Chapter 14: The Mansion of the State of Wei
Compared with the four seasons of Wanjin City, the winter in Fujian and Beijing is unacceptable, especially with a smile and a child, Xiao Di is quite worried about this, and ignited the kang fire dragon early, the bed is covered with a thick futon, and the soft couch where Hanxiao often sits is also covered with thick fur cushions.
For Xiao Di's worries and kindness, she smiled without hesitation, although she didn't need it. After all, she is also the seventh layer of internal strength cultivation now, and she is also a second-rate little master in the rivers and lakes, of course, there is still a big gap compared to Xiao Di's ninth layer of internal strength, but it is enough to just keep out the cold.
β¦β¦
Most of the servants brought by Han Xiao when she married are cultivating internal strength, Hongdan has now cultivated only the sixth layer of the day after tomorrow, the green banana is the seventh layer of the day after tomorrow, Qinghe and Lanyang have not improved much, they are still the seventh layer of the day after tomorrow, and others like Qingsha and Yinluo are mostly around the third layer of the day after tomorrow. As for the steward, Chi Xuanqi is now on the eighth floor of the day after tomorrow, which is the highest level of cultivation; among the rest of the people, Shui Chenhong, who is in charge of intelligence, and Shui Lianhe, who is in charge of security, have reached the peak of the seventh layer; and the slightly inferior Water Embedding and Water End Building have also reached the realm of the sixth layer the day after tomorrow. These people can establish a small force on the rivers and lakes!
Xiao Di was secretly taken aback when he first saw these people, he didn't expect that there were so many martial artists around his newlywed wife, and there were even many masters, so he specially sent someone to investigate. Later, I learned that the Qingzhou Shui family has a family tradition of superior martial arts "Nine Watermark Jue", it is said that the father-in-law Shui Changxiao has loved to practice martial arts since childhood, but because of the limitation of qualifications, he has not made great achievements in martial arts, and he is unwilling, and then by chance he exchanged a lot of money in the black market for a martial arts secret book called "Chasing Clouds", and his father-in-law then ordered everyone in the house to practice martial arts, and the master of the Shui family practiced the "Ninefold Watermark Formula" handed down by the family, and others had their own exercises to practice their own exercises, and those who did not have exercises practiced "Chasing Clouds" , there are people in the house who specially explain this secret book, so that everyone can cultivate;
Cultivation has a small success can be reused, the promotion and salary increase of the water mansion give priority to people with higher martial arts, it is estimated that Shui Changxiao is thinking that he will always be able to find a few good qualifications, and when the time comes, he will focus on training, and he will always be able to cultivate a few masters, but he did not expect that the good qualifications have not been found, but the overall strength of the people in the house has improved a lot. After so many years, there are few real top masters, but there are many second-rate ones, and even there are several first-class ones. Now the strength of Shuifu is definitely the best in the rivers and lakes.
Xiao Di was amazed when he looked at the information, Jue's father-in-law did not treat the cheats as cheats in this way, and he was very wealthy! Ordinary people get a martial arts cheats book and basically treat it as a family heirloom, but the father-in-law is good, the family martial arts can't be passed on, so he buys it with a lot of money outside, and then lets everyone practice, but this is also a very fast way to cultivate a force.
In this way, it seems that Shui Hanxiao is surrounded by all martial artists, and it is understandable that there are even so many masters.
As for why Hanxiao didn't practice martial arts, it should be limited by qualifications! Xiao Di thought secretly. Seeing Hanxiao practicing swords every day, I thought that Hanxiao's qualifications were not good but she was unwilling to give up practicing martial arts, and she felt even more pity for Hanxiao.
It's also strange to say, Shui Hanxiao has also practiced martial arts since childhood, and now she has become a little successful, Xiao Di and Hanxiao have shared the same bed for so long, but they have not found the details of Hanxiao, and Hanxiao is also a little puzzled in her heart, but she attributes this to the special cultivation of exercises. It's not that it's intentionally concealed, it's too troublesome to explain, and it also involves the particularity of the eyes. Xiao Di didn't ask about this, and Han Xiao didn't take the initiative to explain, of course, if Xiao Di asked, Han Xiao didn't plan to hide it.
