"Why didn't you tell me about this earlier?" Du Ling's face complained, and he said two days earlier that he could be fully prepared. If you want it the day after tomorrow, you can only find an embroidery girl to catch up. It's just that the clothes that come out of this way are definitely not as good-looking as the stitches and threads patiently embroidered on weekdays.

"Mother, it's not that I don't want to say it. It's just that my daughter only found out today, and Sister Fenfang only called me eldest brother, and she didn't think about me at all. If it weren't for the good relationship between Orange Rose and Sister Fragrant's girl, this kind of news would not be available. ”

Du Ling's eyes flickered, nodded and said, "It's still this girl's cleverness, and it's not in vain that I let you go to great lengths to please her." Now that she can stand by your side and think about you, my mother will be relieved. ”

Du Zilin sneered: "It's still my mother's foresight, but mother, hurry up and call Xiuniang, I don't want to be ridiculed by everyone then." I want everyone to know that I, Du Zilin, am the eldest lady of Du Mansion, and my clothes must be the best. ”

To put it bluntly, Du Zilin wanted to go to that banquet, first, to catch the golden beetle, and second, to show off. Now that she is the only lady in Du Mansion, how can she not show off on this occasion, otherwise she will be so sorry for what she did at the beginning.

"Okay, you go back to your yard first, and my mother will order someone to call Xiuniang. You put one hundred and twenty hearts, and then your mother will definitely make you the most dazzling woman. ”

Du Lingshi nodded Du Zilin's forehead, watched her walk away, and then turned cold: "Come on, release Bigui for me!" ”

In order to appease Bigui, Du Ling rewarded her with a jade bracelet and gave her an extra two months of moon silver. After being appeased here, I listened to the report of the girl outside: "Madam, the master is back!" ”

Du Lingshi didn't think that Du Heng would come back so soon, and he wouldn't come back before the New Year. At the same time, I was secretly glad that Du Zilin came to make trouble today, otherwise I was afraid that she would still be in the room with Du Kun. At that time, the smell in the room can be concealed by Du Zilin, but not from Du Heng.

Du Lingshi took a closer look at the room, and after there was no problem, he went to the study.

"Master, you're back. I've heard that the snow is getting heavier and heavier outside, and I'm worried that you won't be able to come back in the New Year. It's good to come back, come back and wait to accompany us for the New Year, let's go out! ”

Du Lingshi held a cup of ginseng tea in his hand and handed it to Du Heng, with a hint of worry in his coquettish voice.

"No, this year's snow is really heavy. This road is really not easy to walk, and I don't know if those ordinary people have been affected. Yi Yi doesn't know where it is, I don't know what is going on now, hey! ”

Du Ling, who originally wanted to please Du Heng, heard this, and his eyes flashed with a trace of ruthlessness. But in the blink of an eye, it quickly disappeared.

"yes, that kid is stubborn too. It's come to this, no matter what, this is her home after all, how can she not even want a home. Hey, it's so sad. ”

Seeing that his daughter-in-law was worried about Du Yi's affairs, Du Heng hugged her tightly into his arms: "Madam, the things in this house are so hard for you." ”

"What did the master say, sharing worries and solving problems for the lord is what a concubine should do. It's just that this was originally Yiyi's, hey! Well, when she comes back, I'll give her back. lest those who do not know think that we are usurping her dowry. It's just that I pity Zhigao, and Iyi have no fate after all. ”

"Zhigao, don't worry. After a while, I'll help him find a good one. Well, it's almost the New Year, don't sigh, it's unlucky. ”

Du Heng patted Du Ling's back, picked up the ginseng tea, took a sip, and felt more energetic. For some reason, Du Lingshi suddenly asked The strong smell of ginseng tea surged up in his throat.

Seeing that something was wrong with Du Ling, he covered his mouth and ran to the side to vomit, Du Heng was startled. Then he shouted: "Come on, go and ask the doctor!" ”

Du Lingshi suddenly felt bad, how could this scene be so familiar. Thinking about it carefully, there have been more than two months of future monthly letters, could it be that there is?

The doctor is still coming, and Du Heng is by his side. Du Lingshi made a color to Bigui, saw her nodding, and said to Du Heng: "Master, the slave maid will help Mrs. go back to the room first." You've just come back, so you might as well go wash up. When I washed up, I guess the doctor came. ”

Du Heng thought about it, he couldn't wait here, so he nodded. By the time he arrived at the Aster Pavilion, the doctor had already arrived, and was writing a prescription. And Du Ling, Bigui and the others had a happy look on their faces, and when they saw him, they hurriedly said: "Congratulations to the master, congratulations to the master, Mrs. is happy." ”

Du Heng was stunned for a moment, and some couldn't react. @樂@文@小@说|

Bigui covered her mouth and chuckled: "Madam, you see that the master is so happy that he is stunned!" ”

Hearing Bigui's words, Du Heng saw the banter in Du Ling's eyes, and his old face turned red. He never thought that Du Ling's age, he was actually an old clam and a pearl, and he could still have an old man.

