Chapter 138: Mrs. Zhou
Chapter 138 Mrs. Zhou
Zhou Jingran squinted his eyes and said with a smile:
"It's not appropriate to delay this matter too much, lest the prime minister think too much and think that your sincerity is not enough, then it's not good, just tonight, go back and ask someone to ask for a kiss, what are you going to say?"
"I have to tell my ancestors ......"
Gu Xiao scratched his head and said,
"You go and tell the ancestor yourself? That's not right. ”
Zhou Jingran seemed to be inadvertent, and said slowly,
"Do you want to go and tell the ancestor that you have also eaten this supper, and you are also optimistic about each other, and you have made up your own mind, that is, to send your old lady to go to the door for you and ask for a kiss, how can there be such a reason? The old lady is a rule-abiding person, this marriage matter, after all, is the order of the parents, the matchmaker's words, you make your own family affairs and then tell the elders, it is not in accordance with the rules when you talk about it"
Zhou Jingran's tone became heavy, Gu Xiao nodded again and again, Zhou Jingran squinted at him, and then said:
"You go back and talk to your mother secretly, let her go with you and talk to the old lady, so that it is proper, this person who proposes marriage must be able to be identified, well......"
Zhou Jingran twisted his eyebrows and thought seriously for a moment,
"I think, just tell your mother, go to the Runan Palace, let your aunt come forward, and this family affair will be handled smoothly."
"What Brother Zhou said is that my mother loves me the most, even if she doesn't, she won't blame me."
Gu Xiao looked at Zhou Jingran gratefully and said, Zhou Jingran's eyes flashed slightly, his eyelids drooped, he straightened his sleeves, and said with a smile:
"I'm also for your good, all for your good."
Zhou Jingran said while gently kicking the carriage with his foot, the car moved slightly, and Zhou Jingran said with a smile:
"I'll send you back, the old lady and your mother should also go back, don't delay too much, remember to whisper to your mother first at night."
Gu Xiao nodded again and again in agreement.
The car shook slightly, and after a while, it stopped in front of the ancient mansion, Gu Xiao quit Zhou Jingran, jumped out of the car, and went into the mansion.
Qingping lifted the curtain, Zhou Jingran looked at Gu Xiao's back as if with a silk jump, sighed leisurely and disappointedly, signaled Qingping to put down the curtain, and the car slowly shook and went back.
Gu Xiao walked briskly towards the courtyard, entered the Hanging Flower Gate, walked a few steps, gradually, his steps slowed down, standing in the Hanging Flower Gate, turning his head back and forth at the back of Mingyuan Hall and Chunzhu Courtyard, hesitating and unable to lift the start.
Do you discuss this matter with Nuan Nuan first, or go to your mother first?
The soft moonlight was cold and sprinkled on the bluestone road, the breeze shook the flowers and trees, swaying gently, and the shadows of different shades moved around on Gu Xiao's body, and the soft luster on the jade-colored silk cloak was swallowed by the shadows little by little.
Gu Xiao stood on the bluestone road, looking at the faint warm light behind Mingyuan Hall, and felt a little timid in his heart, would Nuan Nuan lose his temper? The cool breeze blew, Gu Xiao shuddered slightly, Nuan Nuan would not lose his temper, Nuan Nuan thought more about him than him, Nuan Nuan was so good to him, in this world, except for the ancestors and mothers, Nuan Nuan was good to him, no matter what happened, Nuan Nuan could think about him.
I don't know if the eldest lady of the Yan family has a good temperament, if so...... There will be a way to warm up, and there are ancestors......
Gu Xiao lowered his head, the cold chill in the first month penetrated his clothes, Gu Xiao subconsciously wrapped his cloak, Prime Minister Yan was so amiable...... Mother and ancestor will definitely go to see Miss Yan, if it is not good, the ancestor naturally has a way to push it off, the ancestor likes Xiao Nuan and wants her to be his grandson and daughter-in-law, so why did the ancestor never mention the matter of marriage? The old ancestor must be looking forward to him glorifying his ancestors more than his mother, and his father, how did his father die? That year, the spirit was sent back to his hometown, and the sacrifice was held in the middle of the night......
Gu Xiao shuddered, that night, the old ancestor's sadness and resentment were frightening, the old ancestor squeezed his hand so much, Gu Xiao only felt that his hand seemed to ache faintly, the old ancestor ......
Gu Xiao felt inexplicably uneasy in his heart, the old ancestor had something to do, he never told him, the ancestor's thoughts, and he didn't tell him, the old ancestor liked to talk to Nuan Nuan, Nuan Nuan always hid it from him, unlike his mother, his mother said everything to him, and discussed everything with him......
Gu Xiao's thoughts were chaotic, for a while, east and west, the more he thought about it, the farther he went, a cold wind blew, Gu Xiao only felt the chill to his bones, his body trembled slightly, he hurriedly wrapped his cloak tightly, stomped his feet, and strode in the direction of Chunzhu Courtyard.
In the Chunzhu Courtyard, Mrs. Zhou had already rested, got the reward, hurriedly put on her clothes, hurriedly went out of the inner room, pulled Gu Xiao, touched his cold hands, felt distressed, and poured hot tea one after another, sent a hand stove, and was busy rubbing and warming his hands.
Gu Xiao smiled, gently pulled out his hand from Mrs. Zhou's hand, took the hot tea served by the girl, took two sips in his hand, and said in a low voice with a smile:
"It's okay, I just saw the moon round, the garden is very beautiful, I stood in the garden and watched the moon for a while, walked slower, it's okay, I'm not cold, I'm not freezing."
