Chapter 378~379 Storytelling
Huo Nineteen has always been able to deal with the situation calmly, except for the safety of his family and Jiang Fei, the rest of the Taishan collapse in front of him may not reveal too much affection. However, at this moment, he felt that there was a fire burning in his heart. Irritably, he got up and paced back and forth on the ground, his fingers tapping his forehead all the time.
Huo Shijiu likes to knock the table with his index fingernail when he is meditating, and it is the first time Jiang Wei has seen such an anxious appearance, and she knows that in Huo Shijiu's heart, the status of court affairs and the little emperor has always been very high. These years of allegiance have formed a kind of inertia, so that he can temporarily withdraw and retreat, he can't leave, and if he wants to say goodbye to the emperor like tearing his face, Huo Shijiu can't do it emotionally.
And judging from the current situation, if Huo Nineteen openly proposes to leave this kind of thing, there is a chance that he will offend the emperor, and if the emperor's anger is aroused, and he is arranging a crime such as treason for them, not only will all the previous efforts be in vain, but Huo Nineteen will have to be heartbroken at that time?
Jiang Yu thought about it a lot, but between breaths, she stood up and took Huo Shijiu's hand, and said with a smile: "I know your plan, so why rush it?" It's not a day or two of hard work for us to get to where we are now, is it? ”
Huo Jiu forgot about his irritability and lowered his head to look at their hands.
His frustration stemmed from his promise that Jiang Yu would leave this place of right and wrong once the matter was over, and never come to participate in it again, but there were many complications that made him unable to implement the plan. He was afraid that Jiang Wei would be unhappy, afraid that she would be angry, and even disappointed in him.
Unexpectedly, she forgave him for his unspoken deliberation so simply, and saw things so thoroughly.
"Daddy said you're a good man. Although I think it is very inappropriate to use the word "hero" on you. Now I think my dad is right. Your open-mindedness, many men can't do. ”
Jiang Yu cried and laughed: "The point is not open-minded, it's that I have become a 'good man'." Your delicate wives are now well-known men. ”
Huo Shijiu couldn't help laughing, Jiang Yu was born with a lovely appearance and a petite figure, how could such a delicate beauty be hooked with words like a man. The more I thought about it, the more funny I felt, and my mood seemed to be much better all of a sudden.
He took her in his arms and rubbed his chin against her forehead. Huo Jiu sighed and said, "Silly girl, you are really my treasure. ”
"Your treasure is full and sleeps, so that he will not be jealous of me as a mother." Jiang Wei quarreled with him and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
She was worried that Huo Jiujiu would be depressed and angry. What could be more important in the world than health?
As long as he has the heart to leave, not a tendon guarding the little emperor, he will plan for it, she believes that he is a man of his word. As for when to go, why rush.
Only a few people newly activated by the little emperor knew the truth about Lu Tianming's disappearance, and they discussed it in the imperial study for two days in a row, and they didn't come up with a proper way.
And Huo Shijiu doesn't enter the palace every day now. It was clear that he was retreating bravely from the rapids and accompanying Jiang Yu in the house. Otherwise, go to the Xiangge Pavilion to read.
Previously, because the British affairs had not been resolved, Jiang Wei had no intention of taking care of the housework, but now she had nothing to do, and Huo Shijiu was accompanied by her at home, Jiang Fei's mood was also exceptionally good, not only managed the personnel in the house, but also transferred some people from Zhuangzi to work in the house.
The land that Huo Dazhuan had opened up in the backyard was planted with lush vegetables of all colors, and the small cucumbers in the open space of His Excellency Baoxiang were once again tender and green in front of him, and the free-range chickens, ducks and geese were playing happily in the yard, and Jiang Yu specially arranged people to take care of them.
Since the plaque of the Marquis of Jinning Mansion was removed and replaced with the plaque of the Zhongyong Mansion with gilded characters, the mansion is a fresh atmosphere. Even the servants who followed and served felt the relaxed and pleasant atmosphere. It's like the mountain that is pressing on the back has finally moved away, and it can make people breathe.
On the afternoon of this day, Jiang Yu was reading the account book in the bedroom, and Yuqiao and Tingyu took a fan to fan her.
