Chapter 22: Not enough to see
"If you don't communicate, those children won't be eaten by Pei Pozi?" Zhao Wennian smiled at her sister-in-law who didn't know a few children: "Mrs. Pei has been operating by my sister's side for decades, and it is too difficult to bring her down with two children who have no help." ”
"Brother Chen and Sister Man, at this time, you can come to our house for help, not Bofu. It shows that they are close to us, and Sister Man said countless times today that they are 'connected by blood' and 'flesh and blood'. She has something to ask us, we have something, she is afraid and unwilling to stand on the shore. ”
"What a good boy." Mrs. Zhao thought of Roman Mingyan's figure again, and couldn't help but smile on her face: "In this way, let them go." In the end, they couldn't escape the doom, and before we had an accident, we had to help them gain a firm foothold in Xuanyi Bo's Mansion. ”
"Yes." Zhao Wennian also smiled: "If they can really have a place beside the king of Hejun, let alone gain a firm foothold in the Bofu, maybe they can protect a few children in our family." ”
At the same time that the Zhao family made a preliminary decision, Jin Gui was also reporting the matter to the county king's study.
"After the Zhongling Temple prayed, our people from the Zhao family did not retreat, this is the letter that was just sent back."
Jin Gui respectfully handed over the letter, and added happily: "Lord Zhao is not in an important position, and he is a foreign officer; Second Master Zhao is devoted to business, although we have released people in the Zhao family, we have generally not used it. Who knew that this attention could be connected to a big event. ”
Speaking of this, King He naturally thought of Roman. When the girl said that her uncle had money and food, she was very angry.
After retracting his mind and reading the news, he smiled at the corner of the king's lips: "I really let that girl say it right, Jinghu and Jinghu will be affected by the disaster, and this disaster relief matter will fall on us." ”
Recently, the DPRK and China have been full of gunpowder, and officials from various places have been frequently transferred. He Jun Wang Guang looked at it coldly, and knew that the prince was brewing a big move.
But this kind of heart and means are too disgraceful.
Jin Gui pursed his lips, and his face was full of disdain: "In order to suppress the prince, I can put the safety of tens of millions of people at risk." If he really becomes the emperor, will the people still have a way to live? ”
The king of Hejun glanced at him and mended his knife: "The prince not only wants to transfer Zhao Wenxiang and take Zhao Wennian, but he also asked the household department to press the appropriation of Jinghu and Jinghu and delay the military salary of Jinghu and Jinghu for more than half a year. ”
"It was originally a situation of less money and less food, and then pressed the military salary to provoke people's hearts. The disaster on the two roads of Jinghu is not easy to relieve. ”
"Fortunately, the prince is cautious, and Zhongling Temple came back from praying for blessings. If you really let the prince go, it won't be too restricted. ”
"Hmm."
He Junwang hummed in a low voice, bowed his head and continued to deal with official business.
Jin Gui looked at the prince for a while, and when he saw that he had no other orders, he was about to retreat.
Who knew that when he walked to the door, the prince opened his mouth again: "Go to Yuhu Spring to order a good table on the table, you can do it in the future, before Zhao Wennian talks to Luo Tingchen." It's decided, you go and invite Luo Tingchen in person, if Roman wants to follow, don't stop. ”
Zhao Wennian decided to pass Luo Tingchen to pass the silver and grain that supported Jinghu to the hands of the four princes, which could be regarded as an entrance ceremony to support his nephew.
In this way, it is right for the prince to contact Luo Tingchen, but why should he rush before Zhao Wennian finds Luo Tingchen? Before that, where did Luo Tingchen deserve to talk about silver and money with the prince?
And to piggyback on Roman? What are men doing with a girl when they talk about business?
Forget it, the master must have the master's deep meaning when doing things. If he can guess the master's intentions, isn't that even more powerful than the master?
Quickly walked out of the door, and there was another command from the prince behind him: "The news of the crown prince's wooing of Zhao Wenxiang will be revealed to Luo Tingchen and Roman, and there is no need to let them know the plans of the Zhao family." ”
He rushed to deal with political affairs with the king of the county, and picked up the letter handed over by Jin Gui and read it leisurely.
Roman's girl hasn't gotten the letter yet, she wants to know that she has the opportunity to rely on the queen and the prince, how will she react?
