When Tang Xiangxiang received the letter, he came back from the palace.

The princess had a daughter for the first time, and both mother and daughter were safe. In the past two months, under her care, coupled with the recovery of her young age, the princess has returned to her prenatal figure. However, Tang Xiangxiang's mood at this time was very heavy.

"It's all you, it's you! It's you who said that I can't give birth to a second one in a year, and His Royal Highness the Taisun won't come to my palace! The princess screamed and scolded angrily, carrying out her sad emotions.

Tang Xiangxiang was patient, and asked carefully for a long time before learning the reason. It turned out that during the New Year's Festival, the imperial grandson asked her that time: "In this situation of the princess, when is it better to have a second child?" ”

At that time, she thought that the imperial grandson disliked her eldest daughter and wanted a son, so she suggested: "At least one year later." ”

As a result, it was such a sentence that made the imperial grandson not set foot in the princess for more than a month. Yesterday, Concubine Taisun finally figured out the reason why His Royal Highness Taisun had not stayed overnight, how could she spare Tang Xiangxiang lightly?

Only then did Tang Xiangxiang know the meaning of the imperial grandson's question.

The grandson went to his wife just to ask for a son-in-law. As a husband, what he can give to the princess is only a son-in-law, or rather, the eldest son, which is the greatest respect he gives to the princess. Na, no, his favorite concubine, has not had the opportunity to conceive an heir so far. If his sweetheart has been wronged in this, he naturally has to make amends elsewhere.

Tang Xiangxiang wanted to say that Taisun directly hurt two women like this. One has gained fame, but he has been unhappy all his life, and the other has been favored, but he has not been able to raise his head for a lifetime, and it is impossible to say which is more pathetic.

Under the comparison of the two women of the imperial grandson, Tang Xiangxiang felt that he was at least not so pitiful.

First of all, between her and Qiu Shuisu, it's not that Qiu Shuisu doesn't like her. It was she who disliked Qiu Shuisu's heart and disgusted him with dirty, and refused to wronged herself. Secondly, she was lucky enough to give birth not only to sons, but also to two. Among them, the eldest son inherited the family business, and the second son was sent by her to the Mengxue Hall to take the career that his father has not yet completed.

The results of the comparison are very gratifying, but Tang Xiangxiang is still very uncomfortable in his heart and needs to be explained. Yes, Han Xiang said, "Madame is back, let-"

Tang Xiangxiang interrupted her: "I'll clean up and go over, you have a cup of tea and wait for me for a while."

Han Xiang hurriedly caught up and said her purpose: "Madame asks Female Doctor Tang to see the little young master!" ”

"I know."

Tang Xiangxiang, who had already gone away, lost these words, and instructed the maids around him to take care of Hanxiang carefully. After the maid served hot tea, Han Xiang thanked her, chatted with the maidservant, and asked, "Is your family the young grandmother Fang's family?"

The maid smiled and said: "The affairs of the back house are in the hands of the lady, but the affairs of the young grandmother are not the affairs of the back house."

Han Xiang silently wrote it down, and sighed again: "I didn't expect the Qiu family to be so rich. This location, this house, three into such a yard, let alone three or five thousand taels, right? ”

As a result, the maidservant girl asked, "Doesn't my sister-in-law know?" This is our young grandmother's private home. ”

When officials in the capital go north, they either buy or rent first. At the beginning of the Qiu family's northward journey, this was originally the plan. After Tang Xiangxiang found out, he said that he had a private house for marriage, and the Qiu family could live in it first, and then slowly find a house. can save money, Mrs. Qiu is naturally full of mouths. Doctor Qiu was thinking that he would not stay for a while, so he didn't say anything.

Tang Xiangxiang's house, next to Song Haitang's house in Shuntianfu, in the two alleys at the northeast entrance of Dengshikou, was bought ten years ago. Buying a house and tidying up, a total of two thousand taels. The surrounding area is full of merchants, the house is very easy to rent, and the rent has been half of the rent in ten years.

After the Qiu family moved in, Mrs. Qiu kept saying that it was not good here, and she was anxious to find a house and wanted to go to Xicheng. This house is three miles away from the east gate of the imperial city, and Doctor Qiu is walking into the palace. Mrs. Qiu came to find it according to this standard.

