When Jianing heard the word "concubine", her heart seemed to be tightly grasped by a big hand, and the pain was suffocating to the extreme.

Before getting married, she could tell herself that she knew what she wanted, and she could easily say that if Xiao Yuchen was dedicated to her, she would definitely not let her down.

But if Xiao Yuchen takes a concubine, or has other women in her heart, she will do what a main room should do, and of course she must have what a main room should have.

However, since getting married, she and Xiao Yuchen have been blending oil in honey, and their relationship has deepened step by step, and even these days, she has never thought about the matter of the concubine. Now that my grandmother mentions the concubine, her heart hurts involuntarily. She knew she was trapped.

At this time, the old Duchess Liguo said again: "You don't have to worry too much, as long as you are a person who talks about the rules, you will not let the concubine give birth to the eldest son." Your mother-in-law is reasonable, and Yuchen is also a good person, and she won't do that kind of thing. ”

Although Jianing felt uncomfortable in her heart, she didn't show it at all, she nodded slightly, "I know." ”

After a while, the doctor came, and Jianing stretched out his hand to let him take the pulse. The doctor put his finger on her wrist, and after a while he switched to the other hand, and then said, "The county lord is in good health and has no lesions. ”

After hearing this, the old Duchess of Liguo asked, "What about the heirs?" ”

Doctor: "The old man said that the county lord has no lesions in his body, so naturally there is no hindrance to childbirth." ”

The old Duchess Liguo was relieved, and after the doctor left, she smiled and said to Jianing: "Doctor Hu is the best doctor in Beijing, and if he says that you are fine, you will definitely be fine." The child's affairs also depend on fate, and now there is no fate that has not arrived. ”

Jianing nodded, "Actually, I'm not in a hurry." ”

.........

Jianing had lunch in the Liguo Mansion before returning home, and when she arrived at Qingfeng Garden, she knew that Tang Shuyi had already returned, and Xiao Huai was not in the mansion, so she went to Shi'an Garden.

Tang Shuyi was talking to Xiao Yuzhu, and when she saw her coming, she immediately beckoned her to sit beside her, and said with a smile: "The weather is getting hotter and hotter, I want to go to the other courtyard outside the city to escape the heat, do you want to go together?" ”

"Sister-in-law, it's fun in the other courtyard, you can go up the mountain to pick fruits, and you can also catch fish." Xiao Yuzhu said temptingly beside him.

The people of Daqian are open, but the nobles who go to Beijing almost do not go up to the mountains to pick fruits and go down to the river to fish. But Tang Shuyi listened to Xiao Yuzhu's words, with a smile on her face, without the slightest intention to scold Xiao Yuzhu.

Jianing suddenly understood that the people of the Dingguo Mansion never cared about the strange eyes of others, nor did they care what others said about them. Shangjing has been rumored that her mother-in-law is jealous and her father-in-law is afraid of guilt, but the two of them are still what to do.

Now that she has been married for half a year and has not been pregnant, as long as her in-laws don't say anything about her, why should she care about other people's eyes? There were some things that she didn't know as long as they didn't come to her face. But whoever dares to say it in her face, she naturally won't let herself suffer.

After thinking about it, she was relaxed, and said with a smile: "Okay, when the time comes, I'll go with you to pick fruits and fish." ”

Xiao Yuzhu grinned and nodded, Tang Shuyi said, "You don't have to worry about Yuchen, there are so many people in the family waiting for you."

Xiao Yuchen still has to go to work in the Hanlin Academy, so naturally he can't follow him to escape the summer. Jianing wasn't worried about him, but the two hadn't been separated for a day since they got married, and they were a little reluctant to think that they wouldn't see each other for several days.

After Xiao Yuchen came back, he was a little reluctant to hear that Jianing was going to escape the summer. However, since the two got married, Jianing has hardly gone out to play, even if he is reluctant, he agrees. The separation is about to be made, and the newlyweds are naturally more affectionate.

On the day of leaving for the other courtyard, it happened that the imperial court was resting, and Xiao Huai and Xiao Yuchen sent them to the other courtyard together. Because they have to live in another courtyard for a month, they have to bring more things, and they have more than a dozen carriages in this line, which is very vast.

The pedestrian carriages on the street, seeing that it was the carriage of the Dingguo Mansion, consciously moved out of the way. First, because Dingguo Gong defends the stability of the country and is respected by the people. Second, because of the status and power of Dingguo Gong, people can't help but avoid it.

However, the carriage of the Dingguo Mansion drove very slowly in the city. Suddenly, a horse-drawn carriage came to him, and there were vendors' stalls on both sides of the street, and the two carriages could not be paralleled.

The coachman stopped the carriage, and the accompanying housekeeper Zhao fixed his eyes and saw that the carriage of the Ming family was opposite. According to respect and humility, it is natural that the Ming family should avoid it, but the other party does not seem to have the intention of avoiding.

For this kind of thing, Steward Zhao didn't need to tell Tang Shuyi and Xiao Huai at all, so he arranged a steward to communicate with the Ming family. The steward walked over quickly and said respectfully to the carriage: "My grandfather and Mrs. Guo are traveling, please move the carriage." ”

Mrs. Mingda, who was sitting in the carriage, lifted the curtain, glanced at the steward and said, "It turned out to be the carriage of the Dingguo Mansion, and the Duchess of the Kingdom and the county lord can be in the car?" ”

The steward frowned and replied, "Yes." ”

"Then I'll go and say hello to the Duchess of Dingguo."

Mrs. Ming said and got out of the car, and the steward could only take her to Tang Shuyi and Xiao Huai's carriage and said, "Madam, Mrs. Ming is here." ”

Tang Shuyi was playing chess with Xiao Huai, holding the hand of the chess piece for a moment, and then lifted the curtain, and saw a woman in her forties standing outside. For Mrs. Mingda's behavior, Tang Shuyi was a little unhappy.

Not to mention that this is the ancient era of strict etiquette and religion, even in the modern era when everyone is equal, when a section-level cadre meets a national ministerial-level cadre, he must respectfully give way.

And this Mrs. Mingda not only didn't let her, but also ran over to speak, so she just looked at Mrs. Mingda lightly and didn't speak. Seeing her attitude, Mrs. Ming was nervous and a little annoyed at the same time, and she took the initiative to come over to talk to her, but this Duchess sat in the carriage and had no intention of getting down. She is the emperor's maternal aunt.

However, she still has some brains, knowing that the emperor is still relying on the Dingguo Mansion, she has to endure no matter how angry she is, so she said with a smile: "It is also fate to meet the Duchess here, I will come to ask the Duchess to say goodbye." ”

Saying that, she blessed herself, Tang Shuyi smiled faintly, and then said: "Mrs. Ming is exempt, it is inconvenient to talk to Mrs. Ming in a hurry today, if there is nothing to do, don't pass by." ”

Mrs. Ming tilted her head to look in the car, she came over to see what Xiao Yuzhu looked like, but what she saw was Xiao Huai's angular side face. She was unwilling, and moved her steps slightly, wanting to look again, but she met Xiao Huai's cold eyes, which frightened her and immediately withdrew her gaze.

"Good..... Good. ”

She immediately turned back to her carriage, went up, and asked the coachman to move it.