He Junwang remembered that in the backyard of Zhongling Temple, Roman and Luo Tingchen talked about pulling his tiger skin as a banner, and their expressions were very proud and natural.
Compared with the power of the crown prince, he and the prince of the county are not enough.
"That girl must lean on the prince's side." He Jun Wang remembered the last dinner, and his face turned gloomy: "Seeing a Chen Mo, you can throw this king aside, and the more powerful prince beckons to her, why don't she rush over?" ”
After talking to herself, the prince of Hejun also looked solemn: "That girl can talk about moving Luo Tingchen, maybe she has the ability to move the Zhao family." Let's watch, if you really don't need it......"
And the king turned his head to look out the window. The moonlight outside was quiet, and a wisteria bloomed gently in the moonlight, like Roman looking at Chen Mo intently.
I thought of the scene of Roman and Luo Tingchen picking flowers in Zhongling Temple, the girl's eyes lit up, pointing to Luo Tingchen's jumping up and down picking flowers. That look and appearance are really hilarious.
He withdrew his gaze, settled his mind and proceeded with the official documents. This time, I didn't take the official document into it. He remembered that Zuo Hanlin held a literary meeting, and Luo Tingchen's brothers and sisters were slandered on the street.
The brother and sister reacted quickly, and Luo Tingchen kept his back hand to pull people; Roman had already asked the shopkeeper for good manpower, and he was about to fool the Witnesses into the hotel.
Bullies have dominated that street for several years, where it is common to cheat and abduct. The government is unwilling to entangle with the fight, turning a blind eye and mud.
The people present that day must have seen a lot even if they were not aggrieved. Roman asked for tea and snacks, and even asked several people to stand up and be willing to testify.
That girl's ability to control the situation and guide people's hearts should not be underestimated.
"It's only eleven years old!"
He Junwang put down his pen, got up and stood in front of the window and quietly looked at the wisteria tree: beauty is extremely beautiful, and good is also the best. But if this tree and flower are not honey or poison, then damn it!
Roman was with his sister, showing his mother the same gift as his aunt's gift, when he suddenly sneezed several times.
"This is my aunt scolding me. went on a trip, and she got so many good things. ”
She took out the 'osmanthus cake', twisted a piece and fed it to her mother's mouth: "This season, osmanthus is very rare. My aunt knew that you loved to eat, so she specially asked someone to get up from the ice cellar and steamed two large drawers for you. Mother taste it to see if it is the taste of your childhood. ”
"Was it really your aunt's order to steam?" Mrs. Luo took a bite of osmanthus cake and suddenly felt sweet: "I loved it when I was a child, and after I left home, I ate a lot of it everywhere, and I didn't think it was as delicious as the Zhao family." ”
Over the years, the sister-in-law has not missed the festival of the evening sunshine garden according to the New Year's Festival, but there has never been osmanthus cake.
"The eldest uncle is on Jinghu South Road, and the eldest aunt is in Zhongling Temple; The little uncle was busy with business and didn't stay in the house for a total of two hours, except for the little uncle who can handle such a tedious matter, who else can be? ”
Roman glanced at his mother with disgust, and stuffed the remaining plate of osmanthus cake and plate into his mother's hand: "My little aunt said that not many people in the house like to eat osmanthus, and the fragrance is a little greasy. But the eldest aunt and the younger uncle picked it every year, saved it every year, and used it to make wine when they couldn't save it. If she wants to stop her, or waste ice, the eldest aunt and the younger uncle will look at her. ”
"Today, my sister said that my mother likes to eat osmanthus cakes, and my little aunt doesn't know why."
She said it, but it was after the little aunt steamed the osmanthus cake. Roman smiled slyly and hid the secret.
Roland took out the carp wood carving that Cousin Xi had dotted, and handed it to his mother: "My cousin said that this is the year when my uncle participated in the Spring Festival, and my mother carved it for my uncle. ”
Mrs. Luo took it and looked at the lamp boy carefully: "Yes, I was fooling around when I was a child, and now I blush when I look at it." How can such a carver be embarrassed to take out his hand? ”
"It's the heart that counts."
