Chapter 233: The "Long" and the "Short" of the Family
Mother Li sat down according to Mother Zhao's gesture, and couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive in her heart, after all, she was not in her own home at this time.
Mother Zhao ordered her subordinates to bring tea again, and put a cup in front of everyone.
Zhao's mother immediately instructed her subordinates: "Our family wants to talk, you go out." ”
A few of the men nodded yes and slowly exited the door. Haoyue stood on the side, looking left and right, uncertain, and finally retreated and closed the door.
At this time, there were only three people left in the room, Zhao's mother, Li's mother, and Li Qingzhao, and the three of them sat upright with each other, smiling at each other.
Mother Zhao knew that she was also a parent here, so she should speak first.
So after thinking about it, Zhao's mother suddenly laughed and said, "I don't know if my in-laws are coming, and I am not welcome." ”
Mother Li hurriedly waved her hand and smiled: "What is this?" I'm just here to see my daughter, and I don't need to talk about any pomp. ”
Mother Zhao smiled loudly and said, "What did you say?" The in-laws came to see our daughter, don't we treat one or two? Even if you don't talk about pomp, this basic etiquette is still necessary. So as soon as I heard that my in-laws were coming, I hurried over. ”
Mother Li said: "If my in-laws can have this heart, I will be satisfied." ”
Mother Zhao waved her hand and said, "It should be, it should be." ”
Li Qingzhao smiled and said to her mother-in-law: "My mother came today to see Qingzhao, first, I haven't seen Qingzhao for many days, and I miss it, and secondly, Qingzhao is pregnant, and my mother has heard about it, so she came to see me." ”
As soon as Mother Zhao heard this, she smiled and said to Mother Li: "The in-laws also know about this?" ”
Mother Li smiled: "Naturally, my daughter is pregnant." It's a life event. Why don't I come and see it? ”
Mother Zhao nodded and said, "This is as it should be, as it should be." Now that my in-laws have come, I don't have to rush home today. It's also a good thing to stay here for a few days and talk with Qingzhao. ”
Mother Li nodded, pursed her lips and said, "Of course I thought about it, so I came over today to take a look." ”
Mother Zhao looked at her daughter-in-law, and also looked down at her daughter-in-law's stomach from time to time, and her excitement was in her heart. At the same time, it is also expressed on the face. Staring at her daughter-in-law, Mother Zhao nodded and smiled: "Daughter-in-law is like this, our Zhao family is also glorified." ”
Mother Li hurriedly waved her hand and said, "What are these words?" Mingcheng, this kid is also honest and sincere. Ambitious, worthy of the talent of the world. ”
Mother Zhao waved her hand and smiled: "The in-laws have praised too much. ”
Although she denied her in-laws' words, Zhao's mother still felt very proud and talked about her third son. She smiled and said comfortably: "My son likes calligraphy and painting all day long. Yu is not so interested in being an official or something, and he is not like his father at all. ”
Mother Li didn't know much about Zhao Mingcheng in her heart, and when she heard her in-laws say this, she just said, "No, no." I think Mingcheng is a good kid and sincere with people, how many such people are there in the capital today? I see that my family Qingzhao can get married, which is also her blessing. ”
Li Qingzhao smiled, lowered his head and whispered, "Mother said yes." ”
Mother Zhao said: "This is not bad. As the so-called door to door is right. Both of you and I are big families in the capital, and this family affair is well-married.
Before Qingzhao got married. I feel that who Mingcheng likes is his own business, and it is not up to us elders to decide. Therefore, he married Qingzhao and married a famous girl from a famous family in the capital. Naturally, I raised a hundred hands in favor. ”
Li Qingzhao raised his head and smiled at his mother-in-law: "Mother-in-law praises Qingzhao too much, isn't this too unbearable for Qingzhao?" ”
"How can you not afford it? Affordable, affordable. You are pregnant now, and you have added another descendant to my Zhao family, which can be regarded as a hero. Don't worry, your mother cares about your daughter, and our Zhao family will naturally take care of it a hundred times, so that your mother can rest assured. Mother Zhao smiled and spoke, and swore a promise.
Mother Li listened to her in-laws' words, and her heart was overjoyed, no matter whether her in-laws' words were polite or not, she was very comfortable listening to them anyway.
Li Qingzhao smiled and said, "Then here Qingzhao first thank my mother-in-law for her preference." ”
Mother Zhao said: "Thank you what?" No thanks, Mingcheng, that nerd can marry you, our Zhao family should say thank you. ”
Mother Li said: "What a nerd, I think Mingcheng can talk and do things, he is honest and sincere, what other man in the world can compare with him?" ”
Mother Zhao waved her hand and said, "The in-laws praise Ming Cheng too much. ”
Li Qingzhao listened to the two of her sentence by sentence, either praising herself or praising her husband, and she was naturally happy in her heart. is also because he is a junior, so he only listens to the two of her from the side, and rarely interjects.
