Chapter 33: In case of luck
Chapter 33 In case of good luck
Ten days later.
Three more days, it is the day when the palace holds a birthday banquet for the empress.
"If you really don't want to go, you don't need to accompany me. After all, you haven't really healed, and you won't blame anything if you want to come to the palace."
In Shizi’s courtyard, Cui, who had just finished sorting out his account books, said with Xu Mingyi, who was sitting beside him eating a snack.
The snack was bought and sent by Xu Mingshi, all Xu Mingyi liked in the past.
At this time, she swallowed the rose pastry in her mouth, took the kerchief that Akui handed over, wiped the corners of her mouth, and ate two sips of tea before she said: "Mother, I am almost getting better. These days are boring to recuperate at home for a long time. I have never been out for a walk, so my mother will let me go and join in the fun."
"I was thinking that you didn't like these occasions in the past." Cui's eyes were full of smiles: "Since you want to go, just go."
Xu Mingyi smiled and nodded.
She did not like these in the past because she was tired to deal with it, but now she can't just stay at home like this and wait for the nightmare to come.
There are many things she has to do. The first thing is to listen more, read more and think more, so that she can put more useful things in her mind, which is not so smart.
"Madam."
When the mother and daughter were talking, Qingying walked in from the outside, and she saluted: "Mrs. Xiangningbo and the others are here."
"So fast?" Cui Shi put down the tea cup in his hand.
She has only finished reconciling the accounts, and she hasn’t talked more with her daughter yet!
Qingying can't help being surprised.
Mrs. , there was still a time when Mrs. Xiang Ningbo and the others came quickly--
Xu Mingyi got up at the right time: "I just happened to be going to my second uncle's place, so I won't disturb my mother and be slapped."
"Then go quickly, when my mother wins the silver, I will buy you food later!"
Xu Mingyi responded.
As long as it's not ice powder--
She followed the Cui family out of the room, and after meeting with the Chinese women in the hall one by one, she left the courtyard.
The card table was quickly set up, and while the four people chatted, Mrs. Xiangning Bo looked at Cui and said, “I haven’t seen the girl in your house for a long time. Now it’s really more dignified and beautiful.”
"Then I won't look at whose girl it is." Cui Shi is not modest.
"In this way, the rumors outside must be true?" Mrs. Wen, the wife of the Book of Rites, threw a card out and said.
Cui gave her a look: "What rumors?"
"It's the rumors about King Shisun of Dingnan. It is said that the old General Xu rescued people back to Beijing to Chongxi for your girl. King Shisun of Dingnan concealed his identity and lived in your house for many days, because he was greedy for Xu. The girl was beautiful, and she did not hesitate to agree to Chongxi--but later her identity was revealed, and then was driven out by General Xu!"
Zhen Guogong Mansion is not compatible with Dingnan Wang Mansion, this is a well-known thing.
Leaving aside other things, if the two can get married, that would be a weird thing.
"What kind of messy statement is this?" Cui gave a laugh.
Although Zhaozhao’s beauty in her family is indeed likely to make the other person obsessed and fall, but Wu Shisun has never been fortunate enough to see Zhaozhao.
In the past ten days, she has been able to hear all kinds of rumors about the rescue of Wu Shisun from their town’s government office.
Because most of them have no influence on their towns and government offices, just listen to them as a joke.
It was not her Zhaozhao who was being laughed at anyway, but Wu Shisun, who was dangerously used to cheer, and is now very ‘greedy for beauty’ in the eyes of everyone.
But these things are just being used for chatting right now. There are many things in Beijing, and they will be left behind soon.
Xu Mingyi didn't pay much attention to these rumors.
She took Akui to Xu Yun's courtyard.
"Can the second uncle be here?"
"Back to the girl, the second master is in the study room now."
Xu Mingyi curled his lips and smiled.
Seeing that her second uncle has been very attentive to her affairs recently.
The door of the study was half-hidden, Akui stepped forward with a double tap, and then gently pushed it open.
