Chapter 140: The Pearl of the Burrow

"This is the Cui family! Who's an idle person, it's not your turn to point fingers. Old Madam Cui's voice sounded full of energy, not like a frail old man who needed to rest from time to time.

Moon by month lowered his head in displeasure and anger, and stepped aside,

Song Zhi rolled his eyes silently, then turned around and said, "Is the old lady resting?" Look, you look good and are in good spirits. ”

Old Madam Cui only glanced at her, did not speak, and passed by Song Zhi's side, and a sandalwood fragrance wafted to Song Zhi's nose, and this sandalwood fragrance was faintly mixed with some decaying breath.

'It's old, it's old. Song Zhi thought silently, with some inexplicable pity in his heart, and barely managed to squeeze out a little patience.

"Why didn't you bring the child?" Old Madam Cui looked around and frowned.

Song Zhi only smiled dignified and did not answer.

Month by month stepped forward and said, "The little master is asleep, so I didn't bring her out." ”

"What? Doesn't your master himself speak? Do you want to jump out and sing from time to time? Old Madam Cui glanced at Zhuyue, she didn't know what medicine she had taken wrong? There is always a bit of unpleasant stinging in the tone of the voice.

"Because I haven't come to see the old lady these days, the old lady is angry with me?" The old man and the child are the same, and they have to be coaxed.

Song Zhi's straightforward picking out the pustule made Mrs. Cui a little embarrassed, she tilted her head slightly, staggered her gaze, and said coldly: "The princess is a daughter, where do you dare to bother you to come to see my old woman." ”

Song Zhi shook off the handkerchief and dusted off a little dust on his knees.

Chu Wei stood in the corner, spying on her every move, only to see her wrists as white as a heron's long neck, showing worrying vulnerability.

This ordinary action is a little more noble and arrogant when she does it, probably like a stoneware urn and a glass bottle, although they are both vases, but their values are very different.

"My grandmother should know that I was pregnant at the same time as my sister-in-law. I was lucky, I didn't suffer too much from pregnancy and childbirth, but my sister-in-law was bedridden when she was first pregnant, and she was wasted a lot after giving birth. With such an example on the side, the prince is inevitably worried, and I myself have some concern in my heart, so I haven't come to visit the old lady these days, and I ask the old lady not to blame. ”

Song Zhi's words were eight points true and two points false, and when she heard it, Mrs. Cui softened her face, she was silent for a moment, and coughed lightly, "Don't you serve tea to the princess?" ”

"Uh." The mother beside her said with some embarrassment, "Old lady, the refreshments have already been served." The status of the princess is both precious and your granddaughter-in-law, how can we be lazy? ”

Mrs. Cui saw Song Zhi pinching a tea cup and skimming off the tea leaves floating on it, she picked up the tea and smelled it, hooked her lips and smiled, and said: "Yunwu Maojian, it's really good tea, but I'm still taking tonics, and I can't drink this good tea." ”

"Replace the goat's milk I'm drinking." Although Old Madam Cui's tone was still so blunt, what she said had a flattering meaning.

The curvature of the corners of her mouth is so good-looking, and her attitude is so down-to-earth and generous, neither humble nor arrogant.

Chu Wei still paid attention to Song Zhi, and felt a little inexplicably uncomfortable in his heart.

Although she had such an identity because she was married to the regent, she was originally the concubine of the general's family, far better than herself, the concubine of a small six-rank civil official. But it doesn't matter, she is a powerful lady, and she disdains to do some things that are twisted and welcomed, which just fulfills me. It would be a pity that such a good man as the regent was only allowed to be enjoyed by herself. ’

She dreamed beautifully, and gently exhaled a breath of turbidity, but she was unexpectedly named by Mrs. Cui.

"Wei'er." Old Madam Cui looked at her, and her tone was very different and gentle, "Why are you hiding there and not talking?" Haven't seen the princess yet? ”

Chu Wei felt that it was not a good time to meet Song Zhi at this moment, and maybe it would make Song Zhi suspicious, and when he was hesitating, a vulgar and hoarse voice sounded, "Why is the old lady so lively?" But which lady came to greet the old lady? ”

As soon as Chu Wei heard this familiar voice, his face suddenly burned.

"Yo, whose little daughter-in-law is this really handsome!" The woman only saw Song Zhi's side, and praised him.

She was about to enter the door to take a clear look at Song Zhi's appearance, but was stopped by a water chestnut who stretched out his hand, and the water chestnut took the door by the way and shut the woman out.

Her self-assertion made Mrs. Cui unhappy, and before she could have a seizure, she heard the woman shouting outside, "What a precious body! Look, I can't look at it yet, like someone who doesn't have a face! ”

Now it is reasonable and unreasonable, Mrs. Cui glanced at her mother beside her, she understood the meaning and hurriedly went out to deal with it.

Song Zhi only heard a few sporadic words, 'What? ''She's the princess!'? ’

I couldn't hear the rest of the words, and I didn't know if she was gagged by someone else, or if she shut up herself.

Old Madam Cui still had a strong face, but she could still see a little embarrassment.

