Chapter 402: Four Daughters-in-law
The four daughters-in-law were busy all morning, cleaning the Changning Palace, which was originally clean and full of flowers. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
At noon, Zhou Guifei took her four daughters-in-law, waiting for the emperor, the eldest prince, and the fourth prince to come to eat the first reunion and celebration dinner in Layue, the emperor came, and he came every day. But the eldest prince and the fourth prince seemed to have discussed, and they all went back to the yamen to get busy, and they didn't go into the palace to eat at noon.
Zhou Guifei was very disappointed, and after lunch, she was crooked on the kang, and she didn't like it anywhere, "Who watched those vases of flowers?" Zhou Guifei pointed to a few bottles of flowers in the corner of the hall and asked, and the eldest princess Huo replied with a smile: "Those vases of flowers were just brought in yesterday afternoon, and they were opened overnight, and today is the best time, the daughter-in-law thought ......"
"Didn't I tell you, from today onwards, it's the New Year, these flowers and grasses have to be replaced with new ones, this is not only good-looking, but also auspicious and unlucky!" Zhou Guifei was angry, no wonder she felt unhappy on the first day of the Spring Festival, "Hurry up and change!" If you are so industrious, you dare to be lazy like this in my place, so what about you in the house? Are you so unsatisfied with your eldest brother? ”
The eldest princess Huo's face turned white, "It's the daughter-in-law who was negligent, and the daughter-in-law will go and change it." ”
"You go and fold it yourself, take a few more steps, pick the best, Zhao, you go too, help her watch it, it's really!" Zhou Guifei leaned at Huo's with disgust, and Zhao hurriedly bent his knees and agreed, gloating at Huo's oblique.
The fourth princess Zheng, who was standing on the other side, glanced at the outer hall that she couldn't see at all from time to time, and the outer hall was cleaned by her, and the flower arrangements were not changed......
Zheng was thinking about how to speak, not only not to let Zhou Guifei notice her negligence, but also to find an excuse to go out and change the flowers, because she was pregnant, the fourth prince and concubine Sun, who was not sent by Zhou Guifei today, spoke in front of her, "Niangniang, I don't know if the flowers in the outer hall have been changed, daughter-in-law will go and take a look." ”
"You are pregnant, rest, and the flowers in the outer hall have not been changed?" Zhou Guifei glared angrily at the fourth princess Zheng, Zheng's body was short, and hurriedly shirked and said: "If you change it, I'm afraid that it won't be changed, and my daughter-in-law will go and see it again." ”
Zhou Guifei said 'um', it was a response, Zheng hurriedly lowered his hand and retreated to the outer hall, and there was no need for Zhou Guifei to order if there was no change, let people follow with a vase, and hurriedly went to the back garden to fold flowers and arrange flowers in person.
As soon as Zheng left, Zhou Guifei was only three or four months pregnant in front of her, but she desperately wanted to push her belly out of the old high, and Sun began to beat the drum in her heart and chat with Zhou Guifei...... I've never seen anyone talk to anyone who has a good time! She had to find an excuse to get out.
"Niangniang, I don't know if the potted flowers outside have all been replaced, or else, the daughter-in-law will go out and look at them one by one? Say goodbye to the old and welcome the new, flowers, grass, these, must be new. Zheng finally came up with an excuse.
Zhou Guifei looked at her belly, and Zheng hurriedly said, "It's okay, it's almost four months, and the fetus has been firmly seated, and the doctor said that you should move around more every day, which is good for the child, and the birth is also smooth." ”
"Well, go ahead, watch carefully. It's cold today, don't go to the yard, just under the porch, let them show you the flowers in the yard. "Zhou Guifei is still very concerned about the pregnant Zheng family, to be exact, the child in Zheng's womb.
The flowers and plants outside the hall of Zhou Guifei were all just replaced yesterday, since the four princes and concubines Zheng went out to see, they naturally had to see it, a pot of pots came out and ordered to move out for a new one, the flower arrangement in the hall was the eldest princess and the four princesses personally picked up and folded, the potted flowers outside the palace, Zheng did not dare to hesitate, took the girl, out of Changning Palace, and personally went to the flower room to pick potted flowers.
The eldest princess Huo is not a local, among the four daughters-in-law, except for the four princes and concubines Sun, the other three are not locals, when choosing a daughter-in-law, Zhou Guifei and her mother Mrs. Zhao have the same opinion, do not want the daughter-in-law of the Gaomen family, save the future relatives to mess up the government, add chaos to the son, Sui Guogong and Zhou Deputy Privy Extremely agreed, the family is noble, high-ranking relatives, it is enough to have their Zhou family.
Huo's was born in Hebei, grew up in Hebei, a mouthful of Hebei official dialect, was ridiculed by the eldest prince on the first day, the side concubine Zhao is from Suzhou, the eldest prince loves to listen to her soft official language, plus Zhao's face is very smeared, the eldest prince fell in love with her girl Shui, she sent Shui to the eldest prince's bed, and then often called Shui over, and the two of them waited for the eldest prince together, because she was informed and interesting, and was very favored by the eldest prince, in the eldest prince's mansion, she could overpower Huo's head in everything.
At this time, the Huo family was first picked by Zhou Guifei, and the Zhao family followed behind the Huo family, thinking about how to tell the eldest prince about it when he went back.
After entering Merlin, the Huo family took a fancy to a branch, and did not dare to let the chamberlain fold it down, looking at the Zhao family and smiling: "Sister looks good at this branch?" ”
"Niangniang said, you come to pick, I'll just help you take a look, if I say it's good-looking or not-looking, wouldn't I have to make decisions for my sister? That would be against the will of the mother. Zhao couldn't wait to see Huo Shi touch a few more moldy heads, saying that he was helping, but in fact, he was not willing to help at all, and it was best to push a few more behind his back.
Huo Shi turned his head, the tears turned in his eyes a few times, but he didn't dare to flow out, tilted his head, and ordered the waiter to break the plum branch, and wiped away the tears that were full of eyes by being fascinated.
folded the plum branches, went to the conservatory to pick out some flowers and put them in a vase, and the maid held the vase of flowers, followed behind the Huo family and the Zhao family, and went back to Changning Palace.
Not far from Changning Palace, the eldest princess Huo slowed down, lowered her head and approached the side concubine Zhao, looked left and right, and said in a low voice: "Sister, Niangniang has praised several times, saying that you have a good eye, do you look at these vases of flowers." ”
Zhao leaned at Huo's and snorted coldly, "Sister, don't lift me up, you are a concubine, a sister, no matter how good my vision is, I can't be as good as you, I don't dare to say this." ”
"Sister, let's go out of the house, people look at us, they all come out of the same house, they are all the uncle's family, this flower is good, the mother is happy, the uncle has face, our house has face, if it is not good, the mother is not happy, the uncle is definitely not happy, it is our house is not ......"
"Yo!" Before Huo Shi finished speaking, he was slapped by Zhao Shi and interrupted with a sneer, "What do you mean by this, sister?" Is this a threat to me? I don't have such a big face, I can take a sentence in our house, I can be embarrassed for my uncle, sister, don't bother me! ”
