"The side concubine Niangniang wrote a letter to the old lady?" If Zheng Wanli didn't usually come back directly to discuss something with the old lady, why would she suddenly write a letter?

Thrush nodded, "Yes!" The letter was brought back by the side concubine's mother's bridal grandmother, avoiding the crowd to give it to the old lady, no one saw it, the old lady saw it and directly asked the slave to take the brazier to burn it, and the slave and maid only knew that the grandmother came back to send the letter! ”

A letter still has to avoid people, is there something written in the letter that cannot be seen?

Mrs. Zheng Si couldn't help but think of what the old lady said about Xu Shu's age, this was the first time that the old lady mentioned Xu Shu's family affairs, maybe she was bewitched by someone, and now it seems that it must have nothing to do with Zheng Wanli's letter.

Thrush even said such secrets, this is an adult please, Mrs. Zheng Si accepted the favor of Thrush, "Okay, I know!" He plucked a plain gold hairpin on his head and gave it to the thrush, "You are the person next to the old lady, and I don't dare to give you eye-catching jewelry, lest the old lady see the suspicion, you can take this and melt it to make the style you like!" ”

Thrush hesitated and refused to take it, she hadn't confiscated the things of a few ladies and young grandmothers in the family, but this was the first time she had relied on "selling" the old lady in exchange for property, and she was always a little uncomfortable in her heart.

"Take it!" Mrs. Zheng Si forced it into the thrush's hand, "You are not young anymore, and it will be a matter of these two years to let you go, so you have to save some dowry for yourself!" ”

Only then did the thrush nod, "Thank you, Fourth Lady!" ”

"Go back! The old lady can't leave you! ”

The thrush turned around and left, and Jin Ling stepped forward and said, "The slave just saw it...... Seeing the thrush sister, she took the hairpin you gave Madame......"

"You read that right!"

Jin Ling's face was incredulous, "Thrush has never been ...... She's ......."

"When you're older, you'll always have some ideas!" Mrs. Zheng Si smiled lightly, "When you reach your age, if you don't want to stay, you must tell me, so as not to delay you!" ”

Jin Ling's face turned red and she was coquettish, "Madam! Miss Nine has been waiting for you for a long time! ”

"Xiao Jiu?" Mrs. Zheng Si hurriedly went back, "Did you come directly to Puyuxuan?" ”

Xu Shu smiled and nodded, "I always feel that it is a little unusual for the old lady to be so anxious to find her mother, so I came to Puyuxuan and waited for you!" ”

"It's really abnormal!" Mrs. Zheng Si chuckled, "You kid guessed everything!" ”

Xu Shu's brows moved slightly, "Yes...... The Fu family? ”

"Hmm!" Mrs. Zheng Si nodded, "The Fu family entrusted Mrs. Gui to come to the project!" ”

"Lady Gui again?" Xu Shu was slightly surprised, the Gui family is the maiden family of the Fu family's eldest and youngest grandmother, and it is not the turn of his brother and sister-in-law to intervene in Fu Junqian's marriage, Xu Shu thought that the Fu family would entrust other families to come forward! "Last time I came back from the Li Mansion, it was Mrs. Gui who came, and the relationship between the Fu family and the Gui family is very close!"

Mrs. Zheng Si nodded, "The Gui family was also a very remarkable family, when Emperor Taizu, the Gui family had an army of 500,000 troops, and the power leaned towards the government and the opposition for a while, but the descendants enjoyed their successes, and the successors were powerless, so it gradually declined, and now the head of the Gui family leads the idle errands of the four products, and everything depends on the help of the Fu family, so naturally only the orders of the Fu family are listened!" ”

At the end, Mrs. Zheng Si added, "Originally, my mother's Qian family was similar, but later I lost my foothold in the court, so I simply begged to be released, but I was at ease!" "The Qian family's freedom is not only because they are released, but also because the Qian family is outside Beijing, there is no restraint, and they are good at management, and they have accumulated a lot of wealth to really feel at ease.

"Since the Fu family is so generous to let Mrs. Gui come to the door to propose marriage on her behalf, probably I didn't expect my mother to refuse, now Mrs. Gui goes back to face the Fu family, I'm afraid it's a little embarrassing!" Mrs. Zheng Si rejected the Fu family's proposal, and Mrs. Gui did not complete the Fu family's entrustment, but she was afraid that she would be blamed by the Fu family, especially the Gui family was dependent on the Fu family.

"That's also something that can't be helped, you can't be embarrassed just because she doesn't embarrass you, right? You don't want to marry into the Fu family, and you're right, now the rumors about you in the capital have finally dispersed, if we agree, then the rumors will be confirmed, but as soon as we refuse, the rumors will be self-defeating! ”

It is precisely because of this that Xu Shu proposed this at the beginning, and Mrs. Zheng Si agreed, but thinking of Mrs. Gui's attitude just now, Mrs. Zheng Si felt that Mrs. Gui deserved to be blinded by the Fu family, "Just now Mrs. Gui also mentioned the rumors in Beijing, looking at what she meant, she can't wait to put this notoriety on your head, I think she wants you to marry the Fu family with notoriety, but she can't raise her head, so as to be crushed by her daughter!" Phew, when I don't know what she's thinking, I'm just too lazy to reason with her! ”

Xu Shu chuckled, "It's nothing, don't be angry, mother!" ”

"I'm not angry!" Mrs. Zheng Si said again, "But the old lady was very unhappy when she saw Mrs. Gui coming to the door!" The old lady was naturally unhappy, because the old lady was looking at Zheng Wanli and King Qing, and the Fu family was not King Qing's support, so the old lady naturally didn't want to have too much intersection with the Fu family, "But I rejected the Fu family, and the old lady's face got better!" ”

"The old lady is really planning to rely on King Qing now!" After all, the queen has no hope, and it is understandable that the old lady pins her on King Qing for the future of the Zheng family.

"No one can rely on it these days!" Mrs. Zheng Si chuckled, "By the way, if Concubine Zheng has something to do with you recently, don't admit it!" ”

"What's wrong?" Mrs. Zheng Si suddenly said this, and Xu Shu couldn't help but feel that something was about to happen.

"Just now, the old lady suddenly mentioned your family affairs, this is the first time that the old lady mentioned your marriage in front of me! I felt a little weird in my heart, and then the thrush sent me back, I inquired with her, Concubine Zheng wrote a letter to the old lady, or sent it secretly, and didn't let anyone know, although I don't know what was written in the letter, but it's definitely not a good thing to look at this style, you have to guard against her! ”

Xu Shu nodded, Zheng Wanli was holding back her all the time, she was always on guard against her, but Xu Shu was surprised that the thrush would reveal the matter of the old lady, "The thrush would tell her mother this?" ”

"Yes! I just mentioned it tentatively, but I didn't expect the thrush to really say it, and I was surprised! ”

Xu Shu thought for a while and said, "Although the thrush is domineering, she is a person who understands current affairs, since she sells her mother well, she must also have some plans!" ”

Mrs. Zheng Si nodded approvingly, "Although the thrush is majestic when she follows the old lady, but with the old lady's temper, she has suffered a lot of grievances, and now that she is older, the old lady still keeps her by her side, and it is normal to have other thoughts!" ”

Xu Shu understands, thrush is hating to marry!
