Chapter 156: Production
The person who came over was actually the Ninth Prince, Zhu Sa.
Zheng Xizhu was still slightly surprised, but she didn't do it too obviously, and asked herself that she didn't have much intersection with the Nine Princes, and she had no personal relationship, and she hadn't seen this person since she was rescued and used by him that day.
Now this person walked up to her, and she couldn't help but ignore her, after all, if it wasn't for him that day, she would probably be ruined by Chang Xi's dead eunuch. Then she lifted the curtain, stepped on the pedal board set by the coachman and got out of the carriage, she curtsied to the ninth prince, "I have seen the prince." β
"No courtesy." Zhu Sa said very softly.
Zheng Xizhu frowned slightly, the Nine Princes in her memory talked to her with a faint detachment, and she was not too enthusiastic, what does this mean? "Why is the prince here?"
"When I saw you in the carriage, I came and met you." Zhu Sa said to himself, when he didn't see Zheng Xizhu's frowning slightly, "Send the Buddha to the west, after saving you that day, I was busy and didn't care about inquiring about your situation, Miss Zheng San should not be annoyed by this king." β
Zheng Xizhu was flattered, she was a little woman and a concubine, how dare she be annoyed by the prince of the dynasty? Does she have nine lives when she is a cat? Ying Ying bowed again, "The prince's words have tormented the little woman, the little woman is just an inconspicuous flower and plant, how dare she compete with the big tree?" Not to mention holding a grudge, it's too late to be grateful. β
Zhu Sa listened to Zheng Xizhu's humble arguments, and still had a good impression of Zheng Xizhu's self-knowledge, thinking of the moment he met her for the first time, at that time he really had some sympathy for this concubine who was disliked by his mother and sister.
"Miss Zheng San is serious." Zhu Sa smiled and said, "Since we met here, can Miss Zheng San admire her face and sit on the teahouse opposite with this king?" So that this king can know a thing or two about your situation, otherwise wouldn't it be in vain to be the king of Japan to save you? Always make sure you're doing well. β
Zheng Xizhu hesitated, instinctively she wanted to refuse, she was a weak woman with no identity background and went to the teahouse alone with a big man, even if she didn't sit in the box, it would be unruly.
Especially when she thought of Li Gongzi's mother, she looked very harsh like that, if she made any bad remarks, her marriage would be yellow, and she was also sorry for Lin Long who gave her shelter.
After thinking so, she opened her mouth and was about to use a reason to reject the enthusiasm of this prince. "Wang ......"
"Miss Zheng San didn't give face to this king, right? This is a rare invitation from this king, so don't take this king's face lightly. Zhu Sa smiled, but there was a sudden deep chill in his eyes, damn it, a powerless woman dared to brush his face.
It is not impossible to accept this Zheng Xizhu as a concubine, there are not many more concubines in his palace, the main reason is that he wants to use her to contain Ye Xuyao and Lin Long, these two people have gradually become his heart disease. If Ye Xuyao's words made the imperial brother believe it, he would be more fierce than lucky, after all, he had not yet accumulated enough strength to compete with the imperial brother.
But with the queen mother's biological mother, he is not too worried that the imperial brother will directly "click" him, and the queen mother will not agree, Sister Su...... It should also stop the royal brother, so he has nothing to fear.
Zheng Xizhu froze there suddenly, as a concubine, she still has the ability to observe her face, how can she not see the coercion of this prince on her? The scalp suddenly went numb.
"Let's go." Seeing her in a daze, Zhu Sa urged her and took the lead to the teahouse opposite.
This has a taste that cannot be denied.
"Lord Wang, but ......" Zheng Xizhu was busy trying to explain the reason why she was leaving.
Zhu Sa turned his head and looked at her with a gloomy face, he was already a superior, once he no longer released his kindness, this expression was still quite frightening.
Zheng Xizhu's back was cold, and the refusal on her lips swallowed back into her stomach, and she had to follow Zhu Sa to the teahouse.
I was so anxious to cry in my heart, what should I do now? In front of everyone's eyes, she walked into the teahouse with a big man, if her reputation was damaged, this life would be over.
The foot that was about to step on the threshold of the teahouse could not be lifted, and she had the urge to turn away.
"What's wrong?" Zhu Sa saw that she didn't follow, and couldn't help but look back at her.
Zheng Xizhu's face tightened, "Wang...... Lord, is it okay for the little girl to make amends to the prince next time? This one...... The little woman made an appointment with Mrs. Ye, and it was not good for her to wait for a long time......"
"Who does this king think you have dated? Later, this king will personally escort you to the Xiangyang Marquis Mansion, and this king will escort you, what are you afraid of? "Zhu Sa is not the same thing.
"But ......" Zheng Xizhu still looked quite embarrassed.
"What? Drinking a bowl of tea with this king is also wronged by you? Zhu Sa sneered, "If you push back and block, will this king eat you?" β
"No, that's not what the little woman meant," Zheng Xizhu hurriedly explained......
"Since it's not, let's follow up." Zhu Sa commanded coldly.
Zheng Xizhu had no choice but to step in, but before she could go in, she heard someone behind her calling her, "Miss Zheng San?" β
This is the voice of a quite familiar woman, she turned back in surprise, sure enough, it was Su Wen, the former right-hand maid by Lin Long's side, she hurriedly trotted to Su Wen's side, "Did Sister Long call you to pick me up?" β
"Our grandmother waited for a long time for Miss Zheng San's arrival, so she ordered the slave maid to come over along the way to see, what is Miss Zheng San going to do? Our grandmother is waiting. "Su Wendao.
"I met the Nine Princes on the way." Zheng Xizhu was quite aggrieved and said, if this plain pattern appeared a little later, she didn't know if she would be rumored to be scandalous?
Su Wen glanced at her husband, and Bandit Shi nodded knowingly, only to see him come forward and salute Zhu Sa, "I've seen the prince." β
Zhu Sa bowed slightly, which was a response.