Zhao's mother said: "My in-laws came over and talked to my daughter?" If you don't say it, I'll leave first, and you mother and daughter will catch up with the old days. ”
Mother Li waved her hand and said very naturally: "What is the old and not the old, the in-laws are better to talk here." ”
Mother Zhao said: "Really? ”
Li Qingzhao also stretched out his hand to hold his mother-in-law and said squeamishly: "Mother-in-law is more lively here." ”
Mother Li also said: "That's it." ”
Zhao Mu smiled and nodded, "That's good." My in-laws came to see my daughter today, and I didn't have anything to entertain, so I just sat here and talked with your mother and daughter. ”
Mother Li said: "That's it, that's it." ”
Mother Zhao said: "Qingzhao, have you used the medicine?" ”
Li Qingzhao nodded and said, "It's all under the doctor's arrangement." ”
Mother Zhao nodded and said, "That's good, we will wait for the day the child is born." ”
At this moment, Zhao's mother stared at her daughter-in-law's belly to see, although she couldn't see anything, Zhao's mother was thinking wildly in her heart, and her thoughts drifted to after October.
Mother Li looked at her daughter and happily reached out and touched her daughter's belly.
Mother Zhao said: "Don't say it, your father-in-law is going around in circles around the house all day long." ”
Li Qingzhao asked, "What does my father-in-law do in circles?" ”
Zhao's mother said: "He is naturally thinking about you, thinking about the child in your belly, and thinking about your family of three." ”
Mother Li said in her heart: "If Qingzhao hadn't been pregnant with a child, would she still be so cared for?" ”
Mother Zhao turned her eyes to look at Mother Li again. "Really?" he asked. ”
Mother Li nodded and smiled: "Yes, naturally." ”
Mother Zhao looked at Li Qingzhao again, smiled and said, "You haven't seen your father-in-law in the house." ”
I remembered the old man walking around the house. Mother Zhao couldn't help but laugh.
Zhao Tingzhi had always been prejudiced against this daughter-in-law before, thinking that the two families were not compatible, and Li Qingzhao was not worthy of his son no matter how famous he was. But it was hard to imagine that the Cai family turned against him, and later Zhao Mingcheng and Li Qingzhao went to the court together, which led to their later marriage. Zhao Tingzhi was dissatisfied with this marriage, but he didn't expect his daughter-in-law to conceive a child so soon, and he thought of adding another descendant to his Zhao family. Zhao Tingzhi also forgot what was wrong, and only felt that his daughter-in-law gave birth smoothly, which was the first priority.
I thought that my daughter-in-law was pregnant. Zhao Tingzhi paced back and forth in the room. If it weren't for the dissatisfaction with this daughter-in-law in his heart, he couldn't help but feel estranged when he saw his daughter-in-law, he would have come to see his daughter-in-law a long time ago. He longed to come to see his daughter-in-law once in half a day.
It was precisely because of the estrangement between himself and his daughter-in-law that Zhao Tingzhi was pacing back and forth in the house with excitement in his heart. I didn't come to see my daughter-in-law.
It just so happened that his back-and-forth pacing action made Zhao's mother look right.
Therefore, Mother Zhao thought of the old man's actions here. I talked to my daughter-in-law.
Li Qingzhao listened, looked at her mother-in-law laughing, and laughed too. Mother Li looked at the two of them from the side, and naturally laughed along.
Mother Zhao then said: "Don't look at your father-in-law who has always been that dull appearance, in fact, he still admires you very much." ”
Li Qingzhao smiled and said: "I can let my father-in-law appreciate it, Qingzhao is flattered." ”
Mother Zhao said: "What's this?" Is your father-in-law still a big man in the court? He said that Po Datian is an old man who is over the age of six, and he is no different from ordinary people. ”
Turning her head again, Zhao's mother suddenly asked, "In-laws." Our two families are both from Qingzhou, right? ”
Mother Li nodded and said, "Yes." ”
Mother Zhao clapped her hands and said, "Oops." There is another layer of intimacy between the fellows. We live in the same capital, and we haven't noticed this. ”
Mother Li nodded and said, "They are all in the Shen family compound, and they don't go out much, so they haven't been in touch." ”
Mother Zhao said: "Look at it, he and Master Li are still fellow villagers!" The two of them ......"
As soon as the two of them were mentioned, their faces froze.
They all knew in their hearts that the two were against each other in the court.
