Chapter 242: The White Horse Passes Through the Gap (1)
After the palace banquet, the days began to run forward like a white horse.
There are only four serious masters in the palace, which is a trivial matter for Xinyue, who has been taught the way of housekeeping since she was a child, but the place where she is now is a bigger place, with more servants and more relatives.
And if there is something she hasn't noticed, Chai Bijun will "remind" her, and will mention her to do it well, Xinyue has always been a good-tempered person, every time there is such a thing, she will let Chai Bijun do it as much as possible.
There was also more leisure time, and the new moon was embroidering a child's belly pocket, and she chose the best silk, and the thread she used was also dyed with grass and trees. Mercy is pregnant, and now it's been more than three months.
This is also the only thing that happened to her a year after marrying into the palace that made her pay attention.
Fei'er put the tea in Xinyue's hand, "Niangniang, drink some tea and make it." ”
"That's it, embroidered and sent to Concubine Shu's palace."
"Yes" Fei'er put the tea aside, out of the way.
"Niangniang, Feng'er is back." Mama Wang came in from outside and said to Xinyue very happily.
"Really?" The last few stitches of the crescent moon didn't bother to embroider any more, "Let her in." ”
Feng'er got married, and after the national funeral, there was a marriage among the people, and as the Son of Heaven, they all took the lead in marrying, not to mention the people. Feng'er is also not young, so Xinyue married her to the one she always mentioned, a sergeant in Xu Xintai's military camp.
"Slave and maid see Niangniang" This is the first time that Feng'er came to see Xinyue after marriage.
Crescent Moon smiled and asked Fei'er to help her up, "Quick, come here." ”
Feng'er combed the woman's sideburns, brought two golden hairpins on them, and wore silk on her clothes, it seems that her officials are very good to her, and the life of the two is also very nourishing.
"Girl, the slave has come to see you." As she spoke, she reached out and took Xinyue's hand, crying and kneeling in front of her couch.
"Okay, don't cry, don't cry. This all says that the bride will not cry, otherwise she will not have a good life in her husband's house, why, your husband is not good to you? You want me to call the shots for you? As she spoke, Crescent Moon raised her hand and pretended to seek justice for her.
"Girl, he treats slaves and maids very well, and everything good is used by slaves and maids." On the wrist of the new moon, there is a jade bracelet, although it is not as good as the one on the wrist of the new moon, it is also a high-grade bracelet of good color.
Feng'er got married, Xinyue naturally offered a dowry, and Xinyue could see that the things on her body were all purchased after marriage, and Feng'er was not an extravagant person, so these things, at first glance, were prepared for her by her husband, and she was very pleased to say, "It's good for him to be good to you, I will marry you, isn't it just to let you live a happy and free life." ”
When Feng'er heard this, she lowered her head, and her tears couldn't be stopped, "The girl is kind to the slave maid, the slave maid, no teeth are unforgettable." ”
"Sister Feng'er, look at your outfit, say that it is the big palace maid who married out of the palace, but I don't know, I thought you were the wife of that adult, come, Mrs. Li get up quickly, the ground is cold, if you kneel and hurt your knee, Lord Li will be distressed." Fei'er has now become the big palace maid in this palace, but in front of Feng'er, she is still very respectful and joking.
"You, you have a bad mouth, Feng Lang is not such a person, and he is just a soldier, what kind of adult is there." As she spoke, Feng'er stood up, just blushing and slapping Fei'er who was joking with her.
Mama Wang came in from outside and served tea for Ma'er, who couldn't bear it and wanted to kneel, but was pulled by Mama Wang, "Mama Wang, you grew up under me, got married, and went back to your parents' house, don't your mother's family give you a bowl of water to drink?" ”
"Thanks, Grandma Xie." As she spoke, she cried and took the bowl of tea.
"Don't cry, otherwise Master Li really thinks that you were wronged when you entered the palace." As she spoke, Crescent wiped her tears with a handkerchief.
The master and servant were still very cordial, and they talked together for more than an hour.
"Really? From this point of view, that Kong Mao is really extremely hateful. Xinyue listened to what Feng'er said, the things outside the palace, and frowned, "Shan'er didn't have any reaction?" ”
"Since Grandpa Yanwen passed away last winter, this Yanwen Mansion has changed owners, and even Mrs. Tai has not been able to make any waves, and was sent back to the ancestral grave of her hometown a few months ago to keep a wake for her husband. And Miss Shan was afraid of affecting her grandfather's future, so even if so many things happened, she just endured it and didn't say a word. ”
"The old slave thinks that Grandpa Mao is not such a person, I'm afraid it's a misinformation outside," Mama Wang shook her head in disbelief.