"Please forgive me, our grandmother is anxious to see Miss Zheng San, so she sent us to greet her, if the prince wants to talk to Miss Zheng San, please another day, okay?" Bandit Shi hugged his fists and said, "Please don't be embarrassed." β
Zhu Sa heard this, can he say it badly? Lin Long was anxious to see Zheng San, he had no reason to object, not to mention that he didn't use the guise of being in a hurry, otherwise he would want to cover it up, and the gains outweighed the losses.
After thinking about it, he nodded slightly, and smiled like a spring breeze again, "How could this king rob people with the county lord of Yi'an?" Miss Zheng San will leave first, and then talk to the girl about the king of Japan. β
When Zheng Xizhu got this, he immediately curtsied: "The little woman thanked the prince for forgiveness, and he will repay the prince for his kindness that day." β
This is a polite remark, if you really want to invite this prince, you have to become a pro-son and have a husband, and he will come forward to call the shots.
"Well said." Zhu Sa has become what Zheng Xizhu did when he first met him this time, as if the strong and oppressive side just now does not exist.
Zheng Xizhu saluted again, and saw the prince get into the carriage and leave, she was relieved, and her tense nerves relaxed. I saw her clenching Suwen's hand, "Fortunately, Suwen girl came in time." β
Su Wen smiled slightly, she pulled Zheng Xizhu to the carriage, "Miss Zheng San get into the carriage first, let's talk about it in the carriage." β
Zheng Xizhu nodded hurriedly, and got into the carriage without being helped.
Su Wen glanced at her husband, and Bandit nodded, and she climbed into the carriage.
Bandit Shi jumped to the head of the carriage and let the previous coachman walk back.
In the carriage, Zheng Xizhu knew that Lin Long was afraid that she would encounter obstacles on the way to the Hou Mansion, so he ordered the bandit Shi to answer in secret with Su Wen, and if he saw something wrong, he immediately came forward to take Zheng Xizhu away in her name.
In the final analysis, it is to prevent the Nine Princes from making a bad move.
When Zheng Xizhu heard this, her eyes turned red, there was no one in this world who could treat her like Lin Long, and even her own father who gave her life was less than half of Lin Long's.
Su Wen hurriedly took out a handkerchief and wiped Zheng Xizhu's tears, "Miss Zheng San, don't be excited, save yourself from hurting your body, I heard that the girl's happy event is imminent, and it would be bad if she was really sick and couldn't do the wedding." β
Zheng Xizhu took the handkerchief and pressed the corners of her eyes, only then did she notice that Suwen combed the woman's hair ornament, and said in surprise: "Suwen girl is married?" "No wonder she didn't see this big girl waiting by the side when she met Lin Long last time.
Su Wen stroked her hair embarrassedly and nodded with a slightly red face.
Zheng Xizhu hurriedly congratulated her, and then chatted with Su Wen about her daughter's private words.
At this moment, in the South Garden, Lin Long calmed Lin Li's feelings before saying, "Are you really going to do it?" Cousin Li, I heard that if you are sent to a remote place, it will be very bitter, mainly because if your cousin-in-law wants to go out of Beijing? β
It is the dream of many people to become a Beijing official, at least a little closer to the Son of Heaven, and there is a better chance of promotion, but if you are released to be a big official, then it is another matter, such as the former Governor Zheng, who was too greedy to end up capsizing in the gutter.
What she is worried about is that if this is Lin Li's unilateral will, then she is bound to quarrel with Fengshuo's cousin-in-law. In case it doesn't get well and her career is blocked, then it is very likely that she will complain about this cousin for the rest of her life, thinking that it is his wife who hinders his future, which is not a sentence that can explain it clearly, but I am afraid that this cousin will live in the shadow of her husband for the rest of her life.
Lin Li's face was gloomy and said, "I haven't discussed it with him yet, I'm afraid he won't want to go out of Beijing." He was still very happy to be able to enter the Hanlin Academy this time, after all, his father and mother were here. Her voice trembled a little at this moment, "But I don't want to stay in Beijing, if my cousin-in-law can help arrange for him to go to Suzhou and Hangzhou, I think he is willing." β
This is the reason why she hopes to go to Jiangnan as soon as she opens her mouth, her maiden home is in Suzhou, if she gets there closer to her mother's house, and take care of each other, no matter how she thinks about it, it is a good thing for her.
Lin Long completely understood what Lin Li meant at this time, this was basically to cut first and then play, and use the fait accompli to force Feng Shuo to comply, there was a little worry in her eyes, "Cousin Li, it's better for you to go back and discuss it with your cousin-in-law, this matter is not a joke, if your cousin-in-law resists a lot, you will lose more than you gain." After a pause, "And the vacancy can't be filled in a while, you also know that Jiangnan is a rich place, and it is not so easy to do it because many people are staring at it." β
In fact, this is not a difficult thing for the Xiangyang Hou Mansion, Ye Xuyao really wants to make a vacancy for a minor official in Jiangnan, there are still some of them, the reason why she said this is that she still hopes that Lin Li and Fengshuo can reach an agreement on this issue.
As far as the two times she had only seen it, Feng Shuo was gentle and gentle, but if he became stubborn, he was afraid that Lin Li would be separated from him.
Lin Li's face darkened, "I know, if he can't do well, he will rely on me for the rest of his life, there is no impermeable wall in the world, he will always know that I am operating behind the scenes to let him out of Beijing." But I ...... I really don't want to stay in Feng Fu anymore......"
Speaking of this, she sobbed loudly, this life after marrying someone is not as good as she imagined, and no matter how many grievances she suffers, she can only knock out her teeth and swallow blood.
Lin Long looked at this cousin crying like a helpless child, it's been nearly half a year, why can't she adapt to the life of her husband's family? She moved closer and stretched out her hand to hold Lin Li in her arms to comfort her, "I used to see that my cousin was also a tough person, how could she become water as soon as she got married?" β
"I don't want to." Lin Li barely held back her tears, and pressed the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, "Let my cousin see the joke." β
"Let's say stupid things, we are cousins, the same ancestor, what kind of joke do I see you?" Lin Long said, "Okay, I'll talk to your cousin-in-law about this and see if it can be as you wish, but there is one, you have to say hello to your cousin-in-law first, otherwise he won't be stupid if he is appointed?" β
As soon as Lin Li heard that there was a chance to succeed in this matter, he immediately burst into laughter, "I will discuss it with him, I don't think he will object too much." Sister Long, thank you. β
"Our two sisters, say a kind word of thank you, and then say if you can go to Jiangnan to talk about it." Lin Long didn't say anything to death.
