Chapter 433 Worry
"Yuhe, switch sides." Chunyue said.
After finishing speaking, Yuhe didn't move. When Chunyue saw it, she saw that Yuhe was in a trance.
Chunyue put down the golden bucket, walked over, and waved her hand in front of Yuhe's eyes.
Yuhe was startled, came back to her senses, and said, "What happened to Sister Chunyue?"
Chunyue understood what she meant, and said angrily, "What's wrong? I called you just now, but you didn't respond. Do you have something on your mind?"
"No, what can I have on my mind." Yu He shook her head hastily.
Chunyue said: "Since there is no one, please iron the son's clothes first."
Yuhe nodded, and he and Chunyue got busy.
After ironing the clothes and putting them away, Chunyue pulled Yuhe to sit down and said, "Tell me, what's on your mind?"
Yuhe hesitated, but finally shook her head and said, "Sister Chunyue, I just said that I have nothing on my mind."
"You are thinking about your son." Chunyue said.
There was a blush on Yuhe's face, she didn't dare to admit it, she quickly denied it: "No."
"Really?" Chunyue teased.
Yu He sighed and said, "Sister, the son is going to get married in a few months, don't you worry about it?"
"Worried?" Chunyue was taken aback, and asked, "What are you worried about?"
"My lord treats us very well, but can the princess tolerate us?" Yu He said with some concern.
As Lin Xuan's marriage was approaching, the servants in the family also began to discuss it.
Yuhe didn't think about it that much at first, but just now she heard other people's comments that the princess will definitely bring many maids here when she gets married.
The maids in the palace are much better than them in serving people.
Chunyue comforted: "Young Master said, Princess Changle treats people generously and will not tolerate us."
"However, Lord Hou was impeached because he didn't have my body deed. I caused such a lot of trouble to Lord Hou. If the princess knows about it, she will definitely blame me." Yuhe said.
To put it bluntly, they are just Lin Xuan's maids.
The law of the Tang Dynasty stipulated: "A concubine should marry a lover."
Slaves belong to the lowest class of "untouchables", and it is impossible for them to be concubines.
The law stipulates that those who take concubines and Hakka women as wives and maidservants as concubines will be punished for one and a half years.
It means that if the wife dies or divorces, she can remarry, but she cannot take a concubine as a wife.
Nor can you take a maidservant as a concubine.
In history, Li Zhi's desire to abolish Wang Liwu was opposed by so many people, and this is also the reason.
The emperor's concubine, no matter what rank, except for the queen, the others are actually concubines.
Li Zhi wanted to make Wu Zetian the queen, that is, replace his wife with a concubine, so he would naturally be opposed.
If Lin Xuan wants to accept them as concubines, he must first obtain the approval of the government and "release them", so that they can be regarded as civilians before they can be accepted as concubines.
After Lin Xuan and Princess Changle get married, Princess Changle will be in charge of the family, and their personal deeds will be in charge of Princess Changle.
Even if Lin Xuan wants to take them as concubines, he still needs Princess Changle's approval.
Therefore, Yuhe will worry about gains and losses.
Chunyue said seriously: "Yuhe, we are just the young master's maids, don't think about things we shouldn't."
She figured it out, and Yu He had moved her thoughts that she shouldn't have.
Although Yuhe just wanted to become a concubine, in Chunyue's view, it was still something she shouldn't have.
Yu He was taken aback, and asked: "Sister, haven't you thought about being a concubine for the young master?"
Chunyue shook her head and said, "No, our status is low, and it is already a great gift to be sympathized with by the young master. How can we ask for more?"
Yuhe thought that if she hadn't met Lin Xuan, she might have been sold to a brothel.
Thinking of this, Yuhe nodded and said: "My sister is right, I understand, and I won't think about it in the future."
"Don't think about anything?" Lin Xuan walked in and asked.
As soon as he entered the room, he heard Yu He say that he would not think about it, so he was a little curious.
