Peony glanced at Mother Lin: "Mom, go and see if the walnut is ready." ”

Mother Lin led the others to retreat, and Peony told Mother Li what Jiang Changyang said: "He has heard about this matter, but he has no chance to see that thing." However, he told his cousin and sister-in-law that they don't have to worry, it's just a seal and a minion, if they have a clear heart, they can't turn the sky upside down. ”

Mother Li made a grateful expression just right: "Hearing you say this, our young lady will definitely be able to sleep." Otherwise, she has not been able to eat and sleep well these days. The partial-born son is a stubborn and strong person, and he is only willing to carry it on his own back when he encounters something, and the young lady asks two more words and says that she is heavy, and she doesn't want to cào these hearts. In fact, husband and wife are one, how can they not have a heart? Madame, do you think that's the case? ”

"My cousin is quite stubborn. But he also cares about his cousin. Peony understood what Li Ma ** meant, or Wu Jiuniang's meaning, and hoped that he would not tell Li Jing to know, otherwise Li Xun would not spare Wu Jiuniang, and the husband and wife would inevitably lose harmony, so he understood at the moment.

Mother Li saw that Peony did not express her displeasure, and her smile became brighter and brighter, because she saw that Mother Lin also sent Hu Tao in, so she didn't delay any longer, got up and said goodbye and left.

When the donkey cart arrived at Li's house, Li's mother walked into the middle door, and Bishui followed her: "Mom is finally here, and she has already asked people to go to the door to see it three or four times." ”

Mother Li nodded, not saying much, only speeding up her pace. When I arrived in the courtyard, I saw Wu Jiuniang sitting under the porch and taking care of a ten-zhang curtain, and the golden chrysanthemum petals were inclined down from the branches, layer upon layer, like a golden water curtain. More and more printed nineteen mothers and ten fingers are delicate, and people are like chrysanthemums. Mrs. Cui sat on the side holding a cup of tea, with a smile on her lips, and kept reminding her: "Although it is good to move more, don't be tired." ”

"It's okay, I'm sitting." Hearing the sound, Nineteen Niang raised her eyes and looked at Mother Li: "Are you back?" ”

Mother Li hurriedly stepped forward to salute and say goodbye, and Mrs. Cui's face showed a hint of anxiety: "Why did you come back?" But she refuses to see you for some reason? She always felt in her heart that the people Peony hated the most were probably her and Nineteen Niang, who refused to help, and it was reasonable to deliberately make things difficult for the people sent by the Li family.

Mother Li hurriedly said: "I saw it, but I went early, and I was embarrassed to enter the door, so I waited outside for a while, and saw General Jiang go out, so I let people pass it on." In fact, this is her selfishness again, she went early and saw Jiang Changyang's door with her own eyes, so when Peony replied, it would be very easy to clear whether Peony was lying or perfunctory.

Mrs. Cui breathed a sigh of relief: "What do you say?" ”

Mother Li repeated the words and handed over the walnuts, Wu Jiuniang looked at the basket of big and thin-skinned walnuts and was silent, secretly wondering what Jiang Changyang meant.

Mrs. Cui was a little angry: "Don't worry? A clear conscience? Isn't that the same as not saying it? There is nothing substantive about it. Sure enough, it was the wild jī on the branches, and when he changed into a phoenix, he looked down on people. Why did you forget when the He family begged them in the first place? No, at the beginning, he didn't even have to ask for it, Li Xun was automatically sent to the door to try his best to help. It's like this now.

Seeing this, Wu Jiuniang knew that she had a knot in her heart for peonies, and she always liked to think about the narrow and bad things related to peonies, so she smiled slightly: "It's much better than I imagined." The cousin-in-law of the Jiang family is a person who is in love. Although Jiang Changyang refused to stand on their side, he still gave two pieces of news, one is that the things are not in his hands, and the other is that as long as he has a clear conscience, there will be no big problems. So what does it mean to have a clear conscience? It is an indirect reminder that if you don't go overboard, nothing will happen. Even if it's very difficult now, as long as you are careful, grit your teeth and get through it. She looked at Mrs. Cui with a smile and said in a consultative tone: "It's better to tell your father this quickly, right?" ”

Mrs. Cui believed that this daughter-in-law from a famous family must have a farther vision than herself, and she must be better than her, so she agreed unconditionally at the moment: "Just look at it." ”

Wu Jiuniang found a trusted servant and asked her to send the news to Li Yuan immediately, but she didn't tell Li Xun.

Mrs. Cui wanted to ask her why she didn't tell Li Xun, why did she let Li Xun keep busy, but when she saw Wu Jiuniang's confident appearance, she swallowed the words again. Wu Jiuniang must have done better than her. Since Wu Jiuniang married in, it is obvious that their family is more trusted, and she is more respected when she goes out, and Li Xun has not done anything out of the ordinary as she feared, even Li Yuan often praises Wu Jiuniang. She set her eyes on Wu Jiuniang's lower abdomen, this must be a son. Wu Jiuniang must have a few more children, so that the people of the Li family will become more and more prosperous.

