Chapter 17: A Feast for the Old Lady's Birthday

'P'*WXC'P''P'*WXC'P' Zhu Yuehua has not seen the people of the Zhu family and has a good impression of the Zhu family, but the reason why he has a good impression of the Zhu family is just because of a family rule of the Zhu family - forty can only be concubines if there are no children. This family rule has been well fulfilled, so at least none of the men in the Zhu family have intercourse or concubines and aunts.

Regardless of character and personality, Zhu Yuehua feels that since being able to fulfill such a family rule well in such a social situation is not a family rule that cannot be broken, then at least the person who does it will not be a weak and disgusting scumbag like He Wenzhao.

Zhu Yuehua's grandfather and grandmother have a total of five children, and Zhu Yuehua's father is the fourth and the second son. Zhu Yuehua ranks second among the daughters of her generation, the cousin in front is much older than Zhu Yuehua, and she has a fifteen-year-old cousin to be married. Therefore, Zhu Yuehua is the only daughter and youngest child of the second master and second lady of the Zhu family, and there are two older brothers above Zhu Yuehua.

Far from being as small as the He family, the Zhu Mansion is much larger than the He Mansion, although there are also reasons for the extra people who live in three rooms.

The housekeeper who received at the door saw the second lady and the second aunt returning to the house, so he naturally immediately instructed the servants to report to the old lady Zhu and the old lady Zhu, and then instructed the servants to lead Zhu Yuehua and He Wenzhao to the courtyard of the old lady Zhu and the old lady Zhu.

Walking in the Zhu Mansion, Zhu Yuehua felt that he couldn't figure out why he had to marry someone like He Wenzhao according to the identity of the host. According to her thoughts, she can live a good life, and it is not necessary to marry someone or not, especially if she marries out, it is not as easy and happy as a person, but Zhu Yuehua understands that it is because this place is like this, and the status of women is too low, how can she respect the social situation of this dynasty, and this is not something she can change by herself.

Zhu Yuehua's mind kept drifting, but He Wenzhao, who was next to her, was still thinking about what kind of method he had to use to divorce this wife and drive this strange and dangerous person out of the He family, as for whether she would harm the Zhu family, it was not within his concern.

But his mother didn't seem to agree with the divorce of his wife, and even his father had hinted that he should not have such thoughts, but they didn't know that his heart was full of fear and insecurity!

He Wenzhao rolled his eyes and looked at Zhu Yuehua, but in an instant, Zhu Yuehua also looked at him, but there was no trace of friendliness in his eyes, but there was oppression and threat. He Wenzhao hurriedly withdrew his gaze, but he secretly wondered in his heart how he was intimidated by such a look.

The servant led Zhu Yuehua and He Wenzhao to a secluded courtyard, they came early, and most of the guests were still here, so the old lady and Mrs. Zhu were not too noisy here. A servant had already come to inform that there were already two maids waiting for Zhu Yuehua at the gate of the courtyard at this time, and when they saw Zhu Yuehua and He Wenzhao, they curtsied and shouted "Second Miss" and "Second Aunt".

The maid gathered Zhu Yuehua and He Wenzhao one after the other, and led them through a long corridor, walked down the stone steps and passed through two corridors, and finally arrived outside the main hall. The courtyard is full of green bamboos, and there is a breeze blowing, and sometimes there is a pleasant sound of hula, but there are no other trees.

"The old lady, the old lady, the second lady and the second aunt are here." With the maid's announcement, Zhu Yuehua and He Wenzhao had already stepped into the main hall. Old lady Zhu and old lady Zhu sat in the middle of the hall, and when they saw Zhu Yuehua, they both showed a smile on their faces, and said happily, "Yuehua and Wen Zhao have come back so early." ”

He Wenzhao couldn't help but feel embarrassed and restrained towards the old lady Zhu and the old lady who warmly entertained them without knowing it, even if they saw it in the past, they always felt inferior, let alone in such a delicate situation today. Seeing Zhu Yuehua happily calling his grandfather and grandmother, without the slightest embarrassment, reluctance or unnatural appearance, He Wenzhao was stunned, and then followed to call the two elders.

Qiu Ye immediately handed over the birthday gift prepared for the old lady Zhu from the hand of the maid holding the gift who followed Zhu Yuehua and He Wenzhao. "I wish my grandfather a blessed life like the East China Sea and Nanshan, and he will be healthier and healthier year by year, and the days will be smoother and smoother." Zhu Yuehua said auspicious words and gave a birthday gift, and He Wenzhao bowed three times with her.

"My grandfather and grandmother must have seen many more good things than me, and this birthday gift was embroidered by Yuehua herself. Yuehua is clumsy, she can't embroider anything beautiful, and she hopes that her grandfather and grandmother won't dislike it. "I have to say that if the host hadn't always remembered the matter of wishing the old lady a big birthday and had prepared a gift early, she really didn't know what to prepare for her birthday.

