What happened to Zhou's mother and daughter is a matter of being locked up in the house after all, and it is difficult for outsiders to explore.

Songhuayuan's move of inviting the doctor and sending the doctor away is known to the whole house, especially Miss Tong San is present again, and everyone speculates whether it is related to Miss Tong San's entry into the palace today.

In the pine birch garden, Tong Qingyan knelt on the mat honestly, and Tong Huaiyuan felt that his beard was going to be bald.

Glancing at the silent old lady, and then at the daughter who was kneeling in a proper manner, Tong Huaiyuan sighed.

"Mother, let's let Sister An get up first."

"Kneel!" The old lady glared at her daughter's slave's son, glanced at Tong Qingyan who was kneeling in the center, and snorted heavily, "If you don't kneel for a long time, she won't be able to remember the lesson!" Before entering the palace, I listened to Wen teach her to keep a low profile, but what happened to her?! Kneel for me, kneel for an hour! ”

"If the mother really wants to punish her for kneeling, come and take the mat away."

"Shut up." Looking at Tong Huaiyuan's uncertain expression, the old lady rolled her eyes angrily, "Even if you want to punish kneeling, you can't ignore the child's body, the punishment is to make her remember for a long time, not to hurt her knees." ”

"But I don't suffer from flesh and skin, and this memory is not long, according to my son, I still have to take the mat away, and someone will come——"

"You bastard! Sister An'er is not your own child, how can you be so ruthless?! Sister Ann got up and came to her grandmother. ”

"Yes."

Tong Qingyan stood up sharply and walked to the old lady's side, Mother Wang handed over a round pestle in time, Tong Qingyan sat down steadily, picked up the beauty hammer and beat the old lady's legs.

Tong Huaiyuan squeezed his eyes at Tong Qingyan, straightened his expression before the old lady glared at him, and stroked his beard again.

"It's not that grandmother is embarrassing you, you said that you entered the palace for the first time, how can you be so reckless?! If the nobles in the palace make a problem to you, oh no, then the three princesses will be in trouble. ”

"Grandmother, I know it's wrong, but at that time, my eldest sister was targeted, if I didn't help her, it would be too ruthless, wouldn't our Tongfu be even more looked down upon at that time?"

"You're still too young and thin-skinned. What about being targeted and looked down upon? The important thing is that the family is together, and peace is better than anything else, when you don't come forward in that situation, your eldest sister will be ridiculed at most, but when you look at you, you have relieved your eldest sister's siege, but you have also become the target of the third princess's attack. Mrs. Tong was a little scared when she thought of that picture, and patted Tong Qingyan's hand heavily, "If there is no concubine to break the siege, your reputation will not be good, and you will end up in a difficult situation in the future, even if the concubine is now relieved of the siege for you, do you see if you are on the cusp now?" ”

"But my eldest sister and I are both girls from the Tong family, whether it is me or my eldest sister being embarrassed, it is the same."

"It's different."

"Grandmother ......"

Tong Qingyan was stunned, don't people in this era pay the most attention to family relatives? Why is the old lady so calm, it can even be said to be ruthless.

"You are different from Sister Jiao'er! You are your father's daughter, a serious lady of the official family, your uncle's family will be separated after my death, they can only call it a children's house, and here ...... "The old lady stomped on the green brick floor," this place is worthy of being called a children's house! You are the only eldest lady in Tongfu. ”

Tong Qingyan looked at such an old lady, she didn't know what to say, everyone would be partial, the old lady from childhood to adulthood was partial to herself, everyone saw it in their eyes, but they didn't say anything, and they maintained a superficial harmony with each other.

Now that the old lady said it so clearly, Tong Qingyan felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't figure it out for a while, so she looked at the white-haired old man in a daze.

"Mother, An'er is still young, what are you doing with her......

"It's not small, it's thirteen years old for the New Year, and even the husband's family has found it for himself, where is it small?!"

"Thirteen hasn't reached yet, why don't you ...... Husband's family?! What husband's house? What the mother said, why can't the son understand it? ”

Master Tong felt that his beard was pulled very painfully, let go of his hand and didn't know where to put it, and looked at the old mother who had flattened a piece of pastry with wide eyes.

Mrs. Tong glanced at her stunned son idly, and felt that there was an indescribable balance in her heart, when she heard the little girl's wild words, she was almost like this, right?!

"Even if Sister An doesn't lose the election, she won't marry an ordinary scholar, so throw away all your personal choices."

"The mother wants to choose a son-in-law for Sister An, and the son doesn't dare to have an opinion, but what does it mean that he has found a good husband? Sister An, who are you looking for? ”

Tong Qingyan put down the beauty hammer, stood up and saluted the stunned old father, and replied generously.

"Back to her father's words, my daughter and the prince of Huai have the same heart."

Tong Huaiyuan closed his chin with his hand and read the sage books for twenty or thirty years, but in the face of his biological daughter who said his private promise so brightly, Tong Huaiyuan felt that his cognition had been baptized.

"Mother agreed?"

"Hmm."

"Oh, so be it."

"Huh?"

Now it was the old lady's turn to be surprised, she originally thought that her father would be furious when she heard the news, but she accepted it so easily?!

"Boss, you really don't care?"

"What kind of joke is my mother talking about, what do I care, the affairs of the backyard should be managed by Mrs., this girl's affairs, my mother agreed, presumably Mrs. will not say anything against it, and the son has nothing to object."

