After a few more days, the eldest lady tried to persuade the old lady, but she didn't want the old man to go home that day, and since then she has been living in the Ouchi duty room, and the eldest lady can't see it even if she wants to.

In addition, the old queen mother in the palace lingered on the sickbed, good day and bad day, the eldest lady could not enter the palace every day, and she was worried all day long, for fear that she would have no backer for a while, and the eighth girl and princess would be so yellow. All of a sudden, I saw that no one was pleasing to the eye, and several girls and mothers had seizures in a row, so the people woke up one by one, and no one dared to touch this moldy head again.

Yulan has already passed the grounding period, and in the past few days, I went to greet the eldest lady, and when I saw that her face was uncertain, I naturally redoubled my caution. The fourth girl and the fifth girl were also accompanied by everyone, and only the eighth girl, Yuxin, was as always.

The eldest lady had the intention of making trouble with a few concubines, but no one was stupid, and she couldn't find a reason to attack anyone for a while.

On March 15, the emperor invited famous doctors from all over the country to come to Beijing to treat the body of the Empress Dowager, and the edict was finally issued and published in the Di Bao, and for a time the whole country, inside and outside the court, knew that the Empress Dowager was seriously ill. Governors and governors from all over the country have mobilized, asking for peace, recommending doctors, and offering medicines, all wanting to take this opportunity to curry favor with the Queen Mother and the Emperor.

Qin Tianjian was a small official with a lively mind, spent a hundred taels of silver, took the lead in setting up the Guanyin altar in the Temple of Mercy and Grace, and set up a water and land dojo for seven days to pray for the blessing and disaster of the Queen Mother. Naturally, this matter could not be concealed from the supervision of the movements of hundreds of officials to Jinyiwei, and the emperor knew very well, so he casually praised a few words. Prison Supervisor Qintian is also a sycophant, and when he heard this, he promoted the little official without saying a word.

Officials saw the benefits and followed suit. For a time, the large and small Buddhist temples and Taoist temples in Beijing suddenly became lively, with incense lamps and Buddha candles everywhere, and the Dharma dojo made a miasma of smoke and chaos.

The eldest lady also wanted to ask the eldest lady to come forward, set up a water and land dojo in the famous temple of the Beijing master, and asked the monks and Taoists to recite a few volumes of scriptures, praying for the safety and safety of the queen mother as soon as possible, so she went to ask the old lady, but the old lady refused: "I know that you are filial to the queen mother, but after all, we are the house of the slaughtering mound, and we must have a law to do things, if you also learn from these petty officials and officials, won't it make people laugh at your father-in-law's greedy invitation to ......"

The eldest lady was unconvinced, and said: "Not only the petty officials and officials, but also the families of the ministers such as the Duke of Wei, the Duke of Xinguo, the Marquis of Lu'an, and the Marquis of Yingyang, as well as the scholars of the Criminal Department and the right attendant of the Ministry of Industry, all of whom have set up dojos. Besides, our big house takes its own silver and uses the name of the master to do the dojo, which does not involve my father-in-law, and I am the niece of the queen mother, what can the officials say? ”

The old lady saw that her daughter-in-law was so ignorant, and she was very unhappy: "Now that your parents are both and have not yet separated, you say that you are the boss, and others see that it is not the Yang Mansion, nor is it your father-in-law?" Can you still tell every minister in the court, big or small, to pray for the blessing of your husband and set up an altar, and have nothing to do with your father-in-law? Your father-in-law has a good reputation all his life, how can he be so corrupt! Don't talk about it anymore! If you really have filial piety, you took your younger siblings and children to pray for the Queen Mother, and I don't think the Queen Mother will blame our Yang family for this idea! ”

The eldest lady opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but the old lady had already said, "I am also tired, you can go down first." ”

The eldest lady touched her nose and walked out of the Songhe Hall angrily. I was very angry with my mother-in-law in my heart, after all, I didn't dare to bear the reputation of being a disobedient elder. I thought about it and thought about it, but I didn't dare to make it after all.

I went back to Yiningju, asked someone to check, and saw that tomorrow was an auspicious day for the zodiac, so I instructed the girls to go to the second room, the fifth room and the lady to spread the word in the courtyard, and tomorrow the family members will go out to worship the Buddha in the Biyun Temple in the western suburbs and pray for the queen mother.

