Chapter 528 - 274: Adding to the Dowry_3
Sister Hu bent her knees slightly again and said, "Yes." She had already noticed that the actual head of this family was the young lady before her.
Blue Bead then handed another embroidered pouch to Sister Hu. The pouch given as a reward to someone like Sister Hu contained six one-tael small silver ingots, not the small silver ingots given to servants.
A few people went together to the main compound, and Qian Sangui was also helped to the hall, where Pan Yue naturally shared a few words of her longing for her husband.
The meal was very quiet and harmonious, as Old man Qian and Old woman Qian were not present. Ever since they found out that Pan Yue was the granddaughter of the Empress Dowager, they had not dared to share a table with her. Moreover, they tried to avoid meeting her as much as possible, for they had not forgotten how they used to bully her.
In the afternoon, Qian Yixiu figured that Pan Yue should have finished her noon rest and went to Xiyue Pavilion. The courtyard of Xiyue Pavilion was very large, with many precious chrysanthemums on display. At this time, the chrysanthemums were blooming brilliantly, a riot of purples and reds, exuding a rich fragrance.
Many birds were hanging under the eaves around, chirping and singing. Especially the Myiophoneus that had been brought from the countryside, which thickly called out, "Yueyue, Yueyue, to hold your hand and to grow old with you... fight, fight, I want to fight..."
Upon hearing the bird’s nonsense again, Manjiang got up angrily and threw a corn kernel at its head. It then said in a thin voice, "Brother Jiang, Brother Jiang, Brother Jiang, ah, thinking of you every day but not seeing you..."
When she heard it say that, Manjiang could not bring herself to scold it again.
As she was feeling conflicted, Yixiu entered the room.
