Ever since hearing the news of Chu Yan's victory at the border, the smile on Su Yan's face has never faded away. Hearing that everyone in the mansion was praising Chu Yan, Su Yan felt quite honored in her heart.
After asking Ann from the old lady to go back to the room, Su Yan asked Liu Xiang to take out her money box. Looking at the few silver coins in the box, Su Yan thought about it and took all the large amount of silver notes from it. I took them all out and put them in my purse, sealed them and went to Zhong Ning's room.
At this time, Zhong Ning was crooked on the imperial concubine's couch, looking at a letter with a wide smile on his face, and seeing Su Yan push the door in, he subconsciously hid the letter behind him, with panic on his face.
Su Yan smiled and approached Zhong Ning: "Is it a letter from senior brother?"
"No." Zhong Ning denied without thinking.
Su Yan didn't believe it, raised her eyebrows immediately, sat down beside Zhong Ning with a smile and asked: "The senior brother didn't say in the letter when he will come?"
"No." Zhong Ning subconsciously denied, but she immediately noticed something was wrong, and shouted to Su Yan in embarrassment: "Senior Sister, you are bluffing me!" Seeing the teasing on Su Yan's face, Zhong Ning felt a little embarrassed She lowered her head: "Eldest brother said that he will be able to arrive in the capital in just over a month." As he spoke, the corners of Zhong Ning's mouth were raised all the time, and his almond eyes were shining brightly.
Su Yan smiled. From the day she met Zhong Ning, she knew that this girl liked the senior brother, and only when facing the senior brother, Zhong Ning would act like a normal woman.
Su Yan stopped teasing Zhong Ning, handed the purse she had prepared to Zhong Ning and said, "You take this silver ticket, and give porridge for ten days in the name of Baiweitang, saying it is to celebrate General Chu's victory in the battle , to welcome his class teacher back to court."
Zhong Ning took the purse, took out the banknotes inside and counted them. At that moment, her eyes widened and she was surprised: "So many? Do you still have any banknotes in hand, Senior Sister?"
Su Yan smiled indifferently: "If you have no money, you can still make money." But the opportunity to build momentum for him cannot be let go. Although the officials in the capital got the news that Chu Yan had captured the Seventh Prince of the enemy country alive, ordinary people didn't know about it. All they knew was probably that their country had won this time, and they only knew who led the troops to fight. And what Su Yan has to do is to let the common people know that this time it is Chu Yan who is brave and good at fighting to control the battlefield! Su Yan wants everyone in the world to know that Chu Yan is an admirable hero!
People's hearts can sometimes influence many things.
Just when Zhong Ning was still thinking that Su Yan took too much money, Yunzhui knocked on the door and came in, and said to Su Yan: "Girl, the people from Jinxiufang sent you some earrings for you to choose, and said It was what you ordered a few days ago."
Su Yan raised her eyebrows in surprise, she never called Jinxiu Fang to give her any earrings. But since Jinxiu Fang came, it means that the shopkeeper should be looking for her for something, Su Yan immediately went back to her room, and as soon as she entered the door, she happened to see the shopkeeper's wife, a lady surnamed Li holding a cover with a smile on her face. A tray covered with red cloth was waiting for him.
Mrs. Li smiled at Su Yan, bowed her knees and said, "My master specially chose this for Miss Su." Saying this, the little maid who followed Mrs. Li lifted the red cloth on it.
The moment the little maid lifted up the red cloth, Su Yan's footsteps froze immediately, her heart jumped violently, her eyes were tightly glued to the tray, her heart almost hung in her throat and never fell again. not go down.
I saw more than ten pairs of earrings of different styles quietly placed on the sandalwood tray, and among the earrings lay a hollowed-out cyan jade pendant, which broke into Su Yan's eyes.
Su Yan stepped forward quickly, took off the cyan jade pendant lying quietly on it with trembling hands, rubbed it on her hands, and couldn't believe her eyes in her heart! I can't believe I can see this jade pendant at this moment! This jade pendant is here, does that mean...
Su Yan raised her head in disbelief and looked at Mrs. Li, and Mrs. Li smiled and nodded to Su Yan.
With the affirmation of Mrs. Li, Su Yan's heart immediately jumped up, and she was crazily happy for this sudden news. She wanted to ask Mrs. Li a lot of questions, she wanted to know when he would come back, she wanted to know his Whether he was injured or whether he was fat or thin, she wanted to know so many things that she didn't know which one to ask first.
But at this time, Su Yan's throat seemed to be locked, and she clearly wanted to say a lot in her heart, but she couldn't say a word.
In the eyes of Mrs. Li, Su Yan was stunned by this news. In order to ease Su Yan's emotions, Mrs. Li smiled and said, "Is there any jewelry that Miss Su likes on this plate? If not, Miss Su can come to Jinxiu in person. Fang Xuanxuan."
"Indeed not." Su Yan's voice was trembling, but she forced herself to remain calm: "You go back first, I'll go and have a look later."
"yes."
Although Su Yan thought she was very calm, she didn't know that in the eyes of others, two lines of tears of joy ran down her cheeks.
Liu Xiang and Cai Xia have been waiting in the room, so they naturally see everything in their eyes, and now the two maids are even more excited than going to see their lover.
Liu Xiang searched back and forth in the closet, and then took out a lotus root pink dress and showed it to Su Yan: "Which one do you want to wear, girl? How about this pink one? This is new, and the girl hasn't worn it yet." Well, the girl has fair complexion, she must look good in this dress."
Cai Xia, who was combing Su Yan's hair, looked back at Liu Xiang, and said, "If you don't wear that one, red is the best to take advantage of our girl's figure. Wearing that big red one with a white cape will definitely look good."
Liu Xiang nodded to herself: "Alright, let's wear the red one, let's wear the one embroidered with peony flowers. Although it's a bit thin, it looks good-looking, and it shouldn't be cold if you wear a cloak."
Cai Xia and Liu Xiang were chattering about what clothes and jewelry Su Yan should wear, Su Yan didn't know, she stared at herself in the mirror blankly, but all she was thinking about was him.
It wasn't until Liu Xiang finished brushing Su Yan's hair and asked her which hairpin she wanted to wear, that she realized that after looking around in the dowry, she finally chose the Dongzhu hairstyle that Chu Yan had given her.
After Caixia put on makeup for Su Yan, Su Yan went to the mirror to see if there was anything wrong with her.
I saw the person in the mirror wearing a bright red gold silk double-breasted waist-length skirt, with a graceful peony tube top embroidered with gold silk, which well showed the gracefulness of a girl. A bright red skirt of the same color was as long as the floor, covering the pair of small lotus feet. Cai Xia took the bronzing cloak that had just been incensed and wrapped it around Su Yan's arms.
"Let's go." Su Yan's voice was as soft as before, but a little more brisk.
Lian Xiang quickly took out the cloak and put it on Su Yan.
In Jinxiu Workshop.
Chu Yan took a shower and changed into his usual black clothes, washing off the dust and dust all over his body.
"Miss Su, please." Lian Hao's voice suddenly came from outside, Chu Yan was suddenly very nervous, and quickly put down the teacup in his hand, stood up and looked towards the door.
At the door, the door slowly opened, and the person he had been thinking about day and night, wearing a red and gold silk double-breasted waist-length skirt, walked in with lotus steps.
She seemed to be a lot taller than half a year ago, and her figure was slimmer than before. Her face no longer had the childishness before, but instead had a touch of the unique coquettishness of a woman that he couldn't help but be crazy about.
The only thing that is exactly the same as half a year ago is that her peach blossom eyes are filled with deep affection.
Chu Yan couldn't help being crazy.
