Chapter 54

When the carriage curtain was lowered, Ah Bao could still see the calm faces of King Xian and his wife, as well as Princess Ning's eyes that were almost about to breathe fire, and his mood was slightly complicated - well, it should be honestly said that this mood is like eating shaved ice in the hot summer, which is really refreshing.

Turning her head, she looked at the man who had climbed into the carriage like her to enjoy the cold air in the carβ€”there was an ice basin in the cornerβ€”with a calm and calm appearance, probably not caring about what he had just said. For Xiao Lingshu to speak, Ah Bao was unexpected, and after the accident, he couldn't help but give him countless likes. She is not a clay person, and she will be angry when she is provoked several times, but there are some things she can't say, so as not to really respond to Princess Ning's language trap, and Xiao Lingshu, as her husband, said it, which is a kind of maintenance for her.

Ah Bao smiled and said: "Lord Wang, the grapes in the Zhuangzi of Beiming Mountain are about to ripen, and then the concubine will make wine for you, the sweet and sour will be delicious." There was some flattery in his tone.

Xiao Lingshu responded, and then looked down at her and thought he was rubbing over little by little inattention, and after looking at it for a while, he thought she was rubbing too slowly, so he simply stretched out his arms and carried her over, put her beside him, and then held her dog paw.

Po's face was slightly hot, but he still cheekily showed him what he thought was the most beautiful smile - he had also practiced in the mirror for a long time, intending to show him his beautiful side. And although the expression on Xiao Lingshu's face did not change, Ah Bao still felt his relaxation from that aura, and boldly put his body next to his shoulder.

Hey, sitting on my back for a morning, I have to improve my spirit to deal with a bunch of women with ulterior motives, and I'm quite tired, so it's good to lean on it.

So, in the small carriage, a slightly sweet smell permeated, and both of them were very satisfied.

Ah Bao was smiling when he returned to the house, and he was also smiling at lunch, until the next person came to report that Mrs. Weiyuan Hou and Mrs. Zhao had come to visit, so she suppressed her smile and asked her to take them to the side hall to drink tea first, and she would go over later.

Because of this unexpected "Mrs. Zhao", Ah Bao's pink bubbles were finally pressed, and after being reminded by the maid, she realized that this "Mrs. Zhao" was her aunt who had just returned to Beijing with her family. Ah Bao said strangely: "Didn't you say yesterday that the eldest aunt came, why did this eldest aunt also come?" ”

Yesterday, I received a post from Weiyuan Mansion, but I didn't say that the eldest aunt Li Xiuyuan also came, and Ah Bao intuitively felt that this eldest aunt would not go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing. In her memory, she saw this eldest aunt once when she returned to her hometown for the New Year, what a ...... It's hard to describe people in words, anyway, the vision is quite high, at that time she was a little girl who didn't have that amount into her eyes, and even the meeting gift was the thinnest of the sisters, it is estimated that her father ran to the border at that time was just a little-known soldier, and the eldest aunt also thought that her mother had died early in her life, and her father was not in tune, and there was no big deal, so there was no need to look at it with the right eyes.

The maid naturally didn't know, Ah Bao went back to change the clothes of the guest, and took the maid to the side hall.

*****

In the side hall, after the maids of the Jin Palace's mansion served refreshments, they quietly retreated to the side and stood.

Li Xiuyuan held the blue and white tea cup, gently scraped the tea leaves in the cup with the lid, took a sip gently, and showed a disapproving look on her face, although her niece was blessed, but no one knew that she married the most unfavored prince, even the scenery she saw along the way after entering the Jin Palace, it was decent, and it was not as exquisite as the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion, and even this tea was not a tribute, and she couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

Mrs. Weiyuan Hou lowered her head to drink tea, and out of the corner of her eye, she saw the flash of expression on the face of her sister-in-law Li Xiuyuan, shook her head in her heart, and then sighed again, I just hope that this sister-in-law will not put the score of the elders, Ah Bao looks gentle and soft, and seems to be very easy to handle, in fact, there is an idea, now that she has become a princess, even if it is them elders, she has to respect her a little.

