Chapter 32 Home Letter

"Madam, madam, I have a letter." Just after noon, Uncle Zhang at the door rushed into the room with a letter in his hand.

Hearing the sudden letter from Master Zhou, who was far away in the capital, Mrs. Zhou was also very excited and greeted him.

He caught the envelope and looked at the familiar handwriting. Mrs. Zhou burst into tears and said, "Come on, Uncle Su, go and call Mr. Nianxin."

Soon after, Mr. Ming, who specializes in writing and reading letters on behalf of others, came to the house. As a result, Mrs. Zhou handed over the letter and read it carefully.

"What does this master mean?" After listening to the content of the letter, Mrs. Zhou frowned and looked at Su Bo and the maid Qiu Yue beside her to ask for their opinions.

"Madam, have you met with Master Li?" After a moment of meditation, Qiu Yue made an inference.

"Yes!" Su Bo also nodded, "According to the foot trip, Zhao's mother should have returned to Li's house a long time ago, and the time when the information was sent to the capital was also correct."

"However, the master was very opposed to Han Yu's daughter-in-law last time. How could he suddenly change his words?" Mrs. Zhou was still puzzled, "According to the master's meaning, he seemed to be in a hurry and even urged me to do a happy event. This..."

"Madam, the young master is over 20 years old, and other people's sons and daughters have held several times. The young master has not married yet. No wonder the master is anxious." Su Bo touched his beard and said.

"Qiuyue, what was the result of the last time you calculated the eight characters of Chongxiao and Hanyu?" Mrs. Zhou suddenly remembered this matter.

"This...Madam, the master said that the young master and the cousin are married, but the journey is not very smooth. You need to be more careful, especially from the elders." The autumn moon is telling the truth.

Mrs. Zhou continued: "The obstruction from the elders should be the master's previous opposition!" Now, the old man has agreed. Is it really a natural marriage between the two of them?

As he spoke, Zhou Chongxiao came into the door and asked as soon as he opened his mouth, "Mom, I heard that my father wrote. What did he say?"

"Chao came just right, come on." Mrs. Zhou waved and said, "The last time my mother told you, when are you going to do your marriage with Han Yu?"

"Why did you suddenly raise this question?" Zhou Chongxiao's happy face suddenly disappeared.

Mrs. Zhou also felt uncomfortable, and her voice raised and said, "What's wrong with this matter? Your marriage with Han Yu has been decided by our Zhou family and the Li family since childhood. Previously, you said that you were still young, so you have been procrastinating. Now that you are more than 20 years old, and Han Yu is not young. How long do you have the heart to let Han Yu, the eldest girl, wait for you?

"If you really can't wait so much, then let your cousin find someone to marry quickly!" Zhou Chongxiao, who was angry because everything was not going well these two days, was furious and rushed out angrily. However, as soon as he said it, he regretted it.

"Papa"!

With a crisp sound, Mrs. Zhou slapped Zhou Chongxiao's face fiercely, hitting his face to one side, and couldn't recover for a long time.

Mrs. Zhou herself didn't know how to react for a moment, and her lips trembling and speechless.

Zhou Chongxiao touched his cheek, which was still hot. Since he was a child, as the proud son of heaven, he has never been beaten like this. With red eyes, Zhou Chongxiao rushed out of the door with a stuffy head.

"The heavy!" Mrs. Zhou shouted loudly, but she couldn't call back her son's departure.

He buried his head and rushed out. When he was in the garden, Zhou Chongxiao happened to bump into Li Hanyu coming towards him.

Li Hanyu was preparing to visit Mrs. Zhou with a few plates of snacks. Unexpectedly, as soon as she walked into the garden, she saw her cousin Zhou Chongxiao covering his face with one hand and running over. She thought something big had happened, so she hurriedly wanted to come forward to care.

"Go away!" Zhou Chongxiao was on fire. He waved his hand and knocked off Li Hanyu's care. He also knocked over the dessert plate in the hand of the maid next to him, and then continued to rush out without looking back.

Li Hanyu was innocently implicated. Even the snacks she was going to give to her aunt fell to the ground. Suddenly, her grievance turned into two lines of tears and she couldn't help falling.

"I didn't do anything wrong. Why did I suddenly vent all my anger on me?" The more he thought about it, the more he felt that he was not worth it. Li Hanyu wiped his tears and turned back to his room.

In the fireworks alley in the south of the city, the red makeup is enchanting.

Mother Jin, the mother of Fanglou, was hiding in bed and dreaming about spring and autumn. Suddenly, she was awakened by a rapid knock on the door and suddenly became angry.

"Which immoral ghost is it that disturbs people's dreams in broad daylight!" While cursing the person who knocked on the door in a shrill voice, Jin's mother got up and put on her coat.

As soon as the door opened, the boy in the Fanglou stood at the door with an anxious face, and the fist that was knocking on the door almost hit Kim's mother's chest.

"You are a reckless person. What's going on like this? Is your family dead?" With a big yawn, Jin's mother saw that it was Yunyan and turned around and was about to go into the room to continue to sleep.

"Mom, don't sleep." Yun Yan took Jin's mother's hand and said anxiously, "Master Zhou is here!"

