It was getting late, and Dongyu was really tired for a day, so she lay down and fell asleep.

The citron beside Mrs. Sheng said and asked Rose or Orange to walk to Madame's side.

I was about to ask what Mother Yang, who was next to Mrs. Xue Wu, said in the afternoon.

When Luo's mother saw it, she asked Rose and Tangerine to serve Dongyu and help the nurse take care of the child, and she personally followed the citron to Yuanyang Pavilion. She was the only one in the house in the afternoon, and I was afraid that Rose and Orange Red would not be able to speak clearly.

Mrs. Sheng saw that Luo's mother came in person, and asked the maid to move the brocade for her to sit on, and said with a smile: "Just let the maids go for a while, and leave the yard, who will take care of Ah Jin?" ”

Luo's mother also smiled and said, "Rose and Orange are in front of you, all carefully." In the afternoon, it was the slave maid who served in the inner room, thinking that the lady was going to ask Mother Yang's words, and the slave maid answered more neatly than others. ”

Mrs. Sheng bowed slightly, and asked her what Mother Yang said.

"It's just to send some medicinal herbs. Miss Twelve is about to get married, and Mother Yang said this and talked to her grandmother for a long time. Luo's mother said.

Mrs. Sheng sighed, not quite convinced, but she didn't ask deeply.

The mother's family was a little embarrassed, and she was troubled by the stepmother who didn't care about decency to her in-law's house, or in her confinement, Dongyi's face and heart must be unbearable. Mrs. Sheng asked kindly, thinking about comforting, but when she saw Luo's mother refusing, she thought that Dongyu couldn't get over that hurdle in her heart, and immediately stopped saying more.

Sheng Xiuyi came back from the outer courtyard and went to Mrs. Sheng's courtyard to greet Mrs. Sheng. I happened to see Luo's mother in Mrs. Sheng's yard, and said casually: "Don't serve in front of grandma, but something?" ”

Mrs. Sheng smiled and relieved Luo's mother: "In the afternoon, my mother-in-law's mother sent some medicinal materials to Ah Jin, I called Luo's mother over and asked what she said, and when I went back, did I send it properly."

Sheng Xiu was stunned, and he sighed. He invited An, and Luo's mother followed him back to the Jingzhi Hospital.

For the maids and mothers around Dongyi, Sheng Xiuyi was mostly indifferent. On weekdays, he rarely instructs them, but he doesn't treat them lightly. There was no fluctuation in his voice, and he asked Luo's mother: "Grandma's mother has sent people to see grandma in the afternoon?" ”

Luo's mother said yes.

"What are you going to do?" He asked again.

Luo's mother said: "Send some medicinal herbs to the grandmother to replenish her body"

This is also human nature, if it is normal. He doesn't think about it.

But when he was drinking outside today, Sheng Xiuyi heard something, so Luo's mother's words, he knew that they were perfunctory.

King Xingping returned the four princes to Emperor Yuanchang, who was very happy and rewarded him with 8,000 acres of fertile land and a county seat as a fief.

King Xingping promised Sheng Xiuyi to seek an official position for Yin Yan. With fiefdoms. He transferred the relationship between the county order and the ministry that was originally arranged in Li County, Shandong Province to the fiefdom.

The post of county magistrate of Lixian County was vacant, so he gave it to Yin Yanzhi.

Although Yin Yanzhi didn't know why King Xingping agreed to Sheng Xiuyi to be an official for him, he also knew that Sheng Xiuyi asked for this official position for him, and he was very grateful. He will take office the day after tomorrow, so he will invite a good friend to drink for the next two days.

When we were drinking tonight, everyone was drunk, so they made fun of Sheng Xiuyi, saying that he was in constant debt everywhere. Let the sister-in-law fall in love with him.

"The twelfth miss of the Xue family, is she the sister of Mrs. Sister-in-law?" That Qingke was from Lord Xiang's mansion, and he had a few glasses of wine. I couldn't control my mouth, "Miss Xue Twelve went to a banquet in our mansion and had an argument with Princess Hexu's beloved daughter, and one by one, 'It's not allowed to say that the prince of the Sheng family is not'." In the end, I cried, and actually said, 'Don't insult Sheng Lang'. ”

The audience laughed and made fun of Sheng Xiuyi.

Some people even made limerick poems sourly: "It's hard to pay for the spring heart, just because my brother-in-law is Sheng Lang!" ”

Another laugh.

This group of people ate and drank, and they were so open-mouthed, Sheng Xiuyi listened with a smile, and there was no interface. There is no blame, let them joke. But I felt irritable in my heart.

That time at the fifth room of the Xue family, Sheng Xiuyi saw all the performance of the twelve girls in his heart, and he felt uncomfortable at that time. And now it's a joke like that!

However, it has not yet spread. It was only because the Qingke was from Lord Xiang's mansion that he knew about it.

Back home. But I heard that the fifth lady sent the mother who was in charge to the Sheng family, could it have something to do with this matter?

"In addition to the grandmother's mother sending someone to deliver medicine, is there also the incident of the twelfth lady of the Xue family making trouble in Lord Xiang's mansion?" Sheng Xiuyi thought and asked Luo's mother. His voice was always cold in front of outsiders, but his tone was with some affirmation.

Luo's mother was shocked and asked, "How do you know?"

There's really something in there.

"The housekeeper mother, did you come here to ask for sin?" Sheng Xiuyi's voice sank, strangely cold.

