The old princess snorted lightly.

The princess of the county looked at Jiang and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, the affairs in the house will bother you in the future." You hold on for a few days, and then I'll be brought back when I'm well. ”

Jiang glanced at the princess of the county and did not answer.

Although the old princess said that she would not let the princess of the county take over, she did not say that she would let the Jiang family take over.

There was silence in the room.

The princess of the county was psychologically comfortable at this time. Originally, she pulled Jiang out because she was afraid that the old princess would refuse to let her go because there was no one in the house to take care of things. Now that the old princess said what she just said, she naturally couldn't pull her face and let her take care of the house. And the old princess was noncommittal to let the Jiang family's housekeeper, and the princess felt that she had finally raised her eyebrows.

The old princess no longer values her as a daughter-in-law, and she is better than the Jiang family in the eyes of the old princess. Good and bad, are all compared.

The princess of the county was about to say a few more words and secretly stab the Jiang family, but Sanniang, who had been sitting without speaking, put down the tea bowl in her hand and said to the old princess: "Grandmother, since the princess of the county is not feeling well, then this inner courtyard is still managed by the granddaughter-in-law for the time being, and the granddaughter-in-law will be handed back when the princess of the county is well." The granddaughter-in-law has been in good health recently, and even morning sickness is rare, and now that the first three months have passed, the fetus has stabilized. ”

The old princess frowned when she heard this, waved her hand and was about to speak, but the princess swept her eyes to Sanniang's abdomen, covered her mouth and smiled: "This child in your belly is so well-behaved, I was tossed when I was pregnant with An'er, and I smelled meat at the table when I was eating. However, when she was pregnant with Whelan, she didn't react, and her appetite was very good. You're not ...... in this baby."

Although she didn't finish speaking, everyone knew that she meant that Sanniang was pregnant with a female fetus in her belly.

The princess glanced at her and said, "Didn't you say she was sick?" Why are there so many words? It's good that the child is healthy, where there are so many famous halls! ”

The princess of the county smiled when she heard this.

The old princess means that the child is healthy, and it doesn't matter if the boy or girl is okay? That's too partial, isn't it?

Sanniang looked at the princess of the county and smiled slightly, although it was just a polite smile, the princess felt that there was some provocation in that smile, and couldn't help but "hum".

As soon as she spoke, the old princess frowned and looked at her, so frightened that she immediately coughed a few times to cover up. But she was even more aggrieved to death, and said fiercely in her heart that this family would not be able to be divided, where is there still her place in this house!

Sanniang said: "Grandmother, this housekeeper ...... thing"

Before she could finish her story this time, a voice next to her interrupted, "Mother, let me try." ”

It turned out to be Jiang who spoke.

Everyone in the room looked at her, and even the old princess was a little surprised in her eyes.

Sanniang was not surprised when she heard this, she had just deliberately taken the matter on herself, and she had already expected that the old princess would not agree, and all she wanted was to push the Jiang family out.

However, Sanniang said: "Grandmother can't work, mother, you are used to being quiet again...... I'll take care of it. I'm really fine. ”

Jiang shook his head, but his eyes were always staring at the old princess sitting on it, his eyes were calm but persistent.

The old princess looked at her for a while, frowned and looked at Sanniang's stomach, and finally nodded: "Since you propose to take care of it, then you can take care of it." "The princess of the county doesn't do anything, and only the Jiang family in the house can stand up and support the façade.

Jiang Shi got up and blessed when he heard this, and sat down again after answering.

"I'm afraid you're not familiar with the affairs of this inner courtyard, I'll ask Mama Zhang to help you then." The old princess said lightly.

Jiang Shi thanked him in a low voice.

In this way, the stewardship of King Zhuang's Mansion fell to the Jiang family, who had never asked about the world.

The princess of the county pursed her lips on the side, although she brought it up, it really made the Jiang family's housekeeper feel a little sour at this time.

"It's almost time, let's pass the meal." The old princess instructed Mama Zhang behind her.

The princess of the county was unwell, and the old princess didn't instruct her.

This Chinese New Year's Eve dinner is also eaten by these masters, and it is really not possible to talk about the excitement or anything, and there is a little less atmosphere for the New Year.

When the meal was finished, everyone sat and drank tea for a while, and the old princess said, "We won't celebrate the New Year together today, and you will all go back to your own yard later." "There are a room full of sick people and pregnant women, so it's naturally not okay to stay up late.

Everybody responded.

After sitting for a while, everyone said a few words without being salty or light, and then dispersed.

