Chapter 746: Discord
Zhen took Xiao Fuyuan's hand, and was surrounded by several daughters-in-law and followed Xiao Li to the old lady's yard.
In the distance, I heard a faint voice from inside.
"This is the yard where my grandmother used to live."
Zhen introduced the yard to Xiao Fuyuan and several daughters-in-law.
In fact, from Xiao Li's yard to the old lady's yard, along the way, Zhen gave Xiao Fuyuan, Xie Chuntao and others endless introductions.
Xiao Fuyuan knew that his mother had planted a heel under a strange stone, knew which tree was planted by Zhen's own hands, and knew which flower bush was planted by Zhen's butterfly......
It can be said that the entire Zhenguo Mansion is full of Zhen's memories.
Xiao Li was uncomfortable.
I feel more and more that my house is a dove occupying a magpie's nest.
Originally, Zhen was invited to be a guest, but Zhen was anti-guest.
"It's rare for my aunt to remember, aunt, you just stayed at home for a few days, anyway, this is also your home."
Xiao Li's daughter-in-law, Tong, doesn't know the twists and turns of the past of the Zhen family's second room and the big house, let alone the Zhen family's being sold by her grandmother and father-in-law.
Seeing that Zhen cherished the garden like a treasure, thinking of Zhen's experience of being exiled, he was quite sympathetic in his heart, so he warmly invited.
"Yes, auntie, why don't you take your little cousin to stay at home for a few days?"
The splendid Zhen Zhixia, like the Tong family, also didn't know what his grandmother and father did to the Zhen family, so he helped the Tong family invite.
She felt that the style of the eldest aunt and the little cousin and several cousins-in-law was more likable than the second aunt and mother and son, and even more likable than her own aunt Zhen Ping and cousin Fan Lingyi.
Zhen smiled, did not refuse, and did not agree.
"This courtyard is now inhabited by the old lady." Xiao Li said to Zhen.
Zhen nodded and said, "Yes, this courtyard has always been lived by Lao Fengjun." Now that the eldest aunt has become an old feudal lord, she has to live here. ”
Xiao Li felt a thorn in his heart, and he didn't know if Zhen was sarcastic or really thought like that when he said this.
While talking, the Bai family followed Xiao Li through the weeping flower gate entwined with wisteria flowers, and then through a long corridor to the old lady's main room.
Mama Zhang greeted her and shouted at Zhen's eldest lady.
Zhen nodded.
Mama Zhang opened the curtain and invited Zhen and the others in.
Xiao Fuyuan followed his mother to the main hall, and the people in the room stopped talking instantly.
Xiao Fuyuan saw a room full of acquaintances.
Zhen Ping, Fan Lingyi, mother and son, Aunt Chen, mother and daughter.
In addition, there are some noble ladies and ladies that Xiao Fuyuan doesn't know.
Everyone gathered around the old lady.
The old lady leaned crookedly on the collapse with a wipe on her forehead, and a maid behind her was pinching her shoulders and rubbing her legs.
"Old lady, the eldest sister has arrived." Xiao Li said with a smile.
The old lady raised her eyelids and said, "It's here." ”
Leaned steadily on the couch and waited for Zhen and the others to salute.
Zhen didn't salute and praised: "The eldest aunt is so interested." ”
Aunt Chen and Zhen Ping froze when they saw Zhen.
They didn't welcome Zhen at all.
Especially Zhen Ping, her eyes were on Tian Maimiao, and she couldn't wait to let Tian Mai Miao disappear in place.
The ladies sitting around are basically the daughters of Zhen's families when they were young in the capital, and everyone has seen them when they were young.
It's just that they haven't seen each other for so many years, and they are very strangers to each other.
Knowing that Zhen was back, some people sent gifts, and some people were watching, and this was the first time they had seen Zhen face-to-face.
Some are curious, some are excited.
"Hello old lady."
Old Lady Bai took the initiative to salute forward.
The old lady felt a little better in her heart.
