Sang Fuyue nodded immediately, "It should be." ”
Not to mention that the old general of Sang Fuyue and his wife went to talk about it, but said that after a few days of traveling, Shen Tingjun finally rushed to the city gate on this day and entered the capital first.
When he returned to the Hou Mansion, the old lady had already washed up and was ready to rest.
Today's weather, Minzhou is already very hot, but after a few days of warmth in the capital, it is cold again. First, it rained twice in succession, and today there was a sandstorm.
The weather was hot and cold, and the old lady couldn't stand it, and she told her before her son left, and when she came back, she would tell her everything she had to tell her...... The old lady was thinking about something, and her body became more and more uncomfortable, so she lay down early. It's just that she hasn't slept yet, but she is wearing glasses and holding a book to read carefully, while estimating the time and distance in her heart, thinking about when her eldest son will be able to return to Beijing.
Just when the old lady was pondering, she saw Mama Cui walking in with a smile. Mama Cui took a jacket for her and put it on, and said softly, "The person on the door said that Master Hou is back, and now he has gone back to wash, and he will come to see you later." ”
"What? Da Lang is back? ”
The old lady took off her glasses and stopped reading the book. She let Mama Cui serve her and put on her jacket, just leaning on the big pillow like this, waiting for Shen Tingjun to come over.
"That kid has been gone for a long time this time, it's been nearly a month. He hasn't been in Beijing for a month, and he hasn't told me what he's going to do, but I'll have to interrogate him when he comes over this time. ”
Mama Cui smiled and said, "Master Hou specified that he was busy with business." ”
The old lady whispered to Mama Cui and bit her ears, "It's not a business, Da Lang can tell me before he leaves Beijing, this time it is purely a private trip." He said he had gone to see the girl, and he had come back to bring me good news. ”
"Yo, then the designation is the family affair of the Hou Ye."
The old lady also felt that Bacheng was the matter, and the corners of her mouth curled, but she pretended to be cold and left it down. Look again, I'm going to hear the rebel tell me what he's up to. ”
When Shen Tingjun came over, his hair was still wet, and the old lady still wanted to take Qiao's, but when she saw her son's appearance, she was very distressed. "There's such a big storm and dust outside, you can't wait for your hair to dry out a little before you come over? You kid, you're in a hurry at this moment. If you get cold and hot again, you will have to worry about you when you turn around. ”
Shen Tingjun greeted the old lady, and then sat down in front of the old lady's bed. He didn't stop the old lady's chatter, but when the old lady was going to continue to nag, he tucked the quilt for the old lady and shouted "Mother" by the way. ”
The old lady immediately shut up, and looked at her eldest son, who was standing near, and her voice was as soft as coaxing a child. "What's wrong with you, Dalang? But what do you have to say to your mother? ”
Shen Tingjun bowed slightly, "Mother, my son is also a father." ”
I heard the old lady suddenly ask in disbelief from the inner room, "What did you say?" ”
Then, the old lady seemed to be back to eighteen, and her voice was full of anger and scary, but the anger in that voice was also real. "Da Lang, tell me again, what are you doing? You kid, you can't wake up yet, right? Are you a dad? If you marry a daughter-in-law, you will be a father! Whose girl are you ruining? ”
The old lady was aggressive, but the angry voice was gradually suppressed.
But even though the old lady controlled the volume in the second half, Mama Cui and Shuangli, who were standing outside to serve, still heard what they should hear and what they shouldn't hear.
Not to mention how wonderful the expressions on the faces of the two are, how unbelievable they are. As a subordinate and a loyal servant, Shuangli immediately walked out of the door and pushed aside all the maids and women who were guarding outside.
And she herself was guarding the door, and she didn't dare to let people come near this side anymore.
The news brought by Hou Ye is really too numb!
Why did you suddenly become a father?
Didn't Master Hou say that he already had a crush, and he still wanted to take the old lady to propose marriage in the second half of the year? Now that you have a favorite girl, you still have ...... Bastard, will the girl who was favored by Hou Ye before marry her?
Another thought flashed through his mind, and Shuang Li's eyes widened, thinking that there was no other possibility for this matter.
Think about Hou Ye's insistence on proposing marriage in the second half of the year, and then think about Hou Ye's eyes full of the girl he likes, and in the past few months, he has sent things over there. So, could it be, could it be that the girl hadn't even entered the door, and she had already ......
