Chapter 109

After playing horses and parading the streets, the next day is to enter the palace to see the emperor. Not only Yuan Dongliang and a few of them, but also the first few of the second class, a total of thirteen people. After the early dynasty, he was led to the Taihe Hall for an audience.

The emperor stood under the eaves of the corridor, looked at the people standing in a row, and turned his head slightly to look at Ning Zhen: "Yuan Dongliang, this kid, you teach well, you are capable." ”

"Thank you for the emperor's praise, it's not all the credit of the minister, if it weren't for the child himself being smart enough, the minister would not be able to teach him even if he was tired." Ning Zhen said with a smile: "Besides, the old general must have worked hard, and Weichen can't monopolize this credit." ”

The emperor smiled and nodded: "The old general Yuan is indeed capable, Yuan Dongliang is the grandson of his in-laws, and I think he will inherit his wisdom." Dongliang is seventeen this year, right? ”

Ning Zhen nodded hurriedly: "Yes." ”

"Have you ever said kiss?" The emperor asked again, Ning Zhen reached out and rubbed his nose a little uncomfortably: "I'm not afraid of the emperor's jokes when I say it, when we adopted this child, we just saw that the child was young, and I couldn't bear to see him like that all his life, but I didn't expect that in the end, he was found by the old general." ”

Ning Zhen couldn't help but shake his head, the emperor squinted at him, he immediately didn't dare to sell Guanzi: "This kid is a stubborn character, and the things he recognizes have to achieve his goal, he treats us as his father, and later after being taken away by the old general, he feels that he is separated from us, and when he turns around, he thinks of a way by himself, he has to marry Nianzhi, Weichen thinks, they are also childhood sweethearts who grew up together, and Dongliang is a grateful person, and he will not be wronged in the future." It's just that in the end, Nian is young, so this thing ......"

The emperor touched his beard and nodded, a little pity, but there are so many good men in the world, there is no need to compete with the courtiers for sons-in-law, his eyes immediately fell on others, Ning Zhen looked at the line of sight, and said with a smile: "Speaking of which, this Tanhualang, the minister also watched him grow up, I don't know if the emperor remembers, General Zhou Hongzhou?" ”

The emperor couldn't help laughing: "How can I not remember? This is the son of General Zhou? ”

"Yes, I grew up with Dongliang since I was a child, and the relationship between the brothers is quite good." Ning Zhen said with a smile, and praised Zhou Mingxuan a few words: "Wechen took the exam some time ago for Zhou Mingxuan's knowledge, and he still has the talent of a general, Wechen wants to congratulate the emperor, this martial arts, but there are a lot of people who can serve the emperor." ”

"In a peaceful and prosperous world, it is rare to have outstanding generals, and I have to ask carefully." As he spoke, the emperor raised his feet, these people have been standing outside the hall for a long time, the weather in May, it is almost noon, the sun is so hot that people's eyes are almost unable to open, and they can only stare at the little shadow under their feet.

reacted quickly, the emperor was already alert when he came down, straightened his chest and abdomen, although he couldn't raise his head yet, but at least he had to show some momentum. The reaction was slow, drowsy, and when he saw the figure in front of him, he was excited and quickly stood up.

The emperor looked at the past, beckoned, and motioned for everyone to sit down on the other side, so that people could prepare for the afternoon banquet, and the ministers followed and sat down.

"I have a question here, and if any of you answer it well, I will be rewarded." The emperor looked down with a smile, paused, and said, "Go and invite the prince to come over, let the prince also take a look." ”

The eldest prince and the second prince are old enough and have already begun to go to the court, and the crown prince is only more than ten years old and has not yet been able to start contact with the court. However, now is an opportunity, the emperor's eyes swept over the few people below, if there is that loyal, maybe he can choose a few henchmen for the prince.

didn't dare to let the emperor wait for a long time, and soon the prince followed the chamberlain, greeted the emperor with a serious face, and then sat down in the position of the emperor's head. The eldest prince's eyes flashed, and he took a teacup to hide his eyes.

"There are Tengte people in northern Xinjiang, if Tengte snows heavily this winter, how should I deal with it?" The emperor opened his mouth and asked, Yuan Dongliang and they were still in spirit, waiting for the emperor to be embarrassed, but they didn't expect it to be such a simple question.

