The next day, I personally sent some things to Mei Niang, a big bag of jewelry. Mei Niang was taken aback when she opened her cabin, it was not very valuable, it was all for her to reward, she was by His Majesty's side, naturally there would be people who were jealous, and there were places where people wanted to help run errands and do things, most of which were small jewelry and accessories that had always been money, and it was enough to reward the little palace maids and little eunuchs. There are also some valuables that are worth hundreds of dollars that are used to entertain those who are going to celebrate birthdays and festivals. In terms of Li Shimin's character, he won't like Mei Niang to be too public, such a reward will soon reach Li Shimin's ears. Mei Niang is very smart, she also thought about it, looked into my eyes, and didn't understand why I did this. I watched her pick up one and put it in her hand, and she looked at it carefully, it was very beautiful and exquisite, but she also knew that it was not worth much. She immediately understood what I meant.
"My mother wanted to bring in some beautiful silver bills, one or two pieces, and it was easy for you to give a reward. But if you think about it, it is too public, and Your Majesty will be suspicious. These toys are rare in the palace, beautiful and practical, the price is about the same, the most important point is that you are not publicized at this time, a few years ago, the mother was too careful, sometimes too smart and not a mistake is more taboo. You are used to being flamboyant, but you have reined in a little over the years, and Your Majesty transferred you back. But if it is all changed, His Majesty will suspect that this is the emperor's heart, you have to think that you just want to mix up a good popularity with such a reward. Don't try to envelop your Majesty's neighbors. You are so smart that you should know the 'degree', too much! ”
I entrusted the home to Li Niang, everything was arranged, with my mother-in-law and Minzhi, I slowly left Chang'an, out of the city gate, just saw eight hundred urgent fast horses flashing past our car, heading in the direction of Miyagi. I let out a soft breath, but I was able to leave before that.
All the way upstream to play in the mountains and rivers, stop and go to Wenshui for more than a month, when entering Wenshui City, the city gate was pasted with Qi Wang You's rebellion and demotion to the people, and a large number of officials were implicated, I didn't look at it carefully, and went back to the mansion directly. Uncle Xiang came back to clean half a month early, and when he saw us arrive, he came back and went, and they had already come back and lived in an inn in the city. I asked Uncle Xiang to go and ask them to come back, so I said that the Jun family came to borrow it. Uncle Xiang thought about it and nodded, and got into the car.
Sister-in-law Xiang instructed the servants to start cleaning up the courtyard where the second brother lived before, but I forbade her to clean up the guest house, and I took the children to live in the second brother's original courtyard. Sister-in-law Xiang immediately understood what I meant, that is where the second brother and sister-in-law lived, and Ao Xue would be a little uncomfortable going in again!
Not long after, the sound of carriages and horses came, Uncle Xiang led Shiju and them into the house, I personally went to the door, I haven't seen it for six years, Shiju looks a little desolate, Aoxue is still so beautiful, she is in her early thirties is the most beautiful time, she looks radiant. There was a teenager standing next to them, who looked like a gentleman back then, and a girl about the same age as his son, which should be the twins.
"Sister-in-law!" Shiju and Aoxue saluted me, looking distant and restrained, and I smiled.
"Go see my mother, she really misses you." I turned sideways to give way, Ao Xue hurriedly pulled the two children over to call me, I smiled again, and looked carefully, they were all very beautiful children, and their eyes were clear and they were all good children. I took them in, and as a result, I cried again and wiped my tears, I secretly withdrew, looking at the sky and thinking, what should be the situation in the palace?
"Madame!"
"Grandma!" My son and Toshiyuki were standing next to me, probably because the atmosphere in the room was confusing them, so they came out to look for me.
"Want to ride a horse? Let Xiangbo find someone to take you there? "It's still early, so it should be okay to send them to Zhuangzi to play for a while.
"I'm going too!" Nianzu jumped out of nowhere.
