Chapter 25: Another grandson
Poof, the little fat man who said "I don't like her" has a too arrogant expression! Although Gu Qing felt that Li Xiaopang's appearance was disturbed by those fat, and he was not cute at all, it was really itchy occasionally. Children put on adult expressions or something......
It's really too contrasting and cute!
"Oh? Why don't you like her? Gu Qing felt that her tone was like that of a housewife who asks a kindergarten child, "Why don't you like that teacher?" The years are really a pig-killing knife, she even gave birth to a son, so she will take her grandson directly! It's still free!
Li Xiaopang's face was bulging, and he said seriously:
"Although Niangniang called herself her grandson's 'aunt', she was in the palace one by one, and when she supported me, there was a trace of hesitation on her face. Later, I didn't get up for a long time, and she was afraid that I would bring her down, so she withdrew her hand instantly. My aunt didn't show any disgust, she just was surprised, even though she thought I was fat. ”
Gu Qing listened to Li Xiaopang's words and gradually sat up straight.
"She looked at me like she was looking at someone else. She didn't look at me at all. Well, I'm afraid she forgot what I looked like now, right? She just regarded me as the 'eldest grandson of the Xinguo Mansion', and the grandson didn't like that kind of look. ”
Gu Qing and Mama Hua glanced at each other, and both of them were surprised in their eyes. They always thought that even if Li Rui was not stupid, he would never be the kind of person who had seven tricks in his heart, otherwise he would not have stayed in the Splendid Courtyard for so many years, and he would not be able to see the Fang Clan's malice.
But when he saw the queen today, he showed a steady (really heavy!). Generous, neither humble nor arrogant, but also careful, see that the queen is not satisfied with him.
"Also, when the queen mother gave me this little pendant, she hesitated. Her hand paused in the left sleeve before taking the pendant from the right sleeve. I think she probably wanted to give her grandson other gifts at first, and maybe she didn't like me, so she changed it temporarily. Li Rui pursed his lips, played with the "Nafu" jade pendant in his hand for a while, and then stuffed it into his purse.
Although this ancient jade is valuable, as the eldest grandson of the princess, it is not unappreciated that he has enjoyed something more valuable than this. Many of the things in the storehouse of the East Garden were taken by his uncle and aunt, as long as they were registered. Maybe his aunt wanted to raise his temperament at that time, but his horizons were already much broadened thanks to his aunt.
At this time, Gu Qing and Mama Hua's surprises were even greater.
Gu Qing looked at Li Rui carefully, as if it was the first time he had seen this little fat man. Gu Qing and Mama Hua didn't notice that the queen mother had so many small movements, and Li Xiaopang actually noticed it sensitively!
This Li Xiaopang may really be a piece of jade!
"The queen wants you to be the companion of the eldest prince. The eldest prince is ten years old this year, and in two years, you will be fourteen, so it is just right to be his companion. I don't go out much on weekdays, and you go out even less, so the queen is waiting for us here. Gu Qing thought about it, and decided to tell Li Rui about the queen's intention.
"Your grandmother and I are not from a serious official family, and I have no knowledge of these things in the court. Rashly agreed or not, grandma was afraid of delaying you, so I didn't say it to death. When your uncle returns to Beijing in the next year, we will discuss this matter again. ”
Li Rui nodded.
Gu Qing continued, "In the backyard, grandma can protect you." But if you grow up, you will really face jackals, tigers and leopards. You're a man, and sooner or later you're going to have to leave the shelter in your backyard, and before that, you have to introspect and get yourself on your feet! ”
"Grandma's teachings, grandchildren will remember them!"
North Park, in the Splendid Courtyard.
"What? You said that the old lady met the queen mother when she went to such a nunnery? Rui'er still kowtowed? Fang Shi nervously clenched the account book in his hand. She was checking the amount of the month with her, but in the morning, the next person who had followed the old lady to the nunnery sneaked into her courtyard and told her the astonishing news.
"Tell me more about it." Fang Shi gave the big girl Wen Xiu a look, and Wen Xiu immediately opened the box and took out two plain silver bracelets. Fang's face was pleasant and rewarded the silver bracelet to the mother-in-law.
This woman is in charge of feeding the horses in the house, and her man is the coachman in the house. This time the old lady went to visit the sick aunt in the nunnery, and she also went with his man, helping to put the footstool and the carriage when she got on and off the carriage.
"Mrs. is merciful." The woman happily took the plain silver bracelet and tossed it in her hand.
Tsk, I'm afraid there are six or seven taels! That's worth months of money. The house said that the wife was charitable and benevolent, and it was true! The woman smiled even more happily.
