In addition to Lishu's family of four, there are also Zheng Miao and his wife who have just been married for a long time, Zheng Chang and Zheng Tong, and now after Cen Shiyan moved in, Zheng Hao asked these people to ask Cen Shiyan for more questions.

Zhu Lingxuan and Zheng Miao were newly married Yan'er, knowing that Zheng Miao got up early, they were very reluctant, and the two of them were entangled last night, and they always wanted to grind their sideburns for a while. In fact, she is a few years older than Zheng Miao, although Zheng Miao has the style of a son of a family, but he listens to her very much, so as soon as Zheng Miao leaves, it is not interesting for her to fall asleep alone, and after freshening up, she will come to Lishu to talk.

Coincidentally, Lin Tao'er was also here with Lishu, and Lishu introduced her to Zhu Lingxuan: "This is Cen Tuiguan's wife, Lord Cen was very knowledgeable back then, and the uncle also said that he would ask Liulang to ask Lord Cen for advice." ”

Zhu Lingxuan and Lin Taoer met separately, Zhu Lingxuan saw that Lin Taoer was beautiful, only in her twenties, and her eyes were particularly smart, and she had the finishing touch on her, making her whole person different, so she had a good impression.

And Lin Taoer saw that Zhu Lingxuan had both the charm of a young woman and the elegance of a scholar, which made people forget the vulgarity.

Zhu Lingxuan and Lishu often talk, the two often talk about poetry, and occasionally talk about housework, but today is unusual, only talking about Jiaxuan's customs and customs, and not mentioning others, which makes Zhu Lingxuan feel puzzled, but she was also raised by everyone, and she knew that she should be happy and not angry since she was a child.

After a while, Zhulan personally sent the pastry in: "Grandma, the snowflake cream has just been made, and the slave maid asked people to make walnut pine nut tea, and the kitchen said that the snowflake cream is made of glutinous rice, and the glutinous rice has a stomachache after drinking cold water." ”

Lishu looked at the snowflake cream sent up, and couldn't help but smile at the two: "My mother's ancestral home is Huguang, and we all love to eat food made of glutinous rice over there, and people also change their ways." When I got married, my family married a cook from my hometown, who was the best at making snowflake cream. ”

Lin Tao'er was eating snowflake cream for the first time, it tasted refreshing and delicious, smooth and soft, she thought of her husband and son again, so she wanted to wrap some up, but she was embarrassed.

Or Lishu seemed to see through her thoughts and said: "These have been sent to the front for their masters, and I don't know if they like to eat this." ”

Zhu Lingxuan said knowingly when he heard the string song: "Liulang must like it, he is a picky person, but I don't know why, he just likes to eat your family's food, and always says that my aunt is better here than others." ”

"This is too famous, if you want me to say that you husband and wife are sensible." Lishu smiled.

Suddenly, Lin Tao'er's maid said that her son had just woken up, Lin Tao'er hurried away, and after she left, Zhu Lingxuan asked: "Auntie, my nephew and daughter-in-law heard that the surname of the Marquis of Guangyang in Beijing is Cen, but the Mrs. Cen is from his family?" ”

Lishu glanced at her and said, "It's her family, this Lord Cen has a special background." She explained, especially reminding Zhu Lingxuan: "This second Mrs. Cen is from the countryside, her temperament is free and uninhibited, and she likes Jiaxuan's things a lot on weekdays, she is sincere, and such a heart is like gold." People often gather and disperse because of profit, so it is very important to be so sincere and sincere. ”

Zhu Lingxuan was confused when she heard these words, her mother was short-tempered and her father had a bad relationship, and what she taught her was mostly a housekeeper's thing, and Mrs. Zhu didn't judge people as poor, but she was young and widowed, had a strange temper, and it was difficult to get along with, but Lishu was higher in rank than her, and her status was even higher than her, but her age was not much different, sometimes she couldn't preach a few words, Zhu Lingxuan could listen to a few words, but she could listen to it, it didn't mean that she understood.

