The Jade of the Red Chamber

The first time I met "Uncle"

This is what happened when Zhenyu and Shuiyang lived in the shared home next door to the Lin Mansion. To be honest, Zhenyu has done many times as a former Jinshi face sage, especially because of the work done in the Ministry of Industry. For his merit, the minister of the Ministry of Industry once took him to thank the sage, not to mention those "family banquets", but this time is different from the past, and Zhenyu is really worried.

Constantly stretching the clothes with her hands, Zhenyu felt that she was as disturbed as a poor and poor fool in the previous life when he saw his famous father-in-law.Wanting to smile to ease her emotions, Zhenyu forced herself to grin. As a result, the muscles on both sides of her cheeks were as hard as stones. When she grinned out in the bronze mirror, she was a typical example of a superficial smile. I shivered in fright, and the smile on my face fell instantly.Shui Yang looked at his nervous daughter-in-law from the side, feeling very interesting, and the corners of his mouth involuntarily raised an obvious arc.

Zhenyu's mind is full of muddle now, but her mind is terrified, she is tense, she is sensitive to external things to a certain extent, she can see the suspected "gloating" smile of the culprit standing beside her, He couldn't help but stare fiercely, and said in a low voice, "Funny?"

Is this all about venting anger? Shui Yang blinked like Fu Yu when he was a child, and couldn't help but burst out laughing. Seeing his baby's angry look, he hurriedly put out the fire and said, "Don't be so nervous, it's just that my brother thought about it temporarily." Get up, shall we meet formally?" He said again: "I have seen so many times, and this time there is no outsider. He is very good-natured." As he spoke, he picked up a cup of hot tea and handed it to Zhenyu lips.

Zhenyu pursed her mouth and held the teacup in both hands, wanting to absorb some warmth and peace of mind, and said angrily after hearing this: "Can it be the same? Whether it's a pilgrimage or a family banquet, there are so many people, I just need to kneel down and listen respectfully. If there is something that requires me to answer, I just bow my head and answer. This time! The Holy Majesty said that we will meet alone, and that it is a normal meeting between relatives!"

Especially the last one, Zhenyu almost wanted to shed lasagna tears. All these years, I can hear and know that the emperor is a person with a black belly to the limit. The younger brother who loves his son even more, said that relatives usually meet each other, relatives?What kind of relative is that?Could it be brother-in-law and brother-in-law?

These two titles suddenly popped up in his mind, and Zhenyu shuddered again, well, he is very self-aware, he can only be "sister-in-law" and uncle.Zhenyu flickered again, and then became angry from embarrassment, bah, I don't want this anymore!

Shui Yang looked at his daughter-in-law's small appearance and began to feel distressed. He wondered how many people might have pushed this matter away, and hesitantly said: "Or, let's not go, I will tell my brother."

As soon as these words came out, Zhenyu was unwilling, waved his hands and said, "How can I use it like that, will I see you sooner or later?" What's more, after listening to what Shui Yang said, I know that this is a narrow-minded master, if I don't see you this time , then it will be more scary next time, and I probably won't be polite.

Curving her thin lips and smiling, Shui Yang took out the Juyu that Zhenyu had been wearing under her clothes all the time, and put it together with the jade pendant that she never left, feeling a little proud of herself, a couple.Zhenyu touches him, what's wrong?Shui Yang smiled without saying a word, and hung the jade pendant outside.

Zhenyu was a little awkward, with a piece of precious jade hanging around her neck, she looked a bit like Jia Baoyu, who needs to dress up like a jewel in the palace?

Shui Yang smiled and said: "This is just right, this time I don't need to wear court clothes, it looks good hanging out, and my brother knows this jade." The implication is that wearing the jade pendant is easy to pass the test.

When Zhenyu heard about it, she immediately stopped struggling, looked at the grandfather clock in the corner, and said, "It's getting late, let's go first, before it's too late."

The carriage with the wooden sign of Prince Jing's Mansion entered the palace without hindrance. On the way, Shuiyang tried every means to comfort and relieve her. Zhenyu finally felt that she was much better.

Qin Shulai, who asked the prince and Master Zhen to get off the car, saw Master Zhen's aura of cutting off his wrist like a strong man, and couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.

Shui Zhan was sitting in the apse of the Shengqing Palace, not knowing what he was thinking. Outside, Wei Jinchao came in to report: "Lord Nine Princes and Master Xiaolin have arrived."

