Mrs. Su was wearing a deep purple Baifu Liuyun double-breasted blouse, paired with a deep red multicolored pleated skirt. Her gray hair was tied into a high bun, with a red and gold silk phoenix hairpin inserted in it. Her face was rosy and her eyebrows were kind.
Before seeing her, Mingruo came to see her with the mentality of completing the task. But she was so protective and loving towards him, which made Mingruo feel very warm.
Mingruo didn't want her to worry, so he had to make up lies: "The prince suffered some cold at the Yuexi Palace banquet and has been recuperating. The palace closed the door to thank guests, and the emperor sent people from heaven and earth...
Therefore, I haven’t invited my grandma to come over to see you, for fear that she might get worse. The prince is getting well these days, so he will accompany me to see you and grandpa."
"I feel relieved knowing that you are fine." Mrs. Su took Mingruo's hand and looked at her carefully, "Qiongfang, look, Ruo'er is exactly the same as my Yuqing."
"It seems similar, but the princess is more beautiful than Yuqing." Luo Shi said with a smile.
"Hey...my Yuqing was only one year older than Ruo'er when she married to Nanrong. She was beyond the reach of our Su family in Nanrong..." Mrs. Su touched Mingruo's head lovingly, "Now Ruo'er
When she comes back, she must be protected.
Ruo'er, these are your second aunt, third aunt and fourth aunt. Your eldest aunt, uncle and two cousins are stationed at the border and won't be back until the end of the year."
"Oh." Mingruo greeted the three aunts one by one.
The three ladies quickly returned the gift: "Princess, please get up quickly."
"My aunts just call me Mingruo." Mingruo feels that the atmosphere in the Su family is very good and they treat people sincerely.
"Old madam, several young masters Sun have come to pay homage to the princess." Nanny Ji came in with a smile to announce.
"Let them come in." The old lady pulled Mingruo to sit next to her.
I saw Mother Ji quickly bringing five young people in, and the old lady began to introduce them one by one: "This is your third cousin Su Ze and your fifth cousin Su Qin from your second uncle's family. This is your fourth cousin Su from your third uncle's family."
You, this is your fourth cousin's sixth cousin Su Yan, your seventh cousin... No, Ruo'er's birthday is in the first month... Yuan'er's birthday is in March, this is your cousin Su Yuan."
"Ah!" Su Yuan immediately quit, "Why do I have no sister!"
"Because you ran too slow." Su Yan smiled and gave his brother a slap in the face.
Mingruo looked at the five cousins. They all had thick eyebrows, big eyes and tall postures. The fourth cousin Su You was more handsome, more like his third aunt. In modern times, it would be perfect for these people to form a boy band.
Mingruo blinked and asked with some confusion: "Grandma...doesn't she have any cousins?"
"Hmph, you want cousins, and I also want a granddaughter!" Madam Su snorted, "But your four uncles didn't live up to expectations, so you gave me seven boys and not a single granddaughter!"
"..." Mingruo thought of seven gourd babies.
"It's better now. The old lady finally has her granddaughter Cheng Huan as her baby." Mrs. Su smiled very satisfied.
"Yes, grandma, we also have a sister, hahaha..."
Su Yuan looked at his brothers with resentment in his eyes. Normally, everyone didn't have a sister, but now he didn't. Then, he looked at his mother with resentment.
Mingruo was amused. Rare things are more valuable. The Su family, which has seven gourd brothers, is particularly rare in girls.
Mrs. Su wanted to stay for Ming Ruo to have a meal at the house, so the ladies went to make arrangements separately. Only the grandfather and grandson were left in the house, talking to each other.
"How is Prince Yun treating you?" Mrs. Su's eyes were full of worry, not to mention that Prince Yun was not in good health.
Even in the past, Prince Yun was not a good candidate for a husband. He had an unstable temper. He was favored by the Supreme Emperor since he was a child. When he grew up, he held a heavy army and made many military exploits... She had heard from far away in the border towns that it was difficult to offend Prince Yun.
Those who are happy will either die or be injured. Even Mei Ji, who was sent into the palace by the Queen Mother, will be killed at will.
"Your Majesty is very good." As an employer, Si Haochen is very good - she provides food and accommodation, no salary arrears, a steady stream of medicinal materials for her pharmaceutical business, and regular benefits... Although this kind of 'goodness' may not be the same as Su's.
The old lady's expectations were different, but Mingruo herself was very satisfied.
"His heart disease..." Mrs. Su sighed, "I have asked your uncle to look for famous doctors in the border town. It is close to Xikang and there are some witch doctors who can treat difficult and complicated diseases."
"Grandma, don't worry too much. Your Majesty is already much better." Mingruo didn't want the old lady to worry, nor would she talk about Si Haochen's condition with anyone. Protecting the patient's privacy is a doctor's basic ethics.
"That's good." Mrs. Su didn't want to talk about these bad things, so she chatted about some household matters.
"I'm here to see Ruo'er!" A loud voice boomed in the yard.
"Your grandfather is here." Mrs. Su said with a serious face, "What are you doing with such a loud voice? What should I do if you scare Ruo'er!"
"Oh oh oh, please keep your voice down." The majestic Duke Jingguo didn't look dignified at all in front of his old wife.
Duke Jingguo looked at Mingruo's eyes and his eyes were red, and his voice was choked: "Well... it's like Yuqing."
"Grandpa..." Seeing a face so similar to her grandfather's, Mingruo really wanted to cry.
"Ruoer, be good..." Duke Jingguo stretched out his big palm and stroked Mingruo's head.
"Why are you here? Aren't you accompanying Prince Yun?" Mrs. Su asked.
"It's enough for the two of them to accompany me." Duke Jingguo was a little embarrassed, "A few people are sitting in the main hall, staring at each other..."
"Pfft..." Mingruo could completely imagine that the main hall was like time standing still.
Si Haochen definitely set an example by cherishing his words like gold. Sometimes when he asked Bai Shen to do things, he always made eye contact. As for other people, if he could say two words, he would never say three.
"Just arrange a room for him and let him rest. The prince doesn't need anyone to accompany him." Mingruo decided to save his bored uncles.
"The Yanbo Pavilion where your mother lived before leaving the pavilion has been cleaned up for you to rest. Let Prince Yun go there." Mrs. Su said.
"I'll accompany the prince. I also want to see the mother-in-law's yard."
"Let Aunt Ji take you there."
Mingruo walked into the front hall, and as expected, the room was silent. The three uncles sat upright, and Si Haochen leaned in the wheelchair bored.
Ming Ruo greeted his uncles first, and then pushed Si Haochen to Yanbo Pavilion. The overall style of the Duke of Jingguo's palace is simple and generous. However, there are small bridges and flowing water in Yanbo Pavilion. At first glance, it looks like a girl, but not
It is hard to tell that Duke Jingguo dotes on this daughter very much.
Mingruo saw a tea seat in the flower hall and pushed Si Haochen over. Si Haochen was very satisfied with Mingruo's choice. He stood up from the wheelchair and sat leisurely on the futon, boiling water and making tea.
"It's so boring for you to sit there and not talk..." Mingruo held her cheek with her hand.
