Chapter 27: The Old Lady of the True King's Mansion
Xiangrui led Song Yi all the way to Qingsong Courtyard.
Different from Zilin's loud and unflinching personality, Xiangrui is a typical character with a completely different personality from Zilin.
Xiangrui is calm, cautious in speaking, and does not leak in behavior.
Along the way, Xiangrui chatted with Song Yi with a pair or not.
Song Yi didn't dare to take it lightly and dealt with Xiangrui carefully.
But fortunately, Xiangrui only asked some things before Song Yi entered the house, and Song Yi could easily deal with it.
By the time the three of them returned to Qingsongyuan, it was getting dark.
However, the courtyard is still brightly lit.
Song Yi was not in a relaxed mood, and always felt that the future was confused, as if there was a bad atmosphere in this Qingsong Courtyard.
Song Yi paused, Xiangrui didn't say much, only turned her head and smiled. And Zi Lin on the side looked at Song Yi with disdain.
"Why don't you go quickly? Are you afraid? There are no wild beasts in our green pine courtyard."
Zilin silently observed Song Yi all the way. Anyway, she didn't see any advantages of Song Yi, and she was still worried that Song Yi could enter Wentao Garden.
Song Yi didn't take Zilin's provocation to heart at all, in her opinion, Zilin was just like a little girl who couldn't eat candy and had a temper.
Song Yi smiled secretly, and then quickly said, "It's okay, let's go quickly." Didn't you say that the old lady was already in a hurry? ”
Song Yi didn't match his own tone, which made Zilin unhappy again. I wanted to go forward to find trouble, but I was pulled by Xiangrui.
Xiangrui whispered a few words in Zilin's ear, and then Zilin, who was originally angry, immediately stopped angry.
Then he said to Song Yi: "I don't care about you rough people. Let's go, the old lady is waiting in the house."
Zilin took the lead and stepped into the Qingsong Courtyard. Subsequently, Xiangrui and Song Yi walked into the courtyard.
"Sister Xiangrui and Sister Zilin are back"
Along the way, the people in the courtyard greeted Xiangrui and Zilin one after another.
Zi Lin looked back at Song Yi proudly again, a little to show off.
Song Yi cooperated and made an envious expression, "The slave is really envious of the two sisters."
"Oh? My sister doesn't have to worry either. I heard that you are about to go to the prince's Wentao Garden, where your sister is the only grace, and when the time comes, maybe there will be a time when your sisters will ask you for help."
Xiangrui had something to say, and before Song Yi could ask, she saw her standing at the door and spreading the word to the main house.
The people in the house quickly agreed, and someone lifted the beaded curtain.
Xiangrui looked at the girl who opened the door, nodded, and then said to Song Yi behind her, "Miss Song, please come in, the old lady, the eldest lady and the second lady are waiting for you inside."
When Song Yi heard this, he was really nervous. It is said that three women are in one play, and I don't know how to sing this play?
Song Yi took a deep breath and followed into the house.
Originally, the atmosphere in the house was still very brisk, but after Song Yi entered the house, no one spoke immediately.
Song Yi learned from Xiangrui and Zilin to salute, but she didn't let her get up, so she didn't dare to stand up casually and kneel there.
Song Yi knew that this was the old lady's dismount for herself, and she could only bear it.
Song Yi lowered his head, not knowing the expressions of the other people in the room.
And the old lady of the real king's mansion on the main seat, Du Shi, holding the tea cup, seemed to be more interested in the tea in her hand.
The old lady didn't speak first, and everyone else had their own thoughts, and they didn't speak.
There is a room of children and dependents in the house, with the old lady Du Shi as the head of the horse.
Song Yi lay on her stomach, and in the early summer evening, although it was not too hot, the low pressure in the house still made her feel that she couldn't breathe.
Xiangrui and Zilin returned to the old lady and whispered in the old lady's ear.
The old lady Du Ruomei listened to Xiangrui's return, and thoughtfully, her grandson was really unexpected. Over the years, she has carefully selected girls, and no one looks down on them. chose such a girl of unknown origin.
Du Ruomei sneered, but she covered it up with a tea cup, and no one saw her expression just now.
It's summer, and the sound of cicadas outside is particularly crisp in this quiet night.
Although it was still early summer, Song Yi's forehead was sweaty, and he even felt that his armpits were wet.
When Song Yi couldn't help it, he heard an old woman's voice directly in front of him, "People are coming?" ”
"Yes, old lady, it's been a long time," replied another old woman.
Because Song Yi lowered his head and didn't see it, it was the old lady and her mother Yin who spoke.
"Oh? When people get old, they get sleepy after dinner. ”
The old lady laughed at herself, and the Yin family next to her immediately replied, "Where, old lady." It's starting to get hot on this day, and people are lazy. Don't say you're old, the old slave looks at the fifth lady, and you've been sleepy for a long time."
Zhu Shanhan, the fifth lady who was named, was at a loss, and her face looked like she had just woken up from a dream. The crowd burst into laughter.
Because of Miss Five's honest performance, the atmosphere of the scene seems to be lively again.
Song Yi listened to the happy conversation of the family in a room, and seemed to be a superfluous person.
Although the old lady was smiling, she had something on her mind.
The family talked for a while, and the old lady seemed to think that it was almost over.
Only then did he ask, "The girl on the ground is the girl chosen by the prince?" ”
"Yes, old lady. Kneeling on the ground was the girl the executive said, "It's Xiangrui who replied."
"Oh? How did you find this girl? The old lady seemed puzzled, and then said to Song Yi, "Raise your head, let me see what kind of girl it is, into the eyes of the prince."
Song Yi obeyed and slowly raised his head.
In the candlelight, Song Yi's face clearly leaked.
