CHAPTER XXXVIII

Empress Yuan wants a daughter, and everyone in the capital knows it. Just from how she dotes on her niece Ruyi, you can see it.

But at this time, Yuan Lu was still stunned for a moment before saying, "Niangniang wants to recognize her goddaughter?" That's a big deal. ”

At this time, she didn't even shout 'eldest sister', but shouted just her identity. The queen mother recognizes her daughter, not to mention the princess, she is not a county lord but also a county lord, and she has to have a title and a food estate, which has to go through the imperial court, which is not child's play.

This is not a story in the excerpts, you can recognize it by looking at a girl you like.

Empress Yuan saw her like this, and added: "It's not me who collects it, you collect it." ”

Duchess Chengguo put away her surprise at this time, "I am happy with Runrun, and Ruyi also has a good relationship with her, the little girl lost her mother early, it is really pitiful, and it hurts, but ......"

But how could her eldest sister suddenly have such an idea?

Duchess Chengguo couldn't figure it out for a while.

Empress Yuan said: "On the one hand, it is to make up for that bastard boy, on the other hand, Master Ye is also the prince and the prince now, I heard the prince say, Master Ye is a little lonely, I am also thinking about walking around there more these days, and I can also contact their feelings." ”

Ye Ling had been promoted to the crown prince not long ago, but he still served in Wenyuan Pavilion. Although the rank of a scholar is lower than that of the crown prince, the cabinet is the highest level of policy discussion organization of the Dayao Dynasty and the largest authority in the country, so in fact, this position is more important than that of the crown prince.

Ye Purlin is the team that the emperor trained for the crown prince, and Empress Yuan certainly values it very much.

Duchess Chengguo was willing, but she still said, "I want to go back and discuss with Ruyi." You know her personality, too. ”

The two of them are only sisters, and they are not considered to be the queen's decree, so the Duchess of Chengguo has a reason to retreat.

Of course, Empress Yuan would not persecute her, and she also knew that Ruyi was a little domineering, so she nodded and agreed.

When the Duchess of Chengguo went back, she said the same thing.

Ruyi's personality, usually the things that belong to her own at home, are disposed of by her father and mother quietly, and she will be a little unhappy in her heart, let alone admit such a big thing as her daughter.

Duchess Chengguo knew in her heart that although Empress Yuan discussed with her like a family, the identity of the queen was there, and the Yuan family and the Chengguo Mansion both enjoyed the honor and favor brought by this identity, so they naturally had to share her worries.

It's just that I'm not sure what Ruyi's attitude is, in case of trouble......

But Ruyi actually agreed. And he took the hand of the Duchess of Chengguo with great interest and said, "My mother has such an idea, why didn't she say it earlier?" So Runrun and I are sisters? Can we also get her a room in my yard, and she can come and live in the future when she is free......"

I began to think more than anyone else in the future.

Empress Yuan was sincerely happy when she saw her, and she was relieved in her heart. She likes that little girl, Ruyi also likes it, and she can also share her worries for Queen Yuan.

Of course, Cheng Guogong was not in her consideration at all.

So when Duchess Chengguo turned around, she first asked people to prepare gifts for the little girl.

The day after returning from the palace, the Duchess of Chengguo went to Yefu next to Ruyi at nine o'clock.

Ruyi's wind and cold have been better for most of the time, but she still has some nasal voices and some runny nose when she speaks, so the Duchess of Chengguo asked her to bring a veil.

Ruyi held back at home for a few days, one was bored, and the other was missing Runrun, so naturally whatever her mother said.

When she arrived at Ye Mansion, Duchess Chengguo exchanged a few words with the old lady, and then went to Runrun's courtyard with Ruyi.

Runrun is still lying on the bed right now, because his body is not well, most of the ice basins in the house have been removed, and only a few are left in the corner.

Hearing that Duchess Chengguo and Ruyi were coming, Runrun was about to get up from the bed immediately.

Lu Qinglan was afraid that she would go out, and she suffered from heat stroke again, so she said that she would not be allowed to get up.

When the eldest and the younger were arguing, the Duchess of Chengguo had already entered the house with Ruyi.

When Duchess Chengguo saw Runrun, she looked at her face a little not very good, and there was still some coarse between her eyebrows, even if the second prince was a nephew, she couldn't help complaining. How can you make such a lively and lovely girl sick?

"Runrun, are you better?" Ruyi has already rushed to sit down.

Duchess Chengguo blamed her for 'no rules'.

Runrun shouted 'Auntie', and was about to get out of bed to greet Duchess Chengguo, Duchess Chengguo smiled and excused her salute, and said, "I came to see you with Runrun, so you don't need to be so polite." ”

said that Lu Qinglan was exempted from the courtesy, and greeted her.

"How is Runrun doing these days, I heard that it will be hot at night?"

