Chapter Twenty-Six: The Day of Tranquility
Qingrong asked, "Where did he go?" ”
Song Yue said: "Lady, don't you forget, Ah Lang's vacation has ended, it's time to go back to duty." She looked at Qingrong's expression and said, "It can be seen that the lady cares too little about Ah Lang on weekdays." ”
Qingrong nodded, but his tone was neither salty nor light, "Maybe." After a while, I called Yun Niang to come so that I could arrange some new errands for those maids and servants. ”
Song Yue should be, "Yes." ”
Xue Shao's affairs in this courtyard were all in charge of the Lu family for her before, but now that she is married, she will be handed over to her, so she took advantage of the past few days to reorganize and arrange everything inside and outside this Lide Hall.
Xue Shao was not at home all day today, and he didn't come back until dinner. Qingrong felt a little awkward when she saw him again, but Xue Shao seemed to see through what she was thinking, walked towards her, and held her hand, "What kind of food to eat tonight?" ”
There were still people standing in the room, and Qingrong didn't break away, always taking care of his face. She smiled faintly and said, "Today, I don't have much appetite, so I asked someone to steam the fish." ”
Xue Shao nodded and sat down with Qingrong.
Xue Shao asked, "You... Are you uncomfortable? ”
Qingrong just took a sip of tea, and when she heard this, she choked, and Song Yue hurriedly stepped forward to comfort her. Qingrong couldn't help but glare at Xue Shao, "No." "I just drank tea all day to moisten my throat!
Xue Shao lowered his head and smiled, "That's fine." ”
Qingrong diverted the conversation, "How many days off have you taken, have you been busy lately?" ”
This is to the point, in a few days, he may really have to be busy, and he only found him today. He said: "The war with the Turks is stalemate, although we have won a few battles, it will take some time for the division to return to the DPRK. ”
Qingrong nodded, but did not comment. She said: "Then when you come back to the door the day after tomorrow, you won't be free?" "On the sixth day or so after getting married, it is time to return to Ning, that is, to return to his parents' home.
"Yes." This is the first time he has gone to the Lu family as Qingrong's husband, how can he not be empty? No matter how busy you are, you should go.
Qingrong snorted, which was a response.
Thinking of what happened last night, Qingrong was still a little angry in his heart, so he didn't want to deal with Xue Shao more at night, and he was afraid that he would pull himself to nonsense again. Xue Shao saw that people were even more cold, and knew that he had offended people yesterday.
The two of them were lying on the couch, Qingrong still facing away from him. Xue Shao opened his mouth and said, "Qingrong, are you angry?" ”
Qingrong wanted to pretend that she was asleep, but she still answered him, she closed her eyes and said in a muffled voice: "No." ”
Xue Shao smiled, knowing that Qingrong was a person, and sometimes what she said was different from what she thought in her heart. "I know you, you're angry."
"I know you still ask? Deliberately? ”
Xue Shao faced her, he wouldn't coax people, he was quick to admit his mistakes, he said in a low voice: "I didn't mean to, forgive me." ”
Qingrong said: "Then why are you?" ”
Xue Shao turned over, put his hands under his head, lay down flat, and his tone was a little ruffian, "You know, a person who always can't eat enough, if he can eat meat, he will naturally eat it to a great extent." ”
Qingrong had already turned around when she heard this, she looked at him with some shame, Xue Shao looked at her like this, and said word by word: "Only then can you have fun." ”
Xue Shao smiled as he spoke, Qingrong closed his eyes, and decided to ignore him, "Rest." ”
He hummed, seeing Qingrong facing him, but he was reluctant to close his eyes. After her breathing gradually became lighter, Xue Shao fell asleep.
Before Qingrong returned to the door, the Lu family also specially asked the Su family to pick out a few generous gifts for Qingrong to bring, and Xue Shao also accompanied Qingrong back as he said.
Wang and Lu Wenzhong knew that Qingrong had returned to the door, and they were already waiting at home. Xue Shao was the first time to come back to see his father-in-law and mother-in-law, and it was difficult for him to be a person who fought bloodily on the battlefield, and he couldn't help but get nervous. Sitting on the seat, he was also like a man's back, afraid that he would do something bad, which would make Lu Wenzhong and the Wang family dissatisfied.
Wang looked at Xue Shao and smiled: "Changxuan has a calm temperament, and he looks like us." ”
Qingrong pursed his lips and snickered, but Xue Shao coughed twice weakly, he smiled and said, "Compared with Qingrong, the son-in-law still has a lot of shortcomings. ”
These words made Lu Wenzhong and Wang feel comfortable, and Wang said: "The two of you are easy to come together, just stay longer, and accompany me to talk to your grandfather." ”
Lu Wenzhong said: "Eh, if Changxuan has official business, how can he stay for a long time?" ”
Xue Shao hurriedly said: "There is nothing important today, it doesn't matter, Qingrong thinks about his parents very much, and he should stay for more time." ”
Qingrong glanced at Xue Shao in some surprise, and seeing his nervous and cautious demeanor, he couldn't help but purse his lips and snicker, "It's just A-Niang." ”
After the meal, Wang mentioned that he had recently gotten a few good prescriptions, and he heard that it was a real person's prescription, and it was very effective to recuperate his body, so he asked Qingrong to take it with her, leaving Lu Wenzhong and Xue Shao at the table.
Qingrong is easy to come back, and there is naturally a lot to say between mother and daughter. The two walked in the courtyard, Wang held Qingrong and asked, "Then how does Xue Shao treat you?" ”
Qingrong smiled and nodded, his tone was not salty or light, "It's good." ”
Wang nodded with satisfaction, she could probably see that when eating, Xue Shao's eyes were on Qingrong, handing over the dishes, and she was worried that she was just doing kung fu for her and Lu Wenzhong. Now it seems that she is too worried.
