Chapter 144: Endure for a while
When Xiao Huaijin came in, he happened to see Wanxiang blasting Qi'er out, holding the box in his hand and seeing Qi'er passing by him.
Walked into the door with a hand behind his back: "Why did you lose your temper so much?" Can't make you happy anymore? ”
Wanxiang raised her eyes and saw Xiao Huaijin, hurriedly withdrew her own hands, and sat on the cushion: "Which eye did you see that I had a big temper?" ”
"Madame's temper is also reasonable, think I haven't talked to you well for a few days." Saying that, Xiao Huaijin sat down next to Wanxiang and reached out to hand her the box.
Wanxiang looked at Xiao Huaijin's eyes and seemed to ask. Xiao Huaijin raised his chin and motioned for the incense to open.
Two thin little hands lifted the lid and saw the jade wolf hair that Xiao Huaijin used when he was in the palace: "Why did even the first emperor reward the wolf hair move out." ”
"Don't you like it?"
Wanxiang raised her hand and pinched Xiao Huaijin's ears: "I don't like this wolf, I just like to watch the prince paint with this wolf." I can't use anything so valuable. ”
As he spoke, the rain became heavier, and Xiao Huaijin stretched out his hand to close the window.
Wanxiang stretched out her hand to pour tea for Xiao Huaijin: "It's really strange to say, obviously the leaves on this tree are still green, and the cold actually seems to be in late autumn." ”
"An autumn rain and a cold one, you can't blow the wind, and you can't lean out like this to see. The doctor said that you have to take care of it for a few months to not sit down and get sick. When the time comes, it is better to ask Changning to come back. ”
When mentioning children, Wanxiang's heart always 'chuckles'.
But Xiao Huaijin is here, and Wanxiang always feels that it is too sad to be good, so she can only smile and reply: "Okay." ”
After touching the wolf in his hand for a long time, he suddenly remembered something and said to Xiao Huaijin: "The flood in Yucheng has been the most serious in the past years, and this year you hold Yucheng in your hand, you have to hold it firmly." ”
"You don't have to worry, the embankment has already been done. In previous years, the money allocated by the government to build the embankment was kept in the prefect's house, and now it can be used. ”
"The north of Yucheng is Fengyang, and the north of Fengyang is the boundary of the Su people. Recuperate, you can slowly figure it out. It's just that now I have to spend money everywhere, and I don't have anything to do, so I can't help you. ”
"Speaking of which, I'm going to meet a merchant later on, ostensibly in the porcelain business, but in fact selling smuggled salt."
Wanxiang nodded, closed the wolf and covered her heart: "I also have a white jade crown." When he tried the assassin in the palace, he won a bet with Liang Cuo.
Fortunately, I always carried it with me, and I didn't leave it behind when I went out on the expedition. Otherwise, you may not be able to get it back. ”
Xiao Huaijin held Wanxiang's hand: "Those things don't matter." I'll go first, don't open the window again. ”
"Huh!" Seeing that Xiao Huaijin was about to leave again, Wanxiang hurriedly stopped him: "Selling smuggled salt is a big crime, and those who dare to use their lives to snatch meat from the mouth of the government to eat must not be good at stubble, so be careful when working with him." ”
"Got it." As he spoke, he poked Akika's forehead and got up to leave.
Wanxiang just watched him leave, and her back was like the one she saw when she was in the palace. Looking at it, tears fell out of my eyes.
She wanted to rely on Xiao Huaijin more for a while and talk to him well. But he always looks like he's coming and going in a hurry, and Wanxiang doesn't want to drag him down at this juncture.
It was my own idea to go down the mountain, and the child was also dropped because of myself, and Ji'er was also my own person. Everything in the past can survive by herself, and Akika feels that it is the same now.
She must get better, and her prince still needs her.
Thinking of this, I touched the teacup on the side, took a sip of water, covered the mattress and fell asleep.
Gazan wanted to come to see Juanxiang, but was blocked by Qi'er.
The two of them stood at the door and quarreled for a long time, and Wanxiang felt annoyed when she heard it, and called the maid on the side to send everyone away, and finally got a good night's sleep. As soon as I woke up, it was the next day, and I turned around to find Xiao Huaijin lying beside me.
Wanxiang looked at Xiao Huaijin's eyebrows and eyes, stretched out her hand and crossed the bridge of Xiao Huaijin's nose, and unconsciously thought in her heart that if that child was born, she would be as good-looking as her prince.
