Chapter 237 The Simplest Happiness
Chapter 237 The Simplest Happiness
After leaving the imperial city completely, there was already a carriage waiting outside. Luo Lan had already taken off the eunuch's clothes, put on a dark hooded cloak, and stood in front of the carriage, hesitating for a moment.
Xiao Mu urged again, "Madam, it's getting late."
Luo Lan raised his eyes and looked into the distance, "Are we going out of the city?"
"Yes." Xiao Mu said respectfully, "Jiuye has already arranged the next location for the empress. As for the Donggong Monk Palace Bureau, my subordinates will deal with the aftermath of the mallow. You don't have to worry about it."
Luo Lan frowned slightly, "Can you take me to Wu's house?" Since Shuang'er was born prematurely, she has never had the chance to see her again, and she doesn't know what the little girl's condition is now, but her body is still holding up. Thinking about it, her mother's heart ached.
"No!" Xiao Mu shook his head resolutely, "Jiu Ye's plan has not yet reached the point where you and the princess will recognize each other. If you come this far ahead of time, all previous efforts will be wasted." Seeing Luo Lan's insistence, Xiao Mu immediately knelt on the ground, " Empress, I understand your desire to see your daughter, but please also think about Master Jiu. You should understand that in order to set up this situation, Master Jiu has already committed the crime of deceiving the emperor. The Su family will all risk their lives."
"You're right." Luo Lanzheng nodded emphatically, "Every move of his chess must be strictly controlled and strictly executed, because the calculation is too precise, and every point is just in place. Once it is overdone, it will brew. The culprit. I was too selfish. I only wanted to see my daughter, but I put his words behind me. When I see him another day, I will personally apologize to him. "
"Humble post doesn't mean that, I just want to remind you, although you have been reborn now, it is not absolute freedom. The life and death of hundreds of members of the Luo family and the Su family depend on your words and deeds." , So, please be more careful and careful."
"it is good."
Although Xiao Mu and the others are only Su Yan's subordinates, in her eyes, they are lifesavers, so she never puts airs in front of Xiao Mu and the others just because they are just running errands, and treats them equally.
Without further delay, Luo Lan picked up the curtain and got into the carriage, Xiao Mu drove the carriage for her personally, as long as the signboard of the Duke's Mansion was displayed when passing the city gate, the city guards would not dare to randomly search the carriage, nor would they dare to embarrass them.

Cining Palace.
"Your Majesty, Your Highness the Crown Prince, Your Highness the Xian Wang has been kneeling outside for more than an hour." The eunuch of the Compassionate Ning Palace said in a low voice.
A sneer appeared on the corner of He Lianjin's mouth, and he remained silent, waiting for Emperor Yonglong to speak.
"You guys made him kneel?" Emperor Yonglong was listening to the imperial physician's report on the queen mother's situation, but was interrupted by the eunuch, and he raised his head.
"I don't dare." The eunuch trembled in fright, and hurriedly knelt on the ground.
"Since he kneeled voluntarily, then he can do whatever he wants." Emperor Yonglong waved his hand absently, seemingly loose, but in fact cracks began to appear in the string of violence.
The daughter was murdered and gave birth prematurely, and almost killed her. The birth mother was stabbed by Xiao Mingxi's brainless woman with a pair of scissors, and she fell unconscious.But anyone who knows something interesting, shouldn't judge the situation and either help him find a way to solve the problem, or avoid him far away?The eldest son, who had always been brainless, knew that he was stuck in the house and could not come out, but the third son was very good, and offered to send him to his door.
Emperor Yonglong has a temper. Every time he is so upset that his head is as big as a fight, he will make fun of whichever son comes to the door first, including the former He Lianjin. They either scolded him bloody, or kicked him a few times and threw him out.
But the difference is that no matter whether Emperor Yonglong is beating or scolding, He Lianjin never cares about it, and he will forget about his foolish appearance when he goes out. Get into a rage.
But it won’t work if you change to other princes. Once they are beaten or scolded, they feel that their weight in the father’s heart must have decreased a lot, and they will react in two ways: either, from now on, they will be obedient, and Emperor Yonglong will say what he says. What, for example, Wei Wang He Lianxun; or, take notes of the beatings and scoldings that Emperor Yonglong gave him, thinking about waiting for one day to stand up and ask for it back together, such as the virtuous king He Lianyu.
He Lianjin stood up, personally poured a cup of tea and handed it to the father-in-law who sent the message, "The virtuous king is sincere. After thinking about it, I also know that my adoptive mother is so wicked that I can't easily atone for her sin. Looking at it like this, I'm afraid I will have to kneel until dark. Go and give him a cup." Tea quenches thirst, the sky is so hot, if he is sent back to the palace due to heatstroke after a while, then his hard work for these few hours will be in vain."
The father-in-law took the tea, he didn't dare to comment on his master's words, and walked outside with the tea in his hand.
He Lianyu was about to stand up when the father-in-law said, "His Royal Highness."
He Lianyu didn't say a word, but looked up at him.
The father-in-law walked up to him and handed over the tea bowl, "His Royal Highness ordered, since you are here to kneel for your adoptive mother, you should quench your thirst first, lest you be sent back to the palace due to heat stroke, and all your previous efforts will be in vain."
When He Lianyu heard it, the top of his head was about to smoke. The reason why he came to the Palace of Compassion and Peace was not to atone for his adoptive mother, but to find Emperor Yonglong for something important. However, Emperor Yonglong never saw him, so he had to kneel outside and wait. .
He Lianjin is so good, he gave him a high hat as soon as he came, and how can he refute his words to this point?Didn't he get the reputation of being unfilial by apologizing to his adoptive mother?
Raising his head, he stretched out his hand to take the teacup from his father-in-law's hand. He Lianyu brought it to his lips, the more he thought about it, the more he felt unwilling, his eyes turned cold, and he smashed the teacup with his hands.
The sound of shattering porcelain shards spread into the hall.
Emperor Yonglong's eyelids twitched, and he glared at the father-in-law who delivered the tea, "Why, the virtuous king has nothing to do, so he went to the Compassionate Ning Palace and got angry?"
"Your Majesty, Your Highness the Xian Wang, he...he knocked it over by accident."
Emperor Yonglong snorted coldly, "I don't care if he is careless or on purpose, he will either get out of here, or kneel on the porcelain he smashed. When will I be happy, and when will I let him get up again."
The father-in-law immediately passed the original words of Emperor Yonglong to He Lianyu's ears.
