The mother-in-law swept Yahuan and pouted: "That's a scandalous thing, and the water in Du Guogong's mansion can't be leaked." However, I have a sister who knows well who works in the kitchen in Nafu, and I know a little bit about it. ”

She glanced around and lowered her voice: "I heard that he was only seventeen or eighteen years old back then, and because of the beauty of the Yang family who continued the strings of the Guogong Mansion, the son of the world actually coveted his stepmother. One day, the Duke of Guo went out, and it happened that the Duchess of Naguo was taking a nap, and the prince saw him outside, and quietly came in to forcibly occupy his stepmother. And it happened that the mother of the Duchess of this country was also a guest at the house, and when the son was about to do something wrong, he was seen by the stepmother and the old lady and made a noise. The prince didn't stop doing anything, and the horizontal knife killed the stepmother and the old lady, and went back to sleep in the room with a swagger. When Du Guogong returned to his home, he was furious when he heard about this, and he did not repent, so he sent him to Yingtianfu Prison. ”

The girl was shocked that she could swallow an egg in her mouth, and only nodded after a while: "It's no wonder that it's such a person." ”

Zhenshu listened clearly, and sneered in his heart: What nonsense. A seventeen or eighteen-year-old man, not to mention the prince's house, is an ordinary family, and he has long lived in a separate room with his mother, so how can he see his stepmother's bed at a glance. Moreover, the Duchess of the country is in the inner courtyard, and there must be several curtains covering the house, and there must be many maids and daughters-in-law to accompany each other outside, how can the prince of the country break into his stepmother's bedroom like entering a no-man's land. What this woman said must have been made up.

Because of the difference between men and women, and because they were all unmarried boys and girls, the drinking was only a little taste, and the feast ended early after only one or three moments. And Nan'anhou's wife, Nie, accompanied the Shen family, also left early. After using shabu tea, these young men and women still go back to the east hall to sit and eat tea, or gossip in pairs, or gather in three or five rooms. Because of the large number of people, they don't care about the big defense that men and women avoid.

Dou Keming entered the table and looked at Zhenyuan from time to time, but Zhenyuan was like an old monk who had settled down, no matter how he looked at him, he never responded at all. Dou Keming's anxious five inner ones were like cat's claws, and it was easy to wait until the banquet was dispersed to the east hall, and Zhenyuan also followed Nie Shiqiu closely, and was even more reluctant to talk to him.

At this time, Zhenyu was invited, and Dou Keming also left Xuanze Hall with Zhenyu, and the two went to the women's wall outside the courtyard to hang out all the way and enjoy the wall-painted poems on the women's wall. He saw Zhenshu standing far away under the corridor, with a crane neck and a bunch of high hair, very slim, so he pointed at her and asked Zhenyu: "The maid ring under the corridor, followed you before, and followed your sister today, but you are a slave born in the Song family?" ”

Zhenyu glared at Zhenshu from afar, and snorted coldly: "What kind of slave is she there, that is the serious third girl born in the second room of our family, because she is willing to be a maid ring for us, we don't want to brush off her kindness, so we let her be a demon." ”

Dou Keming heard that she was not Yahuan, and sighed in his heart: But it's no wonder that Yahuan there can have such a good bearing.

It's just that if she is not a girl, then the good thing of this Yingying and Red Lady will be gone. Moreover, listening to her tone in the back garden, she must not want the eldest girl to be Zhenyu's concubine, so I am afraid that this matter is just Zhenyu's words, and I don't want to be confused with Zhenyu.

Thinking of this, Dou Keming turned around and listened to Zhenyu's words: "Just now I saw your eldest sister in private, and the three girls are also together, she doesn't seem to want the eldest girl to be your concubine, haven't you discussed it with the elders of the Song Mansion yet?" ”

Zhenyu said: "Do you believe her or me?" They are just poor relatives of my family, and my grandmother dislikes them very much, and it is only because of the kindness of Concubine Rong in the palace that she barely supports them. Her father has a concubine, and the family is only divided into a few acres of thin fields in a small village in another county, if there is no dowry, who in this capital will marry a woman with no dowry? If you are worried that she will not be able to be a concubine, put this heart in your stomach and wait for it. How about I can make a curse today, and I will ask the girl in the second room to be your concubine? ”

