Chapter 325 – Chest
As the Empress Dowager, being able to think about this unmarried daughter-in-law, sending someone personal over is already considered good. And she is simply with their own side of the people – in the usual family, perhaps also let people wonder whether this will be in the name of favor in the name of the reality of surveillance, but the Zhao family of people on Zhao Su and the palace of the mother and son to get along with the situation to understand, know that this will not be to monitor, but genuinely maintain her decency, and how will not be moved by it?
Especially today was the day they were hosting the Weiyuan Marquis siblings, the Empress Dowager must have known about the talk of the people in the city, and was clearly trying to give the Zhao family a long face!
After urging Zhao Su, she also bowed to the ground.
Gao Shu helped them up, “The people have been delivered, I won’t stay much longer, the two of you quickly prepare to welcome the guests.”
Zhao Su sent away Gao Shu, and then looked at the two Sun Pang in front of the two still smiling faintly sat on the baggage, had to say first: “The two of you first go with me to the leaning cloud courtyard, allow my fourth aunt to give you two to vacate a courtyard.”
Sister Sun still smiled and said, “Girl don’t have to bother, wherever the maids live, we will live.”
“How can …… that be?”
“This is what the Empress Dowager explained, saying that we are not here to put on airs and graces, we are here to share the girl’s worries, so we don’t dare to talk about it. Moreover, I look at the house of the subordinate dress, and talk temperament are very good, can see that the wives of the vegetarian governance is very good, that is, the maids live in the place, certainly will not.”
This is true, the Zhao brothers are diligent and down-to-earth people, the Marquis of Qingyun earned the merit is very valuable, several wives married are not particularly high family, but the character of the extreme positive, insights are also very rich, the back of the house governance has always been very mindful of, in addition to that year did not intervene to prevent Auntie Ning to live down to become a point of the sisters-in-law do not want to mention the rest of the word is not yet anything to let people say.
Xing can see that these two are careful people, also no more nonsense, then let people pass the old fourth family personally lead the way, leading them to the residence.
The palace can send people, Xing is really relieved, in addition to long decent, the same rules and etiquette do not have to worry about her. Although Su Sis Er is not so bad, but in the rules or some spontaneous, a bad, but also easy to let people catch words. In the future, by these two arrangements, it is natural that there will not be negligence.
Since then, Zhao Su house will be accompanied by the sisters, not to mention, this side of the people just dispersed, in front of the said Cheng Lang couple with a pair of daughters, accompanied by HeZhong came – He old lady for many years do not go out to walk, this is not a surprise. As soon as they met, Cheng Lang made a silent bow to Zhao Su, who knew that he was doing it for the sake of Cheng Zhuyun’s affairs, and it was inconvenient for him to thank her in front of outsiders, so he also returned the bow.
Mrs. Cheng cordially took her hand, “Today’s outfit is really nice. It’s very atmospheric and dignified.”
Zhao Su smiled and thanked her, welcoming them as they went to sit in the garden. Zhao Ha and Third Mistress Huang were already here preparing tea, and when they heard the rumor, they welcomed them to the door. Once they met, they greeted each other cordially. At this moment, there was a report that the car of the Marquis of Wei Yuan was arriving, so Zhao Su and Yao welcomed them to the front yard.
On the way, Xing Clan complained, “It would be nice if your father married someone back soon, look at how tired my little feet are.”
When they arrive at the hanging flower gate, the two sisters Sun Pang have already changed their clothes and are waiting here, and when they see Zhao Su, they both welcome her and stand behind her.
Huo Xiu and Duan Shu rode on horseback, Huo Mingyu rode in the carriage, and Marquis Qingyun was already in the front yard, so when they dismounted, both sides warmly exchanged pleasantries.
Huo Mingyu has long seen Zhao Su in the carriage window, today she is wearing a high bun, generously dressed, and looks a bit more noble than last time. After she got off the ground, two familiar faces behind Zhao Su immediately attracted her attention.
The palace was her second home, where were the people in Ci Ning Palace that she didn’t recognize? Sister Sun had assisted in the Empress Dowager’s post-canonization ceremony and was very familiar with the etiquette of the various divisions, while Sister Pang excelled in dress and makeup and was responsible for the dress code for many of the Empress Dowager’s palace banquets. How did these two people …… come out with Zhao Su to welcome the guests?
Huo Mingyu paused for a moment, but Huo Xiu also saw them and came over, “Sister Sun, Sister Pang is also here.”
The two of them, Sun and Pang, salute, “Back to the Marquis, the slave girl has been ordered by the Empress Dowager to come and serve Miss Su.”
Huo Xiu jowls and looks at Zhao Su, also arching his hand.
Zhao Su looked at the man in front of her, but she couldn’t help but feel a pang of fear and trembling ……
“Sister Su, why don’t you reply?”
Xing gently tugged on her sleeve from the side.
Zhao Su returned to her senses and tried her best to suppress the sudden emotions, blessing her body and saying, “Greetings, Marquis.” She also turns to Huo Mingyu, “County princess.”
Zhao Su’s hint of dissimilarity falls into Huo Mingyu’s eyes, but her heart is also tossing and turning, Empress Lu has never favored a person so much, when she sent Yu Qingping to her to protect her closely, this was already an exception, and now she has sent someone directly to Zhao Su – even if she is the Empress, the person sent should have been chosen by the Ministry of Rites from the Sixth Bureau. –Now, isn’t this a great honor?
Huo Mingyu in the last face of the emperor personally under the banishment order, and have not been how, now see Zhao Su behind the two Palace Sisters, but suddenly under the heart of some empty.
She bowed her head and returned the salute, greeting the sisters as they called her, “Miss Su.”
Zhao Su made a gesture of invitation, “No more standing, let’s eat tea inside.”
A group of people then meandering forward, during the period around the exquisite construction of the marquis house and the harmony of the extended family has a talk.
Entered the door, divided into male and female compartments first in the main hall to eat tea, all the etiquette, and then the atmosphere gradually relaxed, only to carry each other to the garden.
Cheng Zhuyun sees that Huo Mingyu doesn’t talk much, after entering the garden, when Zhao Ha and the others came forward to greet her, she quietly said with Zhao Su: “Sheriff Master looks a bit reticent, I don’t know if it’s convenient to open her mouth in a while.”
Zhao Su also feels that Huo Mingyu looks more silent today than last time, to be more precise, it was after seeing the two sisters that her demeanor changed, why exactly? She doesn’t have time to guess blindly for a moment.
She is still in the midst of the shock that Huo Xiu has brought to her at the moment, the Weiyuan Marquis who has been praised by the world is clearly a good son and son with both virtue and talent, but when she saw him earlier, her entire being shook violently, as if she had been touched by something, and there were countless shadows floating in her mind-
It was also strange, why did she have such a strange reaction when she saw both of them, brother and sister? Thinking about it again, when she was in Tongzhou, when she heard that the person who said she was going to meet the Weiyuan Marquis was nothing more than a Duan Shuo, she had also had the inexplicable feeling that she and this Weiyuan Marquis were clashing somewhere or not?
“Your family’s atmosphere is really good, so many people, so lively, I think usually no matter what you do, everyone is in agreement and peaceful.”
While Zhao Su is lost in thought, this side of Huo Mingyu looks at everyone sitting around and sighs.
