Chapter 883: Persistence
But every time the Zeng family looked at the childish Tu Manzhen, they were worried about whether she could support the heavy responsibility of the princess and the eldest daughter-in-law of the Liu family.
Fortunately, after looking at it in the past few days, although she is innocent and delicate on weekdays, she has a bit of decisiveness when she does things.
She didn't tell those few things, and Tu Manzhen did it properly, so she didn't need to worry about it at all. It seems that when she gives birth to a child, she can hand over a part of the feed, and let her try to get started first.
When she takes it all, she can also enjoy the blessings.
Zeng's thoughts were wandering, from Liu Qilan's marriage to Tu Manzhen. But Liu Qilan, who had just entered the door, was left aside.
"Mother, mother?" Liu Qilan shouted several times before Zeng came back to his senses.
Liu Qilan pouted and said, "What is my mother thinking? ”
Zeng was stunned, she couldn't talk about thinking about her daughter-in-law. Hurriedly smiled: "I'm just thinking about some things that have happened recently, the situation in Beijing is getting more and more tense, it's better for you to go out less." ”
Speaking of the recent situation, Liu Qilan's eyes darkened. It's just that Zeng was busy covering up and didn't notice.
"Mother, I'm just going to the Zhongguo Mansion, what danger can I have?"
The Guogong Mansion is located in Xicheng, which is the closest place to the imperial city. They are not far apart, so the movement between the national mansions, even if the situation is tense, is really not dangerous.
Zeng just made an excuse at random, and as soon as Liu Qilan said this, she was a little speechless. Instead, he said: "When did you and the second lady of the Zhongguo Mansion have such a friendship?"
Liu Qilan said: "Last time, my sister-in-law invited her to play, and I also accompanied her." only to find out that she is not as good as rumored. ”
"Mother, I'm bored at home, and my eldest brother and sister-in-law are too busy to take care of me, so you just let me go. As she spoke, she took Zeng's hand and shook it from side to side.
"Alright, alright. Zeng Shi was dizzy by her shaking and said, "Since you want to go so much, let's go." ”
As she spoke, she raised her voice and ordered: "Mother Wang, look at what you have brought from Zhuangzi and let Sister Lan bring it." "Since it's a visitor, you can't go empty-handed.
Liu Qilan raised her eyebrows and said, "Daughter, thank mother." ”
……
Zhiyuan is in the middle, and Xu Wan is really burning incense and caressing the piano.
These days, Wu Zhengxiang is outside most of the time. Even if I go home, I just have a hurried night's rest, or I have a meal in a hurry.
Xu Wanzhen didn't ask much, she only took care of the inner courtyard, so that no matter when he came back, he would be comfortable.
She herself let go of her mind, and under the careful care of Mama Zheng, her body recovered quickly.
Su Liangzhi didn't know that she had disappeared, or Empress Dowager Xiao couldn't rest assured, so she sent him to the Zhongguo Mansion to treat Xu Wanzhen.
Nowadays, the doctors with the most skilled medical skills in the capital are concentrated in the imperial city.
With the arrival of Su Liangzhi, Empress Dowager Xiao also rewarded a large number of imperial things in the palace, and carried them into Zhiyuan's residence like flowing water.
Let those who are watching with malice also stop thinking about Xu Wanzhen.
It seems that Xu Wanzhen's position in Empress Dowager Xiao's heart cannot be shaken. The previous rumors were just groundless.
And Xu Wanzhen never took those rumors to heart. It's not how powerful she is, it's that the people she cares about and love won't be swayed by rumors.
That's enough.
She never thought she was going to make everyone happy.
After a song, Xu Wanzhen stopped, and her thoughts were still immersed in the sound of the piano.
"Young lady, Miss Liu from the Pingguo Mansion is here. Qingmai entered the door.
Xu Wanzhen was slightly stunned, handed the plain silk that wiped her hands to Qingluo, and immediately reacted in her heart. The news of the defeat in the north has been spread for so many days, and Liu Qilan can't hold her breath.
"Ask her to come in. ”
"Young lady, you are in good interest. Liu Qilan entered the door and saw that she was leisurely, so she couldn't help but stab. The Pingguo Mansion is full of soldiers, but here it seems to be isolated from the world, and the waves are not alarmed.
Xu Wanzhen raised her eyebrows slightly, this Miss Liu's temperament is obviously not very good. Is this the attitude of asking people to do things?
As she thought. Liu Qilan was in the Pingguo Mansion, and she used to be a person with empty eyes, and she didn't even put her own eldest brother in her eyes.
After a few years, her temperament has calmed down a lot.
As soon as the words came out, Liu Qilan knew that she was impulsive again. Hurriedly said: "Young lady, I don't mean anything else. It's just that I'm anxious, so please forgive me. ”
Xu Wanzhen asked Qingmai to serve her tea, and said slowly: "There are some things that can't be rushed." ”
"What do you mean by what the young lady said?" asked Liu Qilan.
Thinking about the ten-day period that Wu Zhengxiang said, there are still three days left. Seeing that Liu Qilan once reminded her to be more careful of Yao Zhiyue's affection, she might as well put her words bluntly.
Xu Wanzhen pointed to the tea in front of her and said, "It's like this cup of tea in front of us." It's too hot right now, even if you barely get into your mouth, you will be burned, and the gains outweigh the losses. ”
"Be sure to give it time to cool down slowly. Xu Wanzhen looked at Liu Qilan, who was confused, and said: "As the saying goes, you can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, so why not wait patiently?"
She picked up the cup and saucer with her bare hands, gently brushed off the foam on the surface with the lid of the cup, closed her eyes slightly and took a sip of tea before slowly tasting the tea.
Her whole movement was as elegant and noble as flowing water, and Liu Qilan was dumbfounded.
Putting down the cup, Xu Wanzhen smiled lightly: "Qilan, do you understand the truth in this?"
Liu Qilan came back to her senses suddenly, listening to what she meant, she knew something. But because the time has not yet come, you can't tell you directly?
She nodded, but Liu Qilan was still not satisfied with this vague result. After thinking about it, she asked, "Young lady, do you know how long you have to wait before you can taste this cup of tea?"
is stubborn and stubborn about her, Xu Wanzhen has a headache and helplessness.
Speaking of which, she is also a noble girl in the capital, how can she be so messing around? Could it be that a noble girl who is carried away by love can't be treated with a normal attitude?
Like Lu Shi, she just passed on a little information, and she understood that she would no longer ask questions.
For Liu Qilan, Xu Wanzhen revealed enough information to herself. But she was still not satisfied, and had to ask clearly.
"Qilan, I'm half a year younger than you. It's just that, in terms of seniority, I will be an elder for a while. "Whether it is from Tu Manzhen's side or Wu Zhengxiang's age, she can be called Liu Qilan's elder.
"There are some things that don't have to be understood to be beneficial. Xu Wanzhen said earnestly: "When the time comes, you will naturally know." ”
