Chapter 147
Chapter 147
In response to the new emperor's policy, Chu Xiaolang's full moon banquet was held very simply.
Originally, the third generation of the Chu family had this unique seedling, and according to the original idea of the old general Chu, it was to be done in a big way to show congratulations.
However, since the beginning of the year, the new emperor Xiao Ze has cleaned up the inner palace, first cleaned up his backyard cooking, set an example of hard work and simplicity, and began to sharpen his knife Huo Huo to corrupt officials.
At first, it was just a confidant sent by him, and Luo Jun led a group of officials to inspect the Quartet for the Son of Heaven. Everywhere Luo Jun went, there were constantly corrupt officials who fell from power, and the grades were not too high at first, from the county order to the government Yin, and then went up, and when the important ministers of the court found out, there were already many local officials who were sent out by the ministers sent out by the emperor to bring them to justice, and then promoted local capable officials to temporarily replace them, handle local government affairs, and wait for the new emperor to re-appoint officials
Xiao Ze used the method of encircling the cities from the countryside and the central government from the localities to gradually decentralize the officials who had met the assessment standards in the past three years and who had a firm stance and belonged to the New Emperor faction, replacing the incompetent and corrupt officials appointed by the first emperor at the time.
In addition, in the spring scientific examination, another group of Jinshi entered the Hanlin Academy to study, and they are about to become the reserve talents of the future country, Xiao Ze is even more fearless, and he does not have to make up and use the original old subordinate officials.
In this scientific examination, Lin Nan was competitive, although he did not get the first grade, but he achieved a good result of the second grade and 14th, and now he has studied in the Hanlin Academy, but he is still a showman.
By the time Rong Yan was confined in August, there were already more than 300 officials who had been escorted from the local government to the capital, waiting for the three divisions to be tried before being convicted.
Although the officials in Beijing are safe for the time being, the new emperor has not yet sorted out the actions of the officials in Beijing, but anyone with a discerning eye can see that it is only sooner or later.
It is a year worth applauding for many people in Daliang for the four years of Jianxing, many corrupt officials have fallen, local people have to complain about their grievances, Luo Jun arrives everywhere, and there are countless people who greet and bow, but for officials, especially those who are not very honest, it is a year of panic, and it is a year when everyone can only gather for dinner in the prison of the Criminal Department for fear of safety.
In addition, the family members of the palace from the queen to the concubines have all begun to be thrifty, and the family members of the officials with sharp noses sniffed the movements of the DPRK and China, and they did not dare to be extravagant and wasteful at home, and it was in this environment that Chu Xiaolang's full moon banquet began.
The grandson of Rong Guogong and Princess Yi'an, the eldest grandson of the old general of Chu, the eldest son of Chu Junyue and the lord of Huifu, how many people are looking forward to receiving the post and coming to the full moon banquet, but unfortunately the Chu family is very stingy this time, and only invited relatives and friends, such as the grandfather's family of Chu Xiaodalang, the family of the lord of Yicheng County, and the Qin Yu couple of the Qin Mansion, Wang Yimei and his wife, Deng Jiuniang and his wife, the old friend of the old general Chu, Yan Zhen, the mountain chief of Donglin Academy, Master Zhiqing of Daxiangguo Temple, and ...... Chu Junyue's best friends and playmates.
It was the eldest princess Xiao Shu who came when she heard the wind, which surprised Mrs. Chu.
"Come to the palace and ask Mrs. Chu for a glass of wine."
Mrs. Chu has a general friendship with the eldest princess, and she has only met during the palace banquet and chatted a few words, but Xiao Shu has a good relationship with Xiao Yi, and her grandson was born, which is the eldest princess who came to make a face for Princess Yi'an.
"Your Highness can come in person, but the courtiers can't ask for it!" Mrs. Chu welcomed her into the seat, and when Xiao Shu saw Xiao Jin at the table, she snorted coldly from her nostrils to show her disdain, and turned her head to Xiao Jin's sister Xiao Yi, which was really cordial.
Xiao Jin not only hated Xiao Shu, but also didn't deal with Mrs. Chu, but at this time, she was able to drink a little drink, and the eldest princess's cold eyes were nothing, and even Yu Shilan admired her motherly bearing.
Rong Yan asked Mama Zhou to invite He in person early in the morning, but unfortunately He refused to come, and even Mama Zhou mentioned that Rong Yan wanted her to go on a blind date with the two sisters of the Lin family, but she was also stopped by He. She only said that Rong Yan's mother and son were safe, and she had also seen children and adults, which was enough. As for coming to the full moon banquet, it's just a reason, sitting with a group of officials and dependents, she has to kneel that after worshipping this, her identity is there, it's better not to go, it's cheaper to be two.
When Mama Zhou heard this, she could only pat her hand.
