The drums sounded one after another, alarming the officials of all sizes who were still drunk and dreaming of death for the New Year, those who came out of the wine party, those who got up from the couch, and those who were even more out of tune actually came out of the flower building, and the young man blinked his eyes, and his drunken eyes were full of confusion, what kind of drum is this?

Although the Qin Dynasty was founded for a long time, it was not a short time, from the founding of the Tai/Zu to the current Changtai Emperor, it is already the third generation, and some young people have not heard such an eager war drum.

The civil officials were frightened, and the generals were in a hurry, so they hurriedly changed into court clothes and got on the horse to go to the Qinzheng Palace.

Mrs. Zhongyihou was talking to her two daughters-in-law, and suddenly heard the sound of this drum is a burst of suddenness, she often had wars when she was young, so she was very familiar with this war drum, but she didn't expect that the drum sound that she hadn't heard for 30 years would be heard again today, and there was a burst of shock for no reason.

"Ah Jia, what kind of drum is this?" It was a young woman sitting next to Mrs. Zhongyihou who spoke, with a big belly, looking at the posture, I am afraid that it has been eight or nine months.

The eyebrows and eyes are crooked, and Luoyang Jin, who is dressed in red and sprinkled with golden plums, takes advantage of the skin like clotted fat, and clearly interprets the four words of what it means to have skin like jade. The voice is soft and crisp, and the words are clear, which shows that the upbringing is excellent.

"It's the drums of war." Mrs. Zhongyi Hou looked at her daughter-in-law, her eyes fell on her stomach, and her face showed a touch of relief: "There is still half a month to go into labor, so you don't have to come over every day." ”

"Morning and dusk are the filial piety I should do." The woman smiled and gently stroked her belly.

"How can there be war at this time?" It was also a young woman, dressed in loose clothes, wearing a pink dress with a swaying on her head, gentle and lovely.

"I think the coastal area is not very peaceful." Madame Zhongyihou's gaze fell on the woman's belly, which had not yet been conceived.

"What the family said is that there is always a fight over there." Another young woman spoke, she was different from the bright and moving one with the big belly, and also different from the gentle and lovely person who was not inconspicuous, her face was dignified, and her body was stern, quite the demeanor of the loyal and righteous lady.

The New Year has not yet come out of the first month, the fifteenth has not passed, and there are two pregnant women in the Zhongyi Hou Mansion, so there is no displeasure in the mansion, whether it is what is worn on the body, or the house is placed in bright colors, even if the old lady likes light-colored things, at this time she also ordered people to put festive and colorful things.

The four mothers-in-law and daughter-in-law were talking, and the maid over there brought the concubines of the two loyal and righteous marquis to ask for peace.

Walking in front is the concubine Su, she is the concubine of the seven-rank official, and was sent to Shangfeng as a concubine by her biological father, but this concubine is different, the Marquis of Zhongyi has a title, and the wife is naturally Mrs. Zheng Erpinhou, in addition to him, he can also have two concubines, both of which are for the edict, the edict of the sixth-grade widow.

This Su family is the Liupin Ruren concubine room registered by the Marquis of Zhongyi to the Ministry of Rites. followed by the Huang family, the Huang family was born as a concubine, when Mrs. Zhongyi Hou was pregnant, Zhongyi Hou was happy, and as a result, she ate a few more glasses of wine, and she was also young and vigorous, so she couldn't help but ask for a maid.

It's not a big deal for her own maid, she honestly poured the avoidance soup, and it was nothing if she didn't get pregnant, but the bad thing was that Huang's heart was big, and she thought she was handsome, so she didn't drink the soup, but secretly ate the tocolytic medicine early in the morning, and the result was naturally pregnant.

Zhongyi Hou almost didn't die of anger, although he and Mrs. Zhongyi Hou were not enough to be harmonious, but they were also respectful, and Zhongyi Hou was serious, what he wanted was the eldest son, if Mrs. Hou's birth was a son-in-law, if the Huang family gave birth to the eldest son, wouldn't it be the root of the chaos?

He is also a ruthless person, he immediately asked people to prepare abortion pills, lay down this fetus, and then sell Huang's family, Huang is really scared stupid, she used to listen to her mother's words with her son, thinking that she would come out if she had a child, but she never thought that Zhongyi Hou didn't want this child at all.

Later, Mrs. Zhongyi Hou couldn't bear it, and stopped Zhongyi Hou, and sent Huang to Zhuangzi in the countryside to give birth, if she gave birth to the eldest son, then no matter whether Huang gave birth to men and women will be taken back, if it is the eldest daughter, then Huang as long as the daughter is born will also be taken back, if there is no creation, Mrs. Hou gave birth to the eldest daughter, it just so happened that she gave birth to the eldest son, then she can only live in the countryside for the rest of her life, including the eldest son, and there will be no name of the child on the genealogy.

Only then did the Marquis of Zhongyi smooth out this tone. Later, Mrs. Hou gave birth to her eldest son, and the Huang family gave birth to a concubine, and Mrs. Hou took their mother and son back, but in the end, they were not loyal to the Hou Hou, and the Huang family also abandoned those dramas where the mother and son were expensive, and served Mrs. Hou honestly, and did not dare to have a trace of trespassing, so she was worried that she would be sold.

Because of these reasons, the Huang family is not as good as the Su family in terms of origin or pampering, and he does not dare to pinch the tip of the tip on weekdays, and has always kept to himself, and his son has also been taught by her to know how to be grateful, and he is grateful for Mrs. Hou's life.

