Chapter 211: A Little Episode at the Dinner Table
The time of dinner every day is the most lively time in Zhufu, because the family gathers in the flower hall. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
After there are more women in the house, they are all competing for favor, this one said that he had carefully prepared food and hoped that Zhu Yuanzhang would go to her yard, and the one who was directly carrying a food box was blocked in the middle of the road...... There are countless similar things, and Zhu Yuanzhang is often in a dilemma. Ma Xiuying made a decision directly after knowing it, and all the wives and concubines ate meals with Zhu Yuanzhang in the flower hall, and they were not allowed to open a small stove alone without special reasons.
Now it seems that this militarization method is still quite effective, which can not only resolve Zhu Yuanzhang's embarrassment, but also make the family more harmonious, at least on the surface, everyone can't find any fault, and Zhu's mansion is also a lot more peaceful.
"Madam, Chang Yuchun came to me today, I see him as an ape arm good shooter, arm strength is outstanding, really a rare talent. Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and picked a chopstick fish meat into Ma Xiuying's bowl, and said dotingly: "Eat more, you are two people now." ”
Although she passed the most severe stage of pregnancy reaction, Ma Xiuying still didn't like to eat fish, so she picked the fish away in disgust, frowning, "I don't want to be greasy, it will be uncomfortable when I smell fishy, you can eat it." ”
"Okay, no, no. Zhu Yuanzhang hurriedly asked people to remove all the chicken, duck and fish, leaving only a few plates of vegetarian dishes, and he picked some green vegetables again and put them in Ma Xiuying's bowl.
"Alas, I don't eat it, they can eat it, it's such a waste!" Ma Xiuying couldn't stop it, complaining on her lips, but she couldn't help but feel a little happy in her heart for Zhu Yuanzhang's careful attitude.
"They don't like to eat greasy either, right?" Zhu Yuanzhang took the place of several people, "It won't be wasted, I asked the servants to bring these meat dishes to Wen Zheng and them, those boys are growing their bodies and eating a lot." ”
heard that it was for Zhu Wenzheng and them, so Ma Xiuying no longer dissuaded them. Recently, she has been unwell and rarely cares about the living conditions of her three children, thinking that she is not as careful as Zhu Yuanzhang, and she can't help but feel a little ashamed.
Guo Ninglian and Li Qi'er were stunned, and reluctantly squeezed out a smile and said, "Sister, we don't like to eat greasy, you eat more, leave us alone." ”
"Master, I'm full, my head hurts a little, so I'll go back to the room first. Guo Hui put down the chopsticks, and after saying it with an expressionless face, he got up and left. After entering the door, Zhu Yuanzhang doted on her, she thought that the first person in Zhu Yuanzhang's heart was her, who knew that Zhu Yuanzhang ignored her as soon as he saw Ma Xiuying, so she didn't want to watch the two kiss me and show affection in the flower hall. Hmph, isn't it just that she is pregnant with a child, what's the big deal, when she is pregnant, she must overpower Ma Xiuying.
Zhu Yuanzhang's hand stopped in mid-air, his smile was gone, and he stared at Guo Hui's back without saying a word. Guo Hui didn't know that she was not doing this to sweep Ma Xiuying's face but to slap Zhu Yuanzhang's face, even if Zhu Yuanzhang loved her again, Ma Xiuying was the housewife of Zhu's house, and if she didn't give Ma Xiuying face, she wouldn't give Zhu Yuanzhang face. So much so that Zhu Yuanzhang was thinking about whether he spoiled her a little too much, and he should snub her for a while.
Guo Ninglian looked at Zhu Yuanzhang, and then at Ma Xiuying, stuck out her tongue, and secretly rejoiced that Guo Hui was going to be unlucky.
Li Qi'er lowered her head and chewed slowly, like an invisible person, and it was not her turn to speak as a concubine on such an occasion.