Chunyue and Yuhe quickly stood up and saluted.
Lin Xuan waved his hand and asked, "What were you talking about just now? Why don't you think about it?"
Chunyue and Yuhe said with some embarrassment: "Master Hui, it's nothing."
Seeing that they were unwilling to speak, Lin Xuan didn't continue to ask, and said, "Winter hunting will be coming soon, please help me make something."
"It's what you're told," Chunyue replied.
Lin Xuan described the gloves to the two of them.
Because of the cotton coat, I didn't feel particularly cold when riding a horse just now, but my hands were a little cold, so Lin Xuan thought of gloves.
"Don't put too much white paper inside, try to make it as thin as possible." Lin Xuan said.
Gloves are not complicated, Chunyue and Yuhe quickly understood.
"My lord, how much do you need?" Chunyue asked.
Lin Xuan thought for a while and said, "Let's make ten pairs first."
When Cheng Chumo and the others saw it, they would definitely ask him for it, so Lin Xuan asked them to do more.

Su Guogong Mansion
At the gate, Cheng Yaojin glared at Cheng Chumo, and said, "Be more honest with me later."
"Father, I understand, but you have to save me some face." Cheng Chumo said.
Cheng Yaojin looked ahead and ignored it.
A group of people approached, Cheng Yaojin saw the appearance of the person in front, and reminded: "Here we come."
Cheng Chumo looked up, and the first person was a man in his 40s.
"This should be Yan'er's father." Thinking of this, Cheng Chumo became a little nervous.
Jiang Yunsheng dismounted, walked quickly to Cheng Yaojin, and bowed: "See you, General!"
"Haha, Yunsheng will be a family from now on, so you don't have to be so polite." Cheng Yaojin helped Jiang Yunsheng up.
Jiang Yunsheng said seriously: "Without the general, I wouldn't be where I am today."
Back then on the battlefield, if Cheng Yaojin hadn't saved his life, he would have died long ago.
Cheng Yaojin said displeased: "Today we are here to talk about the marriage of our children. You keep talking about these old things, do you want others to think that I, Cheng Yaojin, is threatening to repay your kindness?"
"Yunsheng has no such intention." Jiang Yunsheng said hastily.
"It's fine if you don't have one. Don't say any more words of thanks." Cheng Yaojin said.
"Father, Uncle Jiang, let's go in first." Cheng Chumo reminded.
"Yes, yes, let's talk first." Cheng Yaojin said.
"I brought some special products to the general from Sichuan, which are not worth much." Jiang Yunsheng pointed to a carriage full of goods behind him.
"We will be in-laws from now on, there is no reason for the woman to give the man a gift." Cheng Yaojin said displeased.
He was very happy with Jiang Yunsheng's attitude.
Although Jiang Yunsheng had been guarding the border in Sichuan these years, people would still send gifts over every year during the Chinese New Year.
Normally, he wouldn't refuse at all, so he would accept it directly, but now that the two families are married, it is naturally difficult for him to accept it.
Jiang Yunsheng said, "General, this is the last time."
Cheng Yaojin nodded and said, "Forget it this time, and I don't want to send it to me later."
Cheng Yaojin thought about it and accepted it, otherwise Jiang Yunsheng would not look good.
When the time comes for the dowry, just add some more.
Jiang Yunsheng looked at Cheng Chumo and said, "This is Chumo. The last time I saw him was five years ago. I didn't expect him to be this old."
Cheng Chumo bowed and said, "I met Uncle Jiang."
Jiang Yunsheng nodded in satisfaction and said, "You don't need to be too polite."
Cheng Yaojin said: "Let's go in first."
When he came to the hall of Cheng's house, Cheng Yaojin ignored Jiang Yunsheng's objection and pulled Jiang Yunsheng to sit beside him.
The maid brought tea and retreated.
Jiang Yunsheng heard the fragrance of tea, and asked, "Is this the legendary Longjing? I've heard it before. The tea has an unusual fragrance, and it's true."
