The Regent's Tender Darling

Chapter 114 Generous donation

Seeing the relieved look on Xuemei's face, Lin Jiaojiao lowered her eyes thoughtfully, then seemed to think of something and asked, "What happened?"

Xuemei shook her head: "It's nothing. It's said that Princess Duan fell down by herself. I heard that Concubine Zhao also helped to call for help."

"Zhao Shuang'er is also here?" she asked.

"Hmm..." Xuemei hesitated for a while and said: "I don't know, I have heard about it. For this matter, the Taiwei's wife personally went to the palace to visit."

She didn't pay much attention to this, after all, it was not an important matter.

"Xuemei, do you think I can find an excuse to hold a banquet at the palace?" she said suddenly.

Xuemei was stunned after hearing this, and frowned: "My Lady, do you want to hold a banquet?"

"Yeah." She nodded.

Every family holds a banquet for a purpose. Although it is a celebration, people have their own thoughts. Some aristocratic families want to find a good marriage for their children, but most of them are for profit and power.

And she, like ordinary people, wants to give the two sisters of the Lin family a good marriage, but she is not in a hurry, and some things have not yet been completed.

"It's the twelfth lunar month of winter. If it's not something important, I'm afraid no one will be willing to go out and walk around. It's better to wait until spring to hold a flower-viewing banquet and poetry party or something."

Xuemei was talking eloquently, and then she seemed to think of something again, and said: "My queen, if you want to have fun, you might as well invite a few sisters who are good friends with you to get together."

As soon as she heard the words, she sighed helplessly. When she was not married, she was the only sister she had a good relationship with, and the entire female family in the capital disdained to be friends with her.

This was different after getting married. It seemed that all the female relatives in the capital wanted to be friends with her. These days, the palace had blocked many visiting posts for her. Qingtao had told her about this.

One of the posts was difficult to block, that of Princess Qi. She also agreed, and Princess Qi would come to visit her tomorrow.

This designation was not Princess Qi's idea, but King Qi's. Its purpose was just to win over her, the Princess Regent, so that she could win over the Prince Regent.

"No rush, let's wait until spring starts." After saying that, he closed his eyes lazily.

Seeing this, Xuemei didn't bother much. After getting up, she carefully put the embroidery stool back to its original place, and then exited the dormitory.

After going out, I found Dongqing and Qin Zhi talking in the corner of the yard, acting secretly like thieves.

Curious for a moment, he quietly walked slowly to look, only to find that Qin Zhi was holding a large sum of money in his hand.

And Holly held an empty purse in her hand.

"Hey! What are you doing?" She suddenly patted Dongqing's shoulder.

In an instant, the two of them were so frightened that Qin Zhi almost shook off the money.

Seeing that it was Xuemei, the two of them quickly obeyed: "Sister Xuemei."

"What are you fussing about?" she asked casually.

Seeing her staring at the money bag, Qin Zhi quickly explained: "Sister Xuemei, I asked Dongqing to borrow money. My mother is seriously ill and needs money urgently."

"Is your mother sick?" After repeating this sentence, she also took out her purse from her sleeve pocket, handed it to Qin Zhi and said, "You can't delay your illness, take it for treatment."

This purse is the monthly payment she just received a few days ago, not only from the accountant, but also from the empress, totaling twenty taels of silver.

For her, it doesn't matter whether she says too much or too little. After all, it doesn't cost much to follow her master. In addition, her mother also died of illness and her father is missing. There is no one above or below. The little girl has enough money saved now to last her for the rest of her life.

"Sister Xuemei, this...this can't be done." Qin Zhi did not dare to accept Xuemei's generous donation.

This was too much, and she couldn't afford to repay it. Although her mother still needed more money to treat her illness, but... she really couldn't afford too much debt.