When everyone was gone, the old princess returned to her bedroom, sat on the kang and closed her eyes to recuperate, while asking Mama Zhang, who knelt in front of her and massaged her legs and feet: "What do you mean by her this time?" ”

Mama Zhang carefully kneaded the old princess according to the vein, and said: "The slave doesn't know either, I don't look like the princess of the county." ”

The old princess opened her eyes and looked at a certain point in the void, as if she was thinking.

Mama Zhang kneaded for a while, then got up and went to the outhouse to tell the maid to fetch hot water to come in and soak the old princess's feet, and when she came back, she saw that the old princess was still there, so she said: "You don't have to think too much, you are still sitting here on the left and right, and there is no chaos in the house." What others want to set off is beyond their means. ”

The old princess came back to her senses and sighed: "I'm not afraid of what will happen to her, I just have bad legs and feet, my body is not bad, and there are no other major problems." The doctor said that with my physical condition, I can still live to be seventy or eighty. I can still watch my great-grandchildren marry their daughters-in-law. ”

Mama Zhang smiled when she heard this: "That's what you said, so what do you want to do so much?" Relax. ”

The old princess closed her eyes again, and when Mama Zhang thought she didn't want to talk anymore, she was about to go to see if the water was coming, but the old princess said again: "Butler Jiang, you can help watch a little." She didn't become a country, so I'm afraid she will have to be busy for a while. Those who are in charge and have the second daughter-in-law left behind, there will be no less things to stumble her on. How can I say that she is also Shao'er's mother, and she is going to be a grandmother again, give her some face. ”

Mama Zhang was busy, thought about it and said, "It's just that the slave and maid can't follow the eldest lady all the time to watch...... There is a Zhuang Mama by the young lady's side, who also came out of the palace before, and the housekeeper is a good hand, and she also made a lot of efforts when the young lady was in charge of the house before. Do you want Mama Zhuang to help watch some too? With Mama Zhuang here, it will be easier to wait for the young lady to take over in the future. ”

The old princess pondered for a while: "That's fine, but Mama Zhuang is the person next to Sanniang after all, you go and ask first." If Sanniang can't be without her by her side, then that's fine, you can assign more things in my yard and work harder. ”

Mama Zhang smiled: "This is a slave's business, not tired." ”

The maid brought in the hot water, and the old princess sat up straight. Mama Zhang waited for her to take off a pair of white cashmere socks, helped her feet to soak in hot water, and massaged the acupuncture points on the soles of her feet in the water.

"Speaking of which, the slave didn't expect that the eldest lady would take the initiative to beg you to be a housekeeper." Mama Zhang said while bowing her head to wash the feet of the old princess.

The old princess said lightly: "There is nothing unexpected, women are strong for mothers." If she doesn't stand up at this time, her daughter-in-law will suffer. The first child, there can't be anything bad. ”

Mama Zhang responded with a smile and didn't say more.

*********************************************************************

After Sanniang Xuanshao and the Jiang family came out of the old princess's courtyard, they went back together.

In the evening, the snow stopped, but the temperature was even lower. Sanniang saw that Jiang's clothes were not thick, so she asked Bai Zhi to hold her hand stove.

Jiang was about to refuse to let her hold it herself, but when she saw Xuan Shao holding Sanniang's hand in her hand, she swallowed the words and took the hand stove handed by Bai Zhi.

Along the way, the ground, tree branches and all kinds of buildings in the mansion are covered with a layer of snow, under the lantern light of the mansion, the palace is very bright, although the ground will inevitably be a little slippery, but because Xuan Shao is by his side, Sanniang walks very at ease every step.

Sanniang and Xuanshao's yard arrived first, Sanniang asked Xuanshao to send Jiang, and Jiang was not at ease and said that she wanted the husband and wife to go in, and she went back by herself. In the end, Sanniang said that she and Xuan Shao accompanied Jiang to go back and come back.

Although Jiang didn't want Sanniang to walk more, Sanniang said that she wanted to walk more, which was good for her health, and Jiang could only accept their kindness.

The group accompanied Jiang to Guan Ju Courtyard.

"Go back, I've passed under the porch, it's brightly lit, and I'm not afraid of anything." When they arrived at the gate of Guan Ju Courtyard, Jiang asked the two to go back.

Sanniang and Xuanshao no longer insisted, and Sanniang said: "Mother, I will work hard for you in the future." "Now in private, Sanniang doesn't call Jiang's mother anymore, she calls her mother.

Jiang knew that what Sanniang was talking about letting her take care of the house, shook his head and said: "Mother is not hard, you take care of yourself, don't think too much about anything else, although it is useless for your mother, you can't let the child suffer." As he spoke, he took Butterfly's hand and went in.

