Chapter 167
Mrs. Zhu mentioned that she would first ask Zhu Lu to ask the elders in the clan to say goodbye, and Uncle Zhu deserved to have been in the court all his life, and said with a smile, "When I first came back, my son's body was a little unbearable. Brother Lu mentioned it to me in private, thinking that he would go to the elders of the clan to say goodbye first, but I said that he was a child's house, and it seemed that he had neglected the elders of the clan by himself. In the past two days, my son has also rested, and I will take him to a few uncles and brothers' houses to visit the door and teach him to recognize his familiar face, and he will be close to him in the future. In one sentence, Zhu Lu had not gone to greet the elders of the clan before. Zhu Lu, a junior, came to the door, and naturally he was not closer than Uncle Zhu, the third servant of Zhishi, who took him to recognize his relatives.
Old Mrs. Zhu smiled, "That's good." ”
Then the mother and son discussed a lot of things, and by the time Uncle Zhu returned to his courtyard after dinner, it was already nightfall.
When Mrs. Zhu saw her husband coming back, she hurriedly asked, "Have you eaten yet?" "Mrs. Zhu is not very pompous, and she doesn't need her daughter-in-law to serve on the side when she eats, she uses her own clothes.
"I used it with my mother." Uncle Zhu said, "Let someone go to Brother Lu's courtyard and say something, and tomorrow I will take him to the clan to walk around." ”
Mrs. Zhu served her husband and sat down, Yahuan brought tea, Mrs. Zhu personally took it and handed it to her husband, and said with a smile, "Didn't you say that you would have a wine at home for two days?" Why do you want to go out tomorrow? "The husband is a third-class retirement, a first-class high-ranking official in the clan, Mrs. Zhu has rarely returned to her hometown, but she is quite arrogant in her heart.
Uncle Zhu took a sip of tea, "The wine at home is the wine at home, we haven't come back for a long time, the clansmen are far away, so we should go around more." ”
Seeing her husband say this, Mrs. Zhu didn't say anything anymore, and instructed Yahuan to go to Zhu Luyuan to spread the word. Uncle Zhu drank two sips of tea and changed into a homely loose robe, Mrs. Zhu wanted to speak and stopped, Uncle Zhu asked, "What's wrong, but something?" ”
Mrs. Zhu sent the maids down and sighed, "I heard something, it's not good, and I can't help but discuss it with you." Then Mrs. Zhu said truthfully, "I heard that Brother Zhuang and Changqing discussed ...... marriage before" Observing her husband's face, Mrs. Zhu continued, "This matter is okay, most of the family affairs are providential, maybe the two children are not fatal." Also, didn't it mean that Changqing opened a pharmacy outside to sit for consultation. This practice of medicine to save people is also a good deed, but I heard that it seems that Changqing often goes to Hualou to see some girls......"
"Alright." Uncle Zhu interrupted his wife's words and said, "Let's talk about Brother Lu'er's family affairs, and I will talk about it later, it's not just the Zhao family." His son and mother are all in the imperial capital, and it is the same to find relatives in the imperial capital. ”
As soon as these words came out, a flash of surprise flashed in Mrs. Zhu's eyes, and she asked again, "Didn't the master say that the old lady is very fond of Changqing, I think the master also likes her very much." This is what Mrs. Zhu is puzzled about. Zhao Changqing is indeed outstanding when he says it, and his words and demeanors are not bad, but judging by his deeds, even if the people in the border city are open, there are few girls in the boudoir who can do Zhao Changqing's level. Zhao Changqing is such a direct appearance outside the business shop, big families always have to hesitate, not to mention that she also went to the flower building to see some prostitutes, women who are a little pedantic will not marry this daughter-in-law. I don't know why the old lady and the old lady treat her so differently? Could it be because of Zhao Changqing's previous relationship with the Chu family, but the Chu family is gone after all. Speaking of which, Zhao Changqing's luck is not very good, and his fortune is limited. Mrs. Zhu thought secretly.
