Mama Zhen was stunned for a moment, raised her eyes to look at Gonggong Wu not far away, the corners of her mouth were slightly upturned, and a faint and sincere smile appeared on her face.

Curtsied, and said in a gentle voice, "I've seen my father-in-law." ”

Gonggong Wu did not wear a four-grade eunuch uniform that symbolized his status as he did during the day. Just wore one, navy blue, ordinary round-necked robe. Use only one bamboo hairpin to tie all the hair to the top of the hair.

Seeing Mama Zhen curtsied, she hurriedly turned sideways to avoid it, and said with a smile: "Sister Zhen, you are tormenting me." How can I accept your gift?"

Mama Zhen smiled and said, "This time, that time." Now, we deserve to be courteous. ”

Gonggong Wu said with a smile: "After so many years, Sister Zhen's rigorous temperament has really not changed at all. In the past, when I came to Jiangzhou to do business, I was in a hurry. Now, I finally have the opportunity to talk to my sister. ”

Mama Zhen said to the little maid who was following her, "Go down!" The little maid agreed, curtsied, and bowed down.

Father-in-law Wu naturally took the lantern in her hand, walked beside Mama Zhen, and lit the lantern for her.

The two came to the small courtyard where Mama Zhen lived. Mama Zhen invited Gonggong Wu to sit down at the stone table under the jujube tree in the courtyard, and skillfully lit the lantern hanging on the jujube tree.

The little girl who lived in the ear room heard the voice and walked out. Seeing Gonggong Wu beside Mama Zhen, he was stunned for a moment, and then curtsied. Turning around and walking into the ear room, he brought out refreshments. Seeing that Mama Zhen had no other instructions, she quietly retreated to the ear room.

"Hehe!" Wu Gonggong said with a smile, "The person trained by Sister Zhen is just not ordinary!"

Mama Zhen lifted the teapot, filled his teacup, and said with a smile: "He is a sensible child, and his hands and feet are also nimble." ”

Gonggong Wu picked up the teacup, now leaned under his nose and sniffed it, and nodded with satisfaction. took another sip and praised with infinite satisfaction: "Well, it's been a long time since I've drunk the chrysanthemum tea from Sister Zhen's cellar." ”

Lift the cup and drink the tea soup inside. With a smile, he pushed the cup back over. Seeing that the pale yellow tea soup filled the cup, he smiled and said, "Thank you, Sister Zhen." ”

Unceremoniously, he drank the tea soup in the cup again. After drinking five cups in a row, Mama Jane stopped pouring it for him.

Gonggong Wu also knew Mama Zhen's habits, and he didn't push the cup over again. Pick up the plate, a candied date dipped in sesame seeds, put it in your mouth and chew it gently.

I couldn't help but raise my eyes and look at the entire small courtyard. The jujube tree next to him has a trunk as thick as the mouth of a bowl, and the green jujubes hang on the branches dottedly.

In the southeast corner of the small courtyard, there is a small flower garden. In the neat little flower bed, not a single weed is in sight. All kinds of moon flowers are blooming one after another, and in this hazy moonlit night, it seems to be covered with a layer of tulle, which makes people unreal.

The breeze is blowing, and the faint fragrance of flowers is refreshing.

On the west side of the small courtyard, there is a row of grape trellises. Faintly, you can see clusters of tender green grapes.

Mama Zhen followed her gaze and said with a smile: "I don't know what the reason is, I have always had an obsession in my heart." I just hope that in the small yard where I can live, there can be a row of grape trellises.

Looking at the bunches of grapes, under their own careful watering, from small to large, from green to sweet. It made my father-in-law laugh. ”

"Hehe!" Gonggong Wu picked up the wet handkerchief on the tray, carefully wiped the sugar stains on his hands, and said with a smile: "Sister Zhen is outside." This small courtyard is clean and tidy, simple and elegant. At first glance, Sister Jane took care of it according to her own heart. ”

Mama Zhen put down the cup in her hand, pursed her lips, and said with a smile: "Yes! There is only one master in the mansion, and there are not many things. Then I had time to decorate the little courtyard as I wished. Besides, the county lord doesn't care about these either. ”

Wu Gonggong saw Mama Zhen under the lights, although her sideburns were like frost, her face was ruddy and her eyebrows were sparse. He smiled and said, "I see that Sister Zhen's complexion seems to be better than before. It seems that Sister Zhen has been doing well outside in the past few years, and she also gets along well with the county lord. ”

Mama Zhen pulled her windswept hair behind her ears, and said with a smile: "The county lord is generous and considerate to us subordinates. The days are all day by day, and everywhere is the same. ”

The people who come out of the palace are all cautious. He will never give the handle to others, even if the person in front of him has been kind to him.

Gonggong Wu didn't care about Mama Zhen's vigilance, he said with a smile: "Sister Zhen is right, no matter where you are, you have to face everything with a smile." It's just that my sister used to laugh for the sake of laughing. Now, however, it's a smile from the heart. ”

Mama Zhen gently shook the teacup in her hand, the corners of her mouth were slightly upturned, and she had a faint smile on her face, not admitting or denying it.

Gonggong Wu played with the empty teacup in his hand and said with a smile: "I'm just worried that Sister Zhen is used to living outside, and Leng Ding is a little uncomfortable when she returns to the palace." ”

Uh, what does that mean?

Mama Zhen's heart "chuckled", did the emperor want to recruit herself back to the palace? Although she had been taking care of the emperor's daily life before leaving the palace. But now, at first glance, I heard the news that I was going back. But there was some reluctance in my heart.

Immediately, the idea was denied. It's impossible, there are countless people around the emperor, no matter what, they won't recruit the people who have been sent out of the palace to their side again.

Could it be that someone else said something in front of the emperor and summoned himself back to the palace?

Like, that doesn't make sense······ By the way, a flash of inspiration flashed in her mind: The county lord! This is to arrange for the county lord to live in the palace! It's just that I don't know if it was the emperor's own meaning, or if someone said something in his ear.

Mama Zhen was thinking about it in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face. She smiled and said, "I haven't had time to speak to the county lord." Let her ask someone to find a house in the capital earlier. In order to avoid it, you can only live in the store. ”

The people who came out of the palace all had a seven-trick and exquisite heart. How could Gonggong Wu not understand that Mama Zhen was secretly inquiring about the county lord after arriving in the palace, she would be arranged in that palace?

Now that the words have been said here, Gonggong Wu has no intention of hiding it. Besides, Sister Jane has a meal for herself. Within the scope of his duties, he was willing to give her more help so that she would not be overwhelmed.

The inside of the palace looks glamorous on the outside, but it is actually a swamp on the inside. If you don't pay attention, you will fall into it and even lose your life.
