Chapter 224: Niang's thoughts are peculiar
After asking Li Bozhang's entourage, I learned that something had happened to the servant's family, and I wanted to ask Mrs. Li for leave, but unfortunately Mrs. Li went to Xiangshan, and the steward went out with Li Chongshan, and the only person in the family who could call the shots was Li Bozhang.
"Since it's a leave, why don't you tell your son-in-law?"
The entourage said: "Young Master Xu doesn't know, the affairs of this inner courtyard have always been decided by the lady, and my lord and son never interfere." Mrs. governs the family well, obeys her inside and out, and the old man does not often manage ...... It's inevitable that the hands will be raw. ”
The servant begged for no way, and when he saw Xu Yuan coming out, he pounced on Xu Yuan like the last straw and grabbed Xu Yuan's ankle.
"Xu Gongzi is doing well, begging for mercy for the little one, the little mother was seriously ill last night, if she doesn't go back, I'm afraid that I won't even be able to see her old man for the last time!"
The entourage scolded: "Gongzi Xu is a distinguished guest, how can you be allowed to pull and pull!" As he spoke, he stretched out his leg and kicked him.
Xu Yuan raised his hand to stop, bent down and let go of the servant's hand, "Is there still a possibility for your mother to be cured?" ”
The servant cried bitterly and shook his head, "No, last night the little sister hurriedly ran to tell the little one, crying so that her eyes were swollen, saying that she had invited a doctor, and the doctor asked the family to prepare a ......"
Xu Yuan's hand was clenched tightly, and he turned around and asked his entourage: "Your wife is not at home, but who have you ordered to take care of the affairs of the inner courtyard?" ”
"It's the mother-in-law who is in charge of my mother's clothes and my wife's side at four o'clock."
Xu Yuan said: "If you go and ask your mother to come over, I will tell him where your son is." ”
After a while, Guan's mother came and gave Xu Yuan a salute, "What is the matter with Xu Gongzi looking for a slave?" ”
"Guan mother is polite, I just learned from them that Guan mother is beautiful and kind, and she is kind to everyone...... There was a sudden change in his family in Liujia, and Mrs. Li is not here at this moment, so you can make an idea, and please allow him a few days off to go home to see him for the last time. ”
Mother Guan pursed her lips and smiled when she heard this, and the solemnity on her face retreated by half a point.
"What is Xu Gongzi talking about, whether the lady is there or not, this assumption is allowed."
"Then thank you mom." Xu Yuan took five taels of silver from his sleeve and handed it to Guan's mother, "Meddling in the inner courtyard of the Li Mansion is already overstepping, please ask Guan's mother to say a few kind words after Mrs. Li comes back, don't let Mrs. Li misunderstand me." ”
"Nature, Nature!" Guan Mom took it, and Xizizi promised Liujia three days off.
Liujia thanked Xu Yuan and kowtowed.
Xu Yuan gave him the only ten taels of silver left on his body, "It's not easy for mother to raise you, let her leave beautifully and beautifully." ”
"Xu Gongzi's great grace Rokujia has written down ......"
Xu Yuan couldn't stand his repeated kowtows and thanked him, and hurriedly left the Li Mansion. Passing by the cloth shop, I went in and picked up a piece of royal blue silk and a lapse of azure Songjiang muslin, and planned to send it to Pingyang's mother along with the family letter.
……
Ruan Miaoling hadn't seen Qin Jie for several days, and even more so on the fifth day of the first month.
She told Huang Liang to go out to inquire, only to know that he had purchased a mansion in Zaolin, saying that it was a mansion, but it was just a courtyard for him to enter, which was enough for him and Jinyi to live.
Seeing Ruan Miaoling lying listless on the kang, he opened the window and said, "The weather is good outside, can Miss practice boxing with Mrs.?" ”
Ruan Miaoling immediately became interested, and her eyes also brightened, "Take out the men's clothes made in Ruyang!" ”
Wen'er rummaged through the cabinets and found men's clothes and a pair of cloud water pattern satin boots from the box and changed them with Ruan Miaoling.