Seeing her granddaughter so naughty, I thought she was still the little doll who would surround them and ask for candy, both of them smiled and waved their hands and said something like "It's too late to like it, how can you dislike it". The atmosphere in the hall became more cheerful.

"Yuehua can only see her grandfather and grandmother, and we sisters haven't seen each other for so long, don't you remember me?" The person who spoke was Zhu Yuehua's cousin Zhu Yueying, that is, the eldest granddaughter of the Zhu family, who was twenty-five this year, seven years older than Zhu Yuehua.

"If my cousin had to say that, I'd be upset." Zhu Yuehua snorted, and noticed the two little dolls standing beside Zhu Yueying'an, and when the two little guys saw Zhu Yuehua looking at them, they immediately shouted in a glutinous voice, "Auntie." Then he looked at He Wenzhao and shouted again, "Uncle." ”

"Brother Cheng and Sister Min are so well-behaved and so old, sure enough, the elder sister is well-educated, and the younger sister can admire it tightly." Zhu Yuehua said with a smile, and Qiu Ye, who was not far behind her, immediately handed over the prepared gift. The two little dolls who got the good things naturally thanked them for a while. He Wenzhao was standing beside Zhu Yuehua, but he was only laughing there.

Mrs. Zhu is a considerate and careful person, Zhu Yuehua is so rare to go back to Zhu's mansion, and she can't say how much she wants to say to her mother, so she said to Zhu Yuehua after laughing for a while, "Your mother is busy helping your aunt do things at this time, and you should be able to see it when you go to the Lan Courtyard." Your mother may not have seen you for a long time, so it's better for you to hurry up and meet her, so as not to have to go back and say that we are tyrannizing you and refusing to let go. ”

"Grandmother said that, I can't go if I don't go." Zhu Yuehua stood up with a smile and said to He Wenzhao, who stood up like her, "Xianggong will accompany my grandfather and grandmother here, and I will come back when I go." Where did He Wenzhao want to accompany the old lady and the old lady here to accompany the old lady Zhu, but he had to say yes and said, "I'll send the lady out." "I don't know if I deliberately want to make a loving appearance or what.

"Get out!"

Zhu Yuehua specially returned to the house with spring flakes and autumn leaves, who was originally the maid of Zhufu, and was naturally very familiar with Zhufu.

Coming out of the courtyard of the old lady Zhu, Zhu Yuehua asked Chunxu to find her father and mother, and she could go to the Lan Courtyard to find her later. Chun Xu left gratefully, and Zhu Yuehua only took Autumn Leaves to find the second lady of the Zhu family.

The Lan courtyard is some distance away from the courtyard of the old lady Zhu, and Zhu Yuehua met a lot of busy maids and servants along the way, which shows that there are a lot of guests to be entertained this time. This is not a strange thing, the old lady Zhu used to be a waiter in the Ministry of Rites, and now the host's father, the second master of the Zhu family, is also a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, and there will naturally be no fewer people who come to celebrate his birthday.

When he arrived at the Delan Courtyard, Qiu Ye asked a servant, and he knew that the second lady Zhu was really here, and then asked where it was, and Zhu Yuehua looked for it. said that he was busy, but in fact, he was just directing his subordinates to do things, and he was not really busy, otherwise Mrs. Zhu would not easily say the words of letting Zhu Yuehua come to Mrs. Zhu.

Second Mrs. Zhu didn't notice Zhu Yuehua, Zhu Yuehua walked over lightly, and the other servants didn't break it, and when she walked behind Second Mrs. Zhu and hugged Second Mrs. Zhu and shouted "Mother", many people laughed secretly.

The sudden movements and sounds startled Second Mrs. Zhu, but she immediately turned to look at Zhu Yuehua, who had already let go of her and walked to her side, and scolded with a smile, "You girl has been married for two years, why are you still so naughty, and even teasing your mother." There was a smile on his face and eyes, and there was no reproach at all. Zhu Yuehua smiled and coquettishly, and the second lady Zhu was completely gone.

The eldest lady of the Zhu family over there saw that it seemed that Zhu Yuehua was coming, so she walked over here. Seeing that the person who came was really Zhu Yuehua, he also said with a smile, "Because you will definitely come back, your mother has been looking forward to it for a long time, okay, there is no big matter here, I can handle the rest, you two go play, don't delay me here." ”

The second lady couldn't hear the sister-in-law's kindness, so she naturally smiled and said, "Then it's all over to the sister-in-law." Zhu Yuehua also smiled and said, "Auntie has worked hard." The mother and daughter left the Lan courtyard together.

The two talked and laughed all the way to the courtyard of Second Mrs. Zhu, and asked the maids to guard the door, and Second Mrs. Zhu took Zhu Yuehua into the inner room. The mother and daughter don't have much time to talk about some private conversations, so the second lady has to hurry up, she has a lot of things to say about this daughter.

But to the surprise of Second Mrs. Zhu, before she could speak, Zhu Yuehua no longer had the smile she had before, but she flattened her face, and after shouting at her, she threw herself into her arms and cried...... 'P'*WXC'P'
