Honghui is reborn in Legend of Zhen Huan, I will protect my mother
Chapter 62: Replacement of Jade Bracelet
Perhaps because the atmosphere was too warm, Yinzhen stayed in Haitang Garden for a whole day, and did not return to the front yard until it was getting dark. The second prince had just died ten days ago, so he was in no mood to go to the back yard.
Yixiu did not keep anyone. She always acted virtuous and did not try to win favor. If the Fourth Master came, she would serve him attentively. If the Fourth Master did not come, she would have her own life to live, such as asking about Honghui's food, clothing, and daily life, and handling government affairs.
The whole day was filled with joy, so much so that everyone forgot one thing: the main courtyard had never sent anyone to Haitang Garden from the beginning to the end.
In fact, Honghui had noticed it, but since his father and mother were so happy, he didn't say anything to spoil everyone's fun. Besides, he didn't care about the gift from his mother, so why should he take it to heart?
The gifts received today filled up a whole table, which was really not a small amount. Anyway, he was quite satisfied.
"This was sent by Mama, this was sent by Uncle Thirteen, that was sent by Uncle Fourteen, and this one..." These gifts had to be recorded and stored that same night.
He had a separate small storehouse filled with gifts received for third-day baptisms, full-month celebrations, first-birthday celebrations, and meeting other ceremonies. Xiuxia, who was by his mother's side, was responsible for keeping and counting them, so he didn't have to worry about anything.
Seeing her son standing there pointing and talking, Yixiu couldn't help but smile and said, "Okay, do I need you to remind me? Mother has already had everyone sort things out. You'd better go to bed early. You have to go to the front yard to study tomorrow!" Honghui is smart, sensible, considerate and filial. The only bad thing about him is that he sometimes worries too much, which even his biological mother can't stand.
"..." He just wanted to stay a little longer. Was it necessary for his mother to be so anxious to send him away?
Honghui sighed. His mother was determined, so he could only obey: "Okay, mother, I will take my leave now."
……
Early the next morning, before the hour of dawn, Su Peisheng came to Haitang Garden holding a box.
"Concubine, eldest prince, these are the warm jade bracelets that Lord Baylor asked me to bring. They are a perfect pair." His attitude was very respectful, and there was a hint of flattery hidden in his words. "Lord Baylor urged me early in the morning, and I came here without stopping."
Yixiu's heart skipped a beat. How could it be delivered so quickly? She didn't sleep well the previous night, and was looking forward to exchanging the bracelet as late as possible. She never thought that the Fourth Master would send Su Peisheng to deliver the item so early in the morning, giving her a surprise attack.
She subconsciously fumbled with the jade bracelet on her hand, pretending to be nonchalant: "Thank you, eunuch, for sending it to me. Please thank Lord Beile for his kindness on my behalf."
Su Peisheng bowed his head quickly, not daring to show any disrespect, "Thank you, Madam Concubine. This is what a servant should do."
He has served the Fourth Prince for twenty years, and he can still tell what his master is thinking. Now that the wife is weak and the legitimate son died young, the concubine and the eldest prince are increasingly valued by the Fourth Master. The position of the crown prince must belong to the eldest prince! Unless the wife is willing to adopt a concubine's son as the legitimate son, there will be twists and turns in the position of the crown prince.
However, given Lady Fujin's personality, would she agree to adopt a bastard's son?
Probably not!
"Concubine, please open them and have a look. These bracelets and the jade pendant for the eldest prince were made only last year. The prince has never given them away. You have the only one here!"
No matter how wildly he thought about it, Su Peisheng pretended to be flawless on the surface and waited in the room for the concubine to open the box and put on the bracelet, so that he could report to his master when he returned.
Everyone in the room was watching, even her own son was waiting there. Yixiu could only put aside all her hesitations and gently opened the box, revealing a pair of moon-white warm jade bracelets inside.
There were several layers of thick scarves under the bracelet. The scarves were bright red, making the moon-white bracelet look even clearer and brighter.
Yixiu was stunned for a moment, touching the bracelet but without any other movement. The thing was excellent, but she just missed the old one more!
Seeing this, Honghui hurriedly urged: "Mother, put it on and see, it will look great on you."
Forget it, forget it! She had already promised the Fourth Master and Honghui, so she should not procrastinate any longer! Yixiu came to her senses and called Jianqiu to take off the jade bracelet she had been wearing, and put it away carefully before putting on the new warm jade bracelet.
It's so warm! In just a moment, I felt the warmth coming from my wrist. It didn't feel heavy at all, and my skin looked much whiter when I wore it.
"Mother, it's just right, it suits you very well!" Honghui clapped his hands first, then stared at his mother intently, "Mother, what Father said is absolutely right, you have fair skin, so you should wear this moon-white bracelet. Now that you wear this bracelet, you look even better!"
Yixiu blushed, glared at her son, and said with a smile: "You are such a brat, you are making fun of your mother! What time is it now? Why don't you go downstairs to have breakfast? If you are late, I will see how you will explain it!"
After saying this, she turned to Su Peisheng and said, "Eunuch Su, please sit down and have a cup of tea. You came here so early in the morning. Thank you for your help. Jianqiu, why don't you bring a cup of tea to Eunuch Su!"
Su Peisheng waved his hands and shook his head to show his refusal, "I don't dare to accept the reward from the concubine. The prince is still waiting for my reply!" The master has not had much official business these days, so he has a lot of free time.
"Okay, then I won't keep you here. Jianqiu, go see Eunuch Su off." He also gave the reward money to him!
Su Peisheng did not refuse the reward from Haitangyuan. He knew Du Ming very well who could accept the reward and who could not. After all, collusion between the front and back yards was a taboo in the mansion!
Later, Su Peisheng casually mentioned this matter to the Fourth Master. As expected, the Fourth Master had nothing to say and let him accept the reward.
"Master, my wife put on the bracelet you gave her right away, which shows how much she likes it!"
Yinzhen played with the jade ring he had just put on, feeling very happy: "Really? She was a little hesitant yesterday, and I thought Concubine didn't like it! Tell me, why was Concubine so hesitant yesterday and didn't want to change the jade bracelet on her hand?"
Su Peisheng came forward and said jokingly, "How can I guess what Concubine Concubine is thinking? But I have an idea in my mind that the jade bracelet on Concubine Concubine's hand was given by you when you first met Concubine Concubine, so Concubine Concubine is so reluctant to part with it and is not willing to change it easily!"
Yinzhen also thought of this, his memory is not that bad! Yixiu, Yixiu, since you value and care about your husband so much, why don't you say anything?
I should go to Haitangyuan more often in the future! Yixiu is so sensible, we can't let her down!
