15. Chapter XV

No matter whether Zhao was beating, crying, scolding, or begging bitterly, or even pretending to faint in the end, Chu Feng was anxious, faintly blaming himself, but he never mentioned anything else.

"Mother, let the second brother go." Chu Ke persuaded, "The second brother is an ambitious and capable person, and if he is released for a few years, he will definitely have a better future when he returns to Beijing." Besides, the appointment has been issued, and it is useless to say more. Mother is like this, doesn't it make the second brother embarrassed? ”

"I'm embarrassing him?" Zhao screamed, "I've been in this mansion for so many years, and what I'm looking forward to is not your three brothers and sisters?" But look at your brother, can he have half a point of flesh and blood? It's clear that he didn't know who instigated him to be cruel to me! ”

As he spoke, he grabbed something and smashed it towards Wu.

This time, Chu Feng moved quickly and blocked in front of the Wu family. A hot cup of tea was poured on his spring shirt, dripping, and suddenly a handsome young man of Zhilan Yushu was a wolf.

"I, I ......" Although Zhao was annoyed that Chu Feng had made a decision to leave Beijing, he did not have the slightest resentment. After all, it's always good to have your own son. She insisted that Chu Feng was being picked upon, and this person was naturally the most suspicious of the Wu family. Chu Huan's little is also possible!

Seeing that he had smashed his son, Zhao instinctively wanted to explain, but he couldn't pull his face down, so he shouted inwardly: "Who allowed you to come forward?" was dominated by a woman, and you're still a gentleman! ”

Wu was shot for no reason, and he didn't distinguish between them, but only hung his head and kept silent.

When Zhao saw it, he became more and more annoyed, only to feel that his son was separated from him because he married this woman. Although I didn't like to talk when I was a child, I didn't see me in such a hurry to leave me, did I?

His eyes narrowed, and he sneered: "Cheng, I won't keep you, just get out if you like." It's just ......," she smiled viciously, "Brother Qi, but I can't follow you." ”

Wu Huo Ran raised his head, his hand clenched tightly, and tried to restrain the urge to slap Zhao in the face.

Leave Brother Qi by Zhao's side?

It's a big joke!

Why, Wu single-handedly supports her husband's release? Who doesn't know that the splendid dignity of the capital is far better than elsewhere?

It's just because of Zhao's vulgar mother-in-law.

"My grandson, I can't go out with heartless parents like you. You don't feel sorry for him, but I, as a grandmother, still feel sorry. Seeing that Wu's face changed, Zhao immediately felt that he had pinched her, and only smiled proudly.

Wu only felt that this person's face was as big as a cow. Even the grandmother who could forget the 100-day gift of the eldest grandson was so embarrassed to open her mouth that she loved her child?

Finally, he couldn't help but open his mouth to refute, and as soon as his hand was warm, he saw Chu Feng's reassuring smile.

Chu Feng shook his head at her slightly, signaling that she didn't have to speak, and only said lightly: "Mother doesn't have to fight this idea." When the son left, he didn't know when he would be able to come back, so his wife and children naturally took him with him. As for whether Qi'er endured hardship, he couldn't catch up with parents like us. β€œ

After speaking, he didn't want to see Zhao's hideous face because of his anger, so he only took his wife's hand out.

Wu knew that although he didn't show it on his face, his heart was uncomfortable, so he didn't say anything else, and meekly followed him hand in hand all the way through the garden.

Spring is getting warmer, and the scenery in the house is already bright. The spring grass is just growing, the spring flowers are blooming, and the blue sky is really pleasant.

Turning a gentle slope, I saw an apricot tree in front of me, and the pink and white apricot blossoms were in full swing. At the stone table under the flower tree, two people were sitting opposite each other. The man was dressed in a blue dress, his clear and handsome face was not cold and cold as usual, his eyebrows were smiling, and he looked at the girl opposite dotingly.

The girl's complexion was delicate and delicate, her complexion was better than snow, her hair was full of green silk and she was loosely held, and another strand was dragged on her chest, and her watery eyes seemed to press the sky and β–‘β–‘.

