Shen smiled kindly and said: "Although I'm old, but I can't prepare that ginseng, and I can't use it now, and at my age, it's a waste to use good things, but it's Zhaojie, who is young, can't leave a sick and crooked body, and it is ...... to have a good life."

You Shi's heart was dripping with blood, Zhuo Zhaojie only came back today, looking at her 'color' like 'spring' and 'flower' vigorous appearance, where did she look like she was not in good health? Shen Shi could say the three words "sick and crooked", she pinched the handkerchief, and said in a deep voice: "What my mother said, the daughter-in-law 'woman' can't stand it for Zhaojie, Zhaojie now has the words drafted by her father himself, with the blessing of her father and mother, and the daughter-in-law 'woman' wants to only have a better and better body, and besides, she has already received such pity from her father, how can she get such a good thing from her mother?" ”

Saying that, You suddenly smiled, looked around and said, "I just came back today, and my mother gave her such a good thing that is enough to press the bottom of the box, but don't make the nieces and nephews next to me aggrieved!" It's better for my mother to keep it for herself. ”

- You wicked old woman! These 800-year-old ginseng, you keep yourself and your sons and daughters, hang your short life! My 'girl' is smart, beautiful, and strong, and she won't need this thing for 50 years! You scolded non-stop in his heart......

Zhuo Zhaoqiong, the eldest 'daughter' of the fourth room and Zhuo Zhaojie's sister, smiled and answered: "Mother is very right, as soon as Qi Niang comes back, grandmother loves her like this, and even her granddaughter can't help but blush!" Grandmother can't be so eccentric, just give Qi Niang not to us, we look at it like this, but we are so aggrieved that we are about to shed tears! Zhuo Zhaoqiong said while making a gesture of grievance, and sneered in her heart: You must give it, you can also give it, you have the ability, give a copy of the fourth mother, fifth mother, sixth mother, and eighth mother here! Everyone took it together, is it difficult for you to go out and say that none of the ladies up and down the Zhuo Mansion are in good shape? Five 800-year-old ginseng plants - this is still not counted in Lang Jun's share, but it is not a small number!

Zhou also spoke, and said with a light smile: "Although Zhao 'Yan' is not here, mother should not complain about the greed of the daughter-in-law', but the daughter-in-law 'woman' happened to remember that she wrote a letter to her son a few days ago, saying that Langzi's aunt was sick, as if she was looking for an old ginseng to use in the 'medicine'!" ”

The implication is that if the Shen family wants to give Zhuo Zhao Festival, she will also give Zhuo Zhao 'Yan', the eldest grandson' and 'daughter'.

Shen's smile remained unchanged, but Zhuo Fangdian's face sank for a moment, but soon became casual, covered his mouth and smiled: "It turns out that the eldest niece and 'daughter' want old ginseng?" Why didn't the sister-in-law say it earlier? It's a pity that my mother only ordered an 800-year-old ginseng plant with that shop! ”

Zhou smiled and said: "I also saw my mother love Zhao Festival like this, I can't help but think of Zhao 'Yan', and then make a joke with my mother, is my sister still serious?" ”

She said lightly, "It's also Zhao 'Yan' who heard that Langzi's aunt was seriously ill and needed old ginseng, and she wrote a letter to talk about it because it was inconvenient for Langzi to collect money when he was in office." Suddenly, his tone became full of indifference.

"Since Zhao 'Yan' wants to ......" Shen glanced at You and Zhuo Zhaojie kindly, and You immediately said: "Don't we dare to use such a thing, why don't you help a group of Zhao 'Yan'?" ”

That's it, the old ginseng wrapped in red silk was 'handed over' to Zhou's in the end - but Zhou didn't even look at it, and directly asked the servant 'woman' behind him to come out and take over, but said with a smile in his mouth: "The daughter-in-law 'woman' wants to thank her mother for Zhao 'Yan'." ”

Shen said with a smile: "You are always so polite, you are a family to each other, and you have to say thank you for everything, but you are born." ”

Zhuo Zhaojie pursed his lips, thinking to himself that the Dao Ban clan had been reminding himself that this Shen clan was not easy to mess with, and it was not easy to maintain this graceful and kind bearing from beginning to end......

