Chapter 42

King Jin has no concubine, and the mother family is also obscure, everyone seems to have forgotten about it, even if Ah Bao has doubts in his heart, now that he has just married, it is not good for people to inquire about anything. Therefore, there is no serious mother-in-law on the top, and the prince who has already left the palace to build a mansion, he only needs to enter the palace on the fifteenth day of the first month to greet the queen, this day is not too good.

Ah Bao is now in the Jin Palace, and she is the housewife, and she is much freer than when she was a girl.

The above is a momentary feeling when Po woke up in the morning, touching the empty place next to him, and silently thinking that it would be good if there was no one shaking above her head. But be content, don't be too greedy.

After washing and dressing, Xiao Lingshu came back from morning practice and had breakfast with her.

Except for the first day of the wedding, Xiao Lingshu got up to go to morning exercise before she woke up, complaining that the muscles were so tight, and every time she picked his arm muscles, she almost broke her nails. Ah Bao carefully glanced at his figure, the body under the brocade robe was slender and strong, and the dark jade-colored belt stretched out the slender waist, remembering the slender and powerful body at night, although it was a little rude...... Almost had a nosebleed.

He suddenly looked up at her, his expression quiet, as if there was something strange.

Ah Bao hurriedly lowered his head and ate the buns seriously, not daring to think nonsense.

After the two finished eating, Steward Liu came over with a few little eunuchs with gifts, which were gifts for the elders brought back to her parents' house by Bao Guining.

"Lord and Princess, the carriage is ready to set off at any time." Steward Liu said with a smile.

Ah Bao wiped the corners of his lips with a handkerchief, pursed his lips and smiled: "It's hard to be a housekeeper." ”

Taking advantage of the fact that the morning sun was not strong, the two set off. Ah Bao was naturally sitting in the carriage, Xiao Lingshu was riding a horse outside, and ten palace guards followed, looking quite imposing.

The princess of Jin returned to the door in three dynasties, and the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion attached great importance to it, and early in the morning, the Weiyuan Marquis and his wife led a group of people to wait outside the door.

When the carriage arrived at the gate, Wei Yuanhou respectfully brought his family over to say goodbye.

Xiao Lingshu dismounted first, then turned around and opened the car door, and personally helped Ah Bao get out of the carriage. Naturally, this thoughtful move made the eyes of the people in the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion widen out of their sockets, and they looked very surprised. Perhaps in their imagination, such a man who is not close to people and women will definitely not know what to pity and cherish, and even a man who lacks human affection and sophistication, it is good not to embarrass his new wife, and it is better to expect this man to be considerate than to expect the sow to go up the tree.

These days, several masters of the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion are also up and down in their hearts, they know the virtue of King Jin, they are worried that he will not treat Ah Bao well, and they are even more worried that if Li Jiyao knows that they have deceived him, they don't know how to make a fuss. I plan to take a look at the situation when I return to the door three times, and if the situation is not good, uh...... Continue to deceive Li Jiyao, and stabilize the person first.

Now, though, it seems surprisingly good.

Marquis Wei Yuan quickly restrained his emotions, and brought his family over to greet the King of Jin and his wife, and after the courtesy of the monarch and ministers, Ah Bao gave them a family salute.

After saluting each other, in the respect of the Marquis of Weiyuan Mansion and others, Ah Bao and Xiao Lingshu walked into the Marquis of Weiyuan's Mansion.

When he entered the second gate, he saw the old lady with several granddaughters to greet him, Ah Bao hurriedly walked over, supported the old lady, and said: "How can you bother your grandmother to come to greet her, but it seems that the granddaughter is not filial." ”

Ah Bao said very sincerely, and he did not treat his elders slowly because he became a princess. The old lady felt a little comfortable in her heart, raised her eyes to look at the man next to her, and saw that he had a cold and indifferent look, and knew that she couldn't expect him to say something human. After the old lady knew that her grandson-in-law was him, she had already extinguished her reliance on the old and betrayed the old in front of him, so she regarded her granddaughter as having been taken away by a dog, and did not expect her grandson-in-law to be filial.

After a while, everyone arrived at the main hall, Ah Bao and Xiao Lingshu sat on the main seat, the second seat was the old lady, and the others sat according to their generational status. A Baofu is a noble wife, looking at the faces below, his mood is slightly complicated. Marrying a daughter is spilling water, and the daughter and son-in-law go back to their parents' house, which is a delicate guest, plus the son-in-law's status is noble, and the whole family has to offer.

