Chapter 3: Bitterness

"My aunt and grandmother have already spoken their words, how can they break their promises?" Dou Zhao said with a smile, "It just so happened that two days ago, Mrs. Guo asked someone to send me a message that she wanted to marry our family, so I thought that it would be better to hire the eldest granddaughter of Xuanning Hou for Brother Wei and take the initiative to untie the knot." lest my aunt and grandmother offend the family and have a hard time. ”

The mother-in-law kept nodding, changed her previous gentleness, and said decisively: "Just do as you say." Mrs. Guo has a very good personal relationship with you, and the eldest granddaughter of her family is the one we grew up with, and her character and appearance can be regarded as one in ten thousand, worthy of our brother. Without further ado. In the past two days, you can ask someone to go to Guo's house to propose marriage. As soon as he said that, he realized that Dou Zhao was still sick in bed, so he hurriedly changed his words, "Forget it, I'll do this matter myself." You can rest for a long time, the bitterness of the third chapter of everything has me! Then he took Wei Tingyu back to the courtyard where he lived, and discussed the engagement of Brother Wei.

Dou Zhao's heart was slightly settled, and he instructed Cui Leng: "You went and invited the prince to come to see me!" ”

There are some things that you have to explain to Brother Wei!

Cui Leng answered and left.

Dou Zhao was so tired that he fell asleep.

Hazy, I heard a noise.

“…… Good sister, I'm not trying to spill around here, I'm worried about Madame's illness. Aunt Hu's shrill voice reached her ears harshly, "Everyone in the house is spreading that Madame is dying sick." I just want to ask for a letter. She said, crying like a mourner, "If Madame has three long and two short, how can I live with the third master!" I might as well go with my wife......."

Wei Tingyu has a four-room concubine. After Brother Rui was four years old, they successively gave birth to four boys and four girls for Wei Tingyu.

Fight tiger brothers, go into battle father and son soldiers.

Dou Zhao's two sons are older, and she doesn't mind these concubines opening up branches for the Wei family.

These children have a future, and they will be able to help Brother Wei and Brother Rui in the future.

This Aunt Hu is the first one who gave birth to a concubine in the third chapter.

She was young at the time, so she was proud for a while.

Dou Zhao didn't make a sound, and helped Wei Tingyu to accept two concubines with extremely outstanding appearance, proficient in hundreds of songs, and backgammon.

This is exactly what Wei Tingyu wants.

He hangs out with his two new aunts day and night, where does he remember who she is?

Aunt Hu suddenly realized that as long as Dou Zhao is willing, she can let whoever she wants to be favored, and whoever wants to be left out in the cold will be left out in the cold!

She washed away the lead, lowered her eyebrows and stammered Dou Zhaolai.

Dou Zhao gave Wei Tingyu another concubine who was good at piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.

Several aunts knew how powerful Dou Zhao was, and no one dared to be Zhang Zuozhi from then on.

They are obedient, and Dou Zhao naturally will not embarrass them. The clothes and jewelry of the aunts in the four seasons, the maids and mothers-in-law who serve around the children are all well arranged, and they are not much worse than the main rooms and concubines of ordinary large families. Several aunts settled down, ingratiated themselves with Dou Zhao, served Wei Tingyu, gave birth to children, and the family was quiet and peaceful.

"What nonsense is my aunt talking about?" Cui Leng scolded Aunt Hu angrily, "Why do you always chase after the wind and say something inappropriate?" Master Hou and Mrs. talked for most of the night, Mrs. just rested, do you want to wake up Mrs. can't you? ”

"No, no." Aunt Hu hurriedly explained, "I, I'm just sad...... I can't wait to get this illness for my wife......"

She said it with all her heart.

Dou Zhao believed that she was telling the truth.

If she dies, at most a year, Wei Tingyu will continue the strings, like a beautiful flower and his piano and harmony; Brother Wei is the son of Jining Mansion, and he is about to get married, without a biological mother, and the Yue family to help him; As for Brother Rui and her daughter Sister Yin, with Brother Wei, the son and brother of the world, they will not suffer; There are only a few aunts, the son is still young, his face is fading day by day, and he has no one to rely on!

"Even so, my aunt shouldn't make a big fuss in front of Madame's door." It was Guan Guan's gentle and stern voice that persuaded Aunt Hu, "If several aunts are like you and you, then wouldn't the family be chaotic!" It's early in the morning, my aunt shouldn't have had breakfast yet, right? Why don't you go back to the house and have breakfast, and come back when Mrs. Hui wakes up......"

It's Zhu's voice!

Dou Zhao's heart was shocked.

Zhu is the nurse she chose for her eldest son, with pure conduct, generosity and kindness, and is more patient and meticulous with Brother Wei than with her own son. The most rare thing is that she is still very responsible. Brother Wei is at fault, she never lets him go freely just because she is a nurse, she always teaches him carefully and urges him to correct. So much so that after Dou Zhao gave birth to his next son, he handed over the affairs in Brother Rui's house to her to take care of. He freed his hands and took care of the affairs of the Wei Mansion wholeheartedly.

The consequence of this is that the two sons have reverence and obedience to her, but they have no admiration.

Dou Zhao was remorseful!

First, in the name of Rongyang, he sent the Zhu family to the annex of the Jining Hou Mansion in Xishan, and then personally took care of the diet and daily life of the two sons, asked them about their academic work, and said that Wei Tingyu taught the two sons to ride and shoot......

