Chapter 395: Tell Me Again
If you go and tell Mama Hu, you will say that I am unwell and unable to walk, and the road is slippery due to snow, so I will not go to pay New Year's greetings. That's right, send the gift. β
Lin Zhu didn't know what to say to Mama Hu when she heard Fang Yuanfang, and Mama Hu seemed to be very persistent. I'd like to say something about excuses. Then he said to Lingqing: "You go with Lingqiao, you go to find Lingqiao first, and I will go and tell Mama Mei to let her bring the gifts she has prepared." β
Lingqing hesitated a little reluctantly, and whispered: "But little lady, the princess is very fierce, will she drive us out." β
Lin Zhu said: "I don't know, I'll ask Mama Mei what she means." But if you get beaten, I'll compensate you. β
The compensation she was talking about was, of course, monetary.
Lingqing lowered her head and silently went to find Lingqing.
To give compensation or not, as a subordinate should go or have to go.
Lin Zhu turned around and walked back slowly.
"Mama Mei, do you want to go over and pay a New Year's greeting to the princess? It stands to reason that we had to go over for a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner last night. But I didn't dare to go, for fear that she would hit me. I'm not afraid to hit me. I'm afraid of hurting the child. β
She sat on the chair with her mouth pouted, her eyes watching Jin Xiaoguang talking to Mama Mei.
Jin Xiaoguang came back for so long, and he still sneaked away, so it stands to reason that he shouldn't be blocked, but he should have heard such a loud voice, and his ears are so good that they are better than donkey ears.
Mama Mei looked at Jin Xiaoguang inquiringly, just now he had already told Sima Yunzhu about the last time.
Jin Xiaoguang said: "Don't go, you stay in the house." Mother Mei, you brought me the square inch Chen steward. I have something to explain. Go out and send everyone out by the way. As for the house, you can just deal with it. β
Mama Mei agreed and bowed her head and walked out.
After a while, she came in and put a plate of dumplings on the table and said, "Lord Shizi." Little lady. The old man went to the house with dexterity and Lingqing, and a few little maids also brought it over. There is only a square inch left in the courtyard, and the old man is gone. β
Lin Zhu hurriedly said: "Remember to bring New Year's gifts to the princess." β
She bought the gift with the last silver, it was nothing more than bird's nest, shark fin, rouge gouache or something, which was quite valuable.
Mama Mei promised to take it to the door.
Lin Zhu looked at Jin Xiaoguang a little sadly and said, "Your wife really can't hide." I really don't know why she is targeting me like this, I can't figure out looking for you. You see that I have shrunken my head like this, and I still don't give up, or you go to comfort and comfort her and coax her. Tell her not to trouble me. When our child is born, I will not be afraid of her. If she dares to bully me again, I will take the child back to my parents' house. If my mother's house is not suitable, I will go to my uncle's house. With my sister-in-law, Princess Mingzhu, as a companion, no, you can send me back to your hometown Dingyuan, and let my brother protect me. β
Jin Xiaoguang has finished washing. Sit down and eat a mouthful of dumplings and say, "She's just talking." Trick up a little bit. Why can't I do you. You just have to give birth to the baby. Leave nothing else to worry about. β
"But she's always a princess, if she's really angry. If you trouble me, I guess I won't be able to avoid it. Why don't I go to my uncle's house to give birth? β
She was still afraid that Sima Yunzhu would find trouble after giving birth to a child. Maybe she hasn't really moved yet, after all, she has only been married for a few months.
Jin Xiaoguang said: "You don't believe in the master? Zhu'er, you put your heart in your stomach. If you can't protect it, what kind of face do I have? Don't worry, Shumo will come back in a few days, and he will keep you safe. β
Shumo is back, this can be believed.
Seeing that the tiredness on Jin Xiaoguang's face faded, with warmth in his eyes, he ate one dumpling at a time. He also sat down and picked up a chopstick and said, "Eat more." You can't eat such fresh dumplings outside. β
Jin Xiaoguang smiled faintly, the days outside are busy, as long as you can fill your stomach, it is not bad, now is really a special period, to defend the border to deal with the imperial court, to gain the trust of the imperial court. It is also necessary to eradicate some dissidents. What is more important is to train a first-class death squad.
The steaming dumplings are so delicious and delicious.
He kept eating and said, "Zhu'er, I'll accompany you when you want to do something." β
Lin Zhu said: "We can't go out, and we can't go to see the lake, what can we do." β
"Oh yes, let's build a snowman."
The snow in the yard was thick, and it was still falling. Build a snowman, nice.
So naΓ―ve.
Building a snowman has never appeared in Jin Xiaoguang's life. However, for Lin Zhu's pleasure, he still nodded.