After the maid served the refreshments, the family should have chatted, but Xiao Lingshu is not a talker, he doesn't speak, and others don't dare to talk casually, so he can't stare at it again.

The old lady frowned slightly, obviously thinking that before King Jin spoke, her granddaughter spoke, which seemed too unruly, and the rest of the aunts were also a little surprised, not to mention the sisters in the family. Except for the young and ignorant, everyone feels very inappropriate at this time.

"Everything is fine, thank you for your concern." The old lady nodded in response, glanced at King Jin, and saw that there was no displeasure on his face, so she put her mind at ease.

After chatting for a while, the old lady went back to Rong'an Hall, Wei Yuanhou asked his niece and son-in-law to talk in the study, looking at the niece-in-law's ruthless face, his heart was full of faces, and he couldn't wait to grab Ah Bao's father and beat him violently, obviously this son-in-law was his, but let him face it, he should be glad that his son-in-law is a normal person?

At this time, if Bao's mother is there, it should be the mother who asks her daughter about her life after marrying into her husband's family, and the harmony of the couple's nightlife. Ah Bao Niang was not there, so naturally a few elders did it for her, but in the end, it was a layer apart, and it was not easy to ask anything, so the ladies sat together and chatted about some family life.

Now Bao's identity is not ordinary, everyone speaks a little more politely, for fear of saying the wrong thing, especially those sisters who used to talk and laugh with them in a good way, have become princesses, Li Mingyi and Li Mingfeng, the two girls are just a little lost, and the other Ming are envious and sour, Li Mingyue looked at it in a daze, lowered her head, and was unspeakably uncomfortable.

As soon as he sat down, Ah Bao suddenly noticed a new face among the sisters, and couldn't help asking, "Who is this sister, and what is the face?" ”

Mrs. Weiyuanhou looked over and saw that Ah Bao was asking about the girl who was sitting with Li Mingyi and Li Mingfeng, so she smiled and said, "I can't complain that you don't know each other, you haven't seen each other for many years." This is your eldest aunt's cousin, surnamed Zhao and named Ziqing. After introducing the two, he said: "After your eldest aunt got married, she went to work with your eldest uncle, and it has been more than 20 years, but she finally came back." I was busy with your family affairs before, and the whole house was busy, and when your eldest aunt came back, I was afraid of disturbing it, and the Zhao family was also busy settling down, so I sent someone to send gifts. Yesterday, the purple girl came to the house to play, and the old lady left her to play in the house for a few days before going back. ”

Zhao Ziqing is a delicate and beautiful fifteen-year-old girl, she is a favored one at home, she has a confident and bright appearance, the jewelry and clothes on her body are quite exquisite, and she is not shy when she sees Ah Bao, she bows generously and calls "fifth cousin" crisply.

Ah Bao accepted her salute with a smile, and took off a jade flower on his head as a greeting gift. The eldest aunt Li Xiuyuan is the daughter of the old lady, and she is loved by the old lady. Now that her daughter is back, she has brought back her grandchildren and granddaughters, and the old lady loves them very much, so she takes her grandson and granddaughter to live at home for a few days.

Ah Bao suddenly realized that the strange man he saw today who was standing with several cousins was Zhao Yiyang, the son of his eldest aunt, who looked handsome and beautiful, but ...... I always feel that his eyes are too presumptuous, and there is an extra sense of frivolity on his body, which is not stable enough.

The brothers and sisters of the Zhao family have not yet agreed to marry, and it just so happened that Uncle Zhao returned to Beijing to take office, according to Li Xiuyuan's meaning, he naturally wanted to find a partner for a pair of children in Beijing, which was better than those small families in the local area.

After the woman became a parent, many topics could be discussed, and after sending away the girls who had not left the pavilion, Mrs. Weiyuan Hou and others chatted with Bao, and picked some things about the eldest aunt's family to chat so that Bao could understand, and talked about the future family affairs of the Zhao family brothers and sisters, and revealed the meaning of the eldest aunt.

Ah Bao listened quietly while sipping melon seeds, pondering in his heart, and he didn't know whether it was the eldest aunt's intention to take the Zhao family brothers and sisters to live in the mansion, or the grandmother's meaning, if it was to rely on the Weiyuan Hou Mansion, I believe that there would be many families who wanted to marry the Zhao family, and the two could also have a good relationship.

"It's dry, why do you still eat so many fried seeds, be careful of getting hot!" The second aunt couldn't help but say angrily.