Some of them were more anxious, and immediately got up and saluted: "Back to the emperor, Weichen thinks that we should quickly gather soldiers and horses, and take Tengte by surprise. ”

The emperor raised his eyebrows slightly: "What about after the fight?" ”

The man was a little confused, didn't he win after the fight? If you win, won't you be able to return to the court? What's next?

"Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that my Great Yuan Dynasty is a great country, and we should show the generosity and benevolence of our dynasty, and send grain and grass to Northern Xinjiang to relieve the Tengte people......" Someone got up and said, before he finished speaking, someone got up and retorted: "Even the generosity and benevolence also depends on who it is for, and the Tengte people are immature white sheep wolves, taking their own grain and grass to feed the enemy, your strategy is really eye-opening." ”

"Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that border trade should be opened, aren't the Tengte people short of grain and grass? Let them exchange things for Tengte's war horses, as well as various specialties, and Tengte will have no supplies to fight with us in the future......"

"Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that it is not appropriate to open trade, after all, the Tengte people are very murderous, if we open trade, we must have a stronghold near Baishui City, put food or something, what if the Tengte people want to rob these materials? Didn't we send it to people for nothing? ”

"The Emperor's ......"

Everyone has their own ideas, one person said the beginning, and the rest were not restrained, but they were afraid that they would be left behind, and they did not leave a good impression in the emperor's heart. The emperor touched his beard from time to time and nodded, and his seemingly appreciative attitude inspired these people even more.

About a quarter of an hour later, when everyone was almost finished, the emperor turned his head to look at the prince: "What does my son think?" ”

The prince got up and saluted in a proper manner: "Erchen listens to everyone's meaning, there are no more than two kinds, one is war, the other is peace, and Erchen means that you can't just fight, and you can't just peace." ”

The eldest prince sneered: "The prince is still a little young, even if you don't have your own opinions, you don't have to pinch everyone's meaning in front of these many people." ”

The emperor glanced at the eldest prince unhappily, Ning Zhen saw this look, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, this eldest prince, it seems that the emperor did not deal with the assassination of Xishan last time, but it fueled his arrogance.

Fool, the emperor didn't deal with it in time, not because he didn't know, or didn't care, or because he valued you so he didn't care, but gave you a pen to keep in mind, just waiting for the autumn queen to settle the account.

They are all fathers, and Ning Zhen more or less knows some of the emperor's thoughts. The palms and backs of his hands are full of flesh, and when he dies, he does not want to see his sons hack his brothers to death as enemies.

In the previous incident, the emperor also wanted to see the prince's attitude, if the prince couldn't tolerate the eldest prince, and took the opportunity to press down the eldest prince's faction, then the prince's impression in the emperor's heart would fall a few points.

Fortunately, although the prince is young, he is also a smart person, and since the emperor doesn't say it, then he won't ask. Anyway, he's still young now, so there's no need to rush to show his skills. If this happened a year or two later, and the crown prince went to court, it couldn't be this attitude.

If it is light, it seems that the prince is cowardly and incompetent, and he is about to lose his life, but he still does not dare to resist. is heavy, and it will appear that the prince is ruthless and unrighteous, and he can't even tolerate his own brothers.

In this way, it seems that the eldest prince deliberately sent a good opportunity. The prince ignored it, which really made the emperor's impression of the prince better, and it was even more unpleasant for the prince who killed his brother to kill him.

"What Erchen means is that we can first scare the Tengte people, so that they no longer dare to invade our dynasty, and then give some benefits, open trade, and then send people to the north to spread the culture of our dynasty, subtly, so that those vulgar and barbaric Tengte people who drink blood know etiquette, righteousness and shame." The crown prince completely ignored the eldest prince, took the provocation of the eldest prince as air, and still only faced the emperor, and said his own opinions unhurriedly.

As soon as the prince's voice fell, Yuan Dongliang got up with a smile: "What the prince said is very true, and Weichen agrees with His Royal Highness the prince's point of view. ”

Zhou Mingxuan squinted at Yuan Dongliang, this sycophant is too obvious, right? Are you sure? Do you really want to be on the side of the prince? Don't really have to think about it anymore?

