Guo's house was happy, and the banquet was held until the lights were on, and the guests were able to disperse.

For a time, the mess of the courtyard and the busy figures of the subordinates were left.

Taking advantage of Xiuxiu and Zhenniang in the courtyard, they commanded their subordinates to clean up, Guo Ye hugged his daughter Xiao Guo Xiang and accompanied the old lady back to the room, and accompanied the old lady to chat.

In the old lady's room, Guo Ye held Xiao Guo Xiang on his legs, teasing his daughter and giggling, while pricking up his ears to listen to the old lady's nagging.

There were only the old lady and Guo Ye in the house, plus a little Guo Xiang, and no one else.

At this time, the old lady also put away the smile she had on her face when she was outside to the guests, but put her dragon head cane on the ground with a stiff face, and scolded: "You unfilial obstacle, this time it is the blessing of the ancestors of the Guo family to let you come back alive, do you want the white-haired person to send the black-haired person?" ”

was taken aback by the old lady's sudden come, Guo Yewei was really taken aback, and immediately hugged Xiao Guo Xiang and stood up, and said with a smile: "Mother, my son knows that he is wrong, hehe, if you don't take it as an example, you must not take it as an example." Am I not coming back? A false alarm, your old man is discouraged. ”

Obviously, the old lady didn't plan to let go of Guo Ye so easily, ignored his hippie smile, and continued to scold: "Do you know where you did wrong this time?" ”

Guo Ye was depressed for a while, it seems that the old lady is determined to stage a drama of Sanniang's godson today.

So, he had to pretend to be his grandson and continue to coax: "Mother, you dissipate your anger, don't keep a face, be careful of getting angry." The child promises you that next time you will not be easily involved, okay? ”

Bang~

The old lady knocked the cane in her hand to the ground again, and said, "It seems that you still don't know what you are doing wrong." ”

Guo Ye hurriedly explained: "Mother, I really know that I was wrong. Next time, the child will not only not be easily involved in danger, but will also contact the family more to not let the mother worry. No, the child will go out as little as possible in the future, and accompany his mother in Chang'an, and our family will enjoy the joy of family, right? ”

"Bastard!"

The old lady scolded again, and shouted: "Are you the kind of unreasonable old fool who is a mother? As a courtier, it is a matter of duty to share worries for the king. The emperor asked you to go out of Chang'an on an errand, that is to trust you and look down on our old Guo family. If the emperor lets you go out of Chang'an, but my mother won't let you, won't this hinder my son's future? You bastard, since your father passed away, there has been less discipline, cough cough ......"

"Mother, mother......"

The old lady coughed angrily, Guo Ye was so frightened that the three souls lost their seven spirits, and hurriedly ran behind the old lady, stroked her back and said: "Mother, you dissipate your anger first, forgive the child for being stupid, what is wrong with me?" ”

"Humph!"

The old lady continued to pull her face and reprimanded: "Your mistake is that you didn't give birth to a boy for the Guo family." In case you really die on the battlefield for the Tang Dynasty on the Tubo side this time, the horse leather shroud, that is the glory of our Guo family, and this is the glory of the ancestors. If this is the case, the mother is a white-haired person who sends a black-haired person without regrets, and my son sacrifices his life for the country, this is loyalty, great loyalty. But just because you didn't leave an heir for the Guo family, you cut off the incense of our old Guo family, this is unfilial piety, great unfilial piety. ”

Belch......

Guo Ye was speechless for a moment, the old lady was not worried about her own life, but worried about the lack of successors of the Guo family?

For a while, Guo Ye's heart was really weird, he couldn't hold back a word for a long time, his throat and eyes seemed to be blocked by something, and he couldn't adapt for a long time.

He only sighed in his heart, mother, your old man can really see it, and he still thinks about loyalty and filial piety.

Seeing that Guo Ye didn't speak for a long time, the old lady slowly got up and turned around, pointed to the little Guo Xiang in Guo Ye's arms, and said softly: "Look at you, Xiuxiu has not come out so far, and Zhiru's stomach has not moved for a long time, only Zhenniang gave birth to such a female baby." If something really happens to you, the Guo family will be cut off. When the time comes, don't say that you are sorry for the ancestors of the Guo family, even when your mother came down a hundred years later, she didn't have the face to see your father's old fool. Maybe the old thing will be arguing with me again, alas...... Whining...... This unblessed old thing...... Woohoo......"

Saying this, the old lady hid her face and cried, crying and wailing, hearing Guo Ye's liver and intestines stirring, extremely sour.

Regarding the issue of children, Guo Ye really doesn't know what to say.

It stands to reason that since he can get Zhen Niang pregnant and give birth to Xiao Guo Xiang, it means that he is absolutely no problem in terms of fertility.

But why Xiuxiu and Zhiru have not moved, the chance of winning the lottery is the same as buying a lottery ticket, which is too.

He knew that Xiuxiu had also asked a famous doctor in Chang'an City to diagnose it before, and even his own father Chai Shao had invited the imperial doctor in the palace to Huo Guogong's mansion to diagnose Xiuxiu through his relationship, and the final result was all no problem, no different from a normal woman.

