Chapter 108: Interdependence
Zeng Zhixian smiled lightly again, and looked at her with a smile, as if the separation between them had never been there, just like when the two were talking in the garden in the backyard of the Hou Mansion. Then Yanran smiled again, no, it's different, many things have begun to change, such as the identity between herself and her. But some things, perhaps, will never change.
Yan Ran pressed down the memories that rose in her heart and said with a smile: "The little young master is almost two years old, I originally made him a few clothes, but I didn't send them, and at this time, those clothes can't be worn!" โ
Zeng Zhixian looked at Yan Ran and said: "He won't waste it if he can't wear it, and what about you, speaking of which, you've been married for almost half a year, right?" "It's been half a year, and it's time for the news to come out. Yan Ran's face couldn't help but blush slightly before she said, "It's still early!" โ
Early? Zeng Zhixian was about to speak again, but Yanran had already gotten up: "Look, it's almost time, let's go over!" Zeng Zhixian smiled again: "Look, I'm still shy at this time, I've been married for half a year, and I still think I'm a new daughter-in-law?" โ
Yanran ignored Zeng Zhixian and left quickly, Zeng Zhixian couldn't help but laugh and followed her out. Not long after they left, two maids came to the pavilion, and one of them complained a little when he looked at the empty pavilion with a round face: "Sister Chulan, the third grandmother and Grandma Shi are not here at all, and they want us to look for someone, so I'm okay, how can you stand such a grievance?" โ
"It's not uncommon for this to be nobody, they have long legs, they can go wherever they want, let's go, let's go back and talk to Aunt Zhu!" Chu Lan is nineteen this year, and the clothes and ornaments on her body are better than those of other maids, and the maid who was talking to her looked at Chu Lan and sighed: "Hey, Sister Chu Lan, if it weren't for Aunt Zhu and Grandma Zhu blocking her head, she would have changed her name to your aunt and grandmother." Aunt Zhuโกโก has been fine for a few years, but in the past two years, she has become more and more serious about her master! โ
Who is rare to be the master's aunt, although it has been three or four years since he was accepted by Master Rong, but Chu Lan's heart is only on Rong Erye, not to mention the handsome and young man, even that incident, it must be more considerate and ......, Chu Lan's face is slightly red, and now there is only one thought, I hope that the master does not remember that he has used himself and rewarded himself to Rong Erye, at that time, he will also round his mind.
Be an aunt, and be his. Chu Lan naturally couldn't say such a thing, so she only said to the maid: "You, this mouth is very bad, if Aunt Zhu hears it, you will suffer again!" โ
"What are you afraid of her doing? No matter how favored she is, no matter how much she is in charge, she is just an aunt, even if she gives me some hardship, it is just deducting some things, who cares about those things? Chu Lan couldn't help but purse her lips and smile, the two continued to walk outside, and saw Rong Yuzhi and a few girls talking and laughing and walking over, Chu Lan and the two of them hurriedly lowered their hands and stood up, Chu Lan gave Rong Yuzhi a salute and said: "Hello Miss, Aunt Zhu said that the banquet should be held again at this time, let's come to the garden and invite you to the front seat!" โ
When Rong Yuzhi heard this, he said hard to Chu Lan, and turned around with the girls to go outside. Waiting for Rong Yuzhi to leave, the maid said: "Hey, look at Miss's style, we can't catch up." When shall we make slaves and slaves? โ
Chu Lan smiled lightly and said: "What's this, when the master takes a fancy to you, gives you a head, opens your face, and becomes an aunt, can't you also make the slave maid wear gold and silver?" The maid's lips were already pursed: "It's different, Aunt Zhu is still in charge of the family, but she can't sit in front of the table today." โ
"Do you still want to be big? Speaking of which, it has been six or seven years since the wife passed away, and the lord has not remarried, if the lord really takes a fancy to you, then we should change our words! Chu Lan said a joke, but the maid took it seriously: "It's a pity that I'm not so blessed." โ
Then the maid looked around, lowered her voice, and said, "Have you heard?" Our third grandmother was originally a servant, but later released by the master, she was favored by the third master and hired back as a wife, you say, why is she so blessed? โ
Three grandma? Chu Lan's eyebrows furrowed slightly, remembering the complaints he had with Rong Er Ye when he was in love, and there were others. Chu Lan couldn't help biting her lower lip, if she could say some words about the third master and the third grandmother in front of the master, then the master would be tired of the third master and the third grandmother, and the second master became the head of the family, and he made the first contribution.
Thinking about it, Chu Lan said: "This is also her blessing!" โ
"What blessing?" The maid's mouth pouted: "You don't know, do you?" I heard the little guys who went to the capital with the master secretly say that the third grandmother was originally not the third master, but the third master's friend! "Chu Lan really doesn't know about this, so she can't help but think about it slowly in her heart, and it's best to inquire carefully before she can say something to Master Rong.
