"Say hello to the old lady, my cousin is well."

Zhong Jinxiu saluted and said with a smile: "Cousin, why did you come with your aunt?" ”

Shen Mingze hasn't seen Zhong Jinxiu for two months, and he always feels that she is becoming more and more brilliant now. That glimpse and smile is like the spring breeze in April, which warms people's hearts.

At a glance, I saw that she was wearing a pearl hairpin on her head, and her heart was very warm.

He said softly:

"Well, my aunt said that I didn't know about the marriage, so I asked me to remind me at home. There is no need to remind, since the old lady doesn't understand, I have a dowry list here, and the old lady just needs to follow the above purchase, if there are not enough people, the Shen family will send a few respectable relatives over, and this marriage will definitely be done beautifully. ”

Sure enough, the Shen family would intervene in this matter.

The old lady felt that this move was extremely bad.

In vain, some juniors looked down on, but the head of the Shen family never came, and he actually sent a junior, what does it mean?

It's a slap in the face.

A little doll knows how to do it, she actually asked Shen Ruju to go back to Shen's house to consult?

The old lady was stunned, and then heard Shen Mingze say: "It's all a family, and you can't let others think that the Zhong Mansion doesn't even have a master." ”

"And this is the queen's marriage, it's not a matter of shirking responsibility, it's inevitable that it's a crime of disrespect, we are relatives who came to remind me, last time I came out of the palace, the emperor also asked about the happy event of the Zhong family."

A sentence that there is no principal, an emperor's question, and the old lady is stunned.

There was a feeling of shame and fear on his face.

The old lady settled down for a moment before she said:

"This matter is a royal gift, it is a great honor, the family has been almost ready, but there are still some details, but they need to be discussed. When your aunt went back, she also wanted to ask the two ladies of the Shen family, after all, this is the queen's marriage, so you can't be sloppy. ”

Xiao Shen listened to the old lady's words and wanted to open her mouth to refute, but was thrown a warning look by the old lady, although she didn't understand, she still didn't speak.

I only muttered in my heart and pondered secretly.

Shen Mingze suddenly realized this, and pretended to be embarrassed and said: "I'm still worried, if the Guogong Mansion really has no main business, it seems that he wants to go into the palace to talk about it, and let the royal family send an official, after all, he is the eldest son of the Guogong Mansion." For no reason, they were born and died outside, protecting their families and defending the country, but this family is not the same. ”

"Since the old lady said that everything is ready, it is my aunt who has heard it. I also hope that the old lady will not blame the younger generation for being reckless. ”

Shen Mingze stood up and pleaded guilty with self-reproach, and the old lady said: "The heart of the fist, Shen Gongzi doesn't have to mind." ”

The old lady said again: "Shen Gongzi's affairs in Huainan this time have been done beautifully, and he has won the emperor's love, and the affairs of the court are busy, so I really shouldn't bother Shen Gongzi to make a trip in person." It is indeed a little troublesome for your aunt to do such a thing for the first time, but it is not the first time that the Guogong Mansion has done this, so it is naturally deliberately coping. ”

Zhong Jinxiu listened to her grandmother's words, firstly, she said that the daughter of the Shen family could not do things, and secondly, she shirked her responsibility.

She smiled and said: "Grandmother, the marriage matter, the elders are sponsored, I wait for the juniors to wait and see on the side, and my cousin finally came to visit, it just so happens that I want to hear my cousin talk about what I have seen in Huainan, it must be thrilling." ”

She stepped forward and threw the list prepared in her cousin's hand to Mother Se, and said, "Mama Se, are you going to do a good job, what is still missing from grandmother's preparations, hurry up and prepare to prepare, so as not to be looked down upon by the Nie family, and the bride will marry in and look down on us." ”

Zhong Jinxiu's words were straightforward, and Mother Se was a little embarrassed and said: "Miss, the old lady is naturally saved, and she will not let you lose face in front of your new sister-in-law." ”

To outsiders, this is unreasonable for the eldest lady.

However, how does Zhong Jinxiu care.

Shen Mingze laughed secretly in his heart, his cousin's words were true, but the old lady who forced him to do things according to the rules.

When his aunt came home, he had already seen what role the old lady of the Zhong family played in it.

He just came to make a fuss about the old lady, but for some reason, the old lady actually figured it out.

It's better, and it saves you the trouble of talking.

"Old lady, Ming Ze retired first."

"Go ahead, your cousins have something to talk about."

Zhong Jinxiu led Shen Mingze to the West Courtyard, and Shen Mingze was thinking about how to talk to his cousin all the way.

But seeing that my cousin was quiet all the way, she didn't mean to speak.

Not far away, not close, seems a little detached.

He didn't like this situation, and said, "Embroidered cousin, during my absence, there have been a lot of things happening in Beijing, can my cousin tell me about it?" ”

Zhong Jinxiu glanced at him, for two months, he had been training outside, and after he came back, his skin became dark, which added a little masculinity to himself.

He is already good-looking, and he exudes a calm atmosphere that his peers do not have.

Just thinking of the two aunts, she had to distance herself from this cousin.

The Shen family's filthy affairs are not easy to participate in, and she is not willing to get involved.

So she said: "A lot of things have happened in Beijing, since my cousin left, Sister Liang is about to have a baby now by coincidence, and there is still a big event, my cousin must not guess it, right?" But as soon as the words fell, he found that he had narrowed the distance again.

