Mrs. Yu listened to these words very usefully.

Ximo was silent, not nodding or shaking his head.

What to say?

"Mo'er, I'm ashamed of my mother......" In front of the banquet, Mrs. Yu only said one point in her heart. The remaining nine points are hidden deep in the heart.

Shi Yuan also looked at Ximo.

There is no doubt that he is disappointed with this eldest son.

Why the disappointment?

It's nothing more than that he doesn't ask about his career in economics and doesn't go to exams.

In Jiangcheng alone, young students of his age either studied in the academy, hired teachers, or formed groups of three or five, often visiting the homes of local sages to seek advice.

If you don't study, you'll be in charge of affairs at home early. A silver coin, and the flow of water to keep accounts, are all things that are within the division.

But Ximo doesn't touch anything.

From his family, Shi Yuan even learned that in January, he was not in the house for half a month. It is said to be an outgoing ranger.

Hehe...... Ranger, when he heard these two words, Shi Yuan wanted to laugh.

Ranger has been a lover for a few years, and I haven't seen him make any reputation.

Looking at his son's talent, handsome and extraordinary, I don't know the details, I really think he is an outstanding person. Thinking of this, Shi Yuan sighed in his heart.

He didn't expect his wife to stay in the mansion for a few more days, he had been used to it for so many years.

Habit is natural.

But if Mrs. can care more about this only son-in-law, this father will always be happy to see it.

"Madam, that grass house, but it is also quiet, very suitable for you to live."

Ximo had no choice but to speak: "Listen to my mother." Although I have a humble place, as long as my mother does not like it, my son will do his best to entertain his mother. ”

This time, Ximo stopped saying the word "wife" and changed her name to mother.

Madame Jade heard the subtle difference, and her throat choked. It's not that she doesn't love her son. How can you not love the flesh that fell from your own body?

She just couldn't get out of the barrier she had laid.

"Mo'er, how could my mother dislike you?"

Anyway, she conceived and gave birth to a son in October, and she fed October's milk. The son has grown up, but in the eyes of Madame Jade, he is still like a pink and carved baby.

Mrs. Yu and her son relaxed their attitudes towards each other, and it was really like a homely conversation, and the old lady sat and listened with a smile. She only drinks a bowl of sweet white fungus soup.

It's cold.

Older people need maintenance. Those wild people of fairy grass shells are not elegant in the end. Liu Jian has that heart, and it's already very good.

The conversation between Mrs. Yu and Shi Ximo fell into Aunt Wen's ears.

She was silent, and she didn't know why the lord and wife were so unfamiliar. She was just happy with the uncle. Aunt Wen has an indifferent temperament. What I eat and wear on weekdays is borrowed from the following people. The one who waits is just a maid. These are all reasons why Aunt Sun is harsh.

If it is someone else, it will not be wronged, they are all concubines, who will be divided into three, six, nine and so on? Aunt Wen was born in a fishing family, but since her grandmother's generation, she has been a child in Shifu. Even if Aunt Sun was hired from outside, so what? Unless she becomes a wife, or she helps her wife, this can be pressed. That's it, since they are all concubines, they should be called sisters on weekdays, how can they let the Sun family climb on their heads, and they have to ask her for the monthly money?

But Aunt Wen endured it like this.

Everyone in the house turns a blind eye and becomes a ready-made blind person.

But Uncle Ximo couldn't get used to it, and sent Chunqin over to give her some silver during the New Year's holidays. Qilan on the old lady's side will also quietly take out a little money for herself.

Aunt Wen misses all of this.

She can't wait for her uncle to be with her mother every day. Those who are kind-hearted should be rewarded.

Aunt Wen stepped forward for the first time, holding a wine glass, cramped and solemn: "The concubine also respects the wife and uncle, do it first!" ”

Aunt Wen craned her neck and drank the wine, but coughed softly.

Ximo got up: "My aunt can't drink, she can replace wine with water." ”

Mrs. Yu knew that she was introverted and not good at talking, so she also said, "You bothered." You have served the master for so many years, without merit and hard work, but you still come to respect us, sit down. ”

The atmosphere is still harmonious.

Shi Yuan has three concubines and an outer room.

The eldest aunt has passed away, leaving behind three daughters. The second aunt is the Sun family, and she has a son, Yuquan. The third aunt is Wen's, and she has no children so far. Shi Yuan also set up an outer room in the capital, which is said to be a widow who dragged an oil bottle. The widow is also a big house of the official eunuch's family, just because her husband died, the family was in the middle of the road, and she had no choice but to take her daughter to get acquainted with Shi Yuan, not seeking fame, but only eating and drinking to be rich and comfortable. I don't know if this outer room gave birth to a boy and a girl for Shi Yuan.