This is strange, Guo Ye knows very well in his heart that nothing under his knees has always been the thorn in Xiuxiu's heart, and if it goes on like this, something will inevitably happen.

Today, the old lady took advantage of the fact that she almost lost her life in Tubo to bring up the old matter, and it also stirred up the pimple in Guo Ye's heart, and he secretly made up his mind that when Sun Simiao came to Chang'an next year to treat the asthma and gas disease of the eldest grandson, he must invite this guy to the mansion to treat Xiuxiu and Zhiru, and prescribe a few medicines.

Just when Guo Ye was thinking about something, suddenly the old lady changed her words and proposed: "Da Lang, you have now been crowned the Duke of Pingyang County by the Holy Lord, if there is no male under your knees to inherit your future title, it will not be reasonable." And Xiuxiu hasn't given birth to a boy and a girl for you so far, so it's better to find someone to find someone to find and find you another concubine, right? It's good to let the Guo family have a good incense as soon as possible, and it is best to be able to spread the branches and leaves, and have many children and grandchildren, isn't it? ”

"What?"

Guo Ye was stunned by the old lady's east shot and west shot, and shouted in surprise: "Na...... Accept...... Conquest? ”

The old lady snorted and said categorically: "Yes, take a concubine!" ”

Guo Ye waved his hand hesitantly and refused: "Mother, this matter is not in a hurry, you see that I now have Xiuxiu, and Zhenniang, isn't it good?" ”

To be honest, now that she is taking a concubine at this time, Zhenniang has Xiao Guo Xiang, so she probably won't think much about anything else. But Xiuxiu and Zhiru are the most sensitive and least confused, if they blatantly take concubines, the most uncomfortable will be the two of them.

So, he rejected the old lady's intention again, shook his head and said: "Mother, let's wait a little longer, maybe the son Guanyin leaked our family, maybe Fuyou will come in a few days?" ”

There are too many shrewd old ladies, huh? Immediately saw the clue, heard Guo Ye's voice, snorted coldly, and said unhappily: "Are you worried about Xiuxiu and Zhiru?" You, a worthless obstacle, are also a county prince, a dignified scholar of the Ministry of Rites, and you are so afraid of the inside? No, my mother is in charge of this matter for you, if Xiuxiu wants to make trouble, you can let them come to find the old body, and let them hate me as an old woman. “

Where will Guo Ye accept this now, he has to dissuade the old lady when he opens his mouth, so that she can dispel this idea, otherwise it will really be a peaceful life at home.

At this moment, the little Guo Xiang in his arms cried, his voice was so loud that Guo Ye's scalp was numb for a while, good guy, the girl can cry like this?

So, he took the opportunity to stuff Xiao Guo Xiang into the old lady's arms and shouted: "Mother, hurry up, you put your granddaughter to sleep first, let the matter of concubine go first, the child has no time to toss these things for the time being." “

After that, he ran in the direction of the door, stopped a little at the door, turned his head and said with a smile: "Mother, I still have to enter the palace to face the saint tomorrow, so I won't accompany your old man first, and Zhenniang will come over and take the child back to the room to sleep." ”

After finishing speaking, he glanced at Xiao Guo Xiang crying in the old lady's arms, and secretly rejoiced in his heart, daughter, you really relieved your father and me, obediently.

In a flash, he snatched the door and fled.

……

……

After the night, Guo Ye woke up the next day.

After washing up, changing into court clothes, and briefly chatting with Xiuxiu and them for a few family routines, Guo Ye asked the people in the house to prepare a sedan chair and prepare to enter the palace.

Get off the sedan chair and enter the imperial city, and arrive at the gate of the palace, where Dong Shunshun's father-in-law was already waiting.

As soon as he saw Guo Ye, Shun's father-in-law stepped forward with a smile to say hello, and his mouth was open and closed, and Pingyang County was auspicious, and his words were sweet and greasy.

Then Guo Ye inquired with him, and it turned out that His Majesty Li Er asked Gonggong Shun to wait for him here early in the morning, in order to take him to the Ganlu Palace.

While leading Guo Ye into the palace to the Ganlu Palace, Father-in-law Shun kept revealing gossip to Guo Ye:

It turned out that His Majesty Li Er was so excited that he didn't sleep all night last night, staring at the map of the Tang Dynasty with his hands behind his back in Wangbei Pavilion and laughing to himself, until the sky was slightly bright, he slept for an hour.

Moreover, in the Ganlu Hall at this time, His Majesty Li Er had already asked the eldest grandson Empress to cook in person, and prepared a few exquisite side dishes that the queen mother was best at.

Guo Ye almost already understood, it seems that His Majesty Li Er has doubled his favor to himself today, and he can't help but use a family banquet to entertain himself, chat about those things in Zhu Guo, and let the queen mother cook and sit with him for lunch.

No wonder!

Guo Ye glanced at Father-in-law Shun who greeted him with a smile on the way, and said secretly, no wonder, I said that Father-in-law Shun's face today is as bright as the old chrysanthemums blooming in autumn, and His Majesty Li Er is in a very good mood!
