good meal

Chapter 101
"Death?" Chu Liangrao's eyes moved slightly, secretly guessing that this was the trick of that person in the palace.

Although this rumor can't stand up to the prince's immorality, it has a favorable advantage in public opinion.As soon as the word spread, it would be difficult for Su Tuochuan to marry a girl of the right family.Not only that, the prince's side was also relieved a little because of the rumors, and it would not be impossible to get rid of the charges when he calmed down.

You must know that the crown prince made frequent mistakes in these years and was saved by the queen. It is not so easy to bring down the crown prince with this incident.

Although there was no tit-for-tat, Chu Liangrao still sensed the queen's ulterior motives.

Fortunately, now that something happened to the crown prince, even if the incident happened in Zhangfu, the queen would not go all out to investigate. This would be a help to Chu Liangrao.After thinking about it for a while, Chu Liangrao talked to Mama Du about a few interesting things from yesterday.

While talking, Ding Xiang knocked on the door and came in to pass the news, saying that the old lady asked the Princess to talk.

These days, the old lady was busy with the affairs of the manor, and she spoke very little to Chu Liangrao. At this time, something happened to the Su manor and she came to find Chu Liangrao. Could it be that she wanted the princess to take advantage of this?Mother Du's face froze.

On the other hand, Chu Liangrao was much calmer, and gave Mama Du a peaceful look, she went inside and changed her clothes before taking Ding Xiang and Mama Du to the old lady.As soon as she got off the sedan chair, Mother Qiu greeted Qin'er with a happy smile, saying that the old lady had been waiting for a long time.

Mother Du's heart became more and more uneasy, but she still calmed down. After all, Dingxiang was not in a mess. As the princess's close mother, she couldn't be compared by a maid.

Chu Liangrao nodded slightly, stepped into the courtyard, and let Qiu's mother lead the way.

After crossing the threshold and bypassing the embroidered nanmu eight-treasure screen, Chu Liangrao bowed calmly and said: "Grandmother." But there was no response for a long time, Chu Liangrao raised his eyes slightly, and saw the old lady kneeling in front of the shrine, her eyes tightly closed. Closed, his lips moved, looking like he was devoted to the Buddha.

Straightening up, Chu Liangrao affectionately ordered someone to bring another futon.

Mother Qiu turned around and took the futon and placed it beside the old lady. Chu Liangrao nodded slightly to signal for the person to step back, and then followed the example of the old lady and bowed down.

The old lady who heard the movement opened her eyes a little, and saw Chu Liangrao bowed in a calm manner and gracefully.This demeanor of honor and disgrace was natural, the old lady nodded secretly, closed her eyes and read the scriptures for a while, then she made a gesture to get up.

Chu Liangrao stretched out his hand to help her up.

The old lady sized up Chu Liangrao, and saw that there was no resentment in her brows, and there was a hint of warmth on her face.Patting her little hand resting on her elbow, she cut to the chase and said, "Have you heard about the Wen family?"

"Ah Rao heard about it a little bit." Chu Liangrao narrowed his eyes and said.

"Hey." Sighing lightly, the old lady said with emotion, "A good child, no matter how you die, it will be gone. If you want to talk about reincarnation and karma, it shouldn't fall on the child."

The old lady turned a corner and talked about Su Erlang's wife, but Chu Liangrao didn't respond, and helped her to sit down, offering the prepared hot tea with both hands.The old lady took a sip from the teacup, then put it aside, took Chu Liangrao's hand and asked her to sit beside her, then the old lady said: "Look at our Ah Rao, it really hurts more and more, like this Well-behaved, why would grandma want you to marry?"

After hearing this, Chu Liangrao smiled slightly and said, "Grandmother is reluctant to part with Ah Rao?"

"Naturally, Ah Rao is the tip of my heart." The old lady said with a smile, "But Ah Rao is getting older, no matter how reluctant she is, grandma can't miss your marriage because of herself."

Raising his face, Chu Liangrao suppressed the emotions in his heart and said, "What did grandma say? It's only natural for Ah Rao to accompany grandma. How can there be any mistakes?" Holding the old lady's hand, Chu Liangrao looked sincere, "But Ah Luo annoyed grandma, so grandma would say such things."

As soon as the words came out, the corners of the old lady's lips twitched almost imperceptibly, and then she covered it up with a more loving smile: "Look at you child, what are you thinking about all day?" She raised her index finger and pointed at Chu Liang. Rao's forehead, and ordered the servants to bring cakes for Chu Liangrao to taste.

Chu Liangrao responded, and took small bites of the sweet-scented osmanthus cake. The sweet taste made her show a hint of satisfaction.

The old lady swallowed her tea, and said, "This sweet-scented osmanthus cake was sent by Dongjiefang Baoqingzhai, what does Ah Rao think?"

Mother Du's heart tightened. This Baoqingzhai was the place where Chu Liangrao and Su Tuochuan met for the first time. The two met because of the dispute over the osmanthus cake. After that, the princess fell in love with Su Erlang .Unexpectedly, the old lady would ask Chu Liangrao's intentions so bluntly. Mother Du felt a little helpless, and she squeezed her wet palms tightly, and she secretly looked at Chu Liangrao.

Seeing that Chu Liangrao's face remained unchanged, he said seriously: "Sweet but not greasy, it melts in the mouth, it seems to be more refreshing than before." Even so, Chu Liangrao put down the unfinished osmanthus cake in his hand .

The old lady nodded with satisfaction and said: "This Baoqingzhai has been open for so many years, and now it's under the leadership of another person. The cakes are indeed better than before. It can be seen that there are still merits for the later generations."

"It's not unreasonable for Baoqingzhai's business to flourish when people go to high places," Chu Liangrao said.

The old lady's eyes lit up, and she thought to herself that this child, Ah Rao, has good eyesight, so she was worried that the other end of the Su family would be unnecessary, so she stopped bringing the topic to that matter after thinking about it.Chu Liangrao patiently talked with the old lady for a long time, stayed for dinner, and then returned to her yard.

After closing the door, Mother Du murmured in her heart, and seeing that Chu Liangrao rested like a normal person, she left Ding Lan to watch over her, and took Ding Xiang out of the room to talk in a low voice.

Ding Xiang naturally knew what Mama Du was worried about. Fortunately, she had the bottom line in her heart, so she said: "Mom, don't worry. The old lady talked to the princess today, but she didn't want the princess to suffer. As the princess said, being a man Do you want to look forward?"

After hearing this, the stone in Du's heart fell to the ground. After thinking about it in her heart, she waved her hand and let Lilac go down.Looking fixedly at a corner of the courtyard, Mother Du said to herself: "It's no wonder that the old lady is worried. If the former Princess, she would definitely go to find Su Erlang..." Shaking her head, she shook off these things that shouldn't be done. With some thoughts, Mama Du let out a long sigh of relief.

When Chu Liangrao woke up, Zhou's mother also came back, and with the help of Ding Xiang, she went into the room to reply.

"Ding Xiang, bring mother a cup of tea." Chu Liangrao ordered.

Ding Xiang knew that it was inconvenient for her to be present, so she left the house, consciously guarded the door, and handed over the serving of tea to a little maid.