In the evening, Li Yuan's father and son returned home, Li Xun glanced at Wu Jiuniang when he entered the house, and then saluted Mrs. Cui and went back to the room. Seeing this, Wu Jiuniang hurriedly sued her in-laws and followed Li Xun back to the room. Mrs. Cui was busy and considerately asked someone to bring the food to the young couple to the room to eat.

Wu Jiuniang personally washed her hands and gave Li Xun a hot wine, and said with a smile: "Are you hungry?" This wine is five years of Wucheng Ruoxia, do you taste it? ”

Li Xun pulled her to sit down: "Nineteen Niang, we are husband and wife, besides, you are inconvenient, so you don't have to be so polite, you sit down, I have something to say to you." ”

Wu Jiuniang saw that his expression was very serious and serious, and he didn't smile at all, so she felt a little máomáo in her heart, with a smile on her face, she sat down next to him affectionately, and said with a smile: "What do you have to say to the concubine?" ”

Li Xun said seriously: "Nineteen Niang, thank you for always being so kind and tolerant to me and the people in my family, and you have never disliked that our family is from a businessman, and my relatives and friends are all businessmen." Since the time he got married, he has been working non-stop, almost doing everything he can to do. ”

Wu Jiuniang's smile stiffened, she lowered her eyes, and said lightly: "These are the responsibilities that should be fulfilled as a **." Since I am married to you, I am connected to you by blood, and we should advance and retreat together. Saying this to the concubine made the concubine feel ashamed and aggrieved. ”

Li Xun looked at her: "I know you are wronged, although I have tried my best not to let you be wronged, but I still let you be wronged, I am sorry." "There are some things that can't be forgotten, but he has tried very hard to forget, always reminding himself that Nineteen Niang is his wife, and he must cherish her and love her.

Wu Jiuniang said softly: "You don't have to say sorry. I don't feel wronged for this, I feel wronged because you thanked me. I haven't thanked you because what you do is what you should do. "Who doesn't have a past? She cares more about the future than the past. If one day, she gets all of him, it will be even more exciting than getting the ultimate glory and wealth in the world.

Li Xun was stunned, then held her hand and said in a low voice: "In this way, it is my fault, and I apologize to you." He paused slightly, "Nineteen Niang, I know that you are for my good and for everyone's good, but I hope you will not get involved in this matter in the future, just take care of your body with peace of mind and wait for childbirth." ”

Wu Jiuniang's face turned pale for a moment, she raised her eyes to look at Li Xun, and tried to pull her hand out of his palm: "What do you mean?" ”

Li Xun held her hand tightly: "What I mean is that you are pregnant with our child now, and you have to work hard for these things, of course, this is because I have no ability, so you are tired." ”

Was he unwilling to accept her help, or was it something else? How did he know this? Wu Jiuniang's eyes suddenly became sour, she bit her lip tightly and looked at Li Xun with tears in her eyes.

Li Xun seemed to know what she was thinking, and said softly: "When you asked people to send a letter to my father, I happened to be discussing at my father's place, so I accidentally learned about this matter. ”

Wu Jiuniang said angrily: "So what? Is it wrong for a wife to share her husband's worries? I don't tell you because I don't want you to think nonsense. But you're ......"

Li Xun gently and forcefully interrupted her words: "Nineteen Niang, you are a good wife, I am fortunate to be able to marry you for three lifetimes, and I will not fail you in this life." However, I want you to understand one thing, human affection is mutual, there is never a one-sided interaction, and even if there is, such an interaction will not last long. After one or two decades of ups and downs, the He family does not owe us, and the relationship between our two families is not as simple as outsiders think. This matter is not simply who owes someone a favor, and it can be refreshing to ask for a personal favor. I once lobbied Jiang Changyang, but he refused, so don't try again in the future, and embarrass others again. He can give you this answer only because he is kind, and if he is a bad person and gives you a wrong answer, it will kill someone. Do you understand? I don't want you to do something like my mother one day. ”

Since Wu Jiuniang entered the door, it was the first time she had heard Li Xun say such heavy words to her, from the first day he knew her, he had always been soft-spoken and considerate, but today he said this about her. Her self-esteem couldn't accept it, and tears welled up in her eyes. She just wanted to help him as much as she could, and the education she received since she was a child was how to maximize the use of the people and feelings around her to achieve her goals, but she also knew that she could do the kind of thing that Mrs. Cui had done? He also looked down on her too much.

She sobbed, "How can I not tell the difference between black and white? It was because I knew who they were, so I dared to ask him. If they don't, I won't force them to do it. You don't know much about me. Since it has been stormy for 20 years, I ask, is it wrong to ask for help?
