Soon after, Shen Dangu hurriedly arrived, in front of Minpinghou and Zhuo Fangchun and others, he thought for a while, and then waved a letter to tell the sick and ask for the prince to enter the table, and held Minpinghou to look at it, Minpinghou shook his head and said: "I'm 'mental' and tired now, you just show them." ”

Shen Dangu handed it to Zhuo Fangchun according to his words: "Uncle, please take a look." ”

Zhuo Fangchun took it with a complicated mind, and the handwriting was like flowing water, and then looked at the text, the wording and sentences, all of which were inappropriate and respectful and humble, which was very in line with the attitude that the Zhuo family should have at this moment.

He took the watch in his hand for a long time and didn't make a sound, thinking that his father liked this kid, before the age of the weak crown, just by virtue of this calligraphy, he can be called a handsome man, and what is even more rare is that he is so sophisticated and skillful in writing this table, where is the grasp of the situation and the understanding of the intention that ordinary scholars can compare? Longyou prodigy, sure enough, his name is true.

Zhuo Fangchun didn't like Shen Dangu very much, and now seeing Shen Dangu so 'colorful', his dislike in his heart was even better, and he secretly thought, if my poor child hadn't been poisoned by the Shen family, now he has mediocre qualifications, and he can always comfort the loneliness under his knees, better than seeing others enjoying the joy of family, but he is cold, and even his wife can only rely on spoiling the 'daughters' to relieve his boredom.

In front of Minpinghou, he didn't say anything, only transferred the table to Zhuo Xiaoli, the second room and the third room have always had no opinions, and they can't pick anything out in Zhuo Fangli's hands, and Zhuo Fangya will not dismantle Shen Dangu's platform, just like that, Minpinghou asked Shen Dangu to copy it in block letters, and after the ink was dry, he asked Zhuo Fangchun and others to leave to prepare for the present table in the dynasty tomorrow, but left Shen Dangu alone: "Let Dangu take care of it here tonight, don't bother." ”

This night, Minpinghou didn't know what to say to Shen Dangu, all in all, early the next morning, Shen asked Aunt Shen to help, tremblingly wanted to see Minpinghou, but was stopped by the chief manager Zhuo Ye, let Shen beg softly or loudly reprimanded, Zhuo Ye never moved, until Zhuo Fangchun and others returned from the court, Shen also failed to see Minpinghou, so he could only return to his house with hatred.

Zhuo Fangchun didn't care about it after knowing the news, because the sage had already approved the invitation of Marquis Minping, and even gave a century-old ginseng, this kind of ginseng is not nothing, but there is a gift, and it is now the 'medicine' material for the occasion, which also shows compassion, and now the Zhuo family wants this compassion.

Originally, it was a happy event to establish a prince, even if you don't invite outsiders, you should always celebrate in your own home, but now that Minpinghou has woken up, he has not recovered, and the words of celebration can't be raised, but after the letter of Zhishi and the invitation to the prince was approved, there were also people who came to the 'door' to visit, and it did not quickly plummet to the point that the 'door' court was cold, so it can be seen that the old ginseng still has some effect.

To the surprise of the Zhuo family, the Marquis of Yongcheng actually came, and Ning Shaobi naturally wanted to accompany him.

The Marquis of Yongcheng was received by the prince Zhuo Fangchun in the upper room, accompanied by the Marquis of Minping, and Ning Shaobi found an excuse to run to the fourth room.

In Ning Shaobi's mind, although it was not Zhuo Fangli who attacked the lord, but the previous disobedience in the fourth room had been overshadowed, and Zhuo Zhaojie was not a person who attached great importance to this, this will make Min Pinghou wake up and be on the table again, I don't think I should be worried anymore, I don't want to meet Zhuo Zhaojie in the fourth room, but I frowned tightly, and when I saw him, my eyes were evasive, and I spoke in a slurred manner, Ning Shaobi is cunning, and she is a good hand at coaxing people, where can I not see that she has something in her heart, or even shortness of breath and weakness?

He became suspicious, and when he asked on the side, Zhuo Zhaojie was really weak-hearted, and he was forced to ask a few questions, but he couldn't resist it, and turned his heart sideways, and said, "Okay, let me tell you, that's the case...... The dough is gone. ”

Ning Shaobi had already forgotten the little lion cat to the clouds, and after thinking for a while, she said, "You said that lion cat?" ”

"Yes, on the day of the seventh brother's wedding, I took it to see my mother because of a little thing, and accidentally pinched it when I was talking in the middle, and it grabbed me and ran away, and everyone on the side was busy seeing if I was hurt, but no one remembered to look for it, but I didn't find it today." Zhuo Zhaojie resigned himself to fate, his eyes were staring at his fingers, his fingers were twisted in his handkerchief, and he whispered, "The third room and the fifth room have been asked, but I haven't seen it, these days, I'm afraid ...... I'm afraid it's hard to find it. ”

