Chapter 60: The atmosphere is peaceful and the master and servant are calculating
Hua Zhen nodded and left.
Only everyone in the Shen family was left looking at her back with different expressions.
Jiaoyue had been waiting at the gate of Zhixiang Garden for a long time, and when she saw Hua Zhen coming back, she immediately greeted her happily and hurriedly said, "Miss, you are back." ”
As he spoke, he realized that something was wrong, and quickly changed his words: "The slave should die, now that the young lady is already the county lord, it should be said that the county lord is back." ”
After speaking, he happily welcomed Hua Zhen back.
Hua Zhen first asked Jiaoyue Jiangfu and Aunt Zhou to wait in the house, sent the rest of the people out, and then said to Mama Cao: "Mama, these people are all serving in front of me on weekdays, if Mama has anything in the future, just tell them." ”
followed them to introduce Mama Cao.
Then let Aunt Zhou go to arrange a place for Mama Cao, and ask Jiang Fu and Jiaoyue to go down to prepare meals, and she wanted to entertain Mama Cao at noon.
Everyone dispersed, and Mama Cao looked at Hua Zhen at this time, her eyes were red: "County Lord, the old slave didn't expect to see you in his lifetime, County Lord..."
Mama Cao was a little choked up in her voice.
Although she is the person next to the Queen Mother, she has been with Queen Renxiao for more than ten years, and she has grown up watching Hua Zhen.
Over the years, there is no longer any use of Empress Renxiao, and she is full of affection for master and servant.
Naturally, she is also very clear about the affairs of Queen Renxiao, knowing the secret behind her, and now looking at Hua Zhen, she knows that this is the only person who cares about and believes in the queen mother in the world, and looking at her is like seeing a relative, with tears in her eyes.
Hua Zhen had heard these words once in her previous life, and now she was not too surprised to hear them, but she just helped Mama Cao up, and said very sympathetically: "Mama Since my aunt left, there is no one else in the Hua family, although my uncle and grandmother are still there, Zhen'er has no one to trust, and she will have to rely on Mama to protect Zhen'er in the future." ”
When Mama Cao heard this, she immediately took Hua Zhen in her arms, as if she was looking at her daughter: "The old slave of the county lord will definitely protect the county lord even if he fights for his life, and it can be regarded as the right mother's heart to treat the old slave." ”
The master and servant talked for a while, and then asked Mama Cao to go down and clean up.
At noon, a large table of meals was sent from the kitchen to pick up the wind and wash the dust for Mama Cao.
Originally, Mrs. Shen was naturally reluctant to do this, but the old lady understood her daughter-in-law's temperament and reminded her a few words.
In addition, the kitchen is now in charge of the second lady, and a table full of delicacies from the mountains and seas was sent over.
Mama Cao nodded, knowing in her heart that the Shen family was looking at her face, and immediately said to Hua Zhen: "County Lord, since you have returned to Beijing, let's go and ask the Queen Mother for peace tomorrow." ”
Hua Zhen nodded, knowing that Mama Cao was giving her an idea to climb the high branch of the Queen Mother.
Immediately asked: "I don't know if Mama knows what scriptures the Queen Mother has been reading recently?"
Hearing this, Mama Cao looked at Hua Zhen with great satisfaction in her eyes, although she felt that Hua Zhen's temperament was a little weak in the palace before, but her intelligence has always been very satisfactory to her.
I just mentioned that I went to ask the Queen Mother to say goodbye, and Hua Zhen could immediately react and ask the Queen Mother what scriptures she was reading.
Suddenly smiled and said: "Two days ago, when the old slave went to ask the Queen Mother to say goodbye, I saw that the Queen Mother was asking someone to copy the Lotus Sutra, but the scriptures copied by those palace maids in the palace were not so exquisite, and the Queen Mother was not very satisfied." ”
"In that case, if there is nothing to do in the afternoon, Zhen'er will copy a copy of the Lotus Sutra in the house. When Hua Zhen heard this, she looked at Mama Cao, and saw Mama Cao smiling and nodded: "That's the best." ”
After speaking, he instructed the maid to prepare pen and ink for her.
Unlike the master and servant of Zhixiang Garden, the atmosphere in Songhetang at this moment is a little depressing.
Old Madam Shen sat on top of the soft collapse, looking very ugly.
The eldest lady sat aside, followed by Shen Yuyao and Shen Yuxin.
Shen Yuxin, who has been smiling all the time in the past, can't laugh at the moment, and today in the palace, she was very angry in her heart, and she wanted to say it but felt ashamed, and she couldn't say it in front of her mother and sister.
Not to mention, as soon as she came back, she heard Shen Yuyao crying and complaining that Hua Zhen forced her to see the ceremony.
I only felt that my lungs were about to explode, but thinking about Zhao Ting's words, I could only suppress this breath.
Seeing that Old Madam Shen's face was not good, she forced a smile and said: "Grandmother, don't be angry, no one thought about this matter, the county lord's edict has always been not to reward people with foreign surnames, who knew that when she entered the palace, the prince knocked on the side, and actually asked the emperor to seal her a Qinghe county lord." In fact, looking at it now, it is not necessarily a bad thing for her to become the lord of the county, and grandmother should not be too angry, beware of being angry. ”
Old Madam Shen didn't speak, but the eldest lady on the side couldn't hold back her temper: "What good do you say that she is now the county lord, she used to hold the Empress Renxiao in the mansion, so we can't do anything to her, and now that she has been crowned the county lord of Qinghe, don't go to heaven yet." Today is to ask your sister to give her a gift, but if you can't say it, you have to ask your mother to kneel down for her. ”
Shen Yuyao seized the opportunity when she heard this, and sobbed, which only made Shen Yuxin's heart even more disturbed.
But he could only persuade patiently: "Mother, you may listen to me finish speaking." ”
Old Madam Shen also glared at her: "What's the trouble, are you making trouble for me!"
Mrs. Shen looked at the old lady's face and suddenly didn't dare to say anything.
Seeing this, Shen Yuxin continued: "Although she is now a seal of the lord of Qinghe, she is still very favored by the emperor, although she is bullying her sister, but if she marries the prince, won't all this become the prince's dependence." Mother, why don't you understand, all the things she gets now will be stones to pave the way for your daughter in the future, and when we achieve our own goals, it's not too late to turn around and clean her up when the time comes, why bother at this time. It's still the same sentence, what's the matter with her for a while, Zuo is just a woman, she is going to marry someone after all, let's come to Japan for a long time. ”
Mrs. Shen didn't care: "At the beginning, she was an orphan girl, you couldn't hold her, but now that she is the county lord, do you think you can still suppress her, I am afraid that she will suppress you." ”
"It doesn't matter who presses who now, the important thing is to see who has the last laugh, mother, haven't you always educated your daughter like this? Why don't you understand it now?" Shen Yuxin looked at the eldest lady with an angry face, and felt a little unhappy in his heart.
The old lady on the side looked down on the eldest lady even more, and said coldly: "Those who become big things are not informal!"
After speaking, his face was also a little solemn: "But Yuxin, don't forget, now that she is the county lord of Qinghe, the marriage of the county lord has to go through the emperor's nod, and it is not something that we can easily control." ”