After looking for three months, Mrs. Qiu realized that she was too naïve. The house in the same location in Xicheng is not enough for the wealthy and high-ranking officials, where will the Qiu family buy it? It's simply priceless. As for the north, it is the Shuntian Mansion. The vacant land between the government and the imperial city is either an official residence or a residence of a high-ranking official.

Mrs. Qiu held it for a long time, but she didn't finish the house, and only under Qiu Yizheng's questioning did she tell the truth. Qiu Yizheng, who missed the opportunity, went to inquire with his colleagues. Ninety percent of colleagues temporarily rented houses, and then bought land from other cities to build new houses. Huang Taiyi, the only one who bought a house in the inner city, bought it ten miles from the west city, near the city gate. The price of the house is even more worrying, three thousand taels!

The Qiu family's house in Nanjing was bought by Qiu Shuisu when he ran out of family resources when he got married. Now, more than a decade has passed. The Qiu family also saved some furniture, but they all took it to buy land. The hand is full, and it is less than a thousand taels. If you sell the land you have saved over the years, you can buy a house. However, after 20 years of youth, Qiu Yizheng was reluctant to sell half of his life savings.

After hearing this, Mrs. Qiu quickly had an idea, and said directly: "You are so old, how many years can you do?" Just suffer a little grievance first and live here. ”

"Bo Ge'er is just a little doctor now, what can I get back?" Doctor Qiu was snorting coldly, his eyes full of dissatisfaction with his wife. dissatisfied with his wife's inability to give birth to a son, she gave birth to a son who was not good at sex.

Murder is the culprit, and Doctor Qiu did not oppose this plan. Qiu's family stayed directly. Over the past year, Mrs. Qiu has put her mother-in-law on the table several times. However, next door to Tang Xiangxiang's private house, Song Haitang's two-story mother-in-law lives!

Tang Xiangxiang thought that this was his friend's in-law's family, and he had to take care of one or two. Especially an old man like Mrs. He, who is old, has suffered a lot, and has lost a lot of money. She treats the two of the He family well, and the two of the He family reciprocate, so she has to teach her some principles of getting along with her in-laws.

After Mrs. Qiu couldn't get a bargain from her daughter-in-law, she finally found out that she was tired, and went to He's house to say that He was nosy. But a person like her, who prides herself on her identity, is not He Funiang's opponent at all.

He Funiang said directly: "What kind of score do you put with the old lady?" I'm a village woman, so what? My son is a two-rank jinshi, and your son is not even an old boy! ”

Mrs. Qiu, who didn't know the identity of He Fu, returned in shame and indignation, and since then she has been in peace.

The servant girl is Tang Xiangxiang's personal servant girl, and she is honored, and she talks about it and listens to Hanxiang. Before he finished speaking, Tang Xiangxiang had already prepared all the things. The supplies for the fourth child, the meeting gift for the four children of the Zheng family, and the gift for the Jiang family were full and half a car.

Mrs. Qiu peeped in the dark, and she was so distressed that she only spun around, but she didn't dare to come forward.

As for the Zheng family, the friends who have not seen each other for many years have their own understanding. Tang Xiangxiang knew the severity, so he first saw Xiaosi, because he said: "I landed in advance before I didn't grow well in my mother's womb, and after three or five years of raising, I will practice some simple self-defense techniques, and if I practice for a long time, I will definitely be no different from ordinary people." ”

Saying that, Tang Xiangxiang made a list of recipes and precautions, and wrote for half an hour, full of ten pages. The Jiang family, who had been watching from the side, was convinced that he wanted to leave Tang Xiangxiang for lunch.

Tang Xiangxiang was also polite and smiled.

Gu Yao said: "If you want to eat at my house, you have to do more work." My second sister-in-law is twenty-five or sixteen years old, and she has her first child, you can take a look. ”

Tang Xiangxiang said angrily: "What do you mean by talent?" Isn't it the best time to have a child at the age of twenty-five or sixteen? ”

Although Jiang had doubts, he did not intervene.

Gu Yao didn't care about her, and directly ordered his subordinates: "Go and invite the second lady." ”
