Chapter 26: Nostalgia (4K)
Zhou Huaili agreed without saying a word, and said, "I must ask what is going on today." He added, "I asked last time, but my cousin didn't say anything." ā
"Oh? Last time? After the last time you went, she was in a better mood for a few days, and then it was bad again. My old man can't figure out these things about you...... Hahahaha...... "Old Man Wu frowned and smiled at Zhou Huaili.
Zhou Huaili smiled and said, "Ancestor, don't think too much......
"I didn't think too much about it. - Go ahead! Old Man Wu urged him repeatedly.
Zhou Huaili shook his head with a smile, and slowly walked towards Han Cuixuan, where Wu Chanjuan lived.
When he came to the door of Han Cuixuan, the mother-in-law who guarded the door stopped him with a smile and said, "Young Master Cousin, our second girl is not in the room. ā
"Oh?" Zhou Huaili frowned, "Not here?" Where did it go? ā
The second girl went to the back garden to relax. She's sullen these days, and she doesn't know what's wrong. The woman sighed, "There is always no mother's suffering, although we are subordinates, we can also see it." ā
Zhou Huaili nodded, turned around and went to the back garden of Wu Guogong's mansion to look for her.
Wu Chanjuan stood under a tree of Xifu begonias, looking up at the red and delicate Xifu begonias, and there seemed to be a little tears shining in her heavy pupils.
Zhou Huaili quietly came to stand behind her, looking at her back.
The people did not dare to approach, they were far away.
Wu Chanjuan said softly after a long while: "Tearful eyes ask Huahua silently, and the red flies over the swing to ......"
She read a poem from "Xiangrong Anthology".
Zhou Huaili sighed and called "Juan'er".
Wu Chanjuan turned her head, and her face faded away in an instant. "Big cousin!" She turned around in surprise. Take a few quick steps forward. Standing one step away in front of Zhou Huaili, he looked at him in a daze, and muttered, "...... You haven't come to see me in five days. ā
Zhou Huaili rubbed his forehead helplessly, "Cousin, I'm very busy......"
"I know!" Wu Chanjuan nodded hurriedly, and came over to hold Zhou Huaili's arm, "Big cousin, I know you're busy." As long as you think of me when you have time. Come and sit with me, talk, and I'll be satisfied. ā
Zhou Huaili quietly pulled his arm out of her hand and asked with a smile, "What were you looking at just now?" My grandfather said that you are in a bad mood these days, what is wrong? They care about you, just tell them what is on your mind. ā
Wu Chanjuan pursed her lips, regrouped her smile, and said to Zhou Huaili: "Big cousin, how can I be in a bad mood?" I'm in a good mood when I see you! - Come on! As she spoke, she grabbed Zhou Huaili's arm again. Help me pick some Xifu begonias down, I want to weave a wreath to wear! ā
"Do you still have a lack of jewelry? Do you want to wear a garland? Zhou Huaili teased her. However, he still stretched out his arm to pick some flowers from the tree, and broke a few soft begonia branches.
The small pink red flowers and green leaves on the branches are very bright.
Wu Chanjuan took the branch from Zhou Huaili's hand, bent it in her hand, and soon wound it into a round corolla.
Zhou Huaili looked interesting, and saw that there seemed to be some more beautiful flowers on the towering trees on the side, and flew up, swept over the trees, and picked some red splendid flowers.
Wu Chanjuan's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly took it, nodded with a smile: "The eldest cousin is really discerning!" This flower and Xifu begonia complement each other, it couldn't be better! As he spoke, he staggered the red brocade flowers and the pink Xifu begonias on the corolla.
Zhou Huaili watched Wu Chanjuan's white and tender fingers walking through the green leaves and red flowers, which were even more dazzling than the delicate flowers, and he couldn't help but look over his head and didn't dare to look at it again.
"It's made up!" Wu Chanjuan finally tied the last flower and handed it to Zhou Huaili, "Big cousin, you put it on for me?" ā
Zhou Huaili turned his head, took the flower crown with a smile, glanced at Wu Chanjuan carefully, and gently put it on top of her head.
The sunlight shone from behind Wu Chanjuan, as if adding a layer of light to the flower crown on her head, making her more solemn and luxurious, bright and beautiful.
Zhou Huaili glanced at her steadily, then turned his head away, and said with a smile: "Okay, are you okay?" I have to go. If you're fine, go back to Hancuixuan. ā
Wu Chanjuan raised her eyebrows, "Big cousin, where are you going?" ā
Zhou Huaili said casually: "The Jiang family is coming to my house as a guest, I want to go back quickly." ā
"The Jiang family? Which Jiang family? Wu Chanjuan's eyes narrowed suddenly, and she looked at Zhou Huaili vigilantly.
