Chapter XVIII

Xue Chongxun's mouth was bitter, but he didn't eat the brown sugar in the bowl, he first drank two sips of tea and rinsed his mouth, then opened a wooden box and took a piece of clove candy and put it in his mouth. The ancient version of "chewing gum" not only relieves the bitterness, but also removes the taste of traditional Chinese medicine in the mouth. The poet Song Zhiwen in the Wu Zetian period asked about love|containing cloves, and later it was recorded in "Mengxi Pen Talk": The story of the three provinces Langgongkou | contains chicken tongue incense, and wants to play its thing, and the answer is fragrant. This is exactly what is said to be clove to cure the breath, and it is true that it is still written so far.

In the evening, Sun insisted on letting Li Yan'er stay in the room, Xue Chongxun was stunned and said: Yuwen Ji will not make an elixir, even if the prescription is good, she can't conceive that night, if there is really such a miraculous thing, you can only go to Guanyin?

But he didn't say anything, and he was ready to rest before it was too early.

Sun said goodbye to him and walked out of the living room. When she walked out of the warm pavilion, she met Yao Wan, the waiter on duty, so she gave her a look and beckoned Yao Wan to come out to explain something.

Yao Wan knew that the daughter of the Sun family was the princess of the Xue Mansion, and their family was the mistress of the Jin Mansion, and if she didn't have a good relationship with them, she would definitely not have a good life in the mansion, so she followed out of the wooden lattice door very obediently and respectfully.

Sun explained softly: "When you are on duty for a while, you will go outside the screen and watch what they are doing......

Yao Wan's face turned red as soon as he "swooped", and he was so embarrassed that he couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground to get into.

Seeing this, Sun explained: "We are doing this for Xue Lang's good, not trying to harm him behind his back, right?" Da Lang has no heirs in this lineage, one is that the family is unfavorable, and the other is that Xue Lang will be laughed at by his colleagues if he continues to stand like this. Let him stay with the princess, if there is a male son, that is, the eldest son and the eldest son, won't everyone be happy? ”

Yao Wan nodded slightly, and Sun couldn't help but add another sentence: "We are all sincerely thinking about the Xue family, although you are the girl in Xue Lang's room, as long as you listen to me, you will not be treated badly." ”

Yao Wan's mind is not stupid, and she can hear what the Sun family means, and she understands in her heart: After all, Xue Chongxun is in charge of the outside affairs the most, and the delicate relationship in this mansion is still the most powerful in the Sun family, Li Yan'er, and the other women have to look at the color of the concubine. Yao Wan figured it out and hurriedly agreed.

Sun nodded with satisfaction and said, "You will come to my side in a while and talk about things." ”

"Yes." Yao Wan responded softly.

…… After more than an hour, everyone in the room was asleep, and Yao Wan opened the door and walked out to Tingyu Lake. On the way, I met a slave and maid who patrolled the night twice, but when she saw that it was the girl in Xue Chongxun's room, she didn't ask much, and Yao Wanshun went to the courtyard of the study. There were some lanterns hanging under the eaves on the road, and she also carried a lamp, and the road was not dark.

Her face was flushed, and there was an indescribable feeling in her heart, because she heard Li Yan'er complaining about a lewd thing in front of Xue Chongxun, as if Xue Chongxun and his mother-in-law also had a shady relationship.

Rao is Yao Wan has heard of indecent things among powerful doctors, and it is still a little difficult to accept that it happened to him at this time. Of course, she wouldn't say it to Sun, pretending to be confused is the best way, just understand it in her heart.

Before this, she didn't expect Xue Chongxun and the Sun family to do such a thing, looking at the Sun family as a very dignified and virtuous person, Xue Chongxun looked very decent, and the result was ......

Yao Wan's mind was in a mess, she had already walked to the door of the courtyard of the study, Sun's maid took her into the courtyard, and when she walked under the eaves, she saw that the light in Sun's room was still on, she should be waiting for her.

