12 There is also a reason for entering Beijing
Ruqing admired He's thoughtful skills, and expected that the charm of the capital was great, and the goodness and beauty of the letter would definitely go together, so He only mentioned in the letter that Zhili missed the old lady a little, and wanted the old lady to go to Beijing to play for a few days, and by the way, he wrote in the letter: "The husband is straight, the daughter-in-law is shallow, and needs more experience, I want to go home and personally consult the old lady and my father-in-law and aunt. I can only ask the old lady to enter Beijing for some advice. ”
The old lady's entry into Beijing is an ironclad matter, and Ruqing has always been by the old lady's side, so she has to follow.
When the news spread, Rushan Rumei also wanted to follow, but the old lady didn't object, but said to Li: "It's hard to know that Zhili loves his wife so much, and he also thinks about me as an old woman, and wants me to accompany his daughter-in-law in Beijing." By the way, I took Ruqing with her, so that she could see her for a long time. After a pause, the words changed, and said: "Zhili's daughter-in-law also mentioned in the letter that Ruqing, this girl, is not good at practicing calligraphy, and she is also poor at reading, and it is estimated that she will not have her good fruit to eat after entering Beijing, and she will definitely be urged by her brother and sister-in-law to study." How do you practice American characters? If it's still not good, let's go to Beijing together. Let her brother and sister-in-law work hard. ”
Li thought about Zhili's coffin face, and He's yin and yang, how dare he let Rumei enter Beijing to suffer, and hurriedly shook his head and refused.
As for Rushan, the old lady ignored her.
But that night, Fang Jinglan came to Songhe Hall and said to the old lady: "Mother entered Beijing this time, only accompanied by Ruqing, Ruqing is still young, it is estimated that even she can't cook well, and it is also a burden to follow her mother's side." Just let the good girl also accompany you, the good girl has been sensible since she was a child, and she will take care of herself. It's also good to let her stay with her mother and help with her sister while waiting for her mother. ”
The old lady said: "Master, do you still remember the good things that the good girl did in King Jing's Mansion last time?" Zhili and his family are deeply affected, isn't the master enough? You have to add eye drops to the little two again, right? ”
Fang Jinglan's face turned red, and he couldn't help but defend Rushan, "Mother, at that time, the good girl was young and ignorant. Now that she is much more sensible, she must not do those shameless things again. Please rest assured that Mother is. ”
The old lady sneered: "Good girl is sensible? Don't I see? If she is really sensible, she will not give her face the next day when her new sister-in-law enters the door, and she will take her sister-in-law to the shelf. ”
Fang Jinglan began to sweat on his forehead, and said with a dry smile: "The good girl is just a child's heart, mother, don't take it seriously, now their sister-in-law gets along happily." ”
The corners of the old lady's lips twitched slightly, "I know that the old man feels sorry for the good girl, and thinks about her everywhere." But does the old man also have to think about the two of them? Do you know how much Zhili doesn't want to see the good girl, do you know how difficult it is for the couple to be in front of their colleagues since the good girl did that shameless thing? ”
Fang Jinglan was said to be more and more unable to raise his head, and hated Zhang's unreasonable troubles more and more, in fact, he also knew that Zhili and his wife did not like Rushan, and he also found many reasons to refuse, but he couldn't stand Zhang's crying and Rushan's pleading, so he was cheeky to find the old lady.
Now that the old lady said it, Fang Jinglan suddenly understood that no matter how important it is, it is not as important as the career of knowing etiquette.
After Fang Jinglan left in a daze, Ruqing came out of the azure begonia curtain behind her, snuggled up to the old lady, and said, "Grandma, don't be angry, Daddy is just entrusted by others." "Of course, I was entrusted by Aunt Zhang.
The old lady snorted: "I really admire that mother and daughter, I did something shameless, and I was embarrassed to go to the capital?" Not afraid of being poked in the back? If it were me, I would not say that I would drown myself by urinating, but I would also lie down and hide myself, so as to save myself from shame. It's good that she dares to go to Beijing, if it's really a brother and sister relationship, it's just that, but it's because of her own unsightly pickled praise, and she's not afraid of being looked down upon. ”
Ruqing was silent, in fact, she knew Rushan's thoughts, and last year she went to the temple to incense and touched Mama Hua, and heard something about Li Xiao from Mama Hua's mouth. Because Princess Jing didn't want to see Ruyan very much, she wholeheartedly planted the side concubine Liu, that is, the cousin and niece of Princess Jing's mother's family, so she went all the way back to the palace to let her give birth to ** Liu, but Mama Hua stayed in the palace for less than ten days before she left due to illness.
Mama Hua's mouth was extremely tight, and she didn't hear any major news from her mouth, but Ruqing still knew a little about it, first of all, Ruyan, the princess of the world, was just an empty shell. Again, Concubine Liu seems to be a dou who can't be helped, and I heard that Princess Jing is very depressed. I heard that I was going to find another candidate for Li Xiao as a side concubine.

