Chapter 145: Good news

What a mess.

Xiao Dong thought about what King An said, and finally came to the conclusion that Yao Qingyuan must be extraordinarily beautiful, and he may not have inherited one-tenth of one-two.

It's okay, it's too beautiful, and I can't get it if I want to be ordinary and stable.

It is often said that mediocrity is a blessing.

Although there is a self-consolation element in this statement, it is not very productive. But it's true that people who are not mediocre often live too tired.

The rain stopped, the sun flickered, and the day began to heat up. The sixth princess was bored, and rushed to the door with the child in her arms to eat and drink. Xiao Dong couldn't put it down when he saw Luo Cong, a fat boy who didn't like to cry, loved to laugh, who was willing to hug him, giggled and laughed endlessly, revealing a toothless little mouth, spitting and spitting bubbles.

"My sister-in-law said that this is going to grow teeth, and the saliva has not been finished all day."

The two put the child on the kang and watched from the other. Luo Cong tried to turn over, but unfortunately he was too fat, and secondly, he couldn't understand the essentials, so he just circled in place. He was wearing a green satin gown, and the tie was rubbed open, revealing the belly pocket of the carp playing lotus with a red silk and white background, like a fat frog.

"Ah, by the way, I went to inquire about it for you again last time." The sixth princess came over and said, "Speaking of which, that Miss Yin is really a disaster. It is one time to be divorced, and it is another time to have a cousin with an eccentric temperament who is not married. Recently, I heard that the family that quit before seems to still have to be entangled. ”

"What's going on? Retreat and retreat...... Xiao Dong thought for a while: "Is there any etiquette, tokens and the like that have not been delivered?" ”

The sixth princess smiled: "It's not like this, it's that the son of that family is not willing to marry another, saying that this matter is not a gentleman's doing, and he has to hire another girl from the Yin family." ”

"Ouch, then this is the son surnamed Wu, right? He is still affectionate and righteous. ”

"That's a." The sixth princess rolled her eyes rudely: "He can't be his old lady's master." His mother doesn't agree, can he still ask a matchmaker to hire him himself? ”

"Who are you listening to?"

"Hey, you don't hear about it until you go out, just ask outside." The sixth princess stroked her son's little hand, smacked her lips and said, "If you want to say that this Yin girl, her appearance is still good, but it's a pity." ”

Xiao Dong also nodded: "It's a pity." ”

However, Zhao Lu didn't mention her again, maybe he didn't care so much in his heart. It may just be a momentary favor, and it will be put aside when it is busy.

"Ah, yes. Your cousin doesn't plan to get married yet? ”

She didn't seem to care about the silence anymore, as calm as if she were asking for news from a stranger.

In the past, she was very impulsive to Shen Jing. She didn't know anything about him, and she hadn't spoken a few words at all. really made her and Shen Jing become close, and most of the two of them are also a pair of resentful couples.

Speaking of Shen Jinglai, Xiao Dong's mood fell: "He...... I'm also talking about relatives. ”

"Really? Which family's daughter is set? ”

Xiao Dong remembered what Shen Fang said last time, and became more and more unable to lift his spirits: "It's also from Hedong, surnamed Li." ”

"Oh, I know, the Li clan in Hedong is also a big family." The sixth princess is far from the stupid girl she used to be, and when she talks about this, she said: "It is said that the daughters of the Li family are extremely strict in their family education, and they all eat the female commandments as three meals. Tsk, if Shen Jing, a merry and talented man, marries a wooden wife, I don't know what it will look like. ”

Cong'er screamed, pulling the sleeve of the sixth princess and sending it to her mouth.

"Yo, I'm probably hungry."

The sixth princess called the nurse to come in and take Cong'er to breastfeed, and then pulled Xiaodong's sleeve and said: "The Needlework Bureau has changed a group of people, and the craftsmanship is getting rougher and rougher, and it is really better than a stubble." You're fine, I won't be able to wear a few of my outfits this summer. ”

"It's not something that the inner government does, it's the craft of the people in the house. Next time, don't ask them to do it, just take the ingredients and come back, and do it in your own house, both physically and mentally. ”

The sixth princess pushed her with a smile: "You should be like you, there are only a few people in our house." In my room, there are few skillful craftsmen, and now that such a little ancestor has been added, it is not enough to serve him every day, how can I care about this, and wear it indiscriminately. She touched her face: "It's not as good as before, you can know it by looking in the mirror." ”

The nurse fed the child and coaxed him to sleep. When the sixth princess saw her son, she smiled, and she didn't even feel bored when she sat next to her for a long time. She didn't always wear a face of fat powder like before, probably because she was afraid of rubbing the child's face. A face looks moist and firm, radiant, Xiao Dong looks much more pleasing to the eye than she used to be, how can she say it so badly.

"You should give birth to one as soon as possible." The sixth princess bit her ear with her: "I looked at you thin before, but now it's almost time." ”

"Hmm...... I know. ”

In fact, Xiao Dong's decoction has been stopped for a month - but there is no movement yet.

How can you move so quickly?

"There's one more thing for you. If you want anything fresh in your shop, remember to keep it for me. Boxing and birthday gifts every year...... It's not a trivial task. The sixth princess whispered: "Always lose." ”

"Isn't the lady lady going to stick to you?"

