Zhou Xuan was pleasantly surprised. He did not expect the Queen to be so generous. He took it with both hands respectfully and said, "Aunt, you are so thoughtful."
The nanny smiled and said, "The Crown Princess knew that I was coming, so she asked me to send a few small things."
As she said that, she took out another box.
Yu Tingwan looked over.
There were splashing drums, tiger-head hats and shoes for young children.
Shen Zhiyi sighed, "This is too stingy. Why did the Crown Princess give such cheap things?"
She soon realized, "Yes, the Crown Princess has always looked down on Chu Ning."
Cheap?
I'm afraid the hats and shoes were made by the Crown Princess herself.
To wear and play with.
I dare not give too much, for fear that the Queen will not like it.
I can only give a decent gift, even shabby.
But Yu Tingwan saw the mother's heart in it, and there was no other choice.
After the nanny gave the gifts, she was ready to leave.
Duke Zhou said softly, "Madam, you've been running around. If you have nothing to do later, why don't you stay for a cup of tea? It's almost time for dinner, so it won't be too late to leave."
Madam said, "Then I'd rather obey you than be respectful."
The breeze blew gently, and the fragrance of flowers wafted in waves.
Before the meal started, everyone continued to greet each other.
Chu Liulang's mother, Madam, was particularly proud of hearing the compliments one after another.
Someone was complimenting, "Madam Chu is lucky. She has a pair of good children. The daughter married the Duke Zhou's mansion, and the son married the Zhou family of the Minister of Works' mansion. It can be seen that your Chu family and the Zhou family are destined to be together."
The next moment, someone began to ask.
"By the way, why haven't the mother and daughter
of the Zhou family arrived yet?" Madam Chu was slightly stunned.
Not arrived? The mother and daughter of the Zhou
family
have always been sensible. She looked around and saw Zhou Yurou and the others. She
was suddenly unhappy.
Madam Chu ordered the maid behind her, "Go out and see if they have arrived?"
No.
Zhou Yurou had an accident on the way here.
She was sitting in the carriage and was fine, when she heard the crowd screaming and exclaiming. A mad horse came from nowhere and rushed forward.
Originally, it was Shen Zhiyi who was knocked away.
But Shen Zhiyi was picked up by Yu Tingwan.
The carriage of the Minister of Works, which was supposed to be behind the Shen family's carriage, became the object of the collision.
Zhou Yurou's eyes just flashed with fear, and there was a huge jolt. When the carriage was overturned, she and Madam Zhou flew out together.
Her mother, Madam Zhou, applied medicine and was still lying in the clinic.
She only had a scratch on her skin and a wound on her head, but fortunately it was not deep and would not leave scars. Wrapped in gauze and specially made up, her lips were pale, and she looked particularly delicate and haggard.
Zhou Yurou adjusted her dress, and her thin waist was stuck very tightly by the belt, so she called a carriage again.
After finally arriving at the Duke Zhou's mansion, she was helped down by the maid like a willow in the wind, and saw Chu Liulang standing at the door.
Seeing her like this, Chu Liulang felt pity and walked down the stairs quickly.
Just as he was about to speak, someone else spoke first.
"Miss Zhou, what's wrong with you?"
This question was asked by Ning Yunling behind him.
He just arrived at this moment.
After all, the heavyweights always have to be late and the last to appear.
Ning Yunling saw Zhou Yurou's delicate appearance and felt distressed all of a sudden. He strode closer and directly squeezed Chu Liulang away.
Chu Liulang: ...
Zhou Yurou said softly: "It's okay, but there was an accident in the carriage when we came."
The rest of her words were said to Chu Liulang: "Mother is fine, but she can't come. I was slightly injured, but fortunately there will be no scars. It's just that I missed the event, and I hope the Duke's Mansion will not blame me."
Her eyes were as white as lotus and as bright as autumn water: "Mr. Chu, are you waiting for me specially?"
As she spoke, her face blushed.
Ning Yunling couldn't bear to see Zhou Yurou and Chu Liulang being affectionate.
He was about to go in with melancholy.
But suddenly he thought of something and stopped.