Lin Li hopes to go out of Beijing as much as possible, and he has to see where there are vacancies for a while.
"It's okay if you don't go to Jiangnan." Lin Li said ruthlessly.
Lin Long nodded, "You can give birth to one, have a son and a half daughter, don't be too anxious in the future, you can always have a second one slowly." β
"I think so too, it's easier to get pregnant when I go out." Lin Li was not as excited as when she first came, "It was not easy to get along well with the concubine, but this mother-in-law and sister-in-law are so difficult to die, I am afraid of them." β
sighed slightly, at this time she deeply reflected on herself, before she came out of the cabinet, she was actually almost the same, it turned out that her previous self was so annoying.
Lin Long saw that her mood was much calmer, so she put her mind at ease and began to tell her cousin the knowledge she had heard that would help her conceive.
Lin Li's eyes widened when she heard this, although she got along well with the two sisters-in-law, but they didn't tell her this, it is estimated that after she is really pregnant, the two sisters-in-law will be jealous, so she never asks about these things.
For a married woman, this is too normal to communicate.
When the two were talking energetically, Ruxia came in to report: "Grandma, Miss Zheng San has picked it up." β
Lin Long sat down again, raised his head and said, "Please let her in." β
"Yes." Ruxia was ordered to go out.
When Zheng Xizhu came in, he was stunned when he saw Lin Li sitting, and then stepped forward to salute.
Lin Li didn't sit down to receive the salute, and also returned the salute, even if this Zheng Xizhu is a concubine, it is also an official girl.
She was not familiar with Zheng Xizhu, and she wanted to come to Lin Long to ask Zheng Xizhu to discuss something, so she took this opportunity to say goodbye and prepare to go home.
"But I'm here to disturb me?" Zheng Xizhu was uneasy.
Lin Li said with a smile: "It's not about Miss Zheng San, it's my family that has something to do, it's not good to delay any longer, Sister Long, I'll go back first." β
Lin Long didn't hold back, but nodded lightly.
Lin Li, as when she came, left in a hurry.
Su Wen took this opportunity to get close to Lin Long and report to his master about the encounter with the Nine Kings on the road.
Lin Long's brows furrowed slightly, this Nine Princes is really a thief, how could he not see that this person was golden and jade, and she was ruined, she said that she would not let Zheng Xizhu get on his quasi-sinking ship. The picture of the Gao family being slashed all over the door flashed in his mind, and he suddenly shuddered, the Nine Princes are now walking on this tightrope, and no one knows when he will fall from it?
"You've got it done." Lin Long praised Su Wen, "I have a reward when I look back." β
Suwen is calm, so she deliberately pulled her to do this with the bandits, and finally it was not in vain.
Su Wen smiled and said, "Thank you, grandma." β
Lin Long then motioned for her to go out, and then turned his head to look at Zheng Xizhu, "Third sister, aren't you frightened?" Lord Jiu, he didn't do anything to you, did he? β
"It's okay, the prince is a little weird." In front of Lin Long, Zheng Xizhu has always had a sentence to say.
"What's the weird way?" Lin Long asked.
"I always felt like he was ...... I didn't have a good heart,...... Zheng Xizhu snorted, for fear that he would upset Lin Long by saying bad things about the Nine Princes.
Lin Long was greatly comforted, but fortunately, Zheng Xizhu was defensive, and he didn't pounce on a man like the Nine Princes who was well-born, tall, and handsome. "Fortunately, the third sister is sober-minded."
Zheng Xizhu was taken aback, "Sister Long, is there really a problem with this Nine Princes?" But I don't have anything to figure it out for him. β
"Shh Lin Long raised his index finger and whispered to his lips, "You can eat things indiscriminately, you can't talk nonsense, third sister, I'm doing this for your good, some things are better than knowing happiness." He is a big man who goes to the teahouse with you to drink tea, and you will become famous for this drink, unless you want to enter the palace as a concubine, otherwise you don't drink this tea. β
Zheng Xizhu's mother is a concubine, and she is a concubine's daughter, she knows that her concubine is different, where do she want her child to be from such a background? This is also why she would rather marry a poor family as a wife, so that her children can be grandchildren, so that people can look up to them.
"Sister Long, I know, in short, I don't have to be a concubine with anyone, no matter how good these nine princes are, it has nothing to do with me."
Lin Long patted Zheng Xizhu's hand, "Third sister, that's right." After a pause, "Actually, I called you for my purpose, I guess you can guess it, what?" Are you satisfied with this Li family's son? β
As soon as the blind date was mentioned, Zheng Xizhu looked shy, and whispered: "The third sister is in charge of Sister Long." β
In addition to Lin Long, she has no one to rely on, and if this marriage does not have Lin Long, it will not be on her head.
"Fool, you must be in charge of this marriage." Lin Long never took care of everything, so he didn't have to complain in the future, "The Li family is not a rich family, you have to think about this clearly." β
Zheng Xizhu heard Lin Long say solemnly, so he didn't care about being shy, looked at Lin Long with his eyes, and nodded heavily, "I don't care if he is a son of a rich family, as long as others are good." β
When Lin Long heard this, he nodded slightly, "Third sister, I know what you mean, his personality and my husband can also find out clearly, but you have to rely on yourself in the future married life." β
Zheng Xizhu's eyes moistened slightly and said, "I know." β
"Third sister, I can help you as much as possible, but I can't live for you, you have to understand this." Lin Long has always had sympathy for this girl from a low background, after all, Zheng Xizhu's life is not easy.
"Hmm." Zheng Xizhu nodded heavily.
