Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Wen Wan studied. There was an hour's rest time at noon, and Wen Wan returned to her yard.  As soon as I entered the yard, I saw many wives waiting.

    "Miss, this is it. This is the embroiderer, here to measure your size and make you new clothes These are the owners of the jewelry store, they are all waiting for you here." Chunhua explained hurriedly.  Wen Wan listened and entered the house.  I asked the embroiderer to measure the size and then went out.

    "Bring the jewelry to Miss." Soon, the remaining three wives asked a few maids to open the box.

    Wen Wan is not very interested in those gold and silver precious jewelry, but is very interested in those exquisitely made beads and flowers.  I spent a long time picking and choosing, and all I chose were beautifully made bead flowers.

    "Miss, pick out some jewelry you like." Chunhua said on the side.  Wenwan picked the boxes one by one.  Wenwan only chooses those with fine and beautiful workmanship, but doesn't care about the materials.  Therefore, except for two dazzling and eye-catching objects, the ones she picked were simple and low-key.  Finally, I selected more than twenty pieces of jewelry.  They are all very well made.

    The three daughters-in-law looked at the jewelry that Wen Wan picked out, looked at each other, and left respectfully.  Chunhua was secretly frightened.  Wen Wan doesn't know.  There is a difference between ancient times and modern times. In ancient times, only very good materials would be carefully carved by masters.  Therefore, things that may seem inconspicuous, but if they are exquisitely carved, are basically precious and valuable.

    "It's not that she grew up in a village in the countryside and has never seen the world. How can she choose the right jewelry now?" A daughter-in-law muttered.

    "The emperor's granddaughter is born with nobility. Even if she is thrown into Zhuangzi, she is still the emperor's direct granddaughter. What does this little bit of eyesight mean?" a daughter-in-law continued.  Everyone nodded in agreement.

    If Wen Wan hears it, he will definitely faint.  It's none of her grandfather's business.  She hasn't even met this legendary grandpa yet!

    In the hall of Prince Zheng¡¯s Mansion, as soon as Prince Zheng came back, he saw the housekeeper coming to find him.  Listening to the butler's report on what Wen Wan did today.

    "Your Majesty, the lady has chosen twenty-three pieces of jewelry and spent a total of 19,700 taels of silver." When Butler Lin saw Prince Zheng, he immediately reported Wen Wan's feat today.

    "What kind of jewelry did she choose?" King Zheng was a little curious.  You wouldn't want all the jewelry, it would cost so much.

    "A set of jade headdresses, four thousand taels; a gold jade hairpin inlaid with jewels, worth two thousand five hundred taels; a set of green, snowy and fragrant jasper hairpins, worth one thousand four hundred taels; except for a few silver rings with hollow patterns.  The value is about ten taels. Each piece of other jewelry is worth more than five hundred taels." Butler Lin reported them one by one.  The lady is indeed a good judge of things.  Whatever is expensive is what you want.

    "Haha, my niece is really knowledgeable. Just let the cashier pay the bill." King Zheng was not angry after hearing this, but was very happy.  This proves that this child has high vision.  As expected of a child of the royal family, he understands that good things come with him.

    Butler Lin was secretly shocked when he heard this. He knew that his prince was very low-key and very simple.  I have never spent such a large amount of money on such a thing.  It seemed that the cousin's position in the prince's heart was indeed as important as he imagined.

    This matter immediately spread in the palace.  Everyone was extremely curious about Wen Wan.  They all knew that the prince was a serious man who respected simplicity.  This time, he was so generous.

    Dongxue was secretly very angry after hearing this.  The prince dotes on this illegitimate daughter too much.

    Wenwan named her yard Green Garden.  At this moment, several girls in the room looked at the selected jewelry and were all praising it.

    "Miss, you are really discerning. This jade headdress and green hairpin with gold beads and stones will cost at least five or six thousand silver." Qiuyue said with a smile.

    Wen Wan smiled and asked her how she knew: "Dongxue said it. She said that her aunt also had a way with this little green. It was a gift from the princess and it is very precious."

