Beihou Mansion in Jingcheng Town.

Xu Taijun sat on the couch, covered with a blanket, his eyelids drooped, and he didn't look at his son standing on the couch, and after a while, he said slowly: "You are not at home at night these days, where are you staying?" ”

"Mother, what about my son's ...... in the suburbs of Beijing?"

Xiao Donghai explained with a smile, and before he finished speaking, he saw Xu Taijun "snap", slapped his hand on the edge of the couch, and reprimanded in a deep voice: "Are you bullying me for being confused?" You are now a first-class general, and your status in the Shenji Battalion on the outskirts of Beijing is also transcendent, you don't have to stay an inch like before, do you think I don't know? You don't belong these days, you think I can't see it? You tell me honestly, what the hell is going on? The girls all say that you like to go to the plane tree at every turn, what do you think about it? ”

Xiao Donghai was silent, thought for a while, and said in a deep voice: "Since the mother knows, no matter what, the son will not hide it from you." Mother, I met Qionghua. ”

"Sure enough, it's her." Xu Taijun was not surprised at all, nodded twice with a pant, and sneered: "Didn't she be unlucky with her husband's family that day?" Why is it happening again now? What did she do when she ran back to the capital? Looking for your cousin for help? ”

"Mother is wrong, Qionghua is now relying on herself, she has a lot of money, what did she come to me for help? When we met, it wasn't specially arranged by her, but I saw her by chance, and then inquired in many ways to find her, and finally found her, she didn't want to have anything to do with me anymore, she was a son...... It's the son who can't help it. ”

"Does she really not want to have anything to do with you anymore?" Xu Taijun lowered his eyelids and asked indifferently, listening to Xiao Donghai say "yes". She sneered: "That's right, then it has nothing to do with it." You're a cousin, if there's anything you can do to help in the future. You can do your best, and you don't have to think about anything else. ”

"Mother."

Xiao Donghai took a step forward, his eyes were firm, and he said in a deep voice: "More than 20 years ago, I was worried about my family, and I had missed Qionghua, and now I finally met her again...... Mother. The Gao family has fallen very completely, and it has nothing to do with her, this time. I don't want to miss it anymore. ”

"And what do you want to do?" Xu Taijun raised his head suddenly, looking at his son with a compelling gaze.

"I will marry her." Xiao Donghai did not flinch under his mother's sharp gaze, and said in a deep voice: "Mother, my son has been doing so many years. There has been no continuation. What you should know if others don't know why......"

"No." Xu Taijun shouted, interrupted Xiao Donghai's words, gasped and said categorically: "As long as my wife is still alive, you are not allowed to marry her back as a stepmother, if you want to marry her, you can take a rope to strangle me to death, you don't even have to guard filial piety." You can marry her back. ”

"Mother."

Xiao Donghai knelt down with a "plop" and said with tears: "You know that your son only has Qionghua in his heart. Why can't you be considerate of your son? Are you letting your son not be with the woman he loves until he dies? Did you let me go to the Nine Springs, and I couldn't even look at them? Why is a mother so cruel to her son? Am I not your flesh and blood? So you don't care about my joys and sorrows? ”

"It's not that I don't understand people." When Xu Taijun heard Xiao Donghai's words, he couldn't help but sigh, and said in a trembling voice: "Son, you don't understand the behavior of the Fang family, your father and I just couldn't get used to their family's behavior that day, so we obstructed it in every possible way, how about it?" Sure enough, they went up the high branches. Your cousin is exquisite, and she is not a fuel-efficient lamp, she married the Gao family that day, and then the Gao family fell, she was able to escape, and now she is still full of money, how do you say she did it? But you met her by such a coincidence, but you didn't know that she arranged it? You want to marry her back, but if she has a hatred for you and blames you for not marrying her, if you marry her, it will be a wolf into the house. ”

Xu Taijun's words are very sincere, she is also a woman, and she also knows a little about the other party's family, so she has these worries. However, where can Xiao Donghai listen to these now, but thinks that it is just a delusion under his mother's worry and stubbornness, because he said in a deep voice: "Never, if Qionghua hates me, she will never be like this, mother, please trust your son's judgment." If she has any plans, it is impossible, what can she plan for us? She is not short of money, if you talk about power, Abei's Zhenbei Hou is not hereditary, even if she gives birth to a son for me, it is impossible to harm Jiangbei because of things like attacking the lord. Mother, think about it, she has no plans, how can she harm us? What's more, these days, I go to see her, but she ...... Desperately avoiding me. ”

"This is called wanting to capture the old people, but you are still a general, and you don't even know this?" Xu Taijun was so angry that he gasped, but when he saw Xiao Donghai, he smiled miserably: "If you want to capture it, you want to capture it, it can only mean that she still wants to return to me." The son refused to fail his parents before, so he could only bear Qionghua; Now that Anan and Abei have grown up, Abei is even more blue than blue, and her mother has the rest of her life to rely on, if she can't agree with Qionghua, let her son go, this time, I say everything I have to be with her. ”

"You...... You idiot. Xu Taijun was full of anger, but looking at her son's resolute face, she couldn't say a word, knowing that her son was not a temptation this time, he really made a decision: if he didn't accept Fang Qionghua, then he had to lose him.