Roman also squeezed over to join in the fun: "Don't say it, the carver and painter, this object is really well preserved." The wood is covered with pulp, and it must be often taken out to play with and appreciate. But more than ten years have passed, and there is not even a speck of ash in the small crevices, let alone cracks. ”
"This is given by my mother, or carved by my own hands, my uncle must take good care of it."
"My uncle has been in charge for many years."
"The eldest aunt and the younger uncle are still at home, they must take care of such a precious object for the eldest uncle."
Roland took it for granted, and Roman nodded his head as if it should be taken for granted.
Only Mrs. Luo's heart was sour and warm: Zhao Wennian didn't like osmanthus the most, saying that it was boring to smell the flowers. When Zhao Ping was unhappy, he loved to cover the osmanthus sachet in his bed. often tricked him into eating osmanthus cakes, and he could be happy for several days when he was her last time.
Without her in Zhao's Mansion, naturally no one would cover his bed with osmanthus flowers, and no one would force him to eat osmanthus candy or trick him into eating osmanthus cake.
But he didn't cut down the osmanthus tree in the backyard, and still picked osmanthus with his sister-in-law every year?
Mrs. Luo remembered that when Zhao Wennian was five or six years old, she always liked to stick to her, and if she didn't go back, she had to come to her stepmother to mention it in person before he left.
She annoyed him at the time, and even more hated her stepmother for carrying Zhao Wennian's ears and not allowing Zhao Wennian to stick to her. Therefore, when Zhao Wennian came to her again, she pushed him off the lake. At that time, she didn't really want to push him down, but she accidentally tripped over Mama Pei's feet and staggered with a lot of force.
When Zhao Wennian was scooped up, he was bruised from the cold. But he didn't faint, his eyes were full of grievances and pitiful, and he looked at her in a daze, his dark lips kept shaking, and he didn't say anything.
He didn't stick to her anymore, and he didn't call his sister sweetly. She thought he hated her......
Mrs. Luo's eyes were a little sore, and she rubbed the carp wood carving back and forth, and asked Roman for a long time: "Your little uncle...... Is he good? ”
"Okay, that's good." Roland was the fastest, tired of being in his mother's arms, and counted his uncle with his fingers: "I specially asked someone to go to the city to buy me candy, and I invited someone to measure and tailor her clothes, and I decided to invite us to ......eat at Jade Huquan next time."
Roman looked at his mother, knowing that this was obviously not what she wanted to ask. But she didn't open her mouth, and listened to her sister continue with a smile. When my sister couldn't remember, she even provided ideas: "At lunchtime, you and Zhao Chongan grabbed the deer tendons, and the little uncle also knocked Zhao Chongan on the head with chopsticks." ”
The two sisters talked about it lively, and Mrs. Luo listened, so she went to the Zhao family 'out of the body'.
I haven't been back for nearly ten years, and when I close my eyes, the Zhao family's early wood, flowers and trees are still clear in my mind. She didn't have a reason, she wanted to go back and see if the home in her heart had changed.
When she came back to her senses, the sisters had already begun to say that the little aunt was good. They took the gifts out of the box in the same way, arguing that this was given to her by her little aunt, and that was given to her by her little aunt.
scrambling to please, laughing and scolding......
Her house hadn't been so lively in years. She lives like a sister-in-law, even the children are so tired that they don't dare to laugh!
Perhaps, it's time to go out for a walk?
"My aunt will come to pick us up on my birthday next month. When the time comes, you will definitely look good when you wear this coupling-colored skirt with this string of 'flowers and fruits' hair rings given by your aunt. ”
"I think it's good-looking, too." Roland compared the two strands of hair rings to the double bun, turned his head and asked Mrs. Luo: "What do you think, does it look good?" ”
Looking at her daughter's smiling face that was flushed with excitement, Mrs. Luo's usual stiff face also smiled: "It's beautiful." Manman and Lan Lan are both good-looking. "Unleash the vitality of teenagers, more eye-catching, better looking.
"Mother!" Roman looked at Mrs. Luo's expression and said tentatively: "Wait for my uncle to pick me up, and my mother will go with me, okay?" ”
After saying this, Roman looked at her mother with a good look, and his heart was pounding. If the mother took the initiative to go, the grievances between the two families would be better resolved.
"Good!"