Yuan Dongliang was also helpless, which side did he stand on the prince's side? At the beginning, the prince was young, and the emperor was afraid that the prince would be weak and would be suppressed by his brothers in the future, so he specially chose Ning Zhen to tie the prince to the ship.

There is also a queen who summons Ma Xinrong from time to time, and the eighth princess and Ning Nianzhi's friendship, this is full of capital, who doesn't know that the Ning family is on the side of the prince? He is the adopted son of the Ning family, even if he says that he and the prince are not of the same mind, it is estimated that not many people believe it.

Moreover, whether it is a grandfather or a father, they are more optimistic about the prince. Although the emperor is already in his fifties, he is physically strong, and it will not be a problem to live for more than ten years, and when the prince marries, he is young, which will not cause the emperor's suspicion, and will not be held hostage by the courtiers at a young age.

"Weichen thinks this is inappropriate...... "There are those who stand on the side of the prince, and naturally there are those who stand on the side of the eldest prince, after all, the prince is young, whether he can live to succeed to the throne is still two words, and the eldest prince has begun to go to the court, go out of the palace to build a mansion, and can win over the courtiers.

The emperor only smiled and looked at the argument below, and did not make a sound, except for a few words when the emperor asked before, and then did not speak much. Ning Zhen was a little sleepy when he heard this, and couldn't help yawning, these little rabbit cubs are still young and careless, and there are three or two words to explain this kind of thing.

The scope given by the emperor is too large, only talking about the Tengte snow disaster, but not saying which side is the first to stabilize after the snow disaster, if the Tengte people can't be stabilized, then naturally dare to reach out and have the consciousness of being chopped off. If you can't stabilize your own side, you have to find an excuse first.

In addition, this first battle must be well arranged, otherwise, the first battle will be lost, and the morale will not grow later.

"Well, I know that you are all well-educated, but you are still young and lack exercise." The emperor finally spoke, put down the wine glass in his hand, and asked with a smile: "Prince, do you have a fancy for these people?" If so, just say it, and your father will choose a few guards for you. ”

The prince was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly shook his head: "Father, these people are all generals selected by Wuju, and they serve as guards for their sons, I'm afraid that some of them are too wronged......"

The emperor smiled, and the eldest prince hurriedly said: "Father, if this is the case, there are a few sons who like it, but I don't know if my father is reluctant." ”

"Tell me about it first." The emperor leaned back lazily, looked at the eldest prince, and the eldest prince stretched out his hand and nodded: "Erchen thinks these two are good, they are very good, it just so happens that the guards in Erchen's mansion have been divided, and there are two empty positions." ”

The eldest prince was not stupid, he didn't dare to order the top three, he only picked the last two, and the emperor turned his head to look at the two people: "Are you willing?" ”

The two people who were pointed out were still a little confused, and one of them immediately stepped forward and saluted: "Your Highness can take a fancy to Weichen is the blessing of Weichen, and Weichen is willing to follow His Highness." ”

The other hesitated for a while, and stepped forward to salute: "If you go back to the emperor, it is an honor for Weichen to follow His Royal Highness, but everyone has their own ambitions, Weichen is not willing to settle in a corner, Weichen wants to protect his family and defend the country, and go to the battlefield to kill the enemy, so I am afraid that I will live up to the kindness of the prince." ”

The eldest prince's face suddenly became a little unpleasant, but seeing that the expression on the emperor's face did not change, he didn't dare to lose his temper.

The emperor nodded and sat in a different position: "In that case, you should go to the military headquarters first." Turning his eyes to another person: "Give the third-class guard, and you can protect Your Highness in the future." ”

The crown prince didn't ask for anyone, the eldest prince asked for one, and the rest of the princes didn't ask for anyone.

After a meal, everyone left the palace, Yuan Dongliang and Zhou Mingxuan hurriedly followed Ning Zhen: "Dad, what did you say, what did the emperor's question mean today?" Could it be that there is any movement on the other side of northern Xinjiang? ”

"What can happen? The emperor asked about the snow disaster, it was only Mayday, where did the heavy snow come from, but it was just to test the school and test you. Ning Zhen said with a smile, and then turned his head to look at Zhou Mingxuan: "When you were at home, did your family say kiss to you?" ”

Zhou Mingxuan's eyes lit up immediately, could it be that Uncle Ning took a fancy to himself and felt that he and Nianzhi's sister were more suitable? Although this is a bit sorry for my brother, if it is the future father-in-law's fancy, it is not my own initiative.

