Time: 213-1-4
Li Danruo returned to his yard, lifted the curtain and entered the house, Jiang Yanming had already returned, he was sitting on the kang, holding a bowl in one hand and a spoon in the other to feed Jiang Jingmo to eat crisp cheese, Jiang Jingmo had just turned one year old, he had learned to walk staggeringly, and he could say something unspeakable, at this time, he was wearing a royal blue Jiangxia muslin jacket and a pair of pants of the same color, pushing Jiang Yanming's arm, pushing the spoonful of crisp cheese to the side and shouting: "Sister." \[\]" motioned for Sister Zhi to eat the spoonful of crisp cheese.
Jiang Yanming was already clumsy, and then he was pushed on his arm by his son, and the spoonful of cheese was thrown out and sprinkled on Sister Zhi'er's skirt, Zhu Yi hurriedly stepped forward to help Sister Zhi clean her clothes and smiled: "I'll come." ”
Watching and laughing from the side, Mama Shen saw Li Danruo come in, and hurriedly waited for her to go to the cloak and said with a smile: "Look at it, Ye has to feed my brother to eat crisp cheese, and this bowl of crisp cheese has been sprinkled with most of the bowl." Jiang Jingmo saw Li Danruo, chubby hands on the ground, pouting his ass to stand up, and stumbling towards Li Danruo.
Li Danruo hurriedly hugged Jiang Jingmo, and Sister Zhi also ran over and said with a smile: "The fifth aunt is back, Brother Mo has to let me eat the cheese, and the fifth uncle wants to eat it, I said that I have eaten it, and he also let me eat it." While speaking, he sat down next to Li Danruo, Li Danruo sat in his arms with Jiang Jingmo in one hand, and put his free hand around Sister Zhi'er and said with a smile: "The eldest girl gave you that set of golden-headed noodles and asked Sister Fat Red to put it away for you?" ”
"Put it away! Sister Lihong said that it could be put in the dowry in the future. Sister Zhi said happily, Shen Mama laughed out loud, raised her hand and pointed to the fat red and smiled and said angrily: "How can you teach my sister to talk like this?" Sister is not sensible, wouldn't it make people laugh when she turns around and says it? Fat Hong shrunk her shoulders and didn't dare to answer, Li Danruo smiled and hugged Sister Zhi and said, "Sister Zhi talked to the eldest girl just now, how good it is, the eldest girl also praised Sister Zhi'er, didn't she?" ”
"Hmmm! Zhi'er knows that the dowry is said in the house, and you can't go out to talk about it! Go out and speak according to Mama's teachings. Sister Zhi replied with a blushing face by Li Danruo's praise, Li Danruo lowered her head and kissed Sister Zhi and laughed, Jiang Yanming handed the bowl to Zhu Yi, took the wet handkerchief and wiped her hands and said: "Brother Mo must be generous when he grows up, like you are very, this bowl of cheese, let Sister Zhi'er, you have to let me eat, Sister Zhi said that she has eaten it, but she refuses to eat more, it is really embarrassing for me." Li Danruo hugged Jiang Jingmo and kissed him with a smile and asked, "Does Brother Mo like to eat crisp cheese?" ”
"Uh-huh!" Jiang Jingmo nestled Li Danruo in his arms, and focused his head.
"Then next time you and your sister will have a bowl and eat it by yourself, okay?"
"Good!" Jiang Jingmo looked up at Li Danruo, clapped his hands, and agreed in a milky voice.
"I'll feed my brother! I like to feed my brother, and he listens to me!" Sister Zhi shouted excitedly and proudly, Jiang Jingmo looked at Sister Zhi and kept nodding, and Li Danruo and Jiang Yanming both laughed, Li Danruo put Jiang Jingmo aside and said, "Sister Zhi'er coaxes my brother to play for a while, and it's time to rest after playing for a while." ”
Jiang Yanming was extremely pitiful, staring at the babbling and talking to Sister Zhi'er, Jiang Jingmo looked at it for a while, and then turned his head to look at Li Danruo and said with a smile: "Big sister went back?" ”
"Well, you're back so early?" Li Danruo took the jujube soup and took a sip of the response, Jiang Yanming reached out and touched Li Danruo's hand and said: "Your hands are still cold, I'm afraid that you can't just drink the jujube soup, so I'll ask a doctor to come over tomorrow for a consultation." ”
"It's okay, I've been like this since I was a child, my body is cold, and my hands and feet are cold in winter."
While talking, Fatty Hong had already sent the hand stove in, Li Danruo took it and covered it, gossiped with Jiang Yanming, watched Jiang Jingmo and Sister Zhi play for a while, and watched the nurse and Fatty Hong take the two of them down to rest, before washing clothes with Jiang Yanming and preparing to rest.
Li Danruo went out to see Jiang Jingmo and Sister Zhi turned back, Jiang Yanming hurriedly handed over the hand stove, watched Li Danruo take the hand stove, and then said in a low voice: "Sun Dalang came back this time, I wanted to ask for a dispatch from the Criminal Department, I accompanied Sun Dalang to Lu Langzhong's mansion, Lu Langzhong said that there is no suitable vacancy in the Criminal Department now, it is better to look for the household department and the official department, these two places have many vacancies this year, and the grade is comparable." ”
"Well, I heard from the eldest sister, and the eldest sister said that it was for the sake of the eldest uncle that she wanted to ask for a dispatch from the Criminal Department." Li Danruo leaned on Jiang Yanming, half sitting and half lying down, Jiang Yanming nodded and said: "Da Lang said the same thing, I don't think it's necessary, the Criminal Department has Lu Langzhong's volunteer help, even his own family is just like this, Da Lang is only six products, even if he enters the Criminal Department, it is difficult to speak, and now there is no suitable dispatch, I persuaded him, first focus on his own future, he can only help the Jiang family with a future." ”
"Well, do you have any letter from Hachiro?"