It was Chu Huan and Ruyi who were playing under the flower tree.

Such a scene, quiet and beautiful, makes people can't bear to destroy the past.

Ruyi held his cheeks, stared at the chessboard with a sad face for a long time, rolled his eyes a few times, coughed lightly, and ordered to Furong not far away: "Xianggong and I are both thirsty, come and pour tea." ”

Fleur couldn't help but laugh, took boiling water from the small stove next to her to make tea, and sent it over in a small tray.

Ruyi personally went to a cup of tea, and diligently delivered it to Chu Huan, trying to make a beautiful smile: "The weather is dry, drink some tea to moisten your throat." ”

How could Chu Huan not understand her careful thoughts?

He glanced at her playfully, took it, opened it and sipped lightly.

Taking advantage of this gap, Ruyi quickly grabbed a few chess pieces from him and quickly stuffed them into Furong's hands.

Fleur was obviously used to helping her master do such things, and immediately moved her arm, and several chess pieces fell into her sleeve.

Chu Huan was unconscious.

Chu Feng chuckled, led the Wu family over, and saluted with a smile: "Big brother, sister-in-law." Good Yaxing. ”

Ruyi, who was pretending to drink tea, choked on a sip and coughed repeatedly.

"It's our sin to surprise my sister-in-law." Chu Feng only knew that this sister-in-law was a few years younger than their husband and wife, but he didn't expect it to be such a childishness. Only then did he notice that what Ruyi was wearing was actually a costume of the same color and material as Chu Huan.

People have already lost it, Ruyi naturally didn't want to say it, only covered half of his face, and said softly: "The second brother is serious, but it's okay for a while." Sit down, Fleur, and get a new tea. ”

A few maids came over and quickly took away the chessboard pieces, and Chu Feng saw that Chu Huan was in a good mood, so he sat down with the Wu family.

Fleur changed the tea, respectfully served it and stepped back.

Chu Feng saw that Chu Huan was only wearing a thin spring shirt, so he asked with concern, "Big brother, is he in better health?" The old people all say that spring covers autumn frost, and the eldest brother is good at maintenance. ”

Chu Huan nodded, "With Master Chen's presence, it's a lot better than in winter." ”

Indeed, Ruyi can detect these days that Chu Huan's hands and feet are no longer cold, but have a little warmth. Even his former pale face was somewhat bloody.

"That's good." Picking up the tea, I saw that the tea soup was clear and transparent, and the tea cup with white jade carved lotus pattern reflected each other, which was very good-looking. I haven't seen such a tea set in the house, so I think it's in the little sister-in-law's dowry.

Wu then spoke to Ruyi. She is also a smart person, and when she speaks, she is more likable than her third brother and sister Fang. In and out of the words, Ruyi is very respectful of Ruyi, who is younger than himself, which is called Ruyi is very satisfied.

I heard Chu Huan ask Chu Feng when he would leave Beijing, and Chu Feng replied, "It's only been three or five days." ”

Ruyi can't help but wonder.

Although it is an order from the imperial court, this is too urgent, right? Chu Feng was released, and he wanted to take his wife with him. After three or five days, you can't pack your luggage, right?

Unless, they are already prepared.

Wu covered his lips and smiled at Ruyi: "It turns out that the second master said a long time ago that he wanted to go outside the capital to see and travel. Now, although the burden is under pressure, it can be regarded as getting what he wants. ”

Ruyi thought of the identity of her eldest sister-in-law, so she asked, "Are all the things packed?" I'm afraid it's going to be hectic these days. ”

Wu smiled lightly: "Just pick up the necessary things to get by." Liangzhou is different from the capital, I heard that the wind and sand are very big, and it is cold and dry in winter, and many things in Beijing are afraid that they will not be used, and they will be troublesome if they are brought. ”

"Bring some herbs."

Liangzhou, a small border town. Ruyi thought for a while and said, "My second brother is stationed not far from Liangzhou. If something happens, go to him. ”

These days, Old Madam Shen and Mama Fang have told Ruyi a lot of things about Chu Huan's childhood. Because of Chu Feng's kindness to Chu Huan, Ruyi is also willing to be kind to this duty couple.

