Chapter 800
Chapter 800
Everyone in Xu Hanlin's family knew that the third master, Xu Ci, had met a nobleman.The nobleman was generous, and casually gave him an ancient fan worth thousands of gold.The fan bones belonged to Concubine Xiang, and the fan surface was an authentic work by Tang Bohu, with a suet white jade pendant hanging on it.It's just that the nobleman is not from the Yan Kingdom, but the prince of another country.The third master will be in the spring next year, and everyone in the Xu family has speculated that he will go to another country to be an official.
After a few days, one day Xu Ci returned home with a strange expression: he couldn't help but feel sad, I don't know whether he was happy or sad.Back in the study room, the two house maids helped him change his clothes, and carefully asked: "I am meeting friends today, do you think you are very happy?"
Xu Ci immediately opened his eyes and smiled: "How do you know! Your master today..." He suddenly closed his mouth.
The maid hurriedly asked: "What's the matter today, master?"
Xu Ci waved his hand: "Forget it, let's talk about it in a few days."
The servant girl said angrily: "My lord is not kind. It's a trick to whet people's appetites."
Xu Ci sighed: "It's not that I'm trying to trick you, it's..." He sighed again.Nai urged the two of them to hurry up.
Seeing his ugly face, the maid looked at each other and hurriedly changed his clothes.Xu Ci coughed, picked up his feet and left.The maid shouted, "Where are you going?"
"See you, master."
Xu Ci went to see his father, Xu Hanlin, and the two discussed behind closed doors for less than half an hour, and then ordered Mrs. Xu to come.Then the three discussed in secret until late at night.
The next day, Mrs. Xu came to Yao's courtyard with the help of a woman. Yao put down her work and greeted her.Mrs. Xu looked her up and down.Yao Shi Nahan: "What's wrong with Madam?"
Mrs. Xu sighed, and said in a low voice, "Go in and talk."
Then Yao Shi helped her into the room and sat down, and the servants and Mrs. Xu's wife escaped out together.Mrs. Xu closed her eyes and did not move.Yao Shi didn't dare to ask any questions, but just stood by.After being silent for a cup of tea, Mrs. Xu opened her eyes and said, "Sit down." Yao's heart beat like a drum, and she bowed her head slightly and thanked her.Mrs. Xu said: "This mansion is supported by men. If a man can't succeed in his career, everything will fail."
Yao replied in a low voice: "Yes. Men are gods, and daughters-in-law obey the third master in everything."
Mrs. Xu looked at her and said: "There is something today that needs to make you feel wronged, but it can make your husband's career and the Xu family prosperous. You are willing."
Yao shi thought for a moment and said: "As long as it is not something that hurts the law of nature, as a wife, I should naturally share the worries for the third master. I just don't know what grievances the wife is talking about?"
Mrs. Xu looked at her meeting again, and gritted her teeth: "A few days ago, the youngest won the favor of a nobleman at the literary meeting, and he is the son of the Shu Kingdom."
Mrs. Yao frowned slightly: "The prince of Shu?" Mrs. Xu nodded. "What is the prince of Shu going to Beijing for at this time?"
Mrs. Xu smiled and said, "Of course it's to visit the virtuous."
"Then it will be around next spring." Yao Shi said, "Even if someone from the royal family of Shu comes here, it should be another prince."
Mrs. Xu was a little displeased: "He is indeed the eldest son of Shu, and he values Ci'er very much." Mrs. Yao still frowned, and answered "Yes".Mrs. Xu was silent for a moment, then suddenly said softly, "The prince still wants to betroth a 17-year-old princess to Ci'er."
Yao suddenly raised his head and stared straight at Mrs. Xu.Mrs. Xu nodded.Yao Shi's body trembled slightly, suddenly he felt a blur in front of his eyes, so he was hanging on the chair and couldn't sit still.Mrs. Xu let out a long sigh and remained silent.After a long time, Yao shi took a few deep breaths and tried her best not to cry: "Where is the child?"