Lin Long saw that Zheng Xizhu was really in favor of this marriage, and he also had a little bottom in his heart, as long as Lang had a mistress's intention, it would be easy to do, "I see that this marriage should not be delayed any longer, so as to save more dreams at night, I will choose a good day with Li's mother to do the happy event of the two of you." After a pause, "When your grandmother returned to Suzhou, she put your dowry with me, and I will give you another makeup at that time, so that you can have no worries about food and clothing in the future......
Zheng Xizhu didn't expect Lin Long to think so far for her, so she immediately got up and bowed down with emotion, "Sister Long's kindness, Xizhu can't repay it, I would like to thank you for this worship." β
"Hurry up, what are you doing?" Lin Long hurriedly said and wanted to bend down to help her, but her big belly didn't agree, so she hurriedly asked her to get up.
Zheng Xizhu got up at this time, sat on the side and wiped her tears.
Lin Long had to comfort and persuade him, and Zheng Xizhu stopped crying and laughing.
Lin Long was reluctant to delay this marriage, and he was also afraid that the Nine Princes would make a stumbling block from it, so he couldn't wait for Ming'er to marry Zheng Xizhu, but he was afraid that the Li family's mother and son would be suspicious, thinking that there was something wrong with Xizhu, so he had to press it.
At this time, I just took the opportunity to discuss the marriage with Zheng Xizhu to see what the bride wanted?
The marriage was discussed happily here, and Lin Li, who was on the other side, returned to the house and saw that the two women sent by her mother-in-law, Feng Chen, were revolving around her husband, and she was immediately furious.
Feng Shuo was also very embarrassed, and when he saw his wife standing by the door with a hesitant face, he hurriedly got up and said, "Lady, are you back?" I'm going to go to the study. β
The two women wanted to catch up, but they were stopped by Lin Li, only to see Lin Li sneering: "Who allowed you to trespass on the territory of the third room?" β
"We were sent by our wife...... one of the women had the audacity to retort to Lin Li.
"Even if it is sent by the wife, it is still a slave when it comes to me, not to mention that the wife didn't say that she will open her face to you now, so go back to your room now, remember that this is the territory of the third room." Lin Li angrily pointed to the door and shouted for her personal maid to come out and drive the two obstructive women back to their rooms.
The woman who boldly refuted Lin Li before still had something to say, but was ripped away by another slightly more eye-catching one.
As soon as they arrived at the cloister, the bold woman said disdainfully: "We have a wife to support us, what are we afraid of her?" β
"You are stupid, she is still the wife of the third master, what good can we do with her as a tough enemy? When we envelop the third master's heart, are we afraid that she, the third grandmother, will not succeed? "The other is more thoughtful, and will pull the bold one, but he is also afraid that he will be implicated by her and make himself have no good fruit to eat.
"The third master has a gentle temperament, if we can lure him to climb into our bed, we can be invincible......"
"That's right, it would be even better if Mr. Third Grandma had the eldest son earlier......"
When the two women said this, they looked at each other and smiled, and they seemed to be sure of giving birth to their eldest son, not to mention that Feng Chen had promised them that as long as they could lure the third master into their bed, they would immediately open their faces and become aunts.
"I can help you get what you want."
Hearing this voice, the two women were shocked, and they looked at the source of the voice, behind the red pillar.
"Who, come out?"
It was the rather bold woman who shouted first.
Lin Lin quietly walked out slowly from behind the red pillar, she has always been dressed gloomy since she entered the Feng family, either dark brown or gray black, so the whole person looks quite dark, seeing the guarded eyes of the two people, she raised her eyebrows and said, "I am waiting for the girl." β
mentioned that they were waiting for Feng Jing, and the two women put away their hostility.
The cautious woman said, "You think you can help us?" β
"Of course." Lin Lin took out a pack of medicine from his arms and approached the two, "This is urging ****, you know." β
The two women glanced at each other, a gentle person like the third master is actually not easy to pull into bed, if you use medicine, you can indeed achieve your wish faster, but ......
"Why are you helping us?" The two spoke almost in unison.
"Because I want you to succeed." Lin Lin raised the urging **** in his hand, "My medicine is not easy to find, it is colorless and odorless, but as long as you smell it for a quarter of an hour or eat a little fingernail, it can be effective, even if it is Yanagishita Megumi, it will be incarnated seven times a night, this is a palace secret medicine." The last four words were extremely mysterious.
This is not a lie, she has been messing with the father and son of the Chang family for so long, how can she not know such a secret medicine with aphrodisiac effect, so she deducted some of it at that time in case it is not needed, and it really came in handy.
Lin Lin's words were very tempting, the two women looked at each other again, and finally it was the bold woman who reached out and quickly took the medicine bag from Lin Lin's fingertips.
"I'm waiting for your good news, if one day I become an aunt and give birth to my eldest son, don't forget me." Lin Lin said with a smile.
The two women nodded quickly, then quickly left.
Lin Lin didn't care about their avoidance attitude, but looked at the main room coldly, Lin Li wanted to be happy, no way! As for Lin Long, she also has to go to the underworld for her, so that she can relieve her hatred.
With a sneer, she turned to leave.
Turning back to Feng Jing's house, Feng Chen was also there, and when he saw her appear, he said unhappily: "Where did you go?" β
Lin Lin became more and more disgusted with this Feng Chen clan, but who told her to look up to her snort now, so she pretended to be frightened, "The slave went to the garden and went around ......"
"Didn't I tell you not to wander around?" Feng Chen's immediately made it difficult for his daughter to contact such a gloomy person again, so he said, "Ming'er, you can go." β
"Mrs. ......"
Lin Li hurriedly called out, and secretly looked at Feng Jing.
Feng Jing was brainwashed by Lin Lin, and she was convinced of her words, so she hurriedly pulled her mother and said, "Mother, Lin Lin is my benefactor, you can't treat her like this." β
"Jing'er, my mother is all for your good." Feng Chen said angrily.
"Anyway, I don't care, I don't agree to drive Lin Lin away." Once Feng Jing has a seizure, even Feng Chen's family will not take care of her.
