Chapter 145: Unyielding
Previously, when Du Hengshuang's mother-in-law was here, she thought about knocking Xiao Shiji, but Du Hengshuang felt that it was inappropriate and quietly stopped her mother-in-law.
Fang Yuniang thought about it. The young couple just got married, and there are always bumps and bumps, and now that Du Hengshuang is pregnant again, let them solve it themselves. It really can't be solved, and it's not too late for her mother-in-law to come out.
After all, Du Hengshuang is living her life, and she, as a mother, is not good at everything. If you talk about a little thing, it will be a big fanfare, and when there is really a big thing in the future, the effect of her going out will not be obvious.
Fang Yuniang secretly told Du Hengshuang a few words, and then took her youngest daughter Du Hengxue back to Jingzhaoyin Mansion.
Du Hengshuang deliberately hung Xiao Shihe for a long time, but he didn't understand, and was still complaining that she was looking at him wrongly, Du Hengshuang only felt that his heart was rising up.
But Fang Yuniang's words when she left were still in her ears, and she couldn't help but listen.
Du Hengshuang took a deep breath, touched his stomach with his hand, and tried his best to calm himself down.
"It's not that I'm not looking at you squarely, I'm not daring to look at you squarely." Du Hengshuang's voice was cold with a little grievance, because she was pregnant, she couldn't hold back her tears, and her eyes soon turned red.
Xiao Shiji was originally a little unhappy, but when he saw Du Hengshuang biting his lower lip pitifully, his eyebrows were dripping, and his heart softened suddenly, and he sat down beside her with a smile, and whispered to him, "It's my fault." But you have to tell me, why are you upset about? It was good just now, but all of a sudden the eyebrows are not eyebrows, and the eyes are not eyes. I was really confused. As he spoke, he put his hands on Du Hengshuang's shoulders, turned her around, and said with a smile: "Come, look at me quickly." What dare not dare? You said you wanted to see me, and I would send it to you immediately......"
made Du Hengshuang smile with a low appearance, with a few strings of crystal tears on his face, and said angrily: "Who rarely looks at you!" β
Xiao Shiji took her into his arms, patted and coaxed her for a while, and then asked, "Can you say it now?" β
Du Heng frost air knot. Dare to love himself and get angry. This uncle is still there. I didn't know what happened to Lu Dao, I was speechless for a while, and I leaned on Xiao Shiji's arms tiredly, only feeling so tired that I couldn't speak.
It's not that I'm tired. It's tired.
Xiao Shiji is not sure why. But he still knows that Du Hengshuang is still playing a temper. I was a little puzzled. He knew that Du Hengshuang was not such a stingy person, and he would never let you guess her mind. She trusts him and trusts in him. He is her God, the love of her life.
"What else can't be said between us? Frost, you've never been such a stingy woman. I have everything to say to you, and if you have something to say, don't bury it in your heart, okay? Xiao Shiji stroked Du Hengshuang's dark hair and said softly.
Du Hengshuang said "um", and said lightly: "Okay, let me ask you, the second brother and sister are going to come to the housekeeper of the big house, why did you agree to it without discussing it with me?" β
It turned out to be this thing.
Xiao Shiji smiled, lowered his head and kissed her lightly in her hair, "I forgot." I've been thinking about going on an expedition with the prince, and it's also for your good to let her come over to the big house housekeeper. First, you don't have to worry about no one to take care of your mother, and secondly, you can also have a shield in front of you if you have something, you just have to concentrate on raising the baby and wait for me to come back. I'm going to watch over you myself and watch you give me two big fat boys. β
Du Hengshuang's crow-like eyelashes flickered twice, and she suddenly understood Xiao Shiji's intentions, she broke away from Xiao Shiji's arms, looked up at his smiling eyes, and said in a low voice: "You asked her to come and take care of her...... Xuan Rongtang's? β
Xuanrongtang is where Long Xiangye lives, and now there are more Long Shuzhi, as well as Aunt Jin, Chen Yuejiao, Xiao Tai and Guan Yunlian in the second room, and they all go to Xuanrongtang when they see the sky, and they eat and drink there. Although the family is separated, in fact, it is still Long Xiangye who is subsidizing the second room.
Xiao Shiji and Du Hengshuang tacitly knew these things, and no one mentioned them.
For Xiao Shiji, it was his brother-in-law. Now that the family has been divided, the other party comes to take advantage of a little advantage, he doesn't care, it's not that he can't afford it, and he can't watch his younger brother's room live too poorly.
