Chapter 33 Ruiyang County Lord
Zheng Lingyi's wound still worried Aunt Jiang, so she had to advise: "You let Sister Jiu do more and don't worry, she is older after all." β
Zheng Lingyi should all respond, so that Aunt Jiang can raise the baby with peace of mind.
Although it is to serve my aunt, there is no shame.
But in the final analysis, it is impossible for the Lu family to let their own daughter go to the county lord before and after the saddle.
Because he would come to stay for a while every year, the county lord of Ruiyang didn't put on any scenes.
However, as soon as the carriage of the county lord's mansion appeared on the street corner, the people in the Guogong Mansion were busy up and down.
"Ma'am, take the steps carefully." Dan Zhu supported the Lu family and said lightly.
The fan in Lu's hand shook quickly, but her heart became more and more popular, "It's like this every year, I have to meet her at the door!" β
Although the Lu family said this, Danzhu remembered that the county lord of Ruiyang had not been so difficult to serve a few years ago, and since the old lady left, he had become more and more harsh on the Lu family.
The Lu family had already set up half a pillar of incense at the gate of the Guogong Mansion, but the carriage of the county lord of Ruiyang seemed to be broken down on the road, and it had not arrived for a long time.
Danzhu sent several groups of road-finding servants to inquire, and when he came back, he only said that the county lord thought that the carriage would be bumpy if it went too fast, and would disturb the people, so he let the horses walk as if they were strolling leisurely, and the coachman did not even move the whip.
Lu Shi was so angry when she heard the reply, but Mama Zhao was staring at her, she couldn't say anything, and she didn't want to make the concubines see the jokes, so she could only endure it and said, "The county lord is really kind and magnanimous." β
After waiting for another half pillar of incense, the county lord's carriage was late.
Mama Zhao ordered a sturdy little guy and went to make a stool for the county lord to settle down.
A pair of embroidered shoes as pale and purple as the sunset stepped lightly on the back of the little girl, Zheng Lingyi looked up, and saw the county lord of Ruiyang wearing a crimson crane skirt and elegantly stepped out of the carriage.
The appearance of the county lord of Ruiyang is very stubborn, with prominent cheekbones, a slightly large high nose, and a slanted forehead, there is no trace of flattering kitsch on her face, and she is full of fairy cold and hard.
Only the tails of her eyes drooped a little, as if the skirt of the fairy was stained with fireworks, which made her soften a little.
"Say hello to the county lord of Ruiyang, and say hello to my aunt." The girls said in unison.
The county lord of Ruiyang squinted his eyes with satisfaction, glanced at Lu Shi again, and forced her to be blessed alone, and said, "Say hello to the county lord." β
Zheng Lingyi naturally made enough rules and saluted the county lord.
There was a clear pain in his knee when he bent, and Zheng Lingyi just pursed the corners of his mouth and didn't show any other looks.
Zheng Yanxian was careless when she saluted, but she actually stared at her all the time, and when she saw that she could bear it so much, she pouted her lips rather bored.
Her idea and action made Mama Zhao see it in her eyes.
Mama Zhao is an old lady from the palace, and she attaches the most importance to women's manners and etiquette, so she made a note of it fiercely, just waiting for her to have something inappropriate later, and sue the county lord of Ruiyang.
The group entered the small building of the West Building, and the lord of Ruiyang County glanced at it roughly, and the girls at the bottom were all like flowers and bones, some were half-opened, and some were not open.
When he saw Zheng Yanru, he praised her for being dignified, and when he saw Zheng Yanxian, he praised her for her beauty, although the county lord of Ruiyang didn't like the Lu family, he wouldn't embarrass his niece too much.
"The county lord, please use tea." Zheng Yangyang asked Zheng Lingyi to hold the tea tray, and he picked up the tea cup and gave it to the county lord of Ruiyang.
The county lord of Ruiyang was gossiping with Zheng Yanru, turned his head and responded casually, took the teacup and took a sip, and when he put down the teacup, he suddenly saw a pair of eyes that were seven points similar to himself.
She glanced at Zheng Lingyi up and down, chuckled, beckoned to her, and said, "How old is this?" This little weed suddenly sprouted a bud, and I really couldn't tell it for a while. β
Although these words are praising Zheng Lingyi, they are not very popular.
Lu Shi listened quite comfortably, and said, "This is fifteen. A few years ago, when I was young, I was afraid of colliding with the county lord, so I didn't let her come out. β
"Hmm." The county lord of Ruiyang let out a nasal voice with unknown meaning, grabbed Zheng Lingyi's small hand and pulled it to his side, and after carefully studying it for a while, he said, "The appearance is still quite marked." β
Zheng Lingyi's face was pink, he lowered his head and grinded his toes a little shyly.
Her shy little appearance made the county lord of Ruiyang smile, and said to the maidservant Bijiao beside her, "Give this girl the bracelet with pink pearls in my box." β
Bijiao knew that this string of beads was originally intended by the county lord of Ruiyang to leave it to Sister Luo'er, and she was a little surprised in her heart, "This fifteenth sister is on the line of the county lord's eyes." β
Fortunately, Lu Shi didn't quite understand the origin of this pink pearl, otherwise, the next time he showed his face in front of people, it would not be Zheng Lingyi.
Zheng Lingyi accepted the bracelet, thanked the county lord of Ruiyang, cautiously stepped aside, and took a deep breath quietly.
In order to make a shy pink face, Fang almost suffocated himself.
"Auntie, why did you give my sister a gift first, do I have it?" When it comes to coquettishness, if Zheng Yanxian talks about the second, no one dares to call it the first.