Uncle Zhu perfunctory a few words to his wife, and Mrs. Zhu was satisfied as long as she was sure that her precious grandson did not have to marry a girl from a hundred families. The old couple talked for a while, and didn't talk about it in the middle of the night.
Zhao Changqing played with Mrs. Zhu until August 13, and he was about to leave.
Mrs. Zhu was quite reluctant, Zhao Changqing smiled, "I was in a hurry when I came, looking at the Mid-Autumn Festival, the guys in the shop have been busy for more than half a year, and nothing else, I always have to buy a few packs of moon cakes." I have always done these things. When I have time, I'll go to the other courtyard to find my grandfather to play. ”
Mrs. Zhu smiled, "Do you think the Zhu family is boring?" ”
"I didn't say that, it was all said by the grandfather." Zhao Changqing smiled.
Mrs. Zhu stretched, "If you have something, you can go and get busy, after the Mid-Autumn Festival, I will also go back to the other courtyard." If you have time to go to my courtyard, there is a hot spring in my courtyard, and then you will be taught what it means to enjoy life. ”
Zhao Changqing smiled, "I must go." "For the first time in her two lives, she has seen such a free and easy person as Mrs. Zhu, and she is really free and easy. Mrs. Zhu's famous saying is that it doesn't matter if you are stupid for a lifetime, and when it is critical, it is enough to be at ease if you do one or two things right in your life. As for whether children and grandchildren are filial or not, Mrs. Zhu's opinion is that Lao Tzu is not only rich, but also more useful, and the little rabbit cubs have a bad life without Lao Tzu, who will not be filial? The old man only cares about his son, and he doesn't even look at his grandchildren, let alone his grandchildren. Zhao Changqing thought about it, maybe it was enough for his sons to adjust it, but what about the grandchildren, the old man couldn't enjoy the blessings of the grandchildren, so he didn't care much. Of course, there are also reasons why the old man did not meet the younger generation who fell in love. Zhao Changqing couldn't help but feel a little stinky and beautiful in her heart, the old man liked her very much, she could feel it. It stands to reason that she and the old man met more than ten years ago, and only saw each other for the second time before yesterday.
Or, this is "gray hair as new, as good as ever".
Zhao Changqing wants to leave, and it is impossible for Zhao Rong to stay alone. Mrs. Zhu thought that Zhao Changqing had seen some signs, but the two families were not married, and seeing that the Mid-Autumn Festival was imminent, it was really not good to keep more Zhao sisters.
There was Zhu Zhuang in the past, and now there is Zhu Lu, although the Zhu family did not mention it, but Zhao Changqing has always been very smart, and the Zhu family does not say that it does not mean that she can't guess. Mrs. Zhu felt a little sorry in her heart, and rewarded the Zhao sisters with some things, and gave Zhao Changqing an extra palm-sized box of various gems, and said with a smile, "Let's play with it." ”
The gems of this box were in good condition, Mrs. Zhu and Mrs. Zhu Liu's eyes were a little hot, and Zhao Changqing hurriedly excused herself, "Ancestor, this is really too precious." ”
Mrs. Zhu smiled, "What is this called precious, what is given to you is for you." ”
Mrs. Zhu smiled, "Yes, the old lady rewarded it, you can continue, don't waste the old lady's thoughts." "I said in my heart, I knew that this was the case, and I should have brought a little granddaughter over. It seems that the old lady still has a lot of good things in her hands.
Mrs. Zhu Liu also chimed in, "Just take it, don't be polite." ”
Mrs. Zhu smiled, "I heard that you used the box last time, and you used it well." This box was meant to be given to you, hold it, and use it as you wish. As he spoke, he took it from Yahuan's hand and handed it to Zhao Changqing in person. Zhao Changqing had no choice but to take it and said, "I understand the ancestor's intentions. Mrs. Zhu has always valued her very much, and has never treated her badly from beginning to end, and she has also relied on Mrs. Zhu's box of jewelry to get through the difficulties. It's the matter of Zhu Zhuang and Zhu Lu, and what does it have to do with the old lady.
