Zhao Ruxi, who was beaten by Qi Xugu, was sitting in the hall of Suiping Bo's Mansion at this time, listening to the praise of the eldest aunt and second aunt of the Zhu family for her in a daze.

“…… Isn't. Our sister Xi is beautiful and wise, and her natural posture is outstanding, not to mention the capital, she is a woman in the world, and no one can compare to her ......"

Even Zhu, who has a ten-centimeter-thick filter for his daughter, can't listen to it anymore.

She interrupted her sister-in-law's bottomless praise and asked, "Sister-in-law, you guys are coming here today, but what's the matter?" ”

"It's fine. I just thought that it would be spring soon, and our niece was really hard to study, so I took some supplements to make up for her. Zhu Heyu's wife, Meng Shi, said with a smile.

Zhu Hehuai's wife, Cao Shi, added: "Yes." In addition, spring is coming soon, so we will bring some materials to make a few spring shirts for our niece. ”

Zhao Ruxi glanced at her mother, her face full of helplessness.

After the Suiping Bofu was separated, after she and Zhao Jingli took their respective positions, the Zhu family also took her to the Zhu family. In the past two years, she also went back to Zhu's house with the Zhu family to worship the New Year.

Compared with the Suiping Marquis Mansion before the separation, the Zhu family was quite harmonious. Zhao Ruxi has a good impression of the two uncles and aunts. The Zhu family is not the kind of snobbish people, they value family affection more than power and money.

But she became busier and busier later, and Zhu couldn't bear to take her back when she returned to her parents' home; In addition, the uncle of the Zhu family has many sons, even if he has two cousins, they are all married, and there are no girls of the right age to interact with her, so she does not have much contact with the Zhu family.

At this time, the two aunts came, and they still looked like this, Zhao Ruxi really felt strange.

In the end, Meng Shi unraveled the mystery.

She smiled at Zhu and said, "We came here today to tell you that your eldest brother has been promoted." When Mu is on vacation, I want to invite the old lady and your family of four to have a light meal together, which can be regarded as celebrating for him. ”

Cao Shi also said: "A few days ago, Xianggong wrote a few articles and sent them to Master Peng with other friends. Somehow, Master Peng specially called Xianggong to help him point out, and told him that if he had any problems in the future, he would come to the door directly. If he had time, he would definitely watch it. ”

As she spoke, she turned her head and looked at Zhao Ruxi with a smile: "We don't have much to do with Master Peng." In the past, your second uncle also handed over articles to friends. But there are so many scholars in the capital, and Master Peng can't see it even if he has three heads and six arms. This time, we can be guided by Master Peng, we think about it, and it is estimated that it is a blessing for our niece. ”

Hearing his brother-in-law's words, Meng Shi also hurriedly said: "Sister Xi, so is your eldest uncle." He has been in the ministry for I don't know how many years, and he has not been able to rise. In terms of the background of the theory of ability, no one in the official department is better than him. If he can rise this time, it is estimated that Wu Shangshu will also look at Sister Xi'er's face. ”

When Zhu heard these words, his heart was full of joy, but he still said in his mouth: "Don't say that. The eldest brother and younger brother have come by chance, and it has nothing to do with Sister Xi. This can no longer be said. ”

"We saved, we know what is important." Meng Shi hurriedly said, "I only dare to say this to you, we don't dare to say this in front of outsiders." Otherwise, wouldn't it be causing trouble for Wu Shangshu and Master Peng? ”

Zhu Shi breathed a sigh of relief: "It's good that my sister-in-law knows." ”

The two ladies of the Zhu family sat down slightly, went to greet the old lady, and personally invited her to the banquet before leaving.

After sending off his sister-in-law and sister-in-law, Zhu returned to the old lady and saw that her daughter was sitting opposite the old lady, and the grandparents and grandchildren were drinking tea and eating snacks, which was very comfortable.

She said: "Wu Shangshu and Peng Xijiu, have you gone to say hello?" ”

Zhao Ruxi hurriedly waved his hand, swallowed the snack in his mouth, and took a sip of tea: "It's none of my business." Didn't you say that? The opportunity for the two uncles has arrived. ”

Zhu sat down, took the tea handed over by the maid, and snorted: "Do they have a chance, I don't know?" If it is not thanks to you, I do not believe it. ”

Zhao Ruxi glanced at her, then looked at the old lady, and said, "If you want to say that I am blessed, there is one thing that has nothing to do with me." I'll tell you two first, so that you don't have to be mentally prepared at that time. ”

Zhu wanted to take a sip of tea, but when she heard her words, the tea cup that had just been handed to her mouth was put down by her again.

Her expression became serious: "What's the matter?" ”

The old lady also looked at her granddaughter a little nervously.

They all know that Zhao Ruxi's pattern is huge. Some trivial things, such as Zhu Heyu and Zhu Hehuai were promoted and given guidance because of her, she didn't pay attention to it at all, and she didn't feel that it was her own merit and needed to be complacent.

Now that Zhao Ruxi is talking about it so seriously, it must be a big deal.

Zhao Ruxi called her to Kang Shilin yesterday, Xiao Qi planned to make her the county lord, and she told the two about Zhao Yuanxun's official request.

Before she finished speaking, Zhu slapped her: "You kid, why are you so stupid?" ”

She then wanted to count Zhao Ruxi down, and she shouldn't give up the position of county lord. But as if she realized something, she glanced at the old lady and swallowed back the words that came to her mouth.

In her opinion, it doesn't matter if her husband is an official or not, her daughter's status is the most important thing. But the old lady may not think so. In the eyes of the elderly, the future of their sons and grandsons is the most important. If she said too much, she was afraid that her mother-in-law would be unhappy.

But she didn't want the old lady to open her mouth and teach Zhao Ruxi a lesson: "You stupid girl, how can you do such a foolish thing?" Your father is at this age, and his health is not good, where can he be promoted as an official again? At most, two or three years will be done, and it's just a matter of having fun. If you can be the county lord, that's what will benefit you for a lifetime. It's really not possible, it's better for you to let the prince restore the original title to our house. It's hard for such an official to eat and dress properly, why are you here? ”

Zhu: "......"

Well, listening to the first half, she was still deeply glad that her mother-in-law had really changed completely. But when she heard the last two sentences, she became expressionless.

In the hearts of the elderly, the granddaughter is important, but the title of the Zhao family is also the most important.

"Can it be changed now? Before the holy decree was issued, you hurriedly went to your master to talk about it, and asked him to mention it to the emperor. The old lady urged Zhao Ruxi anxiously.

"Well, I can't change it." Zhao Ruxi said.

The fighting at the border subsided, and the previously busy system came to a halt. It just so happened that she mentioned this matter to Kang Shilin yesterday, and the system went to find out the results, and just now I told her the news for free. She just mentioned it to the old lady and Zhu.

Otherwise, with her temperament, if things are not done, she will never shout without first. If it doesn't work out, wouldn't it be a waste of joy?

Of course, this news was happy in her eyes, but in the eyes of the old lady and the Zhu family, there was no joy.