"I've spilled all the water, and she has to keep it for her son if she has a private room." Although the sixth princess said this, she was not really displeased.

In this world, a woman relies on her mother's family and her husband's family. Not only does Concubine Song Shufei have to rely on her son's support, but the sixth princess will have to rely on this younger brother more in the future. Those women who have no one in their mother's house, can they speak loudly in their mother-in-law's house?

However, the younger brother is still young, and there are too many children in the palace who are not big. The sixth princess is really worried that one day someone in the palace will carry a funeral belt to report the news-if she has a brother.

Xiao Dong took out the gift for Cong'er, small clothes and shoes, large and small, several bodies. It is all fine silk and fine cotton, and the cloth head and thread feet are all wrapped, and it can't grind the child's tender skin and flesh at all. The sixth princess held her clothes and thanked her repeatedly: "It's still thoughtful, it's much better than sending some kind of goods, it's all useless." ”

Xiao Dong pursed his lips and smiled: "There is still one for you, you can go back and cut it yourself." ”

The sixth princess flipped through the materials, her eyes narrowed with a smile, and she said, "If you want to send me sincerely, open your treasury and let me pick and choose." People say that the dowry private house of the county lord of Anwangfu is the first in the capital, and you can't be so stingy when you want to send things. ”

Xiao Dong was angry and funny, picked up the cloth ruler and stood on the edge of the kang: "Don't worry, I won't knock you, I'll pump your son's ass." You say, left or right first? ”

Sending the six princesses away, Xiao Dong remembered Miss Yin's matter, but he was still not at ease.

Even if she can't become her sister-in-law and get acquainted, if she can help her, Xiaodong is willing to help her.

Sometimes it's not that hard to help people, just say one more kind word.

Xiao Dong sent Qin Lie to inquire, and the people Qin Lie knew knew a lot more than Xiao Dong: "I know, I've seen it." ”

"You've seen it?"

Xiao Dong came to the spirit and patted the position beside him. Qin Lie smiled and bowed, and said, "Mrs. Xie will sit down." Only then did he sit down beside Xiao Dong: "It's been several years, by the way, the prince also knows him." ”

"My brother knows him too?" The capital is really small enough.

"Hmm. I saw it at a poetry meeting, and later I thought he was a good person - indeed not bad, and he was not rigid in what he said and did. If Miss Yin marries him, it can be regarded as a good marriage. ”

"You know what." Xiao Dong threw him a roll of his eyes: "Whether the future is good or not, you can't just look at how the Wu Gongzi is." ”

Qin Lie humbly asked: "What about Madame's opinion?" ”

"You say to yourself, how much effort do you work at home and how much effort do you work outside? When you are at home, how much time are you eating, drinking, and sleeping? But our women's family is different, we are at home all day long, and we are so idle that we are panicked, and it is strange if we don't make trouble. If Wu Gongzi's mother doesn't like this daughter-in-law, don't say that she can't enter the door, or if she enters, she faces a mean mother-in-law all day long, and that day is called a living sin. ”

The population of King An's Mansion is simple, and Qin Lie's own family is even more so. He doesn't know the open and secret battles between mothers-in-law and sisters-in-law in the big family. If a mother-in-law doesn't like her daughter-in-law, she can come up with a hundred and eleven ways to frustrate her. Not to mention far away, this thing is not uncommon in the clan. "That's ......" Qin Lie nodded and shook his head: "Yes, that's someone else's business, we can't take care of it." ”

"yes."

Xiao Dong was a little stunned.

Qin Lie pondered for a while, but felt that he was very undeserved. Xiao Dong's words are not to complain that he is always running around and has too little time at home. Before getting married, I would carve something by myself from time to time, but now after becoming a parent, I have nothing to worry about, and I haven't done those meticulous work for a long time. I feel a little ashamed when I think about it - when my daughter-in-law marries her hand, she puts a heart in her stomach. You don't have to think about how to meet and how to please every day. He used to laugh at others, digging out his heart to get good things, and when he got his hands, he threw them into the box to be ashes, and he didn't cherish them anymore. As a result, he is now immediately following the same path as those people.

In July, it was so hot that people were dizzy, and Qin Lie used this reason to go to the shop less. accompanied Xiaodong to draw patterns, renovated their new house, and found several rare lotus flowers to plant back. The two of them lived in the palace, and used their home as a place of leisure. After the trimming is done, please ask King An to enjoy the lotus flowers. King An praised it and said, "It's just too exquisite, and it will be troublesome to take care of in the future." ”

Qin Lie said: "It's not troublesome. Looking at the splendid eyes, they are actually all flowers and plants. After this summer, it won't look so good. ”

King An smiled and said, "You two are so idle, go back and clean up the garden of the palace." ”

Xiao Dong agreed, and he also wanted to make a military order, and he wanted to ask King An for a reward. It's a pity that there is no ambition - ambition is not rewarded.

When he came back from the new house, Xiaodong was sick and unenergetic, thinking that he was tired and suffering from heat stroke.

But after the imperial doctor came to check the pulse, he smiled and said congratulations: "The county lord is happy, it's been almost two months." ”

Uh, Xiaodong has a little bun on his shoulder......

It's been a long time coming.

Tomorrow will be added
