Chapter 76: Rejection
Liu Jinsong smiled easily, but King Wu still did not relax, his eyes never left Liu Jinsong's face, Liu Jinsong puffed up his chest, and when he was about to say a few more words, King Wu had already lowered his eyes and said softly: "Actually, I know, I can't do it." ”
After finishing speaking, King Wu didn't speak, Liu Jinsong could only feel the sadness in King Wu's words, and couldn't feel anything else, Liu Jinsong didn't dare to ask, just waited there quietly. The sun began to set up, and the moon was about to rise when the cry of a child could be heard in the courtyard not far away. was born, Liu Jinsong and King Wu both looked at the courtyard at the same time, Liu Jinsong wanted to run away, then thought of King Wu, and hurriedly pushed King Wu to the courtyard.
Liu Jinsong was anxious, and he didn't push as steadily as usual, but King Wu didn't say a word, holding the armrest of the wheelchair with his hand, and his eyes showed expectation, in this world, what is more hopeful than the arrival of a new life?
As soon as he arrived at the gate of the small courtyard, the Lin family had already walked out, and when he saw King Wu, he hurriedly said: "I was about to go to say hello to the prince, you have added a granddaughter, and the child is beautiful!" King Wu added a granddaughter, and he had a daughter, Liu Jinsong hurriedly handed over the wheelchair to the Lin family: "Please also ask Aunt Lin to take care of the prince!" ”
After finishing speaking, he hurriedly rushed into the small courtyard, Lin looked at Liu Jinsong's back, and frowned slightly: "I didn't expect the horse to be so stable on weekdays, and I forgot the rules at this time!" ”
"This is also normal, which proves that he treats my daughter with deep affection!" King Wu's words made the Lin family slightly stunned, and then the Lin family smiled: "Yes, it's the concubine who lost her words!" "The Lin family's prudence and politeness, King Wu knows it, but even if he knows it again, this heart can't be given to her. Looking at the expectation in Lin's eyes, King Wu only smiled lightly at her: "This is a big happy event in the house, and it must be lively." ”
"The concubine knows!" Lin can't say that there is no disappointment in his heart, but the number of disappointments has increased, and gradually, he doesn't care. In this life, it actually goes by very quickly. Lin's eyebrows frowned slightly, and then he smiled, people, be content, otherwise, how will you live this day?
"This child is really like me!" Liu Jinsong held his daughter in his arms and said proudly to Yulin who was lying on the bed. The blood-stained white cloth and bed sheets were all taken away, and there was only a faint smell of blood in the room, not as it used to be. Yulin has also changed her clothes again, and the old grandmothers let Liu Jinsong step in, otherwise, Liu Jinsong can only hold the child outside and can't talk to Yulin.
Seeing that Yulin only smiled and didn't speak, Liu Jinsong sat down beside her: "Look, this kid has such a straight nose, it's the same as mine, and his eyebrows are also very thick, and there are ......."
"If you go on, you will say that you are the most beautiful man in the world!" Yulin looked at her husband and pursed her lips and smiled, and reached out to take her daughter's hand: "You say, what should we name her?" ”
Liu Jinsong stretched out his hand and wrapped his wife and daughter's hands in the palm of his hand before saying: "When she was born, the moon just rose, so let's call Wangshu!" "Wangshu, the legendary emperor who drove the car to the moon. Yulin couldn't help laughing: "You want our daughter to be a royal?" ”
No, Liu Jinsong shook his head: "I think that if our daughter can bring the moon, then our home will always be gentle and quiet!" "It's so good, Yulin smiled, looked down at her daughter, the newborn didn't know what was going on, she was just sleeping, and she didn't know how to click her mouth in her sleep.
Xiao Wangshu, you will bring a bright moon, let our home, gentle and quiet. Yulin pulled her daughter's little hand and kissed it slightly, for fear that if the kiss was too heavy, it would wear out the delicate skin. Liu Jinsong hugged his wife and daughter, and the gentleness and tranquility of this home were for everyone to pay.
