Chapter 128 Rumors
Xu Nuanwen could see clearly, so what she said could also be to the point.

After hearing what she said, Dong Shu and Mrs. Xu took it to heart and prepared to convey what she said to Xu Shiqiu.

At this moment in the front yard, Xu Shiqiu also briefly mentioned his recent situation to Ye Jingxing.

What Xu Nuanwen could think of, Ye Jingxing could naturally think of.

But that person was his father after all, he didn't know how to speak.

Xu Shiqiu felt something was wrong with his brother-in-law, but before he had time to think deeply, Ye Shuo had already said: "Uncle San, can Liu Ze and I join the army with you tomorrow?"

Hearing Ye Shuo's words, Ye Jingxing just wanted him not to cause trouble for Xu Shiqiu, but Xu Shiqiu said first: "I was planning to talk to you about this matter today. It is not impossible for you and Liu Ze to go to the military camp, but you are still young." If you are too young, the training must be halved. On weekdays, when you are free, just follow me and learn. If you want to, then go, if you don’t want to, just wait for another two years."

Xu Shiqiu naturally didn't think about letting Ye Shuo and Liu Ze start as ordinary soldiers. Their identities are here, and it is not suitable for them to start as ordinary soldiers.

But it's not appropriate to directly assign official positions to them like this, after all, their age is right, Ye Shuo is fine, he practiced martial arts since childhood, but Liu Ze is not.

Although they had status, Xu Shiqiu also had to consider other people in the barracks.

You can take special care of it, but it is absolutely impossible to give an official position as soon as you come.

Ye Shuo originally wanted to say, "No need to take special care of the third uncle", but after hearing Xu Shiqiu's words, Ye Jingxing, who knew his son's temperament, couldn't help but looked at Ye Shuo and said, "If you don't want to, don't go."

As soon as Ye Jingxing opened his mouth, Ye Shuo still had no intention of haggling, and hurriedly nodded at Xu Shiqiu, "Okay, I'll go to Liu Ze later and tell him about it."

Ye Shuo would say that, naturally because the Xu family's post today also sent a copy to Liu Fang'er of the Liu family.

After all, Liu Fang'er was the original wife's daughter, and Liu Ze had informed her in advance, so she was not surprised after receiving the post from Xu's family.

It's just that the Liu family was very surprised why the Xu family would give Liu Fang'er a post, and the Xu family didn't have a girl similar to her age.

But even though the Liu family didn't understand, Liu Ze accompanied Liu Fang'er to Xu's house that day.

There were more and more guests at home, and Dong Shu also walked out of the hall of the main courtyard. Accompanied by Xu Nuanwen, she greeted the ladies who came.

Although the Zhang family brought Zhang Yiran here today, they also brought another girl from the Zhang family, who is Zhang Yiran's niece according to her seniority.

Seeing another daughter of the Zhang family, Dong Shu knew that the sister-in-law had taken a fancy to this girl.

Zhang Yiran apologized to Dong Shu as soon as she came. Dong Shu could see that she didn't really want to apologize, but the two families were related after all, and Dong Shu didn't want her aunt to make things difficult, so she naturally forgave Zhang Yiran.

Zhang Yiran was suppressed by the old lady Zhang, no matter how much unhappiness she felt in her heart, she couldn't express it.

Because after discussing with Concubine De, the Zhang family has already started to arrange a marriage for her, and the old lady Zhang has already said that if she causes trouble again, she will marry far away.

The Zhang family can't keep her daughter who caused trouble for the Zhang family like her!
Zhang Yiran hated the Xu family to the core, but no matter how unhappy she felt, she could only endure it until the marriage was settled.

After the Zhang family arrived, other people also arrived one after another.

Although Liu Fang'er came with Liu Ze, but after Liu Ze came to greet Mrs. Xu, he went to the front yard, leaving Liu Fang'er here alone.

When Dong Shu turned her head, she saw Liu Fang'er standing aside alone.

She ordered Ling Xiang to invite Liu Fang'er, then looked at her and said, "But boring? Let the young lady of the Jiang family play with you later."

Xu Yanzhu led Jiang Han to greet Mrs. Xu before, but now she just came to see Third Aunt, and heard her words.

"Whose girl is this, she looks really good." Xu Yanzhu was generous, and after approaching Liu Fang'er, he couldn't help but look at her again.

Liu Fang'er is actually not good-looking, but she has the kind of face that makes people feel comfortable at first glance.

At this time Liu Fang'er heard Xu Yanzhu's words and knew that she was Ye Shuo's cousin, so she couldn't help but blush.

Dong Shu also didn't expect Xu Yanzhu to be able to tease others, so she suppressed a smile and said to Xu Yanzhu, "I have to entertain other guests, Yanzhu, please accompany Miss Liu."

"Third Aunt, don't worry, I will take good care of Miss Liu." Xu Yanzhu knew that Ye Shuo and Liu Fang'er were not engaged yet, and he couldn't do too much, so after hearing Dong Shu's words, he immediately restrained himself.

After Dong Shu made sure that Liu Fang'er was accompanied, she continued to entertain other guests.

The Xu family's yard is very large. After a period of maintenance, the scenery is not bad. The most surprising thing is the Xu family's food.

When the Xu family returned to Beijing, they brought a lot of seafood such as dried fish and shrimp that were only available in Xiahe Village. After being cooked by the Xu family's chef, the taste naturally improved to a higher level.

Today's Xu family's banquet was meant to connect with each other, and it was also for Yuan Xi to come out to meet people.

After all, Yuan Xi is the only heir of the third family of the Xu family, and Dong Shu is favored by the queen, so she is praised non-stop when she appears.

