Chapter 24 The Thoughts of the Marquis of Dingyuan

Nan Huaixin lost his mother at the age of six. That day, he led the little servant to happily top two strings of sugar gourds from the street, and also bought a colorful glazed horse back to the Dingyuan Marquis's Mansion.

When he arrived at the inner gate, Nan Huaixin heard a continuous cry.

He grabbed the sugar gourd in his hand and trotted all the way to his mother's room. Outside his mother's door, he saw his little sister crying and breathless.

Nan Huaixin wanted to pull the younger sister, but was also dragged down by the body of a three-year-old child. The bamboo stick of the rock sugar gourd cut the back of the young girl's hand.

The cry of the young sister was even more heartbreaking.

Inside the door, his father, the former Marquis of Dingyuan, walked to the door with Nan Huaixin's one-year-old brother in his arms, and looked at his eldest son in disappointment. He scolded the six-year-old boy for being unfilial, ignoring his mother's serious illness, going out to play, and breaking his sister's hand with food.

Nan Huaixin looked up at the familiar bed in a reprimand. In the middle of the bed, a pale hand hung down, and his mother never opened her eyes again.

Nan Huaixin's tears blurred his vision in an instant, and he was so sad that he couldn't remember to explain to his father that the sugar gourd was bought by him for his mother, and he also bought a beautiful colorful glass horse for his father. Just like what his mother said before he was in bed, this was the scene when my parents first met eight years ago.

The young father and his mother, who had not yet left the cabinet, fell in love with a glass horse, and the father gave the horse to his mother, and gave her a bright sugar gourd that she was not allowed to taste when she was in the boudoir.

He wanted to say to his father, "Your horse is for your mother, and your son is for you."

The former Marquis of Dingyuan, who lost his wife in middle age, had no intention of staying in the house after that, and invited himself to lead the troops to the border pass. After three years, there was only a black coffin when I returned home.

From the early death of his mother to the death of both parents, Nan Huaixin has never had the opportunity to give away his colorful glass horse.

It was also at that time that he always seemed to be the most unlucky of all. Every year on Chinese New Year's Eve, the siblings draw lots, and he will always be the one who chooses to keep vigil alone. On his grandmother's birthday, he always made mistakes, and the gift was never delivered to the one in his grandmother's heart.

Even with others, Nan Huaixin's luck seems to have been not good.

Four years ago, Nan Huaixin, who was also less than 16 years old, led the army for the first time with Chen Tianyang.

In the battle of Jingmen Pass, Chen Tianyang won the victory, and since then he has started his career as a victorious general.

And his ancestor was the founding hero of Emperor Taizu, and his grandfather and father were both famous generals on the battlefield, but he was defeated in the first battle. He made no mistakes in the use of troops and in scheduling, but God did not help him, 5,000 cavalry pioneers, horses suddenly plagued, and all cavalry turned into infantry. The grain and grass in the rear were blocked by ice and snow, and the supply was insufficient.

Since that year, the prestige of the Nanjiajun has been gradually replaced by the Chen Jiajun.

Two years ago, the seventh princess of Ji Lu favored the young Marquis of Dingyuan, and heard that Concubine Lin had already asked for grace in front of the saint, and she only waited for the holy decree to give her marriage. Nan Huaixin was involved in a peachy murder case because he helped a friend. Although he was innocent afterwards, the seventh princess had already fallen into his family.

In addition to these major life events, the Marquis of Dingyuan has always been unlucky, even in daily small things, Nan Huaixin is also mostly unlucky.

Just like today, he obviously ordered the little guy to quietly return home through the back door. But just after getting off the carriage, Nan Huaixin met his sister Nan Wanwan, who had been avoiding walking recently.

"Big brother, what are you busy with these days?" Nan Wanwan looked at Nan Huaixin in front of her with some dissatisfaction.

