On the second day of Fang Fei's departure, Lu Shangshu came to Zhao's house with his young daughter Lu Siqi to pay homage to the late Mrs. Zhao, and expressed deep regret for not being able to come to the door to pay tribute before the funeral.

After the worship, the father and daughter went to Yining Hall to visit the ancestor who had been ill for a long time, and after saying a few polite words, they withdrew.

The eldest lord led Lu Shangshu to the front yard, accompanied by the male in the family, and even the second master, who had been calling himself sick for a while, rushed over from the county office, which can be said to be exhaustive, so that people can't find fault with it. Lu Siqi was entertained by Grandma Song.

When Lu Siqi followed his father to the door, he recognized Grandma Song who was waiting for the guests to come to the door at a glance, and when she ran over with joy, she stepped forward and shouted obediently: "Aunt Zhao is well." ”

This girl has a pleasing melon seed face, under the straight bridge of her nose, with a small cherry lips, her voice is sweet and greasy, as if she has smeared honey on her mouth, her skin is white and beautiful, she understands etiquette, and knows how to advance and retreat, Grandma Song is very happy.

After coming out of Yining Hall, Grandma Song brought Lu Siqi to Tonghua Courtyard to entertain, and asked the second girl and the third girl to come over to accompany her.

The second girl is still an indifferent character, and she has a lukewarm attitude when she sees anyone, and only when she talks about poetry with others, can she see her enthusiastic side.

The third girl is about to get married, and she is busy packing up her things these days, and her husband's family has given her enough face, she is also happy, and she is sinking in the joy of being a woman who is about to marry.

At noon, the father and daughter were left for lunch, and Lu Shangshu was accompanied by the eldest and second masters in the front yard. Lu Siqi was entertained by Grandma Song.

Zhao Rongzhao was called to his mother's yard, and as soon as he entered the yard, he saw Lu Siqi, who was wearing a goose yellow gauze skirt, talking happily with the two sisters at home.

Hurriedly glanced at each other in the morning, he stood in the crowd with his father, not very conspicuous, but Lu Siqi recognized him at a glance. I saw him come in. The anti-guest said: "Brother Zhao, what are you doing standing at the door stupidly?" Come in and sit! ”

When the second girl and the third girl heard this, they were so happy that they covered their stomachs and laughed.

Zhao Rongzhao was a little embarrassed. Raised his hand and touched the back of his head, and said with a smile: "Miss Lu......"

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted, and Lu Siqi pouted. said unhappily: "Brother Zhao, you didn't call me that when you were a child. If you have to be so angry, then I can't call you Brother Zhao anymore, I have to change my voice to call you Mr. Zhao. ”

"Don't ...... You still call Brother Zhao, Sister Siqi. Zhao Rongzhao hurriedly begged for mercy. Smiled and walked into the three of them, and asked curiously, "What are you discussing, see what you are talking about." I heard voices in the cloister outside. ”

Lu Siqi's father once worshiped under Mrs. Zhao and was considered Mrs. Zhao's protégé. Lu Siqi and Zhao Rongzhao are children of the same generation, and they are of similar age, when the two families come to play and walk around, most of them will bring the children at home.

However, Lu Siqi's temperament is optimistic and cheerful, and everyone looks familiar, plus she is a childhood playmate, and a few words of kung fu make everyone familiar with it.

It was past noon, and Grandma Song ordered someone to set up a banquet in the main hall of Tonghua Courtyard to entertain Lu Siqi, and specially called her son back, also to let him accompany him.

Earlier, Grandma Song mentioned that she wanted to marry the Lu family, which made Zhao Rongzhao, who only pretended to be a Liu Zijin in his heart, extremely disgusted, but after seeing the lively and cheerful Lu Siqi, she threw this thing out of the clouds.

After lunch, Zhao Rongzhao went to the front yard again, and the second and third girls also went back, leaving only Lu Siqi alone in Tonghua Courtyard, and Grandma Song led her to the back garden of Zhao's house, and walked along the small lake.

"Siqi, you're not too young, are you?" The two walked along the edge of the small lake, and Grandma Song asked tentatively.

"Well, I'm two years younger than Brother Rong Zhao." Lu Siqi nodded, raising her eyes to look at the Bamboo Bridge Water Pavilion on the small lake.

