urge Zhao to marry

Chapter 106
It's no wonder Mrs. Meng is dissatisfied, the meaning in Su's words is almost like urging Qin Mu to go back to Xuanping Hou Mansion, as if she doesn't want him to be in Meng's house.

It also seems to be saying that Qin Mu is not filial, instead of going to accompany his grandmother when he comes back, he lingers at his grandfather's house instead.

Meng Huiyi, who was about to go to the academy, hurriedly got up and apologized after hearing the words: "Grandmother, cousin, forgive me, my mother is warm-hearted, and wants to accompany my cousin to choose a gift for Mrs. Qin."

Mu Zhaozhao looked at the little girl who was less than ten years old with admiration, but she didn't change her expression when she told a lie, it was really admirable.

Although the reason found out is a bit far-fetched, no one here will believe it.

Qin Mu also knew the second aunt's temperament long ago, so he wouldn't bother with her: "Cousin don't need to worry too much, I know the second aunt is kind."

As soon as the words fell, the eyes involuntarily drifted to the other cousin.

It happened that Mu Zhaozhao had a happy smile on his face, as if expecting the second aunt to say something.

Touching her moving eyes, he twirled his fingertips lightly, and there was only one thought in his mind, he wanted to touch her eyebrows, and let her see only himself.

His eyes fell on her pink lips, and he couldn't help but look dazed, his eyes slightly drunk.

He really wanted to know what lip balm she used, so that he could taste it just by looking at it.

As soon as this thought came out, Qin Mu couldn't help but think more. Thinking of the wedding night in the bridal chamber, he was in a daze...

Fortunately, Mrs. Meng has been paying attention to his expression, and said when she saw this, "Okay, I have something to ask Ah Mu, you all go back first."

Qin Mu hurriedly said: "This time, the Holy Majesty rewarded some materials, and I don't need them. I will send them to my first aunt and second aunt later. Aunts and cousins ​​can also make clothes."

Mu Zhaozhao was surprised when he heard the words: "Can we also wear the imperial gift?"

Even if she has lived two lifetimes, this is really the first time she has an imperial gift. She vaguely remembers that the objects bestowed by the Holy Majesty should be offered?

Qin Mu was a little embarrassed to explain that they were not qualified to meet the Holy Spirit. After leading the commander into the palace and returning to his command, the Holy Lord would reward the leader with something.

According to the amount of rewards, the leader chooses the ones who are eye-catching first, and let them, the young generals, choose according to their merits. In addition, for those who have no merits, the commander will also pay some money out of his own pocket.

Of course, the people who go out together are good friends. If you see someone you like, you will let the brothers part with each other and exchange it with a dagger or something else.

Why did Qin Mu wait for his grandfather and the others to go out before talking about rewards? It was because he didn't choose calligraphy and painting or high-quality ginseng this time. My aunt and two cousins ​​made a suit of outer clothes.

He immediately asked someone to fetch it, and when Mu Zhaozhao saw the clusters of flowers, the gorgeous and exquisite brocade exudes a unique charm, his eyes really shined: "Wow, it's so beautiful!"

She is just a layman, she loves money, she likes to have fun, and she also likes such beautiful things.

It is also rare for Mrs. Su to have the same mood as Mu Zhaozhao, caressing the fabric carefully, and smiling from ear to ear: "Yes, I have seen before that the old lady of the Duke's Mansion also used Tibetan blue sapphire blue ground balls to wrap more than three pieces. The clothes made of Jinshou character pattern makeup and brocade are really beautiful, I never expected to have such an imperial gift."

Then he praised him with a smile on his face, and then he hugged the fabric with satisfaction, not forgetting to call Yu Wanniang and their mother and daughter to leave, and was going to study what kind of outerwear to make.

When everyone left, Mrs. Meng also waved her hand to signal the maidservant to leave, and then looked at the eldest grandson and sighed: "You still don't give up, do you?"

He has few light-colored coats. Last year, he asked his embroiderer to sew some new clothes for him. After he found out, he specifically said that he didn’t like light-colored robes. It's wasted there too.

Let her order people to make him robes of sky blue, blue, and navy blue in the future.

Fortunately, she really believed it, and then asked Xiu Niang to prepare dark-colored robes for him.

As a result, he came out now wearing a thin summer robe, clearly for the sake of demeanor and not temperature.

Seeing everything in her grandmother's penetrating eyes, Qin Mu was also a little embarrassed: "Grandma, maybe the eldest aunt is reserved? It is said that there are hundreds of women in the family begging, maybe if I ask a few more times, the eldest aunt will agree? "

"Besides, can I ask my uncle to make peace?"

"Me and my cousin went to Ping'an County to ride a ride with my cousin before. Now that we have a physical relationship, I have to be responsible to her."

Mrs. Meng felt that she was going to be mad at him.

If this eldest grandson can deny it, she doesn't even want to.

She took a deep breath before holding back her violent temper: "As you can see, she has little experience, and she doesn't even know whether those imperial gifts can be used or confessed. Is the Houfu living well?"

