Chapter 188: Meeting in the Downtown Area
In a moment, a servant trotted out, smiling, and said, "Thanks, Amu." ”
"Little things, what to thank." Amu smiled and said, "If it's okay, I'll go back to the kitchen and light the fire." ”
"Okay, I'll have you a drink next time." Ah Liang said gratefully: "Alas, Madame is back, the house is busy, cleaning, tidying up, and there is a shortage of manpower, it just so happens that I have a stomach upset, so I have to ask you for help." ”
Amu swayed, turned around to return to the kitchen, suddenly turned around, and said a little strangely: "Ah Liang, ask you something." ”
"What's missing?" Knowing that his brain is not good and he often loses everything, Ah Liang said enthusiastically: "Just ask, I will help you find it later." ”
"Should... Didn't lose anything. Amu hesitated and asked slowly: "I just want to ask you, there is a son named Han Rui......
"What, he's here?" Ah Liang smiled: "Didn't I tell you, he is the husband of the mother's future, the husband of the Zheng family, remember to be respectful when you see him." ”
"Oh." Amu responded, walked towards the courtyard, and muttered: "Han Rui Langzi, Langzi...... Who? ”
"I must have forgotten again." Ah Liang shook his head helplessly and continued to guard the gate dutifully.
At the same time, in the backyard of the Zheng family, in the gorgeous and exquisite attic, a beautiful woman with an elegant temperament was holding Zheng Nao's slender hand and talking freely, telling about the worries that she had not seen for more than a month.
Naturally, this beautiful woman is Zheng Renji's wife Cui Shi, although she is middle-aged, but she has a way to maintain her health and appearance, and her demeanor has not diminished, and the gorgeous embroidered Luo clothes are worn on her body, which does not look glamorous and vulgar, but sets off a little more graceful and luxurious, and her smile is full of love, and she said kindly: "Some of the children are gone, and the complexion of the covenant is ......."
After looking at it carefully for a moment, Cui Shi breathed a sigh of relief and said happily: "The complexion is ruddy, and the eyes are bright, but they are getting better and better." ”
"My daughter is at home, and she has nothing to do, how can it be bad." Zheng Naoyue said softly: "It's A-Niang, who is tired of traveling outside, but her appearance has decreased a lot. ”
"That's exactly what Joel said." Zheng Renji echoed: "Madame does need to recuperate for a few days, drink a few bowls of ginseng soup to nourish her vitality. ”
"It's really a little tired, it's better to go out than at home, tossing and turning at night, and it's hard to sleep." Cui Shi smiled: "Now that I'm back, go to bed with my pillow high, rest for the night, and it will be natural to say that tomorrow." ”
Ordered to go down and send the medicinal soup that made people boil bowls to nourish their minds, Zheng Nao continued before he continued: "Uncle, they are good. ”
"Very energetic, I added a cousin to you, can it be good?" Cui Shi smiled: "But I'm always complaining, for several years, you, Weidao, and Weide don't go to see them." ”
"Later, my daughter came to the door and apologized to her uncles." Zheng Nao said ashamedly.
"There's no need." Cui Shi smiled: "For several years, we have always been asked to visit them, but I don't see them come to visit, but they are the ones who are at fault." ”
Zheng Renji was pleased and agreed: "Mrs. is high-minded, courtesy is still exchanged, and the principle of nature is also." ”
"They are at a loss for words and obediently admit their mistakes." Cui Shi smiled helplessly: "Decided, after a while, I will come to the capital, alas, I miss it when I don't see it, they are really here, and they feel annoyed, and they will definitely make Zheng Fu restless." ”
Several wives and brothers are indeed calm and serious, but thinking of the behavior of those wives and brothers, Zheng Renji also felt a headache, Zheng Naoyu pursed his lips and smiled: "Uncles, how can they be so unbearable as A-Niang said." ”
"Why not, your nineteenth uncle is also here." Cui Shi frowned and said: "When I entered Chang'an City, I said that I was going to visit my friends, and I ran away without saying where I was going, and I have not been seen until now." ”
"Cui Bai has been in Chang'an City for a few years and has made a lot of friends." Zheng Renji said with a smile: "I haven't seen him for many years, and it is indispensable to have a party and a banquet, even if you don't return for the night, you don't have to worry about him." ”
"What kind of friends, it's nothing more than some dumb kids, messing with them, sooner or later they will be ruined." Cui Shi shook his head and said, his expression was quite dissatisfied, Zheng Renji smiled, did not argue, and chatted for a while, the maid brought the medicinal soup, Cui Shi took it and drank it, slowly, seemed to be a little tired.
The effect of the medicine worked, Zheng Nao got up, helped Cui Shi back to the couch and lay down, covered with silk, and obediently retreated.
After sorting out the next table, Zheng Renji was also ready to go out, not disturbing Cui's rest, and when he walked to the door, her voice came from behind him: "Husband, wait." ”
Zheng Renji turned around, walked to the couch, sat cross-legged, and asked in a harmonious voice, "Madam, what's the matter?" ”
"On my way home, I received your letter." Cui Shi opened his eyes, frowned and asked, "That Han Rui, what's the matter?" ”
"It's my husband who made the appointment." Zheng Renji said with a smile: "Whether it is talent and appearance, you can match with Yo'er, I came to visit just now, but considering that you have just come back, it is not appropriate to see him immediately, so let him go back first and come back next time." ”
"Why don't you wait for me to come back and make a hasty decision." Cui's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and he complained: "It's not that I don't believe in my husband, it's just that over the years, we have also seen a lot of so-called young talents, most of whom have ulterior motives, and I really can't rest assured." ”
"Han Rui is different." Zheng Renji hurriedly said: "I have already tried it, and I gave him a generous gift of a mansion, but I was unmoved......