"Knock knock......" The maid knocked lightly on the door a few times, and as soon as the door opened, the two walked in. I saw a pair of candles lit next to the dresser, and the light I saw outside at first was the candle flame on the lampstand. Sun was sitting on a cork chair embroidering something...... Seeing this, Yao Wan had a feeling that Mrs. Sun should have been the kind of woman who was very virtuous, who could manage both housekeeping and needlework, and she didn't know what a woman could do. Yao Wan even suspected that she had misheard it in Xue Chongxun's living room at first, but after thinking about it silently, Li Yan'er's words were clear, and it was impossible to hear them wrong......

When Yao Wanzheng was thinking wildly, she heard Sun and the maid talking, and sent Xiaocui and the others out, she put down the needle and thread in her hand, pointed to the Hu bed next to her and asked Yao Wan to sit affectionately.

"It's not been long since you came in, but I didn't treat you as an outsider. I also know what happened to you before, don't blame Xue Lang, the sons and daughters are doing national affairs outside......" Sun said kindly.

Yao Wan hurriedly took over: "I naturally don't dare to have the slightest resentment, and I am grateful to Xue Lang. The past is a foregone conclusion, if it weren't for Xue Lang's grace to buy the Yao family's daughters, I'm afraid our life would be several times more difficult than now. ”

Although she was still a little resistant to Xue Chongxun, this kind of thing was really not to talk about, after all, she was the enemy of their family in official business, but of course she couldn't show it in front of the Sun family.

Sun nodded with satisfaction: "It's not just the female dependents, Yao Chong is guilty of rebellion, and the lives of those brothers in your family can't be saved, although they are now exiled to Lingnan to suffer some hardships, but the incense of the Yao family has been passed down because of this, this is a big deal, don't you say?" ”

Yao Wan also admires Sun Xiaozhi with righteousness and affection, obviously only a woman who knows how to read and has such a demeanor. Yao Wan couldn't help nodding, his respect was undisguised, if he hadn't heard that, Yao Wan really felt that the Sun family cared about him like his elders.

Sun pondered for a moment, and then asked what she was most concerned about: "Has Xue Lang had sex with the princess?" ”

Yao Wan said: "Well, they are in a room and have already slept. ”

Sun frowned, and said with some embarrassment: "I'm not talking about sleeping in the same room, it's ...... You know what I mean? ”

Yao Wan buried her head very low, the roots of her ears were red, and she let out a "hmm".

"When you were on duty, Xue Lang didn't let you sleep?" Sun asked.

Yao Wan was stunned and said, "No...... Sometimes Lang Jun would spend the night in his room, but often he slept alone. ”

Sun said with a smile: "Pei Niang and Dong Niang often go to bed, it's nothing for you to sue me for this kind of thing." ”

Sun looked Yao Wan up and down, from her breasts, buttocks to her slender legs, and saw that Yao Wan was restless with a red face and red ears. "You're still a yellow flower girl, right?"

Yao Wan said in a low voice: "My father disciplined me strictly, and I am not married, so I can't have too much contact with men." ”

Sun frowned and thought for a while and said, "Then you can only understand what happened to Xue Lang and the princess carefully just now...... I don't want to ask Yan'er, there is some misunderstanding, you can tell me. ”

Yao Wan cried with a sad face, opened her mouth and didn't know where to start, but said: "There is a curtain hanging on the bed, I can't see it clearly, in short, they are in the same room, don't worry, madam." ”

"And what did they say?"

Yao Wan secretly instructed herself not to talk about it, so she avoided it and said lightly: "Xue Lang said some words of relief, princess...... Didn't say anything, and then went to sleep......"

"Be careful, from the time they untie their clothes." Sun's Zhengsedao.

Yao Wan thought about it, at first it was Li Yan'er who complained that Xue Chongxun bullied her mother, and then after an argument, Xue Chongxun said nice things again. Yao Wan couldn't tell this paragraph, so she had to pretend to be confused, so she privately omitted the previous things: "Lang Jun said, said...... I'm going in, it might hurt a little, just bear with it and be fine......"

Speaking of this, Yao Wan really wanted to slap herself, she blushed, and said compulsively: "Then I heard the princess cry out in pain: I bleed, it hurts, you lie to others, bully others......"

