"Thank you Duanmu Fourth Girl for telling me." The Chu clan solemnly blessed Duanmu.

She was worried because there had been no news of Zhang Wenche, and now that she heard that Zhang Wenche was not in Jinju Taikang City, she breathed a sigh of relief, relieved, and finally relieved.

The corners of Zhang Lan's lips also curved, revealing a pair of shallow pear vortices on her cheeks, and she also blessed with the Chu family.

Little cousin is so cute! Duanmu Fei looked at Zhang Lan with burning eyes, and couldn't help but feel itchy in her palms, and she really wanted to rub the top of her soft hair.

"Second Mrs. Zhang, Fifth Miss Zhang, the two of you are too outward. In a few days, the imperial court will also send someone to Jinju, and you can bring a letter to Datong City for the two of you to give it to Master Zhang. Duanmu said with a smile.

Chu's eyes widened in surprise.

She thanked her again, and then said, "I'm tired of the girl, I'll write a letter later, and then I'll send someone to deliver it to the girl." Then my little girl and I won't bother the girl anymore today. ”

Today was originally not to be announced, and the Chu family was embarrassed to stay any longer, but since he heard the news of Zhang Wenche, he took his leave.

Duanmu Fei thought that Mrs. Li was still there, so he didn't leave the Chu family mother and daughter.

She stood up and wanted to send them off, but when the words came to her mouth, she remembered one more thing, and changed her words to Zhang Lan: "Fifth Miss Zhang, in a few days, my sister and my cousin Hanxing plan to go to the horse winter hunting, do you want to go with you?" Duanmu looked at Zhang Lan with a smile.

"......" Zhang Lan pursed her lips, and her little face was suddenly a little tangled.

Riding and shooting is too undignified, Zhang Lan intuitively wanted to refuse politely, but thinking that her family had a request just now, Duanmu Fei should go down to find her grandfather to inquire about the news without saying a word, and now it is her turn, but it doesn't seem appropriate to refuse under the pretext, it seems that there is a feeling of "crossing the river and demolishing the bridge".

Duanmu Fei naturally saw the little cousin's entanglement, and secretly snickered in his heart.

Duanmu Fei is the best at seducing her little cousin to take the bait, and a cunning light flashed quickly under her eyes, and she said: "I heard that a few days ago, the son and girl of the Yongwu General's Mansion went to winter hunting, and hunted back a nest of ferrets, a nest of fluffy white dumplings, which is very cute. "Her little cousin is the least resistant to this fluffy ball." Cousin Hanxing said that she was also going to hunt a nest. ”

Ferret! Zhang Lan's eyes lit up immediately, and he nodded without thinking about it: "Okay." ”

The Chu family on the side watched her daughter being fooled away so easily, her expression was subtle, and she said in her heart: My daughter seems to be a little stupid, what should I do......

Duanmu suppressed the corners of her lips, and since she had Zhang Lan's words, she would no longer keep them, and said with a smile: "Second Mrs. Zhang, Fifth Miss Zhang, I'll send you two." ”

After Duanmu Fei sent the mother and daughter to Yimen, he watched the carriage drive out of the corner gate on the west side, and then returned to Zhanqing Courtyard.

Outside, the snow was falling like goose feathers, and it was hazy and chaotic as far as the eye could see, and in a short time, a thin layer of snow had accumulated on the roofs and between the treetops.

As soon as Duanmu Fei entered the hall, she was busy breathing at her reddened little hands, and the green pothos brought her a small hand warmer, "Fourth girl, Mrs. Li and the eldest girl are in the east room." ”

Duanmufei turned around and walked towards the east room with a warm hand stove, and was about to open the curtain, when he heard the conversation between Mrs. Li and Duanmujun on the other side of the curtain.

Duanmu Fei subconsciously stopped.

“…… Sister Jun, if you think about my words carefully, I haven't seen anything in most of my life...... Have you really thought it through? Mrs. Li's solemn voice was slightly hoarse.

When the wind blows, the flowers and trees outside the house "rustle".

The window of the eastern room was half open, and occasionally flakes of snow drifted into the room from the window, and fell on the back of Mrs. Li's hand and turned into droplets, and the cold feeling was like an ice needle piercing her heart.

Young couples are high-spirited, affectionate and sweet, and no one can leave anyone, but this kind of sweetness is often only a few years, and the husband and wife must finally turn that strong affection into family affection in order to last for a long time.

"Grandmother, I've thought it through." Duanmujun looked directly at Mrs. Li without evasion, and said categorically.