Suddenly feeling embarrassed, Zhao's mother thought in her heart: "Oh, why am I talking about this?" ”
Mother Li was embarrassed and thought to herself: "Isn't this going to be a conflict?" I can't talk to her anymore. ”
Although Li Qingzhao didn't care about the government and politics, looking at the appearance of her mother and mother-in-law, and combining the things she knew in her heart, she knew why the scene was embarrassing. ”
Mother Zhao suddenly smiled, and then said, "What are we talking about this?" Since they are already in-laws, they are their own people. What other layman's words do you say among your own people? ”
Mother Li said in her heart: "I can't let my daughter suffer in her mother-in-law's house because of this incident." Even if I suffer some loss in my mouth. ”
As soon as she heard Mother Zhao say this, Mother Li naturally followed: "The in-laws are right, right. ”
Mother Zhao said: "No matter what status, we are all doing things for the emperor and for the sake of the Great Song Dynasty, so it is not enough to make any small troubles." ”
Mother Li followed: "The in-laws are right, we are both people at the feet of the Son of Heaven, so naturally we are everywhere for the Son of Heaven and for the sake of the people of the world." Li knew that her husband would not contradict him in life. Therefore......"
Zhao's mother hurriedly said: "What the in-laws said is true, they are also members of the imperial court, what is there to worry about?" Zhao thought the same in his heart. ”
Li Qingzhao smiled and said: "Qingzhao and Mingcheng also hope that their parents will live a happy and peaceful life. ”
Mother Zhao looked at her daughter-in-law, nodded and said, "If you have such a mind in the future, it can be regarded as very filial." ”
Mother Li looked at her daughter and said, "Wherever and where, she should care about her elders." ”
Zhao Mu laughed, nodded yes, and then said, "Yes, yes." ”
Looking at each other again, Mother Zhao felt still a little embarrassed, so she hurriedly said: "As both courtiers, you should work hard to serve the king." Now they both want to serve, so it is inevitable that Lao Zhao and Lord Li will have a slight conflict in their political opinions. We don't have to pursue it too much. ”
Mother Li nodded and said, "What the in-laws said is right. ”
Zhao's mother said: "Besides, it is their men's business to toss their men, and we women will just guard our children at home." ”
Mother Li nodded and said: "What the in-laws said is right, how about the imperial court, let their officials take care of it, we can't manage it, and we don't have to take care of it." ”
Li Qingzhao listened to the conversation between the two of them, only smiling slightly, but thought in his heart: "What, isn't the relationship between my father and my father-in-law in the DPRK and China not good?" Last time we fought with Lord Cai together, haven't we come together yet?
By the way, the person named Tong Guan did not leave the capital at all, and he did not even leave the imperial court. The emperor loves him and will inevitably let him take care of things.
Oh, I just hope that my father and father-in-law can go on smoothly and don't have any more trouble. Peace is the best. ”
Li Qingzhao felt good in her heart, and she was also blessing her father and father-in-law, but when she looked at the faces of her mother and in-laws, she knew that they were both superficial, and what she thought in her heart was not like this at all. When the official words came out, it seemed very fake.
Helpless, Li Qingzhao pursed his lips, not knowing how.
Hearing her mother-in-law laughing twice, Li Qingzhao thought to herself: "But my mother-in-law has a good heart, and Qingzhao will definitely not be bad if she follows her." ”
Mother Zhao laughed twice, and then said: "Well, in this case, our two families should remember the friendship of the same townspeople, the friendship of marriage, and one more help and care for each other." What do you say? ”
Mother Li said: "Naturally, our two families have such a special relationship, it must be good." ”
Mother Zhao thought in her heart: "Our two families have become in-laws, and we must not make trouble in private." What's more, Master Li is still powerful in the court, I say this, first, to improve the relationship between the two families, and secondly, to support him in the court to have one more helper. No matter how you say it, Master Li and Tingzhi are also in-laws, and they have to be merciful in everything they do. ”
Immediately together, Zhao's mother smiled and said, "Okay, I've been sitting here for some hours." It's time to have some time with you mother and daughter to have a good chat. ”
Mother Li said: "Why are the in-laws in such a hurry to leave?
Mother Zhao said: "The two of you haven't seen each other for many days, you must have something to say in your heart, it's too inconvenient for me to be here." I hurried away. ”
Mother Li still wanted to stay, but Mother Zhao insisted on leaving.
Mother Zhao picked up her coat and put it on, and said to Mother Li and Li Qingzhao: "You talk more, I'll go back first, if there is anything, just come to me." You will not be treated badly in my family. ”
Mother Li waved her hand and said: "Where is the in-law, I am an old woman, what can I suffer?" ”
Zhao's mother insisted on leaving, but Li's mother didn't stay, but watched her in-laws open the door and go out, and closed the door again. (To be continued......)
