Chapter 857: Wicked Guest
()
Soon it was the Lantern Festival on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, and the specific time and list of Kangxi's southern tour also came out. () The list of the eighth master who is really in the southern tour and so on.
Speaking of which, whenever Kangxi wants to go out in the past few years, the eighth master is in the accompanying list, and he is almost never missing.
This time, there were many people who accompanied him, even the crown prince, who had always stayed in the capital to supervise the country. There are also the fourth, ninth, tenth, twelfth, thirteenth, and fourteenth masters.
In this way, there are eight princes who travel with them, plus their respective female dependents, and the servants who accompany them, this is a lot of people. This is not counting the concubines, ministers, guards, and so on that Kangxi wants to bring.
Therefore, the team of this southern tour can be described as very strong. After the Lantern Festival, the Ministry of Internal Affairs got busy and began various preparations.
And the Ministry of Internal Affairs is busy with the eighth master.
At that time, when he was allowed to leave Beijing to recuperate, he mentioned to Kangxi that Ling Pu should take over the Internal Affairs Office again. For this matter, he also deliberately told the prince in advance.
But in the end, Kangxi did not agree, and still just let the former acting officials continue to act as stewards. When the eighth master returned to Beijing, this errand still fell on the eighth master.
Mao Tongtong hasn't been able to talk to the eighth master well in the past few days. Because the eighth master goes out early and returns late. She hadn't gotten up when she left early, and she didn't want to say anything if she was tired when she came back late.
When Mao Tongtong massaged the temples of the eighth master in the evening, he couldn't help but say: "The emperor is too, the master's body is just better, so hard!" What if it breaks again? ”
"This is a fat gap that no one else wants." The eighth master chuckled.
"What a fat difference! I only saw that my master was so tired that everyone was thin! Mao Tongtong said angrily.
The eighth master smiled but did not speak. The affairs of the Internal Affairs Office are trivial, and when encountering such a time, it is even more busy that I can't wait to divide one person into several people. But the benefits are also tangible. Otherwise, if he replaced Ling Pu back then, the prince would not have reacted so much!
originally wanted to sell the prince a face, but unfortunately the emperor Ama did not cooperate, and he had the intention to let him stand on the opposite side of the prince, so he could only continue this errand with the hatred of the prince.
"Is it time for you to be busy until you leave?" Mao Tongtong asked.
"These two days have been arranged, and I can rest for a day or two." The eighth master replied with a bit of laziness. Mao Tongtong was massaged very comfortably, and he was about to fall asleep.
Mao Tongtong listened to the tiredness in his voice, and he didn't say anything more in distress.
Soon, the eighth master's breathing stabilized, and he was obviously asleep.
Mao Tongtong sighed lightly, tucked the corners of the quilt for the eighth master, looked at the sleeping face of the eighth master, and lay down next to him.
Chen Ruzhu's news was delivered to the Eighth Master Mansion two days later. Mao Tongtong thought she didn't have the guts to do it. After all, there are still three days left, and she is going to leave Jingnan with the eighth master.
"Let's go, let's go to the Shilang Mansion." Mao Tongtong said to Qingzhu.
"Aren't we going to post first?" Qingzhu asked.
According to the current rules, if you want to visit a guest, you must post in advance, so that the host's family can prepare first. Someone like this who suddenly breaks in is considered a villain!
"No, no!" Mao Tongtong's face was slightly curved, and he said: "After the post, people will find a reason to visit inconveniently." ”
She is now suddenly glad that she has the identity of the eighth master. Relying on this identity, she went to see Chen Ruzhu now, although the people of the Shilang family would say in their hearts that she had no rules, but they would never dare to say anything more in front of her!
"That's right, pick a few pieces of jewelry." Mao Tongtong said: "It's not an internal line. ”
"Yes. The slave and maid are going to prepare. Qingzhu nodded.
Chen Ruzhu's news came early, and Mao Tongtong had just arrived at Shilang's Mansion.
The little guy guarding the door of the Shilang Mansion was surprised when he saw Mao Tongtong, and it took a long time before he came back to his senses.
"Don't report yet? We came to see your young grandmother in the third room! "Qingzhu Road.
She originally came out of the palace, which would swing the momentum, and it really frightened the little guy, and hurriedly said respectfully Wait a minute, and went in to report.
Since Chen Ruzhu married to the Shilang Mansion, this is the first time Mao Tongtong has come to the door. Although her makeup made the people in Shilang's Mansion look at Chen Ruzhu highly, they saw that the two had never crossed paths again, and gradually stopped taking Chen Ruzhu in their eyes. And she had no children, and she was bullied more and more.
Chen Ruzhu was arguing with her mother-in-law.
She had always been docile, but now she has a tough attitude, which surprised her mother-in-law and made her heart more and more displeased. But Chen Ruzhu is talking about her son's illness, and she can't talk too seriously.
When the little girl came to report, Chen Ruzhu was standing aside wiping her tears.
When the little guy saw this, he stammered, "The third lady, the eighth, the side of the eighth master's mansion is here, come to visit the young grandmother." ”
"Who?" The third lady was stunned for a moment,
Chen Ruzhu also stopped crying, and said in disbelief, "Third sister? ”
When she said "third sister", the third lady's face changed.
"Why is she here?" Chen Ruzhu muttered.
The third lady over there had quickly recovered her expression and said, "Don't hurry up yet, please!" ”
"Yes, little one!" The little guy hurriedly responded.
The third lady looked at Chen Ruzhu again and said, "Wash your face quickly!" It's like our family is bullying you! ”
"Yes." Chen Ruzhu's voice suddenly decreased.
The third lady's eyes couldn't help flashing a trace of disdain, she knew that her daughter-in-law had to pretend that she was doing well for the sake of face!
There can be no comparison between sisters. Not to mention this kind of cousin! People are now the side blessings of Lord Belle, if she shows her bitter appearance again, won't it be even more shameless?
Chen Ruzhu didn't miss this disdain, and she couldn't help hating it even more! But now she only has endure!
When Chen Ruzhu washed her face, Mao Tongtong also arrived.
"Sister Ruzhu!" Mao Tongtong called cordially when she entered the door, took her hand and said, "I went out shopping alone today, and I happened to pass by you, thinking that our sisters hadn't seen each other for a long time, so I came to see you." You don't mind if I make a surprise visit, do you? ”
"How could it be! It's too late for you to come and see me! Chen Ruzhu smiled, took Mao Tongtong's hand and looked at the third lady and introduced: "Third sister, this is my mother-in-law." ”
Mao Tongtong seemed to see that there was another person in the room, and said with a smile: "Oh, it's Mrs. Shilang!" ”
The third lady hurriedly saluted. The squire is an official, and her wife is not as good as Mao Tongtong's level.
But looking at Mao Tongtong's affectionate appearance of pulling Chen Ruzhu, it was obvious that she didn't intend to let Chen Ruzhu salute, but she accepted her salute alive, and she still felt a little unhappy in her heart.
But a higher level crushed people, she felt uncomfortable, and she had to smile on her face.
"Sister Ruzhu, I bought a lot of jewelry today! There are a few things that I think are especially suitable for you. I didn't prepare a gift for a sudden visit, so don't dislike it! Mao Tongtong said as he motioned for Qingzhu to bring over a jewelry box.
