Chapter 12: Miraculous
After laughing, Zhicheng became more and more confused about the second brother Zhiyuan's family, I don't know how the second brother calculated, is his niece Shu Yao Jiaohan? Or did she get the benefits of her second sister-in-law's Guerjia? I really don't understand.
Zhiyuan and Zhihao glanced at each other, they had a bright and secret fight in the past, but after the Zhiyuan family returned to Beijing, the two half-brothers reached a rare tacit understanding, and they couldn't let Zhiyuan inherit the title. On the eve of Zhiyuan's return to Beijing, Zhicheng hosted a banquet for his fourth brother Zhihao alone, and there were many hints in the conversation, if Zhihao refused to support Zhicheng, Zhicheng would never let him be a wall grass or benefit from a fisherman.
Due to the early death of the eldest brother of Changfang, only one daughter was left, and the sister-in-law Nala kept the festival for the eldest brother, and raised her daughter Shuyu quietly, silent and honest, and did not touch anything.
Although Zhiyuan is the second son, he is now the nominal eldest son, and it is an unwritten rule of the Xungui family to establish the eldest son without a son-in-law. The old ancestor of the Duke's Palace, that is, the suave and peerless Zhiyuan and others Marfa, once joked that whoever has the ability will inherit the throne, just because of this sentence, after he died of sudden illness, many concubines in the Duke's Mansion had many titles, and if it wasn't for the old lady who walked through the path of the Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang at that time, the Duke's Mansion would have been completely defeated.
Among the three brothers in the Duke's Mansion, Zhiyuan's official position is the highest, but Zhiyuan is not happy with the old lady, and he sent him out of Beijing early, but instead raised the third brother Zhicheng as a son-in-law, and the old lady personally raised the eldest son Shujie and the second daughter Shu Jing of the third brother, it seems that the future title will definitely fall into the hands of Zhicheng.
Zhihao has not seen his second brother Zhiyuan for more than ten years, and he has no good relationship, there is an old lady to support Zhicheng, of course Zhihao will choose to stand on Zhicheng's side, and he will wait until Zhicheng inherits the knighthood, and get more benefits, so the two brothers reached a secret alliance.
Zhicheng said: "Second brother, should we go to see Ama first?" "Zhicheng doesn't know, if he delays any longer, look at the second brother's family, will he be suffocated, how did their family get together? Just like normal people, the only second sister-in-law Guerjia who looks at the normal point is still a sharp-tongued person, and she can't be offended, and Shuyi is automatically ignored by them.
Zhicheng They care about the Shuxuan of Xiao Sanyuan, if it is high school in the autumn of the next year, it will be the most beneficial to Zhiyuan Chengjue, and Zhicheng has to beware of Changsun Shuxuan.
Zhiyuan nodded, took his wife Guerjia, led the children with different temperaments to visit Amashu Mulujiha first, along the bluestone path, through the cloister, Zhiyuan walked more and more frightened, the Duke's Mansion was magnificent, compared with the memory of the Duke's Mansion has changed greatly, it can be seen that the money in the house is very rich, and the subordinates who meet are full of new clothes, not to mention wearing gold and silver, but the head of the girl's mother-in-law is inserted with gold and silver hairpins, and the dress is not comparable to ordinary small households, Zhong Mingding eats rich and luxurious people.
"Ama didn't live in Eijudo?"
The plaque of Rongshoutang was written and rewarded by the current Empress Dowager herself, and it was the residence of the owner of the Duke's Palace.
"The second brother doesn't know, Ama went away a long time ago, and I don't hide it from the second brother, the coffin is ready, I'm afraid that Amma has a case..."
Hearing Zhicheng's serious words, Zhiyuan was shocked: "Ama is now bone?"
