After rebirth, she became the favorite of the powerful minister.
Chapter 18 "My Aunt and Nephew"
"Oh~ This must be my sister-in-law!" A bright baby face appeared at the gate of the yard. She had a round face, round eyes, and a chubby face. When she smiled, she seemed to be innocent and naive to deceive the world. She said, "Sister-in-law, I am your sister-in-law, Li Yushuang."
As he spoke, without waiting for the other party to say anything, he had already stepped into the yard and ran towards the fabrics. He touched them carefully and exclaimed in amazement, "Wow, so beautiful... Is this the material from Jinxiu Pavilion? Did my sister-in-law buy these? How much silver would that cost? I, your sister-in-law, am not so lucky!" He turned around and asked the embroiderer about the price. The embroiderer smiled awkwardly and said she didn't know, only saying that she was ordered to deliver them. She did not mention the money.
Yuanyuan's eyes widened even more. "No money? Free? Then why don't you give me a few horses? You can serve them to your heart's content."
Lady Xiu had heard about the eldest young lady's behavior outside, and her smile became more awkward. "Of course not, this is a gift from Lord Song to the third young lady... Eldest young lady, please be careful with your words. If this gets out, it doesn't matter if it tarnishes the reputation of Jinxiu Pavilion, but it would be bad if it ruins the reputation of the third young lady as well."
The other party seemed to have remembered Yuan Ge who was left out, and when he turned around, he climbed onto Yuan Ge's arm and greeted with a smile, "Sister-in-law, I happened to have something to do at my parents' home two days ago, so I went back. As a result, I missed your wedding. I hope you won't blame me?" He liked to use the "er" sound when he spoke, and he was very affectionate and familiar.
He doesn't seem to care about people's faces.
Yuan Ge pulled his arm out calmly, then said with a polite smile, "Sister-in-law, that's not right. We are a family, how can we care about these things? Isn't that too formal?"
Li Yushuang smiled even more when she heard this. "I've heard people say that your personality is very good. It's true! I liked you the moment I saw you!"
After saying that, she turned around and called out to the outside of the moon-shaped door, "Hey! Nannan, why are you still standing outside? We are aunt and niece, there is nothing to be embarrassed about, come in!" After saying that, she turned around and smiled at Yuan Ge, "Little kid, you are shy..."
As she turned her head, the pearls and jade on her hairpins swayed and made tinkling sounds, which was quite lively.
This is a woman who can be as active as a drama even if she is alone - Yuan Ge pulled the corner of his mouth and complained in his heart. A head popped out of the door, with a very flattering smile, wearing a light yellow dress, which was obviously more plain and simple in comparison. A baby-like face with a thinner figure, holding a handkerchief, walked up to her step by step, smiled and knelt, "Madam San Shao, my daughter's name is Li Jinfeng, and I am the niece of Madam Eldest Young Master."
Yuan Ge understood immediately. It turned out that they were just "aunt and niece". She said that Wen Qian didn't have such a big niece. Yuan Ge nodded slightly and looked at her from head to toe with a smile. The other party obviously hunched his shoulders and lowered his head, like a frightened bird with nowhere to hide.
Li Yushuang seemed to be immersed in this self-directed and self-acted excitement, and she shouted with a beaming face, "Look at you, kid, what Third Young Master's Wife... Why are you so distant? Since you call me aunt, my sister-in-law is your little aunt! Come on, call me little aunt!"
Li Jinfeng lowered her head and twirled her handkerchief, calling out "little aunt" in an ambiguous tone. Her voice was suppressed in her throat, and if you didn't listen carefully, you wouldn't be able to hear what she said. Obviously, she was unwilling.
Li Jinfeng was reluctant to have an extra aunt for no apparent reason, and Yuan Ge was also reluctant to have an extra niece of such a big age, so they just smiled and didn't respond to the address. Li, however, was quite happy to be associated with her relatives, and introduced her to Yuan Ge, "My brother's little girl, she came with me to stay for a few days recently. She just came back and came to see you right away, so I brought her along, do you mind, sister-in-law?"
The older baby-faced one was too enthusiastic and familiar, and the younger baby-faced one avoided looking at her. Yuan Ge was a smart person, so she understood. It seemed that the aunt and nephew had something to say, and it was obviously not something that could be brought to the table. Her smile faded, and she told Shiyin to prepare tea, and then said, "Of course I don't mind. But I have something else to do here. Sister-in-law, take this... Miss Li, to wait for a while, okay?"
We can't keep the embroiderer from Jinxiu Pavilion waiting for too long. If we make a fool of ourselves, it will only make people laugh. There's no need for that.
Li Yushuang responded with a smile, saying "brother-in-law, please do as you please, sister-in-law, please do as you please", but she followed him step by step without any tact, and kept talking, "Oh, this Shu brocade, this cloud pattern, wow... the embroidery... Jinfeng, come and take a look at the fabrics in Jinxiu Pavilion, open your eyes! So many... are they all sent by my brother-in-law?"
Yuan Ge felt that he had never been so "enlightened" before. This Li had a talent. She could take care of everyone present with just one sentence. She shook her head and the pearls and jades on her hairpin were dazzling.
Yuan Ge shook his head secretly, and finally selected only three pieces of material that he liked but was not particularly expensive. He decided on the style and measured the size before he personally sent the person out the door.
On the other side, Li was still amazed and shook her head repeatedly, thinking that Yuan Ge was a simple-minded person. Since it was given by her husband, why should she be embarrassed? If it were her, she would accept it all, and at most, she would return three pieces! Thinking of this, she glanced at Li Jinfeng, but Li Jinfeng was timid, she stood aside with her head down, not even giving him a glance, and just clutched the handkerchief in her hand.
Seeing this, Li shook his head repeatedly, feeling very disappointed.
The next moment, seeing Yuan Ge coming back, she changed her face and went to greet him, "Sister-in-law, I'm telling you, if this man gives his wife a gift, if you don't accept it or accept too little, they will be unhappy. If you meet him again in the future, you should accept it... If he really doesn't like it, it's also good to keep it and give it to others as a favor. How many people are lining up to buy the materials in Jinxiu Pavilion! Don't you agree?"
The plan was clear and obvious, the only thing missing was to just say that he was giving it to herself.
Shiyin put down the teacup, shook her head and stepped back, looking unhappy.
Yuan Ge remained calm - the main show had not yet begun, and she happened to be in the mood today, so she sat down to see what the other party was performing.
She sat down by herself, and then called Li Yushuang and Li Jinfeng, "Sister-in-law, please sit down and have some tea. And... Miss Li, don't be so reserved."
She called her "Miss Li" all the time. Although she had a smile on her face, her cold attitude was quite obvious. Li's eyes flickered slightly, but when she looked up, she was very enthusiastic, "That's right, you kid! Why are you so restrained in front of your aunt? Sit down! The tea in your brother-in-law's yard is good tea. You can't even drink it at your aunt's place... This kid is reserved and has a dull temperament, but he is honest."
The last sentence was directed to Yuan Ge again.