"Yes, it's still the mourning period of the old man, he is worried at home, if he dares to take a concubine, it will be a big crime to change his reputation and make a plan." Fei'er didn't believe it either.
Feng'er sighed, "I want the slave to say, the girl fortunately didn't marry in at that time, this grandfather Mao looked polite and knowledgeable at first, but the old man was too strict." and the woman he brought into the house, but as soon as he saw him on the street, he brought him into the house, and he stayed in one place every day if he didn't marry. When he brought the woman into the house, the slave and maid saw it with their own eyes. ”
It's not that Feng'er is squatting at the door of Yanwen Mansion to watch the excitement, but that Feng'er's home is near Yanwen Mansion, and the backyard of Yanwen Mansion is only separated by a bridge.
"That's the case" Xinyue thought about Kong Mao, thinking that he would not be such a person.
"What's the woman's origin?" Fei'er asked.
"It is said that it is a woman who sets up a bookstall with her brother, and Grandpa Mao often buys books at that bookstall, and it just so happens that the woman's brother is not there that day, the two said a few words, and the next day the two made an appointment to meet, and it didn't take long to bring them into the house."
"What did Shan'er say?" Crescent asked.
The slave maid also listened to Miss Shan's maid Qi'er said, the girl just entered the house, and Miss Shan took a face, and then she has been waiting in Grandpa Mao's study, once there was a trouble, Miss Shan asked her why she didn't go to ask for peace, she also had a heartbeat, she was just a girl who waited for pen and ink in the study, how to use it every day to ask for peace. Miss Shan said that she was the head of the house, and since she was a little maid, she should be disciplined by herself. This is Grandpa Mao coming in and asking Miss Shan when she will be the housewife. Miss Shan had been crying for a whole day after being humiliated, and she was still wilting and sick. "Because of the proximity to the house, the people who serve around Shan'er always like to go to Feng'er to play, and when they come and go, they will have a clear understanding of the things in the Yanwen Mansion.
"Kong Mao" Xinyue read this name, and her thoughts deepened.
"However, this Miss Shan has really grown up, and if she had encountered such a thing in the past, she would have come to you a long time ago." Although Fei'er is in the Yuwang Mansion in the Eastern Capital, she still knows these young ladies very well, and Miss Shan'er is the person who can't afford to lose.
Xinyue smiled bitterly, but Mama Wang opened her mouth and said, "In the past, it was because Niangniang was her sister-in-law, and she was wronged, so she naturally had to talk to her mother's family, but now she is a serious sister-in-law, and this kind of thing naturally can't trouble our mother." ”
"After all," Xinyue's eyes were a little lonely, and then smiled, "After all, Shan'er and I are separated." And the Yuwang Mansion has indeed fallen recently, and she will inevitably feel despised again. In this way, talk to Cao's sister-in-law, hold a small banquet, and invite Shan'er and the wives who have been good friends with her in the past boudoir, she probably also likes this kind of occasion, and her mood can be relaxed, and being good with Cao's sister-in-law is also beneficial to her status inside and outside the mansion. ”
"Yes" Mama Wang nodded and sent someone to pass the word.
"After all, girl, you're still soft-hearted." Feng'er still calls Xinyue as a girl, and Xinyue is also very useful, and she reached out and stroked her broken hair for Feng'er, "Don't just talk about others, although it is inconvenient to enter the palace in the future, you also have to come to see me as soon as you are free, and if you have a child, you will also bring your child to see me." If it's clever and cute, I can also think of my godson as my daughter. ”
"How can the slave and maid be virtuous, when you are in the boudoir, the girl always says that the slave and the maid are stupid, and I am stupid, how can I give birth to a clever and lovely godson and daughter for the girl. After all, girl, you have your own child soon. "Feng'er knows that Xinyue will raise herself again, she is just a slave, how can her own child become the godson and daughter of the queen of the dynasty.
"I, I already have Lian'er, I just want Lian'er to grow up well, if she has talent, she will be the prince, and if she has no talent, she will be an idle prince. I can also live up to the trust entrusted to me by the first queen. As she spoke, Xinyue subconsciously turned the jade bracelet on her wrist.