He Lianyu's face was gloomy and ugly, "Father really said that?"
"My ancestor, Princess Yongchun was born prematurely, and the queen mother was seriously injured and unconscious. Don't you think it's messy enough? The emperor is angry now. If you don't want to be implicated, you should leave quickly!"
He Lianyu was stunned for a moment, "Yongchun gave birth prematurely?" He has been busy for the past two days, so he really doesn't know about He Lian Shuang's affairs, no wonder his father refused to see him.
I'm also glad that my father didn't summon him, otherwise he would be scolded so that smoke would come out of his head.
Gathering his mind, He Lianyu patted the folds of his clothes, "Okay, you go in and tell me that the king will come to him again when you have time."
"His Royal Highness, go slowly."
Of course He Lianjin was not reconciled to being let go so easily, but he understood Emperor Yonglong's intentions better.
His father is most jealous of his family dominance, even if he is Luo Lan's biological son, and He Lianyu is currently the only opponent who can contend with him. Unless He Lianyu really committed a heinous crime, there is no way for Emperor Yonglong Step on him to the end, he wants to use He Lianyu to check and balance the current situation, this is Yu Gong.
In private, He Lianyu just lost his adoptive mother. If he, as a father, stepped on his son's head again, he would be too indifferent and inhumane, and it would not be nice to spread it, so he just said angry words, in fact He didn't want to do anything to He Lianyu at all.
Standing up, He Lianjin said: "Father, there are still matters to be dealt with in the East Palace, so I will take my leave first."
Emperor Yonglong gave him a deep look.
From He Lianjin's eyebrows and eyes, one can vaguely see a bit of Lan'er's shadow. Of course, this is just a simple yearning for that person, but it is definitely not the reason why he made He Lianjin the prince.
His son was all in disguise in the early years. He always knew that the reason why he didn't expose it was to see what He Lianjin was going to do. Later, he discovered that the son's private behaviors that did not match his personality on the surface, It shocked him greatly.
He couldn't understand when a dandy prince who didn't even want to go to the Shang's study learned such shrewd and cruel methods. Although he hated many methods, he had to admit that this is what an emperor should look like.
Indecision and indecision are doomed to fail to defend the country.
"Father?" He Lianjin was very uncomfortable when he saw him.
Emperor Yonglong came back to his senses in an instant, "Since there is something to do, then you should go back first, the Queen Mother will be guarding here."
-
When He Lianjin returned to the East Palace, Xu Han told him that Mallow had left.
He Lianjin frowned, "Going away?"
"Yeah." Xu Han nodded, "It was Yao Shanggong who came to find the concubine's important person in person. She said that the Shanggong Bureau was going to rush out a batch of goods recently, and mallow's emerald emerald technique was the most proficient, so she was transferred back to help , wait until the work is over for a while before sending people over."
He Lianjin rubbed his forehead, "Forget it, since you're going back, let her go back. Such a simple person is not suitable for participating in too many palace fights. Bringing her to the East Palace may not be a kind of protection for her. It might end up hurting her instead."
"Is Your Highness really willing to let her go?" Xu Han said, "To tell you the truth, I really like her wit and intelligence!"
He Lianjin said: "If Han'er likes it, I will find you a better one in the future. As for Mallow, since Shang Gongju can't do without her so much, then let her go back to where she should be! The purpose of getting the East Palace is to not let her be poisoned by Concubine Xiao Huanggui. Now that Concubine Xiao Huanggui is dead, there is no point in keeping her. Since she is a rare craftsman, we will put her in the most suitable position superior."
"Well, the concubine will follow His Highness's arrangement." Xu Han nodded.
-
Guogong Mansion.
The matter of He Lian Shuang came to an end for the time being, Yun Chuwei did not go to Wu's house again, after all, she still had two little ones to take care of, and she was very worried about leaving such a small child to be watched alone by the servants, so as long as it wasn't If there is any special event, I will personally accompany you.
After the full moon banquet, Yunzheng and Mrs. Zheng are going to take little Ali back.
But Yun Chuwei refused to say anything, "Father, it's rare for you to bring your wife and little Ari here, so just stay a little longer. I haven't taken my wife out for a stroll these two days because of the princess's affairs." Shopping, it’s rare that I’m free today, why don’t you allow me, I’ll take my wife out for a walk, and buy something for little Ali, how about it?”
In fact, Yun Zheng was quite reluctant to part with Yun Chuwei, seeing her pleading so much, he could only nod in response, "Well, don't wander around for too long, come back earlier."
"Well, I see." Yun Chu smiled sweetly, "Thank you, Dad."
After returning to the room, Yun Chuwei explained to Aunt Han, "Auntie will stay at the house today to watch over Xiaoba and Xiaoshi. I don't feel relieved if the maids are allowed to come."
Aunt Han was puzzled, "Madam is going out?"
"Yes." Yun Chu nodded with a smile, "My wife has been here for so many days and I don't have time to accompany her. It's rare that I don't have anything to do today."
Aunt Han understood, "Madam, just go, the old slave will take good care of the two little masters."
"I'm sorry." After Yun Chuwei finished speaking, she was about to walk outside.
"Ma'am." Aunt Han called her again behind her.
"what happened?"
"Meizi is quite skilled, madam, take her with you, just in case."
Yun Chu secretly praised her for being thoughtful, "Well, I'll take her there later." Anyway, Mei Zi and Mrs. Zheng know each other, so when they go out, they don't need to be bound by the relationship between master and servant, just treat it as if they haven't seen each other for a long time It’s not easy for relatives to get together, and it’s good for everyone to have fun.
Taking the plums and calling out to Mrs. Zheng, Yun Chuwei took A Li's little hand and walked out the door. The carriage was ready, and this one was big, so it would be no problem to take three or one small.
Seeing that it was Xiao Ji who was driving the car, Yun Chuwei didn't say anything, anyway, every time she went out alone, Master Jiu arranged it like this, and she was used to it.
"Madam, madam, please." Xiao Ji personally picked out the curtains for several people.
Yun Chuwei hugged little A Li and sat on it first, followed by Zheng Shi, and finally Meizi.
Yun Chuwei hugged little Ali, and sat on a large chair with Zheng Shi, while Meizi consciously pulled Xiao Wuzi to sit. After coming to the Duke's Mansion for so many years, especially under the guidance of Aunt Han, she and other All the little maids have changed their rules. Wherever they go, they think that they are just slaves, and they can't laugh and play with their masters at will. Masters and servants must be distinguished.
