There is a hot spring in front of the Yanxie where Song Miaohua lives. In winter, the lake near the spring will emit a burst of shisha, which is why it is called the Linyan Pavilion.

Corridors have been built everywhere in Linyan Pavilion, and many stone pots have been buried to plant water lilies, even in the cold winter, there are still delicate lilac colors.

Gu Lan walked through the corridor with her two girls, and saw her mother standing next to the lake, bursts of hookah floating, she looked at the water quietly, and even the girls around her reported to her that she didn't look back.

Gu Lan looked at the faint moon hanging in the sky, and felt uneasy in his heart. She quickened her pace and walked to Song Miaohua's side, took her hand and asked her to retreat some, although it was warm to be shrouded in hookah, but when her clothes were wet, it was very cold when the wind blew.

"Mother......" Gu Lan sat on the pestle brought by the girl and said to her, "Aren't you in a hurry, I heard the girl below say that Gu Jinchao wants to take a concubine for his father, and his father agrees!" She suddenly thought, "The ...... that Gu Jinchao brought back that day It's that little concubine! ”

Song Miaohua sighed and said, "I know. ”

When Gu Dezhao walked out of Jing'an House, she knew it. Later, the return office, the attendant office, and the stable all sent people to report to her, the bride price, the girl, and the courtyard, these things Gu Jinchao had already instructed his subordinates to prepare.

She was very surprised at the time, she was still waiting to see Gu Jinchao's jokes, who knows...... Gu Dezhao actually agreed to take a concubine!

After being surprised, she was uneasy, she walked along the corridor several times and did not calm down, just as anxious as Gu Lan. You know, isn't what she is relying on now is Gu Dezhao's favor, although she is the daughter of Shaoqing of Taichang Temple, but there are as many as four daughters in their family, if she falls out of favor in the Gu family, it will not be easy in the Song family!

She originally thought that she would be able to conceive a child after more than a year, but her stomach did not move at all, and she begged for a lot of medicine but did not improve. When she gave birth to Sister Lan, she had a difficult birth, and she didn't take good care of the root of the disease, which made it difficult to get pregnant again.

She has now found a good remedy, and she has been recuperating for three months, and she thought she could have a chance......

Why did the lord agree to take a concubine?

After Aunt Song turned around a few times, she couldn't wait to rush into Jing'an Ju to see what was going on, but what kind of stunning beauty caused Gu Dezhao to accept her recklessly. But now Jing'an Ju is guarded by a nursing home, and no one can go in. This group of nurses was brought by the Ji family from the Ji family, and they are loyal to the Ji family.

She became more and more impatient, and finally calmed down. The calmer she is, the more beneficial it will be to her, and now it is useless to say anything, so she can only wait for the master to take this concubine. Song Miaohua stood in front of the cloister and looked at the water lilies, and she had already paid attention to it.

The Ji family has been fighting with her for more than ten years, but they can't compete with her, and now with a concubine who came out of nowhere, can they beat her?

Gu Lan also knew that she couldn't intervene in this matter, and it was useless for her to be anxious, so she stopped urging and helped her mother warm her cold hands. She suddenly remembered that whenever things were critical, her mother's hands were cold, but the more she did, the calmer she became.

"I'll go see your father...... You don't have to worry about this, just take care of your brother. Aunt Song instructed her.

Gu Lan was still a little worried: "Are you going now?" ”

Song Miaohua's tone was cold: "What's the hurry, sleep first, it's not too late to go tomorrow morning." ”

The next day, Song Miaohua looked at the faint black blue under her eyes in the makeup mirror, and instructed Qiaowei to put on makeup: "Don't use rouge and gouache, help me comb my hair in a bun, and then use a pair of blue arc hostas to curl my hair." ”

When she went to serve Gu Dezhao's breakfast, she specially asked about taking a concubine.

"I heard Mother Zhao say, master, you want to enter another room sister...... she smiled lightly and gave Gu Dezhao a dish, "Why didn't you tell me first, I don't know if the eldest lady does some things, or the steward came to me......"

Gu Dezhao lowered his head and drank porridge, and said lightly: "It's just a one-room aunt, just leave it to Sister Chao'er, she will always have to be fed by the Lord when she marries in the future." I don't tell you because you work day and night for the affairs of your house, lest you be too tired. ”

"That's fine, I haven't had any children in the house for eight years, and the concubine is also wrong......"

Gu Dezhao looked up and saw Song Miaohua's face that was still like a flower and jade, and the years were like a shuttle, but he was particularly fond of beauties, but it was a pity that he was pale blue at the moment, but he was sad because of his affairs? Or is it too much work for the family?

He couldn't help but hold Song Miaohua's hand and comforted her: "Look at you these days, people are a lot haggard. Pinxiu, don't worry, I remember how many years you've worked hard. Even if you have another concubine, how can you compare to you......"

Song Miaohua continued: "I am happy that you also have to think about the heir. It's just that when I think of your mentor Lord Lin is about to be promoted, do you need to wait a little longer for the matter of taking a concubine......

Gu Dezhao shook his head: "It's impossible to say about the court, the saint has been unwell recently, and he hasn't been in the morning court for several days." Government affairs are supervised by Lord Zhang and Lord Zhan Shi Chen of the Zhan Mansion. This matter of taking a concubine is also okay, but everything is simple and unassuming. ”

Song Miaohua's heart tightened, and Gu Dezhao really wouldn't let go.