"Although Ama can't get up and doesn't speak neatly, the doctor said that a good life will be able to support it for a few more years." Zhicheng can't get the regret, if Amma died at the beginning of the year, the title would have fallen on him a long time ago, "Actually, Amma was able to survive the most dangerous time, thanks to his niece,"
"Niece?" Zhiyuan was puzzled, his niece Li Zhiqing and daughter Shu Yao were the same age, "She is filial piety in front of Amma's bed?" ”
"It's not just filial piety in front of the bed, the niece got a thousand-year-old ginseng, Ama all pointed to the thousand-year-old ginseng to continue his life, and then the niece went to the temple to pray for Amma, and crossed the mountains and mountains to return to the filial piety spring, filial piety touched the genius to let Ama survive the most dangerous pass, the niece did not untie the clothes to serve Amma, confident and thoughtful, hard-working, so that we are ashamed to be sons."
Zhicheng told Zhiyuan's family about his niece Li Zhiqing serving and taking care of Shu Mulu Jiha, and when he said that he was emotional, Zhicheng also wiped the corners of his eyes, "The most rare thing is that the niece is not well-known, only saying that it is the filial piety that the granddaughter should do, and no one in the house is allowed to mention it, but how can Amma, who is helpless, survive life and death, hide from his relatives?" The niece's filial piety soon spread throughout the capital, after the empress dowager heard about it, she personally summoned her niece and rewarded her with a bucket of pearls, a box of lake pens, praising the niece Hui quality Lan Xin, filial piety and cleverness, the niece is used to talking, to please the empress dowager, sometimes the empress dowager will let the father-in-law pass the will to receive the niece into the palace to talk, who is not envious of our Duke's Mansion out of the talented and beautiful, filial piety touched the day of the girl? “
Guerjia tightened Shu Yao's collar, her niece Li Zhiqing is a smart one, she has the advantage of face, and the queen mother has to be pleased, and she is the granddaughter of the old lady's relatives, who dares to say a word about her in the Duke's Palace? Looking at Zhicheng Zhihao, he values his niece.
"Eniang, I'm not cold." Shu Yao smiled innocently, "Third uncle, thousand-year-old ginseng is not easy to get, and it was left by my uncle to my cousin?" ”
Zhicheng nodded and said, "My niece said the same thing." ”
Shu Yao's eyes were shining, and she praised sincerely: "Uncle is so generous, so silver, a real thousand-year-old ginseng is hard to find, my uncle was reluctant to use it before he died, and left it to his cousin, which is a heart of love for his daughter." ”
Shu Yao's childish children's voice, soft, seems to admire and admire her cousin, Zhicheng Zhihao was present at the time, and his niece Li Zhiqing took out the ginseng every year to save Amma's life, and they couldn't think about it when the situation was in crisis, and then the niece was liked by the Queen Mother, it was the glory of the entire Duke's Palace, and the whole mansion was patronized and rejoiced, how could I think that the niece who was less than nine years old could take out the thousand-year-old ginseng?
After Shu Yao's unconscious words, Zhicheng and they couldn't help but suspect that the brother-in-law's family who died early was lined with thousand-year-old ginseng? When my brother-in-law was seriously ill, I didn't use ginseng to leave it to my niece? Are there still people in the world who don't value life? Xu is brother-in-law's illness thousand-year-old ginseng is useless.
"Third brother, you haven't told the foolish brother how Ama moved out of Rongshoutang?"
Zhiyuan doesn't care about his niece, he doesn't like his niece's style, he cares more about why Amajiha lives in a remote and secluded place here, hanging in the courtyard, and it is very quiet inside, unlike the wealth and luxury of the Duke's Palace, Ama is forgotten?
"Second brother, don't underestimate this courtyard, it was arranged by my niece for Ama personally, and the water under the ground is a hot spring, which will help Ama recuperate."
Zhicheng described the structure of this yard in detail, Shu Yao tightened her brows for the first time, the design of this yard is very modern, using simple solar energy, Shu Yao, as a photovoltaic engineer, will do it more perfectly, could it be that cousin Li Zhiqing is also a person who travels through time and space?