Hurriedly nodded: "Not yet, my father and mother mean, wait until I have a chance to talk, besides, it's good that I will not say kiss until I nod and agree." ”

"Have you seen the four princesses?" Ning Zhen asked again, Zhou Mingxuan was a little stupid, looking at Yuan Dongliang, Yuan Dongliang ignored him, when he didn't know, this kid never stopped thinking about his sister, and turned around and let him marry the fourth princess, and his head hurt every day!

"This, Uncle Ning, is that what the emperor meant?" Zhou Mingxuan hurriedly asked, seeing that it was a little far away from the palace, Ning Zhen lowered his voice: "If you have this plan, I can help with this." If you don't have this plan, you should have a little idea of what to do during this time. ”

After speaking, I won't care about Zhou Mingxuan, and he is not his own child, so it would be good to be kind enough to mention it.

Zhou Mingxuan was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly urged the horse to follow, but he was a little hesitant in his heart. There is no rule that a horse cannot go to court in this dynasty, on the contrary, marrying a princess is considered to be a help. In the current situation of the family, if I can marry a woman from a high background, then my mother will be better.

However, the status of the fourth princess is high, but there is a fatal shortcoming, that is, the relationship with the eldest prince, the brothers and sisters of the same father and mother, if they marry the fourth princess, they may be labeled as the eldest prince......

Just thinking of this, Zhou Mingxuan couldn't help but shudder, well, he couldn't bear it a little, no matter whether the fourth princess was his favorite type or not, just looking at her identity, he couldn't afford to climb high.

After making up his mind, Zhou Mingxuan began to do it. There are almost no people he knows in the capital, except for Yuan Dongliang, and the rest is Zhao Yinian, who he met through Yuan Dongliang.

So, today I invited Zhao Yinian to go to the flower building, and Ming'er invited Yuan Dongliang to listen to a tune, and the day after tomorrow I will find a few small dramas to play around in Zhuangzi, and it is not like talking.

Ning Zhen was a little speechless: "It's too much trouble, and it's not a flood beast...... Forget it, his temperament has always been unreliable, and he can be seen to be a pity on the day he travels on the street. ”

Yuan Dongliang was impatient to accompany him to play, and finally his father and mother were a little relieved, he couldn't wait to be with Ning Nianzhi every day, even if he just sat and didn't speak, it was better than following Zhou Mingxuan to mess around.

Ning Nianzhi couldn't stand it a little, reached out and pinched the plums on the plate and threw them at Yuan Dongliang: "You've been watching it for a long time, but what flowers can you see?" ”

Yuan Dongliang raised his hand to catch the plum and stuffed it directly into his mouth: "My sister is getting better and better-looking, I think my sister is a little different from the previous two days, has she grown up a little more?" ”

Ning Nianzhi's face turned red, what he said was too ambiguous, he just came to Kwai Shui a few days ago, and he didn't know if it was the reason, his chest, which was still slowly growing, seemed to have been blown overnight, and it was suddenly bigger, and even the newly made clothes were a little tighter, and the sewing room was busy changing it in the past two days.

", it's just that I haven't seen you for a while, and I've changed my hairstyle again, so you look a little different." hurriedly defended a couple of sentences, and changed the topic again: "Doesn't the eldest brother have to go out to socialize during this time?" I looked at Brother Zhou, but he was very busy, going out early and returning late every day. ”

"What is worth entertaining, and you are not a literati, I will hold a poetry meeting today and have a flower viewing banquet tomorrow." Yuan Dongliang waved his hand casually: "Zhou Mingxuan's kid can't sit still, he doesn't plan to go back for the time being, he wants to get an errand in the Gyeonggi camp, so he is more diligent when he moves, I just wait for two days to take my grandmother back to Western Xinjiang......"

Speaking of this, he couldn't help but be silent, he and Ning Nianzhi both knew that when the martial arts were over, Yuan Dongliang would definitely go back, but no one mentioned it, now Yuan Dongliang said it himself, and then, looking at Ning Nianzhi's cheeks, he couldn't go on.

"I'll go back later, and I'll be back sooner." After a long while, Yuan Dongliang said, Ning Nianzhi couldn't help but smile: "It's not that I won't come back, anyway, it's ......"

