261. Chance encounters
I also saw that the bright yellow color at the front was particularly conspicuous, and with Xiao Yuan'er's speed, the team was not walking fast. I waited where I was, waiting for the father and son to see me. When I got closer, I found that Xiao Yuan'er was crying with tears on his face, and when I walked up, the little eyes that looked at him were both aggrieved and sad, but he didn't dare to withdraw his hand from his father's palm, but he looked at me pitifully, as if begging me to save him.
stepped forward and glanced at Ah Ping before bowing his head and asking, "What's wrong?" ”
But it was okay not to ask, Xiao Yuan'er cried directly when she asked. I was distressed as a mother, so I first went to pull away Ah Ping's hand and then hugged Yuan'er into my arms, at this time the child must have been unable to speak, so I had to ask the "culprit": "What happened?" How do you cry like this? ”
Ah Ping said unmoved: "Leave him alone." ”
How can it be left alone? The children were crying. But he swept around the back, frowned, and said in a low voice, "Go back first." ”
I still went back to the hut, and I waited for Ah Ping to wait for the rest of the people to retreat before asking what was going on. At this time, Xiao Yuan'er stopped crying, and lay on my shoulder and twitched, probably tired of crying.
Ah Ping glanced at the child and said, "If you are disrespectful to the Taifu, you should be punished." ”
I was stunned, disrespectful to Taifu? "What did Yuan'er do?"
"He tore off the book and paper, and spat in Taifu's teacup, and sued Taifu so angry that he sued me, do you think I can not punish him?" Ah Ping described the incident lightly, and I felt angry and funny when I heard it, why is this kid so naughty, even if he doesn't like to read, how can he spit in the teacher's teacup?
"How to punish him? Spanking? ”
I didn't ask Ah Ping to answer, Xiao Yuan'er was already touching his ass to show weakness to me, and I couldn't move him. But although Xiao Yuan'er is wrong in this matter, I still have something to say: "The child is still so young, why do you want to start studying?" ”
But when I saw Ah Pinglu stunned, he replied to me with some confusion: "Is there anything wrong with reading at this time?" He is already two years old, and he should have to learn something, and I worshipped Taifu before him when I was a child. ”
I'm a little astringent, the environment dictates, the concept comes from his own experience and experience, if you say that children should enjoy the fun of childhood, it definitely doesn't make sense. When he saw that I was silent, he softened his tone and said, "Don't think about it, although Yuan'er is small, even Mrs. Fang said that he has a very high understanding, but he is a little stubborn." ”
"Ah Ping, have you ever thought about it......" I looked for the wording, hesitated before saying: "Have you ever thought that Yuan'er is so young that he should actually let him retain his innocence as much as possible, and not put the responsibility on his body too early?" "What an older child, before he could say anything, he said that he would let him go to school. Xiao Yuan'er's behavior seems to be really bad on the surface, but in a sense, he is resisting.
Ah Ping didn't come to contradict me, but it was clear from the look in his eyes that he didn't agree with me.
There is a generation gap in communication, not a generation gap of age, but a generation gap of the times. So there will be obstacles in communicating with Ah Ping about the child's growth, of course, I have the psychology of instinctive calf protection, and Ah Ping is also due to the environmental factors of his growth.
Xiao Yuan'er was in a very good mood, as long as he interrupted him about other things, he would be forgotten about his father's beating. And the thing that can attract his attention is either playing or eating, Yan Qi made him his favorite chicken meatballs, his eyes immediately lit up, and he couldn't wait for me to wipe his little dirty face clean and followed Yan Qi away.
Privately, I asked Ah Ping if he would live in this house in the future. He came and took my hand and said, "Lan, I know you definitely like this place, and you don't like the gorgeous palaces in the palace, but this place is far away from the court, so let's come and live here occasionally, okay?" ”
Although he may have made up his mind, he was still asking for my opinion, and I did not embarrass him after a little silence, and made a compromise proposal: "Can you stay for one day a week?" He immediately responded: "Of course, if I go to the court in the morning, you can also come over, as a walk around will also help you recuperate." ”
Speaking of the body, I had to ask, "What does the Imperial Doctor say about my body?" ”
He hesitated and didn't hide it from me: "I have been lying on the couch for too long and dying of depression, which has caused my body to lose air and is difficult to continue, and it will take a period of careful recuperation to recover slowly." Lan, don't hold things in your heart in the future, if you have any unhappiness and anger, tell me, I saw you fall suddenly yesterday, you don't know how fast my heart was beating at that time, and I feel scared when I think about it later. ”
I nodded silently seriously, and I wanted to say something when I heard Yan Qi's voice outside the house: "Childe, there is a message over there that Master Huang of Hanlin is asking to see you in the imperial study." Ah Ping frowned, got up and walked to the door and asked, "What did you say?" ”
Yan Qi replied: "No." ”
Ah Ping turned around, and before he could speak, I said first: "If you have something to do, go and get busy first, and I'll take Yuan'er back to the dormitory later." ”
He took my promise and left, and now that he is king, he can no longer be as willful and reckless as before, and he must put the affairs of the state first in everything. Yan Qi is almost always with him now, so he put Yuan'er aside and goes with him.
Yuan'er didn't care, anyway, the reason why he liked Yan Qi was that he could have delicious food.