Ning Shaobi frowned, and asked first, "Show me your hand." "Without waiting for Zhuo Zhaojie to speak, he first took his hands and took a look, and saw that there were no scars on his head, so he eased his face and hummed, "It's a big fate, I gave it to you to relieve boredom, this beast is so bold that he dares to move his claws on his master, if he finds it, this kind of thing that betrays the master should also be hanged alive!" ”

These words were not specially said to please Zhuo Zhaojie, Ning Shaobi really thought so, he was just strong, although he was also well-versed in literature and ink, but in essence, there was a big gap between him and Fengyue Yashi, and he still advocated plagiarism and bravery, when he thought about it, only the birds of prey such as drinking abyss and drinking streams that fight in the sky and are fierce and sharp are qualified to spend their efforts and be treated like left and right arms, such as the lion cat for literati and scholars to enjoy, or the 'women' and 'noble' Women's raising, with the appearance of cute and delicate pets to please the owner, no matter how pet is just an object, happy to pet a pet, unhappy want to kill want to fight that is a trivial matter, as for the lion cat is worth a lot of money, worth a thousand gold, with Ning Shaobi's background where can this little daughter in the eyes?

"......," Zhuo Zhaojie said embarrassedly, "how big is it, it can't hurt me." And said, "This lion cat is so precious, or do you come to Princess-Yikang especially ......" In the end, Zhuo Zhaojie is a little lady, and she still likes Xue Tuan'er's dough very much, and now she 'gets' lost, although Ning Shaobi doesn't care, she finally feels a little sorry for him, while speaking, she subconsciously re-pinched the veil again, and her eyes fluttered.

Ning Shaobi said disapprerovingly: "No matter how precious it is, it's nothing more than a beast, isn't it just to please you by raising it well?" I don't want it to hurt people, so how can I stay? Having said that, he was still very happy that Zhuo Zhaojie valued the lion cat he sent so much, and after thinking about it, he said, "Although the lion cat looks tame, but the claws and teeth are sharp, it is inevitable that there will be losses, I am negligent, since this one is lost, it is lost, if you like to raise these things, how about I 'get' a parrot for you in a few days?" The one with the chain on it can't easily run, and it can't peck it if it doesn't get close. ”

Zhuo Zhaojie sighed and said, "It's better not to do it first, I don't have the heart to raise anything at home now." ”

"Then I'll get you something else to have fun." Ning Shaobi said with concern, "Isn't Minping Hou bad for the fourth room now?" ”

Zhuo Zhaojie cupped his cheeks and said sullenly: "I can't say it's bad, after all, I ...... before Now my grandfather has let us go, but these days, I heard that Shen Dangu accompanies my grandfather more than my uncle's Chenguang, I heard the rumors in the people that my grandfather is now an uncle, it may not be sincere, but just look at the holy will, and have to do it, just look at the grandfather's love for Shen Dangu, maybe the rumors have passed, and the grandfather will find an excuse to pass the title to the fifth uncle - you also know, this time, the fifth uncle was originally on the top of the tank, I'm afraid that this is the case, Father and mother are angry again. ”

Ning Shaobi smiled and asked, "What about the people who said these words?" ”

"The eldest aunt and mother ordered someone to arrest them, and killed two of them in public, and now no one dares to say it." Zhuo Zhaojie sighed and said, "Maybe there is 'private', but I haven't heard it again." ”

"Isn't this over, such a rumor-mongering thing, that is, the eldest aunt and mother-in-law are soft-hearted, and if they were in the Yongcheng Hou Mansion, they would have all been killed a long time ago." Ning Shaobi said lightly, "What is credible about such a ridiculous statement? ”

Zhuo Zhaojie glanced at him and said worriedly: "I'm not as smart as you, how can I understand this?" Now my grandfather really values Shen Dangu very much, but I don't think it's all empty 'holes'. ”

"You don't understand, just ask me?" Ning Shaobi smiled and said, "In this way, I won't embarrass you today - you peel me two water chestnuts, how about I relieve this worry for you?" ”

Just peeled two water chestnuts, Zhuo Zhaojie would not refuse, pursed his lips and smiled: "If you say it well, I will peel a bowl for you." So saying, he called for water to come up and clean his hands.

Ning Shaobi glanced at her slender fingers that were as tender as ginger when she was immersed in water, and said with a slight smile: "It's enough to peel a few meanings, and I can't bear to peel a bowl." ”

Zhuo Zhaojie's fingered hand stiffened, looked at him with disgust, and said, "If you say again, I won't peel it for you." ”

Ah Xing couldn't help but smile and held the handkerchief, waited for Zhuo Zhaojie to dry his hands, picked up the red water chestnut on the plate and peeled it - Ning Yaobi was a little surprised when she saw her peeling the water chestnut, but seeing Zhuo Zhaojie lightly pull it from the side, followed by a slight movement of ten fingers, a whole piece of snow-white water chestnut 'meat' fell into the silver plate in front of Ning Shaobi with a ding.