As for Du Hengshuang, she was originally a loose hand, more generous than Xiao Shiji. Knowing the intentions of Long Xiangye and Xiao Shiji, she didn't even mention a word, just open her eyes and close her eyes as if she didn't see it. Besides, with the two of them in the second room, it is good to find something to do for Long Xiangye, so that she can't be idle, and it is to reduce the trouble for herself.
If Guan Yunlian was not promised to come over to help take care of it, Du Hengshuang would have to take care of a large number of people in Xuan Rongtang in person. When Xiao Shihe was not at home, Long Xiangye wanted to put his mother-in-law's money again, and Du Hengshuang couldn't hide if he wanted to.
Now agreeing to Guan Yunlian to come to the big house to take care of the house, it is just to temporarily gag their mouths with silver, paste their hands, and buy Du Hengshuang a little comfortable time.
With Guan Yunlian taking care of Xuanrongtang, Du Hengshuang has a legitimate reason to raise a baby in his main courtyard with peace of mind, and there is no need to step into Xuanrongtang again.
When Xiao Shihe came back from the expedition, all the troubles would be solved.
Thinking about this, Du Hengshuang was not so angry, but he was still a little dissatisfied, and pouted to Xiao Shiji: "I know that you are for my good, but you have to tell me in advance." In front of so many people in Xuan Rongtang, I suddenly talked about letting my second brother and sister come to the housekeeper of the big house, but my mother who was the housekeeper of the big house didn't know anything, did you ever think that this was slapping me in the face? β
Xiao Shiji thought about it, understood what Du Hengshuang meant, and said very surprised: "I want to come back and tell you." But when you were sleeping, I told Ou Yangniang and Zhihua, and then I talked about the expedition, and I completely forgot about it. β
Du Hengshuang looked at Xiao Shiji's eyes, knowing that his heart had flown to the battlefield where the flags were flying, he couldn't help but sigh secretly, stretched out his hand to help Xiao Shiji straighten his clothes, and softened, "Okay, this is the first time, I will forgive you." There will be a next time, and I will not be spared. β
"No, there won't be a next time." Xiao Shiji saw that Du Hengshuang was no longer angry, and his mood suddenly improved. He kissed her on the cheek with a smile and asked, "Good daughter-in-law, I'm going on the expedition, you can prepare my suit." β
"What's the hurry?" Du Hengshuang stood up lazily, "I have to finish the New Year, right?" β
Didn't you say that the fifteenth day of the first month set off?
Xiao Shiji coughed, and said a little embarrassedly: "The prince has decided on the side, because I am a pioneer officer, and he wants me to go to the palace to prepare for the dispatch of troops first." The prince set off with a large army on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, but the vanguard left first on the tenth day of the first lunar month. β and I, starting tomorrow. and he will go to the king's house. β
Du Hengshuang's spirit suddenly wilted again. He muttered and grabbed Xiao Shiji's front placket, "So early? Quietly raised his head and looked at Xiao Shiji's jaw, "Then when will you be able to come back?" β
Xiao Shiji stood up. Excitedly, he took two steps into the house. Eyebrows fluttered and said: "I have paid attention to Liu Heida's situation before. There were not many of his soldiers, and they were all older, and their weapons were even shorter. There was a lack of iron ore in the east, so he could not cast iron to melt his troops, and there were no war horses in the east, and the good war horses had to pass through the line from Chang'an to the Western Regions, or be transported in from the Turks in the north. I had already proposed to King Yijun that within the control of Daqi, the exclusive right to use salt and iron should be withdrawn, and at the same time, the smuggling of horses should be strictly investigated, and one should be arrested and one killed. In the past six months, he has killed many illegal traders who dare to smuggle salt, iron and war horses, which has already dealt a heavy blow to Liu Heida's strength. ββNow the first target of His Majesty's troops is Liu Heida, and letting the prince take command is to send a great credit to the prince! β
Du Hengshuang looked at Xiao Shiji with a smile, it was completely different from the unsmiling in Xuanrong Hall just now, he was now alive.
It can be seen that he really loves military affairs, and he has already made a lot of efforts.
All he lacked was an opportunity.
and Xiao Shihe and people of the same class, Du Hengshuang deeply understands Xiao Shiji's resentment and grievances. The two of them were originally two happy families, but now the family is ruined, and the sky is separated, to put it simply, it is not those who are in high positions who ignore people's lives and do not treat the people below as people.
They have no other way, since they can't change others, they have to climb up desperately, climb to a position where others can't ignore them, can't silently destroy their status.
Although there is the same danger above, that kind of danger is always visible to everyone, and it will not be quietly crushed to death like ants.
Du Hengshuang suddenly remembered Zhu Susu. She is also such an ambitious person who wants to climb up, because she has endured hardships, knows that she has no power and power, and has some skills, she can't be willing to be bland.