"Old lady, who is this person? It doesn't seem like the Cui family, nor like the people you would come and go with on a daily basis. Song Zhi felt a little weird, and remembered Uncle Cui's strange look before going out, and felt even more strange.

Old Madam Cui glanced at Song Zhi, her eyes flickered a little, and said, "It's Wei'er's mother, and Wei'er's grandfather is my brother." It's a pity that my brother went early, and my son is not angry, but there are many children and grandchildren, but there are few successful instruments, only one Wei'er has entered my eyes. Come on, Wei'er, come here. ”

Old Madam Cui beckoned to Chu Wei, Chu Wei stepped forward to greet Song Zhi, Song Zhi sat upright and accepted Chu Wei's salute, only nodding slightly.

Chu Wei has a pair of round apricot eyes, which is innocent, saying that it looks like Song Zhi's eyes, but it is not like it.

Although Song Zhi's eyes are round, the corners of his eyes are pointed, and the soul is this pair of eyes, and the innocent eye is also this pair of eyes.

Chu Wei's eyebrows, although thick, but short, are all outlined by the eyebrows, and they are still somewhat similar from a distance, but when you look closely, you can feel rigid and glowing with green light.

Song Zhi's eyebrows are black without painting, even the best eyebrow cream can't paint such elegance, like the moon and like a bridge.

At a cursory glance, others may think that the two are slightly similar in terms of eyebrows and eyes, but a closer look will show that this one is a pearl and the other is a stone mixed with shell powder.

So Song Zhi didn't feel anything unusual, her eyes fell on Chu Wei's plump lip flap, and said with a smile: "Miss Chu's lip fat is special, and it looks extraordinarily full and ruddy. ”

Chu Wei smiled shyly, she knew what her advantages were, so she naturally worked harder here, her lipstick was made of honey and peony flower juice, in order to pick the few pure colored peonies in the courtyard, she didn't know how many cold words she received from the sisters in the clan.

"The pearl of the burrow, it's a girl like Wei'er." Old Madam Cui stretched out her hand towards Chu Wei and led her over with a smile.

Zhuyue is not an arrogant person, but when she heard Mrs. Cui's words, she still couldn't help but chuckle in her heart, "With the princess here, who else can be called a pearl?" ’

"What does the princess think?" Old Madam Cui asked Song Zhi inexplicably.

Song Zhi was stunned, and when she saw Mrs. Cui holding Chu Wei's hand, she knew what she was asking.

"Well, Miss Chu looks good and has a good figure." What Song Zhi said was just polite words, but Old Madam Cui and Chu Wei glanced at each other and laughed strangely.

……

"We've come to see it today, Mrs. Cui should be satisfied, right?" As soon as the water chestnut got into the carriage, he couldn't help but complain.

Moon by month slapped her lightly and said, "You guy, isn't it good to wait for the carriage to leave the gate of the house?" ”

The water chestnut lifted the curtain and glanced at it, and said, "No one hears it, just a few of us." ”

She turned around and said to Song Zhi: "Today's old lady is really strange, that Wei is also weird, and her mother-in-law is even more funny, how can the Cui family have such a down-and-out relative?" ”

"What's so strange? As the saying goes, the emperor also has beggar relatives. Song Zhi came out of nowhere with a rhinoceros horn comb and handed it to Zhuyue to let her comb her hair for herself. It's still early, let's go back to my parents' house to see my sister-in-law, right? ”

"Okay." The water chestnut answered, and the probe went out to tell the coachman.

With a wave of his whip, the coachman quickly reversed course.

The journey from Cui's family to Song's house took about half an hour, and when Song Zhi arrived at Cui's house, it was time to eat dim sum, she walked into Zeng Yunyi's room and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law steals red bean gnocchi!" I want it too! ”

"You girl, you really want to mess with me, Cicada Yi, let someone serve a bowl to the princess." Zeng Yunyi was finally able to get out of bed, but he was still lying on the soft collapse.

She had just eaten the gnocchi, her lips were ruddy, and she looked very good, but Cicada Yi knew in her heart that this was just a temporary good complexion.

Song Zhi spooned a soup ball to eat, the red bean paste in the soup ball was sweet and delicious, and there was a faint medicinal taste.

"Are you not used to eating? I became a medicine jar, and now I even have tonic herbs in the dumplings. You eat it to make up for your body, but it tastes weird. Zeng Yunyi smiled reluctantly and said to Song Zhi.

Song Zhi didn't want to talk about these things that made her unhappy, so she only tore away from the conversation and called Cicada Yi to bring Ru'er over.

Ru'er was born more like Zeng Yun, and her eyes were a little gray.

"It's cuter than a brute." Song Zhi poked the flesh nest on Ru'er's little hand and said.

"How can there be a mother like you?" Zeng Yunyi looked at his son, and only felt that it was better than any tonic. "Speaking of which, why didn't you bring your daughter to see me today?"

Song Zhi said that he went to the Cui family first, and Zeng Yunyi smiled: "The old man is like a child, you have a sweet mouth, you must have settled it, right?" ”

"Probably?" Song Zhi said uncertainly.

After Song Zhi returned to the palace, she realized that her uncertainty was correct, she never thought that there were people in the world who could be so thick-skinned.
