Koi adopted daughter jumps over the farm gate

Chapter 692 Aunt Chen enters the Zhen Mansion
To the surprise of Xiao Li, Mrs. Zhen Guo, the gifts and posts she sent to Zhen's Mansion fell into disfavor.

According to normal etiquette, the Bai family should reply to her even if they don't return the gift.

She waited for three full days before the Bai family's post arrived.

The post was written by Zhen herself. She declined her invitation and instead invited her to visit the Bai family.

Xiao Li held the post and hesitated.

She couldn't figure out Mrs. Zhen's thoughts, and she didn't know how to deal with it when she came to the Bai family's door.

After all, the two of them have not seen each other for more than 30 years. Putting aside the memories of the past, the two of them are complete strangers.

When he was hesitating, the concierge sent another message to meet the old lady.

They are Aunt Chen, mother and daughter.

Since Aunt Chen Zhen Rong lived with her aunt in the side courtyard and seldom went to the big garden, Xiao Li's memory of Zhen Rong was not as deep and deep as that of Zhen Fu.

All I know is that the daughter of a second-married concubine also had no idea where she ended up when the Zhen Mansion fell.

Now that she has come to the capital, Xiao Li speculates that she has probably lived with Zhen Fu for so many years.

Aunt Chen has been sending greeting messages to the Zhen Guo Gongfu for three consecutive days. The first two times, the old lady of the Zhen Guo Gongfu was bedridden and asked for medical advice. She was so busy that she had no time to entertain the guests.

In addition, Xiao Li didn't know if Aunt Chen came to Zhen Guogong Mansion simply to meet the old lady or for other purposes, so although she wanted to meet her, she held back in the end.

Seeing that Aunt Chen has been submitting posts for three consecutive days, it would be inappropriate to refuse again.

While he was hesitating, Grandma Zhang who was next to the old lady came to send a message, saying that the old lady wanted to meet Aunt Chen, mother and daughter.

So Mr. Li arranged for her capable servants to welcome Aunt Chen, mother and daughter in.

Aunt Chen, Chen Jing'er and Chen Xuan'er sisters could not conceal their excitement as soon as they stepped into the gate of the Zhenguo Palace.

After all, this is the place where she has lived since she was a child, and it is her former home.

The further they walked in, the more excited Aunt Chen became. The current Zhenguogong Mansion, whether it was the gardens or the houses, was exactly the same as in her memory.

"Mom, this is where you lived when you were a child. It's really big."

The town government palace is full of flowers and trees, and the pavilions and pavilions are very exquisite. Chen Xuan'er can't help but look at it with admiration on her face.

No wonder my mother always disliked Nanguan Town. If she lived in a garden like this, she would not like Nanguan Town, Yangfeng County and Huaicheng.

"That's right, the scenery of this garden is second only to that of the royal family. This was the residence of a certain prince in the previous dynasty. The Holy Emperor at that time was grateful for my grandfather's illustrious military exploits and specially gifted this big house to my Zhen family." Aunt Chen said. You Dese told his two daughters about the glory of this house.

"You see there is a canal there that diverts water. In the summer we row boats at our house to enjoy the lotus." Aunt Chen said, pointing to the ditch not far away with weeping willows floating on both sides.

"Mom, which courtyard did you live in at that time?" Chen Xuan'er couldn't hide her envy and asked.

Walking around a patch of flowers, passing through a rockery, and arriving in front of an exquisite courtyard.

"My mother and my aunt lived here back then." Aunt Chen stood in front of the yard and pointed to the pear tree with withered flowers inside. "This place used to be called Lihuayuan because the yard was full of pear blossoms."

Aunt Chen's nose felt a little sore when she said this.

Although she was a concubine, she could honestly say that her aunt-in-law did not treat her badly.

He asked her mother to raise her personally and allocated this quiet courtyard for her and her mother to live.

My mother was once a maid by my aunt's side. My aunt and my mother had a very good relationship, and my sister often took her out to play.Based on this, her status in the house has risen rapidly, and no one dares to look down on her. She has had the same food and clothing as her sister since she was a child.

When the Zhen Mansion was defeated, his mother also died tragically following his father and aunt.

"Mom, you two live in such a big courtyard." Chen Xuan'er looked incredulous.

Before, I had only heard that my mother lived a luxurious life, but when I actually saw it, I was still shocked.

"It's nothing. You don't know that the courtyard where my sister lives is bigger and more beautiful. My grandmother loves her so much that she specially allocated the best courtyard in the house for her to live in." Aunt Chen mentioned this, and her warmth rose again. Replaced by childhood jealousy. "By the way, who lives in Lihuayuan now?" Aunt Chen asked a nun who led her into the house.

"Aunt Zhang lives here now." Mammy replied.

"Aunt Zhang? I remember that there was a maid named Zhang in my aunt's house. She was very beautiful. Could it be her?" Aunt Chen asked.

"Exactly." Grandma said.

Aunt Chen clicked her tongue twice and said to the two daughters in front of the mother: "No wonder the second young lady of the Zhen Mansion is domineering now. Her mother was very sharp-tongued back then. But the second young lady did not follow Aunt Zhang's mind."

Mammy: "..."

Chen Jing'er was troubled by her mother's inability to talk at any time and anywhere, so she couldn't help but stop her: "Mom, don't talk about others."

Aunt Chen looked indifferent.

Anyway, she was also the serious second young lady of the Zhen family, and she dared to be Zhen Jiqiu's second aunt.

The aunt said that the niece was not what she should be.

"Look, this is your aunt's original yard." Passing by a yard filled with the fragrance of flowers, Aunt Chen stopped.

"It was originally called Qixia Garden."

Chen Jing'er and Chen Xuan'er looked inside and saw two rows of weeping willows beside the pool, mixed with countless flowers and plants, covering the sky and the sun without any dust.If you look carefully at the willow shade, another folded plank bridge with red railings is revealed. On the other end of the bridge, you can see a cool tile house with the same color of water-polished brick walls.

"Who lives here now?" Aunt Chen asked.

"Back to my aunt, the eldest lady lives here." Auntie said.

"I just said that the best things in the Zhen Mansion should be given to the eldest lady, and this is still the case." There was a sour taste in Aunt Chen's tone.

Chen Xuan'er sighed repeatedly on the side.

It would be great if I could live in a yard like this.

Yesterday, she and her mother-in-law went to see the house given by the Queen Mother. Compared with the previous house in Nanguan Town, it was a hundred times better.

Even the houses of wealthy families in Huaicheng may not have such a good view.

And it's very spacious, with a total of twelve rooms.

But it is completely incomparable to Zhen Guo Gongfu, not even the yard of the eldest daughter of Zhen Guo Gongfu.

Chen Jing'er was also amazed inwardly, but it wasn't evident on her face.

The Zhenguo Palace was bigger and more magnificent than she thought.

The Zhenguo Duke's Mansion originally belonged to the second brother-in-law of the Zhen family. My mother was the second brother's bloodline, so the Zhenguo Duke's Mansion was half of my mother's.

Mother is right, why can't they live in it?

"Where does the old lady live?" Chen Jing'er casually asked the grandma who was leading the way.

"Just cross a bridge ahead." Grandma said.

After crossing a bridge, we came to an extremely quiet courtyard full of vigorous pines and cypresses.

Similarly, Aunt Chen is also familiar with this yard.

"Is this Sister Rong?"

Aunt Chen, mother and daughter were led to a penthouse by the nanny. A lady dressed dignifiedly stood up and asked with a smile.

Aunt Chen felt that the person in front of her looked very familiar, but she couldn't remember who it was.