"Madam, I'm going to be a father again, how many months have our children been?" After reacting, his face was extremely happy, and he hurriedly stepped forward to take Du Ling's hand, and looked at her cautiously, as if he was a rare treasure in front of him.

"Old man......"

Du Heng hadn't spoken to Du Lingshi like this for a long time, Xu thought of the scene when the two had just married and had their first child, Du Ling's face was filled with a happy smile. A shy, speechless look.

"Whoa!" Although Du Lingshi didn't answer his question, Du Heng, who was already dizzy with joy, didn't mind at all. Seeing the blush on Du Ling's face, the smile on his face couldn't help but deepen by three points, as if he had returned to the time when he was newly married Yan'er.

But soon he turned around, looked at Bigui and the many maids waiting in the house, and said: "Today the lord is happy, and the people in the house will each reward a month's moon silver." In addition to the consultation fee, the doctor will be rewarded with an additional ten taels of silver. Du Heng, who was in a good mood, couldn't wait for everyone to know his joy.

"Thank you for the reward!" The servants inside and outside the Ziyuan Pavilion knew the news, and a happy smile bloomed on their faces.

Bigui thought that she had suddenly increased her monthly silver by three months today, and her mood was even more excited. glanced at Du Heng, immediately dismissed the maid and mother and others in the room, followed the doctor to get the medicine, and did not forget to close the door before leaving.

"Madame, now that you have a child, you have to take care of yourself. Leave the affairs of the family to the housekeeper, don't worry so much. If you want to eat, just tell the housekeeper, and the husband will explain it. ”

Du Lingshi leaned on the bed, his hand was tightly wrapped in his hand by Du Heng, and the expression on his face was as gentle as water. Hearing Du Heng's words, he nodded from time to time.

"Master, the day after tomorrow is the banquet at the Lingguo Mansion, when the time comes, Lin'er and Zhigao will go, I am inconvenient now, you can arrange someone to take care of you when you go back."

"Yes!" Du Heng nodded and replied. He came back this time because he knew about this banquet and didn't want his children to participate in it. He knew better than anyone else the purpose behind this banquet.

Du Zhigao is a scholar, and he understands that participating in a banquet like the Ling Guo Mansion is only good for him, not harmful. He is young, but at the age of seventeen, he is already a lifter, and he will be able to participate in the examination in two years, which can be said to have a bright future.

Ling Fenfang took him to this kind of banquet to pave the way for his future officialdom. He knew this better than anyone else, otherwise, with his identity as the son of an imperial merchant, Ling Fenfang would definitely not marry him.

He's not a fool and understands. It is true that Ling Fenfang has a little affection for him, but more importantly, one, he has a future, and two, Du Fu has silver.

Now the court is in chaos, and the emperor is critically ill. The emperor has only one prince and one adopted son, and all the princes and princes of the feudal kingdoms are staring at that position. Just waiting for the emperor to die, he is ready to fight.

In today's court, various gangs are formed. With the support of power, there must also be money. And Tadu Mansion, it is precisely because of the abundance of silver that it has attracted everyone's attention. Otherwise, in the past few years, how could the people in the dignified mansion be so polite to him? It's nothing more than wanting him to contribute to the Du Mansion.

Even if Du Zhigao understands it in his heart, he is an ambitious and ambitious person. When the court was in chaos, he wanted to take a kick. When the time comes, if the person he supports is in the position, it will naturally be indispensable for his benefits.

There was originally a sneer on the corner of Du Zhigao's mouth, but facing Ling Fenfang, who was sitting in the octagonal pavilion, a trace of light flashed in his eyes, and his face softened.

Even if I understand that the reason why the two are affectionate and affectionate, it is more because of external factors. But this does not rule out that both of them have real feelings.

"Brother Du, I haven't seen you for many days, but are you okay?" Every once in a while, Ling Fenfang would come to see Du Zilin's identity and come to talk to Du Zhigao.

Ling Fenfang is wearing a milky white mixed rice and red satin skirt today, with rusty water lines and nameless colors, irregularly made with many gold and silver lines, snowcat fluff, and a colored chain around her waist, on which there are many treasures and strange things, which are gorgeous and dazzling.