Donβt wait for prosperity to care for the things important to you. You want to be bland, unless you bend down and let someone trample on it. If you don't want to, you have to fight with people.
Du Hengshuang touched his stomach again. There, there are two weak beings, waiting for them, who are fathers and mothers, to take care of them.
"It seems that the uncle has the chance to win." Du Hengshuang also cheered up. Xiao Shiji is working hard for this family, and she can't hold him back. After all, Xiao Shiji was able to make contributions, and the most benefited were her and the child in her womb. She can't just think about honoring and enjoying it without suffering the separation and risks that come with it.
Xiao Shiji said with a smile: "It's still too early to say that the victory is in hand, but I do have a lot of ideas about how to beat Liu Heida." But how to fight it specifically, I still have to wait until I go to Chenzhou in the east and carefully investigate before making a calculation. - In general, it will be half a year for the short and a year for the long, and I will definitely be back. He added, "Don't worry, I'll try to rush back before you give birth." β
Du Hengshuang nodded, "Su Su said that twins will be born prematurely, you have to remember to rush back." As he spoke, he stood up, walked to the tea pot against the wall, took the warm teapot, poured a cup of warm water into the cup, raised it and said to Xiao Shiji: "I have no tea or wine here." Today, I will replace tea and wine with clear water, and I wish the uncle a smooth sailing and success! β
Xiao Shi and Da Lu smiled, took the cup and drank it all, showing the bottom of the cup to Du Hengshuang, "My wife's cup of water is better than countless aged wines." β
Du Hengshuang smiled, put the cup away, and turned around to call Zhihua to come in and clean it up.
Xiao Shiji went to the outer courtyard to give Xiao Yi the most reluctant orders.
Du Hengshuang leaned on the bed in the house, carefully pondering what she had to do during Xiao Shiji's absence, so that she could get through this period safely.
Speaking from the heart, although those people in Xuan Rongtang are annoying, they really want to hurt people, and they don't have that ability.
Du Hengshuang confidently grasped the Xiao family like an iron bucket. She is not afraid of the other party's jumping, but she is afraid that the other party will not jump, but she has no reason to clean up those emerging birds.
As soon as Xiao Shiji left, the biggest leader of the Xiao family was his mother-in-law, Long Xiangye.
In the past, my mother-in-law was a little eccentric, and she also wanted to make things difficult for herself. But since she became pregnant, her mother-in-law has been much more restrained. She is a person who values her heirs, no matter how much she hates herself, she will not joke with the lives of the heirs of the Xiao family. So on the mother-in-law's side, there is no need to worry.
Guan Yunlian has a bad brain, and now she has a conflict with Long Shuzhi again, and it is when she wants to find a backer in the Xiao family. In the past, Long Xiangye was Guan Yunlian's backer in the Xiao family, but since Long Shuzhi came, Long Xiangye's backer has been crumbling, and Guan Yunlian must be looking for someone else if she wants to find a new backer. And the hostess of the Xiao family who can compete with Long Xiangye is only herself.
So Guan Yunlian is not a matter of concern. She will only stammer herself more, and she will definitely not always work against herself like before.
The rest are only Long Shuzhi, Aunt Jin and Chen Yuejiao.
Long Shuzhi is just that, she only turned thirteen years old after the New Year, and she revolves around Xiao Tai every day, and the blind man knows what she is thinking.
Aunt Jin, with a weak temperament and a piece of grass on the wall, lives by serving her mother-in-law on weekdays, although she is favored by her mother-in-law, but in the Xiao family, she can only speak in front of her mother-in-law. Out of the courtyard gate of Xuanrong Hall, even the mother-in-law who watched the door at the second gate didn't bother to take care of her.
This person is not to be worried.
The rest is only Chen Yuejiao.
Du Hengshuang's eyes flashed, and the corners of his mouth gradually calmed down.
This little lady feels very strange to Du Hengshuang.
Let's say she's older, her age is actually younger than Long Shuzhi.
Let's say that she is small, the occasional look in her eyes is definitely not like a twelve-year-old lady, but like she has lived several lives, and there is a vicissitudes of seeing through the world in it.
And inadvertently, the sight she landed on her made Du Hengshuang feel cold and piercing, and there was some sticky nausea in it.
She was no stranger to that feeling. That year, Fang Yuniang had just remarried Xu Shao, who was then the Great Sima of Luoyang, and Du Hengshuang took her sister Du Hengxue to move to Xu Shao's Great Sima Mansion and lived on the second floor of the embroidery building. When she woke up the first morning, she was shocked to find a black poisonous snake coiled next to her pillow!