Shui Zhan raised his eyebrows, squinting at his younger brother's behavior of Lin Zhenyu who was so nervous, hmph, is it useful, can I still eat him!Then he waved his hand and said: "Tell Xiao Jiu to go to Liu'an Hall, Mr. Ye is there, just ask his family to wait outside!" Thinking of the man who had finally entered the palace, Shui Zhan's nose hummed again Make a sound, as for what, one or two are so nervous about him, and his place has become a dragon's pool and a tiger's den, isn't it?

Wei Jinchao responded respectfully, knowing that the Holy One was feeling uncomfortable, and wanted to chill Mr. Xiaolin.Go out and change the words and say the meaning, and the two outside will understand.Lin Zhenyu was not so nervous at this time, and Shui Yang was relieved when he saw that they were not acting like children, Shui Yang shook his wife's hand quietly, and brought the mighty maid who came to serve The eunuch went to Liu'an Hall.

Zhenyu was standing in the hall, Wei Jinchao hurriedly asked him to sit down, this time it was a meeting between relatives, how could the "in-laws" be allowed to stand?Waving someone to deliver trays of tea and fruit snacks, Wei Jin saw two eunuchs sneaking into the hall and standing in the corner from the corner of his eyes, "zombie faces" like Wei Jinchao also twitched their foreheads, those two masters, but he Don't dare to chase people away.With the eyes of Chief Wei, one can recognize those two at a glance. One is Qin Shulai, the personal servant of the Ninth Prince, and the other is Yi An, the servant Yi An who was given to Master Ye with great difficulty by the Holy Majesty. This Yi An, Skillful and loyal, he is now the most trusted confidant around Mr. Ye!

Zhenyu sat for a while, until the teacups were no longer hot, and before hearing the eunuchs singing "The Holy Majesty is coming", she was clear in her heart: this is to keep herself cold.On the contrary, Zhenyu breathed a sigh of relief, he would just suffer if he was underwhelmed, it was better than smiling and not being able to guess anything.

Wei Jinchao came in again for a cup of hot tea. The two eyes in the corner were like decorations pasted on the wall, not eye-catching at all.

Finally, when the tea was changed three or four times and Zhenyu had already started to eat some snacks on the jade plate, Shui Zhan Shi Shiran came out from the back hall. A cold stare was so frightened that he quickly fell silent.

Before entering the gate of the palace, Shui Zhan saw Lin Zhenyu who was sitting there eating snacks, his face darkened and he narrowed his eyes. Does this person have a leisurely mind?

Seeing it, Wei Jinchao hurriedly coughed lightly, Zhenyu heard it, turned her head vigilantly, saw Jinshang's shadow, hurriedly got up, and wanted to bow down, Wei Jinchao saw it, coughed lightly again, Zhenyu remembered Shuiyang This time I specially asked before coming here to "meet relatives"!There is no need to salute.

When the incident came to an end, Zhenyu's heart was still pounding, she forced herself to bow her hands, and said in her mouth: "...I have seen the Holy One..." He really couldn't call out "brother".

Seeing this man's nervous look, Shui Zhan calmed down, gave a slight "hmm", walked up to Lin Zhenyu, and took a closer look without saying a word.

Zhenyu was nervous to be looked at, and she didn't dare to look up directly because of her long-standing habit, and her back was slightly sweaty.

This is the first time to look at this "sister-in-law" from such a close distance. Shui Zhan still has a preference for Zhenyu in his heart, and this person is barely worthy of his younger brother.Just as he was about to speak, Shui Zhan caught sight of the piece of jade hanging on his chest, and gently picked up the piece of jade with his slender and strong fingers for a closer look, so Zhenyu didn't care about his habit, and looked up at Jinshang.

When Shui Zhan saw this piece of jade, it flashed into his mind that it was the legendary "Jade Jade" that Qianxiang Kingdom paid tribute to a few years ago, and it was collected by Xiao Jiuer. He knew that this jade was very good, so he I happily gave it to my younger brother, I don't want that brat... Humph!Shui Zhan took the jade and looked at it carefully, and found that the lightly engraved pattern on it was actually the pattern of Xiao Jiu'er's identity jade pendant!

This time, the good brother Shui Zhan felt even worse, let go of Yu, let out a cold "hum", and turned to go to the apse.

……gone?Zhenyu was stunned, what's going on?Wei Jinchao hastily handed over a "reassuring" look, and chased after him.

Of the two people standing at the base of the wall, one slipped out quietly, while the other still stuck to his "post".