But the Wang family has lived for most of her life, how can she not understand her daughter, she said: "Since people treat you well, why do you still ignore it?" Don't you know, between this husband and wife, there must be a relationship? ”
Qingrong was seen through for a moment, and she was a little embarrassed, "Auntie, how can I ignore it?" I should have done it, I did it all, and there was nothing wrong with it. It's kind of respectful to him, isn't that enough? ”
Wang smiled and sighed, and said to Qingrong: "I still don't feel anything about you?" He noticed it, but he pretended not to know and did not want to respond. ”
"This marriage is not pure, manpower and coincidence account for most of it. I didn't ask for it at the beginning, how deep the affection with him is, as long as I can go on like this. ”
Wang nodded and said, "That's fine, I know that you are a child with your own ideas, and A-Niang won't say much." I think it's good, it's good, but who knows if one day I'll lose my mind and can't see the truth clearly? Your grandfather usually says that everything is inconclusive, today is like this, tomorrow may be like this, who knows? ”
Qingrong knew what the Wang family meant, she smiled clearly, and said, "I understand what A-Niang means, I know, you don't have to worry." ”
Wang patted her hand and smiled.
"By the way, how is Qingrong in the palace these days?"
Speaking of this, Wang couldn't help but sigh, "Alas, you haven't been here these days, and I don't want your newlywed to worry, so let people inform you." News in the palace, Siniang returned to the palace, but only two days later, Concubine Xian had a miscarriage. ”
Abortion! Qingrong stopped, shocked, and couldn't believe that this was true, "A-Niang? The kid? ”
Wang shook his head regretfully, "It's only been a long time, and the tire is not stable, how can I keep it?" ”
Qingrong's face also became solemn, but she didn't expect Liu Yuniang to have such twists and turns since she was pregnant and gave birth smoothly. I also heard Wang's words: "This pregnancy is already hard, and with this toss, I am afraid that Concubine Xian's body will not be able to bear it." ”
"What about Siniang?"
"I don't know yet, but I haven't heard of anything."
Qingrong asked again: "This... Was it an accident or a man-made? ”
Wang shook his head, "I don't know about this." ”
Qingrong lowered her eyebrows and was silent for a moment, and said: "A-Niang, this marriage is the intention of Her Royal Highness the Queen, and now that everything is going well, it stands to reason that I should also go to the palace to meet me." The daughter also wants to go to see Siniang and Concubine Xian, otherwise she can't rest assured, what does A-Niang think? ”
Wang walked forward, and after thinking about it, she also felt that this matter was okay, she nodded, "It's okay for you to go and take a look." ”
Wang and Qingrong talked for a long time, and then went back to the room to get the recipe, and this time the sun was halfway over. When the two of them went back, they found that Lu Wenzhong and Xue Shao were no longer in the room, and Qingrong asked about the next person.
"Ah Lang and his uncle went to the study."
Den? Qingrong was surprised in her heart, she didn't think that Grandpa and Xue Shao could have any common topics. Seeing this, the Wang family was also very happy, and wanted to keep them at home for dinner, Qingrong naturally did not refuse.
Xu is Xue Shao and Lu Wenzhong got along well in the afternoon, and at dinner, he was no longer as restrained as in the morning, and the atmosphere between the four of them was more harmonious and natural.
The sun was setting, and Qingrong and Xue Shao were also preparing to leave.
Xue Shao was dragged by Lu Wenzhong to eat some wine, and he was a little drunk, so he took the carriage with Qingrong. He asked, "What did your mother-in-law say to you?" You look a little absent-minded at dinner. ”
He understood her thoughts, shook his head clearly, and said, "Things in the palace." She didn't want to say more, in addition to feeling that she had nothing to do with Xue Shao, she also felt that in the back court, Xue Shao couldn't help much after all.
The atmosphere in the car was a little stagnant, Qingrong diverted the conversation and asked, "What are you doing in the study with Grandpa this afternoon?" Talked about it for so long? ”
"Play chess." There was a smug look on his face, "My father-in-law said that I have good chess skills." ”
Qingrong was surprised, "You can play chess?" ”
Xue Shao nodded. Qingrong didn't know that Xue Shao could play chess, and he played very well.
Xue Shao stared at her, as if he had seen through her, and said lightly: "There are many things about me that you don't know." ”
Qingrong's face stiffened for a moment, but this was also the case, she looked at Xue Shao's side face, and she didn't seem to know much about him.
After a long time, she just hummed, and then didn't say anything, thinking about what she heard about the afternoon.
The Xue family didn't talk about those red tapes, and the Lu family didn't ask Qingrong to go to her room every day to stay in the morning and dusk and wait for her daily life. The eldest sister-in-law Su and the second sister-in-law Qin each have children to take care of, so they don't go often, and Qingrong feels that she is also lazy, so she just goes every other day. She also heard from the people in the house that only the third sister-in-law, Yang, went to greet the Lu family for a day.
On two occasions, Qingrong also met Yang. After chatting a few times, the Yang family was very close to Qingrong, and came to Lide Hall to talk to Qingrong for a few days.
Hearing Qingrong say that he wanted to go to Lingbao Temple on the fifteenth day to offer incense, Yang's eyes also lit up, "You are serious... Want to invite me along? ”
Qingrong is funny, she always feels that this Yang family is a few years older than her, but her heart is still like a little lady. "Of course it's true, I see that the third sister-in-law is idle on weekdays, so why don't you go with me?"
