Chapter 297: Marriage Offer
It was indeed the first time that everyone heard the word glass. It was only one letter different from colored glaze, but they were completely different!
"Arong, can I take a look?"
Mo Ying's eyes did not blink, and she was very eager to reach out and touch it.
"Sure!"
Pei Shaorong said, and she reached out and gently picked up a cup from the brocade box.
The cup was slightly larger than an ordinary ceramic teacup, but it also looked small and delicate in the palm of the hand. Looking at the window, the sunlight seemed to be dancing on the cup, sparkling, or colorful light, very charming.
Mo Ying was so fond of it that she wanted to snatch it back!
She looked at Xu Muhua with resentment in her eyes: "Muhua, you are too partial. You prepared such a set for Arong, but what should we do? We are watching helplessly, but there is no one. You are too cruel!"
Lu Yingzhu was also very greedy.
Which girl doesn't like beautiful things!
And this set of glass tea set is probably the first of its kind in Beijing!
"Yes, it really spoils us. It seems that we have to come to Arong's place for tea more often in the future."
Sun Xuehe suddenly asked in a low voice: "Muhua, where did you buy this set of tea set? Can you tell us? I want to buy a set too."
"Oh, yes, if we know where to buy it, we can buy a set ourselves, and we don't have to spoil Arong!"
Everyone looked at Xu Muhua expectantly.
Xu Muhua spread his hands and said helplessly: "I asked a foreign businessman to buy this in another country. It's just this set."
Several people were stunned for a moment, while Pei Shaorong was deeply moved.
"Foreign businessman? How come Muhua knows foreign businessmen?"
Sun Xuehe asked curiously.
Xu Muhua looked at her, smiled mysteriously, and lowered his voice: "There is a very special place in our capital city where you can get some information. Have you heard about this?"
Several people looked at each other. Pei Shaorong looked at the crystal clear cups in her hands, and her heart moved, "You mean, you found a foreign businessman through that place, and then bought this set of glass tea sets?"
Xu Muhua snapped her fingers, "That's right! I have been thinking about what gift to give to Arong when she comes of age. Arong and I have such a good relationship, the gift must be different. I wandered around the capital and didn't see anything I liked. Later, when I heard those things, I just went to find them."
Hehehe, she is such a competent boss! She didn't forget to promote her own store at this time!
When this was mentioned, everyone's attention was diverted at once.
"Muhua, is that store called Bai Xiaosheng really that great?"
"Yeah, I've heard about this store. It sounds mysterious and seems to be exaggerated."
Mo Ying said.
Xu Muhua's mouth twitched.
It's really not exaggerated, it's real achievements! There is no falsehood at all!
"How can this be exaggerated? If it's fake, those wives of officials would go to them for help? If they were cheating, they would have been sent to the government long ago."
When she said this, everyone thought of what they had heard and agreed with her.
It is said that at first it was just ordinary people, and later some high-ranking officials also went to Bai Xiaosheng for help to investigate things. At least so far, no one has heard of anyone looking for them to settle accounts.
Proof that they really helped people get things done.
So, are the rumors about Bai Xiaosheng true? As long as you can afford the money, Bai Xiaosheng can help you find out all the information you want to know? Is it really that magical?
For a while, no one spoke, with strange lights flashing in their eyes, and no one knew what each other was thinking.
Only Xu Muhua smiled, "So, if you encounter any problems that you can't solve in the future, you can go there and try!"
Pei Shaorong came back to her senses first, and carefully put the glass cups back into the brocade box, "If there is a chance in the future, I would like to see if Bai Xiaosheng is really as the rumors say."
"Muhua, thank you for your kindness, I like it very much!"
"As long as you like it! When giving gifts, the most important thing is that the recipient likes it."
The time was almost up, and several girls watched Pei Shaorong dress up before going to the hall together to watch the ceremony.
This was Xu Muhua's first time to participate in the ancient women's coming-of-age ceremony. She knew that in ancient times, the coming-of-age ceremony was a very important thing for a woman, and there were very strict requirements.
Knowing is one thing, and seeing it with your own eyes is another.
After watching it all, she felt tired and dazzled. Thinking that she would soon have to go through the same thing, she felt a little tingling on her scalp. She was secretly glad that the sponsor finally let the third princess do it. She
didn't let out a sigh of relief until she heard the ceremony was completed.
Just as everyone was surrounding Madam Pei to congratulate her, a somewhat excited voice came in.
"Old Master, Master, Madam, Madam, someone is coming from the palace!"
Xu Muhua nodded secretly after hearing the servant's report.
It seems that the plot in the book has not changed because of her arrival, and what is supposed to come has still come.
The many guests were not too surprised or surprised. After all, everyone knew that Master Pei was highly respected in the court, and this Lord Pei was also highly regarded by the emperor. The legitimate daughter of the Pei family came of age today, and it didn't seem to be something worth being surprised about for the palace to show some expression.
But after everyone knelt down and listened to the imperial edict, they were all dumbfounded.
It turned out to be an imperial edict of marriage! The marriage between the eldest
daughter of Pei's family and the fifth prince Zhao Chengye!
After hearing this imperial edict, they immediately guessed what it was. For a moment, their hearts were full of envy and jealousy!
At this time, the marriage of the granddaughter of Pei Taifu to the fifth prince as the principal wife, the meaning is self-evident!
Pei Shaorong was stunned, and was gently pushed by Mrs. Pei beside her before she came to her senses. She quickly raised her hands to thank the emperor: "I, a commoner, thank the emperor for his grace."
The eunuch who announced the edict smiled and said, "Miss Pei can no longer be called a commoner in the future. This is a marriage. You are the principal wife of the fifth prince and the emperor's daughter-in-law!"
One foot has already stepped into the royal family, it's a done deal.
Miss Pei, good fortune is yet to come!
Now she is the consort of the fifth prince, and in the future... it cannot be said, it cannot be said! Anyway, if nothing unexpected happens, she will have to curry favor with him in the future!
Pei Shaorong blushed at the right time and said in a low voice: "Shaorong dare not."
One day before marriage, one cannot violate the rules. Not to mention that it concerns the royal family.
The nanny beside Mrs. Pei stuffed a bulging purse to the eunuch who delivered the decree. The eunuch did not dare to weigh it, but as soon as he took it in his hand, he knew how much silver was in the purse, and the smile on his face became more enthusiastic.
After a few words of congratulations, the person who announced the decree went back to the palace.
