Chapter 427: Labor

Wen raised his hand to comb his hair, and said very calmly: "If you want me to say, it's okay like this." Your second sister's old lady is a poor and disciplined person, and although your second sister and your brother-in-law have a good relationship in recent years, they have also suffered a lot. Now that the other is changing, just for the sake of your face, the old lady will not dare to stir up trouble anymore. ”

Zhen Miao listened and couldn't help nodding.

Wen is not like most noblewomen, who are bent on looking forward to her husband's success, and her son is named on the gold list, in this regard, she has always thought openly, in Zhen Miao's opinion, this is actually very good.

"I heard that your third cousin gave birth to a brother?"

The last time Wen came over, he saw that Zhen Miao was a little tired, so he didn't ask about these things.

"Yes, my name is Brother Fu'er, and now I am two years old, tiger-headed, I was going to leave, holding my leg and not letting go." Zhen Miao mentioned Brother Fu'er, the corners of her mouth were full of smiles, and her expression became softer and softer.

Wen smiled: "Look at you, you are the one who wants to be a mother in the end, and you are so happy when you mention the child." Your third cousin is considered to have come to the bitter end. ”

"Mother, you and the second aunt are relieved, I look at it coldly, my cousin-in-law really loves the third cousin, and the mother-in-law does not interfere in the housekeeping at all, she is kind."

Wen nodded while laughing, and the topic turned back to Zhen Miao: "Your baby, if only you were a brother." ”

"Mother." Zhen Miao frowned, "No matter what children are, it's fate, it's so big, maybe it will be sad to listen to my grandmother's words." ”

Wen rolled his eyes: "You girl really hurts the child, and the little person who is still in the belly knows that she is sad?" Although you don't care if it's a man or a woman, don't you care if the son doesn't care? The old lady doesn't care either? ”

Seeing that Wen couldn't stop what he said, Zhen Miao begged for mercy again and again.

Wen didn't mention it, glanced at the door and said: "Your second aunt is a person who only sees good things and can't see bad things, and if she does things, I'm afraid she will have to complain in the end." But your fifth sister is really pitiful, and the family affairs are too difficult to be high, so you should be more attentive. ”

Wen remembered that Li came back angrily two months ago, and inquired about it, he went to the eldest girl Zhen Ning, and wanted to beg her to let Zhen Bing show off at the pear blossom party held in the eldest princess's mansion this year, but he was rejected, so angry that Li scolded in the mansion for several days, and Jiang's face has been gloomy for the past few days.

"Hmm."

The mother and daughter chatted a few more words, and when Li came back, he saw that Zhen Miao was a little tired, so he said goodbye and left.

When Luo Tianhuo returned home, Zhen Miao mentioned it to him.

"Then I'll inquire."

Zhen Miao hesitated for a moment, and couldn't help but speak: "Actually, I have a candidate, but I don't know if it's suitable." ”

"Which one?" Luo Tianhuo narrowed his eyes.

When did his daughter-in-law start paying attention to other men?

"It's General Xiao."

"Xiao is not hurt?" Luo Tianhuo shook his head again and again, "No, he is the eldest son and grandson of the Yuanwei Hou Mansion, and his family affairs are not so easy to decide." ”

Speaking of this, he glanced at Zhen Miao with a smile: "Besides, you haven't heard of his amorous nature, so you can really rest assured that you will marry your cousin?" ”

Hmph, I actually let Kyaukjiao have a good impression of you, and the black can't kill you!

"It's not him, it's General Xiao Moyu, isn't he Xiao Shizi's little uncle, I heard that he hasn't married yet."

Zhen Miao mentioned Xiao Moyu, also because he had sent himself to Jingbei, and he had some understanding along the way, and he looked at it as a good one, but for some reason he hadn't married a wife at this age.

"Xiao Moyu?" Luo Tianhuo raised his eyebrows in surprise.

"What's wrong?"

Luo Tianhui's tone was a little hesitant: "Others are very good, but their life experience is a little unacceptable." ”

"Background? Isn't he Xiao Shizi's uncle? ”

"Yes, but he is Xiao Wuwu's cousin. Xiao Moyu's father was the younger brother of Lao Yuan Weihou, who died in an accident at an early age, and then his father's fiancΓ©e at the time was widowed. ”

"Widowed?" Zhen Miao shook her head, "This is too much." ”

At this time, the etiquette was more relaxed than that of the previous dynasty, and it was rare to see a widow like this.

Luo Tianhui smiled mockingly at the corner of his mouth: "Who said no, it is said that at that time, the Yuanwei Hou Mansion discussed with the woman about withdrawing from the family, but the woman resolutely refused to retreat, and she wanted to be in-laws with the Yuanwei Hou Mansion, who could stop it?" ”

Zhen Miao didn't know what to say anymore.

At any given time, there will always be a family that will exchange their daughters for certain benefits.

"Then what's going on with General Xiao?"

"General Xiao is the widow of the outer chamber. His biological mother was a dancing girl, and it was difficult for this kind of son of the outer chamber to be recognized by a family like the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion, because his father died suddenly, leaving only this drop of blood, so he entered the mansion. Therefore, he invited the widowed mother-in-law back to the house. ”

Like this, it makes sense to take the woman into the house because the man has a child and the mother has something to rely on, so she takes the woman into the house.

