Chapter 748 Chapter 748
In fact, Song Guanzhou was not pretending to be cute. It was just that in Shaohua Garden, Rendong and the maids and old women took care of her like a waste, and Pei An never criticized her for being polite.
Being idle every day actually brought out the wild temperament from the previous life.
She forgot that in the presence of a noble, not only walking, sitting, lying down, but even taking things all had certain postures.
It looks like a child cricket pupa, and is indeed not worthy of being presented in a formal setting.
Qin Ruzhang usually disciplines the women in the Eastern Palace. If he encounters a palace maid or concubine like Song Guanzhou, he will definitely reprimand her.
The punishment may be a verbal warning at the least and a punishment at the most severe.
She has been in the palace for many years. Although she is easy-going, she cannot tolerate any flaws. The palace rules are stricter than those in front of the Empress Dowager and the Empress.
Perhaps because he was usually so serious and thought it was just a standard etiquette, but when he saw Song Guanzhou's naive look, he was not only tolerant but also happy.
"Guan Zhou, I know it's inappropriate to ask you to come in like this today, but there are some things that cannot be disturbed by others, so I have to inconvenience you."
After saying that, she gently stroked Song Guanzhou's double buns.
There is quite a bit of pity in it.
"Your Majesty, don't despise me—"
"There's no one else here, so you don't have to be so careful. Just watch the boat at ease."
Thanks to Qin Qingdong's gossip, the Crown Princess more or less understood that the daughter-in-law of the Pei family was a lively person and not the kind of pedantic and ignorant woman.
When Song Guanzhou heard this, his eyes began to roll around.
Instead, I didn't dare to speak.
What kind of freedom?
Song Guanzhou was afraid that his casualness would offend the noble person in front of him. He looked down and saw the bulging pregnant belly, and reminded her again and again to be careful with her words.
Qin Ruzhang was very smart. From the look in her eyes and the cautious expression on her face, he knew that Song Guanzhou was meeting him for the first time and was in awe.
Who doesn’t like the respect of others!
Qin Ruzhang smiled softly, took Song Guanzhou's hand and stroked it gently, "Don't be so restrained in front of your sister. Just treat me the same way you treat your mother and sister-in-law."
Really?
Song Guanzhou asked with his eyes, causing Qin Ruzhang to laugh heartily.
She felt the calluses on Song Guanzhou's fingertips and was slightly stunned. "How could such a pretty and delicate girl have calluses?"
Song Guanzhou let down his guard.
He said with a smile, "Your Majesty, you don't know that I have been helping the Xiao family with their accounts these days, using an abacus every day."
"From what Erlang said, Guan Zhou is quite good at mathematics."
"Your Majesty, I am too kind. It is just my own little hobby. I don't have much ability. I just pass the time."
Song Guanzhou had a pretty face, and her smile made her even more stunning. As Qin Ruzhang looked at her face and spoke, the dark clouds that had been gathering in his heart for days seemed to be dispersed by the breeze.
"Just to kill time?"
Those accounts sound overwhelming, but Qin Ruzhang knew that Song Guanzhou was being modest.
Unexpectedly, Song Guanzhou had a mischievous look in his eyes, and he leaned his head slightly towards Qin Ruzhang, neither confronting him nor seeming to be too close.
"My lady, Xiao Wu promised me a three-story house in Jiangzhou."
Qin Ruzhang listened, his eyebrows relaxed and his eyes opened, with more doting, "It's a big deal in Jiangzhou City."
Song Guanzhou nodded repeatedly.
"My queen, although I have never been to Jiangzhou, my aunt and my brothers and sisters-in-law from the Xiao family said that the scenery is very beautiful, the people are kind, and every spring and summer, the city is full of flying flowers. So I helped Xiao Wu with the accounts, and he helped me find a beautiful courtyard, so that it would be cheap to go to Jiangzhou in the future."
“It sounds very exciting.”
"My lady, when I first met you, I thought you were very beautiful. That's exactly what I meant." Song Guanzhou reported the truth. Qin Ruzhang was curious, "What do you mean?"
"The country is peaceful and the people are safe! Your Majesty sits on the throne. When she doesn't smile, she is shrouded in auspicious light. She is dignified and graceful, with a beautiful figure. When your face is relaxed and your eyes are bright, it makes people feel that spring has come to the earth and the mother earth has come to the world. In the prosperous times, I can see your face and feel that the country is peaceful and prosperous."
Song Guanzhou knew that in modern times, the phrase "国泰民安" was used to describe a woman with a dignified and graceful appearance.
But in ancient times, it was not described like this——
She spent some time choosing words and sentences and finished her speech in an orderly manner. Although she didn't know whether Qin Ruzhang understood her or not, she had a graceful smile on her face and didn't seem to be perfunctory.
After a moment, Qin Ruzhang gently patted the back of Song Guanzhou's hand, with a bit of doting in his eyes.
"Guanzhou's little mouth is unusual."
Qin Ruzhang was so amused that she laughed continuously. Song Guanzhou looked over and said, "Your Majesty, you are in charge of the Eastern Palace, which must be tiring for you physically and mentally. If you don't have anyone to talk to and don't mind being a commoner, please call me in. By the way, I feel quite comfortable in this outfit today."
After saying that, she stood up, turned around in front of Qin Ruzhang and started showing off.
"I don't need to wear a hairpin to make a bun, I don't need to put on makeup, my clothes are simple, and I can run and jump without any restrictions. It's quite comfortable."
"Don't you think the maid's outfit is too shabby?"
Song Guanzhou covered his mouth and shook his head, "Madam, I am a servant girl with status."
"Ok?"
It was hard for Qin Ruzhang not to be curious. Song Guanzhou started to talk, "Before entering the palace, Qin Er, Chun Ge'er and I sorted out some things. Now my name is Zhou'er, and I am the most favored little maid in the old lady's room. I am loved by the old lady and the first lady, and I am spoiled very much. No one in the mansion can bully me. If someone interrogates Chun Ge'er, Chun Ge'er has to pretend to be worried and call me little aunt."
puff!
Qin Ruzhang couldn't help himself any longer, and stretched out his slender finger to lightly touch Song Guanzhou's forehead, "No wonder mother was so happy when she mentioned you. If I had you by my side every day, I would definitely not have any worries."
Song Guanzhou waved his hands quickly, "My dear queen, if I were to follow my aunt around every day, I'm afraid I'd be beaten three times a day, and it wouldn't help my aunt dislike me."
"How can I bear to hit you? Seeing you happy is not enough."
"My lady, has Qin Er not told you that whenever I quarrel with him, he always gets so angry that he walks away in anger?"
Having said that, he stood up and learned it in a circle.
"He obviously likes narrow sleeves, but he wants to wear wide sleeves. Every time he turns his head away, people can't help but feel uncomfortable looking at him. But he still thinks he is so suave and handsome."
Qin Ruzhang was not angry at all when he heard her talk about his brother's embarrassing moments.
He sighed, "You and Shiro treated him well, and he will remember it in his heart."
"Of course."
Song Guanzhou sat down again, and felt that he had brought the casualness of Shaohua Garden to the East Palace. The orphan was a little embarrassed, and he stuck out his tongue lightly, trying to hide his embarrassment. "Everyone has a temper. Qin Er and I can quarrel or argue, but we can always agree on something. It's not about romance, but we have similar tastes."