Mrs. Zhou breathed a sigh of relief and complained distressedly,
"Look at you, such a big person, you can't freeze like this when you see the moon, it's not too late for someone to show you a hand stove......"
"Got it, Mother, I have something to tell you."
Gu Xiao put down the cup, his voice gradually lowered, Mrs. Zhou nodded again and again, waved her hand to rebuke the girl's mother-in-law, Gu Xiao moved forward, and said in a low voice about accompanying Prime Minister Yan to have supper, and said what Zhou Jingran meant.
Mrs. Zhou listened carefully, her face gradually flushed, her eyes were almost bright, Gu Xiao looked up at her mother, and said hesitantly:
"Just in the garden, I thought about it, and I didn't know what the ancestor meant......"
"What can the ancestor mean, the ancestor is naturally looking forward to you, if the ancestor knows such a good thing, he is naturally looking forward to your good, this marriage, but the two families."
Mrs. Zhou interrupted Gu Xiao's words, and said in a messy and anxious manner, Gu Xiao was stunned, hesitated, and nodded, Mrs. Zhou stood up, rubbed her hands and turned around the room a few times, stood suddenly, looked at Gu Xiao, and said heavily, word by word:
"This family business, no matter what, you can't let people go to such a good family, no matter what, you can't delay it, this family matter is related to your future"
Mrs. Zhou paused, stared straight at Gu Xiao, thought quickly, and after thinking carefully for a while, Mrs. Zhou bit her lip, made up her mind, looked at Gu Xiao and commanded in a low voice:
"Tonight, you will rest in my courtyard, don't go anywhere, tomorrow morning, I will take you to talk to the ancestors about this."
Gu Xiao looked at Mrs. Zhou hesitantly,
"Why bother my mother, I'll just go back and rest."
"No, you're resting in my yard tonight, and you can't go anywhere, have you told anyone about it?"
Mrs. Zhou was saying in a firm tone, suddenly thought of something, and immediately turned her mouth and asked, Gu Xiao shook his head,
"Not yet, Brother Zhou sent me to the gate, I got out of the car, and I came to my mother."
Mrs. Zhou breathed a long sigh of relief, and she didn't care about talking to Gu Xiao anymore, so she called the girl in and told them to wait for Gu Xiao to bathe and wash, and go to the East Wing Warm Pavilion to rest.
Seeing the girl's mother-in-law waiting for Gu Xiao to go out, Mrs. Zhou walked around the room a few times, made up her mind, and beckoned Lan Ruo to come over and command:
"You go to the back, call Mama Zhou in, just say that I can't sleep, ask her to come in and gossip, no matter who asks, just say this, you can't say more than a word"
Lan Ruo hurriedly agreed, went out with the lantern, and called someone behind.
Mrs. Zhou was anxiously looking forward to Mama Zhou, so she withdrew from everyone, pulled Mama Zhou to the inner room, and said in a low voice:
"You find a reason, don't limit anything, hurry up and go out of the house, at this time, you will leave the house immediately, go to the Runan Mansion to find the princess, just say what I said, please ask her to go to Yan's house early tomorrow morning to propose to Xiao Er"
Mama Zhou was startled, and looked at Mrs. Zhou with a stunned face, and Mrs. Zhou was impatient to explain more to her, so she only continued:
"There is only one young lady in the Yan family, and you are not afraid of mistakes, you only remember that tonight, before dawn, you have to see the princess no matter what, and you must let the princess come to the door at dawn tomorrow to propose her relatives, you must not delay If this letter is delayed, this matter is delayed, you don't want to see me again"
Mrs. Zhou said heavily and sternly, Mama Zhou suddenly understood, was overjoyed, and nodded hurriedly,
"Madame, don't worry, even if the slave maid fights for her life, she can't delay Madame's major affairs, this can be related to the future of the young master and the future of the Gu family."
Mrs. Zhou nodded with satisfaction, and after two more sentences, Mama Zhou hurriedly withdrew.
Mrs. Zhou stood at the door of the main house, watching Mama Zhou go out of the courtyard, her heart was hot and cold for a while, and she lay on the bed uncertainly, secretly reciting the Buddha and asking for the blessing of the Bodhisattva.
In the end, the ancestor's surname is Li, and in the end he protects his mother's family, and he actually pressures her to order Xiao Nuan to Xiao Er, not that Xiao Nuan is bad, not that she dislikes Xiao Nuan, such a sensible child, she also loves and likes it, but this family is really unworthy
This Miss Yan family, such a portal is a good match
Early the next morning, Gu Xiao got up early, Mrs. Zhou **** didn't sleep, but she didn't get up early, she slowly freshened up, picked and changed a few clothes, but went out a little later than usual, and took Gu Xiao to Mingyuan Hall to ask for peace.
Outside Mingyuan Hall, Mrs. Zhou paused and whispered to Gu Xiao,
"There's no rush on this, don't speak first, just wait for me to say."
Gu Xiao hurriedly nodded in agreement.
The two entered the house, invited An, and had breakfast together, Li Xiaonuan retired to Qingyi Pavilion, Mrs. Zhou gave a cup of tea to Mrs. Li, and she also held a cup of tea, and drank a few sips slowly, before laughing:
"Mother, I had a great joy yesterday, because it was late, and I didn't dare to disturb you."
