Chapter 43:
Wen Tingzhou heard a trace of dissatisfaction in his mother's words, and did not care about the maid and mother around him, stepped forward and took Mrs. Wen's arm in love.
"What do you do, don't think that I will expose it if you act like a baby."
Mrs. Wen snorted heavily.
The maids and mothers around were all Mrs. Wen's confidantes. Seeing the face of Mrs. Wen, they all bowed their heads and laughed at the same time.
Wen Tingzhou didn't care, his brows and eyes had a slight smile, softly speaking.
"Mother, I didn't tell you about this, so I was afraid that you said I was not doing business properly and was delaying my studies?"
"Really?" Mrs. Wen was unbelievable. "Then when did you learn wood carving?"
Wen Tingzhou took Madam Wen's arm and sat down beside Madam Wen, and told a white lie: "Three years ago, I studied when I went out to school."
In fact, he learned wood carving from Master Wu when he was six years old, and he studied on and off for nearly ten years, doing some small wooden carvings in his spare time. Therefore, except for his grandmother who accidentally discovered this, no one else found out.
Mrs. Wen was taken aback. She remembered that Tingzhou had to know the name of Yuan's head at that time. The old man did not let him participate in the next year's Chunwei, and directly let Tingzhou go out to study for two years.
Unexpectedly, Ting Zhou secretly learned woodworking.
"It takes only three years to make such an exquisite small attic. It seems that you have spent a lot of thought. Have you forgotten the upcoming meeting?"
Mrs. Wen was angry and tasted. Ting Zhou will take part in the test after Mrs. Wen's birthday, and he will also focus on the love of his children. It is strange that Mrs. Wen is not angry.
This year's test was held in late April because all the adult princes who had been appointed the king to Kai Enke, came to the capital to take part in the test, and all of them were preparing for the test. Only Tingzhou often met Ruan. Miss Fourth wrote to communicate.
This is nothing. When anyone is not relaxing, it is rare for his son and his future daughter-in-law to have a good relationship, but Ting Zhou silently made an exquisite small attic for Miss Ruan Si.
Mrs. Wen was immediately unhappy.
To put it bluntly, Mrs. Wen is jealous and upset. She feels that her son has been raised in vain and she will try something. After passing the exam, she will be the icing on the cake. If she doesn't get the Wen family's power, she can get a good official position.
It's just that Mrs. Wen needs this raft now. After saying this, she shook off her son's hand forcefully, indicating that she is very angry now.
Wen Tingzhou continued to pull up.
Mrs. Wen threw it away again.
After going back and forth several times, Mrs. Wen finally lost her temper by her son and gave him an angry look.
"How old are you, give me this trick, let me tell you, it's useless to act like a baby without giving me a reasonable explanation."
The maids and mothers around them all held back a laugh.
Who would have thought that Young Master Wen, who was in a beautiful scenery outside, would look like this in front of Mrs. Wen.
"Mother, don't be angry, don't you know the strength of your son? It's easy to try high school."
Wen Tingzhou blinked.
"Humph!" Mrs. Wen snorted coldly, but her face became much softer. This is the truth. Her son is her pride and greatest confidence.
"Mother, in fact, for the past three years, I have secretly made wooden hairpins for you every year. If you don't believe me, I will ask Zhang Qing to send the box with the wooden hairpins over." Wen Tingzhou saw that his mother was still not suffocated, so he didn't. Again vaguely, the final trump card was presented.
When Mrs. Wen heard it, her brows and eyes were stretched out, her face also smiled, but her mouth was reluctant to say: "Who knows if you made this girl for Ruan Xi to fool me."
Wen Tingzhou laughed: "Mother, don't worry, every wooden hairpin is engraved with small characters. You will know by looking carefully at that time."
Mrs. Wen was really happy now. She didn't think her son would cheat her on this, so she stopped eating, thinking that her son had a daughter-in-law and had forgotten her mother.
She smiled and urged: "Hurry up and let someone take it over."
Wen Tingzhou nodded quickly in response, and sent someone to ask Zhang Qing to send the mahogany box he had placed in the study to the main courtyard.
Around a cup of tea, Zhang Qing panted and hugged a mahogany box in.
Wen Tingzhou took a look and found no mistakes before handing the mahogany box to Mrs. Wen.
"Mother, this is the wooden hairpin your son made for you. I hope you don't dislike it."
Mrs. Wen took the mahogany box and opened it with expectation. There were three delicate and elegant ebony hairpins neatly placed inside.
Roosting phoenix hairpins, wishing hairpins, goose falling flat sand hairpins.
The workmanship of each hairpin is extremely exquisite. If it weren't for the son who said he made it by himself, Mrs. Wen would have thought it was a master who did it.
"This hairpin is not bad, I didn't think my son has a talent for woodworking."
After Mrs. Wen was surprised, she picked up the Wishful Hairpin and took a closer look. Sure enough, she saw a small engraving somewhere on the hairpin—Erhe Mother's Birthday Ji Le, as did the remaining two hairpins.
Mrs. Wen opened her eyes and smiled, and she touched the hairpin in her hand lovingly.
"Okay, you go back to the yard to eat first. By the way, your grandmother's birthday is coming soon. I don't know if there is any jewelry that Ruan Xi has in her hand. Mother Zhao, you can go to the storeroom and get a set of red gold head jewelry. Go to the sincere mansion."
Mother Zhao responded with a smile.
"Yes, ma'am."
Wen Tingzhou was pleased with the importance his mother paid to Ruan Ruan, and once again took Mrs. Wen's arm, but pretended to be savage.
"Mother, you are so kind to Ruan Ruan, I'm going to be jealous!"
