First Wife of Zhu Family

Chapter 117
...Du Rongzhi sat and talked with Mrs. Cen, the eldest son's wife of the Yongning Hou Mansion.

Mrs. Cen is a jokester, and because her husband has a good relationship with Song Zixun, she is also very affectionate to Du Rongzhi. Seeing her glance at the young woman behind Mrs. Chen from time to time, she smiled and pointed out, "That is from the Chen family. Third Young Madam."

Du Rongzhi was not at all embarrassed by being seen through, but smiled generously, "I heard that the third young master of the Chen family married his uncle's cousin, but I think Mrs. Chen and the third young lady... are not like ordinary aunts and nephews. as close."

"You are young so you don't know." Cen covered her lips with a veil and whispered in her ear, "If you want to talk about this Mrs. Chen Sanshao, she is playing the trumpet through the crack of the door - she has long been famous. " She said, paused on purpose, and seeing Du Rongzhi looking at her curiously, she continued, "Although they have been married for a long time, except for the loss of a brother in the first year, they have had nothing for many years. That's all right, but this third young lady is a formidable master. Anyone who has a happy letter in Chen San's room either dies inexplicably, or dies at birth, all these years. How much was the loss...the year before last, there was a scandal involving one dead body and two lives, and someone called the door...it was widely spread at the time, and it was the Chen family who spent a lot of effort to cover it up...such a daughter-in-law, you Which mother-in-law can like it?"

When Cen said this, Du Rongzhi also remembered it.In her previous life, she had indeed heard about Mrs. Chen Sanshao, but she had already been divorced at that time, because she committed the crime of childlessness.But there is another rumor in the market: It is said that her resignation is related to the second young master of the Chen family...

Du Rongzhi was thinking about it silently, but she heard Cen said again, "But if you tell me, this matter can't be entirely blamed on Mrs. Chen Sanshao - then if Mrs. Chen Sanshao is really good, he can't be in the house." There are as many as six or seven concubines in Guangtong's room, and that's not counting Yingying and Yanyan outside... It's also thanks to Madam Chen Sanshao's temperament, otherwise life would be even more difficult."

Seeing that Du Rongzhi was fascinated, Cen deliberately teased, "Why don't you say that this marriage is the second reincarnation of a woman. It's also my sister's blessing that she can marry a young and promising man who is self-denying and respectful." Jun." As she spoke, she quietly took Du Rongzhi with her elbow, and smiled meaningfully, "I heard from our master that before the eldest and young master got married, there was not even a waiter in the house... How many people are there? I can't even think about it!"

Du Rongzhi was listening to the gossip with gusto, when she suddenly brought it up to her, and she was talking about her boudoir affairs, her face flushed with shame, and she said coquettishly, "Sister is so narrow-minded, this is just a joke..."

"What can't you say?" Cen joked, "It's strange that your young master loves you, this little face who blushes at every turn, don't talk about him, even I love him so much!" Pretending to be frivolous, he touched her face.

Du Rongzhi became more and more ashamed, "I'm really annoyed if my sister says it again."

When the other female relatives saw it, they also laughed and joked, "What are you talking about so happy?"

"I was just saying," Cen smiled and brushed her hair, pointing to Du Rongzhi and said to everyone, "It's true that real people compare themselves to others, and it makes people mad. It's the same as giving birth, but she looks so good-looking after giving birth! Thanks to my meticulous care I chose a few recipes for beautifying and slimming, and I still want to come to present treasures... I'm laughing myself to death!"

The young women present here are either the juniors of various prefectures, or the family members of low-level officials. In terms of family background and status, they are not as good as the two of them. Seeing this, some also echoed that Du Rongzhi is more beautiful than Huajiao, and some said that Cen's exaggerated. The two older brothers and sisters looked as good-looking as if they had never been born before, and they poured out basket after basket of flattery words as if they didn't want money, which made Cen's heart burst into joy and smile.

Du Rongzhi's complexion has returned to normal, and he simply followed Cen's words, "Although I don't know what the prescription is, but seeing my sister's radiant appearance, I know it must be very good, so please love me more and appreciate it." Me."

Cen became more and more complacent, and said angrily, "Look at this poor man, it seems that I am so stingy. It was meant for you, just take it." After speaking, he ordered the girl behind him to hand over the box, Du Rongzhi said Thank you, it's no problem to order Qinghe to accept it.

After more than half an hour, Guan'er, who was carried to the front to show to the Duke and other elders, was carried back by the wet nurse.Du Rongzhi took advantage of the situation to plead guilty, and took her daughter back to Fengqing Court.

"The eldest sister is very good, she is not afraid of strangers at all, she was smiling when she saw the elder just now. The master is so happy that he has been hugging her and is reluctant to let go."

Du Rongzhi nodded with a smile, and lovingly touched her daughter's bald head. The little guy seemed to smell a familiar scent, and opened his mouth to look around.

Du Rongzhi's heart melted when she saw it, and she was thinking about feeding her daughter one more time during this time, when she heard Nurse An coughing from the side.

Du Rongzhi reluctantly withdrew her hand, and said calmly, "My sister is probably tired right now, you can carry her down and feed her, and put her to sleep."

Qiu Shi responded with a smile, hugged Guan'er and retreated.

"Young Madam, don't forget how you promised your slaves back then." Nanny An said as she brought a bowl of rock sugar, tremella and lotus seed soup to Du Rongzhi, "Before you said you would take Miss Sun personally for a month, but now Seeing that Grandpa is going to move back, it would be inappropriate to feed him again."

Seeing that Du Rongzhi remained silent, Mother An intentionally threatened her, "It's not like you haven't seen... This woman who nurses children, who doesn't eat five or six meals a day, all of them are thick-backed, big and three thick... Could it be possible? You want to be like that too?"

Du Rongzhi pursed her lips, and couldn't help but imagine the white, fat and round appearance of her daughters and nurses... Suddenly, even the sweet lotus seed soup in her mouth was like chewing wax.

She put down the spoon sullenly, "Since you don't breastfeed, don't ask them to do these things in the future... I have gained a lot of weight recently." Looking in the mirror for the past two days, my face is a bit round...

Seeing that the effect was achieved, Nanny An persuaded with a smile, "It doesn't matter if you eat a little... When the milk comes back, you will naturally lose weight."

Du Rongzhi pushed the bowl aside, "The banquet is about to start over there, we should go over there." After finishing speaking, he went to Guan'er's room to look around, and saw that the little thing was nestling in Qiu's arms and sucking milk, his eyes were closed Then, he gave a few more instructions in a low voice, and led a group of people out of Fengqing Court.

When they walked into the garden, they suddenly saw a girl walking towards her, holding a bouquet of plum blossoms in her hand.

Seeing Du Rongzhi coming, the little girl quickly bowed her knees and saluted. "The servant has seen the young lady."

The plum blossoms in her hand are delicate and beautiful, and they are well arranged. They look very beautiful when paired with the little girl's blue jacket and skirt.

Du Rongzhi couldn't help but take another look, and said with a smile, "The flowers are chosen well... Which courtyard are you working for?"

The girl lowered her eyes and said respectfully, "Returning to the first young lady, the slaves belong to the fourth young master's yard."
