Chapter 9: The Chu family visits the door

At the end of the day, Song Shipu returned home in court clothes, and happened to see the carriage parked in front of the door, "Whose carriage is this?" ”

"Back to the master, it's the carriage of the Chu family." The little guy guarding the door saw his master and hurriedly stepped forward to reply.

Song Shipu recalled that he met Lord Yuanzheng in the palace, and he knew it in his heart, so he went back to the room in a hurry to change out of his court clothes.

"Why don't you go over and have a look?"

"There's a lady here, don't worry." Song Shipu is full of confidence in his wife Zhao.

At the end of the dynasty this morning, his in-laws, the Hanlin Academy, were stopping him and talking about the king of Nan'an. The conversation was all about seemingly marginal words, and he intended to inquire about his attitude towards this matter, whether the Chu family could still be friendly with the Song family.

I don't know how many ministers have asked him about this matter, he has no intention of accompanying them around, wasting time, and simply moving out of the Zhao family, all the affairs of the family are handled by the Zhao family, and it involves young daughters, although he is the head of the family, but everything depends on the attitude of the Zhao family.

The crowd departed in a huff.

The elders of the Chu family who came to visit the house, the lady is enough to deal with it, and it is enough for him to go through the formalities in the front hall.

In the front hall of the Song family, Zhao is located in the main seat, wearing a lotus-colored long skirt, the skirt is embroidered with silver silk thread auspicious clouds, and the coat is purple and extraordinary.

In comparison, Chu Xun'er, who was sitting below, looked a little inferior.

"Mother, this is the third uncle of Xun'er, and this is the housekeeper of the Chu family. They came here for the sake of their daughter-in-law's sister. Chu Xun'er intimately introduced the Zhao family, indicating the purpose of the two of them visiting.

Chu Xun'er is well versed in the way of getting along with mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and the Zhao family is stronger in his bones, and he treats them very well on weekdays, thinking about them everywhere. I didn't expect my sister Chu Mi'er to be so ignorant, but she had an inexplicable relationship with King Nan'an, and King Nan'an had a marriage contract with Wu'er, the younger sister of the Song family. The mother-in-law must have been angry.

She wanted to wait for news in the backyard with her sister-in-law, but it was her third uncle who came to her mother's house, and the third uncle preferred her little sister Chu Mi'er, and she couldn't see her being wronged. She was worried that her mother's uncle would accidentally bump into her mother-in-law when he spoke, so she was present and could be reconciled to some extent.

Third Uncle Chu bowed and politely greeted the Zhao family.

Zhao ordered the maidservants to serve tea, and one of the maidservants gave her a look.

"I don't know what is the important thing for the two of you to come to the house early in the morning? My lord has not yet gone to court, if I look for him, I am afraid I will have to wait for a while. ”

Pick up the tea cup on the table, pluck it for a while, and take a sip. The tea leaves are fragrant, and the mood is much more comfortable. She started and waited for the third uncle of the Chu family to speak.

Third Uncle Chu smiled bitterly, "Song Shoufu is busy with business, how dare he alarm him." We came to Madame on a special trip. "Who doesn't know, Song Shoufu listens to his own wife the most, and it may be useful to find him for major events in the DPRK and China, and it is better to find Lord Shoufu for this matter, it is better to come directly to his wife.

Zhao covered his mouth and chuckled, "Are you looking for me to speak for a young master and young lady in the house?" That Chu Mi'er and King Nan'an, I look like a good match. "Straight to the point.

Third Uncle Chu and the housekeeper were both stunned, and looked at each other, their faces unspeakably embarrassed. Chu Xun'er lifted his forehead and sighed.

"Mrs. Song, when my brother returned home yesterday, I only found out that there must have been some misunderstanding. After several inquiries, Mi'er said that she was in love with King Nan'an, and that's all, nothing out of the ordinary. Mi'er has not yet married, it is a matter of reputation, and I ask my wife to ......" Zhao's face could not see joy and anger, and he finally said so many words, and in the end, he couldn't say it inexplicably.

"If you have something to say, you might as well say it." Rounding around, I want to say but don't dare to say it, and I get angry when I look at it.

Third Uncle Chu looked at Chu Xun'er on the side, and a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, "Please also ask Madame to raise your noble hand for the sake of our two families being in-laws." "Chu Mi'er is a girl from the Chu family who has not yet come out of the cabinet, so she naturally has to protect her more. thought to herself, the Zhao family loves Chu Xun'er very much, and Chu Mi'er is her sister, and the Zhao family will leave a little thin noodles when she starts.

Yesterday, the Chu family was not at ease, and that night Chu Mi'er was called by the elders of the family, and asked him face to face, and he could answer a few words at the beginning, but he cried straight at the back, and his words were incoherent. At that time, he was angry and distressed.

In the end, it was the news from the palace, and no one dared to inquire more about His Majesty and the crown prince. Concubine Song Shu and King Nan'an were also worried about this matter, they were already at a loss, where did they dare to come out and clarify something. Going around and around, they had to come to the Song family to inquire.

He moved Chu Xun'er out so quickly, and Zhao almost didn't hold the teacup in his hand again. Hehe! For the sake of that girl, take out my daughter-in-law as a shield, this mother's family is really not a good product.

Chu Xun'er on the side lowered her head obediently and was silent, but she was lamenting in her heart, Third Uncle, my face is not so big! Husband, why haven't you come back! Chu Xun'er didn't have the face to see her mother-in-law, she knew that she should stay in the backyard with her sister-in-law, but she was quieter.