Shui Zhan also felt a little regretful when he entered the back hall. This first "sister-in-law meeting" was messed up. Of course, he would never admit that he was sour in his heart.Seeing Wei Jinchao coming in with a questioning expression on his face, Shui Zhan waved his hands, coughed and said, "Tell them to go back. On the fifteenth, Xiao Jiu'er will come to the palace together to have dinner with me."

Wei Jinchao hurriedly responded, and sure enough Jiuye was there when he left.Wei Jinchao said what Shui Zhan meant, Zhenyu heaved a sigh of relief, and the two walked away together.

As soon as Shui Yang heard Yi An's reply, he knew what was going on. He was not worried that his brother would embarrass his baby. Now that Zhenyu had a little recollection, he remembered the time when he embarrassed Shuangyou earlier. , couldn't help laughing out loud, it really looks like, could it be that the Holy Majesty is unwilling to give birth to a "married younger sister", Zhenyu jokingly looked at the "sister" of the Holy Majesty, and snickered unkindly, He said: "Oh, who told me to kidnap someone's younger brother? It's not easy to be a brother-in-law." The "brother-in-law" was very vague, like saying "brother-in-law".

Shui Yang knew what was going on in his daughter-in-law's little head with just a glance, and she was not angry, but her eyes were full of brilliance. When she returned, she would know who her "husband" was!

In the palace, Shui Zhan ordered people to send a lot of rewards to Lin Zhenyu, and then went to Liu'an Hall, which was very close to Shengqing Palace.

Wei Jinchao waved the palace people back, and followed the Holy Majesty himself, this is the habit of the Holy Majesty when he sees Lord Ye all the time.

Entering Liu'an Hall, seeing Ye Qiong tasting tea, Shui Zhan smiled and said, "Huai Yi." Huai Yi is Ye Qiong's word, and Shui Zhan always called him that in private.

But Mr. Ye stood up, walked forward, stared at Shui Zhan, Wei Jin twitched again, and quickly lowered his head.Ye Qiong stared at Shui Zhan inscrutably for a while, which made Shui Zhan very strange. Seeing that he was about to speak, Ye Qiongfang let out a "hum" from his nose, and cupped his hands insincerely, "My minister will leave!" ",...then turned around and strode away.

... Shui Zhan's face darkened.

Xiaobao embarrassment

Mr. Chen has always called Shui Yang "Little Treasure" in his mouth, but at Shui Yang's insistence, he stopped calling him this name in front of outsiders.It's just that the little old man's definition of outsiders is really different from Shui Yang's. Shui Yang thought that this name would disappear when there was a third person around, but Mr. Chen obviously thought that the people in King Jing's Mansion were all "insiders", so As long as there is no guest in the palace, he will keep calling, and Shui Yang has nothing to do with him, so he just lets him go.

Of course, under the black face of Lord Shui, even He Er didn't dare to stroke the tiger's beard lightly. Manager Chen shouted joyfully, and everyone heard it, but pretended they didn't hear it.

It's just that there are some things that cannot be avoided. The first time Zhenyu came to King Jing's Mansion as a guest, Mr. Chen regarded him as a guest and had the intention of looking at him tentatively. Naturally, he would not say anything inappropriate in front of him.But later, the relationship between Shui Yang and Lin Zhenyu was well known to everyone in King Jing's Mansion, not to mention that Shui Yang built a yard next to Lin's house, and the two of them moved in harmoniously and beautifully. It became a decoration, and the capable attendants followed.In this way, Zhenyu is still a guest in the eyes of Mr. Chen, and directly becomes "Little Treasure's wife"!

In the beginning, things were busy, the old man loved to worry, Wang Mansion and "Jingyuan" ran on both sides, and there were not many chances to meet Zhenyu, so naturally the title of "Little Treasure Master" was never mentioned.

Shui Yang was used to Uncle Chen's nagging and neglected such small things.

One day when Lin Zhenyu walked out of the bedroom with her sore waist, she heard Uncle Chen say outside: "Xiaobao..." Zhenyu didn't realize who this "Xiaobao" was called at first, he hid in the inner door In the back, I really didn't want to go out and let people see my weak waist and trembling legs, so I gritted my teeth and beat the villain representing Shui Yang in my heart.But after listening to a few words, the "light bulb" in Zhenyu's mind lit up, and she instantly understood who this little treasure was. She leaned through the door to look at the tall and tall figure of her own Lord Shui, and Zhenyu burst out laughing unkindly. come out.

When Shui Yang and Mr. Chen heard the laughter, they both turned their heads and looked this way. Shui Yang looked at the small door of the bedroom that was hidden and trembled with the laughter, and immediately realized that it was the baby name of "Little Treasure". Seeing that the old god was in the innocent face of Uncle Chen, Shui Yang decided to clean up the one in the room first!