Just thinking about it, I saw a woman wearing a light yellow gauze skirt and a hairpin with a pearl tassel hairpin walking in surrounded by the maid and the maid.

Mrs. Weiyuan Hou and Li Xiuyuan both got up to greet them, although they are elders, they are different from each other, the princess's grade is higher than theirs, Li Xiuyuan is unwilling, and she has to do enough.

Ah Bao hurriedly stepped forward to support Mrs. Weiyuanhou, turned his head to Li Xiuyuan and said, "The eldest aunt and eldest aunt don't need to be polite. ”

Li Xiuyuan smiled reluctantly, crossed the hurdle in her heart, and found that although it was a little difficult to face this niece who had never paid attention, it was easier to behave naturally.

Mrs. Weiyuan Hou secretly looked at Ah Bao, and found that in just a few months, this niece no longer seemed to be like a little girl who was once so gentle that anyone could get along with her, she added some of the majesty of the princess, and her smiling face was a little less soft, and she was gradually transforming. Although he married an unfavored prince, he was also a princess and could not be ignored.

After greeting each other, Ah Bao said: "I haven't seen my aunt and aunt for a long time, how are the sisters in the family?" The last time I saw Ziqing's cousin, she was a clever one, and I liked it very much. ”

Li Xiuyuan smiled: "She just looks okay, but her temper is still a little naughty of a child, and I hope you will talk about her as a sister in the future." Hey, speaking of which, your aunt and I only have Yi Yang Ziqing two debt collectors, in my heart, I don't know how much worry I have for them, how much I hurt my brain. In the past, we were in the field, she couldn't get close to your sisters, she didn't have peers to play, and she had a little delicate temper, but this time I'm back, and I hope that you sisters will have time to walk around more, and also go to her house to play......"

As if he had opened the chatterbox, crackling was a series of words, without drinking some water to replenish the water, although Ah Bao still had a smile on his face, his heart was already stiff, and he secretly glanced at the eldest aunt, and found that she was a little helpless in her eyes, but she looked very holdable on her face, worthy of being the eldest daughter-in-law of the Li family who has been with the old lady for more than 20 years, and her surface kung fu is very good.

Li Xiuyuan talked about a pair of children all over again, and then took advantage of this topic to finally turn to the topic: "You don't know the way, on the day I returned to Beijing, the carriage that the purple girl was riding outside the city accidentally bumped into a few gentlemen with status, and they were really excessive, they didn't look at the road while riding a horse, and they blamed us when they hit it, if it wasn't for the guards, your cousin's carriage almost let them break in." Your uncle and cousin Yi Yang went to Beijing in advance to make arrangements, and there was no man here, so I really didn't know what to do for a while. It happened that the young master of the Changping Eldest Princess's Mansion rode by, and he had to come forward to help, so he stopped, and I really don't know how to thank him. At that time, I got out of the car to see him, and I felt that it was really amazing, and the more I looked at it, the more I felt that this son was a reasonable and noble, worthy of the ...... of the Changping Eldest Princess's Mansion."

Then, there were a bunch of words praising Zhou Yu, and Ah Bao's brows jumped slightly, and he always felt that the eldest aunt looked so much like a mother-in-law looking at her son-in-law, and the more she looked at it, the more satisfied she became?

Next, Li Xiuyuan's request proves that those are not delusions.

Ah Bao felt that his mouth was very dry, and said with some difficulty: "Auntie, do you mean that I will go and intercede with the eldest princess of Changping and say goodbye to my cousin and Zhou Yugongzi?" ”

Saying that, Ah Bao glanced at Mrs. Weiyuanhou, but saw that she looked like an old monk sitting still and never spoke, but Zhilu Dao Mrs. Weiyuanhou knew about this matter in advance, maybe the eldest aunt had to be pulled over to be a lobbyist, but Zhilu Dao This matter is really difficult to speak, so at this time, he directly pretended to be dead, and he didn't open his mouth. But I don't know if there is a grandmother in it. Or did the grandmother also think that this thing was impossible, and she was annoyed by her daughter's crying, so she sent her over to annoy herself?