The July day is getting hotter and hotter, the air in the afternoon seems to be turning up a heat wave, Jiang Wei is pregnant and does not dare to use ice at will, and there are no outsiders, so she simply asked Tingyu to open the box and find out a silver-white pipa collar high slit cheongsam she made when she used to rise to wear, the neckline is too lazy to tie, revealing the delicate collarbone, the hair is also neatly coiled up, the slender snow-white neck is hidden in the neckline, leaning on the beauty couch with a mat, her legs are folded, and she inadvertently exposes a pair of white jade beautiful legs, and her arms are even more white and greasy.
Such a non-fat powder and full of charm is that the same woman feels hot on her face when she sees it. Listening to the rain, she was used to Jiang Yu dressing like this in the bedroom in the summer, but Yuqiao was not used to it, she took a fan and shook it gently, her face was hot and wanted to avoid her white skin, but she couldn't help but want to peek at it, and she was so envious.
Madame is truly a good life. If the other ladies are powerful and short-tempered, it is a big mistake. But Mrs. married her grandfather, and those shortcomings turned into advantages. Not only has the bad reputation of the previous "Hedong Lion" been washed away, but even beating people is now being promoted as a heroic feat. The most important thing is that the master is so attentive to her.
With a woman who is nearly three months pregnant, who will not automatically and spontaneously choose a few intercourses for her husband, and even buy one or two good concubines to serve, the masters are good, the grandfather does not mention it, and the wife does not do it.
Thinking of the man like Yushu Lanzhi, and then thinking about the low soft words he heard outside the house, Yuqiao's face was hot, and his heart jumped up like a little rabbit.
She doesn't ask for much, she can serve such a heroic man, even if she is a lifelong intercourse, she is willing not to carry her aunt.
Jiang Yan turned the page of the account book in her hand, the paper made a soft noise, and when she heard the rain, she asked in a low voice, "Is Madam tired?" Would you like to take a break? These accounts are not in a hurry to read, you are carefully tired and the grandfather is distressed. ”
Jiang Yan's eyes did not move, and she said with a smile: "In the past, things were busy, and my father and eldest sister are still there, although I am the eldest daughter-in-law, I can push everything to my eldest sister with a shy face, who called her not only my brother and daughter-in-law, but also my sister." But not anymore. ”
Jiang Yan's words were calm. Because she knew that her family should have arrived in the south by now. Although it is thousands of miles away. But it must be a good life.
Then stopped in the ears of listening to the rain and Yuqiao. Jiang Yan's calmness has become a calm hiding sadness.
Indeed, now the master in the house is only the master and his wife and the little prince, as the hostess does not take care of the housework, can the matter be thrown away.
Tingyu's respect for Jiang Yu added another layer, and he praised sincerely: "Madame is a heroine among women, with a strong heart, if it is someone else, I don't know, only a maid will never be able to do Mrs. like this." You've done your best for your grandfather. ”
"He's as dedicated to me as he is." Jiang Yu raised her head and smiled at Tingyu.
Yuqiao looked at it. The envy in my heart has increased a lot, in this world, it is really people with different fates, the same woman, Mo said that Mrs. is such an outlier in the ladies, that is, she is the same subordinate, her confident appearance and heart are not worse than listening to the rain, just because the trust of the master who comes first and then comes is different.
"Jade Bridge?"
Listening to the sound of the rain in his ears, Yuqiao suddenly came back to his senses, and forcibly suppressed the wild beat in his heart: "Listen to Sister Yu? ”
"This girl. Isn't it hot and confused? Madame said she wanted to eat some sour plum soup. Listening to the rain laughed and quipped.
Yuqiao Xia Fei cheeked and saluted, "Madam." The servant is going. ”
"Don't go." Jiang Yu casually flipped through another page of the account book, "It's hot, and I've let you fan for so long, you two carefully don't get signed, or ask others to go first." "At least it's not that hot when you're not waiting.
Jiang Yan's concern became sarcasm in Yuqiao's ears, as a subordinate, how can he have heat stroke because he fanned his master on a hot day, isn't that incompetent?
Could it be that Mrs. Fei noticed her careful thoughts and wanted to find an introduction to send her away?
"Madam, the maid is not hot, so let's go and serve sour plum soup." Yuqiao retreated in a bit of a panic.
Jiang Yu blinked inexplicably, "What did I just say to make her afraid of being like that?" ”
Tingyu looked at Yuqiao's back, shook his head and said, "Xu is that little hoof is really hot and confused." ”
After a while, Yuqiao presented the sour plum soup, Jiang Yu only took a bite, and Huo Shijiu came back.
