Chapter Ninety-Nine: Refreshing
Ling sat in the living room of General Weiyuan's mansion, pinched Brother Qing'er's arm, and gossiped with Xiang.
"I've grown a lot taller." There was some love in her eyes.
Although he went back to his parents' house, his father and mother were not there, and only such a widowed sister-in-law guarded his nephew, who was only eleven or twelve years old, and his life was far away.
"Now is the time to grow up, Brother Qing likes to hang out with his uncle the most, half a child, very wild." The corners of Xiang's eyes smiled with some fine lines, the corners of his mouth were slightly drooping, and he looked sad all year round. Even when he laughed, he frowned and felt a touch of sadness.
The Ling family couldn't help but think of Xiang's good looks when he was young, and his heart was also a little sour, so he sent Brother Qing out to play, so he raised his eyebrows and pretended to be a little happy, "By the way, Brother Yao'er's marriage is decided?" ”
"It's decided, Yao Taishi's granddaughter, her name is Zixian. I have seen that girl, she is quiet, with a bookish air, and she is a blessed one. It's just that Layue is going to get married, and after the New Year, Brother Yao has to go back to the frontier. "Obviously a happy event, talking and talking, it fell silent again.
Ling was also silent at the moment.
This time I came to the door, it was the prince's intention. not only accepted her dowry, but also urged her to come to the door to ask for her mother's share. After sitting for a long time, she couldn't even say half a word.
Xiang also felt that the topic was heavy, and then sent the maid out, taking the sister-in-law's hand and mentioning another matter.
"Didn't we hold a banquet in the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion in September, and the two concubines of the second prince lost their manners in public, can my sister still remember?" Xiang whispered to her.
Such a major event, the Ling family naturally remembered. When the prince returned home that day, he was in a rare and happy mood, and he drank a lot of wine with Liu Meiren in his arms.
Ling lowered his head, his eyelids drooped slightly, and he held back the emotion in his eyes, "Remember." ”
"At the end of the banquet that day, I carefully inquired about the people in the house, and heard something from the mouth of a maid. A pair of daughters of the Ministry of Rites, Shangshu Chen Gongdao, put something into the wine of the Li family and the Cheng family. Later, I asked someone to inquire outside, and I heard that the two concubines of the Chen Mansion had the same hysteria......"
When Xiang said this, he saw Ling glaring at her fiercely, and immediately stopped talking and stopped talking.
"You and I know this matter well, don't mention it again." Ling said. Even so, her heart still hurt like a pinprick.
The Chen sisters have always been the only one who is the head of the Yichang county, and behind the Yichang county lord, there is the shadow of the prince.
But when she thinks of the ambiguous relationship between the prince and the lord of Yichang, her heart will be disturbed.
There is no one more pathetic than her, the crown princess, her husband is not loved, and there are no heirs, and every day of torment is like cooking oil on fire, but she has to hold the mask of the crown princess, day after day.
Xiang Shi covered his lips, and his voice was lowered, "It's me who trespassed, I just want Zhuzhu to pay attention to it, so as not to be deceived by these villains." ”
"Zhuzhu", the name of the girl, since the death of her parents and brother, no one has called her so long ago.
Ling was in a trance for a moment.
She was also the treasure in the palm of her parents, and her name was taken from the "pearl falling jade plate", which also means "like a jewel".
At the moment, his throat tightened slightly, and he couldn't help but stand up, "I suddenly remembered that there are still things waiting for me to deal with in the house, so I will leave first." ”
She said that she didn't wait for the Xiang family to stay, but she came out in a hurry, for fear of losing face in front of her widowed sister-in-law.
.
It is rare for the prince to step into the princess's garden.
He specially wore a crimson round neck, black fur cuffs, embroidered with a four-clawed python, and tied with a jade belt. The dream husband of the daughter's family in Haojing City should be like this.
With his hands behind his back, he walked into the princess's room, and saw the beauty sitting in front of the rhombic glass.
Ling's hair was moist and black, and the crows and crows poured down like a waterfall.
The prince's eyes lit up, and he walked behind her at the moment, holding the table with both palms, as if taking the Ling ring into his arms.
In the rhombic mirror, the man's handsome face was close to her hair, and his cold face also had a rare softness, "I'm back, huh?" ”
His nasal voice rose slightly, with some inexplicable desire.
Ling's heart tightened, and he lowered his eyes silently, which could be regarded as acquiescence.
"What do you say, your widowed sister-in-law?" The prince asked again, pinching her chin with his right hand, forcing her to raise her head and look at herself in the rhombic glass.
Ling saw his eyes from the rhombic glasses, like wolves and tigers, full of threat.
"She's just crying......" she said softly.
"Crying for what?" The prince's fingers rubbed Ling's chin, and his voice was listening with a slight smile.
"Crying daddy, crying husband, crying for herself......"
"So, you don't ask for money?" The prince's voice became more dangerous, and the strength of his men became tighter.
Tears gradually accumulated in Ling's eyes, and he wanted to break free from him, but he was gnawed by him fiercely, and everywhere he passed, there were bruises and scars.
A handsome and upright man, he is ruthless like a demon.
Ling's pain was so painful that he was afraid to die, but he couldn't break free, he grabbed his hair, and tore his scalp with pain.
The diamond mirror was scratched by her and fell to the ground, and the glass mirror from Persia in the Western Regions instantly shattered into splinters, making her feel painful.
A little maid came in with the courage to carry a burden, and her voice trembled and sobbed, "The prince, the princess, the housekeeper of the General's Mansion came just now, saying that the princess left something in the General's Mansion, and Tete sent it over." ”
She held a light-colored silk embroidered burden aloft and knelt on the ground tremblingly.
The crown prince finally set his sights.
He walked over, picked up the burden and put it on the sandalwood round table with red brocade and tassels, and opened the burden with both hands.
In addition to a thick stack of Jiaozi silver tickets on it, there is also a piece of clothing.
Prince Xiao Ce picked up the stack of silver tickets, unfolded it and looked at it, and finally showed a satisfied smile.
"You're a widowed sister-in-law, it's good for you." He glanced at the crown princess, who was sitting on the ground and looked embarrassed, and smiled warmly.
Ling's eyes were full of hatred, and that hatred was almost undisguised, wanting to penetrate the man in front of him.
However, he just took the silver ticket and left laughing.
The maid Linlang hurriedly helped her master up, with some sorrow in her voice, "Miss, you are injured...... Slave and maid, I'm going to look for medicine with you......"
Ling Shi pinched her arm and glared at her with both eyes, "Sister-in-law, do you have something to explain?" ”
"Madame said, "In the morning, when I saw that you did not look right, I knew that you were suffering. But you are so proud that you won't say it. Mrs. also said that the General's Mansion is your confidence and mother's home, even if the uncle is not there, the third master will not sit idly by. She will help you get through the difficulties first, and she will help you collect the rest......"
When Lin Lang said this, Ling's tears couldn't help but flow down.
The grievances and hustle and bustle hidden in the bottom of my heart poured out with the words of the widowed sister-in-law, and I even choked up a little with my voice.
It was the first time in years that she had indulged herself.
Enjoyable!
