Chapter 232: Those Two Fools Can Sit Until Dawn
Ling Chaofeng and Pei'er glanced at each other, and Pei'er said, "Daddy, I want to buy a lot of delicious food for my mother, and I will leave all the chicken legs for my mother in the future." ”
"Good." Ling Chaofeng praised his son, but his heart was full of worry, this is not something that can be carried by eating a few good meals.
The joy brought by the child was quickly replaced by the worry about Xiaowan, he knew that the hardest thing to give birth to a child was the mother after all.
However, Xiaowan worked very hard, eating and drinking soup every day, and in the first few days, she couldn't feed enough, and the two children were so hungry that she cried, and then gradually became easy, and she could feed both dolls at a time.
The whole family tried their best to take care of the mother and son, and as soon as Xiaowan was free, she called Pei'er to her side and never let him be left out in the cold.
Just when Lian Yi arrived in the capital by boat, the letter from home also happened to arrive, and when he learned that Xiaowan gave birth to a pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses, Lian Yi sighed that he had no child, and he couldn't even wait for Xiaowan to give birth.
Ershan seemed to see her thoughts, and coaxed his wife: "Zhenye said that he would take grandma over to take care of him for a few days, and I agreed." ”
"Hmm." Lian Yi responded.
"There's a case to investigate, and I'm going to the south." Ershan said, "You come with me, let's stop by to see the landscape." ”
Lian Yi became happy at this time, hurried home to clean up, and followed Ershan into the palace to thank him.
When they entered the palace, they happened to meet General Shen coming out of the palace, Ershan took Lian Yi forward to greet him, and after the two were separated, Lian Yi asked her husband softly: "Did my brother go to propose?" ”
"The Ministry of Industry Shangshu suddenly resigned, and many things were lost for a while, and everyone was busy." Ershan said helplessly, "Anyway, he always has various reasons to hide, I think he has to wait for the county lord to become someone else's wife one day, and he will know that he regrets it." ”
But this time, Ershan didn't say it.
It was day and night, Bi Zhenye returned home, the people in the house had already prepared everything, they went to the prime minister's mansion, and moved all the details of the eldest young master, including a lot of clothes made for her son when Mrs. Bi was still in the capital.
Bi Zhenye lit countless candles and oil lamps, illuminated the room, tried on the clothes one by one in front of the mirror, and was so hot that he was sweating profusely before choosing an azure robe.
Then it was to prepare gifts, from the four treasures of the study to the antique weapons, which he naturally ordered people to take from home.
It is said that his father was very angry, but there was no way, although he was taken back to the capital, but the emperor punished him to close the door for two years, and in these two years, the sky fell outside, and he could not come out. So he could only watch his son take away the most valuable treasures in the family.
The personal attendant reminded Bi Zhenye: "Young Master, your gift is too valuable, will people like Lord Shen think that you are greedy for vanity." ”
"Although things are precious, they also match the temperament of Shen Wangfu, if you give real money and silver, it is really vanity." Bi Zhenye said, "The lord of the county, do you want me to marry in a golden hairpin skirt?" ”
For this day, Bi Zhenye made full preparations, and did not run away as Ershan said, he knew that there was only one chance to propose marriage, and if it didn't work out this time, the county lord would become someone else's bride.
A few years ago, when my father was still quite prestigious in the court, he was looking forward to marrying with the palace, but unfortunately Prince Shen didn't look at their family at all, Bi Zhenye didn't care at that time, but now he understands that with his father's character, how can people be willing to marry their daughters.
But now, he is on his own, he is himself, and he has nothing to do with his family and father.
In this way, the next day the court was dispersed, and Ershan listened to his brother outside the palace: "I went to King Shen's mansion today to propose marriage, and if there is a result, I will come to your house to report the good news." ”
Ershan was stunned: "Really? I thought you were going to keep running away. ”
Bi Zhenye smiled: "You look down on me like this? ”
It just so happened that seeing the father and son of the Shen family coming out of the palace, Prince Shen had never liked to be hugged by people, so the other ministers stood up to say hello and hurriedly left, only to see Bi Zhenye striding forward, hugging his fists and saying: "The prince has leisure today, and the younger generation wants to come to the door to disturb." ”
The father and son glanced at each other, and they had already heard some rumors, that is, they said, "It's about noon." ”
Ershan stood aside, and when the Shen family's father and son left, he patted his brother on the shoulder: "I'm waiting for your good news." ”
A torrential rain in the afternoon not only did not make the weather cooler, but the steaming water vapor also added a bit of stuffiness, making people breathless.
