Chapter 234: The Infatuated Aunt Cui

Although I really wanted to see Zhang Wan'er's expression at the moment, as expected, Zhang Wan'er did not appear, and Mrs. Lin just vaguely said that she was sick. Everyone is not suspicious, it is too normal for a woman who drove away the original main room before entering the door, plus the concubines, did not show up at the baptism ceremony of the eldest son of her husband.

Although Mrs. Lin has not been in charge of power for a while, her control over the Hou Mansion after returning to the town is still very good, and there is no deliberate publicity on Lin Yu's side, and no one in the outside world knows about such a thing as the addition of the eldest son to the Hou Mansion in Zhenyuan. Of course, the third prince who has just arrived will definitely not publicize his cousin's family disputes.

But what about the Zhang family? Lin Yu was suspicious in her heart, when she came over that day, there were a lot of people in the Hou Mansion of the Zhang family, and even Zhang Wan'er was the one who reported the news, and the Zhang family must have known about Cuiru's child at this time. Today, it's not just Lu Ping's eldest son, but even Zhang Wan'er herself is really sick and sick, not angry and pretending to be sick as everyone guesses, Zhang Wan'er is very favored in the Zhang family, it's impossible for the Zhang family not to come, right?

Lin Yu thought about it in his heart, but he had never seen anyone from the Zhang family, but he was attracted by the baptismal ceremony. The antique and original baptism ceremony is still very interesting for her, watching the actions and auspicious words of the grandmother, and then according to the order of the elder and youngest, add water and gold and silver coins and fruits to the basin, and say auspicious words. Naturally, the first was the third prince, and then a few elders, Lin Yu was at the back of the comparison, and Qingqing also followed behind her to add a basin.

After everyone finished adding pots, the midwife grandmother began to wash the child. Especially the words of the grandmother, it sounds so interesting, what to wash your hair first. As a prince, he speaks as if he were singing. The child was also really cute, although it was only three days, he had already opened his eyes, and his skin was not wrinkled, and he was snow-white, except for crying twice when he rang the basin. They all look at people with a pair of black grape-like eyes.

For a while, the etiquette was exhausted, and the child was too young to stand the wind. was already carried in by the nurse, and the midwife's grandmother took the property of the pot, thanked the main family, and Mrs. Lin asked someone to lead her to another place to drink tea and rest.

The rest of the people took out their gifts for the newborns. The three princes sent the most abundant nature. A child's toy bow, sword, and gun. They are all made in the palace, very exquisite, the two new books are four books and five classics, pen, ink, paper and inkstone, take the meaning of both civil and military, and it is indeed very thoughtful. In addition, there are also gold locks and jade locks brought by newborns, as well as silk cloth medicines and other items sent to the mother's mansion.

Others are not as rich as those given by the three princes. According to their respective statuses, their families are thick and thin, and the gifts they give are different. It's not very valuable. Even the three princes gave it is not very valuable, but it has a good meaning. Because according to convention, the full moon ceremony is the most valuable, and the baptism ceremony is common.

The gifts given by Lin Yu and Qingqing are sandwiched among everyone, and they are not thin, nor are they too outstanding, this is the effect that Lin Yu wants, it is just right if it is not thick or thin.

At this time, after the three baptisms, there is still a while to eat, such a happy event, since they have already arrived, it is not bad for a meal. Therefore, relatives, friends and guests chatted with each other, and Lin Yu took this opportunity to quietly tell Mrs. Lin that he wanted to go to see Cuiru and Zhang Wan'er.

Old Madam Lin was entertaining the third prince and the two side concubines who came with her, and she didn't think much about it. Because Lin Yu helped her deal with it very properly last time, she even took care of Zhang Wan'er very well, she didn't have any bad intentions, and she didn't spread it afterwards, and she was both grateful and trusting to Lin Yu in her heart. In fact, she even told Lin Yu not to rush over and take care of the two of them.

Lin Yu nodded in response, not to mention Cuiru, who has no grudges with her, is Zhang Wan'er, and her feelings for her are also very complicated, and her simple disgust is mixed with sympathy and a certain feeling of anger among fellow villagers. The main thing is that seeing Zhang Wan'er is miserable enough now, she is not very willing to do it herself, just look at the excitement.

She, under normal circumstances, probably still cherishes feathers, and has a gentle temperament, but she is by no means obedient. Things like intrigue and intrigue won't be, but unless there are special circumstances, they don't do it, but if they are really forced to do it, they can't care so much.

After informing Mrs. Lin, Lin Yu and Qingqing walked back side by side, originally wanted to tell Xiaobai a few words, but saw Xiaobai chatting with a guard who came with the third prince, and it seemed that the conversation was still very hot, so he asked someone to wait for Xiaobai to ask, just say where he was.

Zhang Wan'er once successfully forced her mother-in-law to live in another courtyard for a period of time, and lived in the main courtyard by herself. But unfortunately, she failed to keep the fruits of victory, and now Mrs. Lin has reoccupied the position of the main courtyard, and Zhang Wan'er has to live in the east courtyard.

It stands to reason that the West Courtyard is where she lives now, but the West Courtyard now lives in Lu Pingzhi, and she and Lu Pingzhi had such a fight, but now she is angry when she looks at Lu Pingzhi, but her current physical condition is pure and quiet, and if she can't be angry, she naturally doesn't live in the West Courtyard. It's Cuiru, who barely lives within the scope of the West Courtyard, but Lu Pingzhi doesn't have her in his heart, and it is said that he has never visited her in the past few days.

