Chapter 288 Dragon Boat Festival

Listening to Su's words, Liu Ruoxi and Lloyd's quickly exchanged glances.

"Mother, if someone asks what is urgent in the seventh sister's family, what should the daughters-in-law say?" Lowe's cautiously asked Su.

"I was about to tell you." Su said to Lloyd's, "Your second uncle's mother is infected with a seasonal illness, you prepare a gift, and send it over in the next two days to see your second aunt." Just say what I mean, and look at your seventh sister, so that she doesn't worry too much, and she doesn't work too hard. If there is anything, just send someone to tell me. ”

said that Su Qingnuan's mother was sick, so Su Qingnuan went back. This is naturally a cover-up. And Su kept saying that he would take Su Qingnuan back again, which made Lowe's go to see Su Qingnuan and Su Qingnuan's mother. In order to hide people's eyes, Su Shi can be said to have done too thoughtfully.

I hope that the Su family's arrangement is just to hide people's eyes, Liu Ruoxi was thinking in her heart, and suddenly a little girl outside came in to report, saying that the princess came in with Rong.

The princess is still weak, it is the weather of early summer, Liu Ruoxi and others have already changed into a single skirt, but the princess is still wearing a padded jacket skirt, and her body is tightly wrapped. Rong Jin is also dressed like the princess, a small/face is almost a little blue, and he doesn't look energetic.

When the princess came to the door, she took Rong Jin to salute the old prince and the Su family. Su Shi hurriedly asked someone to help the mother and son up, and the old prince was very happy when he saw Rong coming in, and beckoned the nurse to hug Rong Jin over. The old prince hugged Rong Jin in his arms, touched Rong Jin's head, and whispered to Rong Jin.

The princess is not in good health, and the Su family did not propose to take Rong into Chunhui Hall to raise her, but she was rejected by the princess. On the issue of raising and teaching Rongjin, the attitude of the princess has always been very tough, even when she is seriously ill and dying, the princess is not at ease to hand over Rongjin to anyone.

Liu Ruoxi watched coldly. Don't look at the Su family, they are always very concerned about Rong Jin, and they ask for warmth, but the Su family has never called Rong Jin like the old prince. In the palace, the princess only allowed Rong Jin to be close to Rong Chengyi and the old prince.

found this, and then recalled that when she came to the palace, she happened to meet Rong Jin being carried by the nurse to the lake in the garden, and the princess chased after her, and the attitude towards Rong Chenghan and her, Liu Ruoxi faintly understood some things.

Because of this, although she tried her best to find Lao Shan Ginseng to save the life of the princess, she never tried to get close to the princess. I won't try to get close to Rongjin.

"You're just getting better, you should be recuperating in the house more, why did you come here again. I also brought Jin'er, isn't it uncomfortable to enter the past two days? Facing the princess, Su's attitude became more kind, and he said to the princess in a gentle voice.

"It's okay to just walk around the concubine." The princess leaned back on the back of the chair, and the little girl added two more brocade cushions, so that she sat more stable. Only then did he say slowly, "Jin'er was better just now, bring him to greet his father and mother." ”

Rong Jin sat in the arms of the old prince, and the old prince asked him. He just nodded or shook his head, and only occasionally said a word or two in a soft voice. But this also made the old prince very happy.

"Jin'er looks better today." Su Shi smiled and said, "But what do you want to eat?" Just tell me, just get ready. ”

"I've already eaten, and it's not early. If you eat again, I'm afraid that he will not move. The princess said.

Su Shi also nodded, saying that the princess was right.

"Seventh sister......" The princess glanced around, "How can you say that your aunt is sick, let the seventh sister go back, and she never said a word to me." ”

It turned out that Su Qingnuan left and did not say hello in front of the princess.

"Walk in a hurry, your body is like this again, where are you willing to worry about it again." Su Shi said, "It's not like she won't come back, they are all in the capital, and it is very easy for your sisters to meet." ”

"That's what the concubine said. Thanks to the Seventh Sister taking care of me, she is a little empty when she leaves. The princess said.

The princess was just an ordinary sentence, but Su Shi seemed to be extremely moved.