Seeing Zhou Yurou like this, Chu Liulang felt itchy in his heart, and wanted to hold her in his arms.
He was already an old hand in the romantic places, and spoke softly.
"You haven't come for a long time, I was worried. Seeing that my mother sent someone out, I just came here myself."
"It's good that you are okay. There are reasons for the incident. Even if it's late, it's okay."
"It's all my fault. If I had known that you would be in trouble, I should have gone to pick you up in person."
Ning Yunling squeezed in again.
"Where are you injured? Was it on Wangzhi Street?"
Zhou Yurou didn't want to say more, after all, it was embarrassing: "Yes, thank you for your concern, Prince Ning."
"I do care about you!" Ning
Yunling was excited all of a sudden .
"So it was you! I happened to pass by at that time! I saw two shadows flying past me."
Ning Yunling was still frightened.
"Fortunately, I dodged quickly, otherwise you would have hit me."
He always said what he wanted to say, looking up and down at Zhou Yurou, whose face was slightly stiff, and finally muttered to himself as he climbed the stairs.
"It's strange. When I left, she was clearly lying on her head. There was a loud bang, and it sounded painful. How come it's just a minor injury?"
Since when, there has been a crow circling above Duke Zhou's mansion.
The blue crow flapped its wings, and finally landed steadily on the eaves of an inner house, its eyes rolling around.
Chu Ning, who had just finished her confinement, finally came out holding the little baby in red clothes.
She looked very good, and was still a little plump due to childbirth. She had a faint
orchid-like breath and was soft and delicate.
The little girl didn't look very energetic, but as soon as she came out, Duke Zhou happily took her away to perform the full moon ceremony.
Chu Ning was about to stand beside Zhou Xuan, but she saw Chu Liulang, who was talking and laughing with Zhou Yurou not far away, and her face sank.
Just because there is a new person, you have to break up with her. It's really a dream!
Ning Yunling in front of him suddenly locked his eyes on Yu Tingwan, who was holding his chin leisurely.
He was about to go over.
"Ning Yunling!"
Xiao Huaiyan shouted from the opposite side.
Xiao Huaiyan was particularly friendly and patted the empty seat next to him: "Come and sit down, it's specially reserved for you."
Ning Yunling:? ?
Unbelievable.
He walked closer: "Are you ready to be a man?"
Xiao Huaiyan: "I'm just sighing."
"Zhou Xuan is younger than me, the same age as you. Now he's a father, but you and I still haven't found a marriage."
Xiao Huaiyan: "I just praised him as a real man. He can be so agile even with a broken leg."
"Him? A real man?"
Ning Yunling spat.
"He went to your house for a banquet a few years ago, and under the influence of alcohol he dared to bully a maid from your Xiao family. Although she was a maid, she was born by her father and raised by her mother and promised to someone else. When you got the news and rushed over, he had already succeeded, and the maid... hanged herself. You beat him up afterwards. Have you forgotten?"
"I was there too, I saw it clearly. His clothes were in disarray, and the thing down there was terribly small."
"At that time I said that pulling up the seedlings would not help them grow."
"What's more, without the prosthetic leg, he can't even stand steadily."
When he said this, he was slightly stunned.
"He has to take off his prosthesis, and he looks weak. It must be tiring to rely on one leg every time."
Xiao Huaiyan: "I don't know."
Ning Yunling: "I don't know either."
He is very strong.
Once he has doubts, he will not give up until he achieves his goal.
"No problem, call the person over and ask, and you'll know."
"Zhou Xuan!"
Ning Yunling said loudly: "Come here!"
Zhou Xuan didn't understand, even though he didn't like Ning Yunling, he still walked over.
"What's the matter, Prince Ning?"
Ning Yunling: "If this prince meets someone with a disability on the road, he will also take care of him."
"I'm not targeting you on purpose, I just can't stand people like you who rely on your status and don't take women seriously."
When Ning Yunling called Zhou Xuan, Yu Tingwan stood up, moved over and listened.
Then he heard Ning Yunling's words that deliberately disgusted Zhou Xuan.
"No, you are like this, how can you still be in heat?"
A life has been taken!