Ning Shaobi was surprised: "Will you peel this?" ”

"Those who say this are like fools!" When Zhuo Zhaojie heard this, he raised his eyebrows and said, "This season this water chestnut is everywhere in the south of the Yangtze River, I often went out with my grandfather to 'go out', my grandfather fished, my cousin and I didn't have that patience, either catching fish and 'touching' mussels, or picking lotus and pinching water chestnuts, how could there be no reason to peel this?" ”

He snorted again, "Besides, don't you peel it neatly?" I know how you will, most of it is to honor the eldest princess of Jiyang? When I was in Moling, I often paid homage to my grandmother! ”

Ning Shaobi smiled and said, "I forgot about these, well, then you can peel a few more for me." ”

Zhuo Zhaojie grew up in the water town of Jiangnan, and she is very skilled in cooking water chestnuts common in Jiangnan. ”

"It's season." Zhuo Zhaojie ate the one that happened to be peeled out by himself, and after swallowing it, he urged, "Say it!" ”

Ning Shaobi ate two more, and then smiled slowly: "Don't worry, don't worry, where is it delicious now that the heat will dry up after a while?" ”

He had only eaten three or five left, and then he was satisfied, so he asked someone to take a handkerchief and wipe his fingers, and then smiled slightly, "Min Pinghou's mind is actually very easy to guess now, oh, it should be said that he did this time, so his mind has always been very good." ”

…… Zhuo Zhaojie thought for a while and said angrily: "What do you mean by this? "Ning Shaobi is easy to guess on the left and easy to guess on the right, but she is still confused when she thinks about it, and she is annoyed by the 'sex'.

"Ahem, it's just the words 'for the father's heart'." Ning Shaobi hurriedly smiled and said, "Look, the Zhuo family doesn't count your two aunts now, there are a total of five people, yes or no?" ”

Zhuo Zhaojie said suspiciously: "Then what? ”

"The big house is not rich, and there are no grandchildren so far, let me tell you the truth, don't be annoyed, I heard that our second cousin is not a 'colorful' character? It is impossible for the second and third rooms to inherit the title, but the children and grandchildren are always passable, the lobby brother and the sixth cousin are now outside, and the seventh cousin will not end up next year? There is probably some hope for these two rooms in the future; Father-in-law and mother-in-law's room looks the best, you see, the third brother is married, and there are two sisters-in-law under his knees, and the lady of the ancient family will pass the 'door' next year, and the starling seems to be the best one in the same generation, not to mention that you and the fifth sister are well married. Ning Shaobi analyzed one by one, "There is only one 'daughter' in the fifth room so far, although the Gao family is powerful, but Zhuo Fangya's own concubine and wife have now 'made' the good in-laws into enemies, and they have also delayed their homework for the sake of 'women' and 'sex', so according to Min Pinghou's thinking, the most worrying thing is actually two rooms, one is a big room, and the other is a five-room." ”

Zhuo Zhaojie said strangely: "I seem to have heard that my grandfather has been living in another courtyard for many years. The implication is naturally that Min Pinghou really doesn't care much about his children and grandchildren.

Ning Shaobi shook her head: "You can't look at it like this, people live in other hospitals, but Starling and Shen Dangu have always been taken by Min Pinghou's side." ”

"Didn't you say that my grandfather was most worried about my uncle and fifth uncle? Starlings are our four-room people. Zhuo Zhaojie asked in surprise, "Could it be that grandfather plans to let the starling succeed?" ”

Since Zhuo Fangchun was established as the son of the world, and Zhuo Zhiyi has not had a son and a half 'daughter' so far, there are many people in Zhuo Erlang's backyard, and he is such an heir in the big house, Zhuo Fangchun and the eldest lady have not asked Mrs. Hu to see it in private, but there has been no movement over the years, I think Zhuo Zhiyi may be hindered by the heir, so if there is no heir in the future, it must be a stepson and nephew to inherit the incense and inherit the title. The big house and the fourth room are brothers from the same mother, and the successor in the future is of course selected from the four rooms, and there is no reason to go to other rooms cheaply.

But Zhuo Zhaocui and Zhuo Zhiyi are the same generation, although Zhuo Zhiyi is a concubine and mediocre, he is Zhuo Fangchun's biological son after all, and it doesn't matter if the title of 'sex' does not fall to the big house, since the big house has been passed on, it will be passed on to the nephew instead of the parent and son in the future, I don't care now, I am afraid that Zhuo Fangchun will think more about it when the light grows in the future?
