Extra-four
Time flies......
This year's rainy season seems to be particularly long, and the whole Jiangnan drizzle has lasted for almost a month.
Not to mention that the air is full of water vapor, it always gives people the illusion of a musty smell everywhere, which makes Cheng Ziyu irritable and uncomfortable all the time.
She threw away the mud that she had been unsatisfied with many times in her hand, and finally pushed open the door of the main courtyard of the farm on the mountain.
The Zhuangzi on the mountain, which had been destroyed by the fire, had already been built as it was, and she had been in retreat here for several days.
In the past two years, it has deviated a lot from her expectations.
She planned to study her skills after returning to Jingxi, but she wasted a lot of time.
The past few days were finally free, and she was going to chase back some of the time that had passed, but probably because of her mood or the climate, in short, a few days passed, and she had neither inspiration nor feeling, and she was stunned that she could not produce any results.
As soon as she opened the door, she saw Gui'er waiting outside.
Gui'er was hit hard in the palace that day and almost died. Later, he was sent back to Jingxi by Cheng Ziyu, and after several treatments, he recovered eighty or ninety percent over the years. However, she suffered a spinal injury that day, causing her left foot to be slightly lame.
The doctor thinks that the problem is not big, as long as he insists on acupuncture treatment, he should recover after a few years.
Cheng Ziyu felt sorry for Gui'er and kept her by her side.
Fortunately, Gui'er is tenacious and never cares about the eyes of others, but feels that hurting the Lord is a manifestation of her loyalty to the Lord, which is glory and not ashamed!
Cheng Ziyu wanted to say goodbye to her, but she also refused with "Xia Wei Xia Liu, Zi Yixuan's sisters are all married, and there is no intimate person around Miss".
Gui'er was in order, and Ziyu handed over Ziyixuan to her to take care of.
The two girls who were in charge of Ziyi Xuan before, Weiyu and Qingxue, have also married each other.
These two people are interesting, they are married to Li Chun's people, and one of them is a personal guard on the bright side, and the other is a secret guard.
After Cheng Ziyu married and went to the capital, Weiyu often needed to go out as the steward of Ziyixuan. In this way, she had more contact with the chief of the guard that Li Chun left in Jingxi Cheng's house. In addition, one of them is in the inner courtyard and the other is in the outer courtyard, and every time the correspondence between the capital and Jingxi has to be passed through the two of them, and after a long time, they will look at each other.
The two of them did not show it on their faces, but they had already tacitly ......
As for Qingxue, when the chaos came that day, he brought many people back to Jingxi, and led the Cheng family to get rid of the golden cicada, many of which were dangerous, and Qingxue, as the last person to withdraw from Ziyixuan, had feelings for the secret health who escorted her to evacuate and escorted her several times.
The secret guard originally didn't have much thought, but because Qingxue was Cheng Ziyu's cronies, he couldn't be blunt in his attitude. And in the days when he was trapped in the courtyard, in the face of the anti-care of light snow, Bailian Steel turned into a soft finger twist......
In the days when the two kings were arrested and Li Chun entered Beijing first, Cheng Ziyu discovered the clues. She cheated several times, and the two girls blushed and "explained" clearly.
Since he is the person sent by Li Chun to take care of the Cheng family, there will naturally be no problems with his character and heart. Since the two girls like it, she won't interfere and do her best.
After Cheng Ziyu saw those two people, she was also very satisfied.
The two guys were panicking because of "guarding and stealing", and they never expected the housemother to be so "deeply aware of righteousness".
The reason why these two people received dangerous positions was precisely because they had no relatives at home and had no worries, so as soon as Cheng Ziyu spoke, they each expressed their willingness to stay in Jingxi and become their own small family.
Later, before Cheng Ziyu entered Beijing, he prepared two thick dowries.
Li Chun naturally had no opinion there, and also took the silver out to buy a house for them.
Under the overall situation, not long after Zhu Changzhe ascended the throne, two marriages were completed one after another.