Sun nodded in satisfaction, "That's it." And then, did Xue Lang finish that? ”

Yao Wan said with a sad face: "Lang Jun said that he would be fine after a while, and said a lot of good things. But the princess said you, that, that...... Big things are so hateful that they hurt people, don't do it! It's better to ...... It's not as good as your tongue ......" Yao Wan didn't have the strength to speak, what kind of mess is this, how did I say it, they are too much.

Sun was also stunned, "Did you continue?" Could it be that Xue Lang just accommodated her like this? ”

Yao Wan said: "Then the princess cried, saying that she was going to die, and bit Lang Jun...... Lang Jun was not angry, and said that it would be fine again after two days...... The princess clamored and said that she would never want you to toss people again......"

Sun's face showed a hint of anger: "She can't bear any hardship, what's the big deal?" If the prescription of Yuwen Divine Doctor is really useful, wouldn't it be troublesome to let the side concubine or girl give birth to the eldest son when the time comes! Sun thought for a while and advised, "At home, you have a lot of eyes, give it a look, if Xue Lang finds someone else to sleep, persuade him, I have other ways outside." ”

Yao Wan hurriedly said: "I have a low status, how dare I care about Lang Jun's affairs?" ”

Sun shook his head and said, "It's okay, only if it makes sense, Xue Lang can listen to it, aren't the eldest sons of whom's family all born in the main room?" Just mention it. ”

"Oh......" Yao Wan replied helplessly.

At this time, Sun Shi breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Then you go to rest first, I know in my heart, and I will not treat you badly." ”

"Mrs. Xie." Yao Wan hurriedly got up to say goodbye and came out of Sun's room as if he had fled.

Early the next morning, Xue Chongxun went out to the kingdom of Qin, and Li Yan'er got up very late, and then saw Sun standing on the edge of the bed with a bad face. Li Yan'er said aggrievedly: "Mother, why are you looking at me like this? People don't have the strength to get up so late, and it still hurts. ”

Sun said: "You are fifteen years old, and your mother was holding you in her arms when she was as old as you, look at you are still ignorant!" At the beginning, my mother put a lot of effort into giving birth to you, but you are good, but the righteous concubine gave up the opportunity to others! Sun Zhengse said in a low voice, "Don't think that everything will be fine if the princess of the Li Tang clan is actually crowned, the princess Jincheng in the palace is also the Li family clan, the mother is more precious than the son, and the difference between the front and the side is not as important as the heir." Let's have more foresight, isn't it harmful for you, for your future plans? ”

Li Yan'er curled her lips and said angrily: "I'm just useless, my mother gave birth to one, so should I call him my brother?" ”

"Shut up!" Sun scolded, angry and sad, hurriedly glanced left and right, and was so sad that he shed tears. Seeing this, Li Yan'er suddenly couldn't bear it, and hurriedly grabbed Sun's arm and said kindly, "Mother, I was wrong, I shouldn't say it so much." ”

Sun choked up and said, "Don't you mention it in the future, if outsiders know about it, we will still have a face?" It's all blamed on my mother...... not good."

Li Yan'er said kindly: "Mother doesn't have to blame herself, I actually just feel embarrassed, but I don't blame you." Mother is Yan'er's dearest person, I am willing to do whatever you want...... Don't cry. She patted Sun's back as she spoke, and her nose twitched as if it was uncomfortable.

When Sun took out a handkerchief to wipe his tears, Li Yan'er smiled evilly and whispered in Sun's ear: "Lang Jun's tongue is very powerful, let him use his tongue to wait for his mother." ”

Sun was dumbfounded, spit and said, "Don't talk nonsense, talk about you!" You can't have a baby like that, so you bear with it tonight and listen to your mother. ”

Li Yan'er said: "Lang Jun also thinks I'm troublesome, I'm afraid I'm going to Sister Cheng Ting's side tonight." ”

"You don't have to worry about this, I have my own way." Sun wiped away his tears and said, "The decoction last night was prescribed by Yuwen Ji, and her reputation in Chang'an is not unknown, she is called a goddess doctor, and it is not easy for high-ranking officials and nobles to ask her to diagnose her pulse...... Let's rather believe it than not, in case the divine doctor prescribes a panacea, the eldest son must be yours, and Yan'er's status in the Jin Palace's mansion will not be shaken in the slightest. ”G
