Chapter 732 The gift list came flying like snow flakes!
Jiayin also knew that grandma had such thoughts, so she "reluctantly" gave away so many good things to Baozhu.
At this time, Sister-in-law Qiong came over. It turned out that someone was visiting the Wen family.
Mrs. Wen held her belly and held Granny Tian's hand as she went back.
Everyone is curious, because Mrs. Wen raised her baby in Suijintan, and what she covets is peace and quiet.
From almost the time we moved here, no one has bothered me except close people like the Liu family.
Speaking of Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrived.
Just when everyone in the Li family was guessing, Mrs. Liu actually came to visit in a carriage.
The Li family were very surprised and quickly welcomed her into the house to talk.
The Liu family and the Li family are also close friends, and their children can run around in the back house so well that they are so familiar with each other.
So Mrs. Li didn't mince words, she directly called Mrs. Liu by her maiden name and asked for clarification.
“Zitong, why are you here suddenly? Are you looking for something to do with our family, or are you here to visit Jinrou and come to our house to sit down when you see she has guests?”
Mrs. Liu sat next to the old lady and said with a smile: "Auntie, I came here today because I have something to do and to see you and Jinrou."
After that, she asked a little strangely: "I saw that the carriage in front of Jinrou's door had a sign with the word 'Gu' on it. If I guessed correctly, there is only one person named Gu who walks around with Jinrou in Xindu. Female dean.
“But the dean is so cold-tempered, why do you come here as a guest today?”
"I don't know?" Mrs. Li was also confused. After thinking about it, she asked Aunt He to send a plate of oranges over and drop by to see how Mrs. Wen was doing.
After all, Mrs. Wen is already eight months pregnant. Not to mention pushing and so on, even being very angry may lead to premature birth.
Soon, Shuiling came back and said, "Mrs. Wen is fine. I was very happy to talk to the lady who came to the door."
Everyone felt relieved, and Mrs. Liu also talked about business.
“Auntie, yesterday the Marquis showed great power in the city and wiped out a place called Yaochi, and also ransacked the eldest princess’s residence.
“I heard that many people were implicated and imprisoned because of a product called hibiscus ointment. Does your family know about this?”
Mrs. Li didn't hide anything from her, she just said it briefly.
“Yesterday, Fu Niuer went to the Princess Mansion for a flower-viewing banquet. She noticed something was wrong, so she found an excuse and ran out early.
“After the Marquis heard about it, he investigated a lot and found out a lot, which is why so many things happened.”
"No wonder!" Mrs. Liu suddenly realized and said with a smile: "It turns out that the princess also went to the flower viewing party. No wonder so many people entrusted me to my place."
As she spoke, she took three gift lists from her arms, put them on the table, and said: "Several noble ladies were also at the Eldest Princess's Mansion yesterday. My aunt also knows who is the name of the Eldest Princess' Mansion now?" It would be unlucky to stick to someone, let alone an unmarried girl.
"These families want to remove the girl's name from the list in the hands of the Marquis, but the Marquis is an upright man, and they can't say anything.
"So, they entrusted me to me through a good relationship, asking me to come and visit, hoping that my aunt or the princess would help me to say something."
Mrs. Li frowned, and before she could speak, Mrs. Liu quickly waved her hand and said, "Auntie, I am just a messenger. After all, these families visit our house a lot, so I have no choice but to make this trip."
"But if my aunt can't help, or if the Marquis has other arrangements, it's not a good idea to spoil the big thing just because I came to plead for mercy."
Old Mrs. Li breathed a sigh of relief quietly and replied: "I just know about this. I haven't seen Mr. Hou yet, so I have to ask him.
"We can't help, and we can't speak rashly, dragging down the Marquis and ruining the affairs of the family and the country."
"Auntie is right, I think so too." Mrs. Liu said with a smile, "So I didn't even open the gift list, just because I was afraid of getting jealous." The guests also came over after seeing them off.
Hearing about her sister-in-law's visit, she smiled helplessly and said, "Just now, Dean Gu suddenly came to visit because of this matter. Her natal niece got involved!"
As she spoke, she also took out three gift lists.
In this case, Mrs. Li did not dare to accept it casually.
Unexpectedly, another carriage came in front of the door, and Mrs. Jia actually came to beg for mercy.
As soon as she saw the gift list on the table, she laughed, took three from her arms, put them on, and said, "Originally, I was still thinking about it on the way, for fear of causing trouble to my aunt.
"I'm fine now. I don't have to worry about the lice. I'm afraid my aunt won't miss these gift notes from me."
Everyone was dumbfounded and took her to sit down and drink tea.
Jiayin took advantage of this opportunity to get up and apologize to Mrs. Jia Er, saying that Baozhu was frightened because of her at the princess residence.
Mrs. Jia Er was very cheerful, waved her hand and said with a smile: "Princess, don't think too much, Baozhu and you play well, it's okay to suffer a little grievance together.
“She eats so many good fruits and snacks from our house on weekdays, it’s time for her to do something!”
Everyone liked her frank look and laughed.
Jiayin also felt warm in her heart. She piled the things for the orbs on the table and said with a smile, "Second Madam, this is just a reward from the palace. I gave her some of the orbs to calm her down."
Sure enough, the second lady did not refuse and accepted it happily.
"Okay, I'll bring her back. This girl is coming with me today, but I didn't bring her with me. She's so angry at home that she can even have a bottle of oil hanging from her mouth!"
Everyone joked for a while, and Jiayin asked for the gift list. He identified the person who gave the gift and recorded it.
At the flower viewing party that day, no one paid attention to her and Baozhu. When they were lazing around while eating snacks, she used Aunt He to get to know the girls present.
Now it comes in handy.
Those who were so anxious to give gifts and wanted to help the girl keep her reputation were the ones who were secretly called out by Bao Lei that day and drank hibiscus ointment.
The rest of the girls from poor families or with low status have not been tortured, so naturally they are not anxious.
She thought for a while and said to Mrs. Wen, Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Jia: "My adoptive father is handling this matter, and it is not easy for our family to agree casually.
"In this case, I will send some food to my adoptive father tomorrow, and I will ask my adoptive father then. If it can be done, it will be the best. If it cannot be done, it will be considered as my best effort."
"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Princess." Mrs. Jia Er said quickly and thanked her immediately.
Mrs. Liu also smiled and said: "Excuse me, Princess, for a trip. If you have any news, let us know as soon as possible. Otherwise, I'm afraid that the threshold of my family will be stepped down."
As for Mrs. Wen, she smiled and ruffled Jiayin's hair and told her, "Bring more people with you when you go out tomorrow. This matter will cause a big fuss. Be careful of others catching you and threatening your adoptive father."
“I understand, Senior Aunt.” Jiayin responded with a smile, “I’m taking Uncle Shan and Aunt Mei with me, so I won’t be afraid of anyone who comes to take care of them.”
After chatting for a while, they seemed to have lost their minds, and Mrs. Jia Er and Mrs. Liu were not in a hurry to leave.
They stayed at Li's house for a meal and looked at the flowers in the greenhouse before happily going home with a basket of fruits.