"Don't do that next time, or I won't be able to eat with everyone. Ma Xiuying blamed Zhu Yuanzhang, and seeing his gloomy face, she hurriedly changed the topic, "You said that Chang Yuchun came to take refuge in you? Is it really Chang Yuchun, one of the three big heroes?"
"Yes, this person really has the courage, and he will be an official ...... as soon as he comes" Speaking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang smiled again and told the story of Chang Yuchun's self-recommendation.
Guo Ninglian, who was originally a little uneasy, was also fascinated when she heard this, and when she heard that Chang Yuchun was actually a great hero of the world, she couldn't help but ask in surprise: "Sister, how do you know that this person is very powerful? Have you ever seen him?"
"This, this...... This is not something that has been heard. In the past, my stepfather was recruiting troops everywhere, and I heard them mention who was powerful and who had the ability, and then I remembered it. I want to see Chang Yuchun, I have already asked him to take refuge in the master, why wait until now......" Ma Xiuying was so hesitant that she almost bit her tongue.
"Oh, that's the case, did they mention whether my two brothers are powerful?" Guo Ninglian's thoughts quickly jumped to her relatives.
How could Ma Xiuying remember the fate of every general around Zhu Yuanzhang, and said vaguely: "Guo Ying and Guo Xing's skills still need to be mentioned by others?
"Of course, I think the brothers are very powerful, but my father said that there are people outside the sky, and he asked the two brothers to practice martial arts. Speaking of which, Guo Ninglian's phoenix eyes glanced at Zhu Yuanzhang, the master of the brothers is Zhu Yuanzhang, if the elder brother can be crowned a king and a marquis, will Zhu Yuanzhang really become the emperor?
Li Qi'er listened quietly to everyone's conversation, but her eyes involuntarily fell on Ma Xiuying's belly. Ma Xiuying was originally deeply loved by Zhu Yuanzhang, and now that she is pregnant, she is cared for by Zhu Yuanzhang, and the birth of a child in the future will make her status more and more unshakable. This woman is really lucky, she was protected by Yao Tianxi in the past, and now she is spoiled by Zhu Yuanzhang, when will she be as happy as her...... Li Qi'er slowly looked away, slowly burying a trace of unwillingness and jealousy in the depths of her heart.
Seeing that everyone had almost eaten, Ma Xiuying said: "Husband, Sister Guo Hui only ate a little bit and went back to the room, is she not feeling well, you can go and see her later." She had just passed the door, and there were probably many things she wasn't used to. ”
"Hmph!" Zhu Yuanzhang didn't want to deal with the wayward Guo Hui, but when he saw Ma Xiuying's frequent eyes, he suddenly realized that Guo Tianxu's generals and his generals could get along peacefully because of this marriage, and it was really not good for the two armies to snub Guo Hui at the juncture of the expedition, he nodded, "Just go after eating." ”
"Sister, why are you ......" Guo Ninglian pouted, things were beyond her expectations, why didn't Ma Xiuying take the opportunity to let Zhu Yuanzhang snub Guo Hui and help Guo Hui speak? Among all women, she hates Guo Hui the most, Ma Xiuying herself can't serve Zhu Yuanzhang, and she shouldn't push Zhu Yuanzhang to Guo Hui, and she thinks that Zhu Yuanzhang doesn't favor Guo Hui. Now who doesn't see Ma Xiuying happy, who doesn't want to have a child as soon as possible, if Guo Hui had a child before her, she wouldn't be half angry.
"Sister Guo Hui has just married into our family, and you, who are a sister, have to take care of more. Ma Xiuying patted the back of Guo Ninglian's hand and persuaded her. In fact, in her heart, she felt that Guo Ninglian was only fifteen years old and it was too dangerous to be a mother, and it was better to be safer for a year or two at night. But she can only think about it and can't say it, otherwise others will think that she is suppressing the women in the house.
