Chapter 43: Father's Kindness and Son's Filial Piety

Yi'er said: "Mother, what Mrs. Tai sent ......"

Li sneered and said, "Since she gave it away, you can take it, and it can be regarded as a little compensation for you for so many years of exile!" ”

The matter of the Qingxiang Marquis Mansion is much simpler in comparison, and what comes out of Li's mouth can be summed up as two things in total.

One is that ten years ago, at the Lantern Festival, Du Feiyuan was abducted by Huazi, and by chance, Du Ziwu and his wife learned that it was not an accident, but someone deliberately did it, the point is that the person who did this was none other than the lady Lin of the Qingxiang Marquis Mansion.

This second thing is actually to explain why the Lin family personally planned the abduction of her eldest granddaughter, after the death of the old Qingxiang Marquis Du Jialu, the Lin family asked the emperor to set up her own son Du Ziqian as the new Qingxiang Marquis on the grounds that there was no man and half woman under the knees of the long house!

In other words, the Lin family first let people kidnap Du Feiyuan, and then stripped Du Ziwu of the title of marquis on the grounds that the long house had nothing to do!

Yi'er's head hurt a little, she could think that something bad must have happened between Du Ziwu and his wife and the Marquis of Qingxiang's mansion, and she could guess that most of it should be related to the title of Marquis of Qingxiang, but she didn't expect that it was related to Du Feiyuan's abduction back then!

If this is the case, Lin's mind and approach are really chilling!

Yi'er knows that Du Ziwu's biological mother died early, Du Ziwu was brought up by the Lin family, as the saying goes, it is better to be born than to raise kindness, Yi'er believes that Du Ziwu has a real love for the Lin family, but it is precisely because this love is heavier and purer, after knowing the truth, Du Ziwu will be more painful and unbearable, and the more unwilling he will die!

Yi'er didn't know what to say, or she didn't know how to comfort her parents at this time, but many years have passed, and the two have already accepted this fact, plus now that they have found Yi'er, their relationship in the past ten years has a place of sustenance, and the two have long lost their original anger and sadness!

Coming out of the main house, Yi'er's mind was a little trance-like, she was thinking that since so many things had happened in the Qingxiang Marquis Mansion back then, when she returned to Beijing with Du Ziwu and his wife, how should she face the Lin family's grandmother? And how to get along with the other young masters and young ladies in the Hou Mansion?

Yi'er remembered Zhu Youzhen, in the Qingxiang Marquis Mansion, the Lin family had already done such a thing, but there was only one filial piety word at the moment, and the endless grief and indignation and hardship Du Ziwu and his wife could only break their teeth and swallow it in their stomachs, even if they had resentment and hatred in their hearts, they couldn't do anything substantial, because the world didn't care what your reason was, when the time came, a big hat of disobedience would be buckled on your head, even if you were reasonable, you couldn't tell it!

Du Ziwu is an official of the imperial court, although he is not a feudal official, but after all, he is also the prefect of a state with real power in his hands, even when he faces the elders of the family, he is still so patient, but what Zhu Youzhen is doing now, not to mention disrespecting his father, it is simply a direct disobedience and unfilial piety.

Looking at it this way, Zhu Youzhen is indeed not easy, Yi'er thought of Jiang Jufang again, and Zhu Youzhen is somewhat similar, people often say that the father is kind and the son is filial, but if the father is not kind, does the son still have to be filial?

took a bath at night, sat on the dresser, and Qingli combed her hair. Yi'er's head happened very well, supple and tough, it was okay to comb it casually, and it would not be knotted the next day, but Qingli has always insisted on curling Yi'er's hair after taking a bath and then combing it carefully, saying that it helps the blood veins on the head to flow smoothly and soothe the spirit!

Yi'er stared at Qing Li, who was seriously combing her hair in the bronze mirror, and suddenly said, "Qing Li, who else is in your family?" ”

Qing Li's hands kept moving, and he replied in his mouth: "The slave's parents are long gone, and they have been orphans since they were children, so how can there be anyone else in the family?" ”

"You're an orphan too?"

Although Qing Li didn't know why Yi'er used the word "also", she still said: "Yes, when the slave maid was very young, she entered a big family to be a little girl, but later, that family declined, and all of us servants were sold, no, so that the slave maid had the opportunity to wait by the young lady's side!" ”

Yi'er sighed and said, "It's also a pitiful one!" ”

Qing Li smiled and said: "The slave is not pitiful, the slave and the maid can meet a master like Miss is a blessing that the slave and the maid have cultivated for several lifetimes, and the slave and the maid are not pitiful, unless, one day the young lady does not want the slave and the maid to wait, then the slave and the maid are really pitiful!" ”

Qingli is usually steady, and it is rare to have such a playful joke, Yi'er knew that she was a little depressed, and deliberately said something witty to make herself happy, so she smiled and said, "What? I've only been waiting for Miss for so many days, and I'm thinking about what kind of high branch to climb, so I don't wait by Miss's side? ”

