Not only Chu Xiangzhi was anxious about family affairs, but Second Mrs. Chu was also anxious. She went out to Du's house early in the morning, and Lord Du lost some ground, but Mrs. Du was a friend, and Mrs. Chu wanted to talk to her.

"Have you inquired about my daughter's relatives?" The second lady said that Mrs. Du's heart was filled with sadness and happiness. Your daughter wants to marry a dramatist, and the drama is born upright, and she is attached to the Zhongshan Palace. My daughter is married to an adult thing, and she has never been with the Yue family.

Seeing the second lady urging, Mrs. Du pretended to comfort: "Don't worry, you can admit it." Second Mrs. Chu almost slapped the table: "I'm not in a hurry!" Dare to love is not your daughter. "Mrs. Du thought to herself, my daughter was changing clothes at the lower part of your Chu family, and it should be Chu Huaixian who came out that day. Ran out of a Master Gong, I haven't looked for your family yet.

"Say, you've always had a claim." Second Mrs. Chu and Mrs. Du have been friends for many years, and they admit that they are not as good as Mrs. Du in terms of ideas. Mrs. Du smiled bitterly again, and came up with a brilliant idea, but she sent the girl to the position of the young lady. Facing Second Mrs. Chu's anxious eyes, Mrs. Du said coldly: "I want to have an idea, and I will also help our master." ”

lest he sigh all day long in the house. And as soon as people lose power, they seem to get along with Zhang Cheng, and they also think that Master Du does not love himself.

Second Mrs. Chu was bitter: "What should I do?" My son is not mine, and my daughter is not married to someone I chose, and he will definitely not be good to me in the future. It's okay that the sister-in-law came back to take care of the housework, she was loose with her hands on me, this good life can't last long, Huaixian's one has it, give birth to a son, she doesn't go to heaven yet! ”

When it comes to Lin Xiaochu, Mrs. Du hates it, her daughter is planted in her hands, and it seems that she is sending her a gust of wind in a flat step. Mrs. Du smiled lightly: "What's this, you and her are good." ”

"I'm okay with her? What nonsense are you talking about! "Second Mrs. Chu has thought about everything, but she hasn't thought about reconciling with Lin Xiaochu. Lin Xiaochu had a child, and at this time she was locked in the courtyard by herself, and others were at ease with her. Mrs. Chu told Mrs. Du: "Don't ask for peace, don't ask for peace, you don't need her to mediate in front of your in-laws, you say that in the world, who is a daughter-in-law who is as comfortable as her." When it comes to raising a fetus, the yard door doesn't come out. In that yard, Huaixian planted a lot of precious flowers and plants for her, saying that this was also for the sake of the baby. Listen, were you and I so comfortable? ”

Mrs. Du, who has always had ideas, really has a lot of ideas, and for Lin Xiaochu, her brain moved relatively quickly: "It's also simple." When people are more comfortable, they will be suspicious. Since you are so peaceful, you will encourage her to go out for a walk, thinking that at such a time, she will definitely not be idle as a girl who is used to running on the flower street. As long as she is restless, has a miscarriage, or falls and eats something, it is all self-inflicted. I've seen such a person, she can't be good to her in every way, she wants to move around when she is born, she wants to be safe when she moves, and she likes it when she comes against people. ”

This is actually a good idea, and it suits Lin Xiaochu's temperament. Modern people are pregnant, there are those who work until labor and those who work hard to give birth smoothly, and they may not be able to touch the glass body after taking enough leave for half a year. Again, if you don't take care of yourself, no one can help you.

However, the second lady couldn't see this, she shook her head: "No! She guards a yard, it's not good to see the flowers and water, she must come out and ask for peace? Besides, if you think about it, the family still doesn't look down on her, for the sake of the child in her belly, when she comes out at this time, everyone must be smiling. This should be what she can't wait for, and it has become a habit to smile until she gives birth to a child. In the future, even if she comes in, this family will be counted as if she has come in. No, no, no! Your idea is to give her a ride, not good! ”

What the second lady was thinking about was that she was afraid that the family would forget the shame that Lin Xiaochu had brought to the Chu family as long as the days went on, and everyone greeted her with a smile from then on.

