Daughter Reborn as the Head of the Family

"Sister Hua's appearance is excellent, and I think the appearance of that aunt from Jiangnan is not bad either." Song Jinyue praised Song Qinghua without hesitation.

"Sister Yue, I think her temperament is good, but your old lady asked you to take people out for a walk, maybe she has other thoughts?" Zhang Dingzhi took Song Jinyue's arm and said with a frown.

Come up with your own opinion.

Song Jinyue nodded while listening.

"My little grandma has her heart set on marrying Sister Hua into a wealthy family, but...I heard that Sister Hua has already made an engagement in Jiangnan."

Zhang Dingzhi looked stunned. His granddaughter was already engaged. Does this grandmother still want to break up her granddaughter's marriage?

You are not afraid that the matter will be exposed. Your granddaughter’s reputation is so bad, how can she still gain a foothold in the capital?

While chatting, the carriage arrived in front of the Zhao Mansion.

A maid lifted the curtain, and Zhang Dingzhi got off the carriage first, then turned around and helped Song Jinyue out of the carriage.

Mrs. Zhao personally greeted the guests at the door, and Mrs. Shen, along with Song Jinxi and Song Qinghua, came forward to talk to Mrs. Zhao.

After chatting for a while, Mrs. Zhao saw Zhang's carriage standing in front of the mansion's entrance.

He signaled to the nanny beside him to welcome Shen and his party in first, and then he walked down the steps and stepped forward.

"Mrs. Zhao."

"..."

Zhang Dingzhi and Song Jinyue bowed to Mrs. Zhao.

Mrs. Zhao smiled softly, looked Song Jinyue up and down, and sighed: "Is this the second young lady of the Duke of Song Dynasty? We haven't seen her for several years, and now she is so graceful and graceful."

"Mrs. Zhao is so complimentary." Song Jinyue thanked her with a smile.

"Come in quickly, it's cold outside." Mrs. Zhao made a gesture and personally welcomed the two of them in.

He turned around and asked Zhang Dingzhi again, "Is Madam Zhang still in good health?"

"Grandma is still in good health. It's just that she is getting older and doesn't like to toss. Please forgive me, Mrs. Zhao."

Zhang Dingzhi responded with a salute. Mrs. Zhao helped Zhang Dingzhi up, who was about to salute. She smiled and shook her head and said, "It is an honor for the Zhao family that Miss Zhang can come."

The generals of the Zhang family are loyal and loyal. General Zhang and Little General Zhang have been stationed in Dingzhou at the border all year round. They have made great sacrifices for their country. Therefore, both officials and generals in the court are respectful to the Zhang family and never dare to neglect them in the slightest.

Furthermore, since the Queen was informed that she was pregnant, Madam Zhang, Mrs.

Glad.

"A few days ago, Mr. Song Guogong personally came to visit regarding the matter of Second Miss Song. Although my adults did not help much, please don't take it personally." Mrs. Zhao brought the topic to Song Jinyue again.

Song Jinyue was a little confused when she heard this.

A few days ago, my father came to look for Mr. Zhao?

Yes.

It's the witch doll thing.

She was taken away for questioning by Master Du, who patrolled the city. At that time, her father did not speak out for her.

At that time, she only felt that her whole body was completely cold.

Although she knew she could clear away the suspicion, her father's attitude and abandonment finally made her feel very lost and disappointed.

She returned to the capital for the first time. Although she hadn't seen him for several years, she didn't expect that her father no longer cared about her so much.

It turned out that her father had run for her, but she didn't know it.

Mr. Du from the City Patrol Department has always been friendly and selfless, so my father found Mr. Zhao, who is the brother-in-law of Mr. Du.

Song Jinyue came back to her senses, looked at Mrs. Zhao, and apologized with a smile.

Seeing this, Mrs. Zhao said nothing more and led the two of them to Mrs. Zhao's yard in the backyard.

Now many female relatives have come to the Zhao Mansion. Mrs. Zhao has seen waves of guests in the house, and is currently joking with Mrs. Shen in the house.

The mother-in-law lifted the bamboo curtain and invited Mrs. Zhao and several others in.

Mrs. Zhao, who is sitting on the throne, specially wore a dark red double-breasted jacket today. The pattern of the rising sun accompanied by clusters of auspicious clouds was embroidered with gold thread on it. She wore a golden phoenix headband on her bun.

A string of round and smooth pearls the size of a thumb was strung into a necklace and hung around the neck. It happened to rest on the pattern of the rising sun on the chest. It looked extremely noble.

Mrs. Zhao raised her head and looked at Mrs. Zhao.

Mrs. Zhao saluted, then glanced at Zhang Dingzhi and Song Jinyue behind her, and explained: "Mother, my daughter-in-law has brought Miss Zhang and Miss Song to pay your respects."

Mrs. Zhao looked down her daughter-in-law's hands one by one and couldn't help but smile softly.

"I wish Mrs. Zhao a long life, good health, joy and peace."

"I wish Mrs. Zhao a long life and a happy smile."

Zhang Dingzhi and Song Jinyue knelt down side by side and said birthday greetings.

Mrs. Zhao hurriedly signaled to the nun beside her to help the two of them up, and murmured: "There is no need to be so polite. Your grandmother and I were also close friends in the past."

When Mrs. Zhao and Mrs. Zhang were still unmarried, they had a relatively good handkerchief relationship in the capital when they were young.

But later on, everyone got married and was busy with their own family affairs. Over the years, there was little contact.

"Mrs. Shen, please go ahead and have some tea first." Mrs. Zhao looked at Mrs. Shen and said calmly.

Shen's face looked a little embarrassed. Although Mrs. Zhao meant to drive people away, Shen couldn't force her to stay, so she only stood up and thanked her before leaving.

Song Jinxi and Song Qinghua followed Shen to the front yard.

Mrs. Zhao looked at her daughter-in-law again and said, "You go to the front to greet the guests and let me talk to these two little babies."

"Yes." Mrs. Zhao was not annoyed, and retreated with the others with a slight smile.

Mrs. Zhao looked at her nanny again and ordered: "Go and get the dowry from my dressing table."

"Yes." Although the nanny didn't know what the old lady meant, she obeyed the old lady's instructions.

Not long after, the nanny took the old lady's dowry.

Mrs. Zhao took the black lacquered and carved makeup package, raised her hand to open it, and rummaged through the makeup package for a long time with her hasty hands.

He frowned and turned his head.

It wasn't until he found what he was looking for that he stretched his eyebrows, his eyes filled with smiles, and his weathered hands slowly took out two hostas from the carved makeup bundle, and then placed the carved black lacquer makeup bundle on the table aside.

superior.

He handed two jade hairpins engraved with auspicious clouds to grandma and motioned for grandma to send them to the two of them.

"These two hostas were given to me as a dowry by my mother when I left the imperial court. I originally planned to use them as dowries for my daughters when I gave birth to them in the future."

The corners of Mrs. Zhao's lips were raised, her eyes were full of tenderness, and she seemed to have returned to her youth.

"You also know that I, an old woman, am not blessed with much luck as a daughter. When I saw you two today, I thought of these hostas. Now, I finally gave them away before I buried them in the soil.

It also fulfills my lifelong wish as an old woman."

Zhang Dingzhi and Song Jinyue were originally unwilling to accept it, but Mrs. Zhao's words made them embarrassed to refuse.

The two looked at each other, could only accept the hosta, stood up and bowed again.

"Thanks to the old lady's favor, we shamelessly accepted it."