Mrs. Zheng glanced at Meizi, a little strange, "You little girl, when you were in Xinghua Village, didn't you like to chatter the most, why are you just so sullen now, who messed with you?"
Mei Zi raised her head and said with a blushing face, "Before, it was the servant who was ignorant and offended the wife. I hope your lord will have a lot."
Zheng's eyes widened all of a sudden, and she looked at Yun Chuwei in disbelief, "Could it be that this girl was transferred?"
Yun Chuwei smiled helplessly, "You must have been taught by Aunt Han, right?"
Mei Zi blushed a little, "Auntie Han is right, the maidservant didn't understand the rules before, and only cared about having fun with the girl, so why would she have so many scruples? It's really outrageous."
"What about now?"
"Nowadays, slaves don't dare to act like they used to." Mei Zi was telling the truth. Even if it wasn't for Yan Guige, the maids and women in Tai Furen's courtyard would all behave in a proper way. The master joked and even ate together, but there really wasn't one.Especially after Aunt Han came, Mei Zi felt even more ashamed when she saw the awe-inspiring aura in her whole body, "Madam, this servant has already made up her mind to change her mind and start a new life."
Yun Chu let out a slight chuckle, "I used to say that I couldn't read big characters, but now I have been studying in the school for a few months, and your small mouth is getting better at speaking."
Meizi chuckled, "Thank you Ma'am for your compliment."
"Okay!" Yun Chuwei stretched out his hand to poke her on the head, "I didn't know you yet, when I saw the little doll, I was so happy, talking about the rules, but in fact, I wanted to hug the little doll a long time ago." Li, am I guessing wrong?"
Meizi bit her lower lip, feeling a little shy, "I know I can't hide anything from Madam."
Yun Chu raised his eyebrows slightly, "Who made you stay by my side for so many years? Of course I know you well."
After all, he hugged little Ali from the seat.
Meizi hurriedly reached out to catch him.
Little A Li looked at Mei Zi curiously, and seeing that she was wearing a bead flower on her head, she reached out to take it, Mei Zi didn't mind, she just took off the bead flower and handed it to him, "Does A Li want this?"
When Meizi was talking, she put one hand around Ali's back lightly, in case he lost his footing and fell backward.
Ah Li held the bead flower in her hand and played with it for a while, then opened her mouth to bite.
"Hey hey!" Yun Chuwei snatched Zhuhua away in a hurry, and deliberately acted fiercely towards him, "Who told you this is edible?"
Little Ali stared blankly at Yun Chuwei, seeing her yelling at herself, her small mouth was flattened, feeling unspeakably aggrieved, she turned her head away and didn't look at her again.
Yun Chuwei immediately changed his smiling face and called him, "Little Ali."
Ali continued to turn her head to one side, ignoring her.
Yun Chuwei shouted again, "Little Ali, my sister has candy, do you want it?"
Ali still ignored her.
Yun Chu looked at Mei Zi slightly, "Since little Ali doesn't want delicious food, the three of us will go eat later and leave him alone in the carriage."
When Xiao Ali heard this, she felt aggrieved again and stomped her feet.
Yun Chu was slightly frightened: "If you dare to cry, my sister will really not take you down after a while."
Little A Li shook her head, "A Li doesn't cry." Wiping her tears while speaking, her nose twitched.
Yun Chu looked at Zheng Shi slightly in surprise, "I forced him to say a complete sentence." Although the enunciation is not very clear, it is already very good. As long as you can take the first step to speak a sentence, You can learn it slowly in the future.
Yun Chuwei likes to strike while the iron is hot, so he hugged little A Li to sit on his lap, and asked him, "What does A Li like to eat? You can name a few, and my sister will buy you a few in a while, okay?"
After hearing this, Ah Li stretched out her small palm, Yun Chuwei thought he was going to count, but unexpectedly, he stretched out his small palm to Yun Chuwei to make a gesture, "So many."
"So much?" Yun Chu laughed a little, and took his little hand, "How much is it?"
A Li shook his head, he didn't know, but he knew that he wanted to eat a lot of delicious food.
"Is there any more?" Yun Chu asked slightly.
Ali stretched out another little hand.
Yun Chuwei couldn't help but cheer up, "This little guy." If he could grow up in the same big courtyard with Little Ba and Little Eleven, he would definitely be smarter in the future.
Yun Chuwei didn't mean to look down on Xinghua Village to look down on Yunzheng and Zheng, but felt that if A Li grew up in Xinghua Village, a lot of knowledge would be blocked by the mountains. She hoped that A Li could have a better life. environment for growth and learning.
However, when she went to see Yunzheng before going out, she raised a little fur, Yunzheng's attitude was already very firm, he would not move to the capital.
Yun Chu slightly understood Yun Zheng's persistence, but what about little Ali?Will he definitely like Dashan?Maybe when he grows up, he will also yearn for the world beyond the mountain.
This is a real headache.
"Ma'am, we're on the street." Mei Zi's joyful voice rang in his ears, and Yun Chuwei immediately came back to his senses. "Oh, you guys go first, I'll come with Ali in my arms."
After getting off the carriage, Xiao Ji found a place to park the carriage and followed them not too far or too close.
Yun Chuwei kept holding Xiao Ali, his hands were small and soft, and he couldn't bear to pull him.
The purpose of the few people coming out was to go shopping, so they didn't specify which shops to go to, they walked all the way, and went in to see if there were practical ones.
In front of Cai's shop, little A Li stood still.
Yun Chuwei didn't realize it at first, but after walking two steps forward, she realized that the little Ali who was being held by her hadn't moved. She turned around and saw him drooling over the pastry inside. Shaking his head, nodding his little head, "You boy, we have so many pastries in our house, haven't you gotten tired of eating these past few days?"
Little Ali clicked her lips twice, then smiled silly at Yunchu.
Yun Chuwei still didn't understand that he just smelled the scent of cakes for a while, so he got greedy, so he dragged him in, and there was a kind-faced old man selling cakes inside, Yun Chuwei glanced at the freshly baked cakes , "Old man, how do you sell this pastry?"
The old man said kindly, "Fifty Wen a catty on the far left, and eighty Wen on this side."
Yun Chuwei glanced again, there was more behind, she pointed, "What about this one?"
The old man said: "This one is a bit expensive. The one on the left is one tael per catty, and the one on the right is three taels per catty."