"How many years have passed, this place has not changed at all, when I was young, my mother-in-law and I came to greet the old lady, this is the courtyard. The old lady left me and my mother-in-law to stay for two days, and when she left, the old lady also rewarded me with a fox fur and a big bag of clothes, and four sets of head and face jewelry. ”
The old lady Bai was like a small talk, but the old lady of the Zhenguo Mansion didn't like to listen to what she said.
The "old lady" in the mouth of the old lady Bai naturally refers to the old feudal monarch in the past, the old lady's mother-in-law.
"But later, when the Zhen Mansion was in trouble, the big clothes and headdresses were finally taken by me, and the silver exchanged for redemption redeemed my daughter-in-law."
The old lady Bai couldn't even open the pot, and these words made the old lady lying on the beauty couch have a sore neck.
What does it mean?
Is this an insinuation that she ruthlessly and unjustly betrayed Zhen?
"Fu'er has a good life, and I can get the Bai family to take care of it, and my town is grateful." The old lady said with a chuckle as if she hadn't heard the sarcasm in Old Lady Bai's words.
"It's not worth anything. Old lady, don't blame me for mentioning Chen Guzi's rotten sesame seeds, it's true that as soon as I saw you, I thought of the old lady before. She has also been an ancient person for so many years, and my Bai family was able to successfully rescue Fu'er, all of which were blessed by her old man in heaven. With tears in her eyes, the old lady put her hands together.
The old lady's heart fluctuated.
Whether this old woman is here to collect debts or a guest, why does she always mention the past.
"You haven't been to the capital for a long time, and the current Zhenguo Mansion has also changed."
The old lady means that the Zhen Mansion in the past is gone, and the current Zhenguo Mansion is their big house.
The ladies sitting around eat melons steadily.
Everyone's minds are floating, but they are afraid that Zhen was sold to Yangzhou at the beginning.
"Big sister, my nephew and daughter are tired of standing, sit down."
A trace of embarrassment flashed on Xiao Li's face, and he didn't let Zhen salute anymore, and persuaded Zhen to take Xiao Fuyuan to sit down quickly.
"Sister, the elders in our family are also aunts, you should have come to the house to take a look." Aunt Chen complained that Zhen didn't give the old lady face, and at the same time she accused Zhen of trying to sell well in front of the old lady.
"Only one elder? Where did you put the Queen Mother? Zhen took a sip of tea and asked with a smile.
Aunt Chen realized that she had lost her words, and she was speechless for a while.
"Fu'er, you're too careful. The Queen Mother is a member of the Heavenly Family, and our family is a monarch and a minister. We are just a family, and Rong'er hopes that the family will be harmonious. I am very happy that you can come to your aunt today, so let's have a good banquet today. ”
The old lady found a comfortable position and stretched out her legs for the little girl to continue to beat.
"I'm happy to be here at home." Zhen aggravated the "own family".
The old lady of the Zhenguo Mansion sneered in her heart, and returned to her own family, she wanted the Zhen family to see who was in charge of the current Zhenguo Mansion.
She deliberately asked Xiao Li to pick up Zhen outside the three gates, so that Zhen could see all the way, and every grass and tree she passed would stimulate Zhen. But so what, now every grass and tree belongs to her descendants.
Seeing that the atmosphere was getting colder, Xiao Li came up to adjust the atmosphere and said, "I asked everyone to come today, because the two younger sisters in the family are back, and everyone is happy for my Zhen family." ”
Then the crowd began to laugh again.
"Our eldest sister is now the mother of the champion, this is the lord of Furong, and she is very loved by the queen mother, the emperor, and the queen."
The words of the mother-in-law and the Zhen family were full of discord.
Xiao Li saw that everyone's eyes fell on Zhen and Xiao Fuyuan, and he was busy introducing everyone, hoping to divert everyone's attention.
After all, in the eyes of outsiders, the Zhen family and the Zhenguo Mansion are one.
What's more, the Queen Mother definitely hopes that everyone will be harmonious.
