Dong's garden on the bank of the Baozi River because there was a big case of murder and burial of corpses, Dong Qichang and Dong Zu were often severely punished by the criminal law, one died and one was disabled, the mansion where Dong's father and son lived was considered to be bad feng shui, and no gentry was willing to buy, the pavilions were exquisite, the flowers and trees were luxuriant, and the Dong's garden was abandoned in this way, and became a place where foxtails haunted, and the prosperity and luxury of Songjiang Dong's family have become a thing of the past, which has nothing to say - Jinan's autumn dew liquor is quite fragrant, it is Zhang Lianfang's treasure for many years, Zhang Dai doesn't care so much, move out to drink, Zhang Dai doesn't know how to drink, two glasses of wine will be red-faced, Zhang Yuan has a lot of alcohol, but he is very restrained, and he only drinks two glasses and doesn't drink more, Zhang Dai is slightly drunk, homesick, shaking his fan and looking up at the dark night sky, and said leisurely: "Do you remember Zhang Donggu, the doorman of the eldest father?" ”

Zhang Yuan said: "The drunkard Zhang Donggu is also a famous man in Shanyin, and he is good at talking. ”

Zhang Dai said with a smile: "Yes, it is good, Rushi Wang Yan'an also likes to talk and laugh with Zhang Donggu, Zhang Donggu is most depressed under the eldest father's door is that he can't drink alcohol, because my father, my father, and my uncle don't like to drink, so he doesn't have to drink, he once said that my father's uncle 'meat is just eaten, whether it is delicious or not; I just don't eat the wine, I don't know if I will eat it', this sentence is quite rhymed, and it has the flavor of the Jin people, but these two sentences have been passed around, but they have become 'The Zhang brothers are given the surname strangely!'" Meat, whether it is good or bad, is just eaten; Regardless of whether the wine is good or bad, just don't eat it', it's a lot of fun, this is really a bit of gold into an iron hand. ”

Zhang Yuan said: "That said that the emperor summoned the ministers in Ciqing Palace, and Liu Guangfu of the imperial history was obviously praising the emperor and the prince for his filial piety, the emperor turned his ear back, and he didn't hear it clearly, and he relayed it to Wei Jinzhong, and I don't know how Wei Jinzhong distorted Liu Yushi's words, and the emperor was furious and almost killed." ”

Zhang Dai said: "Guan Ziyun 'can't be close to each other', but it is very easy to be close to each other, so it is said that the pillow wind is easy to blow, and the inner servant is easy to take power, isn't this how Liu Jin and Wang Zhenji are in power." ”

Zhang Dai didn't care about that Wei Jinzhong, and said about Zhang Donggu: "-- Zhang Donggu is good at wine and greedy for cups, his family is as poor as washing, and he is all up to his father to help, once he sued with the evil Shao, and the evil Shao falsely accused Donggu of being rich in gold, and Donggu hurriedly went to tell his father that 'Shaoxing people are hateful, and they lie in half, so they say that I am rich in gold', and the gold is in half, and there are 5,000 gold, and the eldest father often laughs. ”

Zhang Yuan said: "I haven't seen Zhang Donggu in the past few years-"

"Dead." Zhang Dai said: "I died the year before last, I was drunk, I went home drunk on the day of Layue, and I fell in front of the door, I don't know if I was drunk or frozen." He shook his head and got up to make tea.

Zhang Yuan followed to watch on the side, Zhang Dai took matters into his own hands, learned the tea art of Min Wenshui, and said: "I didn't drink Min Laozi tea in Jinling last year, it's a pity." ”

Zhang Yuan said with a smile: "At that time, the eldest brother was sleeping with Li Xueyi and Li Ko'er, who would have thought of Min Wenshui." ”

Zhang Dai laughed and said, "The rumors are hateful, but I, Zhang Zongzi, am not messing around." ”

Zhang Yuan smiled and arched his hand: "Admire, admire the eldest brother." ”

Unexpectedly, Zhang Dai laughed and said, "Jiezi, do you think I married Li Xueyi too?" ”