"Niangniang, you still have to have your own children, and now in the harem, although it is calm, and there are few people. But after the New Year, there will be a national funeral, after the national funeral, there will be a big draft, and there will be many people and many things at that time, although you are the queen, you still have to have your own children, and your status can be secure. Mama Wang took advantage of this conversation and persuaded Xinyue bitterly.
Xinyue pursed her lips and glanced at Feng'er a little mischievously, this is the tacit understanding between the master and servant for many years, and sure enough, Feng'er understood, and pulled Mama Wang to divert the topic, "Mama, where is His Royal Highness Lian?" I bought a lot of good things for him outside the palace and wanted to give them to him in person. ”
"Your Highness has gone to school, so it's time for lunch, and I'll go get him back." Of course, Mama Wang saw the trick played by the master and servant, so she didn't say anything, glanced at the two of them, and went out.
Fei'er also found an excuse and left, leaving only the pair of master and servant who had grown up together since childhood to talk.
"Girl, you still can't accept Your Majesty?"
Xinyue smiled bitterly, "It's not about accepting or not accepting, but, what else can I do?" ”
Feng'er sighed and said, "The slave maid is outside the palace, but I know some news about King Liang." ”
"Liang Wei? What news can he have? ”
"The slave maid only heard that the queen of Liang died."
Xinyue nodded, it was just something she expected, Liang Guo was like this, if she wanted her son to be the prince, no matter how noble a woman was, she had to die.
When Feng'er heard Xinyue say this, she was a little frightened, "In this way, if it is in Liang Kingdom, the girl still has no children." ”
Xinyue smiled: "I want to stay in Liang Kingdom." The two years I lived in Juxian County were a rare time in my life. ”
"Girl, you said that you yearn for a free life so much, but why was you born in the Houmen Palace." As she spoke, she began to cry again.
"What? Do you pity me? Xinyue was patient and wiped away her tears for Feng'er, "I also enjoy the blessings that ordinary women don't have." ”
"Is this blessing what you want, girl?" As he spoke, Feng'er stomped her foot a little angrily.
"Okay, don't talk about that." Crescent Moon said this, and the two began to talk about other things.
It was already evening when he sent Feng'er away.
Lian'er also came back from school, always holding the warm sleeves that Feng'er made for him, and now it's just the end of September, and the weather is very cold, Xinyue originally planned to make winter clothes for Lian'er after making a belly pocket, and Feng'er is all ready to be sent.
Lian'er heard that Feng'er had left, and said very reluctantly, "It's all to blame on the master, I talked about Mencius for a long time today, I listened slowly, and when I thought about coming back to see Aunt Feng, it was already this hour." Queen Mother, when will Aunt Feng come again? ”
"It's not in vain that Feng'er hurts you, but you remember her. She already has her own small family, and she doesn't serve you anymore, nor does she serve the queen mother. When the queen mother will come next time, I can't say for sure. However, she will send you something every year, you see this sleeve warmer, the queen mother does not have such a good workmanship. ”
"Then this will be given to the queen mother, and the son will have Aunt Fei made for her son before." As soon as Lian'er heard that Xinyue had pity in her words, she immediately began to make Xinyue happy.
"Okay, this is what your aunt made for you. You can keep it so that you don't have to get dirty and break it. Let's go change clothes, wash your hands and eat, today Mama Wang made whitebait soup. ”
"Okay," Lian'er cheered twice, and immediately turned around and went to her room to change clothes and wash her hands.
Lian'er is now six years old, although he is not a little adult, but he also has the appearance of a young man, and he learns to learn words in the study, and he is indeed more sensible than ordinary children of his age, and he is more sensitive earlier.
As soon as the new moon sat down at the dinner table, it was rumored that "Your Majesty has arrived"
Xinyue, who was wiping her hands, was a little stunned and asked Fei'er, "Didn't you say that Your Majesty is going to see Concubine Shu tonight?" ”
"The slave doesn't know, the slave waits for you to take over."
"Whatever he wants, you go and see if Lian'er is here, tell him that his father is here, and he will check his homework and let him prepare one or two." Xinyue still ignored it, and as soon as Fei'er went out through the other door, Rong Ying came in through the main entrance.
Only then did the new moon get up from her chair and curtsied, "I've seen Your Majesty." ”
"It's a coincidence that I came, I smelled the smell of Mama Wang's whitebait soup when I entered the door, it was cold, this sour and spicy whitebait soup was a good remedy for the cold." Rong Ying looked like she was in a good mood, and there was a rare smile between her eyebrows.
