Chapter 306: This Means
Early in the morning of the second year of junior high school, the three sisters packed up their things and went to the carambola's house in the town.
The star fruit and the newborn were still a little weak, and several people were overjoyed to take turns watching it over and over again, until the sun was almost noon, and they reluctantly left.
The three of them who were promoted to aunts were walking and discussing the newborn enthusiastically.
I didn't finish the discussion until I got home, and while talking, I started cooking again.
"It's so pretty. When he grows up, I'm going to take him shopping. Walnut danced happily: "Third sister, let's go and see it tomorrow, okay?" ”
"The eldest sister is still in confinement, and it is the first few days, so I can't talk much or disturb her more. Besides, Aunt Miao and Uncle Miao have been living in the eldest sister's house for the past few days, and it is not good for us to get old. Let's go the day after tomorrow. Ming'er went to the town to see if there was anyone who came out early to sell things, bought two pairs of pig's trotters and came back, stewed an old hot one for her. Cotton Peach said as she made a fire quickly.
"So early, how can anyone sell pig's trotters?" The eldest lady Zhao Lan walked into the yard and lifted the pig's trotters strung together in her hand with a smile: "I had long expected that Yang Er should be born in the next few days, so I had already asked Wen Hai to prepare it." No, this is the best front hoof, pick the best quality, buried in the snow and frozen. She has just been born, and it is under the Great Lunar Month, and I can't go over, so you can bring it to her. ”
"Auntie!!" Cherry was a little surprised, but also a little moved. I didn't expect the eldest lady to be so concerned about the eldest sister's affairs, and even prepared this early. But if you think about it carefully, the sisters have no father or mother, and when they encounter any major events and happy events, aren't they all managed by Zhao Lan. She treats her sisters like daughters.
After eating at noon, Mian Tao changed to walnuts and went to take a nap on the kang. Cherry is guarding the casserole and making pig's trotter soup for star fruit.
From the evening of the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve to the second night of the new year, the courtyard doors of each house are open and closed. Cherry was picking up the fire, and out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of someone walking in at the door, she subconsciously thought it was Wenhai, but turned her head to look at it but was taken aback.
"Why are you here?" Cherry stared at Zhou Muze who hurriedly walked towards her: "Under the moon of Dazheng, you ran out like this, is it ......" said, carefully looking at his face.
Zhou Muze's clothes were a little hasty, his eyebrows were tightly twisted, his lips were pursed, and he looked preoccupied.
Cherry's heart sank slightly: "Did the prince say something about you?" ”
"Nope." Zhou Muze stepped forward, didn't say a word, and gently hugged the cherry into his arms.
Cherry was startled, and quickly struggled to get up, while shouting in a low voice, "What are you doing here?" The third sister and Walnut are still sleeping in the house, and the door is open, if anyone can see it......"
"Shhhhh......h First...... Tell me to hold it for a while......"
"It's ...... What's wrong? Cherry twisted her eyebrows slightly, and gently stroked her hand behind Zhou Muze's back a few times, trying to ignore the impact of the faint fragrance between her nose: "Isn't there a demon moth from the princess?" Didn't that Yun Meng have already been sent back to the Yun family a year ago? ”
"It's not Yunmeng...... Zhou Muze eased his breath, then let go of his arms slightly, and gritted his teeth lightly: "The princess saw that Yunmeng couldn't do it, so she met another Miss Xu." This Miss Xu ......" with a long tail sigh, as if this Miss Xu is not a simple character and is very difficult to deal with.
"Come over here and talk slowly." Cherry pulled Zhou Muze into the wing, fiddled with the fire, and handed Zhou Muze a wooden stool.
"Originally, I planned to mention our affairs to the prince after this New Year, and then take you into the palace to stay for a few days, so as to dispel the princess's thoughts. But now that something like this has happened, I have to ......" Zhou Muze blinked, narrowed slightly, and his voice sank slightly: "This Miss Xu, she is the eldest daughter of the Xu family, and she used to come to the house with her mother as a guest, you should have seen it." It's just that I didn't expect that this woman had good means, good intentions, and good courage. ”
"What did she do?" Cherry had a bad premonition.