Lin Zhu saw that he was not very interested, and she also saw that he was a little tired, and his eyes were still bloodshot, she didn't know what he was doing outside. , but if you want to do such an earth-shattering thing, you must work hard. I came back so late last night.
Moreover, he still bears the safety of hundreds of thousands of former ministers of the previous dynasty on his shoulders.
He said very thoughtfully, "If you feel tired, sleep a little longer." I was bored when I thought about building a snowman, and it was still snowing outside. You sleep for a while, and when you get up, I will invite you to tea, I heard that snow boiled tea tastes very good. β
It is said that boiling tea with snow water has a better taste, not only leaving a fragrant taste on the lips and teeth, but also an endless aftertaste. She usually doesn't drink tea, but a few days ago, Young Master Baoxi asked Fang Cun to bring her a bag of tea, saying that it was cloud tea, which could be boiled with snow water, which was very rare and precious. She stored it in a dry place, ready to taste it when Jin Xiaoguang returned.
Bao Xi said that it was very precious, and she was not willing to bring some to her father. Dad doesn't understand tea, as long as there is a little change in the taste of white water, even the leaves can be drunk as tea. Such a good tea is tantamount to destroying heaven and soul to him.
Jin Xiaoguang put down his chopsticks and said, "It seems that you have good tea here, and you also know how to make tea in snow water, and you know a lot." β
That is, I haven't eaten pork and the pig is seen walking. In the dream of the Red Mansion, it is said that tea is made with treasured snow water. Why don't you go to the trees and collect some snow water for later?
She walked out very enthusiastically, found a bright purple and black jar, and went to the cypress tree to collect it slowly with a jade spoon.
Jin Xiaoguang walked out slowly, came behind her and hugged her behind her back and said, "Zhu'er." Be careful, the ground is slippery. Let's go inside, it's cold outside. , let Lingqing do these things. β
After speaking, the soft mouth came up.
Lin Zhujiao said angrily: "Lord Shizi, I personally collected the tea I invited you to drink this afternoon, and it seems sincere." β
Jin Xiaoguang's heart was warm, and she watched her carefully scoop down the white snow on the branches with a spoon little by little, and put it into a small jar.
A slight smile tugged at the corners of his mouth.
He really felt tired, that's what he thought. Loosen down the tiredness.
But he felt that it was hard to get home. Before that, he wanted to come back every day. Even if it's to listen to Lin Zhu's words that he always doesn't care.
He felt that the upper and lower eyelids were always closing very disobediently to the command, and he was trying to separate. I finally came back for a day, so I had to accompany Lin Zhu. He still couldn't understand how energetic he usually was. Even if it's a lot of time. How about sleeping only for an hour or two at night. The next day was still full of energy.
Why do you feel tired when you come back this time? ???
His head bowed deeply. Leaning on Lin Zhu's shoulder, he was a little drowsy.
Lin Zhu was tickled by his hair, and when he looked sideways, Jin Xiaoguang lost his former elite state at all. Blurred eyes, drowsiness,
It seems that she is really a sleepy bug, and Jin Xiaoguang will always fall asleep in the face of her.
She helplessly reached out and touched his face and said, "Okay, Lord Shizi, go to sleep." β
Jin Xiaoguang opened his eyes slightly apologetically and said, "Yours will go with me." β
He looks very pretentious, like a coquettish child.
Lin Zhu's motherly love that was about to explode was ignited in advance in an instant, and she smiled lovingly and said, "Okay, wait a little longer." Collect some more snow and go. β
Jin Xiaoguang opened his eyes slightly half-asleep, and tried his best to hold her like a good child. When she finally said, "Okay, go back to sleep." β
Only then did he lift his feet and move the forest into the house almost half-hugging. Without waiting for Lin Shu to put down the jar, he had already gently placed her on the bed.
This sleep was really dark, and Lin Zhu woke up in the afternoon.
Jin Xiaoguang beside her was still asleep, holding her arm with one hand.
I really don't know if I'm a sleepy bug or if he's a pig.
She shifted slightly, and sat up with great difficulty.
I felt that my leg was swollen again, so I gently rubbed it with my hand. It is really hard to carry a child, the body is inconvenient, and the legs are often swollen and the feet are swollen.
I don't know how Cai Erniang, who is already an older mother, should be pregnant, and the reaction of a woman at that age should be the heaviest.
I have to find a doctor to ask for some tocolytics.
She sat hard at the head of the bed and sucked on her shoes. Holding his stomach, he walked slowly around the house. Today is already very lazy, lying in bed for most of the day, you must know that she usually gets up early in the morning and walks slowly, only sleeps for a short time at noon, and then walks slowly in the afternoon. It is said that the child is so good.
