Chapter 258: Old Lady

Ruan Chuxiao's face stiffened a little, and he turned his head to look at Ping Guogong: "Dad, I'll leave for Cloud City to ...... now."

Ping Guogong sneered: "You are an unfilial son, hide again." You are so old, and you still let your grandmother worry about marriage for you, it is already unfilial, and now you want to avoid it?! ”

Fang Hanniang vaguely understood that this cousin seemed to be forced to marry, but she didn't know what to say about other people's housework, so she stood aside without saying a word, very well-behaved.

Look at the troublesome rebel, and then look at the well-behaved and beautiful niece, Ping Guogong's already biased heart is even more biased.

Ruan Chuxiao saw that his father looked like he was going to drive him out of the house, and knew that no matter how much he hid, there would eventually be such a catastrophe, so he gritted his teeth and opened the door of the study.

Lu Ying smiled and saluted Ruan Chuxiao: "Third young master, the old lady has been waiting for you for a long time, and Miss An is also there to talk to the old lady." ”

Green Ying, this can be regarded as a tactful report to Ruan Chuxiao.

The expression on Ruan Chuxiao's face was even more unsightly.

The "Miss An" in Lu Ying's mouth refers to the daughter of his second aunt's mother, Huai Shuibo, who has a beautiful appearance and a lively and laughing temperament, and has always been loved by the old lady.

It stands to reason that Ruan Chuxiao is a filial grandmother, and the little girl who was liked by his grandmother often came to the house, and it could be regarded as filial piety for his grandson, who was not often at home, and he should be full of gratitude.

It's just that there is one thing, his grandmother has always been keen to connect him with that Miss An, and he looked at it coldly, and that Miss An seemed to have that meaning, which gave him a headache.

He is purely grateful to that Miss An, and he has no love between men and women!

Ruan Chuxiao had a headache.

Ping Guogong sneered: "Unfilial son, hurry up!" ”

Ruan Chuxiao subconsciously glanced back at Fang Hanniang, who was standing obediently on the side, her heart moved, and she lowered her voice and said to Ping Guo: "Dad, grandmother has been depressed for so many years because of her little aunt, and today she has found her eldest cousin, shouldn't she share this happy event with her grandmother?" ”

Ping Guogong hesitated slightly, he originally wanted to take Ruan Qingqing's other two children over and then take them to his mother to see.

What the third son has in his heart, Ping Guogong knows very well. However, when he said this, he was also a little moved, and wanted to make the old lady happy as soon as possible.

He looked at Fang Hanniang with some hesitation: "...... Han Niang, why don't you go with you? ”

Before Fang Hanniang could speak, she saw Ruan Chuxiao give her a look for help, she thought about it, things have come to this point, sooner or later, she will see each other, and now that she has seen her, she can still make Ruan Chuxiao owe her a personal favor.

Somehow, Fang Hanniang's mind came to mind the grandmother who raised her in the small mountain village, although the grandmother's temper was not very good, but on the summer night, she also shook the pu fan for her under the grape trellis, and told the story of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl with the wind of the summer night......

Fang Hanniang nodded.

Ruan Chuxiao breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.

Ping Guogong also breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

The green warbler glanced at Fang Hanniang without a trace, and was a little surprised by Fang Hanniang's beauty, and couldn't help but guess Fang Hanniang's identity a little - let the grandfather of the country treat her so carefully, and ask for her opinion......

Her heart sank.

In fact, she still didn't say it all.

Today, the news that the third young master led a beautiful girl back to the house has already reached the ears of the old lady. The old lady didn't say anything, but Miss An, who was talking and amusing the old lady on the side, had red eyes first.

The old lady couldn't bear it, on the one hand, she was also angry that the third young master was so frivolous, and she actually brought the girl directly to the house, and on the other hand, she also planned to vent her anger for Miss An, so she sent Lu Ying directly to the outer courtyard, ready to call someone from the study.

The old lady said this: "If he doesn't come, you can call a few strong men and tie him up to me!" "It's a bit of a gamble.

Lu Ying is a proper person, she naturally knows that what the old lady said is angry.

But fortunately, the words were brought, and the third young master promised to go over, and the things that the old lady explained were successfully completed.

The green warbler led the way, resisting the urge to look back at the beautiful girl a few more times.

It wasn't until the old lady's Fuyuan Hall that the green warbler stopped, and said to the other lady with some apologies: "This girl, I have to pass it on to the old lady first......"

Ping Guogong waved his hand and spoke directly: "No need, she just goes in with me and the third child." ”

The green warbler was shocked, and she was a little more cautious about this strange girl.

Ping Guogong said, holding his hands, looking at the plaque hanging on the moon gate, and said with some sadness: "Do you know why this place is called Fuyuan Hall?" ”

Fang Hanniang was slightly stunned and shook her head.

Looking at the topography here, there is neither water nor lotus, but it has the name of "Fuhui Hall...... And the elderly, for the sake of good luck, are mostly named after some blessings and longevity, and the place where the old lady of the Pingguo Mansion lives is called Fuhui Hall, and it is the first time I have heard of it.