    ??Smiled gently.  One tael of silver is worth five hundred bucks, and one big coin is worth two bags.  Just these two pieces of jewelry can buy 50 million buns.  Plus other things, it¡¯s a lot of fun.  It is estimated that the palace is discussing this matter.

    "Miss, the prince saw that you didn't have any fitting jewelry, so he specially bought it for you. Just use it and don't think too much." Chunhua looked at Wenwan's hesitation and glared at Qiuyue.  She comforted Wen Wan, but was afraid that Wen Wan would have any thoughts.  How would you know, Wen Wan didn't even raise her eyelids.

    "Dongxue, how many times have I told you, but you don't know how to restrain yourself. The young lady is very popular with the prince and the prince. If you do this to the young lady again and again, once the prince and the prince know about it, even if your aunt is a member of the family.  "My master, you won't get any good results from me," Chunhua said angrily.  The young lady looks good and has a good temper.Never argue with her, always like this.  She tried to persuade her several times, but to no avail, and she was so angry.

    "Humph, it's just an illegitimate daughter. What will happen to her once she returns to Yizhou? Don't go up and fawn over her, you won't get any benefits." Dongxue said disdainfully.

    Chunhua looked at the attention paid by the prince and the prince, and the respect shown by the housekeeper, and she couldn't see how this was like treating an illegitimate daughter.  That status is completely placed on the same level as the Crown Prince.  Basically, everyone in the house noticed something was wrong, so Dongxue was deceived.

    "That's not the prince's illegitimate daughter, that's the prince's niece. Don't talk nonsense everywhere, otherwise it won't be good for you." Chun Hua Qiang still reminded softly.

    "Humph, who are you trying to fool! How can a niece look so similar if she is not a biological niece? I don't believe what those people say." Dongxue looked down upon her.  Because he was too jealous, he lost the caution he should have.

    Spring flowers are blooming.  I was ridiculed for my good intentions.  Forget it, I¡¯ve tried to persuade her a lot anyway, so I can¡¯t blame her no matter what.

    After dinner, Wen Wan went to eat, not wanting to bring many people with her.  Just let Xia He follow.  Walking slowly.

    "Did you know? It turns out that the cousin living in Green Garden is the daughter of Princess Fuhui. She looks exactly like our prince." Someone said in a low voice.

    "Yes, there are rumors outside now. Miss Cousin is really miserable. It seems that Princess Fuling's daughters are all county heads. If Miss Cousin is also the county head, how dare the people of the Heng family treat her like this. She"  one person said.

    After hearing this, Wen Wan was a little confused, "What is a county leader?"

    "Miss, the county master is not a thing, but a title." Wen Wan felt a thump in her heart after hearing this, and thought to herself, she needs to understand the meaning of this carefully.  Maybe it will be useful.

    Wen Wan was walking when she heard that King Zheng sent someone to invite her over.  As soon as Wen Wan saw King Zheng, she told him to take the things back and not want them anymore.

    "You don't want those jewelry, why?" King Zheng asked strangely.

    "I heard it's worth a lot of money. Now I am eating, living and using the palace, and I still have to spend so much money. I don't want to cause trouble to my uncle." Wen Wan wrote sheepishly.  Many of the words written by Wen Wan are in white, but Prince Zheng can still understand them.

    "It's just a few pieces of jewelry. When our Wan'er gets married, we will buy more." King Zheng laughed.

    Seeing that King Zheng didn¡¯t care, Wen Wan didn¡¯t take it to heart.  Why can't I get 20,000 taels of silver from a prince's palace?  Moreover, when you make money later, you can just return the money to your uncle.  Keep in mind your uncle's kindness to you.

    She is a top student who graduated from Princeton and won a gold medal. In her previous life, as long as she came up with plans, she would earn tens of millions of dollars.  Although the years are different, the basic things will not change. With these things, she will not be afraid of being poor when the time comes.  As long as her identity is clear, she won't worry about it in the future.  Here, nobles have privileges.  What's more, she is a noble among nobles.

    "Go and find out who is talking nonsense in front of Wen Wan. Punish him well." King Zheng looked slightly cold.  Wen Wan had no idea how much those jewelry were worth. Someone must have whispered in her ear if she said this.  It's really hateful, and they say that Wen Wan eats, lives and uses herself.  Even if he wants to raise Wenwan for the rest of his life, that is also his master's business. How can he tolerate those maids who talk nonsense and don't know whether to live or die?

