlaid with gold beaded phoenix tail hairpins, a pair of royal blue dotted cuizhu hairpins, and a pair of palace fans and a pair of fragrant bead bracelets.

Yuxi looked at Zisu's ugly look and said with a smile: "The tenth prince has taken a fancy to the third sister, and the gift that the concubine gave to the third sister is thicker than mine, which is also human nature. Besides, the concubine's reward is not thin!" These few pieces of jewelry are worth a lot of money.

Zi Su was stunned for a moment and asked, "The girl has seen the Ten Princes?" I heard that the Ten Princes have inherited the appearance of the noble concubine Niangniang and are very outstanding. ”

Yuxi nodded slightly: "Hmm." In fact, the Nine Emperors are not bad, but the Nine Emperors are too imposing, and no one looks at him and thinks about it. ”

Zi Su hurriedly asked, "What is the impression of the noble concubine on the girl?" The Ten Princes will take a fancy to the third girl, but Zi Su is self-aware, and the Nine Emperors will definitely not look down on their own girls. It's not that he's arrogant, but what kind of beauty has he never seen like the Nine Emperor Princes. Besides, my own girl is still young, and she hasn't opened it!

Yuxi shook his head and said, "I don't know, the concubine didn't talk to me." But that's fine, the palace place, if you can, try not to go. There are too many rules in that place. "She can't kneel down at every turn, and she won't let you get up when she kneels on the ground, and her knees still hurt!

Shiso was a little regretful.

Two days later, Princess Qin Xin sent someone to pick up Yuchen into the palace. Zisu was very sorry for this, but Yuxi didn't care about it, and went into the study to read again.

Tired of reading in the study, Yuxi walked out. At this time, it was very hot, and only her second-class maid Caidie was standing alone in the verandah, and the others were all shrunk in the house. And the colorful butterfly standing in the veranda of the hand-copying hand looked like she was entangled to death.

Yuxi laughed, stepped forward, and asked, "What makes you so embarrassed?" Yuxi never embarrassed the maids below, although Zisu was a little strict with the maids below, as long as he didn't mess up, he wouldn't scold casually. Therefore, the maid who works as an errand by Yuxi's side is still living a very good life.

When Caidie saw Yuxi, her face turned white with fright, and she couldn't speak: "Aunt, girl, ......"

Yuxi looked at Caidie's appearance, combined with her appearance just now, where else did she not understand. He said, "Come to my study." "Caidie's tangled matter, I'm afraid it has something to do with her. Otherwise, I wouldn't be scared like that when I saw her.

Entering the study, Yuxi stood in the middle and asked, "Tell me, what is it that makes you so entangled." ”

It's all over this, don't hesitate any longer, Caidie said: "Girl, it's a matter of Sister Mai Dong's family." ”

Yuxi was a little puzzled: "What's wrong with the Mai Dong family?" Since the last time she warned her, there have been no more moths in the Mai Dong family.

Caidie made a lot of determination and said: "Mai Dong's grandmother was born two days ago, and Mai Dongniang took her sister-in-law to celebrate her birthday. My mother saw Mai Dongniang wearing gold earrings, gold rings, and a gold bracelet weighing four or five taels on her hand, and Mai Dong's sister-in-law wore a jade bracelet on her hand. "The things worn by the two women together amounted to more than two hundred taels of silver.

Yuxi asked calmly, "What's wrong?"

Jade's voice was very low: "Don't talk about Mai Dongniang's gold bracelet, my mother said that Mai Dong's sister-in-law's jade bracelet can be worth dozens of taels of silver." My mother said that Mai Dong's family has never been very wealthy, although there has been a lot of subsidy from Mai Dong's sister in the past two years, but Mai Dong's eldest brother and second brother have married two daughters-in-law one after another, and they will not have any savings. My mother felt that this was wrong and asked me to tell Miss Sù about it. ”

Yuxi asked, "What's wrong?"

Jade's head lowered even more: "My mother said that Father Mai Dong and the eldest brother and the second brother are loyal and honest people, and they don't do business, so it is impossible to drop such a large sum of silver out of thin air." I began to think that the girl gave it to Sister Mai Dong, so I asked Sister Shisu specifically. I found out that the girl hadn't appreciated Sister Mai Dong's gold bracelet and jade bracelet, so I felt that this was wrong. ”

When Mo Ju, Mo Taohai and Hong Shan around Yuxi got married, Yuxi gave them gold and silver jewelry, but it was for them to press the bottom of the box, which is a special case. No matter how generous Yuxi is on weekdays, it is impossible to be so generous that he can casually give a bounty bracelet and a jade bracelet worth dozens of taels to the maids around him. If you really do this, then it is not called generosity, it is called brainlessness.

Yuxi nodded and said, "I know, don't sue anyone else about this matter." Caidieniang estimated that the Mai Dong family's money for these jewelry was from an improper source, so she asked Caidie to sue her. In fact, Yuxi knew that there was a problem when he heard it.