Zhenyu said that he was already pointing to the sky, and he swore an oath. Seeing this, Dou Keming hurriedly shook her hand and said: "Why do you bother to curse, but after all, we are still not at home now, and you still have to show your elders about this matter." ”

Zhenyu said: "My parents went early, and the only grandmother used me as an eyeball to hurt." What do I ask for, and how can she refuse? If you say this, don't worry. It's just a matter of asking for marriage, why haven't I seen your movement for a long time? ”

Dou Keming shook his head silently, turned around and walked slowly forward. Zhenyu was angry in his heart, and secretly greeted the eighteenth generation of the old and young ancestors of the entire Beishun Hou Mansion, and then held back his anger and said: "You are not at ease, in a few days, our sisters will go to Guangji Temple on the outskirts of Beijing to offer incense, and you will come together to ...... at that time."

Dou Keming really took the bait, looked back and asked with a smile: "Come together, what is it?" ”

Zhenyu gritted her teeth, and said with a smile on her face: "I told you to taste some sweetness!" ”

Zhenshu stood under the corridor, and saw that Dou Keming and Zhenyu were far away from the female wall, looking at her from time to time, and kept whispering, and I didn't know what they were talking about, but I was faintly uneasy in my heart.

When the hour passed, the ladies in the Xuanze Hall also got up and said goodbye and went home. Several girls in the Song Mansion are still in the same car as the Shen family and returned to the Song Mansion together.

Since coming out of Xuanze Hall, Zhen Yuan has a smile on her face, and she is still smiling faintly when she arrives in the car. Zhenxiu looked at each other coldly all the way, and when she returned to Xiaoxi Courtyard, she saw that Zhenyuan did not fade the hairpin ring or take off her gown, but sat in front of the bronze mirror and looked at her face and smirked, knowing that she was in love.

In the Xuanze Hall of Nan'an Hou Mansion, Dou Keming, who was opposite the banquet, was always looking at Zhenyuan, and although Dou Keming went out after arriving in the East Hall, he made up for Zhang Rui who was wearing a Zhou Ziscarf. Zhenxiu wasn't sure for a moment whether she was moved by Dou Keming's spring heart, or if she fell in love with the flamboyant thin scholar Zhang Rui, so she stabbed each other and said: "Big sister is here and right today, but can you see who you want to choose as your son-in-law?" ”

Zhenyuan came to her senses, glared back at Zhenxiu, got up and went to the room where Zhenshu lived to remove the hairpin ring. Although Zhenshu did not sit in the same car with her, the touch of spring on Zhenyuan's face was too conspicuous at this time, and even she could see it, so she also teased: "Big sister looks like today, but she is really more beautiful than Huajiao." ”

Zhenyuan and Zhenshu have always been able to talk about some intimate words, and immediately took a long hairpin and said, "What do you think of that Zhang Rui?" ”

Zhenshu sat down beside her, held his chin and looked at Zhenyuan's eyebrows and said, "It's just a sour scholar, can my sister ask about his family background?" ”

Zhen Yuan took off the forehead again, and said slowly: "He said that he is the cousin of the wife of the Marquis of Beishun, and he is also a native of Nanyue, and he is only twenty-one years old. ”

Zhenshu asked: "He didn't dare to report to his family, he only said that he was the cousin of Mrs. Shizi, but he was afraid that he was just a poor relative of the Beishun Hou Mansion just like us." From my point of view, poor relatives are still right for poor relatives. Besides, if he is really literate, next year's Huangbang High School will be a good thing for you. It's just that your mother wants you to climb rich, but I'm afraid that she will be difficult to pass. ”

Zhen Yuan looked at herself in the mirror, couldn't help but sigh, and said after a while: "Now that Yiqiē is still empty, if he really wants to, he will come to the door to propose." ”

The two were silent, and suddenly the door curtain was lifted, and Zhenxiu came in and said with a strange smile: "Just say that you are playing ghosts, sure enough, see that I don't tell the ancestor and Zhenyu, and I will be ashamed of you." ”