Xu Mingyi walked in and saw drawing paper, pen, ink and other objects placed on the large bookcase, but after the bookcase, it was empty and no people were seen.
Searched in the study room for a moment, only to see that Xu Yun was sleeping soundly on a low couch next to the bookshelf.
"Second Uncle..."
Xu Ming intentionally walked over reluctantly and shook his arm gently.
"Why are you falling asleep again at this hour?"
According to the time when the second uncle usually wakes up, I am afraid that it is just a short time after getting up-this mansion is filled with sleeping grass. I am afraid that the person suffering from narcolepsy is another person, right?
"Zhao Zhao..."
Xu Yun reluctantly opened his eyes, glanced at her, and saw that he was going to sleep again.
Xu Mingyi hurriedly went to shake him again: "Second Uncle, you promised my painting, it's not finished yet——"
On weekdays, she doesn't bother him by herself, but the second uncle is so ignorant, which makes people feel very hopeless.
"Everything can't be done...I can't finish it today, just do it tomorrow." Xu Yun turned over, turned his back to her, and said vaguely: "In case of luck and death, You don't have to do it..."
"..." Xu Mingyi felt confused.
is over, her second uncle seems to be getting degenerate recently.
Looking at the half-drawn drawing paper on the book table, Xu Mingyi forcibly resisted the impulse to put two needles on his second uncle to make him sober, and sighed helplessly.
That's it, painting things like that can't be forced.
Whether she can deliver this birthday gift depends on fate.
Xu Mingyi stooped to pick up the thin blanket on the side, and half put it on Xu Yun's body, then took Akui out of the study.
As soon as the master and servant got down the stone steps, they saw Zhan Yunzhu with a small servant walking over.
"Zhao——" Zhan Yunzhu just uttered a word, then smiled quickly and changed his words: "Ms. Xu is also here."
Xu Mingyi smiled.
This kind of intimacy that seems to be revealed unintentionally is the easiest to convince people. This is really a person who counts every word and every word.
"Master Zhan came by accident. My second uncle fell asleep in the study."
Zhan Yunzhu heard the words and glanced at the study behind her, and said with a gentle smile: "It's okay, I have nothing to do, but yesterday I took some people out of the city to eat some game, and then sent some.
By the way, I also prepared a copy for you, but it was not good to send it directly to you-these days you are raising your body, and you can make up for it. "
Xu Mingyi looked at the hare and other things in the hands of the young man behind him, and whispered: "Brother Zhan’s kindness is accepted by my heart, but five days later it will be my grandmother’s death. It’s not convenient to see the meaty things in the house. These things, Brother Zhan. Take it back and enjoy it for yourself."
She heard from Doctor Qiu before that many game products should not be eaten indiscriminately. If luck is good, it is possible to eat people to death.
Zhan Yunzhu was startled when he heard it, and hurriedly said, "I was negligent... I forgot about such important things. Yongkang, take the things back soon."
Xiao Si should go out of the yard immediately.
What more does Zhan Yunzhu have to say, I have heard Xu Mingyi preach in front: "Master Zhan, I have something to do, so I will go back first."
The plainly dressed girl owed him a little, and left with her maid.
Zhan Yunzhu looked at her back and frowned slightly.
He always felt that Zhaozhao was a little different from the past. Although he was still indifferent to everything, he always felt that something has changed.
Could it be because of poisoning?
……
Soon it was the day to enter the palace for a banquet.
On this day, Xu Mingyi and Cui were sitting in the carriage together, reminiscing about what happened in the previous life.
In her previous life, she had never entered the palace to attend a banquet due to illness, but she clearly remembered a major event that happened on this day.
——It's so big that even a person who was groggy in the illness can remember her deeply.
Thank you for your recommendation votes. Thank you Shi Gan Dangdang for the rewards and Lu Qinghan’s daily rewards. I wrote down the small books and will add more after they are put on the shelves. Thank you for your kindness, thank you.