Yun Chuwei understood, thinking that these were prepared for wealthy families, Cai's shop is very famous in the capital, Yun Chuwei often listened to the little maids in the mansion chatting and longed for the monthly payment, so he must Go to Cai's shop to buy some kind of pastry to taste enough, otherwise you will always think about it and drool.
Speaking of which, although she has been in the capital for several years, she has never eaten anything from Cai's shop.
Glancing at little A Li, Yun Chu asked with a smile, "Which one does A Li want to eat?"
Ah Li pointed at the fifty-cent Ruyi Cake.
Yun Chuwei asked him, "Why do you want this?"
Ah Li didn't speak. When his mother took him to the street before, every time he bought pastries, he would hear the word "Wen", a few "Wen", but today he heard the word "Two". I understand what it means, but I vaguely feel that it will cost a lot of money, so I dare not ask for that expensive pastry.
Yun Chuwei pointed to the Qiqiao snacks that cost three taels of silver a catty, "Don't you like this?" Little Ali nodded, then shook her head immediately.
He couldn't say it, and Yun Chuwei couldn't understand it either, so he squeezed his little face, "Little guy, what exactly are you trying to express?"
At this time, Mrs. Zheng and Meizi happened to arrive. Mrs. Zheng came in from the outside, and after hearing what Yun Chuwei said, she pulled little Ali aside, tugged at Yun Chuwei's sleeve, approached her and whispered: "Let's Let's go, this pastry is too expensive."
When she was at her mother's house, the most expensive cakes she had eaten were only fifty Wen a catty. Here, a catty of cakes sells for three taels of silver?The elders who go out to work can only spend this amount of money at most a month.Think about it, how much hard work was spent in exchange for sweat money to buy a catty of pastries like this, it is extravagant.
Yun Chuwei didn't know how to explain the price of goods in the capital to her, so he just smiled and said, "It's okay, we don't buy too much, just buy one catty, one catty will be all right?"
Mrs. Zheng still disagreed, so she bought flour for three liang of silver and went home, so she could make a lot of pastries by herself.
The head of the family knows that salt and rice are expensive. Today's Zheng family wants to spend every penny in the most reasonable place. She will not be stingy with little Ali. She would rather take good care of him without food or clothing, but she would never Not so extravagant and wasteful.
"But look, madam, little Ali likes Qiqiao snacks very much. He finally came to the capital, so he can't just go back without trying everything? What a pity!"
Mrs. Zheng looked at her son and frowned, "Well, one catty is one catty, but I will pay for it myself."
Yun Chuwei knew he couldn't persuade her, so she quickly gave Meizi a wink.
Meizi understood immediately, and came in to hold Zheng's arm, "Madam, Miss Jiao Yan is working as a shopkeeper on the street ahead, do you want to go and see?"
Zheng Shi was a little surprised, "She is not far ahead?"
"Yeah." Mei Zi nodded, "A few days ago Miss Jiao Yan was still thinking about you, wife, but now she is looking forward to it, why don't we choose a date instead of bumping into the sun, and go over now?"
"But, Ah Li is still here...Hey, Meizi, don't drag me!"
Mei Zi said: "Don't worry, Ah Li will be fine with Madam."
Before Zheng could react, she was dragged far away by Meizi.
Now, Yun Chuwei can safely buy Qiqiao snacks for little Ari. The auspicious fruit and plum blossom cakes of the same price each brought a catty, and asked the old man to keep one piece for each, and pack the rest in oil paper specially wrapped for dim sum. it is good.
Yun Chuwei handed a piece of Qiqiao dim sum to little Ali, he took a bite of it lightly, and said cheerfully: "Xiangxiang."
"Xiangxiang, eat more." Yun Chuwei took out a handkerchief to wipe the pastry crumbs from the corner of his mouth, and dragged him out the door.
Meizi took Zheng Shi to look for Jiao Yan, and Yun Chuwei could wander around without any scruples. Anyway, she was not afraid of tiring herself with the addition of Xiao Ji who was carrying things.
After walking around for a while, Yun Chuwei bought toys and other miscellaneous things for little Ah Li, but none of the ones that were seriously given away, Xiao Ji found it very strange, "How did Madam buy these things?"
Yun Chu said bluntly: "I don't like the fabrics outside. Instead of spending the unjust money to buy bad ones as gifts, it's better to go back to the house and get a few high-quality ones." Anyway, those fabrics are all because of Su. Yan's military merits were bestowed, and each horse was extremely luxurious, and when the time came, just tell Zheng that it was bought casually outside, and she would not be able to recognize what it was.In addition, there are high-quality japonica rice and others, all of which are sent together by someone pulling a cart.
After shopping around, the things he bought were all over the place, Yun Chu slightly raised his head to look, this place is close to Wu's house, since we are here, we can't stay here, let alone his good sister, It should be all the more so.
Yun Chuwei quickly went to buy some supplements for confinement and took them, and took little Ali to the gate. When the concierge saw Mrs. Qingluan, his attitude was quite enthusiastic, "Madam, please wait a moment, Rong Xiao Go in Tongbing."
Yun Chu nodded slightly, "Okay."
After a while, the concierge came back, bowed his body and smiled warmly, "Please come inside, madam."
Yun Chu slightly nodded at him, "I'm sorry."
When they came to Helian Shuangyuan, they heard chatter and laughter from afar, and went in to see, but Xu Han was inside.
"What a coincidence, is sister Han here?"
Xu Han turned around and saw her holding the little one who was walking wobbly. The little one was holding the gnawed pastry with different gaps in one hand. The little look was so cute that Xu Han couldn't help but stood up and walked over to measure it carefully. He glanced at A Li, "Hey, sister Wei, when did you have such a cute son?"
"Bah, bah, bah!" Yun Chu looked at her slightly, "What son, this is my younger brother."
"Brother?" Xu Han's face was full of surprise, "This is strange, where did you get your brother from?"
"Sister Han doesn't know." Yun Chuwei explained, "I used to have an adoptive father when I was in the countryside, and this is the baby of my adoptive father's family."
Xu Han still felt unbelievable, "Then how much will he do?"
"This is the first baby."
"Ah?" Helian Shuang exclaimed inside, "No way, how old is your adoptive father, Wei Wei?"
Yun Chuwei was so confused by these two people that he rolled his eyes, "Where are you thinking? My adoptive father was my father's subordinate in the army. After adopting me, he never married a wife. Later, when I was a little over 14 years old, At that time, he felt that it was inconvenient for an old man to take care of me, so he married a stepmother who was only two years older than me, in order to hope that two people of similar age could get along in harmony."