Zhang Yuan nodded and said, "Good idea, Sister Li Xueyi also has a mother in her forties, and it seems that they can also marry together." ”

Zhang Dai laughed and said: "It's true that you say this, that old bustard is Li Xueyi and Li Koer's mother, if I marry the two sisters, their old lady will naturally come with me to support my old age." ”

The two brothers tasted tea, go, and talked, and after the second watch, the two went back to their rooms to rest, and arranged for Zhang Yuan's accommodation to be the Xitang guest room, Mu Zhenzhen served Zhang Yuan to bathe, and then washed himself, squatting in the bathtub and rubbing his full porcelain body, while talking to Zhang Yuan:

"Young master, Sister Suzhi is pregnant—"

The weather at the beginning of July was still sultry, and the night was not cool, Zhang Yuan fanned the fan "whoosh", looked at Mu Zhenzhen in the bathtub, Mu Zhenzhen's hair was coiled, revealing a snow-white neck, and half of the chest, sometimes the waist was straight, and the twin peaks were all exposed, and the room seemed to rise two rounds of bright full moons - seeing Zhang Yuan look over, Mu Zhenzhen smiled shyly, and his body sank, well, the moon fell into the water.

"I didn't hear the eldest brother talk about it, what did Suzhi tell you?"

Zhang Yuan approached the tub and looked at the moon in the water.

Mu Zhenzhen squatted in the water, looked up at Zhang Yuan, and responded: "Yes, that's what I just said, it's been more than three months, and Sister Suzhi is both happy and worried." ”

Zhang Yuan said: "What are you worried about? ”

Mu Zhenzhen said: "Sister Suzhi wants to give birth to a girl, so that there is less trouble, because, because-"

Zhang Yuan said: "Because the eldest lady Liu is not very kind, isn't it?" ”

Mu Zhenzhen smiled softly: "Young Master knows everything. ”

Zhang Yuan suddenly thought of something at this time, and asked: "Really, you just said that Su Zhi is pregnant, why do you add the word 'all'?" ”

Mu Zhenzhen blushed and said, "It's nothing, the maid just said it casually." ”

Zhang Yuan asked: "Zhenzhen, have you felt any discomfort in your body recently?" ”

Mu Zhenzhen said: "No, the maid is in good health." ”

Zhang Yuan picked up the warm water in the bath bucket with one hand and poured it on Mu Zhenzhen's snow-white neck, and said: "I remember that there are five or six days at the end of the month and the beginning of each month, and I really can't go out with me, but today is the first day of the seventh month." ”

Mu Zhenzhen was stunned for a moment, originally sitting on his knees with his buttocks against his heels, but then sat up, his snow-white skin seemed to be plated with a layer of water glaze, and this layer of water glaze quickly retreated, condensed into a drop of water and slowly slipped down, Yufeng was angry, and the beads were round and jade-"Young master, what does this mean?" ”

Mu Zhenzhen asked in surprise and surprise, and her eyes shone brightly.

Zhang Yuan stretched out his hand to wipe away the few drops of water on the girl's towering jade peak that refused to slip down, and once he came, he refused to leave, and said: "Wait a few days and see, the biggest possibility is that you are also pregnant." ”

Mu Zhen couldn't help but be overjoyed, and couldn't help it if he wanted to, leaned over, put his face on Zhang Yuan's chest and abdomen, and his voice whimpered: "Really, as soon as the young master said this, the maid felt that it was true, and the maid felt a little sleepy these days, thinking it was because of the hot weather." ”

Zhang Yuan stroked Mu Zhenzhen's smooth back and said with a smile: "Let's not be too happy too early, it's common for this month to be a few days late." ”

Mu Zhenzhen said: "The maid has been very punctual since she came at the age of fourteen, but this time it is four days late. ”

Zhang Yuan said: "I'll take you to the doctor in a few days." ”

