Wonderful Puppet

"Old lady, the eldest girl is here." Hong Xi shouted from outside the curtain.

"Let her in."

It was hot, and Luo Zhiya's forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat, her cheeks were slightly red, and as soon as she entered the room, the cool air rushed over her face.

"Greetings to grandma."

"Come here and sit down, why are you here on such a hot day?"

Luo Zhiya stood up, walked to the old lady and sat down, and began to complain: "Grandmother, the Muscat grapes sent today are really sweet. Goro and Liulang didn't have enough, so the two little guys fought."

Hearing that the two little grandchildren could eat it, the old lady was very happy: "Wu Lang and Liu Lang like to eat it, Yuan Niang, you will take this basket of grapes home later, it was just sent by your sister-in-law."

Luo Zhiya got even angrier when she heard this, and pretended to be calm and said: "It turns out that my sister-in-law brought it to my grandmother. Just now when my granddaughter went to her sister-in-law's place, she found that all the maids in the yard were eating grapes together. Grandma, Goro and the others don't have enough grapes. My sister-in-law Then even the maids are full, how do you think the sister-in-law can manage the house?"

The old lady narrowed her eyes after hearing this: "What is Yuan Niang doing at your sister-in-law's place?"

"Uh, my granddaughter is planning to go to Tianxiu Pavilion to pick up some embroidery thread."

The old lady patted Luo Zhiya's white and tender hand: "Then hurry up, it's getting late."

"Grandmother, sister-in-law, she—"

The old lady didn't even raise her eyelids: "Your sister-in-law told me, maybe it was delivered by mistake."

"Wrong delivery?" Luo Zhiya's voice suddenly rose, "Grandmother, can you send two big baskets if you send it wrong?"

The old lady restrained her smile, and glanced at Luo Zhiya lightly.

Luo Zhiya's momentum suddenly dropped.

Although the grandmother is usually approachable appearance.But no one would dare to be presumptuous if they were downcast.

She had heard from her mother that her grandmother went to the battlefield with her grandfather and killed people.

"It was delivered by mistake." The old lady said lightly.

"Grandmother—" Luo Zhiya felt unwilling.

What's wrong with grandma, she obviously didn't like sister-in-law earlier, how come she turned towards sister-in-law everywhere in just a few months?

"Yuan Niang, go quickly, buy more embroidery thread, and practice female red." The old lady gave Luo Zhiya a purse containing silver nudes.Never mention grapes.

Luo Zhiya squeezed her purse, and said goodbye with a sullen breath, but the more she thought about it, the more unwilling she became. She stood at the door and hesitated for a while, then heard a faint voice coming through the crystal bead curtain.

Luo Zhiya pretended to straighten her dress and stopped in her tracks.

"The He family in Yanjiang plans to come to celebrate my birthday? Is it the eldest grandson of the eldest family of the He family who came this time?"

"Yes, old lady." Madam Yang's voice sounded.

The old lady sighed: "I thought I should have come a few years ago, but it's good if I come, the agreement of that year has finally come to an end. Pass on my meaning, and when the He family comes, you must not neglect .”

"Old lady, don't worry, this old slave knows."

Luo Zhiya was confused.Go straight to Xinyuan.

Tian is lying down and resting.

Maybe it was lying on the bed for a long time pretending to be sick, why do you feel that your body is getting weaker and weaker?

Listen to the servant girl telling the eldest girl that she is here.Busy let her in.

Luo Zhiya poured out her grievances: "Mother, do you think grandma fell for sister-in-law's dick soup?"

"what happened?"

Luo Zhiya hurriedly explained the reason, and then said bitterly: "Grandmother not only didn't talk about sister-in-law, but also made her face sullen, mother, what's the matter with you?"

Tian suddenly sat up.

No, she really can't get sick anymore.

That Zhen Shi.Playing cards out of common sense at all!

Goro and Liulang fight over grapes, and Yuanniang goes out.It was all guided by her without a trace, in order to lead to the matter of sending more grapes to Qingfengtang.

But Mrs. Zhen actually ran directly to talk to the old lady.

Doesn't she know what it means to be reserved and calm, huh?

Really pissed her off!

"Mother, what's wrong with you?" Seeing Tian's face turned pale, Luo Zhiya panicked.

"I'm fine." Tian took a deep breath.

At this time, she can't really be sick, otherwise Zhen will be even more proud.

"Yuan Niang, don't you still want to buy embroidery thread, go quickly."

"It's about this time, I won't go." Luo Zhiya also felt a little irritable, and asked after a moment of hesitation, "Mother, do you know Yanjiang He's family?"

"What? Yanjiang He Family?" Tian's expression changed, "Yuanniang, where did you hear that?"

"Yes, I overheard my grandmother saying that it seems that the Yanjiang He family is coming to celebrate my grandmother's birthday. Mom, you know who they are? Yanjiang is far away from the capital city, and they have come all the way from thousands of miles away. He Shou, you must have a close relationship with our family, right?"

Tian glanced at the flower-like daughter, made up his mind, and signaled the maids to back down.

Luo Zhiya felt even more strange.

"Yuanniang, do you know why neither you nor Erniang are on the list?"

Luo Zhiya shook her head.

She knew that this selection was to select concubines for the clan's children. Among the several princes, the sixth prince had an engagement with his daughter Zhao Feicui within a hundred days of Mu Enhou's death last year, but the next two princes did not have wives.

With the status of the Duke's Mansion, if she runs for the election, as long as she is elected, she will definitely be Xu Yizheng's wife.

Thinking about the position of princess, it is inevitable to feel a little hot, but the reservedness of her daughter's family made it impossible for her to ask why.

