49. Mutual affection

I'm depressed!

Didn't you pretend to be dead? How did you really die? I don't know if I was eaten...... I banged on the bed in grief and glared at the roof with resentment, thinking that sooner or later I would have to set this broken house on fire.

He sat up and looked disdainfully at the bedroom of the fourth master who stayed in for the first time, and there were still bookshelves, and there were four treasures of the study on the table next to him, why didn't I notice it last time? Oh, I was shocked by the two entangled figures.

Hearing the knock on the door, I hurriedly grabbed the quilt and wrapped it around my body, Yan Yu had already walked in and said with a smile: "Fujin, the slaves and maids have prepared hot water in the room, waiting for you to dress and go back to bathe." ”

I nodded in a daze, and asked while looking for clothes, "What time is it?" From yesterday to now, what is the matter in the house?

"It's okay in the house, you can rest assured. It's already time, the fourth master told us to wait early in the morning, don't come in and disturb your rest, Mei Yu and Ruyi have been guarding the door of this study for almost two hours, and they just replaced me. Yan Yu said as she picked up her clothes and walked to the side of the bed to put them down.

I looked back and forth, only to realize that it really looked like a study, and then I saw that sitting under me was actually a soft collapse under the window, and I actually slept here until three poles in the morning.

Hurriedly put on his clothes and took Yan Yu back to his room as if he were running away, nesting in the bathtub and trying to calm himself.

It turns out that Yinzhen is not stupid, he knows that I don't want to sleep in that bad house, but since he can take my mind into account, why can't he take Honghui back, is it possible to really think that the stinky boy who seems to be carved out of the same mold as him is not his flesh and blood?

Even if he goes crazy and wants to throw Honghui out of the house, he has to ask me if I agree!