Xu Han immediately respected her adoptive father, "I never imagined that Wei Wei had such an experience in her early years, but your adoptive father is very respectable." Guo Yun Chuwei is a girl who just returned home, but Xu Han is a person who doesn't like to inquire about other people's privacy, so she has never explored Yun Chuwei's past. After becoming a good friend and sister, she will not Take the initiative to ask, after all, their relationship does not need those things to maintain.
"Why do I feel so pitiful for Wei Wei, who was sent out at such a young age." He Lian Shuang became sad, and if she wanted to say who among the three sisters had the best life, it would probably be her. Her father and queen mother love her dearly, even the queen mother, who doesn't like queens, also likes her very much. It can be said that she is loved by thousands of people. Compared with her sister-in-law and Wei Wei, she is really lucky.
The biggest misfortune is probably not being able to get to know these two people earlier. As for the extermination of the family, the abolition of the queen mother, and the premature birth of the child that almost killed her, Helian Shuang didn't think it was misfortune. On the contrary, it was because After these things happened, she became more and more aware of who was the friend worthy of her deep friendship. What's more, her mother was not dead, her parents were still in good condition, the child was born safely, and she was still alive. These are her great fortunes.
It was a great fortune to meet such a good friend and sister as Yun Chuwei.
Thinking of the part between himself and Huang Miaoyu, He Lian shook his head, feeling very uncomfortable.
"Do you think I'm not doing well now? What's so pitiful?" Yun Chu turned around slightly, raised his eyebrows, and looked at He Lian Shuang, "Besides, if fate had arranged it this way, maybe the three of us We might not be able to get together!" If the original owner hadn't been sent out, how would she be able to live in? The original owner is really not very good-tempered, and the possibility of becoming sisters with the two in front of her is almost zero. .
"That's right."
Xu Han nodded in agreement, and pulled Xiao Ali to kiss her.
He Lianshuang's words were right. During these days, she hoped that the child would almost have hallucinations. She didn't feel it before, but seeing that Yun Chuwei and He Lianshuang were accompanied by little ones Then, she was alone and alone, which made her feel sad at once, so she complained to He Lianjin one night, and He Lianjin directly understood that she was complaining that he was not good enough, so he used one night to prove to her that he was Whether it will work or not, Xu Han didn't have the nerve to go out the next day, and rolled her eyes when she saw He Lianjin. She just casually said that they haven't had children for so long, so what does that mean?
He Lianjin was not polite, "If not, where did the child come from?"
Xu Han was blushed by what he said, and he touched his belly quietly, looking forward, waiting for a while, if there is no movement after a month, she will, she... what else can she do, isn't it just to continue to be bullied .
Seeing Xu Han's unusual enthusiasm today, Yun Chuwei gave He Lianshuang a wink, but He Lianshuang didn't speak, just covered his mouth and smiled.
When Xu Han heard this, he glared at the two of them, "You both have babies with you, so why don't I imagine it?"
Yun Chuwei was speechless, "How long have you been married, why are you in a hurry?"
"Can I not be in a hurry?" Xu Han curled his lips, "If you don't give birth again, the children of your two families will be brought up in the future, and I will have to stay in the house all day to accompany me, and I will worry about where I want to go. How can I play with you?"
"That's easy." Yun Chu winked slightly, "Don't give birth to it?"
Xu Han pretended to punch Yun Chu slightly, "You little hoof, why don't you speak indiscriminately?"
Yun Chu smiled and avoided, she just didn't dare to say it, if He Lianjin knew how painful it is for a woman to give birth, she would definitely regret it.
However, women in this era rely on offspring to live. If you can give birth to a son, no one can shake your status. Tolerate you, a poor commander, occupying the position of wife?Besides, He Lianjin is going to be the emperor in the future. Once Xu Han can't have children and can't spread the branches and leaves for the royal family, there will be more and more women in the harem. The relationship between their husband and wife will be due to these women sooner or later. And fragmented.
Therefore, saying "not having a baby" and "regretting having a baby" are meaningless words. It's okay for my sisters to joke around, but if they spread the word, they should be scolded.
Probably because she felt that Xu Han had no malicious intentions, Xiao Ali did not reject her, and the two of them had a great time.
Yun Chuwei sat over to talk to He Lianshuang and asked her about her recovery in the past few days.
Of course, Helian Shuang can agree on everything.In fact, it's really good. There are so many people serving her, so I can't turn her into something wrong.
There is just one thing that He Lian Shuang is more worried about, "Wei Wei, our little girl is so small, every time the nanny is breastfeeding, I look at her, her little mouth has no strength at all, I am very worried that she will not Will..." Everyone said that she would live seven months but not eight months, but her little girl was only eight months old.
"Don't talk nonsense!" Yun Chu looked at her slightly, "You have to think about it this way, even if your little girl is full moon, she is only as big as when she was nine months in your belly, so she is small and has no strength. It's all normal, the doctors should know how to take care of it, right?"
"Yeah." He Lian nodded, "Take care of her according to the method you said, and dare not let her see the wind."
"That's right, after careful care for these two months, she will be as big as a full-term newborn, princess, you should take a rest, don't think about things all day long, think so much about what to do, you are not enough now Are you happy?"
Helian blushed a little.It can be seen that Angkor Angkor likes this daughter very much, and he ran to see it almost as soon as he was free, but because the doctor told him not to touch it casually, so he could only watch from the sidelines, but the face was clearly full of satisfaction. With a happy smile, when Helian Shuang saw him smiling, his heart felt sweet.
It turns out that being married and having children as a mother is such a happy thing. When her father bestowed the marriage on her, she still felt that her life might be over like this. She never thought that she would find happiness and support for the rest of her life. Yes, there is no grandeur, only two people complement each other, understand and tolerate each other, that kind of feeling, she can't express it, all in all, there is only one feeling, warmth.

Bringing little A Li back from Wu's house, Zheng Shi and Mei Zi had already returned to the Duke's mansion first, Yun Chuwei handed little A Li into Zheng Shi's hands, and then went to the outer courtyard to meet Yun Zheng, and heard him say that the private school had been closed. After the completion of the project, the children in several villages in that area are eagerly looking forward to the early departure of the teacher, so that they can go to school earlier.
Yun Chuwei was very relieved, "Father, the teachers have been invited a long time ago. There are four in total. When you leave, take them back with you."
Yun Zheng was a little surprised, "Did you invite me so early?"