Zhao resisted the urge to smash the cup, gritted his back molars and spoke, "I let Wu'er quit and fulfill them, in your opinion, it is to push her into the fire pit?" Do you think that King Nan'an is not worthy of the girl of your Chu family? ”

A large hat snapped straight down.

"You can't talk nonsense." The wall has ears, and the king of Nan'an is a child of the royal family, so he must not say slanderous words, if it reaches His Majesty, he can't afford it.

"Mrs. Song, it's Mi'er who is not worthy of the king of Nan'an. Miss Wu'er and King Nan'an are a natural pair, and when His Majesty gives them marriage, they are even more close to each other, why not? We are already looking for someone to find for Mi'er, and we won't let her bother King Nan'an and Miss Wu'er. ”

Who wants you to be so kind! Why don't you take advantage of the situation and let Chu Mi'er marry her, why not! Zhao roared in his heart, King Nan'an can be with whoever he likes, anyway, it will definitely not be her Wu'er!

Seeing that the Zhao family was about to go crazy, Chu Xun'er hurriedly stepped forward to appease, "Mother, the third uncle came over today, mainly to apologize to his mother and sister." The third uncle is also concerned about chaos, so he will say so much useless. She gave Third Uncle Chu a look.

"Apologies? Xun'er, can't you see it yet? When your third uncle came here, every word he said didn't mean to apologize. On the contrary, I want not to meddle in the affairs between King Nan'an and your sister. ”

Obviously, it was her Chu Mi'er and King Nan'an who were not ashamed, and they were bumped into in secret. She just asked for justice for Wu'er, every sentence was true, these outsiders persuaded her to settle the matter, why did she have to endure this breath!

It's not that Chu Xun'er can't hear it, but after all, it's his third uncle and his sister.

Zhao patted Chu Xun'er to appease Chu Xun'er and asked her to go to the side hall to rest first. These two of the Chu family are dealt with by her.

"I'm afraid that the third uncle, you can't wait for Chu Mi'er to be with the king of Nan'an, whether it is the main wife or the side room, you can have a relationship with the king of Nan'an. That's right, wouldn't it be wonderful to take this opportunity to let the king of Nan'an marry in a dignified manner and sit in the position of a wife? In the future, they will definitely thank the third uncle for everything he has worked hard for them today, and be filial to you. ”

"You ......"

"What's wrong with me? Does Master Inmasa know that you're going to say such a bastard thing when you come here? I want to apologize, and at least show me your sincerity. Zhao laughed mockingly.

The third uncle couldn't say a word for a long time, his face turned red, and he didn't know if he was simply angry, or if he was pierced by Zhao Shi in his heart, and he was ashamed and indignant.

Looking at his appearance, Zhao didn't want to mention how happy he was. She looked at the butler of the Chu Mansion, who had been silent from beginning to end, and raised her eyebrows, "Butler, I think, you won't be like him, so unreasonable, right?" ”

"Don't be angry, madame. We had come to apologize for the ceremony, and the lord specially ordered me to prepare a generous gift for my wife. This happened suddenly, the third master also wanted to share the worries of my master, but he didn't sleep all night last night, and he was a little confused. ”

With a wave of his hand, the accompanying little guy immediately brought the gift to Zhao, which were two genuine paintings of everyone.

Zhao took a sip of tea, this person spoke well, and the gift was also in line with her heart, which made her anger suppress a few points.

"It's really a slurry. Since the gift has been given, go back as soon as possible to rest and rest, so as not to come out and talk nonsense again. Song Shipu changed into his usual clothes and walked slowly into the front hall.

"Shousuke-sama is taught."

"If you have time, let Mi'er come to visit her sister often, don't feel the water spilled by the married daughter!"

Song Shipu's words seemed to be meaningful, and the housekeeper of the Chu family looked clear and replied: "If Lord Shoufu speaks, the slave must bring it." ”

After the people of the Chu family left, the Zhao family came to Song Shipu and asked in a low voice: "Why does the third child of the Chu family seem to be a little afraid of this housekeeper?" ”

"Hmph, this third child has no ability, his mouth is not good, and he can't do things. The housekeeper is different, the Chu family has him to assist from the top and bottom, and everyone in the family has a part to speak. ”

Yo, I really can't see it, this housekeeper is really hidden.

In the side hall, Chu Xun'er couldn't help but sigh when she saw the people of the Chu family leaving, and Song Wu'er couldn't bear it, so she comforted her on the side.

After her second sister-in-law got married, she seemed to have broken off her relationship with the Chu family, and she rarely had any contact except for necessary visits. Chu Mi'er is her own sister, and she has come more often, but she hasn't stayed for a long time. Fortunately, her father and mother treated her well, and the second brother was the only one in his heart, not to mention the eldest brother and sister-in-law, these two were the most protective.

Zhao saw his daughter-in-law sighing like this, and his heart was distressed.

"The Chu family is too impertinent, tomorrow I will remind Chu Yuanzheng, no matter how much I prefer the youngest daughter, Xun'er is also his daughter-in-law."

"When the continuation comes back, let him go and coax him."

Song Xuye felt most sorry for her, and never couldn't bear to feel sad about her, although it was the Chu family's fault, she was also involved. Thinking of that son with developed limbs, Zhao had a headache. For the daughter-in-law to teach her mother-in-law, such a thing has been done more than once.

It's a big deal!
