In the Zhongguo Mansion, Pingrui saved his little servant, but was punished by his father to kneel in the study.

More than an hour later, the people sent to the west of the city rushed back, put down two hairpins and a pair of bracelets, saying that there were indeed women's things in the second son's private house, but the people had disappeared.

Listening to the description of the next person, it was just a leaky courtyard, hidden in the deep alleys of the market, Zhu Chengye was even more angry, and after drinking them, he grabbed the teacup on the table and threw it at Pingrui.

The teacup was not thrown away, it was shattered, and the second lady heard the movement in front of the door, rushed in to protect her son and said, "Master, you have something to teach him well, if you hurt the child, won't it hurt you too?" ”

Pingrui stood up on his own, and the couple were dumbfounded, and he asked his father: "What's wrong with me in buying a private house?" Is it a violation of the law of the Great Qi? ”

Zhu Chengye was so angry that his long beard flew up, and he scolded angrily: "You are still hard-mouthed, you should really be alone and quiet, you live in the sky, and I won't care about you." You raise women outside, how old are you, and your hair hasn't grown yet, so you raise women? Spread it out, and you will lose all my face and your brother's face. ”

"Yes, your face, my brother's face, I don't have anything to do." Ping Rui smiled faintly, "It's not as good as my father, just treat me as if you never gave birth to a son like me, and you don't have to worry about my business anymore." A person who is not remembered at home, outsiders are afraid that they don't know that the Zhu family has a second son, so why should you worry about it. ”

Zhu Chengye rushed into the blood, looking for things randomly, grabbed the paperweight on the table and was about to smash it on his son's head, but was stopped by the second lady, he pushed his wife away and scolded: "It's you, a loving mother and a more defeated child, what do you do at home all day long, he moves things outside, are you also blind?" ”

Ping Rui stepped forward to block his mother behind him and faced his father stiffly: "Even a three-year-old child knows that the son is not the fault of the father, what are you doing with your mother?" My father has always been like this, but whenever there is trouble, it is my mother's fault, she has not done a good job, and when she has nothing to do, she spends her days in her aunt's house, and if something happens, she has to ask her mother to take care of everything. What are you doing? Is he busy becoming the prime minister of the dynasty, or the general who commands the three armies? ”

There was a loud bang, Zhu Chengye slapped his son in the face, the room was quiet, and the second lady was already frightened by the father and son.

Zhu Pingluo entered the door, grabbed his younger brother's collar, and said to his father: "I'll teach him a lesson, Daddy, you can dissipate your anger and rest with your mother earlier." ”

Ping Rui struggled a few times, was kicked by the eldest brother, dragged him out, and the second lady did not forget to chase after him and said: "Don't hurt him, Luo'er, don't hurt your brother." ”

The young lady brought Aunt Mei to come, Aunt Mei persuaded the old man to leave, the young lady helped her mother-in-law back to the room, the second lady cried heartbroken, she couldn't believe that the youngest son, who had always been the most well-behaved, had become the most rebellious one.

She cried and cried, stopped and asked her daughter-in-law, "Did you hear anything just now, did she hear what Rui'er said about your father in Mei's house?" ”

The young lady shook her head: "My aunt and I waited on the left corridor, and we came here when we saw that the prime minister brought the second brother out." ”

"It's okay, it's okay...... the second lady sobbed, "I'm happy that my son feels sorry for me, but he is young, where does he understand the affairs of adults, and he only wrongs me." In the past two days, both father and son have not been good, saying that nothing will work, let them calm down first. ”

"The Xiang Guild will talk to the second brother and find out what happened." The young lady comforted her mother-in-law, "Father, he is in the officialdom, and he has always been upright and honest, so he is naturally afraid of this kind of indulgent womanhood." But then again, the officials, masters, sons, and brothers in the capital, there are a few people who don't hide in the private house of the outside house, they can't say that our family, we have to compare, and the Zhu family is the most innocent. ”

The second lady suppressed her tears and said angrily: "You are silent on weekdays, why are you so good at saying it today?" ”

The young lady hurriedly said: "It's all taught to me by Xianggong, I'm afraid you will be angry." ”

Seeing that Zhou's mother was coming, the young lady handed over her mother-in-law to her and stepped back first.

The second lady asked, "Are you all alarmed by the old and young in this family?" ”

Mother Zhou said helplessly: "It's like this, but I can't hide it, but the slave maid said something inappropriate, is the second master making a fuss, is it worth such a thing?" ”

The second lady sighed: "You don't know, he has been very unsatisfactory in the court recently, and the personnel of the ministry is turbulent, so he has only returned to Beijing for a long time to sit down, and I am afraid that he will be transferred elsewhere." It's hard to say whether it's a promotion or a demotion, and every day my heart hangs in the air, and I don't like anything. At this juncture, his own son poked his lungs, you didn't hear it just now, Rui'er's kid was really the opposite, and he actually sarcastically mocked his father to his face. ”

Mother Zhou wrenched a hot handkerchief for Mrs. and persuaded: "The master is also stubborn, please take care of this matter, I'm afraid it's complete." ”

"Don't mention it." The second lady said, "I still counted the other end of the big house, but I didn't know that my backyard had already burned down. ”

At this time, Aunt Mei's maidservant came to pass the word, saying that the second master had rested, and asked the lady to rest earlier.

