Huang gave birth to a daughter, although there are some regrets, but after all, she is her own, and she is still very happy. Although her nurse came back and said that Grandpa Guo was a little unhappy, Huang didn't care and was busy choosing a nurse for her daughter.

When his daughter was almost full moon, a battle report came from the front, Li Duan led the leading troops, won a big victory, and had recovered Qingcheng, which was just around the corner. When Grandpa Guo heard the news, his heart was relieved, and there was finally no danger, if Li Duan came back safely this time, he would let him give birth to a son as soon as possible, and leave a queen for the Guogong Mansion.

Lian Sheng was even more overjoyed, Lian Sheng praised this child for being blessed, and he brought good luck to his father when he was born. Huang is even happier, she is about to see her husband, and a good life for the family of three is just around the corner. When Lian got the good news, his illness was immediately cured, and he hurried to discuss with Huang how to celebrate the full moon for his little granddaughter. According to Qi Guogong's temperament, he didn't want to make a big deal, but this time it coincided with Li Duan's victory, and Grandpa Guo had no objection to Lian's wanton operation.

Lian's preparations were very careful, not only opening the banquet, but also inviting the troupe, juggling or something, and it was very lively. Although he was busy every day, drawing up the list of guests, and arranging the purchase and decoration, Lian was still very happy in his heart, and counted the days when his son came back.

Huang took good care of her body this month, and all kinds of supplements were sent to her room. After a month, I have grown a lot of fat, but I have gained a lot of weight. Although I regret that my husband can't attend my daughter's full moon banquet, I feel a lot relieved to see my mother-in-law do it so grandly.

And all this excitement has nothing to do with the real eldest lady of the Guogong Mansion, Sister Lian'er, Lian's impatience to take care of this child, under the pretext that the child cries and makes noise at night, she can't sleep, just when Sister Lian'er just turned three years old, she moved her to a small remote courtyard in the house, and only let the maid take care of her.

None of the subordinates in the house stepped on the low and praised the high, seeing that the Lian family treated Sister Lian like this, naturally they would not be very careful with this titular eldest lady. I don't talk about the bad food, and sometimes I can't eat enough. Sister Lian'er is congenitally weak, and she is even thinner and smaller than children of the same age. Sister Lian'er's nurse is a good-hearted person, and she often thinks of ways to get Sister Lian'er some delicious food. But she is also a subordinate, and her ability is limited, so Sister Lian'er's life is still not easy. The entire Guogong Mansion is busy for the full moon banquet of the second young lady, who will remember how the eldest lady is doing.

On the day of the full moon feast, the weather was very good, and the whole house was decorated with flowers. All kinds of fresh flowers, the Guogong Mansion is beautifully embellished. Guests arrived one after another, and the male guests were in the outer courtyard. Female guests in the inner courtyard. Huang wore a red gold-painted jacket with flowers and butterflies, reflecting her fair and plump face, a pink brocade skirt below, with an ingots bun on her head, five phoenix hairpins inserted, a huge ruby in the middle of the phoenix's mouth, a golden Yingluo collar on her chest, and a pair of good-textured mutton fat jade bracelets on her hands. The whole person looks magnificent, which attracts all the female guests to praise her, and she looks blessed.

The newborn second lady of the Guogong Mansion was white and fat, and the hundred sons who were covered in red satin were wrapped like a big red envelope, and she also wore a gold-inlaid jade longevity lock around her neck, which looked so cute. Just as everyone was about to take their seats, someone suddenly announced the arrival of the holy decree. Qi Guogong and Lian hurriedly arranged to receive the order, it turned out that the emperor knew the news of Li Duan's victory, and was very happy, and heard that Li Duan's youngest daughter was born, and his daughter was specially named the lord of Changling County. And he gave him golden locks, ruyi, and some palace things. This holy decree pushed this full moon banquet to the **, and everyone congratulated the grandfather and his wife, saying that these two young ladies must be fairies in the sky, which is really blessed.

The liveliness of this courtyard has nothing to do with Sister Lian'er who lives in a small courtyard. The people in the courtyard all ran to the front to watch the excitement and listen to the play. The nurse was afraid that there would be an accident today, so she was not allowed to go out, after all, Sister Lian was also a child, so she took advantage of the nurse's inattention and sneaked out. The Guogong Mansion is very large, although Sister Lian often follows the nurse out. After all, it's just a walk around. The first time I ran out, I was so excited that I couldn't find my way after walking for a while, and the people all ran to the front, and there was no one on this side of the garden. Sister Lian'er was a little scared for a while, and unconsciously walked farther away from her yard.

I don't know how long it took to walk, Sister Lian'er was really tired, but at this time she saw a big courtyard in front of her, and she happily walked over to see if there was anyone. But she found that the courtyard was quiet, but the door was hidden, so she pushed open the door and walked in. This courtyard is very beautifully arranged, and everything on the table is something that Sister Lian has never seen, and she is like walking into a labyrinth. As she walked, she entered a room, where a man was lying on the kang table and napping. Sister Lian tiptoed over to ask how the man could go back to her yard, but saw a pink baby lying in the cradle next to her. Children are always very interested in children, so they walked up to look at it for a while, and couldn't help but gently touch the baby's face with their hands, which was really fun.

