Chapter 217 Grandfather
Chu Junlan nodded, supported the black painted square table in the middle of the warm kang with his elbow, and asked with curved eyebrows: "Did you give me the medicine I asked you to bring here, or did you make the decision to add something?"
Xiao Xu's face was calm and he opened his eyes: "No, don't talk nonsense."
His shy look made Chu Junlan laugh again, leaned closer to him and said, "Don't I know your temperament yet? I want to help your future uncle, but I can't help but I can't help it, so I have to use my name, such as giving some silver or something, and my elder brother won't refuse. Xiao Xuxu, you're OK!"
When she approached, the girl's elegant fragrance filled his senses. Xiao Xu could hardly look at her bright eyes. He opened his eyes uneasyly, but felt a little resistance on his chin.
She actually gently pinched his chin with her thumb and index finger!
Xiao Xu couldn't help but open his eyes widened, and many kinds of imaginations similar to the picture appeared in his mind. The more he imagined, the stiffer his expression became and the hotter his face became. He even began to think that he had not eaten spicy fishy things at night, and had wiped his teeth and ate tea, so there shouldn't be any unpleasant smell.
Who knew that the next time, the hand holding his chin was transferred to his cheek.
The skin on the young man's face is delicate and soft.
"Oh, it's easy to pinch." Chu Junlan giggled.
She pinched her cheeks on both sides without hesitation, and didn't use much strength in her hands. It was better to say that she was rubbing than pinching. She was able to let go of her intimate play with her so much. Although Xiao Xu was lost, she couldn't help laughing.
"Okay, don't think about handing over money to my elder brother in the future. The Chu family also has their own life to live, and you can't let you support such a whole family. How can you live in your family as well?"
"I'm too embarrassed these days." Xiao Xu whispered, "Now the entire Chu family has no investment, how long can I eat my old capital? When I heard that, even Aunt Lu had taken out her body and quietly handed it over to my uncle to supplement the family income."
"Oh? What about Lu Xiangxiang to others?"
"Ignore it," Xiao Xu seemed to know what she wanted to say, and smiled, "It's hard for you to be close to that person, my uncle."
"Yes, just like our little Xuxu."
"You... don't say that in the future," Xiao Xu stood up uncomfortable, "It's not too early, I'm going back."
"Okay, don't be caught."
"good."
Xiao Xu walked to the window, turned around and whispered: "I may not have to be free during the Chinese New Year. I have improved this year, and my father has just held wedding events, and there are many social events in the royal palace."
"Then I will let Zi Yan send you some medicine you want tomorrow."
Xiao Xu nodded and looked at Chu Junlan for a moment, but he still didn't ask Chu Junlan, "Where are the maids and servants around you?" It was enough to know that she was responsible for doing things and was not dangerous. The master said that she should leave some space for people, otherwise it would make the girl feel bored.
The Duke of Maoguo’s Mansion is ready to welcome the New Year, and the surviving life after the disaster makes people feel the value of peace and joy now.
On the 29th day, early in the morning, Duke Mao’s wife sent Chu Shan to the village to pick up Duke Mao back to the mansion.
"If your father has committed Zuo Zhuan with you, don't disobey him in person. He is the most slutty person. If you advise him well, he will say that he will not come back and will not have any good food at home. In short, coax the person back first."
"I know!" Chu Shan said with a smile, "Don't worry, Mother, my father is the most accustomed to me. Besides, during the Chinese New Year, it is boring for my father to be alone in the village. There are so many people in the family."
"Oh." Mrs. Maoguo sighed.
The conflict between Duke Mao and Chu Hua originated from different political views. They would quarrel when they met, and neither of them could convince each other. She was reluctant to let Duke Mao celebrate the New Year alone in the village, but she was afraid that the old guy who was stern and stolen from the straitor would come back and stir up the mansion with a good chaotic chaos.
Chu Shan was about to go out, and Chu Lingxi immediately came up: "Father, father, are you going to pick up grandfather? I want to go too!"
Chu Shan thought for a while: "Sure, your grandfather loves you the most anyway. You act coquettishly on the way and talk to your grandfather well. If you are in the New Year, don't let him be a little mean."
"My father said that, grandfather, I'm going to sue him!" Chu Lingxi happily ran to wear the cloak.
Chu Shan smiled and shook her head: "This stinky girl."
No matter how lively the family is prepared, Chu Junlan is still busy doing his own business.
In the afternoon in Changfeng Garden, the lobby sister-in-law Liu was by her side and carefully helped her.
Seeing that she pulled out the needle, she poured a small cup of strong wine and wiped the needle clean with cotton.
Chu Junlan smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work, sister-in-law."
Liu shook his head and said softly: "I can't help anything." Looking at the sleeping Chu Feng again, he asked in a low voice: "Sister, is he better, father-in-law?"
"It's better, my sister-in-law told my elder brother that my uncle is fine, and I'll be fine just to recover slowly. I just have to be careful and don't let him eat like that in the future."
"Yes, I must tell you brother. Thank you so much these days. Neither of us knows how to thank you."
"Why should the family be so heretic?" Chu Junlan stood up, took Liu's hand to the outside room, and whispered, "If my sister-in-law is not busy, I happen to be free today, so I can also show my sister-in-law how the pulse is?"
