Chapter 202: The Might of the Hou Ye (II)

Before the banquet in the flower hall was set, a maid came and said, "The master asked the eighth aunt and grandmother to go to the old lady's room." (Niu Wen ~ Net)"

The smile on the eldest lady's face fell, "What's wrong?" ”

The maid said: "Master Hou knows that the old lady is sick and wants to go and see it, and the master said to let the eighth aunt and grandmother accompany Master Hou to go over." ”

The eldest lady nodded, looking sideways at Rong Hua, "Go quickly, don't let Hou Ye wait." ”

Rong Hua was blessed and was just about to leave.

The eldest lady instructed Rong Hua, "When you come out of the old lady's house with Hou Ye in a while, don't come to me, go directly to the flower hall, and I will let people set up a banquet." Without waiting for Rong Hua to speak, the eldest lady waved her hand again, "Go quickly." ”

As soon as Rong Hua went out, his uncle got up and looked at the clothes on his body, "How good is this, I didn't expect to meet Master Hou, is this dress rude." ”

The eldest lady smiled and said: "What kind of rudeness, he is the Hou Ye but also the uncle of our family, although the elder brother has no fame, he is the father of Concubine Jing......"

Mrs. Uncle hurriedly waved her hand and said, "That's different. My aunt and grandmother are common rich and noble people, and the handkerchief in the hand of the eighth aunt and grandmother just now is the same as what I saw in the noble person when I entered the palace, although it is not the first time that the makeup yarn and the best shark silk are used on the handkerchief, but the texture is different from the ordinary. If it weren't for the embroidered patterns on the handkerchief, I would really be the eighth aunt who didn't hold a silk in her hand. ”

The eldest lady couldn't help but put away her fingers when she heard this, but the wealth that Shuhua had never seen was seen in Ronghua.

The uncle and his wife smiled: "My aunt and grandmother are blessed to have such a daughter by her side." ”

Good luck? What's the use, after all, it's not her own, the belly of the compartment is the mountain, who knows what she thinks in her heart, unlike Shuhua and Yaohua, no matter what happens in the future, they are mother and daughter.

Thinking of Mrs. Shuhua's heart, she felt sour, but she sneered on her face, "You, you are new to Gyeonggi, you have never seen real wealth." In the future, I am afraid that your woman will not earn it for you. ”

Mrs. Uncle smiled, "That's right." ”

The eldest lady said: "Okay, let's go to the flower hall for a while, and the Hou Ye should also go." ”

……

Rong Hua saw Tao Zhengan, Tao Zhengan was behind Xue Mingrui, took a handkerchief to wipe his sweat, the whole person seemed to be very uncomfortable, and he was relieved to see Rong Hua coming.

Rong Hua stepped forward and shouted, "Father." ”

Tao Zhengan hurriedly said: "Rong Hua is here, hurry up...... Hou Ye was about to go to see the old lady. ”

Rong Hua raised his head to look at Xue Mingrui, Xue Mingrui's slender eyes narrowed, and there was no smile on his face.

Rong Hua walked between Xue Mingrui and Tao Zhengan, carefully looking at the expressions of the two people.

Tao Zhengan hooked his shoulders slightly and frowned, thoughtfully, his eyes were aimed at Xue Mingrui. Xue Mingrui was tall, wearing a dark blue dark striped robe, with a dark purple silk silk tied around his waist, his face was indifferent, but he looked businesslike when he pursed his lips, not like he was a guest at his father-in-law's house.

Xue Mingrui asked lightly, "How long has the old lady been sick?" ”

Tao Zhengan didn't wait for Rong Hua to reply, and had already preemptively said: "The old lady has some old diseases, and the family has never stopped Langzhong. ”

saw the corner of Xue Mingrui's eyes curled.

Tao Zhengan said again: "This time, thanks to Rong Hua, he invited the imperial doctor. ”

Xue Mingrui said "um" at this time.

The three of them went to see the old lady, and the old lady was quite polite in her words, "I'm still bothering the Hou Ye to come and see." ”

Xue Mingrui said: "It is our filial piety." ”

The old lady smiled slightly, "It's hard for you to remember, a few days ago, I heard that Master Hou was on the embankment, and the family couldn't help much, but I didn't expect that my old bones would become more and more useless and add to the chaos." Saying that, the old lady glanced at Tao Zheng'an, "My body is not a day or two, just now the imperial doctor also said that the eldest daughter-in-law's illness will also be cured, how many days has Rong Hua been married, don't always call Rong Hua back in the future." ”

Tao Zhengan didn't dare to say anything, and hurriedly agreed.

The old lady asked again, "How is Brother Hong reading over there?" ”

Rong Hua said: "I think it's quite beneficial. ”

The old lady smiled: "That's good, the family is peaceful, and the children and grandchildren can become successful, which is a serious matter." ”

Tao Zhengan's eyes darkened.

