There are many excuses. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

It's inconvenient to be far away, there are a lot of things to do every day, take care of the house, take care of the children, she has children and daughters-in-law, and she is also a grandmother, and she doesn't have the time to walk the streets and alleys all day to see her father-in-law and mother-in-law.

But all of them can't match the thought that occasionally pops up in her heart: she is not Xianggong's biological mother......

So why be so filial, others boast to their faces, and they don't know how to say it behind their backs, isn't it good to keep a distance?

The word concubine is really piercing people's hearts.

But the beginning of Xia is different, she is her daughter, but she is not of the same heart as her. She has been close to her mother-in-law since she was a child, and she is so obedient and sensible in front of her, but her own words are always regarded as a deaf ear.

Zheng felt that this daughter was raised for her mother-in-law, and her father and mother had to go to the back row.

She really doesn't really like her.

She forgot that she was also happy when the child was born, forgot the worry when the child was two or three years old and refused to speak, and forgot the joy when the child called his father and mother for the first time...... I don't know when, she only remembered that she went to the old lady's house that day to say goodbye, but heard the big and small sweet laughter.

It's not my own grandmother......

She went back to tell her daughter that she should not be so stupid and listen to everyone's words, probably from that time, she slowly and a little sluggishly realized that her daughter seemed to be getting farther and farther away from herself, she couldn't see through her gaze, she couldn't guess her thoughts, and always felt that her smile was a little mocking and disdainful.

Gradually, they became estranged.

"Mother, then I'll go." Xia Chu looked at Zheng, saw that she was stunned a little, and she didn't know what she was thinking, looking at her eyes with an indescribable entanglement, she smiled, and said it again.

"Oh, okay, let's go......" Zheng subconsciously got up and smiled: "I'll send you to the second gate." ”

"I know, don't send it, what else do you want to send at home." Xia Chu smiled and said unintentionally.

Zheng was stiff.

This is the maiden home at the beginning of the summer, although the married daughter spilled the water, but no matter how polite it is, how can a mother really treat her daughter as a guest? But she really did that......

"That'...... Then you walk slowly, be careful on the road, and let the driver drive slowly......" Under her smile, Zheng slowly withdrew her hand, and paused at her feet, as if she didn't want to come out: "Come back and see when you have time, this is also your home!" ”

Do you want to have the upper hand no matter what?

Xia Chu didn't answer, but nodded.

Seeing her walk out without looking back, Zheng slowly sat down on the chair.

This is her daughter, but sometimes, she really can't understand her.

The carriage stopped at the door, and the sign of the General's Mansion was engraved in a very obscure place, which could still be seen if you looked closely. Xing'er lifted the curtain for her, and Tao'er took a snack: "Do you want to use some for the princess?" ”

It was already a little late, and I was afraid that she would be hungry, so I wanted her to pad her stomach first.

Xia Chu waved her hand weakly, she didn't have much appetite to eat. I didn't want to speak, so I sat in the carriage, leaning on the cushion with some drooping, and breathed a sigh of relief in my heart.

Why? She can obviously handle the relationship with outsiders very well, but she can't do anything about her mother.

Xia Chu still likes Zheng's very much.

She is indeed a little eccentric, but she is very good to her children. Now the embarrassment between the mother and daughter cannot be said to be her responsibility alone. But Xia Chu didn't know what to do, let her be coquettish like a child, she was really past that age, and she could pretend to be cute when she was a child, but she was even more overwhelmed as she grew older.

In her previous life, she had a very good relationship with her mother, her mother was a wise and atmospheric woman, she always knew what was best to choose, her eyes would not be on these little things, let alone jealousy with her mother-in-law, on the contrary, if her child was loved by the elders, she would be very happy.

She liked her mother very much, and told her a lot of her little secrets, told her what was on her mind, and also told her that she liked her cousin, who was a handsome and talented young man who fell into Tanhualang at a young age.

She knew that the man was also pleased with her.

But she was still engaged to the prince, and her cousin also married a wife and became a county horse.

On the night of the wedding, her mother hugged her and did not cry, but sighed softly in her ear, asking her not to be stupid. She knows her thoughts, but when she is born in this family, she can't make her own choices.

At that time, she was still young and a little squeamish, and she was not without resentment in her heart. She thought that you really don't really love me, and if so, why can't you fulfill me and let me be with the person you like?

