Aunt Luo thought that if Mrs. Lin could really get along, it would be the best, and if not, it would be good for Sister Zhou Mingling to meet these ladies and wives in the capital more.

But I didn't expect that the youngest daughter was too smart, she understood as soon as she said it, although she followed, but she chose to be a quail;

The seventh girl, Zhou Mingqi, has ideas and ideas, but she is also high-spirited, she doesn't want to be this ready-made stepmother, but she doesn't know how many people kneel and lick and want to go!

Aunt Luo sighed again!

She looked in the direction of the main room, and her heart began to feel uneasy again.

I don't know if it was right or wrong to impulsively bring my little cousin to the house last year?

The marriage of the two daughters is also a big stone in her heart, Yuan's health is not good, and now she only cares about the fourth girl, Zhou Mingshan, and the sixth and seventh girls are not ranked at all.

When she thought of these things, her heart was as hard as frying.

After settling down, Aunt Luo still decided to go to the main room more diligently these days, and finally reminded the third grandmother not to forget the sixth and seventh girls.

After a year, there is a happy event in the third room, although it is not that the third grandmother is pregnant, but for the third master who is over thirty years old and still has no children, it must be a great happy event.

Yuan immediately reported the good news to Mrs. Hou's Yang.

Then all the rooms also received the news and sent congratulatory gifts.

Nominally, this child is also Yuan's, not to mention that Yuan's can no longer have children, so the people who are active are already starting to rethink the situation of the third room, if the green pothos really gave birth to a son, with her relationship with Aunt Luo, then Aunt Luo and their future will be terrible!

Will the east wind prevail over the west wind or will the west wind prevail over the east wind?

There are different opinions in the Hou Mansion......

Aunt Luo took the pothos to the main house to listen to the idle house and kowtow......

The third grandmother moved the pothos from Aunt Luo's side courtyard to the main house, and sent four more girls to serve her, and promised that once the pothos could give birth to a son, she would be mentioned as an aunt......

Aunt Luo won the reward of the third grandmother for her meritorious service......

It seems that the confrontation that everyone expected did not appear at all, and everyone thought of the soft nature of the third grandmother for ten years, and it was a little clear.

Some good people are still sighing in private, it seems that this scene in the third room can't be sung for the time being......

Hongyun couldn't help but pass on these messy news to Zhou Mingshan.

But Zhou Mingshan turned a deaf ear and only focused on the big characters in front of him.

One horizontal, one skimming, one point, one pinch...... After a few words, a thin sweat appeared on his body.

She looked up at the window.

The green trees are spreading their branches, the sun is shining, the warm wind is blowing Buddha, and the footsteps of summer are approaching!

Ming'er is the eighth day of the fourth month, but the "Prajna Sutra" is still a little bit close.

Thinking of this, Zhou Mingshan asked Luyun to pack it up and start copying.

Just after writing for a while, Qibao's cheerful voice came from outside, "Girl, the second cousin young master is here!"

Zhou Mingshan shook his hand, and the ink dipped in Fang dripped on the snow-white rice paper, dyeing a large ink ball.

"Oops!"

Lu Yun, who was serving next to him, was very anxious, and subconsciously wanted to take a handkerchief to rub it, but was stopped by Zhou Mingshan.

"Forget it, you go clean up!"

Two more lines of this page have been copied, and now it is stained with ink and can only be invalidated.

Luyun was very distressed, she didn't know Zhou Mingshan's thoughts, but she felt hard when she wrote and copied scriptures every day. She carefully picked up the piece of paper and put it in the basket where the waste paper was placed.

Zhou Mingshan cleaned his hands, smeared jasmine alabaster under the service of Ning Yan, and just walked outside, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door.

Qibao was so attentive that he opened the curtain, "Second Young Master, please!"

This is the second time Zhou Mingshan has met Yuan Zheng this year.

The last time she came back from Longfu Temple, she hurriedly saluted and retreated, and she didn't look carefully at all.

He has grown taller again, and he seems to be taller than his eldest cousin Yuan Wei, and he looks thinner than in the old years.

Zhou Mingshan took a rough look, and before he could see his eyes, he blessed, "Second cousin An!"

Yuan Zheng's voice seemed to be a little hoarse, and he waved his hand in a panic, "Why is my cousin so polite?"

Zhou Mingshan got up and looked up and met his eyes.

Joy, grief, helplessness, grievance, doubt, and even some trepidation.

was different from what Zhou Mingshan expected, she thought that what she saw must be a second cousin who was surprised and excited.

For some reason, she actually felt relieved in her heart.

The faint ease in her heart obviously told her that she was more happy to see such a second cousin.