"And what are you going to do? Now you are a housekeeper, get some medicine for her to eat, so that she can't give birth, that's it. Mrs. Du said, Second Mrs. Chu's soul flew out of the sky: "This is not good!" I believe in Buddhism, where can I do this? Besides, you don't know, the people in our family, from the old lady to the sister-in-law, have changed a little. The things she ate were watched by the old lady and sister-in-law, and she couldn't get a trace of ashes. ”

Mrs. Du felt sad in her heart, this should have been the treatment of her daughter Yingzhu. Second Mrs. Chu was still saying: "Once I ate two mouthfuls of soup and vomited, the family made a fuss. It was I who said that it doesn't matter if you vomit, you don't vomit if you have a body. Just check it out and turn it over," Second Lady Chu stopped, her eyes slanted, her white eyes were more and less black, and she looked at the ground with disdain.

"What's wrong?" Mrs. Du asked. Second Lady Chu sneered even more: "Guess what." It's a dish she doesn't eat, and she can't smell the smell. Mrs. Du also smiled sarcastically: "It seems that your family still doesn't treat her well." ”

The two women stopped and laughed at each other, and Mrs. Du asked again with a sour meaning: "Later, pointing to this matter, you pick and choose to eat and wear it every day, right?" ”

"Nope." Second Mrs. Chu smiled better this time: "Didn't I tell you, the family still doesn't look down on her, afraid that she will rely on her upper face, she doesn't know about this." But secretly, she couldn't stand the taste of the dish and had to change it. ”

The two women were talking, and Master Du was groaning in the study, which had been a common occurrence since he was punished. When people are frustrated, it is estimated that 99 out of 100 people have sighed. After sighing, Master Du asked, "Madame is meeting the second Mrs. Chu?" ”

"Yes, I've been talking about it for an hour." The family replied, and Master Du silently continued to sit down and ponder. At this time of her own turmoil, the second lady of the Chu family can often have some news.

The second lady of Chu was sent away in front, and Lord Du came to see Mrs. Du. Mrs. Du was sad, and first complained to Master Du: "I heard her say that the girl was treating well, and there seems to be a knife in my heart." We welcome the pearl, why is there no blessing? She is not pregnant with a child, she is simply pregnant with a Buddha and Bodhisattva. ”

Thinking about it again, it was a collision between the Buddha and the Bodhisattva, and Mrs. Du was busy reading: "Sin." "Hurry to clean your hands and burn incense, there is a statue of the Bodhisattva in the room, and a small copper incense burner below. After lighting three incense sticks, Mrs. Du came back with peace of mind and told Master Du 1510: "The second lady inquired again, and said that the people who participated in you had nothing to do with Young Master Chu. Lord Feng has recently joined you, and it has nothing to do with the Chu family. He also said that among the officials who entered Beijing this year, one was named Fang Sheng, one was named He Ziye, and the other was Chen Nianshu, and these three people were said by Young Master Chu behind his back. Let them take the money, and they will get what they want. ”

"You're doing this again!" Lord Du has repeatedly heard and objected: "Her news is not accurate," Mrs. Du said: "You can get one out of three." Master Du's words did not break at all: "It's all from the parents, how can this be counted!" Mrs. Du persuaded: "If there is something that does not fulfill his wishes, the money will also be returned to him." Don't say that you are not happy now, but you are as proud of officialdom as before, these people can hold a handle in their hands, or let them feel a favor, which is also what should be done. ”

Mrs. Du is a little female Zhuge , but she didn't succeed in her calculations in major matters. Chu Huaixian hated, annoyed and unwilling to lose Lin Xiaochu's mood, and the temporary murder made Mrs. Du miscalculate. But usually, when she talks at home, Lord Du pretends on the surface: "A woman's opinion." "Actually, you can also think about it behind it.

