Chapter 169
Accompanying the capital to the capital is only a two-day journey, but the number of times Wang Zhengshi returns to her natal family in a year is very few.

Since she was married, she would only come back here except during the holidays or when her natal family had something urgent to do, or when the Wang family needed urgent help from the Marquis. The mistress of the Gu family.

Wang Wenyuan won the exam this time, and Wang Zheng and her husband were naturally extremely happy. The couple wanted to rush to the capital to visit their son, but relatives, friends and old friends came to congratulate them one after another. As soon as he left, he wanted to have a banquet to entertain relatives and friends, so he had to write a book for his son, and let Wang Zhengshi come over first with it.

Mrs. Zheng also missed her second daughter very much. After taking a nap, she drank a cup of warm water and woke up early. When she heard the report that the second aunt had entered the Chuhuamen, she immediately smiled happily, and stretched out her hand to Yiqing, saying:
"Quick, help me out quickly, let's go out for a walk too, and meet your second aunt by the way!"

When Fang Zheng saw this, she was very upset: her mother is always like this, she has been partial to the second girl since she was a child, and when she came back to the Hou's mansion from outside, her mother would never be so anxious to welcome her out like she is now!
Mrs. Fang Zheng deliberately walked over to stop Yiqing, took Mrs. Zheng's hand, and said seriously: "Mother, my sister has just arrived, and what she wants to see most at this time is her promising eldest son Wen Yuan! Mother and son Can’t be too happy! Wen Yuan must have accompanied his mother into the inner courtyard. The two of them walked and talked all the way, happily. Disappointment! Besides, there is no reason for parents to greet their children! You are unwell and coughing, and your sister should have come to kowtow to you, but instead asked you to greet her. She can't bear it. This is her blessing! "

After hearing what her eldest daughter said, Mrs. Zheng's smile slowly faded, and she pulled her hand down, her good mood was beaten in half, and she said in a weak voice: "Then, let's just sit here and wait for her to come! "

Yiqing was speechless, the old man was used to being pampered and tired, she tried to persuade the old lady for a long time but failed to persuade the old lady to go out for a walk, and suddenly she wanted to go out for activities, but Fang Zheng's words dampened her interest!I really can't figure out, is this aunt really the old lady's own?I don't know what I'm thinking, and it's obviously not about my mother's health!
After persuading her mother not to go out to meet her younger sister, Fang Zheng smiled with satisfaction: "That's exactly how it should be, mother, come and drink?"

Mrs. Zheng pushed away the gaiwan and shook her head: "I won't drink anymore, my mouth is very pale!"

Fang Zheng cast a sideways glance at where Yiqing was standing, and said, "Wouldn't it be nice to drink plain water all day long? Mother, how about we make a good cup of tea?"

"Well, let's go soak. Your sister will come later, and you can drink something to quench your thirst!"

Fang Zheng raised her face, stared at Chunnuan who was standing behind the old lady, and said, "Don't you boil water to make tea? If you don't drink the good tea, what do you keep for it? Even if it breaks, it won't be your turn." It’s up to you slaves to drink! I think someone asked you to coax the old lady to drink this bland white water every day, so as to save the tea leaves so that you can give them away? Thank you for doing it.”

Chunnuan was slandered by Fang Zhengshi for no reason, and she was stunned for a moment, her eyes turned into rabbit eyes, and tears almost flowed out.

As the eldest girl in front of Mrs. Zheng, she usually serves her closely and is considerate and meticulous. The old lady treats her and Qiu Ju like a granddaughter. Except for her status as a servant, her dignity and treatment in the Hou Mansion can be said She is the first maidservant. The old lady is always considerate, gentle and amiable when talking to her, and never reprimands her in front of other servants. Even if she really did something wrong, she just Let her change it... But now, what happened to the aunt?To scold her for no reason, and in front of so many people, is she really that unbearable person?
Mrs. Zheng also heard Fang Zheng's words, her brows frowned, and she was about to say a few words to her, but at this moment, another woman came to report the news of the second aunt, saying that she was almost at the gate of the Anhe Hall. The old lady nodded with a smile while listening, and told people to remember to send Wang Wenhui over.

Here Fang Zheng didn't allow Chunnuan to argue, and urged: "What are you doing here? Why don't you go down soon?"

Chunnuan was crying, but when she turned around, she touched a soft body. Yiqing supported her, smiled and whispered softly: "It's my idea to let the old lady drink boiled water. Auntie wrongly blamed Chunnuan. Yes! Chunnuan has suffered for me and I don’t know the difference. It’s really hard for you! Good boy, don’t be sad. Everything is not going well for my aunt today. You always have to find someone to get rid of the anger. If you fall down, you'll be done crying, don't take it to heart! Go ahead, just make a pot of tea that Ergu's wife likes to drink, the old lady is taking medicine now, she doesn't drink tea!"

After hearing this, Chun Nuan's pale face eased, she bowed her head and gave a blessing to Yi Qing, said "The servant has gone down", and turned around to leave, Fang Zheng snorted and said:

"Good girl, don't forget that I chose you to enter Anhetang and sent you to the old lady! She told you to go and you just go, and you only saluted her, but you couldn't see me standing here? You looked very clever when you were young. , but the older the brain, the clumsier the brain, and learned to eat inside and outside! It seems that the female college is not allowed to stay. When I return to the old lady, it's time to let her out and make a match!"

