New widow

"I haven't heard from my family yet." Su Du didn't want to mention the capital, but he couldn't get around it. It was their hometown, with their families, and even after being ups and downs in this officialdom, they finally got there. If you want to return to the capital, you can be a high-ranking official in the capital, and you can also hold power in the capital.

"My father wrote me another letter, telling me not to worry, saying that my mother was looking for a wife for me, and asked me what kind of woman I like." Zhang Qing had a smile on his face when he spoke, Su Du She couldn't help but glance at him. Zhang Qing's parents loved Zhang Qing beyond words. And it can't be said that his parents don't love him, but this love always has some flavor that Su Du himself can't explain clearly.

Maybe, this is the so-called deep house, the so-called family with rules, but if you like someone, how can you be bound by the rules?

"Ah, why is this street so lively?" A voice suddenly came from his ears. Zhang Qing looked up and saw a group of people coming in front. The leaders were Manager Wu and Manager Li, with Suqiao and Song Zhen on each side. Accompanying Mrs. Wan, Aunt Wan'er Xia Yun and Zhou Le walked behind them. Sister-in-law Wu and Miss Song of the Du family were surrounding them. Behind them, Wan Dequan and two assistants were following.

This group of people appeared on the street. Even if there were no barriers, they knew that they were the women of a wealthy family traveling, so wherever they went, people would make room for them.

"So Mrs. Kuang is here to see the lights too." Zhang Qing couldn't help but said with a smile. Su Du heard his heart beating wildly again, bang bang bang, beating so fiercely, but there was still something on Su Du's face. Neither showed it.

Shi and Manager Li had already seen Su Du and Zhang Qing standing there. They hurriedly came forward to salute Su Du and Zhang Qing. Su Du smiled and said: "We are also out to play today, so there is no need to be so polite."

"Our wife said that it is rare to encounter such a festival, so the whole family went out for a walk." Manager Li said respectfully. Su Du had already looked into the crowd and saw Su Qiao holding a red plum in her hand. Looking down at the beauty, she is already very beautiful, not to mention that Suqiao is holding a red plum in her hand at this moment, making the person even more beautiful with the flower lining.

Su Du quickly calmed down and said to Su Qiao: "Ms. Kuang was very helpful that day. Official Zhang also said that he would go to the house to express his gratitude some other day."

"You're welcome, Mr. Zhang." Su Qiao also said with a smile. Song Zhen had already reached out to hold Su Qiao's hand: "Aunt Kuang, there is a revolving lantern over there. It's so beautiful. Let's go over and take a look."

"That lamp was made by the prefect himself this year." Zhang Qing had already started to explain. Song Zhen looked at Zhang Qing: "Is it true?"

"Of course it's true." Zhang Qing already smiled: "If you don't believe it, girl, just walk under the lamp and you will see it says on it, "Manufactured by a certain government."

"No wonder it's so beautiful." Song Zhen was already looking at the revolving lantern in the direction Zhang Qing pointed. For a moment, Su Du looked at Su Qiao and Zhang Qing looked at Song Zhen. Neither of them spoke, as if there was no one in the noisy and lively street except the people in front of Su Du and Zhang Qing.

"I see there is something to see ahead, let's go for a walk." Old Mrs. Wan said with a smile. Only when she said this did Zhang Qing wake up. He was still on the street at this moment. How could he be so addicted? Zhang Qing said to Mrs. Wan: "

If you don't mind, then let me lead the way. "

"How dare you dislike it?" Aunt Wan said hurriedly, and a recommendation official led her. This was something she never expected.

"We also want to take the opportunity to go shopping, let's go together." Su Du added and made a gesture of invitation. Managers Li and Wu were a little nervous, but they still didn't dare to say anything and just walked at the front.

Whenever Zhang Qing passed a good-looking lamp, he always told Song Zhen what kind of lamp it was. Song Zhen clapped her hands and said, "I didn't expect Zhang Tuiguan to know so many allusions."

"I was naughty when I was a child. I would pester my parents to go out to play every day. There was a lamp craftsman nearby. When I was free, I would go to his house. He would tell me what kind of lamp it was and what was painted on it. Such an allusion.”

"That's it!" Song Zhen's eyes were shining, and she could never get tired of looking at such shining eyes. Zhang Qing said in his heart, but did not dare to show it on his face, and still walked forward.

The street was not too long. Even though it was crowded, and even though Zhang Qing and Sudu had slowed down, the street still came to the end. Zhang Qing stopped and said to Song Zhen: "There is a teahouse in front of you. I think you are tired too." Well, why not go to the teahouse to have a rest."

"Okay, Aunt Kuang." Song Zhen turned around and was about to call Su Qiao, but she saw Su Qiao standing there, looking not far away. Song Zhen couldn't help but asked in surprise: "Aunt Kuang, what are you looking at?"

"I'm looking at Wang Shangshu's Mansion." Suqiao said lightly. There were lights in front of every house, but in front of Wang Shangshu's Mansion, it was quiet and empty. If it weren't for the red sticker on the door, couplets, only

I'm afraid that some people may mistakenly think that this family is experiencing a funeral, so it's not a holiday.

"Shang Shufu, I'm afraid there will be a funeral in a few days." Su Du said softly. Aunt Du has been locked up for several days. It is said that she refused to eat the meals sent in the past few days. , just cursing Wang Shangshu, or begging for mercy, asking Wang Shangshu to let him see his son, but Wang Shangshu ignored him and only ordered people to send food in as usual.

It can't be saved if she doesn't eat. Aunt Du will still eat a little in the past two days, but it's hard to bear sadness. I heard that Aunt Du has fallen ill in bed. Wang Shangshu ordered people to come and take a look, but these people knew that Aunt Du was in serious trouble at this time, so they just said that Aunt Du should rest and rest.

Since he wanted to rest, Wang Shangshu arranged for someone to clean up a remote small courtyard and moved Aunt Du to the small courtyard. Only an old woman accompanied her.

Suqiao hummed: "If I think about it this time last year, Aunt Du would have been very happy. The lights in front of the Shangshu Mansion would have been the brightest."

"It was more like this last year." Mrs. Du had already interrupted: "Last year I went to the city to see the lanterns. At that time, the lanterns in the Shangshu Mansion were the most magnificent in the whole city. I also asked, what is this called and what kind of mountain is it?"

"Aoshan!" Su Qiao said softly, and Zhou Le also smiled: "As expected, people's pomp will be even greater once they leave the capital."

In the capital, officials are always subject to restrictions. Even if they want to show off, they cannot go past the princes and nobles. After leaving the capital and returning to my hometown, I naturally put on as many pomps as I wanted. Even a Shangshu Mansion arrived.

During the Lantern Festival, you can build a small Aoshan mountain.
