Chapter 123: Kittens

"Queen Tong is very good to you, but this method is a little tougher." Ning Liang whispered to Chen Shuangchuan.

Chen Shuangchuan smiled bitterly, this time again, it was the fourth time, such a great kindness, she was afraid that she would not be able to repay it.

Ignore these for the time being, by September, Chen Shuang's wound had finally healed gradually, but his body was still weak, he couldn't even hold the bowl, he could only stand for a while, Ning Liang was afraid that it would take a year or two to recover slowly, and it was usually best to move a little, so as not to freeze his hands and feet in the future.

He Jinbao was not a little impatient, he came back early every day, rubbed his hands and feet for Chen Shuang to activate the blood, and when the weather was good, he would often hug Chen Shuang and come out, and sit in the yard for a while, talking and not talking, just watching He Jue running around with a small kettle.

The newly-born girl was named by Mr. Lin, because she was weak, she had a single word, hoping that she could grow as lush as grass and trees.

However, because this word is relatively rare, He Jue often can't pronounce it well, seeing that this little girl's voice is small, she said that it is the same as a kitten, but it makes He Rui have a little kitten nickname, and the famous big name is less.

Chen Shuangchuan is still sick, the decoction is constant, and the milk is less, so naturally she can't take the child, but she is really happy about this kitten, and she feels a little guilty, and feels that if it weren't for her, this girl would not be so small, and she asked the nurse to bring her over to see it several times every day.

He Jinbao was a little faint, he only felt that it was because of He Xiaomei that Chen Shuangchuan was so inconvenient, but after all, she was her own girl, and she was ruthless, neither particularly close nor particularly annoying, and never took the initiative to ask.

Even a child as young as He Jue could see the difference, and quietly ran over and asked Chen Shuangchuan: "Mother, why doesn't Dad like kittens, is it because the kittens are ugly?" But the master said that the mother should not think that the son is ugly, and the father should not think the sister is ugly, and the father did not do it right. ”

He Jinbao laughed twice, and he didn't speak, but he really slowly began to change, and occasionally he would hold He Kitten and walk around a few times to tease her.

For the officials of the Zhou Dynasty, September is a very busy month, the 19th is the thousand autumns of Queen Tong, the 28th is Sima Zixia's longevity, this year is not as good as previous years, it is the second year of He Jinbao's recovery, and it is for Chen Shuang's illness, it is to ask for people and medicine, Sima Zixia is to give a great favor, so this gift should be a little thicker.

Chen Shuangchuan thought of it and discussed with He Jinbao and said: "Naturally, it is necessary to weigh three points, but it is better not to add things that are too valuable, so as not to be eye-catching." ”

He Jinbao also prepared the next gift list, and when he heard Chen Shuangchuan talk about it, he brought it over and told her: "I asked Master Lin to refer to it, drew up a list, and read it to you." ”

"A longevity jade rhino incense burner, a pair of longevity jade bottles, a volume of immortal deer and crane songs, and a pair of Duanshan jade inkstones. gave the queen less an incense burner, replaced it with a peach birthday picture, and added two pieces of muslin woven like jade. ”

"The persimmons in the yard should be ripe in two days, add a basket of persimmons, two baskets of grapes, although it is not a valuable thing, it is always rare to grow it yourself, and then send a few persimmon seedlings into the palace, just say that it is for the prince of Yi to play." Chen Shuang groaned for a moment, feeling that it was almost appropriate.

He Jinbao was a little unhappy, and said: "Those are raised by you with a lot of effort, it is better to add some gold, silver and jade, why waste things?" ”

Seeing that He Jinbao didn't quite understand, Chen Shuangchuan just told him the matter carefully, and only said: "The queen treats our family like this, it is already a great favor and difficult to repay, and this little thing is worth something." And...... The emperor must have known these things. ”

If you want to think about being in the court for a long time, it is most taboo to form a party for personal gain, He Jinbao naturally understands these truths, but thinking about it unconsciously, he was actually rubbed on the standard grass of the two factions, and he couldn't help but feel a little depressed.

The army is better, after all, it is the descendant of Emperor Sima Zixia, and Sima Zixia's throne is gradually stable, so it probably won't cause any big trouble.

And this Empress Tong's faction, He Jinbao was greatly distressed, and quietly said to Chen Shuangchuan: "The emperor is just past the year of his establishment, and it is the most taboo for us to tie up the prince like this. ”

"Being ungrateful, I'm afraid it's even more taboo by the emperor." Chen Shuangchuan disagreed with what He Jinbao said, refuted it, and said, "The queen saved our lives three times and twice, and we are not grateful, but we are afraid that the emperor will know that we are ruthless, and we will inevitably have a thorn in our hearts, and we don't know when it will start." Just be closer, that's a big deal...... Up, horizontal and vertical are not mixed, and it is probably possible, right? ”

Speaking of the back, Chen Shuangchuan is also a little unconvinced, the most unpredictable is the emperor's heart, and it is so difficult to find a perfect method.