Zhenshu sent Zhenyuan out, only to cover the door and point at Zhenxiu's nose and scolded angrily: "The man should get married and the woman should get married, what's the shame about this?" Besides, this matter is inconclusive, if you shout out again, let others in this house know, you will lose more than the reputation of the eldest sister, if the eldest sister has a bad reputation, how can there be good people to come to ask you? ”

Zhenxiu also wanted to take the opportunity to burst out of the door, Zhenshu suddenly reached out and grabbed her arm and turned behind him, grabbed Zhenxiu on the bed, rode on her by himself, and slapped her on the back of the head with the other hand: "It's okay if you mess around in Caijia Temple, we are sisters, and I don't want to be difficult for you when I'm idle." But now in Beijing, you chew the root of my tongue everywhere, and I'm not a good product. But big sister? She has always lived in the deep boudoir, and Erjiu has not yet married, but today she has a little blue eyes from others, so you have to go around arguing sourly, don't you want to live? ”

Zhenxiu made her breathless, and then received a few slaps on the head, her ears buzzed, and she turned her arm to grab Zhenshu, but Zhenshu was pressed on her waist, and no matter how she reversed her hands, she couldn't catch Zhenshu a penny.

Originally, when they were in Caijia Temple, they also had their hands and feet, although Zhenxiu was fat and heavy, but her body was not as flexible as Zhenshu, and she was defeated every time, and she suffered the loss of Zhenshu's kung fu. I felt that I was almost angry, so I exhaled and snorted: "Good second sister, please...... I promise...... Don't dare ......"

Uncle Zhen got up at this time, stared coldly at Zhenxiu who was lying on the bed and pretending to be dead: "I advise you not to use the reputation of your sisters to fight for your self-righteous future, your mother can't cure you, you can't hurt you, you can't be heavy-handed." But I'm not afraid of you, not only am I not afraid, but I don't mind beating you up every night. If you really have the ability, you can really hug Zhenyu's thighs and leave Xiaoxiyuan from now on. ”

Zhenxiu gasped for a while, gritted her teeth and said, "You must think that I can't leave the small west courtyard and leave the second room?" Song Zhenshu, don't think that you have read a few idle books of talented and beautiful people, and if you recognize a little Gongsheng, you can be much taller than others. What's the point of being held hostage by you at home? One day in the future, I will definitely find a good man with family background and appearance, and from then on get out of the second room, out of Caijia Temple, when the time comes, maybe you are in the Caijia Temple is extremely poor, you can come to my door to borrow some firewood and rice......"

Xu went to Beijing this time to see some of the world, and climbed up to Zhenyu again, and Song Zhenxiu's tone gradually increased. She got out of bed and straightened her clothes, turned around and said coldly: "Don't you think that Tao Suyi looked at you twice more and asked you more, what an honor it can be." She's just a fake sour woman, and she's flirting with her style by reading a few books, and even I can't compare to her complexion. ”

When Zhenshu heard this, he laughed angrily instead of being angry. It turns out that Zhenxiu's anger today is all out of Tao Suyi's casual words, which can also be seen that she is narrow-minded.

Because of the Dragon Boat Festival to go to the suburbs of Guangji Temple to incense, since this day, several ladies in the Song Mansion are in the house to accompany the Zhong family. And the most bitter and happiest is none other than Su's. She saw that the faces of her daughters had been moistened by the water of the Wuzhang River in the capital, and she didn't know how much clearer she was when she was in Hui County, and because she went to a few Hou Men, her behavior and etiquette were also many times stronger than when she was in Hui County. For this reason, she stood behind Zhong all day long, and her legs were swollen and transparent, and she refused to snort lightly.

Sure enough, on the day of the Dragon Boat Festival, the house hung the Ai series of colors, and then everyone used some five poison cakes, and the Shen family took several girls to Guangji Temple in two cars and one set. Although this Guangji Temple is a male temple, because it is a royal temple, it is the most common place for the noblewomen of the princely families in the capital to go in addition to the family temple. Although all the monks in this Guangji Temple presided, the squatter rooms for entertaining female guests were all the semi-large novices who served as errands, and it was common for the female dependents of various prefectures to rest in the temple for three or five days.
