The seeds that Xiao Heng had obtained were finally planted.
Gu Suier wrote them down and gave them to Xiao Heng's subordinates.
Of course, she herself comes over from time to time to see how her crops are growing.
When it was getting colder this day, the land began to sprout, and Gu Suier was finally relieved.
This is winter wheat. When it’s sown in autumn, it will start to sprout when it’s cold. This seedling will survive a winter, relying on heavy snow as a cover in the winter, carrying the severe cold, and after going through it, next spring will be full of green wheat seedlings. Son, you can harvest wheat in summer.
She stood on the ground, looking at the neat little seedling, her heart filled with expectations.
I remembered that when she had just moved here, she was still joking with Xiao Heng. He said what to plant, and she said to open up a plot to grow crops, and he agreed.
At that time, I thought it was impossible, so I smiled and passed away. Now I never thought that such a piece was actually planted.
And those guards sent by Xiao Heng before, under the teachings of Gu Suier, are now good at the crops. They are still planning to loosen up another plot in the backyard of the mansion to see if they can plant a few more crops in the spring next year.
At this time, the guards met Gu Suier, and one by one bowed their heads respectfully and shouted: "I have seen the concubine."
Gu Suier pursed her lips and smiled, and asked them about another plot of land, then said something for a while before returning.
When I went back, I happened to see Butler Zhuge talking to Mother An.
Madam An said fiercely to the steward Zhuge: "You said you didn't mean it, who believes it? I think you did it deliberately. You deliberately save my face! You've seen me not pleasing to your eyes long ago, and you want to take my hand People have been harmed, just treat me like that!"
Butler Zhuge stretched out his hands helplessly: "Mother An, I dare not dare, how dare I, I have no intention of this, everything is a coincidence."
Mother An snorted: "Then you give me back my maid? You give me back!"
Butler Zhuge touched his mustache: "The maid has already run away. I have sent someone to chase him. If I chase back, I will naturally hand it over to Mother An."
Mother An: "What is your little servant? You won't call me? He abducted my most capable maid!"
Butler Zhuge nodded again and again: "Naturally leave it to Mother An, let your hair fall."
Mother An was somewhat satisfied: "Then go and catch it, you have to catch it back anyway, you can't let them run away!"
At this time, the steward Zhuge saw Gu Suier coming back, and he hurriedly paid a courtesy call. Mother An looked back and saw Gu Suier.
"What's wrong?" Gu Suier asked with a smile.
She knew that Mother An and Butler Zhuge had always been at odds, and Mother An even secretly called Butler Zhuge the "Old Man Xiaozhen."
She was afraid that there would be something wrong with these two people, and she mentioned it to Mother An in private, and asked her to get along with the butler Zhuge. In turn, she naturally said to the butler Zhuge to let him not care about what Mother An said.
Later, I gradually realized that I was thinking too much.
Although Zhuge's butler is short and broad-minded, he doesn't care about these things at all. Although Madam An is making things difficult, she still knows the general when things happen.
Two people helped her deal with the trivial matters in the yard, and the other was in charge of the affairs of the house, and they were all in peace.
Now seeing the two of them arguing fiercely, she couldn't help but ask.
Butler Zhuge heard Gu Suier's question and then started talking.
It turned out that a family member under the steward of Zhuge actually hooked up with a maid under the hands of Mother An, and the two eloped like this.
"Niang, that maid named Qiuyue, she has always been an honest, honest-eyed, I always feel that the prosperous wealth under his hands is not a good person. This is a lie to Qiuyue. You said that if you were cheated out, you would be kidnapped. In the kiln, how is that good?"
Mother An looked worried: "Knowing people, knowing the face and not knowing the heart, who knows who his prosperous wealth is!"
Butler Zhuge felt helpless when he heard this: "That Wangcai is still my old family, an honest child, and he won't be able to commit such trafficking in a short period of time..."
Before he finished speaking, Mother An was anxious: "Can honest children lie to other girls to run away?"
Butler Zhuge choked, then retorted: "Can an honest girl elope with someone?"
When he said this, Mother An was so angry that she almost jumped up.
When Gu Suier saw it, she hurriedly persuaded her to fight, and then said to Mother An, "Mother An, don't worry about it. After all, after the steward Zhuge catches these two people back, we will do more care."
When Madam An heard Gu Suier's words, she naturally didn't mean to say what she was saying, and smiled; "Naturally, I listen to the mother, and everything listens to her."
