Reborn like a flower

Chapter 128 Jumping into the Pit (1)
The uncle just came down from the yamen, and the wife didn't go there either.How many pairs of eyes were staring at the whole courtyard, why did grandma just let the uncle do what she wanted without knowing how to persuade him.

"Golden branch."

"Hey, here we come."

Jin Zhi spread out the new quilt and quilt quickly, and handed the replaced quilt to the little maids on the side, and asked them to wash it.I stepped behind the screen a few steps.

"Who is serving the third master?"

Jin Zhi waved his hand, and Xi Qiu retreated.

"Grandpa is not used to being waited on by others, grandma forgot." Jin Zhi took the cloth handkerchief in his hand and carefully scrubbed Zhang Ningxin's smooth skin, wanting to persuade her, but because of her previous relationship with Zhang Ningxin After all, she is different from Fengzhi, so she would never say something that is not necessary.But if the wife gets angry with grandma, it's her servants who are unlucky, sighed, and said softly: "Grandma, the master hasn't gone to the wife's place yet."

Zhang Ningxin's faintly smiling face had a tinge of hostility, Jin Zhi knew that he was trying to provoke her, so he didn't dare to say any more, and began to serve her carefully.

"Where's Fengzhi? It takes so long to send someone off?" Zhang Ningxin said coldly.

Feng Zhi's voice sounded from outside the screen, "Grandma, the servant is back."

"Grandma, this servant is going to call for someone to clean up the water on the master's side." Jin Zhi said softly.

Zhang Ningxin waved her hand, and Jin Zhi retreated.

Feng Zhi rolled up her sleeves, picked up the cloth kerchief in the bucket, and scrubbed Zhang Ningxin. Several large stoves burning in the corner of the room made her sweat profusely. Feng Zhi couldn't help but startled, and said softly : "A few days ago, didn't my wife complain that grandma, you used too much charcoal? Why..."

"I bought it with my own money, and I don't use the things in the office. She has to look at it if she is not happy." Zhang Ningxin said angrily, "Are you all my maids or hers? Put me on the head and hold her."

Fengzhi knew that it was Jin Zhi who said something that made Zhang Ningxin unhappy.

At the moment, I didn't dare to say anything, I just wholeheartedly waited for Zhang Ningxin to freshen up.

After tidying up, putting on clean clothes, and drying the hair on my head, it was half past one hour.

Zhou Ziyuan and Zhang Ningxin took their maids to Mrs. Yu's house to say hello, but just in time, the eldest grandmother Liu was also in the house, and Liu was making Yu laugh out loud, two and a half years old Lu'er was dressed like a cotton ball and ran around the house.After a while, he handed an orange to Mrs Yu, and after a while, he beat Mrs Yu's feet in a dignified way with a fat and stingy air.

"Oh, my little darling, you really want to feel sorry for grandma." Yu held Lu'er in her arms, kissed "ba da", and repeatedly took off the suet jade bracelet in her hand and stuffed it into the In Lu'er's hand, "Grandmother rewarded you, take it quickly."

Zhang Ningxin, who had just entered the door, took this scene into her eyes and curled her lips secretly.

"Third brother, the third younger brother and sister are here." After seeing Zhou Ziyuan and Zhang Ningxin, Liu quickly got up to greet them.

"No wonder mother loves sister-in-law. It turns out that sister-in-law spends all her time trying to make mother happy." Zhang Ningxin smiled and sat beside Mrs. Liu, looked at Mrs. Yu and said, "Mother, I haven't been this happy for a long time."

Mrs. Yu handed the Lu'er in her hand to the nanny who was waiting next to her, took a sip of tea from the kang, moistened her throat, then saw Zhang Ningxin smiled lightly, and said softly: "Wait for your second sister-in-law I will be even happier to give birth to a grandson for our Zhou family."

As soon as these words fell, not only Zhang Ningxin but also the smile on Liu's face froze.

Zhou Ziyuan smiled and said, "Why didn't I see my second brother?"

Yu Shi glanced at the gentle-looking son beside her. This son was the one she loved the most but also the one that worried her the most.Fortunately, he is promising.But this daughter-in-law is... Mrs. Yu teased Zhang Ningxin, who had pale eyes, and suppressed her unhappiness.

"Why did you come back so late today? Your second elder brother and second sister-in-law have been gone for half an hour."

Zhang Ningxin became more and more uncomfortable.She knew that as soon as Zhou Ziyuan came home, someone might report to Mrs. Yu, and even Mrs. Yu might have heard about the matter in the house of their husband and wife. Just embarrass her.But just like what Zhou Ziyuan said, there is nothing embarrassing about their serious couple.Thinking in this way, Zhang Ningxin put away her uncomfortable body, and Yi Xiao naturally greeted Yu Shi's glances from time to time.

"Oh, I have a lot of things to do today, so I came back after sleeping for a while." Zhou Ziyuan laughed.

"Mother heard that the emperor often asks you to discuss matters recently, but is it true?"

Zhou Ziyuan smiled and said: "It's not a matter of discussion, but sometimes the emperor can't make up his mind, so he will talk to us."

When Yu Shi heard this, the smile in his eyes became more intense.

"This is a good opportunity, you should seize it."

"I know." Zhou Ziyuan glanced at Zhang Ningxin on the side, and said softly: "Tomorrow, there will be a banquet at the Longping Hou's mansion, and Madam Longping wants Ning Xin to go back and have a good time."

This was the result of a discussion between the two when they were on the way, and he and Mrs. Yu proposed it.

Yu Shi smiled, looked at Zhou Ziyuan and said, "Are you afraid that I won't allow it, so you said it yourself?"

"Mother..." Zhou Ziyuan looked at Mrs. Yu slightly dissatisfied.

"Okay, let's go, let's go." Shi Yu waved his hand, "I'm tired too, you all go back."

"Yes, mother, then let's not disturb mother's rest." Zhang Ningxin stood up.

Zhou Ziyuan shook his head at Zhang Ningxin, but Zhang Ningxin had already given a blessing and was about to leave.Zhou Ziyuan had no choice but to retreat outside.

Mrs. Liu called the nanny, hugged Lu'er, and followed her out.

After walking a few steps, I heard a "clang" in the room.

Zhou Ziyuan paused, Zhang Ningxin smiled, "Let's go, maybe some servant is clumsy."

Mrs. Liu, who had walked far away from the corner, stopped at this moment, turned her head and glanced at the two of them, with a cold smile in her eyes.

The banquet held by the Longping Hou Mansion, although it was just a family banquet, was extremely grand and grand.Except for close relatives and friends, all the relatives and nobles of the princes and princes in Beijing came, and the house was full of famous families, which was not inferior to the Huanghuang Palace Banquet.

Zhang Ningxin and Zhou Ziyuan came to the waiting mansion early on. Zhou Ziyuan was invited by Zhang Guangsi to treat the male guests in the front yard, while Zhang Ningxin stayed in the backyard to entertain the female guests with Longpinghou's wife, Mrs. Lu.

The snow of a few days ago has been melted by the sunshine of these days, and the corners of the eaves and walls are dripping down from time to time. The houses and courtyards that have been washed by the snow water are more clean.Even those flowers and trees that have withered flowers and leaves seem to have a bit of bright beauty in the sun.

In a corner of Longpinghou Mansion, Xuanyuan Qi held a pen dipped in thick ink, with his sleeves slightly rolled up, and in the next moment, on the white rice paper was the body of an old plum tree with gnarled branches.Leaning slightly, he threw away the pen in his hand, took another pen dipped in red, and sketched a few strokes at random. In an instant, a picture of plum blossoms in full bloom appeared on the paper.