Zhou Mingshan didn't dare to think about it, so she quickly gave up her seat.

After Qibao served tea, the people who served in the house also automatically retreated to the door, and through the curtain, you could faintly see the lifelike spring flower embroidery patterns on the new shoes of the incense.

It was dui xiang who bought the material and embroidered it by himself, and it is said that he also made a pair for Mama An.

Originally, I also wanted to make a pair for Zhou Mingshan, but later I felt that my skills were not up to par, so I still asked Ning Yan.

Zhou Mingshan didn't know how she could think of this at this time.

She turned her head slightly and glanced at Yuan Zheng out of the corner of her eye.

Dressed in a stone blue robe, the white and clean collar made his jade-like face even more handsome.

At this moment, Yuan Zheng was looking down at the teacup in his hand, not saying a word, not knowing what he was thinking.

Zhou Mingshan picked up the teacup and took a sip gently, then put the teacup on the teatray again, using a little strength.

"Ding ......" The crisp sound of porcelain colliding seemed to alarm Yuan Zheng, and he raised his head to look this way.

Zhou Mingshan thought about it, but decided to ask directly: "What is the second cousin thinking?"

Yuan Zheng's handsome face was dyed with a touch of red, and he seemed a little embarrassed, "I, I didn't think about anything...... It's just that I'm thinking-thinking--there is an article that doesn't-no-figured it out......"

Didn't tell the truth.

Zhou Mingshan was a little worried, said "um" softly, and picked up the teacup again.

Yuan Zheng's face turned even redder when he saw this, and he actually stood up directly from the chair, walked up to Zhou Mingshan in a few steps, and bowed down, "Cousin, don't be angry, I know that I was sorry for you in the first place, don't worry, I will definitely ...... in the future ...... by all means."

Zhou Mingshan quickly stood up sideways and hid aside.

Yuan Zheng also realized that his actions were a bit overstepping, but he didn't know how to remedy it for a while, so he just looked at Zhou Mingshan in a daze.

The warmth and freedom of the past disappeared completely, and his face was covered with sweat, and the anxiety in his eyes seemed to burn......

Zhou Mingshan pursed her lips, and the depression in her heart seemed to slowly dissipate unconsciously.

No matter what, she still has to live with the person in front of her in the future, she doesn't want to guess, and she doesn't want to play tricks all day long, so it's easier to be straightforward.

"I see!" she replied in a low voice.

Yuan Zheng's eyes widened when he heard this, staring at Zhou Mingshan tightly, his face also showed ecstasy, and his speech was a little incoherent.

"Thank you cousin, thank you, thank you......"

This is Yuan Zheng!

Zhou Mingshan sighed secretly, not knowing whether he was happy or lost!

Sending Yuan Zheng away, Qibao happily put his things on the table in the hall.

There are fashionable dolls outside, Daoxiangzhai Zhou Mingshan's favorite dim sum, a few travelogues, and a few big kites.

"The second cousin young master really has a heart!" Qibao stared at the big centipede kite with envy, "Girl, the sky is so good, let's go fly a kite, Sister Hongyun said, there has been some mold in our house recently, let's go and release the mold!"

Seeing Zhou Mingshan staring at him, Hongyun hurriedly lowered his head, secretly regretting it in his heart.

I knew that I wouldn't talk too much with Qibao, but she explained a few words when she asked herself why the girl was unhappy, but she didn't expect her to sell herself!

"You guys go play, just remember to keep someone to serve!"

Zhou Mingshan briefly instructed a few words, and then went back to the house.

She wasn't in the mood to play at the moment.

Hongyun followed step by step, and shouted with low eyebrows, "Girl......"

Zhou Mingshan glanced at her, opened a travelogue on the table, and said softly for a while, "It's good that you have your own measure!"

Hongyun nodded hurriedly, of course she knew the measure, what should be said, what should not be said, never want to hear a little bit from her Hongyun's mouth.

The family affairs of the Zhou family and the Yuan family began to be in full swing.

According to Gu's meaning, of course, the sooner it was set, the better, and he specially asked someone to count several good days, and in order to show his attention, he also handed it to Yuan to ask for advice.

Yuan had other ideas.

According to the rules, after the official decision, the man and the woman can no longer meet, and the girl can no longer go out at will.

The Yuan family doesn't want to detain Zhou Mingshan, only the days before marriage in the daughter's family are the most brisk, even if Zhou Mingshan marries into her uncle's family, it can't change the fact that she will be a daughter-in-law in the future.

Therefore, she chose the latest one in the days given by the Gu family, anyway, the marriage date must be after Zhou Mingshan and Xu, and it will not affect the appointment sooner or later, so that Zhou Mingshan can relax for a few more months.