Caidie's face was full of gratitude: "Thank you, girl." She had been hesitant to tell Miss Sù about it. Because once she said this, no matter whether there was a problem with the Mai Dong family or not, she would not be good. If there is a problem, Mai Dong will definitely be implicated, and the sisters who have a good relationship with Mai Dong will definitely have opinions about him. If she is excluded, her life in Taoranju will not be easy. Now the girl doesn't let her say it, which is tantamount to keeping it secret for her, no matter what the result of the investigation is, it has nothing to do with her.

Yuxi tapped lightly and said, "Sharpen the ink! ”

On weekdays, the errands of grinding ink are done by personal maids, so when Shisu brought a bowl of lotus seed soup, he was very surprised to see Caidie grinding ink.

Yuxi waved his hand and said to Caidie, "You go down!"

After Caidie went down, Shisu asked strangely, "Girl, why did you call Caidie to polish your ink?" ”

Yuxi said: "I just happened to want to practice calligraphy, and when I went out and saw her on the verandah, I called her in." What's wrong?

Shisu shook his head and said, "No, it's just a little strange." Speaking of which, Caidie's maid has been weird in the past two days, and she came to me last night and asked me if the girl had ever rewarded Mai Dong with a gold bracelet?

In addition to the four personal maids, Yuxi has not had much contact with the second-class maids below and the third-class maids, but the basic situation is to be understood: "I remember that her mother works in the pantry, and she has an older brother, who seems to have inconvenient legs?"

Zi Su smiled: "Her mother works in the pantry, but her mother is very good at being a person, and her popularity is very good." His brother has a bad leg and foot, and he still hasn't been involved with his relatives! Mai Dong has a good temperament, he is quick to do things, and his brain is also flexible, but he doesn't like to talk much. "The pantry is a clear water yamen, and there is no oil and water.

Yuxi didn't continue to talk about this topic, but picked up the lotus seed soup and ate it. After eating, I continued to practice calligraphy. Shiso didn't see the difference in her.

Yuxi is a very calm person, and it wasn't until dinner that Yuxi took Shisu to the main courtyard to find Qiu's family.

Qiu Shi saw Yuxi and said with a smile: "Why did you come here today?" Yuxi has not been free since he got those books from Han Jianye, and the number of times he comes to the main courtyard has decreased a lot.

Yuxi smiled and talked to Qiu's for a while, and then said to Zisu: "I have something to tell my aunt, you go and wait outside!"

Shisu was a little surprised, but she didn't ask much and retreated directly.

Yuxi is like this, where is there anything that the Qiu family doesn't understand, and let the other maids in the house go out, and then asked Yuxi: "What's wrong?" With such a file as the county lord of Heshou, the Qiu family is about to become a frightened bird.

Yuxi told Qiu's words: "I don't sound right, but it's not good to check it out with great fanfare." It's okay to find out the problem, but if you don't find the problem, it will always make the people around you feel uneasy. "The personal maid is not something that can be suspected casually, let alone checked with great fanfare, otherwise it will make people panic.

To do it quietly, Yiyuxi's current ability is not enough, so this matter can only be investigated by the Qiu family.

Qiu said: "Nine times out of ten, there is a problem with this matter, it just depends on the size of the problem. "Qiu is the housekeeper's wife, and she knows the doorway very well. If it is the steward of the outer courtyard or the steward of the inner courtyard, these people have more than two dollars on hand, especially in a place with abundant oil and water like the kitchen, then they have a lot of money. But Mai Dong's family, except for Mai Dong's errands, the others are average, where can they afford gold bracelets and jade bracelets.

Yuxi said: "Auntie, help me check it!"

Qiu Shi nodded and said, "No matter what you find, this Mai Dong can't stay any longer." "The personal maid's house is too messy and prone to accidents.

Yuxi smiled and said, "I'll talk about it when I find out the results." "If it had nothing to do with Mai Dong, she would definitely not have kicked Mai Dong out. But if it does...... I don't know how, Yuxi has a hunch that this matter may have nothing to do with Mai Dong.

After talking about Mai Dong, Qiu Shi talked about Yuchen again: "You went to the palace with Yuchen, why did Princess Qinxin invite Yuchen into the palace and didn't invite you?"

Yuxi said with a smile: "This is Yuchen and Qin Xin's fate, and they can't ask for it." ”

Qiu's was just a pity: "If you can also get Princess Qinxin to look at you differently, there will be more opportunities to show your face in the future, and there will be more room for family choice." ”

Yuxi smiled: "This kind of thing can't be forced." Moreover, the rules of the palace are big, and I am not very comfortable with them. I still like to be at home, relaxed and uninhibited.

Qiu Shi smiled: "Look at your little bit of interest, you know that you are guarding your own one-third of an acre." But speaking of which, I was able to live a happy life for two days when I was a girl at home. Once you get married, there are a lot of cumbersome things, and it is not as relaxed as before. ”

Yu Xile said happily: "It's too early to get married!"

Qiu's didn't think it was too early: "You'll be thirteen years old, and you won't be able to stay at home for a few years." ”
