This set of three-entry courtyards is very simple, of course, there is no such landscape as the lotus pond corridor, only a slightly dilapidated pavilion with scratches on the pillars. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 There is a flower garden outside the info pavilion, with phoenix wood, tulip and jasmine, although it is not a precious variety, it is better to match in an orderly manner, but it is also pleasing to the eye.

"I planted these flowers with my own hands, and you can see that phoenix tree that I planted three years ago, waiting to be put away, it is the best time of the year. Su Jinnian sat on the stone bench in the gazebo and said with a smile.

Su Ke leaned against the pillar, holding a copper wine jug in his hand, and poured a few mouthfuls into his mouth very boldly, and said with great fascination: "When you were in the palace, eldest sister, you liked to serve these flowers and plants in your spare time. ”

Su Jinnian nodded and said, "Life is like this, there has to be some fun." My father was so obsessed with the battlefield that he left you and Qingwu at home, and for me, there is no difference between taking care of you and serving flowers and plants. ”

Su Ke turned his head to look at her and asked curiously, "How do you say this?"

Su Jinnian said with a smile: "It's all hard work, but it's also very happy." Watching you grow up is like watching these flowers bloom, which is my pleasure, and it is also my responsibility and pride as an eldest sister. ”

At that time, King Wu was not a prince, but just an ordinary county king, because he was not a brother to today's saints. At that time, the palace was still the palace of Jiangxia County, and Su Bingzhu, the king of Jiangxia, was fighting on the battlefield and left his three sons and daughters in Shangjing. Su Ke was only six years old at the time, and his younger sister Su Qingwu was even more a toddler, so the responsibility of guarding this family fell on the shoulders of Su Jinnian, who was only twelve years old. She was sensible very early, and after years of tempering, she became more and more assertive, and no one in the entire county palace dared to question her words, so she managed everything in an orderly manner.

Today's sage once said with a smile that if Su Jinnian was a man, he would never dare to hand over the military power to King Wu alone.

Although this is a joke, it can also be inferred from the sage's thoughts.

Ten years ago, the Battle of the Seven Kingdoms ended, and Su Bingzhu returned triumphantly and was named King of Wu, becoming the only remaining prince of the Great Qin Dynasty. It is said that at this time, Su Jinnian, who is already sixteen years old and flowers, can find a good couple, because he has reached the age of marriage. Since then, people have been inquiring about the palace to see if they can welcome this virtuous lord of Shangjing home.

No one thought that the marriage of the lord of the county would drag on for seven years.

At that time, there were rumors in the capital, some said that the eyes of the big county lord were above the top, some said that the big county lord was infected with a dark disease, and there was even a terrible arrangement Su Jinnian didn't love men and only liked women, so he couldn't get married.

At that time, Su Ke only did one thing a day, leading a group of evil slaves to the street early in the morning, and wandering around the Qinglou wine shop, as long as he heard someone talking about his eldest sister, whether he was a dignitary or a common man, he would be beaten to death if he was caught. For this reason, many children of officials and eunuchs suffered, and the gentlemen in the capital felt numb as soon as they heard the word Su Ke.

In the face of the important ministers of the court who either explicitly or implicitly let Su Ke'an share a little, King Wu only said three words lightly: "Good fight." ”

That was also the only time that King Wu was not angry because of the little prince's wanton recklessness.

Su Ke knew in his heart that the reason why the eldest sister was reluctant to marry was because she and her younger sister, she was afraid that no one would take care of these two naughty children, so she repeatedly postponed her marriage.

When they grew up, Su Jinnian was relieved to marry Ningzhou and pursue his own life.

However, is this kind of life really what the eldest sister likes?

"What kind of person is my brother-in-law?" asked Su Ke.

Su Jinnian thought for a while and said, "Why do you ask about this? Your brother-in-law is a nerd, in the words of the head of the Chen family, he has no ambitions and empty talk to mislead the country." However, he is very endurant to be ordinary, and like me, he does not ask for food and clothing, and in addition to reading, he usually raises flowers and vegetables. ”

Su Ke nodded, and after a moment of silence, he asked very seriously, "Sister, do you like this life now?"

