First Wife of Zhu Family

Chapter 289 Three Encounters
Seeing Shen's face turn from dazed to livid...

Not far away, Du Rongzhi turned around calmly, pulled out her handkerchief and pressed the corners of her lips.

At the wine table, Mrs. Chu, Mrs. Zhongyi Hou Shizi, was talking happily and eloquently.Du Rongzhi listened attentively with her chin resting on her face. At the end, she held up the wine glass with a sweet smile and said softly, "Sister Chu, I respect you with this glass of wine."

... After a while, Shen came back with a normal expression, and Du Rongzhi already smelled of alcohol.

"Mother," she smiled with curved lips, her little face flushed like a peach blossom, "my daughter-in-law wants to go back and change her clothes."

Shen Shi nodded in a dispirited manner, "Go."

................................................

Camellias of various colors were planted on both sides of the road, Du Rongzhi took a light pink one and played with it in the palm of his hand.

"It was just now that Haoyue came back and said that everything went well over there, and everyone has already gone back... Let the young lady rest assured." She said cautiously, "And Nanny An..."

Du Rongzhi glanced at her coldly, Qing He hurriedly lowered her head, "Slave Chao Yue."

Du Rongzhi threw the flowers aside, wiped her hands with a handkerchief, "It's good that you know."

Hearing her tone of voice, Qing He felt a little relieved.After thinking about it, he said in a low voice, "I still don't know anything..."

Du Rongzhi looked at her, "Say it."

Qing He pursed her lips in embarrassment, "Your servant is just watching, the young lady was talking and laughing at the banquet earlier, as if she didn't care at all..." She paused, and whispered, "Don't worry about Yuan Yuan Did they annoy Madam Zhuang and make Madam Zhuang explode on the spot?"

"Madam Zhuang won't do anything to them." Du Rongzhi smiled disapprovingly, "not only can't punish them, but she will definitely pretend that nothing happened."

Facing Shang Qinghe's puzzled gaze, she said calmly, "Mrs. Zhuang just ran into two gossip girls while walking. This kind of thing is common in every family and house. Come to the house with her as a guest." What does she have to do with outsiders? If she offends Yuanyuan and Xianyun on the spot, it will really catch people's attention and attract criticism. There is a saying that it is melon fields and plums. At that time, regardless of whether our third young master's marriage with the Zhuang family is successful or not, Miss Zhuang His reputation is bound to suffer some losses." Du Rongzhi curled her lips into a smile, "Tell me, how can someone like Mrs. Zhuang, who loves daughters so much, disregard her daughter's reputation in the boudoir and act rashly?"

"So it's like this..." Qing He thought about the cause and effect carefully, and couldn't help but suddenly realized.Only in this way, this marriage must be...

Maybe it was because the tangled look on her face was too obvious, Du Rongzhi sneered, raised her eyebrows and said, "Why, don't you think it's a bit contemptible for me to sabotage the third young master's marriage?"

"No servant." Qing He quickly shook her head, "...Although Yuanyuan and Xianyun were arranged by the Young Madam, the things they said are absolutely true..."

Even their servants sometimes discuss in private: these young masters in the Duke's Mansion, the eldest master is cold and serious, the second master is gentle and refined, the fourth master is easy-going and kind, and even the youngest fifth master is naturally generous. Master...

"Third Young Master, he... is indeed not a good match for a woman." Qing He hesitated and said, "It's just that the servants don't quite understand... Young Madam has nothing to do with the Second Household, so why did she suddenly intervene in the Second Household's affairs this time?"

Du Rongzhi curled her lips coldly, "I'm really not interested in the matter of the second bedroom. But—" She looked ahead, her voice suddenly paused.

Qing He didn't know why, so she followed her gaze and saw a long and tall young man standing on the lake pavilion in front of him, facing the lake, leaning on the railing to face the wind, he seemed very comfortable.

The man also heard footsteps and couldn't help but turn around.

A black cloak set off his face like a crown jade, with sword eyebrows and star eyes, very handsome.

Du Rongzhi was slightly taken aback, and even Qing He couldn't help but let out a low "Huh".

Although it was a little inappropriate, the current diversion was too deliberate... Du Rongzhi thought to herself, but hesitated for a moment, and then continued to walk over generously.

At this moment, Chu Shenyao was also a little surprised.

Originally, when he returned to Beijing this time, apart from the Chu family, he only had a face-to-face meeting with a few brothers who had grown up playing, and he didn't usually come out to socialize.