"Let the mother fulfill her son." Xiao Donghai slammed his head on the ground, as long as there was a slight possibility, he would do his best to fight for it, in all fairness, he didn't want his mother and lover to choose only one.

Xu Taijun didn't say anything in the end, just waved his hand, so Xiao Donghai had to leave gloomily. When he left, Aunt Xiang appeared from behind the screen, came to Xu Taijun and sat down and said, "Old lady, why do you want to persecute the master like this? The concubine saw that he was already iron-hearted, so the old lady should obey him. ”

"I would like to object, but do you think opposition is useful? I even gave up this old life, and I didn't care about the one who had no conscience, and now he is dizzy and crazy. Xu Taijun's body is still trembling when he is angry, and now he only hates himself for being too well maintained on weekdays, and he can't be angry at this time.

"The old lady is right, this matter has been installed in the master's heart for more than 20 years, and it has become his inner demon." Aunt Xiang also sighed and said softly: "The old lady knows the identity of the concubine, to be honest, how can the concubine be willing to do this?" Miss and the lord became husband and wife, and gave birth to children for the lord, but for so many years, the lord only respects the lady, without the slightest love and like, these concubines all know, and they are really sad for the miss, but they are also helpless, and they say in their hearts, the lord is also too affectionate. Sometimes the concubine is also thinking, the young lady has a kind temperament and loves the lord deeply, if she knows that the lord can be with the woman she loves now, and the second half of her life will be happy and complete, she should also be happy. ”

Aunt Xiang was already in tears as she spoke. Xu Taijun also cried, shook his head and said, "It's not that I'm not close to people, but that Fang family...... Alas! The people in their family almost don't have a good thing, and for many generations, they are all snobs who are bound to repay their anger...... That's it, what's the use of me talking about this now? Look, that woman comes in, and there is no more peace in our house. ”

Aunt Xiang hurriedly wiped away Xu Taijun's tears with a handkerchief, and said with a reluctant smile: "Old lady, don't talk to death, maybe Miss Fang is a good woman?" There are also such things as good bamboo shoots. What's more, as the master said, our family has nothing to plot, if she wants to harm us, why bother? Is our family so harmful? If she is not careful, she will pay for it herself, since she has made such a big family business by herself, can't she even see this stake? ”

Aunt Xiang's words are very reasonable, even Xu Taijun can't refute it, but the old lady decided in her heart that Fang Qionghua is not a good person, and even Xiao Donghai can't change her opinion, what can Aunt Xiang do? Yin shook his head and said, "Alas! You think like this, when the time comes, you will suffer a big loss, see who to cry with, anyway, I will leave it here, take precautions early, otherwise you may not even know how to die in the future. ”

Aunt Xiang nodded solemnly, but there was a bit of a soul in her heart, and secretly said Is there such a terrible thing the old lady said? Isn't that just a woman? What's more, I have suffered hardships, and now I can finally be with my beloved, don't you want to live a good life, but you want to harm others? I've never heard of it.

September has passed in a blink of an eye, and the weather in early October has just entered winter in the capital, but it has already turned into ice in Liaodong.

"Grandma, the second master is back and beat a big bear."

Chunyu's excited voice sounded outside the door, Gu Qiluo put down the letter in his hand, sighed and stood up, Xinghua hurriedly put a mink cloak on her, and saw that her face was a little solemn, so she asked in a low voice, "What did my aunt say in the letter?" Why is grandma's face a little unsightly? ”

"It's nothing, it's just that I didn't expect this to happen after we left Beijing." Gu Qiluo didn't say much, and went straight to the door, only to see Xiao Jiangbei striding in, and when he saw her, he smiled and said: "Qiluo, look at the bear I picked up today, it's so fat and strong, wait for me to make beeswax bear paws for you to eat." ”

Gu Qi Luoqi said: "The bear you picked up? What do you mean? ”

Xiao Jiangbei said: "This time into the forest, did not hit anything, only a few deer and hares pheasants, I was afraid that if I went deeper, I would get lost, so I had to go back the same way, but unexpectedly I saw a bear dead on the side of the road, seeing the bloodstains when he was dead not long ago, he should have fallen into the trap, but he did not die thoroughly, and he escaped with his last strength after being caught, but died on the road." By the way, just in front of it, there is a bear hole, I found two bear cubs from it, let's raise them first, and then slaughter them after the New Year, others eat roast suckling pig, let's eat roast suckling bear.