"Don't be moved by petty profits, maybe the plot is bigger." Cui Shi worried: "After all, there is no shortage of far-sighted people in the world. ”
"Madame, you're overthinking." Zheng Renji couldn't cry or laugh, but he didn't know how to explain, after all, he was preconceived and had a prejudice in his heart, which could not be easily resolved, so he thought about it and simply said: "You rest, after two days, I will call him over and let you pass the test, and it will definitely satisfy you." ”
"What if you're not satisfied?" Cui Shi said softly, with an inaudible sigh, complaining in his heart that Zheng Renji was in a hurry.
"Not satisfied." Zheng Renji was slightly stunned, and suddenly smiled: "Han Rui is a rare talent, how can Madam not be satisfied." ”
"That's what my husband thinks." Cui Shi said lightly: "The concubine may have a different opinion. ”
Zheng Renji was silent, and after a while, he said in a low voice: "It's not just me, Nao Yue also thinks so, you also noticed it, these days, her situation is getting better and better, I don't say the reason, you also understand." ”
After a long time, Cui Shi closed his eyes lightly and muttered, "She, she laughed just now." ”
"yes." Zheng Renji said softly: "Count, how many years, finally see Naoyo's smile again." ”
After a moment of silence, Cui Shi said: After three days, I want to see him. ”
Zheng Renji smiled and said in a harmonious voice: "Madame, don't worry, I believe he will not disappoint you." ”
"I hope so." Cui Shi sighed lightly: "Otherwise, ......"
"If Madame is really dissatisfied, I have a plan." Zheng Renji's eyes flashed with a sly color, and he said with a smile: "I didn't publicize his marriage contract with Nao at all, even if it is a repentance, no matter how Han Rui accuses, as long as we don't admit it, most people will think it's just gossip and won't take it seriously." ”
Well, Cui Shi glanced at it and smiled happily.
After calming down for a while, Cui Shi closed his eyes and rested, Zheng Renji stepped back and walked out of the room, gently closed the door, breathed a sigh of relief, brushed off his sweat, and muttered to himself, Han Rui, Han Rui, at the critical moment, don't make any mistakes, if not, Hugh blames me for using the last resort, after all, the Zheng family can't damage the reputation...... When Zheng Renji was worried, Han Rui was also very depressed, wandering aimlessly around the streets and alleys of the city, where he went, going around and around, and he didn't know where he went, although he was not stupid enough to think that the Zheng family would turn his face and regret his marriage, but there must be some hidden secrets in it, which he didn't know.
What's going on? Han Rui pondered for a long time, and was puzzled, and finally decided...... "No, we have to find out again." With a pat of his leg muscles, Han Rui made a decision, and immediately turned over and got on the horse, if he had anything to say, he must spread it out and say it to figure it out, and he held it in his stomach, but he misunderstood it a lot, and spat out a sulk, Han Rui looked around, but saw that there were restaurants, there were many shops, and the streets were unusually wide, and he actually returned to Dongshi.
It's easy to confirm where you are, Han Rui hurriedly rode his horse to turn around, identified the direction, shook the rope and left, at this moment, there was a line of carriages and horses in front of him, the canopy incense car, the flag was bright yellow, guarded by more than a dozen cavalry soldiers, and came slowly, but it was a member of the royal family, seeing the color of the flag, Han Rui had already understood, and hurriedly stopped his horse, and like others, let go of the way.
The carriage and horses came slowly, the princes and nobles traveled, in Chang'an City, it is not a rare thing, Han Rui looked at it curiously, but saw that the incense cart was light and veiled, and he couldn't see through the situation inside, so he lost interest, bowed his head and waited for a group of carriages and horses to pass, and then rode forward to Zheng's house.
Hey, at this moment, the veil of the luxury incense car moved, as if someone was whispering, and the knight next to him hurriedly approached to ask, but got a reply that it was okay, and he was strange in his heart, but he didn't dare to say more, and hurriedly retreated.
A businessman said: "It's the servants of the prince of the East Palace, who came out to buy things for the wedding." ”
"So, it's the prince sitting in the car?"
"Delusional, how noble is the prince, some trivial matters, his own official cuisine, how can he come in person."
The matter of Li Chengqian's concubine has already spread all over Chang'an City, and the people are either blessed or indifferent, and their reactions are different, but no one dares to slander, and after talking for a while, a group of people have also dispersed, saving many words and mistakes, and inadvertently offending the prince, then the consequences will be serious.
Han Rui didn't have anything to worry about, where did he have time to care about the prince, when he saw the carriage and horses going, revealing the passageway, he hurriedly drove the horse forward, but there were many people in the bazaar, and the speed was naturally not fast, and it took a long time to reach the edge of the market, ready to go out from the door, but at this time, he was stopped.
"But Han Rui Gongzi?" The person who came was a handsome young man, about fourteen or fifteen years old, with a slender figure, fluttering white clothes, graceful demeanor, and his appearance was born with red lips and white teeth, clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, skin like frost and snow, white and tender with lustre, like mutton fat and jade, how can it be described by the word handsome.
Could it be a beautiful woman who is easy to hairpin, Han Rui was skeptical in his heart, and said with a smile: "It's here, may I ask this ...... Is there anything you want me to do? ”
"My son-in-law is invited." The handsome young man smiled, his demeanor was all right, and he had a kind of bewitching beauty, which made people dare not force their eyes.
