32. Chapter 32
After the people in the house dispersed, Na Zishi brought hot water and waited for Zhang Qiong to remove her makeup and freshen up.
After grooming, Zhang Qiong changed into her homely clothes, lazily lay on the beauty couch, and let Zishi carefully wipe her hair. Seeing this, the purple poem quipped: "The slave maid was very happy when she saw Uncle Fang Cai lift her head, and she was stunned when she looked at it, she must be very satisfied with the girl, and she didn't forget to look back at the girl before leaving." The girl will definitely be able to be like glue with her uncle. β
Zishu heard that his name was inappropriate, and reminded: "How many times have I told you, now it's different, why is it still called by the girl's aunt, this is in Rongguo Mansion, we have to call it uncle, grandma is the right thing!"
Zi Shi hurriedly responded and solemnly saluted Zhang Qiong, and said, "Grandma!"
A room of girls covered their mouths with handkerchiefs and smiled. Zishu glanced at it, and they all fell silent.
Zihua smiled and said, "Zishi is not safe to call it in private, as long as it is not in front of the old lady, the old man and his wife." But she said one thing well, our grandmother is beautiful and fragrant, where is the reason why the uncle is not happy, but this Rongguo Mansion is different from the original Zhang Mansion, and it is good to be cautious in everything, and my wife has a good saying. Uncle is good to grandma. Grandma has to take advantage of the newlywed time to hold the uncle and strive to give birth to a brother as soon as possible. Then grandma will be able to stand up in Rongguo Mansion, and the most important thing is to honor the old lady well, so that the uncle will not be more satisfied with grandma. β
Mama Tong on the side listened to it and wanted to say something, but she came out of the palace, because she was afraid that the Jia family was different from the Zhang family, and Zhang Qiong was not adaptable, so she was invited by the Zhang family to be Zhang Qiong's upbringing grandmother, which is different from the maids who have stayed with Zhang Qiong since childhood. glanced at Zhang Qiong, who was silent with low eyebrows, and after a few thoughts, he finally thought that he had some feelings after raising Zhang Qiong for two years, and couldn't help but speak, so he heard a maid outside the door say: "Miss Min is here!"
Zhang Qiong hurriedly got up from the beauty and wanted to get up to greet her, but Jia Min had already come in. Zishi moved the chair smartly, Jia Min waved her hand lightly, and did not sit down, only squinted and looked at Zhang Qiong with a smile, dressed in a red lily regular dress, with gold threads rolled up, and the appearance of the buttoned flowers was not as solemn as the wedding dress, but it was a little more beautiful, taking advantage of Zhang Qiong's already beautiful face, the more beautiful.
Seeing that Zhang Qiong blushed and lowered her head, Jia Min pursed her lips and smiled: "Sister Qiong is really good-looking! Look at me! Grandmother said that she can't be called a sister anymore, she wants to be called a sister-in-law." If you are rude, I hope your sister-in-law will forgive me!" As he spoke, he leaned down to ask for guilt.
Although Zhang Qiong knew that she was joking, she couldn't accept her gift, so she hurriedly got up and held it up, "You girl, why are you making fun of me." β
Zhang Qiong and Jia Min already knew each other, and they were very good, and they spoke with some casualness.
Jia Min quipped: "I thought that my brother couldn't come back for a while, and I neglected my sister-in-law, and I was afraid that my sister-in-law would be depressed, so I wanted to come and talk to my sister-in-law." My third sister who got married said that this marriage is hard work. My brother is a man who can eat and drink spicy food outside, but he only suffers his sister-in-law, and on this day, he must be tired and hungry. Min'er didn't know what my sister-in-law liked to eat, so I asked the small kitchen to make white fungus lotus seed soup. Would you like to try it, sister-in-law?"
Only then did Zhang Qiong see the maid behind Jia Min holding an ebony tray in her hand, and there was an azure porcelain cup on the tray.
Shui Yun listened to Jia Min's words, and had already poured out a bowl of white fungus lotus seed soup in the cup, and respectfully brought it to Zhang Qiong.
Zhang Qiongzheng was also hungry, so she didn't shirk, thanked her, and ate, but she only took a bite, and then she heard Jia Min smile happily: "Okay, good, eat lotus seed soup, I wish my brother and sister-in-law an early birth of a noble son!"
Zhang Qiong was stunned. Looking at the lotus seed soup in the bowl, lotus seed pity, isn't it a premature child? Looking at Jia Min's playful expression, how can she still eat this? She also knew Jia Min's kindness, so she didn't say anything, and "gave birth to a noble son early", how could she not want to? Zhenzhen was ashamed and happy to eat the whole bowl of lotus seed soup, Fang took the tea handed over by the girl, rinsed her mouth, and talked to Jia Min again.