"I have informed Imperial Doctor Huang and asked him to come to ask for a pulse from time to time," his voice was clear and unavoidable, making it impossible to ignore, "The old lady is recuperating." ”

The old lady said kindly, "Good, good, good." On my side, you can rest assured, I will have someone carry a letter if there is anything. Saying that, he remembered something again, "I heard that yesterday the emperor rewarded Rong Huayun with a shoulder veil?" ”

Rong Hua lowered his head and smiled slightly, "It's the emperor's grace." ”

The old lady said: "Good boy, our Tao family has never had such glory. ”

Coming out of the old lady's house, Xue Mingrui went to ask the eldest lady to say goodbye, Xue Mingrui didn't talk much, just asked about the eldest lady's illness, and retired with Rong Hua.

After a while, Chen's mother came in and said, "Madam, Master Hou and Grandma Eight have gone back." ”

The eldest lady's eyes widened in shock, "What did you say?" ”

Chen's mother said: "Hou Ye and Eighth Aunt and Grandma went back without eating. ”

The eldest lady's chest was tight, and when she thought about today's events, almost all the blood rushed to her face, and she said sharply: "What the hell is going on?" What about the master? ”

Mother Chen said respectfully: "The master has gone to see off the Hou Ye and the eighth aunt." ”

The eldest lady almost struggled to get up when she heard this.

Mother Chen hurriedly stepped forward to help the eldest lady, "Probably because there is something, don't worry, Mrs., the master will come back in a while." ”

The eldest lady gritted her teeth, "You go and talk to Yaohua, let Yaohua go to the flower hall to accompany Mrs. Uncle, just say that there is something wrong with the Xue family, Hou Ye and Rong Hua will go first, and there will be opportunities in the future." ”

Chen's mother bowed her head in response.

Chen's mother went out of the house, and the eldest lady waited until Tao Zhengan came back from outside.

Tao Zhengan picked up the tea bowl and drank tea, and the eldest lady couldn't wait to ask, "What's going on?" Why don't you leave without eating? ”

Tao Zhengan said: "Naturally, there is something wrong, otherwise I wouldn't have come on purpose." In his heart, he secretly pondered Xue Mingrui's words.

"Something?" The eldest lady sneered, "The water spilled by the married daughter dislikes her mother's family before she is good, and she doesn't even want to serve a bowl of rice, but don't forget, but the Tao family's food raised her, and the family doesn't matter if you ask, please go back to the house, but she still puts Mrs. Yipin's shelf, if this is spread out, her face will be dull as Mrs. Yipin, even the emperor has to pursue filial piety, but she is just a Mrs. Yipin." ”

"That's enough," the eldest man put the teacup on the table, his eyes glared and said: "You are too short-sighted, look at these gifts in your house, the first thing Rong Hua did when he came back was to ask the imperial doctor to come and treat you, and just now he left a famous post to facilitate the family to invite the imperial doctor to come over, what else do you want outsiders to know?" ”

The eldest lady was stunned for a moment, her eyes looked at the gifts in the room, and the more she looked at it, the more angry her eyes became, "I knew she wasn't well-intentioned...... looks so filial on the outside, in fact, what is her meaning by us? No wonder even Yaohua said that she, the eighth sister, was polite and thoughtful, and handled things properly. ”

"This matter will be put on hold for now." Tao Zheng'an's face was gloomy.

The atmosphere in the room froze.

The eldest lady looked over suddenly, "What do you mean, master?" The gift for Concubine Jing is not sent to the palace? ”

Tao Zhengan thought thoughtfully, "Master Hou means that it's better to have less trouble." ”

When the eldest lady heard this, she suddenly sharpened her sharpness, "What's going on...... Hou Ye came to sit down, and the master's whole mind changed? ”

Tao Zhengan became irritable, "Now that the political situation is unclear, there is no harm in being cautious." After a pause, "Although you are sick in bed, you should also care about your mother, and your mother is sick for a few ** and she doesn't even know," the words also cooled down, "Let Hou Ye see the joke." He said no more, got up and walked out.

The eldest lady was anxious to stop Tao Zheng'an, but she didn't want to touch the soup cup next to the bed, and the soup water was spilled on the bed, and the eldest lady was suddenly angry and stretched out her hand to throw the soup cup on the ground.

The maids hurriedly came in to clean up when they heard the voice, and the eldest lady gritted her teeth with hatred, knowing that she should not be allowed to marry into the Xue family today, but she was deceived by her usual supple temperament, and hoped that she would be obedient...... really fed a wolf cub for nothing, saved her, and she turned her mouth and bit people.

……

Rong Hua turned his head to look at Xue Mingrui.

After getting into the car, he also stiffened his face, as if he was angry.

Could it be because she didn't tell him that she would go back to her parents' house today? It's just that she hasn't figured out what the hell is going on, how can she tell him?

Rong Hua still explained: "I have already thought of a way to refuse, and I will definitely not agree no matter what." ”

His slender eyes wrinkled, "Why didn't you say it last night?" ”

Rong Hua said: "I haven't figured out this matter yet, I don't know how to tell Master Hou, and besides, I have also thought of a way." ”

So I took the gift and went back to my mother's house thoughtfully, not only let the imperial doctor see the eldest lady's illness, but also carefully checked the pulse of the old lady, and everything was arranged carefully and thoughtfully.

