Chapter 337 Temple Pilgrimage
Young girls in their teens, no matter how dignified and elegant they are taught in their respective homes on weekdays, they still have a bit of vivacity in their nature.
As soon as they heard that it was finally time to go to the vegetarian meal, the three girls showed secret expressions of relief at the same time. The three of them noticed it, looked at each other and smiled, and they understood each other. For a while, they got closer.
Mrs. Zhou’s youngest daughter, Zhou Yuan, held Zhao Liya’s arm, leaned close to her and said with a small smile, “Sister Zhao, we’re finally going out for a trip. We’ll have to play enough to make this trip worthwhile. Let's take a good stroll together, shall we? I've been here several times, and the scenery in many places is pretty good!"
Zhou Rui also slowed down to join them, jokingly said: "You, you are still so playful! It's fine if you are playful yourself, but you still have to take sister Zhao together, and look back at how the third aunt taught you .”
Zhou Yuan covered her mouth and giggled, and begged for mercy softly: "Good sister! Please forgive me, please don't complain to my mother! Let's come out after a long time, so naturally we have to have a good time. When you are at home, you may not know when you can go out, don’t you think so? Sister Zhao, let’s go together, right?”
Zhao Liya couldn't help laughing, and nodded: "Okay, let's go shopping together!"
"Hmm! I knew that sister Zhao is the best! Second sister is also good!"
Zhao Liya and Zhou Rui couldn't help laughing.
The three fell behind, chattering and laughing, Mrs. Zhou looked back at them, and said to Mrs. Deng and her second sister-in-law with a smile: "They are young girls, and they get along very well!"
Mrs. Zhou also laughed and said, "We are meant to be a family. Wouldn't it be better to have a better relationship? From now on, our family will be lively!"
Deng also laughed, "Exactly, they get along very well."
Back in the small courtyard where they were resting, they cleaned their hands and wiped their faces. Soon, they met and sat down in the flower hall. On the circular dining table, vegetarian dishes were brought up one after another, all of which were gluten, tofu, mushrooms, bamboo shoots, radishes, Green vegetables, cabbage, etc. are made in a homely way, and the dishes are served on light brown and black rough pottery dishes and bowls.
The elders gave in to each other, and everyone moved their chopsticks. The taste was not bad, and some of them could even be called amazing, and some compliments were indispensable.
Zhao Liya was also a little surprised. I didn't expect that the Su Zhai in Jinyun Temple really lived up to its reputation! It's just that I hope that some people come to offer incense sincerely, instead of having evil intentions, other schemes, and wanting to cause some accidents to defile this quiet place of Buddhism.
Zhao Liya's gaze passed over the two mother and daughter of the Zhou family calmly, and lowered her gaze.
Since she wants to be with Zhou Hansheng, how could she not get to know Zhou's family carefully? Especially the female family members of the Zhou family.
After passing the door, even if Zhou Hansheng pampered and protected her and would not detain her in the back house, it was obvious that she still needed to deal more with the female relatives.
Planning for a rainy day is a must.
The eldest family was excluded, and Mrs. Zhou favored her own second and third families. Who in the capital didn't know? The matter of retiring from the marriage back then was also decided by Mrs. Zhou alone!
Unexpectedly, the Duke and Duchess now support this marriage again. This is almost tantamount to a public slap in the face of Mrs. Zhou, but they also refused to admit that they had withdrawn the marriage back then, which made Mrs. Zhou have nowhere to complain.
Everyone knew she was ashamed, but she couldn't tell.
If you think about it, you will know how aggrieved Mrs. Zhou is.
If it wasn't for his mother's poor health, how could he be so arrogant? But the mother can't manage the house at all, not to mention that once the old housekeeper and the second and third housekeepers will definitely make troubles, then the mother will have no energy to fight with them, so she simply doesn't care, and it will be clean and clean after handing it over.
Even so, they couldn't reach his parents.
It's just that when he was young, one of his parents was busy with government affairs and the other had limited energy and couldn't take care of him. They were afraid that he would be harmed or misled by them if he was careless, so they sent him away on the pretext of his poor health. .
From this point alone, one can tell that those people are not fuel-efficient lamps.
Obviously knowing that Zhao Liya will be a righteous wife after passing through the door, fully qualified to be a housekeeper, but I don't believe that Mrs. Zhou and the others will just watch and do nothing.
Seeing the almost overflowing smiles on the faces of Mrs. Tuesday and Mrs. Wednesday, as well as the cordial and enthusiastic laughter, Zhao Liya felt deeply violated.
There is also the gentle and quiet Zhou Rui, the delicate and lively Zhou Yuan, Zhao Liya will not really believe that this is the most authentic way they treat her unless her brain is flooded.
After eating vegetarian food for a while, everyone was drinking tea, digesting food and talking and laughing in the flower hall. After a while, Zhou Xian couldn't sit still, the handkerchief in his hand was twisted out of shape, and he looked out from time to time, which made Mrs. Zhou take a look at her and scolded with a smile. : "Why don't you sit properly, you monkey, and keep looking at what you are doing outside? You really don't look like a lady at all!"
Zhou Yuan simply took the opportunity to hug his mother's arm and rub it against her body, smiling and coquettishly: "Mother, let's come here after a long time, and it's such a good weather, let's go out and have fun, okay?"
"No, sit down honestly, the girl's house should be quiet."
"Mom! The second sister and sister Zhao also want to go, but I'm too embarrassed to say, so you agreed!"
"You child, you are not ashamed to drag your second sister and sister Zhao's family!"
"Mom!"
Mrs. Tuesday, Mrs. Deng, and the servants couldn't help laughing.
Mrs. Tuesday smiled politely and said to Mrs. Deng, "Young girls, it's not good to be too reserved with them, why don't you let them go for a walk."
Ms. Deng looked at Zhao Liya, nodded and smiled: "Alright, let's go, don't go too far."
Zhao Liya agreed with a smile.
Zhou Yuan couldn't wait, giggled and answered a few words flatteringly, and couldn't help but drag Zhao Liya away affectionately. Zhou Rui followed with a smile.
Mrs. Tuesday's smile deepened, and she smiled at Mrs. Deng and her siblings: "Look at how good their relationship is. It's good to be young. It's easy to talk and laugh together and play together!"
Mrs. Zhou smiled and said: "In any case, in the future, we will all be relatives, and this is the best way to get close!"
"That's right!"
All three of them laughed.
