"The fifth young lady is here, someone from the capital" Mama Yun was surprised and delighted, and hurriedly ran in.I'm so happy that it will cause my head to short-circuit for a while, and I can't speak clearly.Zheng Qingchuan stood up and asked, "Who is coming" Mama Yun made a swallowing motion, took a breath, and then replied with a smile: "The people of the Hong family first went to the yamen to see the fifth young master, and now they are coming in with the fifth young master" Zheng Qingchuan thought to himself: It is likely that they came to visit Ah Qing and Ah Yun.She said happily: "Mama, you go and prepare first, arrange a place to live in the outer courtyard." ”Mama Yun didn't hurry to leave, and asked again: "There are two more mammas and two maids, are they also arranged to live in the outer courtyard" Zheng Qingchuan smiled and said: "Female guests live in the inner courtyard" Ah Qing and Ah Yun also got the news, and hurriedly ran to ask: "Who is coming" Mama Yun replied with a smile: "The daughter of Mama Fu next to Mrs.
Hong, Mama Fu, and Mama Hu of the Zheng family" When Zheng Qingchuan heard this, he became serious, and he cheered up and came to listen to Yuxuan's Mama Hu actually came here Zheng Qingchuan was like a big enemy, and her attitude was no longer so-so."
Mama, you go and bring them in" Mama Yun added: "There seems to be one of the male guests, the second young master of the Hong family, who has grown a lot of beard, I didn't see it clearly, I'll ask later." ”With that, she left.The "second brother" Ah Qing and Ah Yun had bright eyes, and they didn't discuss with Zheng Qingchuan, so they immediately followed behind Mama Yun and ran to the outer courtyard.Their maids also hurriedly followed.Zheng Qingchuan was not so excited, and the presence of Mama Hu forced her to calm down, leave the small study, and go to the hall to wait.It is nothing more than that sentence: The soldiers are coming, the water is coming, and the water is covering, I don't know if Mama Hu will find fault this time Su Mu and Hong Zhengchang are talking in the study of the outer courtyard.Hong Zheng said seriously: "Grandfather said that the situation in the capital has been unstable recently, so don't rush back and say that the outside is more comfortable than the capital at the feet of the Son of Heaven, for the sake of the prince's affairs, everyone is busy standing in line, even if you don't want to choose, you will be forced to choose someone like the Hong family who is only loyal to the emperor, it's rare" After saying what the old lady Hong advised, he immediately became serious again, opened his mouth, laughed, blinked, and whispered in Su Mu's ear: "Actually, grandfather is more optimistic about the four princes, but grandfather has a hard mouth, Refuse to admit it" Su Mu was amused by him and asked: "What kind of chaos is the capital" Hong Zhengchang put away his smile and said with a boring face: "The emperor has been moody recently, and he has sent the two favorite concubines into the cold palace because the Taoist priest said that those two concubines have a demonic face and will make men lose their lives, hey, I don't like this kind of pretending to be a ghost" As he spoke, he picked up the peaches in the fruit bowl and threw them in his hand.Su Mu asked again: "Have there been any changes in those pavilion elders" Hong Zheng shook his head and said: "Or those old guys originally thought that the Taoist priest was coming for the position of the pavilion elder, but I didn't expect that there was no movement for a long time, which is really incomprehensible" Su Mu pondered.Having said this, Ah Qing and Ah Yun suddenly pushed open the door, rushed in, and shouted happily: "Brother, second brother, why haven't you seen you for a long time, why didn't you come earlier" Hong Zheng stood up with a long laugh, and deliberately gave a strange salute: "The little one passed by here and came to trouble the two donors to give a thousand taels of silver tickets, and bought wine and food for the little one" is simply nondescript, not like a monk, and not like a bandit."
This made Ah Qing and Ah Yun laugh."
Second brother, Mama Yun said that you have a beard" Hong Zhengchang picked up the fake beard on the coffee table casually and said, "The beard is here." ”Ah Qing and Ah Yun hurriedly took the fake beard over to observe.Ah Qing: "Why do you wear a fake beard" Hong Zheng smiled and said: "I heard that people with long beards are more majestic in the rivers and lakes, and others are afraid of bearded people Ah Qing, Ah Yun, you should go back to the capital with me this time" Ah Yun immediately looked at Su Mu and asked: "Is my brother going back" Su Mu said: "Second cousin was just joking just now. ”Ah Yun was relieved.Hong Zheng muttered: "I'm not joking" Su Mu immediately cast a warning look at him.Hong Zhengchang hurriedly shut up, deliberately making aggrieved expressions to Ah Qing and Ah Yun, making Ah Qing and Ah Yun laugh again.If he really wanted to send Ah Qing and Ah Yun back to the capital one day, Su Mu would definitely choose to escort them personally.Handed over to others, he will not rest assured, after all, the journey is a long way.In the inner courtyard, Mama Xiaofu and Mama Hu saw Zheng Qingchuan, and for the time being, they only told Zheng Qingchuan the advice of their elders, and they didn't make any moths for the time being.Everyone was tired from the journey, and this night just rested peacefully.However, Su Mu told Zheng Qingchuan at night: "The second grandfather and the second grandmother want to take Ah Qing and Ah Yun back to the capital about the marriage." ”Zheng Qingchuan turned sideways, nestled in the crook of his arm, and asked: "Has anyone chosen which one is it" Su Mu said in a low voice: "There are several choices, and they have not yet been decided."
