Chapter 555: Kneel
Zhao had already seen Mama Liu and the others who came out first, and she was still guessing who this decent middle-aged woman was headed, and whether it would be some lady in this family.
At this time, when I heard Mama Liu respectfully call Zhang Wusi, my heart turned around, and I couldn't help but be taken aback. Such a decent woman is just a servant woman?
So, since she's just a servant, don't you have to be polite to her? Lest you make people look down on yourself?
Thinking so, Zhao subconsciously made contact with Mama Liu, and immediately lowered his momentum after holding himself up for half a while, and said with a slightly embarrassed smile: "Sister-in-law is polite, you are polite." Then he looked around again, but still didn't see his son, and couldn't help frowning slightly, but he didn't say anything.
Ye Xinyan stepped back, letting Zhang Wusi and his son accompany Zhao to the hospitality room, and she followed behind. To be honest, she was a little worried about Zhou Biguio. This Zhao is probably a self-reliant mother, but not necessarily a good mother-in-law. What's more, the Zhao family also brought a cousin of Wang Qiao.
Xiuqin held Zhao's arm tightly, saying that it was supporting, it was better to hug it tightly. Before turning around, he glanced at Ye Xinyan nervously again, and then walked next to Zhao and walked towards the waiting room.
Zhang Wusi sensed the nervousness of the Zhao family, and while walking, he also relaxed and asked them how they were on the road and whether the family was settled properly.
After a few words, I arrived at the door of the hospitality room. Jiuyu took the lead in raising the curtain and letting them go in.
Na Xiuqin first shrank for a moment, and then boldly glanced at Jiuyu up and down, and then followed Zhang Wusi and the Zhao family into them. When passing by Jiuyu, Xiuqin seemed to raise her chin and looked at Jiuyu stunned.
In the reception room, Yin sat in the top position, Zhou Biyao stood beside him, and Qi Younian sat on the chair on the side.
Seeing Zhang Wusi and the Zhao family coming in, Qi Younian got up and took a step forward, and said, "The seventh brother and sister are here, and they have worked hard all the way. ”
Zhao and Qi Younian haven't seen each other for more than ten years, and when they met at this time, they were also sad, so they hurriedly let go of Xiuqin, took two steps, and saluted Qi Younian: "My brother-in-law has seen my eldest brother." ”
Qi Younian waved his hand and said, "Our own people, no need to be polite." The seventh brother and sister came to meet Mrs. Shizi first. Then he said to Yin, "Madam, this is my seventh brother's daughter-in-law, Wang Qiao's mother, Zhao." ”
When Zhao entered the door, he saw a rich and luxurious beautiful lady sitting in the front of the house, and knew that this was the mother of the eldest lady just now, the wife of the prince of the country that Zhang Quanxi said.
When I first entered the door, I didn't dare to look at it because I was afraid of being rude, but when I heard Qi Younian's introduction, I let go of my courage and raised my eyes to look at Yin.
At this glance, there was a panic in my heart. Such a person, and these poor and white people, the identity is very different, right?
Zhao was flustered, and hurriedly curtsied, "The women meet Madame, please be in peace with Madame." As he spoke, his legs went a little weak. Fortunately, she had Mama Liu by her side, and she held her and looked at Yin.
Yin said with a smile: "Mrs. Zhao doesn't need to be polite, I have been watching Ah Qiao do things these days, it is very rare that child, speaking of which, we are all our own people." As he spoke, he motioned to Cui Bai, "Quickly invite Mrs. Zhao to sit down." ”
Zhao hurriedly thanked him, and introduced Xiuqin: "This is my niece Xiuqin, thanks to Xiuqin accompanying the women in the past few years, the women will not be too lonely and desolate." Xiuqin, come and give a gift to Mrs. ”
Ye Xinyan in the back looked at Zhou Biyao, and sure enough, she saw Zhou Biyao's face surprised, and then looked at Zhao, her eyes sank, and she withdrew her gaze a little gloomily.
Xiuqin stumbled to greet Yin, and was asked by Cuibai to sit next to Zhao.
Zhang Wusi and Ye Xinyan sat at the bottom of Qi Younian in turn.
Zhao sat down, saw a delicately dressed and beautiful maid bring tea, and hurriedly thanked him. After taking the teacup, he cautiously asked Qi Younian, "Big brother, why didn't you see Ah Qiao?" Isn't he there? ”
Before Qi Younian could speak, Zhang Wusi first said "hey" and said with a smile: "Look at me, I should have told my younger brother and sister just now, after a few salutes, I forgot about it." Ye Xinyan pursed her lips, probably not because she forgot to see the ceremony, but because your seventh brother and sister brought a girl, which was unexpected by everyone, so you forgot to mention Wang Qiao, right?
I only heard Zhang Wusi continue: "The imperial court wants to do a big project, and some things are used in it, and skilled craftsmen are needed to give them some guidance. Because the matter was urgent, Ah Qiao led people to the capital two days ago to do things. ”
"Chao, court?" Zhao's eyes widened, "A-Qiao went to the capital?" Guiding the imperial court's big project? ”
Zhang Wusi smiled: "Yes, our Aqiao can do it now, and he is no longer the kid who does things for Shuimu." ”
Zhao looked at Qi Younian again. Although Zhao has not seen Qi Younian for more than ten years, she is absolutely trustworthy in her husband's character and reputation for worshipping her eldest brother.
Qi Younian smiled and nodded: "The fortifications of the imperial court are more urgent, and some utensils are used in the project, and the craftsmen of the imperial court engineering department have not done it, so let Ah Qiao go over to point out." The seventh brother and sister can rest assured, it is not a very difficult thing, Aqiao will be able to come back after the New Year. ”
"That's right." Zhao was relieved. His own son is really angry, and when he followed the head and did things in the past, he was an exceptionally good. Now that she is so promising, she even has to find Ah Qiao for things that the court can't do, and she, who is a mother, can be regarded as bitter.
Thinking like this, when Zhao looked at Ye Xinyan and Yin again, he didn't seem so uneasy. With a turn of her eyes, she saw Zhou Biyao standing behind Yin, this woman's appearance and dress were very different from other maids.
Zhao immediately remembered the letter that Zhang Quanxi brought, and the family matter mentioned by Brother Qi in the letter was .......
"Madame Shizi, who is that girl?" Zhao looked at Zhou Biyao and cautiously asked Yin.
Yin was still thinking about how to introduce Zhou Baguio to Zhao. It's just that she didn't know what Zhao meant, so she was a little hesitant. It is said that the letter that Old Man Qi brought to the Zhao family should be very clear, why did the Zhao family bring a girl? And she kept saying that she was thanks to this girl for her company.
What does that mean?
Although Yin hesitated, since Zhao asked, no matter what she meant, she said Zhou Biyao's identity at this time, and by the way, she also looked at Zhao's attitude.
Yin said with a smile: "This is the second lady of the prefect's family in Yuyuan County, named Zhou Biyao. I've been following Ah Yan and Ah Qiao to do ......"
Before Yin's words were finished, Zhao quickly stood up, took two steps forward, grunted, and knelt down in the direction of Zhou Biyao, "It turned out to be the young lady of the prefect's family, the folk woman has no form, in front of Miss Zhou, where is there a seat for a humble person like a folk woman." ”
