Fair Lady

Long after Shujie and Haoning left, Zhengran was still leaning against the door of the flower hall in a daze, and the top of his line of sight happened to be a solitary plum blossom in the corner.

Yu's mother took the cloak and walked over. She took off the cloak when she was in the flower hall, and she didn't put it on when she went out to see off the guests just now.

Yu's mother looked at Zhengran who was "concentrating on watching plum blossoms", shook her head and sighed: "Young master, put on your cape quickly, don't catch a cold! You, you have loved watching plum blossoms since you were a child, and you can never get tired of watching them. "

Uh... Zhengzheng came back to his senses, was he staring at Meihua? "Mom, I look like my father, but I still look like my mother"

Yu's mother blurted out: "Of course you look like the lord. Speaking of which, you really don't look like your mother at all. Your face and mouth are like your father." In fact, Yu's mother was very depressed. Miss gave birth to the young master, but the young The master and his own lady (the young master's mother) are not alike at all.

When the young lady gave birth to the young master, she was already married and followed her husband back to her hometown.Later, when her husband died, she went to seek refuge with the young lady, only to find out that the young lady died of dystocia, leaving behind a son who was less than three years old.The lord thought that she had always been loyal to the young lady, and entrusted the young lord to her...

Mama Yu sighed, relatively speaking, the young master's mouth is quite similar to the lord's, but the mouths of the men in the lord's family seem to be so thin, and they are as gorgeous as ever, more beautiful than women.

Yu Zhengran has been with Yu's mother since he was a child, and he loves mother and child. If Yu's mother has the slightest flaw in her face, she will definitely not be able to escape his eyes.In other words, he does look like his father.

Exhaling a long breath, Yu Zhengran was very grateful: "It's okay, it's okay."It's all just a coincidence, but he and Qi Haoning are really destined!He is destined to be an enemy, is this the so-called evil fate?Alas, speaking of them, they are cousins, but unfortunately, the royal family is the most ruthless!

Yu's mother helped Zhengran straighten his cloak and left, Zhengran only really looked at the plum blossom at this moment.

A little bit of pink seems to be incompatible with the depressed winter, but there are only plum blossoms standing in the corner like this in the cold east wind.Let people feel a little warmth and get a little comfort.

Zhengzheng has always believed that this is the noble habit of plum blossoms - avoiding the season of blooming flowers, blooming proudly in winter alone in the snow.

But at this moment, a question suddenly popped up in Zhengran's mind.Is this lonely "proudness" her own choice?

At this time, Shuyao is also sitting in the garden painting plum blossoms. She will be 13 years old in a few months. Shuyao is tall and has a calm and elegant temperament. If it weren't for her face, she would be younger.She looked like a tall and graceful girl.

Nangong Miao walked towards the garden, holding a letter in his hand.Followed by Hongxiu, Hongyi, and four little maidservants, Hongyi still carried a food box in his hand.

Hongxiu looked at Shuyao's beautiful silhouette and said softly: "Ma'am, Miss Yao'er is getting more and more beautiful. After returning to Beijing, you should start making arrangements for a good marriage for the girl."

Nangong Miao said with a smile: "Yeah, time flies so fast, more than two years have passed in the blink of an eye. Our Yao'er is going to be a big girl." Shuyao practiced martial arts and has a good body.The monthly letter came in the second half of last year.

Hongyi sighed, "It's a pity, the gold list is usually released in late April, and we will have to wait more than seven months before we can return to Beijing. When we return to the capital, all the new civil and military talents will be snatched away? No, no, no." Ma'am, you have to ask Shi Ziye to ask Mrs. Weiyuan Hou to take care of it, and keep the good ones first."

Keep it first?Nangong Miao was amused by Hong Yi's statement, but after thinking about it, it is true that the golden list of talents once every three years is an excellent opportunity for rich families to choose a son-in-law for a lady of the right age.Shuyao herself is a talented woman who is both beautiful and intelligent, both civil and military. How can those princes who have no family background or good appearance be worthy of Shuyao?Hey, unless there is another one like Shujie.

Thinking of her excellent husband-in-law, Nangong Miao stroked the letter in her hand sweetly, and in half a year, they will be able to get together again.

Shuyao was very attentive in painting, and Nangong Miao and his party almost came to the front before realizing: "Sister-in-law brought me snacks again? I will go back to use the snacks after I finish the painting. You always spoil me like this."

Nangong Miao smiled and asked Hongxiu to bring out the warm tremella and bird's nest soup to Shuyao: "What's the matter? You are the only girl in our Hou's mansion. You should be used to it. You, once you are fascinated by what you do, forget it Hours.” This is the case for painting and calligraphy, as well as for martial arts and embroidery.

Shuyao saw the letter in Nangong Miao's hand at a glance, and happily snatched it: "Brother has a letter again?" As long as Shujie is in the capital, he will send the letter back very diligently.

Nangong Miao shot her a look: "Drink the bird's nest soup first, it will be cold in such a cold day, sister-in-law should tell you the content of the letter first."

Shuyao stuck out her pink tongue, obediently put the letter on the table, and ate the bird's nest soup in small mouthfuls.Lan Jin and Zi Jin snickered in the back, and only Mrs. Shizi could make the girl so obedient, otherwise, she would have to read Shizi's letter first.

Nangong Miao watched Shuyao gracefully using the bird's nest soup with satisfaction. Shuyao's siblings all respected her as a sister-in-law, and they were more intimate than before.In the past two years or so, Nangong Miao has truly found the feeling of "the eldest sister-in-law is like a mother". Because of the status of "the eldest sister-in-law", she feels more and more fond of Shuyao sister and brother.

"Your elder brother said that those in the adoptive father's family are still unwilling to give up. A while ago, the adoptive grandmother was caught in the cold, and immediately sent a few girls over to 'serve the illness'." Nangongmiao's voice was tinged with sarcasm. The people in the family have a big heart, not only staring at Jin Xida, but also Shujie.

Fortunately, the Liao family today is no longer the old lady of the Jin Mansion who wanted to control her son in order to keep her status.Her mentality is becoming more and more peaceful now, all she wants is for her son and righteous grandson to be safe and happy.Especially every time Jin Xida or Shujie left Beijing, she had to give thousands of instructions, and she also prayed devoutly to pray for Buddha every day.

The girls from the Liao family came to Wenyuanhou's mansion for various reasons to "live for a short time", and she also welcomed them, but she kept a close eye on them, and never gave them a chance to play tricks to "force" their son and grandson, which also made Jin Xida and Shujie even more nervous I want to be close to her.

Shuyao said with a smile: "People often do stupid things because of some obsessions. Now that the righteous grandmother has no obsessions, how can she be easily used by others?"

"Exactly," Nangong Miao nodded, "Which mother doesn't love her son?"

……

The aunt and sister-in-law were having a good talk, when a little maid came to report: "Madam, Miss, Miss Shuqing is here."

In the past two years, the Yongping Hou Mansion's "respect for the old man's last wish" has not had any contact with the Xia Mansion. Xia Shuyao got married, Xia Shuwan, and Xia Shuqing got married. He was blocked, and only said: "The master's family is filial, so it is not suitable to attend the wedding banquet."

For the Yongping Houfu, the Xiafu is now a complete stranger. Although the three Shuyao brothers and sisters did not dislike Shuqing before, they still kept a distance from Shuqing in order to avoid Xiafu's misunderstanding. (To be continued.
