CHAPTER XIX
Zhou Hong never thought that she would have a chivalrous heart, and secretly said: It's rare!
In the past few days, he has been thinking about a question repeatedly, and the words he heard from Gao Shiliang's mouth made him suspicious. Both of them came out of Fucheng, unless they were twin sisters, why did they imagine it like this?
One of these two people always lied.
Zhou Hong looked down at her, the sun hit her face, and she could see a layer of fine hairs on her face, as well as fine porcelain-like skin, white jade and flawless, but she didn't know what she felt in her heart.
He couldn't guess, so he could only knock on the side: "The surname Gao has come to pester me several times recently, and Cousin Han has also invited guests a few times, and he wants to ask you to come over." What the hell do you think about yourself? ”
In fact, Liu Han didn't treat him to the east recently, but Gao Shiliang handed over the post, but he refused to see it, and his surname Gao couldn't break in.
Zhou Hao mentioned: "Major General, you say...... Could Ye Zi really be the girl surnamed Yang that Gao Shiliang said?" She does not have the air of wind and dust, but has a kind of calm and generous of everyone's ladies, except for holding Zhou Hong's thigh at the beginning and not letting go, and then her behavior is 108,000 miles away from the happy woman.
Ye Zhiqing also seemed to be aware of Zhou Hong's suspicions, and she said: "I said in front of Mrs. Liu that day that it is impossible to follow Gao Shiliang. If the major general thinks that I am cumbersome, he can just return my household registration papers, and I can open a small shop in the market myself, and it will not be a problem to make ends meet. ”
She didn't know that when she mentioned Gao Shiliang, her expression on her face changed, with indescribable disgust. Originally, Zhou Hong was just suspicious, but it could be seen from her expression that it was not the first time she and Gao Shiliang had met, and I am afraid that there were some other entanglements between the two.
Zhou Hong unexpectedly remembered what Gao Shiliang said, he said that he and Qingniang had a private agreement for life, and she had already promised not to marry him!
If Ye Zhiqing and Yang Wanqing are really the same person, then she must have a deep grudge against Gao Shiliang. On the other hand, the deeper the attachment in the heart, the deeper the resentment.
The more Zhou Hong thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt in his heart, and he just wanted to dig out Ye Zhiqing's past in a moment or three, so that he could bring it to her for verification and see how much she cared about Gao Shiliang in her heart.
He himself couldn't tell what kind of mood this was, watching Ye Zhiqing's eyes gradually deepen, and finally didn't ask anything, only said: "Grandmother said that I want to go to the Jade Buddha Temple to pray for blessings in two days, let me be by the side when the time comes, and ask for a peace charm for the family by the way." ”
The Zhou family has been a gate for generations, and there are no eyes on the battlefield, and the Jade Buddha Temple in Beijing is the most effective, and many of the official eunuchs in Beijing like to go to the Jade Buddha Temple to pray for blessings. Mrs. Yu is worried about her children who have not returned, and Yu Ge's birthday has passed, and her daughters-in-law and grandchildren who will come back not long ago are going back, she is sad, so she wants to go to the Jade Buddha Temple to pray for the children and ask for a peace charm.
Ye Zhiqing is still very keen on going out. She hadn't even stepped out of the second gate since she entered Yufu, let alone on the street.
"Or ...... The young general helped me to say good things in front of the old lady, so that she could take me with her when she went out? Don't dare to say anything else, if the old lady is tired in the temple, I can still pinch the acupuncture points for her to loosen her muscles and bones. ”
Before Yu Hongyan and the others went in, Old Madam Yu was mentioning the matter to Zhou Hong, and she originally said that she would bring Ye Zhiqing with her: "...... I can't live without this girl now. It's really a lovely one, not only can I condition my body, but I will also talk to me. ”
Zhou Hong hesitated, and the old lady quipped: "Don't worry, my grandmother didn't think about robbing your girl, but before you left the capital, let her live by my side for a while, and it will be regarded as your filial piety in front of your grandmother!" ”
Before she fainted that day, she saw clearly that no matter how much her eldest daughter coerced and seduced, Ye Zi was unwavering, and even her grandson seemed reluctant to send people out. At the age of flowers and willows, Ye Zi is such an understanding little girl, and she has a lot of skills, so she feels that it is a pity to give it away.
Zhou Hong was quite embarrassed: "Don't hide it from my grandmother, the main grandson of Ye Zi really can't do it, I'm afraid she has to be willing." If it is anything else, if my grandmother likes it, my grandson will have to get it and send it to my grandmother even if it is in every danger, but Ye Zi is a big living person, and she stayed with me to repay her kindness, but I can't give her away as a gift. ”
Old Madam Yu suddenly laughed: "You can coax my wife!" Looking at my old age and stupidity, I'm getting better and better, right? But your grandmother likes to listen to this, and if you go to the temple tomorrow, you will follow your grandmother's convoy as a guard with a knife, and you will be filial to me. ”
"Dare to disobey!" Zhou Hong suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and responded with a smile.