Lu Qinglan nodded, and said with some concern: "Mrs. Lao is worried, the imperial doctor said that it is not tight, saying that this fever is the body's response to the disease, as long as it is overheated, drinking medicine, it should be completely subsided in two days." ”

Duchess Chengguo nodded, "The child's fever is slow, and it is moist and hot and cold." Call more people to watch at night. ”

Lu Qinglan smiled softly and bitterly, "I watched it myself at night, and when I started the heat, I wringed a cold handkerchief and put it on her." ”

Duchess Chengguo took a closer look, only to find that under the cover of her fat powder, there was a heavy green shadow under her eyelids. Runrun's aunt really loves her.

Over there, Ruyi had already bitten her ears with Runrun. The two didn't know what they were talking about, and they made a mess of it.

Duchess Chengguo watched the two little girls talking and laughing beside her, and couldn't help but be infected, laughed along, and asked what Runrun had done and played at home in the past few days. Runrun answered one by one, and also said something for a while.

As if the two little girls were not enough, the Duchess of Chengguo turned to Lu Qinglan and said, "Leave them together, please go with me to the old lady." ”

The Duchess of Chengguo was very polite when she spoke to Lu Qinglan, who had no grade. Lu Qinglan was the way of nature, so she called the maid to come in and said a few words, and she went out with the Duchess of Chengguo-

"Goddaughter?" After Duchess Chengguo explained her intentions, the old lady's eyes widened.

Not only was she surprised, but Lu Qinglan and Su Shi next to her didn't react for a while.

Duchess Chengguo continued: "To tell you the truth, I was very happy to see Runrun a few times ago. Recently, I heard that Runrun was sick, and I was even more worried. It's not just me, it's the queen mother in the palace, and she specially sent the imperial doctor over. It's also moist and pleasing, and when people see it, they can't wait to come to their side and love it......"

She praised Runrun, and the old lady couldn't help but nod slightly, her granddaughter was cute, and the old lady still agreed very much.

"Besides, whether Runrun has a good relationship with us, it is good for the two families to be closer to the two children. I just thought, let's talk to you first, and see if you will let me get closer to Runrun......"

If this is said by someone else, the old lady must first think about what the other party has in his stomach. But these words came out of the mouth of the Duchess Chengguo, the sister of the current queen's mother, and the old lady didn't think that the other party would have ulterior motives.

The old lady is only a second-grade old, and she is one grade higher than the Duchess of Chengguo. The status of the two in the circle of wealthy women in the capital is even more different. Since ancient times, only the lower ones have tried their best to please the higher-ranking people, and I have not heard of any high-ranking people who have bad intentions to approach the lower ones. I think it's just because of my love for Runrun.

The old lady was still thinking about it, and the Su family next to her had already spoken first: "Madam is willing to accept Runrun's goddaughter, that is Runrun's creation." There is nothing in our family that does not rejoice. ”

The last time the Duchess of Chengguo came to confront the county lord of Jing'an, the Su family didn't dare to say a word next to her. Duchess Chengguo felt that the Su family was too childish and had no good impression of her, at this time, the Su family handed over a word, and the Duchess Chengguo just nodded, did not answer her words, and continued to say to the old lady: "You are her grandmother, this matter is up to you." ”

The old lady was also not happy with her daughter-in-law's snatching of white, but she didn't come out immediately, and only said to the Duchess of Chengguo: "Madame carries love, of course our family is willing." It's just that Runrun is a little ignorant by the family's anti-love, and if there is a collision with Mrs. in the future, I hope Mrs. will take care of one or two. ”

Duchess Chengguo shook her hand, "That can't be, where can the old lady talk." Since she is accepted as a goddaughter, it is no different from Ruyi. If she makes a mistake, I can only guide her to correct it, and I will definitely not be angry with her in my heart. Even in the future, her marriage, where I can make a lot of energy, I will never shirk. ”

As soon as these words came out, the eyes of the old lady, Lu Qinglan and Su Shi present lit up.

It seems that this is not just a goddaughter in name! The meaning of Duchess Chengguo's words is that she really wants to love Runrun. With such a lady who is willing to lift Runrun, Runrun's future marriage will be able to go to a higher level. Although they don't want Runrun to find a rich family, after all, the Ye family has a shallow foundation in the capital, and they can't be compared with a noble lady like the Duchess of Chengguo, who holds all kinds of resources.

The old lady and Lu Qinglan were naturally happy for Runrun in their hearts, but the Su family couldn't help but think in their hearts, the four sisters in the family, Zhen Zhen is the daughter of the county lord of Jing'an, and their identities are different. Now that even Runrun has met a nobleman, if he is willing to give them a big house one or two in the future, Yaju's marriage will not have to worry!

Although several people had different ideas, they were happy for a while.
