Chapter 1203 Become a royal merchant
Gu Chunzhu's suggestion really made Ling Xiao's heart move. When he saw that she was serious about what she said, he took it down in his heart and went back to prepare for a good discussion with Ling's mother.
Mother Ling was somewhat unhappy because of what Gu Chunzhu said to her that day, but because the other party was the general's wife, she had to be sullen in her heart. Seeing Ling Xiao running diligently to the General's Mansion all day long, and seeing him come back the other day, he said with some yin and yang, "I see you, all my heart is on Peony."
"If you're so worried and it takes so much trouble back and forth, why don't you just tell the general's wife that you can live in the mansion." Mother Ling sat lazily against the back, looking at him dissatisfied.
Because Ling Xiao was about to discuss this matter with her, hearing her say this, he was in good spirits, so he didn't notice the teasing in her words at all, and immediately agreed, "That's what I mean, and the general's wife also finds it convenient. , I'll pack up tomorrow."
After he finished speaking, he quickly got up and went to the room to pack things, leaving the shocked mother Ling behind him and said fiercely, "I really have a daughter-in-law and forget my mother."
Early the next morning, Ling Xiao went to the General's Mansion early after dealing with the lawyer's office. As soon as Gu Chunzhu heard that he was coming, he hurriedly invited people to come in.
Ling Xiao thanked Gu Chunzhu sincerely, and brought some preserved fruit snacks that Peony likes to eat. Gu Chunzhu smiled and said, "You can stay in peace when you come to my general's residence. You don't have to worry about Peony's diet. With us."
"But you can take care of Peony here, and you have a good idea of what she eats. I will be relieved when I go back to take care of her." Gu Chunzhu briefly explained and let him go.
After hearing this, Ling Xiao hurried back to Peony, just in time to catch up with the servant girl in the house to deliver food.
"I'll come." Ling Xiao took the initiative to take it and handed it over beside Peony, "What is this, it smells quite sweet."
"Steamed cheese with sugar, it's sweet and sour." Peony smiled with a very appetizing look, "It's not like I've eaten breakfast for less than half an hour. Madam said that eating this will help digestion."
As Peony said, he dug out a spoonful and handed it to Ling Xiao's mouth. He was curious and took a bite.
"Although I don't eat a lot at each meal now, the number of times I eat every day has increased." Peony smiled, recalling Gu Chunzhu's words, "The madam said that this is to eat less and eat more."
"No wonder, you are really a lot more rounded now than you were a few days ago." Ling Xiao heard that and looked at her up and down.
"The three main meals a day are moisturizing and not greasy, and they are often made in different ways. About every hour or two in between, some snacks will be delivered." Peony smiled and patted her stomach, "I have Appetite, eat a lot, how can you not get fat."
Ling Xiao looked at Peony and seemed to be in a very good mood, and couldn't help feeling a little bit of admiration and admiration in her heart. The general's wife really had a way. She just returned to the mansion for a few days, and she swept away the gloomy appearance before, and she was willing to take care of herself. Have a meal.
"By the way, don't look at me, I seem to have gained weight now, I can walk more than before." Mudan remembered, "The madam said, only in this way can the body be healthy, and the children born will be strong and not. Just fat."
Speaking of this, Peony couldn't help but feel warm in her heart, and her eyes moistened with emotion, "Xianggong, since I returned to the General's Mansion, Madam has been thinking about me every day. , many of them were made by the lady who taught the cook herself."
Ling Xiao looked at her moving appearance, understood her in her heart, and held her hand tightly and said, "Peony, don't worry, I will always remember this kindness from Madam to us, no matter what happens in the future, I will always remember it. I won't forget it. Madam is our aunt, and she will be our relatives all her life."
Perhaps it was because of her sentimentality during pregnancy. Looking at Ling Xiao's appearance, Peony's tears could not help falling down, causing Ling Xiao to panic a while. In the end, she could only hug her and gently pat her on the back to comfort her. , so that she slowly calmed down.
Peony's situation stabilized day by day, and Gu Chunzhu slowly became less worried, and he was able to devote his energy to other things.
The days are getting warmer and brighter in the blink of an eye.
The imperial court was going to hold a grand ceremony of sacrificing the sky. The news came that Gu Chunzhu, as the wife of the general, naturally had to attend this ceremony as well.
Fortunately, she was prepared early on, and on the day of the ceremony, Gu Chunzhu wore a formal and decent costume, accompanied by Xiaocheng into the palace.
The emperor presided over the ceremony of sacrificing the heavens. Although the ceremony was carried out in a solemn and orderly manner under his auspices, Gu Chunzhu found that the emperor's body was not as good as before, and he even needed someone to support him. It was really getting worse.
Gu Chunzhu sighed in his heart that even a dignified and dignified emperor could not escape the life of old age, sickness and death in the end.
When it was time for the worship, Gu Chunzhu saw a small word "Huai" on the incense candle handed over by the palace servants, and couldn't help but be taken aback. She looked up at the paper money and other sacrificial items. There was also a small symbol on it. Only then did she discover that the sacrificial items used in this solemn and solemn ceremony of sacrificing the sky were all tributes from Mu Huai's paper money shop.
The ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven is solemn and cumbersome, and the time is therefore very long. Gu Chunzhu finally survived the ceremony of sacrificing the heavens, and then had to deal with the princes, ministers, and court wives, listening to their rhetoric and touting each other.
Although Gu Chunzhu doesn't like these things, he also knows himself
Status and status, it is also easy to deal with it.
She looked up and saw that her son Xiaocheng was also surrounded by princes and ministers. She didn't know what she was talking about, but seeing how everyone surrendered to him, she knew that Xiaocheng was prestige in the hearts of these ministers. I felt relieved a lot.
After a lot of tossing, he was finally able to leave. Xiaocheng settled his own affairs and made a special trip to prepare to escort Gu Chunzhu back.
After leaving the altar holy place, Gu Chunzhu and Xiao Cheng were walking in the palace. Seeing that there was no one around, she said softly, "Xiao Cheng, I just saw the Chinese character on the sacrificial offering, I didn't expect Mu Huai to be so small. The paper money shop has also squeezed into the ranks of royal merchants."
"I have to say, my mother was short-sighted before, and your business acumen is stronger than my mother's." Gu Chunzhu looked at Xiaocheng with satisfaction, thinking that she had grown up, but it's a pity that the mother always thinks that the child is still young. I was worried that the paper money business between him and Mu Huai would not be successful.
"What mother said, Xiaocheng's business is far from mother's, but I have heard from you before." Xiaocheng smiled.