Since King Wu said that it would be lively and lively, there were countless guests on the day of washing, and only a few people could enter Yulin's room, and naturally there were gifts in the palace, and a basin full of dazzling gold and silver jewelry. This made Wen Po smile, such an errand is enough to have enough food and clothing for a lifetime.
Wash the three are so lively, when the moon is full, it is even more lively, Yulin took a bath, changed into clothes and came out with the child. The palace has its own secret method of regulating the body, and Yulin does not have to breastfeed her daughter, although she is not as slim as before pregnancy, her body has recovered a lot.
The eldest princess of Yunmeng came to the mansion of Qiu Ruwan, she saluted Yulin as usual and went to see Liu Wangshu, Xiao Wangshu is no longer as red as when she was first born, but white and tender, and she laughs when she sees people. This made Qiu Ruwan very happy, seeing that she was very skilled in holding the child, Yulin couldn't help but smile and asked: "Do you want to come to the house and often hug your little cousin?" ”
Qiu Ruwan nodded, and then looked at Xiao Wangshu: "I'm your cousin, I want to call my cousin!" Yulin nodded Qiu Ruwan's forehead: "Even your third sister can only say a few words, not to mention the doll that is only a full moon." Wait for her to call you cousin, wait! ”
"Mother said, the third sister is not as smart as me!" Qiu Ruwan sighed, and a depression that did not match her age appeared on her face. An eleven-year-old girl, born like this, wants to be in another family, even if she is precocious, she will not be depressed from time to time.
Thinking of her third aunt, Yulin didn't have anything else to say, and patted Qiu Ruwan's hand: "Hengzhu, you are getting older now, your mother wants to come now, she just wants to give birth to a son, and she will ...... later."
"Cousin Yurong said that in the future, my marriage, Cousin Yurong will help me see each other!" Qiu Ruwan said, her face couldn't help but blush, and she said a little awkwardly: "I know I shouldn't trouble Cousin Yurong anymore, but it's ......."
"It's all troublesome, what else are you talking about?" The voice of the princess of Qin Guo had already come, and then she held Xiao Wangshu in her arms, and touched her nose affectionately: "Xiao Shu'er, I am your eldest cousin, do you know me?" ”
Xiao Wangshu was still in the middle of being unable to distinguish between people, but he just thought that the princess of Qin Guo's action was particularly funny, and giggled. Princess Qin patted Qiu Ruwan's hand: "You're okay, you have to teach your two younger sisters well, otherwise, like your mother, I'm just afraid of ......"
Before the princess of Qin Guo finished speaking, Qiu Ruwan already understood, and nodded to the princess of Qin Guo: "Cousin Yurong, I know that I will definitely teach my sisters well." Saying that, Qiu Ruwan went to break her fingers: "I am eleven years old this year, and when I get married at the age of eighteen, my little sister will be eight years old, and I have learned a lot at that time." ”
That's right, Princess Qin reached out and rubbed Qiu Ruwan's hair, and Qiu Ruwan smiled a little embarrassedly. Yulin looked down at her daughter, such a well-behaved and cute little lump of meat, how could she not love her because she was not a son? I can't give up, and I will never give up.
Yulin took her daughter in her arms and kissed her again, and the maid came in and reported: "Mrs. Wu is here!" ”
On this kind of day, Mrs. Wu will definitely come, Yulin knows that Mrs. Wu is here, but she is afraid that she will not only come to congratulate herself, but also bring news of Yang Molan, but Yulin is somehow a little scared.
Xiao Wangshu was hugged a little tightly by his mother, and let out a small cry impatiently. Yulin hurriedly let her go and said to the maid, "Please come in, Mrs. Wu." The maid should have stepped back, Mrs. Wu soon came, and after saluting everyone, Mrs. Wu said to Yulin: "Princess Yongle has added a new daughter, a small congratulatory gift, not a tribute!" ”
What Mrs. Wu gave was still such a small box, and Yulin ordered the maid to take it and thank her. Mrs. Wu saw that Yulin didn't open the box, and she wasn't in a hurry, but just looked at Yulin: "I wonder if the concubine can hold the child?" ”
This request is not excessive, Yulin handed the child in her hand to Mrs. Wu, Mrs. Wu carefully took the swaddling clothes, looked at Xiao Wangshu who was spitting bubbles with round eyes, and couldn't help but have tears in the corners of her eyes, and forced her tears to say: "This child is a little similar to the princess when she was born." At that time, the princess also loved herself and played with bubbles with herself. It's ...... as soon as you play"
Mrs. Wu's voice then stopped, what is the point of saying this, even if she has lied for so many years, she treats Yulin sincerely. Looking at Yulin's indifferent treatment, Mrs. Wu knew that she couldn't make up for it, but she wouldn't regret it.