In the palace, Shen Qing served her mother for a lunch break, gently shook the Luo fan for her and gossiped, and when her mother went to sleep, she left the main courtyard and wanted to go back to the boudoir.
When she was discharged from the hospital, she saw someone coming to pass the word, Shen Qing said that her mother was asleep, and she had something to deal with, and when she learned that there was a guest in front of the door, she brought her maid to greet her.
It's a little strange today, the people under the door only said that there were guests, not to mention who it was, Shen Qing didn't think much about it at that time, but he could see it by walking a few steps, and he didn't want to go to the front hall, but he saw Bi Zhenye standing there.
The county lord had a slight sweat on his body, and when he walked into the shady hall, he only felt refreshing and pleasant, but when he saw Bi Zhenye, his heart suddenly became hot.
"Why are you here?" Qing'er spoke, but she still spoke in the inn, where they had been together for many years.
Bi Zhenye looked at her in a daze, she hadn't seen her for a long time after returning to Beijing, at that time she was still wearing thick clothes and a windbreaker in Baisha County, and now when she meets again, the beautiful girl is dressed in light silk and fine gauze and has a graceful posture, not too gorgeous and delicate dress, but it is so light and light, it can be fascinating.
"Looking for my father, or my brother?" Qing'er said again, "My father went out and came back at night, my brother is no longer living in the palace, you look for him, you want to go to the princess's mansion." ”
"The prince said it was after noon, I was confused, but I didn't ask what time it was." Bi Zhenye was annoyed, he was too excited at the time.
"Then what's the matter, leave a word, and I can convey it on my behalf." Qing'er said, "Sit down and have a cup of tea, the weather is very hot, this time I will go out, the sun is scorching." ”
"I'm here to propose." Bi Zhenye said straight to the point, "I brought a generous gift and sincerity, and I originally wanted to propose marriage to the prince for me and you." ”
Qing'er turned around and wanted to order the maid to serve tea, and when she heard this, she turned back in a daze and looked at the person in front of her.
"Nature...... is presumptuous. Bi Zhenye's eyes stared at Qing'er for a moment, and said with a firm expression, "But I can't wait any longer, I can't wait any longer, I can't wait until one day, you become someone else's bride." ”
Qing'er hadn't eased up yet, and her heart seemed to stop beating, as if for a moment, only they were left between heaven and earth.
"I'll wait a little longer, and wait for the prince to return home." Bi Zhenye said, "It doesn't matter later, no matter what happens today, I want to see the prince." ”
"But......" Qing'er was in a trance, she was obviously happy, but she subconsciously suppressed it, just like in this relationship, she would never take a step forward.
"I should have asked you first, blaming me for never daring to speak to you when I was in Lizhou." Bi Zhenye said, "And you and I are both children of the family, I know that we must come to propose relatives in a dignified manner." ”
Qing'er bowed: "That...... Just wait for my father to come back, you sit down, I, I will let the maidservant bring tea. ”
So the two of them sat facing each other on two sides of the hall, so silently opposite each other.
In the princess's mansion, Prince Shen was fishing by the pond with his grandchildren, and the people in the family hurriedly came, and he asked lightly: "How are they, what did Qing'er say?" ”
The family said helplessly: "Lord Wang, the county lord and Master Bi sat quietly in the front hall, not speaking or moving, as if waiting for you to go home." ”
When the eldest princess on the side heard this, she was so happy that she squirted out a mouthful of tea, which made her children laugh.
Because her father-in-law is the imperial uncle who has watched him grow up since he was a child, the eldest princess also felt embarrassed, wiped it indiscriminately and ran to say: "Uncle Huang, if you don't go back tonight, if your aunt doesn't care, those two fools can sit until tomorrow morning." ”
Shen Wang Ye dropped the fishing rod and prepared to go home, shaking his head and saying, "Who is this kid with?" ”
The sun is gradually setting, the sunset at the end of summer is very beautiful, Xiaowan is almost out of the confinement, she has already landed and walked around, and she has come downstairs to eat with everyone, just after eating at this time, Ling Chaofeng supported her, and watched the sunset in front of the inn.
The boat on the dock came from nowhere, and waves of people hurrying towards the sunset, Xiaowan looked around, only to see a pair of mother-daughter people walking on the road, and suddenly, the young woman fell.
"Wake up, pretend to be dead, wake up quickly......" The older woman didn't look like a mother at all.