Mrs. Tao was not her biological mother after all, and every time she looked at her with arrogance and suppression, she looked very uncomfortable. Although Rong Hua was just sacrificing the small and taking the big, he also felt that in front of Tao Zhengan, he simply ......

Xue Mingrui frowned.

Carrying everything by yourself and not relying on others is a habit or a way to protect yourself?

"I can count on." Reaching out and grabbing her, let her lean on his shoulder, his solid shoulders were very warm, the soft fabric pressed against her cheeks, his slender eyes flashed with a soft light, "From now on, you are no longer alone." ”

Rong Hua's eyes couldn't help but get hot.

"There's a restaurant on the other side of the street, and there are a few good signature dishes there, and I've already made a place for them."

Rong Hua raised his head to look at Xue Mingrui, "I'm afraid this is not good, eat ...... outside"

Xue Mingrui smiled slightly, "It's already past the time to eat when I return home, and when I ask why I didn't eat at my mother's house, what do you say?" ”

Rong Hua was speechless for a while, and then thought about it, it was just a meal, she could wait until the evening, and she didn't necessarily have to let the cook cook it again.

But Xue Mingrui has such an enthusiastic appearance, it is really inappropriate for her to oppose it now, besides, she has really never eaten outside, and every time she sees the various restaurants on the street, she can't help but be curious.

Xue Mingrui saw Rong Hua's wavering expression, and his slender eyes suddenly smiled.

The carriage stopped, and Xue Mingrui took out a white gauze hat to put on Rong Hua.

Rong Hua suddenly smiled, "Isn't this rude, no one is ...... like this?"

There was a white gauze in front of her, Rong Hua used her hand to hold the hat, if she raised her head at this moment, she would find that Xue Mingrui's slender and distant eyebrows were also full of smiles.

……

I really didn't expect to eat so much, the house has also made West Lake vinegar fish but it is not as delicious as the restaurant, especially the few dim sum she loves to eat, Xue Mingrui also bought some more.

Back at Xue's house, Xue Mingrui changed his clothes and went to the yamen, Rong Hua was resting on the chaise longue, he was sleepy, and Jinxiu's voice came from his ears, "Young lady, young lady, the palace has come to the will." ”

Rong Hua opened his eyes and hurriedly sat up from the chaise longue.

Chunyao entered the house and called Hongying and Hongyu to wait for Rong Hua to change his clothes, everything was ready, and Rong Hua hurriedly walked to the old lady's house.

Seeing the old lady Rong Hua, she hurriedly saluted.

The old lady smiled, "Come and sit down, the waiter should wait a while to arrive." ”

Rong Hua sat down and said a few words to the old lady, the old lady asked about the old lady Tao's illness, Rong Hua's eyes were sour, "Imperial Doctor Huang said that it is not very good, and he can only try acupuncture, and my grandmother has been ill for many years." ”

The old lady sighed, "This kind of illness is afraid of hurting the internal organs. In the early years, the palace gave me a few pills and three treasures, and after a while, you took two pills and ordered someone to send them back, which can come in handy when it is critical. ”

Rong Hua nodded, "Thank you, old lady." ”

The old lady said, "Look at you, child, what are you polite to me." ”

As he was talking, someone sent a message into the house, "The lieutenant is here." ”

Rong Hua hurriedly helped the old lady get up.

The lieutenant entered the door, and Rong Hua looked over, this chamberlain she had seen with the Queen Mother.

The waiter stepped forward and saluted familiarly, and the old lady exchanged a few words with the waiter, and hurriedly invited the waiter to sit down.

The chamberlain smiled: "The queen mother asked our family to ask the eldest princess." ”

The old lady hurriedly thanked her.

Only then did the chamberlain say what he meant, "The queen mother means to set up a banquet to invite several ladies, all for the court to share worries and solve problems, the queen mother is worried," said and deliberately looked at Mrs. Wu Muhou, who had been standing beside the old lady, "The queen mother said, Mrs. Wu Muhou must go." As he spoke, he took out the palace card with the date and time written on it.

Rong Hua hurriedly stepped forward and bowed down to take it.

When she heard that someone was coming from the palace, she guessed in her heart...... It was really as she expected, did Concubine Jing already know that the Queen Mother would make this move, so she would test it first, or ......

Rong Hua thought about it, and the waiter had already gotten up and said goodbye, "Our family has other things to do, so we will retire first." ”

The old lady was busy asking people to give gifts, and the waiter accepted it with a smile.

Rong Hua slowly put away the palace card in his hand, is it a blessing or a curse to enter the palace this time? Everything is unpredictable, especially in the deep palace, you can only bow down and obey orders, and once you do something wrong, I am afraid that you will ...... What's more, there is still Concubine Jing in front of me, no matter how you think about it, it won't be so simple.

What's going to be tight next.