When the news reached Lu Jingzhai, Yulan was very happy. Since he arrived in Daqin, except for that time when he secretly went out of the mansion and saw Ye Yichen enter the city, he has been like a canary, and he has been detained on one acre and three points of land in Yang Mansion, and everyone has become moldy.

The next morning, when I went to say goodbye to the eldest wife, Yulan wore an alizarin cyan gown and inserted a hollow orchid bead hairpin, which looked quite solemn. Yufei is also much cleaner than usual.

The eldest lady saw that Yulan was becoming more and more elegant and graceful, and she didn't like it, but she looked carefully at her dress, but she couldn't find anything wrong.

I went to see Yuxia again.

I saw Yuxia wearing a satin cardigan with an ochre red background and a rain-swept azure rose pattern, with black and shiny hair tied into a complicated horse bun, and a tortoiseshell-inlaid ruby hairpin inserted on it.

The eldest lady couldn't help but sink her face, put the teacup in her hand on a small scale, and said sternly: "Today I am going to worship the Buddha and pray for blessings, not to eat and drink and visit the temple fair, dressed like this, is it possible to be a Buddha to see, I really don't know who taught it, what kind of system?" ”

In fact, the fifth girl is not so heartless, compared to the past, today she is dressed in a restrained way. It's just that she is young and beautiful, and she is naturally pretty, and recently she has seen Yulan more and more elegant in temperament, so she has initiated a heart of comparison. So I wore this one to say goodbye.

In fact, she is not very bright and eye-catching, but the eldest lady still picks bones in her eggs, and it is rare to grab the handle, so naturally she will not let her go easily.

When the eighth girl saw that Yuxia was being trained, she was as happy as if she had eaten a pound of honey, and she snorted disdainfully in her nose: "Auntie, I just can't get on the table!" ”

As soon as the words came out, all the sisters in the audience were offended. Yulan sighed secretly, she knew that this sister didn't cover her mouth, but in fact, she didn't have any resentment against Yuxia, but Yufei lowered her head, and a trace of resentment flashed in her eyes.

Da Chu rules, parents admonish their children, children are to get up and bow their heads to listen. Of course, Yuxia knew who the eldest lady said, but Yuxin also wore a light red background and a hundred butterflies wearing flowers all over the ground, and the anger on her face was fleeting, and the corners of her mouth were sneering, but her eyes kept staring at Yuxin.

Look, your daughter is brighter than me, and if you want to scold her, you have to scold her first!

Yuxin girl doesn't care if she worships Buddha or not, she has a brutal and domineering temperament, and she is happy to wear which one she likes to wear, and where to care about the color of her clothes.

The eldest lady couldn't help but secretly hate her daughter's lack of anger, there were eight girls as a shield, if you want to have a seizure, you have to have two seizures together. If it's just one episode of Yuxia, it's a bit unjustifiable.

He also said a few words of dressing, warning his daughters that they are not extravagant and luxurious, that they are generous and decent, that they must behave in a proper manner when they go out, and that they must behave in a proper manner, and that they cannot fall into the prestige of the Yang family, and they also instructed a few words of worship and Buddha, and the eldest wife can only let her daughters go back to eat.

Yulan ate and took Xiaoyue Xiaoyufu to Yiningju again, except that Yufei was close to it and it was early. The second wife has already brought the second girl, the eighth girl and the heir brother first.

The girls sat quietly and drank tea, and only the eighth girl took a rattle to play with her brother. The eighth girl has already changed into a stone blue bottom treasure bottle makeup spring shirt, presumably the eldest lady forced to change.

Seeing Yulan coming in, Brother Hei'er immediately ran over to grab Yulan's sleeve, and only called out in a milky voice: "Seventh sister, seventh sister!" ”

The second wife looked at this young son as if she was an eyeball, and as a result, the daughters in the second room of the big house all stayed away from the heir, for fear that they would accidentally bump into it and annoy the second wife.

Although Yulan is busy these days, he has not neglected the second wife, even the fifth room, and occasionally walks around. Every time I go to see the second wife, the second wife will always take her brother out to play with her for a while.

