CHAPTER XLIV
Hua Rong watched Lu Yiliang and the others leave, and Xiang Nianrong's joyful words could still be heard from a long distance.
The gentle sunlight shone on the face, dappled with a warm smile.
"She's really happy."
Mama Li replied, "Well, I'm very happy. ”
Hua Rong smiled, "Let's go, we should go to the eldest lady." Those ladies and sisters should have gone. ”
Dafu Rao's house is on the east side, close to Hua Qin's study, which undoubtedly symbolizes the status of the eldest lady and the main mother. The decoration is not too magnificent, but it is graceful and luxurious, which is very suitable for the eldest lady.
When she used to come, it was the annual New Year's Day family banquet, or it was winter, and she brought Hua Lu to ask for quarterly supplies. Now that I have embarked on this path, my state of mind is completely different.
The eldest lady waited quietly at the door with all the people, occasionally whispering, and when the flowers appeared, these whispers disappeared without a trace, and the silence and a bird's cry seemed abrupt.
"See the Queen."
"No courtesy."
After saluting, everyone moved closer to both sides, leaving an aisle in the middle, allowing Hua Rong to enter first, followed by the eldest lady, but this time Hua Rong sat on the main seat, the right hand side was the eldest lady, the left hand side was the second lady, and then went down in turn
The room is not, but there are a lot of people who come, and the sister who is married is not married. There are also daughters-in-law who have been married, and they are gathered together like this, but the huge room seems cramped, because it is too far away to look good, and there are only seven ladies seated. Then behind each lady stood her daughter or daughter-in-law.
Because I didn't know how long it was, I put a chair. The back of the chair in front is not very high, so it does not cover the person in the back.
After everyone was seated, Hua Rong didn't say anything for a long time, and the eldest lady played a role in warming up the introduction.
There was a small talk without a match, and in the blink of an eye, it was noon, and Hua Rong looked at the warm sunshine outside the hall and was a little distracted.
I don't know what Nianrong was playing outside, where she went, and whether she was happy.
Thinking about it, I began to get a little distracted. But the following conversation is still extremely lively and intense, and the words are nothing more than envy, as well as the so-called Fengchang but have not escaped their own thoughts, probably looking for an opportunity, an appropriate time, not abrupt.
chatting and chatting, they talked about the matter of Ji Xuan, look, to the point, what they are worried about is nothing more than their daughter's marriage and their son's career, otherwise they would not have chatted most of this dry chatter, you know, they don't deal with each other on weekdays, and now they are so united, in order to be nothing more than these two things.
When Hua Rong heard this, she was also more energetic, and a smile appeared on her face, "Time flies so quickly in a blink of an eye, and the eldest sister's daughter is about to catch up, this palace remembers that it is right, when she left Jiangnan, Huan'er only arrived at the shoulder of this palace." ”
When Hua Rong left Jiangnan, Lin Huan was almost eight or nine years old, and like her mother, she was gentle and kind.
Looking, looking, Hua Rong's gaze quickly fixed on the woman sitting slimly beside the eldest sister.
Hua Rong's face was overjoyed, and she hurriedly beckoned to Lin Huan, "Quick, come here, let my aunt see, now she has become a big girl." ”
Lin Huan's face was slightly red, he took a step, stepped forward a little shyly, and saluted, "Lin Huan sees the queen's mother." ”
"You've grown so big?"
Hua Rong's eyes were full of love, as if she saw Nianrong grow up.
"It's going to be tomorrow, right?"
Lin Huan nodded shyly, "Well, Ming." Does Queen Ming help Huan'er host? ”
Looking at the look of anticipation, Hua Rong nodded, "Aunt Host won't, but she will participate, and I'll prepare a big gift for you when the time comes, okay?" ”
"Thank you, Queen."
Lin Huan smiled and blushed, like a girl who has not yet married, and she will be shy with a word or two.
The more Hua Rong looked at it, the more he liked it, in the end, it was also because of his childhood friendship, so he immediately moved a chair and sat beside him, which aroused the envy of everyone.
"In the past, when you were there, your aunt often took you to bake sweet potatoes and potatoes to eat, remember? At that time, every time you finished eating, you had to keep one or two to bring to Zitao, remember? ”
Lin Huan blushed and nodded, "I remember, but every time I put it in my pocket, it doesn't look like it when I bring it back." ”
Hua Rong smiled, "Every time my aunt does this to you." You don't listen, you have to put it in your pocket. As a result, I couldn't eat it once, and when I came back, I complained to my aunt, but I waited until next time. Still have to be in your pocket. ”
Hua Rong and Lin Huan chatted happily about their childhood, envious of others, and regretted one after another, why didn't they have a good memory with the queen at that time? But when I think about it, it doesn't seem to be a lot, but it's not very good.
It's a cheap big house, and they have done all the good things, and they have been allowed to occupy them, but listen, in the night, the queen went to find the master, and in the third husband's room, she listened to a lot of rewards, along with the second young master's wife's mother's family!
Alas! I have to let the lord go to me today, in case the queen mother looks for the lord again, maybe she will ask for something at that time.
"Huan'er is really getting better and better. Everyone is beautiful and generous. ”
Hua Rong couldn't help but praise again, and then went straight to the point, since they had always wanted to talk. Let's just talk about it thoroughly.
"I don't know if there are any people who are optimistic? Once the girl is married, she will immediately have to marry someone, but it is a big deal, I don't know if the eldest sister has a suitable candidate? ”
The eldest sister was a little excited, although she had inherited a lot of affection from the queen, she didn't want to trouble in this matter, if she didn't mention it, then she wouldn't bother, but she mentioned it. It's inevitable to get excited, after all, the marriage of children is a big event. It's all top priority.
"Not yet, but there are a few households under the post, and I haven't made up my mind yet, so I want to take a look at it again."
Hua Rong smiled, "Of course, I have to take another look, Huan'er is so good-looking, and she is a beautiful girl, so naturally you have to choose a good choice." I don't know, how many households are there? ”
The eldest sister replied, "The second son of Shunfu Fuyi, the third son of Command Shi, and the eldest son of Fu Cheng." Xuanhui Shi's son-in-law. ”
Because Lin Huan's father is a concubine, the person who comes to ask for relatives will not have too high status, if the higher ones are concubines, and the lower ones are concubines, which also makes it difficult to choose.
"Does Huan'er have a favorite?" Hua Rong asked with a smile.
Lin Huan blushed with shame and said angrily, "Auntie, Huan'er hasn't finished yet~ How can you say such shy words in public?" ”
Hua Rong couldn't close her mouth with a smile, "Look, Auntie's Huan'er is still shy!" ”
"Auntie!" Lin Huan clutched the corner of his clothes and blushed.