Yuan Dongliang couldn't help but stretch out his hand and pinch Ning Nianzhi's fingers, Ning Nianyi's hands were very good-looking, and his fingers were slender and slender, but because of his martial arts practice, he was slightly calloused, not like an ordinary lady, his palms were delicate and soft, but in this way, he could still charm Yuan Dongliang.

"Are you waiting for me?" Yuan Dongliang raised his eyebrows and asked, Ning Nianzhi couldn't help laughing again, his face was slightly red: "Okay, I'll wait for you, so you have to come back early, if you come back late, even if I am willing to wait, my father and mother will not let me wait." ”

This is naturally not true, if Ning Nianzhi made up her mind, Ning Zhen and Ma Xinrong would not be willing to persecute her.

Yuan Dongliang nodded happily, dragged his stool and moved it secretly, getting closer to Ning Nianzhi: "I'll bring you a gift then, what do you like?" Or is it the same as before, with a little bit of everything? ”

"Well, look at it and buy it, I think the ones you brought back before are all very good." Ning Nianzhi smiled, and looked at Yuan Dongliang slightly: "You brought it back, no matter what, I like it a lot." ”

"If you like it." Yuan Dongliang repeated a sentence stupidly, Ning Nianzhi really couldn't help it, and laughed: "You look quite normal outside, why did you suddenly become a fool at this moment?" ”

"I'd rather be a fool in front of you." Yuan Dongliang suddenly made a serious face, turned around, and faced Ning Nianzhi: "As long as I can make you laugh, don't say it's a fool, let me be a ...... Well, it doesn't matter if it's a puppy or a kitten. ”

Ning Nianzhi was amused and moved, pulling his hand, but Yuan Dongliang was very reluctant and unwilling to let go, Ning Nianzhi had no choice but to scare him with a tiger face: "If you don't let go, I won't pull it for you in the future, hurry up!" ”

Yuan Dongliang had to reluctantly let go, and Ning Nianzhi reached out and poked him on the shoulder: "Step back a little, don't think I didn't see you moving forward." ”

Yuan Dongliang was even more depressed, wasn't he a little moved just now? The girl was moved, shouldn't she be very shy, and then she could take the initiative a little more, hug her shoulders or something......

I didn't dare to go against Ning Nianzhi's intentions, so I had to move back, of course, I would definitely not return to my original position.

"Sister, when will you grow up?" Yuan Dongliang sighed, Ning Nianzhi looked down at his book again, ignoring him, fool, is she the one who has the final say in this kind of thing?

"When we get married, I will take you to see the White Lotus River in Western Xinjiang, the river is full of white lotus, I heard that there was a high monk in the past, sitting by the river with the Buddha's light, so it is full of lotus flowers, very beautiful, one to May and June, the whole river exudes fragrance, you will definitely like it."

"I can also take you to climb the mountain, there is a stacked green mountain in the western Xinjiang, the scenery is particularly good, the mountain is full of all kinds of fruit trees, all of them are wild fruits, the taste is still very good, every year the government will organize villagers to pick fruits, and then it became a custom."

"If you like it, we can also buy a painting boat, Xijiang is different from the capital, there is a very long and wide river, and there is a water village, which is built on the water, we can buy a house like that, you can go and live for two days if you are happy, however, the water vapor in the water village is too heavy, and it is not suitable to live for a long time."

Ning Nianzhi's gaze was fixed on the book, but his mind was following the picture described by Yuan Dongliang. What is the stockade covered on the water made of? Wood? Doesn't wood rot? Or is it a stone brick or something?

How big can a painting boat be, how big can it be like a house, and how much does it cost?

"Big sister!" Just thinking about it, there was a shout at the door, and both of them were startled, Yuan Dongliang was fine, he turned around expressionlessly, but Ning Nianzhi shook his body, and helplessly looked at Ning Baozhu who jumped into the door: "What's wrong?" ”

"Ming'er is going to the academy, I want to ask the eldest sister if you have your things ready." Ning Baozhu looked at Uehara Dongliang's gaze, and inexplicably felt a little scary, so he hid beside Ning Nianzhi, paused, and sighed: "Recently, my mother's temper is a little wrong, I don't want to stay in the house, I'm still very happy to go to school early, hey, I don't know what's wrong with my mother, I haven't seen anything pleasing to the eye these days, and I don't even stop eating." ”

"Scolded?" Ning Nianzhi raised his eyebrows, and Ning Baozhu nodded with a sad face: "Yes, as soon as he saw me in the morning, he began to pick thorns, saying that the clothes I was wearing were not good-looking, they were old styles from a few years ago, and they had no vision or anything, and they said that I couldn't marry in the future if I ate too much, and complained that I wouldn't be able to give her a long face......

