The people living in Chongkang Fang are all high-ranking generals with real power in Daqi. Xiao Shihe was able to get the first Chengkang Fang from Emperor Yongchang, and his status in the military circles of Daqi in the future can be seen.

Although Sun Xu didn't know that the people living in the Chongkang Fang were all military generals and nobles, she knew that the mansion that His Majesty had given to Xue'er and her brother-in-law was there.

His Majesty's personal gift, of course, is not trivial.

"Why don't you move sooner or later, old lady, do you think the young lady deliberately wants to avoid us?" Zhishu tugged at Sun Xu's sleeve and whispered.

The old servant who guarded the door recognized the book, and knew that she was the personal maid of Mrs. Madame's own sister since she was a child, but now she ate inside and out, and secretly got into the bed of the second young lady's husband, and she was pregnant before the second young lady, and she was very contemptuous of her, so she said at the moment: "You take yourself too seriously." The relocation of our Hou Mansion is an auspicious day for the zodiac personally selected by His Majesty. Could it be that Your Majesty didn't like you and knew that you were coming today, and deliberately let our Hou Mansion move out today? - Your face is really big, too. ”

When Zhishu heard this, his face was red and white, but he didn't dare to provoke anymore, so he bit his lip tightly and didn't speak.

Sun Xu frowned, wiped the sweat on his forehead with his sleeve, and asked, "May I ask my brother, which side is Chengkang Fang?" ”

The old servant didn't bother to pay attention to them anymore, and reached out and pointed ahead, "Over there." Then he slammed and closed the corner door in front of Sun Xu and Zhishu.

Zhishu whispered: "Old lady, the slave maid feels that something is wrong. ”

Sun Xu glared at her, "You want to say it?" Can't I see it myself? So saying, he took the book and walked in the direction pointed by the old servant.

Another hour was gone. Seeing that it was afternoon, Chengkang Fang was still out of reach.

Zhishu was so tired that he felt that a sore back was about to break, so he held on to the wall with one hand and his waist with the other, panting: "Old lady, let's hire a car, I really can't walk." The slave's stomach ached. ”

Sun Xu was in an irritable mood, stretched out two fingers, and clamped the tender flesh on Zhishu's arm. Tightened it and turned it around to both sides.

"Ah——!h Zhishu screamed. I only felt that the flesh on my arm was going to be pulled off alive, and I almost fainted without pain.

Sun Xu asked with a kind smile on his face, "Can't you walk?" Do you still need to hire a car? As he spoke, he twisted his hand harder.

Sun Xu has worked hard for most of his life, and his hand strength is naturally very sufficient.

Zhishu grew up with Du Hengxue since childhood. It's the same life as a real lady. Even in the year of the Sun family. She's also doing well. Much stronger than Du Hengxue, where did he suffer from this kind of flesh and skin? For a while, I only hated why my father and mother gave birth to her, and I had to suffer this living sin......

“…… No...... There's no need to hire a car......" Zhishu blushed. Intermittent authentic.

Sun Xu's smile was even bigger, "That'...... Does your stomach still hurt? ”

"No...... It doesn't hurt anymore. Old lady, let's go now. The slave can hold you ......" Zhishu endured the sharp pain in his arm and immediately bowed his head to Sun Xu.

"That's good. Let's go. Sun Xu let go of his fingers, spread his palm, and gently stroked Zhishu's arm.

In the eyes of passers-by, it was a kind old lady who was comforting her maid who had just fallen ill.

Zhishu didn't dare to be picky anymore, gritted his teeth and helped Sun Xu, asked for directions all the way, and finally came to the door of the Zhuguo Marquis Mansion in Chengkang Fang at dusk.

When I first entered the Lifang, I was so frightened by the two tall and fierce gatekeepers at the gate of the Lifang that my feet were weak, and I almost couldn't stand.

Is it really where the officials live? It's too different from the neighborhood where ordinary people live in other places.

"Looking for whom?" One of the soldiers asked aloud.

Sun Xu hurriedly said: "Master Bing, the old man is a relative of the Marquis of Zhu here, and his wife's sister-in-law is my daughter-in-law. ”

The soldier guarding the door was just a fierce face, but he was actually a very decent person, so he was chosen here to be the doorman of the house.

Listening to Sun Xu's words, this soldier was stunned all of a sudden, what is Mrs. Hou's sister is her daughter-in-law......

