Zhu Shang propped himself up.
Through the half-opened window, I opened my eyes that were always squinted and stared at the magnolia flowers swaying slightly in the spring breeze in the hospital, and the corners of my mouth slowly raised.
He said very calmly: "It won't be long before I stand up again, and the officials will grant a marriage to Lord Jiaren County."
Seeing Zhu Shang's angry eyes, Xu Nuo thought that County Lord Jiaren was really in big trouble this time.
She put her ten fingers together, put it lightly on her chin, snorted, and said: "You are lying on the couch now, and you have to be carried when you go out. How can you still make the official family return to Prince Ning's Mansion and Prince Ning within half a month?" The privy envoy's family granted marriage?"
"Xu Liu, if you want to get the official marriage by yourself, you will naturally not tell me about the deal between you and Liu Shengren. It is obvious that you want to use my hand to accomplish this."
Zhu Shang's face showed that he had already seen through your intentions.
Xu Nuo glanced at Ji Xuan, who was sitting quietly aside, and stood up awkwardly.
A simple person like Ji Xuan, now that he knows her thoughts, may not want to interact with her in the future.
She had to explain.
Xu Nuo touched a fan from somewhere, and while walking around the room, Xu Nuo knocked the fan on the palm of his hand.
"I originally thought about waiting for my eldest brother to leave Beijing to take up his post before taking up this matter. Now that County Master Jiaren is restless, I have to divorce her early. But I just went to Liu Shengren to talk about County Master Jiaren's marriage. If If I intervene in this matter so quickly, the saint will first think that I don't trust her, and secondly, the saint will think that I am too restless, and she may even have to find out that I am not only in charge of He Yuetang. I will not make such compensation. He killed his wife and defeated his troops."
Xu Nuo said with a look of reluctance, "That's why I have to ask you, a cunning fox, to take action. Don't let the queen know that we pushed this matter away."
If you want to make something that is not a coincidence a coincidence, you can only leave it to Zhu Shang.
It seems that the more she explains, the more thoughtful she becomes.
The description is getting darker and darker, so let's let nature take its course. After all, Ji Xuan can interact with the scheming Zhu Shang, so there is no shortage of her.
As expected, Ji Xuan's eyes widened when he heard Xu Nuo's words.
He had always known that Mrs. Xu Liu was smart and clever, but he didn't know that she could think so carefully before doing something.
Seeing Xu Nuo's embarrassed expression, Zhu Shang felt inexplicably better. He narrowed his eyes again, and all the emotions in his eyes were withdrawn.
"After the official marriage is granted, I will send two congratulatory gifts to Lord Jiaren County." Xu Nuo said, holding out two fingers.
"I can guess what one of your gifts is." Zhu Shang stretched his arms until he was tired, so he pulled a table and lay on it.
Xu Nuo shook his head in disbelief, but also wanted to know if Zhu Shang had guessed correctly, so he leaned over.
Zhu Shang whispered a few words in Xunuo's ear, and Xunuo jumped away instantly, looked at him with wide eyes, and said: "Old monster."
Although her actual age is about the same as Zhu Shang, she still thinks that Zhu Shang, who can guess her thoughts, is an old monster.
"After you reach the end, if anything goes wrong, you can come to me. I have many ways to kill the things behind her." After Zhu Shang said this, he pushed Ping Ji away and lay down again.
He thought about starting this matter to teach Lord Jiaren a lesson, and he thought of at least ten ways to do it. But all the connections and business in his hands have been handed over to Xu Nuo. This method cannot work on his own. Now that Xu Nuo intends to give this gift to the head of Jiaren County, it is the best.
Xu Nuo and Ji Xuan came out of Zhu's house. Ji Xuan asked, "Sixth lady, did Beijiang guess right?"
Xu Nuo reluctantly answered "yes".
She has lived two lives, yet she can still be guessed so easily.
Ji Xuan nodded, asked no more questions, and sent Xu Nuo back to Xu Mansion.
When he arrived at the gate of Xu's mansion, Ji Xuan said goodbye with his hands in hand, promising: "Suzhou sent Biluochun from Mingqian Dynasty. I just want to bring some back to your uncle."
Just as Ji Xuan was about to refuse, someone drove a carriage and stopped at the door.
Xu Nuo frowned when he saw the character "Zhang" on the carriage. The Xu family had not met anyone named Zhang in the capital, and the carriage was smaller than what people in Bianjing were used to.
Could it be that he's from out of town?
The Zhang family who have connections with the Xu family from other places...
Zhang family? Xu Qian’s husband’s family!
The carriage stopped, and a man who looked like a shopkeeper got out of the carriage.
This man was very well-dressed and very energetic, as if he had just come from West Street after listening to a little tune.
Xu Nuo immediately recognized this person as the shopkeeper who came to Xu Mansion with Zhang Xian when she attended a tea party in Suzhou two years ago.
The shopkeeper naturally recognized her and hurried over to greet her.
When Ji Xuan saw this, he said goodbye and left.
He wasn't used to being with strangers, let alone facing someone he knew and someone he didn't know.
In this situation, he would be completely embarrassed and unable to speak.
The shopkeeper first met with Mrs. Lu in the flower hall, and then was taken to the guest room by the housekeeper of Xu Mansion to settle down, waiting for Xu Gucheng.
He promised to wait for Mrs. Lu at Yingcheng Courtyard. When she came back, he asked: "Mother, I wonder why the shopkeeper of the Zhang family came to Bianjing?"
"I'm here to send a congratulatory gift to your eldest brother, and I brought some Mingqian Longjing with me." Ms. Lu was wearing plain clothes today, and her hair accessories were very simple, but she looked very good, which made her outfit brighter.
Xu Nuo didn't like Mr. Zhang, and she didn't like the Zhang family either. She said, "The tea that uncle sent yesterday also contained Longjing. The Zhang family should know about it, so why bother?"
"The Zhang family has been in Hangzhou for a long time, and the location of the tea house is the best. Their Longjing tea is better than the Xu family's. Your grandmother always uses the Longjing tea from the Zhang family tea house."
Lu smiled and took Xu Nuo's hand, wiped her hands with a wet handkerchief, then took hand ointment and spread it evenly on Xu Nuo's hands.
Xu Nuo remained motionless, enjoying it.
She usually played with knives and swords, and Mrs. Lu naturally knew that. Although she never stopped her, she always said that a woman's hands were extremely important. If they were rough, her husband's family would have a hard time marrying her, so he helped her apply hand ointment every chance she got.
"Mom, can you leave some for the child? I want to give some to Ji Wulang. When the Ye family holds a literary meeting the next day, I will also give a copy to Ye Bangyan." Xu Nuo knew that Xu Pingyi had prepared a hand-carved jade pendant for Ye Qingchen, so she gave it to Ye Qingchen. The tea is ready.
"Okay, I'll ask Nanny Li to send it to you. Do you want the Biluochun from yesterday?" After hearing the promise to send Ye Qingchen a congratulatory gift, Mrs. Lu was very happy, but she tried her best not to show it.
The master had taken a fancy to these two children when he was in Suzhou. Now they play well and are both good at tea art. Liu Niang is also a close disciple of Mrs. Ye. Maybe it's time to go to the Ye family to find out more.
Xu Nuo didn't expect Lu to think so far, and after estimating the amount of tea he usually drank, he said, "Biluochun is enough."
"Okay, then have you thought about what to wear to Ye Jiawen's party?"
The more Ms. Lu thought about it, the more she felt that her daughter and the fifteenth son of the Ye family were a perfect match. After all, she couldn't hide the smile on her face, and Xu Nuo was stunned for a moment.