Ping Guogong said slowly: "The little sister has always liked the lotus, every summer, must be boating on the lake to pick lotus, since she was lost, the mother of the family can not sleep at night, and then heard the news that the little sister jumped into the river, grief-stricken, the place of residence was renamed Fuhui Hall. ”

Fang Hanniang's heart trembled.

Somehow, she thought of the "Han" in her name.

The one is the lotus, also known as the hibiscus.

The expression on Fang Hanniang's face was also a little solemn.

Regardless of whether she is the original owner or not, she doesn't want to perfunctory such an old man who earnestly misses her relatives.

Seeing that Fang Hanniang was thoughtful, Ping Guogong also sighed in his heart, this niece is a grateful person, and his heart is not only biased towards his niece a little.

Ruan Chuxiao followed the green warbler in front, and didn't pay attention, after such a few breaths, his position in his father's heart had dropped again, and his father's heart was almost biased towards his cousin.

When she arrived at the hall, due to the bleak and cold autumn wind in recent days, most of the doors of the hall were hidden, and the green warbler stepped forward and knocked lightly on the door a few times, and said, "Old lady, the third young master and the grandfather of the country ......" She paused, because she really didn't know Fang Hanniang's name and surname, so she had to be vague for a while, and continued, "The third young master and the grandfather of the country have come to greet you." ”

An old woman's voice sounded very kind: "It's cold outside, come in." ”

Ruan Chuxiao glanced at Fang Hanniang and said in a low voice, "Let's go, one piece." ”

Ping Guogong walked to the front, and the green warbler opened the curtain on Ping Guogong, and the three of them entered in turn.

Fang Hanniang walked behind, the green warbler was still respectfully lifting the curtain for it, and the little maid next to her was surprised, you know, the status of the green warbler in the hibiscus hall is not much different from the deputy miss, who is this strange sister, who can let the green warbler open the curtain so respectfully?

The little maid had the courage to look up carefully, but she was so shocked by Fang Hanniang's beauty that she couldn't speak.

This also ...... It's so pretty, isn't it?

……

"Ruyi greets Pingguo Gong. Ruan's third brother An. A crisp girl's voice came, and a young girl got up from the carved tung wood chair, bent her knees slightly, and made a standard and dignified blessing salute to Ping Guogong and Ruan Chuxiao.

This kind of etiquette has always been a mutual salute between the good of the family, and An Ruyi, as the concubine of Ruan Chuxiao's second aunt's mother's family, Huai Shuibo, is indeed qualified to salute them like this.

Ping Guogong nodded lightly, and then saluted the old lady sitting at the top of the place: "Mother." ”

Ruan Chuxiao did not respond to An's wishes, and directly asked the old lady to say goodbye: "Grandmother, how are you doing?" ”

The old lady had silver hair, and her face could vaguely see a little bit of the delicate eyebrows and eyes of her youth, she was not very happy when she saw this, and patted the table gently: "Little San'er, what kind of attitude do you have, people greet you as they wish?" ”

was named by her grandmother, Ruan Chuxiao couldn't escape, so she stubbornly said to An Ruyi: "Miss An." ”

An Ruyi blushed slightly, nodded, turned around and brought a cup of tea to the old lady: "Don't be angry, the old lady, I think the third brother didn't hear it." ”

The old lady took the tea and put it aside, the expression on her face was a little better, and she patted the back of An Ruyi's hand: "It's still your most intimate, it's like this stinky boy, it's rare to go home, and you don't even come to say hello to my old wife." The old lady sighed lonely, "This is because my wife is in the way." ”

Ping Guogong's face changed, and he scolded Ruan Chuxiao with his head and face: "You rebel, kneel!" ”

Ruan Chuxiao's face remained unchanged, and she knelt down.

The knee collided with the bluestone slab, and the sound was extremely crisp, and the old lady's face changed when she heard it.

She just said a few words, who knew that her grandson didn't know how to be flexible, and he actually knelt down alive?

The old lady was distressed, and she couldn't show it on her face, so she glared at Ping Guogong fiercely.

Compared with her grandson, she is still willing to scold her son.

"What are you doing here?! What did Xiao'er do wrong, you just let him kneel? I'm just going to say a few words about him! The old lady spoke sharply.

The majestic Pingguo Gong in front of outsiders, when he arrived in front of the old lady, he only nodded.

After a period of panic, the old lady asked Ruan Chuxiao to help her up, and seeing that An Ruyi's face was only full of distress for Ruan Chuxiao, and there was no resentment, she was finally satisfied.

She seemed to think of something, coughed, and said lightly: "Xiao'er, speaking of which, there is something I want to ask you." ”

Ruan Chuxiao said respectfully: "Grandmother, please speak." ”

The old lady said "um" and said lightly: "I heard a few people chewing their tongues there today, saying that you brought a beautiful little girl back to the house in the morning?" Why are you so ridiculous?! ”

As soon as he said this, An Ruyi's face turned white.

The old lady knew that mentioning this matter would definitely make An Ruyi feel uncomfortable, but if she didn't take the opportunity to talk about it, she couldn't say that the two children would never have a chance again.

After Ruan Chuxiao heard this, her handsome face was very serious: "Who is this chewing the root of his tongue in front of his grandmother?!" If the grandson finds out, he will be severely punished! ”
