Feng Rui followed He Shun to the big house opposite.
Zhou was in shock and it took a long time to react.
"You mean the child who was imprisoned in the temple with you last time lives across the street?" asked Ms. Zhou.
"Yes, Auntie." Xiao Fuyuan nodded.
Xiao Fuyuan speculated in her mind, deducing from Zhou's ghostly expression that A Zhenmo would not be a hidden boss.
Zhou was shocked again and looked at Feng Zhiheng.
"Mom, is there any problem?" Feng Zhiheng asked puzzledly.
"It's nothing." Zhou said with a forced smile.
The sound of gongs and drums outside was beating from the beginning to the end of the village. Bai Dazhuang went out for a while and then came back in.
"Dad, the village chief summoned everyone to discuss the matter again. He said it was about mining in the mountains."
The white board was sawing wood, and he planned to build a new chair for his daughter. He always felt that the chair in the private school was not suitable for Xiao Fuyuan's ergonomics.
"Okay, I got it, let's go now." Bai Banban said as he put down the hammer, and went to the private school's ceremony office with Bai Dazhuang.
It just so happened that the private school was on holiday today, so Xiao Fuyuan took Feng Zhiheng to play with A Zhen, but Zhou was hesitant to say anything.
"Is Brother A Zhen here?" Xiao Fuyuan arrived at the mansion opposite, walking around as freely as if he were at home.
"Young master is busy." Wu Xiaoying lightly jumped down from the tree and said.
"Then I'll go wait for him in the kitchen." Xiao Fuyuan said.
Then he took Feng Zhiheng to the kitchen.
There was someone who arrived earlier than Xiao Fuyuan. Saburo was taking turns with the shovel and listening to Liu Yishou's instructions.
"The fire needs to be higher. Stir-frying does not mean simmering."
"You're so stupid. You can't pour the vinegar directly. You have to rub it against the side of the pot."
In the main room of Lao Bai's family, Mrs. Zhen was doing embroidery, while Mrs. Zhou sat aside and watched.
"Sister Zhen, I can smell the fragrance of your plum blossom embroidery." Mrs. Zhou praised.
"I showed off a Buddha to Mrs. Zhou. Sister, help me take a look at Yang Zi." Mrs. Zhen handed the traced paper pattern to Mrs. Zhou.
Mrs. Zhou admired while looking at it: "Sister, you still have the heart, I'm so stupid that I can't even embroider a handkerchief."
The two chatted for a while, and Mrs. Zhou had something on her mind, and for some reason she wanted to tell Mrs. Zhen.
Seeing that all the men of the Bai family had gone out and Mrs. Bai was not at home, only Mrs. Zhen, Xie Chuntao and Qiuniang were doing embroidery work at home, so they started talking about common things.
"Sister Zhen, do you know who lives across from you?" asked Ms. Zhou.
"I know, it's a certain prince." Zhen said with a faint smile.
Xie Chuntao and Qiuniang were shocked, what, A Zhen is the prince?
Especially Xie Chuntao, the needle in her hand almost pricked her finger.
She guessed that A Zhen had an extraordinary background, but she never expected that he was a prince.
Then what is the identity of Xie Xiaolian's housekeeper? He also recognized her as his sister.
To Zhou's surprise, Zhen was so calm.
"Well, sister, to tell you the truth, I didn't know the eldest prince was here until I saw Eunuch He." Zhou said, hiding her surprise.
Mrs. Zhen pushed the embroidery needle with her thimble and said, "I've been here for a year."
Zhou asked: "How did sister know?"
Zhen said: "I guessed it from the first time I saw He Shun."
Xie Chuntao raised his head and glanced at his mother-in-law. How did her mother-in-law guess it? She guessed it right and she never revealed that A Zhen was the prince.
"You can always observe it as long as you pay attention." Zhen said vaguely.
Zhou felt that Zhen was a mystery, how a country woman could discern the identity of a noble person in the capital.
Judging from the reactions of Xie Chuntao and Qiuniang, they did not observe it.
However, if I look closely over the past two days, I can see that Mrs. Zhen does not look like a country woman at all. Her speech and behavior have a certain magnanimity.
