The eldest lady didn't care whether Su Rong was in the mood to continue sleeping. After she vomited, she tilted her head and fell asleep.
Su Rong sat quietly on the bed for a while before lying down. After lying for a long time, she felt sleepy, walked around the eldest lady, got up and got out of bed.
She actually had the urge to go to Zhou Gu and ask him why he couldn't let go. What's wrong with the Qingyun Ladder that the old Protector, Yan Huisheng and Qin Taifu laid for him? Even a three-year-old child understands the temptation of being remembered in history.
How much taels of silver is the affection between Zhou Gu and her in Jiangning County worth? She is not one of the best people in the world. She is not that big-faced. One of them is that she is not stingy. The other is that she has a lot of problems. The third is that she is heartless and habitual. She is cold and cold. intrinsic.
Even if she is not the princess of Nanchu and does not go to Nanchu, she will not be able to be a good daughter-in-law of the Duke Protector's Palace. She can imitate the dignified and gentle appearance of everyone's ladies, but she cannot change her casual and willful nature that is engraved in her bones.
It's not that she insists on belittling herself, but that she has a very clear understanding of herself. Compared to a person like her, her slight affection for Zhou Gu was not enough to make him give up his great future and the road to success.
She wanted to ask him, his brain was a good thing, why did he only use it to pretend to be in love?
She stood at the door for a while, but did not leave the room after all. Instead, she turned around and sat in front of the stove. Red date tea was boiling on the stove, bubbling and fragrant with the fragrance of dates. She poured a cup, and then Added water, then touched the tea cup and sat in front of the stove to drink.
The fire was very bright, and the fine golden charcoal was burning red.
She remembered that when she was a child, her home had many entrances and high expenses. She could not afford to burn the best gold charcoal, so she could only burn second-rate charcoal. And because she loved to fight, she wasted money. The eldest lady was angry, so in order to cure her, she cut off the charcoal. Her charcoal asked her to go up the mountain and chop firewood like the farmers did, so as not to have to fight with others. She was too lazy to move and didn't feel cold, so she passed by. But the little girl Yuewan couldn't bear it, so she just You can go up the mountain to cut firewood, then carry it back and add dry firewood to the stove. The dry firewood burns hummingly, and the stove burns with a red light, which warms the whole house. Yuewan clapped her hands and said, "Miss, this thick dry firewood is warmer than the finest golden charcoal."
The eldest lady didn't expect that she would actually go to the mountains to chop wood. She would rather run ten miles in one trip than listen to her words. It was time to fight. Later, when she was angry, she was asked to pay for the house's dry firewood, so she could only drive her car out to chop firewood. Later, she cut too much firewood, which was not only enough for each house and courtyard in the house, but also saved her money to buy charcoal. He developed a financial path, selling dry firewood and earning money. Later, he became ambitious and made his own charcoal...
Su Rong thought about a lot of things in her childhood. At that time, there were not so many choices. She just followed the path she knew, no matter what, it would not kill her.
Later, when she was about to get haircut, she met her fiancé Zhou Gu.
That young man was the proud son of heaven. Wherever he went, the sun was everywhere, his eyes were dazzling with brightness, his whole body was scorching with the sun, and his aura was as bright as the moon.
The beauty made her feel happy. She stretched out her paws to carefully test him, getting closer and scheming him step by step, painting his untouched jade with the colors she liked.
She succeeded, but also failed.
She put down the tea cup, pressed her eyebrows, smiled dumbly and silently, then used iron tongs to pick up the fine golden charcoal and threw it into the stove. This charcoal was good after all, smokeless, silent, and unlike coarse charcoal. The dry wood made a buzzing noise when burning, and the whole stove vibrated.
When the eldest lady woke up, she found Su Rong sitting by the fire. It looked like she had been sitting there for a long time. She rubbed her eyes and sat up, "Why did you run downstairs?"
