Zhou Zhenwei missed his grandmother and hurried to her main room. When I crossed the garden, I saw a girl walking slowly in front, and I saw her holding a tray in her hand, a light eggplant skin purple glaze spoon on it, and a dark dragon pattern bowl of the same color, which contained bird's nest porridge, which was suddenly steaming.

He pondered for a moment, and Fang Ning opened his mouth to ask, "This is for the Ancestor?" ”

Rui Zhu heard the voice, raised his eyes, and saw that it was Zhou Zhenwei. I wondered in my heart, these four masters don't like to take care of people every day, how can they take the initiative to talk to themselves now? couldn't help but feel dizzy, and hurriedly said: "The old lady has been in a bad breath recently, with some coughing and wheezing, and phlegm in her throat from time to time, so the eldest lady ordered to stew this bird's nest to replenish the old lady's body." ”

"You give me this bird's nest porridge. I took it. He said in a deep voice, and he stepped forward to take it and held it in his hand.

"Fourth master, slow down, this is very hot! Let's let Ruizhu come! Ruizhu's voice became more and more sweet, and seeing that the tray was taken away by Zhou Zhenwei, her heart was pounding, and she approached him.

Zhou Zhenwei glanced at her, frowned slightly, and didn't drink, and then walked like a fly, leaving her behind in an instant.

Rui Zhu stopped boringly, stunned to see the mighty and upright figure go away, although the fourth master looked as cold as ice on the surface, but she knew that night, he was also like a raging fire, so hot that he could burn people!

Zhou Zhenwei naturally didn't know Ruizhu's thoughts. After the moon arch, there were three or two girls in front of the corridor talking together, one of them in a yellow shirt and white dress looked at him with sharp eyes, and hurriedly smiled and greeted him while opening the Hunan curtain, and replied to the room: "The fourth master is here!" ”

Zhou Zhenwei walked in and saw his grandmother sitting on the couch, with tea and candy on the table in front of him. Zhulan was waiting for the fan, and the second lady was standing next to the table, leaning over slightly and talking with a smile, when she heard the movement by the door, she looked over one by one, saw the person who came, and said in surprise: "Why did Zhenwei come here today?" ”

"I heard that my grandmother is not well, so I came to greet her!" He replied, looked at the old lady again, his face showed concern, and asked, "Has grandmother seen a doctor these days?" ”

The old lady turned her head away, didn't say a word, didn't look at him, and her face was not pale.

The second lady felt that the atmosphere was stiff, and she was not a troubled person, so she hurriedly found a reason to pull Zhulan out and avoid it.

There were no idle people in the house, so Zhou Zhenwei stepped forward to sit next to the old lady, and the bird's nest porridge on the table was held in one hand and the spoon in the other, and fed her bite by bite.

The old lady ate in his mouth, seeing that although he was clumsy, he was sincere, and sighed, although his demeanor eased down, he said sullenly: "You don't touch the family these days, but there is no less, I listen to two sentences of gossip, listen to three sentences of that, and after a while, this one says that you have taken a fancy to the second girl of Mrs. Chu's family, but it is a person who cannot give birth; After a while, the one who said that the emperor wanted to marry Princess Xinyang to you, but you refused; I just heard that you are investigating the case of Queen Wang, and you can't find out Princess Shang! Pity my old bones, this heart is up and down, day and night for you to be frightened, afraid" said and thought of his son and daughter-in-law who died early, a burst of discouragement, and picked up a silk handkerchief to wipe away tears.

Zhou Zhenwei felt guilty, put down the porcelain bowl in his hand, got up and knelt in front of the old lady's bed, and explained the ins and outs of the matter clearly.

After being silent for a long time, the old lady said: "Princess Shang said that you don't want to, and I don't want to." I only heard that Mrs. Chu was arrogant and arrogant, and she had never looked down on anyone, and no one in the capital knew about the two girls, and no one knew about it! My wife, who stays at home all day, knows that she is a girl with first-class talent and good looks, and she must be a very high-spirited girl. Don't say that she can't climb high, can she look down on you and people like us? ”

Zhou Zhenwei replied loudly: "Grandmother should believe that her grandson's vision is, in addition to what her grandmother just said, Miss Yuqiao is the most soft-hearted, the most gentle, and the most warm-hearted." She is also not very noble and low-prejudiced, and she is very good to her grandchildren. Grandmother has never seen her, but she will love it when she sees her! ”

He thought about it and lifted the jade pendant on the leather belt again, and said: "This jade pendant is a gift from Yuqiao, and everyone praises it exquisitely!" The Yuqian corn cake I brought back a few days ago, didn't my grandmother like to eat two pieces in a row? That's Yuqiao's own hand! And also! ”

How has the old lady ever seen her grandson praise a girl like this! Look at this wild horse who was still cold and hard when he came, unruly and unruly, like a wild horse who couldn't hold the reins, but now he smiled gently, his eyes were soft, he was afraid that he didn't like the young lady of the Chu family, so he was anxious and sweaty, and kept chattering about the girl's hundred good, and the words were full of affection and kindness!

Zhou Zhenwei said and spoke, seeing that the old lady's expression seemed to be happy rather than happy, as if he was sad rather than sad, he stopped talking, twisted his eyebrows and asked, "Grandmother still doesn't like Yuqiao?" ”

"How don't you like it! My grandson likes me, and so do I! The old lady looked sorry: "But she can't give birth, and you have no heir." Even if this is good to the sky, it will be great without a queen, and it will poke the backbone of others behind its back! ”

Zhou Zhenwei heard this, shook his head and said: "My grandson loves Miss Yuqiao, and I don't care about anything else!" However, she is indeed a capable person, just because she was favored by the prince to be accepted as a concubine, she refused, and would rather ruin her reputation! ”

The old lady was stunned and quite moved: "This is a girl who is not greedy for fame and fortune, I admire it when I hear it!" ”

Zhou Zhenwei breathed a sigh of relief and whispered: "Grandmother can't tell the second person about this matter anymore, if it spreads, it will cause a big disaster." ”

The old lady shook her head and pouted: "You can't be fooled when I am old!" It's going to rot in your heart! ”

The two of them talked for a while, and Zhou Zhenwei left without mentioning it

Yuqiao listened to Zhou Zhenwei's words and stayed at home all day. The weather was getting hotter, the garden was full of green trees, and the red flowers were thick, and she found a lot of fun, and the life was very pleasant.

The only thing that bothered her was that the princess sent someone to urge her to enter the palace every once in a while to accompany her, although she prevaricated with her body, but she knew that according to the princess's temper, she would not stop there.

On this day, Yuqiao was taking Bixiu and a few people to wander in the garden, but saw the pheasants brought back from Zaoqi Lake, holding their heads high, walking past them, and then the purple water pheasants followed dejectedly, and then, five or six chicks, pink balls, chirped and followed.

Everyone was dumbfounded, and Caifu stepped forward to catch a chick to play, but the pheasant was ruthless and ran away with her!

When Yuqiao was giggling and laughing, Lu'er came, and Aunt Zhilan, who was waiting for Princess Xinyang in the palace, brought a soft sedan chair outside the second gate of the mansion to take her into the palace. (To be continued.) )