Later, Lao Yuanweihou's parents passed away one after another, and it stands to reason that several brothers should be separated, because they pity him for his loneliness, so they are not separated. Just this stay, there is a trouble. ”

Luo Tianhuo paused when he said this, as if he was hesitating to continue.

Zhen Miao's curiosity had already been aroused, and he hurriedly tugged at his sleeve: "What is the trouble?" ”

Seeing that her eyes were like fine pearls, clear and translucent, just looking at you like this, Luo Tianhuo hesitated and continued: "Xiao Moyu's mother-in-law was only fourteen or fifteen years old back then, and when she raised him to be a teenager, she was gone. At that time, his mother-in-law's maiden family was in a lot of trouble, and later it was faintly rumored that she had an affair with Xiao Wuwu's third uncle, uh, that is, her nephew, who was said to be pregnant and died. Although it is difficult to distinguish between truth and falsehood in this kind of thing, once there is such a statement, it is taboo for high-ranking families, and because of this, Xiao Moyu is even more embarrassed in the Hou Mansion, and when he marries, it is extremely difficult, and he himself is arrogant, so he has dragged it until now. ”

"It sounds like it's a mess, but now that his mother-in-law is gone, I don't think it's a big deal, as long as the character is good."

Luo Tianhuo smiled: "That's what I said, but as an elder, how can I not care?" ”

"Then I'll come back and see what the second aunt means."

Although Xiao Moyu is good in her opinion, the Li family is always picky, and she can't help and complains.

A few days later, the Li family came to the door again, and Zhen Miao told the matter.

When Li Shi heard this, he pursed his lips and said with a smile after a while: "If you want to say General Xiao, your ability is a big one, but your parents died since you were a child, and your life is a little hard, why don't you let the prince take a look at it again, is there anything more suitable?" ”

Zhen Miao frowned.

What's wrong with the death of both parents, the death of her family! I haven't seen her worse than anyone else.

As soon as Li saw Zhen Miao frowning, he reacted, and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter if both parents die, there is no mother-in-law to take care of it, and life is more comfortable, but he is the outer room, and Bing'er is the eldest daughter, so I always feel a little wronged." ”

Zhen Miao couldn't help sighing.

How many eldest sons can have Xiao Moyu's prominence, in their twenties, they are already up-and-coming generals, and how many eldest daughters of the noble family can marry such young talents?

It's a pity that in the eyes of the world, the family and background are always much more important than the person himself.

"Then I'll let the prince take a second look." Zhen Miaoyi said in a relaxed manner.

Seeing this, Li didn't dare to say more, got up and retired.

Since then, as the day of Zhen Miao's labor is getting closer, the Li family often brings Zhen Bing to the door and becomes a regular guest of the Guogong Mansion.

On the first day of July, it was rare that the sun did not come out, and the treetops swayed gently, bringing a little coolness, and it happened that Zhen Bing came over, and Zhen Miao asked her to accompany her to take a walk in the garden.

"Fourth sister, you are heavy, don't go out."

Zhen Miao smiled: "The sooner you give birth, the more you have to move around, otherwise it will be difficult to give birth at that time." It's rare that it's not so hot today, so go to the garden to breathe. ”

In the garden, there are large fields of moon seasons, and the pomegranates that bear fruit, and as far as the eye can see, there are scenes everywhere.

Seeing the bunches of crystal agate hanging from the grape trellis not far away, Zhen Miao's eyes lit up: "Fifth sister, let's go sit over there." ”

She held her stomach and held her waist, but her steps were still light, Zhen Bing smiled helplessly, and hurriedly chased after her: "Fourth sister, you just slow down." ”

The two sat under the grape trellis, the maid stood behind and fanned, Zhen Miao instructed Bai Shao to pick a few bunches of grapes and wash them, chatting while eating.

"This vine was planted after I got married, and now I have eaten the grapes."

"Time always flies." Zhen Bing smiled faintly.

She is seventeen years old, and with a quiet personality, she looks more stable than Zhen Miao who is full of smiles.

Zhen Miao took the grapes and peeled them carefully, the purple juice flowed down her white jade-like fingers, she didn't care, her fingers were flexible, and she quickly peeled off a complete grape bead, and then ate it, showing a satisfied smile.

"This grape is mashed and squeezed out of the juice, add some honey and ice cubes, and drink it to be refreshing, but it's a pity that I don't dare to be cold now."

The sunlight was sifted by the flourishing grape leaves, shattered into pieces and little spots of light, scattered on Zhen Miao's face, and the fine hairs could be seen, and the outstanding beauty was even more vivid.

Zhen Bing listened with a smile, looking at her face, and a faint envy welled up in her heart.

This time the fourth brother-in-law returned from a big victory, I heard that many people sent beautiful dancing girls, and the fourth brother-in-law directly didn't let those dancing girls enter the door, some people joked that the fourth brother-in-law was afraid of guilt, and the fourth brother-in-law actually admitted it generously, but made others not say much.

can be like the fourth sister, what else can a woman ask for?

"Fifth sister?"

"Ahh Zhen Bing came back to his senses and smiled embarrassedly.

"Do you have something on your mind?"

Zhen Bing shook his head: "I've always been the same, but is my mother bothering you again?" ”

"It's all sisters, what trouble to say. Let's go, let's go back. ”

Zhen Bing hurriedly stretched out his hand to help Zhen Miao up, and when she saw that her body was stiff, she hurriedly asked, "Fourth sister, what's wrong?" ”R1152
