Chapter 976: Visiting, Taking the Opportunity to Meet People
Early the next morning, Qi Baiyu took the letter from Yu Jie who was guarding the door, and then walked away.
When Shao Wanru got up, Yujie had already slept for a while and got up again.
Qu Le and Qing Yue served Shao Wanru together after he had washed up. After Yujie came over, after Shao Wanru had had his breakfast, they saw a maid coming outside to report that Luo Xiaowan and Zhang Qilan wanted to see him.
Shao Wanru invited them in.
"Thank you, Princess Chen!" When Luo Xiaowan saw Shao Wanru, she choked with sobs and was about to kneel down to salute.
Shao Wanru hurriedly stepped forward and helped Luo Xiaowan up, "Sister Xiaowan is so polite!"
"Princess Chen, if it weren't for you... I... I would have really ruined everything this time. If I drag it on, if the Queen takes action... then..." Luo Xiaowan's eyes turned red. She was timid. , a little timid, but not stupid. He knew that if he couldn't find Liu Xincheng yesterday, he would really only be dragged to death or get married by the Queen.
Fortunately, Prince Chen's Mansion sent news about Liu Xincheng. Fortunately, she brought Liu Xincheng to her. There was still room for redemption in her matter.
"Sister Xiaowan..."
"Princess Chen, please stop calling me Sister Xiaowan. I hope Princess Chen will just call me Xiaowan!" Luo Xiaowan shook her head.
"Princess Chen, please call Xiaowan by her first name!" Zhang Qilan also advised her.
Luo Xiaowan and Shao Wanru are not really relatives. It is actually inappropriate to call Luo Xiaowan Sister Xiaowan based on her identity, and it may even cause other accidents.
Shao Wanru also understood this truth, so he didn't force it. He nodded immediately and the three of them took their seats respectively.
After they sat down and the maid brought tea, Shao Wanru asked softly: "How is Xiaowan's marriage? Your grandmother didn't make things difficult for you, right?"
"My grandmother also agreed to cancel the engagement, and the wife of the Marquis of Xingguo Mansion also sent people over. This marriage is now canceled!" Luo Xiaowan said, holding the handkerchief.
"That's good!" Shao Wanru nodded, "Then what are your plans next?"
This marriage dragged Luo Xiaowan into a worse situation in his previous life.
"I... my mother said... I can catch my son-in-law..." Luo Xiaowan blushed and lowered her head. In the past, she would not dare to say these words, but now, whether it is Shao Wanru or Zhang Qilan, she is very Believing, the words came out naturally, "It doesn't matter what the family conditions are, as long as he is promising!"
Yangquhou Mansion is not a declining Xungui Mansion. It can be said that it can offer such a condition for the sake of this daughter.
It can be seen that Mrs. Yangqu Hou Shizi is sincerely good to her daughter.
"The Spring Festival is coming to an end soon. At that time, we can see which of the successful candidates are unmarried, and then pick the right ones!" Zhang Qilan also thinks this is a good thing.
The aristocratic families in the capital have always said that they want to find a son-in-law. Even if Luo Xiaowan is in a situation like this and cannot find the best, it is still possible to find an ordinary one. After all, Luo Xiaowan is the legitimate daughter of Yangquhou Mansion. He was also favored by Mrs. Yangquhou Shizi.
"That's the best!" Shao Wanru nodded, "Has your mother started selecting?"
Luo Xiaowan's face turned redder and redder, and she gently nodded, "Mother... mother has already started to choose!"
Although it is not yet known who will win the election, a person who has been
There are still people who are more knowledgeable in Japan. Madam Yangquhou also truly loves her daughter, so she screened her early in order to find the most suitable person for Luo Xiaowan.
"Don't worry, I asked my eldest brother to ask around to see which ones are most likely to win, and let the Crown Prince pick them first. This is better than after the results are announced!"
Zhang Qilan also smiled. After speaking, he clapped his hands on the table and suggested, "How about we go and take a look now? Didn't we say that the exam is over today?"
Counting the days, today is indeed the last day of the exam, and all the candidates should be released soon.
Previously, there were several roads that were specially blocked for the convenience of candidates.
Those roads are still blocked at the moment.
"This... is not good..." Luo Xiaowan blushed and shook her head. She had never been very courageous, and she really risked her life yesterday. She thought that if she really wanted to get married, she would have to give up her life. Okay, when I think about it last night, I still feel scared and my hands and feet feel weak. How could she have the courage to really rush out at that time?
"It doesn't matter. Let's take a look first. I don't think we can find a suitable one!" Zhang Qilan said rather disapprovingly, looking at Shao Wanru expectantly, "What do you think, Princess Chen? Let's go help Xiao Wanxiang." Once you take a photo, others haven’t, so it’s faster for us to take a photo!”
Seeing Zhang Qilan who was full of interest, Shao Wanru smiled, stretched out and slowly picked up the tea cup and took a sip, then slowly put it down and shook his head: "It's better not to go!"
"Why, we have nothing to do at this time anyway!" Zhang Qilan said in confusion. She felt that Shao Wanru's temper should not be such a timid one, so why didn't he dare to go with them.