The cover is purple and black with gold edges, slightly mixed with milky white lines, the brocade robe will cover the glory of the skirt, the slender waist is not enough, and the upper hand is tied with a colorful brocade inlaid with exquisite jade. The ten nails of the jade hand are dyed with lilac hyacinth, and the left middle finger has a ring, which is not luxurious but very attractive.

Hao wrist wears a single exquisite inlay gold edge engraved auspicious cloud Zirui, and the right wrist with a back-covered hand ripple tied to the ring finger. The feet are wearing light blue and light white peony rust shoes, and they are pretty.

The jade face has light makeup, and the color shadow is beautiful and sultry, and you will get it without realizing it. The big glazed eyes were shining, like black dazzling stones, the eyes were fleeting, and the cherry sip vermilion was not dotted and glamorous and seductive.

Double earrings Pei Lingling made a sound like a curtain of glittering and glowing, a hair gently pulled slanted by the ploughshares, on which a delicate hanging hairpin was obliquely inserted, the middle of which is distinguished by butterfly glass and other jewelry hand, the next row of delicate and ingenious delicate and gorgeous drape.

The charming beauty of dynamic luxury flashes between the whole person's demeanor, and the unique charm is added to the beauty of the two solitary faces, which is like a country and a city, and seems to be floating like a fairy, which makes people can't help but be stupid.

"Well, what about you?" Du Zhigao's eyes were full of affection, and his voice was soft, for fear that he would suddenly surprise the stunning beauty.

Du Zhigao is wearing a green robe embroidered with green patterns today, covered with a bright silk milky white cardigan back. The robe is turned upside down and tucked into the white jade belt around the waist, and white deerskin boots are worn on the feet to facilitate walking in the snow.

Her jet-black hair was neatly combed in a neat bun on the top of her head, nestled in a delicate white jade crown. The originally cold face is overflowing with tenderness at the moment.

"I'm okay too!" Ling Fenfang looked at Du Zhigao blankly, and then blushed cheeks.

Du Zhigao realized his gaffe, coughed pretendedly, and then said: "The banquet will be held the day after tomorrow, are you still busy at home?" If there's anything you need help with, just say it! ”

Ling Fenfang shook her head, then remembered something, and said, "When I first came, I seemed to hear that your mother was pregnant?" ”

Hearing the news, Du Zhigao, who was originally soft-faced, flashed a trace of disdain in the depths of his eyes, and a faint mockery rose at the corners of his mouth.

"You, aren't you happy?" Ling Fenfang asked extremely carefully.

Du Zhigao didn't speak, Ling Fenfang looked around vigilantly, except for the girl who was guarding outside the pavilion, there was no one else, and then he said, "Brother Du, don't be unhappy." You're so old, what can your mother do even if she's pregnant? You are her son-in-law, and you will not need to inherit this business in the future. ”

Du Zhigao stood up at this time, with his hands behind his back, walking back and forth.

"Brother Du, if you don't like him, that's fine. You also know that birth, old age, sickness and death, human nature, isn't it? Ling Fenfang's words were very vague, but everything that should have been mentioned was said.

It's just that she didn't want Du Zhigao to put his eyes on the small house, so she said: "After the New Year, it's time for me to be in time." My father's meaning, taking advantage of the banquet, to settle the family affairs. When I pass through the door, you don't have to worry about it. Brother Du, you are a person who does great things, you shouldn't put your mind on this, remember, there is me in everything! ”

Du Ling, who was on the rise, didn't know that the piece of meat in his stomach had been remembered. At this time, she was leaning on Du Heng's arms, and said sweetly: "Master, this child is destined for us." The night you came back last time you had some wine, I didn't think it would be just like that, with him. ”

Du Lingshi did not say the specific time, blurring the matter, but also answered the previous thing that Du Heng said about how old the child was. It's just that his eyes are lowered, the corners of his mouth are slightly raised, one hand is placed on his lower abdomen through the quilt, and he strokes it gently, and the other hand under the thin quilt is clenched into a fist.

"Hehe......" Du Heng was in a very happy mood, and he believed in Du Ling's words.

Fengxian Garden.

"Congratulations, Miss Hexi, from today onwards, there will be another little master or little miss in our Du Mansion." As soon as the embroidery girl went down, Orange Rose walked in with a plate of jujube cakes with a happy face.

Du Zilin raised her eyebrows, her eyes flashing with doubts: "Orange Rose, make it clear, what's going on?" ”。

Du Zilin, who was originally lying on the recline, looked lazy and a little drowsy, and when she heard Orange Rose's words, she immediately came to her senses, but her face was inexplicably impatient.
