Chapter 54 Request
Du Yunluo felt Du Gongfu's temperament very clearly.
Zhen's maiden home is in Tongcheng, which also belongs to Gyeonggi Province, and it is not far from the capital, so he went by carriage, which is five or six days.
But even if it is not far away, Zhen has not returned to his parents' house for three or five years, after all, she is a married daughter, and she is not in the same capital.
This year happens to be the fiftieth birthday of Zhen's mother, Mrs. Hou, and the meaning of doing the whole birthday is different, and Zhen really wants to go back.
Not only can he pay his mother's birthday greetings, but he can also go to Lishan Academy to have a look, Zhen was moved, and said: "That's okay, then I'll mention it to the old lady tomorrow." ”
The next day, in the Lotus Blessing Garden, Mrs. Xia sat on the Luohan bed, and Lanzhi gently beat her feet with a beauty.
Miao asked for important matters in the house, listened to a few words from Mrs. Xia, and withdrew.
As soon as Miao's front foot left, Liao's back foot came in: "Old lady, I met the goat's milk custard in the small kitchen halfway, so I didn't ask them to go, I brought it to you." ”
Mrs. Xia raised her eyes to look at Liao, and saw that Liao put the food box on the table, took out the goat milk custard and brought it over, Mrs. Xia responded with her head and took a sip.
The smell of goat's milk rushed up, and Mrs. Xia frowned, covered her head and drank it in one gulp.
After rinsing her mouth, Mrs. Xia smiled bitterly and said, "I've been drinking this thing for seven or eight years, and I still can't get used to it." If it weren't for my body, I wouldn't want to drink it. ”
Goat's milk is sweet and warm, replenishes essence and qi, and nourishes the heart and lungs.
"Old lady, the medicine is bitter, you should take the medicine," Liao Shi finished speaking, and shook his head with a smile, "It's not right, it's three parts poison, but this goat's milk is non-toxic, and eating it is only beneficial." ”
"Seriously, this thing is really good, I've been drinking it for a few years, and my body is much more comfortable, you guys, don't take it seriously when you're young, you should also nourish and nourish."
"Oh, old lady, my daughter-in-law doesn't have this blessing, so I don't dare to drink it."
Liao's frightened look amused Mrs. Xia, she laughed for a while, turned her head and said to Zhen: "Drinking goat's milk was mentioned to me by my own mother, and I want to thank her for this." In the past two years, is the mother-in-law still happy? ”
Speaking of the old things, Zhen is quite nostalgic.
Mrs. Xia had a serious illness eight years ago, which was extremely dangerous at that time, and she finally survived, but her foundation was empty, and for most of the next half a year, she suffered from minor illnesses and pains.
The mother-in-law was sick, and the daughter-in-law worked harder, Zhen mentioned it to Mrs. Hou in the letter, and Mrs. Hou built a sheep milk soup for Mrs. Xia, and sent some recipes to replenish the body.
When the goat milk custard was served for the first time, Mrs. Xia couldn't bear it at all.
But when I remembered that when I saw Mrs. Hou before, the other party's energetic appearance, my heart was a little loose, and then I was tortured by illness, Mrs. Xia had the idea of being a dead horse as a live horse doctor, and began to use it.
Gradually, the body became comfortable, Mrs. Xia was pleasantly surprised, and listened to the doctor talk about the benefits of goat milk, so that people set aside two sheep in the back garden to use fresh ones every day.
Zhen was thinking about how to bring up the matter of returning to her parents' house, Mrs. Xia threw her words over, she was happy in her heart, and said: "Old lady, I received a letter from Tongcheng a while ago, saying that my mother is in good health. It's just that, as you know, these family letters have always been good news and not bad news, and I haven't seen my mother for a few years, so I'm a little worried. ”
"I know." Mrs. Xia nodded slowly, just like the family wrote a letter to Du Huairang, who was far away in Lingdong, and they only reported good news and not bad news.
"Therefore, the daughter-in-law has a matter that she wants to discuss with the old lady." Zhen tentatively spoke.
