Chapter 25: Ning Ruiwan
Zhuo Zhaojie came out of the bath, but saw that Ning Shaobi was not outside, so he asked Isli: "Where is the prince?" ”
Iseli said respectfully: "The prince sent someone to look for the prince of the world, as if there was something to discuss. ”
"Oh." Zhuo Zhaojie glanced at the copper leak in the corner of the house, at this time it was already the beginning of the year, although it was not a winter with short days and long nights, and the sky was already dark, she thought to herself that except for the day of the tea ceremony, the Marquis of Yongcheng had not looked for Ning Shaobi these days - even on the day when Zhuo Zhaojie returned to the 'door', this father-in-law used the excuse that he was going to go to court the next day, and sent someone to come over one day in advance to let them go back to the 'door' day without going over to ask for instructions and tell, and now he suddenly called Ning Shaobi over, is there something wrong?
She thought about it for a while, and then asked Ah Xing and Ah Li to come over and wring their long hair while waiting for Ning Shaobi.
I didn't want to wait until the middle of the sea, Ning Shaobi came back with the night 'dew', originally to go to the bath first, but saw that the inner room was lit up, and his heart moved, so he stepped in, and saw that the tent was half rolled and half hidden, and a lamp was lit in the tent, Zhuo Zhaojie was wearing a moon-white middle coat, leaning on the 'jade' pillow and looking at an idle book, although there was sleepiness between the 'looks', but when he noticed that he came in, his eyes lit up, Ning Shaobi's heart was warm, and he picked up the tent and said, "Why haven't you slept yet?" ”
"I'll be back when you come." Zhuo Zhaojie saw that he had returned, so he put aside the book that he had taken out to send Chenguang and smiled slightly.
Ning Shaobi said with a smile: "I'll tell you later, you wait first." He went out and called someone to fetch water, hurriedly bathed, and then returned to the inner room, and saw that Zhuo Zhaojie had already given way to the place outside the bed, so he went over to lie down, first hugged Zhuo Zhaojie's ears and temples and grinded for a while, and then said, "Father called me to talk about the big room." ”
Zhuo Zhaojie leaned on him and asked with a smile, "What's the matter?" ”
"Ou Shi wants Si Niang to leave, this matter has been mentioned a few times, this time we got married, Si Niang came back, Ou Shi Suo 'sex' detained her, and directly sent someone to Xu's house to talk about the divorce, or Si Niang from Ou's side of the little messenger 'girl' set out, today a father to grandmother, Si Niang is also in front of grandmother, when the father left, she followed out of the yard to ask her father." Ning Shaobi snorted and said, "In the end, it is my father's niece and nephew, and my father wanted to help when he heard her pitiful, so he called me to discuss." ”
"And leave?" Zhuo Zhaojie asked in surprise, "What do you want to leave?" Could it be that the Xu family is against the four...... Isn't it good for Siniang? ”
Ning Shaobi never called the person in the big house by his brother and sister, Zhuo Zhaojie naturally followed him, what he called himself.
I heard Ning Shaobi say: "This is not true, although Xu Huai's 'jade' is a little cowardly, but he has always treated Siniang well, but this person is from a poor background, his parents are just people in the village, and Siniang is a descendant, with Ou's watch, forgive him and don't have the courage to treat Siniang badly." ”
Zhuo Zhaojie said strangely: "Then how can the Duchess of Qiguo still want Siniang to leave?" "Although the cool atmosphere is open, it is not difficult for a 'girl' to remarry, especially a high-ranking 'door' and a noble 'daughter', which has never been worried about marrying, but in the end, the yuan match is more dignified and upright - not to mention the fact that it seems to be a cicada, the princess's niece and nephew', who doesn't say that she lost when she marries, but she doesn't see much of her husband's feelings after marriage.
Since Ning Ruiwan is in love and harmony with her husband, her remarried husband may not be able to treat her better than Xu Huai's 'jade', why did Ou Shi do this 'stick' to beat the mandarin ducks?
If Ning Ruiwan was not born by her, she might hate Ning Ruiwan's biological mother, or dislike Ning Ruiwan, and change her way to toss Ning Ruiwan. But Ning Ruiwan is obviously Ou's biological 'daughter', why can't Ou's biological 'daughter' get along with his biological 'daughter'?
Ning Shaobi said with a smile: "You didn't hear it clearly - this Xu Huai's 'jade' is okay, and it's not a big deal to be cowardly in 'temperament', but it's convenient for Siniang to be the master of the house after passing the 'door', it's just ...... His parents are just ordinary farmers, and the family property is only a dozen acres of land. ”
Zhuo Zhaojie was surprised: "With such a family background, how did Siniang marry in the first place?" ”
"It's not a talented and beautiful woman, I've seen too much of it." Ning Shaobi snorted and said, "Aren't there many talented and beautiful people in those scripts who have 'private' meetings and 'flower' gardens and the like?" Well, this kind of script, when my grandmother made someone search it out of Siniang, I flipped through two books, and the beginning was almost the same, and the talented man and the beautiful woman met by chance, and then they didn't forget each other, and then there was a caring 'girl' or mother-in-law who was not afraid of death came out to thread the needle and help the two secretly communicate with each other......"