As soon as I entered the door, I saw Jiang Yan's dress - her skin was snowy and frosty, her arms were well-proportioned, her legs were slender and fair, and her half-open neckline was really indescribably seductive.
Huo Shijiu stood in front of the door and was stunned for a moment. Thinking of the tacit understanding between their husband and wife, he used to let her wear a cheongsam at every turn, and he felt hot under him.
"Coming back? It's very hot outside, and you're still wearing this, it's hot, right? Jiang Yu got up and stepped aside, vacating the seat next to Huo Shijiu to sit on, and said with a smile: "Let's eat a bowl of sour plum soup." ”
I want to eat you......
Huo Jiu's throat rolled up and down, swallowed his saliva involuntarily, and sat down beside Jiang Yan.
Jiang Yu only thought of the sour plum soup and reflexively reflexed her tongue, and couldn't help laughing: "The sour plum soup in the kitchen is good, not so sour." ”
Huo Shijiu took the delicate gold-painted small bowl handed by Tingyu, and ate a bowl in one go, only then did he feel that the heat was gone. handed the empty bowl to Yuqiao, and picked up the account book in Jiang Wei's hand with a smile: "Why are you still looking at this?" You can leave it aside, I'll take care of the family affairs in the time. You just have to take care of your body and play with seven catties when you have time. ”
"What does that look like?" Jiang Yu glanced at him, and said calmly: "It's so easy for you to let go of government affairs and take a break, I still have to bother you with family affairs, so what's the matter." ”
"What's the matter, our two homes, don't you live your life anyway?" Huo Shijiu pointed to the page that Jiang Yu was reading in the account book, and said, "Are you looking at the account you bought yesterday?" ”
"Hmm." Jiang Wei nodded and leaned on Huo Shijiu's shoulder casually.
Huo Jiujiu's angle was just condescending to see the furrow in her open neckline, and he couldn't help but look at it twice, feeling that his body was hot again, "You are a big hero, it's really awkward to look at such a delicate thing." As he spoke, he took her hand.
Jiang Yu said helplessly: "Feelings, in your mind, I should be the type with developed limbs and a simple mind." ”
"You are petite and cute, where is Kong Wu powerful." Huo Jiu smiled and bit her hand.
Listening to Yu and Yuqiao's red faces, the key is that the picture of these two people being so intimate is too eye-catching, and it makes people blush. The two hurriedly retreated silently, and did not forget to put down the Hunan bamboo curtains in front of the window and in front of the door before going out.
The light in the room dimmed suddenly, but a breeze blew in through the cracks in the bamboo curtains, and the wind chimes in the windows fluttered and jingled.
The body in his arms is too soft and seductive. Huo Jiujiu couldn't help but hold her lips. The tips of her teeth slid over her lips. The tongue depicts her teeth, and her big hand unscrupulously probes into the hem of the cheongsam.
Jiang Yu was confused by the kiss, gasping and pushing him away, thinking that she was righteous, but her voice was indescribably soft: "Not now, the fetus is not stable yet." ”
Huo Jiu's fingertips slid over the soft skin on her legs, causing her to tremble: "I know, I have a sense of proportion." Let's go to the inner room. With that, he picked up Jiang Yu and walked quickly into the back room, put it on the bed, and put down the tent casually.
Outside, Tingyu and Yuqiao were guarding from afar, and it took a long time for Huo Nineteen to order to prepare water.
When Yuqiao entered the house, he saw Huo Shijiu wearing a snow-white silk coat, his sideburns were slightly messy but refreshed, and his face was hot again. Can a pregnant lady serve a man in the prime of life today......
Two days passed after a peaceful day, Huo Shijiu didn't go to the palace, so he simply helped Jiang Yu take care of the affairs in the house, he was not a conformist person, and Jiang Yan's body was put in the first place. Although the mistakes in the management of the house are inextricably complicated, he also did it very carefully. The people only said that the grandfather spoiled his wife without a side, and even took care of the middle feed.
Originally, Huo Shijiu is now a famous person, Jiang Yu has been rumored to be a heroine by the people, and the mother-in-law who went out to buy listened to a few rumors in the mansion, in order to show that he is a person from the Loyal and Brave Mansion and knows a lot, he casually showed off the deeds of the grandfather and his wife when they talked, and naturally they said something about it.