The two guards continued to play their strengths and took care of the safety of the Cheng Mansion, and Qingxue and the others also moved to live in the workshop for convenience.
When Cheng Ziyu returned to Jingxi two and a half years ago, Weiyu had already given birth to a child, and the family was happy.
Zi Yixuan, which had been empty for many years, welcomed back its owner again, and Gui'er became the new director.
Cheng Ziyu and Li Chun have always lived in Ziyixuan, Li Chun took over most of the affairs of the workshop, while Cheng Ziyu stayed in Ziyixuan...... Well, raise a baby.
She finally looked forward to the opportunity to stay away from Ziyixuan (baby) a few days ago, but she couldn't make up her mind.
"Miss, I've got a letter. It's from the palace. "Gui'er came to the village to wait for Cheng Ziyu, just for this.
"Palace? Why didn't you knock on the door earlier? What about you? ”
"The master has already read the letter, and there is no major matter, so the master does not need to rush to find you, the slave maid originally planned to deliver the letter at dinner."
It was a letter from the Empress Dowager informing them of the southern tour.
The time has been set, and the team will depart in August, with more than two months to go.
The queen mother meant that the queen had just finished her confinement and was recovering well, so she was finally able to unload all the harem affairs and steal this leisure. After six years of busyness, she decided to take a good trip this time, so that if it was convenient for Cheng Ziyu, she would take her children to greet her earlier and play slowly with her as she did seven years ago.
In addition, she came to Jingxi this time to live in the rebuilt Cheng family courtyard, and stay there for half a year to recuperate.
In addition, she gave grace, and Wang Yue will also take Qitai to the south together. She promised Wang Yue to come with her, go together, have fun, and also take the child to recognize her relatives, and let Cheng Ziyu go to Wang's house to inform her first......
When the time is set, there will be more things to do.
Cheng Ziyu hurriedly took Gui'er back to Cheng's house.
As soon as the front foot arrived home, the back foot had another letter.
This time, Cheng Hongyu found someone to hand it over.
What they said was nothing more than that they went to ask for the emperor's grace and would go south with the southern tour team in August. They haven't returned for six years, this time they have to stay for a while, and they will bring the children together, and let Cheng Ziyu help the He family arrange it, and at the same time that their courtyard will be cleaned up, she will also clean up her mother's boudoir, and she will go back to Cheng's house to live for a while......
Cheng Hongyu is full of joy between the lines.
She followed Cheng Ziyu into Beijing and never returned. It's not that she doesn't want to, it's that she really doesn't have a chance. Who would have thought that she would never be able to give birth, and she would have one child after another.
And the most laughable thing is that Cheng Hongyu, who has been praying to the sky for a well-behaved daughter since she was pregnant with her third child, gave birth to a son two years ago!
In just over four years, she gave birth to three sons, and there is no one.
It is said that after the birth of the third child, she was deeply afraid of her "reproduction" ability, and Cheng Hongyu refused to have sex with He Sijing for more than half a year, and once wanted to give the girl around her to He Sijing to take in.
In the end, He Sijing asked the imperial doctor for a way to avoid the child, and he barely kept his place in the bedroom of the main courtyard.
Their three sons were difficult to bring up and abrasive, and even though there were many servants in the family, the couple was still tired enough. The children are too young, the third child is still weak, and the couple are not willing to go thousands of miles south.
Dragged on and on, and it was today.
This time there is an opportunity to go south with the brigade, and the two will not miss it.
Cheng Hongyu did not forget to be grateful to Cheng Ziyu at the end of the letter. If it weren't for her sister bringing her a child and reducing the burden, she would have collapsed long ago.
And Cheng Ziyu was also glad that she didn't relent, thanks to walking fast that day, she didn't relent, otherwise she would have to be dragged by Cheng Hongyu in the capital for a year and a half.
