Zhang was shocked when he heard this, and his heart was worried: "I really did something wrong, didn't I?" ”

Mrs. Cao sighed and shook her head: "It's not that you shouldn't help Zhao Ze, when the imperial historian of the court talked about this matter before, I also advised you, how much to give, don't let people gossip, how can you say that you shouldn't do it now?" I said you were confused, because you shouldn't have done it. Zhao Ze, no matter how the Niu family and his brothers and sisters treat him, they are all his relatives. Even if you don't say that you have a grudge, don't say that his house is already out of the clan and an outsider, you also split up ten years ago. Whether his family is good or bad for him has nothing to do with you. Besides, his life is much better now, he has errands, and he doesn't worry about food and clothing, what else do you need to help him? ”

Zhang remembered that he had mentioned the house to Zhao Xiu, and was silent.

Mrs. Cao continued: "If your grandchildren have the same thoughts as you, pity Zhao Ze, and are willing to pull him, then it doesn't hurt if you help him more." Or maybe the Niu family is not so greedy and rude, Zhao Ze's younger brothers and sisters are polite and sensible, if you help them more, others can't say anything. But now that the ancestors of the Niu family are that virtuous, and your grandchildren have complaints again, why do you worry about Zhao Ze anymore? Aren't you afraid of helping too much, asking the Niu family to climb up along the vine again and cause trouble for your grandson? No matter how pitiful Zhao Ze is, he is also separated from you by blood, is your grandchildren closer to you, or Zhao Ze is closer to you? How can he make his two grandsons and granddaughters unhappy for Zhao Ze? I see that your two children are excellent, and no matter how unhappy you are, you will still be allowed to do what you want. It's really filial. But children are filial, you as a grandmother should also understand, don't make them angry again and again. ”

Zhang lowered his head and sighed: "It's me who wants to fork." As soon as I saw Zegoer's child. Thinking that in the south that day, he was beaten half to death by his Lao Tzu, and he desperately hugged his Lao Tzu's leg to prevent him from rushing up and hurting me, I couldn't help but feel more sorry for him. It is said that he is my great-grandson, and when the county grandfather is still there, his mother often brings her children to greet me. I kind of watched him grow up. He was good-looking when he was a child, playing with Brother Wei, like a little golden boy. I like it when I look at him, and I love him as much as my own great-grandson. Where did you think that there would be a change in the future? Back then, he was also the elder brother of the Hou Mansion, and he grew up with gold and dignity, but later he was disliked by his grandmother and father. He also called the concubines and sisters to bully. Even his own sister doesn't take him seriously, and his father wants to beat him to death for personal gain. Not to mention that I have loved him since I was a child, even if I don't know someone, I will inevitably feel distressed when I see it. This distress made me forget my proportions. ”

Mrs. Cao patted the back of her hand: "Now that you know, what to do in the future, you know it in your own heart." Seriously, if you really care about your child. The idea was to tell him to be separated from his grandmother and siblings. At that time, no matter how good you were to him, it would only cost some money. Don't worry that the ancestors of the Niu family will be entangled. For your grandson, there will be no trouble. ”

Zhang smiled when he heard this: "Look at what you said, that is Ze Ge'er's own grandmother and sister, even if it is a cousin and a cousin, they are also blood relatives, how can I tell him to separate from them?" Now it's nothing, he has an errand in the study's shop, he has no worries about food and clothing, at most he just gives his grandmother some more silver, and his life is a little poor. I originally wanted to give him more, but now that I think about it, he is so filial to his grandmother, and no matter how much I give him, in the end, it will be cheaper for Niu, and he himself is still poor, so I might as well not give it. There are shops in the horizontal and vertical areas, and he will not starve to death. Now that Wang Dongsheng is back, he always thinks about the old relationship with Zhao Jue, and will inevitably take care of Zhao Jue's family. Without me, they could have lived a good life, and I wouldn't have to do much. ”

Mrs. Cao smiled and shook her head: "You are too decent." Of course, it's a good thing to be decent. ”

Zhang had some doubts in his heart, what did Mrs. Cao mean by this? But the other party just laughed and didn't say anything, so she had to stop asking, and the two talked about family life again.

Zhao Xiu didn't know that the old ladies had just had a conversation, the topic was what she was interested in, and she was happily leaning on the car window and enjoying the scenery outside the window.

Originally, Bilian also persuaded her: "If the girl wants to see the scenery, just lift a corner of the curtain and look quietly, don't lift the whole curtain, carefully let the people outside see your appearance." ”

Zhao Xiu was depressed, she was a ten-year-old girl, what were she afraid of being seen by outsiders? What's more, she is now on the traveling carriage, and there are servants from the Cao and Zhao families on both sides of the carriage to escort her, where is it so easy to be seen? However, Bilian will remind her like this, which means that if her grandmother knows, she will also remind her. Now it is not the Zhao family that acts by themselves, but with the Cao family, it is better for her to pay attention to her words and deeds.

After thinking about it, she simply took out her light gauze handkerchief, covered it on the window frame, and looked out through the gauze handkerchief, although it was not very clear, but it could also see some scenery in hazy and hazy places. And when people outside look inside, they can only see a white cloud, so they are not afraid of being seen, right?

Bilian was still a little worried, Zhao Xiu simply asked her brother to ride over and take a look, looking in from the car window, if she could see the appearance of their master and servant. Zhao Wei rode a horse and looked around from afar, making sure that she couldn't see it no matter how far or near she was, so Bilian was silent, and helped Zhao Xiu to cover the veil and look at the scenery outside the window with her head to head.