Picking up her thoughts, Mrs. Wu hugged Xiao Wangshu to Yulin, and said with a smile: "This child will definitely have a smooth life and never be worry-free!" ”
Yu Lin looked down at her daughter, Xiao Wangshu's eyes were round and bright, Yu Lin lovingly tightened her daughter's swaddling clothes, and then looked at Mrs. Wu: "Mrs. Cheng Jiyan!" ”
This expected word did not make Mrs. Wu's expression change in the slightest, she saluted Yulin, and withdrew. Qiu Ruwan asked Yulin curiously: "Cousin, I heard rumors from people in Beijing that Xu Zhi'an, who was Tanhua Xu, turned out to be Mrs. Wu's aunt and nephew, because he divorced, you didn't want to see Mrs. Wu, but is it true?" ”
"How old are you to care about that?" Yulin touched Qiu Ruwan's face: "You shouldn't think about this, live a good life." Qiu Ruwan stuck out her tongue slightly, and the princess of Qin patted Qiu Ruwan's head, these things are intertwined and complicated, the mother-daughter relationship, the master-servant relationship, are all intertwined, and people can't hate it, and love can't it. Only the passage of time can be slowly smoothed.
"Don't waste all these gifts that our daughter received, put them away, and in the future, you can make a dowry for our daughter!" Liu Jinsong drank two glasses of wine at the banquet today, afraid that the wine would smoke his daughter, so he went to take a bath and change clothes first, and then came to see his daughter.
"Is there a case like you? The gift that my daughter received when she was full moon was going to be taken out as a dowry? Yulin smiled and blamed Liu Jinsong, Liu Jinsong's hand was on his wife's shoulder: "Isn't this a common thing?" There is also a custom in Jiangnan that when the daughter is full moon, she makes good wine and buries it in the ground, and waits for the day of her daughter's marriage, which is the daughter's wedding wine. Called Daughter Red. If they can make wine, then we can also prepare a dowry for our daughter when she is full moon! ”
"It's really more and more, if it's really a dowry when the moon is full, then when you leave the cabinet, you don't know how much treasury to use to prepare the dowry!" Yulin slapped her husband's hand on her shoulder, and looked at her daughter in the cradle, the more she looked, this was her own daughter, her own flesh and bones.
Liu Jinsong wanted to speak again, but the maid was already holding a box over: "Princess, this is a congratulatory gift from Mrs. Wu, you ......" According to the custom, Yulin will put away the things sent by Mrs. Wu, instead of putting them aside.
"I forgot, let's send it in!" Yulin let out a sigh of relief and opened the box after the maid left. There is nothing unusual about the things inside, the gold lock and gold bracelet are ordinary congratulatory gifts.
Liu Jinsong looked at the disappointment that flashed on Yulin's face, and hugged her shoulder: "Are you thinking, is this congratulatory gift prepared by her, so she will be disappointed!" Yulin hummed and put the box away: "Yes, I thought she would prepare a gift!" ”
"Perhaps, she won't know!" Liu Jinsong's conjecture made Yulin shake her head: "No, she knows, she and Mrs. Wu have always had correspondence!" ”
"What about her and you?" Is this really not, Yulin's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and Liu Jinsong held Yulin's hand: "Back and forth, it's each other's, if you don't write to her, how does she know that you want her letter?" ”
"However, it was she who gave up ...... first" Yu Lin rushed out, unexpectedly seeing the disapproval on Liu Jinsong's face, Yu Lin's words were still finished: "It was she who gave up me!" ”
Besides, Yulin thought for a while, and then said, "Your father, don't you also refuse to forgive?" ”
"Yulin, it's different, my father, and your mother, the reason why they are not around is completely different!" These words almost touched Liu Jinsong's scales, and his brows furrowed. Yulin understood what she said wrong, and reached out to pull Liu Jinsong's sleeve: "I'm sorry, it's me who lost my voice, I shouldn't use this as an analogy." However, I can understand, but I can't go," forgive the two words Yulin still can't say.
