Cheng Pingbo and his wife came so early.

He Ningxin and Jian Feiyang glanced at each other, and there was a look of unbearability on their faces.

Pity the hearts of parents all over the world.

The cart of Cheng Pingbo's Mansion stopped at the gate of the Zhenguo Mansion, and Cheng Pingbo lifted the curtain and saw the Zhenguo Gong Jian Feiyang and a young woman dressed in a blue brocade and a big red tone standing side by side on the steps, smiling at them.

Cheng Pingbo jumped out of the car, and the mother-in-law of Cheng Pingbo's Mansion caught up from behind and helped Mrs. Cheng Pingbo get out of the car.

Jian Feiyang took He Ningxin down the steps and bowed to Cheng Pingbo.

Mrs. Cheng Pingbo greeted her from behind and saluted He Ningxin. He Ningxin was busy and polite.

After Jian Feiyang helped the two parties give a brief introduction, he smiled at Cheng Pingbo and said, "Lao Zhao, come with me to the outer courtyard study to drink two cups?" The best bamboo leaves sent from the southwest, I am reluctant to give it to ordinary people. Cheng Pingbo arched his hand again and said with a smile: "Naturally, it is better to be respectful than to obey your fate." But you have to taste the general's bamboo leaf green! He is still used to referring to Jian Feiyang as a position in the army.

After saying this, the two of them, together with He Ningxin and Mrs. Cheng Pingbo, all said goodbye, then turned around and entered the mansion and went to the outer courtyard.

He Ningxin smiled and blessed Mrs. Cheng Pingbo, and said, "Madame, come in with me." They have bamboo leaves, we have a daughter red, and we must drink with my wife! ”

Mrs. Cheng Pingbo's somewhat sad face also showed a slight smile, bowed to He Ningxin, followed into the Zhenguo Mansion, got into the sedan chair together, and went to the second gate.

Mrs. Cheng Pingbo's maid and mother-in-law followed, led by the subordinates of the Zhenguo Mansion, and also followed into the inner courtyard.

Coming to the upper room of the inner courtyard Zhiyuan Pavilion, Mrs. Cheng Pingbo looked at He Ningxin widening the crane outside, revealing the rose and purple two-color gold and silver mouse jacket inside, wearing a green onion huáng'sè silk cotton skirt underneath, and a gold Yingluo Ruyi lock hanging around her neck, the colors are many but not chaotic, bright but not vulgar, although she is young, the majesty of the wife of the house is not reduced, so she nodded secretly in her heart.

He Ningxin also looked at Mrs. Cheng Pingbo's gray squirrel outside, and she was only wearing a honey-dyed gold silk cotton jacket inside, with a big red jacket exposed at the bottom of the neckline, but a stone blue cotton skirt underneath, and only a small begonia huā silk huā on her head, which made her somewhat gloomy face brighter.

The two looked at each other, saluted, and sat down separately. Mrs. Cheng Pingbo gave He Ningxin the New Year's gift she brought.

He Ningxin looked at it, and saw that it was all the color rulers used in filial piety, thanked Mrs. Cheng Pingbo, and then took her return gift and gave it to Mrs. Cheng Pingbo's mother-in-law.

The two exchanged two words, and He Ningxin instructed someone to bring Cheng Pingbo's maid and mother-in-law down to have tea, leaving only one of Mrs. Cheng Pingbo's personal maids to serve beside her.

Mrs. Cheng Pingbo looked at her and said with a smile: "I have someone to serve here, you can also go to tea with everyone." "I actually sent my personal maid away.

He Ningxin knew that Mrs. Chengping had something to say, so she also smiled and nodded, and ordered her subordinates to take the maid down.

Because there were only two of them, He Ningxin ordered someone to put the banquet in the warm pavilion, and asked Mrs. Chengping to get up and go over to eat and drink together.

At this time, it was time to have breakfast, and the banquet that He Ningxin ordered was all small plates.