Liu's face turned red, and he lowered his head and said shyly: "I'm working on my sister."
She couldn't imagine that yesterday she mentioned that she had never been able to have a son or half of her daughter after years of marriage. Chu Junlan took the initiative to take her pulse today. She had always had this idea, but was embarrassed to speak. Now she was even more embarrassed, but she was even more grateful.
Chu Junlan carefully looked at Liu's pulse and smiled and said, "My sister-in-law is not seriously injured. She has some uterine cold problems. It will be better if she takes care of her. I will tell you a diet therapy prescription."
Liu was overjoyed and nodded with a flushed expression: "Thank you sister, I, I have always envied my second brother and sister. I am the eldest sister-in-law, but I was unable to give birth to a child for your elder brother. Not only did your elder brother not blame me, but he also refused to take a concubine. The more he did, the more anxious I became."
Brother Jiong from Chuyuan's family is only ten months old and is still in his infancy. He looks like a pink ball. The weather is cold, and the second cousin's wife rarely brings the child out. Chu Junlan still followed Xu to see it once. It's really likeable, and it's not that Liu is worried.
"This matter is too urgent. The fate will come naturally."
Liu nodded. Chu Junlan must be Yunying not married, and it is hard to say too much about her sister-in-law.
"Grandma, Miss Lan, the Duke of the Kingdom has returned home. The old lady invites you and the two of you to the front."
Chu Junlan raised his eyebrows and became a little curious about the Duke of Mao whom he had never met. Last time, this man returned to his mansion, and left after a big fight with Chu Hua. He returned in anger and hurried away, but she had no chance to pay her respects.
When Chu Junlan and Liu came to Chunhui Garden together, Madam Yu next to the old lady was talking to the maid in front of the door. When they saw the two, they hurriedly came up to meet them.
"Grandma, Miss Lan." Madam Yu bowed with a smile.
"Hello Madam Yu." Chu Junlan and Liu returned the greeting, "Is my father and mother here?"
"Everyone is here, everyone is here," Madam Yu smiled and lifted the brocade warm curtains for the two of them. "The Duke of the State is back, the old lady likes it today, and she is calling for a preparatory banquet."
Chu Junlan smiled and thanked him, and walked into the door with Liu one after another. He handed the maid the fur-collared cloak he wore outside to the maid in the outside, and walked into the inner room.
At this time, the whole family was there. As soon as Chu Junlan walked around the screen, he saw the tall, gray-haired and elegant old man sitting upright.
This was the first time Chu Junlan met Duke Mao in front.
Unlike the image of the "stubborn old man" in my mind, Mao Guogong is elegant and not as elegant as a military general. He is like a great scholar who has been a knowledgeable life. Just looking at his kind-hearted and gentle smile, you can imagine that Chu Feng, Chu Hua and Chu Shan are old, and perhaps the same is true.
"Here you come. Come and see your grandfather." The old lady waved to Liu and Chu Junlan with a smile.
The two of them smiled and walked forward, with a deep blessing.
"I've met my grandfather."
"No gifts, sit down." Duke Mao smiled and took the hot tea brought to him by the old lady.
The old lady rarely smiled so happily and joked: "Mr., you often come back. Are you not envious of the village in that village and watching the family's children and grandchildren lively?"
Duke Mao smiled: "I am used to being clearing, but I am not used to being too many people."
Everyone knew that Duke Mao was insincere. He clearly couldn't stand Chu Hua's actions, so he went to the village in anger.
Chu Hua lowered his head and ate tea without being moved.
Duke Mao looked at Chu Junlan and said lightly: "This is Sister Lan. I heard from your grandmother that your uncle saved his life thanks to you."
Chu Junlan hurriedly stood up and saluted, "Grandfather, this is what the granddaughter should do."
Duke Mao nodded: "You are a smart child. You know when to do what you should do and when to recognize your relatives. This is great. Just keep Ansheng ready to marry at home, your father will not treat you badly."
Duke Mao said slowly and his tone was gentle, but it sounded very hard when he heard it carefully.
Is this not to agree with Chu Hua's recognition of her daughter, and because of the imperial edict, I have no choice but to hit her on purpose?
Chu Junlan remained calm and smiled: "Yes, the granddaughter followed the teachings of his grandfather."
"Yeah." Mao Guo said justice, "I heard you haven't gone back there to see it recently?"
Everyone looked up at Duke Mao and Chu Junlan in the same agreement.
This is the first time that Chu Junlan has come to Duke Mao’s Mansion and someone has mentioned the Chu family in person.
"Yes," Chu Junlan smiled, "I have never had to go back."
"So, if you have free time, you still want to go back?" Duke Mao smiled and said, "You, since you are the granddaughter of Duke Mao, it has nothing to do with the original Chu family. It is true that you have stopped thinking as soon as possible. I want to say that you have never returned and are a sensible person, so why can't you help but praise me?"
After saying this, Chu Hua immediately burst into anger and said in a deep voice: "Father..."
"What the Duke of the State said is." The old lady hurriedly stopped Chu Hua's words and winked at Chu Hua.