This is still a little subtle, and every time her mother says a word, she has to compare Ning Nianzhi. Thanks to her and the eldest sister's good relationship, the comparison is better, she is really not as good as the eldest sister, and she never thought of surpassing the eldest sister. If it were a different person, she would have been crooked a long time ago, either dissatisfied with herself or dissatisfied with her eldest sister.

Ning Baozhu sighed again, a few years ago, my mother also knew that it would be no harm for me to follow my eldest sister, after all, the Guogong Mansion was still headed by Zhang Changfang. But in the past two days, it was like eating a cannon battle, just one point.

"Is the second aunt unwell, or is she unhappy?" Ning Nianzhi hesitated for a moment and patted Ning Baozhu: "You have a bad temper for no reason, I'm afraid that there is something uncomfortable, you ask someone to ask a doctor to take a look?" ”

Ning Baozhu was also worried: "I said the same thing before, even if the body is fine, let the doctor prescribe a prescription to relieve the liver and regulate qi, but my mother is reluctant to see the doctor, I have to say that I just conditioned my body some time ago and waited for pregnancy, if I drink other medicines, I am afraid that the effect of the medicine will collide, and I can't help it." ”

"You should ask the doctor or you still have to ask, you tell your mother, this medicine can be drunk or not, otherwise ask the doctor to prescribe a prescription for medicinal food." Ning Nianzhi waved his hand: "Go quickly, don't delay, otherwise you will be scolded." ”

Ning Baozhu nodded hurriedly, and ran out with her skirt.

Yuan Dongliang frowned: "If the second aunt makes trouble again, it is better to send it to Zhuangzi to live for a few days, so that she can calm down or something." ”

"It's okay, second aunt, this is a trivial matter." The most important thing is that although people are noisy, they don't hurt people, unlike the old lady and the little aunt, who are more affectionate with you on the face, but they are unambiguous when they start.

was interrupted by Ning Baozhu once, and when the two of them spoke again, they lost the ambiguous aura they had before.

"It's been hot these days, have you started using ice in your house?" Ning Nianzhi asked, Yuan Dongliang shook his head: "My grandmother is old, I'd rather have a hot spot, I can't move it, I'm not afraid of the heat, I haven't started using it yet, you ......"

After hesitating for a moment, he still said: "I heard the doctor say that girls should use less ice, you ......"

Ning Nianzhi poked his arm: "I know, I will pay attention, but it's you, don't eat ice at will just because you're strong, the bottom will be over if it's broken, and you will live on Zhuangzi in hot weather, my father and mother are discussing this matter, and you and your grandmother will also go when the time comes." ”

"Okay, let's go." Yuan Dongliang nodded hurriedly, seeing that Ning Nianzhi lowered his head to read the book, he didn't bother, and only occasionally reached out and pulled Ning Nianzhi's hair. Or hook some of Ning Nianzhi's sleeves, Ning Nianzhi doesn't care about him, and he doesn't feel bored.

Half an hour passed, and Ning Baozhu's maid came over again: "Our girl invited a doctor to come over, but our wife just didn't want the doctor to check the pulse, our girl asked the slave to come over and ask, what good idea does the eldest girl have?" ”

Ning Nianzhi sighed and got up: "I'll go and have a look." ”

Yuan Dongliang didn't want to follow, so he had to get up and go to the front yard to find Ning Ancheng and Ning Anyue and give them guidance on the children's homework.

When they arrived at the second room, the second lady was leaning on the soft couch with an angry face, and Ning Baozhu stood beside her helplessly, wanting to cry without tears: "Mother, it's really not your daughter who cursed you, you haven't just had a bad temper in the past two days......"

Ning Nianzhi was speechless, saying this, it was strange that the second lady was willing to let people take the pulse.