The soldier scratched his head, listened for a long time, and finally figured out that this old woman was a relative of the wife of the new noble Zhu Guohou, so he waved his hand and let him go, "Go in." Remember to come out earlier. After the door is closed, you can't get out. ”

There is a curfew in Chang'an, Daqi.

At curfew, the doors of each neighborhood are closed, and no one is allowed to go out or enter unless there is a special token.

However, the interior of each lane is still self-contained, and you can walk around at night, and there are also various taverns and inns that are open until late at night.

Sun Xu hurriedly took the book into Chengkang Fang, and once again asked for directions all the way before coming to the gate of the Marquis of Zhuguo's mansion.

They walked along the courtyard wall for almost half an hour before they came to the main gate of the Marquis of Zhuguo.

In the end, it is the residence of the prince of the first rank of the prince given by His Majesty.

This big mansion covering an area of 100 acres is staggering to see Sun Xu and Zhishu.

Standing at the door, you can only see the ancient trees inside and the green trees, blocking the sight of outsiders. Only among the leaves and branches of the tree, you can see the occasional corner of the heavy eaves, and the pavilions and pavilions of different colors and forms can be seen faintly.

How big is this Hou Mansion?

Sun Xu's mind suddenly came to mind that his home was in the second courtyard of Xuanyi Fang, which was not as big as the main gate of the house......

Zhishu also looked at it with envy, and whispered to Sun Xu's family: "Old lady, the slave maid knows that the Du family is in Chang'an City, and there are several big mansions, although it is not as grand as this, but it is not much worse. As long as the old lady said a few more soft words to the young lady, the young lady was soft-hearted, and she would go to her mother and ask for a few big mansions for us to live in. ”

Sun Xu heard this, and said to Zhishu with a pleasant face: "Good boy, I remember your benefits." As long as you give birth to a son to my son, I will definitely promote you to be the second room. ”

Knowing the book, he forgot the pain in his arm for a while, and said busily: "Old lady, the slave maid does not expect to be a second room, and it is the blessing of the slave and maid to be able to serve tea and water by the uncle's side for the rest of his life." ”

The master and servant got along very well, and went up and knocked on the corner door.

Soon someone answered. Pulling open a crack in the door and asking, "Which one, please?" ”

Zhishu stepped forward and said: "This little brother, we are the family of Mrs. Mother's sister, I am Zhishu, when I was in the Du family's mother's house, I was the same big girl as Mrs. Zhishu's knowledge, knowledge, and etiquette. I serve the second lady. ”

The little guy who watched the corner gate was not a domestic servant brought from the Xiao family, but a group of subordinates who were bought in order to move to the Hou Mansion. He picked his eyelids and looked Zhishu up and down.

This little guy knows that the big girl next to Mrs. is indeed a "knowing" generation, especially knowing numbers. That's the famous big girl. In addition to Ou Yangniang in the inner courtyard, it is the first share of Sister Zhishu.

didn't dare to slack off at the moment, and said with a smile: "Wait a minute, let me pass on a word." ”

This little guy called another little guy to guard here. I drove a small mule cart in the wind. Hurriedly went up to the second gate.

The mother-in-law of the second gate is a subordinate brought from the Xiao family. It was also Du Hengshuang who brought the dowry from the Du family back then, and knew that it was the second lady's mother-in-law who came, so she hurriedly went to Du Hengshuang to report the news.

Du Hengshuang only brought nearly 100 people from the Xiao family to the Hou Mansion this morning.

Although someone has long been cleaning and settling here. But now that they have just moved in, they still have to work hard to set up equipment, assign houses, and deploy manpower, and they are very busy from morning to night.

At this time, I was just a little busy with big things, and I just sat down to rest and drink tea.

Hearing that Sun Xu and Zhishu were here, Du Hengshuang's heart moved, and he remembered what he said to Du Hengxue last night.

Yesterday, Sun Yaozu couldn't pick up Du Hengxue, and after leaving angrily, Du Hengxue ran back to the inner courtyard of the Xiao family crying.

After Du Hengshuang heard the story of Du Hengxue and Sun Yaozu's meeting, she put down what she was busy with and came to Du Hengxue's house to comfort her.

saw that Du Hengxue seemed to have cried, and sat in front of the window with a sad look of more than death, staring blankly at a pot of phalaenopsis on the windowsill.

Du Hengshuang dismissed his subordinates, walked in alone, and sat silently beside Du Hengxue.

Du Hengxue turned her head and saw that Du Hengshuang was coming, and the corners of her mouth curved, which was regarded as giving her a smile to say hello.