You don't have to think about it to know that Chu Xiaolang's full moon wine must be full of high-ranking officials and their families during the banquet, and it is the most unfortunate and noble daughter of the official family.
"You tell the county lord, when I have time, I will go to the general's mansion to see her and the child, and let her not think too much. It's not that I don't want to go, but if I go, if she feels sorry for me and kneels around, it's better if I'm free, and I go over to talk to her quietly and meet the child, it's all excellent. As for her two sisters, they don't have to go. ”
Mama Zhou expressed her understanding and returned alone.
Rong Yan listened to Mama Zhou's reply, and also knew that what He was worried about was the truth. Sure enough, on this day, even the eldest princess was also at the banquet, and there were many noble ladies who had ordered them, and any of them had to kneel and bow to the He family, so it was better not to come.
Because she didn't rest well during the month, it was rare for people not to get fat, and they lost a few points, looking at the slender overhead, but the figure was more graceful because of the postpartum period, and the milk-water was full, and the plump place was really plump.
Princess Ngee Ann felt sorry for her to take care of the child herself, it was too hard, so she persuaded her: "It's time for you to let the nurse take Xiaolang to sleep, and you can give birth to yourself for two months, otherwise you look at your complexion, what does it look like?" ”
Rong Yan she has never brought it personally, but Rong Qian and Rong Xiu were brought up by her own hands, although Rong Shao is considerate and takes care of half of the trivial matters, she also feels struggling. It's not that the general's mansion can't afford to hire a wet nurse, why does her daughter have to suffer so hard?
Rong Yan reasoned with her in a whisper: "Ah Niang, the child is like a puppy, whoever is good to him will like and listen to whom." I will bring my child with me, and it will be with me. I don't want him to kiss the nurse in the future, listen to the nurse's words, then my son will not be born in vain? ”
Princess Ngee Ann was suddenly silent.
It's not surprising that a girl has such thoughts. Maybe it has something to do with the fact that she was sent out to foster care since she was a child, in the end, the mother and daughter have not been together for many years, and occasionally there are words or actions that do not fit well, she will blame herself for a long time, sad that she could not raise her personally.
Rong Yan didn't know that her aunt was completely wrong. Coming from a prominent background, she can't understand the psychology of the grassroots people.
In the case of many left-behind children in later generations who eventually became troubled teenagers, Rong Yan put the child in her own room to raise her in person. In addition, a study found that breastfeeding, which is said to be breastfeeding, is not only beneficial to the child's development and immunity, but also has a health care effect on the mother's breastfeeding, which is a win-win situation.
In the big family, the housemother gave birth to the baby and the maid-in-law to take care of the child's eating, drinking, and Lazar, and she had to cheer up to take care of the backyard, Rong Yansheng was quiet in the backyard of her husband's house, her mother-in-law was capable, and she didn't have to worry about trivial matters at home, so she could focus all her energy on the child.
Mother and daughter are not people on the same road at all in the end, their thinking has already run to the fork in the road, when the mother's heart is gloomy, quite a little sad, when the girl is a new mother, is about to roll up her sleeves to raise the little bastard, but I don't know that the little bastard was carried to the banquet in the front hall, in the men's hands are turning around, the appearance has been unanimously praised by everyone, and finally when he was hugged back into the arms of the old general Chu, he poured a soak of urine into the old general's cup.
At this time in September, because of the consideration of bringing the child to the front hall, several braziers were placed in the hall, but all the visitors felt a little hot, so the child was hugged over, turned around from the hands of the men, and finally returned to the arms of the old general Chu, and the child's bag was already scattered.
The nurse and Yahuan wanted to take it, but the old general Chu wanted to fulfill the responsibility of Ah Weng, and put it on his lap to try to complete the simple activity of wrapping the baby independently...... If he hadn't dodged quickly, he would have performed a boy pee in front of a full house of guests today.
Coincidentally, just like deliberately, the urine liquid went straight into the wine glass of the old general Chu placed on the case......
Master Zhiqing was still coaxing on the side: "Old Chu, the boy's urine lowers the fire, lowers the fire, don't you drink it quickly?!" ”
The room was full of laughter.
This old monk is from an idle prince, there are a lot of good things in his hands, what he gave to Chu Xiaolang today is a small jade lion that has been opened, the jade is moist and transparent, the little lion carving is vivid, very majestic and lovely, but it is similar to Li Fugui's woodcut small animals.
The old general Chu looked at the little jade lion and decided not to meet the old monk in general.
The corners of Chu Junyue's mouth twitched, and he stepped forward to take his son from his father's arms, skillfully wrapped him and stopped him, and then handed him over to the nurse's arms, and told her: "There is a cold wind outside, wrap it tightly and take it back, be careful of catching a cold." ”
The nurse hurriedly responded, and the eldest girl who came over, Hongying, covered Chu Xiaolang with a small cloak and covered Chu Xiaolang's head and body, leaving some space on his face so as not to hinder his breathing, so that he was carefully carried back to the backyard.
