"Lei'er, for the four of you brothers, I only feel ashamed of Xiao Yao. Now that he is older, I will ask your grandmother to choose a good daughter-in-law for him, and as for the position of the son, when he returns, I will talk to him. ”

Seeing that Xiao Leiyan was about to say something, Xiao Jing raised his hand to stop it, and sighed: "I believe that my father believes that he is not a person who must compete for the title, and besides, he is good at writing, you are stronger than martial arts, and there is no conflict." ”

Xiao Lei said with a smile: "The fourth brother is a Wenqu star, and several of us are reckless people, how can we compare." ”

Xiao Jing looked at the mighty and majestic Xiao Lei and said with a smile: "However, my title will be passed on to you in the future." Otherwise, Xiao Yao would not be able to convince the public, nor would he be able to defend Shanhaiguan. ”

"Father, don't worry, one day with me, unless the Jurchen barbarians step on my corpse, they will definitely not be able to enter the pass!"

Xiao Lei's oath was sonorous and powerful, Xiao Jing's face finally eased a lot, and he turned to defense: "Lei'er, this year is locked up in a great drought, and there is a plague, and the Jurchens have suffered heavy losses. Perhaps, this year's winter will come to grab grain, you have to do a good job of defense, send more people to inspect, and report anything unusual! ”

"Yes, don't worry, father! My second brother and I took turns to stay in the camp, and we would never let our guard down! ”

Seeing that his father's expression softened, Xiao Lei said tentatively: "Father, grandmother and mother, haven't you let go yet?" ”

Xiao Jing was a little distressed, and said helplessly: "Xie is already terminally ill, and the doctor said that it will be a year and a half at most, and she insists that Xiao Yao come back." Your grandmother disagreed. ”

Xiao Lei was a little lost, and said: "This is also human nature, I didn't spend a day on my mother's knees, and now I suddenly want to be named, no wonder my mother is unwilling." It's just that I didn't expect that my mother's body was already so bad. ”

"It's all my fault. I am worthy of the four of you, mother and son, but I can't stand Xie and Xiao Yao. What you owe them in this life can only be repaid in the next life. ”

The older he gets, the more guilty Xiao Jing feels about Xie.

Although he doesn't like Xie, Xie is his wife who is hired by three media, six times, and eight sedan chairs to marry home. He let her stay a widow for the rest of her life, and he didn't let her have the right to be a housewife for a day, so he really couldn't live with her.

Now that he is middle-aged, he is about to wither, and Xiao Jing is really ashamed.

"Father, don't worry, with me for a day, naturally there will be a place for the fourth brother in this family. When he was admitted to the Jinshi, I would move around, and when I saw that he liked it in Liaodong, I would arrange it for him there. ”

Xiao Jing was very satisfied with Xiao Lei's statement, and said with a smile: "You have the bearing of an eldest brother like this." When Xiao Yao comes back, I will naturally tell him that he is not qualified for the title of Marquis of Weiyuan, and his father will compensate him separately. ”

The father and son discussed for a while, and then separated, Xiao Lei went back to his yard, and Xiao Jing went to Kangning Hall.

"Mama Wei, please pass it on, I want to say hello to my mother."

"Master Hou, the old lady has just drunk the medicine and is resting, I'm afraid it's not very convenient. Hou Ye should come back another day? ”

Mama Wei was the dowry girl of the lord of Fuling back then, so her identity was different from that of ordinary grandma. When talking to Wei Yuanhou, he is not as respectful as ordinary people.

Xiao Jing smiled and said, "Mama, my mother drank the medicine, and I, as a son, can also serve me." ”

Mama Wei smiled slightly, neither humble nor arrogant: "The old lady can't afford to be the servant of the Hou Ye." I only hope that the next time someone insults the old lady in front of Hou Ye, Hou Ye can stand up. After all, the old lady was conceived in October and was born after nine deaths, so it is good to defend the old lady verbally. Don't just ask for something. ”

Xiao Jing had a ghost in his heart, and he was ashamed, so he retreated.

Mama Wei then instructed the guards at the door: "Remember, you are the old lady's people, not the people of the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion, don't know what your surname is!" ”

After reprimanding the guards guarding the door, a little maid hurriedly reported: "Mama Wei, go and take a look, the old lady vomited again." ”

Mama Wei hurried to the inner room, the lord of Fuling had just vomited, and after the maids cleaned up, she was lying on the bed resting.

"Old lady, what's the matter? Why do you keep it up again? ”

Lord Fuling waved his hand and said with a weak smile: "When people are old, eating things that have to be restrained is all caused by greed. ”

Xiuyue next to her said in a low voice: "No, obviously the old lady listened to it, and reported the Yue family's scolding words, and she was angry." ”

Mama Wei sank her face, "Who is it?" ”

Lord Fuling waved his hand, asked everyone else to step back, and patted the side of the bed with a smile: "Ah Xin, come and sit." ”

"Old lady, that Yue is a crazy woman, don't worry about her."

Lord Fuling sighed and moved her back uncomfortably, and Mama Wei hurriedly put it back on her, and she leaned on comfortably.

"I didn't care about her, and I didn't give birth to her. It's just that Ah Jing'er listened to her insulting me, but she didn't do anything, which is what makes me the saddest. ”

Mama Wei didn't know where to persuade her, so she had to say: "Old lady, in fact, the Hou Ye came to visit you just now, and it was the slave who dared to persuade her to retreat." ”

"You don't have to say good things for him, since I let him have a round house with Xie Lan, he doesn't recognize me as a mother."

Lord Fuling was a little regretful, but he didn't regret it, without that night, how could there be a good grandson like Xiao Yao? Speaking of which, it's almost time to make a list for the exam, Ah Yao said that he will come back this year, waiting for his good news.

Mama Wei didn't want to persuade her anymore, so she turned to another thing, which was something that Lord Fuling was interested in.

"County Lord, do you think we should hold an osmanthus banquet to entertain the young lady of the right age? According to the old slave, Miss Yi of the Bei'an County Mansion is also good. ”

The corner of the Lord of Fuling raised his eyes slightly, and he sighed: "It's a pity, the emperor doesn't have a princess, otherwise Ah Yao's appearance and demeanor will definitely be a candidate for a horse." ”

"Old lady, although the emperor doesn't have a princess, doesn't he have a pearl in his palm? Maybe the little young master took the top prize in the capital exam, and was taken by the Empress Dowager Zhong and the lord of Mingzhu? ”

The more Mama Wei thought about it, the more she felt that it was appropriate, Princess Liuyue was very outstanding back then, and she married the first beautiful man at that time, Gu Dian, the son of Guanwen Hou.

The daughter born is definitely not bad, worthy of a young master like Xianjun.

Lord Fuling smiled dumbly, and said softly: "If Ah Yao grew up in the capital, it would be a little possible for his childhood sweetheart." Didn't you read the message last time? Even the county lord of Changle in Chenliu's mansion was cut off his title because of Gu Fanghua, and several princes rushed to offer their courtesy, can they get A Yao's turn? ”

Mama Wei muttered, "Anyway, I think the little young master is the best." ”

And Xiao Yao, who was called the little young master by Mama Wei, was resting at the post station at this time. Zhong Zibin arranged the defense very thoroughly, and several men were drinking together.

Gu Fanghua and Zhong Taojiao each bathed and changed their clothes first, and then came out to sit with everyone.
