Ah Xing and Ah Li each went upstairs with a cup of cherry cheese, Zhuo Zhaojie was holding the pipa and practicing for a while, and when he saw it, he asked, "Why did you bring two bowls of cherry cheese?" Didn't I just have one? ”

"Aunt Ge said that she learned a new method from the big kitchen two days ago, so in addition to the taste that the lady usually likes to eat, she made a new method, please taste it fresh." Ah Xing said with a smile, "If the new method is also liked by the lady, it will be good to change the taste of the lady in the future." ”

Zhuo Zhaojie nodded, and casually handed over the pipa to the early autumn who was standing next to the 'waiter', Liqiu brought water to serve her and cleaned her hands, sat down at the side of the desk, first took the cherry jelly cheese that A Xing brought up and tasted it, and said, "This is the new method?" Pickled raisins and plum 'meat' in it? The taste of this cherry is also a little different. ”

Ah Xing smiled: "The lady tasted it as soon as she tasted it...... Do you like the unknown? ”

"It's okay." Zhuo Zhaojie said, "It's a little sour than what I've always eaten, but it has a different flavor." ”

This is the recognition of this practice, Ah Xing pursed her lips and smiled: "Aunt Ge knows what the lady said, and she must like it tightly." ”

"I'll call Ming 'Yin' to reward her with a purse." Zhuo Zhaojie commanded.

She was eating cherry frozen cheese here, and Ah Xing said again: "The maid and Ah Li just went to the back to get this frozen cheese, but they heard something." ”

Zhuo Zhaojie swallowed a spoonful of frozen cheese and said, "What's the matter?" ”

"I heard that an old lady invited the eldest lady to discuss things today, it seems to have something to do with Liuniang, and Liuniang was crying in the big room so much that everyone outside the courtyard heard it." Ah Xing blinked her eyes and emphasized, "Siniang made a special trip to comfort her, and she coaxed the eldest lady for a long time before Liuniang stopped talking!" ”

Zhuo Zhaojie was surprised: "What's going on? ”

Ah Li answered: "The maid listened to Aunt Zhan and their 'private' words, as if the old lady reminded the eldest lady that it was time for Liuniang to say kiss. ”

"Can the old lady put forward a candidate?" When Zhuo Zhaojie heard this, he immediately became alert and raised his eyebrows.

Ah Xing and Ah Li shook their heads together: "Not really, but I heard that the reason why the old lady suddenly mentioned Liuniang's marriage is because now everyone is talking about Erniang's affairs outside, and some subordinates in the Hou Mansion are also chewing their tongues in private." ”

Zhuo Zhaojie frowned and said, "What? ”

"It's the little lord of Jin who 'befriended' Erniang before, and it was the little lord of Jin who took the initiative to show favor to Erniang first......" A Xing said implicitly.

Zhuo Zhaojie thought for a while, and then understood that after the "grinding mirror" of Tang Qianxia and Zhuo Fangdian was spread at the previous 'spring' banquet, she even if Ah Li came back to send a letter - she could think of this, others could also think of it, and Tang Qianxia took the initiative to get close to Zhuo Fangdian.

Outside the Hou Mansion, this rumor has been spreading, most of them are done by the faction of the King of Zhending County, inside the Hou Mansion, naturally it is inseparable from the big house and the fourth room, Shen sent the 'daughter' out of the city to avoid the limelight, and now she has her hands free to naturally fight back, she openly reminded the eldest lady that she should consider Zhuo's 'jade' mother's marriage, which is equivalent to saying that the eldest lady's negligence, mean, you can even doubt whether the eldest lady is deliberately delaying the young 'spring' of the 'daughter', after all, Zhuo' Yu's mother is now sixteen years old, and she is a few days older than Zhuo Fangdian, so it is indeed time to say goodbye.

However, Zhuo 'Yu' has always been raised by the eldest lady as a 'daughter', but it came out of the belly of the 'servant' concubine, and the position of the prince of the Minping Marquis Mansion has not been decided for a long time, which has led to her marriage being a little difficult to decide.