Qin Mu pursed his lower lip before opening his mouth: "If you don't know it, you can learn it. Grandma will take her out for a walk and teach her more. Zhao Zhao is very smart, and she will definitely learn it soon."

"Forget it, let's not talk about this." Mrs. Meng felt that she must have owed him in her previous life, so she couldn't bear to see him disappointed: "Tomorrow is your grandmother's birthday banquet, and I have already prepared things for you Yes, remember to take it with you when you go back later.”

Even though she wanted to keep away from the two wives of the Xuanping Hou Mansion forever, but for Qin Mu's sake, she still had to make proper preparations and not allow anyone to make mistakes.

Qin Mu's expression became serious: "Don't worry, grandma, I know the seriousness, and you should be careful."

When he thought that his aunt and Zhaozhao would also go, he felt very uneasy: "How about I let Qi Xiao pretend to be a maid and stay by your side?"

"No need, they won't be so stupid that they will embarrass us in public." Mrs. Meng asked again with concern if he was injured outside.

...

Early in the morning on the seventh day of September, there were a lot of guests in front of the magnificent Zhumen of Xuanpinghou Mansion.

Mu Zhaozhao followed his grandmother and the others out of the carriage without looking sideways. Su Ye handed a post to the woman who came to welcome the guests, and immediately the woman led several people in.

Even if Mrs. Meng harbored resentment towards Mrs. Qin, the superficial etiquette would not allow her to find fault.

Especially in the Meng family, only Meng Rong is a minor official of the Hanlin Academy. According to the rules, they can't come too late.

It's not long before autumn, and the scenery in Xuanpinghou's mansion is still very good, the windows are bright and clean, the autumn osmanthus is fragrant, and all kinds of precious chrysanthemums are in full bloom.

Mu Zhaozhao followed the elders through the winding corridors before reaching the end of the corridor.

Yanshou Residence has five main rooms with white walls and glazed tiles, which looks very grand and exquisite.

After all, ordinary people cannot use glazed tiles now.

In front of the door, there are four maidservants dressed in light pink pinched onions and green shoots, and they will help them open the curtain of crane extension when they see visitors: "Please, honored guests."

Although Mrs. Qin is nearly fifty years old, there are no wrinkles on her plump face. She is wearing a vermilion tufted beanie, with suet jade jewelry on her wrists and ears. Gentle and amiable woman.

She was still talking to several other female relatives of the same family, when she saw them coming to salute, she said gently: "My wife, please sit down."

The maid next to her cleverly stepped forward to help Mrs. Meng who had already saluted, and asked her to sit down.

Mrs. Qin even exchanged greetings with her: "I told the eldest son yesterday to ask him to pick you up. I was just thinking about asking someone to see if the eldest son is still there, but I didn't expect you to come. "

Looking at Yu Wanniang and the others who were saluting to him, he waved his hands with a smile: "Get up, I still know Brother Rong's wife and daughter, and I think the other two are Brother Yu's wife and daughter, right? Hurry up." Come forward and let me see what kind of beauty it is that can make Brother Yu marry back in such a hurry."

What he said seems to be that Meng Yu and Yu Wanniang had some beginnings and ends before they got married.

Yu Wanniang and Mu Zhaozhao took two steps forward and greeted them again.

Mrs. Qin smiled and praised: "You are really two beauties. If I didn't know that you are mother and daughter, I would have thought you were sisters?"

He also took the wooden box from the maid at the back, and handed it to Yu Wanniang with his own hands, with an amiable attitude: "This is my belated meeting gift, Brother Yu and daughter-in-law, you take it."

After Yu Wanniang took it with both hands, she thanked her and wanted to leave with her daughter.

But the woman next to her politely asked her to sit down with Mrs. Meng.

But at this moment, Mrs. Qin had already held Mu Zhaozhao's hand, and looked at her calmly, but asked her gently how old she was, and where she had been to play after coming to the capital, and so on.

Mu Zhaozhao felt that the old lady's words were full of tricks, so he simply pretended to be shy, and his reply was very concise, and he had no intention of talking to her at all.

No matter how stupid she is, she also understands that she can't like herself.

Old Mrs. Qin's words revealed closeness inside and out. If an ordinary little girl was praised so much by an old lady in a high position, she would definitely be very happy and excited.

But now Mrs. Qin looked at the shy little girl, and she couldn't figure out whether she was really shy or just trying to put herself off.

After all, she really didn't see that Mu Zhaozhao was ecstatic.

She let go of her hand and said with a smile: "Good boy, go to the back garden for a stroll, the chrysanthemums are blooming right now."

Mu Zhaozhao definitely didn't want to leave, and said shyly, "Thank you, old lady, I want to stay with grandma."

"A good boy is so filial. It's rare that you are willing to accompany us old bones." Mrs. Qin introduced several old ladies and wives present for them after speaking.

Of course, Mrs. Meng and the others had the lowest status here, and they all got up to salute.

After exchanging pleasantries, before they could hold the teacups, another woman came in and bowed her knees happily: "Old lady, the lady and young lady of Wen Shangshu's residence are here."

Mrs. Qin couldn't hide her joy: "Please come in quickly."
