Chapter 50: A Seat on the Ground
"Yes, my mother is beautiful." As soon as she mentioned her mother, Zhang Bihua became energetic, "When my mother was young, she was a great beauty." ”
Zhou Zhengzheng remembered his impression of the Zhang family in his previous life, it was indeed like this, Zhang Bihua's mother was very beautiful, and Zhang's parents were a typical model couple in the style of strict father and mother.
The two of them chatted like this. The conversation was very speculative.
Soon, Mo Xiang brought spices over, Zhang Bihua asked for them, and asked Zhou Zheng if he liked it.
Zhou Zhengzheng said: "I like it." ”
Zhang Bihua asked for a pack of Zheng Zheng for Zhou Zheng.
Zhou Zheng didn't shirk it, let Mo Xiang sift out a little of each spice, put it into the purse she had prepared early in the morning, and gave it to Zhang Bihua.
The purse was embroidered with two golden orchids, which seemed to mean worshipping as a golden orchid.
Zhang Bihua happily accepted, introduced herself and invited Zhou Zhengzheng to come to her house to play.
Zhou Zheng agreed, but at a certain time, "Since we both like spices, we will always meet here, and I will visit your house when the time comes, and you are not allowed to ignore me." ”
Zhang Bihua and Zhou Zheng reluctantly separated.
Zhou Zhengzheng can be regarded as a foreshadowing in Zhang Bihua's heart, and when the relationship with Zhang Bihua is good, he will go to discuss business with the Zhang family, and there will be more chances of success.
When Zhou Zheng went back, suddenly a carriage made of black paulownia wood drove over, and Zhou Zheng couldn't dodge it and almost crashed into it.
The carriage stopped in front of Qingxiangzhuang, and a young man of twelve or thirteen years old came down from the carriage, with a face like a crown of jade, dressed in an onyx green robe, and saluted Zhou Zheng and said, "I'm really sorry, little brother, I didn't hit you." ”
Zhou Zhengzheng glanced at him a few times, it turned out to be him.
He is Wen Taiyi Wen Ci, who will inherit his father's business in the future, but he is still just a naughty teenager.
In the last days of being locked up in her previous life, she relied on his medicine to live a few more springs and autumns.
The Wen family has been a doctor for generations, and Master Wen has a son in old age, so he loves Wen Ci very much, Wen Ci's medical skills are not very advanced, and Master Wen is reluctant to discipline.
Fortunately, Wen Ci can also be regarded as a famous teacher, no matter how bad he is, he can be a doctor, besides, Wen Ci's eldest sister entered the palace as a concubine, but she was only a few years younger than Xiao Guifei, and she only gave birth to a princess for many years, but this is okay, there is no prince, she is old again, she belongs to the level of old age and decay, and she does not compete for favor, and she usually likes to have a good relationship with the princesses, but her popularity is very good.
No imperial concubine will regard her as an enemy to seize the heir, but Concubine Wen lives a peaceful and stable life, left and right. As a result, the Wen family is also on the rise, and it also has a place in the imperial court.
Wen Ci also has a little sister who is the same age as Zhou Zhengzheng. But this girl's fate in her previous life was a bit tragic.
When Wen Ci saw that Zhou Zheng was in a daze, and saw that Zhou Zheng was born with smooth skin, and her ear piercings were looming in the hair, she knew that she was a daughter - Wen Ci was naughty, and she had been to Fengyue at a young age, who had never seen it, how could she not recognize it in a woman's disguised as a man, so she said: "Little brother, are you really fine?" Or, I'll send you to Lang Zhong to see. ”
Zhou Zheng reacted as if he had just woken up from a dream, thinking that it was better to give himself more business if he had wasted such a big guest, so he said: "Young Master Wen, if you really feel guilty, why don't you come to Qingxiangzhuang to buy a few more spices." This is what my friend opened. ”
Wen Ci didn't expect Zhou Zheng to call out his surname, no, his carriage has no mark, where did this girl see him?
However, he usually plays a lot outside, and maybe it is normal to be noticed silently, thinking so, Wen Ci regarded Zhou Zhengzheng as a girl who admired him, and said, "Is this your friend's spice shop?" My mother wants me to bring him some spices, so I'll go in and have a look. ”
Zhou Zheng turned around and was about to leave, Wen Ci saw that Zhou Zheng was strange and very interested, so he said: "Little brother, why don't you come in too, I invite you to have a cup of tea, just take it as an apology." Later, I can send you back too. ”
Zhou Zhengzheng didn't want to leave the Guogong Mansion for too long, so he politely declined and got into his carriage and left.
Wen Ci hurriedly asked the little guy to secretly follow Zhou Zhengzheng's carriage.
In the evening, Mo Xiang sent a letter to Zhou Zhengzheng, saying that Wen Ci had bought half of the spices in Qingxiangzhuang at once, and had never met such a big guest, so the inventory was suddenly insufficient.
Zhou Zheng could only beg Narcissus to take a five-day holiday and manage the store on behalf of Moxiang, and on these five days, Moxiang went to the back house and concentrated on making spices, striving to make more copies.
Wen Ci was so generous, which was expected by Zhou Zhengzheng, but Zhou Zheng may not know that Wen Ci already knew that her carriage had returned to the Wu State Mansion.
"It turns out that the girl is from the Duke of Wu's mansion." Wen Ci wasn't sure if she was a young lady or a slave maid in the Guogong Mansion, after all, in a place like the Guogong Mansion, a slave and maid would come out at random, and she would seem to have the style of a young lady.
It's just that the curiosity about Zhou Zheng has added another layer.
Even when he went to the palace to chat with Lin Zhongchao, he also mentioned this matter.
It turned out that Wen Ci often went in and out of the palace with Imperial Doctor Wen because of the relationship with Imperial Doctor Wen, and had dealings with several princes, but he was the best with Lin Zhongchao.
Lin Zhongchao kept filial piety, and Wen Ci also followed Imperial Doctor Wen to worship the prince.
"A girl from the Duke of Wu's mansion?" Lin Zhongchao smiled faintly, and the moment he raised his head, his eyes glowed with the brilliance of black jade, "The girl from the Wu Guogong Mansion is not easy to know." Who doesn't know the gate of the Duke of Wu's mansion, and even the prince doesn't receive it, let alone ......"
Wen Ci's eyes blinked: "They don't accept the prince because they don't want the emperor to have ideas, as for our Wen family, they are just civil officials, and they have a very good reputation in the palace of the court, so I'm not afraid that they won't accept me." ”
Lin Zhongchao said: "So you have to go?" ”
Wen Cimo rubbed the jasper on his waist and nodded, "That girl is so interesting, I can't help but want to get to know her." ”
At this time, Wen Ci didn't think that she was the eldest daughter of the Duke of Wu's mansion, and thought that she was some kind of concubine or the concubine of the second and third rooms.
Lin Zhongchao listened to Wen Ci's description, and vaguely guessed that the girl was Zhou Zhengzheng, but what did Zhou Zhengzheng do in Qingxiangzhuang?
He was actually very curious, but it was inconvenient to inquire, so he said, "If you go to the Wu Guogong Mansion and run into a wall, don't blame me for not reminding you." ”
Wen Ci touched his forehead, "My head is hard, and I'm not afraid of hitting a wall." ”
Wen Ci really went to knock on the door of Wu Guogong's Mansion the next day, Zhou Jinxuan happened to be absent, and it was Zhou Bin in the second room who received him.
Wen Ci naturally didn't see Zhou Zheng as he wished, but Zhou Bin learned about the relationship between Zhou Zheng and Qingxiangzhuang from Wen Ci.