Du Hengshuang reached out and touched Du Hengxue's bun, and when she saw the ends of those withered yellow and split hair, she felt very sorry in her heart, and said in a low voice: "Xue'er, I have already heard a lot about today's matter." ”

Du Hengxue lowered her head, her pale face reflected the evening twilight, there was an indescribable fragility and moving, like a good glass, beautiful but fragile.

Du Hengshuang always had doubts in her heart, so she asked at this time: "Xue'er, when you got married, my sister happened to be in trouble, and I didn't have time to give you a marriage." Tell your sister what the hell is going on? How dare their Sun family treat you like this? Aren't you afraid that your mother will know that she will bury their grandson alive? And Lord Xu, how can he sit back and watch the Sun family abuse you? ”

Du Hengxue's head hung lower. But since my sister asked this time, she didn't dare to stop talking. Besides, the Sun family is not worthy of her saying good things for them anymore.

Du Hengxue was silent for a moment, although her voice was small, she spoke clearly, and told what she had happened to the Sun family in the past year.

“…… Sister, I never mentioned these things to my mother and father. They don't know about these things about the Sun family. As he spoke, he eagerly explained: "Sister, they are here to ask for marriage, not that I must marry them with a dead face." It's uncle...... Sun Yaozu asked Zhishu to pass the word several times and asked me to meet. Although I don't think it's good, I can't stand the hospitality, and ...... And, ......, I'm at fault too. Sister, I like to listen to Sun Yaozu, he treated me so well at that time. Every sentence speaks to my heart......" Du Hengxue raised her head, with a dreamy look on her face, recalling her past with Sun Yaozu.

"When you didn't decide to marry, you met Sun Yaozu in private?" Du Hengshuang's heart sank, and he was a little annoyed, "Or did Zhishu instigate you?" Do you know what to do? ”

Du Hengxue hurriedly shook her head, "Mother doesn't know what to do." I never told my mother that if my mother knew that the book was mixed in it, Guan Bao would beat her to death. ”

Du Hengshuang sneered: "It's okay to be killed." Kill you, and you won't suffer this sin. ”

Du Hengxue's face turned white again, and she said sadly: "Sister, you don't know the way, even if you don't know the book, I will marry Sun Yaozu." ”

Why is that? Do you really like him? Du Hengshuang was a little worried. If Xue'er's heart is on Sun Yaozu's coward, what should she do?

Du Hengxue shook his head. "Although I thought he was very good at that time, I didn't have to marry him. If my mother doesn't let me marry, I won't marry. ”

"Then why are you still married?"

Du Hengxue pursed her lips, "It's only once in a while since I married into the Sun family, and I heard Sun Yaozu get drunk and say that it was my father who came to their door and begged my mother-in-law to come to the door to propose marriage." - With my father's insistence, I have to marry if I don't marry. ”

Du Hengshuang knew that Du Hengxue had always called Xu Shao "Dad". If their father, Du Xiancheng, is indeed dead. Du Hengshuang is also forgotten. Let Du Hengxue scream. But now that she knows that she and Xue'er's father are still alive, and when she hears Du Hengxue call Xu Shao "Dad", she feels extremely awkward, and finally can't help but correct her: "Lord Xu." Not our own father. The most you can do is call him father. Don't call him 'Daddy' anymore. ”

Du Hengxue smiled bitterly. said to Du Hengshuang: "Sister." I'm used to it, and I haven't changed it for a while. Actually, I don't want to call him father. As he spoke, he said to Du Hengshuang with admiration: "It's still sister, you know what to do." Since he was a child, he has called him 'Master Xu', and never called him father or father. It's me who is confused, people don't really love me, and I still rush to call him 'Dad'. ”

Sadness came from it for a while, and she threw herself into Du Hengshuang's arms and cried, crying while saying: "Sister, sister, I really want to have a father, a very powerful father, when others bully us, you can stand up and protect us, don't let my sister be angry, and don't let me be humiliated......"

Lost at an early age, remarried by his mother, and sent people to the bitterness under the fence, only those who have tasted it know the taste.

Du Hengshuang couldn't help but reddened her eyes, hugged Du Hengxue tightly in her arms, and said continuously: "Xue'er, Xue'er, don't be sad, we have a daddy, we have a daddy." Our daddy didn't die......"