"Yesterday when the Queen Mother was in the palace, she told me to go out less often. Prince Chen is not in the palace now. It's not good for me to go out all the time!" Shao Wanru explained with a smile.
Hearing what she said, Zhang Qilan felt inconvenient to instigate Shao Wanru to go out. She could only sigh helplessly, "If Princess Chen doesn't go out, I can't go either. What a pity!"
"Why can't you go if I can't go?" Shao Wanru became curious, fluttered his long eyelashes twice, and asked with a smile.
"My mother told me to let me learn from you, saying that you are very like Princess Chen, and that I just don't understand anything, and I am so bold that I don't know when I might cause trouble!" Zhang Qilan said with a face. When he felt bitter, his eyebrows also wrinkled bitterly.
Luo Xiaowan, who was offended to one side, also started to laugh relaxedly.
Shao Wanru stopped laughing, "You will be Princess Yue from now on. It's true that I will learn from you when I meet you. When will you need to learn from me again!"
The meaning of this joke was obvious. No matter how refreshing Zhang Qilan was, he couldn't help but blush at this moment and spat at Shao Wanru, "We will talk about the rest of this later. Anyway, in the eyes of my mother, I am always inferior." Yours, whatever you do, my mother will praise you."
"What did I do?" Shao Wanru asked with a smile on his face as his heart moved slightly.
"What else? As for what happened between you and Princess Yuan'an, my mother also said that you did the right thing, and you should have done so at that time, so as not to make anyone make a fuss about this matter!" Zhang Qilan said.
Shao Wanru had a dispute with Princess Yuan'an, and Chu Liuchen broke the second master Qu's hand at the palace gate. Now it has spread throughout the capital, and most people think that Shao Wanru
If this is what you should do, this is the best way to relieve your anger. Why can Mr. Qu Er do whatever he wants, and Princess Chen has to endure it.
No matter what, Princess Chen's identity and status are not comparable to the Second Young Master Qu. Is it possible that because she is a woman and the Second Young Master Qu is a man, she should suffer a disadvantage because she was born first?
"I was just too angry at the time, so the maid took action. Our Highness was also very angry at the time!" Shao Wanru said softly.
This was said very implicitly.
"This kind of person should be taught a lesson. He doesn't even know what kind of thing he is. He dares to stretch out his hands randomly. Qu Yuanan spends all day and night resisting her gentle and fair face. It's really shameless to do such a thing!" Zhang Qilan curled his lips and said.
This matter seems to have nothing to do with Princess Yuan'an, but the women fighting in the inner courtyard cannot be seen clearly. Princess Yuan'an is obviously unclean, but she still pretends to be innocent. , it really makes people look down upon her.
In the past, Princess Yuan'an's reputation had always been very good, but now it seemed that it was just mediocre.
"Princess Chen, the shop you went to that day was actually really good. I've been there before and ordered a few sets of clothes. Each set was very good. I ordered a few more sets after that, but they haven't been delivered yet. ." Zhang Qilan said with pity, and suddenly her eyes lit up, "Princess Chen, can you ask someone to invite this shopkeeper here? I will order a few more sets, and Xiaowan will also order a few sets!"
Luo Xiaowan's current situation is indeed inconvenient to travel. Hearing Zhang Qilan's words, he was also quite moved. He raised his eyes to Shao Wanru and looked at her eagerly.
Although no words were spoken to harmonize, the meaning of this desire was already obvious!
"Call someone over?" Shao Wanru hesitated.
"That's right, call someone over here and we'll have a good selection. We'll also bring some materials and plates. My mother won't let me go out recently, saying I want to be more safe." Zhang Qilan saw that there was something going on and hurriedly made another move. He advised with a grimace.
Luo Xiaowan timidly called out: "Princess Chen..."
"Okay!" Shao Wanru said helplessly, "Yujie, go and ask the shopkeeper of Die Yi Zhai to come over and ask her to bring some fabrics, embroidery, and buckles!"
"Yes, Princess, I'll be there soon!" Yujie understood, responded crisply, turned around and left with a smile.
Since what happened that day, in order to avoid suspicion, Shao Wanru has not been in contact with Aunt Dong. Now that there is such an opportunity, it happens to take a trip!
Aunt Dong came quite quickly, and she came over in a carriage not long after. There were also three embroiderers who came with them, bringing some good materials and the needed buttons and embroidery edges. They piled the table full. Zhang Qilan and Luo Xiaowan were so excited that they gathered together and carefully selected.
Shao Wanru only chose one outfit and sat on one side to rest. Aunt Dong also stood on the side with a smile, and several embroiderers were waiting on the table.
"How is Aunt Dong's business?" Shao Wanru asked with a smile, looking like he was chatting.
"Business is still okay, but..." Aunt Dong sighed after saying this, and her eyebrows were filled with sadness.
"If there is anything embarrassing for Aunt Dong, just tell her. When our princess came back that day, she felt sorry for you and disturbed your business for nothing!" Qu Le answered with a smile.
