Chapter 181: Shameful nephew

When the father and son of the Qu family arrived in the front hall, they were deeply surprised to see Gonggong Li sitting in the living room, although this father-in-law Xu was not valued by the emperor, he was also a big celebrity around the emperor, why did he come in person?

"I don't know if Gonggong Li has arrived, he has missed the distance, and I hope to forgive my sins." Qu Zhiyi hugged his fists and saluted to express his apologies.

Why is this father and son here, and he just told the housekeeper that he obviously invited the distinguished guests from Qingcheng County to come to the living room: "Dare to ask Qu County Ling if he came back alone?" The emperor heard that the capable little girl of the Mai family was here, and he specially ordered the miscellaneous family to summon the two. ”

The emperor wants to see Xiao Huan! How did his old man know that Xiao Huan had come to the capital, Qu Zhiyi saw that his son had not come back to his senses, so he hurriedly asked people to go to his yard to spread the word, and asked Mai Xiaohuan to freshen up and come over quickly.

Hearing that the emperor summoned him, Mai Xiaohuan did not regain his former composure, and entered the palace to face the saint! She thought she would never have this experience in her life! The Lin family hurriedly helped Mai Xiaohuan rummage through suitable clothes, not to mention that she really had a very gorgeous skirt in her baggage, which Mai Xiaohuan kept to wear at Qu Hao's wedding.

"Mother-in-law, this is what I wore when I kept Brother Qu to get married." Mai Xiaohuan went over to stop it, if she wore this skirt today, she would have to make a new one when the eldest brother got married, it was not a matter of silver, and she was troublesome to measure the size and choose the color.

Lin laughed angrily at his own righteous woman, other people's little girls are looking forward to making a few more new clothes, this child is good, as long as the clothes are not torn or small, she can always wear them. combing a simple hairstyle every day, the most extravagant jewelry is probably those beaded flowers, a few pairs of earrings in exchange for wearing, and the bracelet on her wrist is still the bracelet given by her godsister back then.

If the family is struggling, she won't say anything, she has been in business for several years, she should have saved a lot of silver, and she is a flower-like age, why don't you like to dress up!

I can't listen to her today, I must be the master, and the Lin family doesn't need Shan Ju to do it, so he sends the maid next to him to go into battle in person, holding Mai Xiaohuan to help her change her clothes and comb her hair. Because Gonggong Xu was still waiting in the front hall, the Lin family and the maids sped up, and it didn't take long for a pretty and smart young lady to be freshly baked.

"You will dress up like this in the future, have you heard, I will go and help you choose a few maids today, I can't let you go down like this anymore."

After some careful dressing, this child is not worse than the young lady in the capital, it's a pity that she looks so small, she doesn't like to dress up, she just has a few people to help, and she can't let her temperament come in the future.

I am in the wind and rain all day long, how can I have time to dress up! Besides, face the loess and dress it up with your back to the sky. Take care of yourself all the time, otherwise your skin would have darkened and roughened. I just don't like makeup, and it's inconvenient to wear three layers of clothes on the left and three layers on the right, and it's like a big mistake to get to my stepmother, which is incomprehensible.

According to the rules of the Lin Sect, Mai Xiaohuan saluted Gonggong Li.

"Master Qu, this little girl is really from the countryside! Which lady did you think was coming! Gonggong Li was surprised, no wonder the prince left the granddaughter of the university scholar family for her, this appearance, this bearing, if he didn't know her details in advance, he must have thought that the Qu family was looking for a young lady to pretend!

"This is Qu's righteous daughter Mai Xiaohuan."

On the way into the palace, Qu Zhiyi and Mai Xiaohuan sat in the same carriage, and he wanted to teach Mai Xiaohuan the etiquette of meeting the emperor.

At this moment, in the imperial study, the emperor looked at his nephew who was looking out frequently, and scolded him for being unproductive. Zhou Yue wanted to say that he hadn't seen his sweetheart for almost ten days, of course he missed it, and a person with three thousand harem beauties like the emperor couldn't understand his mood at all.

"Your imperial grandmother's proposal, don't you really think about it?"

Zhou Yue shook her head resolutely, the bad girl had already put the requirements for choosing a son-in-law on the table, if there were one or more women in her backyard, she would definitely not give herself another chance.

"Uncle Huang can make an order to let her accept the granddaughter of the scholar and Han Ruixue, and they can sit on an equal footing, which is already a great honor for a small village girl, if she is not satisfied, it will be a little too unimportant." The emperor pretended to be angry.

"You and Grandmother will leave this matter alone, okay? What Xiao Huan can give me, ten or a hundred Han Ruixue can't give it. When I was at my worst, she was always there to encourage and comfort me. Because of the death of my mother and the indifference of my father, my heart has long become a pool of stagnant water, and it is she who makes the stagnant water flow again and makes my life colorful again. There is no one in this world who can replace her, there really isn't. ”

The emperor has also been young, and he has also had a woman he loves deeply, and he can fully understand his nephew's feelings, forget it, this child has lacked care since he was a child, and he finally met the person he liked, and he just fulfilled him.

