Chapter 399: No Resignation
As soon as the post of the Chen Mansion was handed to the concierge, the Xia Mansion knew that the person who came was the second lady of the Chen Pavilion Old Mansion and the close friend of the lord of Xiying, so he didn't dare to slack off for a moment, and was busy sending the message inside.

After a while, the servant woman beside Xia Lanxin personally greeted her, first saluted Chen Zhihua outside the carriage, and then hurriedly ordered the porter to put the carriage and horses in, and drove until she reached the door of the hanging flowers.
It is the setting sun, and the clouds in the sky are like fire, dyeing the pavilions and pavilions in the summer mansion to the scorching eyes.
There was a family banquet in the evening, Xia Lanxin had finished her evening makeup, put on a cloak of golden swallow makeup flowers that was woven on the ground, and waited in front of the flower wall with Xiaoluo's hand. The bright sunset is like the most intense color under the pen of Danqing, smearing a piece of gorgeousness.
Looking at Xia Lanxin's graceful and dignified figure, Chen Zhihua suddenly added a few cramped points.
Today's handkerchief is the future sister-in-law, and she doesn't know how to speak for a while.
In the past six months or so, there have been many messages delivered by Xia Lanxin's hands. Chen Zhihua rushed to pay tribute at this hour, and it must not be for the sake of really giving any gifts.
Seeing Chen Zhihua's face twisted, Xia Lanxin stepped forward with a sweet smile and grabbed her hand: "What wind is blowing Sister Zhihua's big drive, our sisters won't see each other for a while, please sit inside." ”
Chen Zhihua looked at her casually and naturally, without a trace of ridicule, so he handed over the gift list in his hand, and tried to be generous with a slight smile: "Come in a hurry, today's big sister sent a gift from my father, my father said that there are Gaoyou salted duck eggs that the old lady likes to use, and specially ordered me to send them before the dinner." ”
Grandmother's taste Xia Lanxin is familiar with it, and he likes to eat Gaoyou's salted duck eggs. Hearing that it was sent from Jiangyin, and it was Chen Ge's old man's order, Xia Lanxin added a little bit of understanding.
She accepted Chen Zhihua's gift list with a smile, and smiled more affectionately: "Exactly, if grandmother knows that there are Jiangyin's specialties, she will definitely add half a bowl of rice tonight." Sister Zhihua came with me and went to my grandmother's room to sit down. ”
Chen Zhihua took his father's entrustment, and could not delay the reunion banquet in Xia Mansion, so he hurriedly met Mrs. Hou's Shen, and followed Xia Lanxin to Huanxi Hall to meet Mrs. Xia.
The children in Chen's mansion are all smart, and Chen Zhihua also has the ability to look at them. Her father showed her the letter written by Mama Fei, and she naturally recited it to the old lady as it was.
The old lady sat solemnly, listening attentively to Chen Zhihua's recitation, but her mind was like lightning, and she was already thinking about how to deal with it.
Since the transfer of the son of Sun Shicheng, a scholar of the Hanlin Academy, from Jiaozhou, Lao Taijun has firmly controlled the waterway of Jiaozhou Bay, and secretly formed a fleet, which is facing Jiangyin in pairs, cutting off Jiangyin's possible retreat to win over the defenders of Jiaozhou.
With Chen Zhihua's silent recitation, the old lady came to the rosewood screen behind the bookcase, carefully looked at the map of Xixia, and drew with the red line outline on the top from time to time, and some ideas in his heart were boldly formed.
Chen Zhihua finished reciting the letter and stood aside gracefully, waiting for the old lady to ask.
