First Wife of Zhu Family

Chapter 32 The Great Aunt
The next day, Du Rongzhi was called up by Nanny An.

She sat up in a daze and rubbed her eyes, "What time is it?"

"The morning is right." Nanny An said.

"so late……"

Seeing Du Rongzhi hugging the quilt with a blank expression, Nanny An couldn't help laughing and said, "It's the Lord who didn't let us wake you up."

The water I only need at the fourth watch today...

Du Rongzhi's face blushed slightly, and Nanny An had already continued, "Master said that the young lady has worked hard these past few days, so you just have to follow the rules." Nanny An paused, and said joyfully in a low voice, "Look, Grandpa still values ​​you very much..." Thinking of his gentle expression when he said these words today, Sister An laughed so hard that she lost her eyes.

Du Rongzhi slightly hooked her lips.

What he valued... that's about it.

Looking at Zisu who was leading the little girl to serve, Du Rongzhi stretched out her hand lazily, "Help me up." She complained tenderly, "I'm very sore."

........................

With Song Zixun's "Precious Sword of Shangfang", Du Rongzhi will naturally be more confident when the Fu family sends a matchmaker to come to bargain later.After the second breakup, Du Rongzhi simply thanked the guests behind closed doors on the grounds of being unwell, and handed over the matter of wrangling with the Fu family to Nanny An. In addition to greeting the elders every day, Growing flowers, planting grass, feeding the fish, playing with the birds in the yard, life is more comfortable than before.

But on the other side, Fu Jingrou's life is not as easy as hers.

At this moment, she was crying like pear blossoms and rain, and the silk handkerchief in her hand was almost crushed by her slender fingers.

Mrs. Fu was still puzzled, took a sip of the teacup handed over by the girl, and continued to sneer: "I wondered how a self-restraining and polite person like the young master of the Song family would go out with you in private... Feeling happy! Oh, it’s really hard for you to say it! It’s because you were born in a family like ours, and you grew up with your brothers to read and write, and you didn’t even care about etiquette, justice, and shame for a man. !"

"I...I didn't..." Fu Jingrou cried out of breath.

"Don't think I don't know what you think," Mrs. Fu ignored her, and snorted coldly, "'Chang'e loves young people since ancient times', you look down on Di Erye, doesn't it mean that he is older than you? How old are you? I told you the truth: Second Master Di is a bit older, but such a man knows how to love others, look at how sincere he is to you... Your uncle just showed so much It's interesting, they promised to take 6000 taels as gift money, 6000 taels! This is not counting the rare antiques and calligraphy and paintings in the dowry gift!"

Fu Jingrou cried until her face was criss-crossed with tears, and her whole body couldn't stop shaking.

How old is that? !
Second Master Di is over fifty years old!

But she just reached the age of Ji this year!

And she liked her big cousin since she was a child, she never thought of marrying someone else!
If it wasn't for the early death of his parents, if it wasn't for that bitch pestering him... She should have been the eldest wife of the Song family!is her!
"But you are good, you don't want to be the second wife of the Hou family who is inlaid with gold and jade, but you have spent all your time working as a concubine for others! The young master of the Song family... Huh, the young master of the Song family is good, but can you hold on to it?" You heard clearly just now in the green gauze closet, the young lady doesn’t even bother to talk to our family now! Your uncle and I have worked hard all our lives in vain, lest people say no, now for you, I've lost all face and face... If my eldest brother and sister-in-law know about it, I'm afraid I'll be so angry at you, an unfilial daughter!"

Fu Jingrou whimpered, her body went limp, and she fell to the ground.

Mrs. Fu stood up and glanced at her as if she was looking at something dirty, "Okay, I don't want to talk nonsense with you anymore. You can be honest in the future. No matter how many gifts they give, as long as you don't embarrass you at home, I will be thankful!" After speaking, without looking at Fu Jingrou, she led a group of girls behind her and walked out on her skirt.

Fu Jingrou firmly grasped the hem of the skirt on the ground with both hands, the light in her eyes seemed to be poisoned——

The poison finally turned into a name.

Du Rongzhi...

She will be here today, all because of Du Rongzhi! !
....................................

But Du Rongzhi didn't know all of this.

On this day, she had just woken up from a nap when she heard the girl come over to deliver a message that her aunt had returned home.

Great-aunt Song Yun is the elder sister of Song Zixun's compatriot, who is seven years older than him. Nine years ago, she married Ding Zongyu, the eldest grandson of Ding'an Houfu, and she has two sons and a daughter.

When Mrs. Xian passed away early, Song Yun felt sorry for her old grandmother and her two younger brothers, so she took them by her side to teach them personally, so Song Zixun and Song Zixi respected this elder sister very much.

When Du Rongzhi arrived at Jinghui Garden, the room was already full of smiles.

Mrs. Song is kindly talking to a young woman.The woman looked 23 or [-] years old, wearing a pair of lake blue trousers, with a beautiful and dignified face, quite similar to Song Zixun.

Seeing her coming, the old lady beckoned her over with a smile, pointed to Du Rongzhi and said to Song Yun, "This is Brother Xun's daughter-in-law." Then she introduced to Du Rongzhi: "This is your eldest sister..."

Du Rongzhi hurriedly stepped forward to salute.

The corner of Song Yun's mouth raised a slight smile, and she said softly, "When you met your relatives earlier, your eldest nephew was sick and was afraid of collision, so that's why you didn't come...Sister and sister are really good characters."

And let the girl give a pair of mutton fat jade bracelets as a meeting gift.

Du Rongzhi ordered Qinghe to take it away, and thanked Song Yun with a smile.

... The Song family has very few daughters in this generation, and Song Yun is the only direct daughter. It can be said that she grew up like a moon surrounded by stars. Now that she rarely comes back, everyone naturally has endless things to say.Du Rongzhi stood respectfully behind the eldest lady, bowed her head and listened silently. Occasionally, when she heard a few interesting words, she couldn't help raising her head, but she was meeting Song Yun's vague gaze.

Their eyes met, Du Rongzhi slightly bent her lips, and Song Yun looked away coldly.

………………

Everyone chatted and laughed in front of Mrs. Song, and thought that the old lady had been raising her aunt before she got married. This time, the grandparents and grandchildren had to have some thoughtful words when they came back, so they all broke up knowingly.

During this period, Du Rongzhi was called by the eldest lady to go to the Green Bamboo Garden to talk, and only after returning to her own yard did she hear that the young master had returned.

At that time, Song Zixun was on his way to send his eldest sister out of the house.

The breeze blew across the sparkling lake, messing up the reflection on the water... The servants who were serving followed closely behind a few steps away.

"...You also know the current situation of the Fu family. How can there be room for my cousin to say a word? It's hard for a person like her to grit her teeth and cry like a tearful person in front of me. I'm afraid of you Misunderstood... When she is also such a messy and greedy person like her uncle and aunt..."

"Cousin is worrying too much." Song Zixun smiled lightly, "I didn't think that way."