Sanniang and Xuan Shao watched her walk into the main room before walking back.

Xuan Shao stretched out his hand from Sanniang's back and put it on her waist, half-hugged and half-hugged her, Sanniang's almost entire body was in Xuan Shao's arms, Sanniang struggled a few times and couldn't break free, and he was left to him, no matter how thick-skinned she was, she was a little blushing at this time. The maids all looked down at their feet.

Halfway through, the air suddenly lit up, followed by colorful, fire trees and silver flowers.

"It's fireworks." Sanniang stopped, pulled Xuan Shao's sleeve, tilted her head and smiled.

Xuan Shao also stopped and looked up twice, but then his eyes stayed on Sanniang's face.

Sanniang raised her head slightly, her eyes smiled like a crescent, and a series of colors of red, green, yellow, and purple changed in her crystal pupils, which were extremely bright.

Sanniang had seen enough, turned her head and wanted to talk to Xuan Shao, but it happened to crash into his inky jade-like eyes, the two looked at each other like this, forgot to speak for a while, and did not move, a round of purple fireworks exploded into a fan shape in the sky above the heads of the two, then turned red, then purple......

Time seems to be about to freeze.

Until a gust of wind blew from the side, blowing away the snow on the branches, falling down, and falling on Sanniang's face, the cool feeling made her suddenly come back to her senses, and she couldn't help coughing lightly and lowered her head.

"Xianggong, will you go back?"

The smile in Xuan Shao's eyes was even stronger, and he led her to the courtyard of the two.

"You like fireworks?"

Sanniang smiled: "It's good to watch from afar, you don't have to get it back." The gunpowder and sulfur in it smell too much now, and it's not good. ”

Xuan Shao didn't say anything more.

The two went back to the yard, finished washing, and lay down on the south kang. I don't know which one is still setting off fireworks outside, Sanniang hugged Xuan Shao's waist and leaned on his chest, the fireworks were still lively, and the two of them were also plated with layers of colorful colors through cellophane.

"Xianggong, a year is about to pass." The corners of Sanniang's mouth curled, and she looked up with a smile.

"Hmm."

"I hope that in my lifetime, I can celebrate the New Year with my husband every year."

Xuan Shao's eyebrows moved, and he looked down at Sanniang: "Okay." ”

Maybe the color of the fireworks was too gentle, or maybe the atmosphere was just right, and the two didn't know who took the initiative, so they kissed together. Originally, this kiss was gentle, that is, the intimacy of each other. But after all, they are all at the age of blood and strength, and they can't help but change their taste when they kiss and kiss.

Sanniang put her hand under the hem of Xuan Shao's clothes and stroked his abdominal muscles through his middle coat.

Xuan Shao's figure is very good, his posture looks tall, he doesn't seem to be strong, but his body is fleshy, Sanniang once saw his abdominal muscles, they are not abrupt, but they are just the right perfection.

Xuan Shao kept looking at her, he really didn't know how to describe his feelings. If it is comfortable, Sanniang's movements are not skilled, and sometimes it hurts him, but he is shocked in his heart, thinking that she has done this for him, looking at her slightly frowning and serious, just looking at her expression makes him can't help but want to release. Even though he wanted to push her away.

However, Sanniang was stubborn, and Xuan Shao's body was already involuntarily soft, so in the end he still ejaculated under her movements.

Afterwards, Xuan Shao hugged Sanniang in his arms, although Sanniang was still a little uncomfortable because of her unfamiliar technology, but she looked at him with bright eyes and smiled, although the roots of her ears were red.

"Xianggong, I'm sorry, I'm not very good, isn't it uncomfortable?"

Xuan Shao rested his chin on her forehead: "No." "The voice is deep and deep, and it is a unique tone after having just experienced lust.

Sanniang was annoyed by his voice, and the ghost came to his ear and whispered, "I'll pay attention next time." ”

Xuan Shao's brain "boomed", and then he also blushed.

In the middle of the sound, Sanniang suddenly held back a smile and said innocently: "Xianggong, will you blame me for reading the "Jade Room Cheats" that you hid in the dark behind the bookshelf?" ”

Xuan Shao: "......"

********************************************************************

This Chinese New Year's Eve passed in the ambiguous pink atmosphere of the two, and it seems to have strangely led to the direction of Chinese New Year's Eve for many, many years to come, of course, this is a later story.

Early in the morning of the second day, the first day of the Lunar New Year.

The old princess and the princess of the county want to enter the palace, Sanniang and Xuanshao can stay at home, but Sanniang is pregnant now, and she is really not interested in entering the palace to toss herself, so she is too happy.