Getting along with children, Yulan is experienced, in the previous life, Yulan's cousin gave birth to a little nephew, Yulan watched him grow up, and took his little nephew to the playground and played video games, and he had some experience getting along with children. She knows that when she plays with children, she must be sincere, and she must treat herself as a child in order to play together, so she gets along with her brother and son very well.

Even the second wife was amazed when she looked at it, and even said that the two sisters and brothers had a fate.

Yulan first touched the little face of the heir brother, and then saw the eldest wife and the second wife in turn, and then talked to the sisters, sat next to Yu Xin, and teased the heir brother with Yu Xin.

Brother Hei'er will be four years old next year, he will be enlightened, and the second wife will teach him to read and write without any trouble, and he has already recognized most of the "Thousand Character Text", Yulan and Yuxin took turns to test him, and asked him to memorize poems. The second wife saw that her son was smart and clever, and the corners of her eyes and eyebrows were full of smiles.

The ninth girl, Yuqing, saw that the second wife was happy, so she had the courage to come over, and when the fourth girl saw this, she also surrounded her. The second girl was unmoved, and sat quietly and drank tea.

When Mrs. Fifth entered the door, she saw such a lively scene. For a moment, her eyes were full of admiration, and she couldn't hide it.

At three o'clock in the morning, Miss Yuxia finally pinched the time. This time, I changed to a pink and white sweetheart collar embroidered plum blossom gown, and a lilac orchid embroidered plum orchid bamboo slanted skirt. A little red on the top and bottom of the whole body is gone. He is already fourteen years old, and although he is not as bright as before, he is still beautiful.

As soon as she entered the door, the eighth girl's eyes fell on her like a knife, looked up and down, and saw that there were no flaws, so she immediately sneered: "What a noble person I should be, let the elders and a group of sisters wait for you like this!" ”

Yuxia seemed to have been prepared, glanced at Yuxin coldly, and then said slowly: "Could it be that Mrs. said just now that it wasn't Chenzheng leaving?" The second aunt and the fifth aunt are here, you can be a witness, if I do something wrong, let my wife punish me, there will be no two words! If I'm right, hmph, my sister shouldn't make trouble all day long! ”

Yuxin was furious, "You ......"

The eldest lady's face sank, and she glared at Yuxin fiercely: "Shut up for me!" Yuxia was late, and it was clear that she didn't want to see her mother-in-law, and she was also angry in her heart, but Chen was setting off and she was indeed saying that people were not late, what can you say. Besides, no matter how fierce the fight in the big room is, it is also a big house matter, and she doesn't want the second and fifth rooms to be lively.

The second wife seemed to be smiling, and the fifth wife looked at her brother, as if she was unaware of the tense scene.

The eldest lady didn't bother to say polite words: "Since everyone is here, let's go." ”

A group of people rushed to the second gate, and seven or eight carriages had been prepared on the second gate, the eldest lady took Yuxin to the first car, and the second wife took Yujia to the second carriage.

The fifth lady looked around, pulled Yulan into the third carriage, and said kindly: "I often hear the old lady say that you have Su Hui, and the fifth aunt has also tried to read Buddhist scriptures recently, so I just asked Sister Lan for some advice." ”

The ninth girl, Yuqing, hurriedly walked to Yufei's side and grabbed her sleeve. Yufei didn't want to be in the same car with Yuxia, so she nodded at her and said politely: "Fifth sister, then I will take a car with the ninth sister." ”

Yuxia snorted arrogantly: "Whatever! ”

Yufei smiled, pulled Yuqing into the fourth car, and the fifth girl took the maid to the carriage behind.

After all the mothers-in-law and maids also got into the carriage, the guards slowly walked towards Biyun Temple.

In the carriage, Yulan looked at the interior decoration with interest. In this era, horse-drawn carriages are like modern high-end cars, and they can also be divided into three, six, nine and so on according to the level of comfort. The carriage of the Yang Mansion obviously belongs to the high-end category. The carriage was extremely wide, covered with a thick velvet blanket, and there was no problem for a dozen or so people to sit in it. Xiaoyue and Xiaoyu and several of Ma's personal maids also followed and got into the car and waited on the side.

galloped out of Yang's Mansion and turned onto the street, and the sound of boiling people gradually came from outside the carriage, showing that he had stepped on a prosperous avenue. Yulan talked to Mrs. Fifth without a match, and she was a little upset.

