After Xu Xiaoxiao returned, he entered the space and told Ling Xiaoyu what had just happened.
Of course he supported the request made by Xu Xiaoxiao. If it had to be done, it should be done immediately. So a few days later, Shangguan Hong received an oral instruction from the emperor's grandson.
After all the problems are solved, you can officially become a disciple.
Xia Qingfeng gave her full support, and Xiao An and Cang Jian also rushed back. Xiao An seemed more stable and taller after being away for a few months.
Now that there is no war, Cang Qiyuan also asked them to come back. Xia Qingfeng mentioned to him that Cang Jian went to the military camp not long after his wedding. After leaving for several months, the two young couples had to be reunited. This daughter-in-law proposed it, so it needs to be done immediately!
The apprenticeship went smoothly, and the gifts exchanged were all embroideries of their own. Xu Xiaoxiao was even more surprised by Shangguan Hong's embroidery. It was actually double-sided embroidery. It was really a master level! Xiaoxi really made a profit.
A few days later, another happy event happened in the house, that is, Xiao An and Xiao Xi wanted to recognize Yang Ma as their godmother, and they wanted to change their surname to Yang, and they would provide for Yang Ma until they died. Mother Yang was so excited that she cried while holding her two children. Xia Qingfeng was also happy to see this happen. Since then, Xiaoan has been renamed Yang Xiaoan, and the creek has been renamed Yang Xiaoxi. None of these three people were slaves. When Yang Ma left the Hou Mansion, Xia Qingfeng directly changed her status back to a good one. Therefore, Xia Qingfeng specially arranged a small courtyard for them in the mansion. They are not slaves, but helpers of the mansion.
Everything was perfect. The eunuch Shen Youfu rested in the mansion for a month before reluctantly leaving. During this period, Xia Qingfeng checked his body and found that he had many hidden diseases. Although he was more than ten years younger than the old emperor, his health was much worse.
Xia Qingfeng directly gave him ginseng chicken soup with spiritual spring water. After all, he was the old emperor's most trusted personal eunuch. He had to take good care of his body in order to serve the emperor better, right?
He was in good health and had been eating and drinking well in the past month. Shen Youfu had gained a lot of weight when he returned, and he was almost disliked by the old emperor when he returned.
Soon, there was only one month left before the wedding. On this day, Xia Qingfeng's mother, Mrs. Xia, came to the door. "Mom, why are you here? You didn't say anything was wrong last time I went back!"
Since the end of the war, Xia Qingfeng has been returning to Yuyang County every half month. If he has enough time, he will go by carriage. Sometimes he is too busy and will just drive back in the middle of the night. It is a few hours' drive and is very convenient. .
But is there something urgent about my mother's sudden visit to the state this time?
"I'm here to take you and Xiaoxiao back to Yuyang County. You will get married in a month. How can you live in a house where people outside will gossip."
"Then what should I do with the medical school here? I still have to attend classes."
"That won't work. Stop your class for a while. Students also need to digest what they have learned. 'Review the past and learn the new.' He told them to learn nursing from Jingru first. By the way, she can't run away either. Wait. You are getting married, so she has to come with me, and she has to get married to Li Nanxing at the end of the year. Even though neither of us agrees to a big wedding, they still have to be separated and cannot live in the same house."
So the next day, Xia's mother left with Xia Qingfeng and Xu Xiaoxiao, leaving Cang Qiyuan standing pitifully at the gate, staring blankly at the billowing smoke and dust in the distance, facing the people who had just arrived from the Holy Capital City. Cang Dao came back and said, "Master, how did you know that this subordinate is coming back?" Cang Dao was so moved that he rubbed his hands together. How could he have met such a good master!
Cang Qiyuan rolled his eyes at him indecently and entered the house.
Cang Dao...what's going on?
After entering the house, Cang Dao realized what was going on. It turned out that the master's daughter-in-law had been picked up by her future mother-in-law. Alas! Why do I have to hold a happy event when I come back this time? Then her eyes wandered around the house, but she couldn't find him. Also, the lady had left, how could she not follow her.
