The third cousin and the third brother-in-law jumped up in shock when they heard this.

"Quick, call the coachman!" The third brother-in-law ordered the third cousin with a panicked expression.

"Oh!" The third cousin responded, hurriedly walked out, and walked halfway, only then came back to her senses, and shouted to her personal mother: "Please Yuwei come in, their wife is about to give birth." You rush to Shijia Hutong, talk to Zheng Sanjia, and let him prepare. Then he called the big maid in, "Aunt Jiu is about to give birth, you send someone to tell Zheng San, let him hurry up and prepare the carriage and horses, and then tell the little maid to carry a few thick futons in the carriage, you hurry up and make a cup of brown sugar water and come in." ”

The close-fitting mother and the big girl left in response.

The third cousin hurriedly came over and helped Fu Tingyun: "Go and lie down on my kang for a while." ”

Fu Tingyun curled up and shook his head.

The third cousin is a person who has come over, knowing that she is in labor, and she is not reluctant, she raised her eyes and saw her husband standing there in a daze, and secretly laughed and scolded "stupid goose" in her heart, and said: "You go and call a few rough mothers-in-law to lower the door panel, and wait until you can carry the ninth sister into the carriage." He also instructed him, "I'll take a look at it later, and ask Xianggong to help take care of the spring cakes and Lantern Festival." ”

The third brother-in-law made up his mind, and he couldn't help but be secretly ashamed, he was not as good as a woman and child when he encountered something! Knowing that it was inconvenient for him to stay here in this situation, thinking that Zhao Ling was not at home, and that there was a man present who also had a backbone, he said, "I'll go over after settling the child", and walked out of the hall quickly.

Yuwei got the letter and rushed over, and the pain passed.

Fu Tingyun breathed a sigh of relief, holding Yuwei's hand and straightened up.

Several women had already carried the door panels covered with thick bedding and were waiting outside.

The third cousin and Yuwei helped Fu Tingyun to lie down and lifted her into the carriage.

Zheng San raised his whip and rushed towards Shijia Hutong, he was afraid that he would be facing Fu Tingyun, he didn't dare to run fast, and he was afraid that Fu Tingyun would have three long and two short, so he was so anxious that his hands holding the whip trembled.

The third cousin was careful and brought a pot of hot water when she got into the carriage. Yuwei and her third cousin took turns twisting the handkerchief to help Fu Tingyun wipe the sweat from her forehead.

finally arrived at Shijia Hutong, and the house was already brightly lit.

The mother of the Shen family had already arrived, and the Wen Po, who had moved in a few days earlier, had already cooked Zheng Sanniang in the kitchen, and stepped forward to help Fu Tingyun out of the carriage.

Fu Tingyun sweated profusely and asked Youyou and Brother Xi: "······ Don't alarm them. ”

Zheng Sanniang said calmly: "Don't worry, Mrs., the Tong family has already rested with the eldest lady and the eldest young master." ”

Fu Tingyun nodded and entered the inner room.

After a period of panic, she gave birth to a son in Yinshi, weighing six pounds and six taels.

Zhao Ling was overjoyed and named his second son "Yun".

However, by the time his letter was delivered to Kyoto, Yun Ge'er had already passed the full moon ceremony.

The third cousin was walking in the house with Brother Yun in her arms, and when she heard that Zhao Ling had named the child, she smiled and smiled at Brother Yun, who was sleeping: "First year of junior high school, did you hear it, your father named you." From today on, your name will be Zhao Yun. Then he asked Zhao Linglai: "How is the battle over there?" ”

Brother Yun was born in early May, and Fu Tingyun named him the first child.

"It is said that those Miao people rebelled, but it was because the taxes were too heavy." She carefully folded Zhao Ling's letter as it was and put it in the big red gold box next to her, "He only killed the leader, appeased everyone, and invited the emperor to reformulate taxes and set up monuments in each county as evidence. ”

The third cousin couldn't help but clapp: "Amitabha, this is good, this is good!" ”

Fu Tingyun said with a smile: "It's still the emperor's grace - if the emperor hadn't agreed to reformulate the tax, how could the Miao Rebellion be pacified so quickly." ”

"Anyway, this is the fortune of the ninth brother-in-law." The third cousin smiled, "Otherwise, why would the ninth brother-in-law be pacified as soon as he left?" ”

Fu Tingyun hoped that Zhao Ling would always have such luck. Then I remembered that the third brother-in-law came, so I asked about the third brother-in-law: "Isn't there any news yet?" ”

The third cousin said with a smile: "The county orders of several remote small counties have been decided, and the experience of the Imperial History and General Administration of the Metropolitan Procuratorate is still empty, not to mention that the officials are in the middle of the matter?" Your brother-in-law said that no news is good news. Let's not be in a hurry. ”

Since Fu Tingyun gave birth to Brother Yun, the third cousin almost goes out early and returns late every day. First, she felt that Fu Tingyun had no elders here, she was a sister, and when Fu Tingyun needed to recuperate, she should take care of her. Second, I feel very guilty. always felt that if it weren't for their family's affairs, Fu Tingyun wouldn't have had a seizure two or three days in advance.

The matter of the third brother-in-law has not been followed since that day, and their husband and wife are very anxious. But Fu Tingyun was in confinement, and Mr. had also been there, and they had done everything they should have done, but the third brother-in-law was afraid that Fu Tingyun would be worried and anxious, so he repeatedly told the third cousin: "If the ninth sister asks, you can tell her that there is me and the seventh brother-in-law watching, so that she should not worry." Things in the temple are not done overnight. ”

That's why the third cousin said this.