The girl with the double-ringed bun spread out her palms and said to her brother: "Big brother, you took the warm jade pair left by your mother from me a few days ago, saying that you wanted to give me a surprise on the day of the wedding. Tomorrow is my day, what about the jade pendant? What about surprises? ”

Nan Huaixin's eyes were a little evasive, his right hand was clenched into a fist, he coughed lightly twice on the side of his mouth, and said, "I have a bad headache today, and I don't know if I got a cold at night." Wanwan, let me go back and rest first. ”

Nan Wanwan was a little skeptical, and said to Nanhuai: "Big brother, if you are too busy, it is okay to make up for the gift in the future." It's just that the jade pendant you know, since it is a relic left to me by my mother, I will definitely wear it tomorrow on such a big day. ”

Nan Huaixin coughed even more, and the little guy next to him hurriedly stepped forward to support his body that was coughing a little shaky.

After all, the concern for her brother overcame the suspicion in her heart, Nan Wanwan scolded the little maid for not taking good care of the Hou Ye, and at the same time instructed her maid to hurry up to the kitchen to boil the white fungus red date soup that moistened the lungs.

Back in the room, the little maid looked at his master with a bitter face, and said sadly: "Master Hou, the young lady has said so, or send the jade pendant over tonight." ”

Nan Huaixin stood up and took down a dark purple satin brocade box from the rosewood bookshelf. He opened the brocade box, revealing the warm jade pair inside.

The pair is complete, but the veil tied with the double pendant and the tassel hanging down are too bad to be characterless.

The little servant boldly persuaded beside him: "This Master Chen's craftsmanship is worthy of his reputation, and he carves the double pendant to the same as the one on the Hou Ye's sketches." Miss will definitely like it when she sees it. ”

"In that case, I'll send you to Miss later." Nan Huaixin didn't know that this jade pendant was carved very well. If it weren't for the news that this craftsman Master Chen had returned to Beijing, Nan Huaixin would not have asked for this jade pendant from his sister temporarily.

If the rope is not damaged, this jade pendant is engraved with her sister's zodiac and favorite pattern, she will definitely love it. But this warm jade double pendant is valued by my sister, isn't the main reason that the winds and tassels on it are all made by my mother?

The tassel can't be restored, even if you see things and think about people in the future, you can't do it in the future.

When Nan Huaixin thought of this, he couldn't help but feel a little melancholy in his heart.

The little guy next to him hurriedly pounced and fell to his knees. He begged for mercy: "My lord, you will leave the slave as a lowly life." The slave sent the jade pendant over, and the young lady saw that Luo Zicheng was like this, and she didn't peel off the minion's skin. Who will take care of you in the future......"

"Okay, okay, you go out first, let the master be quiet." Nan Huaixin won't really care about the little guy, after all, the other party has been by his side since he was a child. It's just that this line is broken, and it's really a headache.

How could he be so unlucky!

Thinking of the bad things in Luozi, Nan Huaixin simply felt that it was a flying disaster and inexplicable!

He sent someone to find Craftsman Chen for three years, and when he got the letter at the beginning of this year, he immediately sent the jade pendant and the sketch. On that day, the jade pendant was finally carved in front of Wanwan and Lu, and Nan Huaixin also took it very seriously and took it personally.

But on the way home, Yu Pei had an accident.

On the other side of the alley, a tall horse suddenly galloped towards him, and the pedestrians were so frightened that they avoided walking. Nan Huaixin also hurriedly walked aside.

In the middle of the road, a girl was frightened in the middle of the road, and when she was about to be stepped on by a horse's hooves, a figure neatly dragged her away, taking her out of danger.

Before the girl could take a breath, she was slapped by the misunderstood county lord An Yi and staggered. In the panic, the girl naturally grabbed helplessly.

This grasp happened to be Nan Huaixin's sleeve.

The hand was crooked, the box fell, and the jade pendant fell out immediately. Nan Huaixin was originally a monkey fishing for the moon and caught the jade pendant.

But the county lord of Anyi is such a person who can easily calm his anger. She raised her hand and pulled out the hairpin on her head, wanting to tattoo the face of the girl who was saved by Chen Tianyang.

Chen Tianyang blocked, and the county lord of An Yi made a fuss, and the hairpin was coincidentally inserted into the veil on the top of the jade pendant in Nan Huaixin's hand.