Zhuo Zhaojie raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and said, "Could it be that Siniang and that Xu Huai 'jade' ......?"
"When I was in Qingqing, it is said that once it suddenly rained, and the maid 'girl' beside Siniang forgot to bring an umbrella, and it happened that Xu Huai's 'jade' passed by, so she lent her the umbrella." Ning Shaobi said casually, "As a result, she didn't know which book she was right in, and she felt that this was her destiny, waiting for Xu Huai's 'jade' to get the champion and her good ending as the champion lady - that's almost the case, she 'privately' and Xu Huai' 'jade' for about half a year, so that the grandmother next to her grandmother saw that something was wrong, and told her grandmother 'privately', and her grandmother called her to interrogate her, and she was very angry - but she was single-mindedly determined that it was not that Xu Huai at that time. Jade's not married, originally according to Ou's meaning, was to kill the Xu Huai's 'jade', and give Siniang another 'door' to the right person's family, in the end she was looking for death and life, grandmother and Ou's heart softened, so she had to let her marry this Xu Huai's 'jade'. ”
He said hesitantly, "It's also a shame that my grandmother is here, no one dares to say anything, in fact, 'privately' seeing her hurry out of the cabinet and marrying so low, most of them can guess a few points, Ou also scolded his grandmother for this matter, and he couldn't raise his head in front of his grandmother for more than half a year...... Although Siniang is seriously married to Xu Huai's 'jade', but in fact, Xu Huai's 'jade' has never had the opportunity to climb the big 'gate' of the Qiguo Mansion over the years, Ou Shi always thinks that he is not good, and seduces the simple Siniang, the purpose is to climb the Qiguo Mansion, but let me say, if Siniang is not 'dazzled' by those words, Xu Huai's 'jade' A poor scholar can still force her? ”
Zhuo Zhaojie groaned: "So that's the case...... So Siniang doesn't want to leave until now? ”
Ning Shaobi said: "This is natural, in fact, Ou Shi thinks that Si Niang is simple and does not think it is wrong, although Xu Huai 'jade' has repeatedly failed the exam in recent years, but Si Niang has a dowry, and she does not worry about eating and drinking, she is not a person who has to be a noble 'woman', as long as her husband is satisfied with her love, she really doesn't want to toss, before Ou Shi called her back several times to let her remarry, she ignored it, lived for a few days and ran back to her husband's house, this time I think Ou Shi made up his mind, and he detained her. ”
"Since my father wants to help, what should I do?" Zhuo Zhaojie asked.
Ning Shaobi snorted: "Actually, I don't want to 'interfere', in the end, Siniang is the 'girl' over there in the big house, what does it matter to us?" Ou Shi looked down on her 'daughter-in-law' who failed the exam and wanted to change it, it was her business. My father was also a little hesitant when I said this, worried that he would quarrel with Qi Guogong over this matter, and then provoke his grandmother to ''......"
Zhuo Zhaojie smiled and said, "I'll listen to you left and right." ”
When Ning Shaobi heard this, she bowed her head and kissed her neck, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, even if you have to 'intervene', I will do it crisply and crisply, and I will never bother you." ”
"What bothering me?" Zhuo Zhaojie glanced at him and said with a smile, "Anyway, now our relationship with the big house is like this, and my grandmother is here, what does it make if there is one more hatred and one less hate?" ”
Ning Shaobi thought for a while and said with a smile: "That's what I said." He bowed his head and made love with her for a while, and replied, "Fang just said one more thing. ”
Zhuo Zhaojie smiled and asked, "Ah, what is it?" ”
"My father asked the saint for an errand for me when he went to court today." Ning Shaobi mentioned this, her face was a little unsightly, and said, "Today, the Ministry of Industry played, saying that when the Cuiwei Mountain Palace was checked as usual, it was found that there were several leaks, and there were two palaces that were old and in danger, and it was recommended to demolish and rebuild, and the sage was approved, and my father would personally supervise it, and under the pretext that the Ministry of Labor Langzhong was on leave for business, he wanted to take me to assist, and the sage gave me the position of a member of the Ministry of Engineering according to his performance, and asked me to go to Cuiwei Mountain with my father...... Hey! ”
The official position of the Marquis of Yongcheng is the Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, and the Cuiwei Mountain Palace is damaged and needs to be repaired and rebuilt, all of which are under his control.