Ah Bao has a bad habit, eating melon seeds and peanuts when watching the play and chatting, what a leisurely life, but it's a pity that the second lady has taken care of her for a while, and she knows that she will start to have a bitter summer as soon as she arrives in the summer, and she eats too many things on fire, and she is the one who suffers the most, so she can't help but nag.

Ah Bao sneered, and said a little aggrievedly: "Zhilu said, second aunt, don't be angry, just eat a little, Mother Hua has boiled me fire tea to drink in the past few days." ”

"Yes, this is my wife's nagging." As soon as the second lady saw her pretending to be aggrieved, she remembered that she was obedient in front of her like a good baby when she was a child, and her heart couldn't help but soften, how could she still have the previous restraint.

The remaining ladies saw that the two of them were laughing as usual, Mrs. Weiyuanhou and Mrs. Fifth also smiled, only the third lady was a little sour in her heart, and secretly regretted how she didn't care more about Ah Bao before, if she knew that this girl's father would be so promising, and she herself would have such a blessing, where would the second lady envelop people?

At noon, everyone gathered in the main hall for dinner, set up two tables, and separated the male and female seats with screens.

Ah Bao sat in the second seat this time, giving up the chief to the old lady, and Zhao Ziqing sat on the other side of the old lady. Seeing that the old lady loves Zhao Ziqing so much, and even her favorite granddaughter Li Mingyi leaned back, Ah Bao couldn't help but think, isn't it that the old people are more partial to their granddaughters? Thinking of Mrs. Tian, Ah Bao planned to go to Taifu's Mansion to see his grandmother in a few days.

On the side of the female dependents, because Ah Bao is a kind person, and Zhao Ziqing is laughing and cute, the atmosphere is harmonious. In contrast, the men's seat can be described as weird.

Xiao Lingshu naturally sat on the chief, followed by the Marquis of Weiyuan and the second master, plus the older children and grandchildren of the Marquis of Weiyuan's mansion, who also sat at a table. Among them, the young master Zhao Yiyang sat next to his second cousin Li Jingmin, and tried his best to show his talent in front of Xiao Lingshu several times.

Several masters of the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion were about to kneel for this nephew, and those cousins also lowered their heads and wanted to deny him, all doubting whether he would look at people's faces, didn't he see that King Jin was not a good master, and the most important thing to do at this time was to shut up and eat silently? What else is there to behave, what is there to show in front of this person? No matter how good you behave, he won't ignore you!

In fact, Zhao Yiyang really doesn't know the virtue of the master in front of him, he just returned to Beijing with his parents, and he has no understanding of the personnel in the capital, and he only heard that one of his cousins became the prince's side concubine, and a cousin was married to the king of Jin and became a tall princess, and the family is considered a relative of the emperor, so that he is quite satisfied with such a decent relative, but he did not carefully inquire about what kind of person the prince married by his cousin.

Zhao Yiyang is weak this year, his appearance is quite handsome and weekly, in line with the popular beauty, he has grown a smart appearance since he was a child, and he is also quite famous in the local area, and he is often praised by Mr. when he is studying in the academy. However, who knows that the longer he grows, the more crippled he becomes, in addition to getting the name of a showman, there is no progress now, and the biggest shortcoming is that he is a self-proclaimed literati, there are countless beautiful maids in the room, and he is quite confident and arrogant in his talent. When he heard that he was married to King Jin's cousin Guining today, he planned to behave well in front of King Jin, if he was appreciated by King Jin, it would be good for his future career, and it would also save his father from often saying that he was not doing his job properly and was not in shape.

The men of the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion looked at King Jin embarrassedly, and they couldn't wait to take a rag to block Zhao Yiyang's mouth, and at the same time, they were also a little puzzled, when they saw this nephew when they were children, they were obviously smart and clever, and they were very likable, how did they grow up to be so ignorant of people's eyes?

Zhao Yiyang expressed his knowledge and talent in a big talk, and after seeing that the person concerned was silent for a long time, his face finally became a little embarrassed, and he looked at several uncles at a loss, who knew that his previous amiable uncles did not see his face, and bowed their heads very seriously to eat vegetables.

In fact, King Jin didn't want to speak, and Wei Yuanhou and the others were helpless, they had spent a difficult half a day in the study before, and this master didn't say a few words, which made them have a clear understanding of him, unless necessary, I want him to open his mouth, and I don't know if Lu Dao really doesn't like to talk like this, or he is self-aware, and he knows that he sometimes speaks too hard and unpleasant, so he rarely opens his mouth.