Yun Chuwei murmured in his heart, Lu Xiuyuan sponsored 20 taels of silver, so naturally he had to do everything that should be done, otherwise it would be a waste of his efforts.
Thinking of Lu Xiuyuan, I didn't seem to see him at the full moon banquet. What is this person up to lately?
(End of this chapter)
After leaving the imperial city completely, there was already a carriage waiting outside. Luo Lan had already taken off the eunuch's clothes, put on a dark hooded cloak, and stood in front of the carriage, hesitating for a moment.
Xiao Mu urged again, "Madam, it's getting late."
Luo Lan raised his eyes and looked into the distance, "Are we going out of the city?"
"Yes." Xiao Mu said respectfully, "Jiuye has already arranged the next location for the empress. As for the Donggong Monk Palace Bureau, my subordinates will deal with the aftermath of the mallow. You don't have to worry about it."
Luo Lan frowned slightly, "Can you take me to Wu's house?" Since Shuang'er was born prematurely, she has never had the chance to see her again, and she doesn't know what the little girl's condition is now, but her body is still holding up. Thinking about it, her mother's heart ached.
"No!" Xiao Mu shook his head resolutely, "Jiu Ye's plan has not yet reached the point where you and the princess will recognize each other. If you come this far ahead of time, all previous efforts will be wasted." Seeing Luo Lan's insistence, Xiao Mu immediately knelt on the ground, " Empress, I understand your desire to see your daughter, but please also think about Master Jiu. You should understand that in order to set up this situation, Master Jiu has already committed the crime of deceiving the emperor. The Su family will all risk their lives."
"You're right." Luo Lanzheng nodded emphatically, "Every move of his chess must be strictly controlled and strictly executed, because the calculation is too precise, and every point is just in place. Once it is overdone, it will brew. The culprit. I was too selfish. I only wanted to see my daughter, but I put his words behind me. When I see him another day, I will personally apologize to him. "
"Humble post doesn't mean that, I just want to remind you, although you have been reborn now, it is not absolute freedom. The life and death of hundreds of members of the Luo family and the Su family depend on your words and deeds." , So, please be more careful and careful."
"it is good."
Although Xiao Mu and the others are only Su Yan's subordinates, in her eyes, they are lifesavers, so she never puts airs in front of Xiao Mu and the others just because they are just running errands, and treats them equally.
Without further delay, Luo Lan picked up the curtain and got into the carriage, Xiao Mu drove the carriage for her personally, as long as the signboard of the Duke's Mansion was displayed when passing the city gate, the city guards would not dare to randomly search the carriage, nor would they dare to embarrass them.

Cining Palace.
"Your Majesty, Your Highness the Crown Prince, Your Highness the Xian Wang has been kneeling outside for more than an hour." The eunuch of the Compassionate Ning Palace said in a low voice.
A sneer appeared on the corner of He Lianjin's mouth, and he remained silent, waiting for Emperor Yonglong to speak.
"You guys made him kneel?" Emperor Yonglong was listening to the imperial physician's report on the queen mother's situation, but was interrupted by the eunuch, and he raised his head.
"I don't dare." The eunuch trembled in fright, and hurriedly knelt on the ground.
"Since he kneeled voluntarily, then he can do whatever he wants." Emperor Yonglong waved his hand absently, seemingly loose, but in fact cracks began to appear in the string of violence.
The daughter was murdered and gave birth prematurely, and almost killed her. The birth mother was stabbed by Xiao Mingxi's brainless woman with a pair of scissors, and she fell unconscious.But anyone who knows something interesting, shouldn't judge the situation and either help him find a way to solve the problem, or avoid him far away?The eldest son, who had always been brainless, knew that he was stuck in the house and could not come out, but the third son was very good, and offered to send him to his door.
Emperor Yonglong has a temper. Every time he is so upset that his head is as big as a fight, he will make fun of whichever son comes to the door first, including the former He Lianjin. They either scolded him bloody, or kicked him a few times and threw him out.
But the difference is that no matter whether Emperor Yonglong is beating or scolding, He Lianjin never cares about it, and he will forget about his foolish appearance when he goes out. Get into a rage.
But it won’t work if you change to other princes. Once they are beaten or scolded, they feel that their weight in the father’s heart must have decreased a lot, and they will react in two ways: either, from now on, they will be obedient, and Emperor Yonglong will say what he says. What, for example, Wei Wang He Lianxun; or, take notes of the beatings and scoldings that Emperor Yonglong gave him, thinking about waiting for one day to stand up and ask for it back together, such as the virtuous king He Lianyu.
He Lianjin stood up, personally poured a cup of tea and handed it to the father-in-law who sent the message, "The virtuous king is sincere. After thinking about it, I also know that my adoptive mother is so wicked that I can't easily atone for her sin. Looking at it like this, I'm afraid I will have to kneel until dark. Go and give him a cup." Tea quenches thirst, the sky is so hot, if he is sent back to the palace due to heatstroke after a while, then his hard work for these few hours will be in vain."
The father-in-law took the tea, he didn't dare to comment on his master's words, and walked outside with the tea in his hand.
He Lianyu was about to stand up when the father-in-law said, "His Royal Highness."
He Lianyu didn't say a word, but looked up at him.
The father-in-law walked up to him and handed over the tea bowl, "His Royal Highness ordered, since you are here to kneel for your adoptive mother, you should quench your thirst first, lest you be sent back to the palace due to heat stroke, and all your previous efforts will be in vain."
When He Lianyu heard it, the top of his head was about to smoke. The reason why he came to the Palace of Compassion and Peace was not to atone for his adoptive mother, but to find Emperor Yonglong for something important. However, Emperor Yonglong never saw him, so he had to kneel outside and wait. .
He Lianjin is so good, he gave him a high hat as soon as he came, and how can he refute his words to this point?Didn't he get the reputation of being unfilial by apologizing to his adoptive mother?
Raising his head, he stretched out his hand to take the teacup from his father-in-law's hand. He Lianyu brought it to his lips, the more he thought about it, the more he felt unwilling, his eyes turned cold, and he smashed the teacup with his hands.
The sound of shattering porcelain shards spread into the hall.
Emperor Yonglong's eyelids twitched, and he glared at the father-in-law who delivered the tea, "Why, the virtuous king has nothing to do, so he went to the Compassionate Ning Palace and got angry?"
"Your Majesty, Your Highness the Xian Wang, he...he knocked it over by accident."
Emperor Yonglong snorted coldly, "I don't care if he is careless or on purpose, he will either get out of here, or kneel on the porcelain he smashed. When will I be happy, and when will I let him get up again."