Everyone returned to their seats, because they had already drunk a few glasses of wine, and the atmosphere was much warmer than in the morning, and even the drama on the stage began to pick up the gentle drama to sing. Grandma Yu glanced at the stage and said to Zhou: "Speaking of which, didn't this sister-in-law of your family keep saying that she wanted to choose a son-in-law?" Why haven't you picked it up yet? โ
The Rong family is very rich, even if it is an elderly son-in-law, for the sake of so much family wealth, there are countless people who want to catch this skill. Zhou Shi already smiled lightly: "This matter, my uncle said it, I feel sorry for my sister-in-law, thinking that she is still young, wait a few more years!" โ
"Your eldest lady, you're seventeen this year, right? This age is not too young! "Marriage is always something that many people like to discuss, and the words of Zhou and Grandma Yu immediately attracted the attention of the people next to them, and they also interjected.
The smile on Zhou's face did not change, and his words were so faint: "Less than twenty, it's not very big." Uncle loves sister-in-law, can we still say nothing? The person next to him understood and talked about something else.
Zeng Zhixian glanced at the seat, and then said to Yanran: "Although there are not many people in your family, I am afraid that all of this person's thoughts are different!" Yanran looked at Zeng Zhixian: "What, are you still worried about this?"
At this time, it is you, me, Zeng Zhixian is not annoyed, only gently pushes Yanran, and then says: "No, I, I just look forward to your house being more lively, so that you can see the excitement." Yanran smiled, and then said to Zeng Zhixian: "I have been here for a short time, I don't know yet, wait a few days, I will visit you!" โ
"Okay, you must go, and you must prepare a thick meeting gift, otherwise, I won't let you in!" Zeng Zhixian's words made Grandma Song, who had never spoken, reluctantly speak: "Grandma Shi's conversation is still so good!" โ
"Now that I've seen it at the table, I always have to talk and laugh, otherwise what's the fun of sitting here watching the play and drinking?" Zeng Zhixian knew that the daughter of Hanlin would inevitably be a little high, but if she was too high, it would inevitably make people a little annoyed.
Grandma Song looked at Zeng Zhixian, and when she saw that she was still smiling like a flower, she couldn't help lowering her eyes. In terms of identity, although Hanlin is noble, in front of the daughter of the Hou Mansion, it is nothing more than that. And this is the real daughter of the Hou Mansion. Yanran's eyes glanced at Grandma Song's face, then moved away and continued to talk to Zeng Zhixian.
The banquet was dispersed in the evening, and the guests were sent away, and for the first time, they entertained by themselves, instead of accompanying the hosts out to socialize, which was really different from the original. As soon as she was idle at this moment, Yanran felt that her bones were sore.
After a few more words with Zhou's Qiu, Yanran returned to her room, and just walked into the room and sat on the chair and didn't want to get up, Qiulan had already brought a cup of tea: "Grandma first drink tea to moisten it." The third master also said that at this banquet, it is inevitable that he will not be full, so he asked the kitchen to make two bowls of shredded chicken noodles and send them! โ
"Your third master, you've already returned?" Yan Ran took the teacup and took a sip of hot tea, only to feel that the person slowly eased up, and raised her eyes to ask Qiulan.
"I came back early, but I just didn't see you come in?" Rong Qi had already lifted the curtain of the inner room, leaning against the door and laughing. Yanran glanced at him and said, "Yes, you can serve yourself, I'm very tired!" โ
"This kind of socializing, for the first time, is always inevitable!" Rong Qi knew why his wife was so tired, and she had to break a string at this time, how could she not be tired? Yanran closed her eyes and lay on the table: "Well, you won't blame me, you know, the eldest sister-in-law, the second sister-in-law, and even the sister-in-law, are all laughing and moaning like that, and they are not tired at all!" โ
Rong Qi stepped forward and pinched his wife's neck, Qiulan and the others couldn't help but widen their eyes when they saw it, Yanran didn't jump up, but pointed to her shoulder with her finger and asked her husband to pinch her shoulder again. Rong Qi looked at his wife's rare laziness and smiled: "Actually, if you are in front of people, don't be thoughtful, no one will laugh at you." โ
"I'm used to it, I can't change it!" Yanran's answer was very categorical, Rong Qi couldn't help but smile, in fact, he was not the same, he would put in a lot of effort to show his uncle how capable he was. As for the wife, she wants to prove that the Rong family is not wrong to marry herself, although her background is not as good as that of the eldest sister-in-law and the second sister-in-law. My husband and wife are really a natural couple.
Yanran felt her husband's hand pinching her neck stop, opened her eyes and looked at her husband, with a little dissatisfaction in her eyes: "Why did you stop?" In this case, there can be no reward. Rong Qi sat next to his wife and reached out to pinch her nose: "Look, how good you are now." โ
Yanran understood the meaning of these words, and she lay on the table again: "It's different, you're different from them." โ
Rong Qi snorted, and ripples began to ripple in his heart, it's different, with his wife, isn't this sentence different? Soon Yan Ran smiled: "But don't look at me like this, don't feel sorry for me, I was born in the backyard of the Hou Mansion, and many things are much more than you think." โ
His wife is a person who is soft on the outside and strong on the inside, Rong Qi believes this, he held Yanran's hand: "I know, but I still want to say, don't fight so hard, you still have me." โ