This secret formed a misunderstanding when one party was considerate and the other party was scruples;
β¦β¦
Bathed in the warm winter sunshine, holding hot tea in his hand with a smile, smelling the milk fragrance in the tea, half lying on the soft couch in front of the window, squinting happily, feeling that life is so beautiful.
"Hey, I'm talking to you, don't you run away, okay?" Seeing Hanxiao so happy and comfortable, the visiting guests felt dissatisfied and protested directly.
Xiaoxiao glanced at Shui Hanwu lazily, and said to the little maid Nunu who served next to him, the little maid understood, and hurriedly went out to ask someone to move over a soft couch, with a thick fur cushion on it, respectfully invited Shui Hanwu to sit down, and then served a cup of hot tea with his hands and feet, Shui Hanwu was slightly satisfied, and learned to smile and half-lie on the soft couch, feeling the warmth under his body and the sunshine shining on his body, and squinted his eyes comfortably.
"You're going to enjoy it. Shui Hanwu sighed a little, this kind of half-lying and half-sitting posture is absolutely not allowed in her education, but looking at Hanmi's appearance, Shui Hanwu doesn't mind trying, and she is not the kind of rigid person who doesn't know how to be flexible.
"There's nothing going on left and right, and it's not a big deal to be as comfortable as possible. Said with a smile and didn't care. is completely different from Shui Hanwu, Xiaoxiao was not strictly raised, she always did what she wanted, as long as she was not rude or hurtful, and there were no other taboos. Shui Changxiao has always been indulgent to her, Xiao Di has no requirements for her, as long as she is happy, she can do whatever she wants;
Shui Hanwu has a certain degree of understanding of Hanxiao's situation, and is deeply envious of it.
"The housewife is not in charge of the family affairs or Yinluo, you can rest assured?!" Which housewife does not hold the power of the family tightly in her hands, lest she be seized of power, the Duke of Wei is still good, the Duchess of Guo has always been kind to Shui Hanwu, but she still holds most of the power in her hands;
"What's not to worry about! Yinluo has been learning housekeeping from his father's steward since he was a child, and these things are all familiar with the road, and they are very simple! If I do it, I will definitely not be as good as hers. He said with a smile that he had a clear positioning for his housekeeping ability.
"Eighth Uncle specializes in cultivating Yinluo's housekeeping ability?" Shui Hanwu was a little surprised, she had never heard of someone who specialized in cultivating a little maid housekeeper.
"It's not Dad, it's me. Smiled and corrected seriously.
"When I was a child, my father asked me to take care of the yard where I lived, and I was too lazy to worry about it, so I asked my father to send a housekeeper to teach me, and then I caught Yinluo and listened to the class with me, and finally Yinluo learned. With a smile, he felt that his current leisurely life was due to the foresight at that time, and he couldn't help but be proud.
Shui Hanwu was dumbfounded: "Eighth Uncle doesn't care about you?"
"At first, my father didn't know it! Anyway, I completed all the tasks he gave me, and I got better and better, and my father was very happy to see my progress day by day? Later, I found out, I was so angry, but I didn't want to do it! Dad had no choice but to give me all these people. Then there are also many people who are arranged to follow them to study, in case they have to leave in the future, and someone can be on top at any time. β
Shui Hanwu listened to the explanation with a smile, imagining that Eighth Uncle Shui Changxiao was as dumbfounded and helpless as himself, not only snorted and was happy.
Hanxiao knew what Hanwu was laughing at at a glance, and she didn't mind, and of course she wasn't embarrassed.
The cheeks that were ridiculed by my brothers and sisters before were already very thick, and Shui Hanwu was such a small ridicule without malice, and his smiling face was not blushing.
Laughing, Shui Hanwu remembered Hanxiao's suggestion before, and took advantage of this time to simply ask: "Sister, you suggested that I contact our aunt and grandmother more before, why did you do this? She married so far away, she didn't see each other once in a few years." Isn't it a waste of time that I don't know each other well, and no matter how close the relationship is, it won't be too close?"
