Chapter 57: Grandma
Shao Zexuan's marriage was scheduled for the sixth day of October, and Shao Zhiqiu recalled that the county lord of Huairou was a very gentle but very assertive person.
This is very good, Shao Zhiqiu thought with relief, she tried her best to preserve this marriage, but she didn't want it to be just because of Prince Lian's deterrence in the end, and she hoped that Shao Zexuan could be really happy.
So when Shao Zhiqiu was fine, he walked around Shao Zhinuo's yard a few more times.
"Second sister, have you spoken to the county lord of Huairou?" Shao Zhiqiu asked.
"A few times, but not much, I have met at a few banquets, and this time I said a few more words at my grandfather's birthday banquet." Shao Zhinuo played with her new coral bracelet and replied nonchalantly.
"She is the lord of the county, and she has a destiny when she marries, even her mother is afraid that she will be polite to her." Shao Zhiqiu said tentatively.
Shao Zhinuo stopped what he was doing and looked at Shao Zhiqiu, "That's right." But so what? Mothers are always elders! ”
"Hmm...... We are not familiar with the county lord of Huairou, the eldest brother is definitely even less familiar, the ordinary girl is fine, but she is the county lord, if she marries, we will know her temperament, isn't it very passive? ”
"You have a point, but what can we do? Don't give up any ideas! That's our sister-in-law! ”
"It's because it's my sister-in-law! I thought, since we don't know each other, why don't we just move around more? But I'm a little girl, and I'm soft-spoken, I'm afraid she'll feel light. Shao Zhiqiu said pitifully.
Shao Zhinuo listened and looked at Shao Zhiqiu seriously, this was not like a word that came out of her mouth.
"What do you want me to do?"
"The second sister just needs to send some fun and delicious past, so that the future sister-in-law has not passed the door, she will know our kindness first, and the second sister of the mother's temperament knows best, our family will not do those things that think about the bride, so that the sister-in-law will treat us kindly after marrying, and give the mother peace of mind!"
No matter how Shao Zhinuo looked at it, he didn't think that this would be what Shao Zhiqiu could say, but it was Shao Zhiqiu who ran to say it.
"Do you really think so?" Shao Zhinuo asked uncertainly.
"Hmm!" Shao Zhiqiu found that as long as a person decides to be tolerant of another person, then what she says and does, she will be forgiven, and even you will unconsciously look for advantages from that person and persuade yourself to continue to be tolerant of her.
"You have a point... Shao Zhinuo also pondered. "Then you say, what should I send her?"
"We don't have to do what we like, as long as we show goodwill, right?" Shao Zhiqiu said.
Shao Zhinuo nodded approvingly. So the two of them discussed what to send, and Shao Zhiqiu accompanied the selection of things before returning to his yard.
What Shao Zhiqiu said to Shao Zhinuo was true, but there was one point, Shao Zhiqiu didn't say that if her sister-in-law entered the door and could be in the same room with the prince, she would be able to avoid a lot of calculations, and she couldn't leave a crack for Mrs. Xiao to drill.
Not to mention what the county lord of Huairou thought when he received the things sent by Shao Zhinuo, it didn't take long for Shao Zhinuo to receive a return gift from the county lord of Huairou, and there were also those for Shao Zhiqing and Shao Zhiqiu, although they were not very precious, but they were all practical and intimate.
Shao Zhiqiu breathed a sigh of relief, as long as he was able to carry it, then everything was easy to say.
Shao Zhiqiu didn't pay too much attention to the affairs of the Wenhua Poetry Club, no matter how she said it, it would not be her turn to be an eight-year-old concubine in the limelight. It's just that the transcendent status of the Guogong Mansion is there, and the Mu family began to buy new clothes and jewelry for Shao Zhinuo and Shao Zhiqiu early, saying that they don't want the two of them to be in the limelight, but they can't lose their reputation.
Although Shao Zhiqiu doesn't care about this, there is no reason why she doesn't want a good reputation, so she has to touch herself in the dark. So he dressed himself up by sending things to the courtyard at the end of the three days and two ends of the Mu family.
The Mandarin Poetry Club has not yet arrived, and Aunt An's sacrifice day has arrived first.
On this day, Shao Zhiqiu locked herself in the house, and quietly copied the Buddhist scriptures all morning, until it was time for lunch, she didn't come out, but looking at the food sent in by Zhiyi, Shao Zhiqiu had no appetite at all.
She stood in the courtyard and looked towards Aunt An's former courtyard, although she couldn't see anything.
No one has touched the courtyard so far, and Mu Shi ordered people to clean it from time to time.
Shao Zhiqiu suddenly remembered her maternal grandmother, the old lady who gave birth to her mother, and now she is still living in the Zhuangzi of the Yongding Marquis Mansion.
Shao Zhiqiu didn't remember that place anymore, she suddenly wanted to go to see her grandmother, to see the person who gave birth to her mother.
Shao Zhiqiu changed into plain clothes and went to Mu's courtyard.
"You didn't come to say hello in the morning, I thought you were not feeling well, so Moyu went to see you a few times, and they all said that you refused to go out of the house in the morning, do you miss your mother?"
Mu never called He An an aunt, which made Shao Zhiqiu very grateful.
"Mother, I want to see my grandmother." Shao Zhiqiu said softly.
Mu Shi understood her words and gently straightened her sideburns.
"Go ahead, I've been hiding your mother's affairs from your grandmother, and I didn't dare to tell her, your grandmother is old, and you shouldn't say the wrong thing, you know?"
"Well, don't worry, mother!" Shao Zhiqiu suddenly threw herself into Mu Shi's arms, hugged Mu Shi tightly, and let go after a while.
"I'll let Rongxing send you there." Rong Xing is the son of Mama Rong, and Mu's dowry is in his hands, and he is very trusted by Mu's.
Shao Zhiqiu didn't say a word quietly along the way, and Zhiyi didn't know how to comfort her master, because she never cried, never said her sadness.
Rong Xing often came to Zhuangzi to deliver things to the old lady, and when the old lady saw Rong Xing driving the carriage over, she happily put down the dustpan in her hand and greeted her with a smile.
When Shao Zhiqiu got out of the car, the old lady looked at her with some excitement, but she didn't come forward to ask.
"Old lady, the fourth girl has come to see you." Rong Xing introduced. Before this, Shao Zhiqiu had never seen this grandmother. Now it seems that he is such a kind old man.
"Are you Qiu'er?"
"Grandmother!" Shao Zhiqiu gave the old lady a big gift.
"Don't be right! Good boy! "It stands to reason that Shao Zhiqiu's grandmother shouldn't be called, her grandmother should be Mu's mother.
"Mother knows, and she doesn't blame." Shao Zhiqiu said.
"Or may I call you Grandma?"
"Good! Good! All good! "The old lady is old, and her ears are a little less sensitive, so she can only hear Shao Zhiqiu when she speaks loudly on purpose.
"How are you doing? Why didn't she come over and let you be a little girl running around? ”
"My mother is very good, but there is something in the house, she wants to help her mother Zhang Luo, and she can't leave." Shao Zhiqiu tried her best to make her voice normal, so as not to let the old lady hear the tremor in her throat.