I plan to write a letter to my second grandfather, explaining that if anyone intends to ask for marriage from the Su family, let him come to Jingzhou in person, and I will do an interview to investigate. ”Zheng Qingchuan nodded, very understanding.If she hadn't even met in person, Su Mu would definitely not be at ease marrying her sister to someone else, and she yawned and asked: "Su Mu, how long does the second cousin plan to live here" Su Mu said lightly: "He doesn't care, he hasn't played enough, and he probably doesn't want to go back too soon."
However, Mama Hu can only stay for two or three days, and she is her aunt's arm. ”Zheng Qingchuan hid in Su Mu's arms and snickered.Let Mama Hu go quickly, the sooner the better, there is Mama Hu at home, she is a little nervous, and she doesn't even dare to bow.Because she knew that Mama Hu would definitely keep an eye on her every move, and then go back to the capital to report that Mama Hu's master was Mrs.
Zheng Jia, and Mrs.
Zheng was Zheng Qingchuan's double elder, both her aunt and Su Mu's respected aunt, and Su Mu's aunt was her aunt.This can be called the elder of the Taishan level, Zheng Qingchuan at least on the surface, did not dare to be presumptuous, the second day of Mama Hu's arrival, the main drama was played, Mama Hu first thanked Zheng Qingchuan for the care of Xiuqiao and his wife.Because Xiuqiao's husband is Mama Hu's godson, the relationship is really close, intertwined, and then, Mama Hu and Mama Xiaofu seriously cared about Aqing and Ayun's life in Jingzhou this year, and asked in great detail, and by the way, Zheng Qingchuan's life was also concerned about it for a while, Mama Hu suddenly said disappointedly: "It's not good to waste the embroidery thing, if your aunt knows, I'm afraid you will have to worry about not being able to sleep" After speaking, Mama Hu glanced at Zheng Qingchuan meaningfully, the meaning was obvious, I think it was Zheng Qingchuan's bad example that brought Ah Qing and Ah Yun badly.Zheng Qingchuan sat idlely, with a dignified posture, smiling and drinking tea, pretending not to see Mama Hu's gaze.Ah Yun immediately retorted proudly: "But, I have learned to paint" After speaking, she happily went to bring her paintings to Mama Hu to admire.Unsurprisingly, Mama Hu praised it a lot, and praised Zheng Qingchuan, who had nothing in the sky and no in the ground, to continue to treat herself as if she did not exist.Xiaofu Mama asked Ah Qing with concern: "Have the five girls learned to take care of the house" In the Hong family, Ah Qing and A Yun are called the fifth girl and the sixth girl, and they are counted in the Hong family's ranking of granddaughters, which is a kind of favor.Ah Qing said without thinking: "After learning the affairs of the family, now I am in charge of the account books and in my hands" Xiaofu Mama was overjoyed and smiled with satisfaction.The reason why Mrs.
Hong was in a hurry to take Ah Qing and Ah Yun back to the capital was because she was afraid that they would have no one to teach them housework in Jingzhou.You must know that before a woman gets married, she should learn what she should learn, and then she will not be bullied so that she will not be bullied and powerless.Ah Qing and Ah Yun used to go to school in the Hong family for ten years, and they learned all the things of studying, needlework and etiquette, but they were left to take care of family affairs.The two girls have actually learned the rest of the elders of the Hong family so smoothly now, there is nothing to worry about Xiaofu Mama looked at Zheng Qingchuan kindly and thanked her: "Thank you for being so attentive to the fifth and sixth girls." ”Zheng Qingchuan smiled and humbled himself: "Don't dare to be."
It was Ah Qing and Ah Yun who were smart and sensible, and their grandmother usually taught them. ”Mama Hu heard the flaw, frowned and said: "Is the cousin girl in charge of all the affairs of the family, in fact, the unmarried girl can help take care of the family affairs, it's best not to take care of them all" said, and looked at Zheng Qingchuan with a veto look at Zheng Qingchuan, what he did was wrong Zheng Qingchuan was very calm, and looked at Ah Qing, the meaning of his eyes was: Ah Qing, now is the time for you to protect me, Ah Qing threw Zheng Qingchuan a refreshing look, and said fearlessly: "Mama Hu, you heard it wrong, I didn't have all the package, just the account book" Mama Hu was generalized, she was embarrassed to dwell on this question again, so she changed the topic and asked: "Isn't there any news from the seventh girl" Ah Qing was puzzled and immediately asked: "What news" Mama Hu smiled intriguingly, but did not answer this question.These two grandmothers are equivalent to the principals of those elders in the capital, so they are so bold when they ask, but when asked about private matters, Zheng Qingchuan's expression suddenly changed, and he became serious, not smiling like just now, staring at Mama Hu for a moment, and said, "Mama Hu, we will write letters to the elders, and there are some things that you don't have to worry about." ”Mama Hu was generalized again, her face was very ugly, and she gritted her teeth and endured it without having a seizure.Mama Hu thought to herself: The seventh girl is now playing majestic in front of me, probably forgot, if it weren't for the eldest lady's matchmaking, would you be able to marry Young Master Su to be so unkind to me, hum Mama Hu Where is it so easy to be defeated Mama Hu made persistent efforts, and asked: "Didn't the young master take a concubine" Zheng Qingchuan smiled this time and said: "Mama Hu, is it a happy event to take a concubine, is there a law in the imperial court that requires a concubine If you don't take a concubine, won't the family atmosphere of the Su family be harmonious" A-Qing puffed up his face and was not happy, said to Mama Hu seriously: "Mama Hu, brother doesn't want to take a concubine, don't care so much" "It's the slave's fault" Mama Hu lowered her head, feeling very aggrieved, and finally shut up.Xiaofu Mama smiled and played a round game: "The love between husband and wife is the best, and the old lady, the four ladies and aunts in the capital must be very happy":
