Chapter 46: The golden hairpin can be reluctant
The old lady leaned forward, and had a good impression of this talent who coincided with her, "With this kind of talent, you should take care of it, no matter what conditions he has, just agree." ”
Zhao Chengyuan drank tea unhurriedly, and in the tea mist, there seemed to be a fat bamboo shoot doll, with a small face, "In my life, the only thing I can rely on is the pillow, and the one next to me is still forget it." ”
Inexplicably funny.
He put down the teacup and smiled at the corner of his lips, "I'm afraid it's not easy to get around." ”
The old lady is quite trustworthy of her nephew, "Ah Yuan makes a move, and there is nothing that can't be done." It's up to you whether you want to or not. ”
Zhao Chengyuan shook his head with a smile.
There are always things he can't do anything about.
The old lady didn't think about how to speak for a while, so she drank the tea and glanced at Zhao Chengyuan, who was calm and calm from time to time.
Ah Yuan lost his parents since he was a child, and the lack of family affection created his indifferent temperament, and he was not close to people since he was a child.
Even if she and the old man, Ah Yuan's closeness is limited. Between him and people, it seems that there are thousands of mountains and rivers, and there are clouds and fog, which always makes people unable to see the real and cannot get close.
The girl of the Chen family is quite capable.
Zhao Chengyuan didn't look up, and said lightly, "If my uncle has anything to say, just ask." ”
The old lady smiled and put down the teacup, "What happened to the girl of the Chen family who you escorted back?" ”
Zhao Chengyuan thought for a while, "She has always been able to eat and sleep, so she must be not bad." ”
Can you eat and sleep?
The old lady glanced at him with disgust, "You can't say that about a girl, no matter how much she eats, she can eat a whole plate of steamed buns?" You learn from your uncle, even if I eat a whole plate of steamed buns, he thinks I eat too little, I should eat more. ”
The corners of Zhao Chengyuan's lips raised slightly, she really can.
The old lady sighed, "That child's background is also pitiful, first she was destroyed, and then she was hunted down, she didn't feel sorry for herself, but her heart is rare." Has she been arraigned? She's a little girl, you have to take care of it. ”
She also roughly knows the beginning and end of some things, money and wealth are charming, and there are no courtiers involved, she doesn't believe it.
Now these two cases are combined into one case, and the prince is in charge, and the Criminal Department and Dali Temple jointly investigate the case, and the prefect of Xiangping Prefecture and the prefect of Yuming Prefecture will be summoned for investigation. But it is difficult to say what the name can be found, whether it is true or not.
It's good if the Chen family girl has the support of Dingguogong, but if she is abandoned by them......
That's not afraid, and they are in the Tomb Waiting Mansion.
Zhao Chengyuan was silent for a moment and said, "Originally, it was going to be summoned two days ago. Considering her young age, the criminal department waited for the other witnesses to arrive before summoning her, so there was no need to run away. ”
He paused, "She doesn't need me to take care of her. ”
The old lady felt that the second half of his sentence was quite suspicious of three hundred taels of silver.
The officials of the Criminal Department are all cold-faced and cold-hearted, but it doesn't seem like they will think about others, you are greeting you in private, right?
She stared at Zhao Chengyuan for a long time, and she didn't see any clues from his face, so she only lowered her eyes coldly and drank tea.
It's quite fitting.
The old lady took out the invitation card and handed it over, "The flower viewing banquet of the Dingguo Mansion, will you accompany me?" ”
Zhao Chengyuan looked at the post, "Chrysanthemum feast? My aunt never liked to go to these banquets, so how could she be interested this time? ”
Load, continue loading.
You don't want to see that girl?
The old lady looked kind and said, "Now that their brothers and sisters have reached marriageable age, and their father and mother are not around, I, as a grandmother, have to worry a lot." Can't you meet the right girl at the flower viewing party? ”
Zhao Chengyuan glanced at the old lady's lame acting skills and returned the post, "I won't be available the day after tomorrow, and I will arrange a team of guards to escort my aunt at that time." ”
Don't go?
