Chapter 400: Diligence (2)
In the evening, He Qi returned home from the palace.
He Qi first went to greet Mrs. Tai, and then asked Wei: "...... How is the second sister-in-law today? ”
Mrs. Tai smiled with a relieved smile: "The Wei family can already eat and drink some gruel today." In the future, I will be able to raise it slowly, and I should be able to stay in three months. ”
Then, he was full of praise for Cheng Jinrong's wonderful medical skills: "Jinrong is really a miracle doctor!" He actually took the child by disembowelment. With this kind of medical skill, if a woman has a difficult birth in the future, she will be able to escape death. ”
"In the past two days, there has been a thick stack of posts sent to the house, all of which are aimed at Jinrong. Fortunately, Jin Rong is in the palace, otherwise, he will be overwhelmed. ”
He Qi smiled dumbly: "It seems that grandmother is already overwhelmed." ”
Mrs. Tai nodded first, and then smiled: "It's not that exaggerated." It's just that Wei's is lying on the couch to nourish his body, and Zhu's is also pregnant, so it is not appropriate to work excessively. Someone sent a post to the door, and I had to come forward to entertain a few words, and I couldn't be idle. ”
Speaking of which, there are still too few female dependents in Hefu!
He Qi's biological mother died early, and in the past, the Zheng family took care of these trivial matters. After Zheng was placed under house arrest, Mrs. Tai promoted her granddaughter-in-law Zhu to be in charge.
The Zhu family is also a famous lady, but in the end, she is a little younger. When encountering an elder with a noble status, it is not rude to have Mrs. Tai come forward.
He Qi said with a smile: "With my grandmother here, I have no worries and can do errands with peace of mind." ”
"Don't coax me with sweet mouths all day long." Mrs. Tai smiled and glanced at him: "After this year, you will also be eighteen years old." It's time to marry a daughter-in-law! It also allows me, an old bone of my age, to enjoy the blessings of my granddaughter-in-law. ”
This is the third time in the past month that Mrs. Tai has brought up this topic.
He Qi coughed and changed the subject: "It's getting late, grandmother should rest early!" ”
Mrs. Tai was angry and funny: "As soon as you mention getting married, you will talk about it." I know that Jin Rong is different from ordinary boudoir girls. She was on duty in front of the emperor and won the trust of the emperor. Even if you become a parent, you can't stay in the inner house every day. But you can't just drag it out! ”
"Could it be that she works on an errand one day and doesn't get married in one day? Then when are you going to wait! ”
"You're not in a hurry, I'm still in a hurry to hug my great-grandson!"
The Zhu family and the Wei family all had sons.
But He Dalang is the son of the long house, and He Yuan is the second room. He Qi is the descendant of the long house, and his heir is the most orthodox bloodline of the He family.
Mrs. Tai looked at He Qi dissatisfiedly, with a posture of "must give a definite date of marriage".
He Qi had a headache. Grandmother is really getting more and more difficult to fool.
Doesn't he want to get married? He was completely alone in his previous life, and in this life, he has lived for more than 20 years, and he is still a loyal boy! Why wouldn't he want to marry his sweetheart?
It's just that at present, the court is in turmoil, the outcome of the border war is undecided, and Queen Pei and the six princes seem to be beautiful in the palace, but in fact, they have an unstable foothold. Not to mention that Cheng Jinrong has no intention of getting married, even he knows that this is definitely not a good time to get married.
At least, we have to wait until the problem of Yuan Silan's henchman is completely solved before getting married.
"Grandmother," He Qi smiled and said, "There are some things that I can't say directly. However, I can tell my grandmother that the marriage will be at least the following year. ”
That is, at least a little more than a year to wait.
He Qi's temperament and temper, Mrs. Tai couldn't be clearer, and sighed when she heard the words: "That's it, you are willing to wait, I won't say anything." ”
He Qi smiled and said briefly: "As long as she is willing to marry, I will wait for as long as I want." ”
Mrs. Tai twitched the corners of her mouth, waved her hand, and sent He Qi back to the courtyard to rest: "These sweet words, keep them for your Imperial Doctor Cheng." Don't tell me about it. Let's go back and rest! ”
……
After He Qi returned to the courtyard, he was not in a hurry to rest, and called Su Mu over first: "How are these two days?" Did you go to Miss Shiso? ”
A trace of shame flashed on Su Mu's expressionless black face.
He Qi looked at it in his eyes and was a little funny: "What's wrong?" Could it be that Zisu refuses to take care of you? ”
"Not really." Su Mu was a little depressed: "I sent needlework and clothing yesterday, and Miss Shisu happily accepted it." I sent a box of pastries today, and she accepted it with a smile. ”
He Qi asked with interest: "Since you are willing to accept the things you give, it can be seen that Miss Shiso also has a good impression of you." Why are you still so sullen? ”
Su Muxian refused to say anything, and only after He Qi's questioning did he tell the last scene: "...... She took the snacks and stuffed her purse for me. Let me buy a few more boxes of snacks when I leave the house, saying that licorice loves to eat. ”
Congratulations: "......"
He Qi tried to control the expression on his face, so as not to hurt Su Mu's self-esteem by bursting out laughing.
Su Mu sighed a little sadly: "Childe can laugh if he wants to!" ”
He Qi finally couldn't help it and laughed.
Su Mu was also too sad. After being single for 30 years, I finally moved my mind to marry my daughter-in-law, and I was full of devotion like a deer.
I never thought that the perilla was a little incomprehensible. also stuffed a purse to buy snacks for Su Mu, this is using Su Mu as an errand boy!
Eh, that's funny.
Su Mu was finally annoyed by the laughter, and proposed expressionlessly: "Childe hasn't been to the martial arts arena for a few days!" How about the little companion loose his muscles? ”
……
Early the next morning.
As soon as He Qi stepped outside the Baohe Palace, a familiar pretty face came into view.
It was Cheng Jinrong.
Cheng Jinrong was obviously waiting for He Qi, standing under the eaves with a smile. When he saw He Qi's face clearly, Cheng Jinrong was stunned: "Didn't you sleep well last night?" ”
He Qi's eyes were glowing with green shadows, and he looked like he hadn't slept well.
He Qi smiled casually: "Last night, I practiced swords with Su Mu in the martial arts arena, and I accidentally practiced until midnight. ”
Cheng Jinrong heard a little subtlety, and raised his eyebrows and asked: "What's wrong with Su Mu?" ”
He Qi coughed, a smile flashed in his eyes, and quickly explained Su Mu's troubles: "...... I laughed so much that I laughed once. Su Mu was annoyed and angry by my laughter, he was extremely brave in the martial arts arena last night, and I almost couldn't resist it. ”
Cheng Jinrong: "......"
Cheng Jinrong didn't smile, and a trace of embarrassment flashed in his eyes.
He Qi's heart moved, and he asked in a low voice, "Could it be that Zisu deliberately made this move to dispel Su Mu's thoughts?" ”
Cheng Jinrong sighed helplessly: "Nine times out of ten, this is the case." Since I can remember when I was young, Mrs. Yong'an Hou has always wanted to marry Zisu with a family affair. Shisu was afraid that after getting married and having children, he would not take care of me carefully enough. Insist on refusing to get married! In those years, there were a lot of overt and secret courtesies to her, but she refused. ”
With Shiso's intelligence and penetration, he thought that he had already seen Su Mu's intentions, and with this move, he euphemistically expressed his refusal.