"Good boy, who can have the affection of your sisters. You remember her well, and she also thinks about you, even I am very pleased. ”

The princess came on purpose, obviously to ask about Su Qingnuan. Looking at the answer between the Su family and the princess, people who don't know the inside story will think that the Su family's aunts and nephews and sisters are deeply righteous, happy and beautiful. Who would suspect what would happen between them, or even poison each other?

If it weren't for the fact that she had already mastered a lot of evidence and clues, Liu Ruoxi would have doubted the judgments she made at this moment.

The princess sat for a while, but she was tired and couldn't sit still, so she said goodbye to the old prince and the Su family, and told the nurse to hug Rong Jin, saying that it was not early, Rong Jin was weak, and she wanted to rest early.

The old prince seemed to be a little reluctant to let go of his grandson, but he didn't force him to stay.

Rong Chengyi also got up and took Rong Jin away with the princess. Subsequently, Liu Ruoxi also got up and said goodbye. Out of Chunhui Hall, walked to the fork in the road between Yunshuiju and Xuanhuaju, and said goodbye to Liu Ruoxi.

"The women of the Su family are all unusual." Lloy said this in Liu Ruoxi's ear, and then followed Rong Chengxiang away.

Lloy's words were just talking about Liu Ruoxi's heart, and she decided to stay away from the women of the Su family in the future. She couldn't understand them, she couldn't see through them, and now, she didn't want to understand them.

Chunhui Hall

After Liu Ruoxi and the others left, the old prince also went to the study. Su Shi sat on the couch, his eyes unconsciously fell on the tea cup on the table, and he was speechless for a long time. The little girls all withdrew, and only Mama Xing and Mama Wang, two personal old grandmothers, were still waiting on the side.

After a while, a girl brought a bowl of ginseng soup. Mama Xing hurriedly stepped forward to pick it up and carefully sent it to Su's side.

"Freshly boiled ginseng soup, drink it while it's hot, it's important to take care of yourself." Mama Xing said softly.

While Mama Wang also agreed, she took a handkerchief and spread it on Su's knees.

Only then did Su Shi come back to his senses and took the bowl from Mama Xing's hand. She only drank two sips of ginseng soup, and seemed to be a little unable to drink it, and gently placed the bowl on the low table in front of her. Mama Xing and Mama Wang were busy and stepped forward to comfort.

"What is in the princess's heart, just tell the old slave, it's hard to be stuffy!" The two of them naturally saw that Su had something on his mind, and this was quite heavy. As for what Su Shi's mind is. Others don't know, but the two of them can guess eight/nine.

"Seven girls...... The kid. Su sighed repeatedly.

"She was wronged. I wasn't born of it, but I grew up with it since I was a child. It's not that I feel sorry for her, it's really not that there is no such a lovely child. …… I delayed her! Su Shi was very remorseful.

"Don't think so, princess. The princess loves the seven girls, why don't the seven girls treat the princess as close and filial as a mother. The seventh girl knew that the princess thought so, but she was afraid that it would be uncomfortable. Mama Wang hurriedly said.

"The seventh girl is the most reasonable, and naturally knows that the princess is also for her good. Besides, the princess didn't twist it strongly. The princess doesn't have to suffer like this. Mama Xing said.

The two old grandmothers persuaded Su for a long time, but Su still couldn't let go. But there are some words, even in front of the most confidant old mother. It can only be tacitly understood by everyone, and cannot be said. The princess was able to survive, who dares to say that this is not a good thing. However, this good thing is a disaster for Su Qingnuan.

"I don't believe those rumors. Besides, there is no real evidence. The prince of the world, he is also scruples about people's words, and he cares about the mood of the princess. It's just a pity for the seven girls, who have suffered too many grievances. Su Shi said again.

Mama Wang nodded. also said that Su Qingnuan had suffered a lot of grievances, but fortunately, Su understood Su Qingnuan and felt sorry for Su Qingnuan. Moreover, Su Qingnuan has lived in the palace for a long time. He also took care of the princess with all his heart, took care of Rongjin, and accompanied the Su family to relieve his worries and depression. At the end of the day. Or is it because Su Qingnuan is filial to the Su family.

"There is no more filial child than her. It's not me who says, but my own son can't compare to her. Su said. Now I want to compensate the seven girls, but what compensation do I get? I wronged her too much. This child still has a little benefit, she has suffered such a grievance, and she does not complain to others. Not a word of displeasure, still the same for me. It makes me feel indebted to her! ”

"Two aunts and nephews, what compensation is not compensated. The princess thought of the seven girls in her heart, what else could the seven girls ask for. Mama Wang said.