Don't look at your daughter-in-law anymore?
The old lady walked away.
Ah Yuan is a person with a firm mind, and the things he believes rarely turn around.
He said no, and it was useless to persuade him.
That's it, with her in Hengzhu, this daughter-in-law can't run!
Zhao Chengyuan watched the old lady go out of the courtyard and instructed Ye Chang, "Go and find out, what's going on in the Dingguo Mansion." ”
"Yes!"
--
Dingguo Mansion.
The people in the house have been busy, and the temporary banquet is the most fatal, the cleaning inside and out, the layout of the banquet, and the snacks on the table, which time is very urgent.
All the ladies who came were noblemen, and one of them was not well entertained, which displeased the nobles, and they all had to bear the responsibility.
And all this is due to Miss Biao's love of chrysanthemums. The old lady was kind enough to do what she wanted, but she caused so much extra trouble.
Xiao Wen finally understood her mother-in-law's calculation at this time, this flower-viewing banquet was forced, if Chen Youning had an accident at this banquet, others would not be able to find their fault.
And Chen Youning's reputation has quietly spread, there is no need for them to do anything, everyone already has a preconceived impression, then the rest of the matter will come naturally.
She was busy without touching her feet, and finally sent out all the posts, and now she is discussing the proposed menu with Han Qingwan and Han Qinglian.
The two of them have been learning from her since two years ago, she is the mother of a house, and Han Qinglian also calls her mother, she is always not good at favoring one over the other.
But this concubine is a little more cautious after all. The lowly identity is there, but he doesn't accept his fate, and thinks about everything to suppress Wan'er.
Wan'er has been carefully trained by the old lady's side since she was a child, and it took a lot of effort, how could she be overwhelmed by a little cleverness of a concubine?
The maid came in to report, "Madam, Anling Houfu has sent two carts full of chrysanthemums, and they are waiting in the outer courtyard." ”
Xiao Wen raised his head in surprise, Anling Houfu?
Are you sure it's not a stone or a knife or something?
And the chrysanthemums are usually one pot for each house, but there is no reason to send two carriages of chrysanthemums.
Han Qingwan sighed lightly and said helplessly, "I'm afraid it was sent by Master Lu." ”
Han Qinglian was unhappy in her heart, this little marquis Lu picked a daughter-in-law among the ladies in the capital, but he never looked for her. Although she hasn't reached the end yet, Han Qingwan didn't have time when Lu Rin flattered Han Qingwan!
To put it bluntly, I can't look down on her as a concubine!
She couldn't help but say sourly, "Eldest sister, what do you mean, could it be that these flowers were given to you by the little marquis?" ”
Han Qingwan put down the pen and got up, "You can see when you go over." ”
Han Qinglian pursed her lips, she didn't think that the little marquis could be so bold. Anling Houfu is the outer home of the King of Jin, maybe the Hou Mansion heard that the cook of the Jin Palace's kitchen scourged a lot of chrysanthemums, so he sent some chrysanthemums to make amends?
She tilted her head innocently, "If the eldest sister loses, can she admit punishment?" ”
Han Qingwan smiled, "Okay, admit the punishment, what does the second sister want to punish me?" ”
Han Qinglian looked at the golden hairpin in Han Qingwan's hair, and the hairpin head was inlaid with a huge eastern pearl, which was dazzling.
The emperor of Dongzhu rewarded the eldest uncle with two, and the eldest uncle gave them to the old lady. The old lady kept one for herself, and the other one was given to Han Qingwan and hit this golden hairpin.
Han Qingwan has always treated it as a treasure, and I heard that when she doesn't wear it, she has to lock it with several layers of locks.
Han Qinglian pointed to her golden hairpin, and asked with a smile, "Can the eldest sister give up this golden hairpin of Dadongzhu?" ”
