In the second half of the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Ye Ai took Brother Xuan to Rongfu. After meeting Old Man Rong and Mrs. Rong, he asked Brother Xuan to be brought to Zhen Zhen.

"Brother Xuan? It's really Brother Xuan. How did you get here? Zhen Zhen looked at Brother Xuan, who was already nine years old in front of her, wearing a small blue brocade robe and a square scarf on her head, like a little scholar.

"I've seen the third sister. Brother Xuan followed his father, and his father said that Brother Xuan followed his sister to see the lanterns tonight. Speaking of Hua Lantern Xuan'er's little face, he finally showed a touch of excitement.

"The old slave (slave maid) greets the third lady." The big girl in front of Xiao's mother and Aunt Xiao, aloe vera, asked Zhen Zhen to say goodbye.

Zhen Zhen talked to Brother Xuan for a while, and then sent someone to her grandfather's study to see if her father was gone.

After a while, Qiu Jin entered the room, "Third Miss, Old Lady Rong and Master Hou invite Miss to go to the inner study to talk." ”

Zhen Zhen nodded, "Mother Jiang will take Brother Xuan to find Cousin Rong Lei." ”

Zhen Zhen arranged for Brother Xuan and took Qiu Jin to her grandfather's inner study.

"Sister Zhen has seen her grandfather and father." Zhen Zhen entered the house and greeted her grandfather and Hou Ye.

"Sister Zhen'er come and sit here." Old Lady Rong beckoned and let Zhen Zhen sit down on the chair next to the couch.

"Sister Zhen'er has seen Brother Xuan?" Old lady Rong stroked her beard and asked Zhen Zhen with a smile.

Zhen Zhen glanced at Hou Ye, with a quiet smile on her face, "I've seen it, Mother Jiang took Brother Xuan to find Cousin Rong Lei." ”

Old Man Rong nodded, "Well, those children are playing over there, and they are clamoring to see the lanterns at night!" ”

Hou Ye Ye also looked at the old father-in-law and his daughter with a smile, and sat steadily on the side.

Zhen Zhen glanced at Ye Ai again, and stopped talking, with a look of embarrassment on her face.

"Sister Zhen, do you have anything to say?" Ye Ai saw her daughter's uneasiness and crampedness, and asked in a low voice.

"Daddy, Brother Xuan will follow his cousin and them to see the lanterns at night, and after watching the lanterns, I will rest at my grandfather's house for one night, and I will go home tomorrow."

"Hahaha, you're worried about these trivial things. Don't worry, your aunt has already arranged it, and Brother Xuan will stay at home for a few days. ”

Old lady Rong said haha, as soon as Zhen Zhen heard that Brother Xuan would stay for a few days, her big dark and bright eyes narrowed slightly, feeling that something was wrong.

Could it be that something happened at home? Zhen Zhen looked at her father with some concern.

Ye Ai sighed secretly in his heart, this child is like this, he doesn't want to see anything wrong with him at any time.

"Sister Zhen'er, don't worry, Brother Xuan is nine years old, the enlightened husband has resigned, and Daddy is thinking about finding a new Mr. for Brother Xuan." Ye Ai said indifferently, but when Zhen Zhen heard these words, her heart suddenly moved, looking for Brother Xuan'er, how could she find her grandfather's house?

Could it be ...... Thinking of this, Zhen Zhen subconsciously glanced at her grandfather, and then glanced at Ye Ai with some expectation.

"Hahaha, this girl is too smart and clever, so she can see something." Old Man Rong looked at Zhen Zhen's small movements, and laughed again.

Old Man Rong rarely let go of his mood and laughed like this, which made Zhen Zhen a little embarrassed.

Ye Ai had a kind and kind smile on his face, "Your eldest uncle wants to see Brother Xuan'er's qualifications, and if you can, let Brother Xuan worship your eldest uncle as a teacher." Ye Ai didn't say a word, Old Man Rong would also point out Brother Xuan at any time.

"Really?" Zhen Zhen felt that her mood immediately soared, although the eldest uncle had never been born, but the eldest uncle was also a famous Confucian in the Great Xia Dynasty.

If Brother Xuan really worships in the name of his eldest uncle, what will happen in the future ......

"Sister Zhen also followed to see the lanterns at night." Old Man Rong was in a good mood today, and then he said.

Zhen Zhen frowned and thought for a moment, then shook her head, "Sister Zhen won't go." ...... over there in the Hou Mansion! ”

Ye Ai looked at her well-behaved and sensible daughter, and her heart softened, "It's okay, your second sister and fourth sister follow Bofu to see the lanterns at night."

You also go to see it, it's rare to have a chance to go out and walk around, so don't always be bored at home. ”

"Yes, this year is the five-year competition, and it's lively outside. You just go with your cousin and them.

There has been a lack of daughters in our house for several generations, so this time you will go to play with Linlin's girl. ”

Zhen Zhen was relieved, in fact, she really wanted to go to see the ancient lantern festival, but she didn't go to see it at the Hou Mansion, and she would inevitably be talked about by the old lady and Xiaobai when she went.

Old lady Rong suddenly remembered something, looked at Ye Ai and said, "I haven't gone out for many years, it's rare for Sister Zhen to be here, I see that Sister Zhen and Linlin will follow me at night." ”

Ye Ai looked at the old father-in-law in surprise, and her heart throbbed for a while, what did the old father-in-law mean?

Old Man Rong stood up and sighed with some emotion, "Some things are not just avoided, since they can't be done, it's better to open up."

Sister Zhen said that she would get married this year, and it was rare to have such an opportunity, so my old man took the two girls around. ”

"Grandfather, you're so old, don't go." Zhen Zhen is worried about her grandfather's health, after all, her grandfather is in his seventies.

"It doesn't matter." Old Man Rong waved his hand and said indifferently.

In fact, Old Man Rong also decided suddenly, Sister Zhen and the Dingguo Mansion have decided on a family affair, no matter what outsiders think, this family affair is already a sure fact.

No matter how much I pamper this child, outsiders can't see it. The current situation of the Hou Mansion is getting worse and worse. I can't let Sister Zhen marry into the Dingguo Mansion and be wronged at all.

Although this matter is only a matter of the two families, it still involves the situation in the court after all.

"Virtuous son-in-law! I may not be able to see the future, but my old man has been silent at home for a few years, and it is time to come out and walk.

It's time for some people to see our attitude. Although the fourth master is insignificant, our attitude should also be revealed! ”

Old Man Rong's words were a little inexplicable, but Ye Ai understood, Ye Ai's expression was stunned, and his face showed a touch of contemplation and surprise, "Father-in-law means that he is ready to show his hole cards?" ”

"It's time, you've heard the eldest princess's rhetoric to the outside world, you really think it's as simple as the eldest princess is in love with Sister Zhen?

This is a signal to the outside world! No matter what the commotion is over there, the fact that King Rui is the son-in-law of the Dingguo Mansion cannot be changed, and you and I are out of the court because of something, which is also obvious to everyone.

No matter what the Zhan Wangfu does, it can't change this fact! Since that's the case, it's time for me to show an attitude, and I can't make people suspicious in my heart! ”

What Weng and her son-in-law said were a little inexplicable, but Zhen Zhen still felt that she understood the meaning!