Especially during this period of time, Lord Du has suffered a lot of losses, and he feels guilty about his family, so Mrs. Du's words can be listened to more easily. Mrs. Du added: "The master doesn't have to come forward, it's all me and the second lady here." Master Du only said: "Second Mrs. Chu, you can do it." ”

"Alas, I hate Prime Minister Zhang's family, and no one went to the door." Mrs. Du turned to blame her son-in-law Gong: "It's a useless thing." ”

The sunlight came through the open window, and the bright light of the shadows of the leaves was imprinted on the ground, like a strange stone of unknown sight. Master Du's face was gloomy, like a shadow on the ground. Prime Minister Zhang Cheng wants to unload the mill and kill the donkey or cross the river and demolish the bridge? After many years of officialdom, how can there be something in my hands, if Lord Feng chases after him again, Lord Du's heart will be crossed, and I will come out of my pocket.

"Old lady, my uncle is here." After talking back outside, Mrs. Du was still impatient, and Lord Du was polite: "Please let him in." "Lord Gong came in, or he didn't like the decency. Mrs. Du never looked at it more, either turning her face or lowering her eyes. Master Gong never bothered with his mother-in-law, and said to his father-in-law, "Speak alone." ”

This Weng son-in-law went out, Mrs. Du hated it again, and then thought that Lin Xiaochu was like a master in the Chu family, and Mrs. Du hated Second Mrs. Chu again, afraid that she would give birth to a son, you would have no place to stand, why not hurt her! Whether it is a miscarriage or a birth, it is always good to have two lives!

hated Second Mrs. Chu, she would only say people who didn't dare to do it.

Outside the room, behind Master Du, followed Lord Gong and staggered to the study. Lord Gong saw that his father-in-law was still walking very steadily, but on the back of his neck, he had a few gray hairs, which he didn't have last time. It seems that it is okay, Master Gong comforted himself.

When he came to the study, Lord Du still had a politeness on his face, and raised his hand to signal: "Sit down, Yingzhu is pampered by me, the girl of the dealer is engaged, and she went to see that she was not at home." He also said that you were out of Beijing, so I kept her for a few more days. ”

"Father-in-law, I'm rushing back!" Lord Gong didn't talk nonsense, and he didn't want to mention his wife Du Yingzhu: "I just saw Di Copy, and I know that my father-in-law was unhappy after the last time. I was afraid that my father-in-law would make a mistake in anxiety, so I rushed back with a leave of absence. ”

The study was extremely quiet, and Lord Du listened to his son-in-law, who had never cared about him, and talked eloquently for himself: "It seems that an official has been imprisoned, and one person after another has been pulled out. It's like a mouse pulling a shovel, with the big head behind it. Actually, otherwise, this is the beginning of Young Master Chu and Prime Minister Zhang. ”

The only thing that Lord Gong didn't understand was: "As soon as I got the copy of the palace, I even saw the dawn under the night light, but there is one thing I don't understand, His Royal Highness King Liang has always been the mainstay, this time he first called sick, and then he has not said a word." It turned out to be at their mercy to fight. ”

"Lord Wang, he's really sick. I've been there, and you have to hold on to people to get up. Lord Du's eyes lit up, even if his son-in-law didn't understand things, it was rare to be able to take into account the dawn under his lamp at this time, and it was a charcoal in the snow.

Master Gong thoughtfully: "That's it, King Liang has always been a good pawn to mediate disputes between officials." I looked at it, and I couldn't see His Highness's recitals, and I was always wondering. ”

"Tsumbon, I'm relieved that you have said that. You don't have to worry about me, I'm fine. Lord Du affectionately shouted the words of Lord Gong and stopped calling him Lord Gong. Lord Gong said anxiously: "I came back in a hurry, because I was afraid that my father-in-law would take a risk, but now that the situation is that the three of Young Master Chu are fighting for Prime Minister Zhang." There are many protégés in the Chu family, but the three officials are nothing, father-in-law, look at Prime Minister Zhang, first went to General Lu, and then the deputy eunuch Yuan Neixiang of the Sixth Palace also went, Young Master Chu has always been in charge of the Ministry of Officials, and now the squire of the Ministry of War has also been involved. ”

Master Du was told to break his mind, patted his forehead with his hand and said dejectedly: "There are many rights and wrongs this year." Lord Gong said word by word: "This is the reason why the emperor has always put Young Master Chu outside." Master Du was taken aback: "You mean, the emperor is dissatisfied with Young Master Chu?" ”

"No!" Master Gong said categorically: "It's Young Master Chu who stays in the capital for a long time, and someone is going to attack him!" ”