Lin Yu went all the way, it was more convenient to visit Cuiru first, and then Zhang Wan'er. Cuiru lives in the West Courtyard, but in fact, it is far away from the main courtyard of the West Courtyard, and within the range closer to the main house, after watching her go to see Zhang Wan'er, there is not much detour.

Although it was said to be a small courtyard, Mrs. Lin felt that she was really wronged Cuiru, and she really didn't want to go, and the small courtyard arranged was bright and wide. The courtyard is also planted with verdant bamboo and several kinds of flower trees, and there is a small grape trellis pergola with a stone table and four small stone piers underneath.

When Lin Yu walked in, there was a woman dressed as a girl under the grape trellis who was napping with her cheeks, and when she heard someone walk in, she looked up hurriedly and saw that it was Lin Yu, her face showed a sense of disappointment, she stood up and saluted, and said.

"Miss Cousin has come to see our aunt?"

This girl ring is Cuiru's personal girl ring little apricot, Lin Yu recognized it, nodded when she heard the words, half joking and half asking, "Why don't you take care of your aunt and grandmother in the house, and hide outside." ”

"Miss Cousin, you don't know what to do." Xiao Xing walked up to Lin Yu and complained quietly, "Our aunt and grandmother almost lost her life for the sake of Hou Ye, and she gave birth to a little Hou Ye desperately. ”

Lin Yu thought to himself, this Lu Pingzhi is indeed the first seed of affection, but if Sister Su Su didn't lie to herself, the child born by Cuiru was not Lu Pingzhi's child, half to half. But is it necessary for Yin Susu to lie to himself about this kind of thing? Not at all.

Qingqing didn't think much about it, just smiled, "That being said, what does this have to do with you not serving in the house and hiding in the yard?" Reasoning, your aunt needs to be taken care of the most. ”

"But our aunt and grandmother are still thinking about Hou Ye in their hearts, and they will never forget it, although it is said that it is not good to cry in the confinement and will break their eyes in the future, but they still have to cry a few times a day, and they talk about Hou Ye why he doesn't come to see her. No, you kicked me out, let me stand guard at the door, and watched the Hou Ye come, so I called her loudly and let her know earlier. Xiao Xing said helplessly.

"Miss Biao and Sister Qingqing, what can be done?! I wanted to ask Hou Ye to ask him to come and see my aunt and grandmother, but I couldn't see Hou Ye either! ”

A few people were talking, and Cuiru in the room heard the movement, as if someone was talking, and immediately said in surprise, "Did the Hou Ye come to see me?" Help me up, I'm going to comb my hair and get my grooming done. ”

Xing'er sighed, made a helpless expression, and said, "Grandma, it's Miss Cousin and Miss Qingqing who have come to see you." ”

Lin Yu lifted the curtain and went in, and looked around first, the furnishings in the living room were quite gorgeous, and there were also a few antique calligraphy and paintings hanging there to fill the scene. From the right side of the living room, there are two rooms on each side, the largest of which is Cuiru's bedroom.

Cuiru was asking someone to freshen herself up, and when she saw Lin Yu coming in, she couldn't hide her disappointment on her face, but she still had a smile on her face.

"Let Miss Biao smile, I remember Master Hou in my heart, but it's been almost a year, and I always haven't seen him once. Even if he gave birth to a child, it was useless, Hou Ye's heart was still on the Zhang family, and he never came to see me once-"

The laughter of the beating gradually subsided, and before he finished speaking, he burst into tears again. She was already a delicate beauty, at this time she was wearing long hair like a cloud, she was not powdered, her face was pale, and crystal tears rolled down from her eyes, which was really distressing to look at.

"My cousin just can't think about it for a while, and there will always be a time to figure it out in the future. Besides, you have a child, and you are still worried that your cousin really ignores you at all?

Seeing her like this, Lin Yu and Qingqing hurriedly comforted her, and said that when they washed three times before, the three princes gave many gifts, how good the meaning was, Cuiru gradually stopped her tears. Lin Yu asked someone to show her the gift he brought, and Cuiru became happy.

Lin Yu and Qingqing took the opportunity to say goodbye, and the two came out, followed by their respective personal maids, and there was no one from the Hou Mansion. Qingqing looked around at no one, and because she remembered the scene just now, she whispered vaguely to Lin Yu.

"Looking at Cuiru like this, it seems that she has a deep affection for Lu Pingzhi, but Sister Susu doesn't need to lie to us, how can it be?"

Although she said vaguely, Lin Yu knew what she meant, and shook her head and said, "I don't understand either, looking at this situation, I'm afraid she doesn't know Lu Dao herself?" Forget it, it's not a good thing in the end, it's better to mention it less. ”

Qingqing also laughed, her eyes crooked like the moon, "This is also true, speaking of which, what does this matter have to do with us?" ”

Although the two had a profound exchange of opinions, the maids were confused, but they still had the basic qualities, and they didn't dare to investigate. On the other hand, Lin Yu and Qingqing changed the topic, talking all the way, and it didn't take long to arrive at the main house in the West Courtyard, which is where Zhang Wan'er lives now. (To be continued.) )
