Chapter 1471: Mama Gui (2)
In the afternoon, the eldest princess happened to be a little tired, and in the afternoon, she asked Yi An to practice etiquette in the house by herself. Hearing that Mama Gui was coming, she went to the eldest princess and said that she wanted to go home.
The eldest princess was a little surprised: "Mama Gui has come to Beijing?" ”
She knew that the Wu family sent someone to Hebei to find Mama Gui, but she felt that the Wu family must have made a trip in vain. Back then, she was reluctant to stay in Beijing when she warmly retained the other party, so how could she be willing to come back now.
Yi An snorted and said, "My third sister-in-law sent a letter, there shouldn't be a mistake." ”
"If she wants to stay with you, she will be a great help to you. But people with ability have tempers, and if you don't have enough courage to convince her, she won't enter the palace with you. ”
After all, Mama Gui asked to leave the palace by herself, which showed that she was tired of life in the palace. Therefore, it is not so easy for Yi An to persuade her.
On the way back, Yi An asked Chunlan: "How did Mother Tang convince Mama Gui?" ”
"Girl, Mama Gui's willingness to come to Beijing has nothing to do with Mother Tang, this is all the good cause planted by the old lady and Mrs. back then."
After explaining the reason, Chunlan said: "As soon as Mama Gui heard that it was our government that invited her, she agreed to come to Beijing after confirming the identity of Mother Tang." She's here to repay the favor. ”
Yi An said with a smile: "Sure enough, there is a good reward." ”
Qingshu was also waiting for Yi An to come back because she was not at ease, and when she saw her, she reminded: "Mama Gui looks a little serious, you are not allowed to be suspicious!" ”
Yi An laughed: "I'm not a fool. She is a person praised by the eldest princess, she is just the same temperament as Mama Ji, and I can bear it. ”
She has always respected people who are really capable, even if she has a weird temper.
It's just that to the surprise of both of them, Mama Gui only made one request when she saw Yi An, that is, to go to the princess's mansion with her. As for the rest, nothing was said.
Yi An naturally responded and said, "Okay, you can go to the Eldest Princess's Mansion with me later." ”
Mama Gui showed the standard smile on her face: "Then I'll go and explain the two children first, and send someone to call me again when the girl leaves." ”
Yi An looked at Qing Shu and said, "I see that she is quite kind, unlike Mama Ji who always has a dead face, she shouldn't be difficult to get along with." ”
Yu Xi lowered her voice and said, "I have already sent someone to the hot spring Zhuangzi to verify with my grandmother and mother what she said. If what she says is right, it's basically credible. ”
Yi An snorted and said, "Don't investigate this matter again after it's confirmed." ”
Yu Xi hesitated a little and said, "In case she secretly took refuge with someone before, but we didn't find out, it would be too dangerous for you to enter the palace." ”
"There is no suspicion in employing people, and there is no need to suspect people."
Qing Shu thought for a while and said, "Yi'an, although Mama Gui is Xiao Yu is very credible to me, the necessary review is still necessary. ”
"My mother has checked it before, no problem."
Qingshu said: "After all, it is a matter in the palace, and the godmother may not have investigated thoroughly enough." I mean, please ask the emperor to help check this matter, if it's okay, then we can use her with confidence. ”
"Looking for the Emperor's help?"
Qingshu smiled and said, "Yes, the fastest and safest way to ask the emperor for help." Or do you have the right person in mind? ”
"Okay, then ask him for help, you let Fu Jingene tell him about this."
After talking about Mama Gui, Yi An said: "Xiao Yu is going to the Guan family tomorrow to move the dowry to Osmanthus Lane. I mean that these dowries will be placed in the Hou Mansion first, and they will move when they return to Beijing later, but unfortunately this guy doesn't listen to me. ”
The main reason is that Feng Xiaoyu's dowry is very generous, and there are a lot of good things. It's too eye-catching to move there now, and when she takes her children to Changzhou, it will be easy to attract thieves.
Qing Shu understood Xiao Yu's behavior very well, and said: "Even if it is placed in the Guan family, there is also Jiang Qianwen's big mouse!" As for the fear of attracting thieves, when the time comes, they will hide valuable antique calligraphy and paintings and jewelry in the secret room, and ordinary thieves will not be able to steal them. ”
"Are you sure they have a secret room in that house?"
Qing Shu said with a smile: "What's the matter, won't you get one?" She'll definitely keep some people to guard the house. The little thieves don't dare to go in and steal, and the big thieves dare to go to the government and won't let them go. ”
"The main thing is that she has too many good things, and some things are even exciting to the powerful."
Gold and silver are nothing, and those cherished calligraphy, paintings and antiques will make many people crazy.
Qing Shu shook his head and said: "From the perspective of safety, things are naturally the safest in the Hou Mansion, but Xiao Yu is tired of the people of the Guan family and does not want to have anything to do with them anymore." ”
Yi An snorted and said: "Osmanthus Lane is too far away from here, and if you want to see each other in the future, you will have to go around half of the capital." ”
"It's so exaggerated, it's only about three or four quarters of an hour by carriage."
Yi An shook his head and said, "Don't talk about this, anyway, she will live in the princess's mansion before she goes to Changzhou." As for the rest, more on that later. ”
Seeing that it was not early, Qingshu went home.
That night, Qingshu told Fu Jingene about Mama Gui: "We can't interfere in the affairs of the palace, so we can only ask the emperor." ”
Fu Jingene said with a smile: "If the emperor knows, he will definitely be very happy." ”
Qingshu was a little puzzled.
Fu Jingene whispered: "Since Miss Wu went to the eldest princess's mansion to learn etiquette, the emperor wrote a letter to her every two or three days. It's a pity that Miss Wu is very tough and hasn't replied to a single one. ”
"Well deserved."
Fu Jingene also gloated secretly: "I thought that it was not easy for the emperor to win Miss Wu's heart. But this time she took the initiative to ask the emperor for help, which can be seen to have softened. ”
"No, I proposed it. Although the godmother found someone to check the details of Mama Gui before, Huanxi and I were afraid that there would be omissions, so I wanted to investigate it thoroughly. ”
After all, she is a close person, and for the sake of safety, you still need to know her bottom thoroughly to rest assured.
Fu Jingene laughed: "I'll just say why Miss Wu suddenly changed her mind, it turns out that the problem is you!" But I will still tell the emperor tomorrow that this is what Miss Wu meant, otherwise you will be annoyed in the future. ”
"What's annoying?"
Fu Jingene pursed his lips and smiled: "For example, if he makes Miss Wu unhappy or the two quarrel, he will let you enter the palace to help mediate." ”
"Won't it?"
Fu Jingene uncovered the emperor's bottom and said: "There are some things that I am not embarrassed to tell you, the emperor has asked me more than once how can I please Miss Wu?" I don't know Miss Wu well, how do I know what she likes! Every time he asked me, I said that I had to be sincere to impress Miss Wu. ”
He is not wrong in saying this, a resolute person like Wu Yi'an will not be confused by rhetoric, and she will only believe it if she takes practical actions.
Qingshu was very satisfied with his answer: "Yes, you will answer him like this when you ask him in the future." ”