"Well, it's not small, I remember that at your age, you have been married to Rong Zhao's father for more than two years, and your family should have already set a family affair for you, right?" Grandma Song walked forward with her sleeves folded, as if she was reminiscing about the past, she asked unintentionally, and after asking, her eyes fell on Lu Siqi from time to time.

Lu Siqi shook her head and said with a smile: "No, my brother and father love me, saying that they want to keep me for a few more years and then marry." After a pause, he said: "In fact, in recent years, there have been many people who have come to propose marriage, and there are also many people who come to the door with the right family, but I haven't met a favorite person, maybe fate has not yet arrived." ”

Grandma Song was overjoyed, couldn't hold back the joy in her heart, and said with a smile: "Fate is such a thing, I can't be in a hurry, maybe I'm waiting for you there, your brother Rong Zhao is also not small, and the family often urges him to marry, every time he uses fate to prevaricate for this reason, I am really angry, I am afraid that he will not be able to marry a daughter-in-law in this life, and I don't want to hold my grandson in this life!" ”

Speaking of Zhao Rongzhao, Lu Siqi lowered his head a little embarrassed, and persuaded on the side: "Brother Rongzhao, he is talented, and he is another talent, maybe he hasn't met the person he likes yet, Aunt Zhao, this matter is not urgent." ”

"What a sweet-mouthed and kind girl!" Grandma Song took Lu Siqi's hands, held them in her palms, and said with great emotion: "If I can have a daughter-in-law like you, I should have accumulated virtue for several lifetimes, and I can go to see the ancestors of the Zhao family when I die." ”

Lu Siqi lowered her head in shame, and was a little embarrassed by her praise, "Aunt Zhao, don't praise me too hard, if you praise me again, I will float to the sky." ”

The old and the young talked happily with each other, and even agreed to meet at the house next time.

Before leaving, Mr. and Mrs. Zhao led their son and sent the Lu father and daughter to the door, until the father and daughter got into the sedan chair before turning around and returning to the court.

As soon as she went back, Grandma Song called her son to Tonghua Courtyard to talk. "Rong Zhao, my mother sees that you get along very well with Siqi, but you are interesting to others?" Grandma Song asked with a smile.

Zhao Rongzhao smiled awkwardly and dismissed his mother's speculation. said directly: "Mother, where do you want to go, I have been a brother and sister friendship with Siqi since I was a child, and I will not marry Zijin in this life." ”

As soon as she heard her son's bastard words, Grandma Song immediately crossed her face and said angrily: "How many times has my mother told you that Liu Zijin is a person in Fengyue Place." The flower girl who is indiscriminate under the three indiscriminate. Don't even think about entering the door of my Zhao family in this life! ”

Since she was a child, her mother has been elegant in facing herself at all times, and only one is related to Liu Zijin. It's like being touched by someone, and every time it will break up.

One is the woman who gave birth to herself, and the other is the person she loves, sandwiched in the middle. Zhao Rongzhao was indeed very embarrassed, after half a ring. Only then did he swallow a mouthful of saliva with difficulty, and said in a low voice: "Mother, I said it, she is also a poor person who has been fooled by fate." She is full of wealth and gets along with her children very happily, mother. You give her a chance to meet her in person. It's going to change her mind. ”

"What did you say?" Grandma Song was angry, pointed her hand at her son, and said in disbelief: "You still want your mother to see her?" To meet that kind of indiscriminate woman? You can afford to lose that person, but my mother still wants this old face, I sue you, you died of this heart as soon as possible! ”

Liu Zijin seems to have become a bomb, as long as it is mentioned, the mother and son are happy one moment, and the next moment they will quarrel, blushing and thick-necked, and making a lot of trouble.

Zhao Rongzhao complained that his mother was too arbitrary, and based on the rumors outside, he sentenced Liu Zijin to death, and regarded her as a prostitute, which was really too much, even if it was his biological mother, he couldn't forgive.

Grandma Song is blaming Liu Zijin for taking away her son's soul, the woman must be the reincarnation of the fox demon, her son was taken away by her, so he will be delirious, and she will help her speak, and her mother is the enemy, she hates Liu Zijin even more, whether she is a fox spirit or not, she must be a fox spirit, anyway, it is not her son who is wrong, the son is just fascinated by beauty for a while, it is really a pity for the parents of the world!