She smiled slightly, her smile was gentle and bright, like a red plum blooming outside the window, delicate and beautiful.

"......" Mrs. Li had already guessed that Duanmujun would say this, but when she heard it with her own ears, she still couldn't help but tighten her heart.

She has already persuaded all those who should be persuaded, and she has also said all the shortcomings that should be analyzed.

Mrs. Li didn't know what else she could say.

Of course, Duanmujun knew that Mrs. Li was well-intentioned, and said open-mindedly: "Grandmother, I didn't want to get married, I just wanted to raise my sister, so I set up a female household and live by myself." Now I want to be with Gongzi Cen, just because I like him, that's all. ”

Speaking of Cen Yin, Duanmujun's eyes lit up like jewels, overflowing with light, and Mrs. Li's throat seemed to be pinched, and the thousand words in her heart turned into a helpless sigh.

Duanmu Jun affectionately grabbed one of Mrs. Li's hands, held it tightly, and said with a straight face: "Grandmother, I have thought about what you just said...... But so what?! Life is in the world, but only a few decades, why should I care about what others say, why do I have to force myself for others! ”

What if you have children, and what about being pointed at and saying a few words?!

Life is not perfect, and it is enough to be able to grow old with his son!

At this moment, there was a sound of the curtain, and Duanmu Fei opened the curtain himself and entered the east room, leaving the pothos in the hall outside.

Mrs. Li and Duanmujun both looked at Duanmufei, Duanmufei carried the stove, walked to the other side of Mrs. Li and sat down, and asked with a smile: "Grandmother, are you talking about Gongzi Cen?" ”

Meeting the innocent eyes of the little girl, Mrs. Li originally wanted to be vague, but when the words came to her mouth, she changed her mind again.

The two sisters depend on each other for their lives, and they have always had a good relationship, Duanmujun can't listen to the persuasion of others, maybe she can listen to her sister's persuasion.

"Sister Scarlet, your sister is in love with Mr. Cen, what do you think?" Mrs. Li looked at Duanmu Fei expectantly, hoping that the little girl could help persuade her.

Duanmu blinked and said naturally: "Master Cen is very good!" ”

“……”

Mrs. Li opened her eyes slightly, almost doubting that this innocent little girl would not understand what she meant at all.

Duanmu continued with a smile: "Gongzi Cen also likes his sister, and the last time I asked him, he nodded!" ”

"......" Mrs. Li looked at Duanmu Fei dumbfounded. This little girl already knows her sister's intentions? And she still ......

Mrs. Duanmu Fei Mrs. Li looked at each other, crooked her little face, and asked, "Does grandmother think that there is something wrong with Master Cen?" ”

Mrs. Li was still silent, her heart was complicated, and she really couldn't say what shortcomings Cen Yin had.

Cen Yin is really good to these two girls, but no matter how good he is, his identity is the biggest shortcoming, and this one shortcoming is enough to overwhelm other advantages.

Mrs. Li looked at the sisters back and forth, but she didn't say the sentence in her heart after all.

The room was quiet, and the atmosphere was a little strange.

Duanmu scarlet ate her heart beautifully, and she didn't seem to feel that she had thrown out any amazing words at all.

After a while, Mrs. Li sighed leisurely, stopped persuading, and said, "Sister Jun, your grandfather also knows about this...... He asked me just now. Even Mrs. Li didn't know if she was saying this to remind Duanmu Jun or scare her.

However, Duanmujun's reaction was completely unexpected by Mrs. Li.

She still smiled slightly, without the slightest panic in her expression, and was calm.

She liked Cen Yin's affairs, and she never wanted to hide it from anyone, whether it was her grandmother, sister, or grandfather. Grandfather will know sooner or later.

"......" Mrs. Li's mouth opened and closed, and this time, she was really speechless.

"Grandmother," Duanmu took Mrs. Li's arm, leaned his head on her shoulder affectionately, and said coquettishly, "I'm eighteen years old, I'm not a child anymore, I really know what I'm doing." ”

Duanmujun is steady, tenacious, crisp and bright on weekdays, with the style of an eldest sister, it is rare to see her delicate appearance as a little daughter, and Mrs. Li's heart is soft, but her chest is still stuffy, and she is almost out of breath.

One, two, three......

