087 Final word
There has been no news of him in the past year, Zhu Xiucai is not worried about the 'girl', and he already has the intention to settle down, so he said: "You keep your money for yourself, and buy whatever is delicious and good-looking." Over the years, I've gotten around and I've had some savings, but I haven't made up my mind what to do. "In fact, the idea is there, but Zhu Xiucai didn't expect that the price of goods in Kyoto, a place where every inch of land is expensive, would be so high, and it was not enough to look at the 'very' abundant money.
"That's it." Du's mother said with a smile, "Now that Mr. Zhu has a livelihood, Lilac can rest assured." ”
Zhu Xiucai was full of emotion, got up and shook his head at Du's mother: "I have to thank the county lord and my mother for taking care of Lilac for me, great kindness, I really don't know what year and month I can repay each other." ”
"Mr. Zhu is serious, our county lord often says, don't forget to repay kindness. Besides, Lilac is a well-behaved and sensible girl, and she has also helped my mother a lot, and I should love her. Du's mother said with a smile.
Thinking that Chu Liangrao was younger than her own 'daughter', but she understood so many big truths, Zhu Xiucai secretly admired, straightened up and said: "I've been bothering for a long time, it's time to go back and talk back, and I'm tired of helping my mother to convey a word of thanks to the county lord in Xia,"
"It's natural, sir, walk slowly." Du's mother was slightly blessed.
Lilac also saluted, watched her father leave, and then followed Du's mother back to Chu Liangrao's house. As soon as he opened the curtain and entered the house, he heard the old lady say: "The 'girl' surnamed Nalu is dignified and kind, and it seems that she is also a good child." ”
Not again...... Chu Liangrao took a sip of fish soup, dipped the corner of her mouth with a handkerchief, and thought secretly: The old lady knows a lot of things without leaving home.
I thought that Chu Chaoyang would refuse as always, but I never thought that this time he would be able to concentrate on listening to it, and said: "Appearance is secondary, the key is to be able to share my mother's worries." ”
The old lady who got the reply was overjoyed, and raised her eyes to look at Qiu's mother, who said with a smile: "Miss Lu is famous for her extra-show wisdom, and the embroidery work alone is a must, and I heard that she is also a housekeeper." ”
Chu Liangrao smiled when she heard this, now there are many men and women who are suitable for marriage in Kyoto, if this Miss Lu is really so good, will she be reduced to entering the palace as a concubine? Of course, it is not possible to avoid the possibility that people in this era may deviate from her thinking, and people may prefer to be a princess's concubine rather than a commoner's wife.
Presumably Chu Chaoyang also thought of this, so he said: "It's up to my son to think about this matter again, don't delay the girl's family." ”
Hearing Chu Chaoyang's tone, Chu Liangrao knew that his father was preparing to welcome the new 'spring' day, but he felt like a fish in his throat, and hurriedly drank another sip of soup and pressed it.
The old lady had another idea when she heard this, and said with a smile: "There is no delay, a small family, it is a blessing to be able to enter this 'door'." ”
In this way, it is clear that the dare is a person with no identity, and if you think about it, who would be willing to let the 'daughter' be inferior and give someone a concubine.
Chu Chaoyang smiled, and the afterglow swept to Chu Liangrao's face, only to see her looking at the fish soup in front of her in a daze, looking like she was not giving up, so she changed her tone and said, "This matter is not in a hurry, let's take a look." ”
It's rare that a little progress is stopped like this, the old lady can't get up in one breath, she blushes, and after calling everyone out, she said: "Don't worry, you don't see what age you are." If the Gu family is a person who can give birth and raise, she didn't listen to the advice, and took 'medicine' and hurt her body, who is to blame now? Now that she's sick, it's a good thing for you to have your own people around you. With that, he gasped for air.
For older people, getting angry is a very risky thing, Chu Liangrao helped her pat her back and said, "Grandmother is angry, don't be angry." ”
The old lady pointed at Chu Chaoyang and said, "Look at you, there is no junior who is sensible." Taking the hot tea from Chu Liangrao's hand, she said, "I have already received the post, and the people of the Lu family will come to the 'door' tomorrow, whether it is good or bad, you can read it yourself and then make an idea!" ”
"Tomorrow?" Chu Chaoyang frowned slightly, obviously the old lady was cutting first and then playing, and she 'forced' herself to agree, so she said, "My son knows, and I will make a decision tomorrow." "I looked depressed.
Chu Liangrao also wondered, ...... tomorrow She still wants to go to the temple to petition.
Seeing that Chu Chaoyang was relieved, the old lady made a final decision, and her face eased up.
When the people of the Lu family entered the mansion on the second day, the Gu family got the news, and she sneered again and again: "Okay! Good old pious woman! It's really easy to bully when your aunt's 'milk' and 'milk'? Mama Lin! Serve me to change my clothes! Mama Lin! ”
After shouting for a long time, Qiu Yue came over and said, "Princess, Mother Lin is still sick, the slave maid serves you to change your clothes......
Thinking that the swelling on Mother Lin's face had not disappeared, Gu Shi also took a break and said: "Find out the carmine gold Ruyi peony jacket, and then comb me a Wangxian bun, with that set of Luan Feng Chengxiang treasure ornaments." ”
Qiu Yue quickly found out the clothes first and put them on for the Gu family, and then painted her makeup, and then prepared to comb her hair. This combing of hair is a job that cannot be rushed, and the anxious Gu knows in his heart that if he doesn't show the dignity of his wife, he is afraid that he will really have to drink people's tea this time.
Gu's anxious but did not affect the happy old lady at all, she looked the young lady in front of her up and down, nodded with satisfaction, and said: "Delicate but not 'glamorous', charming but not demonic, I, the more I look at it, the more I close my eyes." He instructed someone to bring a pleasing bag to Miss Lu, which contained a piece of jade carved into a pomegranate, which means many sons and many blessings.
Mrs. Lu took the 'daughter' to thank her, and then sat down diagonally to speak.
As she was talking, Chu Liangrao arrived, and Mrs. Lu and Miss Lu got up and saluted her again.
Mrs. Lu raised her head and said half-sincerely and half-flatteringly: "There are still people with such signs in the world, but now the little 'woman' has opened her eyes, and she used to think that her sister was a good one, but now she can't boast about it." ”
Chu Liangrao smiled and didn't answer, only asked Du's mother to give a purse containing one or two silver buns for Miss Lu to play with.
Miss Lu took the purse, lowered her eyebrows, but was secretly shocked in her heart, this palace is so generous, and a county lord will give a reward of one or two silver. Mrs. Lu was secretly happy, but when the county lord was also satisfied with this matter, she felt that her wealth in the future was limitless.
Seeing the purse given by Chu Liangrao, the old lady frowned, and asked, "Let someone ask, why hasn't the prince come back yet?" But what's the delay? ”
"I've already let people go, presumably because I'm busy with business and missed the hour." Qiu's mother explained.
"Look, my son is not done when he is busy with business. It's my own business, and I have to worry about it as an old woman. The old lady shook her head and sighed, looking helpless. Mrs. Lu is a person who knows what she means, and understands that the old lady said this, which means that she still has the idea of this matter, and even if King Mingyang comes, it is just a formality, so she smiled and said: "What the old lady said, the prince is blessed to have a mother like the old lady." "That's right!" As soon as the curtain was lifted, Gu led Qiu Yue in, "It is indeed a blessing to have a mother like the old lady, why don't this lady let her 'daughter' recognize the old lady as her stepmother, so that she can also get some favors." ”
