The year of Jinling City passed in this way both cold and lively. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Because the princess in the palace of Anwang is pregnant and not suitable for work, and an aunt has a miscarriage, this year's banquet in the palace was only held on the fifth and sixth days of the first month, and it was only a formality, and they were all dispersed before the time of application.

The Chengguo Mansion was very calm because of a housework in the three major lands of the junior high school, and there was no New Year's banquet after that.

But the people in Jinling City were not idle, visiting relatives and friends during the Chinese New Year, and discussing the private affairs of these two powerful families after tea and dinner.

After the Lantern Festival, Pei Minzhong began to get busy again, going back and forth between the Guogong Mansion and the camp outside the city every day.

This night, he sent someone to Xuanhui to say that he would come back later and that he didn't have to wait for dinner. When he got home, it was past Haizheng, and Xuan Hui was leaning on the bedside reading a book.

"I told you not to wait for me, why are you staying up so late?" Pei Minzhong changed his clothes and said strangely.

When Xuanhui saw him coming back, he hurriedly ordered the maid to send supper in, and said with a smile: "In the past few days, you will leave after five watches, and you will not return until midnight, if I don't wait for you, I'm afraid I won't even be able to say a word." ”

Pei Minzhong kissed her forehead and asked, "How are Mrs. Tai and Mother better these two days?" ”

At this time, the maid brought wild quail porridge and side dishes in, Xuanhui got out of bed in his clothes, and sat at the tea table with Pei Minzhong to talk.

"At noon today, Xuan and I had dinner with my mother at night, and my mother cried again...... He also repeatedly told me that when I have a child in the future, I must not leave anyone around me......"

When Pei Minzhong heard this, he couldn't help sighing: "At the beginning, the family didn't have much money, the whole family was just a maid and a small servant, and the eldest brother and I were both wild and grown. Who would have thought that such a decent person would have such a pickled thing at home! ”

He sneered, and then said: "Mother is a weak-hearted person, Rao slowly told her later, she also cried for the past twenty days. I can't imagine what it would be like if she suddenly heard it on the third day of junior high school......"

Xuanhui nodded, sandwiched two pieces of dried bamboo shoots for him and put them in the porridge, and said: "Now I go to Mrs. Tai's side every day to ask for peace, she told me yesterday that she will move out of the main house when she comes out of the New Year, and she will go to live in the Buddhist hall in the garden, and she didn't say much." ”

After this ordeal, Mrs. Pei has aged a lot, and her domineering attitude in the past has turned into indifference, which makes Xuan Hui feel a little admiration and regret.

No matter how strong the mind is, once he finds that his sixteen years of affection and love have been wrongly paid to others, and his husband and son have long been extinct, I am afraid it will be difficult to accept it for a while, let alone an old man.

And Mrs. Pei not only did not fall ill or go crazy, but quietly accepted all this. But the more she is like this, the more Xuanhui feels that there is unfathomable sadness hidden in her heart.

In the past ten days, Mrs. Tai has stayed at home and chanted sutras and worshiped the Buddha every day. When Xuanhui asked for peace several times, he found Mrs. Tai kneeling on the ground in the west room of the main room and crying silently, and there was a sword left by the grandfather of the old country hanging on the wall.

"By the way, the prince told me today, so that you can go back and see the princess when you have time. They've been ...... a bit lately There is some dissonance. ”

Xuanhui said angrily: "What's wrong with him? Do you suspect that your sister-in-law is mistreating his heart again? I knew that this Li Ruolan was so capable of stirring up trouble, and I tried my best to make the third brother angry, but I couldn't let her enter the palace! ”

Pei Minzhong smiled helplessly: "The prince didn't say it in detail, don't preconceive that it's the prince." Besides, where is there a reason for your sister to take care of the affairs in her brother's room, you can go over and ask clearly, persuade and persuade the princess, and it will be considered to be doing your duty. ”

Xuanhui rolled his eyes and said: "He is the prince of the scenery outside, and he is the head of the family in the palace, how can his sister-in-law He De give him anger!" ”

Pei Minzhong put down his chopsticks, rinsed his mouth, hugged her and smiled: "Okay, okay, don't talk about them." Life is all lived by themselves, let's their hearts and minds! ”

Xuan Hui smiled apologetically, and felt that his reaction was a little intense. After she accompanied Pei Minzhong to the clean room to wash, the two went to bed to rest and didn't say anything overnight.

On the second day, Xuanhui instructed the kitchen to make some pastries, and specially steamed a basket of white-faced rabbits filled with red bean paste filling, packed them in food boxes, and took people to the palace.

Yang Yunshu is now six months pregnant, but her waist is slender, and her belly is only slightly bulging.

Xuanhui confessed the food and sent it to the kitchen, and then said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, it's quiet here today. ”

Yang Yunshu smiled and said, "After the Lantern Festival, Mao'er began to study with Mr. again, and when he was not there, I was very quiet here." ”

If Xuan Hui doesn't mention the defeat, think about it yesterday Liang Zan asked Pei Minzhong to speak, it can be seen that the relationship between the two is really stiff.

“…… Those two didn't serve with you either? Aunt Lan...... Out of confinement, right? Xuanhui asked cautiously.

Yang Yunshu smiled faintly: "The confinement has long passed, but I told her to recuperate for a longer time, and I will not send her to serve here." As for the side concubines...... I don't know what to say......"

She turned around and ordered Yucao to take out all the people who were waiting in the house, and then said: "Before, I only suspected that Li Ruolan's miscarriage was done by her, but I checked and checked, and only found out that she bought a rough little girl in Lin Huage who was sprinkling and sweeping, that is, asking some things in Li Ruolan's yard." Even if she wanted to make a ghost, that girl couldn't even enter the main room of Lin Hua Pavilion, and it was really difficult to do anything about it. ”

"That ......" Xuanhui frowned tightly, it wasn't Wang Miaoyan, who else could it be?

Yang Yunshu sneered: "The prince blames me for not taking care of Li Ruolan's pregnancy, but thanks to me hiding that day, otherwise how can I get rid of it now?" ”

"Third brother...... Still checking? Xuanhui asked with difficulty.

"After changing a few doctors, they all said that it was a cold thing that invaded the body. What's more, it is said that it is beaten so quickly, but I am afraid that it is an abortion pill. Yang Yunshu looked ahead blankly, and said faintly: "The prince takes Li Ruolan to heart like this, how can he be willing to give up?" But after all these days, there was no clue at all, and there was a fire in his heart. ”

Xuanhui sighed and asked, "Then the third brother and you, but they quarreled again?" ”

Yang Yunshu shook his head and said, "That's not true. After all, he still cares that I am pregnant, and he often takes care of me, but ......" she said with a look of amazement on her face, "After all, I am not a clay man, I always have a three-point temperament, and he blames me this time for being wrong!" No matter how much I don't like Li Ruolan, she is always the granddaughter of a scholarly family and a pavilion elder, how can I do things that harm the concubine and hurt the husband and the heir? ”

When she said the excitement, she grabbed the handkerchief in her hand with both hands, and then let it go again, her face returned to calm, and there was even a trace of indifference: "The prince resents me and doubts me, and he doesn't remember the feelings of the day, and how can I still pour out my heart and lungs to him?" There are not a few husbands and wives in the world who respect each other like ice. ”