But a few days ago, his mother just casually asked him to accompany him to the first birthday banquet of the young daughter of the Duke's Mansion, and he didn't know what was wrong at the time, so he agreed immediately.As a result, today he really ran into Yu Zhanyan's dudes, and almost didn't let them get under the table.

Fortunately, Yu Zhanpeng made a rescue, so he took the opportunity to "piss escape" and slip out to sober up...but he didn't expect to meet an "old friend" here.

"So it's Young Madam." Chu Shenyao bent his lips and bowed to Du Rongzhi politely.

Du Rongzhi smiled lightly.

Previously, everyone gathered in the middle hall to watch Guan'er catch Zhou, so they were not surprised that he recognized him.

"Master Chu, all blessings." Du Rongzhi bowed his knees and blessed him, and said with a smile, "Why are you here alone? But you lost your way?"

Chu Shenyao was taken aback for a moment, and couldn't help but asked in surprise, "Young Madam, do you know who I am?"

Du Rongzhi still had an appropriate smile on his face, "I have met you three times, and they are all handsome and noble. It happened that when I was at the banquet just now, I heard Sister Chu mention to someone that her ancestor's family has traveled for many years. The third cousin also came to the banquet today... Mr. Lenovo's demeanor is exactly the same as Sister Chu's description, so this is the only way to guess."

Chu Shenyao couldn't help laughing.

He was born very well, so he became more and more like a bright moon in the mountains, with a spring breeze blowing on his face, as if his entire face was illuminated.

He smiled heartily, "My first cousin has always been like this. Even the bumps bitten by my own mosquitoes are also baby bumps... I can't imagine that her temperament has not changed after all these years, and the young lady laughed."

Du Rongzhi smiled politely.I thought that when I met this person twice before, although I felt that he was slightly different from the children of ordinary families, his speech was never as casual as today... It seems that the two of them are very familiar.As she thought about it, she saw that his cheeks were slightly red and his eyes were piercing, as if he was about four or five times drunk, so she took two steps back calmly and smiled politely, "Young Master Chu, wait here for a while." , wait for me to ask a woman to lead you out." After saluting, he was about to leave.

Chu Shenyao saw that the smile on her face was always decent and alienated, as if she was wearing a mask, and felt that the smile was really hypocritical and glaring. For some reason, even the alcohol that had gone down earlier seemed to surge again come up.

He nodded gently, and seeing Du Rongzhi turned around to leave, he suddenly thought of something, and said seriously, "By the way, I wonder if Young Madam still likes those pots of Qilan earlier?"

Du Rongzhi paused.

happy New Year!

It’s been a long time since I’ve had a long story. On the first day of the new year, I chatted with the little angels.

The past year has been an unusually long one for me.In the half a year that I was on hiatus, I experienced the hospitalization of my family members, the death of my elders, and some problems with my own health...

The state of mind at this time is completely different from when I first wrote this article.Here, I would also like to thank everyone for your long-term perseverance, so that after half a year of suspension, I can still find the enthusiasm for creation immediately and devote myself to the state.You may not know how much courage your replies have given me, giving me the confidence to face... everything that is difficult.

If I have to say what I have gained this year...it is probably that I have a deeper understanding of the impermanence of the world, and I have realized more and more how precious everything I have is.

These will inevitably affect the next trend of this story.

So I thought, maybe, I could write a better story than I had originally conceived.

More than one reader once asked me why the heroine hated the hero so much, even though the person who killed her was Fu Shi, why didn't she hate Fu Shi, but was still bitter about the hero.

In fact, just imagine, if there are two people, one you hate deeply, and the other you love in your heart, if they do the same thing to hurt you, who do you think is more hateful?

It is true that Fu killed the heroine's life, but what the hero destroyed was her ability to love and her entire life.

Even if she lives again, even if everything is different from her previous life, even if she herself wanted to live a good life, her mentality is different after all.

She wants to be loved but is afraid of being loved. She doesn't know how long his relationship can last, let alone whether her wholehearted devotion will be in vain in the end.

In my perception, the heroine no longer has the ability to love, she is even sensitive and inferior.Everything Song Zixun did in her previous life made her subconsciously question herself—she was not worth it.

This kind of contradictory mood has existed before, exists now, and will always exist for a long time to come.Therefore, their marriage is destined not to be smooth sailing. Whether it is a male lead or a female lead, they can only test a little bit, change a little bit, and get closer a little bit.

Love is a skill that needs to be learned.

It depends on whether the hero can teach her.

Finally, I would like to talk about something that everyone is more interested in - this article does not change the hero.

Finally, I wish you all a happy reading.

In the new year, I hope to support the genuine version a lot, hahahahaha.
