"Ms. Zhen, you're finally here. Come and sit down next to me."
Ye Zhenzhen was warmly greeted by Princess Wei as soon as she came up. She greeted the ladies and ladies at the table along the way. Before she could reach the table, she was robbed by the Fourth Young Master Zhou Xuchen on the way.
"Mrs. Ning Guo's greeting."
Zhou Xuchen asked An very politely, and then asked expectantly: "Can I take away my two brothers? Don't worry, I will take good care of them!"
The Fourth Young Master straightened his chest proudly, as if he was a mature adult.
He is half a year younger than Cui Zhiming, but he always likes to call himself brother, which is really fun.
Ye Zhenzhen held back her laughter and solemnly handed the two children over to him: "Then I'll leave it to the Fourth Young Master."
Zhou Xuchen suddenly felt a sense of responsibility and responsibility, and once again made a serious promise, he took Cui Zhiduan and Cui Zhiming back to his playmates.
As for what games to play and whether they are dangerous, Ye Zhenzhen doesn't need to worry. With so many children here, Princess Wei will arrange for someone to take care of them.
"Have you been robbed by my local bully? Every time that child comes out to play, he is as happy as a monkey. He even forgets all the rules."
Princess Wei smiled brightly and asked Ye Zhenzhen to sit down next to her, and talked to her about her son affectionately.
Ye Zhenzhen shook her head: "Whose family is this? These kids are taking advantage of the fact that it's a holiday, and adults are tolerant to them, so they try their best to show off."
This topic resonated with many ladies present and joined the topic one after another. The young ladies were not worried about the topic. They had already discussed Mrs. Ning Guo’s clothing and accessories enthusiastically and studied the recent fashion in the capital. The ladies of Yongshan Hall, represented by Zhao Yuxuan,
This is the main target of everyone’s questioning.
Zhao Yuxuan said: "As we all know, Mrs. Ning Guo's clothes and accessories were all designed by Uncle Jing Ning. I don't know the rest, but I do know the workshop where they were made. Madam had mentioned to us before that it was from Dongshi.
Zhuang's workshop, their craftsmanship has always been good."
"That's true. It's just that it's too difficult to make an appointment at Zhuang's workshop. I made an appointment with Zhuang's master in October last year to make a golden step for me, but it's not my turn yet."
"I made an appointment earlier than you, and I heard it's already being built."
"I envy you so much. I can't make an appointment at all."
…
Everyone turned away while chatting, and began to discuss which other outstanding workshops there are in the capital, which workshop has poor craftsmanship, and which one has the most innovative and beautiful styles...
The topic among the ladies also wandered to the upcoming recruitment conference.
Mrs. Qin Yue Niang took the initiative and said: "Ms. Zhen, I also have many shops under my name. I don't know if you still need them. If it's not enough, ask my steward to come and join in."
Others responded one after another, hoping to contribute to charity.
Ye Zhenzhen nodded repeatedly: "The more businesses that settle in, the wider the choices for students will be. Naturally, the more, the better."
Princess Wei held her hands and smiled: "It's great that you have such a heart. On behalf of the students of Salesian Academy, I would like to thank you for your support."
Everyone was humble and praised Princess Wei and Ye Zhenzhen in unison, and the banquet turned into a praise scene again.
Although it was a banquet for eating, drinking and having fun, it was also a very important social occasion. After the banquet, a lot of energy was consumed. Fortunately, Ye Zhenzhen's status was not what it used to be, so she could handle it much easier than before.
There is no curfew during the Lantern Festival, and the carnival can last all night long. As the mother of a child, Ye Zhenzhen does not have this right to be free. After the child became sleepy, she had to ask Princess Wei to resign.
Princess Wei persuaded her to stay: "There is a private room upstairs, so let Zhi Duan sleep in it."
"This kid doesn't know his bed. He can't sleep in an outside bed, and he doesn't go back at night. My mother-in-law should be worried."
Princess Wei did not continue to persuade her to stay, and asked someone to notify Uncle Jing Ning downstairs. Therefore, when Ye Zhenzhen went down with her sleepy son, Cui Weizhen was already waiting there.
"Asleep?"
Cui Weizhen took his son and hugged him. The smell of alcohol on his body made Cui Zhiduan frown slightly. Ye Zhenzhen looked at him disapprovingly: "Why did you drink so much?"
Cui Weizhen shook his head: "I didn't drink much. The maid just served me poorly and poured wine on my clothes."
No wonder it smells so heavy of alcohol.
Ye Zhenzhen knew what was going on after a moment's thought. She looked at Cui Zhiming next to her and didn't say anything more.
The boatman sent them to the shore. Qiu Wu, Zhou Wu and others had already come back and were waiting for them. Even the frame of the carriage was ready, which saved a lot of effort.
"You can ride with us in the car."
This time Cui Weizhen did not refuse, and carried Cui Zhi into the carriage. Ye Zhenzhen wanted to take over, but he shook his head and refused: "I don't mind, you can rest for a while, it will take a long time to go back."
Isn't that right? Even when we were approaching Zi, the streets were still full of people and the noise was no less noisy than before. It was not easy at all to get back home unimpeded.
Ye Zhenzhen had no choice but to nod in agreement and hugged Cui Zhiming, who had already begun to doze off: "Let's sleep against my aunt for a while."