Mu Zhenzhen was so happy that her heart was fluttering, she felt that she must be pregnant, she didn't have the same worries as Su Zhi, the young grandmother had already given birth to the young master, she could give birth to a boy, and the young grandmother had a good temper, and said stupidly: "Young master, the maid wants to give birth to a boy." ”

Once a woman's mother's surname attacks, it is irresistible, Zhang Yuan said: "Okay, just give birth to a boy." ”

Mu Zhenzhen said: "When a boy grows up, he can also protect the young master." ”

Zhang Yuan smiled "hey": "What, did you give birth to a son just to be a bodyguard?" I just need you to protect by my side. ”

Mu Zhenzhen was overjoyed, and said softly: "The gentleman has followed the young master all his life. ”

…… The second day of the seventh month is Zhou Yanru to the Wenhua Hall to teach the emperor's eldest grandson "Thousand Character Text", the third emperor's eldest grandson rests in the first month of July, and it is Zhang Yuan's turn on the fourth day of the seventh month, the biggest advantage after becoming an East Palace lecturer is that he has more free time, in addition to teaching the emperor's eldest grandson to stay in the palace, the other people can either go to the Hanlin Academy to sit in the hall, or stay at home and say that they are preparing for the sermon, and what preparations are needed to explain the "Thousand Character Text", the Hanlin Academy is a noble and leisurely place, and now it is more leisurely to become a lecturer in the East Palace. On the third day of the seventh month, Zhang Yuan did not go to the Hanlin Academy to sit in the hall, he wore a free scarf and a straight robe, and took Mu Zhenzhen to a medicine shop near the Daci Yanfu Palace to see a doctor. "Doctors read a lot of people, and some maidservants of large families are made to have a big belly by the old man or young master, and they are afraid that the grandmother or young grandmother will know, so they come to ask for a few fetal pills to eat-"Abortion! Zhang Yuan frowned, then understood, and said, "I want to protect the fetus." ”

The doctor glanced at Zhang Yuan and said, "Then do less heavy work, and there will be nothing else." ”

Mu Zhenzhen didn't care about the doctor's attitude, she was very happy in her heart, followed Zhang Yuan out of the pharmacy, and arrived at the gate of Daci Yanfu Palace, the people of Qingmo Mountain were setting up a hexagram stall, Dong Milk Tea was helping on the side, Dong Milk Tea's stomach was already obvious, and the originally delicate and thin girl was now plump and ruddy - "Sister Zhenzhen is good, Zhang Gongzi is good." ”

Dong Milk Tea saw Zhang Yuan and Mu Zhenzhen first, hurriedly greeted her, and asked Mu Zhenzhen what happened when he came out in the morning?

Mu Zhenzhen said: "It's nothing. ”

Zhang Yuan chatted with the people of Qingmoshan for a few words, and asked the people of Qingmoshan if the business of fortune-telling is good, do you want to pawn a small shop, so it is too hard to set up a stall in the wind and rain?

Qingmo Mountain said: "The mountain people have this intention, but there is still a little less silver - no, no, no, no need Zhang Gongzi's help, the mountain people have been favored by Zhang Gongzi, the mountain people have accumulated more than ten taels of silver, ready to rent or pawn a house in September, both at home or open a shop, milk tea is about November delivery." ”

Zhang Yuan said: "Okay, if you have any difficulties, just come to me." ”

Before returning to the courtyard, Mu Zhenzhen said: "Young master, don't tell Mrs. Shang beforehand. ”

Zhang Yuan said: "Why, isn't this a happy event? ”

Mu Zhenzhen said cowardly: "Young master, don't say it yet, okay?" ”

Zhang Yuan said: "According to you, let's talk about it when you enter Beijing, at that time your belly is not much smaller than Dong Milk Tea, you have to pay attention now, small dragon sticks, archery, these are less practice, don't stride when practicing." ”

Mu Zhen really responded: "Yes, the servant knows." He asked again: "Then is it okay to pick up the young master on the Yuhe Bridge?" ”

Zhang Yuan said: "It's okay, your belly is not big now." ”

Mu Zhenzhen pursed his lips and smiled.