After a quarrel between the mother and daughter, Feng Chen's family was defeated again, but they couldn't resist their daughter's persistence.
After Feng Chen left angrily, Lin Li stepped forward to salute Feng Jing, "Thank you girl for speaking up." β
"Not only for you, but also for myself." Feng Jing said, "This time you have a very good idea, send two Tongfang to Lin Li, and slap her in the face, it is best to let my third brother divorce her." As soon as she said this, she hated it so much, especially when the third sister-in-law had just gone out again, and she was going to the Xiangyang Hou Mansion, so she gritted her silver teeth with hatred.
Lin Lin stepped forward to change a bowl of tea for Feng Jing, "The show is still to come, don't be too anxious, girl, by the way, girl, you have to prepare in advance for this palace draft." β
"I don't need you to tell me, I'll be ready for anything." Feng Jing didn't expect that after losing the opportunity of the Xiangyang Marquis Mansion, she would still have the opportunity to enter the palace, once she became the imperial concubine, at that time, even Lin Long would have to crouch under her feet.
Just thinking about this picture makes her blood boil, she wants to get the emperor, and at this moment she clenches her fists and is bound to win, no matter what, she has to fight for this breath.
Lin Lin didn't say anything, if Feng Jing really became the imperial concubine, it would definitely be a good thing for her, and it would be much easier for her to take revenge on Lin Long and Lin Li.
Glancing at Feng Chen's back outside the window, this dead old woman repeatedly looked for her, damn it, her eyes rolled back and forth, as if she was turning some kind of idea.
Then the corners of her mouth rose slightly, and sooner or later she would show the old woman the color.
Lin Li didn't know that there was a black hand hidden in her house, but at this moment, she entered the study after changing into home clothes, and saw that her husband was reading, so she stepped forward to rub his shoulder.
"Why are you so nice to me?" Feng Shuo thought that she came in to argue with him, after all, he didn't harden his heart and drive away the two women.
"Husband, I know you're just too good at talking." Lin Li didn't plan to quarrel with him, so he put a high hat on him.
"Lady." His wife's expression made Feng Shuo even more guilty, just like when he came back from a trip that day, when he saw his wife greeting him with a smile, at that moment he vowed to cherish his wife, "It's all wrong for the husband, don't worry, I won't touch them, before you give birth to a child, I will never take a concubine, let the concubine come before the concubine." β
Hearing this, Lin Li's toothache was unbearable, and he was not half moved in his heart, feeling that he would take a concubine in the future? No woman would want her husband to embrace another woman, she couldn't be an exception, taking a deep breath, she tried to force herself to look ecstatic, "Husband, really? β
"Of course it's true." Feng Shuo was busy with her assurances.
Lin Li sat in her husband's arms, hooking his neck with both hands, "Husband, I have an idea that I don't know if to say or not......
Such a gentle wife, Fengsheng is naturally loving, so she said softly: "You said, as long as I can do it, I will definitely get it for you." β
Lin Li saw that he was in a good mood now, and his mind turned for a while, and then he said: "Husband, it's not a big deal, that is, if you think about it, this business will be a big house sooner or later, he is the eldest son, and we can't go beyond him." You have just entered the Jinshi now, and it is difficult to do anything if you stay in Beijing now, if you can have a good position to go out of Beijing to experience, it is not a good thing......"
She portrayed the matter of going out of Beijing as an official, whether it was realized or not, at least for her, it was an opportunity to break the dull life of Fengfu, and she was not pregnant with a child, so it was normal for her to go to work with her husband.
"Out of Beijing?" Feng Shuo frowned, in fact, he was not unimpressed, if there was a better opportunity, he would naturally be willing to go out of Beijing, "Lady, our family foundation is not deep, I'm afraid it will be difficult to fight for a favorable position......"
With his father's relationship, I'm afraid that there will be no good opportunities to operate, so he can only stay in the Hanlin Academy with peace of mind.
When Lin Li heard this, her husband didn't seem to have any resistance, and he was immediately overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "I'll go to the Xiangyang Marquis Mansion in two days, as long as my cousin-in-law is willing to make a move, isn't it easy for us to go to Jiangnan to serve as an official?" β
The word Jiangnan made Fengshuo's eyes light up, it was a rich place, "Is it really that good?" β
"How do you know if you can succeed if you don't try?" Lin Li continued to agitate, as long as her husband was willing to try, even if he didn't take up a post in Jiangnan, he would not complain, this was his choice.
Feng Shuo didn't know that his wife was fooling him, and for him, if he could go to Jiangnan, it would indeed be better than working hard in the Hanlin Academy.
The more the husband and wife combined, the more happy they became, and Fengshuo felt that marrying Lin Li was really the noble person in his life, otherwise, according to what his wife said, in the future, he would be limited in what his young son could get, so it was better to go and break it himself.
The hearts of the people in Fengfu are fluctuating, everyone has their own careful thoughts, and the abacus is "crackling".
When night fell, Ye Xuyao came home and saw Zheng Xizhu sitting, he knew that he was discussing marriage, and when he saw his wife nodding to him secretly, he immediately knew in his heart.
Zheng Xizhu blushed and saluted Ye Xuyao.
Ye Xuyao nodded lightly in response.
Zheng Xizhu has always been apprehensive about Lin Long's husband, so when she saw him come back, she didn't stay long, but got up to say goodbye and go back.
Lin Long stopped her, "It's dark this day, I'm afraid it's not safe for you to go back, just stay in the mansion tonight, I'll let you take you to the guest house." "I know you're a little afraid of him, so I won't leave you for dinner, and I'll have someone bring it to the guest house later, but it's hard for you to eat alone." β
"No, it's not difficult." Zheng Xizhu hurriedly waved her hand, "Sister Long doesn't have to take care of me, I can do it." β
Whether it is in the Hou Mansion or the Lin family, she is just a guest, or the kind of guest who eats white food.
Lin Long patted her hand and sent her out, then turned around and entered the inner room.
"She's gone?" Ye Xuyao put on home clothes on one side and said on the other.