Ruqing knows that the capital is not as good as Qizhou City. The prosperity and strict system here are unimaginable in Qizhou City.
Although it was early spring, it was still extremely cold in the north, and occasionally snowflakes could be seen, and it was dangerous to put charcoal in the car, so I put enough hot water in a cowhide bag and simmered all the way forward. And this ancient carriage sat very deadly, there was no bullet box, no rubber tires, just wooden wheels made of elm, pressed on the ground, the buttocks were shaken to the pain, although there was a thick cushion, but sitting for a long time was also extremely fatal. Sometimes accidentally pressed in the pit, people were shaken high, Ruqing was tossed so miserable, I wanted to change to the waterway, but unfortunately the weather was cold, the lake was frozen, and I had to change the whole way to the land.
Ruqing saw that the old lady was shocked and her expression was still calm, but she grinned and admired it very much, so she asked the reason.
The old lady glanced at her and said, "Because you have expectations, you can endure all suffering." ”
Ruqing suddenly realized and said with a smile: "I understand, grandma wants to see her aunt, and then she wants to go back to her parents' house to lie down, am I right?" "Because I'm looking forward to seeing my own daughter wholeheartedly, it's nothing to toss. It's a pity that because I don't have expectations, I'm miserable.
The old lady smiled and asked rhetorically, "Why isn't the girl looking forward to it?" Your sister-in-law is very good to you. ”
Ruqing had a bitter face, "I miss my sister-in-law so much, but the eldest brother has a coffin face all day long, alas, ----" Thinking of Zhili's coffin face that has not changed for thousands of years, I can't help but wail.
The old lady couldn't help laughing, and scolded with a smile: "Don't be dissatisfied, Zhili is not bad for you." Still? Have you ever seen Zhili and spoken to Rushan Rumei? ”
Ruqing smiled, changed her words, and frowned again, "Let's not talk nonsense, it's just, grandma, this time in Beijing, I always feel weird here." ”
The old lady's eyes flashed, and she said quietly: "Oh? How could you have such an idea? Tell me about it? ”
"My sister-in-law's family is also in the capital, even if she is pregnant, as long as she says a word, I believe that my mother's family will take good care of her, so why bother to let us accompany her all the way? Again, even if the eldest brother can't show his way in the court, it will be a matter of finding the Yue family, the He family is a noble and powerful person who has been hairpinned for generations, and it is easy to take care of a small seven-grade editor. Therefore, after Ruqing saw the letter, she felt that things were strange.
Although the old lady is indeed extraordinary and far-sighted, she is only a deep boudoir woman, and she has been staying in Qizhou City, and the gate is not out of the second door, and the situation in the court is not beneficial at all.
The old lady smiled and looked at Ruqing appreciatively, "There are indeed many doorways here. You Lao Tzu guessed it, and Zhilian's daughter-in-law also saw it, but I didn't expect you to think of it. ”
Ruqing's eyes were full of confusion, "In that case, then Daddy still promised to let our ancestors and grandchildren enter Beijing?" ”
The old lady said leisurely, "Why not? It has been more than 30 years since I married into the Fang family, and I have only returned to my parents' house three times. It's been a full fifteen years since the last time. You know that I am homesick, so I just close my eyes. The tone was one of long exclamations and imperceptible pathos.
Ruqing was silent, it turned out that Zhili and his wife were selling dog meat with a sheep's head. However, we also have to appreciate their good intentions. Generally, married daughters are like spilled water, the old lady is a married daughter, and she has to die in her husband's house, if it is Fang Jinglan's biological mother, it is just a stepmother, her identity is there, she doesn't have much right to speak, even if she misses her daughter, she can only hide it in her heart, and she can't let outsiders know, let alone go back to her parents' house to lie down. Even if Fang Jinglan was reasonable and agreed to let the old lady go back to her parents' house, but the road was far away, and there was generally no major event, and she was definitely not allowed to move around at will. Fortunately, Mr. and Mrs. Zhili gave the old lady a good reason.
Zhili and his wife gave the old lady a great favor, one is that the old lady usually works hard to get home, and the second is also their filial piety, third, ---- Ruqing bows her head, and third, it is on herself.
It's just that Ruqing can't think of any great achievements in her life, and she is worthy of such a big effort by the Zhili couple to get herself to the capital. Well, she embroidered a few pairs of shoes for Zhili, which was appreciated more pertinently, and she also embroidered a few sachets for He's family, and also got a box of jewelry as a gift. Once, he deliberately made a piece of raccoon dog skin brought back by Zhiyi to Zhili, and got a few thick copies of "The Analects of Women", ---- Ruqing's head was big.
The exchange of items is a twist that maintains the relationship between Ruqing and Zhili's brother and sister, but other than that, Ruqing really can't find any advantages in herself that can make Zhili so exciting to bring the people to the capital.
The old lady was also confused about this, but she comforted Ruqing: "Come on, although your sister-in-law is shrewd, she is also a kind-hearted person and will not sell you." Don't worry about eating and drinking at your brother and sister-in-law's house. ”