However, she and Xuan Shao still got up early and went to ask the old princess to say goodbye to her before she entered the palace.

After that, the husband and wife went to Jiang's courtyard and had breakfast with her.

After returning to their own yard, the husband and wife began to play the piano and chess to entertain themselves, the friendship between the two is deeper now, as long as there is a chance to be in one place, they don't want to separate, sometimes just a look, you can understand the meaning of the other party, as long as Xuan Shao is by her side, Sanniang feels down-to-earth, and it is easy to show a smile from the heart.

On the second day of the Lunar New Year, Xuan Shao took Sanniang back to Wang's house to pay New Year's greetings.

This is the first time Sanniang went out after being diagnosed with pregnancy, and Jiang put three layers of thick felt blankets in the carriage prepared by Sanniang, and the carriage was not the one she used on weekdays, but an ebony canopy carriage used by the old princess.

Not only was the carriage large and spacious, it wouldn't wobbly even on dirt roads.

Sanniang didn't feel any discomfort on the way to Wang's house, and Xuan Shao also breathed a sigh of relief.

Along the way, I heard the sound of passers-by greeting each other everywhere, and the new couplets and statues of the God of Wealth were pasted on the closed facades on both sides of the road, and the atmosphere of the New Year was much stronger than that in the Zhuangwang Mansion.

When she arrived at Wang's house in Mao'er Eye Hutong, as soon as the carriage arrived at the second gate, Sanniang saw Xue standing at the second gate waiting for her.

"Mother." Sanniang was very happy to step forward to greet Xue, and Xue immediately held her up.

"I thought you wouldn't be back today, but I just heard my mother-in-law say that your carriage has arrived at Front Street. Cold or not? Go inside, it's warm. Xue pinched Sanniang's hand hidden under the thick cloak, and saw that her hand was still warm, so he was relieved.

Xuan Shao also came forward to salute the Xue family.

"Sister—" An excited shout came from behind.

Sanniang turned around and saw Wang Jing running towards them, Sanniang smiled and stood in place waiting for him.

Wang Jing ran over and saw that the Xue family was also busy saluting her, and then shouted Xuan Shao, and then looked at Sanniang and grinned: "I just wanted to go out to pick you up, but I didn't want you to come first." ”

"Come into the house and talk about it." Xue smiled and welcomed a few people in.

Sanniang and Xue walked in front, Wang Jing and Xuan Shao walked behind, and the two were talking softly about some martial arts things.

When he arrived at the main house, Wang Jing frowned at Sanniang and said, "Sister, why don't you get fat?" I've heard people say that people who are pregnant with children will be fat, are you not eating well? ”

Xuan Shao also glanced at Sanniang's face, and frowned.

Sanniang glared at Wang Jing: "If I am fat, it means that the food is wasted and all used to grow meat." It's best now, because neither my baby nor I are hungry! ”

Wang Jing touched his head, a little suspicious: "Is that so?" ”

"Of course, what am I lying to you? If you don't believe it, you ask your mother. ”

Wang Jing looked at Xue.

Xue Shi couldn't help laughing, thought about it, and said, "I heard Mama say that there are also people who can't eat fat, and the last time I went to see Sanniang, I saw that she ate a lot." ”

Wang Jing was relieved.

After that, Wang Dong sent someone to ask Xuan Shao to go to the outer courtyard to speak, and Xuan Shao and Wang Jing went out.

Sanniang laughed with the Xue family, until Qiniang woke up and clamored to find the Xue family.

Sanniang saw Qi Niang's cute and clever appearance, she didn't like it, thinking about the child in her belly, she had a lot more expectations.

Three years later, I went to see Mama Zhao, Mama Zhao was in good health, and she couldn't help crying when she saw Sanniang, but she was happy for her. Mama Zhao took out the small clothes and shoes she had made for Sanniang before, and in less than a month, she had already made a bag of small clothes.

"Mama, don't do this in the future, the maids around me are very good at needlework. You're too old for your eyes. In the future, I still have to rely on you to help me watch the child, how can I do it if my eyes are not good. ”

Mama Zhao burst into tears when she heard this: "Where can Mama still show you the child." ”

Sanniang held Mama Zhao's hand and said, "Of course, if you don't show me the child, who will show me, you promised me before." Wait, I'll pick you up when the baby is born. ”

Although Mama Zhao was happy in her heart, she was still hesitant: "Now that you are married, where can you do whatever you want?" Mama is very good in the Wang family, and Madame treats me very well. ”

Sanniang knew that Mama Zhao still wanted to live with her in her heart, and this old man dedicated his life to Zhao and her.