It's cold.

But there was a charcoal fire in the house, the candlelight was shining, and the three generations of the family were reunited.

The old lady was very happy, but she still regretted in her heart: when her daughter-in-law came back, she should be with her son. That's the right thing to do. More than 20 years have passed, and the daughter-in-law still can't let go of the past.

She wanted to persuade her, for the sake of the children being so big.

But I'm afraid that the relationship that has finally eased will become a stalemate. That's it. The daughter-in-law will still be tolerant. The son took in several women and gave birth to a bunch of children. The daughter-in-law doesn't care at all. If you look into it carefully, it is the son who bears the daughter-in-law.

After a large family in Xuanrui Hall had eaten, the old lady said that she was sleepy and wanted to rest early. Tonight, Na Qilan was waiting, and later led her mother-in-law to sit at the small table outside to eat, but she kept thinking about Ximo in her heart.

The uncle rejected her.

Qilan returned to Xuanrui Hall, as if she were dead.

The roots of love have been planted, just like the water that has been spilled out, how can it be withdrawn for a while?

Qilan also read Li Bai's sentence: Draw a knife and cut off the water, the water will flow more, and raise a glass to eliminate sorrow and sorrow. She doesn't know how to raise a knife, and she doesn't drink well, but she is really willing to follow Li Shixian to go to the sky and go to Haiti for a swim, and forget all the sorrows in her heart.

This night, Qilan drank a lot in one go by raising a glass from everyone.

Madame Yu didn't ask a word about Shi Yuan's officialdom. It's a vain question to ask, the turtle with a shrunken neck has already explained everything, I hope Shi Yuan can understand.

That Shi Yuan knew that Madam Yu would not sleep with him. He didn't think about it a long time ago.

Tonight, let's go to Aunt Sun's place.

Shi Yuan guessed that the Sun family must be embarrassed by him. Today, the Sun family is bound to be unhappy. Shi Yuan had already thought of a countermeasure. He bought things for the Sun family early, and they were all expensive.

Sun is a concubine in the end. Since ancient times, wives and concubines have been different, what can I do about them?

The Sun family is so strong, but he was born in a small door, and he can't compare with his wife in this life. Unless...... Unless the Yu family is involved, Yuding is dismissed as a citizen. But even if the Yu family is down, will he take advantage of this to leave his wife?

Shi Yuan still can't do such a thing.

One, the doctor will make fun of it. Second, there is an old lady in the way.

Even if there is no old lady, he will remember the old love of the emperor and give his wife a stable rest of his life. In this way, you will have to wronged the Sun family for the rest of your life.

And rest assured. What is owed to her will always be on her son Yuquan.

In Shi Yuan's heart, he still had ardent hopes for Yuquan. In his eyes, Yuquan is called interesting when he listens to the play, and Yuquan is called a man's elegance when he raises a concubine. Yuquan has a more true temperament than his eldest son Ximo, just like his younger self.

There are two flowers, one on each branch.

When the Sun family saw that Shi Yuan was staying, he asked the maid to guard the door and not let him in.

The night was deep. Shi Yuan knocked a few times and called out repeatedly. Sun was annoyed and ordered left and right, even if the old man called until dawn, he couldn't open it horizontally and vertically.

Shi Yuan couldn't, so he thought about it and went back to the study to rest.

But in the middle of the night, I suddenly couldn't sleep again. He is not yet over fifty, and he is still a strong middle-aged man. Shi Yuan got up again and went to Aunt Wen's house, which he hadn't been going to for several years.

Aunt Wen hadn't fallen asleep yet, so she made some shoes and socks under the lamp.

Shi Yuan was surprised. Aunt Wen was also surprised, and put down the scissors for a while.

"What are you doing all this? Is not enough money for you to spend? "Shi Yuan has not forgotten Aunt Wen.

Aunt Wen laughed: "The master takes care of the concubine, and the concubine naturally appreciates it." But there is a good saying, there is no feast in the world. I'm really enough for my daily life. It is better to save the money. These shoes and socks are bits and pieces, so why buy them outside, I can do them myself. I have no children, so naturally how cheap can I come. ”

Shi Yuan sighed when he said this.

Under the light, Wen, who is in his early thirties, still has a demeanor. She wears a half-worn couple-colored jacket, her hair is slightly unkempt, and she does not apply powder, which adds to the charm.

Shi Yuan didn't wait for anything to say, and immediately hugged her on the kang.