Mother Luo listened, she was scared in her heart, she didn't think much about it, and hurriedly said: "No, Shiziye!" In the morning, the fifth lady came, scolded the eldest grandmother, said that the matter of the twelfth lady, would remember the eldest grandmother, and was pushed back by the eldest grandmother, and left in anger, without finishing the words. In the afternoon, I called Yang's mother to pass the word! ”

Sheng Xiuyi heard that the fifth lady came to the door in person to scold Dongyi, and his steps were sluggish. In the cloudy moonlight, I couldn't see his expression clearly, and I only felt that his breath was cold at this moment.

"What's the word?" Sheng Xiuyi asked again.

Luo's mother felt that Dongyi's words would not be hidden from Sheng Xiuyi, and she told Sheng Xiuyi for Dongyi that it was not in the way, so she told Sheng Xiuyi that the old lady of the Xue family wanted to set the Chen family's marriage for Miss Twelve, and the fifth lady looked down on the status of the Chen family, and thought about telling Miss Twelve to the third master who had been knighted, etc., all of them told Sheng Xiuyi 1510.

The two little maids followed from afar with bright corner lamps, and Mother Luo and Sheng Xiuyi walked back to the Jingshi Courtyard.

When I arrived at the gate of Jingshi Courtyard, Luo's mother had finished speaking.

A big red lantern hung at the door, reflecting Sheng Xiuyi's expressionless face, but it was a little cold.

As soon as they reached the door, they heard the child crying.

Sheng Xiuyi was startled and rushed into the courtyard quickly.

Dong Ying had already gotten out of bed, wearing only a thin shirt, and hugged Sheng Lecheng, who was crying miserably, in the warm pavilion.

Sheng Lecheng was wrapped in a brocade quilt, and one foot was still exposed.

A basin of water was placed in the warm pavilion, and the nurse and a few maids knelt on the ground, and Rose and Orange stood uneasily. Seeing Sheng Xiuyi and Luo's mother come in, Rose and Orange Red hurriedly saluted Sheng Xiuyi.

The two couldn't help but look anxious.

Sheng Xiuyi looked at Dong Yuan, who was dressed thinly, stepped forward to take Sheng Lecheng, wrapped the child in a brocade quilt, held it in his arms, and said to Dong Yuan: "What's wrong?" How did you get out of bed? ”

The nurse's body trembled with fear.

The child kept crying, and there were droplets of water in his hair, as if he had just been picked up from a basin of water.

Dongyu was so sad by the child's crying that tears poured out involuntarily, and said, "I was choked by water." They bathed Brother Cheng'er, their hands were unsteady and they choked the child! ”

Seeing this, Luo's mother wanted to persuade Dongyu not to cry, and she was worried about the child.

Sheng Xiuyi carried the child back to the inner room.

Dong Yu hurriedly followed.

He entered the inner room, still holding the child, and pointed to the rose in the maids who followed up: "Go and talk to the little maid in the outer courtyard, and call the doctor to come quickly!" The voice was unusually stern, and the expression on his face was serious and fierce, vaguely like the appearance of Sheng Changhou.

Dong Yu was slightly stunned.

She had the impression that Sheng Xiuyi was very gentle, and it was the first time she had seen him like this. This thought flashed through him, and his mind was soon occupied by the child again.

Rose said yes busily, took the two little maids to follow the way, and ran out quickly.

The child was still crying, and Sheng Xiuyi thought about holding him and shaking him to stop crying.

Dong Yu hurriedly stepped forward and pulled his arm, and said anxiously: "You can't shake him!" He's only a little bit, his skull doesn't grow strong, and if you shake him, he'll be dizzy! ”

Sheng Xiuyi had never held such a child before, so he didn't understand it very well. His two former sons, who were under the age of one, were persuaded not to let him hug him. When he heard Dongyu's words, he hurriedly didn't dare to move his arm and held the child firmly in his arms.

Then he said softly to Dongyu: "Go to the bed and lie down." You are still in confinement and can't go to the ground. ”

Dong Yu wanted to say something, Sheng Xiuyi said again: "I'm not here?" Go and lie down, I'll take care of Brother Cheng. ”

Dong Ying had to take off her shoes and go to bed.

Sheng Xiuyi was afraid that she would be worried, so he carried Sheng Lecheng to her bedside.

It may be that the uncomfortable energy has passed, or it may be that he is tired of crying, the child gradually stopped crying, and looked at Sheng Xiuyi with a pair of wet eyes. Sheng Xiuyi only felt that his heart was about to melt, and his heart was incredibly soft.

He breathed a sigh of relief.

The child's crying stopped, not only Sheng Xiuyi, but everyone in the courtyard breathed a sigh of relief.

Luo's mother asked the little maid to bring water to Dongyu and the child to wipe their faces.

Orange Hong served Sheng Lecheng to dry his little face, and Luo's mother served Dongying. While serving Dong Yu's face, she whispered, "Grandma, don't cry anymore"

The head of the east jaw. She didn't want to cry either.

But when the child cried like this, she couldn't control her tears, and her heart was about to break.

made a fuss, and finally alarmed Mrs. Sheng.

When she rushed over with a group of maids, Sheng Lecheng was already asleep. Sheng Xiuyi kept holding him and sat beside Dongyi's bed.

Mrs. Sheng saw that the child was asleep, as if she was out of the way, and chanted Amitabha Buddha repeatedly.

"Every child is born, there are hurdles. After this hurdle, I will be healthy and blessed in the future. Mrs. Sheng saw that Sheng Xiuyi and Dong Yu were still worried, so she smiled and comforted them. After thinking about it, he said, "In the future, let the people in the courtyard not call the third young master, but call Brother Cheng." Cheap screaming, so that you can feed. ”

Higashi-dori Road is.

Mother Luo ordered to go down, so that everyone remembered, and in the future, they must not call the third young master, but call Brother Cheng.

When I got busy, I forgot what to do with the nurse and the little maid who choked the child by mistake.
