Chapter 35: Worship
In the Songhe Hall, Chai Lao Taijun leaned on the step, squinting and listening to the book with enjoyment, and there was a beautiful female fairy standing below, and when she saw Rong Yanzong coming in, the female fairy's breathing stopped for a beat, and her mouth was also stuck.
It took a while to find his soul, and just as he was about to speak, the old lady waved his hand in disgust: "Okay, okay, it's useless, get out of here, don't be embarrassed here." Although Mrs. Chai was proud of his own son-in-law, he was not happy that he was remembered by such a plaything in the house.
The fairy's face was flushed, but she secretly screamed in her heart, afraid that she would be disgusted by the old lady, but now there was no place for her to speak, so she had to bow her head and leave respectfully.
Rong Yanzong didn't hold it either, and walked directly to his mother and sat down, at this time, where was there still a righteous and mighty person in front of outsiders, Chai Lao Taijun said angrily: "I am still busy with the affairs of Lord Zhenbeihou, and I don't have time to accompany my bad old woman to eat." ”
"Mother, look at what you said, isn't your son here, if he is here, then you will accept it when you see it, what do you have to say, I am not one of those ladies in the house, I have so much time to accompany you to play the front."
Mrs. Chai punched him on the shoulder angrily, and said angrily: "Who is this for, not for you, a debt collector, you don't have a proper shape all day long, which year are you going to let the old lady hold her grandson?" ”
When Chai Lao Taijun was young, he galloped on the field with the grandfather of the old country, and his personality was the most spicy, but now that he is old, his children and grandchildren are full of self-restraint and temper, and he put up the old lady's money, but he is always in front of his own son, and he can't control his temper.
"Mother, dissipate your anger, if your nephews and nieces see you like this, what should they think of you, in their eyes, you are the kindest grandmother." Rong Yanzong knows his mother's temper the most, so he has to touch the hair to appease him.
The old lady said disdainfully: "What if you see it, the old lady is still their grandmother, don't change the topic for me, do you have to let me go out in person, my vision is much better than your dead ghost father, I am sure to pick a clever daughter-in-law for you to come back." ”
Rong Yanzong knew that the old man was really in a hurry, and said lightly: "Mother, don't worry, my son has his own plans in his heart, Zuo is only two years late, and he will always let you hold your grandson as you wish." ”
Old Mrs. Chai knew her son's temperament very well, and she also knew that it was useless to talk too much, so she had to persuade softly: "Otherwise, then Aunt Ning from the other courtyard will be used first?" Anyway, your wife's reputation for taking concubines without passing through the door has spread, and I don't mind if my husband is the eldest son. ”
Rong Yanzong subconsciously frowned, and said unhappily: "Mother, you should know, if I make up my mind, it will never change, I said it at the beginning, if I don't like it, I will send her out to marry, she is still finished, marrying an ordinary man, it is also made, now she doesn't want to go, it's just that, I settled her in another courtyard, she still doesn't stop, if there is another moth, I will directly drive people away." ”
Chai Lao Taijun was a little unbearable and said: "If you kick her out, I'm afraid she won't have a way to live, and in the end she is just a helpless poor person, although her brother is still there, she may be sold once, and she can be sold a second time, let her stay in another hospital for the elderly, and our family will not lack this mouthful of food." ”
Rong Yanzong sneered and said disdainfully: "At the beginning, I was the same as my mother, thinking that she was really sold by my brother, but later I learned that she was deeply thoughtful, her brother picked a solid village for her, she didn't want to, she wanted to climb the dragon and the phoenix, and it happened that you ran into it again, everything was just a misunderstanding, I also listened to your words at the time, and made a hasty decision, and now she doesn't leave, I don't know what to do." ”
Chai Lao Taijun didn't believe that she looked away, and said a little uneasily: "No, she is gentle and gentle, how is it not like what you say, if you don't like it, let her be, if she is still a demon, I will definitely drive her out, and I will not be soft-hearted." ”
Although he is old and a little soft-hearted, but Chai Lao Taijun is not a person who can't be twisted, Rong Yanzong also knows that it is not good to talk too much at once, so he changed the topic and asked: "Mother, I heard you say that I used to have a deep relationship with the Queen Mother, but now that she is back, why didn't you enter the palace to take a look." ”
Mrs. Chai followed her son's words and said: "Didn't I hear that the Queen Mother was a little sick on the way back, thinking that she would recuperate for a few more days, I was about to hand over a post to ask for a meeting." Rong Yanzong took the opportunity to say: "Then let's just wait a few days later, just wait for the county lord of Kangping to return to the palace, and you can also look at people." ”
Mrs. Chai was taken aback, "What did you say?" Didn't I hear it, you let me take a look at the county lord? What do you think? "It was a real surprise.
