Time flies by like a horse.

In the blink of an eye, it was the autumn of the fifth year of the great cause.

Lee House.

Recently, there has been chaos up and down the Li Mansion. For no other reason, Li Yuan's friend, Changsun Sheng, the general of the Right Xiaowei, finally died overnight because he couldn't afford to be sick.

When Li Yuan heard this mourning news, he couldn't afford to be sick immediately, and he didn't eat water and rice for a few days, so he only mourned with Mrs. Dou and remembered his old friend.

Fortunately, he is already 20 years old, and he has a successful academic degree and is quite fatherly.

Today is the seventh night of Duke Sheng's return, although Li Yuan is unwell, he still holds on, participates in the funeral of his old friend, and says that he will send this lifelong friend on the last journey.

Although Mrs. Dou was worried, she also knew that if this trip failed, she would definitely become a husband for the rest of her life, so she simply ordered her eldest son Jiancheng to accompany her husband, and she must take care of it.

"Built, you go, it's good to comfort your high mother, she is also pitiful, she is a princess-like nobleman, she met such a fierce and jealous lady, and she is willing to be your uncle's second wife...... Alas, in short, comfort thy mother and thy brother and sister, and tell them that if any thing is done, let me come up to our house, though I have been sent a man. But with me, I will not teach the great woman to deceive them. You know what? "Mrs. Dou, who was famous all over the world back then, although she is forty years old, is still bright and beautiful. While packing up the clothes for the eldest son, he gently instructed the child.

Jiancheng nodded and said, "Mother rest assured, son knows." ”

Standing in front of the door and watching her eldest son leave, Mrs. Dou couldn't help frowning lightly and sighing slightly.

On the one hand, Peng, who accompanied her to marry from her mother's family and was a nurse for several children, was sewing clothes for Shimin, who was already ten years old, when she heard her little lady sighing, she couldn't help but look up and ask: "Why is the lady sighing?" ”

"I just pity that Gao. Even if I say this, I'm just afraid of ......" Mrs. Dou shook her head lightly, frowned slightly, and looked back at the second son Shimin who was practicing calligraphy in the house in the company of the nurse and the boy Fujian: "I'm afraid that after this thing is over, the two poor children of the auxiliary machine and Guanyin will be driven out of the house by his brother." ”

Peng hesitated: "Is the lady too worried?" After all, His Majesty has ordered the fourth son of the eldest grandson to become the heir (inherit the family business)! ”

"The will of the emperor is only the will of the emperor." When Mrs. Dou mentioned the current saint, she looked indifferent, slowly returned to Shimin's side, sat down, reached out to hold the child's hand, and corrected his mistake: "This is a family matter, even if it is the Son of Heaven, he cannot interfere in other people's family affairs. ”

"Lady, even if it is the order of the Son of Heaven, you can't manage family affairs. But those four sons, every time I look at them, when it comes to wisdom and wisdom, I am afraid that they are more than a decade stronger than his father. It may not be ......" Peng still felt that his master seemed to be too worried.

Hearing the talk about his good brother, Shimin couldn't help but stop his pen slightly, and pricked up his ears to listen to his mother and nurse.

Mrs. Dou didn't notice anything unusual about her son, but she was just worried about her close friend Mrs. Gao: "No matter how smart the auxiliary machine is, after all, he is only two teenage children." An Ye (the third brother of the eldest grandson Wuji) is a non-professional thing, but he is more than ten years older than the auxiliary machine. Those fox friends and dog friends around me are all family backgrounds...... Alas...... Pity those two children. ”

"If Anye dares to bully the auxiliary machine, I will blow his head off and kick out his teeth! Look how he bullies! "Guanyin doesn't know the people, but the auxiliary machine is his good buddy. As soon as he heard that his brother was in trouble, the little Shimin immediately said angrily.

When the son said this, Mrs. Dou and the nurse Peng were taken aback. Then he reprimanded him, saying that he did not write well, and listened to the gossip of adults.

The people knew that they were wrong, so they hung their heads and made amends. Mrs. Dou looked at his little face because of anger, stained with a few points of ink, which was really cute, so she reached out to wipe it with him, and while wiping, she said:

"However, although my son said that he should not listen to adults, this is a good thing. Didn't my son learn this skill from his father and brother just to protect the person he loved the most? The auxiliary machine is so close to you on weekdays, but he never tells you about family affairs, just because he is afraid that you will worry, and he is even more afraid that you will get into trouble for him. This kind of brotherhood is only the same as your eldest brother. You must be kind to him in the future. ”

Shimin was originally discouraged, but when he heard his mother's words, of course he was happy and hurriedly nodded. So I looked forward even more to the fact that my brother Jiancheng could come back early and bring back the news of his friends.

It was not until the second watch that the people waited for their angry father and brother.

