Xu nodded towards Xiangxi, and Xiangxi stepped aside. The corners of Xu's mouth smiled, but he sighed lowly, and sighed several times, "Thanks to you for helping in the past few years, otherwise this family doesn't know what it looks like." After a pause, he smiled bitterly, "Look at what I said, if it weren't for you, our family would have been a lonely ghost a long time ago." ”

was sad for a while, Xu naturally knew that Rong Zhao loved Rong Ze, but because of her love, she felt even more uncomfortable, and she always felt that she owed others.

Rong Zhao lowered his face and said angrily: "What kind of help? How ugly is this, we are originally a family, do we need to see the outside world like this?"

"You let me take care of the Rong family's accounts, I know how much our Rong family has to spend this year, although everyone is not like before, spending lavishly, but it adds up to a huge expense. ”

This is not counting the fact that sometimes some things do not go to the Rong family's account, but to go to the account of the house, just like who does the birthday penalty, it is all Rong Zhao's money, plus that expense, how much does it have to be.

Rong Zhao understood Xu's psychology, walked to Xu's side, took her hand, and said, "Although my father was framed, no matter what, the Rong family was implicated, and you were also implicated. My father is the head of the Rong family, and if he is not there, this family will have to be supported by Rong Yao, which is his responsibility. But ah, he is not angry, he doesn't have the ability, so he has to share it with my sister. It's my business with him, and I have nothing to do with you. It's he who owes me, not you, don't pull everything on yourself. ”

I say this to comfort people's hearts.

Rong Zhao smiled and patted Xu's hand, "Besides, you don't eat dry, like the second brother, they are not all doing things." You should think that it is the same as in Changge City, they are all doing things for the emperor. ”

After saying this, Rong Zhao suddenly paused, and Xu Shi also looked at her in a daze.

Rong Zhao directly compared Xiao Junjue with the emperor.

Rong Zhao wanted to bite off his tongue, this mouth, he would open his mouth for anything.

was embarrassed, Rong Zhao searched his intestines and thought about his words, at this time Qiushui hurriedly walked in, looking hurried and ugly.

When Xu Shi saw Qiushui, he hurriedly got up to greet him, very enthusiastic, "Qiushui girl is here, hurry, sit, let's talk together." She also wanted to prevaricate the embarrassment in front of her, but she was not as careful as Rong Zhao, and she didn't see that Qiushui was wrong.

Autumn water towards her blessed body, wiping sweat with a silk, this time is July, the weather is the hottest, this time is close to noon, the sun is more and more poisonous, walking this way on the sweat.

Xu asked people to move a small pier, and Qiushui sat under Rong Zhao, shaking the silk silk to cool off.

Rong Zhao took a watermelon to her and asked, "What happened?"

Qiushui took it and replied first, "It's not Chang Da yet, I have a bad conscience, and I went to the government to sue the prince, saying that the prince careless of human life and mutilated his brother." ”

Xu Shi was confused, "Who is this Chang Da, where did he come from?"

Rong Zhao said: "It's the elder brother of Chang Er in Zhuangzi." ”

Xu Shi was slightly surprised, and said with a cold face: "Then Chang Er threw himself into the well, what does it have to do with you? His second daughter-in-law assassinated the prince, and if he was not implicated, he should burn incense and worship the Buddha, and dare to beat a rake." ”

Rong Zhao smiled contemptuously and snorted: "Fake money, the day before yesterday, someone sent a message to me asking for three thousand taels of silver, saying that it was to compensate Chang Er and Chang Er's daughter-in-law for their two lives, do you think it's ridiculous?" and then said: "The money is on my head, let alone three thousand taels, I won't give me three cents." Just like this, the clown who jumps off the beam still dares to jump in front of me, let him sue if he wants to, and falsely accuse the vassal king, he can still stop him if he wants to die. ”

Xu Shilang smiled and pinched Rong Zhao's face, "He is also blind, dare to slander you, the overlord flower." ”

Rong Zhao pushed her hand and said coquettishly: "Second sister-in-law, you make fun of me again, although I am domineering, but I am also reasonable, I originally wanted to give him a hundred taels of silver to compensate, after all, Chang Er has a son under his knees, he is not wrong, it is all the sins done by the women of his family, and he has worked in the Zhuangzi for two years, you know that I will not treat people badly, and I will definitely help one or two, but I didn't expect his brother to be so ignorant, he dared to send a message to ask for money, and now he sued the government." Even the vassal king dared to sue, I think he is tired of life. ”

Xu Shi smiled and lowered his face again, and said, "But his accusation will damage the reputation of the King of Chu." ”

Rong Zhao smiled confidently, "The prestige that the prince has established over the years is not a small Chang Da can be damaged, no matter if the villain slanders, we just eat ours." Look at Qiushui again, "Don't worry about this, let him, I don't expect the government to have the courage to take this matter, maybe he will be severely punished." ”

Qiushui thought about it, too, he was in a hurry just now, he was at ease, and he talked to Rong Zhao Xu again.

Let's say that Chang Da made a disgraced face in the yamen, didn't get any benefits, and was beaten by the battle for forty boards, as Rong Zhao expected. dared to sue the prince, and the yamen rewarded him mercilessly for playing the board and serving. It's just that he still doesn't know how to restrain himself, and he still spreads rumors and makes trouble outside, but Xiao Junjue's good reputation that he has maintained for many years can be ruined by a few words of a well-known scoundrel, and everyone doesn't believe him.

