After being diagnosed by Gui Niangzi, Jin Niang is now pregnant for a month and a half, which is really good news.

It has been almost three years since Jin Niang's last birth. In the past three years, Jin Niang's health has been recuperating well, and she could have had another child a long time ago, but she was worried that Xu Erlang was going to go to Beijing for the scientific examination, and she was worried that she would not be able to go with her when she was pregnant or just gave birth, so Jin Niang and Xu Erlang actually decided to wait until they were stable in the capital and then have a second child. Clinker, people are not as good as heaven, they have just arrived in the capital, and this child came to Xin'er.

While Jinniang was happy, she was also a little afraid, "Fortunately, I have been well raised in the past two years, and I should be careful on the road, otherwise I will ......" Otherwise, maybe they didn't realize the arrival of this child, and they had missed it with him.

Xu Erlang was also afraid, he held Jin Niang's hand, his eyes were surprised and happy, but his palms were clearly in a cold sweat, which showed that he was not at ease.

Xu Erlang said, "Although Gui Niangzi said that this baby is still stable, but it is a bit hard to drive for a month, and your body needs to be cultivated." Let's do this, in the next month, you will have a good life and cultivation, and the affairs of the family will be handed over to Pianpian. ”

Jin Niang opened her mouth to say something, Xu Erlang smiled and kissed her, and Jin Niang immediately closed up with the corners of her mouth crooked. "Haven't you done a good job in the past two years? She's also older, and she knows the severity, so if it's something you don't decide, let her ask you. If you let Mama Qin give her a hand, it's almost over. ”

Jin Niang is not a person who loves power, not to mention that her current body really needs to be recuperated, so after thinking about it, she agreed.

If it was too late today, they couldn't call Mama Qin and Pian Pian to explain the matter, and the husband and wife fell asleep while talking.

When Pian Pian came to Cuibai Garden with Changle early the next morning, Jin Niang hadn't woken up yet. It's Xiao Yu'er and Xu Erlang who have already woken up.

Xu Erlang is leading his daughter to watch the fish.

There is no lake in the Cypress Garden, so the fish are naturally kept in ornamental tanks. There are pink water lilies blooming on the top and red and black koi on the bottom, which looks very meaningful.

Xiao Yu'er saw her sister and little aunt coming, trotted over excitedly, hugged Pianpian's legs, and the little milk voice tore away the delicate "little aunt" and "sister", which made people's hearts tremble.

Pian Pian and Changle had no resistance to this coquettish little ball at all, the two kissed her on the cheek, and then Pian Pian hugged Xiao Yu'er.

First, I asked her, "When did you get up?" Did you sleep well last night? Then he asked her, "What do you want to do today?" Do you want to practice calligraphy with your aunt and sister? ”

Xiao Yu'er answered all the questions in an orderly manner, and only then did she hold her head and give her cheeks affectionately "ba-da" and "ba-da" twice.

Pianpian's heart is beautiful, it's almost heavenly.

Changle was a little greedy, but he could only watch dryly. After all, she is only a little over six years old, and she is still a child, so Xiao Yu'er asked her to hold it, and she was also worried about dropping Xiao Yu'er.

Changle has studied medicine in the past few years, and there is a faint aroma of medicine all over his body, which smells very good, and Xiao Yu'er is also very close to this sister. But just as Changle was worried, Xiao Yu'er was also told by her mother not to work her sister.

My sister was born with a weak disease, and she has been drinking bitter medicine for the past few years, and she has to be acupuncture by Gui Niangzi, and she has to take a medicinal bath, so her body is better. But her illness was brought out of the womb in the end, and it couldn't be relieved at all for a while. According to Gui Niangzi's budget, it will take about three or two days to eradicate the roots.

So although Changle's situation has improved now, she is still weak compared to a little girl of the same age. Although the height does not pull the hind legs, the overall look is not as healthy as other little girls.

Xiao Yu'er did not snub the young lady and talked to her enthusiastically. Do you also ask her about her habits of living in her aunt's yard? Do you want to come back to live in Cuibai Garden, and the two of them sleep together?

Earlier, Changle lived in Cuibai Garden, and before coming to the capital, she also lived in Cuibai Garden like Xiao Yuer.

The sisters live in the same yard, and sometimes they sleep in the same bed and bed, so you can imagine how good the relationship is.

As a result, on the way to the capital, Changle didn't know what to think, so he decided to move out and live with Pianpiao, and Xiao Yu'er was unhappy about it for two days.

And Changle purely feels that she is a big girl now, and she lives with her uncle and aunt again, worrying that others will gossip.

Again, the courtyard where the little aunt lives and the yard of the second uncle are only separated by a wall, and the distance is very close, if she wants to come back, she can enter the door in a blink of an eye, which is also very convenient.