Suddenly, they heard the soft sound of the tea bowl being put back on the rosewood table, and everyone was suddenly silent - but it was Min Pinghou who put down the tea bowl, and his expression was faint, as if the other party didn't pay attention to the 'lip' war between the other party's step-room, the young 'daughter', the daughter-in-law', and the granddaughter, but said: "Zhaocui will go to the study with me." ”

Zhuo Zhaocui hurriedly got up and said, "Yes!" ”

When Min Pinghou said this, it meant that he was leaving, but just when he got up, he suddenly remembered and asked, "What about Dangu?" ”

Zhuo Zhaojie heard that this name did not look like the Zhuo family, and when he was doubting the 'confusion', he saw that the faces of the big room and the fourth room were 'gloomy' to varying degrees, but Shen replied with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "He agreed to the invitation of Shiro of the Guozi Festival Restaurant last month, and he went to the appointment today." ”

"Hmm." Min Pinghou said with a soothing expression, "Dangu studied too hard in the past, so he should have some fun." Only then did he leave with Zhuo Zhaocui.

Minpinghou left, the rest of the people couldn't sit still, leaving Minpinghou, Zhuo Fangchun and Zhuo Fangli didn't mean to give face to Shen's stepmother, almost at the same time, and said lightly: "Mother, let's retire." ”

Shen's face was full of kindness and said, "Go ahead." added another sentence to Zhuo Fangli, "The flesh and bones are gathered, I won't quarrel with you, there are many things in the past few days, and a family banquet will be held in a few days, so that Xiao Qi Niang and the little ladies of Chang'an are familiar with each other." ”

This is also a matter in You's plan, although the Shen family did not agree to her to do the same thing in the fourth room, but the Shen family opened this mouth, that is, in the name of the Hou Mansion, which is also a good thing for Zhuo Zhaojie, although she knew that the Shen family could not be innocent of kindness, but she still immediately agreed and thanked the Shen family.

When everyone left, the main hall was quiet, and Zhuo Fangdian frowned—and only frowned, and said, "Mother, the big room and the fourth room don't take you seriously anymore." ”

Shen said lazily: "When did they take us seriously?" ”

"This little Qi Niang reacts quickly." Zhuo Fangdian narrowed his eyes and said, "I see that she is not very old, and she is from Jiangnan, so I thought she was an ignorant and easy to bully!" ”

Shen snorted slightly: "She's not big, but you're only a year older than her, so it's no wonder that you miss her if you underestimate her, You Ruoheng is also okay, the old lady of the You family, Ban, is not a fuel-efficient lamp!" Just look at your fourth sister-in-law, how bad a temper your fourth brother is? Haven't you spent all these years with her and Hemei? ”

Zhuo Fangdian said with a smile: "The fourth brother's temper is not very good, but it is not difficult for me to deal with it!" If it weren't for his preconceived notions, he couldn't look at the three of us, mother and son, and I wouldn't have the patience to coax him...... He's just a man who eats soft and doesn't eat hard, what's so difficult to cook? ”

For what happened just now, the mother and daughter who have been fighting with Changfang and Sifang for a long time didn't take it to heart, although they couldn't get Zhuo Zhaojie for a rare time, but they gave an eight-hundred-year-old ginseng to Dafang, but the two sides have been 'fighting' for many years, and it is common for each other to win or lose, Zhuo Fangdian said a few words of Zhuo Fangli, and got down to business: "It's just that why isn't Dangu here today?" Mother, you said that Dangu only went out today because he agreed to Shi Shilang's invitation a month ago, but I know that Dangu and Shi Shiro have a very good relationship, and they don't worry about missing the appointment twice...... Did my mother change her mind? ”

Shen Shi smiled lightly and said: "You child, although your father is very much in favor of this 'door' marriage, do you think that Sifang will agree?" Is it difficult that if he is here today, this 'door' marriage can be completed? ”

Zhuo Fangdian rolled his eyes and said, "Mother? ”

"Left and right Dangu is now living in the mansion, and I'm afraid that there will be no chance for him and Xiao Qi Niang to get to know each other?" Shen said lightly, "Dangu is talented and good-looking, in addition to his background, where he is worthy of Xiao Qi Niang is more than enough, but your father has always loved talents, but he doesn't care what his background is!" You only see that Xiao Liuniang and Xiao Banniang are not married yet, he has to choose Xiao Qi Niang to know that he doesn't despise Dangu at all, your father values Dangu so much, this thing eight. Jiu Kecheng, in that case, why let Dangu appear today? Today, they are all serious Zhuo families, and Xiao Qi Niang's relatives can't remember it, where can I remember Dangu deeply? What's more, on the contrary, there are traces called the big room and the four rooms to guard, it is better to let their children know and move around in private. ”

Zhuo Fangdian narrowed his eyes and said, "I see, in the end, my mother is thoughtful. ”

Shen Shi said again: "What's more, there is a reason why he was asked to go out of the 'door' today, today the king of Yanchang County took his companion to Leyouyuan to go out, and Shi Shilang and Dangu are also Leyouyuan, with Dangu's talent, he may not be able to 'show' his face in front of the king of Yanchang County...... Your father will pay more attention to him! It's also very good for us. ”