"Master Zhou? Which young master Zhou?" Jin's mother rolled her eyes, but then thought of something, "It's hard... it's hard... Is it the young master Zhou in Zhou's mansion!"

"That's him. I'm drinking in the lobby now!" Yun Yan said in a trembling voice.

Mother Jin was full of excitement and completely woke up. She said, "This God of Wealth hasn't been here for a long time. What's the wind blowing today? Yunyan, come on, go and shout out all the girls. Today, I must give Master Zhou's wallet to my mother.

In the Huating of Fanglou, Zhou Chongxiao's drunken eyes were hazy, hugging left and right. He drank from afternoon to evening, spending money like dirt, and made Jin's mother laugh so much that she couldn't close her mouth.

Invited by former friends, some family sons and literati who had a good relationship with Zhou Chongxiao also responded to Zhou Chongxiao's invitation to the Fanglou.

"Isn't this Master Zhou? I haven't seen you for a long time." The crazy Mr. Qian quickly stepped forward and laughed.

"Stop talking, you're late. Drink!" Zhou Chongxiao narrowed his eyes and recognized the identity of the person and pushed a pot of wine in front of Mr. Qian.

Mr. Qian and a group of friends behind him looked at each other and said happily, "Okay! Celebrating Mr. Zhou's coming out of the world again, I'll drink!"

Not long after, a group of princes arrived, sitting in groups in the court, hugging the girls and laughing.

The wine was hot, and Mr. Qian suddenly remembered a question: "Mother Jin! Mother Jin!"

Mother Jin ran over, shook Mr. Qian's face with a fragrant handkerchief and said, "Oh! Isn't this Mr. Qian? Why is it such a big deal to call me here in such a hurry!"

"You mother, how dare you fool your grandfather and me like this!" Mr. Qian was full of wine, but his eyes were still clear.

"What are you talking about!" Jin's mother's handkerchief swung around and almost shook the eyes of the money. "Who doesn't know the whole streets and alleys of Wanyang City? My mother Jin does business, which is the most honest."

"Humph!" Mr. Qian grabbed Jin's mother's fat hand and pinched it hard, which made Mother Jin's face turn pale. "Today, so many of us have come here, or are we made by Master Zhou? How dare you hide from Miss Meixiang to come out to accompany us? Do you think this is the integrity you pay attention to?"

"This..." Mother Jin glanced around with her eyes. Sure enough, she didn't see the Huakui Meixiang in her building. Suddenly, her face turned white, and she scolded the boy Yunyan in her heart.

She clearly explained that she must wake up all the girls in the building. Why is there no Mei Xiang as the top card?

While she was embarrassed and didn't know how to defend it, a warm wind blew into the court, instantly dispelling the atmosphere of wine all over the room, making everyone fascinated and looking up at the source of the wind.

There are beautiful women in the north, who are peerless and independent. Look at the city of people, and then look at the country.

A simple white dress, a crooked bun, two dots of Bifei dotted in the hair, and a red plum blossom in the middle of the eyebrows. Holding the seven-stringed guqin in his arms, Mei Xiangying saluted: "Dear gentlemen, Mei Xiang is courteous."

"Ms. Mei Xiang is free of courtesy." With the word public mouth, you can imagine the image status of this Meixiang girl in the eyes of everyone.

Zhou Chongxiao staggered up, walked to Meixiang with the wine bottle, put the wine bottle in one stroke, handed it under Meixiang's nose, and said, "Miss Meixiang is so arrogant that she hasn't come until now. Punishment!"

Everyone was dumbfounded for a moment.

"Mei Xiang is late and willing to be punished." Mei Xiang looked up at Zhou Chongxiao. In her eyes, she was worried about Master Zhou. She handed the lyre to the maid who followed next to her, reached out to take the wine bottle, raised her head, exposed her beautiful neck, and drank the wine in the bottle in one breath.

Never drunk so quickly. Mei Xiang was choked by the liquor, and her long-sleeved mouth covered her mouth and coughed a few times.

"Good!"

"Miss Meixiang is so bold!"

A group of princes clapped their hands and applauded Mei Xiang.

"Is Mr. Zhou satisfied?" With long eyelashes raised lightly, Mei Xiang smiled at Zhou Chongxiao, who was shocked by her behavior.

"It's actually difficult to live up to the fame. Miss Meixiang is really extraordinary. Chongxiao admires it." Zhou Chongxiao bowed and bowed down, but he almost fell down because he was drunk.

"Be careful, son!" Mei Xiang held Zhou Chongxiao, but the woman's strength was always limited. She couldn't hold Zhou Chongxiao, a big man, and her body was tilted to the side.

Zhou Chongxiao's head leaned against Mei Xiang's neck, and he only felt a faint fragrance coming, which made people feel refreshed.

"Mei Xiang, you really smell so good!" Struggling to stand up, Zhou Chongxiao took advantage of the wine to speak his mind.

The princes behind him heard it clearly and immediately booed.

"Master Zhou, you must have taken a fancy to Miss Meixiang!"

"Miss Meixiang is so blessed!"

"Zhou Da Shao's vision is really extraordinary, haha!"

Mei Xiang smiled at the corners of her mouth and said softly, "I don't know if Master Zhou will appreciate it tonight. Why don't you go to Meixiang's Anxiang Pavilion to taste tea and listen to the piano?"