The room was quiet for a while, and Mrs. Li asked with difficulty, "Sister Jun, are you ...... Have you already agreed with Lord Cen Duke? ”

Cen Yin can lean towards the government and the opposition, and make all the civil and military officials obedient, his scheming and means can be seen, if Cen Yin has a heart, how can a little girl like Duanmujun who is raised in a deep boudoir be his opponent!

Duanmu bit his lower lip, and a faint flush appeared on Ruyu's cheeks, with a point of surprise, two points of expectation, and three points of firmness.

"Cen Gongzi is still avoiding me, but...... I can't hide for long! As she spoke, she hooked her lips and smiled, her smile as bright as the rising sun.

What a girl! Mrs. Li was speechless again, and her heart was mixed, and after a while, she eased up a little.

Cen Yin should really like their sister, so he avoided her......

Mrs. Li's eyes flickered brightly and secretly, and her heart was confused.

At this time, Duanmufei on the side finished eating a piece of dim sum and interjected and asked: "Grandmother, will you go back to Minzhou for the Chinese New Year this year?" "If I don't leave, I'm afraid I won't be able to return to Minzhou before the year.

"I sent a letter to Minzhou last month, and Brother You and I won't go back." Mrs. Li couldn't put down the wooden strings, and decided to stay in the capital for the New Year.

Besides, next year, maybe Li Tingyou and the fourth duke will host a wedding, even if the princess's family affairs are handled by the Ministry of Etiquette and the Inner Court Division, there must always be an elder in the capital.

Duanmujun and Duanmufei were happy, the sisters glanced at each other with a smile, and Duanmujun couldn't wait to say: "Grandmother, when the Chinese New Year comes, Zhen Zhen and I will go to Xiangyun Lane to accompany you." ”

Duanmu Fei nodded frequently, "Sister, let's just go and stay with my grandmother for a few days." ”

Mrs. Li looked at Duanmuxuan, and then at Duanmujun, her eyes fell on the bright smile on Duanmujun's lips, and she always felt that her heart was not very steady.

At this moment, Mama Zhang came in and asked the two girls if they wanted to set up a meal.

Originally, the banquet was placed in the Chaohui Hall, but because Duanmuxian went out again temporarily, there were only female dependents anyway, so he simply transferred the banquet to Zhanqing Courtyard.

After lunch, Mrs. Li talked to the sisters in the Zhanqing courtyard for a while, and when she saw the snow falling outside, she simply left early.

The sisters themselves went to the gate of the instrument to see her into the carriage, and a thin layer of snow had accumulated on the ground, and the streets outside were much quieter than in the morning.

Mrs. Li sat in the carriage, looking stunned, thinking about Duanmujun for a while, thinking about her deceased daughter for a while, and thinking about the scene when her daughter said to herself that she must marry her son-in-law Duanmulang......

In a trance, she seemed to see the figures of her daughter and her eldest granddaughter overlapping together.

Ay!

Mrs. Li raised her hand and rubbed the back of her neck, her eyes deep and complex.

If the daughter hadn't married her son-in-law, she wouldn't have stayed in the war-torn north, so why didn't the couple die young!

Thinking of her deceased daughter, Mrs. Li was heartbroken, and she could only tell herself that at least her daughter was happy every day when she was alive...... So Sister Jun?!

Maybe, she didn't care about the happiness she thought of, Sister Jun.

However, the path chosen by Sister Jun is too difficult......

At this moment, the carriage suddenly slowed down and avoided the side of the street, and Mrs. Li came back to her senses and lifted the curtain on one side of the carriage with one hand to look out.

On the wide street, other carriages and pedestrians also avoided both sides of the street, and their faces were mostly a little apprehensive. The originally noisy street suddenly became a lot quieter, and the passers-by were silent one by one.

"Stepping on ......"

At the front of the street, there was a messy sound of horses' hooves, getting closer and closer.

Mrs. Li subconsciously followed the prestige.

On the street, the snow was falling, and a beautiful young man wearing a dark cloak rode a horse, followed by more than a dozen Dongchang fans wearing pointed hats and brown clothes, and the momentum was impressive.

It's Cen Yin!

Mrs. Li's eyes fell on Cen Yin, who was riding on a sturdy white horse, and the dark cloak on his body was blown up by the cold wind, and the hunting sound.

The handsome face and noble bearing are just like the characters who come out of the painting, but he exudes a cold and charming temperament around him, which makes people almost dare not look at it directly.

Mrs. Li sighed secretly in her heart, only in terms of appearance and bearing, Cen Yin is really first-class, and people can't find faults.