The three little girls smiled and talked, and then entered the flower hall.

Xu Erlang had already come to the flower hall to sit down when they met. He was drinking tea at this time, and the three little girls saw this, and at the same time frowned at the same time.

Pian Pian spoke first, "I haven't eaten breakfast yet, and the second brother is drinking tea again." ”

"If my aunt knew, she would be unhappy. The second uncle should drink it after meals, otherwise it will be bad for the stomach. ”

"Daddy, I'm going to tell my mother that your words don't count."

Xu Erlang: "......"

He put down the teacup as if nothing had happened, called the three little girls to him, and sat down one by one in front of him.

Pian Pian and Changle looked around, but they didn't see Jin Niang, and asked curiously.

Xiao Yu'er took a step ahead of Xu Erlang and spoke, "Mother is working hard, sleeping in the sleep." ”

Changle came into contact with some medical skills, and immediately worried, "Second uncle, is my aunt not feeling well?" ”

Xu Erlang chuckled and shook his head, "No." His smiling eyebrows were clear, handsome and dignified, and his face was full of joy, which showed that Jinniang really had no accident, so that Pian Pian and Changle were relieved.

They also wanted to say a few words, but at this moment Chang'an and Changping also came over, so they didn't say much, gathered for breakfast together, and then dispersed.

When Pian Pian was about to leave, she was stopped by Xu Erlang.

"What are you doing, second brother? I'm going to practice calligraphy. ”

Xu Erlang pondered it, and felt that he couldn't speak. After all, Pian Pian is not a child who doesn't understand anything now, and when he suddenly opened his mouth to talk about this, he was a little embarrassed.

After thinking about it, what the hell did you mean.

Pian Pian was just a surprise when she heard this, rubbing her little hand and almost jumping up in the flower hall excitedly, "Really, second brother?" Do I want to have a little nephew or little niece again? Hahaha, great! That's great! ”

Xu Erlang: "Your sister-in-law has been working hard all the way, and now her body needs to recuperate, so ......"

"I know, I know. Second brother, I don't need you to say it, I know what to do. Isn't it just to take over all the things in the house? It's easy to say, anyway, I've learned almost, and I used to give my sister-in-law a hand in the house, I'm more attentive this time, second brother, you let your sister-in-law give me a hand with Mama Qin next to her, I promise that I will definitely take care of the house properly in the next year, and I will definitely not bother my sister-in-law. ”

After sending Pian Pian away, Xu Erlang returned to the inner room and saw that he was still asleep.

Xu Erlang has an appointment today, Suqian heard that he entered Kyoto, and yesterday he sent a post overnight, asking him to go to Wangxian Tower today for a gathering.

Now that it was time to leave, Xu Erlang had to leave, so he explained a few maids and asked them to prepare their food, and they were woken up by Jinniang, so that she could sleep well, and then get up for breakfast when she woke up.

After explaining this, Xu Erlang changed into a brocade robe and went out, not wanting to meet Xu Chong at the door who was also going out.

Xu Chong thought that the second brother had come to arrest him on purpose, so he couldn't help but rub his nose in surprise. But when he saw that the second brother was also dressed as a going out, he blinked his eyes and smiled, "Second brother, what are you going to do?" ”

"Go to a meeting. What are you doing? ”

"I ...... So he went out for a walk. Hey, hey, second brother, you're busy with you, you don't care about me, I promise not to cause trouble and not cause you trouble. Xu Chong's words fell and he wanted to slip as soon as he took a step, but he didn't want Xu Erlang to speak coldly again, "Stop!" ”

Xu Chong's head drooped down, and his face was a little tense, Xu Erlang just didn't see it, so he said, "Go back and take Chang An Changping out together." Let the Huhe follow you, don't cause trouble, and come back at lunchtime. ”

Xu Chong didn't expect that the second brother not only did not prohibit himself from going out, but also did not reprimand himself, but agreed to let him go out...... He shouted twice in surprise and said, "Listen to the second brother." Then he ran back with joy and shouted Chang'an and Changping.

When Xu Erlang arrived at Wangxian Tower, Suqian was already waiting.

Two years ago, Suqian was admitted to the Hanlin Academy, and now he is an official in the Hanlin Academy.

The Academy has a sound promotion system, and there are large and small examinations every quarter, and those who have made greater progress in the examination or have obtained a relatively high number of places are expected to be promoted.

When Suqian went in before, he was the lowest official, and his treatment was better than that of the doorman who sprinkled and swept it. He is so arrogant and arrogant, naturally he can't stand being ridiculed by others. So I'm really desperate to study and improve.