Shuangli recited a Buddha sentence in his heart, and he didn't dare to think nonsense anymore.
And Cui Mama and Shuangli in the house thought of one place, and couldn't help frowning at this time.
Hou Ye has never done such an unreliable thing, how can he be so disproportionate in this matter.
The woman is pregnant before marriage, and she still enters the Hou Mansion with the child, which is not good to say.
The old lady in the room also thought of this, but she was a mother, and she saw that her child came with a filter. What's more, Shen Tingjun really has no character, even the most picky scholars can't find fault with him.
Since it is not the son's pot, it is designated as the woman's pot.
The old lady felt that she couldn't talk about Da Lang's family affairs, and she was forced to deal with it helplessly. And the girl's girl, who was forced to marry because she was pregnant, is really a scheming girl with a debatable character.
The old lady had anger on her face.
"My poor man," ...... old lady almost burst into tears.
As soon as Shen Tingjun saw his mother's appearance, he knew that his mother's designation was a misunderstanding.
He wiped the old lady's tears, chuckled and said, "Mother, things are not what you think. ”
The old lady's tears couldn't fall, and she couldn't help but slap her son, "It's not what I thought, what is going on, you should tell me quickly." Stinky boy, you know to look at your mother's jokes. You don't know that your mother is angry about you. ”
"It's mine, it's not, it's me who can't live with my mother." Shen Tingjun said so, so he talked about the matter between him and Sang Xuanyue.
The old lady felt inexplicable at first, didn't she talk about the matter between Da Lang and the girl, why did she talk about twisting the moon? But listening to it, the old lady's fist hardened, and she couldn't help but hammer her son's arm twice.
The old lady was furious, "I'll just say, why is that girl who is twisting the moon more and more reluctant to come to the house to see my old woman." Is my old woman too chatty, too annoying? It was still Zhou's incident that really made the moon twist in his heart, and he even held a grudge against the Hou Mansion. I couldn't sleep for several nights tossing and turning over this. When the Zhou family was sent to the family temple, I felt comfortable in my heart, and I felt that I had an explanation for the moon. But after the moon, he still rarely came to the house, and after seeing me, he talked a lot less than before. ”
The old lady pointed at Shen Tingjun with a trembling finger, "Behind all this, there is still you bastard making trouble." You, you, Dalang, how can you do such a foolish thing. That girl is not easy enough, and you make things worse. ”
Shen Tingjun's throat slid up and down twice, and he let the old lady lecture him, without saying a word to defend himself.
When the old lady saw her son's appearance, she recalled that when her son and the girl were in the same room before, was there anything wrong with the two parties...... The conclusion was that there was none.
Her eldest son has always been thoughtful, and it is naturally impossible for anything to be done on the surface, so that everyone can find out. can be shown as if nothing happened on the surface, but behind the scenes, there is no certain kind of subterfuge used, which makes people a good girl and has to commit to him!
Thinking of this, the old lady couldn't help but pat her son with annoyance, "You are really confused." ”
"Yes, I'm confused, it's all my son's fault for this, it's my son's obsession with his heart, and he can't help himself."
"How dare you say it! You stinky boy, you kneel down in the ancestral hall for me. Kneel for three days and three nights, if I don't let you come out, you will always repent to the spiritual position of your ancestors. ”
Shen Tingjun replied "yes", then stood up, and was really ready to go to the ancestral hall. When the old lady saw this, she couldn't bear it again. And she also remembered the crucial question, "Is the child born in the moon?" ”
Shen Tingjun looked back, "Yes, he was born on the fifth day of April, six pounds and six taels, and he is a boy." Yue'er gave him a nickname, called He'er. ”
The old lady's heart was about to melt, she pulled her son back again, and said angrily: "You don't tell me about such a big thing." You are a rebel, you shouldn't hide this matter from your mother from beginning to end, if your mother knew earlier that she was pregnant with your child, your mother would have gone to see her. And my grandson, it's been almost twenty days now, and I haven't even looked at it. You are a rebel, you threw them in Minzhou, how can you bear it. ”
The old lady chattered, and suddenly thought of what he said before about getting married. A flash of inspiration flashed in her mind, so she asked, "What you want to marry has always been the girl who twists the moon, because you are worried that she will propose and marry, and it will disturb her to raise a baby, so you postponed the family affair to the second half of the year, right?" You have a heart for this matter, but marriage is not something that can be achieved in a simple sentence or two. and the Sang family's relatives, have you discussed with the moon, should the girl who twist the moon? ”
He didn't discuss it with Sang Fuyue, but he made it clear to Sang Fuyue what he meant.
