Chapter 10: The Return of the Enemy

The old Duchess was moved, and she has been focusing on Guiren for the past few days, but she forgot that there is such a small intimacy around her.

"Grandmother, give." Zhou Zhengzheng personally stuffed almond crisp into the mouth of the old Duchess of the country.

The sweet and greasy taste made the old Duchess feel happy and guilty, and the red coral tree that she originally wanted to give to Zhou Yunluo tomorrow was also rewarded to Zhou Zheng.

"Ah Zheng is really sweet." The old Duchess touched Zhou Zheng's head and said, "I still remember that my grandmother's favorite snack is almond cake." ”

Zhou Zheng said: "Grandmother, this coral tree was given to me, so won't there be no Sister Yunluo tomorrow?" It's better to have a pair of little golden figures in my room, and I can give them to Sister Yunluo. ”

Lin Yu said: "It was still brought out of the palace, and Ah Zheng was reluctant to play with it on weekdays." ”

The old Duchess looked at Zhou Zheng with satisfaction, "Ah Zheng knows the harmony of sisters at a young age, which matches the identity of the concubine raised by our Guogong Mansion." I'm afraid that Yunluo is not as well-behaved and cute as her. As for this little golden figure, it is not only a Zheng baby, but also a treasure in the palace, so naturally you can keep it. ”

The things in the palace, of course, were rewarded by the Queen Mother, no matter how big the old Duchess was, she couldn't be as big as the Queen Mother, so where did she dare to take the reward for Zhou Yunluo?

Lin Yu said: "That daughter-in-law thanked her mother on behalf of Ah Zheng. ”

The old Duchess nodded, looking at Zhou Zheng's black eyes, the more she looked at it, the more pleasing it became, but she felt much more comfortable than looking at Zhou Yunluo, "Ah Zheng must remember that no matter what happens outside the Guogong Mansion in the future, we must be unanimous in our house, this is the grandeur of being a daughter of a family." ”

Zhou Zhengzheng nodded seriously, and lowered his eyebrows suppressed the hatred in his eyes. In her previous life, she didn't think like this, she hoped that the brothers and sisters in the house would be of one mind, but Zhou Yunluo's father and daughter didn't think like this!

This big Guogong Mansion is outside of gold and jade, and it has long been defeated. Zhou Bin came for the position of the Duke of Guo, how could he be willing to agree with them?

"Yes, grandmother." On the surface, he still responded obediently.

The coral tree was carried into the boudoir, Zhou Zhengzheng took a deep breath, and the energy had not been wasted in the past month, and the old duchess finally looked at her differently.

If it weren't for loving Zhou Zheng even more, the old Duchess would never have given Zhou Yunluo the reward that was originally going to be given to Zhou Zheng.

Although because of the relationship between her second son, the old Duchess loves the house and Wu, and likes Zhou Yunluo, who can speak well, but the feelings are out, no matter how good Zhou Yunluo is, she has not been by her side in the past two years, but she is just a child, and the old Duchess naturally prefers Zhou Zhengzheng, who has been by her side every day for more than a month.

"It's just the beginning of the fun." Zhou Zheng's jade-like eyes revealed a gloomy coldness.

The sun is like blue, the lake in the courtyard of the Duke of Wu reflects the ice blue sky, the craggy rockery, the lacquer surface of the pavilion is not dry, and the relief on the curved railing of white marble is still shining with the luster of dew.

In the peach orchard, the falling flowers are gradually flying.

The days of peach blossoms are too short, and Zhou Zheng spreads the canvas, wanting to use the brush to retain this ephemeral beauty.

Outside the peach orchard, flowers are in full bloom, and the spring is infinitely good.

Qingyun stepped on the falling flowers and walked over, and said in Zhou Zhengzheng's ear that Zhou Bin's family had come, and Lin Yu received them and met the old Duchess, and they went back to the courtyard after receiving a full reward. The county lord of Yongan also followed closely and was playing with Zhou Yunluo.

Zhou Zhengzheng listened quietly, but his eyes were fixed on the canvas, and when Qingyun finished speaking, he said coldly: "Your peach blossom cake is getting better and better, send a few boxes to the third aunt to taste it too." ”

Qingyun didn't expect Zhou Zhengzheng to be indifferent to Zhou Yunluo, but remembered her peach blossom cake, "Yes." "Won the master's praise, Qingyun's steps were exceptionally brisk.

Zhou Zhengzheng raised his eyes and looked at the lake, his calm and waveless eyes were filled with vast smoke waves, which made it impossible to see clearly.

In her previous life, it was also on this day that she took the initiative to find Zhou Yunluo, but under Zhou Yunluo's design, she had a conflict with the county lord of Yong'an.

In this life, she doesn't want to please Zhou Yunluo anymore, even if she doesn't want to do superficial work.

Lin Yu sent a slave to urge her a few times, but Zhou Zheng only said that she was unwell today and couldn't come over.

Lin Yu was not reluctant.

But in Zhou Yunluo's opinion, this is very unexpected.

At this time, in Chunhui Courtyard, Zhou Bin's wife Sun was beckoning the slaves and maids to tidy up the various rooms, Zhou Yunluo was covered with a carved silk gown embroidered with rich and noble flowers, and attacked the skirt of Jiangnan Soft Yanluo, with a turquoise ring hanging from her waist, a five-petal plum blossom gemstone buckle embedded in her chest, and a pair of red gold jade leaf golden cicada pendants hanging on her ears.

Zhou Yunluo has always regarded Zhou Zhengzheng as a fool, and encouraged Zhou Zhengzheng to wear plain clothes, she herself is dressed rich and elegant, and when people outside the mansion see it, they only think that Zhou Yunluo is the eldest daughter of the big house, and all eyes will fall on Zhou Yunluo.

This is what Zhou Yunluo enjoys the most.

But at this time, her beautiful face was angry.

originally thought that he would get the red coral tree of the old Duchess of the country, but who knew that the old Duchess had rewarded Zhou Zheng early.

Isn't Zhou Zheng a fool? A fool who has no friends and only knows how to stick to himself all day long, why hasn't he come to play with her with joy now?

and Zhou Zhengzheng's foolish brother Zhou Yuheng, why didn't he come? I heard that at the suggestion of Zhou Zhengzheng, he was sent to the teacher's house to learn poetry, so he didn't come to greet them.

In this way, except for Lin Yu, none of the big houses came out to greet their second room, which made the second room a family.

What's more, the old Duchess didn't mean to blame the second room for poor hospitality at all.

Zhou Yunluo was in a depressed mood, and she didn't even pay attention to playing with the master of Yongan County. The county lord of Yong'an felt bored and angry, so he left without saying anything.

"Yunluo, mother's heart, why did you let the county lord of Yongan go? She had brought all her baggage with her this time, and she was planning to stay with us for a while. Sun hurriedly walked in.

This Sun's maiden family is the illustrious Xiping Marquis Mansion, although the Sun family is just a concubine, but it was raised by the side of the Sun family's eldest lady, Mrs. Sun did not give birth to half a daughter, Sun's biological mother is a relative of Mrs. Sun, so that Mrs. Sun also regarded her as her own daughter, and sought a family affair for her second son of the Duke of Wu.

If the family background of the Sun family is abandoned, a concubine can marry a second son, which can be regarded as the Sun family's high climbing. But the family rules of the Wu Guogong Mansion have been established early, the family business and title are only passed on to the eldest son and eldest grandson, and the second son has to obtain his own fame, and at most a small number of family properties are set up on his own, which is no different from the concubine.

At the beginning, Zhou Bin also valued the Sun family's family business, so he married the Sun family.