But this qiē was too late.

Zhu's actions are as straightforward as the moon, and there is nothing to criticize. Ten-year-old Brother Wei and nine-year-old Brother Rui not only remember, but also sensible. In doing so, not only did she not let her two sons get close to her, but she became even more silent in front of her.

She knew that the two sons were complaining that she had sent the Zhu family away.

But who knows how painful it is to understand her as a mother and child?

Or women know women best. Zhu faintly felt that he had a knot in his heart for her, and after going to the Grange, he never took the initiative to contact Brother Wei and Brother Rui, let alone return home without permission.

What is Zhu doing here?

Dou Zhao pondered, and heard a low exclamation outside: "Nurse, why are you here?" The road from Grange to Kyoto is potholed, why don't you tell me, I can call the carriage of the house to pick you up. ”

The young man's crisp and pleasant voice is his son Brother Wei.

After she was sick, the child had to serve the sick, she felt sorry for the child, and was afraid that she would give them the sickness, so she only let them stay calm in the morning and dusk as before.

He is the eldest son of the Marquis of Jining, and has been cultivated as an heir since he was a child, coupled with the precedent of Wei Tingyu, Dou Zhao is more strict with him than the children of the ordinary prince's family, and as he gets older, he acts more and more prudently, and has been praised by many elders, Dou Zhao has been secretly proud of this.

Child-like fuss, is this her calm and reserved eldest son?

Dou Zhao did something that she had always despised.

She got up in her clothes and peeked through the window lattice to see Zhu and her son.

Perhaps afraid of arguing with her, Zhu lowered his voice: "...... I heard that Madame was sick, so I just wanted to come and see it. You don't have to worry, I'll say goodbye to my wife and leave. Then he asked, "How are you doing these days?" I heard the second master say, you and a few sons of the Jingguo Mansion went hunting and hunted a few golden chickens? ”

Brother Wei was very ashamed, and shouted "nurse" dissatisfiedly: "My cousin beat several rabbits!" ”

Mother Zhu laughed: "What's the big deal about beating a few free children!" She gently dusted off her brother's dusty clothes, and said with emotion: "Our family has grown up, and he can ride a horse and hunt like Hou Ye. ”

She raised her chin slightly, and her expression was full of pride.

Brother Wei was stunned for a moment, then smiled a little shyly but full of joy, and said, "Nurse, are you still used to living in the Grange?" Is my brother okay? Do you want me to talk to the housekeeper and transfer my brother to a shop in Kyoto? I've now started to help my mother with the chores. Back then, my brother's math skills were better than mine, and it was more than enough to be a shopkeeper in the shop......"

"Nonsense." Zhu reprimanded Brother Wei with a smile, but there was comfort in his eyes that he couldn't hide, "The affairs of the house have their own routines and regulations, although he is your nurse brother, but he also serves you, where your nurse brother is on an errand, his own wife is in charge." You are the prince of the Marquis of Jining, but you are not a child of an ordinary hundred families, you have to think more about what you do, and you can't break the rules because of your own preferences......

"Got it, got it!" Brother Wei responded impatiently, but affectionately took Zhu's arm, "I finally met you, can't you say a few words?" By the way, the second brother came back to me after going to see you last time and told me that your hands were frozen, let me see ...... I went to the Tai Hospital the day before yesterday to find a bottle of chilblain cream for you, and I heard that it was a recipe used by Emperor Taizu, and it worked very well. I was about to send it to you, but I didn't expect you to enter the house......"

Dou Zhao couldn't listen to it anymore.

She just froze her hands, so you hurriedly went to the Tai Hospital to find something for her; I'm sick to death, have you ever cooked me a bowl of medicine with your own hands!

A tingling pain spread from his chest.

Dou Zhao stumbled back to the inner room, not knowing how he climbed into bed, only knowing that when he came back to his senses, sweat soaked his back.

She shouted to Cui Leng to come in: "Let the Zhu family and the prince come in." ”

Cui Leng saw that Dou Zhao's face was not good, and he glanced at her uneasily, and then went to pass the word.

After a while, Brother Wei and Zhu walked in.

As if to avoid suspicion, they stood respectfully, one with his eyelids down and the other bowed respectfully, calling "Madame".

Dou Zhao's heart was cold, and he didn't even bother to deal with it, so he directly told his son about his upcoming marriage with the Guo family - anyway, even if she avoided the Zhu family, either the eldest son or the second son would tell her about it.

may have been caught off guard, Brother Wei was a little dazed, while Zhu was taken aback, and then his face was happy and he wanted to cry.

The son has not yet understood the deep meaning of this, but Zhu has understood.

Dou Zhao was suddenly a little disheartened, and simply said to his son: "Your nurse has milked you, and there is no credit and hard work." If you pass on my words, you still let the Zhu family go back to your house to serve, and your nursing brother will follow the head of the department on an errand. ”

"Mother!" Brother Wei was surprised and delighted, and without thinking about it, "Plop" knelt at the head of Dou Zhao's bed, and kowtowed to Dou Zhao a few times, "I thank my mother on behalf of the nurse and the nurse brother!" "There was excitement in his eyes.

The Zhu family was in a hurry, and hurriedly went to pull Brother Wei'er: "The prince of the world, I can't help it, I can't help it!" ”

A nurse knows that she can't do it, doesn't her carefully raised son know?

It's just that I can't help myself!

Sisters, brothers, please recommend and collect!
