Chapter 411: Meeting Late at Night
Mrs. Xiao glanced at her granddaughter with a smile, but she didn't debunk it, this granddaughter is thin-skinned, and she is only a little better after getting married, if she says something more, maybe she will be annoyed, she is a mother, and she is still following the little girl, that is, she is married well.
The old lady thought of this, and her heart was also very ironing, she took a fancy to Yanxi back then, it was indeed because he was good-looking, and no matter how she stood with her granddaughter, it looked like a couple.
Then there is the attitude of the village chief, don't look at Yan Xi has been in the village for so long, the village chief has not shown up much, but the old lady's eyes are poisonous, and you can see the village chief's awe of Yan Xi at a glance.
If it weren't for this, the old lady wouldn't have moved the idea of marrying her granddaughter, after all, Yan Xi didn't look like a person who could live in the village.
Now that she has left her homeland, fortunately, her grandchildren are by her side, one is well married, the other is diligent and progressive, and she will always be able to glorify her ancestors in the future, and the old lady has no other requirements.
"In the future, Ah Chen's daughter-in-law will be like your mother and give birth to a few more babies for our Xiao family, and the old woman will have nothing to think about. β
The old lady sighed, although there is no preference for sons, but the Xiao family's house is now considered to be two generations of single inheritance, and the population is too thin.
Xiao Jiu hugged Brother An and smiled, "Don't worry, ten or eight don't dare to guarantee it, no matter what, four or five are fine." β
According to the ancient people's idea of having many children and grandchildren, as long as they can give birth, there is no one who will not have children, and there is no family planning anyway, let alone being unable to afford it.
"Don't say four or five, I also burn high incense for two or three. The old lady is not as optimistic as Xiao Jiu, Xiao Chen is afraid that she will marry the daughter of the capital in the future, she is so thin, and she can give birth to four or five, the old lady expressed deep doubts about this.
Xiao Jiu never thought that his younger brother would take concubines in the future, after all, there is a precedent for himself and the Su Jialan family, and he has been exposed to it since he was a child, Xiao Jiu also believes that his younger brother will not grow into the kind of man with three wives and four concubines.
"You're too anxious, Ah Chen is only how old is he now, how old will he be when he marries his daughter-in-law? Besides, Xiao Chen has to study hard, and then marry a daughter-in-law after making a name for himself, it will take more than ten years. β
"Ten years, then Ah Chen is about to be twenty, but it's too late!" the old lady felt that this belonged to the age when she couldn't marry a daughter-in-law.
"How can it be late, don't you see that when Yan Xi married his daughter-in-law, wasn't he in his twenties, and the second master of the Yang family, a man can marry a daughter-in-law no matter how late he is, what are you afraid of?" Xiao Jiu didn't want his little brother to be destroyed when he was a teenager.
"You're justified every time. The old lady snorted angrily, "When will I be able to hold my great-grandson?"
"Since you want to take care of children so much, then I will have a few more children over the years, so that you can enjoy it, and save you from worrying about these shadowless things all day long. Xiao Jiu is also funny, Xiao Chen is not yet ten years old, and the old lady is thinking about marrying a daughter-in-law, and she is also drunk.
When the old lady heard this, she was even more angry and didn't want to speak, so she turned around and left.
Xiao Jiu couldn't cry or laugh, and the old lady's temper was getting more and more naΓ―ve.
After feeding Brother An and coaxing her to sleep, Xiao Jiu had time to read the letter sent back by Yan Xi.
didn't write anything, probably because he was afraid that Xiao Jiu would be worried, and Yan Xi's letter only simply wrote about the movements of the past few days, although he had suppressed bandits in the past, but it was a fake mountain bandit, how could he find it?
Fortunately, it was not for nothing.
Because it was a letter, Yan Xi didn't write much, hurriedly explained the itinerary, wrote some private words, and asked An Ge'er about the situation, and a letter was only two pages.
Xiao Jiu read it twice in a row, and then he wrote a reply, presumably Yan Xi was short, Xiao Jiu's words were a little long, Brother An alone wrote two pages, Su Mo's detoxification was a page, and miscellaneous things were written several pages.
When Xiao Jiu finished writing the reply letter and asked Mo Twelve to send the letter out, Mo Twelve took the thick letter, and the corners of his mouth twitched irrepressibly.
**
That night, the six princes sat in front of the bookcase, wearing a thin shirt, and a brazier was placed at their feet, but this brazier seemed to be useless, and the six princes' faces were still not a little bloody, and under the background of the candle flame, it was particularly gloomy.
"Squeak. β
The door was pushed open, and the four princes dressed in big hats walked in from outside, bringing a gust of cold wind, which made the already chilled six princes cough.
"Sixth brother!" The fourth prince walked over with a worried face, untied his big sand and draped it on the sixth prince, and then looked at the furnishings in the room, his brows furrowed tightly.
"What's going on? Father just imprisoned you, not to reduce your usefulness, why don't you even have a single garment?"
The four princes understand the practice of these people in the palace stepping on the ground and praising the high, and this is only for the six princes.
The sixth prince also knew in his heart, he didn't say anything with a pale face, covered his mouth and coughed for a while, and took a sip of tea to suppress it, which stopped the cough.
"Fourth brother ventured over today, but what's the matter?"
If it weren't for something big happening, how could the fourth prince take the risk of coming to see him, the imprisoned prince, late at night?
The fourth prince sat on the chair opposite the sixth prince, rubbed his eyebrows, and said very tiredly: "Yan Xi went to *** to suppress bandits a few days ago. β
The sixth prince paused slightly, raised his eyes to look at the fourth prince, and asked, "What did the fourth brother do?"
"What can I do, I just want to teach the third child a lesson. The fourth prince's expression was gloomy, and the corners of his mouth hooked into a sneer.
The sixth prince's eyes flashed with a ghostly light, and he looked down at his polished sleeves again, and said lightly: "The fourth brother is too anxious. β
"My father already has the intention of establishing a prince, how can I not be in a hurry? Now except for the seventh brother, only me and the third brother have not been crowned kings, Jiangzhou matter, the father asked the third child to deal with it, and let the six departments open the door of convenience, so that the third child has accumulated meritorious service, can not explain the problem?"
The fourth prince looked extremely irritable, and Emperor Qian's decision to appoint a crown prince obviously forced him to do it.
The sixth prince still had no expression, and said: "I said, the fourth brother is too anxious, if it is slowly figured out, the father may not make a decision so quickly." β
"Not now, it's not long before that, it doesn't make a difference. "The four princes are stubborn.
The sixth prince, Chen, was silent.
"I have come today to tell you one more thing. The eyes of the fourth prince showed annoyance again, "Su Mo's poison has been solved." β
"How is that possible?" the sixth prince looked shocked.
"When the time came before, Su Mo didn't have poison, so I suspected that he had detoxified, but after sending someone to verify, I knew that Su Mo's poison was only suppressed, but last night, the movement from the Suguo Mansion was indeed because of Su Mo's detoxification. β8910
