Chapter 233: Calling the Shots
Jin Zhao was dressed neatly and was ready to go to find Yu Wenyu, but he didn't want to, the other party came over first.
Qiao Ci and Qing Wen hurriedly stepped forward and saluted, "The slave has seen the third prince."
Yu Wenyu waved his hand, motioned for the two of them to get up, and then turned his eyes on Jin Zhao and slowly walked in front of her, took out the basic book from behind, and said to her: "I know that you love to read, so I found a few books, and I don't know if you like it."
As he spoke, Yu Wenyu handed her the book.
Jin Zhao glanced at the books in his hand, a little surprised, including "Liu Mengde's Anthology", which is actually her favorite book to read, there were a lot of books in her previous yard, but she didn't bring them together when she got married, and the books that Yu Wenyu brought to her were the most suitable to pass the time when she had nothing to do.
Jin Zhao accepted the book unceremoniously: "The third prince bothered, I accepted this book."
Yu Wenyu didn't seem to be satisfied, so he reminded loudly: "Madame only called my husband last night, why do you want to call me the third prince today, it's only been one night, is it possible that Madame is so forgetful." Since you and I are already husband and wife, there is no need to see each other like this, so that people can look at it, don't you feel that you are angry? ”
Su Jinzhao was stunned for a moment, and only after she reacted did she understand what she was referring to, in front of the maid, she was a little embarrassed to call him her husband, so she simply turned to the topic: "I still have to enter the palace today to greet him, it's better not to delay."
Yu Wenyu saw that she didn't change her words according to her wishes, but she didn't get angry, but waved her hand and said: "Don't worry, I can't delay the time to eat, I asked the cook in the house to make some food, and then enter the palace after eating."
Hearing this, Su Jinzhao suddenly remembered the bowl of noodles last night, and wanted to ask him if he had taken it away, but when the words came to his mouth, he was really embarrassed to speak, and after hesitating, he didn't ask him.
Subsequently, Yu Wenyu instructed his subordinates to bring the meal.
"It's all made to your taste, try it, how does it compare to your cooking?" Yu Wenyu sat down and said.
Jin Zhao glanced at the food in front of him, it was very rich, he looked good, he smelled good, he had an appetite, Jin Zhao hesitated and said, "Husband...... The husband praised it, the cooking skills of the masters in the house are exquisite, how can Jin Zhao's craftsmanship compare to theirs, these dishes look good, better than Jin Zhao's cooking. ”
Yu Wenyu smiled and said, "Yes, how do I think you are better than them."
Yu Wenyu praised Jin Zhao's words in front of his subordinates, and entered the ears of his subordinates word by word, only to hear them whisper: "The relationship between the third prince and the princess is really good."
In the past, she ate alone in the house, but now that there is one more person around for no reason, Jin Zhao is a little uncomfortable.
She lowered her head and ate one bite at a time, but Yu Wenyu added vegetables to her from time to time.
What she wanted to refuse, she just brushed Yu Wenyu's intention in front of her subordinates, if she made the other party lose face, after thinking about it, she gave up again.
Such a scene reminded Jin Zhao of the past. Yu Wenyu in her memory also served food for her and ate with her, but later, when there were more affairs in the court, he became more and more busy, and more often than not, he left her alone, inexplicably empty and lonely.
Jin Zhao felt for a while, and unconsciously stopped halfway through eating.
Seeing this, Yu Wenyu asked, "Why don't you eat it?" That's what I ate. ”
Jin Zhao said to him word by word: "If you are busy with affairs on weekdays, you don't have to eat with Jin Zhao, I am not a child, I have hands and feet, I will eat by myself."
Probably she is used to the feeling of being alone, or she has accepted hope, once she is disappointed, that feeling is not very pleasant, and Jin Zhao doesn't want to experience it again. If there is no hope, there is no need to have illusions, and there is no need to be full of expectations.
Yu Wenyu didn't make a sound, but continued to serve him vegetables: "Eat quickly."
After entering the palace, he met with the saint, and saw that the saint and Yu Wenyu had something to discuss, so he retired to Wuxi Palace.
Along the way, Jin Zhao was secretly distracted, and when she saw that she was about to arrive, she suddenly stopped.
Qiao Ci asked softly, "Master, what's wrong with you, why don't you stop?"
Jin Zhao raised his eyes and looked at the Wuxi Palace in front of him, and sighed secretly, usually at this time she was going to her mother to ask for peace, and kept saying that she would stay by her side and serve her for a few more years, but how long did it take for her to get married, and she was ashamed to say it.
Jin Zhao muttered, "What do you think Mother will do?"
Qiaoci thought for a while and replied: "The slave maid thinks that Mrs. should be busy with the trivial affairs of the house, before the eldest lady helped the housekeeper, Mrs. can have free time, and after some comfortable days, now the master is married, Mrs. is the housewife, and many things in the house have to be decided by her."
As soon as the words fell, Qingwen said: "The slave doesn't think so, Madame has always been extremely concerned about the third young master's studies, so she will probably ask Mother Tong about the third young master."
What the two of them said has their own reasons, and Jin Zhao can't say who is right and who is wrong, after all, these are the things that his mother cares about the most, so he naturally won't let it go.
I'm afraid that she won't be able to share her mother's worries in the future, and she won't be able to go to her mother's house often to talk to her.
She suppressed her thoughts and said to the two maids: "Let's go, don't let Concubine Jing wait for a long time."
Qiao Ci and Qingwen immediately responded and followed.
Knowing that Jin Zhao was coming today, Concubine Jing asked someone to prepare some pastries early.
After Jin Zhao invited the ceremony, she was pulled to the side by Concubine Jing to sit down and talk, Concubine Jing has always been approachable, and she likes this child in her heart, and she is a little more kind to Jin Zhao than others.
Concubine Jing said, "What, didn't Yu'er come with you today?"
Jin Zhao shook his head and replied: "Back to Niangniang, the saint has something important to discuss with him, so he stayed and talked about things, and Jin Zhao came here first."
Jin Zhao looked at the girl's slightly restrained appearance, and said with a smile: "You have married into the heavenly family, why are you still shouting with your mouth open, and Yu'er calls me my mother, they are all a family, there is really no need to see the outside like this, do you say this is the truth."
While speaking, Concubine Jing still had a smile on her face, as if she didn't mean to blame her for Jinzhao's gaffe, which shows that she really likes the child in front of her.
Jin Zhao promised: "Yes, what the mother concubine said is that Jin Zhao lost his words for a while, I hope the mother concubine will not blame." Concubine Jing smiled and said: "Your child has always been well-behaved and sensible, and he likes it when he looks at it, how can the mother blame you, you and Yu'er are now married, and you will have to live a good life in the future, if he bullies you, you just come over and tell the mother concubine, and the mother will definitely make the decision for you."
