Chapter 143 The Empress Dowager Came to Recognize Relatives
It had been a long time since she heard someone say "I protect you" to her. These words came from the mouth of this thin and frail little girl in her arms, which made the Queen Mother feel particularly valuable and credible.
.
Although everyone did not hear clearly what the Queen Mother and Fu Mingyu were talking about, looking at the grandfather and grandson hugging each other tightly, the eyes of everyone present could not help but become astringent.
"Auntie." Mrs. Wang came to her senses first, walked to the two grandparents, knelt down and said, "Ayu hasn't finished putting on her makeup yet!" Fu Mingyu had only combed her hair all morning.
There is still makeup on the face that needs to be painted. The time is passing by little by little. Wang is afraid that the time will be missed, so she reminds her.
Duke Dingguo's palace was well prepared and had checked all the time.
"Look, this person gets easily excited when he gets old." After hearing this, the Queen Mother let go of Fu Mingyu and smiled self-deprecatingly, "Hurry up and put on makeup." She looked at Fu Mingyu carefully again, "My little girl,
She looks so beautiful even without makeup!”
The more she looked at her, the more reluctant she became! In the past, the Queen Mother didn't think anything of it. She just thought that the girl should get married when she was older, and since there were King Chen and the Queen watching eagerly, it would be a good thing for Fu Mingyu to marry into the Dingguo Palace as soon as possible.
But now the Queen Mother is really reluctant to let go of that brat Qin Rui!
However, when she thought about it, Qin Rui would leave as soon as she got married and go to Mobei to take up her post. The Queen Mother's eyebrows frowned slightly. Today was a big day, and she didn't want to mention such irrelevant things, so as not to spoil the fun.
After letting Xinrui and Ziyan help Fu Mingyu go back, the Queen Mother looked at Cheng Xiuxiu.
"I heard that you have given birth to a grandson for the Fu family?" the Queen Mother asked kindly.
Cheng Xiuxiu didn't expect that the Queen Mother would call her name, so she quickly stood up and knelt down, "Return to the Queen Mother, yes."
"As I said, today is a happy event, and I only have my aunt at home today." The Queen Mother smiled. "Where is the child? Can you bring it to me, an old woman, to see?"
The Queen Mother has already spoken, who dares to say no! Cheng Xiuxiu hurriedly went to her yard to find the child. When Mrs. Cheng heard that the Queen Mother wanted to see her grandson, she smiled crookedly. A merchant family like theirs, no matter how rich they were,
, he is also a lower class person in the imperial city, originally
It is already a great blessing for my daughter to marry into a family like the Fu family, and she also received a sixth-grade imperial title. Although this grade is considered very low among the noble ladies in the capital, among the merchants,
Zhongna also exists like the stars and the moon.
"But by coincidence, Bao'er has just woken up and has already been fed. You can take it to the Queen Mother to see." Mrs. Cheng quickly picked up the child from the bed and handed it to Cheng Xiuxiu.
"Mom, come with me." Cheng Xiuxiu said to her mother while holding the child.
"Me? I don't dare!" She found it difficult to meet a county magistrate, let alone the Queen Mother! Just thinking about it made her calves cramp.
"Go ahead. The Queen Mother wants to see Bao'er because she wants to promote our family." Cheng Xiuxiu thought for a while and said, "As long as you don't talk nonsense, the Queen Mother will definitely not blame you if she is happy today. The Queen Mother has said that she will be called her by all names today.
My aunt, you should also shout along with me, don’t make a mistake.”
After hearing what her daughter said, Cheng's mother thought it made sense, so she quickly tidied up her appearance. She was here to have a wedding banquet today. Everyone was dressed carefully and would not be rude when meeting the Queen Mother.
The mother and daughter brought Dabao to the front of the Queen Mother. Mother Cheng knelt down and bowed politely. The Queen Mother smiled and asked Grandma Sun to help her up, "This is my in-laws' grandma. It's our first time meeting her."
The Queen Mother gave it to Grandma Sun
With a look from Grandma, Grandma Sun understood and quickly took out a pair of bracelets she had prepared in advance and handed them to Mother Cheng, "Today, the Ai family is here to recognize their relatives. This is a meeting gift. Grandma, please accept it."
The Queen Mother smiled.
Cheng's mother was flattered and looked at her daughter in disbelief. Cheng Xiuxiu gave her a look, but she quickly withdrew it, "Oh, how can this be so good? I came to have a drink today, and I brought a mouth.
But what gift should I give to my aunt?" Cheng's mother couldn't help but say when she was happy.
When she said this, everyone was...Mother Cheng was so frightened after she said it. How did she see everyone's expressions? Did she say something wrong?
The Queen Mother laughed heartily, "Then you can make up for it later!"
Cheng Xiuxiu and Cheng's mother immediately breathed a sigh of relief, both of them were overjoyed, "I will definitely make up for it!" Cheng's mother said quickly! Cheng's mother was also a transparent person, knowing that the Queen Mother said this, and she would have to interact with the Cheng family in the future.
Although she didn't know why the Queen Mother did this, it was a great thing!
Cheng Xiuxiu understood that the Queen Mother was thanking her for helping Fu Mingyu. It seemed that the Queen Mother already knew that she gave Zhao Mingyu this talent to Fu Mingyu!
The Queen Mother took over Dabao, who was still in his infancy. Dabao was also trying his best. With so many people around here, he didn't cry or fuss. He just stared with a pair of Wududi eyes and opened his little mouth innocently, so cute.
It was so terrible that it immediately melted the Queen Mother's heart.
"Can you give me a name?" the Queen Mother asked.
"Back to my aunt, I haven't done that yet." The child's father quickly said, clasping his fists.
"As a scholar, is it difficult for you to choose a name?" the Queen Mother asked jokingly.
"My aunt didn't know, but the two of them spent the whole night looking through books together but couldn't find any good ones. Then they said they didn't want to do it anymore and just let it go!" Wang said with a smile.
"Otherwise, please ask my aunt to give me a name." Fu Yucheng said upon seeing this.
The Queen Mother looked at everyone and smiled, "Then the Ai family has grown old for once. What is the rank now?"
"According to the genealogy, he should be a calligrapher," Fu Yucheng said.
"Then it's called Xiu Yuan. Fu Xiu Yuan is the fate that has been cultivated." The Queen Mother smiled and said, "How do you like it?"
Everyone laughed immediately. This name is really good! It sounds easy to pronounce and has a good meaning!
"Just listen to my aunt, it's called Xiuyuan!" Fu Yucheng said with a smile.
The child ate and fell asleep. Perhaps he felt that it was not interesting, so he fell asleep directly in the Queen Mother's arms. Everyone then lowered their voices, and the Queen Mother quickly handed the child to Mrs. Cheng, "Don't disturb him. Take him back."
Bar!"
Mother Cheng was so happy that she carefully took the child from the hands of the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother asked Nanny Sun to give the child a greeting gift, which was a piece of crystal clear jade. Mother Cheng was so happy that she couldn't close her mouth.
The Empress Dowager asked people from the Lu family to talk again, which also made the Lu family people very happy. They were people in the world, let alone the Queen Mother, even meeting an official found it difficult, but now the Lu family themselves
I also feel afraid that in the future they will no longer be pure people in the world.
