Royal daughter-in-law makes money

Chapter

"You are so lucky, my sister. Miss Qiao gave you such a big box of Dongzhu. I am so envious." Concubine Shu was a little envious after seeing so many Dongzhu.

But she didn't think it was that great. The Gu family had plenty of this stuff.

Xia He walked to the second box and stopped.

Slowly opening the second box, there were several small boxes piled together inside, but they were not filled to the brim like the pearls just now.

"Miss Xia He, what good things has your young lady prepared for Sister Concubine Xian?" When Concubine De saw the somewhat empty box, she thought that it must not be a good thing.

"Empress Xian, these are several sets of headdresses prepared for you by my young lady." Xia He picked up a box and opened it. Inside lay a set of exquisite ruby headdresses.

Defei, who was standing by, saw this and clutched the handkerchief tightly with her hands, feeling jealous and secretly annoyed that she had made a mistake.

But how could that bitch Concubine Xian deserve such a good thing?

"Yes, your master is thoughtful." Empress Xian said with satisfaction. She knew without thinking that the box was filled with head ornaments. She had just counted them briefly and found that there were still eight sets in it.

Even if she didn't open it to look, she knew that the head ornaments inside would definitely be more exquisite than this.

"I will not open the boxes behind Empress Xian one by one. They contain some jewelry and jewels prepared by my young lady for you. I hope you like them." Xia He felt that her goal for today had been achieved, so she asked Empress Xian to put those things away.

After all, the things she had just taken out were enough to make the other two concubines jealous.

Xia He thought to herself that she must not incur hatred again at this moment.

When Empress Xian saw the jealous Concubine De and Concubine Shu, she felt that she had achieved her goal.

Even if the things in the box were just ordinary headgear, these few things were enough to make me envied for a long time.

Finally, Xia He left the palace with her servants.

"Your Majesty, do you need to see the other things Miss Qiao prepared for you?" asked Aunt Qiu, looking at the boxes in the yard.

"No need, just carry it back to the warehouse." Empress Xian didn't think the things in those boxes were more valuable than what Xia He had just taken out.

Nanny Qiu's thoughts at this time were actually the same as Concubine Xian's.

After all, the things Xia He took out just now were already precious enough. Besides, shouldn’t the things she would normally take out be more precious?

However, seeing that Concubine Xian had a better impression of Miss Qiao at this time, he felt relieved.

But when the two eunuchs tried to carry the boxes to the warehouse, they found that they could not lift them at all.

"What's the matter? Haven't you eaten?" Empress Xian frowned and asked the two eunuchs unhappily.

"Your Majesty, please forgive us. This box is really too heavy, and we servants don't have enough strength!" The two eunuchs were so scared that they quickly knelt on the ground and said.

Qing Ning walked forward curiously and opened the box, but was shocked by what was inside.

"Empress!" Qing Ning screamed.

"Why are you making such a fuss?" asked Aunt Qiu with a frown.

"Mammy, look at what's in this box." Qing Ning secretly clicked her tongue.

The young lady of the Qiao family gave her master a box of jade jewelry of various kinds.

How could this huge box full of jade artifacts not be heavy?

Upon hearing this, Nanny Qiu also walked forward and was shocked when she saw it.

Oh my goodness, this is a box of fine jade.

Miss Qiao installed it like this, not afraid of breaking it.

"What is it?" Seeing that Nanny Qiu and Qing Ning were both frightened, Empress Xian was also very curious about what was in the box.

Without waiting for the two to answer, Empress Xian walked over to take a look.

"What a waste." Empress Xian looked at the huge box of jade artifacts.

I have to complain about Qiao Anan's rudeness and she doesn't even know how to package it better.

Then Empress Xian opened the boxes next to her and found another box of silver ingots.

"Look, Ma'am. Is it possible that Miss Qiao is afraid that I won't have enough money to spend in this palace?" Empress Xian looked at Qiao An'an who actually gave her a large box of silver, and she felt a little amused.

Why would one need to spend money in this palace?

"Your Majesty, Miss Qiao is being considerate of you! Although food and clothing in the palace don't require money, managing the servants does require money, of course," said Nanny Qiu with a smile.

Although you don’t need to spend money to buy things in the palace, doesn’t it mean that you need to spend money everywhere?

The box of silver that Qiao Anan sent contained five taels of silver, neither too big nor too small, just right for use in the palace!

"That's thoughtful of you." Empress Xian was no longer so opposed to having a daughter-in-law who was born in a merchant family.

After all, those girls from aristocratic families can't give me such a grand gift.

Besides, Empress Xian is self-aware. The things that the Qiao family sends to the emperor must be a thousand times better than what she has.

"Your Majesty, your good day has come." Aunt Qiu said with a smile.

"The Emperor has arrived!"

Suddenly, the eunuch's sharp voice was heard outside the door.

Empress Xian did not expect that the emperor would come to her Yuxiu Palace at this time.

"Your Majesty, long live your Majesty! Long live your Majesty, long live your Majesty!"

"Your servant pays homage to the Emperor. Long live His Majesty, long live His Majesty, long live His Majesty!"

"Your servant pays homage to the Emperor. Long live His Majesty, long live His Majesty, long live His Majesty!"

Concubine Xian brought all the servants from Yuxiu Palace and knelt down to welcome Emperor Chu Yuanming.

"My beloved concubine, please stand up!" Chu Yuanming smiled and stepped forward to help Concubine Xian up.

Chu Yuanming heard today that Qiao Anan had sent a lot of things to Empress Xian, so he came over curiously to see what Qiao Anan had sent to Empress Xian.

"How come the emperor is free today? Why does he come to my palace?" Empress Xian looked at the sky and was a little curious. Shouldn't the emperor be reviewing memorials in the imperial study at this time in the past?

"I heard that Miss Qiao sent a lot of good things to my beloved concubine. I came here specially to take a look." Chu Yuanming did not hide it and said with a smile.

"Your Majesty is joking." Empress Xian didn't expect that the Emperor would be interested in the things Qiao An sent.

Just thinking about those jewels, the emperor naturally has no need for them, but he can't help but feel jealous of others.

The emperor wouldn't want to give it to other concubines, right?

"I'm just curious and want to take a look." Chu Yuanming was really curious, especially when he heard that a table was also given as a gift, called a mahjong table.

He had never heard of this thing.

The main reason is that Concubine Shu just came to him to ask for the mahjong table.

He also doesn't know what a mahjong table looks like.

So he hurried over to take a closer look.

"Your Majesty, look, they are all displayed in this courtyard. Whatever you like, I will give it to you." Empress Xian said with some heartache.

Chu Yuanming glanced at the boxes in the yard, opened them out of curiosity, and took a look, but had no intention of taking them away.

When he saw the box of gold ingots, he was also stunned.

It turns out that this future daughter-in-law is afraid that she will treat Concubine Xian badly.

After looking for a long time, Chu Yuanming still didn't see the mahjong table. He also didn't know what mahjong was.