The two concubines honestly asked Mrs. Hou for peace, and they also had to sit sideways, on this, Mrs. Hou is not harsh, and there are not so many rules, the Qin Dynasty has not enjoyed the country for a long time, and those rules and etiquette are not cumbersome. This thing is too peaceful, and the longer it lasts, the more cumbersome it becomes.

Su and Huang sat in a regular manner, but they didn't talk, most of them were Mrs. Hou gossiping with the two daughters-in-law, occasionally Su held a sentence and a half, and Huang didn't say a word, but occasionally used his eyes to look at the belly of the young woman who drooped his hand and did not show his pregnancy.

The three daughters-in-law are both pregnant women, and Mrs. Hou naturally won't stay longer, even if she has fewer rules, it is in front of her mother-in-law, how can she be presumptuous, so it is only a matter of three or two sentences, and she will let them go.

Several women got up together to salute and leave, and when they left the house, the young woman in the big red shirt was at the front, and the maidservants around her all supported her: "Madam, be careful of slippery roads." ”

This sentence of Mrs. is not something that anyone can deserve, the Qin Dynasty has a rule, and only the title above the second grade can be called Mrs., in the entire Zhongyi Marquis Mansion, only two girls can become Mrs., one is still in the house, and the other is the original wife of the prince, which is the order of the second grade, so this young woman in red clothes is Mrs. Shizi.

The young woman nodded, she was not pretentious, and let the maid beside her support herself, she was now in an extraordinary period, so she naturally had to be fine.

After she left, it was the turn of the Su family, and the Su family had the fate of the six products.

The rest of the young women and the Huang family were of no grade.

Seeing that everyone had returned to their rooms, Mrs. Hou finally touched her heart with her hand, and her heart was beating with a heartbeat, and then she had a burst of colic. I had a burst of colic two days ago, could it be that I was old and sick? Or do you think about it yourself? Thinking of the dream that my son came back to see her a few days ago, I missed her again.

"Madame, what's wrong with you?" Seeing that Mrs. Hou's face had changed, the servant girl Coral was startled, and hurriedly leaned over, and by the way, instructed another servant girl beside her: "Go and ask the imperial doctor to come." ”

The pain was only for a moment, and there were fine beads of sweat on his forehead, and the maidservant came over, but it was fine, so he waved his hand: "Don't get in the way, don't be busy." ”

"Madame......"

Mrs. Zhongyi shook her head and began to close her eyes.

Because of the discomfort in her heart, Mrs. Zhongyi Hou didn't eat anything for lunch, put down the dishes and chopsticks, rinsed her mouth, and asked, "Husband hasn't come back yet?" ”

"Mrs. Hui, Aunt Zhao has just come and gone, and the Humane Diligent Administration Hall that followed Master Hou out is quite busy, so she won't come back to eat."

Mrs. Zhongyi nodded.

He crooked himself again on the couch.

"Madam, Master Hou has been brought back."

Mrs. Zhongyihou, who has been squinting, instantly became a spirit, the person is so dignified, and the body is also good, even if she is in the Qinzheng Palace all day, she should definitely not be helped back.

The people who followed Zhongyi Hou also concluded that there was no reason to enter the back house, but this time he made an exception, and drove Zhongyi Hou back all the way, Mrs. Hou went out to greet her, and when she saw her husband of twenty years, her heart was shocked, and her husband, who had always been in good spirits, seemed to be twenty years old in an instant at this time, and all the spirit and spirit of his body were empty.

When Zhongyihou saw his old wife, he leaned into the chair and didn't say anything, but he was in tears.

"What's going on?" Mrs. Hou's face turned pale, and she somehow remembered her son she dreamed of a few days ago, and her son came to see her, and said that she couldn't do her filial piety before her knees.

Zhongyi Hou closed his eyes, Mrs. Hou looked at Chang Sui who was following her with her eyes, Chang Sui knelt down, and tears flowed: "Madam, Madam, the barbarians united with the Wu family and invaded Beisai, and the son and the son died in battle...... "Chang Sui is really crying, he is Chang Sui, following Hou Ye, Hou Ye values the eldest son, and he takes it with him when he is a child to raise him, and Chang Sui follows Zhongyi Hou at that time, the so-called meeting three points of love, and the son of the world is not a bear child, so this master-servant love is really real.

Mrs. Zhongyihou softened her body in an instant, her mind was blank, and her heart began to cramp again, saying that it hit her son's body and hurt her mother's heart, but what if her son was gone? That's cutting my mother's heart with a knife.

The corners of his lips trembled: "Don't be quiet, especially from Mrs. Shizi, you must hide it." The hand that grabbed the maid was bruised, and the maid felt that her hand was about to break.

"Yes, don't alarm her." The Marquis of Zhongyi, who endured for a day in the Qinzheng Palace, returned to his house and shed tears, and his mind began to clear up at this time.

is talking about it, over there Mrs. Shizi has sent someone to see what's going on, she is really filial, naturally can't tell the truth here, or Zhongyi Hou said that he himself is old, and he is tired after a busy day in the Qinzheng Palace, but this is what it means, Mrs. Shizi over there got the letter, and she didn't go to her heart, if the A family is tired, she can still go to serve, but the father-in-law is tired, and his own A family takes care of it, and it is not her turn. Therefore, she can raise the baby with peace of mind.
