Shengjing City, Suzaku Fang.

At this time, the sky was not yet bright, but on Suzaku Street, which was all over the mansions of the powerful people of the dynasty, there was a family that had opened the door of the mansion and was welcoming the guests into the house.

I saw that the girl who was surrounded by a group of people like stars and moons in the center, although she was petite, but she was extremely bright and dazzling when she was lined with a red dress.

At this moment, Mrs. Du, the head of the Zhongxing Bo Mansion, looked at the young girl in front of her, and her eyebrows and eyes were extremely immature, and she couldn't help but jump slightly from the corners of her eyes, but the smile on her face became thicker and thicker.

The girl looked at the woman who ushered in her, and was reminded by the maid beside her to know who it was, and after a little thought, she bowed slightly.

"The eldest lady is fine, she hurried through the house without handing over the post, and I ask for your forgiveness and abruptness."

Mu Yuheng, the lord of Hewan County, is the daughter of Prince Ke's mansion.

After Prince Ke's father and son died in battle, Princess Ke suffered the pain of losing her husband and son one after another, and her grief was unbearable, and she went with her not long after.

Concubine Jing's white-haired man sent the black-haired man, and she took care of this little granddaughter after five years of taking care of her already corrupted body.

Later, it was Prince Jing who asked for the order to bring the only daughter of King Ke's Mansion into King Jing's Mansion to raise him personally.

Prince Ke's mansion came out, and he was pampered by Prince Jing's mansion.

Her Majesty is now her own uncle, and the eldest princess Rong Chen, Prince Jiuzhang, and the lord of Chang'an County are her aunts.

Yes, although the county lord has lost both parents and her parents are weak, but in this Shengjing City, no one dares to despise her for half a point.

For example, after Mrs. Du saw the girl's movements at this time, she hurriedly turned sideways to avoid being polite.

Wu stepped forward quickly and quickly helped up the delicate girl in front of him.

"The county lord said this, it really tormented me, I just heard that the county lord came to the house, I was really surprised, it is strange to say that yesterday the magpie birds under the eaves kept making noise all day, it was to remind me that there are distinguished guests coming to the door today."

There was a smile that couldn't be concealed between the words, and it sounded extremely joyful.

This Mrs. Du is a well-known kind person in this Shengjing City.

Because He Wan was born in the palace and has been in and out of the deep palace since she was a child, she naturally knows that the rumors are not credible, and she doesn't take this kind person as a thing.

But she looked at this lady of the Du family with her own eyes at this time, her words were hearty, and because she was born with a round face, she felt charitable and cute when she saw it.

It's very intimate, and the county lord of Hewan thought so secretly, so he also helped her with the situation, and habitually twisted out a little smile.

"The eldest lady is very kind, and she is rude in front, thank you for not blaming, but I don't know when it is appropriate to visit Mrs. Tai?"

My aunt said that when walking outside, words are polite and courteous to each other, and they are decent, and she has always kept them in mind.

Although she doesn't often go out of the house, but in the end, she lives here often, and she has been exposed to the most complicated power field in this empire since she was a child, because she also knows some rules.

If a female family enters someone else's mansion, they will naturally go to the elders in this mansion to say hello one by one, and now there is only one old lady who is the most honorable elder in the Zhongxing Bo Mansion.

Loyal to the uncle's biological mother, the old lady of the uncle's mansion Li's.

The old lady of Zhongxing Bofu is the only daughter of the old Wuchang Marquis, although she was born in Jiangmen, but she was also pampered by the old Wuchang Marquis and Mrs. Hou since she was a child.

When she reached her age, the Hou Mansion married her to the son of Zhongxing Bo at that time.

Because the title of Marquis of Wuchang was obtained by his father's military exploits, although the title is higher than that of Bofu, it only enjoys three generations of hereditary inheritance.

Compared with the earl mansion that has been inherited from generation to generation since the time of Emperor Xi, it is naturally still less family.

More importantly, the Hou Mansion has no children, because the foundation of the Hou Mansion is insufficient, and it is called to marry, but in fact, in the eyes of the Du family, a century-old family, it is really high.

After getting married, the husband and wife of Bofu lived in harmony after marriage.

After the death of Uncle Lao Zhongxing, the prince became the uncle, and the Li family became the head of the house.

Later, it was her son who took the title, and she personally facilitated a beautiful marriage.

At this point, her son married a virtuous wife, and her daughter married into the powerful Jiuzhang Palace.

Now it has become the only "old lady" in this house, and the descendants of the Li family are around their knees, enjoying the joy of family, and there is nothing unpleasant.

If it is said that there is a smooth and happy life in this Shengjing City, I am afraid that no one will forget to mention this old lady of the Bofu.

I'm afraid that except for herself, no one can understand her grief of losing her husband in middle age and losing her daughter in old age.

After all, in the eyes of the world, her daughter has already married, and the surname is Mu of the Jiuzhang Palace.

"When is it good, our old lady has always gotten up early, if her old man knew that the county lord was here today, she might be so happy."

Mrs. Du's face became more and more kind, and while talking to the girl, she stepped forward and pulled the girl with her hands.

He Wan subconsciously wanted to withdraw her hand, but when she thought of the identity of the person in front of her who was different from others and the purpose of coming to this Zhongxing Bofu today, she couldn't bear it anymore.

