Fair Lady

On the eighth day of the first lunar month, it was the birthday of the old lady of the Zhen family.

Early in the morning, Shujie took his younger siblings to Daming Fucheng, accompanied by Mother Liu and Erniu.

Today, the Shujie brothers are dressed exactly the same, both wearing light blue brocade straight gowns, with the same color silk sash around their waists, a blue cloud-shaped jade pendant, and a black sable fur cape.

The jade pendants of the two are a pair, one is engraved with strong bamboo on the front, the other is engraved with green pine, and the reverse is the word Xia, and the two sable fur capes were rewarded by the Queen Mother in the palace.

Looking at the handsome and healthy older brother and younger brother, Shuyao had tears in her eyes, and she quickly took the handkerchief and printed it.Shuwen's body has already recovered, and he started to practice martial arts again. His figure is tall and straight, and he is full of heroism. He is more and more similar to his elder brother Shujie. Wearing the same color and style of clothes, at first glance, he looks like a big and small version of a beautiful young man.

Mother Liu gave Shuyao a lotus-colored silk padded gown, a silver wreath on her chest, a pair of plain beaded flowers on her buns, and the pink-blue snowflake brocade-faced white fox-fur ligao gifted by the Empress Dowager for the cloak. Lead the crane cloak.

The three of Shujie seldom dress so formally and "richly", because Xia Linxuan and Donnie Yen like to keep a low profile, and Yen Zirou thinks cotton is comfortable and healthy, so most of the family's clothes are made of fine cotton, and the Shujie brothers usually wear short clothes. dress up.

However, the three brothers and sisters are all smart people, especially Shujie and Shuyao, who has an adult soul inside, and soon thought of the reason why Mama Liu dressed them up like this, so naturally they would not object.

Shuwen sat in the big carriage, and saw Shujie riding beside the carriage through the window, with envy and hatred on his face.He muttered to the big stone driving: "I hate Brother Big Stone, why didn't you bring my 'Lightning'?"

Before going to see Xia Ruoyun in Lucheng, Shuwen started to learn how to ride a horse. Shujie specially bought him a gray pony named "Lightning".

Dashitou turned back and smiled and said, "Second Young Master, although it didn't snow today, some muddy roads are still difficult to walk, and it's nearly two hours' journey from here to Damingfu City. Second Young Master, you will hurt your butt."

Everyone laughed.Shuwen, on the other hand, blinked at Da Shishi desperately in embarrassment, signaling him not to continue to mention his embarrassing stories. At first, he was practicing horse riding in Zhuangzi, and Shuwen grumbled about his butt pain every night.

Mother Liu leaned against the wall of the car, smiling fondly, and straightened the blue ribbon tied on the bun of the book.These three children grow up well.He has an outstanding temperament, and after a little dressing up, even the most plain ones, he exudes an air of nobility, which is not inferior to the children of wealthy families.

Talking and laughing along the way, Si Shizhong.The carriage arrived at the gate of Zhen Mansion.It seems that the Zhen Mansion has invited some distinguished guests today, and the door is open.The head of the house, Sun Zhen Kebao, personally brought the housekeeper to greet him at the door.Since the restaurant poisoning incident, Zhen's house has been in a series of troubles. This time, I want to use the old lady's birthday banquet to add happiness and change luck.

The handsome Shujie jumped off his horse, his movements were chic and graceful, and several female customers who arrived at the same time looked at him one after another.This makes Zhen Kebao, who has always claimed to be romantic and suave, very upset.

Unaware that he had attracted a lot of attention, Shujie went to the carriage and hugged Shuyao.Shuwen jumped down by himself in a beautiful posture.

The three brothers and sisters went there, forming a beautiful scenery, surrounded by whispers and discussions.

"Who is it? The young master and lady of which big family? Is there any new family in the city?"

"That young master is so handsome, the two younger ones are like golden boys and jade girls in front of the Bodhisattva."

"Tsk tsk, look at that noble aura, it should be from the capital, right? You see, the mother next to the little girl is definitely not an ordinary family."

"It must be. The big carriage came from Qingxiangfang in the capital city. I recognize their marks. My cousin came from Beijing a few days ago and also used this carriage, but it is smaller than theirs."

……

Zhen Kebao was very reluctant, so he came over to greet Shuyao, and said to Shuyao, "Cousin, cousin, why are you here so late?"

Shuyao ignored him, but just held Shujie's hand tightly and moved closer to Shujie. She was still a child, and she just followed her elder brother.Shuwen responded angrily: "We got up early in the morning, why is it late? If it wasn't for my elder brother urging me to get up, I would still want to sleep." After finishing speaking, he covered his mouth with his little hand and yawned. It makes people feel extremely cute and distressing, and no one will find it unreasonable.Therefore, children who are beautiful and cute often have a great advantage.

"..." Zhen Kebao was so choked up, but he couldn't be serious with a child in public, "Chunyue, take the young master and the young lady to the lobby room."

A maidservant in a red coat and green trousers came over in response, "Young Master, Cousin, this way please."