He Jinbao also felt that Chen Shuangchuan had some truth in what he said, so he could only respond, and said sullenly: "It's really boring to live this life, it's better to find an opportunity, resign and go back to the countryside to live a happy life." ”

Ben just said it, just thinking about it, but he really thought about He Jinbao himself a little excitedly, and really gave birth to a few indifferent moods of returning to the field, but this court is still unstable, and there are occasional commotions at the border.

These are naturally later words, this year's September is the same as in previous years, Qianqiu and Wanshou have lived together, and there is no big deal just to give a table, Chen Shuangchuan can't move around normally, naturally he can't go, only prepare the gift and hand it over to He Jinbao to take.

Waited until it was dark, eight or nine o'clock, He Jinbao came back, Chen Shuangchuan hurriedly asked someone to bring the warm food on the stove, He Jinbao stuffed his head and ate two big bowls before putting down and said to Chen Shuangchuan: "It's still good at home, the imperial meal looks good, but it can't be eaten happily." ”

Chen Shuangchuan also passed through those banquets, so many eyes stared, only trembling, where else could he eat, when he heard He Jinbao say this, he smiled and said, "Why didn't you tell the emperor this?" ”

He Jinbao also laughed, withdrew the food, brought water, and after washing, carefully carried Chen Shuangchuan to bed, while helping Chen Shuangchuan rub his hands and feet, and invigorate his blood, while talking about the interesting things at the banquet, which family gave a big gift, which family gave a gift too light, which family actually sent a picture of a crane sending a child, and it was a big red face on the spot.

Speaking of the gifts given by his family, although some people laughed twice about the persimmon grapes, Sima Zixia was very happy, and let people put them out on the spot, so that the ministers could taste the freshness, and there was nothing to say.

The most eye-catching thing in this is probably Du Qiutang, Chen Shuangchuan still clearly remembers the fire tree and silver flowers and green jade screens sent by their family a few years ago, but it was very popular, at that time Du Qiutang was just a small long history, and he was not qualified to enter the palace.

Now that Du Qiutang has reached the high position of a waiter, it stands to reason that this ceremony is also rising.

Queen Tong, He Jinbao didn't see it, it's hard to say, Sima Zixia's side, Du Qiutang presented a pair of Hepu pearls, which are the size of lotus seeds, round and smooth, and are indeed rare treasures in the world.

Sima Zixia looked a little displeased, and only said: "These beads and jade should be presented to the queen." ”

Du Qiutang's smile condensed on the spot, and he quickly kowtowed, but Sima Zixia had already taken it and didn't say anything else.

General Li and He Jinbao were on good terms, and they quietly discussed this strange situation, and they all felt that Sima Zixia was probably about to attack Du Qiutang.

"What did he do wrong?" Chen Shuangchuan was taken aback when he heard it, a few days ago, when He Jinbao was not there, Du Qiutang's wife Song Mingmei also sent someone here to reprimand, saying that He Jinbao was rude and trespassed on her house.

He Jinbao smiled bitterly and said: "The impeachment of the imperial history is accused of greedy ink, Du Qiutang is such a person, he has always loved money, and the emperor also knows it, he can still hold it down before, but now it seems that he can't tolerate him." ”

Hearing He Jinbao say this, Chen Shuangchuan couldn't help but be a little frightened, and said worriedly: "It is said that it is easy to share hardships and hardships, and it is difficult to share wealth and prosperity, should the emperor be afraid that your group of people will rely on the past friendship to run rampant, so you borrowed Du Qiutang's incident as a warning?" ”

"The emperor, he is not that kind of person......" He Jinbao was also a little suspicious, although he believed that it would not be so, but he couldn't stand Chen Shuangchuan's worries, and acted more and more carefully and low-key, in order to take care of Chen Shuangchuan, he had rarely gone out, and in the days that followed, these entertainments were almost all clean, and he stayed at home wholeheartedly.

After severing relations with the He family over there, there were no relatives in the capital, Chen Shuangchuan was sick again, and when He Kitten was full moon, almost no one mentioned it, so he was not prepared to pass it plainly. In October, Chen Caichun from the countryside dragged someone to deliver a package from the boss.

In addition to the dried fish and shrimp and seaweed, there is also a complete set of pure gold children's jewelry, collars, bracelets and anklets, all decorated with small bells and jingling bells.

Because he was afraid that Chen Caichun would be worried, Chen Shuangchuan never told the countryside about his illness, and he waited for the letter after He Xiaomei was born, so this package that was originally a full moon ceremony came much later.

The letter was written by Chen Shunan, and he probably didn't know what to say, but he just chattered that the family was very good, Chen Caichun was also very good, the field was good, and the salt fields were good.
