"The eldest lady and the second lady of the Gu family are here. said that he wanted to see you, the princess. "The little girl guarding the door outside came to report the news.

"Oh?" Gu Wanyin, who was embroidering, paused, and then calmly pinned the needle to the white silk, got up and said, "Please come in." "Li and Zhang came together, I'm afraid it's not as simple as being guests. Come to think of it, is it for Zhou Ruijing to be reprimanded? However, it came at the right time.

Su Qin was busy preparing refreshments, while Bi Mei was helping Gu Wanyin tidy up her clothes and sideburns.

After thinking about it, Gu Wanyin instructed Bimei again: "Go and tell the prince that my eldest aunt and mother are here, if he is free, come and see him." ”

For a while, Li and Zhang were welcomed in by the girl. Gu Wanyin greeted her with a smile, reached out to hold Zhang's and Li's hands, and greeted with a smile: "Auntie, mother." Why do you have time to come over today? ”

"I'll accompany your mother over to ask about some of the little details of the wedding." Li replied with a smile, and glanced at Zhang again: "Your mother heard that the prince was ordered to think about it at home behind closed doors, and she was very worried, and she had to come over to see what she said." "Lee's is straightforward, and he goes straight to the point.

Although Zhang was a little uneasy in his heart, he also maintained that smiling and concerned look on his face.

And Gu Wanyin was also silent, only smiled: "Thank you mother and aunt for your concern." This matter is a long story, but it is not worth worrying about, and the eldest aunt and mother can rest assured. As he spoke, he let the two of them into the house. Su Qin brought the tea and snacks, and Gu Wanyin said with a smile: "This tea is a new tea this year, aunt and mother try it and see how it goes." This cake is also made from this year's newly harvested lotus root. It was filled with the dew from the lotus stamens in the morning, and there were lotus seeds in it, which I had nothing to do for the girls to study. ”

When Zhang and Li heard this, they looked down and saw six small lotus canopies neatly placed on the turquoise lotus leaf porcelain plate. The veins on the top are like that, and the lotus seeds are highlighted. It's no different from a real lotus pod. At that moment, the two of them were stunned - the lotus root cake has never been green. But Zhang's eyes are sharp. Soon saw the door: "I'm afraid it's a fresh lotus leaf wrapped in lotus root flour cake." Let's make it look like a lotus pod? ”

"Mother really has a good eye;." Gu Wanyin smiled slightly, and there was a faint flush on her face, as if she was a little shy: "If you have nothing to do, you can only pass the time on these meals." I had the lotus leaves picked by me and scalded them with water. Frozen in an ice cellar. Now that I take it out, I haven't lost the fresh fragrance of the lotus leaf. ”

"It's just that you have such a clever mind to spend so much thought on a small piece of snack." Li Shi smiled, reached out and picked up a lotus pod and ate it slowly, and said with a smile for a while: "Where can this cake be called lotus root flour cake?" There is the fragrance of lotus leaves and the sweetness of lotus root. And lotus seeds. And the workmanship is so complicated. It's me. I don't want to spend so much thought and effort on such a small piece of electricity. ”

"What is this?" Gu Wanyin shook her head. Crystal eyes looked at Zhang: "Mother has been in the palace for so long, she should know those snacks in the palace." It's really stunning. Not only can't you name it, you can't eat the ingredients, but the look is amazing. There is only one we can't think of, and there is nothing they can't do. ”

"The palace has always been exquisite." Zhang smiled faintly, and his eyes showed a little nostalgia. But in the end, he shook his head: "But it's extravagant." You don't know how much silver taels it will cost to eat these snacks in a year. The saint just felt that the palace was too extravagant, and as early as after ascending the throne, he ordered to be economical. It's a pity, where can I stop it? The concubines and ladies have nothing to do, so they like to tinker with these clothes and jewelry, and eat snacks. ”

"Isn't it? It was also when I was bored that I came up with these ideas. However, it is rare for the prince to be at home, so it doesn't hurt to get it. Gu Wanyin smiled slightly, nodded and said. After thinking about it, he said, "Grandmother is okay these days?" Our old lady has not been doing well these days, and I am worried about my grandmother. ”

"The old lady is in good health." Zhang smiled, "I just heard about this matter and was worried about the prince." ”

The tired mother went back and told her grandmother, and said that the prince was nothing. It's just a temporary recuperation, so don't worry. Gu Wanyin replied softly, but the voice was somewhat meaningful. Are the Zhang family and the Li family afraid that the Zhou family will collapse? After all, the honor of the Gu family is now on the same line as the Zhou family. If the Zhou family is really bad, the Gu family may not be good. Therefore, Zhang's worries, she is not incomprehensible.

"The second master heard that it was also - I don't know if it hinders the marriage?" Zhang pondered for a long time, and finally asked. Although they don't quite understand why Zhou Ruijing was reprimanded, it is also a fact that the second master was dismissed at two levels. Moreover, he was ordered to think about it for half a year, which is really worrying. Could it be that the second room of the Zhou family is going to decline from now on?

