Chapter 189: The Grandfather's Family (2)

The Summer Palace and the Music Hall are the main halls that Xiao Fenghuan and his wife specially left for their parents to live in. Even if in the past ten years, Xiao Kun and Princess Zhenyi have only lived for a handful of days, but this magnificent mansion has been cleaned every day and never slackened.

Princess Zhenyi is in her early fifties, and her face is still fair, and her hair is dyed like ink. However, Xiao Kun, who has the reputation of "Wencai dumping half the country", is already full of white hair, looking at the age of sixty years. But one look at Xiao Kun's face shows that when he was young, he must have been a peerless beautiful man with dazzling eyes. Otherwise, he would not be able to hold the princess of a country, or in the case of the elder princess Zhenyi who is more than ten years old.

Xiao Kun and Princess Zhenyi have a deep relationship, and there is no disturbance of concubines and concubines, and they only have one daughter, one son and two children. The only daughter is Xiao Fenghuang, who was once regarded by Xiao Kun as a palm bead and loved more than her life. Her small character Wen Ying was taken by Xiao Kun himself, hoping that her daughter will always be fragrant and fragrant for a lifetime.

But his beloved daughter died young, and even her bones were buried in the fire. Hearing the bad news, Xiao Kun spurted blood from the sky and fainted and fell to the ground. Princess Zhenyi was also in pain, but Xiao Wenying ignored her opposition and insisted on marrying Zongzheng, which disappointed her and regretted her for a long time. Because of the political cultivation of the sect, there was a rift between the mother and daughter.

Therefore, Princess Zhenyi's pain is painful, and she can finally hold on without falling. During her illness, she saw her unconscious husband, whose black hair turned gray inch by inch. By the time he woke up, he was already covered with frost.

In the past ten years, Princess Zhenyi and Xiao Kun have been extremely depressed. It's not that Xiao Wenying still has a daughter, even if it's a little thought, the couple may not be able to survive this long time. In the same way, longing and grief also greatly devastated their bodies.

The two old men have to fall seriously ill every year around Xiao Wenying's birthday day. More than once they thought about taking their poor granddaughter to raise them. But he could only stop at Zongzheng's cold refusal, not to mention the judgment of the Buddhist master.

So when they heard that Zong Zhengke had already moved into Changchun Courtyard, Xiao Kun and Princess Zhenyi couldn't wait to leave Yunzhen Wubao and wait in the Summer Palace. Early in the morning, Xiao Kun stood at the door of the Hele Hall on crutches, looking out. Holding one’s breath.

Princess Zhenyi is also anxious. was still sensible, so he persuaded: "Ke'er came from Shouchun Garden, even if it is fast." It will also take nearly two hours. Let's go inside and wait. ”

Xiao Kun also knew that his wife's words were reasonable, but he still stretched his neck and stood for a while, before he and Princess Zhenyi helped each other back to the house. When he got to the inner room, he sent away the girl who served. Xiao Kun asked again, "Are you ready?" Is it appropriate? ”

From yesterday to today, I've asked seven or eight times. Princess Zhenyi wanted to joke a few words. I couldn't help but feel sad and climbed into my heart again, and finally replied again: "It's all ready, the head and face jewelry and clothing accessories are all good things that you and I have collected over the years. There are three shops in Jingli and Yunhangfu. All of them are prosperous shops with an annual income of more than 50,000 taels. There are also two granges, with mountains, forests and hot springs, which are suitable for recuperation. My fiefdom of the righteous country. There is a silver mine with good output. The deed of mine is ready. ”

Xiao Kun nodded, thought about it, and said, "Add the house in Ankang Lane in Jingli again." We Ke'er, we must have our own place to live in Beijing in the future, so as not to send others to the idle air of others. ”

knew that she had to add something to it, and Princess Zhenyi didn't care, and said, "Do we still have some silver and gold tickets?" Ke'er also has to be more active. ”

Xiao Kun praised it greatly, and with a single mouth, he took 500,000 taels of silver and 50,000 taels of gold tickets from the couple's private account. Princess Zhenyi pondered for a moment, and added two boxes of various high-quality gems.

After thinking about the meeting gift for her granddaughter, Yahuan came to report that Xiao Fenghuan and his wife had arrived, and came to say goodbye to the two elders. Princess Zhenyi glanced at Xiao Kun and saw that the old man did not object, so she allowed her son and daughter-in-law to come in.

In the past, it was she, who was a mother-in-law, who looked at her daughter-in-law unpleasantly, and Xiao Kun would occasionally help her daughter-in-law say something. But since she was manipulated and manipulated in Changchun Courtyard, she took care of her son's face, and then thought of a pair of excellent grandchildren, and pleaded for her daughter-in-law when Xiao Kun was angry. And Xiao Kun became extremely indifferent to his daughter-in-law and was disgusted.

In that incident, the princess of Xiling shouted injustice, saying that it was definitely not her instigation. But Xiao Kun believes that even if the princess of Xiling did not instruct, she also bears an unshirkable mistake. The old man was angry at the bullfight, and even said that if Zong Zhengke had a bad time because of this, the princess of Xiling would also leave with her baggage.

Princess Zhenyi observed the old man's expression, and it was quite soft, and she didn't have a scared ice cube face like yesterday, and she was a little relieved in her heart. After a moment, a pair of fairy-like couples turned out from behind the screen, both kneeling down in front of the two elders and kowtowing to say goodbye.

Xiao Kun lifted his eyelids, glanced at his son and daughter-in-law, and nodded. Princess Zhenyi hurriedly said: "Get up quickly, sit and talk." He asked his son lovingly, "You just came back from Beijing, and you have been traveling all the way, but do you feel hard?" ”

Xiao Fenghuan sat down with the princess of Xiling, and replied to her mother with a smile: "My son doesn't feel hard, but my mother is worried." I didn't see my mother for a few months, and although my mother had cleared up a little, my son was very happy to see that she was in good spirits. ”

Princess Zhenyi smiled, and was relieved to see that her son had no frost on his face. She looked at her daughter-in-law again and asked lightly, "Can you prepare a meeting gift for Ke'er?" ”

The princess of Xiling hurriedly stood up, first bent her knees to Princess Zhenyi, and then bowed her head and said softly: "Back to my mother-in-law's words, my daughter-in-law prepared some gifts according to the instructions of the master." It's just that I don't know if there are any omissions, and I have to ask my mother-in-law to teach. ”

More than ten years ago, the Xiling princess, that was a female general, a heroine who dared to face tigers and wolves. More than ten years later, she has become an out-and-out backyard woman. In the face of her mother-in-law's inquiry, she didn't even dare to say half a word more.

Xiao Kun raised his eyes and saw his daughter-in-law's frightened appearance, and he didn't feel good in his heart. The reason why he agreed to Xiao Fenghuan's marriage back then was that he felt that the frank and straightforward temperament of the Xiling princess was very rare. But now, she has also become a vulgar thing with a lust for profit.

Princess Zhenyi took the gift list respectfully presented by the princess of Xiling, unfolded it and took a closer look, and was still satisfied. She handed the gift list to Xiao Kun again, and said in a low voice: "It's quite thoughtful, the most rare thing is that a whole set of rosewood furniture, and it will be possible to marry Ke'er in the future." ”

Xiao Kun just glanced at the gift list, threw it to the ground, and sneered: "Anyway, in the future, Ke'er will be calculated to be her daughter-in-law, don't you still have to return the things to her?!" ”

As soon as the words came out, Xiao Fenghuan hurriedly got up and knelt down with the king and daughter of Xiling, who were also frightened, intending to meet another round of reprimands from the old father. (To be continued)