Old Mrs. Xia raised her eyebrows and said, "You say." ”
"September is my mother's birthday, and it happens to be my fiftieth birthday, and my daughter-in-law wants to go back and kowtow."
"That's as it should be." Mrs. Xia immediately said, "It's not just you, I'll ask Huaili later if he can draw it, and ask him to accompany you." ”
When Zhen heard this, he was overjoyed and responded.
Du Yunluo was also very happy in her heart, Mrs. Xia agreed so happily, the words of persuasion she prepared were useless.
Liao sat down on the chair, bent his lips and said, "The third sister-in-law is a filial person." ”
Liao's skin didn't smile, and the words he said sounded ordinary, but they had a sour taste.
Zhen also ignored her, thinking about it step by step, Mrs. Xia had already promised her to go back to Tongcheng, and she would mention the matter of going to the academy after she left, so that it would not seem that she was deliberate.
Liao Shi was secretly unhappy, and felt bored, so he got up and withdrew, thinking as he walked, why was Mrs. Xia so good at talking today, and Zhen responded as soon as she said it.
Mrs. Xia was full of interest, took Du Yunluo's hand, and said, "Yunluo, what kind of congratulatory gifts do you say I will add to your grandmother?" How about that jade ruyi? ”
Du Yunluo smiled, thought for a while, and said, "Grandmother, when I last saw my grandmother, I was only ** years old, and I even had a vague appearance of my grandmother, where can I guess what she likes." This time, I also went with my mother to celebrate my grandmother's birthday. ”
Mrs. Xia was stunned for a moment, and just wanted to dismiss it, but when she met Du Yunluo's bright eyes, she still didn't hit her.
Promised Zhen, Mrs. Xia is heart-to-heart, if she is doing a whole birthday by herself, it is clear that there is no separation of thousands of mountains and rivers, just five or six days away, and her in-laws still do not allow her daughter to come back to celebrate her birthday, she will be angry to death.
And letting Du Huaili go back together is the respect that the Du family gives to the Zhen family, and they don't want to gossip, after all, the Zhen family has not returned to Tongcheng for many years, if it is a person who goes back this time, it will be a joke.
Kedu Yunluo......
In September, Du Yunru had already left the cabinet, Du Yundi wanted to study, and if Zhen wanted to take a child, there was only Du Yunluo.
It's just that Du Yunluo is married after all, and after half a month, Mrs. Xia is a little hesitant.
"Grandmother?" Du Yunluo didn't wait for a reply, then called again.
Mrs. Xia woke up and thought that Du Yunluo said that "even the appearance of her grandmother is blurred", she couldn't bear it, and said: "Let you go, let you go, but you have to remember that you are obedient these days." ”
Du Yunluo smiled happily and said, "Grandmother, when have I ever been disobedient?" ”
"Yo! It's really true to say that you are thick-skinned! Mrs. Xia took a sip with a smile and patted the back of Du Yunluo's hand, "There are many times when you are disobedient." ”
Mrs. Xia was happy, and the maid on the side was busy making fun, and when she was happy, she settled everything.
Zhen took the reassuring pill, and after serving Mrs. Xia for lunch, he took Du Yunluo back to Qinghui Garden.
In the blink of an eye, it is Zhongyuan.
Zhongyuan sacrifice, Miao has been in charge of the feed for many years, although it is busy, but it is also in order.
In front of the ancestral hall, Du Gongfu read the sacrificial text and kowtowed to incense.
On this day, it is all fasting and pastries to fill the stomach.
Du Yunnuo ate mung bean cake and asked Du Yunluo in a low voice: "Put the river lantern at night, do you want to go to the fifth sister?" ”
On this day of the Middle Yuan Dynasty, the people will put lanterns on the river outside the city, and even the city gate will be closed later than usual from the westward end of the sun to the second watch.
Du Yunluo wanted to go, but she promised Mrs. Xia to be obedient, and it was only two or three days later, and she couldn't regret it, so she could only shake her head: "I'm not going." ”