There are four candied dishes, apples, peaches, lychees and water chestnuts: three sweet bowls, lotus seed porridge, almond tea and eight treasure rice: four small plates of cold vegetables, sliced lamb liver, crab legs, sliced mandarin duck, and braised goose: four hot dishes are also prepared, stir-fried shrimp with green vegetables, 1 gherkin stewed white meat, garlic loofah, and a stewed pot of beef silk mushroom pheasant and cub soup. The staple food is gold and silver dumplings and badger meat and cabbage buns.

Meat and vegetarian combinations, both hot and cold.

Mrs. Cheng Pingbo also used a little porridge at home, and when she saw the dishes on the table, colorful, she couldn't help but move her index finger, pointing to the tender garlic loofah and smiling: "This green leafy vegetable in the house is really rare, but where did you buy it?" Tell me about it too, and go back to the light of the Zhenguo Mansion. ”

He Ningxin covered her sleeves and smiled: "Mrs. Chengping is polite. These are the hands of my mother's grandmother. My mother's greenhouse dish is famous in the capital.

However, what is not sold is for personal use. Mrs. Chengping Bo then remembered that the Duchess of Zhenguo was the daughter of Inspector Zuo Yushi He Siping. Of course, the He family's greenhouse vegetables are worthy of their reputation.

"I was presumptuous. Madame, don't be surprised. Mrs. Cheng Pingbo hurriedly got up and apologized to He Ningxin.

He Ningxin pulled Mrs. Cheng Pingbo to sit down, and said with a smile: "Madame praises, my mother's grandmother is too late to be happy, how can she be angry?" Rest assured, I'm not such a stingy person.

Come, eat vegetables. As he spoke, he ordered the maid to serve food to Mrs. Chengpingbo.

Mrs. Cheng Pingbo hurriedly stopped and said to He Ningxin: "I eat it myself, it is sweet." ”

He Ningxin ordered Mrs. Cheng Pingbo to pour wine, and drank two cups with her.

After three rounds of drinking, the two of them each ate some vegetables, and after using a small dumpling, they felt full.

He Ningxin ordered someone to remove the banquet and give it to the maid who was waiting in the room today. He sat opposite Mrs. Cheng Pingbo on the warm kang, drinking tea and chatting at the same time.

Mrs. Cheng Pingbo saw that it was almost over, so she said to He Ningxin: "Don't hide it from Mrs., we came today to ask for something." ,

He Ningxin looked at Mrs. Cheng Pingbo and motioned for her to continue.

Mrs. Chengping Bo endured the shame and said, "I don't know if the Duke of Zhenguo has told his wife about it, the prince of our house is now serving in front of the Northwest Army." ,…

"I heard our grandfather talk about it yesterday. Madame rest assured, let the son go, he will be able to blame the blue, and better than the blue, and make a career.

He Ningxin chose good words to comfort Mrs. Cheng Pingbo.

Mrs. Cheng Pingbo sighed, and said to He Ningxin in her heart: "I don't ask him to make meritorious contributions, I just want him to go smoothly and come back safely in the future." Our lord said that the Northwest Army is full of generals from the Zhenguo Mansion, and I hope that the Zhenguo Gong will help our son say a few words, so that he can live a more stable life there. "In the end, it is a loving mother who is reluctant to let her son suffer.

He Ningxin was a little embarrassed, and said: "Mrs. Chengping Bo is a beloved son, but our Zhenguo Mansion, although there are Northwest military households in hand, has not interfered in the military affairs of the Northwest Army for many years. Mrs. Cheng Pingbo hurriedly said: "Mrs. Zhenguo misunderstood, I didn't let Zhenguo Gong help favoritism, I just hoped that Zhenguo Gong could help take care of him, don't let those people tease him." Our prince is thin-skinned, I'm afraid he won't be able to think about it..."When Chengping Bo Shizi arrived in the Northwest Army, he probably had to start as a pawn.