The group of people led by Qin Yu saw that Chu Junyue was skilled, obviously because of the hard work he had practiced day and night in the past month, and he was immediately greatly respected: "San Lang, it turns out that your nursing mother is all decorations, and taking care of the child actually asks you to be a big man, admire and admire!" ”
This person is really pure-hearted, almost boring.
Qin Yu and others hated him for not reuniting everyone on weekdays, and they all took advantage of Rong Yan's pregnancy, and wanted to hook him to go outside several times, trying to test whether he would occasionally hunt wild food, but there was no follow-up several times. They posted but there was no one, and whenever they asked the guards of the Chu Mansion who replied, the guards would always reply with a straight face: "The young general accompanies the young lady in the back house!" ”
Everyone always felt that not only could they hear the anger of "resentment" from Chu Sanlang's personal guards, but they also felt that they were left out by Chu Saburo after they got married.
Seize the opportunity today, where can you not laugh at him and get drunk by the way?
After the full moon wine dispersed, the father and son of the Chu family were drunk for seven or eight points.
Mrs. Chu asked the guards to help the old general Chu back to the room, and she wrung a towel to wipe the old general's face, wiping and wiping, only to hear him humming with his eyes closed, and the mother-in-law brought the sobering soup, she and Mama Du worked together to help the old general Chu up, poured him a bowl of sobering soup, and scolded fiercely: "Yes!" I don't look at how old I am, I still drink with others! ”
Mama Du smiled on the side: "Madam, the general is so happy!" ”
"If you are happy, you have to take care of your body?"
The old general Chu was not drunk to the point of not waking up at all, but when he heard his wife complaining, he immediately wisely continued to hum with his eyes closed, and simply made a drunken appearance, so he escaped.
was also drunk, and Mrs. Chu at least kindly placed the old general Chu and let him rest in the bedroom, and Chu Junyue's treatment was not very good.
He was helped back to the backyard and entered the bedroom, and the smell of alcohol was so strong that not only Rong Yan's eyebrows stood up, but even his son's small brows seemed to be wrinkled.
"How did you get this out?"
"Rejoice! Glad! When Chu Junyue saw his daughter-in-law, he put on a posture of begging for a hug, but was slapped on the face by Rong Yan and pushed his head away.
"It stinks!"
She instructed Hongying to summon Eleven Lang and Twelve Lang: "Carry your master to the study, throw him into the bathtub to make the wine smell, and let him sleep in the study tonight to wake up and wake up, so as to save the two of us from smoking!" ”
Twelve Lang is now eager to end his bachelor career as soon as possible, and the young lady's orders are more thoroughly implemented than the orders of the young general, in the cry of Chu Junyue Erkang's hand "Lady Lady", he stood on Chu Junyue's side, and glanced at Eleven Lang, "Quick!" ”
Eleven Lang was still a little hesitant, and he reminded in a low voice: "Do you want to continue to fight singles?" "Our marriage line is in the hands of the young lady.
The last bit of hesitation of Shiyi Lang disappeared, and he simply set up the other side of Chu Junyue, and the two worked together to carry Chu Junyue, who was struggling to ask his daughter-in-law for a hug.
The study room of the General's Mansion is very well furnished, there is a bathroom next door, and the bed in the study is big enough, in fact, it is because General Chu has just returned from the southeast military camp and slept in the study for a while. It's one thing for Mrs. Chu not to let the old general go back to the room, but she has never treated the old general harshly in life, and the academy is very suitable for men to live in.
A girl had already been instructed, filled the large bathtub in the bathroom with hot water, and stripped Chu Junyue, who was clamoring to hug her daughter-in-law to see her son, and threw it into the bathtub to soak. Chu Junyue was very stubborn after getting drunk, he had to let Rong Yan take a bath, Twelve Lang couldn't coax him, thinking that the young lady was only out of confinement, if the young general's request was reported to the backyard, his ability to do things would be questioned, and the young general's face was clearly dissatisfied with this request, and then look at his appearance sitting in the bathtub, everyone is a man, what else don't you understand?
Twelve Lang while doing psychological construction, while taking out a loofah pulp to wash Chu Junyue from beginning to end, the strength is comparable to a shabu horse, the accomplice Eleven Lang is responsible for suppressing Chu Junyue, who is struggling strongly, and he is also tired of struggling after taking a bath, and was carried to the bed in the study next door by the two of them, and the mother-in-law brought the sobering soup and poured a bowl down, and then stuffed it into the bed, so he was finally placed.
The author has something to say: Will I tell you that there is a watch before twelve o'clock tonight?
I won't tell you!
