Red makeup against the world

Chapter 729
After leaving the new house, Sun Zhitao kept a gentle smile, but he didn't go towards the front yard.

Walking a few steps and turning the corner, Mo Zhu was waiting for him there, when he saw him coming, he crossed his hands and saluted: "Master!"

Sun Zhitao hummed and asked, "Bring it here."

Mo Zhu presented the roster in his hand, it was a thick volume of gift lists for all the guests who came to Sun's house today to congratulate them.

Sun Zhitao took the roster and read it at a glance.Obviously, he was not interested in the gifts from the guests, but was looking for a certain person.

In less than a cup of tea, he finished reading the roster.During this period, his finger only stayed on one line of small characters once.

That was Mrs. Zhu, the eldest wife of the Xu family, who came to congratulate her. The gifts she sent were neither light nor heavy, just the weight of fellowship.

He looked down at the ground, cursing himself inwardly.

What am I looking forward to?Could it be that she still fantasizes that she will congratulate herself?Speaking of which, since the marriage between Xu and Sun disappeared, she has nothing to do with her.

Whether she is the eldest lady of the Xu family or the second young lady of Duke Zhong's mansion, it is too late for her to avoid suspicion, so how could she appear here?
What's more, apart from not marrying Xu Wanzhen to him, the Xu family helped him a lot, and what he owed would never be repaid.

Sun Zhitao suddenly raised his head, took two steps to the middle of the courtyard, and took a deep breath against the increasingly cold autumn wind.

wake up!Even if you can't forget it, once you miss this life, you will have no fate.

It's better to watch her silently and from a distance, as long as she lives well, then her wish is enough!In the future, whether it is the Xu family or her, as long as I can help, I will definitely help.

It's just that the current self is too weak.The number one scholar in the new department is just a mere court official at this time, how can he help?

Only when you are strong can you have enough strength to help.

Sun Zhitao opened his arms to welcome the cold wind, and silently made an oath in his heart.Under the festive decorations all over the courtyard, his figure is so lonely and bleak.

Mo Zhu looked at his young master distressedly, and did not step forward.No one understood the pain and helplessness in the young master's heart better than him, and all he could do was wait silently.

……

The marriage between Liu and Sun is a good story in the capital.

Talking about this marriage in the streets and alleys, even this cold autumn was tinged with a tinge of joy.

With Qingluo here, Xu Wanzhen also knew the details of this happy event in Zhiyuan Residence.Putting down the news sent by her sister-in-law Zhu, she smiled slightly.

Her natal family was still worried about her reaction, after all, Sun Zhitao was engaged to her since she was a child.

But for Xu Wanzhen, the childhood friendship with Sun Zhitao only exists in memory, not personal experience.She didn't really mind, but the kindness was naturally appreciated.

She also wished that gentle and jade-like man a peaceful and beautiful life with Miss Liu's family.

He picked up another letter, which said that he had arrived in Suzhou, received Han Yi's mother, and was about to leave for the capital.

"Qingluo, let Caisi come over." Xu Wanzhen ordered.

Showing the letter to Caisi, Xu Wanzhen smiled and said, "According to this pace, we can arrive at the beginning of next month at most. The house, Madam Zheng, is already optimistic about buying it, and I will wait for Han Yiniang to kiss her."

No matter how calm Caisi was, she was still an unmarried girl, and she was always extremely embarrassed when talking about marriage.

"Young madam, it's fine for you to know these things, and you don't need to tell the servant girl specifically."

"How can I do that!" Xu Wanzhen joked, "If I don't tell you, you will inevitably worry about guessing."

A word hit Caisi's mind, and I saw her pretty face flying up into the red sky, and she bowed her head in silence.

"What do you say at home? Are you planning to marry from the academy or live far away?" Xu Wanzhen asked.

Cai Si said softly: "Brother said, since the servant girl is the young lady's maidservant, she should marry from Zhiyuan. Don't forget the young lady's kindness."

"The deed has already been cancelled, how can you return it to the maidservant?" Xu Wanzhen said: "When you get married, you will be the fifth-rank Duwei's wife."

Caisi smiled embarrassedly: "It's been so many years, I can't change it in a while."

At this time, Qingmai reported outside: "Young Madam, the post you sent, Mr. Ning and Miss Tu promised to come, but Princess Pingguo said that it is inconvenient to go out in the near future."

"The young lady of Changping Hou's Mansion and the third lady of An Guogong's mansion both accepted the post."

Xu Wanzhen has never had a good reunion with her old sisters since she married into this Duke Zhong's mansion.Thinking that it would be convenient to move around before winter arrived, so I invited my two cousins ​​and two righteous sisters to come over to get together.

It just so happens that a late chrysanthemum planted in the yard is in full bloom, and it is time to drink chrysanthemum wine and taste chrysanthemum feasts.As the master, she can also repay the friendship of the sisters all the time.

It's just that Tu Manzhen is inconvenient recently?
Xu Wanzhen thought for a moment, this sentence is worth considering.

According to how much Liu Qiran pampers her, is there any inconvenience for her?If you feel unwell, just say so, why bother to cover it up.

Madam Zheng stepped into the door, seeing her thinking hard, she smiled and said, "Young Madam, I don't see her often enough, so I couldn't figure it out for a while. I thought, Princess Pingguo's concubine should be pregnant, but the fetal image is still there." If you don’t sit still, don’t say anything, so as not to ruin the child’s luck.”

"Really?" Xu Wanzhen asked in surprise.

Counting the days, Tu Manzhen will get married half a year before her.She is a lucky one, she was pregnant only half a year ago, and she doesn't know what Liu Qiran's success looks like.

Madam Zheng smiled and said, "Nine out of ten."

"Then quickly open the storeroom and find some anti-abortion medicinal materials. Those hang silks are soft and suitable for making clothes for babies. Take one of each color, and we will go to Pingguo's mansion."

After Xu Wanzhen finished a series of orders, she asked, "Nurse, I wonder if it's wrong to visit her at this time?"

Seeing that she was so happy for Tu Manzhen, Madam Zheng smiled and said: "There is no rush for the gift, after all, there is no definite news. Young Madam can go and have a look first, it is not informed by the Duke of Pingguo, even if it is known that she is pregnant. "

Xu Wanzhen nodded repeatedly, and said with a smile: "It's still the mother who is thoughtful. Arrange the carriage quickly, and go out to the Pingguo Palace in the afternoon."

Mother Zheng agreed, and said: "Second Young Master, Young Madam has to be careful when going out. I think it's better for Young Madam to bring more guards."

"Okay! Caisi, go and make arrangements. You and Mulan will follow me out, Mei Xin will accompany six female guards, and the guards left by the husband in the outer courtyard will also follow."

In order not to cause trouble to Wu Zhengxiang who has been so busy recently, Xu Wan really doesn't mind bringing more people.Even if someone looked sideways, she didn't live for those people to watch.

Seeing that she had arranged everything properly, Madam Zheng felt relieved.

"Going out, madam, be careful." Madam Zheng urged.For some reason, she always felt uneasy.
