Mu Rousang lowered her head, and started to think. From the second day of the first month, the Left Lady had been bringing her around everywhere. All this way, there were a lot of relatives in the Left Lady, and a lot of nieces from the other branches.
Even though she said, "Aunt is right. If it's like this, I'm afraid that big brother's marriage will be in front of my head."
"As long as the marriage is decided, everything will be fine. Any girl's dowry can be saved as long as they don't have children." Left Lady only thought that she was worried.
Mu Rousang thought back to when she was just five or six years old, and Mu Jinzhi had also said something like that.
"Thank you, Aunt. If Aunt were to speak of this matter, she would inevitably try to coax my brother to bring out some media gifts." Mu Rousang took her arm and acted like a spoiled child.
Left Lady became even more happy and said: "You must be very busy in the second month. You have to buy more clothes after getting your jewelry, so we don't need to work at all for our marriage."
However, Mu Rousang was muttering in his heart, didn't that mean the man's family got lucky, and after that, she recalled that the dowry had to be given to her future children, thus, his heart was twisted into a fried dough twist.
After she received Left Lady's promise, and after embroidered at home for a few days, Left Lady sent someone over to deliver a letter.
Spring Scene was playing with the parrot on the outside. Seeing that it was the little girl from Left Lady, she immediately asked what was the matter.
"Lady Chun Jing, my wife has sent me to inform my lady that the craftsman of the repair shop has been found. We can start the construction after the second day of the second month."
The little girl had a sweet mouth as Spring Scene grabbed a handful of copperplate and gave it to her, saying: "Miss is embroidering and isn't in a hurry. I'll go back to her later. This copperplate will go buy you some candy."
The little girl quickly stretched out her hand to thank him before skipping away.
That day, after lunch, Mu Rousang was drinking tea at the moment, but Spring Scene replied her by saying: "Wangfu-Tzu and the rest have received the news that they can't leave until the middle of February at the earliest, and that the shop is divided into two sides. I'm just that aunt said that I am a married woman and that I am not allowed to leave her house, so I'm afraid that she will not allow me to go and look at the shop myself.
Chun Lian listened at the side and said: "Miss, why don't you allow this servant to go with you. In the end, Xi Yan is still not as meticulous as this servant."
Mu Rousang put down the teacup in her hand, looked at the four of them, and saw that the Aunt Liu was also hesitating to speak. I have to wait until after the harvest before I have the chance to go out and walk around. "
Spring Scene pouted and said, "Sigh, this Beijing is really not as good as our little mountain village."
"That's right. They are all rules. This won't do, nor will it." Spring also followed suit, apparently unhappy about the rules and regulations.
However, the Aunt Liu suddenly said: "Don't think that you are being petty, I did not see it."
"Auntie, don't scare them, their rules aren't bad." Of course, this was not bad, when these girls were facing outsiders.
However, the Aunt Liu shook her head with a helpless smile, and said: "After this miss has left her house, all of you better watch out and don't let anyone grab onto her braids, bringing this miss trouble."
Mu Rousang facepalmed. Ever since Aunt Liu decided to follow her to the Yang Mansion, her ability to lecture grew.
Auntie, you don't have to be in such a hurry, they have to go to the shop tomorrow, I'm sure they won't be able to sit still for long, the rest of you have just arrived in the capital, but you didn't get the chance to go out and play. I went to ask Aunty for help, and told her to take a few people to see the shop, because they want to make an embroidery workshop.
However, Chun Yan was anxious and said, "My lady, how can that be? How can I leave you alone at home? "
Mu Rousang laughed: What are you worried about? "You guys go out and play for a day, do you think I'll be hungry in this house?"
"Ah, that's not it. It's just that you can't leave the lady alone." Chun Yan shook his head.
"You are getting impatient. Don't you have a second class girl? "I don't want to go out, just go, I'll steal a day off, tomorrow I'll go to my grandmother's room for a day."
After Mu Rousang finished speaking, she pointed to the embroidery rack. The golden edges of the big red wedding dress had already been embroidered, just that the flowery look on the clothes had not started yet.
Aunt Liu saw and said: "Young lady's skills have always been the best, just slowly embroider this." She had tacitly agreed to let them go for one day.
"It doesn't matter if aunty wants to meet her old friend in the capital. I'll just send someone back with a letter." Mu Rousang knew that she probably wanted to visit someone.
The four young girls were chattering nonstop, trying to guess whether or not the capital had the same good looks as the Shu City or the Xiangyang.
On the second day, Mu Rousang went to the kitchen and made a hot plate of pastries to find Left Lady. After listening to what she said, Left Lady also felt that it was not a big deal, she just wanted Mu Rousang to stay in the courtyard of Old Madam Zuo to play.