Du Hengxue raised her head suddenly, with tears in her eyes, and asked, "Sister, you don't lie to me?" Is Daddy really not dead? Is he really alive? It's our own daddy, isn't it? Eagerly and apprehensively, he searched Du Hengshuang's eyes to get a positive answer from her.

Du Hengshuang nodded solemnly, "My sister never lied to you." When our father went to sea, you were too young to remember. The news of his death is also misinformation. A few years ago, he actually came back once, and I met him. It's a pity that it was gone again soon. ”

Du Hengxue's eyes suddenly lit up, "Really? That's great. I've got a daddy, I've got a daddy! - Where's Daddy? Will it be back? ”

Du Hengshuang wiped Du Hengxue's face with a silk again, and then said gently: "Okay, when Daddy comes back in the future, I will naturally take you to see him." Go on and talk about yourself. My sister wants to know that Lu is clear, and then give us Xue'er a good breath. ”

Du Hengxue wrinkled her little nose, snuggled softly in Du Hengshuang's arms, and continued: "...... After getting married, the three dynasties returned to the door. Du Hengxue paused and hugged Du Hengshuang even tighter.

The day when the three dynasties returned to the door was the day that Du Hengxue would never forget.

“…… On that day, while I was talking to my mother, Qian Bo came to report that my sister had been 'killed' in Zhuangzi, and my mother fainted at that time. It's a mess inside and outside the house. I was newly married at that time, and when I heard that something had happened to my sister, I was also very sad, and I cried day and night at home. At that time, Sun Yaozu was very considerate to me, talking to me every day, and taking me out to play, relaxing, and reciting poems with me in front of the flowers and under the moon at night. He also kept watch over me when I was in the house. I embroidered, he studied, I cooked tea, he cooked wine, and I really lived happily for more than a month. Du Hengxue's cheeks showed a slight flush.

When you are newly married, you have such a period of honey and oil, like lacquer, right?

"At that time, my mother didn't believe that my sister went like this, and I went crazy looking for you everywhere, and every few days, I took a large team of people to search for the suburbs. Later, someone said that in Luoyang, I saw someone who looked like my sister and Zhihua, and my mother took someone to Luoyang. I also wanted to go along, and there was a disturbance at home, but my mother-in-law just refused. Later, my mother-in-law said that I am a daughter of the Sun family, and I can't always think about my mother's family, saying that my mother has not taught me well, she wants to teach me how to be the daughter-in-law of the Sun family, and she must set rules for me. I was unhappy at first, but Yaozu said that he wanted to live with me for the rest of his life, let me bear with it, as long as his mother is happy, we can live happily for a lifetime. - I believed it, and I endured it, and then everyone was happy......" Du Hengxue's voice lowered.

Du Hengshuang sneered in her heart, stroked Du Hengxue's cheek and said, "They really sacrificed you to make their whole family happy." - That Sun Yaozu really doesn't have a backache when he stands and talks. Why can't he bear it? I want you to bear with it. ”

Du Hengxue smiled. put his head in Du Hengshuang's arms, and said softly: "Sister, don't be angry, sister is going to be angry, I won't say it." ”

Du Hengshuang couldn't, so he had to say: "Sister is not angry, sister is not worth it for Xue'er." ”

Du Hengxue continued: "At first, my mother-in-law said that she would teach me to do housework. I thought, to be a daughter-in-law, these things do have to be done. I sincerely learned from her. She doesn't know much. It's just lighting a fire, cooking, choosing vegetables, cleaning, and I'll be able to do it in one day. Later, I started to figure out how to make a delicious dish, and now I can make many delicious dishes by putting all the ingredients together. There are also housework, tidying up, and cleaning at home. I do everything I can. Mother-in-law is very picky. He loves the clean. If there's a little dust in the house, she's going to be upset. If she is not happy, Yaozu is not happy. In order to make Yaozu happy, and also to make his mother-in-law comfortable. I carry a rag in my hand all day long, and I wipe it wherever I go. Sister, you see, that's how my hands were broken. ”

Du Hengxue raised her hands to show Du Hengshuang.

Du Hengshuang endured and endured, so she didn't shed tears, but comforted her: "It's okay, we can raise our hands again." ”

Du Hengxue nodded, "I know." I don't care. I just can't understand why I said it so well at the beginning, as long as I do all these things, they will be happy, and Yaozu will happily live with me for the rest of his life. But I did what I promised, and they forgot what they had promised me. ”

Du Hengxue raised her head and looked at Du Hengshuang in confusion, with a pair of big black and white eyes on her palm-sized face, she could see the reflection of people clearly.