Quickly climb out of the bathtub and get dressed neatly, and go to the palace to pick up your son!

~~~

I've been sitting on the chair in Yonghe Palace for an hour, and the conversation with Concubine De has gone from yesterday's Bafu gathering to the white hosta eight years ago, why can't I see Honghui's shadow?

"Teragetsu ......"

"Huh?" I looked at Concubine De's puzzled eyes, gritted my teeth and walked up to her and saluted, "Eniang...... A few days ago, because of the move to the new house, I was really busy, so I bothered my mother to help take care of Honghui, and now I have cleaned up, I don't dare to work hard anymore, and I came to pick up Honghui back today. These days have caused you trouble, it is really unfilial piety to my daughter-in-law, and I hope that my mother will be considerate and not blame. ”

Concubine De smiled and pulled me up, "What should I do, what trouble is there for my grandson, but it's just a few days to play with me, and it's too late for me to be happy." It's just that you came unfortunate today, and the emperor sent someone to pick it up early in the morning, and I don't know when to send it back. ”

As soon as I heard her say, I was relieved, as long as I was in the palace. smiled embarrassedly, and replied softly: "Actually, I'm not in a hurry to take it back, it's just that Honghui is too naughty, and I'm just afraid that I'm tired of worrying about it, so I hurriedly entered the palace today." Since Huang Ama took it, the daughter-in-law waited a little longer, and maybe someone would send someone back after a while. Don't laugh at Eniang, I really think about it if I don't see it for a few days, so I don't have to break the rules here. ”

Concubine De smiled and pulled me to sit on the couch, and then said softly: "It's a joke, they are all people who are mothers, how can they not understand your mind." Don't worry, Honghui can't stand the grievances in this palace, and the emperor likes it very much, so he called him over. If you really want to see it, you can talk to Eniang, and you will be back in a while. ”

"Xie Eniang is considerate. I nodded, and a clear female voice sounded from outside the door: "Fourth Belle has arrived, thirteenth elder brother has arrived, and fourteenth elder brother has arrived." ”

It's over, sneaking into the palace and being hit squarely. Although I had already thought of this possibility when I made this decision, and gritted my teeth and told myself that I had to bring Honghui back today no matter what, ...... When he went out, he was firm, but when he saw Yinzhen walk in the door, he still became a little empty.

Yinzhen only glanced at me, and then knelt down on one knee with the two younger brothers to salute Concubine De, "My son asks Eniang for peace, Eniang is auspicious." ”

Son, E-Niang, how can the three of them say exactly the same? Shouldn't Yinxiang call her Concubine De? When did she become E-Niang!

I know this allusion, but I don't know the process, I live here every day in vain, Yinzhen doesn't say it, even if Yinxiang doesn't know me, he doesn't take me seriously.

"Get up, sit down and rest, soothe the shadow, and serve tea to a few masters. The smile on Concubine De's face is quite genuine, but she picked up an eldest son for nothing, is it good or bad in this palace?

"Fourth sister-in-law, why did you enter the palace today, you want to Honghui ......"

I nodded embarrassedly, Yinzhen had already held a long voice and continued to tease: "It's still the fourth brother, wasn't they still together last night, why didn't they chase into the palace early in the morning." ”

The dead boy said it, and glanced at Yinzhen's mouth with a wicked smile, it's nothing special. But as soon as he said it, he couldn't help but think of the scene when he woke up in the study in the morning, his face suddenly burned, and when he lowered his head, he heard Concubine De say half seriously and half with a smile: "Yinzhen, don't make trouble with your fourth sister-in-law, you don't have a family and no children, so you don't understand, your fourth sister-in-law wants to Honghui, and I want to take him back when I entered the palace today." ”

E-Niang said yes, last night she was still talking about asking her son to take Honghui back, but she didn't expect her son to say it today, she was so anxious that she ran over and let E-Niang and her younger brothers laugh. ”

Is it really fake? Today Yinzhen wants to take Honghui back to his home? Then why didn't you want me yesterday.

Yinzhen got up from the chair and walked straight to the couch where Concubine De and I were sitting, pointed at Yinxiang and Yinzhen and continued: "Eniang, although the fourteenth brother is still young, the thirteenth brother should marry Fujin. ”

What is he doing? Is it honorable to marry a daughter-in-law at the age of thirteen? Even if he likes to, he still wants to be someone else's master. However, although Yinxiang is young, his psychological age has long been exceeded, and it doesn't matter if he doesn't marry, but there are still some suspicions of old cows eating tender grass. I just don't know what Yinxiang thinks about this matter himself, after all, men and women think differently, is he happy? I looked at Yinxiang who was sitting upright in the chair, and was actually observing Yinzhen at this time, did he also feel that this fourth brother was sick.

"The fourth brother is right, Yinxiang is also thirteen this year, don't worry, since the emperor has handed you over to me to take care of, he will naturally help you think about this matter, and I will definitely find a good one for you. ”

Yinxiang didn't seem to care, and bowed to Concubine De and replied: "Lao Eniang bothered, but her son is still in the filial piety period, and this matter is not in a hurry." ”

Concubine De heard this and saw Yinxiang become sad, took a handkerchief and wiped it under his eyes, and then said to him in a soft tone: "I was negligent, wait a minute, I'll talk to your emperor Ama and see what it means." Yinxiang, although your mother is gone, she definitely can't let go of you in her heart, you still have to let go of your heart, and she is also at ease. ”

Yinxiang lowered his head and didn't speak, the room suddenly became quiet, and Concubine De opened her mouth to break the gloomy atmosphere, "Today is your mother's 100 days, but have you gone to Yongshou Palace to worship?" If it hasn't passed, I will ask Shuying to prepare some sacrifices, and let your fourth brother and Fourteen go with you, and it will be regarded as my dedication to Sister Min." If you need anything from now on, just open your mouth, just like Fourteen. ”