Zhuo Fangdian nodded clearly, but Shen sighed again and muttered: "It's a pity that no matter how good Dangu is, in the end, your surname is Shen, but you are smart and clever but you are just a little lady, your brother ...... But I couldn't make it a little bit, read the book carefully, and then I took the exam, and I actually ...... I actually plunged into the fat powder pile! Is it easy for me to go to great lengths to hire the young 'daughter' of Prime Minister Gao Xianling for him? This is something that doesn't fight for it...... Has he been to Yiningfang again recently? ”

"I didn't expect it." Zhuo Fangdian said cautiously, "After all, my brother doesn't look very good-looking these days, and I heard that the people in the fifth room say that he often argues with his fifth sister-in-law......"

Shen frowned: "This thing! She pondered for a moment and then instructed, "Go back and send some things to the fifth room to comfort and comfort your fifth sister-in-law." ”

Zhuo Fangdian hesitated for a moment and said, "Mother, the so-called 'flower' family 'daughter' is nothing more than a secret prostitute, can't it be directly ...... Nothing to do? In her crisp voice, there was a touch of coldness!

Shen immediately shook his head: "Do you think that if that slut can move, I will let Gorou run over there again and again?" It's just that you don't know, this kind of family is doing a secret prostitution business, but the household register is a good family, but the father of the Zhou family is Dali Siqing, Wulang and the 'flower' family have long been seen before, and now the big house and the fourth room are probably waiting for us to be unbearable and start on the 'flower' family! ”

Zhuo Fangdian frowned: "It's really troublesome-my brother is really it!" ”

"Okay, he's still young, although Gao is the 'daughter' of Gao Xiang, and she is not bad, but she is a cold beauty, and it's no wonder that Gorou doesn't like her if she doesn't understand the amorous feelings." Shen was still telling the 'daughter' to comfort her daughter-in-law just now, but now when she heard Zhuo Fangdian complaining about Zhuo Fangya, she felt sorry for her son again and helped him speak, "Man, how many people don't like to be petty?" Your fifth sister-in-law can't do it! ”

Shen frowned and said, "What's more, it's been two years since the Gao family entered the 'door', and now that Zhaobao is a little lady, she will hate your fifth brother for going to the 'Hua' family, but she doesn't know how to place some beautiful concubines around her husband to continue the heirs, so how can Gorou always worry about the outside?" ”

Zhuo Fangdian pursed his lips and said, "Then do I still want to comfort my fifth sister-in-law?" ”

Shen said: "Naturally." And he said, "Your fifth brother looks like this...... Alas, when Dangu comes back, he must ask him to help Haosheng persuade Kamigoro to say a few words......"

Leyouyuan terrain is towering, overlooking on all sides, spacious, within Chang'an, looking down like a palm, from the Han Dynasty, it is a famous outing resort in Guanzhong, when Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty also came out with the allusion of "happy not to think of returning".

Now it has not yet reached the time when "there is no yang 'flower' to worry about it, and the snow is falling all over the sky", the grass and trees on the plain occur, and the goose yellow and tender green poke out its head in thousands of points, which is bright and cheerful.

On the bank of a clear stream, imitating the customs of the Wei and Jin dynasties, digging ditches to divert water to flow, young men and women in fresh clothes and angry horses sit in front of the screen, playing and having fun......

The only young man in Shi Qing's 'spring' dress, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, looking forward to the gods, the scroll between the eyebrows is full of clear air, holding the gold bottle in his hand but not approaching the water's edge, but leaving the crowd a few steps, looking at Chang'an City in the distance with heavy eyes, and his expression has no joy or sorrow.

"Dangudi!" Behind him, a young man with a red face and a sense of alcohol at a glance chased after him and beckoned, "Why is Brother Dangu here?" Wang Fangcai of Yanchang County is still doing a good job in Zandan Gudi's "'Spring' Fu", and he asked where did the talent come from! ”

Shen Dangu smiled indifferently, and when he turned around, he had already 'revealed' his usual gentle and elegant demeanor, and said: "The foolish brother doesn't drink much, and he just drank a few bottles, and he gradually felt a headache, so he stood here and taught Brother Shi to bother." ”

Shi Shilang has always loved his talent, and the two of them have known each other for some time, so they don't care about him, and said with a smile: "You are confused, the people of the county king of Yanchang have a sobering soup, why don't you ask the people of the county king's mansion for a lamp?" And since you can't drink it, don't drink it...... Anyway, the king of the county is here, and no one dares to make too much noise......"

The two returned their seats as they spoke.