Mrs. Xu breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Don't worry, no one can stop you except the princess."
Yao frowned: "Madam, what do you mean? Could it be that I have reconciled with the third master?"
Mrs. Xu shook her head slowly, and said earnestly: "Can you leave your second brother? He is not your life?"
Yao Shi was surprised: "Does the third master want me to be his aunt?"
Mrs. Xu said softly again: "Ci'er will be a county horse, so his status will naturally be high. Your father is a seventh-rank Lingtai Lang."
Mrs. Yao stared at her indifferently for a long time, but Mrs. Xu just remained calm.Yao sneered: "I don't agree. I want to reconcile with the third master and establish a female household. I will take the child away."
Mrs. Xu immediately said: "Second brother is the seed of the Xu family."
Mrs. Yao thought for a moment, then said solemnly: "My wife is also a woman. Dare I ask my wife, how many years can my son live under the princess's hands." Mrs. Xu's complexion moved slightly.With tears in Yao's eyes, "I took him away. His surname is still Xu, he is still the son of the third master, he can still study well, and in the future he will be elected as an official and he can still glorify the Xu family. He will not be infected with smallpox. It will fall into the water, it will not fall off the horse, and it will not meet Huazi on the road."
Mrs. Xu said kindly: "Good boy, Ci'er and I have also thought of this. In the future, he will go to the Shu Kingdom to be an official, and you, Hongxiao, the eldest brother and the second brother will all stay in Beijing. Except for the slight difference in names, the rest It's all the same as before. The princess is in Shu, so naturally he can't control the affairs of Beijing. Besides, there is me." Nai took Yao's hand and choked up, "My son, I really can't do anything. You know, It's not easy to win a country's heir, Ci'er's future is important!" Yao's eyelids moved, and he bowed his head in silence.Mrs. Xu sighed, stood up and said, "Think about it for yourself."
Yao suddenly said: "Shall I become a nun and take my brother to the nunnery?"
"Impossible!" Mrs. Xu said with a serious face, "The Xu family is a Hanlin family, how can they let their children grow up in the nunnery!"
Yao slapped the case and stood up: "I will not be a concubine!"
"Then you go by yourself, and the second brother stays."
Yao shi hissed, "Brother is my lifeblood!"
Mrs. Xu glanced at her a few times: "Anyway, you decide for yourself." After saying that, she withdrew and left.Just as he stepped out of the door, Yao wailed bitterly when he heard behind him.
Mrs. Xu went back to her room and discussed with Cui's mother what had just been said.Cui's mother thought for a long time after hearing this, and said: "Madam, I feel that the third grandma is resourceful, so let's not talk about it, she may not accept her fate."
Mrs. Xu said: "I know. I have ordered the kitchen to deliver meals to their yard from now on. Her girl will not have to go out."
Cui's mother was secretly happy, and she couldn't help but smile on her face: "It turns out that my wife's heart is like a mirror." Mrs. Xu smiled slightly.
From this day on, the Yao family and the people in her hospital are not allowed to leave the hospital.The maidservant was terrified, but Yao Shi said calmly: "It's okay, I just do things with peace of mind." Then she buried her head in her work.
A few days later, Mama Cui came to see Mrs. Yao with a smile all over her face.Yao shi just coaxed her son, and didn't even glance at her out of the corner of his eyes.Mother Cui stepped forward and saluted: "I have seen the third grandma." Yao Shi ignored her.Cui's mother came closer, pulling her eyebrows and eyes to the back of her head, like an old vixen. "Tell the third grandma a piece of news. Just now, your friend, the sister of the regent princess, came to see you."
Yao still remained silent.But the servant girl couldn't help asking: "Aunt Chen is here? Why didn't you come in?"
Cui's mother proudly said: "The doctor told her that the third grandma was ill and could easily infect others. She was very sorry when she left."
Yao shi could be regarded as turning his head, with a strange expression: "You lied to Sister Chen that I have an infectious disease!"