"You finally get it? Why didn't you see these things before? Du Hengshuang asked with a smile.

Du Hengxue sighed faintly, "It's a matter of knowing books." Her pregnancy, like an arrow, pierced the dream I had woven for myself. Sister, I know that you said that Zhishu is a cheap book, and her children will not affect me. But I just feel uncomfortable in my heart, and I just can't get over this hurdle. As soon as I thought that Yaozu and Zhishu had done the same things he had done to me, I wanted to vomit ......" Saying that, Du Hengxue really vomited.

Du Hengshuang was startled, and he couldn't wait to call Zhu Susu to come over to check his pulse.

Du Hengxue got up and went to the bathroom to clean her face, rinsed her mouth before coming out, and smiled shyly at Du Hengshuang: "Sister, don't be afraid, I'm not pregnant." I'm having a little life on me. ”

Du Hengshuang touched his face and laughed at himself: "Is my worry so obvious? ”

Du Hengxue smiled, "It's almost like writing two words on your face." The tone of her voice had become relaxed, and sure enough, after confiding, her burden was slowly put down.

Even if she has deep feelings for Sun Yaozu, after a year of wear, and Zhishu's pregnancy, which is the last straw on the camel's back, there is not much left of those so-called affections.

Feelings can be cultivated or consumed.

No one can ask for what another person wants, and no one can ask the other person to pay forever and not want to pay any price.

Du Hengshuang sighed again. Her sister is as clear and transparent as crystal, she is too simple, too kind, it is her own fault, she protects her too well, and forgets to teach her what it means to know people and faces.

Du Hengxue sat down, leaned on Du Hengshuang's arms, looked at the sky outside the window, and said faintly: "Sister, I've been thinking about what kind of person is a good person these days." ”

"Do you understand?"

Du Hengxue whispered: "Yaozu said a lot of nice things, but everything he did made me miserable and sad. As for Second Brother Xu, he said a lot of ugly things, but everything he did was for my good, and he never hurt me. I used to think that Second Brother Xu was a bad guy, the worst bad guy in the world. But now that I compare myself with Yaozu, I realize that he is actually a good person, but he can't speak......"

Du Hengshuang was suffocated, "Why did you suddenly think of Second Brother Xu?" ”

Du Hengxue said: "It's just an analogy." I think I'm looking at the wrong person. "I saw the bad guys wrong, and I saw the bad guys wrong.

She couldn't have been more wrong.

"Sister, am I not doing well enough? So they are still unhappy and do not even keep their promises? Is it my fault? Am I cheap and stupid? Du Hengxue asked eagerly.

At that time, she really regarded Sun Yaozu's words as a holy decree, and she felt right about everything he said, even if Sun Yaozu said that they should send the entire Du family over, Du Hengxue would feel that it made sense, and would go back to find Fang Yuniang to make trouble.

Du Hengshuang gently stroked Du Hengxue's bun and said gently: "Xue'er, these things have passed. It doesn't matter if you are frustrated, the key is that after being frustrated, you must know how to reflect, know where you are wrong, and ensure that you do not make the same mistake in the future. Knowing that mistakes can be corrected, and good is great. If you can think of the differences between these people and find out what you have made mistakes, my sister will be very happy. Our Xue'er has been a kind and smart girl since she was a child, and my sister has always been proud of you. The Sun family frustrated you, it was they who were wrong, not that you were bad. Don't put the blame for the mistakes and sins of others on yourself. ”

"Really?" Du Hengxue has always been most convinced of Du Hengshuang's words, and at this time, listening to her explain her like this, her pale face finally slowly regained its former look.

……

Thinking of this scene last night, Du Hengshuang ordered: "Let them in." Then he ordered her to change her clothes.

Sun Xu and Zhishu followed the subordinates of the Hou Mansion to sit in the green silk mule cart all the way, looking at the wealth and wealth in the Hou Mansion, the more they went inside, the more they felt overwhelmed.

Zhishu's face is full of envy, and he can't hide it.

Seeing such a Hou mansion, and thinking about their second small mansion in Xuanyi Fang, it is like a dog kennel, no wonder the young lady is reluctant to go home......

Sun Xu's originally straight waist slowly bent down.

When the two of them came to the main courtyard in the inner courtyard of the Hou Mansion, they saw a beautiful lady sitting on the top surrounded by beads and covered in silk and satin, and Sun Xu's knees were so weak that she almost knelt down.