"Jiang Shilang's family." Zhou Huaili smiled, "The Jiang family that your friend Li Yanniang married." ā
Wu Chanjuan's face changed suddenly, she looked at Zhou Huaili in a daze, suddenly took off the flower crown on her head, threw it to the ground, stepped on it with her foot, and trampled on a good flower crown to the ground, while crying: "It turns out that I just fill in the blanks for people!" Let's go, let's go! Go and accompany you Miss Jiang Si, Miss Jiang Wu! Pity me, a motherless person, having a father is the same as not having a father, and no one should pay attention to it! ā
She sobbed quietly, choking and shortness of breath, which was more pitiful than loud crying.
Zhou Huaili saw that she would change her face when she said it, and her temperament was indeed much more sensitive and irritable than before, and he was also a little disliked, and said unhappily: "What are you talking about?" Where did the Jiang girl provoke you? You're going to choreograph her like this? ā
Wu Chanjuan was stunned for a moment, her crying stopped abruptly, she hurriedly wiped her tears, pulled Zhou Huaili's arm and said: "Big cousin, it's me who is not good, I won't mess with you anymore, don't ignore me." It's me who is wrong, I shouldn't talk nonsense, it's me who ......is careful," he said, and the tears of grievance couldn't stop flowing.
Zhou Huaili looked at her charming heavy pupils, and was in a trance for a while, raised his hand to caress her cheek, and wiped her tears.
Wu Chanjuan smiled slightly, her eyes looked at Zhou Huaili without blinking, took a step forward, and said softly: "Big cousin, I know that you are for my good." I won't quarrel with you in the future, I'll listen to you for everything, okay? ā
Zhou Huaili was in a trance, and wanted to nod a little, but he felt that something was wrong, and when he was hesitating, a crisp birdsong suddenly sounded in his ears, waking him up from the confusion.
Zhou Huaili hurriedly took his hand away and took a step back. Break free from Wu Chanjuan's arm. solemnly said: "I'm going back." Cousin, please respect yourself. He said. Turn around and walk away.
Wu Chanjuan looked at his back in a hurry in disappointment, bit her lower lip, slowly retreated, leaned on the trunk of the Xifu begonia tree, and hid the whole person in the shadow of the begonia tree.
ā¦ā¦
Zhou Huaili returned to the Divine General's Mansion, and everyone in the Jiang family had already arrived.
"Huaili! Where did you go! Grandma Wu San beckoned to him, "Come and give Aunt Jiang a salute!" ā
Zhou Huaili hurriedly took two steps and stepped forward to give Jiang Shilang's wife Cao Shi Chang a slap to the ground. smiled: "Aunt Jiang forgive me." There are some things today, I'm late to come back, wait for me to punish myself for three cups, which can be regarded as an excuse for Aunt Jiang! ā
Grandma Cao smiled and said, "No need to be polite. You are an adult, and you have your own business outside, how can you be like us women, who are idle all day long. ā
"You are an understanding person, so I will not be polite to you. Come, let's sit down and talk while eating. Grandma Wu San said with a smile.
Grandma Cao nodded.
The three girls of the Jiang family and Li Yuniang, the eldest daughter-in-law of the Jiang family, sat behind the screen. did not meet with Zhou Huaili.
Zhou Huaili's eyes flew to the side of the screen, and he just saw the little hedgehog's gray body emerging from under the screen. couldn't help but smile and arched his hand: "Please." "Lead them to the table.
Because the Jiang family came to all the female dependents, Zhou Huaili just came over to greet Mrs. Jiang's grandmother Cao, and then followed into the table, punished himself with three cups, and took the opportunity to glance at Jiang Siniang before turning around and leaving.
After he left, the atmosphere at the table relaxed.
Grandma Cao talked about the fact that His Majesty sent someone to their house to paint a portrait of their girl a few days ago, and sighed: "My second mother and third mother are married, and the fourth mother is also soon, I hope it will be ......too late."
Grandma Wu San's heart moved, and she said with a smile: "Don't you want to send Siniang into the palace?" If you enter the palace, you are a master, a mother, just like your previous aunt and wife, the concubine Niangniang, in the inner palace and the queen Niangniang have been in court! ā
Grandma Cao shook her head, "Our fourth mother is not suitable for entering the palace, unlike her aunt and grandmother. When she entered the palace, she kept not even the bones and slag. ā
Seeing Grandma Cao's anxious appearance, Grandma Wu San had a little bit of a plan in her heart, smiled and said a few words of gossip, and sent them out in person.
When I went all the way up to the second gate, I actually met Sheng Siyan and his party who happened to return to Qingyuan Hall from Lanshui Courtyard.
Grandma Wu San hurriedly stopped to greet her, and introduced her to Grandma Cao, the three girls of the Jiang family, and Li Yuniang, the eldest daughter-in-law of the Jiang family.
Sheng Siyan is more familiar with Li Yanniang, but he only knows him.
She knew that Li Yiniang and Wu Chanjuan were good friends, so she was not salty or indifferent to her, but just nodded lightly, but when she saw Jiang Siniang, she was stunned for a moment.
Because she saw Jiang Siniang holding a small fluffy gray hedgehog in her arms......
She silently remembered Ah Cai, who followed the Great Elder of the Fallen People to the northwest to recuperate from her injuries.
