Chapter 631: Xiu'er chooses a sister-in-law

Cining Palace.

Before Zhou Heng entered the door, he heard laughter from the hall, Zhou Heng glanced at Mama Cui beside him, and Mama Cui also covered her lips and laughed.

"Uncle Zhou doesn't know, the prince and the county lord came early, oh yes, there is also Miss Su Wu from General Su's mansion, she also came with the county lord, and the two also brought food to the queen mother, and the barbecue in the courtyard at noon, the queen mother was very happy."

Zhou Heng raised his eyebrows, Su Xiaoxiao could follow Zhu Yunmo back and forth, and it seemed that he didn't hate this person so much, otherwise he would have avoided it as soon as possible, and he would have come to Cining Palace together.

The Queen Mother has long had the intention of matching them, and neither of them is a fool, is it that they don't reject this idea now?

Thinking in his mind, he didn't slow down under his feet, at this time, he had already entered the room with Mama Cui, someone had already gone in to report, Zhou Heng picked up the curtain and entered, and hurriedly put down the burden to greet the Queen Mother.

"The Queen Mother Wan'an!"

The Queen Mother's eyes narrowed with laughter at this time, and she quickly patted her legs and said:

"Still stunned, help Uncle Zhongyuan up, and come to the mourning house soon, a few of you seem to have discussed, either none of you come, or you all come together."

Zhou Heng hurriedly walked closer, Cui Mama sent someone to move over Jindun and sit down, and Zhu Yunmo pouted.

"Grandmother Huang, is this disgusting that we are diligent?"

The Queen Mother smiled and poked her finger at Zhu Yunmo's forehead, "You are a, just count your words, I really can't say anything about you, the mourning family should find someone to punish you earlier, so that you are so skinny every day!" ”

Su Xiaoxiao subconsciously shrank back, Zhu Yunmo grabbed her hair, and she didn't care.

"The imperial grandmother really has to worry about it, let's hurry up and give Xiu'er's brother Zhang Luo a family affair, this Lord Liu is not small, the children of the same age can already memorize the four books and the five classics, he is busy planting all day long, and there are a lot of things in Tongzhou, if it is delayed, won't it be a generation later than others?"

The Queen Mother looked shocked and looked at Liu Xiu'er, she hadn't asked in detail before, but she had heard them say that Liu Xiu'er's brother was afraid that marrying a daughter-in-law would not be good for her own sister, so she didn't marry a wife for a long time, and the specific situation really didn't know.

"Xiu'er, tell the mourning family how old your brother is, the mourning family really didn't ask in detail before."

Liu Xiu'er hurriedly bowed slightly, the Queen Mother asked about this, she was still worried, after all, the brother's personality is wooden, and he is a person who does not know how to be gentle, if the Queen Mother gives marriage, it must be a famous lady, I don't know if I can stand his temper.

"Back to the Queen Mother's words, my brother is the year of establishment this year, all because of Xiu'er's illness that year, there were still many people in Qingping County who came to ask for marriage, and were sternly rejected by the brother several times, and gradually the matchmaker stopped coming to the door, but he was not worried."

The Queen Mother waved her hand at Mama Cui, "What are you doing in a daze, hurry up and help this girl up, when it comes to your sadness, it is your blessing to meet such a brother."

There is no delay in the marriage of Zhang Luo, and the emperor is not paying attention, rest assured that there is a mourning family to call the shots for you, Yuzhu hurried to bring the picture scroll of the previous ladies of the various mansions! ”

Zhou Heng: "......"

Zhu Yunmo: "......"

Su Xiaoxiao: "......"

Liu Xiu'er: "...... This...... I'm afraid it's not good, I think ......"

As soon as the Queen Mother raised her hand, her face was full of excitement, and she was a little eager to try, and quickly stopped Xiu'er's remaining words.

"Girl, don't worry, let's take a look first, these women from various courtiers' families know what to do."

As soon as the words fell, Mama Cui had already brought someone to hold over and count the stacks of scrolls, a total of four palace maids, and one person hugged more than a dozen, Zhou Heng was dumbfounded, it seems that the Queen Mother is addicted to being a matchmaker!

Even if these portraits were collected, it probably took a lot of time.

These palace maids put down the scroll, and each of the four of them picked it up and unfolded it, and the picture scroll was full of beauties, of course, the beauties of Gongbi seemed to be the same, which Zhou Heng did not dare to compliment.

The Queen Mother introduced it like a few treasures.

"The first two are the third and fourth children of the Ministry of Rites, with a gentle and generous personality, soft appearance, and knowledgeable knowledge, and the latter one is ......"

The Queen Mother introduced more than a dozen in one breath, and the beautiful words are not the same, I don't know how many times I have said them.

Several young people were dazzled when they heard it, and Zhu Yunmo blinked and secretly wiped a handful of sweat.

It seems that the imperial grandmother still has reservations about herself, looking at this posture, if she really uses it on herself, it is estimated that she will not see his shadow for a year and a half.