In addition, a few maidservants in red coats and green trousers led other guests to walk with them.A lady suddenly thought of something: "Master Biao, Biao girl? There is only one aunt in Zhen's house. Could they be the three children that the Empress Dowager just rewarded? I heard that the Empress Dowager even sent a personal nun to Yulin Town to pay homage to Zhen. Where's my aunt?" It was because of this that their family accepted the post to attend the birthday banquet.

When the others heard this, they couldn't help looking at Shuyao and the other three.

Some people sympathized: "Such a small child, who grows so well, has become an orphan, how pitiful!"

Some people envy: "Poor? They have many powerful relatives and friends in Beijing, and now they are covered by the empress dowager. Didn't you see the clothes on them? They look sober and clean, they are all good things, not for ordinary people to use." This person has an uncle who is also a third-rank Dayuan in the capital. She just came back from a short stay with relatives in Beijing a few years ago, and her face is full of vanity of "well-informed and well-informed".

When they walked to the hall of the main courtyard, the maid at the door announced: "The young master and cousin of the Xia family have arrived." An eager and slightly hoarse voice came from inside: "My poor grandson and granddaughter, my grandmother wants to kill you, hurry up and take me with you!" Come in and let grandma take a good look at it!"

It was Mrs. Deng who went to Yulin to deliver the post to greet her last time. She stretched out her hands and wanted to hold the hands of Shuyao sister and brother.

Shuyao and Shuwen held Shujie's hand tightly and did not let go.

Mrs. Deng shyly withdrew her hand: "Master Cousin, Miss Cousin, the old lady is looking forward to you, hurry up, hurry up and talk to your grandmother."

Shuyao and the others ignored her, they just followed Shujie forward steadily.

On the main seat in the hall sat an old lady in her 50s, dressed in a dark red dress embroidered with blessings in gold and fine patterns, with two flowers made of red silk wrapped with gold thread on her half-white bun. Silk flowers, a jasper hairpin inlaid with round pearls.

The old lady Zhen didn't look like a benevolent type, so she deliberately put on a face of "kindness" and "sympathy" at this moment.It looks ridiculous and nondescript.Shuyao curled her lips secretly, in fact, she was putting on the so-called "dignity and solemnity" in normal times, and she looked more comfortable and normal.

Of course, Shuyao shouldn't "know" this grandmother yet, she must be the same as Shuwen.Write the strangeness and guesswork on your face.

The old lady Zhen, who was in the main seat, also looked at the three noble-looking children walking towards it under the cover of a "loving" smile.Where did they get the money to buy such a rich cloak?Was it the 2000 taels of silver that was stolen from her son Zhen Dafu?Or was it a gift from that golden tongue in Beijing?Hmph, thinking of all the complaints from her son, as well as the rumored large box of silver and a large box of precious medicinal materials that Shuyao dropped, the old lady was so angry that her heart and lungs ached.

Although the old lady Zhen came from an ordinary small family, since her brother made military achievements and became a general, she has always imitated the posture of an official wife.After the brother-in-law's family was dispatched to the Northwest.She was also depressed as if she was knocked out of the mud all at once.Fortunately, the elder sister-in-law gave her a large dowry in order to let her take in the young daughter.Let her continue to enjoy the spectrum of the rich lady.

It's a pity that not long after her husband was cheated, and his sister-in-law's dowry was wiped out, and their family became a small family again, until they sold Zhen Zirou to Murong's family to celebrate their happiness, and used the money to open a restaurant.At that time, there were no high-end restaurants in Daming Fucheng, and they were the first, and they were under the brand name of Murong's in-laws.On the contrary, he quickly made money and made a fortune.

With more and more high-end restaurants opening in Fucheng, Zhen's delicious restaurant is no match for others in terms of dishes, decoration style, service, and background.The business was getting worse and worse, so we had to make decisions based on the price of ingredients, and as a result, the food poisoning incident occurred.Originally, they thought that Meimeilou was doomed, but they didn't expect the Murong family to be willing to help, and even revealed to them that Xia Linxuan had received a "huge reward", but they only put forward their conditions.

However, the old lady and her son, Zhen Dafu, knew very well that Zhen Zirou was not easy to fool. Since leaving the Murong Mansion in the capital city and returning to Yulin County with Xia Linxuan, Zhen Zirou had never returned to the Zhen Mansion.

At this moment, Mrs. Lin said that her younger brother Lin Dayong and Zhen Zirou's maid, Cuizhu, were dating. Cuizhu never dared to let Zhen Zirou know, saying that Zhen Zirou was very disgusted with Lin and her natal family.Cuizhu suspects that she is pregnant, and is forcing Lin's younger brother to come to ask for marriage and redeem her body.

God help the Zhen family too!

In the eyes of Mrs. Zhen, if she hadn't taken in Zhen Zirou, the newborn child would have lost her life in the wilderness of the Northwest. It was the Zhen family who raised her and allowed her to survive. This life belonged to the Zhen family. , it belonged to her old lady Zhen, but she didn't know how to repay it, damn it!I can't blame her!

Everything seems to be going well...

Yinzi, the care of Murong Mansion and Empress Li, the future of the grandson, the prosperity of the Zhen family, maybe the grandson can really give her a taste of the old lady of the official family...

All beautiful dreams are waving to her...

Unexpectedly, at the juncture of the final harvest, but...

Old lady Zhen looked at the three of Shujie with complicated eyes. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