She pushed her mother away and blurted out her anger out loud.

I'm still too young, I don't know the severity, I don't know the proportion, I only know how to vent my dissatisfaction.

Mother didn't scold her, nor did she persuade her as neatly as before, she smiled and said, "Your cousin is not worthy of you." ”

She sneered.

Later, she learned that her mother had already asked her cousin what she meant, and her cousin refused to say anything, but it turned out that his family had already told him that he would be a county horse in the future.

After knowing the news, he smiled at her in the garden of their house, and said to her in a sweet and gentle tone, "My cousin is the most beautiful daughter in the world", and sighed and said, "We are destined."

In the past, she didn't care so much, after getting married, she was the best princess, and she lived sweetly with her husband for a while, but just like that, she soon understood that the prince's feelings were really the easiest.

Her mother was afraid that she would be sad, so she would rather blame the family than tell the truth so that she would know.

In fact, Xia Chu understands everything, no matter how good her background is and how good her tutor is, she can't match the county lord having a prince's father!

That's the emperor's own brother!

But so what? She married the crown prince and later became the emperor, and the county lord and the county horse saw her and wanted to kowtow and say goodbye.

It's just that at that moment, she looked at them, there was no emotion, and she was calm like looking at a pair of strange people, with loving eyes and impeccable demeanor, as if it was her junior, not a man who had once moved her heart.

It's all in the past, and I didn't mention it, but at this time, I don't know why I remembered it again.

It should be because of the Zheng family, right?

She remembered that when she was married, Zheng was very unhappy, and she told her that she hoped that she could add an ordinary family, be safe and happy for the rest of her life, and if her family could protect her, no one would dare to bully her. She said that she didn't know that her eldest uncle had crossed them to make the decision for her, and no matter how good the General's Mansion was, it was not suitable for her.

Her voice is gentle and seductive.

Xia Chu's heart was just peaceful.

At that time, she was almost fifteen years old, and the ordinary daughter's family had already decided on a family affair at the age of twelve or thirteen.

If she, as a mother, is more attentive and already has a family to marry, where will she have the opportunity to regret it? If her mother hadn't left her in Beijing and stayed with her grandmother because she was worried that she wouldn't be able to take care of her when her father was released, she might be like her second brother, and she might have been able to stay outside the house!

Her anxiety and remorse were all true, Xia Chu knew, but she never thought about what caused that result?

It's just that I don't care.

Xia Chu is not a girl who is easy to deceive, although it is a bit utilitarian for the eldest uncle to let her marry into the General's Mansion, but why not because her father and mother have not taken care of her? She didn't believe it, the eldest uncle didn't write to tell them about the husband and wife, and he must have asked for their opinions, but at that time, she was too busy to take care of it, right?

Yes, when she went outside, she had to worry about everything in the house, her husband's official position was not officially delegated, she had too many things to worry about, and there were some who couldn't take care of one end and the other.

But why do you have to say that you don't know anything? Why do you belittle your grandmother and uncle like that?

"The princess, it's here." She closed her eyes and pretended to sleep, Xing'er thought she was asleep, and when she saw Xia Fu, she hurriedly reminded her softly.

The shaking of the carriage stopped, Xia Chu opened his eyes, hid the complicated thoughts in his eyes for a moment, and said with a smiling face: "Grandmother must be in a hurry, let's hurry up." ”

Luo Ziqian is really waiting for her, not only Luo Ziqian, but also Old Man Xia.

"Doesn't grandfather go to the outer courtyard to eat?"

…… My granddaughter has to rob my wife with me every time, and my heart is so stuffy.

"Why, don't you like to eat with the old man?" Old Man Xia glanced at her, the older he gets, the more childish he becomes, he rolled his eyes angrily, and sprayed with his nostrils - fortunately, Old Man Xia loves to be clean, and he washes his face very carefully every day, and there is no residual boogia: "You actually drove me!" "This is my house!

Xia Chu only felt that this was not even a face, jealousy with one of her granddaughters, or this kind of boring flying vinegar, was it really necessary? But she was still happy to follow the hair: "No, no, grandfather eats with whoever he likes to eat, this girl, you are the oldest, who dares to be disobedient?" ”

When Old Man Xia heard this, he subconsciously glanced at his old wife beside him.