The father-in-law immediately passed the original words of Emperor Yonglong to He Lianyu's ears.
He Lianyu's face was gloomy and ugly, "Father really said that?"
"My ancestor, Princess Yongchun was born prematurely, and the queen mother was seriously injured and unconscious. Don't you think it's messy enough? The emperor is angry now. If you don't want to be implicated, you should leave quickly!"
He Lianyu was stunned for a moment, "Yongchun gave birth prematurely?" He has been busy for the past two days, so he really doesn't know about He Lian Shuang's affairs, no wonder his father refused to see him.
I'm also glad that my father didn't summon him, otherwise he would be scolded so that smoke would come out of his head.
Gathering his mind, He Lianyu patted the folds of his clothes, "Okay, you go in and tell me that the king will come to him again when you have time."
"His Royal Highness, go slowly."
Of course He Lianjin was not reconciled to being let go so easily, but he understood Emperor Yonglong's intentions better.
His father is most jealous of his family dominance, even if he is Luo Lan's biological son, and He Lianyu is currently the only opponent who can contend with him. Unless He Lianyu really committed a heinous crime, there is no way for Emperor Yonglong Step on him to the end, he wants to use He Lianyu to check and balance the current situation, this is Yu Gong.
In private, He Lianyu just lost his adoptive mother. If he, as a father, stepped on his son's head again, he would be too indifferent and inhumane, and it would not be nice to spread it, so he just said angry words, in fact He didn't want to do anything to He Lianyu at all.
Standing up, He Lianjin said: "Father, there are still matters to be dealt with in the East Palace, so I will take my leave first."
Emperor Yonglong gave him a deep look.
From He Lianjin's eyebrows and eyes, one can vaguely see a bit of Lan'er's shadow. Of course, this is just a simple yearning for that person, but it is definitely not the reason why he made He Lianjin the prince.
His son was all in disguise in the early years. He always knew that the reason why he didn't expose it was to see what He Lianjin was going to do. Later, he discovered that the son's private behaviors that did not match his personality on the surface, It shocked him greatly.
He couldn't understand when a dandy prince who didn't even want to go to the Shang's study learned such shrewd and cruel methods. Although he hated many methods, he had to admit that this is what an emperor should look like.
Indecision and indecision are doomed to fail to defend the country.
"Father?" He Lianjin was very uncomfortable when he saw him.
Emperor Yonglong came back to his senses in an instant, "Since there is something to do, then you should go back first, the Queen Mother will be guarding here."
-
When He Lianjin returned to the East Palace, Xu Han told him that Mallow had left.
He Lianjin frowned, "Going away?"
"Yeah." Xu Han nodded, "It was Yao Shanggong who came to find the concubine's important person in person. She said that the Shanggong Bureau was going to rush out a batch of goods recently, and mallow's emerald emerald technique was the most proficient, so she was transferred back to help , wait until the work is over for a while before sending people over."
He Lianjin rubbed his forehead, "Forget it, since you're going back, let her go back. Such a simple person is not suitable for participating in too many palace fights. Bringing her to the East Palace may not be a kind of protection for her. It might end up hurting her instead."
"Is Your Highness really willing to let her go?" Xu Han said, "To tell you the truth, I really like her wit and intelligence!"
He Lianjin said: "If Han'er likes it, I will find you a better one in the future. As for Mallow, since Shang Gongju can't do without her so much, then let her go back to where she should be! The purpose of getting the East Palace is to not let her be poisoned by Concubine Xiao Huanggui. Now that Concubine Xiao Huanggui is dead, there is no point in keeping her. Since she is a rare craftsman, we will put her in the most suitable position superior."
"Well, the concubine will follow His Highness's arrangement." Xu Han nodded.
-
Guogong Mansion.
The matter of He Lian Shuang came to an end for the time being, Yun Chuwei did not go to Wu's house again, after all, she still had two little ones to take care of, and she was very worried about leaving such a small child to be watched alone by the servants, so as long as it wasn't If there is any special event, I will personally accompany you.
After the full moon banquet, Yunzheng and Mrs. Zheng are going to take little Ali back.
But Yun Chuwei refused to say anything, "Father, it's rare for you to bring your wife and little Ari here, so just stay a little longer. I haven't taken my wife out for a stroll these two days because of the princess's affairs." Shopping, it’s rare that I’m free today, why don’t you allow me, I’ll take my wife out for a walk, and buy something for little Ali, how about it?”
In fact, Yun Zheng was quite reluctant to part with Yun Chuwei, seeing her pleading so much, he could only nod in response, "Well, don't wander around for too long, come back earlier."
"Well, I see." Yun Chu smiled sweetly, "Thank you, Dad."
After returning to the room, Yun Chuwei explained to Aunt Han, "Auntie will stay at the house today to watch over Xiaoba and Xiaoshi. I don't feel relieved if the maids are allowed to come."
Aunt Han was puzzled, "Madam is going out?"
"Yes." Yun Chu nodded with a smile, "My wife has been here for so many days and I don't have time to accompany her. It's rare that I don't have anything to do today."
Aunt Han understood, "Madam, just go, the old slave will take good care of the two little masters."
"I'm sorry." After Yun Chuwei finished speaking, she was about to walk outside.
"Ma'am." Aunt Han called her again behind her.
"what happened?"
"Meizi is quite skilled, madam, take her with you, just in case."
Yun Chu secretly praised her for being thoughtful, "Well, I'll take her there later." Anyway, Mei Zi and Mrs. Zheng know each other, so when they go out, they don't need to be bound by the relationship between master and servant, just treat it as if they haven't seen each other for a long time It’s not easy for relatives to get together, and it’s good for everyone to have fun.
Taking the plums and calling out to Mrs. Zheng, Yun Chuwei took A Li's little hand and walked out the door. The carriage was ready, and this one was big, so it would be no problem to take three or one small.
Seeing that it was Xiao Ji who was driving the car, Yun Chuwei didn't say anything, anyway, every time she went out alone, Master Jiu arranged it like this, and she was used to it.
"Madam, madam, please." Xiao Ji personally picked out the curtains for several people.
Yun Chuwei hugged little A Li and sat on it first, followed by Zheng Shi, and finally Meizi.
Yun Chuwei hugged little Ali, and sat on a large chair with Zheng Shi, while Meizi consciously pulled Xiao Wuzi to sit. After coming to the Duke's Mansion for so many years, especially under the guidance of Aunt Han, she and other All the little maids have changed their rules. Wherever they go, they think that they are just slaves, and they can't laugh and play with their masters at will. Masters and servants must be distinguished.
