The emperor always wants to promise himself

Chapter 61

Chanjuan took the lead in saluting, and the maidservants in the back followed suit, Zhen Xue nodded her head: "Excuse me."

While she understood it, she couldn't help feeling a little emotional.

These four people don't look like maids at all, and they are probably better dressed than some prostitutes of small official families.

In those years when I was in the Prince Regent's Mansion, I was not as respectable as these maids.

A look of disappointment flashed across her eyes, and Zhen Xuetian didn't expect much from the people in the room.

Qingran and Chanjuan looked at each other, Chanjuan said with a smile: "Miss is here to visit the old lady, isn't it? The servant girl will go in and tell, Miss, wait a moment."

As Chanjuan spoke, she picked up the curtain and entered the house. The moment the heavy curtain was lifted, there was faint laughter and laughter from inside, which sounded lively and warm.

But across the door, Zhen Xuetian was standing in the icy and snowy place, chilling intermittently.

If it was said that she still had some naive fantasies in her heart in the past, but at this moment she was ruthlessly pierced by the sharp knife turned into this laughter.

That was the joy of others, it had nothing to do with her, she was just an outsider who didn't fit in with Duke Dingguo.

In the past ten years, Zhen Xuetian has never been so clearly aware of this.

The room was really lively, the earth dragon was burning, everyone was wearing thin jackets, the old lady was wearing a mop on her forehead, leaning on the soft couch, although she looked bad, but she was smiling at the moment, obviously very comfortable.

Sitting on her left is her daughter-in-law, who is now in power in the backyard - Mrs. Sun, who is in her early thirties. Her appearance is not very good, but her temperament is gentle and obedient.

On the right side of the old lady sat a row of girls and a boy.

The leading girl is about seven or eight points similar to Zhen Xuetian, but she is well-raised, her skin is delicate and ruddy, she has a pair of almond eyes, and a pair of dimples down her face. She is very innocent and sweet when she smiles.

A few words made the old lady laugh out loud.

Sitting behind her were a few concubines, but most of them didn't dare to speak like her, and only quietly apologized.

When Chanjuan came in, the boy saw it first, "Hey, is sister Chanjuan okay?"

Chanjuan bowed slightly to the boy: "Master."

The old lady raised her eyes and smiled kindly: "Chanjuan, is it cold? Don't watch outside, go outside and warm yourself by the fire."

Chanjuan smiled and stepped forward: "Thank you, old lady, the servants are not cold, it is Qingran who brought the eldest lady to pay respects to the old lady, do you want to see the old lady?"

The room fell silent in an instant, and everyone looked at each other, but none of them realized who this "Miss" was.

It was Zhen Xuerou who came back to her senses first, and said to the old lady, "It's sister Xuetian."

The old lady's eyes moved slightly, and she seemed a little moved: "Xuetian? Why is Xuetian back? Please come in!"

"Yes."

Chanjuan walked out quickly, and when passing by the lady, she inadvertently saw the embarrassing face of the lady.

Chanjuan pursed her lips, pretending not to see it.

When Chanjuan went out to face Zhen Xuetian, she put on a decent smile again: "Miss, the old lady is here to invite you."

Saying that she made a gesture of invitation, Zhen Xuedian nodded and walked in. Before entering the door, she paused slightly and took a deep breath.

After entering, Zhen Xuetian did not squint, eyes half down, stood in front of the old lady's soft couch, in the middle of the room, knelt down to the old lady and said: "Granddaughter Zhen Xuetian pays respects to grandma."

The old lady looked at the slim Zhen Xuetian, her heart twisted, her eye sockets gradually became moist, she was struggling to get off the ground, Chanjuan immediately stepped forward to help her: "What is the old lady doing?"

The old lady shook her head, pushed away Chanjuan's hand, got down to help Zhen Xuetian herself, and held her to watch for a long time: "Good boy, get up quickly, let grandma see!"

When she spoke, her voice trembled unconsciously, which made Zhen Xuetian feel quite uncomfortable when she heard it, and the two of them looked at each other with red eyes.

The expressions of the people on the side were all different, the eldest lady got up and supported the old lady and said: "Mother, you are not in good shape yet, sit down quickly."

Taking advantage of the trend, she pushed away the old lady's hand holding Zhen Xuetian, and a group of people rushed to help the old lady sit back on the soft couch.

Zhen Xuetian's hands were empty, the warmth was gone, and her heart was also empty.

No one paid attention to her, but Zhen Xuerou smiled and said: "Sister, don't stand, sit down, we are all one family."

Zhen Xuetian looked around, it was a family, but she had no place in this family.

For a moment, everyone's eyes were on her, Zhen Xuetian subconsciously straightened her back, feeling as if she was naked and being watched by others.

The eldest lady glanced at her daughter whom she hadn't seen for many years, and saw her bowing her head submissively, frowning: "Chanjuan, go and bring a stool for the eldest lady."

Chanjuan bowed and was about to do it, the old lady stretched out her hand: "Hey - don't bother, come, Xuetian, sit beside me, let grandma take a good look."

Zhen Xuetian walked over hesitantly, and sat next to the old lady under the eyes of all kinds of people around her.

The old lady took Zhen Xuetian's hand, stared at Zhen Xuetian non-stop with tearful and kind eyes, and after a long while her lips trembled and said: "Okay, Xuetian has grown up, and she looks so beautiful, you Looks more like your father."

Zhen Xuetian twitched her mouth, her father?She had never seen her father before, didn't know what he looked like, and didn't know how to answer the question at this moment.

After the old lady finished speaking, she looked down at Zhen Xuerou and another boy, "Xuerou, Zhixing, come here."

Zhen Xuerou and Zhen Zhixing stood up and walked to the couch.

"grandmother."

Zhen Zhixing called out obediently, and the old lady nodded, "This is your eldest sister, Xuetian, you haven't met before, it's hard to get together, don't be too pretentious."

Zhen Zhixing and Zhen Xuetian's eyes met, and they looked at each other.

Zhen Zhixing probably looks like a lady, not very outstanding, but of average appearance, but men don't need to pay so much attention to appearance.

Zhen Zhixing was also a little curious about this younger sister who looked similar to Zhen Xuerou. If she hadn't come back today, he would have almost forgotten that there was such a person in Dingguo Mansion.

He nodded at Zhen Xue dessert: "Sister."

Zhen Xuetian shouted unnaturally: "Brother."

Zhen Xuerou hooked the corners of her lips, "Why are you back today?"

Zhen Xuetian looked at this younger sister with extremely complicated emotions in her heart. Looking at her bejeweled attire, she silently lowered her eyes: "I came with the son, the son was talking to the grandfather in the front hall, and I came to visit the grandmother."

"Yu'er is here too?" The old lady's smile deepened, "That's just right, let's stay for lunch together before leaving."

The old lady was really in a good mood at the moment, the corners of her mouth didn't come down, the lady interjected and said: "Mother is very happy today, I will eat more in a while, before I was ill, my mother didn't eat much. If you lose weight, it will hurt the hearts of a few children!"

　Sorry, the number is wrong, this is the tenth watch