The people at the high point of the 'door' lintel thought that she was not a 'daughter', and thought that Zhuo Fangchun had no son-in-law, and the Zhuo family had no Lang Jun who could make a 'color', if Zhuo Fangchun could not attack the lord, this 'door' in-law would be too overshadowed after the death of Marquis Minping.

The eldest lady and Zhuo 'Yu' Niang are not reconciled with the lower lintel of the 'door', after all, Zhuo 'Yu' Niang herself is also a talented and beautiful character, because the age gap with Sister Chang is relatively large, and the eldest lady treats her well, and she is also a little arrogant.

So I haven't said kiss so far - A Xing said: "I heard Mrs. say that according to the meaning of the eldest lady, next year will be opened, and then it will be the 'color' and 'color' for Liuniang, but the old lady's meaning is that she wants Liuniang to settle things this year, the sooner the better." ”

Zhuo Zhaojie frowned, thinking that it was no wonder that Zhuo 'Yu' was crying and making a fuss, if the eldest lady had a suitable candidate, why wait until next year to open the department and look for 'color'? Shen was in such a hurry, and he actually had to add "the sooner the better", when this word spread, people thought that Zhuo 'Yu' had done something, and even her grandmother urged her to go out of the 'door' quickly!

Shen's this is clearly revenge, and she is not just revenge - now Chang'an is talking about Shen's biological 'daughter', the so-called dead friend is not dead and poor, if you can turn the topic to Zhuo's 'jade' mother, although she is also a 'girl' child of the Zhuo family, it is better than Zhuo Fangdian has been talked about, anyway, the big house has always been wrong with her, and it is a handful to be able to pit a handful.

Speculating on Shen's intentions, Zhuo Zhaojie thought of himself: "Grandmother only called the eldest aunt to talk about the sixth sister?" Didn't say what we had in four rooms, did you? ”

Ah Xing said with a smile: "Now that I have just said Liuniang, it will make a big fuss, and the lady has just come back from Jiangnan, what can the old lady say?" ”

Zhuo Zhaojie nodded, Zhuo 'Yu' Niang is not as good as himself, he has been fostered outside for many years, and the reason for staying in the fourth room for a while is very sufficient, and the Shen family is also very clear about this, not to mention mentioning a Zhuo 'Yu' Niang is enough to 'mix' the sight, Minping Hou is still there, and he is afraid of Zhuo Jian, what he does in this Hou Mansion must be left on the line, so as not to anger the family owner who seems to be indifferent.

Because he quarreled with Zhuo 'Yu' at the 'Spring' banquet, and the distance between the big room and the fourth room was not close, Zhuo Zhaojie didn't plan to go over to comfort Zhuo 'Yu' Niang in person, so he said: "You pack up a few things that the sixth sister likes, and go to see her on my behalf later." ”

Ah Xing was about to agree, but the curtain of the 'door' saliva and 'essence' suddenly sounded, and Ming 'Yin' walked up, saluted, and said: "Lady, Mrs. sent someone to say that Liuniang is crying in front of the old lady now, please go and persuade the lady and Mrs. together." ”

Zhuo Zhaojie was surprised: "Went to grandmother so soon?" "When I asked like this, I woke up - Zhuo's 'jade' mother made such a big fuss before, it is estimated that it is also for the eldest lady to take her to the Shen family to reason, otherwise what the Zhou family says is also the housekeeper's wife for many years, is there something that the big house doesn't want the outside world to know, will Zhuo 'jade' mother cry inside and outside?

Ming 'Yin' and Ming Ye are now at the age of Xu Ren, You Nian has served Zhuo Zhaojie for many years, and served Beihui, and personally promised to find them a 'door' good relatives, if they are willing to get rid of slavery in the future, they can also go, so they don't follow Zhuo Zhaojie in and out now, just take care of Jinghong up and down.

