Celebrating the Year of the Fish: A Princess is Not a Concubine[GL]

[ten]

It is true that the handsome young man in this portrait is Zhou Jinyu, but Wei Huanian was a little taken aback for a moment.This basket of portraits was brought out from the Queen's Palace, and it was for her to choose the portrait of the son-in-law of the family, but——

Just why is there someone named Zhou Jinyu here?

If her long-term memory is correct, this person should come from a rich merchant's family, and how did he become the candidate for the son-in-law?

Before she could speak, Wan Qiu said: "Princess, I was just about to tell you about this. Didn't you want to find this Mr. Zhou? The butler just told me that he went to Zhou's mansion last night to make sure there is There's nothing wrong with Zhou Jinyu, it's just..."

Wei Huanian raised his eyebrows: "Huh?"

"Ah!" Wan Qiu sighed, "It's just that people from the Zhou Mansion replied that Zhou Jinyu had gone to Lingnan for a visit, and that he just left the day before yesterday, and he might not be able to come back for a year or so."

Wei Huanian asked, "Just left the day before yesterday?"

"That's right, it was just the day before yesterday!" Wan Qiu said reluctantly: "You said Mr. Zhou was still in the temple yesterday, so why did he just leave the day before yesterday? I'm afraid she didn't want to come, so she deliberately said that to prevaricate us. "

"I don't think that's the case." Wei Huanian didn't say much, but said: "Yesterday, when the housekeeper went to invite someone at night, she thought we had other plans."

"Hey...?" Wan Qiu suddenly realized: "I'm telling you! How dare he evade our Princess Mansion like this, it turns out that Mr. Zhou misunderstood us!"

Unknowingly, late autumn's address to Zhou Jinyu has changed from "that little boy", "that shameless person" and "that apprentice" to "Young Master Zhou".

How could she not see the brilliance in the young master's dull eyes the moment he saw Zhou Jinyu's portrait just now!

This time it was a coincidence, if it is still like this the second time, then it must not be a coincidence!

"Then princess, what should we do now?" Wan Qiu asked.

"Az, he..." Wei Huanian looked at Wei Zrui, who was still staring at Zhou Jinyu's portrait, and called out firmly, but Wei Zrui still didn't respond at all.

Wei Hua sighed youngly, this child has been in this strange appearance since he was a child, she has already gotten used to it.

But Wan Qiu could see the excitement hidden under Wei Huanian's calm appearance.

In fact, Wanqiu can understand Wei Huanian very well. After all, at this time, someone who can communicate with the young master finally appeared. Their master waited for so long, and finally there was someone who could take the young master out of the world he thought he was. Lee pulled out.

Right now, Wei Zrui's little hand is tightly grasping the top of the scroll of the portrait, as if he is holding some kind of treasure, and he looks at it obsessively.

"That's all." Wei Huanian withdrew his gaze from his son, and said to Wan Qiu, "Since she refuses to come, let's go."

"Ah?" Wan Qiu was shocked: "Princess, you want to...!"

Wei Huanian just said: "Order to go down and get the carriage ready."

Wan Qiu didn't dare to delay, and replied: "Yes, I will do it right now, servant girl!"

At noon, Zhou Jinyu's second brother Zhou Zimu came back from the Ministry of Industry.

Zhou Zimu only said that he had received an errand from the Ministry of Industry, he was going to the countryside, and he was about to leave as soon as he came back to pack his clothes.As for what the errand was, he refused to say a word to Zhou Jinyu.

Zhou Jinyu thought about it, and then said: "Second brother, if you go to the countryside and encounter any troubles, please write to me in time, or send someone to call me, so I can help you."

Zhou Zimu has been idle in the Ministry of Industry because of Zhou Jinyu's vendetta with Li Wei'an, the son of the minister of the Ministry of Industry. This time he finally received an errand. I was worried about whether there was something wrong with his errand.

Otherwise, with the wretched style of the people in the Ministry of Industry, they have always excluded Zhou Zimu because of his talent and learning, so why did they only give him this job?

"Little Yu'er, stop thinking about it." Zhou Zimu smiled disapprovingly, "What are you worried about?"

