Chapter 117: Equals

A few days before leaving the pavilion, Hua Jintang called the housekeeper of the pawnshop who married Zhuangzi and asked Jiao Niang to recognize people one by one.

He gave Jiao Niang two Zhuangzi and two pawnshops, these are his private collections, Ji Shi held his hands and talked to him, saying that he would not even give Jiao Niang a little ash.

Let Jiao Niang pick six maids, six slaves to marry, there is no shortage of slaves on the side of Rui Wangfu, it is said that it is enough to bring only two personal ones, Mei Niang only brought four maids when she married, but to Jiao Niang, he was afraid that she would be wronged in Rui Wangfu, and he just wanted to take all the slaves of the whole house with him.

Qinghuan, Shuixiang, Qiushuang, and Wodan must be brought, and the remaining two, Jiao Niang picked a duty from her own house, and asked Hua Jintang for red apricots, and among the other six slaves, one of them was a little guy who was good with red apricots.

In the future, whether they are willing to stay by her side or want to go out, they will follow them, which can be regarded as fulfilling the original promise.

"I can only wronged you, Ji ...... her," Hua Jintang sighed heavily, "She doesn't know what's wrong now, the whole person is different from before, and she doesn't look obedient and virtuous at all." There was a lot of dissatisfaction between the words.

Jiao Niang offered a cup of hot tea with both hands and talked about the scene, "The eldest lady is sick, I think she is not feeling well, and even the mood is not good, my father should be more considerate." ”

Hua Jintang took the tea, the tea was seven or eight points hot, and it was just right to drink, he took a few sips in a row, raised his head, and shook Jiao Niang's shoulder, "You are always so understanding." ”

After a pause, his eyes flashed, and he lowered his head, as if he didn't dare to look directly at Jiao Niang, "Do you still blame your father for your aunt's affairs?"

Jiao Niang held the tea in her hand, the tea gas was full of her face, more white and delicate, she gently scraped the edge with the tea lid, and listened to him ask, her hand couldn't help but pause.

She looked at Hua Jintang squarely, and a sad feeling appeared on her face for a moment, and then smiled: "Why did my father talk about this again, in fact," she seemed to choke up, but she controlled it well, "Actually, I should apologize to my father, I know that my father loves my aunt." At that time, I was drilling the horns of the bull, maybe it was really just Li's mother's idea. ”

"Your aunt is my most important woman. Hua Jintang was silent for a while, his gaze extended from the window to the room where the third aunt lived, there was indescribable charm and sadness in his eyes, for a moment, he retracted his gaze, fixed on Jiao Niang's face, and said frankly and from the heart: "Jiao Niang, after you get married, you must also remember that the person you love the most should be yourself, don't believe in a man, don't believe that he will always protect you, otherwise you can only be disappointed in the end." ”

Jiao Niang looked at him with tears welling up in her eyes, red and red, as if there was a feeling of father-daughter connection, and her heart was sore and painful.

"Actually, what you said at the time was not wrong at all. Hua Jintang took a long breath and drank the tea like a cow chewing a peony, "Father is sorry for your aunt, and he is not a good husband." ”

Just thinking of the third aunt can drive him to the brink of collapse, and in the past year, he has thought about her very few times, because he dare not think about it.

Maybe he didn't want to show a collapse in front of his children, Hua Jintang shook the tea bowl and got up, "Father still has something to take care of, so let's go first, you have a good rest." With that, he hurried away.

Just two or three steps to the door, Jiao Niang suddenly stopped him. Jiao Niang looked at his back, and a line of tears fell from her right cheek, "Father, whether you are a good husband or not, I don't know, but you are a good father, I know." ”

Hua Jintang's body trembled, and the tears in his heart fell suddenly, he wiped it indiscriminately, didn't say anything, opened the curtain and walked out.

......

Time flies, and soon the day of leaving the cabinet will come.

Early in the morning, it was still dark, Jiao Niang got up, Ying Che invited the wife of the general of Zhenguo to give Jiao Niang, the wife of the general of Zhenguo is now eighty, and the general of Zhenguo has been with her for more than 60 years, husband and wife are loving, children and grandchildren are full, how many princes and nobles want to ask her to be a well-blessed old man, please go.

"No wonder King Rui invited me three or four times, I am a blessed one. "General Zhenguo's wife has a charitable face, she is old, she is a little blessed, and she looks even more kind.

Jiao Niang smiled shyly, "Thank you for the praise of the old lady, if you can have half of your blessings, it will be Jiao Niang's creation." ”

General Zhenguo's wife smiled, "It's really a sweet mouth, I'm happy with the old woman, in the future, if it's okay, just go to my house, I like you kid." ”

Don't look at the old age of General Zhenguo's wife, but her body is tough, her hands and feet are nimble, and she does it all by herself.

"I think when I was young, I combed my hair for the Queen Mother. Everyone praised her for her good bun, and she talked proudly about her youth.

It may be that when people are old, they like to talk about young things, her eyebrows are dancing, her mouth is like a river, and she talks about the interesting things when she first married General Zhenguo, which makes the people in the room laugh.

"I was the hair-combing maid beside the Queen Mother at that time, he was the little guard in the first emperor's mansion, and when I saw that he was handsome, I wanted to be good with him. But he, like a piece of wood, still doesn't look down on me, saying that my ass is small and I can't give birth to a son. I was angry and went directly to the Queen Mother to make the decision and pressed him to marry me. Let me tell you, the candle night in the cave room is my overlord hard bow, what's the matter, in less than a year, I gave birth to an eldest son for him, and then gave birth to the second, third, and fourth children one after another, and dare to say that a woman with a small ass can't give birth to a son?"

Everyone laughed when they heard it, and Qiao Niang laughed so much that she planted it on Jiao Niang, "This old lady is so interesting, they all say that there is an old man in the family, if there is a treasure, it is really true, I am laughing to death, and my stomach hurts when I laugh." ”

There was such a laugh, but after a while, I heard the sound of crackling firecrackers outside, and the auspicious time had arrived.

The pomp of the wedding is very large, the most favored prince of the Qin Dynasty, even if he marries a side concubine, such a pomp is nothing, but everyone is saying that the concubine of the Hua family does not know what high incense she burned in her previous life, and she actually climbed this blessing.

After bidding farewell to the old lady, Hua Jintang and the eldest lady, Jiao Niang went out surrounded by everyone.

As a side room, the groom does not need to receive relatives, and Jiao Niang was carried into the house from the side door of the palace all the way in this seemingly grand wedding procession.

The door is only the concubine who can go through the door, Jiao Niang is not extravagant, but in this life, she is no longer the little concubine who came in from a sedan chair at the back door, and now, she and Hua Meiniang are on an equal footing.