Zhuo Zhaojie was stunned when he heard this, and said, "Overseer? To Cuiwei Mountain? ”
"yes." Ning Shaobi was very dissatisfied and said, "How many days have we been married?" You want me to leave you. ”
Although Cuiwei Mountain is not far away, Zhuo Zhaojie also felt regretful in his heart when he heard this, and he sighed for a while before asking: "Then when will you leave?" ”
If this is what the Marquis of Yongcheng ordered, Ning Shaobi can push it back, but since it is the envoy that the Marquis of Yongcheng asked the sage for his son, it is not easy to disobey.
Ning Shaobi groaned: "It's probably just a few days." ”
Seeing that Zhuo Zhaojie's interest suddenly lowered, he also felt a little guilty, stroked Zhuo Zhaojie's hair, 'kissed' her cheek, and comforted: "I tried my best to urge the project so that they could get out of it quickly." ”
"In the end, it's a holy order, you still have to live a good life with peace of mind." Zhuo Zhaojie heard him say this, and comforted, "It's only a month or two away from summer now, and when the time comes, I will follow the past, and it will always be ...... when I get to Cuiwei Mountain."
Speaking of this, she couldn't help asking, "Shall I go to Cuiwei Mountain with you now?" ”
Ning Shaobi shook her head when she heard this, and said: "Let's not mention that the other courtyard over there has not cleaned up anything, and the holy car is about to leave in May, and the construction period is in a hurry, even if you go, I'm afraid I won't have the time to accompany you in the other courtyard, not to mention that now that Ning Shizhong has been sent away, this huge marquis mansion is really not watched by anyone, so I can only work hard for you." ”
Although Zhuo Zhaojie asked so, he also knew that the Marquis of Yongcheng asked Ning Shaobi for an envoy at this time, most likely because this father-in-law couldn't get used to Ning Shaobi going around him all day long, helping him everywhere, and deliberately wanted to let the two of them separate for a while - and if Ning Shaobi went to Cuiwei Mountain on a business trip and brought himself with him, first, the Marquis of Yongcheng would definitely not like it, and secondly, others would laugh at the fact that the two were inseparable for such a moment.
Hearing Ning Shaobi's refusal, he didn't speak again, just leaned quietly on his shoulder in a daze.
Ning Shaobi was silent for a moment, and then said: "My father and I are not in the house, I'm afraid that some Diao slaves will get the opportunity and will 'get' some means with you...... As for the big house, Siniang's matter, I have already agreed with my father, and I will discuss it when the Cuiwei Mountain Palace is repaired. ”
Zhuo Zhaojie will come to his senses, Ning Shaobi does not agree with the nephew of Yongcheng Hou to help his nephew, I am afraid that he is worried that he will have a deeper grudge with Dafang because of this, but it is just an excuse, in the end, Ning Shaobi has been in front of Princess Jiyang twice before, it is the fault of looking for Dafang, where is he afraid of Dafang? The most important thing is because he knows that he will go to Cuiwei Mountain with the Marquis of Yongcheng to supervise the repair of the palace in a few days, and he is not in the Hou Mansion, so he is afraid that he will suffer a loss if he stays alone.
Thinking about it, the Marquis of Yongcheng called his only son over so late and said these two things, one is the matter of the niece 'daughter', and the other is the matter of Ning Shaobi, not to mention the discord between the Marquis of Yongcheng and the brothers of Qi Guogong, even if the sympathy for the niece 'daughter' is limited, even if the two mansions are harmonious like ordinary brothers, but Ning Ruiwan, the niece 'daughter', can no longer kiss Ning Shaobi, the only son - so the Marquis of Yongcheng must have said first that he would give Ning Shaobi the position of a member of the Ministry of Works, and he would take Ning Shaobi to Cuiwei Mountain, and then talk about Ning Ruiwan's request for help- And Ning Shaobi wants to think about his wife, so naturally she doesn't approve of taking care of Ning Ruiwan at this eye joint.
And Ning Shaobi's side didn't 'want' to mention that she was going to leave early, but she put Ning Ruiwan in front of her.
After thinking about this section, Zhuo Zhaojie was moved and reluctant in his heart, and said lightly: "I can take care of it...... Besides, my parents, brother, and sister are also in Chang'an, so they really can't handle it, and it's only an hour or two before they send someone back to ask for advice. ”
Ning Shaobi said: "Well, Ming'er will ask someone to deliver a letter to my mother-in-law, so that I am not here, please take care of it more over there." He added, "Ming'er, let's go see my grandmother together." "This is to personally invite the eldest princess of Jiyang to watch Zhuo Zhaojie more when the Hou father and son of Yongcheng Hou are not in the Hou Mansion.
Such a considerate husband, Zhuo Zhaojie's heart softened into a puddle of water in an instant, she couldn't help but stretch out her arms around Ning Shaobi's neck, and took the initiative to 'kiss' his 'lips'......
