Chapter 190: The Gift
When Zhen Miao entered, the old man was also there, grabbing a piece of dim sum to eat, and the old lady wiped his mouth with a handkerchief and handed him tea.
The old man took the tea, didn't drink it, and smiled at the old lady.
The old lady also smiled: "Drink quickly, don't choke." β
Zhen Miao blinked, and was a little hesitant to make a sound.
On the contrary, the old lady turned her head and naturally greeted: "Daughter-in-law, come, your grandfather was still clamoring to eat the dim sum you sent last time, what is it called Jade Liangguo?" β
Zhen Miao walked over: "Well, it's called Jade Liangguo." β
"Granddaughter-in-law, I want to eat, I want to eat." The old man ran over, pointed to the half-eaten dim sum, and looked aggrieved, "This, not as delicious as that." β
Zhen Miao knew that this grandfather especially liked sweets, but at his age, it was not good to eat too many sweets, especially the jade jelly fruit mixed with glutinous rice flour, which was not easy to digest, so he only occasionally made a few pieces and sent them here.
Seeing the old man looking at her pitifully, Zhen Miao coaxed: "Grandfather, granddaughter-in-law will also make a kind of dim sum, which is sweeter than jade jelly fruit, very delicious." Would you like to send it to you in the afternoon? β
"Sweet?" There was pure joy in the old man's eyes, but then he looked at the old lady cautiously.
The old lady made a straight face: "It's very sweet, you can only eat one." β
Although she didn't understand, Imperial Doctor Zhang once said that elderly people should eat less sweet and greasy things, otherwise they are prone to thirst.
"Granddaughter-in-lawβ" The old man pulled Zhen Miao's sleeves.
Zhen Miao smiled: "Grandmother, what my granddaughter-in-law wants to do is pumpkin pie, and she doesn't put sugar." Pumpkin moistens the lungs and invigorates qi, and also has the effect of preventing thirst. β
"Really?" The old lady was a little curious when she heard this.
Pumpkin was a lowly thing for the common people to eat in the Great Zhou, and it rarely appeared on the tables of the rich and noble.
Zhen Miao nodded fiercely.
The old lady sighed: "Daughter-in-law, I didn't expect you to know a lot. β
Zhen Miao smiled: "If you love to eat, you must be able to eat." β
The old man didn't understand what the two said, so he only grabbed one point: "Can you eat a lot?" β
"No more than four." Zhen Miao stretched out four fingers.
One, four. Lao Guogong quickly calculated the difference, and happily grabbed Zhen Miao's sleeve: "Granddaughter-in-law, I'll take you to the kitchen." β
Pull?
The corners of Zhen Miao's mouth twitched.
The old lady coughed: "Ahem, daughter-in-law, you came here at this time, but what's the matter?" β
The old man's favorite thing was the horse chasing the wind, and the granddaughter-in-law was in a position to come from behind.
"Yuan Niang just went to me, but she fainted, San Lang went to ask for a doctor, and Erlang carried Yuan Niang to come to you. I go fast. It came first. β
"How is Yuan Niang?" The old lady was a little surprised, and then frowned, "Yuan Niang is unwell, how could she go to you?" β
Zhen Miao thought for a while and said, "It's probably because I'm not feeling well, and I've walked so far that my body can't stand it." β
"What nonsense!" The old lady's face sank.
At this time, she still didn't understand what Yuan Niang was doing when she went to Qingfeng Hall.
I thought this granddaughter was a dignified and steady person, but I didn't expect that she was a little clever and narrow-minded.
I want to be at the beginning. If she gave Yuan Niang to Brother He'er, I am afraid she would not accept it as calmly as Erniang.
So it's important to have preconceived impressions.
Zhen Miao took the first step to tell the old lady that Yuan Niang went to Qingfeng Hall, and then fainted, and the old lady was unhappy in her heart. Even when he saw Yuan Niang who was unconscious and had blood at the corner of her mouth, she lost her original horror, but was stunned for a moment, and said, "Quickly carry Yuan Niang to the compartment." β
Erlang placed Yuan Niang well. turned around and knelt down: "Please grandmother make the decision for my sister." β
"Calling the shots?" The old lady whispered these two words.
Erlang took a deep breath and was about to speak, when he saw the old man who was sitting in the corner eating snacks running over. He knelt down with a look of novelty.
Jiro was stupid right now.
The old lady hurriedly helped the old man up and reprimanded, "Don't get up first." β
Jiro had to stand up.
At this time, Saburo came with a doctor.
"The big girl is inside, take the doctor in." The old lady instructed Hongfu.
The doctor was curious, didn't this big girl still hurt her forehead in the morning, why is she in Yee On Hall again at this time?
He is the exclusive doctor that the Guogong Mansion has always supported, so he naturally knows what to say and what not to say, so he went in without any extra expression on his face.
San Lang immediately became angry: "Grandmother, my sister was made like this by my sister-in-law, you can't ignore it!" β
"San Lang, you kid, when will your frizzy temperament change! The doctor is still in the cubicle, you have to shout that you know that it can't be done, what good is this for Yuan Niang's reputation? β
Saburo, who asked a few words, was speechless.
Erlang kept staring at Zhen Miao, his eyes cold.
After a while, the doctor came out: "Back to the old lady, the eldest girl is angry, just recuperate for a few days, it's okay." β
The old lady nodded: "Hard work, Hongfu, take the doctor down." β
Knowing that Yuan Niang was fine, Erlang and Saburo breathed a sigh of relief.
"Grandmotherβ" Saburo said unwillingly, but was interrupted by the old lady.
