Chapter 132 The Skinny Horse's Second Daughter 4
This Magnolia Garden is located around the main courtyard. It seems that Feng Qingzi really cares about Azhi.
I didn’t expect that Magnolia Garden had been cleaned up.
A hint of disdain flashed across Zhou Jingyi's eyes.
Such a nice residence was arranged for Zhou An Ning for nothing.
It's simply a waste of resources.
When the old lady heard about Feng Qingzi's arrangement, she was also somewhat dissatisfied.
Neither Zhou Song nor the old lady welcomed Azhi's return.
She was seen tapping her pipe and complaining, "Feng is really crazy. Why did she take Zhou An Ning back? Hasn't she considered the reputation of the General's Mansion?"
"Even after so many years, Feng still doesn't have the General's Mansion in her heart. We shouldn't have let her marry in the first place."
Although she said that Feng Qingzi should not be allowed to marry, the old lady knew that the emperor's order could not be disobeyed.
Now Zhou Song dotes on Feng Qingzi, but this time she insisted on welcoming back her second daughter, which caused Zhou Song some dissatisfaction.
Nanny Su was sorting tobacco leaves for the old lady.
"The general's wife was well liked when she married him. Now that she has given birth to two sons and two daughters, the general loves her even more."
Thinking that Zhou Song was not as close to his mother as before because of Feng Qingzi.
"By the way, since Feng insisted on taking Zhou An Ning back, how long has it been since the general went to her yard?"
Feng Qingzi and Zhou Song have been very loving over the years.
During this period, Zhou Song did not take a concubine and lived with his wife wholeheartedly.
The old lady suggested several times that Zhou Song take a concubine, but he refused firmly.
Zhou Song rested in the main courtyard every day.
Only this time, Zhou Song ignored Feng Qingzi for several days.
The old lady stood up and told Madam Su, "The general likes weak and beautiful women. The woman I asked you to arrange can be put to use now."
"No flower stays red forever, no man stays good forever, Feng Qingzi will not hold a man's heart forever."
At night, Ahzhi sat in front of the bronze mirror, letting the maid behind her comb her hair.
The maid Feng Qingzi arranged for Azhi was called Tonghua.
She looks very cute, with a round face and dimples when she smiles.
Tonghua was combing Ah Zhi's hair while exclaiming in shock, "Second Miss is so pretty. Her skin is just like a peeled egg."
The Tonghua in my memory was loyal and devoted. When Zhou An Ning was being chased by an assassin, she resolutely blocked the fatal knife for Zhou An Ning. However, after her death, Zhou An Ning still could not escape the bad luck.
When Zhou An Ning came to the general's mansion, she found only two people who were sincere to her.
Feng Qingzi and tung flowers.
Even if she had the admiration of Prince Cheng, it was just a momentary lustful impulse.
Rather than saying that Prince Cheng loves Zhou An Ning, it would be better to say that he loves Zhou An Ning's appearance.
Zhou Jingyi didn't like Prince Cheng in the first place, and she just wanted to take this opportunity to cancel the engagement.
Ahzhi lowered her eyebrows shyly, her slender body wearing a thin white nightgown.
Her jet-black hair draped behind her, exuding an indescribable grace and charm, even though she just sat there without saying a word.
But a pair of beautiful eyes is enough to be captivating.
"Your name is Tonghua?"
I didn't expect that Azhi actually remembered my name.
Tonghua nodded vigorously with joy.
"Miss, you actually remember my name?"
From the first moment she saw Azhi, Tonghua was stunned.
The second young lady in front of him was so beautiful that even a girl would be moved, not to mention a man.
Look at Tonghua's surprised expression.
Ah Zhi said to her gently, "You are a maid sent by my mother. We will be together day and night in the future. How could I not remember your name?"
Live together day and night.
There was a hint of shyness on Tonghua's face, and her chubby little hands tightly grasped the wooden comb.
"This slave will definitely serve the young lady well."
"Thank you, Tonghua."
"You're welcome, miss."
The next day, before dawn, Azhi had been awakened by Tonghua and appeared in front of Feng Qingzi, dressed up.
Looking at Azhi's slightly pale face, Feng Qingzi felt really distressed.
She walked up to Ah Zhi and held her little hand, her face full of concern.
"But didn't you get enough rest last night? You don't look well."
If it wasn't for the so-called filial piety, Feng Qingzi really couldn't bear to let her daughter get up so early.
But paying respects to the old lady is the younger generation's duty.
When a woman gets married, she will have to rely on her parents' family.
Now Feng Qingzi has to consider her husband and mother-in-law.
Ahzhi was wearing a peach pink jacket today, with an apricot-colored gown with magnolia patterns on the outside, and a long skirt embroidered with a hundred flowers underneath. She had a jade ban belt and decorative tassels tied around her waist.
The original body had been trained in how to walk, sit and lie down, so even with the forbidden steps, he could still pay attention to his manners.
This Yangzhou skinny horse is not a brothel girl. She still has to learn the overt rules. As for the other means of seduction, they are all in her heart and eyes.
This outfit highlights her tranquility and cuteness, which makes people feel good about her.
Azhi shook his head slightly towards Feng Qingzi.
"Mother, I'm fine. I'm resting in an unfamiliar environment for a while, so it's inevitable that I'm still a little uncomfortable. I also have to pay my respects to my grandmother and father. Let's not waste time."
Seeing Azhi being so sensible, Feng Qingzi felt both relieved and distressed.
When the mother and daughter arrived at the Changshou Courtyard, the old lady had already gotten up early and was leaning on the couch, smoking a pipe with a gold-thread and jade inlay in her hand, puffing away at the smoke with a look of contentment on her face.
"Madam, the general's wife and the second young lady are here."
When she heard Feng Qingzi and Azhi coming, the old lady continued smoking.
"Let them wait, and tell them that I got up late today because I was tired."
"Yes."
Zhou Jingyi, who was standing by, was holding a teacup and looked at the maidservant with disdain as she left.
She was still wearing the bright red dress, looking very pretty and lively.
Zhou Jingyi pouted slightly and complained to the old lady.
"Grandma, mother is so confused that she actually took Zhou Anning back. Why would a skinny girl from Yangzhou come back and be on equal footing with me?"
When Zhou Jingyi mentioned Zhou An Ning, whom she despised, she showed great disgust.
The old lady was not prepared to stop Zhou Jingyi from saying anything.
She tapped the pipe twice.
"Jing'er, your mother is from the Feng family, and she always carries the sour smell of a civil servant. The women in the capital are even more pretentious, and they really can't be compared with you."
"If the emperor hadn't asked her to marry your father, I really wouldn't have liked it at all. Don't learn your mother's ways."
"Your father is a general. A good woman should be heroic and brave. Don't be pretentious and annoying."
The old lady has been teaching Zhou Jingyi this way over the years.
Zhou Jingyi really learned it 100%.
He usually remained serious with the daughters of civil officials and only played around with the daughters of military commanders.
Even to her own grandparents, she still did not respect them very much.
Zhou Jingyi straightened her back with a proud look on her face.
"Don't worry, grandma. I will become the Crown Princess in the future. I don't want to learn from the daughters of these civil servants who are so delicate and frivolous."