Li Chun would be even more glad, if it weren't for the fact that he didn't hesitate to go south that day, if it wasn't for his "strategizing", if it wasn't for the fact that he had been using various methods to lure the two children to stop and go all the way, his baby bump, I'm afraid it wouldn't be able to come so soon.
Yes, Li Chun's wish came true.
On that day, he stubbornly dragged out his trip south for two months. The hard work during that period brought a great harvest in the end......
At that time, a few days after arriving in Jingxi, Cheng Ziyu began morning sickness.
Little Nianbei was very worried, caressed his mother's back with his little hand, and looked at his father viciously.
He knew that his mother was "sick", and the culprit was his father!
He remembered clearly that during the two months on the ship, his father would not let him enter his mother's house at night.
The boat was fun at first, but then it became boring. The cousin of the He family still loves to cry when he gets into trouble, and he is also annoyed, and he begins to miss his mother's soft and fragrant quilt.
But, Dad just won't let me!
What else do you say about "manly" and "ashamed", my father is really old and confused, is he still a child? What kind of manhood? Moreover, why is Dad embarrassed to say this?
"Dad has to sleep with his mother every night, Dad is not a man! Not qualified to say that! ”
Li Chun lifted his son up very seriously:
"My father sleeps with his daughter-in-law, and it has nothing to do with whether he is a man or not. Father and mother are husband and wife, and sleeping together is manly. Li Chunbian said, and also pointed out that he picked at the daughter-in-law who was about to burst into flames. Therefore, a man can only sleep in a bed with his daughter-in-law, and the more he sleeps, the better his feelings, and only when he has a good relationship can he add younger brothers and sisters to you. When you have a daughter-in-law, you will understand. ”
"What nonsense, don't spoil the child!"
Cheng Ziyu came up angrily and made a gesture to tear Li Chun's mouth, but Li Chun let his wife beat him and took him into his arms: "Three years old, this knowledge should be taught slowly." Everything starts with a half-understanding. ”
He leaned into her ear:
"It's hard for a son to be independent, you can't be a mother and lose your son. If you are soft-hearted, what will you do? I must also miss my father and mother, and miss the north. What should I do if I want to sleep with my mother when the time comes? What should I do if I want to go back to Beijing? When the three of you will have sex together, I will have to go ashore and drink the flower wine. ”
Cheng Ziyu glanced at him sideways when he was righteous and righteous.
Therefore, the boy of the He family following them is what he wants the most, right? Just enough to distract her son, it also became a reason to prevaricate and deal with her......
The two were busy whispering, but they didn't notice it at all, and Xiao Nianbei already had something on his mind at that time.
What did Daddy just say? Are younger siblings the product of a good relationship? He is the only one in his father, is it because of a bad relationship? If the relationship is not good, will it be noisy? Will it fight? Mother's thin arms and legs, how can she beat her father who can lift herself with one hand and throw herself into the air? Isn't that mother going to be bullied?
He suddenly thought that the ancestor in the palace hadn't educated his father well a while ago, asking him to work harder, take care of his mother more, not bully his mother, and let his mother have a few more as soon as possible......
Nianbei felt that he had found something terrible, and when he was in a hurry, he cried at that time.
It's just hateful, his father is such a bad person! As soon as his father saw him crying, he immediately coaxed him to take him ashore to ride a horse and eat meat, and bought him a big paper kite and a big box of caramel candy.
Then, he forgot to take care of his mother.
In the next few days, it was even like this, and every time my father could do anything, several times, he was tired from eating dinner, and it was dawn when he woke up.
Ay! This made him sigh several times, this child's body is just not useful! ……
Nianbei looked at the haggard mother, and thought of all kinds of things on the ship again:
Several times when he went to greet his mother early in the morning, he could always see his mother beating her legs.
He was very concerned, but his mother said that his legs were just sore.
Sore legs? Why?
At that time, my mother was lazy, she slept until three poles a day, and said that she had no strength, but it was clear that the days on the boat were either eating or sleeping, and she didn't go ashore to play much, what was there to be tired of? And for two months, my mother was not fat at all!