She accepted the bracelet and hurriedly greeted her and said, "I met by chance when Mrs. Tai was about to return home, saying that she wanted to catch up on the old days." Later, Mama Hua asked us to go back, so the slave didn't know what Mrs. Tai and Niangniang said. But later, Mrs. Tai did let Young Master Rui in the car come down and kowtow to Niangniang, and Niangniang gave Young Master Rui something. ”
"There's nothing rude about Rui'er, right? Did you hit the mother? The Fang family was not worried that the queen mother would have a good impression of Li Rui as soon as she saw her, she had confidence in Li Rui's current appearance. Although the queen mother and the uncle had that paragraph when they were young, it was precisely because of that paragraph that the queen mother would not care too much about Li Rui.
"Young Master Rui...... After kneeling down, he didn't get up at once, and he was dragged up by a few maids and mothers-in-law...... "That woman wanted to laugh a little, but when she thought that the Fang clan regarded Young Master Rui as her own on weekdays, she didn't dare to laugh.
The queen was stunned. Later, when Young Master Rui got up, he was so frightened that he kept wiping his sweat. ”
Only then did Fang put down the account book with peace of mind.
If Li Rui behaved too well, she would be worried. I haven't heard any turmoil from Rui'er for a while, but she is not sure in her heart. Mama Liu's nephew didn't enter Zhiyun Courtyard again, and now she doesn't know anything about the situation, and her eyes are black. Several times she went to Zhiyun Courtyard to pick up Li Rui back, but was rejected by the old lady, which made her even more panicked. Once upon a time, the old lady never took care of things, and it didn't matter what she said.
The Fang family didn't know what made the old lady disgusted, in the past, the old lady was kind to her, but now she was even exempted from asking for peace. wanted to serve her, but she said that she was busy and didn't dare to instruct, so it was important to add a grandson as soon as possible.
Even the old man asked her if she told Li Rui's sister-in-law that the dowry was known to the old lady, so the old lady was angry.
How did she know? She originally just wanted Li Rui to alienate the old lady after knowing about this incident and completely isolate her, who knew that he would run to Zhiyun Courtyard to make trouble! I want to ask what is going on, but I'm really afraid that the old lady will stuff people next to the master. Her mother-in-law is a person who really does whatever she wants!
She has nowhere to do it now.
"Mother? Are you busy? ”
That's right! Early tomorrow morning, you can ask Ming'er to go to the old lady's courtyard to say goodbye. The old lady hadn't seen Ming'er for a while.
By the way, I asked him to ask Rui'er what he said when he saw the queen mother yesterday.
Li Ming lives in his grandfather's house on weekdays. His mother is the only daughter of his grandfather's family, and his two uncles are one in the Hanlin Academy, and the other is an official in other places.
He was the eldest of his cousins in his grandfather's mansion, and he was used to taking care of his younger siblings below, and several of his children were obedient to him. His aunt and grandparents were very kind to him, and he was happy in everything in his grandfather's house.
But when he returned to the mansion, his father and mother always treated his brother better than he did to him. Since he was a child, if he didn't read well, he would be punished for kneeling and beating the board, but his brother couldn't read well, but his mother kindly asked him not to work too hard. His elder brother was in trouble, and he never acted like an elder brother, but his father asked him to be respectful to his brother, to keep in mind the allusion of "Kong Rong makes pears", to be humble in everything, to be gentle and frugal......
Over time, he didn't want to go home every day. Even if the two are only two streets apart.
He always felt that it was the younger brothers and sisters in his grandfather's mansion that made him closer.
Before dawn today, he was woken up by his mother and the girls. As soon as the new autumn clothes were put into the suitcase, the mother asked the girls to iron them out and let him wear them. He listened to his mother's wearing the red flowered eight-ball satin tasseled gown, and wore a pair of black satin foundation boots on his feet. Because he was too young to wear pigtails, his hair was all loose and neatly combed.
His mother looked left and right for a long time, and then let him out.
It's just to see grandma, why should you be so cautious? And his mother repeatedly told him to ask his eldest brother what he saw yesterday when he went to Ruyian, and he was really reluctant. Now that he is older, he is not very happy to help his mother do this kind of inquiry.
Mother asked him to deliver the message, and asked the eldest brother to go back to the Splendid Garden often to sit, and she thought about him tightly. The eldest brother is still in the house every day, if he wanted to see him, he would have come back to see his mother a long time ago, his mother was so good to him, but he didn't know the reason for coming to greet him every day. I live in my grandfather's house, and every time Xiu Mu comes home, I have never heard my mother say that "I think he thinks about it tightly"......
Hum!