"Cherry, between you and me, I believe in you, and I believe in you and believe in me. Therefore, there are some things that I will not hide in front of your eyes. Zhou Muze looked at the cherry very seriously, and saw that she was also looking back at him seriously, so he opened his mouth: "Almost as soon as Yunmeng left, the princess took this Miss Xu into the house. Between words and actions, he obviously wanted to call this Miss Xu to replace Yunmeng. It's just that I used the reason that I was busy with the New Year's Festival to stay away from her, and I never asked her to have a reason to get close. I thought that she would retreat from the difficulties. But who knows...... On Chinese New Year's Eve, after eating Chinese New Year's Eve wine at my father's side, Zhou Mingyuan and I drank in my courtyard, your affairs, the affairs of the concubine, and the matter of the position of the son, hit him hard, but he also changed, he is no longer the same as before. We drank and talked about things, until it was almost dawn, and he stayed with me by the way. ”
Speaking of this, he paused, his eyebrows, which were originally slightly twisted, tightened heavily, and his voice sank, with anger: "At dawn, I was woken up by Liu Dezhong. There was this Miss Xu lying beside her, and Zhou Mingyuan, who was originally sleeping next to me, moved to the wooden couch, and the two of them were still asleep and did not wake up. Liu Dezhong's eyes were anxious, and he was about to speak, when there were footsteps and the princess's raised voice outside, she was looking for Miss Xu, who had 'disappeared' on Chinese New Year's Eve. ”
"Ahh Cherry's eyes widened, and her fingers clenched the fire stick in her hand. The princess and Miss Xu's trick is too despicable, if so many people see Zhou Muze and Miss Xu lying together, even if nothing happens to them, this family will be settled. Really...... Cherry also gritted her teeth: "How can I use such a method!" As he spoke, he looked at Zhou Muze a little nervously: "And then?" "Don't really ask people to 'catch the rape there', right? Then he has to marry Miss Xu. That......
"And then? Then I couldn't help it, people had already entered the yard, and I couldn't run out of the house again. Zhou Muze's expression calmed down, blinked, and looked at the stove: "At this time, Zhou Mingyuan woke up. He only glanced at Miss Xu and me, then got up and pushed me off the bed, and he lay down. Then, the princess broke into the house with someone. Then ......" He sighed softly: "Zhou Mingyuan and Miss Xu's family affairs have now been agreed by the Xu family and the Zhou family, and they will have to do things as soon as the New Year comes out." ”
"It's ...... How could it be ......" Cherry's eyes widened with astonishment. Zhou Mingyuan, he ...... He's ......
"He said that it doesn't matter who he marries now anyway, it's better to save me once, so that you and I both owe him a favor." Zhou Muze lowered his eyelashes slightly, and seemed to be struggling to say this, and changed his breath deeply, and said in a deep voice: "The princess is trying to force me to ......"
"How could he do that......" Cherry looked at the beating fire a little sluggishly, and her heart was a little gloomy. Zhou Mingyuan has done everything for her, everything she has suffered, and everything she is bearing now, she has no way to pay it back, and she can't pay it back in this life......
"He urged me to come." Zhou Muze paused for a while, and then spoke: "Our business, we can't wait for the first month, and now we must find out to the prince." I'm going to take you into the house. Otherwise, I don't know if I can defend myself against the princess. After all, she has lived in this mansion for decades, and I don't know how many old slaves are her eyeliner. And I, on the other hand, ......"
"I know." Cherry nodded.
So, I hurried over. Ask for your consent. ”
If you really want to see the princess and princess, you really have to face his identity and status, Cherry hesitated. Go? Or not going? She and Zhou Muze sympathized with each other, but the road ahead seemed to be a sea of swords and fire waiting for her. To go or not, how to face the princess and Zhou Mingyuan after going...... What she is most afraid of now is facing Zhou Mingyuan.
"Rest assured. Zhou Ming will move to his other courtyard for a while. Until he got married. After getting married, I will go back to the other hospital. He had told his father about it, and he had consented to it. Zhou Muze sighed: "I feel indebted to him when he does this." It's obviously ......"
"If it'...... me," Cherry hesitated, "If so, I'......"
"Don't think that much. You are you, a smart, clever and kind person, whatever the prince and princess say when the time comes, I will be by my side. Cherry, if we want to move out of the house in the future, we have to face the wind and waves now. Zhou Muze stretched out his hand and held the cherry: "The current situation is much better than I expected." ”
Cherry nodded silently and sighed: "If you have to go sooner or later, it's better to face it earlier." But I still have to discuss this matter with my third sister. She might not agree. ”
"Okay." A hint of relief appeared on Zhou Muze's face: "As long as you are willing, I will rest assured." I told her on the other side of the third sister. If that makes sense, I'll go back and mention it to my father. A convoy will be sent to pick you up when the time comes. ”
"Hmm." Cherry lowered her head, gently stirred the fire, and lifted the lid of the casserole and stirred it lightly a few times: "The eldest sister was just born yesterday, she is a male baby, and the mother and son are safe." Now that you're here, take a look before you go. ”
"Raw?" Zhou Muze was a little pleased: "Then I have to back up the gift." This time in a hurry, I didn't bring anything, it was really ......"
The two talked for a while, and when Cotton Peach and Walnut woke up, Zhou Muze talked about the affairs of the palace again. Mian Tao didn't hesitate and agreed.
Zhou Muze took the opportunity to hurry up and go to see the star fruit, and hurried back to Jingqing County.
Here, Cherry has already started to prepare things. Even if she wants to go, she naturally can't go in vain. What should be solved, what should be done, what should be said, and what should be closed, all have to have a result.