Mrs. Fifth smiled, and as soon as she stretched out her hand, she opened the curtain a little, Yulan was a little stunned, she had wanted to do this for a long time, but there were people beside her. I didn't expect Mrs. Fifth to know how to observe words and emotions so well.

Of course, Yulan will be criticized for doing this, but the fifth wife is different, as a married woman, she is much less exquisite.

Yulan looked at Mrs. Five, with a grateful look in her eyes. Mrs. Five just smiled.

Looking out along this gap, I saw a forest of shops on both sides of the road, pedestrians, and a steady stream of hand-held hawkers, all kinds of shouts in my ears.

Among the tourists on this street, there are also many young women. Yulan already knows a lot about this era. What men and women are guarded, the door is not out of the door, and men and women are seven years old. However, they are all famous families and rituals, and those women from small families from poor families have no choice but to show up in order to eat a mouthful of food.

Of course, whether it is a high-ranking family or a small household, the major marriage event still needs the order of the parents and the words of the matchmaker.

After this downtown area, Mrs. Fifth lowered the curtain, and the two of them chatted. The fifth wife said: "Last time, you sent someone to send the "Lotus Sutra" and I received it, and the stroke of Zhong Wang was really well written, and your fifth uncle praised it again and again when he saw it. You have a heart, and the fifth aunt remembers your love. ”

Yulan went to the fifth room to see Enge'er, a little person who was more than ten months old, with a yellow face and thin muscles, lifeless, crying softly like a mosquito, usually not daring to open the window at all, blowing a little wind will catch a cold, and taking medicine more than food every day. It's really pathetic.

When Yulan came back, he copied a few volumes of the Lotus Sutra and asked Xiaoyu to send them to the fifth wife to pray for the blessing of his brother in front of the Buddhist shrine.

Yulan glanced at this beautiful young woman in her early twenties, her face was gloomy, her face was haggard, and she was only focused on her son, and she was not even in the mood to dress up.

"Is Brother En'er feeling better these days?" Yulan asked cautiously.

A layer of pathos appeared on the fifth wife's face: "It's worse than before!" The imperial doctors in the palace have all been invited, and your fifth uncle and colleagues have also recommended many doctors, and they have been treated for so many days, but ...... I don't sleep well all day, I don't eat well, I'm a mother who is better than death, and I can't wait to bear all the sins for my children. ”

The medical conditions in ancient times were not good, and Brother En's face was like that, and he had a premature face, Yulan asked carefully. "Fifth aunt, Brother En'er is also two years old, why don't you ...... with Fifth Uncle Another brother? ”

The fifth wife smiled bitterly: "Your fifth uncle is busy in the yamen, if I get pregnant again, what will Brother En'er do, I, as a mother, really don't worry about handing him over to others!" I didn't believe in these gods and ghosts before, but now, I put three incense sticks in front of the Buddha every day, counting on the Buddha's mercy to make Brother En'er get better as soon as possible! ”

Yulan's heart was quite shaken, and she felt sorry for her parents all over the world! Whether it is modern or ancient, mother's love is always great.

Yulan wanted to persuade her to open up a little, but when the words came to her mouth, she swallowed it back, and it was impossible for a mother's feelings for her son to be changed by her own words lightly and skillfully.

Yulan saw a story when she remembered the modern era. "Fifth aunt, have you ever heard of the rules of tomb robbing?"

Mrs. Fifth asked with some interest, "Oh, what rules?" ”

Yulan said: "The tomb robbers make a hole, one person goes down to get the jewelry and jade, and one person ties it up with a rope, but it often happens that the person who pulls the rope revolts and abandons the accomplices below. Later, the tomb robbery gang slowly evolved into a majority of fathers and sons, but there was still an incident of a son who threw his father into the tomb. Later, the line became a rule: the son went down to pick up the goods, the father pulled the rope on it, and it is said that there was no more such thing as putting people in the grave. Yulan later concluded: "This is human nature. ”

Mrs. Fifth also felt something: "This is human nature!" ”

The author has something to say:
