good meal

Chapter 237 Joining forces
Although Chu Liangrao didn't say anything, but soon caught the wind and noticed the reason, and some clever officials' wives even put on an experienced appearance to talk to Chu Liangrao.

Chu Liangrao thanked them one by one, and received the guests with a good temper.

But it's not a good thing that there are too many people here, after all, Chu Liangrao still needs to rest, so the coming and going of people makes her quite tired.Sometimes when I sit there for a while and then close my eyes, it hurts Du's mother to look at it.

Simply, Mother Du suggested to Chu Liangrao that it was inconvenient to see guests these days, and she would entertain them later.

Chu Liangrao nodded and said, "I'm really tired these days."

On the second day, Chu Liangrao woke up half an hour late to have breakfast when he heard that there was a visitor.

It stands to reason that I said hello yesterday, so no one will come to the door today, I'm afraid the people who will come are not small.Thinking about it, Chu Liangrao put down the bowl and asked who is here?
Mother Du said with a smile: "Princess, you must not guess who it is?"

"So mysterious?" Chu Liangrao smiled and asked, "Could it be that Daddy is here?"

But Mama Du didn't say anything, she just said: "The princess will know after a while."

so mysterious?Chu Liangrao glanced at Mama Du, smiled and shook his head.

After a while, the distinguished guest arrived. Seeing the kind-faced person in front of the door, Chu Liangrao happily got up and went up to meet him: "Grandmother, why didn't you let me know beforehand? I can go pick you up."

Unexpectedly, it would be the old lady who usually never leaves the house, Chu Liangrao hurriedly ordered someone to prepare some of her favorite pastries.

"You don't need to worry about it, let me see, it's really round." The old lady took Chu Liangrao's hand and looked at it, and said, "Did you eat well and sleep well these days?"

"It's good, but I always feel that I don't get enough sleep." Chu Liangrao smiled shyly.

"It's like this." The old lady sat down, pulled Chu Liangrao to sit beside her as before, raised her hand to caress Chu Liangrao's little hand, and said, "I'm still worried that I will suffer here. It seems that I am worrying too much."

"Ah Rao made grandma bother." Chu Liangrao said, offering hot tea with both hands.

The old lady took a sip and nodded secretly: "You are always careful, you still remember my taste."

After exchanging a few words, the old lady got to the point: "At the moment the county horse is not here, it will be inconvenient for you to be a woman at home, so you might as well move back to the palace, at least I, an old lady, will take care of you, what do you think?"

After hearing this, Chu Liangrao's expression changed. She naturally knew that the old lady had good intentions, and she also thought about going back to her natal home when she had time, but it was not a wise move to go back to her natal home at this time, not to mention that Huo Tainan was not at home. Even if he is at home, there is no such thing as going back to his mother's house at this time.

Thinking about it, Chu Liangrao said softly: "Grandmother, don't worry, Ah Rao is not a child anymore, she will take care of herself."

The old lady thought of something else, waved her hand to screen away the maids around her, and said, "Ah Rao, can you still not trust grandma?"

"Ah Rao didn't mean that." Chu Liangrao hurriedly said, "I'm afraid I might cause you trouble."

"Silly girl, where is the trouble? This is a happy event." The old lady said with a smile, "I also know what you are worried about. Don't worry, your mother has no time to mess with you these days, and she has a lot of things to do. .”

When mentioning the Gu family, Chu Liangrao couldn't help being puzzled, and asked, "What is mother up to lately?"

"I'm busy with your father's affairs." The old lady said implicitly.

Chu Liangrao understood that Dare is to pick a concubine for Chu Chaoyang, no wonder the old lady would say that she couldn't leave her.

After sizing up Chu Liangrao's expression, the old lady said again: "You have a body, so you don't have to pay attention to it, just take care of it with peace of mind, it's more convenient to eat anything you want, isn't it here?"

"Grandmother..." Chu Liangrao held the old lady's arm and said, "Ah Rao is really good."

Seeing Chu Liangrao's resolute attitude, the old lady sighed and said: "Could it be that you are still worried that your husband will not agree? Now that you have a big belly, he will follow you in everything, so there is no need to worry about it. At worst, let your father write a letter to let him know."

In this way, isn't it just arrogance?

Chu Liangrao shook his head with a smile, and said: "Ah Rao is very grateful to be able to take care of my grandmother, but now that Ah Rao has become a family, it is embarrassing to bother grandma. Ah Rao is very happy."

"You child, why are you still so stubborn?" The old lady looked at Chu Liangrao helplessly, and sighed, "Forget it, I'll leave it to you."

Having said that, the old lady still helped out and did a lot of things, and even booked the midwife, waiting to come over one month before the due date.Seeing that the old lady was thoughtful, Chu Liangrao was relieved a lot, and listed these things one by one in the letter with Huo Tainan.

Huo Tainan also expressed his gratitude to his grandmother in his reply letter, saying that he was staying in Beijing and must thank her old man well, but he didn't mention a word about business matters.Chu Liangrao also knew that he was in trouble, so he didn't ask about his recent situation.Although there is no news about the matter in southern Xinjiang, there is news about the previous turmoil in Kyoto.

It is said that the Holy Majesty learned that the Su family had cheated and cheated, so he decided to decapitate Su Tuochuan as the queen of autumn for the crime of deceiving the emperor. Madam Su passed out when she heard the news. , while the rest of the Su family, old and young, were all exiled. The originally high-ranking Mr. Su also lost his life halfway through the trip. The two sent the white-haired people away from the white-haired people, and only the younger generations of the Su family were implicated.

And because the Su family is also related to the prime minister, the prime minister was also implicated, but fortunately, the prime minister's disciples knew the seriousness of the situation, and they were very united at this time, and the prime minister, who was about to be convicted, was also spared. .

At this point, anyone with a discerning eye could see how plump the prime minister's wings were, but what Chu Liangrao thought was, no wonder the emperor would favor the queen. With such a powerful threat, how dare he abolish the crown prince?

Just when the matter gradually calmed down, news came out that the prime minister's eldest son had made a marriage contract with Chen Gelao's daughter.

This news is tantamount to smashing a thousand waves in still water, Chu Liangrao is even more puzzled, logically speaking of the previous incident, the prime minister should learn to keep a low profile like before, such a strong alliance, isn't it just Do you want to draw hatred for yourself?

Or are they already unscrupulous?

Chu Liangrao couldn't help thinking about the matter in southern Xinjiang, and felt a little uneasy.

Different from Chu Liangrao's deliberation, Mama Du cared more about gossip. She said, "I heard that Prime Minister Cao's eldest son is well-mannered and educated. It's a pity that he suffers from tuberculosis so he didn't get engaged for a long time. I didn't expect that, actually I am so lucky to have married Ms. Chen."