However, she still likes to be with Lishu very much, especially when Lin Taoer is gone, they are very lively when they talk about things in Beijing.

At this time, Zhu Lingxuan realized that Lishu's cousin was Mrs. Guangyang Hou: "Why didn't I hear you mention it before?" ”

"You didn't ask, how do I mention it?" Lishu said with a smile, she has a very bad relationship with Lizhen, but it is not good to say it to outsiders. However, Lishu knew that her aunt was Mrs. Xianwuyanghou, so she couldn't help but say, "Since you came to Beijing this time, are you ready to pay your respects?" ”

Zhu Lingxuan was also a little embarrassed, her aunt asked her to marry her cousin back then, and she promised a lot, but because her father's foreign appointment was not decided for a long time, and then her uncle died, and the title of Marquis of Wuyang was gone, so her mother quickly married her to someone else, and I don't know if my aunt will be angry?

Therefore, she said a few words perfunctorily.

It's just that when he returned to the room, Zheng Miao also happened to come back to get things, and when the husband and wife met, Zheng Miao said: "That Cen Tuiguan is also a student of Mr., there is no shelf, we all call him senior brother, and everyone chats very happily." ”

Zhu Lingxuan said: "Do you know that Mrs. Cen is a woman married by Lord Cen in the countryside, no wonder I see her dressed simply, and people are also weird, but my aunt said that she is sincere, let me not despise her." ”

Zheng Miao thought: "What my aunt said is not unreasonable, there are many officials in the world who are in the same stream, and there are also people who are not in line with the world, but in line with the interests of the people. ”

Zhu Lingxuan thought that this is the same as what her mother said, in the final analysis, choosing a husband depends on how this person is, and her mother said that there is an example of a mother-in-law driving away so many daughters-in-law in Wuyang Houfu, what kind of blessing can it be, if my aunt wants to set herself, she has already made a decision, and she has been paying lip service but not to it, in fact, it is to ride a donkey to find a horse, why should she marry this kind of snobbish family.

The young couple talked for a while, Zheng Miao stole an incense while no one was around, Zhu Lingxuan pushed him away, and said, "Do you know? I only now know that Mrs. Guangyang Hou is my aunt's cousin, and I have never heard her mention it before, and this girl from the Liu family is really married to a very prominent person. I have seen what a family is, no wonder my grandmother mentioned the reputation of the Jinghu Liu family outside, and everyone admired it. ”

Zhu Lingxuan thought of this, and came back to his senses, her father's three-year term of office has expired, I don't know if he can successfully operate into the prefect, if not, I don't know what will happen when he returns to Beijing to report on his work? Last time, when my grandmother appeared as Jinghu Liu, it made Grandma Zheng unhappy, how did the people of the Liu family think of my grandmother?

Most of the boat has traveled, and it will be in Tongzhou in a few days, Lishu was worried about Zheng Hao's recovery, but Zheng Hao comforted her: "It's okay, you don't have to worry." ”

"How can you not be worried, yes, recently I was looking for the jade cicada that my father gave me when I was a child, but I didn't find it, it's not strange. It seems that I have been wearing it when I was five or six years old, and then I remember that I often wore it when I played the hundred birds and the phoenix, but I don't know when it was gone, and I always thought that I put it somewhere, and I couldn't find it for a long time. Lishu pouted, the thing was secondary, it was given by her father, and the meaning was different.

Zheng Hao smiled and said: "Since you like it, I'll buy one for you, don't talk about you, just accept my previous jade pendant I don't know how much is gone." ”

Lishu shook her head: "This is unique, my grandfather and uncle in our family love to collect paintings, and my father is good at appreciating antiques, he is extremely discerning." My mother said that my father bought it for me on the street, and later I learned that the jade cicada was carefully selected by my father and unique, and there was a red line on the head of the white jade cicada, which was not ordinary. ”：，，