Jia Min saw that the hour was not early, so he got up and said goodbye.
After a short time, Jia Yu came back, and as soon as the groom and the official arrived, the maids and grandmothers in the house retreated with a look on their eyes. Zhang Qiong saw that he was very drunk, and called Zishi to bring the decanting soup, Jia Yu sat next to Zhang Qiong, seeing that Zhang Qiong was still a little shy, he gently held Zhang Qiong's hands with a handkerchief, and said softly, "I will be good to you." β
"Hmm," Zhang Qiong said uneasily.
"How will I call you in the future, well, it's Madame, and Madame, these two are not good, too cheesy, what are your small characters. Jia Yu saw that she was uneasy and spoke to her.
"He'an, this is what my father fetched. β
"He'an, He'an, then I'll call you that from now on. β
Zhang Qiong heard the footsteps outside the door, thinking that the decanting soup had been prepared earlier, and said softly, "Let's drink the decanting soup first, otherwise I will have a headache the next day." "Summoned Zishi in.
Zishi put down the sobering soup and retreated with interest, Jia Yu smiled after drinking, "The lady is really thoughtful." β
"He'an, it's not too early, let's rest. After speaking, Zhang Qiong picked it up and put it in the bed curtain, and then deceived people up, Zhang Qiong didn't react, and the cherry lips were firmly held by him.
The red candles in the house are burning, the clothes fall silently on the thick red carpet, and in the red curtains, a room is full of beautiful spring, and the dragons and phoenixes are in pairs.
The next day, Jia Yu woke up early, holding his head and looking intently at Zhang Qiong's tear-stained sleeping face. I was really tossed by him last night, and his eyebrows frowned slightly. It was also Jia Yu's eyes that were too hot, Zhang Qiong woke up suddenly, and Jia Yu's face was close in front of him, and he didn't react for a while, it was her newlywed husband Jia Yu, and he almost didn't scream.
Seeing this, Jia Yu couldn't help but smile, and said: "He'an, we have to get up, we still have to go to our grandmother, father, and mother to say goodbye." β
Zhang Qiong's whole person shrank into the red and sprinkled gold all over the flower lily quilt and refused to come out, this person is so serious, she still γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ» how dare she go out!
Jia Yu was very amused when he saw his shyness, and he was afraid that his little wife would be annoyed and angry because of her thin skin, so he raised his voice and called the girls who were waiting outside to come in and wait to go to the ear room to bathe. Zhang Qiong waited until he left before letting Zishi Zishu come in to serve, and the maid came in, poured hot water, and asked, "The bath water is ready." β
"Zishi and Zishu stay, and everyone else goes down. β
When only Zishi and Zishu were left in the room, Zhang Qiong got off the bed with a red face, and the traces of bruises and purple on her body were exposed to the sight of the two.
Although Zishi Zishu is not married, she has already understood people, and she can't help but blush when she sees Zhang Qiong's appearance.
Zhang Qiong finished bathing, got dressed, and sat down next to the dresser supported by the girls, and saw that Jia Yu was also discouraged and was waiting for her.
Zhang Qiong couldn't help but think of what happened last night when she saw him, and immediately blushed.
Jia Yu didn't notice that she was shy, and only said, "Let's finish breakfast, and then go to say hello to grandmother, father, and wife." β
Jia Yu's courtyard was not far from the old lady's courtyard, so they wanted to go to the old lady's courtyard first, but before they could go out, the old lady would beat people and tell them to go to Rongxi Hall first, and then to her.
Zhang Qiong held the girl's hand and walked slowly, a little uneasy, Jia Yu lowered his head and took her hand, and comforted softly: "Don't worry, although my father is strict, he is very good-tempered." Although my wife is cold to me, she will not embarrass you on the surface. The second brother is not often there to study in the college, and the younger sister and the people you also know are also very easy to get along with. After speaking, he thought about it and said, "Mrs. loves the second brother very much." Sister Min, she is a very good person, if you have nothing to do at home, you can go and talk to her. β
I heard my mother say at home that the Duchess of Rongguo was partial to the second son, but now when I heard Jia Yu talk about her mother in person, she said that she loved her second brother and didn't mention anything else. When the tea is toasted and the gift is received, the original five-point guess becomes an eight-point affirmation.
In the Rongxi Hall, Rong Guogong and his wife sat on the main seat, with a man and Jia Min standing on both sides, thinking that it was Jia Zheng, the second brother of Jia Yu.
