Chapter 851: What's yours is mine, and what's mine is still mine
The Empress Dowager was naturally very happy when she learned that her grandson was returning to Beijing with her.
In the following days, Tangbao became busy.
She was busy making clothes, shoes and socks for Xuanyuan Jin, and embroidering sachets and purses.
"Brother, I've left some extra space in these two sets of undergarments. If they become too short after a few months, I'll have the embroiderer unsew the sleeves and trouser legs and resew them... Also, the same goes for these two sets of casual clothes. After unsewed, I'll embroider cloud patterns on the cuffs and hems to cover them up to avoid markings... Oh, and I put some spices I mixed myself in this sachet. They have a light and elegant scent and can also detoxify..."
Tang Bao kept talking and showing Xuanyuan Jin the things one by one.
Finally, she said with some regret: "I originally wanted to use the flying needle technique to embroider another set of outer robes for you to wear when you go to the palace to pay homage to the emperor uncle, but I'm afraid I won't be able to make it in time. I can only wait and see."
When the young man entered the palace, he should have dressed more luxuriously to appear more respectable, so as not to be looked down upon.
She's not bragging, the clothes she embroiders are absolutely high-end!
Unfortunately, it would take her some time to embroider a set of clothes, and she really couldn't finish it in time.
Xuanyuan Jin felt warm in his heart as he listened to the little girl's explanations.
But when I saw that Tangbao's tender little face seemed to have lost its moisture and she looked tired, I couldn't help but feel very distressed.
"Why do so much? I'm not without clothes to wear!" Xuanyuan Jin frowned and said, "Are those embroiderers just eating for free? Do you really have to do it yourself?"
Tang Bao rolled her eyes at Xuanyuan Jin.
"That's easy to say! Would you wear something made by someone else?"
By the way, ever since Tang Bao practiced a few years ago and, on a whim, sewed the first set of undergarments for Xuanyuan Jin, Xuanyuan Jin no longer likes to wear clothes made by others.
If Wang Zhong hadn't said with a sad face later that his young master's undershirt had become a vest and shorts, but he still kept wearing it, and asked Tang Bao to make a few more sets for his young master, Tang Bao would not have known about this.
Therefore, in the past two years, Xuanyuan Jin's inner clothes and daily clothes at home were mostly sewn by Tang Bao.
Fortunately, these do not require any embroidery patterns. Just cut and sew them, which does not take much effort.
However, the outer robe you wear when going out is different, as it takes time and effort.
Whether to do it or not depends entirely on Tang Bao’s mood.
Anyway, in her opinion, the little brother cannot go out without wearing an outer robe.
After listening to Tang Bao's question, Xuanyuan Jin touched his nose and changed the subject.
"I'll leave Li Er and the others at your disposal. If there's anything you need, just tell them to do it. I'll also leave Aunt Fatty with you. Ask her to cook whatever you want. After I leave, everyone in this house will obey your orders. Also—"
Xuanyuan Jin paused here and pointed to the secret compartment behind him.
He added, "There are some banknotes and gold in here, you can spend them as you like..."
"Brother, you won't leave all your wealth to me, will you?" Tang Bao said with a smile, "Aren't you afraid that I will secretly move the money you saved and take it for myself?"
Xuanyuan Jin reached out and flicked Tang Bao's forehead, saying unhappily, "What's the difference between my money and yours? When haven't you always been free to spend it as you please?"
Tang Bao thought about it and it seemed so.
The little brother had even told me where he hid the silver, but——
"Of course there is a difference!" Tang Bao said seriously: "My money is my money, your money——"
Tang Bao smiled.
He glanced at the secret compartment.
I really want to say - it can become my money at any time.
Xuanyuan Jin saw through Tang Bao's little thoughts at a glance, and couldn't help but feel angry and amused.
"You little ungrateful bastard!" Xuanyuan Jin said, his tone full of indulgence.
Tang Bao giggled.
Forget it, since the little brother is so good to me, why not... try to make a robe.
Although it would be impossible to make the robe before the young man leaves, it is not a bad idea to make it while he is on the road and then have someone send it to him as soon as possible.
Clothes make the man, gold makes the Buddha.
No matter how good a boy looks, he still needs clothes to complement him to look more noble, right?
Here, Tang Bao was planning to sew an outer robe for Xuanyuan Jin, but Princess Huaning was holding the sewn outer robe and looked at Su Laowu shyly.
"I've never made clothes for men, and my embroidery skills aren't as good as Sister Fuya's. If you find it ugly, then..."
"How is it?" Su Laowu asked with a smile.
Princess Huaning was about to say "keep it for the bottom of the box", but after hearing what Su Laowu said, she immediately changed her mind.
"You have to wear it no matter how ugly it looks!" Princess Huaning raised her chin and glared at Su Laowu coquettishly. "If you don't wear the clothes I made myself, I will never make clothes for you again in this life!"
“Hehehe…”
Su Laowu couldn't help laughing.
Then, he reached out and took the clothes, smiling and said, "I obey your command, Your Highness. Don't worry, even if the sleeves of this dress are one long and one short, and the stitching is as thick as hemp rope, I will definitely wear it when I go out to visit friends, relatives and entertain guests."
"Who told you to wear it when you go out to visit friends? You don't want to be laughed at." Princess Huaning said anxiously, "It's not good. Just wear it occasionally at home."
After saying that, he reacted.
"No! The sleeves of the clothes I make won't be one long and one short! I measured them specifically, and they're the same length! I..."
Princess Huaning paused.
Because Su Laowu stretched out his fingers and covered her face with the veil.
A pair of black eyes seemed to contain unfathomable affection.
"Wait for me!"
There was a strong sense of reluctance and determination in the deep and mellow voice.
Wait for me to marry you!
Princess Huaning's eyes immediately turned red.
However, when Su Laowu wanted to take off her veil, he suddenly took a step back and pressed the veil with his hand.
"No, I won't show it to you!" Princess Huaning said with some stammering.
After saying that, he felt that his refusal was too abrupt, and hurriedly explained: "It's not completely healed yet. Although acupuncture is no longer needed, Sister Fu Ya said that I still need to apply the ointment for a few more days."
Although the scars are almost invisible now, for a woman, who doesn’t want to look her most beautiful in front of the person she loves?
I don't want anyone to see even the slightest flaw on my face.
Su Laowu looked at Princess Huaning helplessly.
He had even seen her when she was covered with red spots, so he really didn't understand what she minded now?
However, Princess Huaning did mind.
The past is the past, and the present is the present.
She had no one in her heart before, but now she has someone in her heart.
In the past, she could remain calm and remind herself not to care about other people's opinions.
Now the only thing she couldn't stand was that in his eyes, she was even the slightest bit imperfect.
"Don't worry, I won't let other men see me like this before you." Princess Huaning said, "I will keep the veil on until you can take it off yourself."
When Princess Huaning finished speaking, her voice was as soft as a mosquito and her face was flushed with shame.
After hearing what Princess Huaning said, Su Laowu immediately felt fulfilled.
Moreover, just thinking about such a scene makes me excited!