Cui Zhiming was extremely sleepy and fell into a deep sleep as soon as he leaned on his aunt's shoulder. Ye Zhenzhen was infected with sleepiness, and her head fell on Cui Weizhen's shoulder, and she fell asleep soon after.
Cui Weizhen held his son who was sleeping on his lap with one hand, and could still support Ye Zhenzhen with the other hand. Although he was very powerful, Qiu Wu felt tired for him and wanted to help hold the young man. Cui Weizhen was silent
He shook his head and refused, his eyes falling on Cui Zhiming next to him.
Ye Zhenzhen originally held him in her arms, but now because she fell asleep, the strength in her hands gradually loosened. Cui Zhiming was now able to lean on her steadily, relying on his smooth handlebar driving skills.
Qiu Wu understood immediately and hurried over to take over Madam's work.
After stopping and stopping along the way, it took more than half an hour to get back to the uncle's house.
As expected, Aunt Cui was still awake. Cui Weizhen and Ye Zhenzhen settled the two children before going to pay her respects. As a matter of course, they received a bowl of Love Brand Sobering Up Soup.
Ye Zhenzhen was a little relieved from the alcohol, and she silently complained that it was a good thing she drank it in front of her mother, otherwise she would have to do everything possible to coax someone to drink the sobering soup after she went back, unless of course he was drunk.
Cui Weizhen seemed to know what she was thinking, and glanced at her lightly. Ye Zhenzhen instinctively felt guilty, but then she thought about it, how guilty she was! He was the one who should have felt guilty!
So she sat upright, with a serious look on her face, and slumped out of the courtroom: "Tell me honestly, what happened at the banquet? Why did a woman throw herself into your arms? Did you keep the person by your side to serve you?
?”
If not, why would you pour wine on yourself?
Cui Weizhen raised his eyebrows and deliberately refused to answer her question, asking an irrelevant topic: "Do you want to take a shower and change clothes?"
Ye Zhenzhen: "...yes."
The servants who were well prepared brought water in, and Ye Zhenzhen had no choice but to undress and take a bath in depression. By the time she finished washing, Cui Weizhen was already half lying on the bedside reading a book.
"Don't read at night, it will hurt your eyes."
Ye Zhenzhen stepped forward and took away the book from his hand without any politeness. If she had myopia, she wouldn't have the ability to open an eye for him.
She couldn't help but feel curious and asked: "After reading books for so many years, have you ever felt that your eyesight is blurry and you can't see clearly?"
Cui Weizhen replied: "I practice archery every day, and nine times out of ten I can hit the tenth ring."
"Oh, you have such nice eyes."
How can it be embarrassing for later generations of students to still have such good eyesight after so many years of burning the midnight oil? She didn’t believe that everyone was so blessed: “I heard that it is easy to get eye diseases by burning the midnight oil. Do you have any such examples around you?”
"Yes, Senior Brother Wang is suffering from an eye disease and can only rely on acupuncture for treatment."
It’s about the Master’s son Wang Yuxuan.
Now that Wang Yuxuan is still working as a Hanlin in the Hanlin Academy, dealing with various documents all day long, his myopia must have become deeper.
How pitiful.
Ye Zhenzhen thought to herself, it seems that in the future, she can add some eye-catching food to her relationship with the Wang family.
Ye Zhenzhen satisfied her curiosity and was about to get back to business when she saw Cui Weizhen holding a towel to wipe her hair and said to her: "Come here, I will wipe your hair."
She didn't wash her hair! She touched the ends of her hair belatedly and found that it was indeed wet. It must have been accidentally splashed while taking a shower.
Usually when taking a bath, Ye Zhenzhen would tie up her hair, but because her hair is too long, it is very difficult. If you are not careful, it will get wet, which is very troublesome.
She couldn't help but sigh from the bottom of her heart: "I really want to cut my hair."
"no."
Cui Weizhen, who was wiping his hair, objected without hesitation: "The hair and skin of your body are protected by your parents and cannot be damaged easily."
Ye Zhenzhen: "..." She knew it.
In the past, when she watched costume TV dramas, she always felt that the actresses' hairstyles were too exaggerated. It wasn't until she traveled through time that she realized that this was a true portrayal of ancient women. Their buns did not require props and they could be styled in various styles.
Various hairstyles.
Of course, ancient people also had a mid-life crisis. They lost their hair in middle age and wanted to take care of their hair. Many noble ladies secretly bought wigs and woven them into their own hairstyles. This was already a tacit secret among noble ladies.
Ye Zhenzhen currently has no worries about hair loss. Her hair is thick and dense. When spread out, it looks like a piece of fine silk. There are no split ends or dryness. This is the result of her strict care. Of course, this is all done by her maid.
I really can't handle such long hair.
No wonder the ancient holiday was called Xiu Mu. It’s not easy to take care of such long hair, and it doesn’t take a whole day.
Ye Zhenzhen was thinking about random things, Cui Weizhen glanced at her, touched the ends of her hair that were already dry, and then let go: "That's it."
Ye Zhenzhen touched her precious hair. After it was taken care of, she no longer had any thoughts of cutting it.
That’s right, it’s so willful!
Between trouble and beauty, of course I choose the latter!