"The letter he received over there is similar to what we received, but there is a steward in his house waiting with Xiongnan, and he sent a message back from ago, saying that Hachiro and General Hou went southwest to pursue the Amanbu." Jiang Yanming said in a worried voice, Li Danruo looked up at Jiang Yanming anxiously, and without waiting for her to speak, Jiang Yanming hurriedly patted her lightly and comforted: "Don't worry, Hachiro is not a reckless, besides, Hachiro and the steward have said in the letter, General Hou is very knowledgeable Hachiro, this time he followed him on the expedition, he must be a staff member or a clerk, but the Chinese army followed a hard trip, Hachiro can't even ride a horse, and he is a scholar, how can he rush to the front?" What's the use of him rushing up? Don't worry, don't tell your wife about this, the eldest sister also knows that the wife is old, don't let her be afraid. ”
"Big sister didn't mention this today." Li Danruo slowly lay back, rested his head on Jiang Yanming's chest, was silent for a long time, sighed softly and said in a low voice: "When everyone can come back, it will be as safe and sound as before." ”
Jiang Yanming pillowed one hand behind his head, slowly rubbed Li Danruo's hair with one hand, and sighed for a while: "Respect for the prince, there are a lot of strange things, the third uncle will never do this siege crossbow thing, who will do it in the middle?" Respect the prince, you can't think about it, except for ...... Today, there is no such a big event, this can't be thought about, but the third uncle must have someone taking the opportunity to make trouble, but who is this person? Who can honor the prince and take the opportunity to make an accident in the matter? I'm afraid of this, he's dark, we're bright. ”
"If something can happen in this matter, it must be in the center." Li Danruo answered in a low voice, Jiang Yanming sighed worriedly, Li Danruo looked at Jiang Yanming, hesitated for a moment, and said in a low voice that the note was hidden in the steamed bun on the night he came back from the women's prison of the Criminal Department, Jiang Yanming sat up with a 'whew', Li Danruo was startled, Jiang Yanming hurriedly hugged her, his eyes flashed brightly, stared at her and said: "This rumor, at that time I thought it was for you, not to save me, he threw the note to you, who might you remember?" Something to do with the eldest uncle? The eldest uncle is in the Privy Council, and he must ......"
Li Danruo looked at Jiang Yanming and shook his head, Jiang Yanming stayed for a moment, hugged Li Danruo and fell on the pillow, sighed and said: "It's me who is in a hurry, the person who spread the rumors knows that Prince Jing is going to rebel, and he knows that he wants to implicate the Jiang family, and then look at this note, he even knows the fate of everyone in the Jiang family, uncle...... Even if you don't worry, you can't know so far! Danruo, I really can't think of anyone else who can know so clearly and understand it except Jinshang? ”
"There are many people who have heard that Jinshang has a generous and gentle temper, and his health is not very good, and the queen often helps to deal with government affairs?"
"Well, the queen is pregnant, and now she is wholeheartedly protecting the fetus, I heard that it is Liu Meiren who is waiting for pen and ink in the palace of diligence." Jiang Yanming replied in a low voice, Li Danruo thought about it and said in a low voice: "When I used to be in my mother's house, I knew a very unusual woman, she treated me very well, and her surname was Liu, that day I heard my aunt say that Liu Meiren was attached to the Zhongyong Uncle's Mansion, so I guessed that maybe this Liu Meiren was the woman I knew in the dust, but then I heard my aunt say that this Liu Meiren is very knowledgeable, and even the Taifu has praised it several times, I know that sister, she knows a few words for accounting, and she has not read any books." ”
Jiang Yanming listened intently to Li Danruo's low words, looked at the cold moonlight outside the window and thought of a god, for a long time, before he looked down at Li Danruo and said: "Uncle Zhongyong's Mansion is not rich in heirs, and secondly, these two or three generations, my uncle is a capable and outstanding, although he is expensive but powerful, although my uncle leads the Yongzhou Festival envoy, but at this age, I can't point to it, several in-laws, that is, the Li family is still better, and now the eldest uncle Ding Wei is the family, and the third uncle is ...... Don't worry, just press the eldest uncle for a few more years...... Liu Mei gave birth to the emperor's eldest son, so she attached such a family, so that the queen could rest assured. ”
Li Danruo sighed softly, and he said that he was absolutely right.
"But the world is unpredictable, this Liu Meiren can give birth to the emperor's eldest son safely so far, at this time, while the queen is pregnant, and enter the Qinzheng Palace to wait, it is not simple, the queen occupies the right time and place, the Zou family is now in full swing, the national abbot Zou Yingqing has no merit to be crowned king, the eldest brother Zou Shurui has been named the Marquis of Fuyuan, and Zou Shuming has also been named the Marquis of Fuqing." Jiang Yanming sneered lightly a few times: "It's not a good omen to be able to receive this great fortune without an inch, and it is not a good sign since ancient times." ”
"Well," Li Danruo replied softly, Jiang Yanming looked at the roof with bright eyes, and chuckled for a while: "This Zou family's feng shui is only suitable for women, and the Zou family's father and son together are not worth half of the queen." Li Danruo looked up at Jiang Yanming slightly, Jiang Yanming stretched out his hand to hold her and said: "Danruo, there is no reason in this world, that person is willing to help us like this, either it is the front edge of the report, or ...... It is to ask us to repay this great favor, if I am lucky to win it in the spring next year, you can write to ask your uncle to enter Beijing. ”
Li Danruo was silent for a long time, stretched out his hand to hug Jiang Yanming, and said softly, "um", now they and the Jiang family can't stop retreating, they can't hide, and they have to let go and fight.