Rong Yanzong didn't hide it, and said honestly: "You don't get excited, but you are a little moved, you want to know more, that girl is not an ordinary person, even if you can't befriend her as you think, it is beneficial and harmless to be friendly with her." ”
For her son's keen intuition, Mrs. Chai still believes it, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I must take a good look at that girl, although the queen mother's temperament is a little uncertain, but she is not a bad person, the granddaughter she taught, at least not too bad, there are some rumors recently, saying that she made the crown prince suffer a loss, is a powerful character, want me to say, the girl's family is still better, so that it can support the court." ”
As long as it is his own son, Chai Taijun has not said anything bad, and he is eager to marry someone home immediately, and give her a white and fat grandson, the more he thinks about it, the more he thinks that the county lord is good, has a good background and a good brain, and will be able to live harmoniously with his son in the future.
Wei Baofu and his entourage finally arrived at the hot spring Zhuangzi before dark, although it is in the suburbs of Beijing, but it is not desolate, because there are hot springs in this area, there are many people who build houses here, and the descendants of the hot spring Zhuangzi, the emperor also gave Wei Baofu the master.
Since he is the emperor's person, the rules are naturally excellent, Wei Baofu got out of the carriage, and the girls and mothers-in-law came up and waited carefully, they have been worried since they knew that they were rewarded by the emperor to the lord of Kangping, for fear that the new master would be disgusted, and naturally wanted to behave well.
Wei Baofu is not a picky person, she didn't plan to use this hot spring Zhuangzi to do anything confidential, so naturally she didn't have to avoid people's eyes, and the emperor's people were not unusable.
Although there was a thick mattress on the carriage, it was always a little uncomfortable after a long time, Wei Baofu felt that his bones were a little scattered, and he had no appetite, so he simply freshened up and went to lie down in the house.
Linglong sent the people in the house away, and told Pearl to make some porridge so that his master could eat it when he was hungry at night, although Wei Baofu did not have the habit of eating supper at night, but in the end he still prepared some more assured.
Maybe it's closer to her parents in this life, Wei Baofu's heart is not a taste, she didn't show it too obviously, and woke up before dawn in the morning.
Linglong was on duty last night, heard the sound, walked to the bed with a smile and said: "Master, in the middle of the night last year, Guard Ye came back, he said that the matter had been done, that person was beaten fifty boards, and asked for half a life, although he bit this matter has nothing to do with others, it was his own drunkenness and mistake, but Guard Ye still found out, the person behind this is the second prince." ”
Wei Baofu was not surprised, everyone said that the second prince was a waste, but he was able to leave the palace early and open the mansion without being with the prince, it can be seen that this person is not as unbearable as the outside world rumores, and only the eldest princess can make the second prince take action.
"Even if this matter is over, as long as the eldest princess doesn't take the initiative to provoke it, I will gently expose it, and don't mention it to my grandmother when I go back." Wei Baofu was not very interested, and his speech was a little wilting.
Linglong nodded obediently in agreement, Wei Baofu glanced at her, and said in a low voice: "Find me a plain dress, today, I am going to worship my father and the princess." Linglong was stunned, and looked at Wei Baofu without saying anything.
Wei Baofu couldn't see this girl's thoughts, and comforted with a smile: "It's okay, if I don't go here to worship them, what will others think of me, filial piety is the duty of a child, even if it is the emperor, he can only praise me." ”
"The slave is not worried about this, since I came here last night, there is something wrong with the master, and the slave is worried that you will feel uncomfortable." is by her side when she is young, where can you not see her fragility at the moment.
Wei Baofu shook his head and said calmly: "I have been worshipping them on the tablet all these years, and now it's time to go to the imperial tomb to have a look, I'm not as fragile as you think." ”
There is pain, after all, it is the purest love she has ever had, those two are the people who love her the most in the world, but it has come to this, except for accepting and facing it, Wei Baofu does not want to have other emotions.
Linglong didn't persuade her, she knew better than anyone what her master's temperament was, took out a white skirt from the cage, and said softly: "It's windy today, and the master has to put on a cloak." This blue-gray one is shorter, so it's just right to use at this time. ”
Wei Baofu is not picky, she is waiting to freshen up, and after breakfast, Ye Feng took a team of people to escort the imperial mausoleum.
Hot Spring Zhuangzi is not far from the imperial mausoleum, it is only half an hour by carriage, Wei Baofu has only been here once, or when his father died, and now there are still some memories, they all said that the father and the mother were buried together, but Wei Baofu is not sure whether his mother is here.
But seeing that there were fresh offerings in front of the tombstone, and the tombstone was also spotless, it can be seen that the mausoleum keeper took care of it very carefully, she knelt down and solemnly kowtowed three times, her eyes were a little moist, and she choked up and said: "Father, mother, and daughter have come to see you." ”
In her previous life, she was an orphan, she never knew what family affection was, she had it in this life, but it was so short, Wei Baofu never complained, she firmly believed that only if she was strong enough, she could have more and protect more.