Li Xiuyuan nodded with a smile, "Yes, you are now the daughter-in-law of the Xiao family, and the eldest princess of Changping can also be regarded as your aunt, although you are not good at talking about this matter as a junior, but I thought about it, there is really no one to choose, so I have to wipe this cheek and find you." Hey, I look at that Zhou Yugongzi, he is a rare beloved, at that time, he also stepped forward to solve the trouble for my purple girl, he is a talented and considerate person, I think he came forward like that at that time, he should also have a good impression of the purple girl......"

Ah Bao and Mrs. Wei Yuanhou looked at her incredulously, and for a moment they doubted the composition of her brain, and they didn't know what she was thinking in her head, and what was even more suspicious was that she was really born by the old lady? How can you be self-righteous like this? Stupid like this?

"Auntie!" Ah Bao interrupted her words and said euphemistically: "I heard the eldest princess of Changping say that she has to think carefully about the family affairs of Zhou Yugongzi, and besides, the seventh princess also belongs to Zhou Yugongzi, it's really not that my niece doesn't want to help you......"

Li Xiuyuan was surprised: "I heard that the seventh princess has a bad temperament, and the eldest princess of Changping is not willing to marry such a daughter-in-law, everyone says so." ”

Who exactly said "......"?

"What kind of character is the eldest princess of Changping, she will never find such a noble daughter-in-law to come back and suffer, so she will never agree to let Zhou Yugongzi marry the princess from the palace, in my opinion, she wants to marry low, my purple girl is very good, not to mention the appearance, just talk about the temperament, innocent, and filial to the elders, with the prince of Zhou is excellent...... Mingjin, you have to help your aunt in this matter, the future of your cousin, cousin, and uncle is pinned on you, and your aunt will depend on you for the rest of her life. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Po saw her aunt's eloquence again, and she was speechless. Moreover, she is a married niece, what does she have to rely on?

"Mingjin, you can help your cousin this time, my aunt will beg you, I am such a daughter as a purple girl, and I naturally hope that she will live well. I don't have to trouble you for anything, as long as you go and talk to the eldest princess of Changping and let her meet the purple girl......"

Seeing that Li Xiuyuan had moved out of the elders' shelf, Ah Bao finally couldn't help but say, "Auntie, please forgive my niece for not being able to do anything!" ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

At this time, it was Li Xiuyuan's turn to silence, and she looked at Ah Bao with her mouth open, as if she didn't want to believe that she would refuse so neatly. In fact, before coming here, she also did her homework, asked the people in the family about the temper of this niece, and knew that Lu Dao was a well-behaved, sensible and filial person, and the elders' requests would never be refused, how could she come to her and be rejected? Don't...... She looks down on her aunt?

Thinking about it this way, Li Xiuyuan's face is not very good, her husband is mediocre, he has been out for more than 20 years, and he still relied on the help of his wife's mother's family to move back to Beijing to find an idle position in the Sixth Department, this life may be like this, and she is also a wife who has no face in Beijing, much worse than when she was a girl, and she does not regret why she was blind and had to marry him in the first place, but those have become facts, she can only find good relatives for her children now, and try to let them live in the rich township for the rest of their lives.

Although she was angry, she didn't want to offend this niece, Li Xiuyuan looked at Mrs. Weiyuan Hou and motioned for her to be a lobbyist.

Mrs. Weiyuanhou looked at Ah Bao with some embarrassment, and said, "Ah Bao, look ...... you?"