Hanxiao glanced at Hanwu slightly, and said with a smile: "You've only met him a few times!"
"I don't seem to have seen it a few times, she was already married to Cangzhou when I got married. β
"I don't know her, how can you be intimate with her!"
"Ahh
Hanxiao glanced at Hanwu, and couldn't help laughing: "My sister is not familiar with her, but my brother-in-law is familiar with her! My sister contacted her completely to understand her situation, what can I ask my brother-in-law to help!"
Misty still didn't understand the point of Hanxiao's words.
With a smile, he simply said: "Mrs. Qiao is the eldest daughter of Wei Guogong's original wife, and she is the treasure that Guogong holds in the palm of her hand!
"You can get the love of the country. Hanwu subconsciously replied, and suddenly understood.
But Hanwu still didn't believe it in her heart, "How do you know that my father-in-law dotes on my aunt and grandmother, I have never heard my father-in-law mention her all these years." β
"For some people, the more important it is, the more important it is to keep it in mind, not on the lips. With a smile, she shifted her body and changed to a more comfortable posture. Now that Hanxiao is a little nostalgic, she is a little more cautious between actions.
Hanwu thought about it carefully, and Jue's smile was right, his father-in-law is that kind of person, and the more important things and people are, the more he hides them in his heart and doesn't say it. Suddenly thinking of something, his face changed: "Isn't that father-in-law very dissatisfied with his mother-in-law?
With a smile on her face, she didn't speak. Besides, it involves some things in the Wei Guogong Mansion, Hanxiao is an outsider, it is inconvenient to say anything, and Guogong and Guogong are the elders of Hanwu.
Hanwu suddenly thought that when he entered the door, he heard people say that the relationship between his father-in-law and mother-in-law was very good, and his father-in-law also respected his mother-in-law, but he really got along with him, but he felt that there was always a sense of disobedience between them, at that time, his aunt had just married far away, and his father-in-law had a knot in his mother-in-law since that time, and there was less respect;
In the fog of winter, I suddenly felt very hot on my body.
"Sister, don't worry, things haven't reached the worst step. Seeing this, he hurriedly comforted.
Misty took a deep breath, calmed down, and said, "That's right, things haven't gotten to the worst yet. Then he looked at him and said with a smile: "Sister, the recipe I brought over is said to be used by the ladies in the palace, and the nourishing effect and taste are not bad, sister might as well try it, I'll go back first today." Don't thank you for your kindness, if you have anything to help with, just say it. β
He nodded with a smile of understanding, stood up, and was stopped by Hanwu: "You don't have to come down, just lie down, Hongdan will send me out." β
Hanxiao didn't refuse, and did it again, looking at the back of Hanxiao who was far away, and then looked at the snow outside the window, and sighed: "Spring is coming!"
A rush of footsteps came from afar, and a smile looked up, and a little maid ran over in a panic.
Green Banana frowned and stepped forward to ask, "What's the matter?"
"Sister Lujiao, the big thing is not good, I heard the report from the outer court, the queen mother had an attack in advance. β
Green Banana was stunned, isn't it just over eight months?
"I don't know the specifics, but I just heard the people in the outer courtyard say: 'It seems that I was angry with Concubine Li when I was walking in the imperial garden, and I had a seizure when I returned to Chengqian Palace. ββ
Lu Jiao didn't ask in detail, and said, "Let's go down!" I felt in my heart, although the queen's affairs were important, but they didn't have much to do with the Hou Mansion and the little master, so there was no need to pay too much attention to it, just know.
Xiaoxiao still sat there and watched the gradually melting snow outside the window, as if she didn't hear it, or even if she did, it didn't affect anything.
When it was time for dinner, Xiao Di didn't come back, and ate alone with a smile;
During the break, Xiao Di didn't come back, this was the first time after Hanxiao was pregnant, and the maids in the house couldn't help but be a little overwhelmed, and they didn't know if they should call Hou Ye. Xiaoxiao didn't say anything, and lay down directly on the warm kang.
ββThe sky is big, and the sleep is the biggest!