However, Yu Hongya and others heard in Mrs. Yu's room that they could go to the Jade Buddha Temple to play in two days, and they were immediately excited. Yu Hongyu guessed Yu Hongya's thoughts, glanced at Yu Hongyan, and asked Mrs. Yu: "Grandmother, will Cousin Hong go then?" ”
Yu Hongyan heard her sister ask this, and immediately lowered her head nervously, played with the purse on her waist with one hand, and pricked up her ears to listen to Mrs. Yu's answer, until she heard the old lady say: "When the time comes, let your cousin be a guard outside the car, okay?" She finally breathed a sigh of relief.
On the day of departure, Yu Wenhui still made up her mind not to go out, she had been skipping rope in her room for three meals in the past two days, drinking tea, eating snacks and even meals, all according to Ye Zhiqing's list, and at the same time with acupressure massage, she felt that she seemed to have lost a little weight after two days of hard work.
Although her legs and arms were sore as if they weren't her own, because she had hope in her heart, she didn't think it was bitter, and said to Second Mrs. Yu: "Mother, when we go back to Luzhou, if my father sees me lose a lot of weight, I don't know if he will be shocked?" ”
Second Mrs. Yu said, "What if your father misunderstands that you have arrived in the capital and your grandmother doesn't give you a full meal?" ”
With Ye Zhiqing's recipe, Yu Wenhui was fed up with the ridicule of her cousins and was willing to insist on practicing, so she felt a lot more relieved.
Seeing that Yu Wenhui is also at the age of getting engaged, there are many people who are in the right place to pick a daughter-in-law, and they are reluctant to see Yu Wenhui's body shape. Of course, everyone likes a daughter-in-law who will be born and raised, but if it is too fat and hinders the appearance, many families are actually unwilling.
For this reason, the second lady Yu was about to die.
She was going to accompany her mother-in-law to the Jade Buddha Temple to offer incense today, so she could only tell Yu Wenhui: "If you don't want to go, forget it, your cousins are not good at it." Mother has to serve in front of your grandmother, and you should be good at home. ”
waited for Yu Wenhui to come down, and then the second lady Yu took the maid-in-law to the old lady Yu's room to gather.
Mrs. Yu is going to live in the Jade Buddha Temple for three days, add some sesame oil money, listen to the lecture in the temple, and calm down. She has been feeling hot lately, and she doesn't know if it's because of the weather or other reasons, but she is always very uncomfortable.
She was going out, and the two concubines of the Yu family, as well as Mrs. Zhong, who lived in the old mansion, and a group of girls had to follow, because they heard that they were going to live in the mountains for three days, and the maids and women brought by these people prepared a change of clothes, covers, and daily utensils for the masters.
Ye Zhiqing was with Mrs. Yu, she used to be a three-day tour and only needed to prepare a little change of clothes, who knew that when she went out, she was dumbfounded when she saw the long convoy.
- Is this moving?
In addition to the carriage where the masters sit, there is also the wagon that the maids and daughters-in-law sit in to pull things, she can't figure it out, how to go to the suburbs, and bring so many things?
But she was happy to see Zhou Hong again.
Zhou Hong was waiting next to Mrs. Yu's carriage, and Ye Zhiqing was supporting Mrs. Yu with Mama Lai left and right at the moment, inviting her to get into the carriage, and happened to face Zhou Hong, she showed a bright smile, and Zhou Hong, who was shaking, was almost dazzled, and said secretly: I really didn't find that this girl had such a warm temperament before, is it really because she has been in Yufu for too long?
Behind Old Madam Yu, followed by the carriage where several granddaughters of the Yu family were sitting.
As soon as Yu Hongyan raised her eyes, she saw Ye Zhiqing smiling at Zhou Hong's flattery, and suddenly felt that it was an eyesore, and she couldn't wait to step forward and pick off her skin.
A few days ago, she was still thinking about having a good relationship with Zhou Hong's girl, but now seeing Ye Zhiqing smiling at Zhou Hong, she changed her mind again, and she couldn't wait to drive Ye Zhiqing away from Zhou Hong's side when she had the opportunity.
Everyone got into the carriage, the convoy moved slowly, Yu Hongyan could see Zhou Hong riding a tall horse through a crack in the curtain of the car, as if nothing could shake him. It's just that soon, the curtain of Old Madam Yu's carriage was lifted, revealing a charming face, Ye Zhiqing didn't know what to say to Zhou Hong with a smile, and he even showed a smile on his face.
Yu Hongyan only felt that there was a thorn in her eyes, and she couldn't wait to cover her eyes, pretending not to see this scene.
Yesterday, Mrs. Yu also mentioned to her: "Speaking of which, your two cousins are not bad, Liu Han's family is noble, and your eldest uncle is from Jinshi; Your second uncle's martial arts generation is actually not bad, and Zhou Hong has military merits at a young age, but his future is better than that of Liu Han, the second ancestor. It's just that Zhou Hong is a military general, and the southeast coast has always been uneven, and he has to go to the battlefield again, and he has no eyes for swords and guns...... "Weighing comes and goes, the original idea of being close to each other is actually more contradictory, which one to choose as a son-in-law."
Yu Hongyan sat next to Mrs. Yu, blushing and lowering her head to listen to Mrs. Yu's troubles, and endured and endured it before she said her opinion: not to mention the family history of the two, just Liu Han and Zhou Hong, the former are the sons of the gentlemen, and live by their father's shadow; The latter is young and heroic, and has military merits, which one to choose, do you still need to hesitate?