Xiaoyu'er is Zhou Jinyu's nickname in his elder brother's mouth.When she first came to Zhou's house, her eldest brother and second brother treated her very well. Not only did she take her out of the house secretly without telling Liu's family, but they also gave her a kind baby name——

little fish.

"I'm worried that you will be plotted against." Zhou Jinyu suddenly became serious, and his usual sloppy look seemed to be deliberately made for others to see, and he said very seriously: "Second brother, do you want You know, there are not only honest gentlemen like you in this world, there are also many hypocrites, and they are far more terrifying than real villains."

Zhou Zimu knew that Zhou Jinyu cared about him, and said, "Even so, if I walk upright and sit upright, I won't be afraid."

"Of course I know you're not afraid." Zhou Jinyu said distressedly, "It's just that I'm afraid. I'm afraid that you will be implicated by me."

Zhou Zimu paused when he heard the words, and stopped packing his luggage.

He finally walked up to Zhou Jinyu, touched her head, and comforted her: "Little Yu'er, nothing will happen. Although this job is a bit difficult, I just went to watch it for a few days and then came back. Besides, This is a great thing that benefits the country and the people, and for the sake of the people, I won't make any mistakes. Don't think about it, okay?"

"In short..." Hearing what Zhou Zimu said, Zhou Jinyu didn't ask any more questions, but said: "Second brother, you must remember what I said. Don't resist everything, and send someone immediately if something happens. Come back to me."

"Okay, okay, just listen to Xiao Yu'er." Zhou Zimu's gentle face finally showed a smile, and he packed his bags and went to the Ministry of Industry.

According to what he meant, maybe it would take more than half a month after he left, Zhou Zimu said frankly, asking her to help him say hello to their mother Liu and Mrs. Zhou.

After Zhou Zimu left, the Zhou family returned to tranquility.

Zhou Jinyu is currently grounded, and she can't go anywhere.

Finally, I tricked the old lady to go to Qianlong Temple to worship the Bodhisattva last time, and then took her out of the mansion, but I can't let the old lady go to Qianlong Temple every day just because she wants to go out——

After all, the old lady is getting old, and her old arms and legs can't bear it.

Half an hour later, Zhou Jinyu decided to turn her grief and anger into appetite, so she ordered the small kitchen to cook more than [-] dishes she liked.

She lay powerlessly on the table waiting for the food to be served, but unconsciously, her mind turned to the woman she met at Qianlong Temple yesterday.

Which family is she from?If it's a daughter of a family in Beijing, why doesn't she have any impression?Could it be that she stayed in Qianlong Temple for so long that she didn't even know when such a beautiful girl appeared in Beijing?

When the little prince Sun Hao returned home this morning, she even asked Sun Hao specifically, which family's lady was the woman who brought her younger brother to worship Buddha at Qianlong Temple?

Sun Hao thought for a while, then shook his head, but couldn't think of anything.

Not only that, but he also insisted: "Brother Jinyu, are you stupid? Looking at the woman's age, she should be married. Thinking about it, the child must not be her 'brother', but her 'son' 'stop!"

Zhou Jinyu pouted: "What's wrong with my son?"

Sun Hao was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized: "Jinyu, don't be confused. If that woman really has a son and is married as a wife, then nothing will happen to you! Even if you have any charming thoughts , and it’s best to put it away.”

"I know, I know," Zhou Jinyu glared at her, "I have no interest in being a stepfather to someone else's son."

Sun Hao stared at her and asked back, "You really think so?"

Zhou Jinyu puffed out his chest with a guilty conscience: "That's natural!"

Even though he said that on his mouth, he still murmured in his heart.Isn't it just a son? With that woman's appearance and bearing, even if there is an extra son, she is willing to be a stepfather to that son happily.

However, the problem now is that she doesn't know the woman's surname or where she lives... Besides, there were many pilgrims in Qianlong Temple that day, so even if she sent someone to inquire, she might not be able to find out anything.

Ugh……

Sad people.

Zhou Jinyu didn't know which family the lady was from.

But even if you know which lady it is, as the young prince Sun Hao said, maybe that person has a husband...