This will listen to Zhuo Zhaojie's words and say, "Isn't it? Hurry up and change your clothes, don't be too late to talk to someone. ”

"Okay." Zhuo Zhaojie knew that the Shen family didn't mind charging himself with not loving his sister at all, so he didn't dare to slack off, so he asked Ah Xing to wait for a new shirt that went out of the house, added two pieces of jewelry, and hurriedly went downstairs, and saw the Liao family waiting at the bottom of the stairs with You's family, and when he saw her coming down, he said with a smile: "The lady came out?" Let's get over there. ”

After getting the news, You sent Liao to inform the 'daughter' that he had been waiting on the way to Shen's place for a long time, and the mother and 'daughter' met and went to the upper room where the Shen family lived.

"Fourth brother and sister." You and Zhuo Zhaojie were about to go in, suddenly there was a call behind them, and when they looked back, it was the third lady Xu, leading Zhuo Zhaoshu, who rushed over with some unsteady breath, and when You saw this, he signaled Zhuo Zhaojie to stop and wait for them, and the two sides went in together.

Wearing the wall, passing through the corridor, and crossing the empty court, when I arrived outside the 'door', Zhuo 'Yu' Niang's cry was even louder, mixed with Zhuo Jiangniang's eager consolation, and the eldest lady's helpless appeasement - the third lady and You's nodded to the servant 'woman' guarding the 'door' together, and said, "Ask my mother, can we go in?" ”

When the servant woman went in to pray, she heard Shen Shi say as if she was tired: "Tell them to come in, I am looking forward to them coming!" ”

The people in the third and fourth rooms stepped into the 'door' threshold at this time, and asked for peace, Shen waved his hand and said: "What is the light of day, and these false courtesies, quickly persuade Liuniang, this child!" ”

Zhuo Zhaojie got up and raised his eyes to look at the top, compared to what he saw on the day he returned to Chang'an, the corners of Shen's eyes and eyebrows added a lot of sadness, but it was obviously not for Zhuo's 'jade' mother, most of it was for Zhuo Fangdian - even so, her face was still full of kindness.

At this moment, the eldest lady pinched the handkerchief, frowned deeply, and sat down on the seat, full of helplessness and anxiety.

The two 'females' of the big house, Zhuo Jiangniang and Zhuo 'Yu' Niang, both knelt on the ground, Zhuo 'Jade' Niang cried to death, ninety percent of the new silk shirt and brocade skirt were 'rubbed' and wrinkled, the temples were loose, and even a short hairpin fell off the side and didn't have time to pick it up, and she didn't notice the arrival of the three rooms and four rooms.

The second lady Wu had already arrived first, standing aside with an embarrassed face, silent.

Seeing this scene, the third lady said cautiously: "Mother, what the hell is going on?" ”

You Shi was also surprised: "The daughter-in-law 'woman' just heard from the people below that Liu Niang was crying a lot today, and I thought that who was joking, this ......"

Shen sighed and said, "But it's my fault, I was worried about Xiao Liuniang, and I didn't want to misunderstand this child and frighten her." ”

Aunt Shen behind her answered: "Two ladies, that's the case-the old lady remembered that Xiao Liuniang had also reached the age of Mei Mei, but the eldest lady never mentioned Xiao Liuniang's marriage, and the old lady couldn't help but be afraid that the eldest lady was busy with the family and was negligent, so she inquired about the eldest lady This morning, she asked the eldest lady to come over and say, where did she think that Xiao Liuniang had misunderstood, only when the old lady didn't like her at home, and now she is making a fuss about becoming a monk!" ”

Aunt Shen's words were helpless and gentle, but who in this class can't hear what she said?

Since the Shen family just said to the eldest lady, it was reasonable for the grandmother to care about the marriage of the granddaughter, and it also reflected the Shen family's love for Zhuo 'Yu' mother, but after a relay from the eldest lady, Zhuo 'Yu' mother not only thanked her grandmother for her concern, but went to the upper room to cry, how did the eldest lady pass on the words?