But at this moment, there was a sound of hurried footsteps behind Sister Lian'er, and then she received a heavy slap in the face, which hit her with Venus in front of her eyes, and her left ear also buzzed.

"You bad-hearted stinky girl, what are you doing to your sister while I'm away?" When Huang's irritable voice sounded, Sister Lian found that she couldn't hear clearly, but Huang's flushed face made her tremble with fear, and she couldn't say a word. Huang slapped him and was still angry, so he raised his hand and slapped Sister Lian'er, and Sister Lian's cheeks on both sides suddenly became red and swollen. This is the nurse of the Huang family next to her, and she is afraid that the Huang family will really beat Sister Lian to a bad explanation, after all, Sister Lian is still the eldest lady in the house, so she hurriedly stopped:

"Madame's hand hurts carefully, let's go back and leave it to the Duchess to deal with. Huang also felt that he was too impatient at this time, so he snorted and went to see his daughter.

Seeing that the baby in the cradle was still sleeping peacefully, Huang relieved himself a little. Looking at Sister Lian's red and swollen cheeks and trembling thin body, Huang did not have a trace of pity and regret. just sent someone to send Sister Lian'er back, and said:

"Tell Sister Lian'er's nurse that if she dares to talk nonsense, let her be careful about her own life. ”

The nurse disappeared Sister Lian'er, she was anxious or something, she looked around and didn't see her, and she was about to cry in a hurry. As soon as he returned to his yard, he saw a maid leading Sister Lian back, and shouted Amitabha Buddha in his heart. But when she saw the two slap prints on Sister Lian'er's face, her heart ached.

Sister Lian never dared to cry, and only when she saw the nurse did she cry loudly, and the nurse hurriedly protected Sister Lian in her arms. I only heard the maid say:

"Grandma ordered, if you dare to say anything, let her hear, and be careful about your own life. ”

Only then did the nurse know that Sister Lian somehow ran to the yard of the eldest grandmother Huang, but she didn't know why she was beaten.

When the maid left, the nurse put a handkerchief dipped in cold water and put it on Sister Lian'er's face, and Sister Lian'er slowly stopped crying.

"Miss, what did you do in your mother's yard, and who beat you?"

Sister Lian shook her head blankly and looked at the nurse. The nurse thought that Sister Lian didn't hear clearly and asked again, but this time Sister Lian said:

"Nurse, I can't hear what you're talking about, it seems that mosquitoes are flying in my ears all the time, buzzing. ”

The nurse was startled when she heard this,

"Sister Lian, don't scare the nurse, can't you hear what the nurse said?"

Sister Lian still looked at the nurse blankly, the nurse looked at Sister Lian, and cried sadly, how can this child be so miserable, born in such a family, but he lives like this, and now he is deaf again, how can he live in the future. The nurse thought that she might be able to cure it if she found a doctor now, so she hurried to report to the Huang family. But Huang went to the front again, and after such a delay, it was already the next day when the doctor came.

Lian's family was tired and sick again because of yesterday's treat, and the Huang family sent someone to invite a doctor to see it, saying that although Sister Lian'er was not completely deaf, she couldn't recover much, and it would be like this in the future. Huang only said to Lian that the maids accidentally fell and drove out a few maids. When Lian heard it, he was already tired of this child, and now he didn't want to see Sister Lian. Poor the eldest lady of the Guogong Mansion became half deaf in this way, and the nurse had nothing to do but hold Sister Lian and cry all day long.

After another half a month, Li Duan still didn't come back, and there was no news. The people of the Guogong Mansion began to feel a little anxious again. In the middle of the night on this day, the emperor suddenly sent a message for the Duke of Qi to hurry into the palace, saying that there was an urgent military situation.

Qi Guogong didn't dare to slack off, changed his clothes, and immediately entered the palace. When they arrived at the door of the Qinzheng Palace, a eunuch went in to report to the emperor, and after a while, someone came out to announce the Duke of Qi.

After entering, the Duke of Qi knelt down and saluted, and the emperor waved his hand and signaled him to be flat.

"There's a war report from the frontier. We lost not only Qingcheng, but also Xincheng next to it. The Emperor said coldly.

"How can this be, didn't you say earlier that Qingcheng has been recovered?"

"How so? I have to ask your good son!" the Emperor asked with a sneer.

"Dogs?"

"See for yourself!" said the emperor, throwing the battle report on the table to the ground in front of Qi Guogong. Qi Guogong bent down to pick up the battle report, and slowly unfolded it with a trembling hand, the first few words Qi Guogong's eyes saw made him feel that his chest had been hit hard, and it was difficult to even breathe.