Su Rong looked at her and said, "You are dishonest when sleeping. Do I dare to sleep on the same bed as you?"
The eldest lady laughed and scolded, "Damn girl, how dare you despise me after raising you so well."
She sat up, put on her coat and got out of bed, came to the stove, reached out and tapped Su Rong's forehead vigorously, "What do you want to eat tonight?"
Su Rong said: "Duanhua has sent a group of people from the princess's residence. None of us need to cook anymore. You can rest!"
The eldest lady snorted, "It's all a favor."
Su Ronxiao, "What comes comes and comes, what borrows comes and returns. Favors come and go. If you don't use others, how can others be embarrassed to use you in the future?"
The eldest lady clicked her tongue, "A bunch of nonsense."
She reached out and touched Su Rong's fingertips, "How long has it been roasting? Why are your fingers still so cold? Go to bed and rest. It's not as big a matter as tightening your body and bones. Don't rely on your youth. I don't know." Cherish it, you will suffer when you get old."
Su Rong was also tired and yawned, "Okay, I'm going to sleep."
She went to bed obediently and got into bed.
The eldest lady muttered, "It would be great if you had listened to me like this when you were a child."
Su Rong stuck out her tongue at her, "You already have enough well-behaved daughters. There are six of them. Do you still want to mold each of them into the same mold?"
The eldest lady laughed angrily, "It's easier to take care of than a troublemaker like you, and it allows me to sleep for an extra hour every day."
Su Rong snorted, turned away, and closed her eyes.
The eldest lady sat by herself for a while, drank all the jujube tea in the pot, and then got up and left her room.
The students in the front hall had already dispersed, and Su Xingze came back from seeing off the guests. He planned to come and see Su Rong. He happened to walk to the entrance of the courtyard and met the eldest lady coming out of it. He called out "Mother."
The eldest lady nodded to him and said disgustedly: "Why did you drink so much? You smell like alcohol."
Su Xingze rubbed his brows, "They said they are nervous about waiting for the results to be announced. They are afraid that they won't be able to sleep well tonight. Drink more, and you can sleep well when you are drunk. When you wake up early tomorrow morning, the results will be announced."
The eldest lady nodded, "That makes sense."
She waved to Su Xingze, "Your sister is asleep. Don't bother her. Go back and rest by yourself!"
Su Xingze stood still and asked him what he was more concerned about, "Mom went to the Duke Protector's Mansion today, but what did someone say to you?"
The eldest lady looked at Su Xingze suspiciously, "How do you know?"
Su Xingze rubbed his hand between his brows and said, "What did someone really say to you? Is it Princess Sheng'an? Or is it the Duke's wife?"
The eldest lady sighed, "Mrs. the Duke."
She did not hide anything, and repeated in a low voice to Su Xingze what the Duke's wife had said to her.
After Su Xingze listened, he nodded and asked, "Did you and Qimei tell the truth?"
"I told you." The eldest lady said, "I don't know if I did the right thing, but if I kept it from her, I don't think it should be. After all, it concerns her. Instead of letting her find out that Zhou Guchui went to Nanchu in the future, it would be better now Let her know that if she stops Zhou Gu, she will still be able to do it in time."
She paused for a moment, "The Duke's wife must have meant the same thing. She only has two sons, and she has devoted more efforts to her younger son Zhou Gu. She must also be testing. If Xiao Qi is really hard-hearted, even Zhou Gu was not given a chance to go to Nanchu, so it would be in vain for him to go to Nanchu."
Su Xingze nodded, remained silent for a moment, and said softly: "Mother is right. The Duke and I have eaten more salt together than I have walked."
The elders think more deeply.
Zhou Gu asked him to hide it, so he did it. Zhou Gu probably didn't expect that the Duke's wife would tell his mother in private, and it was impossible for her mother to hide it from Su Rong.
It’s the middle of the month, my dears, come on with your monthly tickets, okay?