Even if that person loses her husband, it is absolutely impossible for her as a woman.

Thinking of this, she sighed deeply again.

When the servants put the dishes on the table, they didn't even dare to breathe loudly when they saw her frowning expression.

Zhou Jinyu finally waited until all the dishes were served, when Zhou Xiaoshan suddenly rushed into the room and yelled, "Fourth Young Master! Fourth Young Master is not good!"

Zhou Xiaoshan ran all the way into the house panting heavily, and when he came to Zhou Jinyu, he stared at Zhou Jinyu for a long time with a very strange look, his face turned red and he couldn't say a word.

Zhou Jinyu was so stared at by him that he felt hairy in his heart, and asked, "What's wrong?"

Zhou Xiaoshan couldn't articulate what he said in a hurry: "Fourth...fourth son, it's not good! There is a woman who brought her son and came to see you!"

"Hmm..." Zhou Jinyu was originally casual, but suddenly he stared: "Huh? What!"

She stuffed a chicken leg halfway into her mouth, almost choked and stuck it in her throat.

After she finally took a sip of tea to calm her breath, she asked with difficulty: "Who? What is it? Liar, it must be that bastard liar! Let them go, if you don't go, report to the official to ask them to go!"

After Zhou Jinyu finished speaking in one breath, she saw Zhou Xiaoshan staring at her like he was looking at a heartbroken man.Zhou Jinyu glared at him, and scolded: "Zhou Xiaoshan! Don't look at me with the look of 'the woman I raised outside is now bringing her son to the door'! I have never done it!"

Zhou Xiaoshan coughed softly: "Hey, fourth young master, you should go and have a look quickly, and judging by their attire, they don't look like liars."

"Liars never dress themselves up like liars, so you need me to teach you?" Zhou Jinyu raised his eyebrows.

"Really not!" Zhou Xiaoshan said in embarrassment: "Anyway, you should go and see, Fourth Young Master! The woman's maid said that she just met you yesterday, and she seems to be acquainted. The guard at the gate really dare not let them go without authorization. Come in, this is what I have told you, let me come to you."

Zhou Jinyu frowned: "Where are they?"

"Just waiting outside the gate of the mansion!"

"Understood." Zhou Jinyu responded casually, wondering in his heart, did he meet yesterday?Now this deceitful liar doesn't even make a draft when he comes out.She was clearly in Qianlong Temple yesterday, so where did the women and children come from?

and many more……

wrong……

women and children?Could it be...

Thinking of this, she ran out of the house.

Zhou Xiaoshan didn't understand why he looked at Zhou Jinyu's anxious appearance running wildly, and thought to himself: there won't be a fourth lady and a young master in the house out of thin air, right?

After a while, Zhou Jinyu went around the garden, passed through the outer hall, and went straight to the gate of the mansion from the east courtyard.

From a distance, a magnificent carriage was parked in front of the mansion, and under the carriage, a woman in pink stood gracefully.

Seeing her coming out, the man was startled for a moment in his originally silent eyes, and then returned to his calm and unwavering look.

At this time, a gust of spring breeze swept across her face, and the spring breeze rolled up the small weeds on the side of the road. The figure of the little weeds trembled a few times following the trajectory of the wind.

The fragrance of orchids from the woman's body rushed to her face, and her heart also trembled a few times.

Just now she was still thinking about the lady's name and where she lived.

Now it's delivered to your door.

Could this be the legendary fate?

Looking down, the woman is holding the little bun she saw in Qianlong Temple last time, the little bun's face is flushed, probably because he stood in the wind for too long and was very cold.

The moment Xiao Baozi saw her, he broke free from the woman's embrace, and rushed towards her clumsily.

She was afraid that Xiao Baozi would fall, so she instinctively knelt down to catch him.

With a crashing sound, the soft little bun slammed into her arms with a 'poof', hitting her full.

"Fourth young master, do you know this mother and daughter?" Zhou Xiaoshan asked in surprise after following her.

"I know, of course I know." She replied while rubbing Xiao Baozi's soft head.

Zhou Xiaoshan: "..."

It's over, I'm afraid there will really be an extra fourth lady and young master in the mansion!
