Chapter 125: The Zhou Family's Wife (2)
Zhou Zhenwei's tiger eyes darkened, and he twisted his eyebrows coldly: "The eldest aunt said that the rumors in the market are not credible, how can you believe this kind of ruining reputation?" ”
The eldest lady blushed and wanted to argue, but he ignored it anymore, looked at the old lady directly, and said in a warm voice: "On time before the dawn, the palace deacon and eunuch Li Gonggong came to give an edict, and I have made an appointment with the hijab matchmaker Feng Poshen to go to Mrs. Chu's house at two o'clock to propose marriage, and by the way, I gave the grass, the fine post and the burden red together, can grandmother go to see the granddaughter-in-law?" ”
The old lady looked at him and chuckled: "When the front foot of the Ming Holy Decree arrives, you will come to the door with a roar on the back foot to propose marriage, then Mrs. Chu is willing to give you this thin noodles?" ”
Zhou Zhenwei rarely showed embarrassment: "I met Lord Chu in the palace during the day, and I asked him about it, but he did not agree or object. The grandson took his acquiescence. ”
"You're in a hurry!" The old lady shook her head, thought for a while, and said: "I heard that Mrs. Chu has always been arrogant, and she loves this second girl the most in the family, but I am afraid that you will always show your face, and I will go with you!" He doesn't look at the monk's face, but the Buddha's face always has to look at something. ”
She swept the daughter-in-law who was listening to the clouds again, looked at him again and said, "It's getting late, you go back and rest first, I have something to say to your aunt." ”
Zhou Zhenwei understood, and immediately got up to say goodbye, Zhulan was busy waiting for the curtain to be opened, and sent out without mentioning it.
The old lady dismissed the maid, and the two daughters-in-law did not have a word, and the second lady knew the landscape, and hurriedly pointed to the retreat.
Seeing that there was no one around, the eldest lady had red eyes, couldn't stop crying, and said angrily: "The ancestor also saw me today, Zhenwei is now not a nose or an eye to me, when the uncle and sister left early, I swore that I would treat Zhenwei as my own child, to say a word in my heart, it hurts more than my own child, now he is older, he has an idea, because of the previous mistake, he hates my tight, the ancestor commented, even if I have no credit over the years, there is always some hard work is not, it is worth him to hate me so much? ”
The old lady was silent for a moment, and Fang said: "I know that you are a capable and virtuous person, you have been in charge of things in the house for many years, and you need to bow down to every detail, and other daughters-in-law and juniors can't intervene." But it's all good, it's not worth a big mistake, don't blame your grandson for complaining about you, fortunately, he went to ask the emperor and returned the family matter, otherwise, how will you let him live in the future! ”
The eldest lady choked and said unwillingly: "The ancestors are very partial, which of the younger generations in this house was in love before they got married, and they finally became husband and wife. Miss Fang is beautiful, knowledgeable, smart, and knows the roots, where is she not worthy of Zhenwei? ”
The old lady looked at her, sighed and said, "You are also a pickled radish who has eaten too much, so worry about it!" She's just a fairy-like character, and her grandson doesn't like it, so it's useless, isn't she? ”
Hearing this, the eldest lady wiped her tears with a handkerchief, and said disheartenedly: "The ancestor doesn't have to hide it from me, what you and Zhenwei said just now, what kind of decree will be issued tomorrow, and you want to go to Chu Mansion to propose marriage, I also understand more or less!" You are all hiding from me, and you must have thought I was clumsy, and it didn't work, but I ended up clean! ”
The old lady heard the words and comforted her: "This is a marriage given by the emperor, it is not as good as ordinary people marrying, I always have to do it myself." ”
The eldest lady sneered: "I have heard of the Miss Chu family, the noble mansion of the high gate is pampered, but I am afraid that when the time comes, we must be careful not to say anything, and what is even more breathless is that the ancestor does not ask me where I heard it, it is really a person who cannot be born and raised." ”
"If you can't give birth, you can't have children!" The old lady said vaguely: "Zhenwei has put a lot of thought into that girl, and if he likes it, he will follow him!" ”
The eldest lady was stunned, but she never thought about when the ancestor thought so clearly! I was very surprised, and I didn't know what to say for a while.
Coincidentally, Zhulan came in with a few little girls with hot water, a face towel and soap, the old lady's face was tired, and she wanted to rush people, and said impatiently: "The holy decree has been issued, the girl of the Chu family must be going to enter our Zhou family, you don't have to complain more, hurry up and rest!" ”
The eldest lady was only blessed, lifted the curtain and went out, and stood sullenly in front of the porch for a while, before leaving happily
Yuqiao's eyes were blazing all night, she couldn't fall asleep over and over, and she fell into a white halo outside the window, she was dozing for a while, and she heard some birds, crisp and crisp in the trees, chirping in a long tone, so she couldn't close her eyes anymore, so she simply opened the goose yellow veil and sat in front of the dresser, in a trance, and she didn't have a haircut like a waterfall.
She suddenly opened the side drawer, took out a makeup box from the deepest part, opened it, and untied the Jinpa, the golden phoenix hairpin given by Zhou Zhenwei is still full of new brilliance! She put it in her hand and looked at it over and over again, the past was like yesterday, and some pain, now that she thought of it, it seemed to have faded away.
The curtain was lifted, but it was Yu Fu who poked her head in to look, and saw that Yuqiao had gotten up, and hurriedly called Bixiu to come in and wait for freshening. Yuqiao asked, "Did you hear the birds chirping in the morning?" It's not like a oriole thrush, and it's not like a chickadee! ”
Bixiu pursed her lips and smiled: "Yes, I was under the porch before, and I saw that the bird was clearly distinguished, it was a mountain magpie." Mrs. Ding was afraid that it would make Sister Qiao sleepy, so she had to beat her with a bamboo pole. So I stopped her, for this bird is a messenger of good tidings, and wherever it goes, good things will come out. I can't even invite you if you want to! ”
Yuqiao's heart moved, Cai Fu first covered her mouth and smiled, and said: "Listen to the embroidery painting, the lord is in the house all day today, and the incense case has been placed at the middle gate, and the holy decree of the young lady's marriage will come soon!" That week, the adults will also come to propose! ”
Yuqiao was stunned when she heard this, and asked, "He came to propose marriage when he applied for it, can this be taken seriously?" ”
Bixiu nodded and said: "The embroidery is calm, and the words are honest, and there will be no mistakes." I heard that the old man was so angry that he threw his fan, saying that Lord Zhou was a ghost, and if he came, he would be kicked out! ”
"He's in a hurry, too!" Yu Qiao said a word, remembered something, blushed, and swallowed the next sentence!
Cai Fu hurriedly said again: "Miss must not know, last night, the master also ordered Chu Yun to close the door and let the dog go!" ”
"Why is that?" Yuqiao looked at her suspiciously, and asked puzzledly: "Is there a thief in the house?" ”
Cai Fu was so happy that she couldn't speak, Bixiu couldn't help laughing, and said reluctantly: "If the master says it's a thief, it's a thief, whether he is a young Yin of Yanjing Mansion or not, don't worry about Sister Qiao, Lord Zhou can endure it!" Jump on the wall! After the old man knew, he said that he would build the wall half a foot higher to see if he dared to come! ”
Yuqiao was suddenly a little messy, if she remembered correctly, a while ago, her father also complained about Zhou Zhenwei, but he only knew that he would go to Chu Mansion to wander around, and he didn't send a red media to propose marriage!
