Chapter 281: Flower Affair (6)
Cao's mood was very good, and he drank the wine in the cup in one gulp, and asked the maid to fill it up.
The family banquet was already relaxed, and besides, it was all smiling and the atmosphere was harmonious. Cao's couldn't help but drink a few more glasses, and Duan's was also infected by Cao's joy, so he didn't think much about what Zhenlin couldn't come, and drank some with him.
Zhen Xuan glanced at Cao's family, and somehow she felt that Cao's had unfinished words, but for a while, she couldn't think of anything else that could be called a happy event.
Until the banquet was withdrawn, when Zhen Xuan and Xia Yiqing were about to say goodbye, looking at Zhen Qi sent out, she suddenly realized.
Fourth Master Fu is about to arrive in the capital.
Zhen Lin mentioned it before she got married, and the team to send her relatives will be able to enter Beijing in about a month, so it is the situation of the past few days.
Fu Lingyao married and married, no matter what the royal family and the Fu family think of this family matter, Fu Siye, who has a deep relationship with Fu Lingyao's brothers and sisters, must be reluctant, and sent all the way to Beidi, who has a deep hatred for the Fu family, Fu Siye is worried about Fu Lingyao, needless to say, it is normal for the Cao family and Zhenqi to worry about Fu Siye's safety.
And now, I can finally breathe a sigh of relief.
Zhen Lin has already gotten into the sedan chair, and when she returns to Yongzhou, the Cao family is going to set a date with Mrs. Fu San, and she is going to get married.
It's also a great event.
I waited in Qinghua Hutong for a few days, but there was no news that the family sending team had arrived in the suburbs of Beijing.
Zhiqi lowered his hand and said: "The fifth lady of the Pei family is here, and Tao Aya is out of the house to greet her." ”
Zhen Xuan glanced at the chess player suspiciously, how could Zhen Qi not mention it in advance. Suddenly it came.
Zhenqi came with the help of Momo Aya. Zhen Xuan raised her eyes. Seeing that her eyes were red and slightly swollen, and she looked like she had cried, she couldn't help but be shocked: "Fifth sister, what's wrong?" ”
The chess exercise blessed the body, and said: "The slave maid went to the kitchen to have a look and sent some pastries." ”
Zhen Xuan nodded, she knew that she was playing chess to avoid suspicion. The bottom is her mother's affair, and it is reasonable to avoid chess.
Only Momo Aya was left in the house to serve, and Apricot Aya went out to guard the door.
Zhenqi sat down beside Zhen Xuan, sniffed, and said: "The weather has been bad these days, and it has rained continuously, and my mother's body is a little uncomfortable. When the eldest uncle came back last night, my brother asked about the sending team, but the eldest uncle said that Fu Siye had contracted the disease a few years ago and seemed to have recurred. That's why the trip was delayed. When my mother heard about it, she was a little worried and didn't sleep well at night. I had a headache in the morning and couldn't get up. ”
Zhen Xuan frowned, a few days ago, the Cao family was so happy and radiant, who would have thought that he would be sick in just a few days. Zhen Xuan held Zhen Qi's hand and said, "What did the doctor say?" ”
"It's said that it's a cold wind, so you have to rest for a while."
Zhen Qi will come in a hurry, it will not be just because Cao is sick, I am afraid that there are other reasons, Zhen Xuan did not ask, and waited patiently for Zhen Qi to continue.
"When a mother is sick, she must always be by her side. I just want to tell my brother, who knows......" Zhenqi's eyes turned red again, pouted, and said, "Brother, he didn't even say a word, he rode out of the city early in the morning when the city gate opened." ”
Zhen Xuan was surprised: "Out of the city? The fifth sister means that he went to the family sending team? ”
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhen Xuan himself was also startled.
Zhenqi nodded emphatically: "That's right, he went." It's like this every time, my brother, he just goes to what he wants to do, and he doesn't tell us yet. Look at it is good-tempered and kind to others, but when it comes to trouble, it is decisive to say that it sounds good, and it is not good......"
The more Zhen Qi spoke, the more angry she became, tears fell, Zhen Xuan took the handkerchief and handed it to her, and sighed secretly.
Zhenlu's temperament has always been like this.
He has a really good temper, not to mention his brothers and sisters, and he is also kind to his subordinates, no matter how you look at it, he is a gentle person, but once he has an idea, even ten horses can't pull it back.
That year, he decided to practice martial arts with the Fu brothers, but he didn't say a word to anyone, so he insisted on practicing, and even asked Zhenqi to find the black green on his arm without telling the truth;
made up his mind to join the army, but he did not discuss with his family for a long time, and he still did not change his mind after kneeling in the ancestral hall all night.
Although the boy is determined to be in all directions, fighting for the country to show his heroic journey, it is the glory of Zhenlu and the glory of the Pei family, but for his relatives, hundreds of days and nights have passed with fear.
It is obviously such a gentle and easy-to-talk law, once you recognize something, you will do it according to it.
He was bent on rushing to meet with the family sending team, and he wanted to leave the city as soon as the city gate opened, so naturally he didn't have time to say a word to Cao and Zhenqi, who had not yet gotten up, and he didn't know Cao's physical condition.
But I didn't expect that some of Cao's unhappiness a few days ago broke out and fell ill.
