"What is the old man anxious about," Mrs. Nalan has been well recently, bathing, and is smearing osmanthus oil on her hair by the maid, and said with a smile: "Yue girl has kissed me since she was a child, and she has lived in our house day and month." It's just that there was no one in the house to cook later, so I was estranged. ”

Nalan Mingzhu sat down on the embroidery pier next to the mirror, twisted her beard and said: "At this time and that time, she was still young and untroubled, but now she is a big girl, and it would be too unseemly to avoid suspicion like this." ”

Mrs. Nalan slowly took the silver hairpin and picked the peach blossom balsam and sipped it in the palm of her hand, and rubbed it evenly with both hands on her well-maintained neck: "Then I will make it clear to her tomorrow, tell her to avoid suspicion, don't come again, okay?" ”

Nalan Mingzhu hurriedly said: "That's not what it means to be a husband. Seeing that the Lu family is gone, it is a matter of time before Rong Ruo remarries, the sister of the Niu Colu family is the queen, and the family has no character to choose, and it is even much higher than the Lu family. ”

Mrs. Nalan turned to her husband and said, "What is the master worried about?" Just push the boat down the river. To put it mildly, the queen mother grew up with me, I naturally understand her thoughts, if Rong Yue is interested in Donglang, the queen mother naturally has a way. In addition, don't forget, sir, the rules released in the former palace...... The draft is to select the thirteen to seventeen-year-old girls in the Eight Banners, and it will be three years later to enter the palace to be selected. ”

"Madame's words are reasonable," Nalan Mingzhu pondered, "but it is better to have words from above." Otherwise, for fear of causing trouble...... "It's not that he hasn't been found out for harboring a show girl or being selected as a substitute."

Mrs. Nalan knew that her husband was standing tall in the court and was a very popular minister, and it was because of this careful and cautious personality that she smiled and said, "Look at what the master said, am I such a useless person?" A few days ago, I went to the palace as a wife to probe the queen's mother...... "She intended to sell Guanzi, but she only took a jade cob to comb her sideburns, and after her husband's repeated urging, she said: "The two hit it off." ”

Nalan Mingzhu breathed a sigh of relief and said, "If so, it will be a blessing for Madame." He stood up, walked to the Rosewood Duobao Pavilion and picked out an ancient book in his hand, then turned his head and asked, "What does Donglang mean by this?" ”

Mrs. Nalan was looking at the silver mirror carefully at the fine lines at the corners of her eyes, and was slightly stunned when she heard this, and said lightly: "Such a good girl, what else does he have to say." ”

Nalan Mingzhu sighed: "He has a deep relationship with his daughter-in-law, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to accept it for a while." ”

Mrs. Nalan was a little angry at the mention of this, and said, "What should I do? Although Rong Yue is my niece's daughter, I am not pure towards her, such a beautiful appearance, gentle temperament, good family background, and proper cooking, do you have any grievances against him? Does he really want to learn to live in mourning for three years like a long live lord," said this and smiled coldly: "It also depends on whether people wait or not, but I heard the letter, Prince Chengze's brother Shuose and Prince Jian's Jidu family have intentions, if I don't give Rong Ruo a seat first, I'm afraid that the prince will invite the lord to eat and drink." ”

Seeing that his wife was angry, Nalan Mingzhu hurriedly put down the book and comforted her: "Madame, don't worry, I'm just asking." I am worried about the affairs outside, and the affairs at home are naturally all up to my wife. ”

Mrs. Nalan was slightly discouraged, secretly thinking about this in her heart, and heard people talk about it a few times, Rong Yue kindly greeted her son, and the unfilial son either said a word, or left people on the side and ignored it, what is going on. If you have time, you have to persuade him, otherwise you will regret it sooner or later.

In this way, after February and March, it was winter, although there was no snowfall, and the thick felt curtain to resist the wind was hung on the Niu Co Lu Mansion early.

Qinglian pushed the door back to the house, and brought a stream of cold air from outside the house to blow in, and Nankang did needlework and Xuan a spirit, and scolded: "You girl, you can't have a tail behind your buttocks." ”

Qinglian turned around and slammed the door, walked to the kang in a few steps and wrung her handkerchief silently.

He Xuan did needlework for half a day, and he was happy to rest his eyes, and asked, "What's wrong?" Miss Qinglian is so temperamental. ”

Qinglian couldn't help but rub her, broke her skills, and said to Hexuan: "Sister has time to persuade Gege, but I don't know what kind of arrangement the people below have arranged our Gege." ”

This was the Wuwu house where their maids lived, although she had two of them, but the wall had ears, and He Xuan asked in a low voice: "What are you talking about, there is no one to put a door on your mouth." ”

Qinglian snorted a little bit before she said: "I'm really angry, I see that we are good bullies, Mrs. Nalan is too, and so is Uncle Nalan." We can't see it even if we are simple-minded. ”

At this moment, even He Xuan couldn't figure it out, Qinglian sat down on the kang and said: "Sister Yilan is so honest, and Sister is such a crystal-hearted person, can't you see it, it has been spread all over the bottom, saying that Mrs. Nalan is in charge, and Sister Taoyao is going to be the person in the uncle's room." ”

He Xuan was taken aback, and said repeatedly: "Where did you hear this?" "They are the maids that Rong Yue relies on, they have always been more decent than others, and similarly, they are also tied to Rong Yue in this life, after Rong Yue and Nalan Rongruo's family affairs were acquiesced, she also thought about what she would do in the future, they are different from Yilan, they have no foundation in Niu Co Lu Mansion, and Xuan is arrogant, and has always looked down on the servants in the house, Qinglian does not want to stay in the house because of Faka, so they have their own plans.

He Xuan thought silently in her heart, Fu Ge'er is the eldest grandson of the Nalan family, and now he is called Tao Yao to serve, and he is more and more dependent on Tao Yao, but Tao Yao is an outsider after all, even if he is loyal to Fu Ge'er, he can't help but let Nalan Mingzhu and his wife rest assured, only by turning her into his own person, then the best way is to open his face and make a room......

"I don't know, when this big grandmother was seriously ill earlier, she didn't want to choose someone in the room for Uncle Nalan." He Xuan groaned.

At this time and then, when the eldest lady was sick, she climbed into the uncle's bed, and she had no conscience. Sister Taoyao saw that her son was tall, and she was not used to seeing the servants of the people in the house. Mrs. Nalan threw this hot potato to our Gege, and we took it stupidly. Qinglian said indignantly: "This is good, we are all looking at our kindness and bullying who change the law." ”

He Xuan got off the kang shoes, buttoned the button and said, "Gege is afraid that he hasn't stopped yet, let's go and take a look." ”

Qinglian hurriedly followed, Rong Yue coaxed the rich brother to sleep, carefully stuffed the baby's little hand into the quilt, returned to the big kang outside and picked up the half-read Zizhi Tongjian, seeing that He Xuan was in a hurry, he couldn't help but be curious, and asked, "It's so late, what's the matter?" ”