The old lady returned to her seat, twisted the small leaf red sandalwood Buddha bead on her wrist to reveal her loving face, and stretched out her hand to Chen Zhihua: "Good boy, come and sit next to your grandmother, it's hard for you to be willing to run this trip." ”
The red glow on Chen Zhihua's face has not faded, reflecting the red veil on his body, and his eyebrows and eyes are particularly bright. The old lady is also a person who has come over, how can she not know the shyness in the girl's heart, so she only held her hand and asked solemnly, "What else does your father have to say?" ”
's father obviously instructed himself to invite the old lady to pass on him, and he had a few words to explain to Xia Yuzhi, but how could Chen Zhihua speak?
Chen Zhihua twisted for a while, and the other hand that was placed on the long skirt in a regular manner wrapped the ribbon around his waist, looking a little embarrassed. Seeing that the old lady's eyes were always loving, Chen Zhihua turned his heart and said softly: "Father said that he doesn't understand the deployment of force, and these things still have to be relied on... Rely on..."
Unexpectedly, he found that he didn't know how to call Xia Yuzhi, calling the general was too raw, and calling the name couldn't be called, and the curling fragrance of tea overflowed, making Chen Zhihua's cheeks red, and he lowered his head shyly.
"But what else does your father have to say to Yuzhi?" The old lady looked at Chen Zhihua lovingly, looking at this woman who was willing to show her head, and had deep praise in her heart.
Chen Zhihua nodded shyly, although his face was red, his words were not disproportionate: "Zhihua knows that it is not reasonable, but there is a priority in the matter, please forgive the old lady." ”
"The Chen family is loyal, and your child is righteous in his heart, how can there be any sin that needs to be forgiven by the old woman?" The old lady held Chen Zhihua's hand and was reluctant to let go, while ordering someone to invite Xia Yuzhi over.
Ming Qiluo opened his own makeup box, and the old lady personally picked out a set of jade heads from his youth and handed it to Chen Zhihua: "I like your appearance and temperament very much." Today is a day of family reunion, and grandmother can't keep you to eat, which is a little heart. ”
Hearing that the old lady called herself a grandmother in every sentence, Chen Zhihua knew that she was satisfied with this marriage, and her face flushed. Seeing that the jade was transparent up and down, without a trace of flaws, knowing that it was a rare good thing, for fear that Xia Lanxin would be uncomfortable, she hurriedly pushed it away.
Xia Lanxin was standing beside the old lady, but at this moment she turned to Chen Zhihua's side, grabbed her arm and said sincerely: "Sister Zhihua is familiar with the books of sages, don't you know what the elders give, and you can't give up?" And don't let down your grandmother. ”
The family affairs of the two are basically finalized, but because of the Mid-Autumn Festival in August, the date of Xiaoding has not yet been determined. Lao Taijun first won Chen Zhihua, and then took her innocent family background. Now looking at her actions, she likes it from the inside out, and she is glad that Xia Yuzhi will definitely have a virtuous help in the future.
Afraid that she wouldn't be able to let go in front of her, the old lady casually mentioned it and asked how Chen Huanzhong's brother and sister delivered the news this time, Chen Zhihua did not hide it, and replied respectfully and seriously.
Mentioning the eldest sister who was far away in Yangzhou, Chen Zhihua's eyes showed concern, and his tone added a little heaviness.
The old lady pondered the news of Jiangyin carefully, and slowly asked Chen Zhihua: "In this way, your eldest sister's side is not peaceful?" ”
Chen Zhihua lowered his eyelids and sighed softly: "The eldest sister is in the whirlpool, so naturally she has to be careful every step of the way, not to mention that there is a sticky Yixian by her side to keep an eye on at any time." Don't hide it from the old lady, Zhihua is really a little apprehensive in her heart, looking forward to being able to cut the mess quickly and return everyone to a quiet world. ”
While talking, Luo Qi came in to report that Xia Yuzhi had already arrived at the door.
Even if it is summoned by the grandmother, it is not considered a private meeting. Knowing that Chen Zhihua had passed the house, Xia Yu's eyebrows and eyes were all bright, and with the curtain raised by Luo Qi, he strode into the old lady's main room.