Luo Ziqian suddenly exploded: "What are you looking at?" What do you mean? ”

"No, no." Old Man Xia learned from Xia Chu to shake his head into a rattle: "I'm hungry, let's eat?" ”

Luo Ziqian snorted very arrogantly, and twisted his face: "Pass the rice!" ”

Is...... The concubine is also so down-to-earth, is this really good?

Xia Chu didn't see his appearance, and the doting smile on his face was as if he was really looking at two children.

After eating, the eldest uncle came to greet his father and mother, and there was a bunch of small radish heads behind him, one by one obediently and skillfully greeting, and sweet and sweet, even at the beginning of the summer, he couldn't help but give birth to three points of envy, Luo Ziqian smiled and touched his head one by one, and then hugged the youngest granddaughter of the big house - that is, the sister of the second cousin-in-law - who was difficult to produce - and asked: "What about your daughter-in-law?" ”

"She was a little unwell, so I told her to rest first."

Luo Ziqian frowned, she didn't think that the Wu family was arranging the score, she really didn't dare. Xia Yan is a filial son, and the relationship with the Wu family is not as good as that of Xia Qing and his wife, so he will not hide it for his wife: "The weather has become terrible recently, and I am tired when I think about it." Go back and find a doctor to take a good look at her, even if you prescribe a few health care prescriptions. ”

"The second girl just sent a few recipes back, saying that her mother-in-law was eating just right, and asked our family to try it too." Xia Yan nodded, he didn't have a very good relationship with his daughter-in-law, but he didn't care about her at all, and took out a few pieces of paper from his sleeve as he spoke: "My son copied it, the second elder might as well try it." ”

After that, he turned to Xia Chu and said with a smile: "I know that the third girl is also here, you can bring this back." ”

Xia Bangqiu has never missed her ...... The General's Mansion has already obtained this recipe, but this is also the kindness of the eldest uncle, and Xia Chu will not call him faceless, so he hurriedly took it with both hands, and said gratefully: "Thank you uncle, it just so happens that the old woman has a cough recently!" ”

"Really? There are just two bottles of loquat dew given by the palace at home, so you can bring them back later! Xia Yan looked at Xia Chu's smile with great satisfaction, both with the demeanor of a princess and without losing her closeness - this is not her own daughter, she doesn't ask how close she is to herself, as long as she has this closeness, it is enough.

"Okay, thank you, uncle." At the beginning of the summer, he did not refuse, and responded.

Loquat dew is not a rare thing in the palace, just take it, and I am not afraid that the Xia family will be useless.

As he was talking, someone suddenly came outside to spread the word: "The third aunt is here, saying that he is here to pick up the third aunt and grandmother to return home!" ”

How did he get here...... No, it's not time to rest!

Xia Chu was stunned for a moment, but Luo Ziqian and the others had already looked at it with ridicule.

Xia Yan is an uncle in the end, and it is not easy to tease his nephew, so he cleared his throat and said: "I just heard the emperor say that the Xishan camp has made meritorious contributions to hunting this time, and I want to reward my meritorious deeds!" I'm afraid it's not that the third girl's aunt has won the reward, and she happened to come home. ”

Because I didn't see my daughter-in-law, did I come to pick it up?

So that's it...... The emperor knew about hunting her, but she hadn't heard of anything, so why did she make a meritorious service?

Xia Chu didn't ask this out of measure, but smiled.

"Call him in!" Old man Xia said: "The stinky boy married our granddaughter and there is no one, his daughter-in-law has come back a few times and has not seen him come to pick him up, now it is in my hands, quickly call him in to say hello to our old couple!" ”

Xia Chu's face burned a little panicked.

…… It's no wonder that Gu Teng, in the Xishan Daying, even when he got married, he didn't have a long vacation, and there were naturally fewer in the future.

is Xiu Mu, she also feels sorry for his hard training on weekdays, and never brings up the matter of the door, let alone let him accompany him back to his parents' house.

Nine times out of ten, she went out alone.

The remaining time, naturally, is the time for the New Year, and the whole family goes out together.

Unexpectedly, the old man's voice fell, Gu Teng walked in with the little servant, and said with a smile: "It's all grandson-in-law, it's not that it's all grandson-in-law, I'm busy on weekdays, and I didn't come to say hello to the old man, and my grandson-in-law confessed and accepted punishment."