"Emperor Qiqi, Master Qu, Qu County Ling and Mai Mai have arrived."

Hearing the sound of the eunuch outside the door, Zhou Yueteng stood up suddenly, he looked around, and aimed at the screen behind him: "Don't tell that girl that I'm also going back to Beijing, and remember to help me ask her how she feels about me." After saying this, he turned and hid behind the screen.

"Look at your little bit of interest." This nephew is too embarrassed to himself, and the character who usually walks sideways in the capital, when he hears that his sweetheart is coming, it's like a mouse seeing a cat, it's really embarrassing.

"The change of the minister's song, Qu Hao sees the emperor, long live my emperor, long live."

"Mai Xiaohuan, the people's daughter, greets the emperor, long live my emperor, long live."

"You're all on the safe side!!" Since Mai Xiaohuan walked in, the emperor began to look at her, and the more he looked at her, the more confused he became, is this a country girl?

Gonggong Li nodded at the emperor, and he was also trying to accept this matter.

"Mai Xiaohuan, right! Come over here and let me take a closer look. ”

Zhou Yue was worried about Mai Xiaohuan behind the screen, afraid that something would go wrong when she first entered the palace to see the emperor, but her imperial uncle still let people get closer, so she could only show up.

Mai Xiaohuan obediently moved forward, the emperor was very curious about her, she had never seen a living ...... Ah......h The real emperor is also very interested. The two looked at each other for a while, and just when Qu Zhiyi wanted to kneel down to apologize for Mai Xiaohuan and ask the emperor to forgive her for her abrupt crime, the emperor suddenly burst out laughing.

"This girl is interesting, she is the first person who dares to look at me, not blinking, not evading!"

Can't you look at the emperor? I thought it was polite to look into the other person's eyes!

"Please forgive the emperor, this child entered the palace for the first time, and she didn't understand many rules, it was a dereliction of duty and she didn't teach her well." Qu Zhiyi knelt down to intercede for Mai Xiaohuan, and Qu Hao also knelt down.

It's really terrible to kneel at every turn, complaining in my heart is complaining, Mai Xiaohuan obediently knelt beside Qu Hao, the person above is the one who holds the power of life and death, he can't give in!

"Hey! I'm not angry, what are you nervous about, Xiao Huan, right? Come here, I have something to ask you! Rise up, both of you. After receiving the order, Mai Xiaohuan quickly stood up, helped Qu Zhiyi up with both hands, and smiled apologetically at him, he will pay attention to it next, and he will not get into trouble again.

The emperor was very satisfied with Mai Xiaohuan's reaction, and this kid looked like a loving and righteous person.

"Xiao Huan! How do you know how to increase grain production and improve land methods, I have never heard of the methods mentioned in Qu Hao's excerpt. ”

"The folk girl grew up in the countryside, and the family's small vegetable garden will be fertilized and turned deep every year, so that the vegetables can grow better and better year by year. I think the same principle should be applied to the field. The reason why the sandy land does not harvest crops is because the fertility is not enough, so give it more fertilizer and deep fertilizer, but I didn't expect this method to really work. ”

"And how did you know how to grow corn and potatoes?"

Are you a hundred thousand why? Mai Xiaohuan didn't expect the emperor to be interested in these little things, let's lie! That's a crime of deceit; I couldn't tell the truth, and after thinking for a while, she explained: "Since I read the words, I like to read agricultural books, I once saw in a book that it mentioned that there are these two crops in Fanbang, and the folk girl guessed that the planting method should be similar to planting beans and sweet potatoes." ”

The kid must not be telling the truth, if it was as easy as she said, why didn't anyone grow these two things until now? She doesn't waste time on these little things, no matter how she knows, just grow them.

The emperor asked what the villa was like now, and he wanted to see it in person when Zhao Ge Lao said.

"Ahem!" A voice came from behind the screen, prompting the emperor to ask the point, the point!

The father and son of the Qu family kept their heads down, and the two of them thought that the emperor was coughing, Mai Xiaohuan heard that the voice was coming from behind the screen, and couldn't help but look around, could it be that there was someone behind?

"Xiao Huan! Do you know the identity of the Chin Cha sent to your lodge? ”

"Isn't it Zhou Yue, the prince of Chenwang's Mansion?"

This girl is really bold, and she dares to call her name, the emperor smiled and shook her head, it seems that her nephew is really different from her!

Qu Zhiyi whispered to remind Mai Xiaohuan not to call the son of the world by his name. You can't even call your name! Mai Xiaohuan hated not being able to close his mouth, this was too testing, in case that sentence was wrong, it didn't matter if he was punished, it would not be good to implicate his father-in-law's family.

"How are you getting along with him, I heard that you have known each other for a long time."

Think about it first, think about it later, bow your head and think for a while, Mai Xiaohuan said carefully: "The son is very good." ”

I can't make a difference with a few words like this, and the emperor motioned for Mai Xiaohuan to continue.

Say! Then pick the most prominent advantage and say: "The son of the world is very good-looking." ”

"Haha, haha......" The emperor glanced behind him, boy, you heard it! This girl compliments you on your good looks! If you want to get angry, remember to find the right person, don't involve the innocent!