Zhao Changqing's words made Mrs. Zhu sigh in her heart, she really took a fancy to Zhao Changqing, such a girl, who married who's blessing, but the Zhu family did not have such blessings. The Zhu family does not have such blessings, she still hopes that Zhao Changqing can meet a man who appreciates and cherishes her, and lives a smooth life.
Since the Zhu family said goodbye and returned home, the two sisters went to greet the elders first. Seeing that Zhao Changqing's complexion was still good, Mrs. Zhao was relieved and said with a smile, "It can be seen that things are going well, yesterday your eldest uncle brought Brother Lu to talk, and I also asked about you and Ah Rong." ”
Ling smiled, "Changqing has a good complexion, and Ah Rong seems to have lost weight." ”
Zhao Rong touched her face and said with a smile, "I only lived for two days, how can I lose weight?" It was my mother who didn't see me for two days before she said that. ”
Ling smiled and asked, "What have you done in the past two days?" It is also the intention of taking the opportunity to inquire whether the Zhu family has married.
Zhao Rong smiled, "Sister Yinling and Sister Xi have returned to their parents' house, except for talking to their ancestors, it is a joke of the sisters." My sister is in the grandfather's courtyard, so I don't know. ”
Zhao Changqing smiled, "It's to talk to the old man." ”
Zhao Rong smiled and asked, "It is said that the master has a strange temper, sister, is the master easy to get along with?" ”
Zhao Changqing didn't know why Zhao Rong asked these stupid words, whether the master was good or not, why did she say it to Zhao Rong. Zhao Changqing smiled, "The master is very kind." ”
Mrs. Zhao smiled, "It's rare for the master to fall in love with anyone, he likes you." ”
Zhao Changqing smiled, "It's fourteen tomorrow, and the Mid-Autumn Festival shop is on holiday, I have to go to the pharmacy to take a look, and see what to buy in the Mid-Autumn Festival and send it to everyone." Mother, can we have all the things for the Mid-Autumn Festival at home? If there's anything that doesn't fit in with you, I'll buy it together. ”
Ling smiled, "It's already been done, how many people in your shop want to give a Boxing ceremony?" We have melons and fruits, don't go out to buy them, just walk from home. Buy the rest for yourself. ”
Zhao Changqing smiled, "Then buy some more dim sum fruits, and pair them with some chicken and fish elbow hair." ”
Ling said, "You are really generous. ”
Zhao Changqing smiled, "The emperor is not short of hungry soldiers." These little bucks are nothing. ”
While she was talking, Mrs. Yahuan brought things in, and Ling asked, "Isn't it that the old ancestor has rewarded you with things again?" ”
Zhao Changqing smiled, "One person has a red gold head, and a few horses to make clothes, and the old grandmother gave me a box of gems." Zhao Changqing said, Yongfu opened the box and showed it to Mrs. Zhao and the Ling family. Ling Shi exclaimed, "It's really a good thing." The eldest daughter of the secret path is really born with wealth and luck, and she smiled and said, "It's so valuable, but it shouldn't be accepted from the ancestors." ”
"I didn't want to accept it, but my ancestor said that I knew that I used it last time, and it was specially given to me, so I had to accept it." It is difficult for Zhao Changqing to describe her psychology, but she said so.
Ling raised his eyebrows and said, "That's the heart of the old ancestor." Thinking that the pears are very good now, the Ling family didn't say much, and advised, "Since it is for you, you take it carefully, don't waste the hearts of the elders." Mrs. Zhu knew that Zhao Changqing had paid off the debt with the jewelry she gave her, and the Ling family was very happy. Now that Zhao Changqing was given this box of jewelry, the Ling family was only left with a surprise, and smiled, "The ancestors have treated you well since you were a child, and you have to be more filial to the old man." "The anger at the matter of Zhuzhuang in front of me has gone a little. Thinking that Zhu Zhuang's eight lambs acted rudely, it had nothing to do with the ancestors.
