Chapter Twenty-Three: Spring
In the blink of an eye, February passed, Zhou Qin waited for a long time, and there was no news from the princess of Wei, which made her secretly wonder, and she could only speculate that the galloping horse was caused by various reasons. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info This time he did not board the carriage, by mistake, the princess of Wei also escaped.
Since the galloping horse incident no longer exists, it should mean that this life will no longer follow the trajectory of the previous life, and those subsequent tragedies will not happen again.
With such thoughts, and seeing Zhou Yanzhi studying peacefully in the palace, Mrs. Zhao is also in good health, and Zhou Qin has been living a very happy life recently. She had a lot of speculations in her previous life, thinking that the reason why Mrs. Zhao had a stroke in the first place, although Tai Ban was due to her impatience, there was also a reason why she didn't like to move more when she got older and often stayed indoors.
Mrs. Zhao went through twists and turns in the first half of her life, and finally survived and became an old feudal lord, so she refused to move and walk more, and she didn't like to go out as a guest, nor did she like to go out to play. She doesn't play leaf cards or letters, but only listens to some lyrics and operas in the house, or summons some famous women to talk and relieve her boredom.
Zhou Qin originally thought that she was lazy, and it was spring after she came back from rebirth, and the wilderness outside was desolate and green, so he thought about persuading her in a few days. Now that it has passed the tenth month, the outside is full of vitality, and spring is full of joy, it is a good time to go out for spring, but Mrs. Zhao only stayed at home to watch some literary and miscellaneous plays, so she went to persuade.
"It's a lot of trouble." As soon as Mrs. Zhao heard that she was going to the suburbs to enjoy the wild flowers and green grass, she shook her head, "When Yanzhi comes back, let him take you and the girl from the He family to go by himself, and I won't go to join in the fun." ”
If it was in the past, Zhou Qin would have gone by himself. But at this time, she came specifically to instigate Mrs. Zhao to go out for a walk, how could she stop there, so she persuaded her without repeating her words.
"Nest at home for a winter, last year the snow fell heavily, now spring, mixed peanut trees, grass warbler flying, I heard that the willows by the Jinshui River have pulled out new shoots, these more than ten days, it is the time of tender green, it looks green, it is comfortable, after this section and then go, you can only see the old green, and then have to wait for a year."
"These days the spring is just right, let's go to the Jinming Pond, I heard that the month before was opened, there are 'singing and dancing girls, all over the garden pavilion', 'willow carving saddle boy drunk, waterside fan beauty line', let Begonia bring a kite to fly, I personally made a beauty kite for my grandmother, let's also do a beauty!"
"Let Mama Meng and them go together, the begonia grass brings fruits, snacks, and playthings, we list the cups and plates in the garden, and put a mat under the green tree, it is said that the poppy beauty blooms in the back garden, very beautiful, and there are more yellow, white, pink, four or five categories sandwiched together, no more beautiful."
"If there are many suspects, let's not go to the golden pool, go to Huiyuan, there are few people in Huiyuan, frangipani bloom more and fragrant, the sun is small, you don't have to hide under the tree, the place is also big, there are fields, mountains and forests, just a little higher, we are not in a hurry, live there for a night and come back, isn't it happy?"
Old Madam Zhao was a little moved when she heard this, and Mama Meng was also accosting her on the side, so she smiled and said, "Okay, you go and pick a day." ”
Accompanied by Mrs. Zhao, there is no need to wait for Zhou Yanzhi, Zhou Qin's grandmother does not love many people, so she went to look through the almanac, and after three days, she went to the Huiyuan Garden in the northern suburbs to see the frangipani.
The night before leaving, after dinner, Mama Meng came over to make arrangements for the next day's itinerary and things, Mrs. Zhao looked faint, nodded, and asked more, "Let's meet with the people of He Mansion in Huiyuan, or how to arrange it?" ”
Mama Meng was very surprised, "I haven't heard that I went with the people of He Mansion." So he hurriedly sent someone to ask.
It didn't take long for a little girl to come over and reply, "The girl said, this time I only went to the Qingdao with the old lady, and there was no one else, and the second girl He didn't invite her." ”
Mrs. Zhao didn't speak at the time, and when she returned to the dormitory, she asked Mama Meng to take out a few new clothes made in the spring, left to right, a little hesitant, "Which one do you think I wear better tomorrow?" ”
But the luggage that went out in the past two days has already been sorted out, and it is still the clothes that you personally ordered, old lady.
Mama Meng naturally didn't say this, she quickly reacted, picked up the eight-legged glass watermelon lamp on the table, leaned under the clothes, and looked at it for a long time before saying: "This light is a little dim, the color is not obvious, I look at this navy blue looks more energetic." ”
Old Madam Zhao called Coral to come in and light the lamp, and asked what Coral meant for a while, Coral looked at it carefully, and said with a smile: "I look at this dark green one that is more flattering to the old lady, and the navy blue one is also good, and it looks younger." ”
Mrs. Zhao nodded with satisfaction, "I also think this navy blue looks more energetic, wear this navy blue tomorrow, and bring the autumn fragrance color jacket of the new work last time, I will see how the color is, if it is too bright, I will wear dark green, if it is more green and less red, I will change the autumn fragrance." ”
I asked what snacks she brought, but she took the drama she loved to watch, and asked her to bring two or three people on the stove with her, if the food in Huiyuan was not good, she could also make it herself.
Mama Meng remembered that she had asked the old lady about the matter the day before, and the other party ordered a few clothes at random, so she left the rest of the things to herself to send away, and asked what she wanted to bring to eat, which was also indispensable, and she seemed very uninterested in this trip.
Now in a blink of an eye, Mrs. Zhao's attitude is completely different.
She thought about it for a long time and went to see Zhou Qin.
Zhou Qin's things have been almost packed up, and when he saw her coming, he hurriedly invited her to sit down, and asked the little girl to serve tea.
"How can Mama have time to play at this time, do you have any instructions from the old lady?" Zhou Qin personally handed her tea.
Mama Meng hurriedly took the tea and replied, "It's not a big deal, come and see how the girl is cleaning up here, and then tell you about tomorrow's arrangements." ”
She said a few words of gossip, and when she saw that only Begonia was standing on the side, she slowly said today's events in a careful tone.
Zhou Qin was very surprised, "What does Grandma mean, Grandmother didn't really want to go, but I heard that it was just with me, so she fell in love?" ”
Mama Meng hurriedly shook her head, "It's not that I don't really want to go, it's just that I see that the old lady has become more and more immobile in recent years, thinking that it is rare to persuade her to go out for a walk now, and it is good for her body to come. ”
After she said this, she picked up some food and asked Zhou Qin, and asked if she had brought a futon and slept well tomorrow, and Begonia answered them one by one next to her.
After chatting a few more words, Mama Meng said goodbye.
