Chapter 731: Poor and lowly friends must not be forgotten
731
Shangyuan Festival, because it is a national mourning period, so there is no celebration.
Each household has already uncovered the new peach talisman on the Yuan Ri post, and the street is very deserted.
It's very different from previous years.
There was a carriage in front of the Chaoyong Mansion, and Wu Liuniang got off the carriage in a graceful manner, she was wearing a thick cotton robe, but her figure was still beautiful.
It just so happened that Donggua was standing in front of the door and talking to the gatekeeper, and when he saw her coming, he hurriedly stepped forward and greeted: "It turned out that Liuniang was here, and she worked hard all the way." Why didn't the child bring it? You're talking a lot, aren't you? ”
"It was too cold to bring him here, thank you for your concern." Wu Liuniang said: "I was too busy to come over a year ago, and I always thought about coming over to say hello to my grandfather." ”
"Grandpa remembered your family's wine a few days ago, and said that he must take some time to go over when spring begins!" Winter melon smiled and said, "It's a coincidence, Liuniang, you're here." ”
Although Wu Liuniang's status is low, she is a noble person when Zhong Ye was poor, so Donggua never dared to slack off and let Wu Liuniang into the house.
"Knowing that my grandfather is now a busy man and has no time to go to me, I specially pulled a few jars of wine for him. There are also some dried bamboo shoots, which were dried last year, and the five girls love to eat them, which is a little bit of my heart. Wu Liuniang smiled: "I just don't know when I can drink their happy wine." ”
"It's coming," Winter Melon lowered his voice but couldn't suppress his joy: "The Holy One has already made a promise, and he will make an order as soon as the national mourning is removed." ”
"Yo, that's great, Grandpa Zhong can finally hug the beauty." Wu Liuniang's smile is like a flower.
"Who's to say it isn't? Hulu is too busy to get out of the house these days, and he makes clothes for his grandfather to wear when he gets married! The winter melon thief said awkwardly: "No one is allowed to interfere with such a large piece of clothes, shoes and socks, I think he will die of exhaustion." ”
"I said why didn't I see him," Wu Liuniang is also very familiar with Hulu, and knows that he is good at needlework: "Grandpa Zhong is really a virtuous and blessed person, with your two loyal servants, and a virtuous helper like the fifth girl." ”
"It's not easy for Liuniang to come here, let's stay for a few more days." Donggua asked someone to make tea and said, "Grandpa went to the palace and didn't come back until evening." ”
"I won't bother much, there is something at home." Wu Liuniang said: "I'm going back after noon." ”
"Then I'll have to eat lunch before leaving." Winter melon said: "Ask the kitchen to prepare the meal, and I'll take you around." ”
"It's okay, today's grandfather's mansion is different from the past." Wu Liuniang said with a smile: "I can't come for nothing, I have to take a good look and go back to tell those relatives in the countryside." ”
Winter melon led Wu Liuniang to walk around the house, and when she arrived at the West Cross Courtyard, Wu Liuniang saw two almost ordinary tall, short, fat and thin boys playing there, and couldn't help but exclaim: "The two handsome little dolls, whose family is this?" ”
Both children turned their faces, and the one in royal blue satin smiled at her. The other, dressed in azure satin, had a cold face and quickly turned his head away.
"Liuniang, don't call them little dolls, these two are great heroes of the imperial court!" Donggua smiled: "The one who doesn't like to laugh is the prince of Qingxi, and he is also the uncle of today." The one who loves to laugh is Grandpa Zhiyong, that is, the younger brother of the fifth girl. ”
"I heard about the two of them when I was in the countryside, but I didn't expect to meet a real person today." Wu Liuniang was a little surprised and said, "It's the first time I've seen such a good-looking male doll." ”
Wu Liuniang doesn't look at the identity of the person again, in the eyes of outsiders, Wei Yingjue and Wei Hongan, one is the little prince, the other is the little grandfather, and they naturally have to be sincerely afraid when they see it.
But Wu Liuniang felt that they were two little dolls, and they looked satisfactory, which made her like them from the bottom of her heart.
"How old are you both?" Wu Liunian stepped forward and took their hands and asked.
"We're both ten years old." Wei Hongan replied with a smile.
Wei Yingjue didn't speak, but he saw that Wei Hongan didn't take out his hand from Wu Liuniang's hand, so he simply let her hold his hand.
"When spring comes, follow the five girls, oh no, now it should be called the county lord, go to our vegetable club to play. There are delicious spring bamboo shoots and sea bass. Wu Liuniang smiled: "Grandpa, both of them love to eat my family's dishes, and they say that they are even better than gourds." ”
"Ying Jue, let's ride together when the time comes." Wei Hongan said: "You can dig bamboo shoots and catch fish by yourself." ”
"Good!" Wei Yingjue nodded, although he still had a cold face.
Then the gourd also came out and invited Wu Liuniang to eat.
Although the two children Wei Yingjue and Wei Hongan hold the title of the eldest, they are still too young after all, and reading and riding horses every day is already a serious thing.
Since the two mansions have not yet been renovated, both families are still living in their current location.
He often comes to the Zhiyong Mansion every day to play, anyway, Zhong Ye usually indulges the two of them, as long as he doesn't tear down the house, he will play with them.
After lunch, Wu Liuniang said goodbye and left, the winter melon and gourd couldn't stay, and brought her a lot of snacks and clothes in the house.
After sending Wu Liuniang away, the servants of the Wei family rushed over and said that the old lady asked the little grandfather to go back.
"Mrs. Gu is going back to Beijing, so I sent someone to report in advance." The servant said, "The old lady wants the grandfather to go back and write a reply to the aunt!" ”
The Shao family is about to return to Beijing, which is another great joy for Mrs. Zhu.
What the old man is looking forward to most is to reunite with his family, and now that Wei Yining's sister and brother have returned to her, if her daughter returns to Beijing, it will be enough for her to be at peace with her old age.
"Then we'll go back," Wei Hongan said to the gourd and winter melon, "and we'll come back tomorrow." ”
"If the little grandfather goes back, take half of the bamboo shoots that Wu Liuniang just brought to the county lord!" Hulu hurriedly said: "I heard that the county lord likes to eat this the most." ”
"So why don't you take it all to the county lord?" Winter melon said strangely: "Anyway, as long as the county lord likes to eat, the grandfather will definitely be reluctant to eat a bite." ”
"To say you're stupid is stupid," Hulu couldn't help but roll his eyes again: "Come and work with me." ”
As he spoke, he shook his hand, and the winter melon followed.
When he was taking something, the gourd said to the winter melon: "The county lord is about to get married, how can you eat it all when you bring it over?" You can't take this thing in your dowry, can you? ”
"Hehe, it's still thoughtful." Donggua smirked and scratched his head and said, "If you don't take it, maybe the county lord will marry in a hurry." When the time comes, Grandpa will give us a lot of credit. ”
"Don't eat yet, let's go to the meat shop." The gourd almost made him angry: "Hurry up and buy a pig's head and replace it!" This has been delayed for several years, and it can't be delayed any longer. ”
