Chapter 080: Doubts
In front of the ancestral hall, Zhou Mingshan knelt straight, her father in front of her was staring at her fiercely with the family law in his hand, and the careless grandfather was sitting on the Taishi chair next to her, waiting for Zhou Jiancheng.
Although her grandfather never left his eyes on her, Zhou Mingshan felt full of malice from him, and for no reason, she just knew.
Today is the third scene of the Spring Festival, but my father didn't go, thinking that she succeeded, but she was also discovered by her father, and she couldn't tell whether she was happy or regretful.
The father swung the purple-black leather whip and struck her on the head, and kept shouting, "Say, who told you to harm me?"
I didn't want my father to really beat her, seeing that the whip was getting closer and closer, and slowly became the hairpin in the hands of Wang Meiren, who lived in the same palace with her, she couldn't help but cover her face and shout, "Ah......"
"Girl, wake up!"
The familiar call in his ears made Zhou Mingshan subconsciously open his eyes, and when he saw the familiar cordyceps flower gauze tent on the top, Fang Chang breathed a long sigh of relief.
When he turned his head again, he found that it was already dark outside, so he asked, "What time is it?"
"It's already correct!" Su Xin frowned slightly, why did the girl start having nightmares again?
Zhou Mingshan was stunned for a moment, remembering the scene in the dream, and her heart rose again: "Where is my father?"
"I heard a word from outside come in, saying that the third master has left the house. ”
"What?" Zhou Mingshan was startled, sat up with a "whoosh", and straightened up, "Already gone?"
"Yes!" Su Xin was a little inexplicable, the third master should have ended, he was afraid that Zhou Mingshan would catch a cold, so he hurriedly dressed her.
Zhou Mingshan bit her lip and lowered her head slowly, she seemed to be a little relieved in her heart, and seemed to be a little disappointed, so she only grabbed the corners of the quilt with all her might, and held it until the joints were white.
"Oh, girl, be careful of hurting your hand!" Su Xin was helping her sort out her clothes, and when she turned around, she saw the corners of the quilt that had been crumpled, so she quickly held Zhou Mingshan's hand and gently pulled it away.
Under the guidance of Frangipani, she slowly let go of her hand, and her white jade-like delicate palm was already red.
She didn't pay attention to it, but asked tentatively: "Isn't there any other news from my father's side?"
Thinking that she was still thinking about the quarrel between the third master and the third grandmother, Su Xin carefully checked her hand and said with a smile: "Don't worry, girl, the third master still eats in the inner courtyard when he gets up early, and I heard Yu Pozi in the big kitchen say that I used a lot for breakfast." ”
Mother-in-law Yu is Hongyun's aunt, so she shouldn't be wrong.
Yesterday he was as indifferent as an enemy, why did he suddenly reconcile today?
She didn't understand, but did the father of the soothing soup find out that it was useless, or did he just put it aside?
After breakfast, Zhou Mingshan hurried to the main room, and as soon as she entered the door, she asked, "Mother, what did Dad say?" I almost tripped over the threshold, but Zang Rui quickly helped me so that I didn't fall.
"You kid, why are you always so frizzy?"
Yuan was wearing a jade-colored homely jacket, with no fat powder, and was sitting on the couch reading a book, when he saw Zhou Mingshan showing a smile.
His face didn't seem to be as pale as the previous two days, and he was a little bloody, and Zhou Mingshan put his mind at ease: "Mother, you don't have a good rest!"
Yuan smiled: "It's okay to read the book for a while, my mother knows it in her heart!" As he spoke, he touched Zhou Mingshan's hand, "Is your body good?"
Zhou Mingshan nodded, and asked again, "Isn't Dad angry?"
Yuan Shi smiled, "How can there be so much anger, just say it!"
That's right, as the saying goes, "husband and wife don't have overnight feuds", not to mention that father and mother have always had a good relationship, but ......
No, if she was really reconciled, her mother would never be what she is now, she knows her mother too well, and her father's joy and anger can completely affect her.
She had the heart to ask again, but she was afraid of making her mother even more unhappy, so she had to try not to think about those unhappy things, stroked Yuan's already bulging lower abdomen, and asked with a smile: "Is the little brother good?"
Although this child has not been lost in this life, there are still three disasters and eight disasters, and none of them have stopped. Since very early on, Zhou Mingshan has always been called "little brother", firstly, she also wants to make Yuan's family happy, and secondly, she always feels that there is still the power of gods and Buddhas in the underworld, maybe for her sake of being so pious, it is impossible to say if she really sent a male fetus.
"Well, very well-behaved, it's just that I move occasionally, it's much quieter than when you were there!" Yuan Shi also lowered his head and stroked his lower abdomen, his smile was warm, as if he had more energy than Fang Cai.
Sure enough, it is still necessary to talk about the child before the mother can be truly happy.
"Mother, this doesn't hurt me anymore if you have a little brother?" she pouted deliberately, showing some dissatisfaction.
"Oh, you bad girl, that's your brother!" the smile on Yuan's face became even more obvious, and he rubbed his fingers against her head.
The two chatted happily for a while, and seeing that Yuan's face was a little tired, Zhou Mingshan went back to his house.
After thinking about it for a while, he was still not sure, so he called Hongyun and gave a few instructions.
For the next day, Zhou Mingshan suffered some gains and losses, and even when she was talking to Yuan in the main room, she was distracted. Yuan thought she was tired, so he sent her back to rest.
It wasn't until Hongyun talked back and forth that she raised a trace of energy.
"How?"
"I asked the sisters who served in the study, and they said that they didn't see what kind of soup the third master used!" Hongyun was a little puzzled.
Where did the soup go, Frangipani obviously said that Laixing had already taken it, but for no reason, it actually disappeared?
Waving his hand to signal Hongyun to go down, Zhou Mingshan continued to rack his brains to think.
But until the end of the spring of the fifteenth year of Xianqing, she didn't come up with a clue.
Zhou Ze, the third master of the Xingyuan Marquis Mansion who participated in the examination, and his nephew Yuan Wei are about to end.
"I heard that the master is about to return home, and he has already sent a message back to let grandma prepare!"
knew that Zhou Mingshan had been worried about the relationship between her parents recently, and as soon as she got the news, she hurried over to report it.
It seems that the third master is going to reconcile with his grandmother, although it has been a long time this time, but just in time for the third master to play, there are many things to worry about, and it is normal.
Zhou Mingshan let out an "oh", not as happy as Frangipani. Ever since the last incident, she has always felt a little estranged from her father.
"Isn't the girl going to greet you?" Su Xin was a little puzzled.
Thinking that her mother still had a big belly, Zhou Mingshan was a little reluctant, but she still changed her clothes with Su Xin.
As soon as the "mother...... arrived at the gate of the main courtyard, she ran into Yuan.
followed by Aunt Luo, as well as the sixth girl Mingling and the seventh girl Mingqi, each of whom had a lot of girls.
"Fu'er, I'm about to call you!"
Xu is because he wants to see his father, Yuan's family, who has always been plain, actually applied a thin layer of fat powder today, and her big eyes were filled with a look rarely seen on weekdays, and she was dressed in roses, purple and pink gold gowns all over the place, which made her energetic.
Zhou Mingshan lowered her eyes slightly, raised her head again and smiled: "It took some time to dress up, mother, I will help you!"
Yuan looked her up and down, nodded with satisfaction, and then Zhou Mingshan and Zang Rui helped her to go to the second gate.
Almost after a cup of tea, the third master Zhou Zefang appeared in everyone's sight.