The sentence "sister" made Guo Ninglian feel comfortable, no matter how domineering Guo Hui was, as long as she entered the door one day later than herself, she had to call her sister when she saw herself.
Li Qi'er looked at the two silently, and sneered in her heart, Ma Xiuying's move not only showed her generosity, but also balanced Zhu Yuanzhang's love for several wives and concubines, only a simple little girl like Guo Ninglian was kept in the dark. If you want to compete for favor under Ma Xiuying's nose, don't even think about it.
said that Zhu Yuanzhang walked to Guo Hui's courtyard, but he didn't see her to greet her, and when he asked, he learned that she went to the residence of Da Zhang's family in the outer courtyard.
Guo Hui married into the Zhu family, Guo Tianxu was afraid that her girl would be extroverted and biased towards Zhu Yuanzhang, so she asked Da Zhang's family to move back to the mansion with Guo Yun shamelessly, and closely monitor Zhu Yuanzhang's movements. It's just that Guo Hui is already Zhu Yuanzhang's wife and can no longer live in the guest room, so he lives alone in the inner courtyard and is not with Da Zhang and Guo Yun. At this moment, when she went to Da Zhang's residence, she must have felt wronged and bitter.
is also Guo Zixing's daughter, why is the difference so big? Before getting married, Zhu Yuanzhang had a lot of reveries about Guo Hui, but after getting married, this feeling gradually flattened, and every time he had more contact with Guo Hui, the imaginary fairy-like image in his heart was shattered, and he only saw vanity, domineering, stinginess, and jealousy in Guo Hui...... Alas, he doesn't expect Guo Hui to help him in every detail like Ma Xiuying, as long as Guo Hui does his duty in this family, he won't care about some small problems. Thinking about it, he leaned against the head of the bed and gradually closed his eyes.
"Master, why are you here?" Guo Hui's surprised and happy voice interrupted Zhu Yuanzhang's fake sleep. Seeing Zhu Yuanzhang's extremely accommodating attitude towards Ma Xiuying, Guo Hui couldn't hide the jealousy and anger in his heart, and ran to Da Zhang's to complain about his grievances without eating. Unexpectedly, she was scolded by Da Zhang's family, blaming her for not running to her mother's family to cry and complain, and she should try her best to win Zhu Yuanzhang's favor.
In the face of her mother's indifference, Guo Hui only felt that she had become a child that her grandmother didn't love her uncle and didn't love, she had just returned disappointed from Da Zhang's family, but she found that Zhu Yuanzhang was sleeping on her bed, and she couldn't help but be overjoyed.
Zhu Yuanzhang sat up, "Madame said that you have little to eat, let me come and see you." ”
Guo Hui's smile immediately froze on his face, and he said insincerely: "Thank you Fujun and my sister for your concern, I'm fine." She thought that Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't let her go, but when she heard that Zhu Yuanzhang came over because of Ma Xiuying's orders, her joy suddenly disappeared.
Except for Ma Xiuying, Zhu Yuanzhang was in no mood to coax other women, and he didn't hear Guo Hui's voice trembling a little, and said impatiently: "Since you're fine, let's rest early." ”
Guo Hui's smile became more and more stiff, she was so angry that she couldn't eat dinner, how could she be fine, Zhu Yuanzhang kept saying that she liked her, but she was not as meticulous as Ma Xiuying at all. She was holding the handkerchief, and she wanted to smash the handkerchief on Zhu Yuanzhang's face, but remembered Da Zhang's instructions, "Zhu Yuanzhang does not attach importance to Ma Xiuying, but attaches importance to the evil seed in her belly, and when you are pregnant with a child, I am afraid that Zhu Yuanzhang will not depend on you for everything", she took a deep breath, showed a charming smile, and faded off her clothes in a variety of ways.
The red tent was overturned, Zhu Yuanzhang was lost in Guo Hui's jade arm and lips, and the anger in his heart turned into motivation, and he drove straight into the ......