Mrs. Tong ignored her eldest son's words, and suddenly found that it seemed to be the truth, so the little girl directly found herself, made it clear that she wanted to use herself as a shield, and directly blocked the mouths of the eldest couple and said that she was still used to Tong Qingyan for a long time and made this decision.

Tong Qingyan silently moved a few steps to the side when Tong Huaiyuan spoke, and at this moment, she watched Mrs. Tong's sharp gaze sweep over her, and smiled wryly.

"What does it mean in the palace now, just wait for the holy decree. It's okay to be anxious or worried, it's all later, don't think about it, go back. ”

"Yes, mother, son is leaving."

"Yes, grandmother, granddaughter is gone."

Tong Huaiyuan personally sent Tong Qingyan to the gate of Hanlian Garden, and looked at Feiyan and Feicui standing at the gate of the garden, Tong Huaiyuan retracted what he wanted to say, and hummed an out-of-tune tune with his hands behind his back and went back to listen to Lanju.

Thinking of his wife's reaction when he heard the news, Tong Huaiyuan felt that his ears hurt a little.

Tong Qingyan stayed in Hanlian Garden peacefully, and during dinner, Feicui took a note and entered the house, and Pearl was persuading Tong Qingyan to eat two more bites of food.

Tong Qingyan looked at the note in Feicui's hand, and reached out to push away the radish balls from the pearl clip.

"Is it news from the Son? Get it. ”

Fei Cui glanced at Pearl's fierce gaze, and the outstretched hand retracted again.

"Miss wants to stop eating two bites? The note won't run anyway. ”

"I don't have an appetite, I've drunk the cold wind in the palace for so long today, I really can't eat it, bring it."

"Yes."

Feicui replied to Pearl with a helpless look, and handed the note to Tong Qingyan.

Tong Qingyan, who hurriedly read the note, suddenly showed a smile, picked up the jade chopsticks that were casually resting on the table, picked up a chopsticks and vinegared cabbage shreds and ate it.

"What did His Royal Highness say? Miss is so happy. ”

Shuangxi looked at Tong Qingyan, who was chopsticks one after another, and asked happily.

"His Royal Highness said that the restaurant has been bought, and it is a restaurant that is not well managed and is in a hurry to get rid of it, and I will go there tomorrow to take a look, and I will listen to my opinion on how to renovate and decorate." Saying that, he sandwiched another radish ball, "This is good news, people really only have a good appetite when they are in a good mood, and the four of you will go with me tomorrow." ”

"Really? That's great. ”

"The slave is going to prepare the dresses and jewelry for the young lady to go out tomorrow."

"The slave waits for the young lady's meal."

The four of them were all very happy, but Feiyan, who didn't say much, asked a little hesitantly.

"Tomorrow when you go out in such a big battle, won't the house say something?"

Double Happiness Pearl and Feicui listened to Feiyan's words, and immediately suppressed their smiles, of course they were very happy to be able to go out to play, if they made Miss embarrassed because of this, then it would be okay not to go out.

"Don't worry, after today, I don't have to shy away from the matter with the son. Grandmother and father already know, as long as it is not too much, they will turn a blind eye, as for the aunt's side, should be hidden or hidden, you can do it, right? ”

"Naturally, Miss rest assured."

Zhou didn't have the courage to inquire about Songhua Garden, Hanlian Yuan and Tinglanju didn't have anything to ask, and after appeasing Tong Manjiao, they sent people back to the courtyard, who knew that the girl in Tong Manjiao's house knocked on the door in the middle of the night.

"What's the noise in the middle of the night?!"

"Madame, no, ma'am......"

"What's wrong, curse Mrs. Ben in a panic, your skin is itchy?"

"No, madam, it's the eldest lady, the eldest lady has a high fever and has been talking nonsense......"

"Jiao'er?! Quick, take me! ”

When Zhou rushed to Tong Manjiao's house, Tong Manjiao was already there, but he also got up in a hurry, so he casually put on a mink coat, his hair was scattered, and his eyes were extremely sober.

"Mother, my sister has been calling you."

Zhou threw himself in front of the bed in distress, looked at Tong Manjiao with crimson cheeks, reached out and touched her forehead, the scorching temperature scalded the skin on the back of Zhou's hand, and even burned her heart.

"Where's the doctor?! Why haven't you come yet? ”

"Mother, don't worry, I've already gone to Jishitang to invite, at this time, only Jishitang will have a doctor, mother, don't be impatient."

Zhou turned around and hugged Tong Manjiao's hot body, and tears fell down in big drops.

"It's all the mother who is bad, the mother shouldn't tell you this, you child thinks so much, it's the mother who hurts you like this."

Tong Manji vaguely heard her sister and mother arguing in the room, but she didn't know what she said.

endured until dinner time, Tong Manjiao took advantage of having dinner with her sister, carefully probed Tong Manjiao's tone, and didn't ask anything, who knew that in the middle of the night, I heard that Tong Manjiao had a high fever, and now looking at Zhou's appearance, I can't help it anymore.

"What did my mother tell my sister, why did my sister have a fever?"

Zhou turned a deaf ear to Tong Manjiao's questioning, and only hugged Tong Manjiao, who had a high fever and was talking nonsense.

When Tong Qingyan was about to go out, she heard the news that Tong Manjiao's fever had subsided, and after thinking about it, she asked Zhishu to bring a bowl of shredded chicken porridge to Tong Manjiao's yard, so she took the four of them out to make an appointment.