While eating with Yuan'er, I thought to myself that the plan for this week's trip must be carried out. First of all, I do miss my original home, and Ah Ping moved his family directly into the palace, of course, I have to come often, otherwise wouldn't it be in vain for his thoughts? Secondly, it is easy to go from thrift to luxury, from luxury to thrift, Xiao Yuaner's growth is very critical, he was born in the palace and grew up in the palace, he has never had a hard life when he was a child, such an environment has advantages and disadvantages, the advantage is that he can have sufficient nutrition and good medical conditions, and he has been arranged at such a young age to learn the atmosphere, and the disadvantage is that it is easy to make him anxious and not know poverty.
So every week, I decided that there could be no change, and I usually had to bring him here, only by knowing the hardships can I cherish the moment.
After that, everything was very peaceful, and I ate a smiling medicinal diet every day, and my physique changed a lot. Sometimes I feel like a stay-at-home wife, and Ah Ping wakes up early and goes to work in the dark every day, while I wait at home. will feel bored, but when Xiao Yuan'er goes to the imperial study to report, it will become lively when he comes back.
Yuan'er and Yungu's daughter-in-law get along well, Xin'er is two years older than Yuan'er, and she always plays with Yuan'er like a big sister.
On this day, Yun Gu and I were still laughing, and we were walking in the garden with our two children, when we suddenly heard something strange in front of us. I stared at it, and I could vaguely see that there were two people who seemed to be fighting, and there should be no fighting in this harem. Originally, I wanted to avoid the incident, but when I turned around, I paused again, and now I am not the original Xu Lan who stayed alone in the Orchid Garden, at that time, the outside affairs had nothing to do with me, just have Ah Ping to worry about. But in fact, it is precisely because of this that I am always in a passive situation, I am always looked down upon by Concubine Lu and beaten by the concubine, how can I still hide behind Ah Ping after this incident?
In the end, I was at fault for the concubine's incident, I had been in a weak position waiting for Ah Ping to come to my rescue, and once Ah Ping was incapable or couldn't catch up, it became such a tragic situation.
But who can protect whom forever? Not even Ah Ping. Now that he has ascended to the emperor, and I was canonized as the queen when I was still in a coma, according to what he said, I am the biggest in this harem, and I should be in charge of the harem affairs, but the queen's golden seal is still with him for the time being.
After thinking about it for a while, I decided to go and find out what was going on. I don't want to change, but in such a situation, I have to make myself stronger, not just a silk flower in Ah Ping.
When I got closer, I took a closer look and found that one of the two in the fight was actually Yan Qi. Didn't he go to the court with Ah Ping? How did you get into a fight with someone here? Paying attention to the other person, he felt that the figure seemed very familiar, and when he changed the angle, he was suddenly stunned, how could it be Zhu Gaoxu?
At the same time, the two people in the fight also saw me, Zhu Gaoxu slapped Yan Qi himself and took a few steps back, but immediately turned his head to look at me, and the surprise in his eyes was inexplicable: "Xiaolan, I can finally see you." ”
Yan Qi didn't make any more moves after seeing me coming, just stood aside with a calm face. I know the grievances between the two of them best, and I can't persuade them, so I can only turn a blind eye.
I was surprised and asked, "Why did you come to the capital?" ”
Zhu Gaoxu took a few steps closer to me, took away his smile, looked me up and down, and then asked instead of answering: "I heard that you are injured and in a coma for half a year?" I was silent, this matter should not be a secret, so I confessed: "It's over, it's okay." ”
Zhu Gaoxu's eyebrows furrowed, "You have lost weight like this and said it's okay, I was very uncomfortable after learning about this last month, and this time I begged my father to bring me to the capital." ”
I was slightly stunned: "Your father is here too?" ”
"Well, my father and my eldest brother are here together."
"What's going on?" Called King Yan's family to the capital, did something happen?
But I heard Zhu Gaoxu say: "My father didn't tell me in detail, it should be a matter in the court, and the emperor wants to discuss it with my father." "I noticed that Zhu Gaoxu changed the name of Ah Ping, even if there were not many intersections before, but he also called Ah Ping Brother Wei, but now the monarch and the minister are different, even this upright guy knows that he has to change his title.
However, he said that I didn't believe that I didn't know why I came to Beijing, although Zhu Di was far-sighted, he didn't even tell his son about the purpose of the trip. Since it is difficult to find out anything from Zhu Gaoxu's mouth, I will not say more.
It's been nearly a year since I said goodbye on the way back from the battlefield, and I won't be able to do anything to others, but Zhu Gaoxu has always been good friends with me, and I'm still very happy to see him. After Yan Qi left, he found a nearby pavilion to sit with Zhu Gaoxu to catch up, and asked Xiaoxiao to go back to get wine.
Zhu Gaoxu couldn't sit still, his attention was attracted by the two children, and he asked me with a surprised face: "Xiaolan, which one is your baby?" ”
I was also speechless about his brain circuit: "Which one do you look like?" "When did you know him? No matter how you look at it, it can't be a girl with such a big heart. But Zhu Gaoxu was still stupidly looking left and right and comparing with me, and finally pointed at Yuan'er and said, "This, he looks like you." ”
Unable to move, he deliberately pulled his heart to the front of him: "Don't you think she is more like me?" ”
As a result, Zhu Gaoxu really nodded: "It's like, then this girl is it?" Who is this boy? ”
Yun Gu next to her couldn't help but laugh, Zhu Gaoxu turned his head to look at me, looked back at me, and suddenly realized: "Xiaolan, you fooled me, by the way, I remember that you gave birth to a son." As he spoke, he wanted to pull Xiao Yuan'er's hand and get close, but Xiao Yuan'er arrogantly avoided it and ran over and squeezed into my arms, next to Xin'er.