She smiled and stopped mentioning the matter of the concubine, and asked curiously: "Then how can Lord Zhan Shi Chen of the Zhan Mansion be in charge of the political affairs of the court, isn't he assisting the prince?" ”

Gu Dezhao smiled: "The prince is only eleven this year, about the same size as Jinrong, and he is cowardly and timid, how can this be." said that the prince should supervise it, but in fact, the real power is in the hands of Lord Chen, and Lord Chen is indeed a capable person, and everything is handled in an orderly manner. Master Zhang values him the most, and I think that when the position of the elder of the pavilion becomes vacant, he is very likely to become the second assistant. ”

Aunt Song is a woman in the inner room, Gu Dezhao dared to tell her this, and she also knew that she didn't understand this, let alone say it.

…… Jin Chao was in Jing'anju, and several stewards of the outer courtyard and mothers in the inner courtyard surrounded her. She looked at what was broken and old, and asked them to write it down.

The decaying small pond of Jing'anju was filled in, and new holly, plum trees, and caryophyllus were planted, and the bluestone road was planted with wild goose red and poppy from the greenhouse, which was arranged with green and flowers. The Jin Dynasty also asked people to re-paste the eaves and dougongs with Qingbi, and re-colored the windows and columns with black paint, and replaced the room with a more delicate gold painting screen.

She also asked people to hold the Longquan bottle and the elephant kiln open bottle and put it in the hall, and ordered someone to cut down the red plum branches and insert them in the bottle.

"On the 25th, I cut out the red window paper and pasted it in Jing'anju," Jin Chao said to Xu's mother, "although it is not a ceremony to take a concubine, but it is also festive." ”

Tong's mother smiled: "Miss still feels sorry for Miss Luo, this quiet and peaceful house is decorated with flowers, you have bothered a lot." ”

Jin Chao just smiled, but she always felt that she was more selfish, and she never considered what Russell thought about taking a concubine. Because this matter cannot be chosen by Russell, or even by her.

But she is only a fifteen or sixteen little girl, and this is the only time she has been married. Even if you can't get married in a beautiful way, you must at least have a new house if you go once in the order of accepting the levy.

Ji was also worried that the Jin Dynasty would not be able to do this, and he had to ask her every day how she was preparing, and Miss Luo was okay. Jin Chao smiled and comforted her, but it was just a concubine, and she handled the wedding of the ten sons of the Chen family that year, and it was also orderly and did not fail.

On the twenty-fifth, a red soft sedan car was used to carry Russell from Qinglian Lane into the mansion. A few more tables of wine were set up, and the aunts, young ladies, stewards, and mothers with heads and faces were invited to eat and drink. The mother was carried out to take a look, and Jin Chao followed her all the way.

Seeing that spring is about to begin, the weather is a little warmer, and the faint sunlight shines on my mother's sick face, which looks very peaceful.

The father, dressed in an ochre-red robe, saw his mother come out and strode up to her: "...... You're so sick, what are you doing here? ”

Ji Shi smiled lightly and said, "The concubine just wants to come and see, there is a rare happy event in our house." ”

Gu Dezhao frowned, as if he wanted to say something. Jin Chao was afraid that he would say something bad casually, so he hurriedly said: "Mother has lived alone for a long time, but she just likes to be lively." He lowered his head and asked her, "Why don't we go back first?" ”

Ji Shi no longer looked at Gu Dezhao and nodded.

The plum blossoms in the Sky Garden have long been gone, but the locust trees are beginning to sprout. Today the weather is warm, and the ice on the eaves is melting. Ji's asked people to bring Xiao Liang over and personally guide his daughter's embroidery. Seeing the lifelike Crane Wanglan she embroidered, she was very happy: "It would be better if I could embroider the dark color with silver thread......

Jin Chao smiled bitterly, her current embroidery skills are incomparable to those of skilled embroiderers. Mother's needle girl red is only considered good among the boudoir women, but she can't be taught. However, for the sake of her mother's happiness, she specially embroidered a little poorly, so that her mother could give more guidance.

Ji Shi suddenly said: "Your father likes Hewanglan the most, saying that it is noble and elegant. In the past, most of the shoes and socks I embroidered for him were of this pattern. With a faint smile on the corner of her mouth, "Your Aunt Yun also likes it, but it doesn't look good to embroider it herself, when her child was about to be born, I embroidered several such baby objects for her, swaddling clothes, small pillows, small clothes, ......."

Jin Chao rarely heard his mother mention the past, and asked her, "How is Aunt Yun treating you?" ”

Ji nodded: "Aunt Yun has a peaceful temperament. She likes children, when you were born, she hugged you and couldn't put it down, and at night you cried endlessly, and she was the first to get up and coax you. I don't want to get up......"

Ji sighed a little again: "Now that I think about it, if it weren't for that girl, how could she ...... dead?"

Aunt Yun's death?

It was the first time she had heard her mother talk about it, Jin Chao looked up at her mother, but her mother no longer said Aunt Yun and continued to guide her embroidery.

When Aunt Yun died, Jin Chao was still at his grandmother's house and didn't know much about it. She just heard Xu's mother mention that Aunt Yun died of dystocia when she gave birth.