The son and the minzhi were startled, and the minzhi went directly into my arms, and the son, after all, is a person who has seen a big scene, and the ability to resist blows is okay, and after quickly regaining her composure, she looked back at me, obviously wanting me to tell her identity, and she will make plans again.
"This is Brother Nianzu, the child of my uncle and aunt's family just now; Nian Zu, this is Mingda, his nickname is Son, he is a child of his aunt's family, and he wants to be a good friend. ”
"Why is it called such an ugly name?" Nianzu was very confused, but quickly patted his son's shoulder, "It's better to call Mingming, Mingming is more like a girl's name." "I laughed dumbly, he really has the demeanor of a big brother, and he changed his name as soon as he came.
The son was stunned for a moment, it is estimated that no one has dared to say that her name is not good since she was born, and she was a little annoyed at first, but Nianzu patted her on the shoulder, her face turned red, and she suddenly forgot what she was going to say.
"Sister son, let's not play with him." Minzhi was unwilling to be left out and reached out to pull the corner of her clothes.
"Is this also a child of my aunt's family?" Nianzu asked me, I was stunned for a moment, laughed again, pulled out Minzhi, and said softly word by word.
"Toshiyuki, this is ...... Uncle! ”
Nianzu, Minzhi, and the three petrified sons, the fastest reaction turned out to be Nianzu, and he screamed and disappeared.
"Madam, I don't need to call me uncle!" The son asked in a low voice.
"Didn't I tell you to call me brother?" I asked her rhetorically, and I laughed out loud as she saw her visibly relieved. Little Toshiyuki is still petrified, and apparently hasn't recovered from the shock yet.
The horse was not ridden, several children knew each other, and Son-in-law and Shuang'er, Nianzu became friends, and Minzhi was completely isolated, because he had to be called Uncle Nianzu, called Aunt Shuang'er, and then when he saw Son, he didn't know whether he should be called Aunt Son-in-law or sister-in-law, and he was in extreme confusion; Besides, Nianzu and Shuang'er don't want Minzhi to be called that, which teenage child wants to be called uncle and aunt with a six or seven-year-old child?
And the old lady finally looked forward to her four generations in the true sense of the word, and his sons, grandsons, and great-grandsons were all in front of her, and there seemed to be nothing more important in her heart, so that night she took the three men to kneel before the old lady's spirit. I can't help but wonder, isn't it true that the old lady knows that grandson in the spirit of heaven?
After a few days of running-in, and of course, the harmony of the son-in-law, the four of them were finally able to play together. I breathed a sigh of relief, said hello to the old lady, and went back to the hut on the hill alone. The hut was cleaned by a special person, and Shitong's tomb was also tidyed up, I sat in the place where I often sat and pretended to sleep against the mound, and called back Shiju, in fact, I didn't have anything to say to him, I just wanted the old lady to see, and more importantly, I wanted to see Nianzu, and wanted to know if I could entrust my son to them. After a few days, I realized that I was really a heartless person, who once thought we were friends, but now we live under the same roof as strangers.
Ao Xue and I chatted, the old man Jun died two years ago, Mrs. Jun collapsed all of a sudden, and she followed in a few days, I comforted a few words, but I knew that this was the best ending, the person who was left behind was actually worse than death, Mrs. Jun had no worries, so she wisely chose a relatively happy ending. But these words could not be said to her, and no one as a child wanted to hear such words.
"Why don't you sleep in the house?" In a cold and stiff tone, I slowly opened my eyes, and Shi Ju and Aoxue stood in front of me with lamps. I smiled, pointed to the stone opposite, motioned for them to sit down, Shi Ju rolled his eyes, I laughed, I finally knew who Mei Niang had learned.
Ao Xue still agreed, pulled the skirt and sat down, and carefully wrapped her thighs with her skirt, no one on the mountain in the middle of the night would want to see it except for ghosts. Shi Ju saw Aoxue sit down, he set up the lamp on the tree next to him, and sat next to her.
