First Wife of Zhu Family

Chapter 286

I saw Guan'er, who was running towards a pile of rouge and gouache before, pulled out a small toy from the corner at some point. She sat down on the couch and looked at the new toy with her chubby little fingers. Poke twice.

Guan'er didn't know what she took, but Song Zixun could see it clearly, it was a seal the size of a palm.Originally, this was not a rare thing in the trial ceremony: people at that time were always proud of their sons who caught this thing when they were catching Zhou. The meaning of prosperity.

But this thing is definitely not for girls—those strict people won't even let it appear at the girls' Zhou Catch Banquet.

Although the restrictions on women in this dynasty are not strict, most of the noble women can read and read like men, and show their faces in public, but that's all.At this time, a little girl is holding a seal in her hand that symbolizes success and fame. What does this represent...

Zhongtang, who had heard a few praises and laughter from time to time before, suddenly fell silent.Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, and no one dared to speak.

The smile on Mrs. Song's face had disappeared without a trace, she pursed her lips tightly, her expression was stern, and even the rest of the Song family changed their expressions.Only Song Zixun remained calm and calm, standing with his hands behind his back with a calm expression, and only he knew that the clothes next to his body were soaked with sweat.

Guan'er herself was still ignorant, how could she know that in just the blink of an eye, the adults present had already turned their minds a few times, she poked the seal twice more, and then stood up unsteadily.

"That's right!" She raised her head and gave Song Zixun a big smile, then suddenly staggered towards him.

Song Zixun was afraid that she would fall, so he quickly reached out to catch her, but the little guy plunged into his arms with a smile on his face, "I want it, I want it!" He put the seal straight into Song Zixun's palm.

The tense and uneasy atmosphere in the room was instantly swept away by Guan'er's actions.Only then did everyone wake up like a dream: the seal of the child of the lover's family is not for herself, but for her father!I don't know who was the first to utter an exclamation of admiration, and then the big guy reacted quickly, and the auspicious words rushed out like a flood that opened the gate.Some praised Guaner for being cute and sensible, and some praised her for her early wisdom and filial piety, but more people surrounded Song Jinze and Song Zixun to congratulate her.

Isn't it?Right now, the Duke’s royal family is in full bloom, and the eldest son from the direct line is even young and promising, with a bright future. Now that a child can grab a seal for her father every week, doesn’t it just indicate that the Duke’s mansion will definitely have a lot to do in the future? , will it go to the next level?

Among the crowd, there were those who were already on good terms with the Song family, and there were also those who wanted to flatter and flatter. For a while, they kept praising Guan'er so much that there was nothing in the world, and Song Zixun was even the dragon and phoenix among the people, the best among them.

...Du Rongzhi was also surrounded by a group of female relatives to congratulate her.Mrs. Cen, the wife of the Marquis of Yongning, was told by Yu Zhanyan because she was at home. At this time, she deliberately sighed, and said to the wife who was congratulating him with melancholy, "It's fine... I just looked at Sister Guan just now. Clinging to her father's enthusiasm, I really envy him!"

"Isn't that so?" Second Young Master Yu's wife, Mrs. Jiang, knew the meaning of the string song, and agreed with a smile, "I can't see that the young master is usually so serious, but he is so kind to his daughter."

Cen secretly gave Jiang a look of approval, deliberately raised her eyebrows towards Guan'er, covered her lips and said with a smile, "Look quickly, the way the young master looks at my sister, is it going to hurt her so much?" Gone to the bone?"

Everyone followed the trend, and saw that the nurse not far away was about to go up to hug Guan'er, but the little guy was very unhappy, twisting his chubby body and hanging on Song Zixun's neck, refusing to get off, the latter had no expression on his face at all. Displeased, he lowered his head and kissed his daughter's cheek, whispering something softly in her ear...

Du Rongzhi only felt something floating in his heart, soft and warm, and he didn't have time to think about it, and he didn't dare to think about it.She was afraid that those subtle touches and longings would take root and sprout unscrupulously in the bottom of her heart like many times before, until they were uprooted by the bloody reality again...

Du Rongzhi lowered her eyes and smiled lightly, "Is there any parent in the world who doesn't love their children? The son of the world must have the same heart for his brothers and sisters in the family. Don't make fun of me, sister..."

"Well——" Cen curled her lips disapprovingly, "I don't know about others, but our uncle, who usually can't even smile at the children, scares the younger ones in the family every time they see him. It's like a mouse seeing a cat, trembling so much that it can't even say a word! How could your young master be so kind to Guan'er!"

Everyone praised Song Zixun's "kind father and tenderness" again and again.

Fortunately, this situation didn't last long. Just when Du Rongzhi was so annoyed by listening to it, and he could hardly maintain his perfunctory smile, Song Zixun finally managed to coax Guan'er—the little guy, although Not very happy, but reluctantly returned to the couch and continued the "Zhou Zhou" ceremony that she had not yet completed.

Guan'er didn't do anything wrong this time, she looked left and right, and finally picked up a brush and held it in her hand complacently, imitating adults, scribbling on the couch with her buttocks up, She didn't give up until she earned a reputation as a "talented woman" of "a tiger father without a dog girl".

At this time, the banquet should also begin.

Because of the troubles of catching Zhou earlier, Mrs. Song's spirit was a little weak, and she had to go back to rest first after she pleaded guilty to several old ladies from aristocratic families.

Seeing this, Mrs. Shen hurriedly stepped forward to help her.

Mrs. Song waved it away calmly, and said calmly, "There are so many distinguished guests at home today, please treat them well... Just let Brother Xun and his wife see me off."

Du Rongzhi was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and supported Mrs. Song's arm, "Yes, grandma."

Shen's smile froze, and then she told Du Rongzhi, "I'd like to serve your grandmother."

Du Rongzhi smiled softly, "Mother, don't worry, daughter-in-law will save."

Mrs. Song nodded, and took Shen Shuyan's hand kindly again, but her tone was obviously much gentler than before, "Ah Yan also worked hard today, if you feel tired, go back and rest, don't force it."

Shen Shuyan also felt Mrs. Song's indifference towards Mrs. Chen. Although she was a little uneasy in her heart, she didn't show it at all on her face. She just smiled at Mrs. Song, "Don't worry, grandma, granddaughter-in-law knows."

Only then did Mrs. Song show a faint smile on her face, she supported Du Rongzhi's arm, and walked out surrounded by a group of people.
