Princess Pingwu said: "He went back twice, and said that the horse has been in Beijing since he was a child, which means that he grew up in Beijing, and he doesn't speak much in his hometown. ”

The meaning of the words is a bit of a refutation of the words of the concubine just now.

Old Concubine Jia shook her head and said, "You don't understand, the leaves fall back to the roots, and the nostalgia ......."

She looked into the distance, her eyes full of memories, "Does the colt often eat food from the south?" Humming a hometown tune sometimes? ”

Princess Pingwu just wanted to say that the concubine never hummed a minor tune, but when she saw her mother's expression, she stopped.

"When I was a child, I was afraid of a famine, so my grandfather saved some grain every year and kept it in the cellar in the winter. One year, when the harvest was bad, every family went out to ask for food, and your grandfather took your uncle with the villagers, and no one told him if he came home again to secretly cook the hidden grain. There's no way, if someone knows, if a family comes to borrow a little, their own family is not enough, not to mention, then the people who can't borrow will hate you for the rest of their lives. Your grandmother couldn't bear to starve her mother's family, and wanted to steal a little, and was beaten by your grandfather. I didn't understand at that time, I didn't usually see your grandfather so stingy, my grandfather said, I can only protect my own children, because in the face of disasters, people are wolves. I am a wolf, and others are also wolves, and if we are kind, we can only harm the whole family and become meat in the wolf's mouth. When the daughters feel sorry for their mother's family, my aunt secretly gave her mother's food, and then her mother's family came to borrow, but the uncle didn't give it, because he couldn't afford it, there were too many people who borrowed, and his children would starve to death if they gave it to outsiders. Only then did my mother understand, and said that my father fought well, otherwise the family would not be able to keep it, and many people starved to death that year, and we had that little hidden food, that is, to drink porridge where you can see rice grains every day, and your uncle and I survived. ”

Princess Pingwu quietly listened to her mother concubine, how could she understand the suffering of a princess who grew up with golden branches and jade leaves, but she felt that her mother was like she said she was old, and every time she came, she would talk about something about her childhood in her hometown.

Looking at the mother concubine in her memory, she heard the laughter of the Huo family girl outside, in this life of a woman, Princess Pingwu is glorious and rich.

Gao Zhao and Jia Beishi were looking at impatiens outside, Huo Yinggui said that Xichang Mansion also had them, and she would dye her nails every year, and she also said that when the flowers bloomed, they would dye them together.

Jia Beishi and Gao Zhao both agreed to her, Jia Beishi is a gentleman, Gao Zhao is not familiar with people who don't talk much, and now that he is married, he is afraid of losing face, and he must be reserved, so he listens to Huo Yinggui's chatter.

However, Gao Zhao didn't think she was ruthless at all, cheerful and lively, crisp and straightforward.

Although Jia Beishi doesn't say much, he doesn't say a word, he can always say just right, not a cold scene, so as not to make Huo Yinggui laugh alone and be embarrassed.

When Princess Pingwu came out, she said that the concubine was tired and didn't have to go in to say goodbye, and the three of them followed Princess Pingwu out of the palace together.

Gao Zhao helped his mother-in-law into the car and watched Huo Yinggui wave to her.

When I returned to the house, I saw a car at the door, which was often taken by King Qing.

Princess Pingwu asked Gao Zhao to go back to the backyard, she estimated that something was wrong, so she didn't let her daughter-in-law go to ask for peace.

When I entered the house, I saw the horse and King Qing with a solemn face, and I didn't know what was going on.

Seeing Princess Pingwu coming back, Prince Qing asked about the situation in the palace, saying that early this morning, the Ministry of Rites handed over the fold, but the person did not go, saying that he had a sudden illness and asked for his resignation.

The emperor sent a physician and came back to say that Li Haituo had vertigo and could not stand.

After the death of the old Shangshu of the Criminal Department, the Shangshu was vacant, and Qi Kaisen, the left attendant of the Criminal Department, was temporarily served by Qi Kaisen, according to the convention, if nothing else, the future Shangshu would be Qi Kaisen.

And Qi Kaisen is the maiden brother of the second princess's mother-in-law.

Now that the Ministry of Rites is suddenly vacant, I don't know which one the emperor will choose.

Princess Pingwu listened to the situation and couldn't talk about it, she didn't care about the government affairs, and she was not familiar with the officials in the capital.

just jokingly said: "The emperor's strength in picking the door, maybe he will choose the same one as him, the twelve eunuchs in the palace are not dedicated to following the emperor, not to mention the concubines, that is, the prince and princess want to be loose and can only make up for it with their mothers, and it is more difficult to make the twelve eunuchs spend more money than ascending to the sky." ”

King Qing's eyes lit up, and he said with a smile: "Then I guess it's Lord Huai, the grandfather of his nephew and son-in-law, if you want to say that you want to pick the door, Lord Huai has to be the first, and the emperor is far worse than him." ”

Princess Pingwu was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "The marriage of the five princes and the six princes is unlucky." ”

The second daughter, Wu Yu'e, complained about her in-laws every time she returned to her parents' house, saying that her grandfather, the general ledger of the family, checked the accounts every day, and the whole family had to be trained for one more child. I went to the yamen during the day, and went home at night to check the accounts, and I worked diligently and never rested. Every woman in the house who wants to eat something delicious is to get a dowry subsidy.

Qing Wang Ye clapped his hands and laughed, "If it's Lord Huai, there will be a good show to watch, haha!" ”

Wu Yuma shook his head with a smile and said, "How can the affairs of the government be child's play." ”

"That's maybe, I see that the emperor is getting older and more willful, always like to be surprised, see others confused and think they are so smart, no one can guess him, every time I go to say something, and then put on a look that you guess again, he is very proud, and he is happy to give silver."

Princess Pingwu persuaded: "Don't always ask for silver, make him unhappy, my mother is still in the palace." ”

Qing Wang Ye spread his hands and said: "I don't want to ask for silver, how can I explain that I spend so much?" Sometimes I also buy good things for the emperor's nephew, otherwise how could he give me the silver? ”

"That's what you said you asked for from the king of the county to buy him the silver, can he be happy?"

Qing Wangye said: "So, I'm going to come and go, it's not this flower to that one, how much can I spend?" ”

"You should also be restrained, don't mess with him."

Qing Wang Ye agreed, and said: "I found a maid for my nephew and daughter-in-law, her father and mother are from Fujian, so she can speak Fujian since she was a child, and her father and brother stay in my house to do things, she follows you to Fujian, and it is good to be a translator by the nephew and daughter-in-law's side, otherwise after going back, I can't understand a word when dealing with the woman in the house, and it is not convenient." ”

Princess Pingwu was grateful to her brother for his thoughtfulness, but pretended to be aware, and said, "Why didn't you arrange someone for me?" I don't understand what that's being said either. ”

"As long as my brother-in-law can understand, you husband and wife go in and out together, you don't need to."

Wu Juma said: "I don't understand it now, I found a move, speaking my hometown, I have to guess, so, this way, let Xunsheng follow and learn together, understand a little, it's best to say a few words, otherwise I won't be able to call people when I go back." ”

Qing Wang Ye Ha Le, said: "I asked first, what did the husband say, said it was Tang Touch." Ha ha! Did the husband lie down and touch it? ”

He didn't care that Princess Pingwu glared at him, so he had to let Wu Yuma say what his daughter-in-law said and what his son said.