As a last resort, Zhao Yiyang could only bite the bullet and start playing the emotional card: "...... Lord, although we only met with my fifth cousin when we were children, my sister loves my fifth cousin very much, and I also treat my fifth cousin as my own sister, and it is a great blessing for my fifth cousin to marry you, and the prince is also a cousin-in-law......"

Wei Yuanhou and the others really wanted to pretend to be dead directly, Zhao Yiyang was really daring, and called his cousin-in-law, is it no eyes or no eyes......

Zhao Yiyang suddenly saw King Jin looking at him, his heart jumped slightly, and then he was overjoyed, thinking that his words had moved him, and when he was about to continue, he suddenly heard him say coldly: "Noisy, shut up!" ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Zhao Yiyang's face was hot, and he still wanted to save face, so he shut his mouth in disdain.

The Marquis of Weiyuan and the others buried their heads even more bitterly, and they didn't even do the work that should persuade them to drink at this time, they really didn't have the courage to persuade this lord to drink.

Who knows, Xiao Lingshu seemed to think of something, asked someone to bring the wine over, and after the next person poured the wine for everyone, he raised the wine glass and saluted a few elders, ignoring the favored appearance of Wei Yuanhou and others, looked at Zhao Yiyang, and said, "Go on!" ”

Zhao Yiyang: "Ga?!" Waiting for those cold eyes to pierce straight to him, he shuddered, and hurriedly said, "What do you continue to say?" I don't know what the prince wants to hear...... Ah, I know the way, just said that the cousins went back to their hometown Youyang to visit relatives, my sister and I were also fortunate to meet the cousins, the fifth cousin was only five years old at the time, she looked like a peach shou bun, well-behaved and clever, very likable, as soon as I saw it, I felt that she was more like a sister than my sister, my mother also said that the fifth cousin was a good baby, and I complained that the fourth uncle gave her a nickname called A Bao, but it was not a treasure, so that she could cultivate to such a blessing to marry the prince......"

Oh my God, let them die!

β€”β€”This is the voice of all the men in the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion!

For this reason, Zhao Yiyang is a very unreliable commodity in the hearts of Weiyuanhou and others, and he is used to slapping whiskers and horses, and secretly regrets letting him come here to live. Even if it is a nephew, it will definitely be listed as a refusal to come and go in the future, so as not to bring his own children and grandchildren.

Fortunately, Xiao Lingshu did not show any signs of anger from beginning to end, but he was a little relieved.

The meal ended with difficulty, and the two sat in the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion for a while, and finally said goodbye and left.

Wei Yuanhou led the whole family to send each other off, during which he naturally made people look at his nephew, saving him from going to King Jin to provoke people again, and it was not until they got into the carriage that they were relieved.

After sending people away, Wei Yuanhou took the lead in going back, and when he saw his nephew talking to Li Jingmin, he couldn't help but have a headache again, and decided to find an excuse tomorrow to send Zhao Yiyang back to Zhao's house, and by the way, let his brother-in-law teach his nephew a good life, so that he didn't have a good line, how to support the Zhao family in the future?

Of course, what Wei Yuanhou didn't expect was that he hadn't sent anyone back yet, and the next morning, his sister went back to the house to cry, and even the mother and son lived directly in the house.

******

On the other side, Ah Bao looked at the man sitting in the carriage with her, thought for a while, and asked, "Did the prince drink before?" ”

Xiao Lingshu shook his head.

If he hadn't been drinking, what would he do to follow her back to the house in a carriage? It's weird!

Xiao Ling looked at her fixedly, and when Ah Bao was horrified, he suddenly leaned into her ear and said softly: "Ah Bao! ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Ah Bao smiled reluctantly and said, "This is the nickname that my father gave to his concubine, how did the prince know about it?" ”

This nickname, except for a few close elders and sisters, others don't call it that, most of them will directly call Ming Jin or Jin girl or something, and it feels weird to hear him call it like this at this time.

"I think you're a cousin like a sister." He rarely spoke.

"Are they the two cousins of my uncle's family?" Ah Bao said clearly, the second cousin doesn't need to say that the eldest cousin is very good to her.

"It's not!"

Ah Bao was a little embarrassed, and when he was about to ask again, suddenly the carriage shook violently, and Ah Bao threw himself forward, and was soon caught by a pair of arms, and he did not unluckily hit the wall of the car, which was gratifying, but the whole face hit the man's chest, and it hurt.

"Who's attacking?"

Xi Yuan's shouts sounded outside, and he heard footsteps, sounding like he was chasing the attacker.
