appreciate
Song Shuqi blurted out: "arranged by the second cousin?"
"Did jin'er mention it to you?" Shangguan Mingzhu was a little surprised.
"Not at all." Song Shuqi quickly retorted, blinked, and said: "I just guess. My father said it was arranged for my elder brother, but I haven't heard from him for so long. I think it must be my second cousin."
Shangguan Mingzhu nodded slightly: "yes, your elder brother is also entrusted with your blessing, otherwise how can jin'er help him? I only hope that he will lead you. "
Song Shuqi's lips were slightly raised, smiling but not speaking.
Shangguan Mingzhu didn't say any more. Instead, she fell into deep meditation. It seems that she needs to arrange it again.
At noon, shangguanjin came to see her. She also brought some good health food
Make up porridge.
Shangguan Mingzhu nodded happily: "jin'er has a heart."
Shangguanjin put down the dish, his mouth is sweet, especially can speak, shangguanmingzhu coax smile, and said: "listen to the wind, please master song come over to eat."
"Good boy, it's hard for you to think so much about Qi'er." Shangguan Mingzhu knows that his courtesy to song Zhengsheng is only for his daughter's sake.
But Shangguan brocade said with a smile: "I should be grateful to my aunt. I am very satisfied that you can agree to marry Qi'er to me."
"It's also your good performance. I look after her. If you don't care for her, how can I promise?" The more Shangguan Mingzhu looks at him, the more satisfied he is.
"My aunt said so." Shangguan jinhou had the cheek to answer.
Shangguan Mingzhu was dumbfounded and then said, "there's something about Hao'er, too
Thanks to you. "
Shangguanjin said with a smile: "aunt, you don't have to be polite with me. For the sake of Qi'er, these are nothing."
The smile on Shangguan Mingzhu's face became deeper and deeper. He turned his head and said, "go to the yard of the eldest young master and the eldest young lady and ask them to come for lunch."
"Yes." The servant girl went away.
A moment later, song Zhengsheng arrived first.
If Shangguan brocade wants to please a person, the effect is absolutely immediate, and soon there will be laughter in the room.
Song Shuqi heard it at the door and looked at the elder brother beside her: "it seems that he and his parents get along very happily."
"It's the best." Song Shuhao gave a low smile: "he is willing to be filial in front of his parents, which further shows that he cares about you. Only when you get married can you have a good life."
Song Shuqi was a little shy: "big brother!"
She stamped her foot and ran into the house.
"Father, mother." She was standing there crisply.
Shangguan Mingzhu waved: "Qi'er, come here."
Song Shuqi sat next to her, and now Song Shuhao came in, and said in a warm voice, "I've seen my father, my mother."
"Come and sit down." Song Zhengsheng is always kind and proud of his son. His son is rich and polite. At the dinner table, the whole family enjoyed themselves.
Shangguan brocade's eyes always stay on Song Shuqi. Even if he talks to others, Yu Guang can't leave her. When he sees which dish she has eaten, he notes it carefully.
Song Shuqi occasionally looks up and inevitably bumps into his eyes. If they are alone, they don't think so, but they are a little shy at the dinner table.
Shangguan Mingzhu saw this scene in her eyes. She ate little. She put down her chopsticks and rubbed the corner of her mouth with a handkerchief: "Hao'er will go to Minjiang Academy in a few days. Jin'er has already arranged it for you."
After song Shuhao was surprised, he immediately stood up and raised his glass, showing his gratitude: "thank you for your clever arrangement. I'll give you a toast to show my gratitude."
Shangguan brocade gives face very much and drinks it all in one gulp.
Although song Zhengsheng felt a little embarrassed, after all, he did not succeed after so long,
More is happy, can't help smiling: "Jin son is really intentional."
Shangguan brocade modest way: "I also do a little bit of effort."
Song Shuhao looks at his sister sitting next to him. He is clear in his heart why he is so helpful.
"Thank you very much, Qi'er," he whispered
Song Shuqi winked at him: "why thank me? I didn't arrange it for you. I won't take credit for it. "
She's so cute, but she's not greedy. Song Shuhao has a deeper smile“
In a word, big brother has it in mind. "
Song Zhengsheng was really happy. After eating, he sat down for a long time before he left. Before he left, he called song Shuhao away, saying that he had something to tell him.
Although song Shuhao still wants to sit for a while, he doesn't want to stay much.
After father and son left, Shangguan Mingzhu suddenly sighed: "jin'er, Qi'er, I have something to ask your opinion."
"Mother said it."
"The queen is going to give a banquet in the palace." Shangguan Mingzhu road.
"Another banquet?" Song Shuqi made no secret of her surprise. She turned her lips and said, "since the banquet is held, we can only go."
Shangguanjin pondered a little, then wanted to understand the worry in her mother's heart: "aunt is hesitating. Do you want to take her second cousin?"
This is said to the heart of the mother, she rubbed the forehead, tone is full of fatigue: "you know her temperament, last time let her go what consequences?"
