Chapter 143 Gifts
When Shen Qingrou secretly took out the Danfeng Chaoyang hairpin, Shen Qingxi had not started preparing yet.
She was in the flower room all day, not in a hurry at all.
"Miss, although you ordered someone to buy these two pots of flowers a few days ago, there are many people who give flowers to the eldest princess every year, such as top-quality Clivia and tranquil lotus. We don't have any new ideas for giving such gifts."
Jingniang whispered, she was a person from Anding Hou Mansion, so she naturally knew the grand occasion of the royal princess' birthday. When she thought of the warehouse she had been to in the morning, Jingniang said hatefully, "Miss, all the things of the lady have been replaced. I can see clearly that the furniture of the golden nanmu was replaced with yellow rosewood, the blood jade was replaced with ordinary red jade, and there were many other things that looked like they were not the same as before. I wanted to check it carefully, but you didn't let it go, hey! You can't let Mrs. Hu ruin her wife's things like this!"
Shen Qingxi smiled, "Don't worry, please wait until the eldest princess's birthday is over before checking."
Jingniang wanted to speak but stopped, but Yuzhu suddenly said, "Why does this Xifu crabapple still have a fragrance?"
There are begonias in the mansion everywhere, but they all have no fragrance. Only the two pots taken by Shen Qingxi are fragrant and elegant, which makes people intoxicated.
This flower was ordered to be purchased when Shen Qingxi planned to repair the flower house a month ago. The purchaser was Fu Lin, the dowry manager of Song's life. He had been communicating with Jingniang for so many years, so he was the most loyal.
Jingniang didn't know where Fu Lin bought it, but she knew that the two pots of flowers were exchanged for Shen Qingxi with an ancient painting from the previous dynasty.
Shen Qingxi smiled and said, "You think it smells good, and the eldest princess will also feel it smells good."
Yuzhu smiled, "I have never seen the world before. I think it smells good if the fragrance of flowers is a little bit fragrant, but the eldest princess is different. Miss, I also think this gift is a bit too light."
Shen Qingxi stood up and said, "Don't worry, I have a clear idea."
After saying this, Yuzhu and Jingniang stopped talking. Every time Shen Qingxi said this, it means that she has made a decision, and it must be the right decision!
Jingniang turned around and said, "As the lady's instructions, staring at the person over there, Hu ordered people to go out and invite three managers to the mansion."
Shen Qingxi paused, "Three officials? You ask Fu Lin to check these three people."
Jingniang nodded and turned around and went out. Yuzhu looked at the two pots of flowers, then looked at Shen Qingxi, and suddenly said, "Miss, will your two pots of flowers definitely be liked by the eldest princess?"
Shen Qingxi turned her eyes to look at her, "Why do you say that?"
Yuzhu looked at Shen Qingxi's eyes and said, "Because you are so confident, I feel that you are sure of winning at first sight. For some reason, I believe you."
Shen Qingxi smiled, "Those who believe in me will receive eternal life."
Five days later is the birthday of Princess Yongle Chu Jun. Early in the morning of that day, Shen Qingrou took Shen Qingrong and Shen Qingfu dressed up as a flowery tree, waiting at the second gate. Not long after, Shen Qinghui and Shen Qingxi helped the old lady walk out. Compared to the simple and elegant Shen Qingxi and Shen Qinghui, Shen Qingrou and the other three were so precious that they wore jade and gold on their bodies!
The old lady frowned after just a glance, but just asked, "Are the gifts ready?"
Shen Qingrou and the other two nodded quickly. The maids behind the three each took a small box one foot square. Shen Qinghui's maids also held a small box, but Shen Qingxi had two big boxes on their side.
Shen Qingrong smacked her tongue and whispered, "What are you preparing for? Why is such a big box?"
Shen Qingfu got the news from Shen Qingrou a long time ago, and covered her lips and smiled, "Don't my elder sister like to plant flowers? It's just two pots of flowers inside..."
Shen Qingrong burst out laughing and said indifferently, "It's just two pots of flowers! But when it's used such a big box, others would think it's Maitreya Buddha! When the box is opened, it's really a shame!"
Shen Qingrou smiled but said nothing, "Okay, don't say much."
Shen Qingrong looked at Shen Qingrou and snorted in her heart. Her second sister has lost power now, and she can see that she is not such a kind person. Because of this, Shen Qingrong has long stopped offering her as a fairy.
"What is the second sister preparing?"