"Mother, you are inevitably too arbitrary, you haven't even seen her face, why do you insist that she is that kind of woman." Zhao Rongzhao was a little frustrated, it was not the first time he had an argument with his mother about this matter, there were too many quarrels, and Grandma Song was stubborn to the end, he was a little tired.

It's just that he forgot about it, Grandma Song is insisting on his own opinions, and why is he not stubborn to the end? It's not that no matter how much the family objected, they refused to cut off contact with Liu Zijin?!

"Your marriage is not up to your mother, let alone you, it is all up to your ancestors." Grandma Song didn't want to quarrel with her son every time, so she turned around and sat down, and said earnestly: "Do you think that my mother really didn't let people inquire about Liu Zijin's details?" She is the daughter of a criminal minister, and her mother just wants to sue you, if you marry Liu Zijin, the future of this life will be ruined, let alone embark on a career in office, I am afraid it is impossible to even inherit the family business! ”

Zhao Rongzhao was a little surprised, and suddenly felt a little at a loss, looking at the white hair on his mother's sideburns in a daze, he didn't know what to say for a while, and after standing for a long time, he said sullenly: "Mother, I don't expect to do something big in the future, but I want to be able to stay with her for a long time, and this life is enough." ”

As soon as the words fell, a slap swept over.

Grandma Song's whole arm was trembling, she hammered her chest with her hand, and said indignantly: "What did I give birth to you and raise you for?" I don't expect you to fight for the Zhao family and fight for your mother, if I had known that you could say this for a Qinglou woman today, I would rather strangle you in infancy than be disappointed in you now! ”

Mother can say these words, it can be seen that she has been sad to a certain extent, as the saying goes, mother and son are heart-to-heart, Zhao Rongzhao is also very uncomfortable, but once a person is imprinted in the heart and asked him to scrape off the name, how can he be reluctant and put it away?

"Mother, I know I've disappointed you, is this good, I promise you to study hard, strive to get fame as soon as possible, and win glory for the Zhao family, but can you also promise me that after I get fame, let me marry Liu Zijin?" Zhao Rongzhao suddenly knelt on his knees, his hands hammered at his side clenched into fists, and his nails almost pierced into the flesh of his palms.

The son took the initiative to make concessions, but Grandma Song refused to back down a step, "You were born in the Zhao family, and winning glory for the family is your classification, and there is no condition to talk about." What's more, if Zhao Rongzhao gets fame and embarks on a career in the future, then he will not be able to marry a Qinglou woman as his wife, and it will only make people laugh and be generous.

"Mother, what do you want me to do before you agree to me?" Zhao Rongzhao was almost desperate, roaring and shouting such a sentence, even he was startled.

Grandma Song's calm eyes blinked, looked at her son solemnly, and said word by word: "Rong Zhao, a manly husband, three wives and four concubines are common, but there is only one point, the wife must be a girl with an innocent family background, Liu Zijin wants to marry, yes, after you marry the wife, you want to raise her as an aunt, the mother will not stop you, but the wife must be the woman set for you by the family." ”

"Mother......" Zhao Rongzhao still wanted to refute, but as soon as he spoke, Grandma Song waved her hand, held her forehead and said: "Mother is really tired today, I want to be quiet, please don't let my mother worry anymore, okay, go out." ”

After speaking, the mother-in-law beside Grandma Song stepped forward and said to Zhao Rongzhao, "Young Master, please." ”

"The child retires, and the mother rests." Zhao Rongzhao couldn't, so he had to reluctantly retreat.

Grandma Song looked at his back in a daze, and said sadly: "My stupid son, I don't know whose temperament it is, if his father can have half of his infatuation, why would our mother and son be reduced to the point of being squeezed everywhere......"

Zhao Rongzhao was still thinking about how to persuade his mother to take another step back.

In terms of attitude towards this matter, Grandma Song threatened with her life at the beginning, and did not allow Liu Zijin to step into the Zhao family for half a step, to now she is willing to agree to her entering the door as a concubine, which is already a great success, he thinks, as long as he insists on it a little longer, his mother may agree to him marrying Liu Zijin through the door to be the main room.

Liu Zijin was arrogant and let her enter the door as a concubine, I am afraid that she would rather die alone in the Bangxiang Building than give someone a concubine, such a proud girl, how could he ruthlessly say to her that she should be a concubine? Therefore, it would be easier to find a breakthrough from his mother, Zhao Rongzhao thought so and walked out of Tonghua Academy. (To be continued) R655