After only a few steps, I felt that the house was a little cold, and it turned out that the fire in the brazier had been extinguished.
She walked slowly to the door and opened the door, and was surprised to see that Mama Mei was square and Chen Ziqian, the steward of the Proton Mansion.
This Jin Xiaoguang is also really, didn't he say that Mama Mei asked a few of them to come over, why did she sleep unconscious by herself.
She blushed and hurriedly said, "You guys, wait a minute, I'll wake up the prince." β
After speaking, Mama Mei retreated into the house in a very meaningful gaze, and Mama Mei's eyes just now were reminding her: With a big belly, don't be so greedy for men.
She wanted to tell her right away that they were just cuddling and sleeping and nothing else. It's been more than eight months, and she's not a fool.
But this thing has always been darker and darker.
It's better not to talk too much.
She slowly walked to the bed, shook the sleeping Jin Xiaoguang awake, and said, "You just sleep, everyone is waiting outside for a long time." β
Jin Xiaoguang opened his eyes, two fine lights flashed in his eyes, and he quickly got up and got out of bed, full of energy.
It seems that sleep is really important for people.
He quickly shouted, "Come in, all of you." β
He sat down at the table.
Fang Yuan Fang Cun Mei Mama Chen stewards rushed in, and after seeing the ceremony, she stood aside.
Jin Xiaoguang said: "The master still has to go out, and it is estimated that it will take half a year." During this time, the little lady will be handed over to you. If anything goes wrong with her, none of you want to live. In addition, you also have a lot of eyes in the house, and no one in the princess can go out when necessary. Like today. This kind of thing should never happen. β
Steward Chen is mainly in charge of the male servants in the house, and there are dozens of guards in charge of the guards.
He asked very carefully: "Childe, isn't it okay for the princess?" β
He can control everyone in the house, and if the princess is really angry and angry, he is also a little scared.
Jin Xiaoguang said: "Then what did you do during this time?" β
Steward Chen said: "The old slave has people take care of the front and back yards. The princess was not allowed to step forward. Otherwise, it doesn't matter if it's 3721 or 1 streaks. Then let the maids and ladies in the house say some weird things to scare and scare them. This princess scolded every day. The old slave is a little overwhelmed. β
Jin Xiaoguang said: "Steward Chen, you just do what the master says, don't worry about anything else." She's a princess, but since she's in the Proton Mansion, she has to endure it. In short, no matter what method is used, you can't let her hurt the little lady, especially when the little lady is confined, you have to be more careful. β
Steward Chen reluctantly agreed.
Jin Xiaoguang said to Mama Mei again: "I'll leave this matter to your mother." No one is allowed to approach this courtyard. Violators were beaten to death with sticks. And the two of you, don't leave in the future. β
Fang Cun quickly glanced at Fang Yuan and said, "But, but the prince of the world, the little lady asked the villain to go to see the second uncle, whether to go or not." β
Jin Xiaoguang said: "No, the master has already told his father-in-law and arranged it." His affairs will be arranged by the Yan Mansion. β
After speaking, he got up and said, "Mother Mei, boil water to make tea." β
It's time for tea.
Lin Zhu hurriedly pointed to the small jar at the foot of the bed and said, "Use that snow water." β
Jin Xiaoguang said again: "Several of you are the most trusted people of the master, and no one should say anything about the master's return." All right, you guys get out. β
Mama Mei stayed behind and took out the dead ashes from the stove, lit the fire again, brought a black iron kettle, and poured snow water.
Lin Zhu wanted to squat down and take the tea leaves in the cabinet, but his body was too heavy and his stomach was too big, and he couldn't squat for a while.
Jin Xiaoguang shook his head with a smile, walked over and gently lifted her aside, and said, "What are you looking for to tell the master." It's about the same as your stomach bend back. Tell me what to look for and where? β
Lin Zhu pointed to the bottom of the cabinet and said, "Tea, it's down there." β
Jin Xiaoguang bent down and quickly found a bag of tea, and by the way, took out a very thick book.
This notebook is a diary cut out of white paper by Lin Zhu himself and threaded with needles and threads.
She is going to make a coming-of-age book for her children. Of course, it's her diary.
The first page of the diary is the day she was confirmed to be pregnant. Of course, this is all made up after moving here.
It's all written in the dead of night, when the thinking is the densest and the feelings are the richest.
The cover is a cute baby with smiling eyebrows drawn by herself, and it is also colored.
I also wrote in color: Baby Growth Diary. These words are neatly written,
It can be seen that it is written stroke by stroke.
Jin Xiaoguang was curious, squatted on the ground and turned the first page. (To be continued.) )