This was originally something that the county lord of Anyi could save with a single let go. Chen Tianyang didn't know how to coax the vinegar jar first, and as soon as the vinegar jar stomped his feet, shook his hand, and used force, the red rope that had been crispy for a long time completely spread out and broke.

It was Chen Tianyang who saved people, and it was Lord An Yi who hurt people. From beginning to end, this matter had nothing to do with Nan Huaixin, he just stood closer to Chen Tianyang.

And he didn't stand there on purpose, he was still squeezed by the people who avoided him!

What is this called? How aggrieved he is in Nanhuaixin!

Raising his hand and pressing his forehead, Nan Huaixin recalled this experience, and felt that there was no one more unlucky than himself.

Every time!

Every time, really!

At the beginning of the year, I grabbed lots, and I saw who went to find Gu Yuan, who was sad all day long, and wanted to go down, it was him!

The eldest princess of Chaoyang threw dice at the banquet to see who would go back to catch the girl who dared to peep at the four princes, or him!

And also......

Wait, the eldest princess of Chaoyang feasted......

Su Zhaoning's bright and clear eyes appeared in front of Nan Huaixin's eyes again.

The eyes are good eyes, and the hands are also good hands, but they are unlucky.

A flash of inspiration flashed in Nan Huaixin's mind, and he suddenly had an epiphany.

People always need contrasts. In front of lucky people, such as Chen Tianyang, he Nan Huaixin is always the unlucky one. But every time he meets the second girl Su who is more unlucky, he Nan Huaixin doesn't seem to be so unlucky.

Although Su Jinyu rejected him, Nan Huaixin, the Marquis of Dingyuan, still decided to go to the Marquis of Chang'an Mansion as a guest again.

The eldest young master doesn't welcome himself, isn't there still a second master?

When he heard that the little servant came to tell him and asked to visit him by name, Su Jingzheng's whole face was radiant.

Although he was inspired to be a second ancestor since he was young, he relied on the Chang'an Marquis Mansion and did nothing all his life. But as a man, it doesn't mean that he doesn't like to be affirmed by others.

The Marquis of Dingyuan did not go to see his eldest nephew Su Jinyu, who had a bright future, but visited himself, proving that this Marquis was quite discerning.

Su Jingzheng personally greeted him to the outer courtyard.

Seeing that Second Master Su came over in person, Nan Huaixin took the opportunity to mention: "Ben Hou came here today, there is really something that has to trouble Master Su. I wonder if it's convenient for adults? ”

"Convenient, convenient, of course. Although the Hou Ye commanded, the lower officials did not dare to refuse. Su Jingzheng nodded in response.

Nan Huaixin immediately took the opportunity to propose: "Ben Hou wants to see Miss Su Er. ”

"This ......" Su Jingzheng had already obtained a reassuring promise from Su Jinyu, and he also knew that Su Zhaoning was short of time at this time. His feverish mind was suddenly awakened by a basin of cold water, and he didn't dare to make any more promises.

Nan Huaixin grasped the character of the two masters of the Chang'an Hou Mansion, and he retreated as a way forward: "Since Lord Su is inconvenient again, forget it." ”

Nan Huaixin bit the word very hard, and the meaning of the words made Su Jingzheng's old face red.

Seeing that Su Jingzheng still refused to let go, Nan Huaixin took another dose of fierce medicine, and he said: "It turned out that Ben Hou wanted to be wrong, and Master Su couldn't call the shots. ”

His daughter, how can he not call the shots!

Su Jingzheng's blood surged above his head, blocked Nan Huaixin's way, and asked, "Master Hou has only seen one side?" The little girl has not had a lot of time these days. ”

Nan Huaixin said with a smile: "It's just one side, if it's inconvenient for Second Miss Su, it's okay for Ben Hou to look at her from the side." ”

Su Jingzheng was dumbfounded when he heard this, and he replied, "How dare you, Master Hou, please come with me." ”

In fact, there was a drum beating in his heart. Could it be that Dingyuan Hou fell in love with his big girl?