Ah Bao sighed in his heart, knowing that this eldest aunt was unwilling to offend the sister-in-law so as not to be rejected by the old lady, thinking of a few sisters, he said: "Auntie, you often chat with all the ladies in Beijing, and you also know that the eldest princess of Changping attaches great importance to Zhou Yugongzi, and even his father can't give instructions to Zhou Yugongzi casually, do you think I am a junior, can I mention it to her?" If she really likes her cousin, it's okay, if she has already made arrangements, mentioning it like this, embarrassing each other, doesn't it make her annoy me? ”

Mrs. Weiyuan Hou nodded obediently, "This is indeed the reason!" ”

Li Xiuyuan had a calm face, looked back and forth at Ah Bao and Mrs. Weiyuan Hou, and then said angrily: "Okay, okay, you are not happy, forget it if you are not happy!" Originally, I wanted to say something evil, but I remembered Bao's identity, so I could only keep a calm face and stand up and leave.

Mrs. Weiyuan Hou was busy getting up, but was stopped by Ah Bao.

Ah Bao called a maid to send Li Xiuyuan, who was leaving in a hurry, and said to Mrs. Weiyuanhou: "Auntie, it's rare for you to come to see me, sit down and talk to me for a while." ”

Mrs. Weiyuanhou had to sit back and sigh to Bao: "Hey, you rejected her like this, she will cry when she goes back to find your grandmother." To be honest, the old lady is sensible, but she also loves your aunt, if your aunt cries a lot in front of her, the old lady will inevitably not be distressed and obey her wishes, and then you ...... "According to the old lady's attitude of not wanting to see Bao, it is estimated that it is better to embarrass her than to embarrass her daughter."

Ah Bao smiled, lowered his head and took a sip of tea, and then after letting the maids in the side hall go out, Fang said: "Auntie, if my grandmother wants to annoy me about my aunt's affairs, let her old man be annoyed, because there are some things I can't do, the prince has been rejected by his father, and we can't make friends with the eldest princess of Changping again, otherwise this day is really unpassable." ”

Mrs. Weiyuan Hou had an understanding expression, but she said in her heart, King Jin seems to have never been the right eye of Emperor Zhengde, it doesn't matter if he is disgusted or not, right?

After finishing the ideological work of Mrs. Weiyuanhou, Ah Bao changed the topic and asked, "How are the preparations for the wedding of the sixth sister?" ”

Mrs. Weiyuanhou seemed a little surprised that she would ask like this, and soon understood something, and said cautiously: "With your second aunt here, there will be no mistakes." ”

Ah Bao looked at Mrs. Weiyuanhou, and said: "Auntie, don't lie to me, I also know about the affairs of the Zhongwu General's Mansion, I want to ask, what do you think?" If everything goes well, I'll also go and add makeup to my sixth sister then. ”

Mrs. Weiyuanhou finally knew that this niece was not a good bluff, and she was sure that this girl had been pretending to be obedient since she was a child.

"Hey, to be honest, Wu Hao's kid really shouldn't get involved in this kind of thing, if the eldest princess knows the truth and gets angry, even our mansion can't please us, after all, we and the Zhongwu General's Mansion are also considered in-laws. But fortunately, the old lady of the Zhongwu General's Mansion is a reasonable person, and our old lady privately told her about the outer room, and after a few days, the outer room and the child were sent out of Beijing, and I heard that it was placed in Zhuangzi. As long as this matter is hidden from the eldest princess, it will be fine! ”

After Ah Bao digested this, he let out a long sigh, feeling that this might be the best solution, and it was absolutely impossible for the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion to quit this family business because of this. However, why is there always a kind of rush that will happen to the East Window incident in the future, and everyone will be unlucky together? There shouldn't be such a crow's mouth, right?

After sending Mrs. Weiyuan Marquis away, Ah Bao went back to the room, and saw that Xiao Lingshu had already returned from the study, and found her coming in and looked up at her.

