"I see, the emperor's construction of the palace is really a big deal, and there must be a lot of business opportunities here." Chu Junlan said with a smile.

"Exactly, this time the emperor has made a lot of money," Xu lowered his voice and whispered in Chu Junlan's ear, "I heard your father say that the specifications of the palace are comparable to the palace in the capital. ”

Chu Junlan nodded: "I have also heard, according to me, the emperor of the palace has invested such a big cost, it is said that the mother of the concubine Shu has produced a lot of silver this time, if the palace is only used for the palace, it will be too laborious and costly, the emperor is a Ming monarch, but it is not necessary to work so hard for the people and money, unless the palace emperor has other uses." ”

"Sister Lan, do you mean......" Xu is also well-informed, and he couldn't help but have some associations, and then he was shocked by his own association, "This is a little unlikely, after all, it was Guozuo who originally set the capital in the capital." ”

"Yes, my daughter just said this casually, we just have to listen to the emperor's orders for these things, but my mother wants to tell my father and remind him to pay attention, and the monarch and ministers are also vigilant when they play the right thing."

Xu smiled and nodded, she knew Chu Junlan's kindness. In fact, this kind of thing was not what they should have said in private, but Xiao Xu and the emperor have some in-depth relationships, maybe the news that Chu Junlan got will be very substantiated, Chu Junlan is willing to tell himself, it is also for the sake of the family, and he will not see her and Chu Hua.

"Mother knows. I'll tell your dad to pay attention. ”

Chu Junlan went with the Xu family to greet the old lady and met the eldest aunt, the third aunt and the sister-in-law.

When the family was laughing, Chu Junlan looked left and right, and said with a smile: "Why didn't you see Sister Xi?" ”

"She, she caught a cold and refused to come to the main house, saying that she was afraid of being sick and giving it to the old lady." The third aunt said with a smile.

Chu Junlan said: "It just so happens that I'm back, I'll go and take a look at Sister Xi." ”

"That's a good feeling."

Chu Junlan turned back to Xu and said, "Mother, I'll go to the third aunt to sit for a while." ”

"Go, go," Xu was happy to see Chu Junlan close to his family, and took the third aunt's card with a smile, "Hey, this is a good card, but it will be cheaper for me." ”

The third aunt laughed: "Look at the second sister-in-law, I just went to pick up my daughter and said that she gave me the seat, and now she is snatching it back." ”

"You little grease mouth, you call Niang Pingli." Xu deliberately quarreled with the third aunt, causing the old lady to laugh as if she had eaten ginseng fruit.

Chu Junlan was on the side, and in such a pleasant atmosphere, he couldn't help laughing.

This is the atmosphere that a home should have, but such a scene is absolutely not seen in the palace. Those wives and concubines in the palace all want the other party to return to the west as soon as possible, speaking of which, the Maoguo Mansion has a home.

Chu Junlan followed the third aunt to visit Chu Lingxi, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw Chu Lingxi loosely holding his hair, wearing a homely yarn gown, and reading a book on the warm kang by the window, while Chu Zhan was sitting at the table of the Eight Immortals not far away, eating tea with his head down.

Seeing Chu Junlan and the third aunt coming together, Chu Zhan hurriedly put down the tea bowl, stood up and said with a smile: "The third aunt is fine." Sister Lan is back. ”

"Brother Zhan, you also came here to see Sister Xi."

"yes."

At this time, the third aunt took the book in Chu Lingxi's hand and threw it aside: "How many times have you said it?" When you are sick, you have to recuperate, and how much trouble does it take to study? Do you still want to do it? ”

Chu Lingxi's face was pale, he was much thinner than before, he looked in poor spirits, and he was a little dying.

"Mother, I'm idle and idle......"

"Where are you idle? Your brother Zhan came to chat with you, and you still read? How unruly! ”

"Brother Zhan is not an outsider." Chu Lingxi lowered his head and muttered.

The third aunt pressed Chu Lingxi to lie down and said, "Your sister Lan came back, just to show you the pulse, your wind and cold have been dragging on for several days, did you secretly pour those medicines and didn't take them?" ”

"I didn't." Chu Lingxi's aggrieved mouth was deflated, and two bubbles of tears quickly filled up in his eyes.

The third aunt wanted to pinch people helplessly, but she didn't say anything, why did she cry?

Chu Junlan sat on the edge of the bed and helped look at the pulse, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he looked at Chu Lingxi, the two looked at each other, and Xiao Nizi actually lowered her head.

Chu Junlan said with a smile: "Third aunt, Sister Xi is fine, it's just an ordinary cold, so it's good to take medicine to recuperate." ”

The third aunt breathed a sigh of relief, and then smiled: "The doctor's medicine has also been taken for several days. It didn't get any better. ”

Chu Junlan got up and said, "I'll go and see the prescriptions and medicinal materials." ”

"Hey, here, you come with the third aunt." The third aunt took Chu Junlan to the wing room and personally inspected the medicinal materials and prescriptions.

"There is no big problem with the recipe, just a few flavors of medicine can be slightly increased or decreased, and the medicinal materials are all good." Chu Junlan casually took out the charcoal strip wrapped in a piece of paper in his sleeve, wrote a few strokes after the prescription, and reconsidered the ratio.

The third aunt happily held the prescription and said with a smile: "It's good, so your sister will get better soon." ”

The two went back to the room, and after chatting for a while, Chu Lingxi said, "Mother, you go and rest for a while, I still want to talk to Sister Lan about myself." ”

The third aunt sneered: "You little girl, do you still have a secret with your mother?" ”

Chu Lingxi coquettishly: "When our juniors talk, my mother will go to rest!" ”

"Okay, okay, I'll go, I'll go." The third aunt waved her hand helplessly, turned around and walked out of the room, and went outside to tell the maid to prepare tea and snacks to come into the house.

When there were no outsiders inside or outside the house, Chu Junlan glanced at Chu Zhan, then at Chu Lingxi, and sat down beside Chu Lingxi with a smile: "What, could it be that Sister Chengxi has some secrets she wants to tell me?" ”

Chu Lingxi pursed her lips, tears fell like beads with broken threads, and hugged Chu Junlan: "Sister Lan!" ”

Chu Junlan hurriedly hugged her and patted her on the back to comfort: "Okay, okay, don't cry, what is there to tell your sister, your sister can't do it, and your brother Zhan is here." ”

Chu Zhan sighed helplessly, spread his hands and said, "Don't embarrass me, I'm blind in this matter, and I can't do her business." ”

"What the hell is going on? I looked at your pulse and found that the depression did not go away, you are so young, where did you get such a heavy mind? ”

"Sister Lan, you, when you married Shizi, in addition to the words of the matchmaker, is it you, you also like Shizi very much? Otherwise, you wouldn't have married Shizi while he was unconscious, would you? Chu Lingxi sniffed and asked in a low voice.

Chu Junlan raised his eyebrows, he had already guessed a little, and nodded generously: "Yes, I am happy with him, and I am naturally willing to accompany him through thick and thin, even if he is in a coma, I am confident that I can cure him, whether it is a year or ten or twenty years, I can wait." ”

"It's so good, it's so happy, but ......" Chu Lingxi sobbed again, "But I can't do anything, and the people I like don't want to do anything for me." ”