In the evening, the swords, guns, swords and halberds reunited after a long absence. The three men all looked unhappy when they saw Cang Jian, which made Cang Jian confused. I don’t remember offending you three...
On this day, the house was still busy with preparations for the wedding. In the evening, after finishing the work in the embroidery room, Shangguan Hong taught Xiaoxi needlework in his room. At this time, a Xiu Niang came in and said, "Hey! Sister, you are so attentive to teaching me. You have been busy all day without even taking a break." After saying this, she naturally sat aside.
Shangguan Hong asked Xiao Xi to embroider first, then turned around and looked at the person who came. This Xiu Niang was called Xiang Lan. She was a very good strategist. She had a good relationship with the maids and eunuchs in the palace. She also tried to get along with the nobles in the palace. She was a good friend, but her status was so low that no one even looked at her. But her embroidery work is very average. Compared with the embroiderers outside, she is naturally better, but compared with the ones inside the palace, it is very ordinary.
Shangguan Hong looked down upon such people very much.
"What do you want from me?"
"Of course, congratulations, sister. You see, you are not only staying in Youzhou by Princess Zhan, but you have also accepted such a good apprentice. Naturally, congratulations are needed." After saying that, he took out a handkerchief from his sleeve and opened it. Wrapped in it was a bracelet with good water quality. "This is a congratulatory gift from my younger sister to my older sister."
"Thank you! No need for gifts. After all, it's not easy for everyone." After saying that, he pushed the handkerchief back.
Just as Xiang Lan wanted to persuade her again, she was interrupted by Shangguan Hong, "If you have anything to say, just tell me. I don't like beating around the bush."
When Xianglan saw this, she didn't force herself any more. She smiled slightly and said, "If sister stays, our tailoring institute will lose the backbone of you. You must find someone to replace you. This replacement will have to be done by yourself." Man! Otherwise, people may speak ill of you without your knowledge and ruin your reputation. It would be bad if this reaches the ears of noble people!"
Shangguan Hong looked Xiang Lan up and down, "Then who does my sister say is one of my own? Who is more suitable?"
Xianglan was also a little embarrassed, but she still spoke, "Sister, look, how is sister? We have been sisters for many years, but we are our own people. If I sit in this position, you can rest assured that this tailoring institute will still be with you. Just like you do, you can send me a message to dispatch at any time, and my sister will definitely do it."
Shangguan Hong looked at her with an expressionless face, "I am not qualified to promote the next female officer. I will only put forward my opinions to the superiors. The female officers in this tailoring institute must be people with a pure heart and good embroidery skills. They must not just Someone who knows how to work hard." After saying that, he took the needle and thread from Xiao Xi's hand and said, "I want to teach my son how to needle and thread, so I won't give it to my sister."
Seeing her firm attitude, Xianglan didn't say much more, flicked her sleeves and left.
Xiaoxi looked at the closed door and said, "Master, I don't like this aunt."
"It just so happens that I don't like it either." Then the two looked at each other and smiled.
Xiang Lan, who was huffing and puffing here, happened to hear the maid in the house say that the prince was back and was going to find Yang Ma to ask for tea to send to the prince, and stopped immediately.
She rolled her eyes and turned to the kitchen, "Mother Yang, I am the embroiderer from the palace. I am a little thirsty now. Can I come to your place to drink some tea?"
Yang's mother is a simple and kind person. Now her life is going smoothly and she is smiling every day. When she heard that the girl wanted to drink tea, she quickly poured it for her and brought a plate of snacks for her to eat.
Xianglan ate one and said with surprise on her face: "Mama Yang's snacks are really delicious!" Then she pretended to be shy and said, "Can I also send some tea to the sisters in the embroidery room?"
"Of course, Madam has already told me that you have worked hard to dress her up for her wedding, so I have to entertain you well." He said without stopping, and put the tray into Xiang Lan's hands.
Xianglan took it with a smile, thanked her, turned around and walked out of the kitchen...