Lin Long stepped forward to take a hand, "Let's go, I'm afraid that she will meet the Nine Princes on the way back, so I'll leave her in the mansion for a night." β
"You're so concerned about her." Ye Xuyao muttered dissatisfiedly, having this heart should be spent on him and the child.
"You even have to worry about this?" Lin Long glanced at her husband and said angrily.
"Am I careful? Joke. Ye Xuyao will not admit that he is a stingy person.
Lin Long didn't argue with him, asking him to admit that sometimes it was more difficult than Dengzai, so as not to be angry, so he told his own man what happened today one by one.
Ye Xuyao listened carefully, and soon made a decision, "The marriage between Zheng Xizhu and the Li family will be arranged at the beginning of next month, and in two days, let my mother accept her as a righteous daughter, so that the idea of the Ninth Prince to beat her should also be considered." As for your cousin's affairs, it's easy to handle, this salt case has been brushed down by a lot of people, and it's not difficult to fill a vacancy, but don't reveal this matter to them too early. β
"I know." Lin Long has never been a big mouth, but when she heard her husband's detailed arrangements, she couldn't help but be grateful, "It's all my business, but in the end, it will trouble you, husband, marry me, will you also marry a troublesome ......"
"You don't know until now?" Ye Xuyao looked like she was so sluggish.
Lin Long was not happy when he heard it, the woman was so cautious, she would rather say it herself than let people criticize her, and turned around to leave.
Ye Xuyao hugged her thick waist from behind, and a warm breath sprayed on the top of her head, "Fool, this is going to be angry, if you are in trouble, it is also a trouble that I am willing to marry back." β
When Lin Long heard this, she was a little angry, turned her head and glared at her husband, and finally held his arm after the rain, "I let people eat, let's eat now." β
Ye Xuyao gently pinched the bridge of her pretty nose and walked out of the inner room with her.
Zheng Xizhu was unexpectedly accepted as a righteous daughter by Ye Zhong's family, and the three daughters of the Zheng family who came out of this concubine can be regarded as flying on the branches, and they are about to marry Li Jianlin, a bachelor of Hanlin, and such an accident caught the ninth prince Zhu Sa off guard.
He sneered and threw the birdcage to the ground, if it weren't for Su Ziyu's words that day, he would have used the emperor's brother's words to force Zheng Xizhu to enter the mansion, but Su Ziyu had passed the bright road there, and it was not easy to regret it now.
He is not afraid of the trouble of the Xiangyang Marquis Mansion, but he is afraid that his sister Su will look down on him and think that he is a man with lust.
Therefore, he found Li Jianlin, as long as the Li family withdraws from his family, it will be much easier for him to admit Zheng Xizhu into the house.
Ye Xuyao, who passed by the corner of the Hanlin Academy, naturally didn't miss seeing this scene, only to see him squint his eyes slightly, and he didn't come forward to disturb, just watched from this side of the world.
"Master, do you want to step forward and stop it?" Bandit Jian said in a deep voice.
"No, you don't."
Ye Xuyao didn't care what Zhu Sa and Li Jianlin said, if Li Jianlin was such a person who wavered lightly, then this marriage would be done, so that Zheng Xizhu would turn around and let the cartilage man send it out, if he really got to that step, he would not let Zheng Xizhu spoil his big thing.
But it's a good idea, and it's best if you don't go this far.
He stood in place and watched Zhu Sa condescendingly talk to Li Jianlin, but although Li Jianlin was from a humble family, his posture was neither humble nor arrogant, which made Ye Xuyao quite appreciative.
After a long time, the two separated, Li Jianlin bowed down to see off Zhu Sa, the prince of the dynasty, and then straightened up and looked at Zhu Sa's back, turned around and left with a calm face.
He didn't take a few steps to see Ye Xuyao appear in front of him like a descending from the sky.
He was slightly startled, took two steps back, and saluted Ye Xuyao, "I've seen Ye Houye." β
"Master Li, I didn't expect you and the prince to be old acquaintances?" Ye Xuyao said.
"Hou Ye misunderstood, Xia Guan and Wang Ye only met for the first time, and they have no friendship, where did they get their old acquaintance?" Li Jianlin clearly put aside the relationship between the two, thinking of the idle prince asking about his fiancΓ©e, such a greeting seemed random, but it actually hinted to him that he had a great relationship with Zheng Xizhu.
What can a woman raised in the boudoir have to do with the prince of the dynasty? He was suspicious and didn't believe it very much, so he prevaricated the Nine Princes.
Now that he has met Ye Xuyao, and this matchmaker is the one he pulls, he naturally wants to ask clearly, "Master Hou, there is something you want to ask clearly?" β
"Say it."
Li Jianlin saw that Ye Xuyao was not jealous, so he said the doubtful words in his heart, and finally added, "It's not that I don't believe in Miss Zheng's reputation, but if you marry a wife and marry a virtuous person, I hope that the Hou Ye will forgive me." β
Ye Xuyao chuckled, every time he smiled, he had the illusion of a hundred flowers blooming, Li Jianlin was slightly surprised, and then his face was as usual.
"If you have doubts in your heart, why do you want to marry her?"
Explaining something, Ye Houye said that he didn't bother to do it, and he doubted Zheng Xizhu at this time, isn't he just doubting him.
When Li Jianlin heard this, he was stunned and watched Ye Xuyao pass by him.
He didn't catch up and say anything to admit his mistake, after all, he really had doubts in his heart at this time.
He returned home and told his mother, Li Guanshi, about it.
Li Guanshi glanced at his son, put down the shuttle in his hand, and got up from the loom, "You are stupid, if the girl of the Zheng family can climb the prince, will she still find you as a poor child?" Although you are a Jinshi of this department, where is your future? No one can say well, if she enters the palace as a concubine, I am afraid that she will also eat and drink spicy food. β
Mother's words suddenly seemed to be enlightened, and Li Jianlin suddenly realized that if Zheng Xizhu wanted to climb the high branches, it would not be his turn to pick this delicate flower.
That's right, just looking at the painting, he was lovesick to this Zheng San girl.