Some people advised him to settle down and live his life well, otherwise he would not be rewarded. But not only did he not listen to persuasion, but he also scolded the man, saying that the man had accepted the silver from the king of Chu and said good things for him.

In this way, no one persuaded him anymore, let alone listened to his "complaints".

It wasn't long before he was no longer seen in the city, and he was later found in a ruined temple outside the city, but by then he was already a dead body.

Who killed him, no one investigated, this person is really not a good person, he has a bad mouth, and his character is not good, maybe he offended someone, or he owed a debt to the gambling house and was beaten to death.

Rong Zhao sat under the window, facing the sunlight and comparing his nails that had just been dyed with impatiens juice, which today was mixed with red and yellow, dyed orange, like the color of a candle.

"Didn't Miss say that Chang Da couldn't slander the reputation of the prince? Why bother to ...... again?" Qiushui took the cut watermelon and put it on Rong Zhao's small table, and talked about the murder outside the city, so he said.

Rong Zhao blew his nails, glanced at her, opened his mouth, motioned for Qiushui to feed her a piece of watermelon, took a bite, and said: "There is always a fly around you, do you want to pinch it to death?" took another bite, and then said: "Besides, the death of a person like him is a relief for others, and I am also for the people." ”

At the same time, two melons on one vine are different. Chang Er is honest and diligent. But Chang Da is a vice, he is lazy and lazy, and he is clearly a scoundrel.

Even his wife and his own daughter were sent to brothels to sell, just because they wanted to get a few taels of silver to gamble in the casino. What are you doing with such a man?

The child of Chang Er's family is a bad head, born stupid, Chang Da took him in for a few days, just to ask for money, and when there is no use value, he will be thrown aside and ignored anymore, how can he care about the affection of uncles and nephews.

Rong Zhao asked again, "Has the child been placed?"

Qiushui replied: "I have been sent to the Salesian Bureau." ”

The Salesian Bureau was opened by Xiao Junjue three years ago, which is dedicated to taking in some children without parents and has special care, and every year each state and county will organize a fundraising to fund the Salesian Bureau.

Rong Zhao bowed his head and said, "It's better to be in the Salesian Bureau than to follow that thing." ”

Qiushui thought about it, and was happy again, approached Rong Zhao's side, and said in his ear: "Miss told you a happy event, when I was sending fruit to the prince just now, I overheard that the queen mother had a miscarriage." ”

Rong Zhao has been anxiously waiting for this matter these days, just waiting for news to come. But I don't know if the news was strictly forbidden by the palace, and there has been no news.

When I heard it today, I was overjoyed, and I grabbed Qiushui's hand, and my eyes lit up, "Really?" Qiushui nodded vigorously, "I heard it so well." ”

Rong Zhao slowly let go of his hand and chuckled, laughing happily, "She also has today." ”

Looking out the window, there was a crystal teardrop in his eye, and the scorching light shone brightly, covering a golden edge.

Liu Fuxin, the pain of losing my son back then, you can taste it today, but compared to my pain, this pain is just the beginning.

Hearing the footsteps of the courtyard and seeing Xiao Rongsheng coming back, Rong Zhao quickly wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes.

"Mother. Xiao Rongsheng ran in and threw himself into Rong Zhao's arms, Rong Zhao looked at him and pouted, as if he was unhappy, "What's wrong?"

Xiao Rongsheng lay on Rong Zhao's shoulder with his face, and sulked, "Mother, you can also give me a sister, Rong Chun, that little rabbit cub just now, showed off to me that he has a sister who is well-behaved and beautiful." He tilted his face and coquettishly, "Mother, I also want you to give birth to a well-behaved and beautiful sister for me, and you will also give birth to me one." ”

Qiushui's heart tightened, and when she saw that the young lady's face had changed, she hurriedly hugged Xiao Rongsheng and got off Rong Zhao's body, "Xiao Shizi, the princess is not feeling well today, don't trouble her, come, Aunt Qiushui will take you to play." ”

Tong Yan is unscrupulous, but it is just a casual remark for a while, but it is like a needle, piercing Rong Zhao's heart.

Sent Xiao Rongsheng outside to play, Qiushui came back, and comforted Rong Zhao, "Miss, don't take it to heart, the world is young, and you don't understand anything." ”

Rong Zhao cried and laughed, and said, "My son, can I still be angry with him?" The bitter smile was like a sour plum stuck in her throat, she couldn't swallow it and couldn't spit it out, she closed her eyes and swallowed the sour plum with all her might.

Before there is no ability to take revenge, all the bitterness must be swallowed in the stomach.

After a while, he looked at Qiushui and said: "I saw that the son of the world has lost weight in the past few days, and I think it is to practice martial arts, you go and make a little more tonic for him." ”

Qiushui did as she said, and after she left, Rong Zhao lay down on the chair, and the tears in the corners of his eyes couldn't help but flow down.

After all, the momentary happiness is short-lived, but it can't make up for the eternal pain in her life. Those who have brought her pain, she will have to return sooner or later.