    "Your Majesty, drink tea." Dongxue enthusiastically brought up a cup of Biluochun.

    "How did you take care of the young lady during this time?" the prince said expressionlessly.  Dongxue was a little panicked for a moment, but soon became calm again.  He said, just like Sister Chunhua, serve the young lady wholeheartedly.

    "Looking at the young lady and arguing, you think you can deceive the superiors and hide the inferiors. In the past few days, it's fine that you have not served me wholeheartedly, and you have been gossiping everywhere. When did the palace have such a naughty slave like you?" I heard Diao Nu say.  , Dongxue's face suddenly turned pale.  This is a very serious punishment. If you are not careful, you may be dropped from the clouds into the swamp.

    "Your Majesty, no matter how brave I am, I wouldn't dare to have such intentions! I have been serving you all the time, and I know the rules of the house very well. You can't believe other people's gossip.  "Dongxue immediately called out to Qu.

    "Hmph, other people's gossip. Butler Lin has to manage the entire palace, so he has the time to break your mouth. If he hadn't considered that you were given by the princess and that you came from me, he would have sold you out long ago.  How dare you try to deceive me, it's really abominable." The prince was very angry.

    When the news came back to the mansion, Butler Lin guessed that Wen Wan would be welcomed back to the mansion to choose a maid.  At that time, I heard the news. Butler Lin called out all the maids to serve my father. I felt that my father must be more powerful.Pay attention to your little cousin.  The housekeeper is the father's confidant and can guess what the father is up to.  At that time, the prince also wanted to sell a favor to his little cousin who he had not yet met, so he chose a clever one from among his maids to come over. Unexpectedly, out of the four maids, it was his own maid who had something wrong.

    When I heard the butler¡¯s vague hint, I still didn¡¯t believe it.  That maid was given to me by my mother and concubine, and she is the most clever and sensible person.  Judging from the past two days, my father treated Wen Wan very lovingly, and he was even better than himself.  It's too late for him to make friends with her, how could the maid given to him hold him back?

    When I checked, I was so angry that I couldn¡¯t hold back my breath.  Not only did the maid not take care of her attentively, but she also talked nonsense and was very dissatisfied with taking care of her.  Judging from her attitude, she probably regarded Wen Wan as an illegitimate daughter, and was very ashamed of Wen Wan's birth.

    "Your Majesty, my servant really wishes. If you don't believe it, you can ask the lady. I have really served you with all my heart." Looking at the prince's livid face, he became a little panicked.  But when I thought about it, I was given by the princess, and my aunt was the concubine of the palace, and she also gave birth to the fourth prince.  Her waist straightened up again. No matter what, she was just an illegitimate daughter. When she returned to the palace, she would naturally have the princess and her aunt to make decisions for her.  Although she had slacked off a bit in the past three days, she didn't see how she treated him.  Thinking of her gentle appearance and soft temperament, she probably would help herself shirk it.

    In this way, the heaviest punishment will be taken away from her.  With my appearance and temperament, I will serve my master in the future. How can I serve that young lady who looks like a maid?

    "I think my sister has a good temper and is easy to bully. Chunhua, if you dare to lie to me even a word, I will kick you out immediately." The prince shouted.

    Chunhua was a little embarrassed, but looking at the prince's angry look and Dongxue's innocent look, she sighed.  She had already told her that the young lady was favored by the prince, but she just couldn't listen.  All he wanted to do was return to the crown prince.

    ¡°But I don¡¯t want to offend anyone too much. After all, Dongxue is still the maid given by the princess to the prince.  He just said a few words briefly, not saying anything to be ridiculous, just saying that it was just right, and he couldn't figure out the young lady's temperament, so Dongxue was not thoughtful in some places.

    There was a quarrel here and there, and when they got the news, they thought about it and shook their heads.  I continued to listen to my husband's lecture. He looked at it and nodded, but he felt a little regretful.  But the teaching is still very dedicated.  Wen Wan also studies very seriously.
