Drunk House Chapter 85

Chapter 85 Dressing up (one more)

During the conversation, Yue Wan set the dishes, Su Rong and Zhou Gu stopped talking about Xie Lin.

The Su family doesn't pay attention to eating and sleeping, and there is no such rule when there is a big family at the same table, let alone Su Rong and Zhou Gu.

Therefore, Su Rong chatted with Zhou Gu about other gossips while eating, and Zhou Gu got used to it, the two of them chatted while eating, and unknowingly ate too much.

Su Rong stood for a whole day today, not wanting to move. After eating, she sat on a chair and yawned, "I don't want to take a walk today."

Zhou Gu looked at her, "Isn't it tomorrow? Even if relatives and friends come to Su's house today, you don't need to entertain them. Why are you so tired today?"

"I didn't need to entertain people, but my mother insisted on bringing me by her side and entertaining people with her." Su Rong was tired, "Mother said let me learn a little bit."

She looked at Zhou Gu's pretty face, which looked very clear under the shadow of the lamp, and sighed, "Mother said, I'm too late, I have to learn these things, lest I marry you, I can't help the inner house, greet and deliver things, I can't let you do it."

Zhou Gu deeply felt that what the lady said was reasonable, so he nodded unconsciously.

Su Rong stared at his face, and wanted to say, "If you weren't so good-looking and handsome, and it would be so troublesome to marry you, I would regret the marriage now." But he couldn't say it, and only sighed, "Hey, why are you nodding? Aren't you the smallest in the family? There are so many sister-in-laws above, even if I marry you, I don't need to do this kind of thing, right?"

Zhou Gu thought that this made sense, and nodded again, "Yes."

Su Rong looked at him, "But mother said, you have to start your own family, right?"

"Grandfather and grandmother were built here, so they won't divide the family." Zhou Gu paused, "But one day, the family should be separated."

Since ancient times, no brothers have been chained together for a lifetime.

Su Rong thought of her hypotheses rejected by the eldest lady, and asked Zhou Gu, "Well, is there anything you can do? I can ignore these trivial matters in the house?"

"Leave it to the steward?"

"What about dealing with the wives of the various prefectures?"

Zhou Gu thought about it carefully, even his mother's status, being in charge of a large inner house, required a lot of face-saving. Kings and grandchildren always had to come and go, and they always had to hold banquets on New Years and birthdays. They seemed to be very busy throughout the year.

He shook his head, "There is no way."

Unless you close the door to thank guests, you will never socialize, but that is impossible. Where there are people, there are these etiquette things for welcoming and sending off.

Su Rong rested her chin in both hands, "If you don't get married, will you not have this trouble?"

Zhou Gu: "..."

He was silent, nodded, "Really?"

He didn't know either, so he couldn't answer this question.

Su Rong yawned again, tears were about to come out, and said softly: "I can't do it, I'm really sleepy."

Seeing her like this, Zhou Gu saw that she really couldn't take a walk today, so she stood up and told her, "Let Yuewan get you some hawthorns to digest your food, and then go to sleep, so as not to accumulate food."

Su Rong felt that Zhou Gu was really careful and appropriate in some aspects, unlike the son who grew up pampered and didn't know anything and only cared about himself. She nodded and stood up, "Brother Zhou, go slowly, I won't see you off."

Zhou Gu nodded, turned and left.

After Zhou Gu left, Yue Wan slipped into the house and saw Su Rong enter the back room, she followed in with a smile, "Miss, Young Master Zhou has no airs, no bad temper, and good temper, not only the master and the eldest lady boast, but also the aunts and ladies in the mansion envy you, and many people outside the mansion also speak very well of Young Master Zhou. When you reach Ji, after Young Master Zhou returns to Beijing, will your marriage be finalized?"

"I don't know!" Su Rong has nothing dissatisfied with Zhou Gu. If there is, it means that the person who wants to kill her will let her marry into the Duke Protector's mansion smoothly.

Yue Wan made the bed, and said: "The Da Furen said today that she is going to choose a dowry mother and maid for you. These years, you have only had me by your side, but if you want to get married, you can't just bring me with you?"

"Isn't it still early? It hasn't been fully settled yet. Mother is planning to go now. Isn't it too early?"