"Erlang, Sanlang, grandmother is not old and confused. Let me ask you, what did Yuan Niang do when she went to Qingfeng Hall like this? No need to ask, I know what she thinks! If this matter is really investigated, what good can we get? β
"That's it, that's it?" San Lang glanced at Zhen Miao angrily.
"Of course it won't be left at that. In the future, Yuan Niang was placed in Xinyuan, and she was not allowed to go out at will before leaving the pavilion. I can't just watch her happen to her and ruin herself! β
"Grandmother!" Jiro and Saburo were taken aback.
Grandmother, is this grounding Yuan Niang?
The old lady glanced at Erlang: "Erlang, you are the eldest son of the second room, and you are not too young, so you can't be so impulsive in the future." β
"Yes." Erlang responded depressedly, the more he thought about it, the more unpleasant it became.
Obviously, I wanted to ask my grandmother to make decisions for Yuan Niang, but why did it become a lesson for them?
He knew that it must have been Zhen who made the first move to force what he told his grandmother!
Erlang raised his head and met Zhen Miao's eyes.
The gaze was light and shallow, as if it couldn't hide any thoughts.
Jiro looked away and snorted coldly.
Sure enough, it will be loaded!
Sister-in-law, let's come to Japan for a long time!
"Granddaughter-in-law, I want to eat pumpkin pie!"
Zhen Miao glanced at the old lady.
The old lady was helpless: "Go ahead." If you are missing, tell the big kitchen directly. β
"Whoa." Zhen Miao responded, and appeased the old man a few more words, and then retreated.
Jiro and Saburo left with black faces.
It was almost noon, and Tian came back alone.
"Where's the second child?"
"He said there was still something to deal with in the yamen." Tian's heart was not very happy.
It's just a five-grade official, why have there been so many things recently!
"Ugh. Tian, Yuan Niang is resting here with me, you can go and take a look. β
"Why is Yuan Niang here?"
The old lady said the matter and said in a deep voice: "Tian, Erlang, they love their sister. I'm happy, but you can't be confused! If Yuan Niang doesn't stop thinking about it, you think for yourself, what kind of disaster will it bring to the Guogong Mansion and herself! β
The calmer the old lady became, the more sober she became.
This eldest granddaughter is really a person who can't afford to let go.
This kind of temperament is the easiest to take advantage of small advantages and suffer big losses!
"My daughter-in-law knows." Tian Shi Nuo should be, and his heart was extremely depressed.
I don't know what's going on lately, but the family keeps being unlucky. Even she and the old man have quarreled several times, and the husband and wife have never been so cold!
Could it be that Zhen really has any evil nature?
Tian's heart sank, and he wondered if it was time to go back to his parents' house.
Her brother-in-law has not been pregnant for many years. Burning incense and worshiping the Buddha everywhere did not see any movement, but I didn't expect to meet an aunt at the beginning of the year, which was extremely effective, and now I have been in body for more than two months.
Maybe. She can also find that aunt to see if there is a problem with Zhen!
Tian went to see Yuan Niang with a concern.
The old lady sighed.
In the house, things are getting more and more.
Second Master Luo didn't come back with Tian. Naturally, I went to Xinghua Lane.
I didn't think it was like it before, but now that I think about Tian's strength, I like the lady's meekness and thoughtfulness more and more.
It's a pity that the lady has a body, so she can only look at it and can't move.
Second Master Luo's lower abdomen gradually gathered a fire, and he felt uncomfortable staying there, so he had to get up and leave.
These days, Second Master Luo has come a lot, and the lady looks happy, and she looks even more gentle and moving: "Master, you go slowly." β
"Well, you go back, have a good rest, I'll come back tomorrow when I'm free."
When I walked out of the gate and walked out along the alley, I was greeted by a woman in Tsing Yi.
This woman doesn't use powder, she is beautiful, just walking like this, she has infinite style, who is not the Yan Niang who lives next door!
She didn't wear a hat today, she had a plain face, and Second Master Luo couldn't help but take a few more looks.
Yan Niang seemed to be a little surprised, lowered her head and bowed slightly as she staggered, and hurriedly walked over.
Second Master Luo turned around, only to see that the silk silk tied around the woman's waist hung down to the skirt and was pressed with two beads.
Second Master Luo took a deep breath and quickened his pace and walked out of the alley.
Although he sent someone to investigate, he didn't find anything unusual for the time being, but he still planned to take another look.
Women, in the final analysis, can only be enjoyed with power and wealth, and if they lose their power and wealth for the sake of a woman, it is not worth it.
The sun was setting in the west, and Luo Tianhuo went out of the yamen surrounded by several people.
"My lord, today's subordinates are the east, and the brothers will go to Tianke to gather together?"
Tiankelai is a famous restaurant in the capital, and the price is expensive.
A few people coaxed: "Yo, Ma Liu, what's the happy event today?" β
Ma Liu smiled: "Anyway, I'm happy today, why don't you talk so much nonsense when you drink?" β
He couldn't say that his daughter-in-law had been around for more than a month.
"Go, go, how can you not go!" They are all young people, and they work together, so there is no reason why someone should invite a guest to drink.
Luo Tianhuo coughed lightly: "Brothers, I still have some things, so I won't accompany you today." β
"My lord, you can't do it without you!"
"I'm really in trouble." Luo Tianhui shook his hand, and a piece of silver appeared, "Today, Ma Liu invites everyone to dinner, and I will invite you to drink, which can be regarded as making amends to the brothers." β
It is not easy for the people to persuade them any more.
It's good that this lord got off the office, but he was cold-faced when he did things, and he was in awe in his heart.
When everyone left, Luo Tianhuo stood on the street and was a little dazed.
What is a good gift for her? (To be continued......)