Jiang Siniang saw that the eldest and youngest grandmother of the Divine General's Mansion really changed her expression as soon as she saw the little hedgehog in her arms, and she believed Zhou Huaili's words a little more.
She took a step forward, curtsied to Sheng Siyan, and said with a smile: "Grandma, this is my ash." Take the initiative to show the little hedgehog in her arms to Sheng Siyan.
Sheng Siyan subconsciously took a step back and said with a smile: "What a cute little hedgehog." ā
Jiang Siniang nodded happily, "The young grandmother also likes little hedgehogs?" ā
Grandma Wu San covered her sleeves and smiled: "Our young grandmother not only likes little hedgehogs, but also raises one herself!" It's a pity that there was no ...... a few days ago."
Sheng Siyan frowned slightly, and said lightly: "Ah Cai is sick and sent to another place to recuperate." It means that her rich man is not dead, and she will be beaten up for talking nonsense......
Jiang Siniang's eyes lit up, "Your little hedgehog is called Ah Cai?" What a chic name! Those who don't know think it's a dog! ā
"yes." Sheng Siyan could see that Jiang Siniang really liked the little hedgehog and had a good impression of her.
The two casually said a few interesting things about raising hedgehogs, and they laughed together.
Grandma Wu San is very confused. The eldest young grandmother of their family, who shrank behind everything, actually hit it off at first sight with Miss Jiang Si......
Grandma Cao was a surprise. Unexpectedly, her daughter actually won the green eyes of the prince of the god general's mansion because of a little hedgehog!
"It's your fate, too. In the early years, when we were in Jiangnan, my fourth mother rescued a dying little hedgehog at the door of her house, and within two days of raising it, the little hedgehog was gone. Siniang was only more than two years old at the time, and she cried for a few days and nights, but later her father caught a little hedgehog for her and came back to raise her, and she was fine. Grandma Cao said with emotion.
Sheng Siyan nodded and said to Grandma Cao: "Ling Yuan is benevolent, and blessings are behind." ā
Jiang Siniang said regretfully: "Actually, I raised four gray ashes, but they are not as good as the original one." ā
"Miss Jiang Si is a nostalgic person." Sheng Siyan smiled and praised her.
Zhou Huaixuan didn't know when he returned to the inner courtyard, and he kept standing not far away with his hands behind his back.
It wasn't until I heard Grandma Cao talk about the events of the year that I turned around and glanced over here quickly.
After thinking about it, he walked over quietly.
"The eldest prince is back!" Grandma Wu San was stunned for a moment, and nodded with a busy smile.
Sheng Siyan turned around in surprise, "Huaixuan! ā
Zhou Huaixuan nodded lightly and bowed slightly to Grandma Cao, "Mrs. Jiang." ā
For the first time, he saluted outsiders.
Not only did Grandma Wu San look stupid, but even Zhou Huaili and Zhou Sizong, who followed behind, saw that their jaws were about to drop.
Those who are familiar with Zhou Huaixuan know that in addition to saluting Old Man Zhou and the emperor, he is a person who has no trouble even rolling his eyes on others!
actually saluted Grandma Cao!
Zhou Xianbai watched blankly from the side, feeling that he was already messy in the wind......
The eldest prince with eyes above the top...... Salute a lady-in-waiting......
Today must be the wrong time to go out, the eldest son has hit an evil spirit, it must be!
The Jiang family was not as surprised as their Zhou family, except for Li Yanniang, who felt a little surprised.
Grandma Cao smiled and blessed, and said, "I can't help it!" I can't help it! General Zhou Xiao killed me. ā
Zhou Huaixuan took a step to the side, grabbed Sheng Siyan with his hand, and glanced at her.
Sheng Siyan understood what he meant, and also gave Grandma Cao a respectful salute.
She didn't know why, but she knew that Zhou Huaixuan asked her to salute Grandma Cao.
Grandma Cao returned the gift to Sheng Siyan again, and then led her daughter and daughter-in-law back with a spring breeze on her face.
She was full of thought that the prince and the wife of the prince of the god's mansion were giving face to the third room, so she was so polite to them.
"This Divine General's Mansion is indeed good. Several people in the room help each other, and there is no intention of tearing down the stage at all, which is really rare. When Grandma Cao returned home, she was full of praise for the people in the Shenjiang Mansion.
If they want to marry their daughter to the Divine General's Mansion, they can't just look at the power position of the family.
Whether the brothers and concubines in the family are harmonious, whether the in-laws are reasonable, whether the men are motivated and have good conduct, are all things they have to consider, and they are even much more important than their position of power.
Not only is Grandma Cao and her entourage very satisfied with Zhou Huaixuan and Sheng Siyan's style today, but even Grandma Wu San and Zhou Sizong are secretly wondering.
āā¦ā¦ What is so special about this Grandma Cao? Can you actually let Huai Xuan salute her? Grandma Wu San was puzzled.
Zhou Huaili was sitting next to him, also confused.