As soon as Shen Tingjun said this, the old lady's temperament came up again.
"I used to see that you kid was also steady and ruthless, why did you repeatedly make mistakes in this matter. If you want to marry the girl of the Sang family, you must get the approval of the Sang family. But in the end, it was the moon that married you, shouldn't you talk to her about this? Think about her being a girl's family, and she gave birth to a son without a name or a penny, isn't she afraid in her heart? You should have told her your thoughts earlier, so that she would have a bottom in her heart and be more stable. ”
Shen Tingjun didn't make a sound.
It was indeed his negligence.
But he also thought that no matter how much he said, it couldn't become reality, and it just made her wait hard day by day.
It was a bad day.
Xu is hopeless, but he ushered in a miracle, which can surprise her even more.
Shen Tingjun frowned and thought about things, could it really be that he did something wrong?
The old lady was already completely annoyed with her son, and immediately spread his hand and asked him to kneel to the ancestors.
Shen Tingjun was also obedient, so he really walked out of Heyan Hall, and then went to the ancestral hall.
When the old lady heard Mama Cui say that her son had gone to the ancestral hall, she didn't go down the breath in her heart.
She told Mama Cui what Shen Tingjun said to her before. The expression on Cui's face became indescribable. But then I thought that no matter how this thing was done, everything was going in a good direction after all. At least the Hou Ye is willing to get married, and even has a son.
When the old lady heard Mama Cui's persuasion, she couldn't help but sigh softly, "So, the Zhou family has done a good thing." ”
Is it a good thing?
I can barely say that.
It's just that Zhou's heart is indeed too dark, and the means are too dirty!
If it weren't for the fact that Hou Ye had already thought about Twisting the Moon and saved her in time, I wouldn't have thought about it now, and the girl who twisted the Moon would have entered the Su Palace's Mansion as a concubine, and she might have been trampled to death by those beauties in the Palace.
Thinking about it like this, it seems that Zhou's evil is unforgivable, and he really shouldn't have relented for a while and took her down the mountain again.
As soon as the old lady said this, Mama Cui said, "Then you don't feel too sorry for Young Master Rong'an." Rong An didn't eat tea and rice at that time, and he lost weight in just a few days. This is not only distressing for you to look at, but also a slave, and you can't bear it when you look at it. ”
"But now we can't continue to let the Zhou family be in this mansion." The old lady spoke out about the difficulties in her heart. "In the end, the Hou Mansion owes the girl who twisted the moon first, and the girl didn't care about the previous suspicions, and now she gave birth to Da Lang's child. That girl is benevolent and righteous, but we can't take her benevolence for granted. When it's time to explain to that girl, you still have to give it. Only now this thing ...... Do you want to send the Zhou family back to the temple? ”
That designation is not possible.
After all, Rong An has already remembered, if his uncle sends his mother away because he marries a bride, the child is afraid that he will resent the moon from the bottom of his heart.
But if the Zhou family is left in the house, not to mention that the moon is not happy, it is the old lady herself, she thinks about Zhou's various calculations about the moon, and thinks that it will be too difficult for her to let the moon endure all the dislikes, and force the moon to laugh and live in the same room with the Zhou family every day.
This didn't work out, that didn't work out, the old lady tossed and turned, and she didn't fall asleep all night.
When Shen Tingyi and Shen Tinglan came to greet the old lady the next day, they were a little surprised when they saw the old lady's blue and black appearance.
Shen Tinglan asked, "Mother, what's wrong with you, didn't you rest at night?" I heard someone say that the eldest brother came back last night, did the eldest brother make you angry? ”
Shen Tingyi also asked, "Did the eldest brother go to the Yamen, why didn't I see the eldest brother when I came over?" ”
The old lady wore a handkerchief on her head, which was dipped in a potion, and applied to her forehead to clear her mind.
After putting on two handkerchiefs, the old lady felt that her head was not too painful, and her spirit was slightly better.
She sat up with the support of her two sons, and then said unhurriedly, "Your eldest brother is back, and he didn't go to the court today, kneeling in the ancestral hall." San Lang, you go and call your eldest brother in person, my mother has something to say. ”
