Chu Zhi sorted out a bunch of things, let the mountain smoke, Chu Liang carried it, and he walked in front empty-handed. Chu Li, Shanyan looked at each other and smiled bitterly.

Chu Zhi glanced back at the two of them and said, "I'll go to my uncle's house later, be in good spirits, didn't you two fall asleep last night, why were you listless." ”

Chu Liang said: "Dad, I know, if you take the two of us to eat delicious food, we will ensure that we are in good spirits." ”

Chu Zhi said as he walked in front: "I usually take you to eat delicious food, but I have worked hard for you today." ”

Shanyan complained in the back: "It's good that you know, master." ”

The three of them walked for a long time and arrived at Chu Lan's house, even though it was early in the morning, Chu Liang and Shanyan were still sweating, Chu Liang just wanted to go home and take a bath. Chu Zhi looked relaxed.

The gatekeeper knew that it was them, and he didn't dare to slack off, so he led them to see Chu Yaozuo, Mrs. Li.

Chu Yaozuo, Mrs. Li was very happy to see them coming. I asked them to sit down again and again, and served them tea and snacks. The subordinate packed up the things that Chu Zhi had brought to another room.

Mrs. Li smiled and said to Chu Zhi: "I haven't seen you for a few years, but you look a few years older, big brother." ”

Chu scolded and smiled: "The years are unforgiving. Chu Yaozuo looked much younger than Chu Zhi, Chu Liang thought so in his heart.

Chu Zhi knocked on Chu Li's head and said, "Silly girl, why are you in a daze?" ”

Chu Yaozuo asked, "Big brother, have you settled down in Linjiang City this time?" ”

Chu Zhi said: "Yes. ”

It didn't take long for Chu Lan to come, looking like she hadn't woken up, and casually asked Chu Shu a hello, and Mrs. Li glanced at her.

Mrs. Li said: "Let Chu Lan take Chu Liang to the mansion for a walk, the children and adults can't talk together." ”

Chu Zhi said to Chu Li: "Go and play with Chu Lan." Chu Liang agreed, Chu Lan took Chu Li, and Shanyan and the two of them wandered around the garden in the mansion.

Seeing Chu Lan's yawning appearance, Chu Liang asked, "Sister, didn't you sleep well last night?" ”

Chu Lan sat down in the pavilion, and Chu Liang and Shanyan had to sit opposite her. Chu Lan said: "Yesterday, my mother insisted that I do needlework, and I am not allowed to sleep if I can't finish it, the needlework is so complicated, where will I learn it for a while." ”

Shanyan hid his face and laughed, Chu Liang touched Shanyan's arm, and said quietly: "These things have to be done slowly, I am also afraid of these female celebrities." ”

Chu Lan sat up straight and said, "Cousin, don't be too modest, my mother said that you can do anything, and she complains every day that I cause trouble for her." ”

Chu Liang argued: "Aunt is really ridiculous, I really don't know anything, my clothes at home are all sewn by mountain smoke, I will only be a little." ”

Chu Lan's eyes widened and said, "Really? It turns out that cousin, you don't have much. ”

Chu Liang saw that Chu Lan knew that he would not be so happy, but he didn't know what to say.

After a while, the maid beside Chu Lan came over and said, "The two young ladies came here, why don't the two young ladies come over for lunch?" ”

Before I knew it, it was noon, and Chu Liang didn't like to go to other people's houses for lunch, so he always felt very restrained.

Chu Zhi and Chu Yaozuo, Mrs. Li chatted very well, when Chu Liang passed, they didn't know what to say, Chu Zhi laughed as he spoke.

When Mrs. Li saw the three of them coming, she arranged for Chu Li and Chu Lan to sit down. The mountain smoke was led by the peach branch and went to another room.

After a while, the dish was served, and Chu Li took a closer look at the dish and saw that the dish was very exquisite, but the portion was very small. Since the lesson of Chu Liang at Princess Ruyang's house last time, he didn't dare to eat loudly or eat more, and Chu Liang ate the same meal as if he didn't eat it, Chu Liang touched his stomach and felt that his stomach was empty.

After eating, Chu Zhi chatted with Chu Yaozuo for a while before going home, the brothers hadn't seen each other for several years, and they still had a lot to say when they met. Mrs. Li sent a lot of things to Chu Zhi, but Chu Zhi couldn't shirk it, so she had to accept it. Mrs. Li also said: "Remember to come and play when you have time." ”

Chu Zhi went home satisfied, Chu Liang Shanyan walked behind, Chu Liang asked in a low voice: "Shanyan, have you eaten enough?" ”

Shanyan replied, "No, girl, what about you?" ”

Chu Liang whispered: "I don't have either, let's go home and cook some noodles later." ”

Chu Zhi turned around and asked, "What are you two planning?" ”

Chu Liang stepped forward and said, "I really didn't think about anything, I really can't hide anything from your father's ears." ”

Chu Zhi smiled and didn't say anything more.

Xie Jing called Xie Shaoqing over early in the morning and said, "I was a little busy two days ago, and I delayed your marriage with Chu Li, and I plan to ask Zhan He to send a minister to propose marriage to you tomorrow." ”

Xie Shaoqing said: "Everything is arranged by my father. ”

Xie Shaoqing found a chair to sit down, Xie Jing got up from the chair, walked down, and said, "You are so easy to talk now, you don't have any requirements at all, why don't you agree to the girls that your mother told you at the beginning?" ”

Xie Shaoqing said: "Don't hide it from my father, I have seen her a few times. ”

Xie Jing smiled: "What is there to hide from these things, make it clear to your mother earlier, and she won't be angry with you behind your back." ”

Xie Shaoqing said: "Wait for me to find an opportunity to make it clear to my mother, by the way, when does my father plan to arrange Lizhen's marriage." ”

Xie Jing said: "She is still young, let's talk about it in two years." ”

Xie Shaoqing reminded: "But Chen Guan is already sixteen. ”

Xie Jing said: "Aren't you also sixteen, I don't think you're in a hurry at all, Chen Guan is sixteen, but he is not sensible at all, he can't expect Lizhi to marry and take care of Chen Guan, she can't even take care of herself." ”

Xie Shaoqing continued: "I just think I don't have to wait for two years, next year will be fine. ”

Xie Jing said with a smile: "Tomorrow, I will ask Zhan He to ask the master to measure the birth dates of you and Lizhen, and see what zodiac auspicious day is the best to marry." ”

Xie Jing sat down and said, "Time flies so fast, in a blink of an eye, you have reached the age of starting a family." ”

Xie Shaoqing said thoughtfully: "The child is only worried that Chu Liang is unwilling to marry the child. ”

Xie Jing said: "What's wrong with this, if it weren't for the ...... back then?"

Xie Jing didn't say anything halfway, Xie Shaoqing asked, "What was it back then?" ”

A eunuch opened the curtains, and the sunlight shone into the room and shone on Xie Jing, Xie Jing smiled: "It's nothing, just say it casually, don't think too much, be kind to other girls after getting married, your temperament is sometimes not very good, remember to restrain yourself." ”

The speaker has no intention, but the listener has a heart, Xie Shaoqing thought for a long time and didn't understand the meaning of Xie Jing's sentence "If it wasn't back then".

Xie Jing pushed Xie Shaoqing's arm and said, "I'll go to your mother's palace and talk to her later." ”