He Ningxin looked at Mrs. Cheng Pingbo with some sympathy, and said: "These things, Cheng Pingbo should mention them to our grandfather, don't worry, Mrs. can help, Grandpa Guo will definitely not stand idly." ”

Mrs. Cheng Pingbo breathed a long sigh of relief and said, "Then it will trouble the prince and Mrs. Zhenguo." The two were silent for a while, and Mrs. Cheng Pingbo finally opened with some difficulty. , said: "Madam, I heard that you are the friendly mother of the prince of Ningyuan's Mansion and the township monarch?" He Ningxin's heart moved, knowing that she was coming, she smiled and said, "Yes, I fell in love with those two children, and I cherish them as if they were my own children." ”

Mrs. Cheng Pingbo's hand shook and spilled the water in the teacup, drenching the kang table.

He Ningxin hurriedly called someone to come in and clean up.

Mrs. Cheng Pingbo watched anxiously as the maid from the Zhenguo Mansion came in to clean up the table, the corners of her mouth twitched and pursed, and she stopped talking.

He Ningxin stared at the green huā porcelain teacup in her hand and did not speak.

When the maid who had packed up went down, Mrs. Chengping pondered and asked: "It has spread outside, saying that the Marquis of Ningyuan's Mansion has invited Mr. Jiangzuo Mingshi Shan to the Mansion as a teacher. ”

He Ningxin raised her head, nodded with a smile, and said, "Exactly." That Mr. Shan, I heard that the academic character is excellent. ”

Mrs. Cheng Pingbo couldn't help but snort lightly and said, "Madam, hearsay is not credible. He Ningxin let out an "oh" and asked with a smile: "I heard that before Mr. Shan, he was sitting in the Chengping Bo Mansion, and he was the gentleman of the Chengping Bo Shizi. Mrs. Cheng Pingbo should know a little bit about the character and knowledge of Shan Xianshi, right? ”

Mrs. Cheng Pingbo's face turned red, and when she wanted to deny it, she couldn't deny it. Looking at the thoughtful smile of the Duchess of Zhenguo, Mrs. Chengping Bo gritted her teeth and said, "If the Duchess of Zhenguo really feels sorry for the prince of the Marquis of Ningyuan's mansion, don't let Mr. Shan enter the mansion as a teacher." ”

He Ningxin said "um", a little embarrassed, and said: "Although I am a friendly mother, but I have a father, grandmother, and stepmother in the room, how can I be allowed to speak?" ”

Mrs. Cheng Pingbo sighed and said, "This is not my mother, it's different."

Don't hide it from the Duchess of Zhenguo, I also went to the Marquis Ningyuan's Mansion in person to ask to see Mrs. Ningyuan Marquis and let her think twice. ”

He Ningxin was not surprised at all, and snorted lightly: "Mrs. Chengping also said that it is not biological, or it is different. "yes. Just ask a gentleman, do you need to make a big fanfare? You don't know, for a while, there were rumors everywhere outside, saying that it was a good gentleman that Ning Yuanhou personally selected for the prince, and praised Mr. Shan to the sky, and I heard that Mrs. Ning Yuanhou could finally rest assured, and she was worthy of her deceased sister-in-law" Mrs. Cheng Pingbo talked about the rumors for a while, and she knew more than He Ningxin.

He Ningxin's fingernails that he had just kept slammed on the kang table and broke into two.

Mrs. Cheng Pingbo was taken aback, and hurriedly asked, "Is the Duchess of Zhenguo okay?" ”

He Ningxin shook her head with a smile, retracted her hand with broken nails into her sleeve, and pulled the topic away, chatting with Mrs. Cheng Pingbo about the New Year.

Seeing off Cheng Pingbo and his wife, He Ningxin and Jian Feiyang discussed it, and Jian Feiyang wrote a letter to an acquaintance in the Northwest Army, suggesting that Cheng Pingbo's son be promoted from a pawn to a certain general's personal soldier. Mr. and Mrs. Cheng Pingbo are grateful, but they will not mention it later.

In a blink of an eye, on the eighth day of the lunar month, when He Ningxin returned to her mother's house to deliver Laba porridge, I heard that the saint had issued an edict to the Marquis of Ningyuan's mansion and summoned Chu Qianyi, the son of the Marquis of Ningyuan, to enter the palace to accompany the three princes.
