Chapter 426 Enlightening Others
Yinzhu could understand: "After all, it's you and Sister Xianchun who are getting married, so it's only natural that you should be busy in the mansion."
"Oh, by the way, this is for Sister Xianchun."
Only then did Lu Shian realize that there was another small bag at the bottom of the bag.
"What is it?"
Yinzhu smiled a little embarrassedly and said, "These are also some handkerchiefs and insoles embroidered by me."
"Then my eldest sister will be so happy."
Yinzhu smiled and lowered her head: "As long as you don't mind."
After saying this, Yinzhu nervously tugged at her clothes with her little hands under the stone table.
Lu Shian noticed that something was wrong with her and stopped smiling: "What's wrong? Are you in trouble?"
"Ah, no, no..."
Yinzhu slowly took out a silver note and handed it over.
"Originally I wanted to collect one thousand taels to give to you, but really..."
Lu Shian's pretty smile suddenly turned cold: "Yinzhu, what are you doing..."
Yinzhu interrupted Lu Shian and said, "Listen to me first, Shian. I know you are rich, and you don't need these few hundred taels of silver. These few hundred taels of silver are half of what I have earned since the opening of my shop. You can't buy anything good with a few hundred taels of silver, so I thought of giving it to you directly. You can buy whatever you need yourself."
Lu Shian stood up angrily: "Zhang Yinzhu, leave now, leave immediately, hurry up, take your filthy money and leave."
After scolding, she picked up the handkerchief insoles that Yinzhu had embroidered for her.
Yinzhu stood up angrily: "Shian..."
"Don't call me, go away, go away, I get annoyed just by seeing you, I've never seen someone like you before, I hate you, I hate you to death."
"Shi'an..." Yinzhu's eyes were misty.
Seeing her like this, Lu Shian couldn't help but soften his tone again.
"You're right. I'm not short of money now. As a young lady of a marquis's mansion, I really don't lack anything. But the more this is the case, the happier I am to receive these handkerchiefs and insoles you sent me, because these are all embroidered by you. There's a saying that a gift of goose feathers from a thousand miles away is worth more than the sentiment behind it. Silver beads, our friendship cannot be measured by money, don't you understand?"
After that, he said sternly, "If you send me the banknotes today, I will cut off our relationship with you. Do you believe it?"
"But I want to do something for you, or even if I spend a penny to buy you some makeup, it will be like giving you a penny of confidence."
Lu Shian knew that Yinzhu was truly doing this for her own good, so he reached out and hugged her.
"I know that Yinzhu treats me the best. But the man I want to marry is the prince."
The prince was second only to the emperor and above all others. How much money did she have to have the confidence to be in front of the prince?
Besides, her confidence has never come from banknotes.
"Take these banknotes back and put them away. I'll keep these embroidery."
Yinzhu wanted to refute, but when she looked up and met Lu Shian's gaze, she gave in and said, "Okay, I'll take it back."
"That's right, hehe... Let's finish eating here before we leave. Today is a food tasting. How about you try these dishes for me?"
"it is good."
royal palace.
The Queen Mother's palace.
Today, Lu Shian brought shepherd's purse and meat buns for the empress dowager to taste. The empress dowager ate three large shepherd's purse and meat buns in one breath but still felt unsatisfied.
Lu Shi'an and the palace maids were so scared that they tried to persuade the empress dowager together, and she repeatedly assured her that she would send wine to the palace in a few days. Only then did the empress dowager give up.
The Queen Mother waved to Lu Shian, signaling him to come over to her.
Lu Shian walked forward obediently.
You look even more beautiful in just a few days since I last saw you."
Lu Shian said playfully, "Your Majesty, you mean I was a dry and timid person before."
"Yes, you used to be so dry, just like me."
"The Queen Mother is not dry..."
"Haha, you know what, that facial cream you brought is really useful. Look, the spots on my face have faded a lot."
"You are very beautiful, Queen Mother."
"You are such a sweet-talker, no wonder you can coax the prince around."
"Queen Mother, what are you talking about? I didn't do anything to the prince."
"Don't worry, I am happy to see it happen. I am very happy that you two can be together."
As the two were talking, they heard a report from outside that the eldest princess had arrived.
Lu Shian immediately stepped aside.
The eldest princess came in and paid her respects to the empress dowager first, and then Lu Shian paid his respects to the eldest princess.
"What is it that the Empress Dowager has asked me to come here today?"
The Queen Mother looked at her daughter's haggard appearance and couldn't help but sigh: "It seems that you haven't had a good rest these days."
The eldest princess forced a smile and said, "I'm sorry to have made mother worried."
"Is that child really the prince consort's?"
The eldest princess sighed slightly: "There are some similarities."
"So what are your plans?"
The princess lowered her eyes and said, "I have no plans."
She slowly raised her head and looked at the Queen Mother: "Rumors are always rumors. Since they are just rumors, why should I care about them?"
The Queen Mother nodded: "This is a solution."
Lu Shian was listening on the side, she knew they were talking about Shen Cuo.
Shen Cuo is actually the son of the Prince Consort. What a twist of fate.
"By the way, how is Qianqian doing recently?"
"Recently, I always like to stay alone in the house, either staring at a book or looking out the window."
"Qianqian is too calm. If she could be half as lively as Shian, I would feel more at ease."
The mother and daughter both looked at Lu Shian.
The Queen Mother suddenly smiled and said, "You came at the right time today. Shi'an made some meat buns for me. They are really delicious. I'll ask Shi'an to send a few to you later. You can try them too."
Lu Shian:?
What does the Queen Mother mean by this?
Why did she have to send shepherd's purse buns to the eldest princess?
Although she didn't understand what the Queen Mother meant, she still bowed respectfully and agreed after being stunned.
"Talk to Qianqian while you're at it. You have a lively personality. If she interacts with you more, she will become more cheerful, too."
Lu Shian: ...
So it seems that he wanted me to go and persuade Su Qianqian.
Since the empress dowager has said so, how could Lu Shian disobey her order?
When she got home, she made shepherd's purse and meat buns and sent them to the Princess's Mansion.
She brought shepherd's purse and meat buns to Su Qianqian's room. Sure enough, Su Qianqian was downstairs in the corridor, holding a book and looking into the distance in a daze.
Lu Shian came up to her, took out a large meat bun with shepherd's purse from the lunch box and handed it to her.
Suddenly a bun appeared, which startled Su Qianqian. She turned around and found that it was Lu Shian. She cried out in surprise.
"Lu Shian."
Lu Shian smiled and said, "It's me."
Su Qianqian sneered: "What are you doing here? Are you here to laugh at me?"
"I don't have time to laugh at you. You don't know how busy I've been lately. I'm getting married at the end of the month."
Su Qianqian didn't respond, she stood up and wanted to go back to her room.
Lu Shian shrugged indifferently. She and Su Qianqian were not friends to begin with. What she wanted to do had nothing to do with her. She was just here on orders.
She took a look at the still warm bun in her hand and put it back into the food box.
She turned around and was about to leave, but she didn't expect Su Qianqian to be standing at the door of the room calling her: "Come in."