Cui's mother shook her head and said, "That's right! She's gone, and I don't think she will come again in half a year in October."
Yao shi couldn't help laughing: "It's nothing more than coaxing others, it's nothing more than coaxing her~~, why did you coax her?" Nai Yingying waved her hand, "Goodbye, Mama Cui!"
Cui's mother came to see her jokes, but she was very happy when she didn't think about it, so she felt a little uncomfortable, and said: "My servant advises grandma, it's better to resign to fate earlier."
Yao shi said leisurely: "Summer insects are beyond words." Mama Cui snorted heavily, flung her sleeves and left.
The servant girl hurriedly surrounded her and said, "Grandma!"
Yao's face was full of smiles: "Anyone who wants to go with me can start packing."
Everyone was surprised: "Grandma?!"
Yao shi murmured: "According to Director Qin's words... the day is coming soon."
"What's coming soon?"
"Princess Regent and Little World Daughter."
She has a good memory.Five days later, Chen Ruijin took her daughter back to the capital, and Jia Cong had been waiting outside Shili Pavilion.Seeing a dark green military uniform hugging a four-horse carriage from a distance, he knew that his wife and children were coming, so he urged the horse to meet him.The leader of Chen Ruijin's guard simply ordered people to stop the horses and chariots.
Jia Cong ran to the car and jumped off the horse, shouting: "Daughter-in-law~~baby~~"
When the curtain of the car was raised, a chubby female doll was wearing a red spring shirt with a fire unicorn embroidered on it, her hair was too short to be braided, and she stood firmly at the car door with her round eyes wide open. Help the carriage.Jia Cong's nose immediately became sour.The girl raised her face and shouted loudly: "Daddy~~" Jia Cong's legs softened, so that he could give a big gift to his daughter.Seeing that he didn't respond, the child yelled again, "Daddy~~"
Jia Cong wanted to cry and laugh at the same time, he knelt down in front of his daughter on one knee, and slowly held her armpits with both hands.I didn't dare to squeeze her hard for fear of hurting her, but this chick is still not young. After brewing for a long time, I gently lifted the child, holding the little buttocks and back in my arms carefully, and gently brushed her chin on the top of her head: "Baby~ ~"
The girl doll ignored him, turned to look in the car: "Mom~~"
Chen Ruijin also stood at the door of the car at some point.Jia Cong was still kneeling and didn't get up. He hugged the child and looked up at his wife and smiled.Chen Ruijin also looked back and smiled.The two smiled at each other for a while, and the girl suddenly pointed at the horse behind Jia Cong and shouted: "Riding a horse~~"
Just then Jia Cong stood up, smiling all over his face: "My baby wants to ride a horse~~ Daddy will take you to ride a horse!" Turning around, he looked at Chen Ruijin and blinked.Chen Ruijin glanced at him with a slight smile and did not object.Jia Cong let out a haha, and stepped on the horse with her daughter in the stirrups. "Riding a horse~~ Miao Miao riding a horse~~" Chen Ruijin jumped up from the ground without stepping on the stirrups, and sat next to Jia Cong's back.Jia Cong suddenly felt his heart beat several beats faster. "Daughter-in-law, I found that I have the feeling of first love again."
Chen Ruijin pursed his lips and smiled, and said softly, "Let's go."
The daughter yelled, and her limbs moved wildly.The poor Jia Cong has also dealt with Lin Qu in the past two years. Based on how she twisted, one arm firmly wrapped around the girl's fat waist, and the other hand shook the reins: "Drive—drive—"
The horse broke into a gallop.The female doll shouted louder and louder: "Riding a horse~~riding a horse~~" Jia Cong laughed.
This meeting is in the spring of April, and the wind is warm and the sun is peaceful.The wild flowers in the outskirts of Beijing are full of greenery, and the grass is fragrant. Jia Cong suddenly felt that his whole body was filled from head to toe, and he squinted his eyes in comfort: "I have no regrets in this life."
