Royal daughter-in-law makes money

Chapter 31 A gift for the concubine

Chapter

Qiao Anan thought again, and she didn't know what Concubine Xian liked.

"Chun Tao, what do you think Empress Xian likes?" Although Qiao Anan felt that her future mother-in-law would not live with her in the future, she did not need to care too much about her attitude towards her.

Anyway, she doesn't have to rely on her mother-in-law for survival.

The huge Second Prince's Mansion might still depend on her.

However, since she wanted to give a gift, she naturally had to give something appropriate.

At least, you can't make a fool of yourself!

After all, she was the biological mother of her future man. At present, Qiao Anan felt that the man looked quite what she wanted and didn't want to be picky about other men anymore.

"Miss, I believe the ladies in the palace must have everything they need. Why don't you prepare some rare things for Concubine Xian?" Chuntao said after thinking for a while.

"I think that the national treasury is empty, and the concubines in the harem may also be in financial difficulty. Miss, why don't you give them some jewelry? I think Empress Xian will definitely like it." Qiuju said disapprovingly.

"What you said makes sense!" Qiao Anan thought about it and felt that Chuntao and Qiuju were both right.

Finally, Qiao Anan picked out several sets of gemstone headpieces and a set of pearl headpieces for Empress Xian. In addition, she also gave Empress Xian a double-sided embroidered screen, a tree-shaped red coral, a set of mahjong, and a set of leaf cards.

Qiao Anan was afraid that Concubine Xian wouldn't know how to do it, so she specially sent Xia He to the palace to teach her.

"Your Majesty, Miss Qiao sent someone to deliver something to you." Nanny Qiu said to Concubine Xian with a smile.

"Huh? She didn't come in person?" Empress Xian became unhappy when she heard that she had sent someone to come.

Empress Xian thought that she was honoring this merchant's daughter by letting her deliver something to her, but she didn't expect that she would be so ungrateful!

"Your Majesty, why don't you take a look at what the young lady from the Qiao family gave you? If you don't like it, we can make other plans." Aunt Qiu thought that the things that the Qiao family had just sent were quite a lot.

Nanny Qiu believed that among so many things, there must be something that the Empress liked.

"Why doesn't she come in person?" Empress Xian asked somewhat dissatisfiedly.

"Miss Qiao originally planned to come in person, but the emperor ordered Miss Qiao to take the people from the Ministry of Revenue to learn how to run a business. The emperor is anxious about this matter, and Miss Qiao dare not delay!" Nanny Qiu quickly spoke for Qiao Anan.

"Forget it, considering that she is working for the emperor, I will not bother with her. Let those people in." Empress Xian thought about it and realized that since it was the emperor's order, it was naturally more important than her own, so she didn't want to make trouble for herself. However, she was very curious about what Qiao Anan would have people send her?

She doesn't want anything that is not presentable.

"Your servant Xia He greets Empress Xian. Empress Xian, may you live a thousand years, a thousand years, and a thousand thousand years!" After Xia He entered the Yuxiu Palace, she quickly performed a dignified salute to Empress Xian.

"No need for formalities." Empress Xian looked at the maid Qiao Anan, who seemed to know some etiquette, and her dissatisfaction was reduced a little.

"Your servant thanks Her Majesty Empress Xian." Xia He stood up neither humbly nor arrogantly.

"I heard that your master asked you to deliver something to me?" Empress Xian asked casually.

"In reply to Empress Xian, today I am here to bring you some little gifts on the orders of my young lady. Please accept them." After saying this, Xia He clapped her hands. The servants filed in and carried the prepared gifts into Yuxiu Palace.

Empress Xian, who had not taken it seriously at first, looked at the dazzling array of things.

I suddenly lost my composure. Is this what you call a little?

Finally, Concubine Xian's gaze fell on the mahjong table and she asked in confusion, "What is this?"

"In reply to Empress Xian, this is something my young lady prepared for you to relieve your fatigue because she was afraid you would be bored in the palace. It's called mahjong." Xia He said with a faint smile, thinking to herself that her young lady was indeed very good at predicting things.

The first thing that attracted Concubine Xian was actually mahjong.

"What is mahjong?" Empress Xian thought about it and thought she had never heard of anything called mahjong. She wondered what kind of sauce this mahjong sauce was. Was it delicious?

However, these merchants are used to some unconventional little gadgets.

But I have to admit that this mahjong did attract Empress Xian's attention.

"Your Majesty, this mahjong is a little toy to relieve boredom. I will teach you how to use it later." Xia He said with a smile.

"Oh, then I'm really looking forward to it." Empress Xian was really looking forward to what Miss Qiao could bring her to relieve her boredom.

Besides, now that the emperor has granted her and Jue'er a marriage, she cannot offend her son for the time being.

Regardless of whether he liked the thing that Qiao Anan had sent him or not, he had to at least pretend to like it for the sake of appearance.

Otherwise, wouldn't others laugh at me?

"Hey, it's so lively here, Sister Xianfei!"

Just as I was thinking about others, the unpleasant voice of Concubine De was heard outside the door.

"It's Sister Defei who is here. Aren't these some little gadgets that my future daughter-in-law sent me to relieve my boredom?" Empress Xian looked at the uninvited Concubine De and began to show off to her.

"The Qiao family is really generous. Wow, this double-sided embroidery is worth a lot of silver. There is also such a big coral tree. Sister Xianfei is so lucky to have found such a wealthy daughter-in-law. I think in the future, sister Xianfei will never have to worry about having no money." Defei covered her mouth and laughed secretly. However, although Defei said nice things, she was actually belittling the second prince in her heart for finding a merchant's daughter as the prince's consort.

However, he felt a little jealous. If this girl from the Qiao family was his daughter-in-law, then these things should have been carried to his Zhongcui Palace today.

She just saw several big boxes.

But the boxes were not opened, and she was very curious about what was inside.

Concubine De thought that if they were just some worthless things, they would be enough to make her laugh at Concubine Xian for a long time.

"Sister Defei is right. I now have a daughter-in-law with such a wealthy family. From now on, Jue'er and I will never have to worry about food and clothing." Concubine Xian said slowly, feeling annoyed in her heart. However, don't think she can't see that Concubine De is jealous of her and Jue'er.

After all, the treasury was empty and their harem was not that rich either.

The eldest prince seems to still want to fight for that position, so naturally he is short of money.

Although her son holds a large number of troops, he is not obsessed with imperial power. Otherwise, she would naturally fight for it for her son, but she also knows that her son is not interested in that.

Empress Xian thought that the position might not be a good one. Since her son didn't like it, she wouldn't force him to take it. If it really didn't work out, being a leisurely prince would also be good.

"What Concubine Xian said really makes me jealous!" Concubine De covered her mouth and laughed secretly, thinking, Concubine Xian said this because she is afraid that others don't know that they are living off each other?