Su Jinnian stood up and walked to his side, and said calmly, "Of course I like it." ”

"But you used to have a good time in the palace. ”

"That's because I have to take care of you, what would you think if I was depressed every day? It's not that I hate life in the palace, it's just that I prefer the tranquility of the moment. ”

Su Ke sighed slightly, and reluctantly smiled: "But...... You're too bitter now. ”

Su Jinnian raised his hand and rubbed his hair, and said with a smile: "Silly brother, do you really think that the eldest sister is too poor to open the pot? Not to mention the priceless dowry list when she got married, just the Chen family will send a large sum of silver every year, but I use it elsewhere." ”

Su Ke teased: "Is there such a thing, sister, where did you use the silver, it wouldn't be to release money, right?"

Su Jinnian said angrily: "What nonsense? I'm not that kind of person. As you can see, Ningzhou is a good place, with developed commerce and wealth, but it is all in the hands of the four great families. And because of its reputation, the whole of Ningzhou is mixed, and there are many people who commit adultery, so the life of the people is not easy. In the past few years, the heavens have not been beautiful, the Tiancang River and the upper reaches of the Weishui River have been flooded repeatedly, and a large number of refugees from the surrounding areas have come to Ningzhou, who wants to pay attention to them? I am afraid you have never seen this kind of situation of starvation all over the wilderness, after discussing with An Zhi, I took out the money and secretly set up a rice shop, and set up a soup kitchen shop on the ground in Ningzhou, although it could not fundamentally solve the problem, at least it could save some lives. ”

Su Ke looked at the eldest sister in a daze, it turned out that the unmarked soup kitchens in Ningzhou City were all made by her.

"Isn't that the duty of the government?" he wondered.

Su Jinnian sighed and said: "The rules in the officialdom are strict, the regulations are cumbersome, and refugees have always been a difficult problem to solve. ”

"But ......"

He wanted to say that this has nothing to do with you, but after thinking about it, no one forced the eldest sister to do this, and she and her brother-in-law acted in secret, not for fame or profit, and she was willing.

Su Jinnian smiled and said, "So you understand now?"

Su Ke remembered a past incident and sighed: "When I first arrived at Wuliang Mountain, the sect master's sister said that you are compassionate and have a bodhisattva's heart, and I think she knows the reason for these things very well. And I'm your younger brother, because of my petty nature, I didn't help you, sister, I'm such a bastard. ”

Su Jinnian stared at his face and shook his head: "I know that your nature is not bad, and I won't blame you for anything." By the way, isn't Wuliang Mountain very fun? I heard An Zhi say that there are many cultivators in this world who can go to heaven and earth, and all of them have great magical powers. ”

Su Ke was curious: "Brother-in-law also knows how to practice?"

Su Jinnian smiled and said: "He knows what kind of practice, a nerd, it's okay to talk on paper, but it's humiliating to move his hands and feet." ”

Su Ke likes the eldest sister's expression very much, as long as Chen Anzhi is mentioned, whether she is ridiculing or approving, her eyes are warm and tender. For the little prince, the eldest sister is definitely the first in her heart, as long as she can be happy and healthy in this life, so luxurious or hard, what does it matter?

He suddenly understood something he hadn't noticed before.

Su Jinnian noticed the change in his expression and said with emotion: "In the past twenty-three years, for the sake of the whole family and to take care of and raise you, although I am also very happy, it is not the life I want to pursue after all." Nowadays, although I have a lot of food and rice, I live a full and happy life every day, so you don't have to worry about me. ”

Su Ke nodded, and suddenly thought of a question, the eldest sister is twenty-six years old this year, although she is still young, she should also consider the problems of her children. She and Chen Anzhi have been married for three years, but there has been no movement in this regard, and she couldn't help but say, "Sister, why don't you raise a nephew for me?"

Su Jinnian slapped him, then lowered his head, a maternal glow appeared on his face, and said softly: "Actually, Lang Zhong has already diagnosed the pulse and said that I am already three months pregnant. ”

Su Ke's face was sluggish, and then he reacted, his face was full of ecstasy, and he suddenly jumped three feet high, shouting: "I want to be an uncle!"

Su Jinnian looked at his younger brother who had fallen into madness, with a happy and satisfied expression on his face.

Everyone in the world says that immortals are good, but they can't forget their fame. Where will the past and the present meet? A pile of grass is gone.

But for yourself, as long as you can pursue the joy of life and enjoy the joy of family with your family, this is the real fairy day.