"It's too late for the eldest lady." Yuewan Xuxu said: "We need to select candidates in advance, and we have to come to your side to serve in advance, and we will run in with you for a while. The time is too short, and I am afraid that we will not be able to use it when we enter the Duke Protector's Mansion."

Su Rong sighed, "My mother is staring at my affairs all day long. Her urgent attitude makes me almost think that I will get married tomorrow."

Yuewan grinned, "Isn't this young master Zhou being too kind? The eldest lady should naturally be more active. You can't make mistakes in this marriage."

Su Rong pinched her face, "Why are you so happy?"

Yue crooked her eyebrows and looked expectantly, "My servant is counting on you to marry into Duke Huguo's mansion and get rich, buy me all the food in the capital." After finishing speaking, she added, "There are also Ah Hua's."

Su Rong was speechless, "Why can't your dream be higher?"

"How tall?"

Su Rong took off his coat and lay down on the bed, "Take off all the dim sum shops in the capital and turn them into your own private property. Don't you want to eat as you please?"

Moon bend: "..."

Is this something a little girl like her can think about?

On the second day, Su Rong and Yanli, early in the morning, before dawn, she was called out by Wang Ma and others.

Su Rong went to bed early yesterday, even if she was woken up early in the morning, she still slept enough. After bathing and changing, Mama Wang led someone to dress her up, and Nanny Zhao also came early to help Su Rong put on her makeup.

Nurse Zhao was dexterous and careful. While applying makeup to Su Rong, she praised, "Miss Seven has delicate skin and flawless porcelain white skin. Your face is so unique that it can withstand any makeup. I will give you a brighter makeup today!"

Su Rong has no objection.

Wang Ma asked in a low voice from the side: "Our Seventh Miss is already beautiful, if it is too bright, will it be too attractive?"

"It's just to catch people's eyes." Mother Zhao said: "A family has hundreds of girls asking for it, so it's today. Although Miss Seven has a marriage contract with Young Master Zhou, she doesn't need others to break through the threshold, but it is precisely because of this that she must be more prosperous. Let all the guests see that Miss Seven is not at all unworthy of the status of Young Master Zhou."

Wang Ma thought about it too, and agreed with a smile, "Just listen to Mammy."

Now in the capital, it is said that many people say that Su Taishou's mansion does not know how much kindness the Huguogong's mansion has, so that the old Huguogong sold his grandson to a little concubine of the Su family. Although I dare not say it blatantly, there have been many discussions in private. Even if the Duke Protector's Mansion wanted to stop it, they couldn't stop this rumor. Although it is true, the members of the Su family are not comfortable hearing it. Their Seventh Miss is very good. With such a face, she is worthy of being a concubine in the palace. Why is she not worthy of Young Master Zhou?

Nurse Zhao's hands were extremely dexterous, and after an hour, Su Rong's makeup was completed.

Su Rong looked at herself in the mirror, and almost didn't recognize her. She blinked, and the person in the mirror blinked. She pursed the corners of her mouth, and the person in the mirror pursed her lips. She pinched her ears, and the person in the mirror pinched her ears.

She always knew that she was beautiful, but she didn't know that her face could be so beautiful under Zhao Nanny's skillful hands.

Wang Ma praised again and again, "Oh, Madam Zhao, your unique skill is really amazing. Our Seventh Miss is extremely beautiful today."

Yue Wan also leaned forward to look, with a look of surprise on his face, "Miss, are you still my miss?"

Su Rong turned around and pinched Yuewan's face, "Take a closer look at me, don't you?"

Yue Wan cried out in pain, covered her face and looked at Su Rong, her eyes glistened, "Miss, you look too good-looking, don't you?"

Su Rong also thought she was pretty. She reached back and stroked the ends of her hair, thanking Mammy Zhao, "Thank you Mammy, for your hard work."

Mother Zhao smiled and shook her head, "I don't have to work hard."

She also sighed in her heart, Miss Seven's appearance, even if taken to the capital, is top-notch.

Wang Ma glanced at the hourglass and urged with a smile, "Let's go, the time is coming soon."

Su Rong nodded, several people surrounded her and went to the front hall.