Zhen Xuan comforted Zhen Qi and said: "Sixth brother is in such a hurry, about Fu Fourth Master and they are not far from the capital now, and they should be able to arrive in a few days." You have to be angry with him and blame him, it's not too late to wait for him to come back, it's still important to take care of the fifth aunt at this time. ”
Zhenqi wiped a handful of tears: "I understand the reason, I came to find the seventh sister, just to tell you, when the team enters Beijing, will you accompany me?" I'm going to drag my brother's horse back to the Shilang's Mansion in the crowd. ”
was obviously a little depressed, and after listening to Zhenqi's words, the corners of his lips bent somehow.
Zhen Xuan smiled bitterly and shook her head: "I want to ask the second master first." What about you, can the fifth aunt tell you to go to the street to see? ”
Zhenqi pursed her lips and said, "It's just that my mother didn't agree to me to tell you, and it may be better to say something with you by my side." I don't expect the eldest sister, and the fourth sister is really inconvenient, so I can only rely on the seventh sister. ”
Zhen Xuan lightly nodded Zhen Qi's forehead, crying and laughing: "In the end, they are two brothers and sisters." ”
Zhenqi complained that Zhenlu insisted on going his own way, and Zhenqi herself also recognized the character of not looking back, and deserved to be a mother's compatriot.
"Didn't the fifth sister say before that the sixth brother actually didn't like the Jingwei Command Division very much? If you want to talk to me, let's pray for less war, otherwise, with the temper of the sixth brother, he will definitely ask Ying to go to the battlefield, and he will be able to stop him when the time comes? ”
Zhen Xuan's words made Zhen Qi laugh, and after laughing, she put away her tears and sighed: "You really are right, if it is really at that time, my brother will definitely do that." ”
"If you're worried about the sixth brother, aren't you worried about Fourth Master Fu?" Zhen Xuan teased.
"I'm really annoyed with my brother, you are still so ......" Zhen Qi's face turned red, glanced at Zhen Xuan, and thought of Fu Siye, who had been gone for a long time, her eyes darkened, and her mouth said hard, "He has good body and bones, and he has the imperial doctor with him, he should be fine, and my brother loves to worry about it." ”
Zhen Xuan.
Zhen Xuan asked Tao Aya to come in and clean Zhen Qi's face, and sat down for a while, and Zhen Qi went back to take care of the Cao family first.
Zhen Xuan waited for Xia Yiqing to come back, and asked a little about the welcoming team.
Xia Yiqing had heard a little about this, and according to the itinerary, it was indeed due to arrive in the next few days, but it was delayed.
"I heard that I fell ill once a year ago, but I suddenly got cold a while ago, and then I got sick again." Xia Yiqing said as she flipped through the book on her desk.
Zhen Xuan thought about the weather after March, where it was like spring, it was colder than in winter, and the budding apricot blossoms in the garden suddenly stopped moving, about this is the north, which is completely different from Yongzhou in the south.
A little further north, I'm afraid it can be cold.
Fu Siye and the others came all the way from the north, and they were tired by the sudden cold weather, and it was not uncommon for them to be sick.
Xia Yiqing glanced up at Zhen Xuan, and saw that she looked contemplative, obviously a little worried, he said: "If you want to accompany the fifth aunt, go there, bring a few more people with the car, there will be many people on the street at that time, don't have an accident." ”
Hearing this, Zhen Xuan raised her eyes to look at Xia Yiqing, her eyes met, and the gentleness in his eyes made her feel relieved, and nodded with a smile: "Okay." ”
Xia Yiqing looked at the account book seriously, and Zhen Xuan didn't bother anymore, and sat on the couch and embroidered the sachet.
The green bamboo pattern was only depicted a few days ago, and the color was embroidered on the thin water green cloth, and the embryo was added with spices, and it could be used during the Dragon Boat Festival.
After another five days, the news came that the team to send off relatives was stationed ten miles away from the capital, and it would be able to enter Beijing tomorrow.
Zhen Qi also received the news there, so that the mother-in-law came to make a decision with Zhen Xuan again. Zhen Xuan asked Cao's body, and asked her mother-in-law and Zhen Qidao to definitely go as promised.
The team will enter Beijing at noon.
Xia Yiqing dialed a few big men from the shop to accompany the car, Zhen Xuan went to the Shilang Mansion first, and took Zhen Qi to North Street.
On the road, more and more people came to see the procession return to Beijing, and asked the Beijing guards to stand on both sides of North Street.
Zhen Xuan and Zhen Qi's carriage was parked in an alley not far from the Xuanwu Gate, and they could see the marching procession from the car. Zhen Qi's face was tense, and the nervousness was obviously obvious, obviously she had been waiting for today, and when Fu Siye returned to the capital, she was also waiting to take Zhen Lu back directly, but as soon as she arrived at the level, Zhen Qi found that those worries and anger surged up and pressed on her chest.
Nefit, serious, and a long guard of honor entered from the Xuanwu Gate and headed all the way to the palace.
Everyone was looking at the guard of honor, and they didn't look at the car here, so Zhenqi didn't care so much, opened the curtain without wearing a hat, and stared wide-eyed.
There are Jingwei to stop it, and the crowd is also orderly, but it is not pointing, so it is not lively.
Until most of the team was over, I didn't see Zhenlu and Fu Siye.
Zhenqi furrowed her brows.
Zhen Xuan was puzzled and muttered, "Could it be that you are behind the most?" ”
Zhenqi couldn't wait, and felt that she might miss it in the car, so she simply jumped out of the car and ran towards the crowd.
Zhen Xuan startled her, knowing that she couldn't hold Zhen Qi, and was afraid that she would have some accidents, so she hurriedly said to Gao's mother who was accompanying her: "Go and see the fifth sister." ”
Gao's mother grabbed Zhenqi's hat and quickly followed. (To be continued......)