The second lady sighed and said to Zhou's mother: "Tomorrow, the old lady is there, you go and deal with it, I don't want to see anyone." ”

Tossing in the middle of the night, when it was already past the child, Fuyi stayed in the house of Yunzhi in the inner courtyard and covered a quilt with her.

The two girls couldn't sleep, and after Yunzhi returned to the room, she didn't speak, and only then did she say: "Do you hear Fuyi, she is a woman from a drama troupe, I naturally have no ill will towards others, but she is like this, in the eyes of my father, she is a prostitute and a fan, don't say that marrying a wife and being a small sex is not successful." ”

Fu Yi was very sad in his heart, if the family knew that the girl Rouyin had been sold to Willow Lane, Flower Street......

Yunzhi turned over and said, "My second brother is too brave, obviously from the first step, he knows that this is a dead end, and he still has to go." Sure enough, when he insisted on going to Guanglu Temple, my father beat him to no avail, and finally had to compromise, and the whole family was taken aback at that time, but I didn't expect the second brother, who had always been obedient and obedient, to be so rebellious. thought it would be fine in the future, but after a few years, he was going to scare everyone's jaws again. ”

Fu Zhiyunzhi eased up, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and said with a smile: "You just kept quiet, which scared me." ”

Yunzhi said: "I figured it out, without my second brother's business, my father and mother will not let me go, why should I squeeze my own brother, is he going to send me to be a little wife?" ”

Fu Yi touched her arm: "There won't be that day." ”

Yun Zhi smiled bitterly: "My father and mother are also miserable, there is a son who is silent but rebellious, and my daughter who never stops, Dongyuan is destined to be not peaceful, my brother has passed, and then I will turn them upside down." ”

I don't know what to say, what I can say has already been said, who can understand the hesitation in the heart of the rhyme, and find someone to talk to, I'm afraid that people still think the rhyme is verbose.

She said, "Go to bed early......

Yun Zhi was very curious: "I only glanced at it in a hurry that day, and I couldn't see the appearance of the real people, I really want to take a good look, is my second brother really fascinated by beauty?" ”

Fu Yi coaxed her: "It's late, I don't know what will happen tomorrow, we must have the spirit to deal with it." ”

Yun Zhi arched into her arms and coquettishly said: "You are soft and fragrant, it smells so good." ”

The good sisters snuggled up to each other, and the night of chickens and dogs finally passed.

Early the next morning, in Xinghua Hall, Zhu Chengqian was wearing an official robe in Liu's house, and the eldest lady came unexpectedly, and Aunt Liu immediately stood aside, not daring to raise her head.

The eldest lady picked up the clothes for her husband with her own hands, wore a crown and belt, straightened every corner of her clothes, took a few steps back and looked at it, and said with a smile: "It's done, the lord should go to the court, it's better to come back early." ”

Zhu Chengqian said: "Look at your complexion, you didn't sleep well last night?" ”

The eldest lady smiled faintly: "It's fun to watch the play, I can't bear to sleep, our family hasn't had such a lively thing for a long time." ”

Zhu Chengqian said: "Tomorrow I will go to the paddock and sit for a day, it will be very hard to travel and travel, so take a good rest today, and don't pay attention to irrelevant things." ”

The eldest lady seemed to be deliberately provoking her husband, her long eyebrows were raised lightly, and the corners of her lips smiled: "It just reminds me of what happened more than 20 years ago, and the people I didn't see back then, but now I really want to take a look, look at Pingrui's child's eyes, but it's good to have his uncle." ”

Zhu Chengqian looked indifferent and said, "I'm going out, you have a good rest." ”

The couple left the house one after the other, and they didn't seem to care about the Liu family standing next to them, and Aunt Liu breathed a sigh of relief and sat down on the couch.

Those words just now, the eldest lady was satirizing the eldest master twenty years ago, who in this family doesn't know, no matter how the third prince looks at it, it doesn't look like he picked it up.

Naturally, these rights and wrongs have nothing to do with her, but the eldest lady is unhappy, and her life can't be better, and she would rather not be noticed at this moment, even if she hides in the corner for the rest of her life, it is better than being beaten and scolded and tortured.

However, last night's unevenness, not only did not properly solve it, but today there was a new trouble, Zhu Rong rushed back to the forbidden army mansion on an errand, and found several colleagues smiling at him, or patting him on the shoulder and saying, "You can do it." ”

He was confused, until he waited for the opening of the frontier, and he asked curiously: "You took Miss Yan shopping in the middle of the night last night?" ”

Zhu Rong frowned: "No, why do you say that?" ”

Kaijiang said: "Someone saw you and took a woman to hang out on the street in the middle of the night, I thought it was Miss Yan, isn't it even you?" ”

"It's me, but that person ......" Zhu Rong glanced left and right, and said, "I'm trying to find a way to find a proper place to place that girl, who is the one my second brother wants to marry." ”

Kaijiang came to be interested: "The second son's sweetheart? But...... Why are I hanging out with you in the middle of the night? ”

Zhu Rong covered his mouth: "You be quiet." ”

Kaijiang said: "There are rumors about you outside, saying that you are wandering in the flower street, traveling with prostitutes, and never returning home at night." ”