Her happiness for a while didn't matter, and the news that Huo Jiu was sorry that his wife was actually at home to help manage the feed in the house spread.
In addition to the image of the hero, a layer of evaluation of a good man of the Gu family has been added.
It doesn't matter if this is rumored in the streets, but the little emperor has been suffering in the palace for four or five days. He couldn't have imagined that there would be such a big event as Lu Tianming's disappearance, and Huo Shijiu would be able to endure it, and he would not enter the palace for four or five days to discuss with him.
It turned out that he was busy, busy helping Jiang Wei with the housekeeper at home, and studying what to eat and what to use!
The little emperor sat on the official hat chair placed by the window outside the imperial study with a gloomy face, angry and hurt at the same time.
If he was right, his initial premonition and worries were right, and if he really married his daughter-in-law, he left him behind his neck!
"Your Majesty ......" Xiaolu said hesitantly: "Do you want the slave to go to Xuanzhong Yonggong to enter the palace?" ”
The little emperor held his breath and had nowhere to sprinkle, so he glared at Xiao Lu, "Xuan? Do you want me to take the initiative to ask him? ”
"The emperor is angry." Little Green kowtows.
Jing Tong looked at the little emperor's expression, and said in a timely manner: "Don't be angry, the emperor is also tired for so many years." Besides, now that the status of the loyal and brave prince is precious, he is close to the nine kings are a thousand years old, and he should take a break. ”
This is obviously a comfort and explanation, why does the little emperor not feel discouraged at all, but feels that his reward has fueled Huo Nineteen's arrogance, and the sentence that is close to the dignity of the nine kings makes the little emperor very concerned: "People outside also feel like this?" ”
Jing Tong lowered his eyebrows and said softly: "Now the deeds of the loyal and brave husband and wife have been compiled into a book, and they take turns in the major teahouses, the loyal and brave man has been scolded so much before, and now it has been wiped out, the British prince was arrested, and the blue batch was exchanged for the Zhu batch, and the people in the world all said that it was the credit of the loyal and brave prince who did things for the emperor wholeheartedly." ”
Why, his forbearance has not been counted for so many years, and all the credit for the fall of the British Duke has become Huo Nineteen's?
The little emperor looked at Jing Tong. It seems that he wants to see his affection from Jing Tong's face.
Jing Tong's back was tense when he was watched, for fear of revealing any flaws.
It wasn't until the little emperor looked away that he smiled and said, "If the emperor doesn't believe it, you can go out of the palace another day to take a look." Kyoto is at its busiest in Kyoto these days. ”
After so many years under the control of the British duke, and now when a lot of power is in his hands, the little emperor really wants to go out and have a look.
Jing Tong observed the words and looks, and knew what the little emperor was thinking, and said: "While the emperor is aware of the people's feelings, if he passes by the Zhongyong Mansion, he can also go to take a look, the emperor will be very moved, and he will definitely come to discuss General Lu's affairs with His Majesty when the time comes." ”
Do you want him to come to the door in person to invite people to come?
The little emperor became more and more angry, and snorted coldly: "Prepare the car, I will go out to visit the people." The Loyal and Brave Mansion will not go. ”
"Yes." Jing Tong lowered his head and retreated, and when he arrived outside the hall, he revealed the smile that had been holding back his lips.
Smart people will wait for the opportunity, and now when the emperor is uneasy, he doesn't have to say much, just a sentence or two to let the emperor think about it himself.
The little emperor changed into ordinary clothes, took Jing Tong and Xiao Lu with him, and selected four guards, left the palace by car, and wandered around the market, teahouse, restaurant and restaurant all day.
The call for Huo 19 and his wife among the people was really high. However, after listening to the books in a few places, I have heard a lot of praise and worship for the saints of today.
Huo Shijiu has endured humiliation for many years, but the emperor's knowledge and kindness and broad-mindedness, and the words of praise also made the little emperor's heart bloom.
The more I listened to it, the more I liked it, and the little emperor smiled and pushed Jing Tong's forehead: "You monkey cub, you follow me all day long, and you haven't seen much outside, why did I believe you." You see, what are these talking about? ”
Jing Tong smiled shyly and scratched the back of his head. but I was stunned in my heart.
Why did the words of the storytellers in the teahouse in the places they walked through add those jokes from the emperor? I didn't have that before! (To be continued......)