Mrs. Wen patted his hand angrily and amusingly: "Don't be coquettish, go back to eat quickly, don't be hungry."
Wen Tingzhou only then let go.
After leaving the main courtyard, Zhang Qing looked at the gentle and elegant son with admiration, and said secretly, the son was really powerful, and his wife was happy in a few strokes.
...
Ruan Xi didn't know that her fiancé Wen Tingzhou had once again solved the little problem that she and Mrs. Wen had just raised with the future mother-in-law. At this time, she was being summoned to Ning Shou Tang by the old lady.
"Four girls, it will be Mrs. Wen's birthday in a few days. I have asked two pieces of excellent material to make you two brand new dresses."
The old lady looked at Yi Fa's four granddaughters kindly, said with a smile on her face, and asked her mother to hold out the two sets of dresses.
Exquisite, gorgeous and atmospheric.
"The granddaughter thanked the old lady." Ruan Xi was blessed, and his beautiful face was full of joy.
"With the new clothes, the jewelry you wear can't be sloppy." The old lady attached great importance to the fourth granddaughter's birthday party for Mrs. Wen.
Ruan Xi said with a smile: "Old lady, you gave your granddaughter a lot of precious jewelry, and granddaughter can choose a set of decent jewelry to wear."
The old lady thought that she had given her four granddaughter a set of the most precious set of gem-inlaid jewelry, and that there was no more precious jewelry on hand, so she gave up.
At this time, a maid came in to report: "Enjoy the old lady, Mrs. Wen will send someone to send something to Miss Fourth."
Ruan Xi was taken aback, obviously not knowing why Mrs. Wen suddenly gave gifts.
The old lady squinted her eyes, and there was a vague guess in her heart. She looked at her fourth granddaughter with a little more smile.
"Hurry up and invite someone over."
The person who came to give the gift was a kind-faced mother, who smiled after saluting the old lady.
"I'm Mother Zhao next to Madam. Madam knows that Miss Ruan Si is going to the old lady's birthday banquet, so she ordered me to send a set of jewelry."
Ruan Xi's eyes were filled with joy as soon as she said this, she quickly said, "This gift came in time, Mother Zhao, thank you Madam for me."
The old lady's eyebrows were filled with joy, and she smiled and said, "Mrs. Wen is interested."
I had known that the fourth granddaughter was approved by Mrs. Wen, but Mrs. Wen was so concerned about her granddaughter.
Her fourth granddaughter is really blessed.
After Ruan Xi accepted the jewelry box, Zhao's mother retired and returned to life.
The old lady was very interested in the jewelry that Mrs. Wen gave, and said with a smile: "Fish girl, quickly open the box, and let my grandmother see what jewelry Mrs. Wen gave."
Ruan Xi pursed his lips and opened the box.
What catches the eye is the dazzling brilliance of a dozen gems and red gold jewelry.
In the room, the maid and mother's eyes all fell on the box, almost unable to move their eyes.
Ruan Xi's eyes were full of surprise.
This is a set of red gold head jewellery made by the imperial palace. It is ingenious and exquisite. The inlaid gemstones are huge and clear, valuable and extremely precious.
The old lady was also shocked. It turned out to be the jewellery made by the imperial palace, Mrs. Wen's big handwriting.
The set that she gave to her fourth granddaughter was both jewel-inlaid jewelry.
...
Not long after Ruan Xi left Ning Shou Tang with the jewellery box, with the acquiescence of the old lady, the news that Mrs. Wen sent the imperial jewellery to the Fourth Miss Palace spread quickly, and it soon reached the ears of the ladies who came to visit Ruan Sanniang. , They were sour and envy and jealous.
First, Mr. Wen gave the small attic he made by himself, and then Mrs. Wen gave the jewelry. This Miss Ruan Si is really lucky.
Especially those who have also decided on marriage, wishing their future mother-in-law was Mrs. Wen.
It's so popular.
Li Xiangxiang, who was detained and finally bowed to compromise, looked sad when he heard the news.
She can only comfort herself, the fourth prince is actually better, his status is higher than that of Big Brother Wen, maybe he will be in that position, and she will have a day in the world.
It's just that it's hard to settle in my heart.
Which woman does not want her future husband to be single-minded to herself.
Of course, Li Xiangxiang was only unwilling in his heart. She and Brother Wen had no chance, how could they be so stupid that they would lose the opportunity to be a prince and concubine.
Except for Li Xiangxiang, Ruan Sanniang also quickly learned the news. Her expression was uncertain and her eyes were red with jealousy.
For a moment, Ruan Sanniang came up with a vicious idea that she would explode the news that the fourth sister had taken the sterilization medicine.
But when she thought of her wonderful mother, Ruan Sanniang had to suppress the idea.
Yao Hong: "..."
Miss four gets angry every time she hears good news from Miss Fourth.
Now the young lady has changed more and more, she almost doubted whether the young lady was possessed by something dirty, and the lady was also strange, always secretly telling her to stimulate her more.
Yaohong didn't understand or struggled, she decided to tell her good news to make her happy.
"Miss, the servant girl heard that the second son of Qi not only bought your script as a gift, but also told people that the script you wrote was wonderful and beautiful."
"Miss, Master Qi, this is to show you good."
Last time I said that I was a little unpleasant, but the second son of Qi did not pursue it, but the young lady somehow got upset and stopped mentioning the second son of Qi. Every day, chatting with the noble girl who came to visit seemed to leave the second son of Qi behind. .
Yaohong couldn't help feeling anxious.
She thought of Qi Er's handsome face, her cheeks were slightly hot, and she did not want the marriage between Miss Qi and Qi Er to change.
After all, the young lady had a history of regretting marriage.