Princess Baozhen studied the map of the northwest in the room, and there were three square tables in the center of the bright room in a row, and there was a huge sand table on the table, showing the terrain of the northwest.
Ruan Miaoling entered the house, and Princess Baozhen put down the map, touched her hair and said, "Stay at home and be bored? ”
"Sort of." Ruan Miaoling replied without hesitation, and looked at the sand table and the map, "Is it good for my mother to teach me boxing?" ”
Princess Baozhen was stunned, if a girl wants to learn the kung fu of self-protection, there are other options, boxing and hurting hands.
"Do you remember the whip method that my mother taught you before?"
Ruan Miaoling smiled softly: "Of course, when I went back to Dafu Temple, I also used my mother's whip to beat those nasty black shadows to the ground!" ”
Princess Baozhen looked at her daughter's smile, her heart almost softened, and this proud little appearance looked like her father. Thinking of Ruan Yanliang, a trace of pain flashed in Princess Baozhen's eyes, afraid that Ruan Miaoling would think too much about it and quickly hide it.
"If my mother doesn't like me to practice boxing, you can learn something else, as long as you don't learn medicine or embroidery."
Princess Baozhen smiled and glanced at Ruan Miaoling, "How can there be a daughter who doesn't learn embroidery, it will be of great use in the future, if you accidentally fall and are pierced by a sharp weapon, you can use embroidery skills to mend the wound." ”
"Poof!" Ruan Miaoling couldn't help laughing, she thought that her mother would say that she would marry in the future, and she could sew and mend her husband and children.
Mother's idea is always so peculiar and interesting!
"Did the mother's previous wounds be repaired by the mother herself?"
Princess Baozhen thought of something, her ears were slightly red, and she lowered her eyes and said: "I grew up in the military camp since I was a child, and I have no time to learn embroidery, it is all your father's help." ”
Wen'er and Runxiang hid outside the curtain and giggled restrainedly, the general and his wife were really in love in the past, but when they thought that the embroidery work was used on smooth skin, both of them had a tight scalp.
"Our Miaoling is also fifteen years old this year, and my mother didn't do well, so I couldn't choose a good family for you."
Mrs. Ruan previously chose Xu Yuan, the second son of the Xu family, for Miaoling, and I heard that Xu Yuan personally ruined the marriage contract and let Miaoling do her own thing.
Xu Yuan respects Miaoling, and naturally he will be respected by her, but I don't know what Miaoling's attitude towards Xu Yuan is.
Ruan Miaoling said: "My mother said this too early, the cause of my father's death has not been investigated, and my daughter will not marry." ”
Princess Baozhen stroked Ruan Miaoling's hand and suddenly stopped, she clearly ordered Gu Ren not to tell Miaoling about this, how could Miaoling know?
"Mother, it wasn't Uncle Ren who told me." Ruan Miaoling nervously observed Princess Baozhen's expression, she was afraid that her mother would be angry, sad, and blame herself.
"The cause of my father's death is strange, my daughter found it herself, do you remember the relics you asked me to find?"
Princess Baozhen nodded, the emperor's edict was that she watched her husband put it into the rabbit tube, no matter what happened over the years, the rabbit tube never left her.
"Not only this, but I also saw the accounts left by Shoufu Chen Buhou Chen in Ruyang, which recorded the amount of official silver in the first year of Chengkang."
Princess Baozhen's expression was shocked, "Who gave this thing to you?" ”
Chen Bu was waiting for the Henan Mansion Patrol, so he didn't mention this matter to her at all.
"Second Miss Cao Jia, her aunt Cao Yun is the wife of Shen Qingqiu, the former prefect of Ruyang, and this account was handed over to Second Miss Cao by Cao Yun."
Ruan Miaoling didn't plan to hide these things from Princess Baozhen, now that her mother is her backer, the two can discuss together to find out the truth.