"Thank you. Yinxiang bowed to Concubine De before turning to the two brothers and said, "Then bother the fourth brother and the fourteenth brother to accompany me." ”

"It should. ”

"The thirteenth brother is outside. ”

I watched Shuying carry a basket of fruits, snacks, incense, candles, ingots and other sacrifices, followed the three brothers out of the door, and sighed in my heart, this is no blood relationship, no one can think of me, even if I think of it, I have to avoid suspicion, so I sat on the couch honestly, accompanied Concubine De and waited for Honghui to appear.

"Honghui is almost three years old, right?" Concubine De took a sip of tea, gently fastened the lid of the cup, and the crisp sound made me quickly refreshed.

"I will be three years old in half a year. ”

"The days go by so fast, that year Yinzhen brought you over to salute in front of me, just like what happened yesterday, it's twenty-one in a blink of an eye. ”

Concubine De's expression was a little illusory, what was she trying to say?

Who knew that she didn't want to wait for me to reply, and said to herself: "Don't say that in this palace, even ordinary people's families pay attention to having many sons and blessings, let alone the prince." The third child already has two sons, not to mention that he is one year older than Yinzhen, that is, Yinqi and Yinyou, which are not three or four children circling in front of him. Now that the house is divided, I can't see you on weekdays, so let's be more attentive to myself. ”

"Yes, the daughter-in-law that Eniang said wrote it down. "Listening to Concubine De's words, my head bowed again and again, and I dare to compare this matter with my brothers, if she doesn't say that I have forgotten that those princes are so capable of giving birth, so it seems that Yinzhen only has Honghui and Shushen, but it does seem inferior to people.

Looking at Concubine De's lack of interest, and thinking about what she said just now, although I was still worried about Honghui in my heart, I couldn't sit still, and stood up and whispered before the collapse: "It's not early, don't dare to disturb Eniang's rest, my daughter-in-law will go back first." ”

Concubine De nodded, closed her eyes, leaned back, "You go back." ”

I had no choice but to return in vain.

Walking slowly on the palace road, I felt a lot stranger, maybe I haven't regarded this place as a place to live, so I haven't seriously integrated in, I would rather guard the small courtyard every day, but it is the Baylor Mansion that I have lived for not many days that has cost me a lot of thought.

Heir...... Concubine De's words lingered in my ears from time to time, and I could feel her disappointment, but how could I change this kind of thing, I really wanted to have another one, but what if I didn't. As for other women, it depends on that man, not me, after all, no matter how uncomfortable I feel in my heart, I have never stopped him.

When a small courtyard door stood in front of me, I realized that I had unconsciously walked to the small courtyard where I had lived, stretched out my hand and gently pushed it open, and it was still the same as when we moved out.

I walked to the chair that I had given Yinzhen to the front hall for the first time, and imagined how he looked at that time and sat up, as if I saw the scene of the young me standing in the center of the hall and talking to the Lanth sisters, what was Yinzhen's expression at that time?

The tables and chairs in the dining room are still there, I still remember the excitement when the old eight and three brothers ate with us when we celebrated Yinxiang's birthday, was Yinzhen making trouble with me at that time?

Lansi's room, Jingzhu's, mine, I have been in every room here, and I have staged entanglements between me and them, for the same man and their respective children, did Yinzhen ever suspect me at that time?

The upright figure in front of the study was the boy I forced into the door back then? I used to ask him domineeringly for something that originally belonged to him, and now he really gave it to me, why did all the things that flashed in my mind be unhappy past, and I couldn't remember so many happy things.

I couldn't open my eyes from the oncoming sunlight, and the shadow became clearer and clearer as I walked towards the study. He was much taller than the boy back then, and the lines on his face were more distinct, but he couldn't see his expression clearly.

When I trotted over to a stop in front of him, he gave me a smiling face.

"What are you doing standing here?"

"Waiting for you. ”

"What if I don't come? What if I go home?"

"You're here. ”

Well, the language is not romantic, but the behavior and expression make me very tempted, and the unhappiness of the past two or three days has been strangely smoothed out.

"What are you waiting for me to do?"

"Whatever you want. ”

I frowned at the familiar face in front of me that was gradually returning to its old expression, what did this mean? He should know that I have been unhappy these days, and I also understand his depression, and I can even understand that he should be more entangled and uncomfortable as a man than I am. But throw me that, what does he want to do? If it's to communicate, I haven't figured out how to explain it to him, if not, what can I do? Can he scold me as he pleases?

Honghui ...... "The only thing I can think of is this matter, whether he will ignore me again, or refuse."

Yinzhen actually nodded, "Yinxiang went to find it, send it back later, if it doesn't work today, I'll come and pick him up tomorrow." ”

I looked at him with wide eyes, he had already done it, and listening to the meaning of his words, I no longer suspected Yinxiang. Just now in Yonghe Palace, he looked like he was begging for Yinxiang's daughter-in-law, why did he become another person so well?

"What's wrong with you?"

"What is there to ask when you take your son home? If you don't want to, let him stay in the palace for a few more days. Yin Zhen glanced at me, and after sternly speaking, he lifted the hem of his robe and was about to go out.

I grabbed his hand, gritted my teeth and said, "Don't think about it, I'll go back today." ”

When he hurried to the gate of the courtyard, he heard him mutter, "You didn't drag me here that year." ”