This woke people up, Xiao Huaijin closed his eyes and asked, "Awake?" ”
"Last night's thunderstorm, there was thunder and lightning, and I thought you were going to be left in the outer courtyard. I drank the medicine and slept deeply, and I didn't even know you were back. ”
"I know that the thunder is loud, and I am afraid that you will not sleep well and come back."
"And the salt merchant is visible?"
"Well, as a matter of sincerity, he first sent 500,000 silver into the mountain."
"Well, that's a lot more roomy."
Xiao Huaijin got up and put on his shoes, and Wanxiang went to the side to dress him. Just when she was busy working, Xiao Huaijin suddenly hugged the person: "There is still something I haven't had time to tell you." ”
"Look at your appearance...... "Wanxiang raised her hand and pinched Xiao Huaijin's chin: "It's not like a good thing." ”
"The salt merchant said he had a niece who was over sixteen and had wanted to stay with me. After refusing, he said that he wanted to stay in the mountains for a few days. I just took someone's money, but I can't refuse this request. ”
After listening to this, Wanxiang stared at Xiao Huaijin without speaking, and understood in her heart that those people were 'off-strings'. He helped Xiao Huaijin like that, how could he not occupy a position by Xiao Huaijin's side.
If Xiao Huaijin really hit the imperial city, his hand would naturally reach into the harem. And for Xiao Huaijin, he really needs a close relative of the other party to restrain him.
Such a way to hold each other hostage and contain each other, Wanxiang has not seen it in the book. But I still felt strange in my heart.
can think about the original Lingzhao and later Gazan, he still doesn't care, why can't he endure it again for Xiao Huaijin this time?
"I never thought of pushing my husband to another woman, or bringing another woman to you, before or now.
But these times are not easy for you to control, and I don't want to embarrass you. Westinghouse is empty, let her live. ”
Xiao Huaijin sighed lightly: "It is said that it is clean and safe, and I want to come to stay." But I know the deep meaning of the period. Don't worry, I'll send her down when the time comes.
If you see her annoying, it's no better than letting her live in the Westinghouse, and it's not impossible to send her to the back mountain. ”
Wanxiang nodded: "It's not good for you to be lazy, just Westinghouse." ”
"Okay."
Seeing Xiao Huaijin away, Wanxiang walked to the edge of the bed and lay down, staring at the gauze tent with her eyes wandering.
Think about the way Xiao Huaijin treated Ling Zhao and Gazan before...... If that's the case, what about having someone else to keep it?
Xiao Huaijin's words have already been asked, thinking about the current situation, she shouldn't be constrained by some small things at this time, she comforted herself in her heart: "My husband is destined to be a person who wants to do big things, and the big husband is not informal." ”
And so the niece of the salt merchant went up the mountain. Wanxiang sat in the house, didn't even go out to take a look, only asked someone to send something over, saying that she was sick and couldn't go to see it.
While holding an attitude for Xiao Huaijin, he can't be too lazy.
Wanxiang thought of everything in the dark, but she didn't expect that this time the little girl was much more 'sensible' than Gazan Lingzhao.
The little girl just went up the mountain and couldn't sleep well, and on the first night, she had nightmares and howled with a pillow, which made Wanxiang have a headache.
Xiao Huaijin, who had just returned to the courtyard, was also directly stopped in her house, and Wanxiang was guarding the candlestick when she heard the sound of pushing the door, but it was Qi'er who came in: "Madam, the lord said that he would go to the Westinghouse to have a look, and he will come back later." ”
"Got it."
"This little girl is very powerful, as soon as she arrived at the Lord's side, she knew that she was going to give Madame a horse."
Wanxiang raised her eyes, and the candle flame seemed to ignite her pupils: "It's good to be smart, but it's not good to be smart." ”
Then he stared straight at Qi'er, until Qi'er felt flustered: "Why is Madam staring at Qi'er so much?" ”
"Nothing, just a little tired. Recently, my health has been poor, and the prince won't let me go out. I've been in the house for a long time, thinking about when I first met you. ”
"It's in the Tibetan Incense Pavilion in Beixun at that time, right?"
Wanxiang looked at her smiling face, and only felt particularly dazzling: "Yes, I remember that you are also a girl from a big family, and with the southern expedition of the first emperor, the family was sold to the Tibetan Incense Pavilion."
I just saw that you were clever, so I stayed by my side and served. After so many years, have you ever been unwilling? ”
"The girl treats me very well, how can she be unwilling?"
"Excellent?"
"How...... What's wrong? ”
"Nothing." Wanxiang put down the book in her hand: "You go out." ”
"Huh."
Qi'er went out, and Wanxiang kept listening to the crying of the West House, picked up the lampshade and cut the candle wick short, and silently waited for Xiao Huaijin to come back.