Zhou helped Zhen split the thread.
Zhen embroidered the flowers steadily.
After living in the countryside for nearly thirty years, she thought she had forgotten the people and things in the capital, but seeing the son of her old friend still had ripples in her heart.
Feng Rui's father was engaged to her fourth aunt.
Later, her aunt broke the engagement with the Feng family for the sake of Da Xia, and went to Nanzhao to get married.
But the family still didn't save it.
Later, she heard rumors that her fourth aunt's boat capsized at sea and her body was not found.
She still doesn't know whether her fourth aunt is alive or dead.
Everyone in the family was like duckweeds, except for her father's concubine brother who sold his ancestors to seek glory and rose to prominence.
Feng Rui looked exactly like his father. As soon as he entered the Bai family gate in the morning, Mrs. Zhen thought it was his father.
After a while, Bai Dazhuang and Bai Banban went home to get their tools. The male laborers in the village had already started digging iron ore in Jinshan, and Bai Zhaomei also followed.
In the big house opposite, under the leadership of Meng Zhexu, Xie Xiaolian, Wu Xiaoying and other housekeepers followed up the mountain.
A Zhen didn't go.
Feng Zhiheng's father, Feng Rui, was stopped by A Zhen before he went up the mountain.
"Feng Aiqing, it is absolutely forbidden for me to get married to your beloved daughter." A Zhen made his attitude clear regarding the marriage to Feng Zhiheng.
"Your Highness, you know that the Queen Mother's decree is irresistible." Feng Rui said.
Feng Rui felt bitter in his heart. He finally got the apple of his eye, but even if he had to send it to the palace, he still wouldn't let it go.
But he couldn't bear the threat of his father severing the relationship between father and son.
Besides, the reason why A Heng was given marriage to A Zhen was because he was afraid that the imperial concubine would take action first and give her to the second prince.
Since the marriage was for the prince, the Zhongjing Hou Mansion naturally sided with the prince who was supported by the Queen Mother.
After Feng Rui finished speaking, he bowed to A Zhen and left.
He is not afraid of offending A Zhen. His old man has tied the entire Zhongjing Hou Mansion to the eldest prince's boat, so he will not go to any lengths to kill him.
It's not done yet.
When Feng Rui came out, he met Xiao Fuyuan and Feng Zhiheng at the door.
"Little Yuanbao."
Feng Rui smiled all over his face. Not only did Xiao Fuyuan save his daughter, but the delicate and cuteness of Xiao Fuyuan made Feng Rui's old father's heart burst.
"Uncle Feng." Xiao Fuyuan greeted with a smile.
"Xiao Yuanbao, uncle wants to ask you, where is your grandfather's home?" Feng Rui suddenly asked.
What?
Why did you ask such an irrelevant question?
Xiao Fuyuan said clearly: "In the nearby village, I have grandma and grandpa, as well as uncle and aunt."
Feng Rui snorted, felt sad for a moment, and murmured: "Did you admit your mistake?"
Xiao Fuyuan didn't say anything and pulled Feng Zhiheng back home.
Feng Rui looked at Xiao Fuyuan's back and shook his head.
Xiao Fuyuan came to the house and saw Mrs. Zhen doing needlework. Xiao Fuyuan shook Mrs. Zhen's hand and said coquettishly: "Mom, I want to eat the fruit you washed."
Xie Chuntao stood up and said, "Sister-in-law, let me wash it for you."
But Xiao Fuyuan shook her head and insisted on pulling Zhen outside.
"Tell me, what's the matter?" Mrs. Zhen nodded at Xiao Fuyuan's forehead. She knew her daughter, Mo Ruomu, and her daughter must have something to say to her quietly.
"Just now at the door of Azhen's house, Uncle Feng asked me where my grandfather's home was, and he also said something like "I made a mistake." Xiao Fuyuan told Mrs. Zhen exactly what Feng Rui had chatted with her.
Mrs. Zhen thought for a long time, rubbed Xiao Fuyuan's head and said, "Don't be afraid, Uncle Feng just asked casually, it's nothing."
Is it?
Xiao Fuyuan looked into Zhen's eyes, a little disbelieving.
Mom, what secret do you hide in your body?