Su Shi has indeed thought very well for Su Qingnuan, but on the most important matter, Su Shi can't do anything.

"Go and put my set of emerald beaded heads in a box and send them to the seven girls. Haosheng told her not to be wronged. When the limelight is over, I will always plan for her! Su Shi thought about it, and then instructed Mama Wang.

Su Qingnuan left the palace, except for the Su family's sullenness, the other things were not affected. The princess still doesn't go out almost all day, and she takes more medicine than rice every day. However, the situation of the princess was stable, and the prince Rong Chengyi let go of his mind and performed two folds of new plays one after another. When Liu Ruoxi is free, she will take people to Lixiangyuan to listen to a play. Rong Chenghan naturally didn't get jealous anymore because of this, and accompanied Liu Ruoxi to watch it twice. Liu Ruoxi also understands that Rong Chenghan doesn't like this, but whenever Rong Chenghan is at home, she rarely goes to Lixiangyuan.

In a blink of an eye, it was the Dragon Boat Festival, and the banquets held by the palace for several days in a row gradually stopped. Liu Ruoxi saw that the scenery in the garden was just right, and she remembered that she wanted to invite Mrs. Liu, Mrs. Liu and others to come over for a drink and a play. In this matter, Liu Ruoxi naturally had to discuss it with Rong Chenghan first.

Rong Chenghan nodded immediately, Liu Ruoxi was idle at home, and she wanted to communicate more with her parents' relatives, and Rong Chenghan supported it.

After discussing with Rong Chenghan here, Liu Ruoxi came to ask the Su family again. She wanted to invite her relatives to come over and set up two tables of banquets, all of which came out of her private room, and did not need to spend anything on the palace. Liu Ruoxi told Su Shi all these words.

Su Shi still didn't have much energy, but he also nodded.

“…… It's time to have a lot of contacts. The in-laws' wife is free, just come. I should have come forward, but I was ...... in my body, so even if I was invited to come and tell the kitchen to prepare a first-class banquet, why should I come out of your private room. Can't afford the money for these small banquets in the house? ”

"That's not the case. It's a little bit of the daughter-in-law's own heart. The whole house has been busy in the past few days, and it is time to rest. The daughter-in-law arranged it herself, and the mother concubine was relieved. …… When the time comes, if the mother concubine is in good health, please also ask the mother to sit with a face. ”

Liu Ruoxi said this, and Su didn't say anything more.

The next day, Liu Ruoxi sent a car to Liufu, picked up Mrs. Liu Second and Mrs. Liu, and came with Mrs. Liu. and Liu Ruoshan. The three of them are all dressed up very luxuriously, and their complexions are also excellent, which shows that they have been living a very comfortable and proud life recently.

Needless to say, Second Mrs. Liu has a good life in the palace, Liu Yuwen is good at studying, sensible and filial, Mrs. Liu's attitude towards her has also reversed, Second Mrs. Liu has nothing to worry about, and she is very comfortable every day. As for Mrs. Liu San, she came to the door one after another with happy events. First, Liu Yuxiang's marriage was decided. The two parties have already passed the ceremony, and they are just waiting for the marriage next month, and then just a few days ago, Liu Ruoshan's family affairs were also decided.

The youngest son of Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites is seventeen years old, which is the same age as Liu Ruoshan. Chen, the wife of the Ministry of Rites, had met Liu Ruoshan a few times, and she had already thought about marrying her youngest son, but she had not moved, but she had secretly taken a fancy to Liu Ruoshan. As soon as they sent someone to say it, Master Liu San and Mrs. Liu San were very happy, so they settled the family matter.

Liu Ruoxi picked up three people to the second gate, and first went to Yunshuiju to wait for tea. Liu Ruoxi first asked Mrs. Liu why she didn't come.

"I was supposed to come, but I'm old. I didn't sleep well last night, and I didn't have much energy when I woke up this morning, so let's talk about another day. Mrs. Liu replied with a smile.

Mrs. Liu is not particularly fond of going out, but now she is older. There are fewer people who go out to meet customers. Liu Ruoxi also understood in her heart, and only said that she would go back to her parents' house to visit Mrs. Liu in person another day.

