Chapter 54: To the Palace
Ouyang Huaiyu raised his eyebrows and said in surprise: "I only know that Mrs. Dao, that day's garden party, on the way back to the house, Brother Yun caught up and gave this thing to the third sister." If Madame doesn't know, forget it, just let Yu'er talk nonsense. ”
Liu Shi seemed to suddenly remember something, his eyes were slightly bright, and he darkened, coughed uncomfortably, put the silk handkerchief to his mouth, and said haha: "What should I be, Yu'er originally said this, you don't say I forgot, I saw that Zhixue's girl had no mother, and I began to admit that I was wrong, and I couldn't bear it, Liu'er told me that this step is very compatible with Zhixue's girl, so I asked Brother Yun to take it for transfer."
Forwarding? Ouyang Huaiyu frowned slightly, is this really the case? Did he wronged that girl?
"Madam, I saw that it was getting late, I hurried back to the house, I'm afraid I'm going to worry about Zhiqiu when it's late." Ouyang Huaiyu stood up with a smile: "There is a lot of trouble today, and I still look at Haihan."
"Go back, don't forget everything I told you." He Shunhou said with a tiger face.
"Yes."
Seeing that the carriage was walking away, He Shunhou looked at his daughter-in-law and said in a deep voice: "What's going on with Bu Shao?"
This old man can see that she has deceived the prince? Liu walked back side by side with him: "Brother Yun suddenly caught up with him that day, I just thought he was doing something, who knew that he actually asked others for the color head and gave it to Zhixue's girl."
Stinky boy, I have never seen you so attentive to your mother since I was a child.
"Ridiculous!" He Shunhou flicked his sleeves and frowned: "My mind is used on this, when will I be able to protect my family and defend the country."
"Defending the family and the country is protecting the family and defending the country," this old man was really stubborn, and Liu reasoned with him: "Seeing that our brother is also at the age of marriage, the matchmaker is about to step on the threshold of our house, and he can't look down on it." You're not in a hurry? Now it's easy to have someone to his liking, old man, I can warn you, if you get in the way, I don't have a grandson to hug me, see if I don't clean you up. ”
Snorted coldly, and took Li's mother to the garden.
"Eight poles can't be beaten yet, your son is hot when he shaves his head, but he wants to hug his grandson, dreaming, right?" He Shunhou looked at Liu's angry back, shook his head, and went to find Lord Wang next door to fight crickets with his hands behind his back.
……
"Slow down." Helping Shen Liu down from the carriage, Ouyang Huaiyu led her into the door, and said as he walked: "You haven't been here for a few days, if it weren't for the sisters of the Hou Mansion, I'm afraid that we wouldn't be able to move with the daughter of the Hou Mansion."
Shen Liu looked around, she had been to this palace a few times, and her appearance was no different from before.
Seeing that she ignored his jokes and walked by herself, Ouyang Huaiyu scolded in her heart for being unconscionable: "Sister Liu looks like she went to the front hall first to wait for dinner?" Or am I walking around this yard with you? ”
How familiar are the two of them? Still use him to accompany you? When she was a child, she wanted to play behind him and her brother, but she ate a lot of closed-door soup, and now he seems to be diligent and sensible.
"It's okay, let's go eat first, I'm hungry too." Shen Liu replied.
"Okay, whatever Sister Liu says is what it is." Ouyang Huaiyu instructed Hua Cheng beside him: "Tell the small kitchen." Add a few of the girl's favorite meals. ”
"Yes."
Half an hour later, Shen Liu saw Xia Zhixue again.
She didn't apply powder today, her long ink-like hair was half tied and half draped, and she didn't have any hairpin on her head, and the color of her clothes was plain, which was not eye-catching grass green, embroidered with aqua blue lotus flowers, and she held a good fan in her hand and put it to her mouth, covering what the little maid beside her didn't know what she said, and her eyes were crooked.
"Zhixue." Shen Liu shouted softly.
Xia Zhixue put away the fan, her body stood upright, and a familiar figure came into view: "Miss Liu?"
"I haven't seen her for many days, but Miss Zhixue still looks so good." Shen Liu walked over with a smile.
The two saluted each other, and Xia Zhixue pulled someone to sit down: "It's bumpy on the road," turned slightly sideways: "Lotus, go, cook plum tea for the girl, cool it with ice water, and warm it for the girl."
"Yes."
"It's getting hotter and hotter, and it's going to be hot and dry this summer." Shen Liu took a handkerchief as a fan to fan the wind.
smiled and handed the cool fan in her hand to the flushed person, and took the silk handkerchief in her hand: "Isn't it, I didn't think it was a few days ago, but it's hot to sleep tonight."
"Miss Shen Liu?" Xia Zhiqiu's voice came from the screen.
Shen Liu stood up with a light smile: "Miss Zhiqiu is fine, Miss Zhiqiu is really looking good today."
"Really?" Listening to the praise, Xia Zhiqiu was happy in his heart.
"I see that the three of you are all heavenly beings, but I am the only one who is a mortal." Ouyang Huaiyu laughed and walked in from outside.
Xia Zhiqiu feigned anger and said: "The dragon and phoenix among the princes, I would never dare to compare with the prince."
"Just you can talk." He went to Heshunhou's Mansion today just to think about it, to give Heshunhou, an old stubborn man who is full of only defending the family and the country, to remind him to take good care of his son, don't want to write allegiance to the country all day long, thinking about eyebrow-to-eye with the girl, he never thought that it was Mrs. Yun Ge'er to Xia Zhixue, Ouyang Huaiyu has been angry in his heart for so long.
The four of them sat down, and Xia Zhixue sat in the farthest position from him, bowing her head and not speaking.
sighed secretly in her heart, it must have been him who scared her, and the relationship between the two finally improved, and now it is far away again.
"Zhixue, don't you have an appetite?" Shen Liu observed that she only ate a few cool side dishes around her when she ate, and the others were incommon, and looked at her worriedly.
Xia Zhixue shook her head: "No, thank you Miss Liu for worrying, thinking that the weather is hot, and her appetite is small." It's okay. ”
Listening to what she said, she was light and light, but Ouyang Huaiyu was attentive, and after finishing the meal, Hua Cheng asked the kitchen to cook appetizing hawthorn sour plum tea for her.
"I see that the prince is also very good to you, although he doesn't say it at the banquet, you don't like to eat, he remembers it." Shen Liu picked up the tea bowl and took a sip of tea.
Where is he good for me? A few days ago, I just accepted your brother's step shake and almost strangled me, but today these are just because I am Xia Zhiqiu's sister, and you are still there, just make a show.
lightly picked up the tea bowl: "The prince is kind-hearted, and I am dragging my sister's blessing."
Shen Liu looked at her unhappy, and didn't dare to ask rashly, so she had to nod: "Your sister is also blessed to be able to marry the prince."
Yes, such a blessing has never befallen me since I was a child. followed Xia Zhiqiu to this palace, and almost died several times, the prince's temper was uncertain, and he was worried all day long, where was Xia Zhiqiu's half of the blessing?
"My sister is naturally blessed." Xia Zhixue smiled and put down the tea bowl: "Miss Liu is also blessed, she has such a good brother, and her father and mother love her, which many people can't ask for."
"Zhixue, don't call me Miss Liu, call me Liu'er." Shen Liu took out a box from his arms, with strange lines on it and gilded edges, which was very valuable when he looked at it.