Liu Jinsong hugged his wife in his arms: "I understand what you mean, it's not that you should forgive at once, but take your time!" Just like normal people. Yulin leaned on her husband's arms, that irritability slowly disappeared, all the blame, all the unforgiveness, just because the other party is in your heart, more than everyone in the world. Just because the other party is so irreplaceable in your heart. That's why it's unforgivable, and that's why you can't face it!
Yulin looked at Liu Jinsong: "I think, I understand." Liu Jinsong's hand touched his wife's eyebrows: "I don't want you to be sad about this matter all the time, pretending to be happy." Yulin, you are my wife, I wish you eternal happiness, may you always be happy! ”
If these words are love words, I also love to listen to them, Yulin smiled lightly at Liu Jinsong, yes, there is nothing terrible, many things, what should be faced must be faced.
"Mother, Aunt Wu in the capital has a letter for you!" Xu Zhijiao ran into the house, holding the letter in her hand and shouting at Yang Molan. Yang Molan put down the tea in her hand and looked at her daughter with a frown: "It's a sixteen-year-old girl, why are you still like this." You must know that after you came to Guizhou, you became more and more wild. I should let you stay in the capital and be with your Aunt Wu! ”
I don't want it. Xu Zhijiao stuck out her tongue and handed the letter to Yang Molan, grabbed her arm and began to coquetry: "Mother, I am your little baby, are you willing to do it?" Yang Molan pinched her daughter's face: "It's sixteen, it's time to get married." ”
Xu Zhijiao still wanted to be coquettish, Yang Molan had already opened the letter, and when she saw the somewhat unfamiliar handwriting on the letterhead, Yang Molan's heart jumped first, and then she folded the letter again.
"Mother, don't you believe it?" Xu Zhijiao was so strange, Xu Zhi'an had already walked in, stretched out his hand and patted his sister's head: "You, you only know how to be naughty, how can you look like a girl!" ”
"Brother, what you said is not right, Alan said, she thinks I am sven, not naughty at all, and said, the daughters of the Han family are like this, will they be a little uncomfortable? Brother, do you think Alan will be my sister-in-law? The sister's words made Xu Zhi'an smile: "Miss Alan really becomes your sister-in-law, then we will never be able to return to our hometown, and you can only marry a Miao here, are you willing?" ”
"I do, I do!" Xu Zhijiao was already nodding there: "There are more constraints in my hometown than here, and there are ......"
"Jiao'er, you go to the stove room to boil some hot water, I'll see how this tea is compared to the tea in my hometown!" Yang Molan opened her mouth to let Xu Zhijiao go out, and Xu Zhijiao rushed out although she felt strange.
"Mother, we may be in Guizhou for many years, you better not be too restrained sister!" Although it was disgusting to talk to her sister, but after turning her back on her sister, Xu Zhian pleaded for her sister again, but Yang Molan ignored her son and just opened the letter: "The princess wrote to me!" ”
Princess? Which princess, Xu Zhi'an's brows furrowed: "Princess Yongle?" Yang Molan nodded, and then sighed: "I never knew that I could still receive a letter from the princess if I lived for a day, in fact, she didn't blame me, I myself was in my heart, and I blamed myself over and over again." An'er, do you think that my decision is too self-deceptive? ”
"Mother!" Xu Zhian stretched out his hand and patted his mother's hand: "You don't have to resent yourself, what you want to say is just to make people!" "Yes, pushing for creation is the most commonplace. However, she is still a mother. Even if she knows that her daughter is surrounded by her biological father, even if she knows that she will not be bullied, her mother's heart will still rise from time to time, and in the middle of the night, she will push her clothes and sit up, always asking herself over and over again, whether it is wrong or right to do this.