Thinking about it at the moment, were my parents fighting at night? And apparently, it's Daddy who wins every time!
He suddenly remembered that once, he saw his mother wearing a stand-up collar, it was June God, isn't my mother afraid of prickly heat? He went to pull his mother's collar, but saw that there were a lot of red mosquito bags on his mother's white neck......
Thinking of this, Nianbei couldn't help but stomp his feet, and secretly scolded himself for not thinking deeply at that time? It is clear that the father does not let the mother sleep in the bed at night, and the mother has no tent to protect her, so she was bitten by mosquitoes like that! Daddy is too much!
The more Nian Bei thought about it, the more he thought that once he saw a bruise on his mother's arm, his mother was probably afraid that he would be worried, and smiled and said that he just rolled off the bed at night and accidentally hit ......
Negligence!
Negligence!
Obviously, my mother was kicked out of bed by my father! If my mother was protected by my father, she must have slept in the inner bed, how could she get out of bed?
The truth!
The truth!
For the past two months, my mother has been bullied by my father!
This is the real reason why my mother is sick!
But he, who is a son, didn't find out until this time!
On the same day, Xiao Nianbei's eyes were full of tears and he hugged Ziyu, who was pale due to morning sickness: "Mother, are you vomiting like this, is it because your father bullied you?" He asked a simple question, but no one knew how apprehensive he was. I am afraid of being affirmed, but I also want to be denied.
"Yes!" Cheng Ziyu glanced at Li Chun. "Your dad is the worst!"
Xiao Nian Beixin thought it was true, jumped off Cheng Ziyu's knee in a huff, and rushed up to punch his father's abdomen vigorously.
Knowing that he was not an opponent, he quickly retreated, fearing that his mother would be affected when his father counterattacked, so he hid behind his grandfather for the first time.
"Although you are my father, I must warn you that from now on, you are not allowed to bully my mother again, you are not allowed to get close to my mother, and you cannot sleep with my mother!"
The little guy slapped his chest loudly, and his hostility was clear, which drew laughter.
The corners of Li Chun's mouth twitched, and Cheng Ziyu hugged his son with a smile.
Later, after Cheng Ziyu talked with her son all night, she understood her son's worries.
It took nearly another month for her to convince the little guy that her father had no ill will towards her mother and was not bullying.
In fact, Nianbei didn't believe it, but the doctor said that there were two treasures in his mother's belly, so he reluctantly accepted the fact that his father's and mother's feelings were acceptable.
But he still crossed his waist and warned the arrogant father:
"You want me to believe you completely, unless you and your mother hurry up and give me a bunch of younger brothers and sisters to prove your sincerity. Otherwise, you don't want to sleep with your mother again, my mother will be guarded by me! ”
In order to let the particularly cunning father make a promise, Xiao Nianbei deliberately said this in front of a large number of people.
But the old fox picked him up, pointed at him quite solemnly, and promised him: "I will complete the task!" We are smart, meticulous and responsible, which is really amazing! Dad will behave well, you wait and see. ”
Then, his eyes narrowed with a smile, more like a fox. "Child's mother, you heard the child's voice, and you also heard the husband's promise, right? You must not disappoint the two of us, do you hear? ”
The old fox looked calculating, and Cheng Ziyu had a toothache. But the child was sincere and sincere, so Cheng Ziyu couldn't bear to deny it very distressedly.
The contrast between the expressions and expressions of the two is too great.
Therefore, in the midst of the laughter, she is the only one who is sad!
At that time, Cheng Ziyu made a decision: the old fox calculated one by one, and the child in his hands would not only become a shield, but also become a living chess piece.
This singing and harmony, one true and one false, how can she parry it in the future?
Therefore, it is better for the child to stay away from his father in the future.
So within two days of returning to Jingxi, Cheng Ziyu said that he had moved the old man to retreat, persuaded the third uncle to accompany the third aunt to recuperate for a while, and then lost the management of the Cheng family's workshop to Li Chun......
