Zhu Rong didn't want to be targeted by her father, and asked her and Citron to move on, but he bypassed it from elsewhere.

When Fuyi met the eldest master, they were just polite to each other, and they separated after a few words of greeting.

When the citron saw that the eldest lord had gone away, he whispered to the young lady: "The eldest lord does not agree to the matter between you and the son?" Why do you want to avoid it? ”

Fu Yi said indifferently: "If you look at the relationship between the eldest lord and the eldest lady, you can understand." ”

Citron doesn't understand it very well, but it doesn't matter if she doesn't understand, as long as Fu Yi understands it in her heart, Zhu Rong understands it in her heart, it's better than anything else.

In the inner courtyard, Zhu Chengqian came to see his mother, and the old lady didn't want the children to be restrained in front of him, so she took Yingzhi and Minzhi away.

Zhu Chengqian said: "She entered the palace today, I don't know what the queen said, after coming back, she washed her face with tears, and even I ignored it, and now she is tired of crying, and she is alone in the corner of the bed, I don't know if she slept or what." ”

"Guess what?" The old lady asked.

"The matter of buying and selling handmaidens has passed, and the emperor has sentenced it." Zhu Chengqian said, "The queen shouldn't keep an eye on this matter, and the only thing left in this world that can poke her heart and liver is Rong'er." ”

The old lady looked at her son and said solemnly: "The queen is naturally looking forward to the stability and prosperity of the family, and can produce a young man to support the prince, but Pingluo is already on the side of the four princes, and now Rong'er is valued by the emperor, and he has his own ability and ability, so he is an excellent young man in the eyes of the queen." ”

Zhu Chengqian said: "My son also thinks that the queen should have mentioned the matter of Rong'er to her. ”

The old lady smiled bitterly: "Even my own sister doesn't help me, don't blame your eldest lady for being sad, if it were me, I wouldn't be able to swallow this breath." In this matter, you and I are sorry for her, but we have also preserved her dignity as much as possible. I don't blame her for having to twist this breath, as a woman, I admire her more, but life has to go on, just with one breath, you can't. ”

"Yes." Zhu Chengqian said, "My son will persuade her well." ”

"Let's put it mildly." The old lady said, "Look at Ping Jue, his body and bones are not a problem after all, take care of it well, and he will not worry about starting a family in the future, but it will be even more difficult for him to support this family." Pingluo Pingli is a good child, but can you agree, can your eldest lady agree? In that case, why didn't she swallow this breath, Rong'er called her mother for twenty years, why couldn't she hear it in her heart. ”

Zhu Chengqian said: "It seems that Rong'er recognizes his ancestors and returns to his ancestors, just now, after his son thinks that this matter is consummated, he will marry Rong'er." When the time comes, the mother will also be invited to come forward and start the happy event for her grandson. ”

The old lady said: "This is natural, but which girl you fancie, you have to tell me to look at it first, and I want to make the decision about Rong'er's marriage." ”

Zhu Chengqian's thick eyebrows trembled slightly, and he bowed down and said, "Yes, naturally it is the mother who decides." ”

In this room, the sisters hid in Yunzhi's room, and after watching the eldest master leave, Yingzhi and Minzhi breathed a sigh of relief.

The fourth girl said timidly: "I thought that my father was going to take us back, and I was scared to death." ”

Yun Zhi disagreed: "Uncle is not so idle, you can live here tonight with peace of mind, and we will sleep in a bed." ”

After the girls washed and changed, they lay down refreshingly, and Yunzhi shook the fan for the sisters to coax them to sleep.

The fourth girl asked, "Has my sister ever lied to my second uncle?" ”

Yun Zhi shook his head and said: "I have been by my grandmother's side since I was a child, so naturally I am not close to my father, not to mention that my father is more terrible than my uncle, I don't dare to look at him at all." ”

Yingzhi said enviously: "That day, I saw Yanran coquettish to the eldest brother, and we were all envious, no matter how she made a fuss, the eldest brother just coaxed, Yanran just wanted the stars in the sky, and the eldest brother would take it off for her." ”

Minzhi said: "Don't talk about Yanran, the fifth sister and the third aunt have always been affectionate, but the aunts haven't even hugged us, and the mother is very impatient when she sees us." ”

Yunzhi was very distressed, squeezed to the middle, hugged the two younger sisters left and right, and said: "We can't ask for the things of the previous generation, but our brothers and sisters are good." Otherwise, you go and try to be coquettish to the eldest brother and the third brother, and they will definitely pick the moon and stars for you, this is our blessing. ”

Min Zhi said with a smile: "But if the second sister goes to the eldest brother and the third brother to ask for the stars in the sky, she will definitely be scolded severely." ”

"Yes, the least painful person in this house is me." Yun Zhi glanced at his sisters, and reached out to tickle them, "Even you are here to bully me." ”

The old lady was preparing to go to sleep, and she vaguely heard the girl's laughter, and knew that their sisters were doing well, and she was very relieved.