It's not just Zhang who thinks like this, but others also think like this.

The saint was suddenly so angry with the Zhou family and punished him so badly, how many people looked at it and guessed in their hearts? Naturally, among them gloating is indistinct. Even, some people wonder if they want to take the opportunity to fall into the well, so that the Zhou family will completely lose their hearts in front of the saint. However, most people also understand in their hearts - as long as the king of Zhennan leads the troops to guard the border pass one day, then the Zhou family will not fall one day.

It's just that the king of Zhennan is a member of the Zhou family's big house. As for the second room of the Zhou family......

"I don't think so. But you have to ask the second aunt specifically. Gu Wanyin only said vaguely. But he did not say it to death. The second wife is in such a bad mood now, I don't know what the anger in her heart looks like, Gu Yingyin's marriage is not what the second wife is looking forward to, I can't say that the second wife will not be able to think about it for a while, what decision will she make? But it's not like that. After all, this wedding card has been sent, no matter how angry the second wife is, she has to take care of her face, right?

However, the Zhou family has been doing a lot of things recently. After the Tao was brought in yesterday, he has been placed in a dilapidated and remote courtyard, and the second wife sent someone to guard that no one was allowed to come out, and he was not allowed to see Brother Qing'er, and he tossed the two muzi alive. I'm afraid there will be a commotion; There is also the injury of the second master...... The wounds on Zhou Ruiming's face...... I don't know what the Zhou family has touched, and it is so unsmooth.

After gossiping for a while, Zhou Ruijing came over, and as soon as he entered the door, he greeted the Zhang family and the Li family, and then looked at Gu Wanyin and said with a smile: "A friend of mine came to see me from out of town and brought me some things, and I will let someone move over in a while." It's all some good medicinal materials, aren't you worried about Old Madam Gu? Just let my mother-in-law bring some back. ”

Gu Wanyin responded with a smile, and then asked the girl to bring tea up.

I didn't expect the tea to come up, but it was a winter scene. Gu Wanyin saw that it was a winter scene, and it was a sinking at the moment.

Dongjing wore a pink embroidered dress today, and she was already good-looking, so she became more and more delicate when she dressed up like this. When Dongjing walks, he is not as hot as other girls, but walks slowly, quite a little willow bent waist. If outsiders see it, they will never let Dongjing be a girl.

Dong Jing held the tea in front of Zhou Ruijing, and said coquettishly: "The prince of the world, please drink tea." The voice is tactful and crisp, like a yellow warbler out of the valley, which is intoxicating. Coupled with her delicate face and Yingying's eyes, she is naturally sultry.

Gu Wanyin tightened her fingers. It took a lot of effort to suppress the anger in my heart.

On the side, Li and Zhang saw some doorways, and they were busy lowering their heads and talking about other things casually. but if it was not seen. It's just that I'm a little annoyed by this winter scene in my heart - what is this? A girl dares to do that gouyin thing in front of her master so grandiosely, is it a fox or a shameless one from qinglou?

However, Zhou Ruijing didn't reach out to take the teacup, but said in a deep voice: "Put it aside." He was naturally unhappy in his heart, but after all, this was Gu Wanyin's girl, and in front of so many people, she didn't have a seizure on the spot. Otherwise, according to his spleen, he was afraid that he would not be able to help but drive Dongjing out on the spot.

Dong Jing shuddered, Chu Chu glanced at Zhou Ruijing pitifully, bit his lip and put the teacup on the small coffee table in Zhou Ruijing's hand.

There was no smile in Gu Wanyin's eyes at this time, and it was so deep that it seemed to be bottomless. However, Gu Wanyin didn't get angry, but said: "Lord Shizi, Dongjing looks like it's interesting to you, I think it's better to take her in." It's also good to be considerate of you with multiple people. Dongjing was married by me, and I know the roots. He is also a capable one. ”

Didn't others always persuade her to let Zhou Ruijing put a few people in the house? Li persuaded her once, and Zhang also persuaded her, and now in front of these two people. Just right. At least, it won't make people think that she is a stingy person who can't tolerate others. As for how Zhou Ruijing decides, it's none of her business.

Since Dongjing is so bold to do such a thing, it's no wonder that she is ruthless. Moreover, the person who dared to let Dongjing come in should really be punished.

When she looked at Gu Wanyin with a smile on her face, her eyes were a little annoyed. Zhou Ruijing couldn't help but smile slightly.

When Dongjing saw this smile, he only felt that his heart was beating like a drum, and he was almost so happy that he wanted to laugh out loud.

However, what Zhou Ruijing said below made her fall into an ice cave: "I don't like such a frivolous girl." Let's just do it. The words were said to Dong Jing, but his eyes kept looking at Gu Wanyin.

Gu Wanyin only felt that the careful thoughts in her heart had been seen through, and she couldn't help but slowly lower her head, and the unhappiness in her heart disappeared mostly. Zhou Ruijing can say this, presumably he also knows what she thinks in her heart.