Seeing that she had agreed to it, Mu Rousang brought lass back to his own courtyard, and said: "This time, all of you are satisfied."
Chun Yi quickly ran in front of her and bowed and thanked her, saying: "Miss, this servant can write home now and describe the city's bustle on paper, so that servant's little brother can know what it looks like in the capital."
Mu Rousang turned her head to look at the Aunt Liu and laughed: "Aunt, tomorrow you must worry more and hold them tightly, don't run into nobles outside."
In fact, she had a deeper meaning behind her words. Although the girls had been by her side all this time, she had seen a lot of things. However, there was a rumor circulating around the capital that even the hawkers had a reliable mountain behind them!
Aunt Liu naturally understood what she meant, and said: "Don't worry miss, I will take good care of the four of them tomorrow."
The Aunt Liu was born in the palace, so she was well aware of the clothes of the noble women of different ranks. With her carrying the four of them to have a good lesson, Mu Rousang would be able to sleep peacefully.
The few girls, including the normally steady and steady Chun Yan, were also overjoyed. They did not notice the scheming in Mu Rousang's eyes at all.
After another day, Aunt Liu brought a few girls out of the house, and drove the carriage to take a look at the shop.
When dinner came, the four of them followed Aunt Liu into the courtyard with bitter faces.
Mu Rousang held back her laughter and asked: Is the capital fun?
You don't know, on the streets, just drinking a bowl of ordinary tea requires two pieces of silver. It's not half a coin, it's two pieces of money, if it was in the county, it would be enough to buy a big steamed bun, oh, and there's also that roasted goose, when Miss Ping is at home, there's no need to spend money at all. It would be five pieces of silver for a girl, not five pieces of silver, but two pieces of silver for a person who wants to go to the kitchen and eat so many fat chickens and ducks.
Mu Rousang looked at this foodie + idiot, then pushed her to Mu Rousang's side and said: "Aiyo, young lady doesn't know, Yun Jin thieves here are expensive. Luckily I bought a lot last year in Xiangyang, over there, I bought 10 taels of silver a foot long worth of Yun Jin, this is 20 taels of silver a foot, young lady, it is 20 taels of silver!"
She had always been in charge of Mu Rousang's brocade clothes, so naturally she was the most interested in these things. She continued, "This servant has also been in the Silver House to ask, for an eight or two layer scarlet gold bracelet, you have to look at the flowers to make money. If it was a complicated one, then it would be no less than ten taels, and if it was a normal one, it would be four or five taels.
Spring Breeze weakly added, "Miss, isn't the pickled vegetables expensive at home? Selling to Young Master is only a few coins per catty. This servant found a small restaurant to eat at noon with a palm-sized plate placed in the middle of the plate. You asked me for ten coins, ten coins, which is enough for me to buy a bunch of embroidery flowers."
Mu Rousang suddenly felt a headache, and extended a hand to caress her forehead. It was not her fault, she had not known that her little girls loved money.
However, Chun Yan was afraid that her heart wouldn't beat fast enough and said, "Isn't that so? In the past, when our servants have not had a few pots of wine brewed at home, they have even talked about the rules and regulations of selling it to noble families. They even said it would be extremely expensive, several dozens of silver taels per catty! Ah pei, our family has plenty of wine!"
Mu Rousang quietly moved her feet, she felt that she was not facing four little rabbits, but four furious female dinosaurs!
"Aunt?!" Mu Rousang looked at her eagerly. Didn't he tell her to teach the little girls?
When Spring Scene heard her call Aunt Liu, she immediately said, "Miss, I'm so scared today. So the people selling Herbal Tea Eggs by the side of the road are all relatives of those noble people."
"Ugh!" "About that, there are probably many aristocratic families in the capital. The Emperor also has three iron-forging relatives!" Mu Rousang was a little too careful, could it be that the Little Girl was scared stiff today?
Sure enough, Chun Yun said very seriously: "Miss, this servant feels that it is necessary to secretly inquire about the The House of the Marquis of Loyalty."
Ah?! Mu Rousang then reacted and said, "Sure, just that I need to clean up the first and last part of it."
She nodded at the Aunt Liu who was hiding at the side. A few young ladies had received quite a few favors from Mu Rousang, she was afraid that they would get used to it, but when she reached The House of the Marquis of Loyalty, she would not put them in her eyes. It was better to have a few more people to look after, and seeing that a few of them had strolled back, her heart became a lot heavier.
Chun Yan hurriedly nodded his head. Seeing that there were a few people grappling with him, Aunt Liu asked, "Miss, do you want to pick a few girls from the manor to teach you?"
This meant that her hands were itchy, and these few big girls could finally start their apprenticeship.