This crispy coquettish sound fell into the ears of the county lord, and he only barely made a few laughs.
"Banana." The county lord said lazily.
Bijiao stepped forward, let the people divide the gifts one by one, and returned to the county lord.
Seeing this, Lu Shi hurriedly said: "The county lord is tired? β
The county lord of Ruiyang glanced at her slowly and methodically, and said, "Yes, some." β
"Then, let's step back first, ask the county lord to rest for a while, and then talk to the county lord to relieve boredom at dinner."
Lu Shi can't wait to leave quickly, staying here, he has to be a dwarf, inferior.
"If you want to go, let's go. You can't stay with me, don't take my nieces with you. The county lord of Ruiyang glanced at Lu Shi and rolled his eyes clearly.
Lu Shi swallowed his anger, and the smile on his face was about to stiffen, "Then I'll go and see how dinner is prepared first." β
Zheng Yanxian was a little overwhelmed, so after Lu left, she said to the lord of Ruiyang County: "Auntie, even if you don't like my mother, you don't need to be so aggressive." β
Mama Zhao has always disliked Zheng Yanxian's temperament, she is straightforward but a little less calm, naΓ―ve but a little more sophisticated.
The county lord of Ruiyang glanced at her, and when his eyes fell, there was a flash of sadness in his eyes, but when he raised his eyes, he pretended to be arrogant, and said, "What? As an elder, can I still be respectful to her? β
Zheng Yanxian frowned and whispered, "You are a strong word." β
"Then you coax your mother to go, and you don't have to stay with me."
The county lord of Ruiyang has little patience, and he will not coax a girl who is against him.
"Let's go!" Zheng Yanxian said angrily that she didn't forget to bring a salute when she left.
If the Lu family knew that Zheng Yanxian had upset the county lord of Ruiyang for herself, she probably wouldn't approve of it, after all, there was still a basket of benefits for the county lord's aunt.
After the old lady went, most of the remaining private rooms were taken back by her mother's family, but Lu's estimate was wrong, and he asked Zheng Guogong several times, and asked him to block it back.
Lu Shi suspected that those private houses were given to the county lord of Ruiyang, even if she didn't like the county lord herself, she had to ask a few daughters to flatter her.
After all, when Zheng Yan returned to get married, the county lord subsidized a lot of dowry, far more than she should do.
The county lord of Ruiyang laughed mockingly, and said to Zheng Yanru: "Your sister, it's better to find someone with a lower threshold to marry." If she is a wealthy family, I am afraid that people will not look down on her frivolous nature. β
Zheng Yanru smiled awkwardly and said, "Auntie, don't be angry, the sixth sister is just a little childish." β
"Childish?" The county lord of Ruiyang asked in surprise, stretched out his hand and dragged Zheng Lingyi again, and said, "This age is almost childish, is she still childish?" β
When Zheng Lingyi was dragged over by the county lord of Ruiyang, she stepped on Zheng Yangyang carelessly, and she whispered to Zheng Yangyang: "Ninth sister, I'm sorry." β
With so many pairs of eyes staring, Zheng Yangyang could only smile reluctantly, reluctantly took a step back, and gave Zheng Lingyi a place.
Zheng Yanru looked at Zheng Lingyi's restrained appearance and smiled, and said, "Since my aunt likes the fifteenth sister, let's keep her by my side these days." Aunt Jiang is about to give birth, and there is a seventeen by her side, so I'm afraid she can't take care of it. β
"Oh?" Hearing Zheng Yanru's words, the county lord of Ruiyang suddenly came to his senses and said, "This is a happy event." β
"Yes. There is also an Aunt Ai, who is also nine months pregnant. β
Aunt Jiang has already been mentioned in the words, and there is no reason not to mention Aunt Ai.
Zheng Yan is gossiping, but Zheng Yangyang is extremely uncomfortable to hear.
"Oh well. You're going to be in my little building for the next few days, would you like to? The county lord said to Zheng Lingyi.
Zheng Lingyi nodded vigorously, her lips were pink, as if she had been dyed with petal juice, and she only heard her say, "Well, I am willing." β
"Why do you want to?" The county lord saw that she was dumb and cute when she answered, so he teased.
It happened that a gust of wind blew in through the west window, and the wind was still wrapped in the green air of the surrounding grass and trees.
The soft hair around Zheng Lingyi's ears was swept up by the wind, she squinted her eyes comfortably, and said without thinking: "It's cool." β
This year-old little girl has fleshy cheeks, and she speaks clearly, but there is still a little bit of milk.
In comparison, it is indeed more likable than Zheng Yangyang's current age.
Zheng Yangyang's elegant appearance should be slim and standing far away, or sitting silently, occasionally covering his lips and smiling, so that it is appropriate.
But she is a concubine, and she has no capital to stay out of the matter, so she can only please others.
But she can't let go of her body and is coquettish, and she looks fake when she is immature, which can be described as a dilemma and really embarrassing.
Zheng Yangyang saw that the words between the county lord of Ruiyang and Zheng Yanru had come to an end, and hurriedly said, "County lord, please drink tea." β
The county lord of Ruiyang glanced at her, looked at her diligent and embarrassed appearance, and looked a little pitiful, so he said: "Has this year's learning improved?" β
"Sister Jiu's knowledge has always been very good." Zheng Lingyi was depicting the gorgeous and delicate embroidery on the main dress of Ruiyang County, and hurriedly said when he heard the words.
"Oh?" The county lord of Ruiyang pinched Zheng Lingyi's little face again, and said to Zheng Yangyang casually: "In previous years, you were waiting in front of me, so stay and study for me." β