Seeing Shuiyang striding towards the bedroom, Manager Chen said loudly: "Xiaobao, tell Zhenyu that your husband is coming into the house soon, pack it up!" After halfway through the door, he stuck out his head and said with a smile, "Cough, I see, Uncle Chen."

After the little old man got into trouble, Shi Shi ran away.Leaving behind Zhenyu, seeing Shui Yang's half-black face, she hurriedly bolted the door, her ridiculously weak body was pushed away by Shui Yang at once, Shui Yang entered the door and hugged her own daughter-in-law who was still laughing all the time , With a sweep of his long legs, he closed the bedroom door.

How Shui Yang punished his baby after that is unknown, but just looking at the time elapsed and Zhenyu's angry and flushed face when she went out, cough, it seems that one can guess it.

In the study, Ye Qiong drank the second cup of tea, and asked Qin Shu in a leisurely manner, "I'll be there soon, I was delayed by a small matter, huh?"

Qin Shu came to wipe his sweat, smiled awkwardly, nodded awkwardly, and scolded He Er, who was sent to ask the masters quickly, "Didn't you always brag about how fast you run? Where have you been running for so long? Why are the two ancestors Not yet!"

Ye Qiong's wife died early and did not leave a man and a half woman behind. In the early years, the situation was unstable, and the houses of Ye's family were not quiet. He fled to Lin's mansion and became Zhenyu's wife. Later, when he came to the capital, so many things happened Let him stop thinking about continuing to marry and have children.Watching Zhenyu grow up these years, he naturally treats the only disciple who enters the house very differently. In addition, Lin Zhenyu is filial to him, and the two of them are truly like a master and a father.At this moment, I just love my disciples in my heart. After Shuiyang and Zhenyu invited their relatives and best friends, they didn't feel relieved to come and have a look. I didn't expect these two boys to dare to hang him here and let him wait like this long time!

Footsteps came from outside the door, Qin Shulai hurriedly greeted them as if he had been pardoned, Ye Qiong squinted at the two of them, and said calmly: "Here you are?"

Zhenyu rushed up to make amends, Ye Qiong looked at the disciple's small appearance with a much more relaxed expression, but seeing his slightly unnatural walking posture, her eyes sank, and she fiercely gouged out Shui Yang who was following behind her.After that, Ye Qiong only pulled Zhenyu to talk, and left Lord Shui aside, Shui Yang didn't care, just smiled and listened.Qin Shulai took a careful look at his prince, thinking that the master is in a good mood.

Ye Qiong didn't leave until the sun was setting. During this period, even when they were eating together, they didn't give a single glance to Lord Shui. Shui Yang rubbed his nose, knowing that the husband might have seen something. Well, today I It is indeed too much.

A few days later, Zhenyu went to visit Ye Mansion with Shui Yang, carrying the small Western objects that Mr. Luo Lai liked personally, and entered the main hall. Zhenyu handed a handful of fried chestnuts to Xiao Jinzi. She came up to get close to him, but bounced around behind the screen holding the small paper bag.Zhenyu raised her eyebrows and didn't care about it, but she didn't expect two small heads sticking out from behind the screen when she was talking to her husband, it turned out to be another little monkey!

Ye Qiong smiled with deep meaning in her eyes, and said: "This is Xiao Jinzi's companion." As she said that, she glanced at Shui Yang, and said meaningfully: "Well, it's Xiaobao!"

Zhenyu was both surprised and amused, "Little Treasure?" The little monkey with a tuft of red hair on its head immediately turned to look at him, and Zhenyu couldn't help but burst out laughing.

The red-billed mynah hanging by the window quacked, "Little Treasure! Little Treasure!"

The corners of Shui Yang's mouth drooped, and his face was rigid. He watched his wife and husband call "Little Treasure", looked at the monkey, and then looked at him.

Qin Shulai and Qiuqian who followed quietly took two steps back.

Naturally, after going back, Zhenyu was "cleaned up" again, laying on the bed and instructing the culprit to rub his waist and shoulders, and still happily muttered about the little monkey with a tuft of red hair on its head.Shui Yang smiled with willpower behind him, licked his lips with a satisfied face, um, isn't that not bad, just laugh, at least he "eats" very full these days!As for the daughter-in-law comparing him to the little red monkey, Shui Yang said it was nothing. If he saw it well, the little monkey was a male just like Little Jinzi, and it seemed that Little Jinzi was in charge...