Luo Zhiya is not stupid. Hearing what Tian said, she had an idea. Could it be that she did not run for the election because it has something to do with the Yanjiang He family?

But the second sister didn't run for the election, so it couldn't be related to the He family.

There is no reason for the second daughter to make a family in a large family.

"Mother, please tell your daughter what's going on."

Tian's face was very ugly, and he took a sip of tea before saying: "It's a long story, mother will make the long story short. Your grandfather and the head of the He family in Yanjiang were life and death friends, and the head of the He family saved your grandfather's life." Well, the two of you made an agreement to be the in-laws of your children. But who would have expected that in your father's generation, both families would be male, so this marriage contract will continue to your generation. "

Luo Zhiya blushed: "Mother means, it's—"

Tian's face darkened: "The suitable candidates are you and Er Niang."

"How come my second sister and I are both. Do we still let people pick and choose the girls in our Duke's Mansion?" Luo Zhiya was a little displeased when she heard this.

Tian gave her a sharp look: "You silly girl, do you know that if Erniang wasn't close to your age, the marriage contract would have fallen on you."

"Why, is this marriage a bad one?" Luo Zhiya asked in embarrassment.

"It's not just bad. Although the He family in Yanjiang is a rich family of farming and studying, the eldest grandson who wants to get married is blind! Originally, his family proposed to withdraw from the marriage, but your grandfather refused. If it wasn't for your mother, you wouldn't be ashamed. Stop it, your marriage was settled at that time. Didn't you see that your third aunt is usually indifferent to people, she really hates me in her heart. "

Speaking of relatives, it is good that the elders and children are in order, but she is only such a daughter, why should she be raised as a daughter in the palm of her hand to marry a blind man.Just because Yuanniang is one year older than Erniang?

She is not reconciled!

Luo Zhiya was completely dumbfounded, her face gradually turned pale, her fingers tightly grasped Tian's sleeves: "Mother, don't my daughter marry a blind man, absolutely not!"

Tian patted Luo Zhiya on the back comfortingly: "Don't panic, Yuan Niang, isn't the grandson of the He family coming? There is only one of him, and you and Er Niang are two people."

"Mother—" Luo Zhiya opened her mouth.

Thinking of Luo Zhihui marrying that blind man.Some couldn't bear it, but after thinking about it, if it wasn't the second younger sister who got married, or she was married, she swallowed the words silently.

After leaving Xinyuan, Luo Zhiya has been restless, wandering around Qingfengtang unconsciously.

What's not to like when I was a child.They would always talk to their eldest brother, although the eldest brother is only a cousin.He treats her better than her own brother.

Since when did the big brother look at him with cold eyes and no warmth?

She doesn't believe that there is a difference between a man and a woman when they grow up. Will the brother-sister relationship disappear because they grow up?

Hmph, it must be sister-in-law!

The elder brother only changed after he fell into the water last year.

The faint laughter came from Qingfengtang.

Luo Zhiya walked around the courtyard wall to a certain place, looked in through the diamond-shaped carved window wall, and saw a swing hanging under two silk tree.

A slender woman stood on a swing, and behind her were two pretty maidservants in pink pushing her vigorously.

The woman could swing to the highest point every time, and the green skirt instantly bloomed into a green rose in mid-air, extremely enchanting.

The pink Albizia julibrissin fell down and was blown by the wind along with cheerful laughter.

Looking away, I saw the man in Tsing Yi standing on the steps, quietly looking at the woman on the swing, with a helpless smile on the corner of his mouth.

This picture is so beautiful that it is really dazzling.

Luo Zhiya unknowingly clenched her fist, and then let go, the palm of her hand was a tiny half-moon mark.

With the sound of footsteps, Luo Zhiya turned around and left in a hurry. The light yellow skirt drew a graceful arc and disappeared in front of the green painted window wall.

Zhen Miao blinked and shouted: "Stop pushing, let me come down."

When the swing became less wobbly, he jumped off and ran to Luo Tianxuan with his skirt in hand.

"Why don't you play anymore?" There was a pampering in Luo Tianxuan's eyes that he hadn't noticed.

It was just when chatting while eating grapes, she casually mentioned the swing under the grape trellis when she was a child, and she made one with great interest, just like a child.

Zhen Miao wiped off her sweat and smiled brightly: "I seem to have seen someone walking past the wall just now."

"Who?" A dark color flashed in Luo Tianxuan's eyes, and his bright pupils suddenly turned cold, as if they were immersed in a cold spring.

Zhen Miao tilted her head and thought for a while: "It seems to be Yuan Niang, maybe it's not, I just glanced at it and didn't see it very clearly."

"Yuan Niang will come again in the future, so you don't have to worry about it."

"Oh." Zhen Miao answered honestly.

On the second day, Mrs. Tian came to pay her respects.

The old lady saw that her face was covered with thick powder, but her complexion was still not very good-looking, so she said: "Mrs. Tian, ​​it won't be too late to come to say hello when she is well-raised."

"My daughter-in-law is almost better. I have been worrying about it for so many years, and now I am suddenly free. I am really worried."

Looking at Zhen Miao out of the corner of his eye as he spoke, he saw her sitting there eating snacks with a smile on her face, not answering a word.

I can't help but get angry, why, is it easy to ask God and send God away?

The corner of Zhen Miao's mouth curled up.

Although the housekeeper is annoying and tiring, this is her husband's house, so don't take the initiative to hand over the housekeeping power.

Being virtuous and obedient can't be eaten as food, so come and ask for it if you have the ability.

Come and ask, come and ask for it.

But grandma knew you wanted it.

Zhen Miao's eyes crooked with a smile, and she took another big mouthful of snacks. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