"Lord Wang." Ah Bao was no longer too afraid of that kind of cold eyes, and he could still rub it over, and said dogleggedly: "If there is anything you want to eat for dinner, the concubine will go and let someone make it in advance." Secretly wondering, should she show her hands so that he could be moved?

Xiao Lingshu supported his cheeks with his hand, and said rarely: "Wine!" ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ I have to go to the village and pick grapes before I get them. Po was tangled.

The man nodded: "After the sun goes down, go to Zhuangzi!" ”

"......" What are you doing in such a hurry?

Seeing that Ah Bao had nothing to do, the anxious man got up directly and carried her to the practice room, and then Ah Bao knew that he was probably too tired to be carried back to the room by him today. Anyway, for Mao, he has been practicing her so harshly recently? Does he want to raise a whip queen? It's really not fun! =Mouth=!

******

After staying in Zhuangzi for a few days, it was soon the Mid-Autumn Festival on August 15.

There is a family banquet in the palace during the Mid-Autumn Festival, and all the royal children must enter the palace and have a banquet, which is considered a day of reunion.

When he left Zhuangzi and returned to Beijing, Ah Bao breathed a sigh of relief, hated himself very much for Mao's previous mouth, and even told Xiao Lingshu to make wine for him to taste this kind of thing, so that Xiao Lingshu dragged her to the grape vine in Zhuangzi every day, and asked her every day with her eyes when the grapes could be picked and made into wine.

These are nothing, but there will be that kind of fat and terrible big insects between the branches and leaves of the grapevines, Ah Bao is scared every time he sees it, and he is so frightened that he jumps directly on Xiao Lingshu on the spot, holding him tightly, and the image of the princess is taken off. And what made her resentful was that every day they went to the grapevine to see the ripening of the grapes, they would encounter big bugs?

So, let's go back to Beijing as soon as possible!

On August 15th, Ah Bao got up early in the morning, and at the same time dragged the man lying on the bed up, seeing him standing in front of the bed with messy hair to look at her, Ah Bao resigned himself to get the clothes on the cage and waited for him to change, and then also took the initiative to change his own clothes, Xiao Lingshu rarely handed her the belt, and Ah Bao took it flattered.

After breakfast, Ah Bao instructed Steward Liu: "Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, let the kitchen add food to the people in the house to have a lively festival, and the moon cakes will be sent on time, let everyone have a holiday." Hey, there is also the doctor who understands the gods, he likes to eat salted egg yolk mooncakes, don't forget to give them to him, and the double skin milk he loves to eat, also send a copy to the past...... "In order to let the doctor who wants to be idle and wild cranes know how good the welfare in their house is, Ah Bao always spares no effort to tempt with food."

"Just give him something to eat!"

A cold and hard voice interrupted Po's words.

"......" After Ah Bao reacted that the master who spoke was a certain prince, he blinked his eyes, looking at the stiff housekeeper Liu and Xi Yuan, his back was inexplicably cold, Xi Yuan and Yan Hui were Mao who suddenly looked at her with such a pitying gaze? She, she, she...... It's really just to detain the Doctor Xie in the mansion to record his hobbies, no dissent!

So you have to believe me, lord!

Ah Bao followed Xiao Lingshu out dejectedly, and brought Yan Hui and Yan Ran two maids, as well as Xi Yuan and a few other guards.

After getting into the carriage, Ah Baoma expressed his loyalty to Xiao Lingshu, "Lord Wang, I heard that the medical skills of the Divine Doctor Xie are very powerful, but the Divine Doctor always wants to leave the palace, which is really not good." The concubine naturally hopes that he can stay for a long time, with him, the people in the house have a small illness and pain, and they don't have to go all the way out of the house to ask for a doctor, how convenient! ”

Po looked at him blankly, so did he understand?

Xiao Lingshu pondered for a moment and said to Bao: "You're right, if you break his leg tomorrow, you can't leave!" ”

...... "Doctor Jie, I'm sorry for you!" >____