The more I thought about it, the more I was secretly glad in my heart, poked and looked at the lively Zhou Heng, lowered my voice and whispered:

"With Liu Renli's stinky temper, can he look down on such a young lady from a family?"

Zhou Heng glanced at Xiu'er, shook his head slightly and said:

"Brother......

Zhu Yunmo raised his hand and glanced at him, quickly stopped the rest of his words, and said seriously with a blank look.

"What brother, you have nothing to do with the Liu family now, Xiu'er is the county lord, although he has not changed his surname, he is also a royal person, what are you climbing?"

Zhou Heng smacked his lips, he didn't compare himself with him, but now he really doesn't know what to call it, it's a bit too angry to call Lord Liu, if he calls Liu Renli, it's a bit unspeakable, and naming him by name really doesn't sound like that.

Zhu Yunmo poked him, and Zhou Heng leaned over a little.

"I just watched it, these girls are all about the same age as Xiu'er, and some are even a few years younger than Xiu'er, and a few of them are just in their prime, but the age difference is a bit big!

In addition, Liu Renli is busy planting every day, he has been as dark as a farmer for half a year, and I am afraid that no one will believe that he is only thirty. ”

Zhou Heng nodded, the cow didn't drink water and pressed his head strongly, this matter is still hanging, Liu Renli's thoughts are actually a little similar to his own in the emergency department, and he was too lazy to find a suitable one, so he gradually delayed.

At such a time, I really don't want to find a teenager younger.,Of course, if someone says that I just like Lori style.,This can't be measured.。

However, getting married and living is not about finding a mother to go home to serve, let alone finding a daughter who needs extracurricular tutoring and worrying about her growing up and making friends, which is tiring!

But this is ancient times, and Zhou Heng can't stand up and say to the Queen Mother now, or Liu Renli wants to fall in love freely, find who is in the picture, and make his own decisions, if he really says so today, it is estimated that the Queen Mother will faint, isn't this a favorite career to deprive the old lady?

After introducing so much, the Queen Mother obviously said that she was tired, but her interest did not decrease at all, so she asked Mama Cui to speak in place of her, while she sat on the side drinking tea and kept replenishing.

After half an hour, the introduction was finally completed, and Liu Xiuer and Su Xiaoxiao listened quite seriously.

One really wants to find a sister-in-law, and the other wants to help, but after comparison, either the family background is too high, or the age is not appropriate.

Liu Xiu'er showed embarrassment on her face, she hadn't been so worried before today, but after listening to the Queen Mother's remarks, she couldn't help but feel that this was too reasonable, my brother just didn't meet the right person, if this matter is delayed any longer, after this year, it will be a girl who can't find a good family at noon.

The Queen Mother seemed to have accomplished something big at this time, and she was very comfortable, looking at Zhou Heng and saying with a smile:

"Why don't you help Xiu'er with the staff officer, if you think which one is suitable, the mourning family will come forward, rest assured that no one outside knows about this matter, this is what the mourning family and you said behind closed doors."

Xiu'er looked at Zhou Heng, obviously she was now blindfolded, so that the Queen Mother was so thoughtful, and she couldn't wait to find a sister-in-law in the next second.

Zhou Heng coughed, glanced at Xiu'er, and then looked at the Queen Mother.

"Actually, I think it's ...... Mr. Liu knows in his heart that Tongzhou has been going for eight months, and the changes in Tongzhou have surprised the locals, whether it is spring flooding or planting, the three words Liu Renli in Tongzhou have become a household name.

The Queen Mother's idea is well-intentioned, but I think Lord Liu is not confined to the saying that the children of the family need to marry, he is a poor student, this is His Majesty's opportunity to repay students from all over the world, and the people will definitely find a virtuous and ordinary woman to be more likely.

But this is all our speculation, Lord Liu's marriage, I think we still have to tell him, if it is settled here, but he has already started to handle the marriage there, whether it is the young lady of the family or the situation over there, it seems that it is not easy to explain, and it will only increase the laughing stock. ”

The Queen Mother gradually put away her smile, not angry, but looked at Zhou Heng seriously, and looked at Liu Xiu'er thoughtfully, Xiu'er got up and hurriedly saluted the Queen Mother, and then said:

"What Uncle Zhongyuan said is indeed the truth, my brother is honest and sincere, but he is also easy to get into the horns, no one can stop what he wants to do, just like the spring flood in Tongzhou, and the planting of new crops, he is in the field, and he can't pull him back if he wants to."

The Queen Mother raised her eyebrows, as if it was the first time such an official heard it, and there was an expression of disbelief on her face.

But looking at the four people in front of her, no one was surprised, and they all nodded at her, obviously Liu Xiu'er still had reservations about what she said, this person is not ordinary persistence.

After thinking about it, the Queen Mother picked up the teacup, if this is the case, it is really easy to do this inside and out.

"If that's the case, it's better to ask, don't mourn the family's side, he has other plans there."

Liu Xiu'er bowed down again, the queen mother of a country, being able to do this for the courtiers is really moving, it is completely sincere for you, Xiu'er pounced directly on the queen mother's legs.