Fortunately, there will be a receipt in the belly, and Suqian's test results are very good. He has suffered a few times and knows how to be a low-key person, so he is not bad in the eyes of his colleagues and superiors.

No, last year, an official of the Hanlin Academy was promoted to the sixth department, vacating a position, and after layers of promotion, Suqian was successfully promoted to the sixth grade.

Although he is only a six-grade petty official, this is really a great improvement compared to his colleagues who entered the same year and the same year. After all, the officials who were admitted in the same year are still from the sixth or seventh grade, and Suqian, which is not outstanding in performance, has come from behind, so it will inevitably arouse the envy and jealousy of many people.

Because of this, Suqian is very self-satisfied, but this kind of self-satisfaction has decreased a lot after seeing his friend Xu Erlang.

It's rare to have a rest day, and Suqian has used to meet friends who have been absent for a long time. As a result, I haven't seen my friends for more than two years and are still handsome, no, look carefully, it seems that he has become a little more handsome in the past two years, on the other hand, because he has to fight wits and courage with the old fritters of Hanlin Academy, I feel that the whole person has a lot of vicissitudes, and his appearance has plummeted, and now the old man says that he is more than ten years older than Xu Erlang, and some people believe it, which is really sad.

Suqian: "Brother Runzhixian, how many bird's nest snow clams have you eaten over the years?" ”

Xu Erlang caught the stalk thrown by his friend very well, and replied, "I didn't eat much of those things." It's just that if you are in a good mood and in good spirits, you will look young. ”

Suqian: "......" He was in a bad mood and his spirit was not happy, and he exhausted his hard work and energy by fighting wits and courage with people all day long, so he was very old. Heart-piercing!

Suqian was very unhappy, and his eyes were full of grievances as he glared at his friend. Xu Erlang didn't see it, and poured a cup of tea and saluted him.

Suqian's mood instantly stabilized, and the whole person seemed to have returned to his previous wanton rampantness, laughing and saying, "I've been waiting for you to come over for two years." There are friends from afar, and they don't talk about it. Runzhi, let's have a drink today, come and come, let people drink, don't drink tea today, let's drink, don't get drunk and don't return. ”

Xu Erlang shook his head when he heard this, "I'll drink it after a while, and I'll drink tea first today." ”

"Why?"

"When I first came to the capital, my inner son was pregnant, and now there are still many things at home that I need to take care of, and a few small ones also need to be taken care of. Being drunk will only add to the burden on the family, so let's drink tea now. When everything goes well at home, I will set up a table, let's have a few drinks, and I will apologize to my brother. ”

When Suqian heard this, he naturally rejoiced for Xu Erlang.

He himself has three sons, and Xu Erlang has only one daughter so far.

Although he doesn't think there is anything wrong with his daughter, but now in this world, only when he has a son under his knees can he be regarded as having a descendant. In this way, even if there is a case later, there is no need to worry about no one to deal with the aftermath and no one to send it to the end.

So for the fact that a friend may have a child, Suqian is happy for his friend from the bottom of his heart.

Therefore, he also listened to Xu Erlang's advice, stopped drinking, and continued to drink tea.

The two gossiped later, and Suqian couldn't help but talk about the affairs of the Hanlin Academy, as well as some cats and gang politics in the officialdom.

This is what Xu Erlang doesn't know, after all, only people inside the officialdom can more deeply feel the power tilting and gangs, as well as various obscure means and power struggles.

Su Qian didn't say it deeply, just to the point, but the things he said happened to be related to Xu Erlang - the imperial court has already competed for the position of chief examiner for next year's Spring Festival. All the characters have come to an end, and it's really eye-opening to tear it up.

Among them, the prince and the young master, the servant of the ministry, the competition in the faction is particularly fierce, I heard that these second-grade masters are fighting for each red face in the court, if they don't care about their own face, they can't think of a big fight, and they will beat the opponent on the ground.

Of course, these are all small minions who show up, and the big guys who are really behind them are not on the scene, but only responsible for commanding.

These Suqian nodded vaguely, and Xu Erlang instantly understood.

Later, Suqian said, "So far, I haven't come up with a reason, and I can't think of it until a few days before the Spring Festival, and this matter can't be decided." ”

Xu Erlang didn't speak, only arrived at a cup of tea and handed it to Suqian. Su Qian took it and drank it, and said, "Your Majesty also allows the two factions to fight, and the right to watch the excitement and not speak, otherwise it won't be able to make trouble to this point." ”

When Xu Erlang heard this, he said, "Brother Su is cautious." ”

Suqian: "That is, in front of you, I can say a few words of truth." In the past two years in the Hanlin Academy, I have really cultivated into a mute. I didn't dare to say anything, so I was afraid that I would inadvertently say the wrong thing and leave a handle on people. ”