Li Guanshi saw that his son had woken up, and only then did he command in a deep voice, "Ming'er has prepared a courtesy, and I will go to Ye's house with you to apologize to Miss Zheng." β
"Yes, mother." Li Jianlin bowed to his mother.
"You kid is too sincere, you can't be so soft in the future, you can't accept all what others say, just listen to what others deliberately provoke." Li Guanshi said, "Then Miss Zheng San is the righteous daughter of the Ye family, and it is not surprising to know the Nine Princes, what kind of family is the Ye family?" You know better than I do, don't be so confused in the future. β
Li Jianlin felt even more embarrassed, and nodded hurriedly to agree with his mother's words.
The next day, the Li family came to apologize, Ye Zhong and Lin Long were slightly surprised, but they were extremely satisfied with the Li family's attitude.
Especially Lin Long, she deliberately looked at this Li Guan's family, although this old woman looked strict, but she could see that she was very principled, otherwise she would not be able to teach a son like Li Jianlin, so she could not rest assured that Zheng Xizhu would marry into the Li family.
During the period of tossing, it can be endured until June 20, Zheng Xizhu put on a wedding dress and went out of the Hou Mansion from the Hou Mansion, and the Hou Mansion also put up lanterns and played gongs and drums, which is not as good as the marriage of the concubine, but for Zheng Xizhu, the righteous daughter who recognized it, it is already quite out of line.
Ye Qin's family had a lot of complaints, wasn't it just a righteous daughter who recognized it, and put on this posture, snorting his nose to show disdain.
Lin Long has been pregnant for more than nine months, and her belly is round and quite big, so it is impossible to go to the front to see Zheng Xizhu crying and marrying.
All the relatives of the Ye family have returned home, including Wang Ye, who loves to make trouble, and this time she still brought her little daughter-in-law Wang Zhou to arrive.
Lin Long glanced at it twice, this Wang Zhou really had the means, and he could win Wang Ye's picky mother-in-law to like her so much, and he didn't even bring his eldest daughter-in-law, but he brought her.
A large group of women were sitting there talking.
Ye Zhong was busy with the wedding in front of him, but he didn't come over to talk, so Ye Tian sat next to Lin Long to take care of her.
"I saw that my nephew and daughter-in-law's baby was a little rounder than the last time I saw her, don't you give birth to two daughters like the fourth brother and sister, right?" Ye Wang's family in the second room squinted slightly and looked at Lin Long's fetal tract.
Lin Long stroked his belly, "I don't know, but Wen Po said that the fetus is fine." She smiled as she said this, and looked like she had everything in her hands.
"It's good for the two daughters, like my Han'er and Lian'er, they are intimate little padded jackets." The fourth lady Ye Cheng's interface.
"That's right, bloom first and then bear fruit." This time, even Ye Peng's family in the fifth room interjected, she wished that this nephew and daughter-in-law would have a daughter, and see how arrogant she was.
Wang Ye's aunt and grandmother are not willing to be lonely, "Don't be unconvinced, nephew and daughter-in-law, this person has to accept his fate, and it is naturally good to have a man for one child, but sometimes if you can't ask for it, you can't ask for it......"
Everyone was talking about Lin Long's baby, but the corner of his eye was clearly watching a good show, waiting for Lin Long to give birth to a daughter, and they could be considered satisfied.
"If you really give birth to a daughter, I'm afraid the old marquis will be sad." Ye Qin glanced at Lin Long's round belly, this fetus is really like giving birth to a daughter, she is not interested in losing money.
Listening to the words of these three aunts and six mothers-in-law, Lin Long was not angry, but the Ye Tian clan beside him was upset for Lin Long, "A group of rat-eyed and vicious people, nephews and daughters-in-law, don't be angry......"
"What am I doing when I'm angry? Anyway, when they say theirs, I won't lose a cold hair, and I can't get along with myself. "Lin Long is open-minded.
Too many people say that she is going to have a daughter, if she really wants to think about everything, can she still sit comfortably?
Ye Tian's family saw that Lin Long's old god was there, and he was a little relieved, "By the way, I think you're about to give birth, have you found this stable woman?" β
"Found." Lin Long said with a smile, "Mother-in-law found two experienced stable mothers, who also delivered babies to mother-in-law at the beginning, and the queen mother in the palace also sent two equally experienced stable mothers. β
Her fetal position has always been very positive, which is also thanks to Ye Zhong's dedication at the beginning, and has always let the trustworthy Wen Po follow the whole process, and cooperate with Mama Shang, if she finds that the fetal position is slightly wrong, she will start to adjust it, and prepare for the time of delivery.
"Sister-in-law Yao, this is the clothes I made for my little niece, you can take it." Ye Guishi, the daughter-in-law of the second room, smiled and handed the small clothes in her hand to Lin Long.
She was just diagnosed with Ximai last month, and she was so happy that she laughed at everyone during this time, and she was the one who wished most for Lin Long to give birth, so that she would give birth to her eldest great-grandson, and she would definitely be able to slap Lin Long in the face.
Ye Tian couldn't get used to seeing the proud face of this nephew and daughter-in-law, wasn't it just that he had just been diagnosed with a happy pulse? With her doing this, this is not adding to Lin Long's blockage.
Lin Long gently pressed his hand on Ye Tian's hand, shook his head at the sixth aunt, and then looked at Ye Gui's with a bright smile, "I don't need this, I have too many clothes for this man and woman, plus my stepmother has rewarded several large boxes from the palace, my mother-in-law, my second mother and others have done a lot, it is estimated that when I finish giving birth to this, the next second and third children will not be able to use it up," and then pushed the clothes back into Ye Gui's arms, "It's better to leave it to your cousins and sisters." β
When this last sentence came out, Ye Gui's face changed greatly, wasn't this cursing her for giving birth to a daughter for the first time in disguise? "You!"
"Do unto others as you would have them do unto you." Lin Long sneered.
She's just treating others the way she does.
Ye Gui's face turned red with anger, "Who doesn't know that you are going to give birth to a daughter?" What's the use of you doing this......"
