Du Tanzhi didn't return too hard, so he had to be careful to find an excuse to retire.

As soon as he went out, he called his aunt, who was taking care of Mrs. Du, over.

The other party was found by Du Tanzhi, and Du Tanzhi gave him a monthly silver, so he naturally knew which one his real master was, and when he heard the other party ask, he didn't hide it at all, but only talked about the old man's diet and daily life for a while, and his interpersonal contacts.

It turned out that Mrs. Du moved into the capital and was very unhappy.

After Du Tanzhi got the official, compared to the Jinshi of the same department, the official career was very smooth, although his official character was not high, the power position was not small, after the two foreign appointments, because he did a good job, he turned back, and he established himself in the Kyoto Prefecture in less than two years.

Mrs. Du followed her grandson without worrying about food and clothing, but no one spoke on weekdays.

In her hometown, she is already a very knowledgeable woman, but in the capital, she can't find anyone to come and go with. Even though Liu Muhe is her granddaughter-in-law, it is difficult for the other party to talk to her, and she is a low-married, thinking that her grandson will have to rely on the other party's father in the future, Mrs. Du does not dare to call very much, and the servants in the family are under the command and control of Du Tanzhi, and they are all very peaceful, and they are not even very good-mouthed.

Mrs. Du is not in good health and often lies in bed, but it is not the kind of bed that is seriously ill, but it is uncomfortable here today, and it is uncomfortable there tomorrow.

It just so happened that a while ago, there were nuns in the capital who often walked around in the back house of officials to find the door, and they would flatter and talk, and tell her some interesting stories about the countryside, worship ghosts and gods, karma, and the cycle of heavenly principles, so that she could hear that one was happy.

"It seems that one day, the sister-in-law told the old lady a story about no one to worship, and finally made a lonely ghost and a ghost, and the old lady still hung it in her heart, and she was very sad, and she grabbed people and asked many times."

The sister-in-law honestly replied to everything she knew, and said: "After a month or two, the sister-in-law came to ask, saying that she inadvertently mentioned it when she went to someone else's house, and it happened that in the capital of the Li Yuanwai family, there was a little daughter who had been back for a while, thinking about finding someone for her, and she was very satisfied with the situation in our house, and she was very satisfied, and she had the heart to marry this family, so she asked her to ask." ”

Du Tanzhi asked a lot of questions, and only after understanding the cause and effect of the matter did he send the aunt away.

He was also a little helpless for a while, because he knew that his wife was not in good health for a while, and he was bent on raising her, so he didn't plan to bother her with things, so he simply called the steward to come, and told him not to let such sneaky people enter and leave the house from now on.

Thinking of what his grandmother said, he went back to the room to look for Liu Muhe.

Within two days, Liu Muhe asked for a son under the pretext of asking for a son, and asked Ji Qingling to go to Yuntai Mountain together.

***

Yuntai Mountain is not far from the capital, there is a big Buddha temple on the mountain, the incense is prosperous, it is said that the Bodhisattva in it is very effective, no matter whether you want wealth or children, you should be able to take care of it.

Ji Qingling is a guest, whether he believes it or not is another thing, and he said that he didn't ask for money, and the child's affairs were still early, so he only gave up some sesame oil money.

Liu Muhe was very pious, kneeling on the futon and worshipping several times.

After the two of them finished worshipping, Liu Muhe went to ask for a sign again.

Because the great monk who unsigned the sign walked away temporarily, she put the sign in her arms, and went to the temple with Ji Qingling to wait for someone to come back.

At this time, it was close to noon, most of the pilgrims in the Big Buddha Temple were scattered, but it showed that there was a bit of quiet inside, and the two walked slowly for half an hour, and then they walked around the place, and found a secluded place to sit and talk.

Ji Qingling didn't want the other party to be full of things like asking for a child, it was all up to God's will, she always felt that sometimes it was easier to relax and have a good result, so she comforted: "Sister Liu, don't worry too much, don't be too anxious, your own body is the most important, and when you take care of it, let's have a healthy, white and chubby baby in the future, wouldn't it be better than being anxious and flustered at this time?" ”

Liu Muhe seemed to be in a very good mood at this time, turned his head and smiled at Ji Qingling: "It's that I couldn't hold my breath, but I made you worry about it." ”

As he spoke, a faint flush appeared on his face, and he said: "A few days ago, San Lang told me about the matter, it turned out that my grandmother had already told him, he blamed me, saying that such a big thing, I don't discuss it with him, obviously only out of Xiaoyuezi, I still have to be alone behind the blind thinking, and said that he married me, that is, he wants the husband and wife to respect each other, and there is no side thought, let me come out temporarily these days to avoid it, he is looking for an opportunity to reason with his grandmother." ”

Liu Muhe pursed her mouth, looked at Ji Qingling and smiled, and said: "Actually, the old lady's temperament is very stubborn, and she is an old man, it is inevitable that she is a little weird, but after all, it is a family, how can I care about this!" Besides, he is a big man, and it is useless to be able to make sense with the old man. ”

She said, "Nine times out of ten, it's useless", but there was some sweet annoyance on her face.

Ji Qingling looked at her complexion, and listened to her tone, and immediately put her heart back in her stomach, and replied with a smile: "My sister also looks down on Du Guanren too much, he is a pusher in the Kyoto Mansion, if he can't even sort out his own family, how can he deal with other things." ”

Liu Muhe glanced at Ji Qingling with disgust, and said, "Don't you hear that 'it is difficult for a clean official to cut off family affairs'?" He sighed again, "Actually, it doesn't make sense, I don't care too much, the most important thing is that he has that heart, if he also intends to be small, there is no old lady here, and there will always be two hearts in the future, if he is single-minded, ten more old ladies, it is useless." ”

Ji Qingling wanted to laugh when he heard it.

It's called an elbow turn.

A woman's home is really too easy to satisfy.

A few days ago, when he talked about the incident, Liu Muhe still looked worried, but today, in fact, the situation has not improved at all, only a few words of reassurance from Du Tanzhi, and he doesn't know what is going on, but the other party is already a different person.

However, this matter, as long as Du Tanzhi makes up his mind, the people around him can't control him.

Ji Qingling was about to speak, when he suddenly heard footsteps outside, and when he looked up, it turned out that seven or eight people were coming over.

There are two little girls leading the way in front, and there are several servant women behind them, and they look like a lot of pomp.

Ji Qingling shut up, planning to wait for someone to walk over and speak again.

However, after waiting for a while, not only did he not wait for someone to leave, but waited for a person to come forward.

"Dare to ask the two ladies, the slave family is tired for a while, but I don't know if it's inconvenient to set up a seat here?"

The voice was shy and timid, and there was a bit of delicate meaning in it.

Ji Qingling turned his head and looked, a few steps away, at the entrance of the pavilion, a beautiful woman who looked to be in her twenties was standing there, with a smile on her face.
