Chapter 10: Problems

"The third aunt has a madness, and her emotions are a little extreme."

"Is that so?"

She also had a daughter, but she died a few years ago...... These things at home gave Xianggong a headache...... The eldest mother's surname is Li, her name is Li Wan, and her father is the former secretary of the military department, but her grandfather is old and retired when she was last year. ”

"If you are husband and wife, you are one flesh."

Out of the courtyard of the third lady, Zhong Lixuan and Situ Xi communicated quietly, whispering before she folded her hands and fell to her stomach, she had not yet recovered from her senses.

Situ Xi was thinking about something else in his heart, and whispered that the third lady was the favorite concubine of Duke Huaiming, and what happened just now, he didn't even show up, it seems that he wants to meet his father-in-law, I'm afraid it will be a little difficult.

……

Green pines are planted all over the courtyard, the courtyard in front of you is a quiet place, the eldest lady Li should be a quiet person, the incense burner in the courtyard is wafting wisps of green smoke, I don't know if there is an auditory hallucination, I always feel that there is a faint sound similar to knocking on a wooden fish in the depths of the yard.

Walking here, Steward Chen told the three of them to slow down, and he and the two of them waited outside, only letting Situ Xi and his wife enter the courtyard.

"The wind shakes the tree, and the clouds are dusty. If you know what is happening today, you will not know what you are. ”

The immature child's voice came into Situ Xi's ears, and he walked more lightly, this poem ...... It seems that there are people in the temple who are actually practicing meditation.

The poetry sounded in his ears, and a gentle look appeared on Zhong Li's face, and it was the first time that such an expression appeared after entering the Huaiming Mansion.

"It's Brother Mo, the eldest mother's child."

In this courtyard, there was only one maid in the same courtyard as her own courtyard, and under her leadership, the two came to the door of the room where the sound came from, and Zhong Lixuan immediately knocked on the door.

"Auntie, I'm here to visit." Knocking lightly on the door a few times, Zhong Lishu greeted softly.

"Sister Sorrow!"

The sound of reading in the room stopped abruptly, and a surprised voice came out, and then a child of one meter three or four rushed out of the wooden door, he was wearing a brocade robe, the front of the clothes were made of jade, wearing a small hat, and he looked like he was eight or nine years old.

"Brother Mo, did you read the book just now? You have an impetuous temperament. ”

Behind the child, a middle-aged woman in plain white clothes walked slowly, her body was thin, her hair was coiled, and although her words were reproachful, they were full of tenderness, so that people could quickly perceive that she was a quiet person.

"I've seen the Nine Kings, my kid is a little stubborn by nature, and I'm abrupt of you."

"It's okay, Situ Xi has seen the eldest lady." Li's respect was not false, and Situ Xi hurriedly returned the salute.

"Auntie, Su'er and Xianggong are here to pay their way back today." Zhong Li looked at the woman in white and explained to her what he meant.

"Got it. The return should be on the third day after the wedding, and today is already overdue, and your short hair is even more impolite. ”

Although Li was preaching, his face was unusually calm, not happy, sad or angry, just expressing his own opinions.

"I know I'm wrong."

"I sent someone to draft that post, and according to your situation, in fact, no one cares if you don't come back. Mo Ge'er has been a little distracted recently. He often mentioned you a few days ago, but the lord didn't let him go out, so I had to ask you to come to the door and talk to him by the way. ”

……

Just because the child is in a bad mood, Li's post is sent, Zhong Lixuan must come back, although this is common sense, it is also the difference between respect and inferiority, whether it is in terms of generation or status.

But Zhong Limo was not repulsed in her heart, looking at his appearance, her relationship with Zhong Limo should be good.

After a while of greetings, Li handed Zhong Limo into the hands of the two, and he turned around and went into the house and closed the door.

When his mother left, Zhong Limo immediately smiled, jumped to the side of the two, and looked at Situ Xi with curiosity on his face.

"Brother-in-law, are you a proton?"

A straightforward question became the first sentence between the two.

This kid has big eyes, and he says this sentence with a childlike face, which really makes people can't be angry.

"yes." Situ Xi grabbed Zhong Limo, who was about to speak, with his hand, and after saying that it was okay, he looked at Zhong Limo and replied.

"Brother-in-law, you are so good-looking, and my friends in the academy always say that I am a little fat." Zhong Limo looked at Situ Xi's handsome face, and touched his somewhat round belly again.

"Brother Mo, have you encountered any troubles lately?"

Zhong Lixuan was very curious about what difficulties his younger brother encountered at a young age, and this younger brother was the only one in the house who often came to his courtyard to comfort him, and although the gentlemen who taught him told him not to contact him as much as possible, he would still occasionally bring himself some snacks.

"Yes, sister Su, brother-in-law, you come with me." Zhong Limo secretly glanced at the door, as if he was afraid that his mother would hear it.

……

"Sister Su, Mo'er remembers that you used to look through the ancient books at home for a while, right?"

In the pavilion of the annex, Situ Xi and Zhong Lisu were led to sit down on a bench, Zhong Limo brought some melons and fruits for the two, he didn't eat them himself, stood in the center of the pavilion and asked Zhong Lisu.

"Yes." Zhong Lisu was obsessed with the way of poetry for a while, and he worked hard to study it for a while, but what he wrote was always unsatisfactory, so he wanted to find some inspiration in ancient books.

"That's great." Zhong Limo was overjoyed and continued: "Actually, I overheard Uncle Wei talking to them a few days ago. ”

"They said that His Majesty had issued an edict because of the appearance of a rainbow in the sky, and my father told them to find a way to solve this matter, but they couldn't help it, they were very distressed."

"Sister Su, you also know, my father never looked at me squarely. Now that I have this opportunity, I think that if I can share his worries, even if I can provide some help, he will always reward me, and then the gentlemen will look up to me, and I will not be beaten up all day. ”

"So I thought about finding a way to find a way in the ancient books, this matter involves Your Majesty, and I don't dare to ask my husband and outsiders, so I want to ask my sister, after all, my sister should have read more ancient books than me."

The matter is very simple, but Situ Xi was very surprised after hearing it, although Zhong Limo is young, but his mind is quite mature, although some ideas and practices are very naΓ―ve, but he should know much more than his peers.

After listening to him state the ins and outs of the matter, Zhong Lixuan immediately smiled bitterly, Mo'er was young after all, and he took things for granted. Wei Ling and his strategists are his father's right-hand men, and they have made many achievements on the battlefield, and they can't even do this kind of brainstorm......

"Mo'er, leave these things to the adults, if you study hard, your father will also ......"

"It's easy to do."

Zhong Li was halfway through her speech, when she was suddenly interrupted, she suddenly paused and moved her eyes to the side.

Situ Xi was holding half a loquat in his hand and chewing on it.

The loquat of Xuan'an ripens quite early, in early March, the fruit is quite full, and when you bite into it, the juice is rich, sweet and sour, which is really good.