The little girl put the mat away, and Jia Yu and Zhang Qiong knelt down together, "Meet my father and mother." β
After drinking his daughter-in-law's tea, Jia Daishan nodded with satisfaction, and rewarded a high-quality white jade ruyi and a wedding seal, while his wife rewarded a set of red sandalwood crystal noodles.
Zhang Qiong smiled and thanked her, and presented the shoes and socks that she had made when she was at home, "The daughter-in-law's needlework is rough, which makes my father and mother smile." β
Jia Shishi took his shoes and looked at them because Jia Dai was good, and said with a smile: "My daughter-in-law is modest, and she has put a lot of thought into the workmanship." β
Zhang Qiong gave Jia Zheng a fan cover embroidered with turquoise snow scenes, and Jia Zheng gave back a set of four treasures of the study, which made Zhang Qiong very depressed.
gave Jia Min a purse made by herself, and Jia Min returned the jade pendant in the shape of a mandarin duck, and said with a smile: "I wish my brother and sister-in-law to be as kind and loving as that mandarin duck." β
After that, Jia Yu and the others went to the old lady's courtyard, and Zhang Qiong respectfully gave the old lady tea. The old lady drank it with tears in her eyes, and gave her a ruby face and a wedding envelope. After a brief conversation, they went back to rest.
Early in the morning of the third day, Jia Yu and Zhang Qiong asked the old lady to say goodbye, and then took the car full of gifts prepared by the old lady to go to Zhang's mansion.
When they arrived at Zhang's mansion, the two went to the front yard to greet Zhang Changgong first.
Zhang Changgong and Zhang Xuan, the three brothers, waited for the little couple in the study early in the morning, and after Zhang Changgong accepted their courtesy, he said a few thoughtful words to Zhang Qiong, and then left Jia Amnesty, and let the mother-in-law lead Zhang Qiong to the backyard to see Mrs. Zhang.
As soon as Mrs. Zhang saw her daughter, she grabbed the boy and looked at it carefully, and saw that there was nothing wrong with her daughter's radiant appearance, so she was relieved. Zhang Qiong was very embarrassed by her mother, and said coquettishly: "Mother, if you haven't seen you for three days, you don't recognize your daughter?"
Mrs. Zhang pointed a finger on her daughter's smooth forehead: "I really responded to the sentence 'married and my daughter spilled the water', and now even my mother dares to joke, who do you say I am for?"
Although it was good, Mrs. Zhang was not at ease, so she asked all the people in the house to retreat and asked quietly, "Is Uncle good to you?"
Zhang Qiong's face turned red all of a sudden, and she hung her head and was silent. Mrs. Zhang hurriedly said: "You child, are you going to kill me in a hurry? What else can't you say to your mother? I just want you to live well, and if you don't say it, how can you be called a mother?"
Zhang Qiong couldn't help Mrs. Zhang's questioning, so she told everything she had seen and heard in Jia's mansion in the past few days. When Mrs. Zhang learned that Jia Shi was not pleased, she said uneasily: "Earlier, I was afraid that the in-law wife would not want to see you, but fortunately, the old lady is still there!"
Zhang Qiong couldn't help but say good things for Jia Yu: "Although the wife is not easy to get along with, the old lady is excellent, the husband respects the old lady the most, and treats his daughter γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ» is also very good to his daughterγ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»"
Mrs. Zhang disagreed: "You are still young and have never seen the world, it is good that this inner house is quiet and quiet, and it is really unreasonable to meet those unreasonable people." Uncle is good to you, but who can guarantee that he will be good to you for the rest of his life? The old lady is a sensible person, but she is old enough to protect you for a few years. "The most important thing is that the old lady went to the Rongguo Mansion because Jia Shi was in charge.
Seeing that her daughter was worried, Mrs. Zhang didn't continue, but comforted her daughter: "It's too early to say this, let's see in the future." If that uncle has the ability, you won't suffer too much, besides, the Jia family begged you to go, if his family dared to treat you badly, your father would not agree. There is also a saint who gives the marriage holy purpose to put it there, and the wife of the in-law also takes care of it. He pulled his daughter and talked affectionately, only hating that time passed too quickly.
When it was dusk, the girl came to report: "My uncle has come to pick up my aunt and grandmother." No matter how reluctant Mrs. Zhang was, she could only put on a cloak for her daughter with her own hands, and personally sent it to the second door to watch her daughter get on the sedan chair. As soon as Zhang Qiong's sedan chair came out of the second door, Mrs. Zhang's tears fell.
The mother of the son is worried, but the daughter who married out spilled the water, and the daughter who she worked so hard to raise is already the daughter-in-law of someone else's family, and she can no longer be by her side oftenγ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»
