The fragrance of Su Hexiang slowly spread from the copper-gilt beast's foot incense burner, and the girl's crisp and sweet voice loomed outside the curtain of Qingluan's carved beads: "Is grandmother awake?" Jing'er and I came to say goodbye. ”

Then came the voice of the eldest girl Yuerong with a smile: "Back to Miss Wan's words, the old lady is awake and is combing her hair inside." ”

The girl was very happy: "Grandmother got up so early, I went to serve my grandmother." ”

As he spoke, there was the sound of the bead curtain being opened and tinkling.

The girl flew into the inner room with a Su Hexiang like a flower butterfly, and shouted crisply: "Grandmother! ”

Zhai, the old lady of the Dingguo Marquis Mansion, looked at her granddaughter Gong Wan behind her through the brass mirror with a smile: "Oh, Wan'er, you're here, you come so early every day, can you get up?" ”

Gong Wan took the comb in the hand of the eldest girl Yuecui very naturally, and combed Zhai's hair skillfully: "Filial piety under grandmother's knees, why can't you get up?" ”

Yuecui next to her boasted: "Miss Wan is really filial, come over rain or shine every day, this big winter, ordinary little girls love to lie in the bed for half an hour, our Miss Wan is really worthy of being taught by the old lady herself, knowing etiquette and etiquette, and keeping filial piety." Not to mention, Miss Wan's filial piety to the old lady is really admirable. ”

Gong Wan quietly gave Yuecui a satisfied look.

"But no, I have so many grandchildren, and we are the most filial among them." Yue Cui quietly praised Old Madam Zhai when she said this, and Old Madam Zhai was so amused that her wrinkles were squeezed together with laughter.

From beginning to end, no one paid attention to Gong Jing in the corner, and no one mentioned it.

Because she is a girl in the house, in terms of blood, she is not the granddaughter of the old lady Zhai. The old lady is a person who likes and dislikes on the surface, she doesn't like Gong Jing, and the maids of the entire Shou Anju don't mention Gong Jing intentionally or unintentionally.

Gong Jing only stood aside elegantly and generously, obviously very used to it.

After Gong Wan waited for Mrs. Zhai to wash up, and accompanied Yan to eat, after Mrs. Zhai finished breakfast, it seemed to inadvertently mention something: "I heard that the eldest brother is coming back today." ”

Old Madam Zhai's hand, which was originally holding a handkerchief to wipe her mouth, paused slightly, and her expression became a little complicated.

For the eldest grandson's palace plan, Mrs. Zhai has always been in a complicated mood.

He used to be the pride of the entire family, and since he was a child, he was radiant and chic, and none of the handsome people in the entire capital could compare to him. Old Madam Zhai originally thought that the future of the Gong family would fall on this eldest grandson.

However, in an accident many years ago, her eldest grandson made a mistake and turned his back on the family and ran away, and he was gone for more than ten years. If it weren't for the fact that a few days ago, the emperor decreed that he would return to Beijing to be entitled, I don't know when he would be willing to go home to take a look.

What an unfilial grandson, her poor old lady, is a lot older, and I don't see him doing his filial piety under his knees.

Rao is like this, the eldest grandson has come back from outside, and Mrs. Zhai is not unhappy in her heart.

Old Madam Zhai put down the handkerchief that wiped the corners of her mouth: "Well, Ji'er is willing to come back, it can be seen that she has softened." I'll just say, let's be a big family, how can there be an overnight feud, just sit down with a few brothers and talk about it......"

Gong Wan's sweet smile stiffened on her face for a moment, and then returned to normal, covering her small mouth and smiling: "I'll just say that grandmother is partial to the eldest brother, and when the eldest brother comes back, grandmother will forget Wan'er." ”

Old Madam Zhai was in a good mood and couldn't help but tease: "Wan'er even eats your eldest brother's vinegar." ”

Gong Wan crashed into Mrs. Zhai's arms and coquettishly said: "Wan'er is afraid that her grandmother will forget Wan'er if she has a big brother." Grandmother is not allowed to favor only one eldest brother at that time. ”

"It's good, it's all good, it's all painful." Old Madam Zhai was obviously in a good mood, and she responded with a smile from ear to ear.

Gong Wan said innocently: "Grandmother, my eldest brother used to be the most filial person, but I was still young when he left home, and I heard my nurse say that the prey that my eldest brother hunted when hunting had to be picked by my grandmother first." ”

Speaking of this, Old Madam Zhai was a little faintly proud, and smiled: "No, when your eldest brother was only ten years old at the time, he followed the current saint to participate in the hunt, and shot a snow-white silver fox with an arrow, and your eldest brother brought it to me as if he was offering a treasure with the fox's tail." ”

When it comes to the past, Old Madam Zhai has thousands of words. People are old, and their words are all upside down, Gong Wan is impatient to listen, but at this time, she can't use the excuse of doing homework to escape as usual, she has to forcibly press her temperament, and she has to make a very interested appearance to listen to Mrs. Zhai's words.

Gong Wan gave Gong Jing a look, and Gong Jing took Mrs. Zhai's words with understanding. Although Old Madam Zhai doesn't look at Gong Jing in the third room on weekdays, she is talking about Xingtou at this time, and she can't care whether it is Gong Wan or Gong Jing who answers.

Gong Wan held a handkerchief to block the smile that hooked the corners of her mouth.

Let's say happily, the happier I am now, the more I am full of expectations for her good grandson, and the more disappointed I will be in a while......

After a while, Yuecui, the big girl who went out to serve tea, opened the curtain and said to Mrs. Zhai with great surprise: "Old lady, I heard from the person who said in front of me that the young master's convoy has entered!" ”

Old Madam Zhai sat up slightly for a moment, but she didn't want people to know that she was actually looking forward to her eldest grandson, who she hadn't seen for a long time, to come and visit her, so she pretended not to care and said, "I know, what's there to pass on." That unfilial grandson, I didn't go home for more than ten years, so I didn't want to see him. ”

said that she was unwilling, but in fact, even Gong Wan could see the expectation in Old Madam Zhai's heart. Not to mention the side, just looking at today's dress, which is more grand than in the past, you can get a glimpse of one or two.

Gong Wan also looked happy: "Oh, grandmother, with the filial piety of the eldest brother, I think I will come over to greet you in a while." Grandmother, look at my hair, has it been messy? ”

This seemed to remind Mrs. Zhai, and Mrs. Zhai glanced at Gong Wan: "It's not a mess." Next, he shouted Yuecui with some eagerness, "Yuecui, look at my hair, just after being pounced on by Wan'er's naughty, is it messed up?" ”

Yuecui smiled: "Old lady, your demeanor is the most upright and kind, where is the chaos." ”

Gong Wan answered: "Yes, grandmother, you can wait for the eldest brother to come and say goodbye." When the time comes, the eldest brother will definitely say, is this a grandmother? Why haven't I seen it for ten years, but it's still the same young and good-looking? ”

"You're a girl, you've even choreographed your grandmother." Old Madam Zhai sneered at Gong Wan on her lips, but she was extremely useful to these words, and her brows stretched a little.