"Second sister-in-law, why do I see that our third girl seems to have grown a little bigger?" Mrs. Liu San looked at Liu Ruoxi. Just laughed.

"I look at it too, it looks like I've grown a little taller again." Second Mrs. Liu nodded, and asked Liu Ruoxi how she was doing these days, and if she had any worries or anything.

"Good, nothing." Liu Ruoji sued Mrs. Liu. It's not that she doesn't report good news or bad news, but she's really had a good time lately. The old prince, Rong Chengyi, and Rong Chengxiang are not related to her, although the Su family is not close to her, but after receiving the lesson of the last time, they no longer come to her trouble, Su Qingnuan is gone, and the princess has received her grace, although she is still estranged, but she will not trouble her, and the Lao family is better with her.

"Master Hou?" Mrs. Liu asked.

"Only he ......" Liu Ruoxi frowned, "Mother, third aunt, you have to talk about him for me." How did he promise my father and mother before they got married, but now I'm afraid I've forgotten it. quarreled with me at every turn, and last time, he went to the study, leaving me with no face in the house! ”

Liu Ruoxi complained about Rong Chenghan and hoped that Mrs. Liu Second and Mrs. Liu San would stand up for her. However, when Mrs. Liu Second and Mrs. Liu San heard Liu Ruoxi's words, not only did they not get angry, but they both laughed.

Mrs. Liu laughed for a while, and finally put on a straight face, but she didn't say anything about Rong Chenghan, but counted Liu Ruoxi.

"Don't wronged anyone. He would quarrel with you, it's not that you deliberately made trouble. Even if I don't know about it, I don't believe what you say. Originally, in our family, you were the only one who found fault with him and bullied him, and I know that you are bullying him more and more ruthlessly now. ”

Second Mrs. Liu was completely on Rong Chenghan's side.

"You still came to complain, I almost forgot. Your father also told me to speak well of you. Cheng Han is an old child, unlike you who are sharp-toothed, you are not allowed to bully him into an honest mouth. …… Originally, you didn't take advantage of it, he didn't say anything about you, but you lost your temper first and sent him to live in the study. It's not that he feels sorry for you, and he is afraid that the old prince and the princess will make you feel bad after asking you, so he came back with anger. If you don't remember his kindness to you, you still sue him! ”

Speaking of Rong Chenghan's going to live in the study, the cause was just an inconspicuous little thing, and Liu Ruoxi almost didn't remember it much now. It's just that at that time, he suddenly lost his temper, quarreled a few words, and left Rong Chenghan angrily. Mama Chang came to persuade her, saying that she was wrong, and asked her to ask Rong Chenghan to come back. At that time, Liu Ruoxi had already lost her anger, but she couldn't let go/figure, and she refused to go no matter what she said. Chang Mama told Rong Chenghan in the past, and Rong Chenghan naturally knew that it was not Liu Ruoxi who came to apologize, but he still came back through this step.

If Rong Chenghan really lived in the study that day, Liu Ruoxi could imagine how the people in the house would talk about it, as well as the Su family, she would definitely be asked to go over and count down.

Rong Chenghan was indeed very willing to think about her, but Liu Ruoxi still said that Mrs. Liu was eccentric.

"He must have gone behind my back to forget my father and mother, and now my father and mother are facing him, not me. I'm not done with him! Liu Ruoxi said.

After laughing for a while, Liu Ruoxi inquired about the Su family's side and was free, so she led Mrs. Liu, Mrs. Liu and Liu Ruoshan to Chunhui Hall. Seeing the Su family, everyone saluted and sat down, and said a few words of homely things. Liu Ruoxi said that a banquet had been arranged in the garden, and she also invited Su Shi to drink and listen to the play.

Su waved her hand and refused, saying that she was not in good health, and asked Liu Ruoxi to entertain her relatives in her mother's family. Liu Ruoxi was not reluctant, so she went to invite Lloy's to come again, and a group of people hugged each other and happily went to the garden.

Now that the solar term is just right, everyone has arrived at the lake, and there are already painting boats waiting on the shore. Everyone got on the boat and went straight to the center of the lake. In addition to a small island in the middle of the lake, there is also a stone workshop. The banquet prepared by Liu Ruoxi was placed on the stone workshop in the middle of the lake, (to be continued......)