As soon as she entered the house, Mrs. Dou noticed that her husband and son were not right, and when she was about to call the nurse to take the people to rest, Li Yuan was already so angry that she slapped the corner table and scolded: "This bastard thing! Brother Sheng I is wise, why did they put up such a bastard thing! ”

Mrs. Dou saw that her husband was angry, and the people of the world refused to leave, so she just thought about it: the child is ten years old, and he should also experience some human feelings, so she said: "Husband, don't be angry, Peng, you go and make tea." ”

The nurse went as promised. Li Yuan just snorted angrily, but Jiancheng spoke first: "Mother, don't blame my father for being angry. Even if it is built, he thinks that the eldest grandson and the third brother are too ridiculous! ”

As soon as Mrs. Dou heard this, she had a plan in her heart, sat down, watched the Peng family personally serve the tea, first to Li Yuan, and then to the completion of the service, and then said: "The husband is so angry, I'm just afraid of ...... It's the thing that doesn't fight for it, saying that he wants to drive his young siblings out of the eldest grandson's mansion, right? ”

Li Yuan had just delivered the tea bowl to his lips, and was a little surprised: "How can Madame be so well-informed?" ”

Mrs. Dou smiled, bright and beautiful, stretched out her hand and hugged the people who were about to be entangled in her arms, and said with a smile: "What is Anye, and what kind of virtue is his crazy mother, who doesn't know in this court, who doesn't know?" An Ye originally had the intention of inheriting the heir. But although his biological mother is an eldest woman and her status is not low, she is not as noble as Mrs. Gao, virtuous and courteous, even the current emperor, and he is extremely displeased with his biological mother; Second, he himself is absurd, drunk, and has no courage or strategy. How could the emperor let him inherit the heir? He had so much thought, but in the end, a holy decree came down empty, how could he tolerate those two poor children? ”

A few words were admired by everyone in the room. Li Yuan was even more grateful: "Mrs. Zhihui, Shude really doesn't know how many lifetimes of blessings he has accumulated to get Mrs. It's just ......" Thinking of the matter in the eldest grandson's mansion, Li Yuan frowned again.

Mrs. Dou comforted her husband: "It's okay, in fact, this Anye is not unfilial, but I think the above two children are very fond of heavy auxiliary machines and Guanyin." Moreover, the auxiliary machine's own uncle, Mr. Gao, is also a very sincere and loving person, he knew about his sister before, and he had to plead with his brother-in-law several times, and although he has six sons under his knees, he has not half a daughter, and he has loved his sister since he was a child. It's just that the child of Guanyin looks very much like her grandmother who was beautiful in the world back then, and she is gentle and gentle. Such a good child will inevitably attract the pursuit of all families. And Anye is not a weapon, I am afraid that I will regard my sister as a strange commodity to live in. ”

Li Yuan sighed: "Madam is really wise and wise. Na Anye, today he actually asked his young sister to marry Wang Shichong of Najiang in public! Just because the auxiliary machine and Guanyin refused to agree, he used the excuse to expel the two brothers and sisters from the house on the spot! What else do you say, although the auxiliary machine inherits the heir, but the business is under the control of his mother, and he can't allow the two brothers and sisters who disobey his mother's and brother's orders to stay at home! I'm so angry that Brother Chi is going to do it! If it hadn't been built and stopped by me, the beast would have been a good fight today! ”

When Peng heard this, he sneered: "Lady, I can teach you to guess correctly today." This beast really got the idea of his sister and wanted to sacrifice his young sister to the emperor! Master, the lady is still telling Ah Peng that this An Ye is afraid that she will betray her sister for the sake of her own honor. But today, although the son is not virtuous, he has to look at the faces of the eldest grandson and the Li family after all, and in the end, he can't directly ask for Guanyin. Therefore, Anye must first send Guanyin to Wang Shichong, the minister, and then Wang Shichong will be sent to the palace in a justifiable manner! Then again, sir, how could An Ye, a fool who only knows the fragrance of wine, set up such a scheme? How could Wang Shichong be willing to bear this big sin and offend the two of us? I'm afraid, it's still the idea of the one in Jiangdu! ”

Li Yuan was silent. Of course, he knew that since Guanyin was six years old at the birthday party of Changsun Sheng, when he amazed hundreds of families overnight, Emperor Yang Guang already had the idea of accepting this child...... Not to mention the poor child of Guanyin, the beloved wife in front of him, and Mrs. Gao, how can they not be coveted by the faint king? But fortunately, the Li family and the eldest grandson family are the ministers of the humerus after all, and even Yang Guang's faint monarch must be afraid of three points, so as to ensure the safety of his wife and daughter.

The more he thought about it, the more angry Li Yuan became, and then slapped down the chair handle and got up angrily: "No! Whatever you say, I also want to protect this poor brother and sister for Brother Sheng! ”

"Husband, you can say this, then Guanyin is the fiancée of our people, how can we say it?" Mrs. Dou reminded Li Yuan with a smile.

Li Yuan was stunned at first, and then his eyes lit up: "That's right! That's right! Alas, alas! Thankfully, Madame reminded me! Ha ha! For the husband, he forgot the words of marriage back then! The more he thought about it, the happier Li Yuan became, so he hugged Shimin and lifted him up again and again: "Not bad! Ha ha! Not bad! That Guanyin is my son's quasi-Jiao'e! In the back garden under the moon, Brother Sheng begged for the matchmaker in person, and Brother Chi testified with his own ears, and no one could rely on it! Ha ha! My son has such a wise and beautiful wife! Ha ha! It's a good thing, it's a great thing! Come on, quickly get pen and ink red paper! I'm going to write an eight-character marriage book myself, and I'll send it to Gaofu tomorrow! ”

Mrs. Dou was afraid that her husband would fall the people, so she hurriedly got up and took the child away, and said with a smile: "The older you get, the more ridiculous it is!" How can you go to Gaofu for this matter? If the marriage certificate is to be sent, it will naturally be sent to the child's uncle. Although your uncle is noble, you can't jump away from other people's uncles! Besides, what are you waiting for tomorrow? Doesn't the husband hear the long night and dream a lot? Come here, since it is for my son to ask for marriage, then he should be the mother of the concubine, Zhu Mo is the mother, and the husband is the father, and the book is eight characters! Apeng! Take the red clay and sprinkle the gold paper! I want to work with my husband to set this good family business for my children and the people! ”