Gu Suier comforted Mother An again before entering the room.
After Gu Suier entered the room, what she didn't know was that Mother An glared at Butler Zhuge vigorously, and then walked away disdainfully.
...
As for later, Gu Suier originally said that he wanted to ask how Wangcai and Qiuyue were, and whether they had recovered them, but then she was so busy that she was so busy that she didn't have the time to ask anymore.
Princess Zhaoyang really wants to marry Bei Di.
Princess Zhaoyang, who was married to Beidi, needed to bring along the dowry she didn't know how many horses and wagons, ranging from purse embroidery, as large as the bed cabinet, to gold, silver and jade.
Although Gu Suier had never had much friendship with the Zhaoyang princess, she was the concubine of the fifth prince in terms of seniority, and if the fifth prince had no concubine, she could barely make up the number, so she was half a sister-in-law.
Now that you are the half sister-in-law, you should do your duty as half sister-in-law and help take care of the dowry.
The so-called helping with care doesn't require any money from her, just going to help.
Gu Suier didn't quite understand what was inside at first, but later she gradually understood. There are currently four princes under the emperor, and these four princes and concubines have to go to the palace to supervise and arrange the dowry. This is a custom and a rule.
Gu Suier put aside the family affairs and went into the palace every morning. After entering the palace, go over to the grand prince concubine to order a 卯, say something, ask how the dowry is doing today, and then ask if you need help.
This kind of errand work is not tiring, just people have to go.
After going back and forth, she gradually got acquainted with the princes and concubines above.
The eldest prince and concubine is a dignified and elegant lady. She was born in the mansion of Houmen, with proper demeanor and gentle temperament. Gu Suier liked it at first sight.
The second prince and concubine were slightly cold, and their appearance was average, but they didn't talk too much and didn't have much affairs. People underneath seemed to say that the second prince and concubine were very good at serving.
The three princes and concubines were gorgeous, cheerful, laughed, and talkative, and liked to make fun of people.
Gu Suier slowly got acquainted with these few people, and could speak a few words.
The third prince asked secretly: "I heard that you have a very good relationship with that Baogu? She is so annoying that she cries and cry every day, so she begged to see the Third Royal Highness every day, saying that she wanted the Third Highness to give her. Be fair! I told people secretly, I stopped her from seeing His Highness, isn't this a joke?"
The three princes are so innocent: "I can't see the third palace for a day, how can I stop? She thinks I, the prince, can still control where the prince's feet go!"
Gu Suier couldn't help laughing when she heard this.
The words of the three princes are really funny and lively.
She pursed her lips and smiled and said: "I did have a relationship with Aunt Bao, but now I can't do anything about her. She once asked me to ask me to help her, not to mention just ordinary friendship. No matter, it is her father and mother, she can't help if she is married."
As she said that, she sighed lightly and smiled: "She is young and ignorant, thinking that she is the concubine of the third prince, and the third prince should spoil her, mother, don't care about everything with her. If it's really upset, just leave it alone."
She and Aunt Bao are old acquaintances, saying this, hoping that the three princes and concubines will stop worrying, and don't worry about Aunt Bao, otherwise Aunt Bao won't be able to eat.
"How can it be!" The three princes said with a smile: "My Royal Highness is different from the Fifth Prince. You are the only one in the Fifth Prince's Mansion. We, the maids who only provoke them, can line up outside the house, let alone Speaking of other romantic debts, if you have more debts, how can I hate a little girl!"
Seeing this, Gu Suier felt relieved, thinking that she could not help Aunt Bao, but hoped that she would not hire the imperial concubine to bear her grudge.
While talking, I heard footsteps outside, and someone immediately asked, "Where is this?"
The guards outside the palace reported that several princes and concubines were here, helping Princess Zhaoyang to count the dowry.
Behind it seems that the man lowered and said a few words, and finally the guard came in and replied, but said: "Return to the mother, just now the Dragoon guard came to the gate of the palace and said that they wanted to search for the assassin."
"Assassin?" The eldest concubine twisted her eyebrows slightly, but the words were still gentle: "Blue sky and white sun, here is the palace inner courtyard, how can there be assassins? There are assassins, why are they here? We didn't hear anything at all. No one has seen an assassin!"
The guard replied: "This subordinate doesn't know it. The Master Dragoon said that Dragoon Guard will search everywhere. This time it is just a routine."
The prince concubine looked at the others, everyone looked at each other, and finally nodded: "Then please come in and search the Dragon Cavalier."
