The Love of Passerby A

Chapter 741 The best friend of the reborn daughter of the Duke's Mansion ()

The old butler felt complicated when he saw his young master's unhappy face.

On the one hand, he was very pleased because the young master seemed to have finally come to his senses and knew how to use fabrics to please the little girl;

On the other hand, he felt a little embarrassed.

Although the Zhou family is wealthy, they have never been particular about food, clothing, housing and transportation.

The young master usually wore plain linen clothes and only changed into formal clothes when he entered the palace to meet the emperor.

Therefore, the shop where the family purchases fabrics does not sell that kind of high-priced fabrics at all. After all, the kind of fabric that the young master mentioned cannot be bought here.

The old butler carefully told the young master this fact, thinking that he might feel embarrassed.

However, what he didn't expect was that Zhou Tianyu not only didn't feel the slightest bit of shame, but instead asked: "Then tell me, where do those young ladies from official families in the capital usually buy their fabrics?

I have to go buy one for that little girl. Didn't you see how sad she looks today?"

After hearing this, the old housekeeper quickly replied: "Master, you must first know where this girl comes from! Only then can we choose the right material according to her family's situation."

"Oh! She is the third prince's fiancée!" Zhou Tianyu revealed Su Xiangran's identity very naturally, his tone was very flat, as if he was just talking about tomorrow's weather with the old butler.

The old butler was shocked: What should we do? The young master actually "fell in love" with the prince's fiancée.

"Master, isn't it inappropriate to give fabric to someone else's fiancée?" The old butler felt that he should say this.

"If the Third Prince doesn't send it himself, does that mean he doesn't allow others to send it?" Zhou Tianyu said dissatisfiedly, "Why is there so much trouble when it comes to sending a piece of cloth? Just send someone from the store to deliver it, and don't mention who sent it."

Is the young master planning to do good deeds without leaving a name? The old housekeeper was puzzled. Is this considered enlightenment?

Without caring about the old housekeeper's mood at all, Zhou Tianyu asked about the shops selling high-end fabrics and planned to go there on his day off to pick out more for the little girl from the Su family.

When you are in your prime, you should dress brightly.

Zhou Tianyu only thought about making the little girl happy, but he didn't care about her feelings at all.

The third prince has not yet set up his own residence and is currently living in the palace.

Concubine Jing had just woken up from her lunch break when she heard that her son had been sent back by Zhou Tianyu. She was very confused.

Holding the portion of soup sent by the imperial kitchen in her hand and looking at her son sitting below her, she felt indescribably depressed.

"Why did you let the Zhou family send him back today?" Concubine Jing was a little dissatisfied, "Although your father looks at him differently, he has no power in the court, so there is really no intention to make friends with him.

Besides, your eldest brother has a good relationship with him. If you contact him rashly like this, it will probably arouse suspicion."

Zhao Jiaheng was actually very depressed. He was going to come over to see his mother after returning to the palace, but for some reason he had a little smell from the carriage on his body, so he could only come over after taking a bath and changing his clothes.

"It's not that I wanted to take his car back." Zhao Jiaheng said helplessly, "When I went out today, Su Xiangran and I ran into..."

Zhao Jiaheng told Concubine Jing in detail what happened on the outing today.

Finally, he took out the robe that Yin Caiwei "lost" in his carriage and handed it to his mother.

It turned out that not long after he returned to the palace, Zhao Jiaheng's eunuch found this handkerchief when he was tidying up the carriage.

The eunuch did not say anything and immediately handed the handkerchief to his master Zhao Jiaheng.

Looking at the word "薇" on the robe, his first reaction was: How could the other party have lost it on purpose? It was clearly the other party's love for him.

Concubine Jing put down the soup in her hand, looked at the handkerchief in her hand, and said with a smile: "My son, don't underestimate this thing. It is made of snow gauze brocade brought into the palace. It is very valuable and is not something that can be thrown away casually."

"Yes! I think so too." Zhao Jiaheng touched his chin with some pride, "This handkerchief with the name embroidered on it can be used as a token of love in the storybooks!"

"If you can really marry the daughter of Duke Xing as your principal wife, it would be a great thing." Concubine Jing said with a smile, "But now is not the right time. Your elder brother and second brother are in a stable position, and you have no power at all. It is not a good idea to make your intentions clear now!

And you still have the Su family's marriage on your mind. Miss Su is about to turn fifteen, and the Ministry of Rites will report to the Imperial Astronomical Observatory to set an auspicious date. This is going to be difficult!"

"But mother, we can't stay hidden behind the scenes forever!" Zhao Jiaheng sighed softly, "If I continue to be unknown, who among the ministers in the court will know that I, the third prince, am actually very talented!"

"Then I'll go find the wife of Duke Xing first to find out whether it's the elders' intention or the younger generation's own intention?" Concubine Jing clenched the handkerchief in her hand. "Each monkey has a different way of tying it. The target is different, so the means to be used are also different."