Sanniang interrupted with a smile: "I naturally know that my mother treats you very well, but I don't want to leave you." ”

Mama Zhao scolded with tears in her eyes: "Little Miss, you are so old, why are you still like a child when you see that you are about to become a mother?" ”

Sanniang said as a matter of course: "In Mama's place, I will always be a child." ”

Mama Zhao looked at her lovingly, smiling so much that her eyes narrowed into a slit.

Coming out of Mama Zhao's place, Sanniang told Xue that she was going to take Mama Zhao in the future. Naturally, the Xue family would not disagree, but just let her handle the affairs of her in-law's side.

On this day, Erniang did not come back, and Sanniang was happy not to see her, and talked to Xue for a day.

The Xue family now has a charter, she is a smart woman after all, and she also has some henchmen and maids around her. Moreover, the Wang family now has a simple population, Wang Dong's aunts have already been cleaned up, and the daughters have all been married, and Wang Jing in the outer courtyard doesn't need to worry too much about the Xue family, the Xue family now has a woman who is full of everything. Life was very comfortable.

Sanniang likes a woman like Xue, smart, kind, pure-minded, and easy to be content, so seeing that her life is going well now, she is really happy for her.

Xuan Shao and Sanniang stayed at Wang's house until dinner before going back, there was no snow today, and the snow on the road outside was also swept away by each family.

Sanniang opened the curtain of the car, looked at the warm lights outside, felt the peace and tranquility in the fireworks in the world, and the corners of her mouth involuntarily raised.

"Look at what, so happy?" Xuan Shao hugged Sanniang's waist from behind and asked gently.

Sanniang handed over the weight of her body to Xuan Shao, covered her hands on Xuan Shao's hands, turned her head and smiled at him: "I don't know, I just want to laugh, what about you?" Why are you laughing? ”

Xuan Shao's smiling eyes stared at Sanniang's eyes and did not speak.

Both of them understood the meaning of each other's smiles: the years are quiet, and you are by my side.

*******************************************************************

On the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, hundreds of officials go to court, the government opens the government, and the people open the market.

Probably because of the six-day holiday, the officials have not yet recovered from the joy of the New Year, so on the first day of the new year, the court was quite quiet, and only reported a few small things that were not big or small.

One of these trivial things is that the king of Zhuang County asked to move out of the palace of King Zhuang and build his own county palace, the reason is very serious, that is, it is not in accordance with the etiquette system for him to live in the prince's palace as a county king.

This kind of thing is really a trivial matter, and as a county king, it is normal to have your own mansion. And this should have been done a few years ago, because it has dragged on for various reasons. Therefore, when King Zhuang Jun put it forward, no one raised any objections.

However, the emperor did not give an answer on the spot. This is a family matter, and the emperor wants to ask the queen mother what she means, and he also wants to ask Prince Zhuang what she means.

The matter of King Zhuangjun's proposal to divide the palace in the court was transmitted back to King Zhuang's mansion before noon.

Sanniang got the news at about the same time as the old princess, Sanniang only smiled, there was no reaction, what to do.

The old princess was stunned for a long time after knowing about it, and finally she was so angry that she smashed a tea bowl on the spot.

"Tell them to get out! The farther you go, the better! ”

Mama Zhang hurriedly stepped forward to persuade the old princess, and gave the maid a look and asked them to clean up the ground quickly: "Don't be angry, presumably the prince of the county has his reasons for doing this." ”

"Huh, reason? What is the reason? There is a big reason why you can't come and talk to me, who is a mother, and just hand the emperor a fold without making a sound? Could it be that I can still tie them up and tie them up in this house? After all these years, I have raised ...... for nothing."

"Princess—" Mama Zhang immediately interrupted the old princess's words.

The old princess closed her eyes, but she was still a little angry after all: "I said how she let go of the things in the house!" It turned out that this calculation had been made a long time ago. Just keep me in the dark, well, very good! ”

Mama Zhang sent the maids out: "If the princess doesn't want them to be separated, she doesn't agree." The emperor didn't come down on the spot, he should just want to hear what you mean, as long as you don't let go, it's useless to talk about who tosses it. ”

The old princess waved her hand a little disheartened: "What am I keeping them for?" The heart is no longer in this house, and staying will only add to the chaos. Let's go, let's go, go early and clean. ”

Mama Zhang finally sighed and stopped talking.

At noon, the palace really sent a grandmother, and it was still the spring grandmother next to the queen mother.

Mama Chun sent some medicinal materials to the Queen Mother, some for the old princess and some for Sanniang.

After that, the old princess withdrew from the crowd and talked to Mama Chun in the house for a long time.

In the afternoon of the same day, the decree of the palace came down.