"Mother, the hot water has been boiled. Brother, Miss Alain is looking for you again! Xu Zhijiao's head was exposed in the door frame, and the smile on his face was still so sweet, Xu Zhi'an's face couldn't help but blush slightly, and he said to his sister: "You, haode doesn't learn all the bad things, don't you know that men and women can't accept it?" ”
"What does it mean that men and women are not clear?" Alan's voice has already sounded, she is a Miao girl, the silver jewelry on her body is jingling when she walks, and the smile on her face is so bright, there is no haze at all.
Xu Zhi'an admitted that he was not attracted by Alain, but then other thoughts came to him, and he also knew about the things in the capital over the years, and knew that many things had changed, and he would not really stay in Guizhou in his life. Rather than this, it is better to cut off the love thread at this time, so as not to disappoint Alain.
"You speak, do you mean that you Han men are all twisted like that?" Alan greeted Yang Molan and looked at Xu Zhi'an.
Xu Zhi'an's face turned even redder, and Xu Zhijiao had already screamed: "The water is boiled, mother, I'll go get water to make tea!" Xu Zhijiao rushed away, Alan still looked at Xu Zhi'an, he was so good-looking, and he knew so much, unlike those who read, he couldn't even hold a hoe, but he could go up and down the mountain and down the river with himself, what to say to inspect the water and soil, and understand Li Shu. Well, I don't know what he wants to do, but liking is liking, and looking at him like this, I feel that the joy in my heart has overflowed.
"Sister Alain, you can have a cup of tea. This is my mother's picking, she also said, I didn't expect Guizhou to have good tea. He also said that he didn't know if the tea in Guizhou could be planted back to his hometown, and he also said......"
"Jiao'er, you speak slowly. No one will rob you! Yang Molan interrupted her daughter's chatter, and then said to Alain: "Jiao'er children's family, don't be sensible, this tea is the most important country, even if it is transplanted, it may not be able to grow live!" ”
"Mother, why do you keep saying that I am a child? I'm a year younger than Sister Alain, no, just ten months younger! Xu Zhijiao stretched out his hand and counted there, Alan took a sip of tea, and called out: "We also drink tea, but the tea that weishenme drinks is not like what my aunt makes, it has a fragrance." It was a little bitter at first, but I didn't feel bitter after drinking! ”
"Miss Alain, you see, just drinking tea can tell that it is a different person, let alone something else? You Miao people, born and raised in Zi, like the tea tree, may not be able to live if you move to other places. We, the Han people, are also relocated to the land! Yang Molan said tactfully, but Alan understood, she looked at Xu Zhi'an, and there were tears in her eyes: "What does Auntie's words mean?" Am I not worthy of you? ”
Xu Zhi'an didn't expect his mother to be much more decisive than himself, and opened his mouth to refuse for himself, looking at Alain's sadness, Xu Zhi'an felt that his heart was also beginning to break, but he still nodded: "No, what my mother means, it's not that you are not worthy of me, but that we are not suitable, just like if you want to move the tea trees in Guizhou to the south of the Yangtze River, and don't let you drink tea, you don't like it." It's not a matter of deserving or not, it's that you and I just met by chance, not ......"
Four words, Xu Zhi'an looked at Alain's eyes, these eyes are very beautiful, beautiful and touching, facing such a beautiful pair of eyes, saying decisive words, Xu Zhi'an felt that his heart was hurting, but the long pain was better than the short pain, Xu Zhi'an glanced at Alan again, and said the four words zuihou: "No, not forever!" ”
The four words "forever and forever" were originally very beautiful, but Alan immediately had tears in his eyes, and then said: "No, I don't believe it, you can do it, you can stay here!" ”
"I'm an official of the imperial court, I'm here today, and I don't know where tomorrow, I'm sorry, Alain!" After Xu Zhi'an finished speaking, Alan was already full of disbelief, and then shook his head desperately: "No, no, you ......"
"Miss Alain, I thank you for your infatuation with Xiao'er, but the marriage in this world depends on heaven. You and Xiao'er are destined to meet each other but not to stay together! ”