Xu Nuanwen's identities are different. Apart from introducing Dong Shu at the beginning, Dong Shu is almost the only one who has contact with the female family members of each family.

Dong Shu was busy for most of the day, and she didn't see Jiang Han until the banquet was almost over.

For some reason, the first time she saw Jiang Han, Dong Shu had a strange feeling. She always felt that the way Jiang Han looked at her was very strange.

And under such eyes, Jiang Han's eyes still had a trace of consideration, but Dong Shu didn't notice it.

Thinking of the identities of the two, Dong Shu didn't care about the way Jiang Han looked at her, but she still wanted to find an opportunity to tell Xu Shiqiu about it.

After the banquet was over and everyone was satisfied and left, Dong Shu told Xu Shiqiu what Xu Nuanwen said today.

As soon as Xu Shiqiu heard Dong Shu's words, he realized why he had such an expression when he told the matter to his brother-in-law today.

"Mistress, you don't need to worry. I will think about it carefully." After saying this, Xu Shiqiu took the initiative to say: "Since the banquet has already been held, when will Madam take Niang and Yuan Xi to Zhuangzi to escape the summer heat?"

Dong Shu was just about to talk about what happened when she met Jiang Han today, but she heard Xu Shiqiu's words again.

After shaking her head with a smile, she said: "The house will be cleaned up for two days, and then I will let someone choose a day to go to Zhuangzi." Not many.

What's more, Dong Shu heard Doctor Du say that it is not good to use too much ice, so she has long thought of going to Zhuangzi to escape the summer heat.

When Xu Shiqiu heard Dong Shu's words, he immediately smiled and said, "There's nothing to clean up. I've already chosen a date, and the day after tomorrow will be fine. The lady will rest at home tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow will go to the palace to see the queen, and the day after tomorrow can go to Zhuangzi. "

Seeing that Xu Shiqiu had arranged everything, Dong Shu could only nod in agreement with his arrangement.

After talking about this matter, Dong Shu opened her mouth to mention what she met Jiang Han today.

"Although Jiang Han is only Yanzhu's husband-in-law, and there are some problems in their relationship, why does this Jiang Han look at me like this?"

Dong Shu couldn't figure it out, so she naturally told Xu Shiqiu to think about it.

In fact, Xu Shiqiu had remembered this matter before, but recently he had too many things to do, so he forgot it for a while.

Now hearing Dong Shu mentioning this matter again, he took the initiative to say: "Don't worry, lady, I will arrange someone to check Jiang Han for my husband."

When Xu Shiqiu said this, he didn't take this matter to heart, but felt that Jiang Han didn't treat them as elders.

Because the weather was getting hotter day by day, Dong Shu stayed at home for a rest the next day, but she did not forget to ask Nanny Yan to send a letter to the palace, saying that she would enter the palace tomorrow to greet the queen.

When the queen learned that Dong Shu was coming to see her, she was naturally in a very good mood, not to mention that Dong Shu came very early that day, and stayed with her in the palace for a long time, and was not ready to go back until the palace gate was about to be locked.

However, when Dong Shu came, she told the queen that she would leave the capital tomorrow to escape the summer heat at Zhuangzi in the suburbs.

"This time you come to the palace to see me. I don't know how long you will have to wait until the next time we meet." The queen looked at Dong Shu reluctantly, and while talking, she ordered Mother Su to get the gift she wanted to give to Dong Shu. reward.

"Your Majesty has already given you many rewards." Dong Shu hurriedly said this after hearing what the Queen said.

Hearing her words, the empress immediately suppressed a smile and said, "Others are trying their best to get things from me, but you are not like them at all, and you even despise me for giving you too many things."

When Dong Shu heard the queen's words, her ears turned red with embarrassment, "The things that the empress rewards are all excellent, but I regard the empress as an elder and respect it, and the empress gives me so many rewards every time, it seems that I do it on purpose." Close to the empress."

Dong Shu said this today because Mrs. Zhang casually mentioned something to Mrs. Xu when the family held a banquet the day before yesterday.

Yesterday, Mrs. Xu learned that Dong Shu was going to enter the palace today, so she told Dong Shu that if the queen wanted to reward her again, she would say these words.

The queen didn't know that Mrs. Xu had mentioned Dong Shu in advance. Now that she heard Dong Shu's words, she couldn't help but patted Dong Shu's hand and said, "I understand your feelings for me. How long will I stay in this deep palace?" After ten years, it is naturally possible to tell whether it is true or false." After saying this, the queen glanced at Dong Shu and continued: "Don't worry, you can just carry on with what I give you in the future, don't worry about it." Caring about what other people say."

The queen said so, but she thought in her heart that someone would investigate later. Since Dong Shu said these words, it must be because of some rumors outside the palace.

Moreover, the queen knew Dong Shu's temperament very well. She felt that Dong Shu's rejection of her reward today must be because she was told by Mrs. Xu.

What's more, the queen didn't expect, after all, in her heart, Dong Shu is very innocent.

Dong Shu didn't understand what the queen meant, but she finally nodded obediently and left the palace with the reward given by the queen.

After Dong Shu returned home, she went directly to the main courtyard and told Mrs. Xu what happened in the palace today.

"Mother, does the empress understand why I said that?"

"Well, the empress understands." After saying this, Mrs. Xu thought for a while and looked at Dong Shu and said, "It's good to only mention this once today, and you must not mention it in front of the empress again in the future."

As soon as Dong Shu heard what the old lady Xu said, she naturally nodded and took down her words.

The Xu family was about to leave the capital and go to Zhuangzi in the suburbs. Xu Shiqiu also brought a few people into the barracks. At the same time, another group of people was also rushing to the capital.