She followed the lady in front of her all the way to the backyard,

The two talked and laughed all the way to the front of the old lady's courtyard, but saw that there was no one waiting in front of the door, Mrs. Du called the lady in the courtyard to ask, only to know that the old lady had already left the house.

After asking, Mrs. Du also let go of the hand that held the county lord of Hewan along the way.

Wu asked a few more questions carefully, but the mother-in-law didn't know anything, Wu's face sank slightly, and he hurriedly sent the housekeeper around him to inquire about the people who were waiting everywhere.

Mrs. Du has been married to Bofu for more than ten years, and her mother-in-law has never spoken seriously to her, because she was born in Jiangmen, she speaks and acts very well, and she never asks her to make rules like other powerful people.

The extremely complicated relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in the eyes and mouths of others has never been troublesome to her.

When she returned to her parents' house, her sisters sat together and talked about her in-laws' house, and none of them did not envy her.

is his biological mother, and he always says that he has only met such a good mother-in-law in his previous life.

It was Mrs. Du who reciprocated the peach, and she was also extremely respectful in serving her mother-in-law.

But now that the sky is still bright, who can tell her where her mother-in-law, who has never even loved the small door of her own yard, has gone?

She has never slackened off in the matter of being in charge of the house, but so far no one has come to report that the old lady has left the house, and the mother-in-law has said that the mother-in-law has left the house.

The more Mrs. Du Wu thought about it now, the more panicked she became, and she didn't care that there were others on her side, and she didn't dare to move the people in the old lady's courtyard, so she simply asked someone to tie up the porter and ask.

While waiting, the county lord of Hewan, who had been silent for a long time, couldn't help but speak when he saw Wu's increasingly ugly face.

"When I went out, Uncle Wang was not at ease, and he sent a lot of guards to accompany him, if the eldest lady thinks carefully about where the old lady will go, I will ask the guards of the palace to look everywhere first, and you will interrogate the next person in the mansion."

Listening to the words of the girl in front of him, Wu couldn't help but show gratitude, the guards of the palace were always more alert and reliable than the little servants in the Biber Mansion.

Moreover, the palace guards are in this capital, and idlers do not dare to offend, and it is more convenient to find someone, Wu Shi thought of this and bowed down, "The county lord is very gracious, it is really ......"

As she spoke, she was crying, obviously scared, and she didn't wait for her to finish, so she said.

"Madame doesn't need to be polite, I don't know where the old lady usually goes, so I'll send someone to find it."

"Mother is only in the courtyard on weekdays, and she doesn't like to go out, but in recent years, except for summons from the palace, or going to Gusu Temple outside the city to add incense, or occasionally going to other ladies' banquets, she has never been anywhere else."

Wu couldn't tell where his mother-in-law could go.

I was thinking of asking the little maid to wake up her husband and son to find someone to get an idea.

But when she heard that Mama Zhao, the steward who had just been sent out to investigate, trotted forward, kept panting roughly, and knelt down and said.

"Madame, don't worry, the old lady took someone to the palace early in the morning, and told the porter on duty to let him pass the word to you as soon as it dawns, because the fifth lady said yesterday that she wanted to eat Suyunzhai's sweets, and the porter is fast in our house, early this morning, the maid in the fifth miss's room let the porter change the value and then went to buy a sweet mouth for the fifth lady, saying that the maid was in a hurry, and I forgot to come and send you a message."

Wang fu? He Wan thought about it in her heart for a while, and it became clear.

The deceased Princess Jiuzhang is the only daughter of the old lady, and now that the little aunt is back, the old lady should have gone to the Jiuzhang palace to find the little aunt.

Wu naturally thought of it, she heard that the old lady went to the palace, and her heart that had been hanging was also put down by most of it.

But when she thought of the old lady leaving the house with someone, she didn't know it now, and she couldn't help but be angry for a while, and said sharply, "Forgot? Is this something that can be forgotten? ”

Wu pressed his heart and said smoothly, "I've tied them all up, and the ones in the five girls' rooms have also been tied up and taken to the flower hall." ”

The big and small ones in this Fangyi Courtyard are all here to block her!

After a series of orders, she turned to the distinguished guest in front of her and said, "I told the county lord to see the joke, I really ......."

It was hard to hide her shame when she said that, she was ready to entertain the guests, but it turned out that people saw her incompetence, and she was angry and depressed for a while.

Seeing this, He Wan also knew that it was inconvenient for her to be here, so she simply took advantage of the situation and spoke bluntly.

"Madame deals with family affairs, and Wanyuan shouldn't continue to disturb your mansion here, it's just that the wedge peach of Zhongxingbo's Mansion is famous in the capital, and I heard that the best is newly picked when spring dawns, so I took the liberty to come to the mansion and want to find some to honor the elders in the family, please forgive me."

Elders in the family? The elders of the county lord's family? The elders of the royal daughters are nothing more than people in the palace and in the palace.

Not to mention that this county lord has been extremely polite all the way, not bullying others, nor relying on his identity to oppress people, and he does not have the attitude of other nobles in Beijing to be arrogant.

This Mrs. Du, Wu has always been a straightforward person, and she rarely bends in her heart.

At this time, she only thought about the wedge peach tree in the backyard, no matter how carefully the gardener raised it, there were not many fruits all year round, and she was afraid that the fate would not bear a good one, so she would have a grudge.

The plain Wu family has done some favors because of this wedge peach, I don't know if it is rare or expensive, one pass two two pass hundreds, the wedge peach in this Bofu is famous in this Shengjing City.