Gu had a lot of complaints about this, but Yuan was right, so he had to complain a few words secretly, then put it down and began to concentrate on preparing the dowry.

Of course, Zhou Mingshan is grateful for Yuan's intentions, and only her own mother will think about her like this, and even keep this kind of trivial matter in mind, so she made up her mind and began to solve the worries in her heart.

At this point, her rejection or acceptance is a result, if she does not try to free herself, then she will still suffer in the future.

Although it has not been officially decided, Zhou Mingshan's family affairs cannot be hidden, and everything that the Hou Mansion should know is known.

It's just a family affair of the juniors in the third room, and the Hou Ye couple just asked a few words, since their parents are willing, they don't need to care about it at all.

Congratulatory gifts were sent from each room, and the sisters also came to congratulate in person.

Others are fine, but Ma and Zhou Mingke in the second room have some bad intentions.

Especially Ma's, he was mocking Yuan's words both inside and out, what "good horses don't eat back grass", "bones and blood can't flow back", "eat a trench and grow wisdom"......

Although the Yuan family was annoyed enough by her, but nominally the Ma family also came to say goodbye, and it was not easy to drive people away, so he had to let her say enough, and listened to Zang Rui say that the Yuan family even ate half a bowl of rice that night.

Zhou Mingke is a girl, although her speech is not as mean and explicit as Ma's, the slight ridicule at the corner of her mouth is not hidden.

Zhou Mingshan understood her thoughts, it was nothing more than that Zhou Mingshan had been tossing for so long, and finally decided Yuan Zheng, she was so spineless, her face was trampled on the ground by others, and she still acted as if nothing had happened, and she still greeted people with a smile.

Zhou Mingshan didn't want to say more to her, so she directly served tea and sent it to the guest.

Whether it's good or bad, it's just her own business, what does it have to do with others?

Although Zhou Mingluo, the second girl in the long room, did not come, she asked someone to send her a pair of colored porcelain Fuwa.

This kind of colored porcelain is said to be a few years ago in the official kiln of Jingdezhen, it is very rare, just plates and saucers a year is not much, let alone this kind of Fuwa.

It not only contains Zhou Mingshan's nickname, but also has a beautiful meaning, and Zhou Mingluo's gift can be regarded as bothering.

Zhou Mingshan was very grateful and went to thank her in person.

Zhou Mingluo said that he was embroidering a wedding dress.

Zhou Mingshan entered the door only to find that the second-class girl next to Zhou Mingluo, Zuiyun, was sitting in front of the embroidery frame and was busy threading needles and threads, while Zhou Mingluo was eating fruit on the couch in the inner room.

Seeing Zhou Mingshan, Zhou Mingluo threw the fruit in his hand on the plate with a "snap", revealing a disgusted expression, "Look at what you look like, it's sour, since it's not happy, what to pretend, I look annoyed!"

The words were not good, but somehow, Zhou Mingshan heard a trace of warmth from them, her nose was sore, and tears almost fell out.

Zhou Mingluo was sharp-eyed, waved his hand and threw his handkerchief over, turned his head in disgust, and muttered, "Hurry up and wipe it, don't come to me if you want to drop the gold beads, no one will give you a follow!"

"Poof......

Zhou Mingshan couldn't help laughing anymore, with tears in her laughter, but her heart was a lot easier.

This is the second sister Zhou Mingluo who has known her since she was a child.

Zhou Mingluo turned his head, picked up a piece of apple with a snort, and took a bite of it with a "click", "What are you laughing at, look at your ghostly look, are you embarrassed to laugh at me?"

Zhou Mingshan wiped off the wetness from the corners of her eyes, got up and bowed, "Thank you, second sister!"

"Thank you, I'm just annoying!"

Although he said so, the expression on Zhou Mingluo's face was a lot softer, and he pushed the fruit plate on the table to this side.

Zhou Mingshan picked up a piece with a fork and put it in his mouth, and the sweet juice soaked down his throat to his heart.

The two talked for a long time, and most of them were complaining about Zhou Mingluo, what Wen was in charge of her, and what aunt said that she should be a more female worker when she came last time......

Miscellaneous, although it is a small daily matter, Zhou Mingshan listens to it with relish.

Before leaving, Zhou Mingluo sent her to the door, watching her stop talking.

Zhou Mingshan was a little strange.

When he was about to ask her, he heard Zhou Mingluo sigh, "You're okay!" Then he waved his hand and turned his head back.

Zhou Mingshan thought about it, but didn't understand, looking at the shaking curtain, she finally stopped thinking about getting to the bottom of it.

Probably just a white instruction!