"What's the matter? Although the young lady is the master, she can't be so forceful! ”

"Ouch, complaining about the master, even using idioms, and still using strong words? I can tell you, your young lady is bullying you with strong words, what are you going to do? ”

Qing Li glanced at Yi'er, who looked like a bully in the bronze mirror, sighed helplessly, and said, "What else can the slave do, she can only be bullied by Miss, who calls Miss the master?" ”

Yi'er saw Qing Li's resigned appearance of being angry, and she didn't feel it, reached out and grabbed Qing Li's hand, shook it, and said: "Good Qing Li, look at you so pitiful, it's a big deal that I won't bully you too hard in the future!" ”

When Lu Fu came in, Yi'er's master and servant were making a fuss, Lu Fu has always been a lively character, but when she saw Qing Li, who has always been calm and introverted, laughed with Yi'er, she was a little surprised, and she wondered if she was dazzled for a while, so she rubbed her eyes vigorously, and forgot to go up and make trouble with the two of them for the first time.

Yi'er smiled and said: "Why have they all changed their temperament today, Qingli came to trouble me, and Lufu has become more stable!" ”

Lu Fu grinned and said: "The slave maid has never seen Sister Qingli like this, she is just in a trance, if Miss wants the slave maid to be as stable as Sister Qingli, it is better to send the slave maid to guard the door!" ”

Yi'er shook her head and said: "Just your words, I'm worried that you really want to guard the door, everyone doesn't want to pass by you for the sake of quietness, maybe there will be one more door to open and let everyone in and out, won't you toss?" ”

Lu Fu stomped her feet and said, "Miss is becoming more and more sharp now, and I don't know who she learned from?" ”

Yi'er sighed, thought about it, and said seriously: "In your young lady's room, who can speak the most and who talks the most, I will naturally learn from whom, otherwise, I can also learn the ability to be sharp with Qing Li's stuffy gourd?" ”

Qing Li saw that Yi'er was making fun of Lu Fu, which was very funny, and she laughed out loud.

Lu Fu glared at the two of them and said, "Miss herself has become bad, don't rely on the slave." The slave maid is kind enough to ask the young lady if she is hungry, whether she needs to have a supper, the young lady is good, and the slave is happy! ”

Yi'er smiled and asked, "What's delicious in that big kitchen?" ”

"The little greens sent from the kitchen today are very fresh, and Mama Li boiled some greens porridge with green stem rice, and Mrs. has sent it there, and the rest has been sent to our East Warm Pavilion. The slave maid saw that the porridge was boiled well and fragrant, so she came to ask the young lady if she wanted to use it hot? ”

Yi'er saw Lu Fu's appearance, where did she not know that this little girl was afraid that she was hungry? Then he smiled and said: "Seeing that you said it so well, and you didn't have an appetite and you said you wanted to eat, just bring me a small bowl in, don't waste the rest, you can eat it separately!" ”

Lu Fu got the order, and immediately went out happily to serve porridge.

The green vegetable porridge is indeed boiled very well, the heat is moderate, it tastes smooth and refreshing, and the mouth is full of fragrance, especially the small green vegetables inside, which are fresh and crisp, and extraordinarily fresh and tender.

After using the porridge, Yi'er praised casually, and Lu Fu answered: "Miss, don't say it, the fruits and vegetables sent to the house in the past few days are much better than before, and the Pei steward of the procurement office is quite responsible!" ”

Yi'er nodded, that Steward Pei is the old man of Du Mansion brought by the Li family, and he will naturally not be bad in terms of due diligence, but in such a short time, he can find a suitable store in Beikai City to supply Du Mansion's food melons and vegetables, and he is also capable!

After the chrysanthemum feast, Dufu returned to calm.

Yi'er knows that outside, Du Ziwu is afraid that he is very unquiet in political affairs, but inside the Du Mansion, at least the wind and waves are calm and peaceful.

Li because of pregnancy, and in the first three months of the critical time, so the house in the feed will be handed over to Yi'er to deal with, she every day at ease to raise the fetus, as soon as there is time Yi'er will accompany the waiter, talk and laugh with her, Li only feel very satisfied, ironing in his heart, full of joy.

It's just that Yi'er is a little busy, every day she gets up at half of the hour, after freshening up, she goes to the main house to ask Li for peace, and then accompanies Li to have breakfast, at four o'clock on the hour, in the reception hall to listen to the affairs of various places, deal with some chores, after the end, it is almost noon, and then return to the main house to talk to Li, and after lunch, go back to the East Warm Pavilion to rest.

Relatively speaking, in the afternoon, I am free, and I will do embroidery work when I have time, but for reading and practicing words, she has insisted almost every day, the type of books is still not limited, and the words are still five.

Every day is busy, there are many miscellaneous things, but Yi'er doesn't feel tired at all, she has worked since she was a child, although she hasn't done much work that is too heavy, but after all, she is busy working every day, and her body is much better than those pampered ladies.