"Second aunt." After entering the house and saluting, Ning Nianzhi said with a smile: "I heard my sister say that during this time, the second aunt has a bad appetite, she doesn't eat well, she doesn't sleep well, and her face is much worse than before, and my sister is really worried, so she specially invited a doctor." ”

He pulled Ning Baozhu again and said, "My sister is filial, don't blame my sister." ”

The second lady's face was still not very good-looking, and Ning Nianzhi hurriedly said again: "Didn't the second aunt say that her body was almost conditioned before?" It's just right, let the doctor see, if there are any taboos, or any taboos, it's better to let the second aunt know earlier. ”

Pregnancy and childbirth have almost become the second lady's obsession, and she has been taking medicine for several years to condition her body, just wanting to have another one, and after listening to Ning Nianzhi's words, she finally pressed down a little bit of reluctance, hummed, stretched out her hand, and the doctor hurriedly stepped forward.

After a long while, the doctor was a little sluggish to change sides and continue to check the pulse, Ning Baozhu was a little anxious, and he didn't dare to interrupt the doctor's movements, and when the people got up, he hurriedly asked, "Doctor, how is my mother's body?" Is it heat stroke? The weather has been too hot for the past two days, and she is not feeling smooth? ”

"Second lady, this is a happy pulse." The doctor arched his fist and said with a smile: "Congratulations to the second lady, the month is still shallow, and it will be two months, Mrs. should pay more attention, eat and sleep well on weekdays, and Mrs. is older, if you don't take care of your body, when you give birth to a child in the future, I'm afraid it will be ......."

The second lady was stunned for a long time, and the doctor talked for a long time, but no one in the room could react.

"Is this true? Is my mother really pregnant? Ning Baozhu came back to his senses first, and hurriedly asked, "Is it really two months pregnant?" Did you read that right? ”

The doctor frowned slightly, but still nodded: "Naturally, it's true, a happy pulse, I still won't make a mistake." ”

As soon as she finished speaking, the second lady suddenly laughed twice, and then cried again: "I'm pregnant, I'm really pregnant, I have a baby!" ”

The corners of Ning Nianzhi's mouth twitched, why is it like never giving birth to a child? With a relaxed heart, a pair of children are much happier than many people, why do they have to go to a dead end? It's really good to have a child with a concubine and an aunt.

Ning Baozhu hurriedly went to comfort the second lady, Ning Nianzhi had no choice but to take responsibility, while sending someone to report to the old lady, while asking people to seal red envelopes for the doctor, and asking people to call Ma Xinrong to come over and explain the matter of pregnant women, Ma Xinrong is more experienced.

Although she doesn't like the second aunt very much, she doesn't have a deep hatred with the second aunt, she is old and pregnant, if she is always in a bad mood, I am afraid that it is not good for her health, and if something happens, no one can afford it.

It didn't take long for the old lady and Ma Xinrong to come over together, and the old lady also had a little joy on her face, and said with a smile as soon as she entered the door: "The second family is blessed, and she is pregnant again, but you have to take care of your body, and in a few months, give me a white and chubby grandson!" ”

While speaking, he instructed Ma Xinrong: "Your brother and sister are old, it is not easy to conceive a child at this age, let the treasury send some things to replenish the body, bird's nest ginseng or something, and then let the kitchen stew a soup every day, wolfberry fish soup, you have to give your brother and sister a good body." ”

However, some food, Ma Xinrong is not that stingy, even if it is a fish a day, it is only a few dozen taels of silver for a year, and the Ning family is not short of this money. Ma Xinrong immediately nodded in response, and the old lady said again: "And the things in this room have also been changed, the sandalwood Buddha statue, changed, I remember that there is a white jade Guanyin in the treasury, right?" Just change that, and the things on this bed, also change, change to a softer one, and there is still a blue conch yarn in the warehouse, isn't it? That breathable, it's hot, and your brother and sister can't use ice cubes, so you send that one over and make her two clothes! ”

Ma Xinrong looked at her speechlessly, nodded in response, it's just fabric, you can buy better ones if you have money, it's not bad. However, the old lady's attitude has really become fast enough, she quarreled with her second brother and sister a few days ago, and now she will treat her second brother and sister as her daughter, and the belly of the second brother and sister is really expensive enough.