"Brother Yan's daughter-in-law!" Ye Tian saw that Ye Gui was talking more and more, and immediately drank it.
Ye Gui's family didn't eat the set of the six aunts, and immediately sneered at each other, "What if I say it?" What can you do with me......"
Lin Long saw that this quarrel had attracted the elders, and she hurriedly got up to stop the quarrel between the two, she was afraid that the Ye Tian clan would suffer. It's just that she is together, but her stomach is falling down, her eyebrows are wrinkled, and she feels the wetness between her legs, and the feeling of falling is getting stronger and stronger, and the pain follows.
Ye Tian's clan, who only cared about quarrelling, didn't notice Lin Long's abnormality, and blindly taught Ye Gui's clan a lesson.
"What's the noise?" Ye Qin's clan shouted angrily.
"Yes, sixth brother and sister, what are you doing here? Is it true to bully my daughter-in-law? Ye Wang said unhappily.
Babbling began to sound.
Lin Long snorted in pain, and the big girl Ruxia beside her immediately noticed the abnormality of her grandmother, and hurriedly exclaimed, "Grandma? β
This exclamation brought everyone back to their senses, and their eyes immediately looked at Lin Long, and soon found that her skirt was soaked.
Ye Tian touched it with his hand and said busily: "The amniotic water is broken, and the nephew and daughter-in-law are about to give birth......
Lin Long bit his lower lip to stop himself from snorting at this time, and after the people at the scene were stunned, they immediately took action.
Lin Long didn't have time to return to Nanyuan to give birth, so he moved to the nearest wing room, boiled hot water, and invited the four stable women over immediately.
Everyone outside the house looked around, including Ye Qin's family, at this time, they were all waiting with bated breath to see if Lin Long would give birth to a daughter or a son, as for the wedding banquet or something, they were all left behind, how could it be so important for Lin Long to give birth?
As soon as Ye Zhong's wedding was completed, he received a report from his subordinates and immediately rushed over without kicking.
"Why did you move so quickly?" She asked nervously.
The crowd was silent.
Ye Tian's friendship with Lin Long said resentfully: "It's not that Brother Yan's daughter-in-law is talking nonsense, so Brother Yao's daughter-in-law is moving......"
"I didn't ......," Ye Gui retorted in a low voice, but this was unreasonable.
Ye Zhongshi glared fiercely at the daughter-in-law in the second room, and then looked at Ye Wang's family coldly, "If my grandson has three long and two short, I will skin you afterwards." β
"Sister-in-law......" Ye Wang wanted to argue a few words.
Ye Chengshi pulled Ye Wang's sleeve and motioned her to say a few words, didn't she see that Ye Zhong's was already angry?
Ye Wang's mouth was tightly closed.
Ye Zhongshi entered the delivery room and looked, and Wen Po said that the birth canal was not completely opened, and it would take a while.
"Daughter-in-law, don't worry, it'll be fine, when the birth canal opens, you can push the child out hard, it's easy." She stroked Lin Long's hand and ordered, for fear that she would be timid.
The pain came and went, but Lin Long didn't hurt too much for a while, "I know, mother-in-law." β
"I asked someone to boil some soup, you drink it while it's hot, and you have to keep your body until you are alive." Ye Zhong hurriedly asked Xiu Satin to bring the soup and fed Lin Long to drink it himself.
After seeing that Lin Long looked good, he said again, "I have asked someone to inform your mother's family, and they are estimated to be coming soon......
This was a great comfort to Lin Long, and he shook Ye Zhong's hand, "Thank you, mother-in-law." β
"Silly boy, I'm talking stupid things again."
Lin Long wanted to reply, but her stomach began to hurt again, and she couldn't even say everything, so she could only endure it.
Ye Zhong hurriedly got out of the way and asked Wen Po to come over and take a look, is this birth canal open?
Lin Lushi received the news from the Hou Mansion of Xiangyang, and immediately prepared a carriage to rush to the Hou Mansion, including Lin Qi and Lin Dong were all nervous.
Lin Qi even began to pray, hoping that the eldest sister could give birth to a big fat boy.
By the time they arrived, Lin Long's cry of pain had become sharp.
"Raw?" Lin Lu hurriedly asked.
"Not yet, the birth canal is just fully open." Ye Zhong's said.
Lin Lu's scalp was numb when she heard Lin Long's cry of pain inside, she had never given birth to a child, but she also knew that it was not easy to have a child, so she patrolled her eyes, "Why didn't you see our aunt?" β
"He just sent his relatives off, and I've already had someone inform him to return." Ye Zhong's said.
Lin Lu was a little relieved at this time, this woman was in pain inside, and it made sense to let this man listen to it no matter what.
At this time, the courtyard was already full of people, and the brothers Ye Lao Hou Ye and Ye Mingsui all arrived one by one, this is the fourth generation heir of the Xiangyang Hou Mansion, and everyone is looking forward to whether this is a boy or a girl.
Even if it is rumored to be a daughter, how can it be true? Especially the old marquis Ye, he is looking forward to this eldest great-grandson for a long time.
Even Ye Mingsui waited patiently, and in a while, he would be promoted to a grandfather, which was wonderful to think about.
Ye Xuyao was sweating profusely when he rushed over, where can he still take care of his appearance when he has always loved to be neat? When he heard the news, he didn't even send it to his relatives, and immediately turned around the carriage and rushed back, and his wife's birth was the first priority.
"Did my wife give birth?" The first thing he said when he came over and opened his mouth was that he had to go straight to the delivery room.
Ye Zhong hurriedly stopped his son, "Your daughter-in-law is still giving birth inside, men can't enter, you wait here quietly......"
"Why can't I get in?" Ye Xuyao is more serious than his mother, he has seen Lin Long's whole body, will he care about watching her give birth?
"It's the rule." Ye Zhong said busily.
Just when the mother and son were at a stalemate, there was a baby's cry inside, and then a stable woman came out happily with the baby, "Congratulations to the Hou Ye, happy to add your ...... son"ββ