Zhao Rong was really gloomy about this box of jewelry, she never thought that it was worse than Zhao Changqing, and that her future prospects were far better than Zhao Changqing's. But for some reason, reliving this life, whether it is the elders in the family, relatives and friends, it seems that they attach great importance to Zhao Changqing.
It's really unconvincing.
Zhao Rong pursed her lips slightly, and swept towards Zhao Changqing with a cool gaze. Unexpectedly, Zhao Changqing was sitting upright looking at her, with a determined and deep expression. Zhao Rong's heart sank slightly.
Zhao Changqing kept seeing that Zhao Rong was uncomfortable, and Zhao Rong asked with a smile, "What does my sister do to see me?" ”
"Nothing." Zhao Changqing smiled, "Grandmother, mother, I went back to the house to sort out the things I brought back, and then I went to the shop." ”
Mrs. Zhao smiled, "Let's go and see, come back early in the evening, what do you want to eat, I will ask the kitchen to prepare." ”
Zhao Changqing smiled, "The master said, eat light and live longer at night, and it was good to eat a vegetarian fried mushroom at the grandfather's place yesterday." If it is a mushroom at home, ask Sister-in-law Liu to add one. ”
Ling Shi smiled, "It's simple. You just remember to come back and eat. "Even if you don't have it at home, it's too late to ask someone to go out and buy it.
After saying a few words, Zhao Changqing went back to his house. Mrs. Zhao also sent Zhao Rong to rest, Zhao Rong sat in front of the window in a daze, it was the Mid-Autumn Festival, the weather was getting colder, the windows were closed tightly, and the house was obviously a little stuffy. Zhao Rong asked Yahuan to open some windows, and Xiaoyahuan persuaded, "Girl, it's as cold as a day outside, and now the kang hasn't been burned, so don't open the window, be careful of catching a cold......
Before Xiao Yahuan's voice fell, Zhao Rong was already impatient and reprimanded, "If you open the window, open the window, where did you get these words!" ”
Xiao Yahuan didn't dare to say anything, so she hurriedly opened the window, and saw that Zhao Rong was not in a good mood, so she ran out to do work. For a while, Yihua brought fragrant tea and persuaded in a low voice, "The girl will be in time for next year, what is the good future in the house?" The girl could crush her to death. The girl thinks about it, but this reason? Putting down the tea, Yihua closed the window lightly, and said, "The slave maid took some fruit and put it in the house, and the fruit was fragrant, and the house smelled good for a while." The wind is cold at night, and the girl is frozen, and the slaves and maids should die. ”
Zhao Rong suddenly let out a long sigh: Yes, Zhao Changqing's reputation has long been bad, and it is impossible for her to marry any good family again. And next year, Cousin Teng will definitely be promoted. Next year will also be the age of oneself and the age. Perhaps, he doesn't have to give up Cousin Teng to another woman like he did in his previous life.
Yihua's lips moved, and he said softly, "Slave and maid look at Young Master Lu...... Yihua is a smart person, he only said half a sentence, and then he didn't say more, just to give Zhao Rong a wake-up call. Thinking of Zhu Lu, Zhao Rong frowned at first, but then thinking of Zhu Lu's background and character, she couldn't help but move slightly, the Zhu family is a big family, not to mention that Zhu Lu is the grandson of the long house. Zhao Rong sank his face and said, "No need to mention it again." "It's just that I lived in Zhu's house for two days, and whether this matter is successful or not has to be said.
Yihua hurriedly responded, Zhao Rong took a sip of the teacup, what her mother said was right, Yihua's heart is indeed getting bigger, she is just meeting Zhu Lu for the first time, Yihua will give birth to these ideas.
Indeed, the female university is not staying.