Fu Tingyun felt that this matter had dragged on for too long.

She couldn't help frowning: "If I am the person in charge of the ministry, I should be staring at it so much, I should cut through the mess quickly." The longer it drags on, the more people will know that there will be vacancies in the affairs of the ministry, and the more people will come to the door. There is only one position, and if you promise you, you will offend him. It's better to decide early, and say, 'If you're late, you can push it clean...... she said, and said solemnly, "No, you have to go to Tanzhe Temple again." ”

"No way!" The third cousin resolutely refused, "You give me a good rest." If you are in a hurry, wait for your brother-in-law to come over, you can ask him personally, and it is impossible to get tired of driving and riding again. It's June, and you're sweating all over when you sit, not to mention that you've just come out of confinement. At the end, there was a hint of pleading in his tone.

Fu Tingyun was embarrassed.

The third cousin found a feather fan to fan her.

Pearl walked in and said, "Madam, the third aunt is here." ”

Fu Tingyun looked at the third cousin.

The third cousin had no choice but to say: "Then please invite the third aunt to the hall of the inner courtyard to talk!" ”

Pearl looked at Fu Tingyun and saw her nodding, so she smiled and retreated, and invited the third brother-in-law to the hall.

The three of them had a meeting of the main and secondary times, and they had just served tea, and before they could speak, Kou Er came in and said, "Aunt Seventh is here." ”

Fu Tingyun hurriedly instructed Kou'er to welcome people to the hall.

Chloe answered.

After a while, hurried footsteps sounded outside.

The third brother-in-law was about to make fun of the seventh brother-in-law for a few words, and as soon as the curtain moved, the seventh brother-in-law actually strode in with the curtain himself.

"I went to the third brother-in-law, and I heard from the third brother-in-law's family that you are all in Shijia Hutong, so I rushed over again." The corners of his eyes and eyebrows were filled with joy..." I just came from the side of the Terracotta Hutong, Shen Ge Lao Zhishi, Mo Ge Lao was dismissed for the matter of the Tai Warehouse, the emperor ordered Qian Donglin, Chen Danting entered the cabinet, Qian Donglin replaced Shen Ge Lao Wenyuan Pavilion Scholar, and the Ministry of Officials Shangshu Chen Danting replaced Mo Ge Lao, appointed as a Wenhuadian University Scholar, and the Ministry of Works. ”

The six yamen are in the alley.

The third brother-in-law stood up with an "ah" and said excitedly: "Is this true? ”

Fu Tingyun and the third cousin couldn't help but stand up and asked why they came back.

The seventh brother-in-law smiled: "I can't tell you the specifics." I went to Terracotta Hutong early this morning to ask about the third brother-in-law, but I didn't expect to hear such news. He added, "The news came from the Ministry of Officials, it is said that after the court this morning, Qian Donglin and Chen Danting have entered the palace to thank him." An official document will be posted at noon at the latest. ”

The third brother-in-law couldn't sit still, and pulled the seventh brother-in-law: "Let's go, let's take a look!" ”

In this way, Yu Ge Lao's wish was disappointed!

Fu Tingyun was both happy and worried.

I am happy that the Yu family has finally kicked the iron plate, and I am worried that the matter of the third brother-in-law has changed because of this.

She hurriedly ordered Baoshu to go with her.

Baoshu is one of the small servants sent by Zhao Ling from Xuanfu.

There is also one called Tsukikawa.

Bao Shu is only eight or nine years old, and his eyes are bright and flexible, and he looks like a smart child at first glance.

He followed Ah Sen's rules, but after more than a month, there was no fault in dealing with the errands.

The third cousin asked Fu Tingyun: "Who are Qian Donglin and Chen Danting?" ”

Fu Tingyun shook his head: "I don't know either." ”

"It seems that we have to wait for your brother-in-law to come back and ask him!" The third cousin muttered, but she wondered anxiously whether her husband's affairs would be complicated by this.

The two sisters were thinking about their own thoughts, but they were thinking about one thing.

For a moment, the room was quiet, and there was no sound.

※※※※※

Compared with the quiet Shijia Hutong, Jiadao Street is like a storm crashing on the shore at this time.

Yu Ge Lao picked up the inkstone in his hand several times and wanted to smash it out, but when he saw his son standing in front of him worriedly, he forcibly put the inkstone down.

Yu Jingxiu never dreamed that it would be such a result, and when he saw that his father was uncomfortable, he couldn't help but be indignant: "Dad, how can there be such a thing? The head of the Hanlin Academy, the young James scholar, the Guozi priest wine, and other people who have never been in charge of the party actually entered the cabinet directly, and the master of the academy also served as the first assistant, isn't this a big joke and a joke in the world? Dad, don't we have any other way? ”

"Something else?" Old Yu Ge smiled bitterly, looking at his son's eyes gloomy and lacking, "Xiang Gong dances the sword, and his ambition is Pei Gong." We all thought that the emperor was going to attack Shen Ge Lao, but who knew that the emperor pointed his sword at Mo Yingbo...... What else do you think, what else can we do with such an emperor? Whether Qian Donglin is the head of the Hanlin Academy, or a young James, the emperor probably won't care, what he wants is just an obedient first assistant......"

Yu Jingxiu couldn't help but be silent.

Yu Ge Lao looked at Qiang and laughed loudly a few times, and said, "Okay, Depu, don't be discouraged." I'm better off if I didn't make the first assistant, you just happened to go to the ministry. As he spoke, he patted him on the shoulder encouragingly and said, "Good job." Daddy is waiting for the day when you will be added to the rank and enter the cabinet. This makes me happier than being the first assistant myself. ”
