Holding a tea cup in his hand, he caught a glimpse of the fine softness that had been cleaned up on the side, Xia Songshao's expression was complicated, he looked at Cao Ru, who was uncomfortable, and frowned, "Why hide it from me?" I've heard everything about Xi'er. ”

He held his wife's hand and sighed, "It's me who is late, and I have wronged you these days." ”

Cao Ru turned her face away, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and turned her head again, her expression gloomy, "It's okay for the concubine, I've been used to it all these years, but Xi'er has been wronged." ”

A trace of awe flashed on Xia Songshao's face, and his tone was suddenly cold, "We will leave today, and you will not return to this home in the future." ”

Cao Ru smiled bitterly, "After all, the concubine body is from the Cao family, Li Laoyi wants the concubine body back, but the concubine body is still not easy to refuse, not to mention that this time the safety of the Cao family is used as an excuse."

However, it will not be in the future, even if she comes back, the concubine will never bring Xi'er again. ”

Thinking of the reason for coming back this time, Cao Ru sighed, "Fortunately, my husband has not had much contact with the Cao family over the years, even if something happens to the Cao family, it will not affect the Xia family." We will go back this time and will not come again for a long time.

After all, the Cao family is kind to the concubine, and I hope that the Cao family can spend it safely this time, at least to save people. ”

Xia Songshao didn't say a word, he knew that with the Cao family's swaggering style in the past, it would be extremely difficult to dodge this time.

But he wasn't going to tell his wife, lest she feel bad.

Cao Ru wiped her tears and talked about yesterday's incident, "Xi'er said that yesterday in the palace, Sister Ran wanted to push Xi'er into the water, but fortunately, with the help of the concubine's people, Xi'er escaped, but Sister Ran fell into the water because of this, and was rescued by the king of Guojun, and the emperor gave Sister Ran to the king of Guojun." ”

Every time she thought of this, she broke out in a cold sweat and regretted it in her heart.

She shouldn't have promised Li Laoyi to take Xi'er to the palace.

She objected, but Li Laoyiren insisted on taking Xi'er, she couldn't stop it, and she was not qualified to follow.

I didn't expect to almost hurt Xi'er.

Although he had heard it for a long time, after listening to his wife's words, Xia Songshao's face was still cold, his anger filled his heart, and the hand on the table was clenched into a fist.

After a long time, he let go of his fist, his eyes returned to calm, and he held his wife's hand, "Don't worry, this matter will not pass like this, in the end, you and Xi'er are from my Xia family, and it is not her turn to be bullied by the people of her Cao family." ”

At this point, he suddenly paused, and his brows furrowed, "Concubine? ”

Cao Ru bowed her head and smiled slightly, "I heard Xi'er say that the concubine likes her very much, and yesterday fortunately, the people around the concubine rescued her in time, so that Xi'er's reputation was preserved, otherwise...... The concubine didn't dare to think about it. ”

Xia Songshao couldn't help but be surprised, and looked at Xia Xi, "Oh? What did the concubine say to you? ”

Xia Xi deliberately eased the atmosphere and smiled, "The concubine said that Xi'er is like her niece, so she likes Xi'er." Unexpectedly, the concubine Niangniang was not as majestic and terrible as they said, but she was very easy-going, not only with a gentle voice, but also with snacks and candied fruits.

I heard that those dim sum and candied fruit were made by the imperial chef from the palace, and the style is fresh. ”

Xia Songshao looked strange.

Although he knew that Xi'er was beautiful and likable, after all, she was not as good as the girls of the Cao family and the Li family.

If the concubine looked at the girls of the Cao family and the Li family differently, he would not be surprised.

I didn't expect to have such an attitude towards Xi'er.

He was accustomed to the intrigue between merchants, and could easily guess their thoughts.

But they know very little about the minds of these nobles.

He can only attribute Xi'er's optimistic and straightforward temperament to the concubine's favor.

In any case, this is not a bad thing.

The smile on the corner of Cao Ru's lips softened, "The concubine didn't expect such an unexpected joy." With the words of the concubine Niangniang, Xi'er's marriage in the future will be better, and I think there will be many people vying to come to the door to propose marriage. In the future, when Xi'er arrives at her in-law's house, she will also be respected by her in-law's family. ”

Xia Songshao also rarely had a good mood.

Although with his Xia family's net worth and status, it is easy to find a marriage for Xi'er.

However, it can be said that there is an embellishment of the concubine's words, which can be said to be the icing on the cake.

In this way, Xi'er's virtue will not be criticized by anyone.

When Xia Xi heard this, she immediately blushed and stomped her feet, "What did mother say?" ”

Cao Ru covered her mouth and smiled, "Left and right Xi'er will go out of the cabinet sooner or later, and you must always pick one that suits your heart, this is a big deal." ”

Xia Xi turned his head and stopped talking.

Cao Ru suddenly fidgeted a little, and looked at Xia Songshao who was smiling, "The concubine thinks so highly of Xi'er, and she is kind to us, it is said that the concubine should go to kowtow to the concubine to thank her."

However, as a concubine, will you be happy to see a concubine? Will it make people think that we have ulterior motives? ”

Xia Songshao said: "Since you are kind to Xi'er, kowtowing is right, as long as you are open-minded, you don't need to be afraid of his words."

Even if the concubine doesn't have time to see you, it doesn't matter, just kowtow outside, this is etiquette. ”

Cao Ru breathed a sigh of relief and smiled slightly, "What the husband said is very true. ”

Xia Songshao said again: "Chu Li is also here this time, take him with you when you go, he has kung fu, it's hard to say anything else, at least he can block those people in the Cao family." ”

……

Since coming to Jiangning, in addition to doing homework every day, Hongyan follows Yongzheng to the school to watch the Eight Banners parade.

Every time I come back, I will tell Ni Chuhe about the spectacular scene, and his little face is red.

Hongyan danced with his hands and was very excited, "Those Eight Banner soldiers are simply too powerful, and my son will have such skills in the future, bless me in the Qing Dynasty, and expand the territory for the Qing Dynasty." ”

Hong Yan sat upright, listening to Hong Yan's bold words, and his eyes were also full of longing.

Ni Chuhe patted Hongyan's head and scolded fiercely, "Learn the skills in front of you first, if you don't read well, what do you want to expand your territory?" You little brat! ”

Hongyan was aggrieved and covered his head, "E-niang will hit people, hmph, my son will definitely work hard." With that, he clenched his fists, and his eyes shone like stars.

Hongjun grinned at him.

"Go, go, go back to study, be careful of your Emperor Ama training you." Nichuhe kept a straight face and waved his hand.

Hongyan instantly drooped his head and cried with a sad face.

Nichuhe was unmoved.

Hongyan had no choice but to pull Hongyan out angrily.

ran outside, but Hongyan raised his lips proudly, "I've finished my homework, let's go out and play now." ”

Hong Jun's eyes widened, "You're not afraid that the concubine will train you?" ”

He was talking about the concubine, not the emperor.

In his opinion, the concubine is much more serious than the emperor, and how fierce she is in the face of the sixth elder brother.

On the contrary, every time the emperor saw the sixth elder brother, he had an old and relieved expression, and the words he said were all to praise the sixth elder brother for his hard work in studying and encourage him to continue to work hard.

cough, although the emperor has a stern and trembling expression in the face of other princes.

But he was kind to the sixth elder brother.

He understands that his father loves his son, and Amma also likes his fourth brother.

Hongyan raised his chin and didn't care, "What are you afraid of?" Eniang is a paper tiger, not worth mentioning. ”
