Chapter 6 Chang's
This Xiang Huiyu is thinking about his future, and that Xiang Subei Hou He
Chang's family is also discussing the placement of the four rooms.
"Master Hou, there is only one Huiyu left in the fourth room now, and the girl's family can't support the front door. After the funeral of the fourth brother and the fourth brother and sister, the clan must hold a meeting to discuss the resettlement of the four rooms. ā
After Chang finished speaking, he glanced at Su Beihou, only to see that his eyes were slightly closed, and his fingers lightly tapped the table, as if he was thinking about a problem. pondered for a while, and then said: "Hou Ye is the head of a family, and he is also the elder brother of the fourth brother-in-law, Hui Yu usually also casts the eye of the concubine, and the concubine has the courage to mention yƬ, why don't you take her to our house?" First, Huiyu is convenient to take care of in our house, and secondly, Hou Ye has also gained a good reputation. What does Master Hou think? ā
Su Beihou opened his eyes, looked at Chang's, and said, "The benevolence of a woman." Sister Hui waited until she was married, and there were still a few years left, and raising a kitten and a puppy would be able to give birth to feelings, let alone a person. ā
Chang said: "The concubine is not thinking that the fourth brother and the fourth brother and sister died because of the long house, the long house helped raise Hui Yu, and then find a good family affair, it can be regarded as accumulating virtue for the court." ā
"Confused!" Su Beihou scolded, "The fourth brother underestimated the enemy's situation and died rashly, and the fourth brother and sister couldn't bear to live alone and went with the fourth brother, what does it have to do with the long house!" Not to mention Chao'er! Don't let me hear that again! ā
Chang also wanted to defend himself, "But as the eldest brother and sister-in-law of our relatives, and the patriarch, if we don't come forward to take care of Huiyu, wouldn't it be even more confusing?" ā
Subei Hou secretly sighed, his wife is virtuous and generous, and the inner house is also peaceful, but she is a little soft-hearted and can't do ruthless things. "Although we are the eldest brother and sister-in-law, but I am in the army all the year round, and it is difficult to take care of things at home, and you are a clan wife, and you have to take care of the affairs of the clan, if Sister Hui lives in our house, it is inevitable that there will be negligence."
When Chang Shi heard this, he also hesitated, "According to what Hou Ye said, Huiyu is not suitable for living in a long house, so how should I place it?" The second brother is in the house, and Sister Duo is the same age as Huiyu, but they are also a companion. I wonder if the second brother and sister are willing to stop this? ā
Su Beihou said: "The decision of the clan, can the second brother still have any objections?" Besides, Sister Hui is also their in-law's niece, so it is reasonable to live in their house. ā
"Besides, the people sent by the Dingguo Mansion are estimated to be here in a few days. The Duan family is the old daughter of the old lady of the Dingguo Mansion, if it weren't for the old Dingguo Gong's determination to stabilize the world for the British Emperor, the Duan family would not have married into this northwest frontier. ā
"Now that the Duan family is not here, the old lady of Dingguo may want to take back his granddaughter."
When Chang Shi heard this, not only did his face show joy, "If Huiyu can return to the Dingguo Mansion, it will naturally be the best." Hou Ye, what news is there? ā
The Marquis of Subei glanced at Chang and said, "The northwest is thousands of miles away from the capital, what news can there be?" If the Northwest and the capital are so well-informed, how can you and I sit back and relax? ā
Chang couldn't figure it out: "Then how can the Hou Ye deduce that the Dingguo Mansion is going to take Huiyu back?" Although Hui Yu has no parents and no brothers and sisters, her uncle and aunt are still there, and the Chu family is also a big family, so no matter how short Hui Yu is, it is reasonable for Hui Yu to stay in the Hou Mansion in Subei? ā
Su Beihou replied: "You don't understand this. Although the northwest is thousands of miles away from the capital, but the fast horse whip night is only about ten days away, if it is just to come to the funeral, it must be in a hurry, otherwise it will not make the fourth brother and four brothers and sisters unable to enter the ground for a long time? ā
"But now the people from the Dingguo Mansion have not arrived after walking for more than ten days, and it can be seen that there are women and children among the people who came, so there was a slight delay along the way."
"I sent women and children from thousands of miles away, either because I was worried that there was no proper person around Sister Hui'er, so I asked my mother to come and serve, or I wanted to take Sister Hui back, and there was a mother to take care of along the way."
"No matter what the situation is, the old lady of Dingguo must be very anxious to worry about her granddaughter, if we properly propose to send Sister Hui back, the Dingguo Mansion will not refuse."
Chang couldn't help but be happy when he heard this: "Hearing what Hou Ye said, the concubine's body suddenly brightened. If you can really send Huiyu back to the capital, the concubine body can chant in front of the Buddha every day. ā
Su Beihou snorted: "This matter is not a foregone conclusion, you and I just need to understand it in our hearts, and we must not spread it!" ā
Chang Shi said respectfully: "The concubine should be extremely cautious. It's getting late, why don't you have dinner here with the concubine? ā
Su Beihou said: "I haven't seen Sister Dan for a long time, I will go to Zi Ling Courtyard to accompany her tonight, and you don't have to wait for me at night." ā
After saying that, he walked out.
After Chang Shi sent Su Beihou out, he leaned on the back of his chair and drank tea.
Mother Shi walked in and saw that Chang was absent-minded, so she said, "Madame knows that Hou Ye doesn't want you to always speak for the fourth room, why do you bother to talk to Hou Ye?" ā
Chang sighed, "Mom thinks I'm willing to do this?" ā
"Hou Ye has been marching and fighting all the year round, and I am guarding the court alone, in the early years, I was worried that Hou Ye would have an accident and leave our two orphans and widows."
"Now, Chao'er has finally grown up, and as the eldest son of the Marquis of Subei, it is inevitable that he will be in the army again."
"I have to worry about Master Hou and Chao'er, lest he have three long and two short."
"Chao's daughter-in-law didn't give birth to a son and a half daughter, if something really happens, what can I hope for..."
"I'm a woman's family, and I can't help them all day long, so I can only do more good deeds and accumulate more virtue......
"Maybe Master Hou also thinks that my temperament is a little weaker, and I keep breaking it. Sometimes I also complain about why I can't keep up with the pace of the Hou Ye, but my heart can't be ruthless, for him it is right, but for me it is too much. After a long time, I don't want to force myself anymore, as long as I have a clear conscience. ā
Mother Shi knew that her wife was a little weak, so she said: "Madame's bitter old slaves know it. The Hou Mansion is a home from the knife edge, and the Hou Ye has been begging for a living in the army, so it is inevitable that there will be some decisions to kill, but Mrs. was born in a family of poetry, books and etiquette, and it is inevitable that there will be some disagreements in ideas. ā
Chang sighed: "Only mom can you understand me." At that time, my father was the governor of the northwest, and he decided to marry me when he took office. At the time of the engagement, the Subei Hou Mansion was cooking oil with flowers, and the world said that our Changfu climbed the door to be a good family. ā
"I also feel like I've hit a bad luck point. I didn't know that after I got married, I found that I was incompatible with the Hou Mansion. I have a weak nature, and I have older brothers and sisters, so I have no idea since I was a child. After marrying the Hou Ye and becoming a clan wife, I am cautious everywhere, for fear of making mistakes. ā
Her own wife poured bitter water like this, and Mother Shi could only listen to it, "In the eyes of the old slave, Mrs. has acted very properly over the years. ā
Chang said: "The world only looks at the scenery on my face, how can they know that I am panicked." ā
Mother Shi said: "Madame is just acting a little differently from Master Hou, why is she afraid? ā