Chunnuan's back froze, and Yiqing smiled softly: "Auntie, do you dare to say this in front of the old lady? There are only two caring people in front of the old lady, Chunnuan and Qiuju. They are not very old, only fifteen Six years old, it’s time to rely on them! How can the old lady be willing to let them go? Houye and I are also reluctant to let them go so early, and we still need them to accompany and serve the old lady! It must be full, and a good marriage will be matched! This It's what Master Hou and I thought, and the old lady also has the same idea!"

Chunnuan slowly relaxed her shoulders, wiped her eyes with a handkerchief, and walked away quickly.

The three of them had a conversation in the back corner, and they all lowered their voices deliberately so that others could not hear clearly. Yiqing smiled again, as if they were discussing something, but Mrs. Zheng was a little worried. Clear eyes, just about to get up and go to listen, but heard a commotion in the front hall, a woman shouted: "The second aunt is back!"

Then there was laughter mixed with the sound of hurried footsteps, and Wang Zhengshi laughed all the way and shouted: "Mother, mother! Your second daughter is back!"

Mrs. Zheng's eyes were red, and she stretched out her hands. Mrs. Zheng quickly supported her. Qiu Ju was on the other side. The old lady stood up slowly, took a few steps forward, and cursed with tears and smiles:
"Second girl, you're still making such a fuss, you'll be right back, what's the fuss about?"

Wang Zhengshi and his son Wang Wenyuan bypassed the wide, long and tall red sandalwood carved screen in the middle hall, and walked quickly to Mrs. Zheng. Mama Lin asked someone to prepare a mat. Wang Zhengshi pulled his son to kneel down and kowtowed. Said: "Mother, my daughter brought her grandson to greet you!"

Mrs. Zheng nodded again and again: "Get up, get up quickly!"

Mrs. Wang Zhengshi and Wang Wenyuan stood up and walked to Mrs. Zheng to support her. Mrs. Zheng and Qiu Ju quietly retreated. Mrs. Zheng took her grandson with one hand and her daughter with the other and walked to Luohan’s bed and sat down, smiling. You have to be happy: "Second girl, when you sent Wen Yuan back to the Hou Mansion, I asked me to look after you and find an academy for him to study...Look, is your son promising now?"

"That is, without mother's careful teaching and Yan'er's care, how could Yuan'er be where he is today?"

Wang Zhengshi also laughed from ear to ear, and took the old lady's hand and said: "It's a pity that there are too many people who came to congratulate the house. Your second son-in-law has to give a banquet to reward relatives and friends, and he can't get away. He asked his daughter to represent him. Say hello to mother! Wait a few days for Yuan'er to finish the palace examination, and he will definitely come to kowtow to mother!"

Mrs. Zheng said with a smile: "Good! Good! We are all waiting for the good news from Yuan'er, Yuan'er, you can't relax yet, you have to work harder!"

"Hey!" Wang Wenyuan agreed, and for some unknown reason, he quickly turned his head and glanced at Yiqing who was standing behind the old lady.

Yiqing looked back at him silently, not wanting to complain about the clothes taste of this young master Wang Biao: If the pink eggplant color last time was normal, then today's pink and green silk shirt embroidered with small clusters of flowers completely left Yiqing speechless up.

Fang Zheng stepped forward with a smile on his face, and warmly held hands with his younger sister to ask for warmth. The two sisters did not look alike, but there was one thing that was surprisingly similar. They were both very arrogant and defiant. Wang Zheng stood beside the old lady. , the mother and daughter were talking, her eyes clearly met Yiqing's, but she put away her smile and turned her face away, assuming the posture of an aunt, waiting for Yiqing to take the initiative to go up and say hello!

Yiqing would not follow her wishes, she just stood there quietly, with a faint smile on her face, her eyes calm and cold, as if the second aunt who came from afar was an insignificant guest, She has nothing to do with it!

Wang Zhengshi couldn't bear it any longer, looked at Yiqing and asked, "Mother, is this girl Yan's daughter-in-law? I don't even say hello when I see her. The changes are quite big, and I don't even dare to misrecognize her!"

Mrs. Zheng smiled and said: "Isn't it just her? Has it changed? I don't think it is when I am in front of me every day! It has changed. Once you enter our house, you should become a member of our family! Qing'er comes Ah, is it possible that you don’t recognize Second Aunt either?”

Yiqing stepped forward to salute Wang Zhengshi and said with a smile, "How dare you not recognize our second aunt? I have long wanted to come up to say goodbye to the second aunt, but I was afraid of disturbing the two aunts. Also, my mother was not able to talk to my second aunt. According to the rules, it is the second aunt who greets my mother first, and the younger generation dare not come out in front of the elders! Now it is my turn. Moon, it's better to be closer to the old lady!"

She said this slowly, every word and every word, everyone heard very clearly, Mrs. Zheng hurriedly pushed Wang Zhengshi and said: "By the way, your sister-in-law is here, and your sisters are patronizing to talk, and you have nothing to do with it." Your sister-in-law greets you! Go!"

Wang Zheng's body was visibly stiff, and he turned his head, as if he had just found Mrs. Zheng sitting on the side, with a smile on his face, he shouted joyfully:
"Sister-in-law! Sister-in-law, you are here! I thought you hadn't come here yet, and I was planning to take you far away to see you later!"

Yiqing rolled her eyes: She is actually a superb actress!This Wang Zhengshi seems to be even better at pretending than Fang Zhengshi!