Sure enough, Wu Shi came out with a surprise in his eyes.

The second son of the Marquis of Anyuan's Mansion made a name for himself in the army at a young age. Today, he is the general of the four horses. In places like Liangzhou, the people are fierce, and I don't know how many forces are entrenched. With the sentence Ruyi, it is equivalent to having Su Yunqing as a backer. For Chu Feng, the beginning and the end can be described as a benefit?

Standing up and blessed his body to Ruyi, Wu Zhengse said, "Thank you, sister-in-law." ”

At this time, she looked at this delicate nephrite-like sister-in-law differently.

Ruyi waved his hand, "It's just a sentence." ”

She only does things with her heart, and she doesn't think about asking for any gratitude in return.

Chu Feng opened his mouth and took back the words that had no exit. He didn't have any qualifications to ask Chu Huan for anything.

In the silence, a faint choking sound was heard. The four of them turned their heads to look, and saw a slender and graceful figure leaning on a flower tree, covering his heart with one hand, and holding a handkerchief with the other hand to cover his mouth and nose and sobbing softly. That look is indescribably pitiful.

It was Zhao Rong'er.

Sensing the sight of several people, Zhao Rong'er straightened up, seemed to hesitate, and staggered over.

"I've seen the eldest cousin, the second cousin, the eldest cousin, the second cousin."

The girl's soft voice was like a feather, with a stirring charm.

Brother Chu Huan didn't speak, Ruyi just nodded and said. Although Wu didn't like Zhao Rong'er's style, he still felt that she was a young girl, and it was not good to be too thin for her, so he got up and walked to Zhao Rong'er's side, and Wen Yan asked, "Sister Rong'er, what's wrong with you?" But someone bullied you? ”

"Not really." Zhao Rong'er looked at Chu Huan with spring-like eyes, and when she saw him lowering her eyes, she didn't even give herself a look, her eyes became more and more red and sad, and she only said gloomily, "It's just that I see that this flower is blooming well now, and I think that it will wither in just two or three days, and I feel it." I didn't want to disturb my cousins and sisters-in-law, it was Rong'er's fault, and I asked my cousin-in-law to forgive Rong'er for this. ”

As he spoke, he bent his knees at Ruyi, looked at Ruyi in a fog, and her delicate body even trembled, as if Ruyi was going to eat her in the next moment.

Ruyi yawned.

"Look at what my cousin said." She said lazily, "This is a place to relax for the big guys, we came, and my cousin naturally came." What to bother or not? It's like we're too aggressive. ”

He raised his voice again and called Fleur, "I poured tea for Miss Cousin too." She cried for a long time, and her throat was very dry when she thought about it. ”

Zhao Rong'er was blushing at what she said and bit her lip.

"Pretentious!"

Chu Feng suddenly spoke. Zhao Rong'er is his own cousin, although there is a blood relationship, Chu Feng has always looked down on this girl. Both parents died, and he was a poor person, but when he came to the Guogong Mansion, he was generally treated like a young lady. even said that because she felt sorry for her niece, although her mother gave Zhao Rong'er less food and clothing than Chu Yu, it was better than Chu Pei and Chu Yao and other concubines. Where is the need to cry every day? If you want to say that you miss your parents, your parents have been dead for a few years, and you can't think about your relatives anymore!

"What kind of falling flowers wither and feel it? What is it in the house that can't stand your cousin and makes you so sad? ”

Chu Feng didn't give Zhao Rong'er any face.

This girl used to always like to hang around in front of him and the third brother, but since the eldest brother came back, she didn't know what her mother said, so she dressed up delicately and ran here. Her mind is simply known to passers-by, and she can't be seen by others.

It's just a monkey show for everyone to see!

"Second cousin!" Zhao Rong'er's tears fell, this time it was real tears. The blood on her face faded, and her little face turned white in an instant. Wow, covered his face and ran away.

In a trance, I could still hear a few choked words.

"I told Aunt SΓΉ to go ......"