Shen Mingze's brows curled slightly, showing that he was very happy in his heart.

"What?"

"That's the eldest son of the eldest princess, Lu Fei, who is actually a fool, and the eldest princess is full of tight."

Zhong Jinxiu said that he was just stating one thing, although he tried his best to exaggerate, but the tone was unusually calm, Shen Mingze was smart and keen, how could he not hear the meaning of this.

But he didn't care whether the eldest princess's son was stupid or not, and he didn't care whether Liang Ningyun married that fool or not, what he cared about was whether his cousin was hurt.

Before he returned to Beijing, he heard the thrill of the capital, and he could only hate himself, but he couldn't get to his cousin's side.

He dealt with the affairs of Huainan as soon as possible, and ordered Zhong Liang to deal with the closing events in Huainan.

The eldest princess?

Assault on her cousin, and he will make her suffer the corresponding price.

"I heard that my cousin encountered Sun Wei's murder, is my cousin afraid?"

Zhong Jinxiu remembered that incident, but she was not afraid, and some regretted that she had never knocked down the eldest princess.

But there will always be a chance in the future.

"That's it, I'm not afraid, it's a pity, Mrs. Sun's generation of heroes died like that."

"Cousin, is it just a pity for Mrs. Sun?"

"Ah, what do you mean cousin?"

"Shouldn't it be a pity that the only son of the Sun family died?"

"This, it is said that Sun Wei has been gossiping about my great achievements in the teahouse all day, and now that he is dead, I should pity that no one arranged me?"

Zhong Jinxiu blinked, blinking, until Shen Mingze laughed, and then stopped.

"What my cousin said is true."

Shen Mingze said again: "Cousin of this matter, don't worry, I was not in the capital in the past, but now that I have entered the court, I naturally don't want you to be wronged." ”

My cousin's words are a little ambiguous, is it because the Shen family has no sister, and my cousin wants to show a friendly sister in the Zhong family?

It is said that several sisters of the Shen family are very strong, and they often oppress this cousin, thinking that the cousin has no sense of superiority in the Shen family.

"Then it's going to bother my cousin." Since her cousin wants to behave, she is naturally willing to be a weak girl.

As they were talking, they had already arrived at the West Courtyard, where Zhong Jinxin and Zhong Huai were there, and Zhong Jinxin was teaching Zhong Huai to draw.

Seeing Shen Mingze come in, Zhong Jinxin was extremely happy.

"Cousin, are you here to congratulate my mother on her birthday?"

After Shen Mingze heard this, he slapped his head, how could he forget this stubble.

Although he was already wailing in his heart, he did not show it on his face.

"What are you doing?"

"Brother Huai said that he wanted to send a pair of words to his mother, and I am guiding him."

"Cousin Huai, come, I'll teach you." As he spoke, he hinted that Ah Xiang, the little servant next to him, went out to prepare a congratulatory gift.

Zhong Jinxiu saw it, and couldn't help but chuckle in her heart.

That Ah Xiang came back soon, and when he came back again, there was an extra gift box in his hand, and at this time, Xiao Shen's also turned around, and Shen Mingze sent the gift box up.

"I wish my aunt eternal youth, health and longevity." As he spoke, he sent the gift box, and Xiao Shen listened to his words and smiled heartily.

"You kid, eternal youth, I'm not an old goblin, it's good if you have this heart."

Saying that, Xiao Shen ordered someone to marry the silver, and gave one to each of their juniors.

Xiao Shen felt embarrassed to let the junior break the bank for no reason.

"I am very happy today that you have a heart. In a short time, you will have a sister-in-law, and when your sister-in-law enters the door, you must be sensible. ”

"I know, sister-in-law is sister-in-law and not a flood beast, aunt, why are you so dignified, in a trance, the eldest brother married a tigress."

"What nonsense, then Nie Qiushuang is the most sensible and polite, but to say that a tigress is also a tigress who knows etiquette."

Everyone laughed, and soon Shen Mingze was about to leave.

Xiao Shen looked at him with reluctance on his face, but if that look seemed to fall on Jinxiu, she didn't know whether to be angry or happy, but she sighed.

"Jinxiu, send your cousin back."

When I touched the box just now, it was heavy, and the style of the box was very precious, and the contents must be expensive.

After all, it's a short hand.

Zhong Jinxiu did not doubt him, and said: "Cousin, I have to go to court tomorrow, so let's go back quickly today." ”

Leaving the West Courtyard, Zhong Jinxiu asked, "Cousin, did the third brother voluntarily stay in Huainan or is it something else?" ”

Shen Mingze said: "Your third brother Bodhisattva has a heart, and when he saw the victims suffering, he couldn't bear it, so he decided to stay and help the victims build their homes." ”

Her third brother is cowardly, cowardly, and unassertive, how could he volunteer to stay and help the victims?

He doesn't even know the sufferings of the world.

"Cousin, do you have something to bring him? My grandfather also has connections in the land of Huainan, if you want to talk, I can do it for you. ”

"No, it's just... Since the third brother wants to stay outside, stay outside, it's always good to experience some days. ”

Shen Mingze bowed his head, of course he wouldn't tell her that Zhong Liang had 'arranged' to stay in Huainan by himself, and there were also his own people in Huainan.

After the famine, Huainan Xiu had to repair, although Zhong Liang was not capable, but his own people could help him.

As for the eldest princess?

He will keep a good watch, and he will definitely not let the eldest princess take advantage of it.