At this time, Cen Yin rode by the carriage, his eyes inadvertently swept towards Mrs. Li's side, and he immediately recognized that this was the carriage of the Li family.

Cen Yin's eyes condensed slightly, and she couldn't help but think of Duanmujun, thinking of the last time she was in the palace, she asked him if he was ......

That day, she seemed to want to say something to him......

Bang bang!

Cen Yin's heartbeat couldn't help but quicken, and he glanced at Mrs. Li's carriage twice, only to find that the old woman in the carriage suddenly collapsed softly.

"Phew!" Cen Yin pulled the horse rope and slowed down the horse's speed, then turned the horse's head slightly and headed towards the Li family's carriage.

Although the groom of the Li family didn't know Cen Yin, he knew that the people behind him were all Dongchang fans. Seeing Cen Yin coming towards him, the groom was frightened and turned pale.

The other passers-by and horses waiting on the side were also frightened, and they all looked at Cen Yin's direction blankly, not knowing what was going on, some people secretly exchanged glances, some people hurried away while Dongchang didn't pay attention, and some people waited curiously to see the excitement......

The groom of the Li family swallowed his saliva with difficulty, and said hard: "Little ...... The villain belongs to the Li family, and in the carriage is my wife......"

In the middle of the sentence, the groom was interrupted by a panicked cry from the carriage:

"Mrs. Tai! Mrs. ......"

The woman's voice grew louder and more poignant.

Cen Yin turned over and dismounted without thinking, and directly lifted the curtain of the carriage.

In the carriage, Mrs. Li collapsed softly on the bench, and the grandmother wearing a rust-colored gown on the side was leaning over to check Mrs. Li's condition, shouting "Mrs. Tai".

As the curtain was raised, the carriage was much brighter, and a cold wind with a little snowflakes blew in.

Mama turned her head to look at Cen Yin, and when she saw him enter the carriage, she was startled, and asked, "...... are you?"

She wanted to ask Cen Yin who it was, but the next moment she saw Dongchang Fanzi outside the carriage, and she was so frightened that the rest of the words choked in her throat.

Cen Yin bent down and approached Mrs. Li to take a look, Mrs. Li's eyes were tightly closed, her face was slightly pale, and from her slightly fluttering nose, it could be determined that she had just fainted, and she was still angry.

"What old ailments does Mrs. Li have?" Cen Yin hurriedly asked.

Mama listened to Cen Yin's words and revealed the identity of the master, thinking that the other party might be an acquaintance of the Li family, and hurriedly replied: "The old lady has been suffering from paralysis for many years, and when she has an attack, her neck and hands are painful and numb, and when it is serious, she will faint. ”

"Is there any medicine?" Cen Yin frowned slightly, and then asked.

Mama recovered from the fright, nodded hurriedly, and said, "Yes, yes." In a panic, she took out a pill the size of a little finger from the purse on her waist, and then leaned over to feed the pill to Mrs. Li's mouth.

After calming down, Mama's movements were much sharper, and with a stroke of Mrs. Li's chin, the pill grunted down her throat.

"Mrs. Tai." Mama wiped the cold sweat on Mrs. Li's forehead with a handkerchief, and called twice in succession, but Mrs. Li remained motionless and her eyes were closed.

"Little Scorpion, let someone go and ask for a doctor." Cen Yin got out of the carriage and instructed the little scorpion.

"Yes, Overseer." The little scorpion hurriedly asked a Dongchang fan to ask for a doctor, and then said again, "Overseer, there is a medical hall in front, why don't you invite a doctor to come over and show Mrs. Li first?" ”

Cen Yin nodded in response, and the little scorpion personally ran to the Rejuvenation Hall not far away to ask for a doctor.

Immediately afterwards, Cen Yin sent someone to Duanmu's house to report the news, and asked someone to call Li Tingyou.

Looking at the Dongchang fans outside the carriage, Mama was very complicated in her heart, worried, afraid, grateful, and could only thank Cen Yin again and again.

At first, those Dongchang fans didn't understand that their overseer would take care of such idle things, and when they heard Duanmu Mansion, they suddenly realized.

It turns out that this Mrs. Li is the grandmother of the fourth girl of Duanmu!

No wonder! The Overseer was so kind to the four girls. Those Dongchang fans exchanged glances without a trace.

There is no need for Cen Yin to order again, they have already cleared the idlers around them very cleverly, how dare ordinary people go to the East Factory, and after a while, the streets became empty, only the Li family's carriage and the people of the East Factory remained.

The wind was heavier and the snow was falling harder.

