676 Mother and Son
When Mrs. Geng was there, she called him "Jing Yan", and as soon as Mrs. Geng left, she called him "the third child", isn't it just to remind himself that he has more than one son, and if he wants to be valued by him all the time, he must rely on Mrs. Geng to continue to love the house and Wu?
Zhu Jingyan lowered his eyes, his crow-colored eyelashes were thick, just to hide the sneer that flashed in his eyes, and he arched his hand and said very respectfully, "The child knows." The father told the child to stay here for dinner, and the child stayed. ”
"Not only do you want to stay, but you also have to give this king a happy meal." King Ning added.
Since they should all be down, it is not bad to go down a little more, so Zhu Jingyan said very respectfully and calmly, "The child can save it." ”
King Ning smiled with satisfaction.
By the time Mrs. Geng brought someone to set the meal, the atmosphere between the father and son was completely different from Fang Cai. When it came to the banquet, Mrs. Geng was inevitably cautious, and looked at Zhu Jingyun's face from time to time. Although Zhu Jingyan still didn't say much, he didn't reveal Fang Cai's indifference that refused to be thousands of miles away.
Mrs. Geng's mood was eased, that is, she beckoned the father and son to drink and eat, personally helped them to prepare the vegetables, and slightly hesitated to give Zhu Jingyu a handful of dishes, although he didn't say anything, but he didn't refuse, and ate it all, Mrs. Geng was completely relieved, with a smile on her face.
When King Ning saw it, he was naturally happy, so he touched several cups with Zhu Jingyu. In the meantime, Mrs. Geng left for a while, and when she came back, she personally held a bowl of steaming shou noodles in her hand, brought it to Zhu Jingyu and said, "Today is your birthday, and this shou noodle is naturally indispensable." If you can't eat it, you can eat a bite or two, I just hope that after you eat this bowl of noodles, you can be safe and long in the future, free of illness and disaster. ”
The hot air rose up on his eyelashes, and Zhu Jingyan looked at the bowl of noodles with a somewhat stunned expression. After a while, he picked up the bamboo chopstick, sandwiched a basket of noodles and put it in his mouth, as soon as he entered, he looked up at Mrs. Geng in a daze, "This ......" just smelled the smell and felt familiar, I didn't expect this entrance to be the same, it turned out, it was not his illusion.
Mrs. Geng smiled with tears, and King Ning sighed and raised his hand to hug her shoulder, "Over the years, every year on your birthday, your mother will personally make a bowl of longevity noodles for you." Although she can't be by your side, she has always cared for you silently and never forgotten one day. ”
Zhu Jingyan suddenly lowered his head, every time he was born on his birthday over the years, King Ning's mansion had never been as lavishly as Zhu Jingyang and Zhu Jingsheng's birthdays, only a bowl of longevity noodles would be prepared for him in the kitchen every year, that's all, he only thought it was ordered by King Ning, and it was this father who had always treated him coldly, and occasionally had a little love. He took it and felt at ease, but he didn't think of it...... Zhu Jingyan didn't speak, just lowered his head, ate all the remaining noodles in the bowl one by one, and even drank the soup cleanly, just like every year in the past.
Finally, putting the empty bowl back on the table, he raised his head and looked at Mrs. Geng with a peaceful look, "This noodle is still just as delicious." ”
Mrs. Geng still laughed with tears, but there was a lot more joy in that smile, "If you like to eat, I'll make it for you next year." ”
Zhu Jingyan didn't speak, lowered his head, and after a long time, he let out a low "um".
This sound was enough to satisfy Mrs. Geng.
Zhu Jingyan also made this meal as promised before, so that this meal could be enjoyed and enjoyed.
King Ning was really happy, and if he was not careful, he drank two more cups.
When the meal was finished, the smell of wine was a little up, and he hugged Mrs. Geng and said something inconsequential. Although there are cronies all around, but in the end it is not good for people to see, Mrs. Geng personally helped King Ning to go to the room to rest, and when she cleaned up, she thought that Zhu Jingyan was no longer there, who knows, when she entered the flower hall, she saw him standing in front of the half-open window with his hands in his hands, looking at the garden outside bathed in the quiet night.
That back looks really outstanding.
Mrs. Geng walked over holding the things in her hand, and when Zhu Jingyan looked sideways, she slowed down her steps, smiled slightly and handed over the things in her hand, "This is the middle coat I sewed for you with my own hands, which is counted as your birthday gift." My craftsmanship is not good, this size is also with them, I don't know if it fits, don't dislike it. ”
Zhu Jingyan looked down at the plain middle coat, but he just looked at the color of his eyes and did not answer.
Mrs. Geng smiled slightly, realizing that he was a little different from Fang Cai, she lowered her eyes to hide the thoughts in her eyes, and said with a bit of urgency in her words, "You also drank a lot of wine today, it's not early, or go back and rest early!" ”
"Why?" Zhu Jingyu suddenly asked, and when he opened his mouth, there was a faint smell of wine. Maybe it was because he drank wine, otherwise, he would not have asked these words anyway. "After giving birth to me, why didn't you keep me by your side, but send me out of the palace at any cost?"
Mrs. Geng looked stunned, raised her head to look at him in a daze, and did not reply, but her face turned slightly pale.
"Why?" Zhu Jingyan asked again, "Do you know what kind of life I have lived all these years?" I always thought that my mother was a lowly maid, so no one cared about me or valued me in that house, even my father. I was in that nominal home, but I didn't feel the slightest warmth. Originally...... If you keep me by your side, perhaps...... It's different, right? ”
"I'm sorry." Mrs. Geng's face changed, and she suddenly choked up, "Originally...... At the beginning, I hated the first emperor and the palace so much, I couldn't stand it...... I can't stand you in the palace, but you still have to shout his father...... And those who have harmed me, I am afraid that one of my negligence will not be able to protect you. I'd rather be more difficult, I'd rather not see you, and I'd send you out of the palace so that you can be your father's son in a dignified manner. I just wronged you...... But rest assured, your father should pass me, and as long as he ascends the throne, you will be the next prince. ”
Mrs. Geng's eyes were red and swollen, and tears rippled, but she took a step forward, grabbed Zhu Jingyu's sleeve, and looked up at him, her expression was full of contradictory perseverance, "Child, mother knows that she owes you too much, but mother must hold the most precious everything in the world into the palm of your hand." My son will be the lord of the world. ”
There was no expression on Zhu Jingyu's handsome face, and after a long time, he lowered his eyes, but he reached out and pulled Mrs. Geng's hand on his sleeve, "Do you know what Father Fang said to me?" He was reminding me that he was more than just my son. He treats you with deep affection and righteousness, but once he ascends to that position, people's hearts will be cold and unfathomable. ”
Mrs. Geng's face turned two points paler, but only for a moment, she gritted her teeth and said, "We have to supervise the counting." You still have the Yue family of Zhenguohou, which your mother worked hard to get for you, you have to treat the Xie family well, even if she is rude and willful, for the sake of the big plan, you can also wronged yourself and endure her, and you must give birth to a son-in-law as soon as possible. ”