When the family returned to Rongguo Mansion, they first went to Rongxi Hall to meet Jia Amnesty.Jia She was overjoyed when he saw his granddaughter: "Miao Miao has grown up better."
Jia Cong said with a smile: "It's the time when she grows like a madman. Daddy, you're so good to watch, I'm sure she looks the same every day." He patted his head, "I forgot." He untied two purses from his waist and put them on on the case.Picking up one, took out something from it and handed it to Chen Ruijin.
Chen Ruijin took it over and took a look. It was a big sapphire seal, and the seal was a phoenix.Turn it over and look at the printed text, and there are six words "Yan Regent Princess Chen" engraved.Jia Cong said: "Since this one is blue, let's count it as Qingluan. You use it first. I have prepared the seed material. In a few years, we will replace it with Hetian red jade."
Chen Ruijin smiled slightly, weighed the jade seal in his hand, and put it in his arms without using the purse: "Okay."
Jia Cong opened the second purse and took out another jade seal.It is also of sapphire, and the seal is Qilin Xiangyun.Nai handed it to her daughter in a serious manner: "Miao Miao, this is Miao Miao's."
Miao Miao's claws were too small to grasp such a big seal, so Jia Cong only let her grab the unicorn's head.Seeing that her father was still holding the other end of the jade seal and not letting go, Miao Miao wailed twice and shook the unicorn's head vigorously.Jia Cong said in surprise: "The little girl has such strong hands! Do you have the self-consciousness of a two-year-old baby?"
Chen Ruijin said: "Almost three years old."
"If you're not three years old, you're two years old." Jia Cong said enthusiastically, "What a healthy baby!"
Seeing that he still didn't let go, Miao Miao yelled again.Chen Ruijin reached out and hooked Qilin's body, motioning Jia Cong to let go.Jia Cong's finger took advantage of the situation and slid across the back of his daughter-in-law's hand.Chen Ruijin glared at him, and looked at his daughter: "Miao Miao, will you please mother?" Miao Miao really let go!
Jia Cong said sourly: "Didn't she be asked to look at my big photos and oil portraits every day..."
Chen Ruijin ignored him, and turned over her daughter's seal to read the seal, which read "the daughter of the Regent of Yan".Looking closely at Qilin again, he nodded: "The knife skills are good."
Jia Cong said: "This master sculptor is a master of stunt arts and crafts, the best in the world."
Chen Ruijin also took this seal into his arms, and said to his daughter: "Mother, keep it for you first. In a few years, I will let your father replace it with a dragon."
Jia Cong smiled and was about to speak when Jia Amnesty coughed twice.Jia Cong hurriedly said: "At that time, I will have to change the seal of my father, Duke Rong."
Jia She snorted, "You don't have to wait a few years. Didn't you turn the Ciguo Mansion into a museum?"
"Yes!"
"When you were a child, what kind of three-story treasure house did you promise to build for your old man to house antiques?" Jia She said with a snort, "Now that you're older, you have a lot of antiques, but you should throw them all in the museum."
"Ah... that..." You still remember it... Jia Cong scratched his head and thought for a while, "Our country is vast and rich in cultural relics, and I will definitely build one for you later, father, don't worry! Ah! It's too late now."
Jia She snorted again: "There's no need to waste that effort. Anyway, I have a lot of antiques."
"Ah?!" Then why are you shouting!
Instead, Chen Ruijin smiled and said, "Jia Cong, what's the name of the museum in Shanguo Mansion?"
"It's going to be called Yanjing Museum."
Jia She glared at him: "It's boring! You only use these dry names. What Yanjing Museum, Dajiala Museum."
Chen Ruijin said: "Why don't you bother the master to get one, or just use the name of the master, and you have built the Treasure Pavilion for the master, how about?"
Jia She immediately put on a satisfied expression.Jia Cong let out an "ouch" and rubbed the back of his head: "I know why God created women."