Soon, the little scorpion invited a doctor from the Rejuvenation Hall, who looked to be in his sixties, with gray hair, and it was obviously a snowy day in the lunar month, but his forehead was covered with beads of sweat, and his legs were shaking as if he was sifting chaff.

"Man in the carriage." The little scorpion raised his hand and pointed into the carriage.

"Yes, sir." The old doctor trembled and replied, panting and getting into the carriage, looking terrified.

He wiped the cold sweat from the corners of his forehead with his cuffs, feeling that he was really unlucky today, why was he targeted by Dongchang!

Mama said eagerly to the old doctor: "Doctor, please show my wife, my wife has suffered from paralysis for many years......"

Mama told Mrs. Li about Mrs. Li's illness again to the old doctor, who first checked Mrs. Li's pulse, and then took out a silver needle bag and took out a silver needle from it.

He took two deep breaths in a row, and his hand was stabilized, and he quickly pricked several stitches in the acupoints such as Jue Gu, Houxi, Dazhu, and Fengfu......

Soon, Mrs. Li let out a low moan, and her eyelids twitched slightly.

"Mrs. Tai! Mrs. Tai! ”

Mama naturally noticed it and shouted excitedly, and finally let go of half of her hanging heart.

Mrs. Li's eyelashes twitched twice, her brows moved slightly, and then she slowly opened her eyes, her eyes were still a little dazed, as if she didn't know where she was......

Mrs. Li blinked, wanted to get up, and Mama hurriedly helped her to sit up.

Mrs. Li still felt a little dizzy, raised her hand and stroked her forehead, and in the next moment, a beautiful face came into view.

Outside the carriage, Cen Yin also looked at her, and the two were not separated by more than a foot.

Mrs. Li's eyes widened instantly, almost to the extreme.

This was the first time that Mrs. Li had looked at Cen Yin so closely, and she couldn't help but think of everything in Duanmu Mansion today, and she was a little stunned for a while.

Seeing that Mrs. Li's expression was wrong, Mama thought that she was unwell, so she called out nervously again: "Mrs. Tai, what do you think?" You've just fainted......"

"I'm fine." Mrs. Li came back to her senses and felt that she was still a little weak. She rubbed one side of her temple, and then remembered what happened before she fainted, but how could Cen Yin be here......

As if seeing Mrs. Li's doubts, Mama told her a rough story about what happened to Fang Cai, including Cen Yin who asked him to invite a doctor, and he sent someone to invite Li Tingyou......

Mrs. Li listened, looking at Cen Yin's expression even more complicated.

If she went to Beijing and asked Cen Yin what kind of person she was, she could guess that he was authoritarian, arbitrary, ruthless, and ruthless...... Cen Yin is not a nosy person, so the reason why he "treats him differently" is also obvious, because of her eldest granddaughter - Duanmu Jun.

Mrs. Li's ears rang Duanmujun's words again: "Gongzi Cen is still avoiding me, but ...... I can't hide for long! ”

It seems that Cen Yin is really ...... to Sister Jun

Mrs. Li accidentally flashed her mind again, and it took a while before she came back to her senses and owed to Cen Yin outside the carriage: "Thank you, Lord Cen Governor." ”

Cen Yin just nodded slightly, pursed his thin lips, and didn't say a word.

The little scorpion held an umbrella for Cen Yin on the side, and the oil-paper umbrella cast a faint shadow on Cen Yin's face, making his narrow eyes deeper and deeper, as deep as the sea, with a kind of coldness that rejects people thousands of miles away, making people dare not get close to him and dare not talk to him.

The coachman outside the carriage sat almost motionless on the board of the carriage, silent.

I don't know how long it took, there was another sound of horses' hooves outside, coming this way, and a Dongchang fan outside shouted: "The fourth girl is here!" ”

Duanmujun and Duanmufei arrived on horseback, and the sisters were in a hurry, their cheeks were covered with a layer of red glow, and they were out of breath.

"Young Master Cen!" Duanmu Jun rushed in front and stopped the horse first, his expression couldn't hide his anxiety, "How is my grandmother?" ”

"She's awake, it should be fine." Cen Yin turned sideways slightly, and his voice softened unconsciously, allowing Duanmu Jun to see Mrs. Li in the carriage.

Duanmu Jun didn't feel that Cen Yin's attitude was different, but Mrs. Li clearly saw the difference, and looked at Cen Yin, who was originally covered with a layer of ice, as if spring rain turned into snow, and became softer.