Song Shuqi frowned slightly: "this is really a problem."
Shangguan Mingzhu has nothing to hide in front of her two. She will be worried
Worry full number say: "with her that temperament, if cause trouble, I'm afraid will implicate Qi son."
Song Shuqi couldn't bear to be so upset: "mother, you don't have to think so much. The queen loves me very much. If something goes wrong, I believe the empress will help."
"What Qi'er said is true." Shangguanjin also comforted: "as far as I know, the queen is a woman who has a clear sense of gratitude and resentment. She will never be angry with her cousin because of her mistakes."“ So you mean, take her? "
Song Shuqi said with a smile: "mother, leave this matter to me. If she wants to find a way
Come on, just let her come to me. You are not all well. Don't worry about these things
Shangguan Mingzhu knew that she had an idea and said, "well, I have no mind to deal with her."
"Is mother sick?" Song Shuqi worried.
Shangguan Mingzhu was silent for two seconds, and said slowly: "the Song government has sent a post of worship to our government."
"Why did the Song government suddenly come?" But song Shuqi knew that the people in the Song Dynasty had never been close to them. After all, they were the capital family, and the relationship between them was very complicated.
In particular, the Mo family, the old prince of the Song Dynasty, was old-fashioned, most disciplined, and always on airs.
She has seen it several times in her previous life. It's really hard to get along with.
"It's the post sent by Mrs. mo."
As soon as Shangguan Mingzhu said this, song Shuqi couldn't help sighing: "if it's really her, doesn't old lady Mo always look down on us?"
"It's mostly because you want to marry jin'er. That's why you want to come." Shangguan Mingzhu doesn't like this family either, but it's hard to refuse.
Shangguanjin didn't make a sound until now. She said, "aunt, you don't have to be so tangled. This is shangguanfu. They are guests when they come. We'll treat them."
Song Shuqi echoed: "mother, just relax."
"But are the people in the Song Dynasty easy to get along with?" Shangguan Pearl
Worry is nothing more than the fear that it will make Mo dissatisfied, and it will not be good for her daughter in the future.
Shangguanjin raised her eyebrows and said with a smile, "aunt, don't worry. I'm the one Qi'er wants to marry. Naturally, I'll protect her. Even Mo's can't do anything about her."
Shangguan Mingzhu is relieved to know that Qi'er will be able to rely on her in the future, and she can rest assured.
…
The next day.
Just after dinner, Shangguan Mingzhu was about to go out for a walk, so she heard the maid report: "madam, the second lady is coming with the second lady."
This can not go, she had to sit down again: "let them in."
Yu's family is resting, and song Shutong walks in slowly. Song Shutong graces her body
"Tong'er came to see her mother. Is she better?"
"Much better." Shangguan pearl has a light complexion.
Yu took the teacup from the servant girl and delivered it to her mother in person. She said in a soft voice, "since I was pregnant, I've been more careful. I've come to see you for such a long time. Won't my wife blame me?"
Shangguan Mingzhu glanced at the teacup: "no way."
Yu's stomach has been bulging. She holds her waist and sits down. She seems to be very sincere: "it's me who's bad. I'll make amends for my wife here."
Shangguan Mingzhu said with a faint smile: "now you are the master's darling. How dare I ask you to come to see me? You are heavy. If anything happens, I can't afford it."
Yu's face slightly stiff, dry smile: "madam, this is to say where words."
She was a little embarrassed for a moment, but song Shutong was very clever and stepped forward
Holding the teacup, flattered: "mother said, I and mother parents should come to see you, you say so, it is called tonger heart panic."
Shangguan Mingzhu took the cup, but didn't drink it.
Song Shutong didn't care. She said to herself, "mother, you don't know. I've been at home recently. I'm in a hurry."
"Nothing to go out for a walk." Shangguan Mingzhu said slowly, "just don't make trouble."
"Mother, how could I get into trouble." Song Shutong very clever way: "just at home idle nothing, want to ask a favor with his mother, if you want to go out to a banquet, can you take Tong son?"
Shangguan Mingzhu finally understood why the mother and daughter suddenly came to the party and said quietly, "I know I'm not well, and I don't go to the party much on weekdays."
Song Shutong was a little upset: "but I heard that there is going to be a palace banquet in the palace. Mother must let her sister go, right? Let her take me there
Get up. "
"To take you?" Shangguan Mingzhu chuckles abruptly: "the people who go to the Palace Banquet are all famous women."
Song Shutong immediately heard that she said she was not qualified enough and said eagerly, "but the queen didn't stipulate that she had to have a legitimate daughter, and last time
I went, too
Yu Shi said in a low voice: "madam, please agree. Otherwise, it's boring for the child to stay at home all day."
"This..." Shangguan Mingzhu hesitated for a moment, and then said: "in fact, I really can't decide this. After all, it's Qi'er who wants to go. Do you want to take you or not
You have to ask her. "