Mama Rui said: "In the past few years, it is time to make the girls more affectionate, the third girl and the fourth girl are not treated in Xinghua Hall, it is better for you to take it and let their sisters be in one place before the second girl gets married." ”

The old lady sighed: "This is all a trivial matter, the most important thing at the moment is that the marriage between Rong'er and Yunzhi has not yet been settled, I am not in a hurry for them to get married, I am afraid of their parents, one by one, they are lustful and push the children into the fire pit." ”

Mama Rui was also afraid: "The fourth son was going to fight that day, but he scared the slave maid, and he wanted to run another child like the second brother, and everyone in the world would see our jokes." The third son and the second girl are also very temperamental, but don't be forced to be anxious one day. ”

The old lady rubbed her eyebrows and said, "Tell me about this capital family, there are good people who are worthy of rhyme, my eyes are really dark, and I can't think of anything good." ”

In the dead of night, the maids on duty in Xinghua Hall did not dare to fan the wind and drive away the heat, for fear that the slightest movement would anger the eldest lady, fortunately, the eldest master did not go elsewhere tonight, but the people outside did not know what was going on in the house.

Mother Wang can't bear the heat in the end, she ran to the palace today, came back and tossed for a long time, and it was not good to come back from the old lady's house.

At this moment, in the bedroom, the eldest lady, whose heart was like ashes, struggled to get up from the bed, and was just about to open her mouth to call someone, when she suddenly saw a man lying on the couch.

She thought that Zhu Chengqian was impatient, and had already gone to the Liu family or Chu family's house, or stayed in the study, but she didn't expect that he would be here all night.

"Are you awake? Do you want to call someone? Zhu Chengqian heard the movement and sat up.

The eldest lady took a few steps back and asked, "You are not asleep?" ”

Zhu Chengqian smiled: "How can you sleep in this place, not to mention that I'm still worried about you." ”

"Don't come to these coaxing words." The eldest lady was covered with sweat and tears, and she knew that she was extremely embarrassed, and she didn't want to light the lamp so that her husband could see her appearance, so she said, "You go and sit outside, and you can talk after I have washed up." ”

Zhu Chengqian said: "What's in the way, I was very sick the year before last, and you served me day and night, have you ever disliked it?" ”

The eldest lady sneered: "It's hard for you to remember me." ”

Zhu Chengqian said: "No matter what, I didn't provoke you today, naturally you have the temper to rush at me, and I should bear it, but I have to let me know why, right?" ”

As soon as she mentioned the events of the day, the eldest lady was sad, and her body fell and sat on the side: "My sister and she, force me to ......"

As expected by Zhu Chengqian and the old lady, the queen asked her sister to put down her pride and pride, so that Zhu Rong could successfully recognize her ancestors and return to her ancestors, and inherit the title in the future and become the prince's powerful arm.

Obviously, except for the eldest lady who can't swallow the breath in her heart, such an arrangement is the result that everyone is looking forward to.

"In the end, whether it's this family, my mother's family, even my dearest sister, they all treat me the same." The eldest lady said sadly, "No one cares about me, my sadness, my unwillingness, have become hypocrisy in your eyes." ”

"We're all old." Zhu Chengqian said gently, "If I go ahead of you, no matter whether Rong'er denies his ancestors and returns to his ancestors, no matter whether he inherits the family business or not, I will entrust you to him." He called your mother for twenty years, can't you see through this child's heart? ”

"He's just the glory and wealth of the Tu family, will he really treat me as a mother?" The eldest lady said angrily, "You don't have to coax me with flattering words, it's been twenty years, Zhu Chengqian, why do you think I can't swallow this breath?" ”

Zhu Chengqian said good-naturedly: "If you shout again, everyone outside will hear it." ”

The eldest lady looked out the window, and there was a figure swaying slightly, it must be those little maids on night duty, and they didn't dare to go out and talk nonsense.

"Do you want to turn your face with the queen?" Zhu Chengqian persuaded, "After so many years, I have worked hard for the prince and the queen, but now I want to abandon them?" ”

The eldest lady turned around, and in the night, the husband and wife couldn't see each other's faces and expressions clearly, and she suddenly said, "Unless, Zhu Rong was born to me." ”

"What do you mean?" Zhu Chengqian was puzzled, "You gave birth?" ”

The eldest lady repeated: "It is okay for him to recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors, but he must be born to me." ”