"Thank you for the Queen Mother's concern, busy with the things in front of me, I will find a time to go to Tongzhou, my brother used to serve, I have been busy with the diagnosis and treatment of patients here, I have no time to pass, just go to see how my brother is doing."

The Queen Mother smiled and hurriedly waved her hand at Mama Cui.

"Prepare something for the girl to carry."

Cui Mama smiled and went to prepare, Zhou Heng thought for a while, at this time, he couldn't continue this topic, the Queen Mother's addiction was strong, if she continued, she might not be able to do something.

Thinking of this, she coughed, several people looked at Zhou Heng tacitly, and the Queen Mother tilted her head and put down the teacup.

"Don't pretend to cough there, just say it if you have anything to say, this is Cining Palace, not the imperial study, it can be no big or small, tell the truth about everything, and the mourning family will make decisions for you!"

Zhou Heng couldn't hold back, he sneered and laughed, not to mention that the Queen Mother may be in love with the house and Wu, she loves Zhu Yunmo and Xiu'er, so she naturally looks at herself differently, and this tolerance is still very moving.

"Queen Mother Mingjian, Zhou Heng came later than the prince, not because the minister was sleepy, the minister brought a little something, it will take some time to prepare."

The Queen Mother looked at Zhou Heng up and down, it seemed that he was holding a bag when he came in, and he didn't see where to put it at this time, just now he only paid attention to introducing the daughter of the family, not to mention that he really ignored this, especially thinking of the flower glasses, the Queen Mother was interested.

"Don't sell it, hurry up and get something for the mourning family?"

Zhou Heng got up, picked up the burden behind him, put it on the table in front of several people and opened it, many things in it were exposed, most of them were carved from wood, they looked strange, and they didn't know what they were for.

The Queen Mother's heart was suddenly aroused, she reached out and grabbed a long wooden ball like a hedgehog, held the glasses with one hand, and raised the other hand to observe carefully for a long time.

"What is this?"

"This is the wooden hammer for massage, the last time I came to the palace, I saw the Queen Mother holding one, but it was the shape of a pure hammer, it hurt a little on the body, and the force area was still a large piece.

I went back and thought about it, it is better to replace the hammer head with such a thick small wooden stick according to the theory of acupuncture, and the force area on the body is three times the original, and it is easier to stimulate the corresponding acupuncture points, which is more gentle and comfortable. ”

Cui Mama was by her side, and the Queen Mother handed the wooden hammer to Cui Mama, pointed to her shoulder and said:

"Just try the shoulder, it's uncomfortable everywhere when you're old, and it doesn't hurt much, anyway, the neck and shoulders feel tight and tight, and it hurts when you move a little, your newly trained medical massage technique is good, but you can't massage it all the time every day."

Zhou Heng nodded, this is a real problem, sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night, and I can only endure the discomfort by myself.

Cui Mama held the wooden hammer, raised her hand and pinched the small wooden stick on the head of the hammer, because the head in front was red, and I don't know what it was.

Tried to lift it up and hammer the Queen Mother's shoulder twice, the sound was not small, Cui Mama was stunned, and hurried to the front to look at the Queen Mother.

"Is the slave and maid heavy?"

The Queen Mother waved her hand, "With a little strength, I heard the sound loudly, and there was no strength at all." ”

Cui Mama began to exert herself at this time, and with the continuous beating, the Queen Mother had already squinted comfortably, Cui Mama stopped at this point, and the Queen Mother opened her eyes dissatisfied.

"Why did it stop?"

Mama Cui covered her lips and laughed, "The slave is afraid that if she knocks for a while, the mother will fall asleep!" ”

Sure enough, the Queen Mother laughed, "That's right, but this thing is too comfortable, it doesn't feel pain when it hits the body, it's very comfortable anyway, what's the red in front of this?" ”

Zhou Heng hurriedly stepped forward, "If it's just wood, it's still a little painful to hit hard, I tried to dip the small wooden stick in front with latex, so that the comfort is higher, I also made wooden hammers of different shapes, which can knock legs, and there are several kinds of ones with bent necks and beating the back by yourself!" ”

The Queen Mother looked inside the baggage, and sure enough, there were different styles, but a thing with rows of rollers that looked like an abacus attracted the Queen Mother's attention.

"What is this?"

Zhou Heng hurriedly picked up the thing, put it on the footrest in front of the Queen Mother, and put his hands on it to demonstrate.

"This is to massage the feet, when you can take a bath, put this massage pedal in the bath bucket, while soaking in the bath while stepping on the massage of the feet, what diseases are not necessarily treated, but relaxing the body, sleep aid is still more effective, at least much better than incense."

Zhu Yunmo hurried up and made a gesture to take off his shoes.

"Imperial grandmother, don't worry, Sun Chen will help you try to see if it is comfortable first!"

When the Queen Mother saw it, she hurriedly pushed Zhu Yunmo away.

"Stinky boy, go away!"