In fact, she is also very interested in the scenery outside. Although she is not as good as Zhao Xiu, she is a deep boudoir lady, but when she was a child, she was at most in the back street of Houfu or the Drum Tower, and she had almost no chance to go out of the city. Later, I became Zhao Xiu's personal girl, at most, I followed Zhao Xiu to see the scenery of the south of the Yangtze River, but I really haven't seen the autumn scenery on the outskirts of the capital, and now I feel very fresh.

Autumn in the suburbs of Beijing is very different from the south of the Yangtze River, looking from afar, it is a field after the autumn harvest, brown and yellow, but the mountains in the distance have layers of bright colors, red, orange, yellow, green, green, compared with the vitality of spring, it is completely different and rich.

Zhao Xiu looked at the beautiful autumn scenery and admired it in his heart. Suddenly I felt dissatisfied. Why did she enjoy such a beautiful view through a veil? Fortunately, the Cao family's Zhuangzi heard that it is at the foot of the West Mountain, and the red leaves of the West Mountain are also very famous. You will be able to enjoy an even more beautiful autumn scenery there. She also has ink pigments, paper and pens in her luggage, I wonder if she can leave one percent of this beautiful scenery on the drawing paper after practicing calligraphy and painting for several years?

Zhao Wei rode a horse and followed his sister's carriage, running to his grandmother and Mrs. Cao's carriage from time to time, bending down to say a few words with him, and then manipulating the reins and running away. Zhao Xiu was envious. She called Zhao Wei over and asked him in a low voice: "Brother, if you go to the village, the place should be open." Can you let me ride a horse too? ”

Zhao Wei hesitated, looked at the carriage in front and behind, and lowered his voice: "This time it's on Caojiazhuang, forget it." If you like. Let's go to our own village another day, and ride as long as you like. ”

"Okay." Zhao Xiu put down the curtain of the car in some frustration, Zhao Wei suddenly felt a little unbearable, but he was embarrassed to do something unruly on other people's land, after thinking about it, he ran to the side of the road, dismounted and picked a small bunch of wild flowers, and then asked the farmers in the field to buy two bags of fruits wrapped in wide leaves. He rode back again and handed his sister's car window: "Don't be depressed. Now we are going to other people's homes as guests, so naturally we are not as comfortable at home as we are. My brother promised you that if the Cao family also let his girl go horseback riding, my brother would definitely take you with him. ”

Zhao Xiu had already put aside that frustration, and when he saw the wildflowers he picked and the fruits he bought, he was surprised and delighted, and hurriedly took it in: "Where did this come from?" ”

The wildflowers are small, purple, yellow, and white, I don't know what the name is, but they have a fragrance of the field, which is very different from the potted flowers that Zhao Xiu is used to seeing in the mansion gate. The fruit is jujube, with a little green, but when you bite into it, it is crisp and sweet, which makes people want to eat it.

Zhao Xiu couldn't help but lift the curtain again to talk to his brother, only to see Zhao Wei coming back from a circle outside at some point, but this time he brought back a few dogwoods tied with red ropes, with branches and leaves, and small red fruits on them. Zhao Wei smiled and threw the bird into her sister's car window: "I saw someone selling this on the side of the road, saying that it was worn on the body, but it was also suitable for the occasion." Let's play with it, sister. ”

Zhao Xiu picked up a bundle and looked at it carefully, only to feel that the fruit was very cute red, and even the branches and leaves were very fresh. Bi Lian also took a look at it, and said with a smile: "It turns out that the people outside use red rope to tie up the dogwood and wear it on the body, and we all use the high-quality red ground yarn to make a yarn bag at home, and put the dogwood up, and wear it on the body with bead strings and tassels, which is much more exquisite than this." ”

Zhao Xiu smiled: "This custom thing wants to be suitable for the situation, so what's the point?" I think it's more fun to wear it this way. ”

She pinned a bundle of dogwood to the placket, took the other two, and called her brother: "Brother should send one to grandmother and Mrs. Cao, and if there are still small flowers on the side of the road, pick a bouquet and send it." ”

Zhao Wei took the dogwood, a little puzzled: "It's just a matter of sending this, what are you doing sending flowers?" ”

Zhao Xiu glanced at him: "My brother really doesn't understand his daughter's heart, don't you know that from three years old to eighty, women love flowers?" She couldn't help but laugh as she spoke, and let him go as he thought about it.

Zhao Wei touched his nose, and sure enough, he picked a large bouquet of wildflowers and sent it to the window of his grandmother's carriage: "My sister said that Mrs. Cao and grandmother should also enjoy this autumn scene, but I don't know if the two elders like it." ”

Zhang naturally liked it, took the bouquet and dogwood, and was a little embarrassed: "You listen to your sister messing around, what kind of flowers do you want to give?" I'm an old woman. ”

Mrs. Cao laughed and said, "Who said that an old woman can't like flowers?" I dare to wear flowers. Sure enough, she folded a crimson unknown flower and put it on her head, and the girl hurriedly tidied up her hair.

However, Mrs. Cao dared to do this because she had a hearty temperament, and Zhang was still embarrassed: "I'm ...... old" Mrs. Cao glanced at her: "Are you laughing at my old woman complaining?" Who says we can't dress up when we're old? Come, come, I'll dress you, and if anyone laughs, just ask him to come and talk to me. As he spoke, he pulled her hard and put a little yellow chrysanthemum on her hairpin.

After the hairpin was finished, Mrs. Cao glanced at Zhang and nodded with satisfaction: "Isn't this very good-looking?" I really envy you, look at your grandson, how clever he is, and he knows how to send flowers to honor his grandmother, it's so cute. Where are my stupid children and grandchildren, who will only honor my wife and son! Where did I get that old? ”

Cao Tai and the general rode in front, and the wind brought his wife's labor, and when he heard the words, he couldn't help but shrink his neck, but he didn't hear anything. (To be continued......)