Mrs. Zheng glanced at Meizi, a little strange, "You little girl, when you were in Xinghua Village, didn't you like to chatter the most, why are you just so sullen now, who messed with you?"
Mei Zi raised her head and said with a blushing face, "Before, it was the servant who was ignorant and offended the wife. I hope your lord will have a lot."
Zheng's eyes widened all of a sudden, and she looked at Yun Chuwei in disbelief, "Could it be that this girl was transferred?"
Yun Chuwei smiled helplessly, "You must have been taught by Aunt Han, right?"
Mei Zi blushed a little, "Auntie Han is right, the maidservant didn't understand the rules before, and only cared about having fun with the girl, so why would she have so many scruples? It's really outrageous."
"What about now?"
"Nowadays, slaves don't dare to act like they used to." Mei Zi was telling the truth. Even if it wasn't for Yan Guige, the maids and women in Tai Furen's courtyard would all behave in a proper way. The master joked and even ate together, but there really wasn't one.Especially after Aunt Han came, Mei Zi felt even more ashamed when she saw the awe-inspiring aura in her whole body, "Madam, this servant has already made up her mind to change her mind and start a new life."
Yun Chu let out a slight chuckle, "I used to say that I couldn't read big characters, but now I have been studying in the school for a few months, and your small mouth is getting better at speaking."
Meizi chuckled, "Thank you Ma'am for your compliment."
"Okay!" Yun Chuwei stretched out his hand to poke her on the head, "I didn't know you yet, when I saw the little doll, I was so happy, talking about the rules, but in fact, I wanted to hug the little doll a long time ago." Li, am I guessing wrong?"
Meizi bit her lower lip, feeling a little shy, "I know I can't hide anything from Madam."
Yun Chu raised his eyebrows slightly, "Who made you stay by my side for so many years? Of course I know you well."
After all, he hugged little Ali from the seat.
Meizi hurriedly reached out to catch him.
Little A Li looked at Mei Zi curiously, and seeing that she was wearing a bead flower on her head, she reached out to take it, Mei Zi didn't mind, she just took off the bead flower and handed it to him, "Does A Li want this?"
When Meizi was talking, she put one hand around Ali's back lightly, in case he lost his footing and fell backward.
Ah Li held the bead flower in her hand and played with it for a while, then opened her mouth to bite.
"Hey hey!" Yun Chuwei snatched Zhuhua away in a hurry, and deliberately acted fiercely towards him, "Who told you this is edible?"
Little Ali stared blankly at Yun Chuwei, seeing her yelling at herself, her small mouth was flattened, feeling unspeakably aggrieved, she turned her head away and didn't look at her again.
Yun Chuwei immediately changed his smiling face and called him, "Little Ali."
Ali continued to turn her head to one side, ignoring her.
Yun Chuwei shouted again, "Little Ali, my sister has candy, do you want it?"
Ali still ignored her.
Yun Chu looked at Mei Zi slightly, "Since little Ali doesn't want delicious food, the three of us will go eat later and leave him alone in the carriage."
When Xiao Ali heard this, she felt aggrieved again and stomped her feet.
Yun Chu was slightly frightened: "If you dare to cry, my sister will really not take you down after a while."
Little A Li shook her head, "A Li doesn't cry." Wiping her tears while speaking, her nose twitched.
Yun Chu looked at Zheng Shi slightly in surprise, "I forced him to say a complete sentence." Although the enunciation is not very clear, it is already very good. As long as you can take the first step to speak a sentence, You can learn it slowly in the future.
Yun Chuwei likes to strike while the iron is hot, so he hugged little A Li to sit on his lap, and asked him, "What does A Li like to eat? You can name a few, and my sister will buy you a few in a while, okay?"
After hearing this, Ah Li stretched out her small palm, Yun Chuwei thought he was going to count, but unexpectedly, he stretched out his small palm to Yun Chuwei to make a gesture, "So many."
"So much?" Yun Chu laughed a little, and took his little hand, "How much is it?"
A Li shook his head, he didn't know, but he knew that he wanted to eat a lot of delicious food.
"Is there any more?" Yun Chu asked slightly.
Ali stretched out another little hand.
Yun Chuwei couldn't help but cheer up, "This little guy." If he could grow up in the same big courtyard with Little Ba and Little Eleven, he would definitely be smarter in the future.
Yun Chuwei didn't mean to look down on Xinghua Village to look down on Yunzheng and Zheng, but felt that if A Li grew up in Xinghua Village, a lot of knowledge would be blocked by the mountains. She hoped that A Li could have a better life. environment for growth and learning.
However, when she went to see Yunzheng before going out, she raised a little fur, Yunzheng's attitude was already very firm, he would not move to the capital.
Yun Chu slightly understood Yun Zheng's persistence, but what about little Ali?Will he definitely like Dashan?Maybe when he grows up, he will also yearn for the world beyond the mountain.
This is a real headache.
"Ma'am, we're on the street." Mei Zi's joyful voice rang in his ears, and Yun Chuwei immediately came back to his senses. "Oh, you guys go first, I'll come with Ali in my arms."
After getting off the carriage, Xiao Ji found a place to park the carriage and followed them not too far or too close.
Yun Chuwei kept holding Xiao Ali, his hands were small and soft, and he couldn't bear to pull him.
The purpose of the few people coming out was to go shopping, so they didn't specify which shops to go to, they walked all the way, and went in to see if there were practical ones.
In front of Cai's shop, little A Li stood still.
Yun Chuwei didn't realize it at first, but after walking two steps forward, she realized that the little Ali who was being held by her hadn't moved. She turned around and saw him drooling over the pastry inside. Shaking his head, nodding his little head, "You boy, we have so many pastries in our house, haven't you gotten tired of eating these past few days?"
Little Ali clicked her lips twice, then smiled silly at Yunchu.
Yun Chuwei still didn't understand that he just smelled the scent of cakes for a while, so he got greedy, so he dragged him in, and there was a kind-faced old man selling cakes inside, Yun Chuwei glanced at the freshly baked cakes , "Old man, how do you sell this pastry?"
The old man said kindly, "Fifty Wen a catty on the far left, and eighty Wen on this side."
Yun Chuwei glanced again, there was more behind, she pointed, "What about this one?"
The old man said: "This one is a bit expensive. The one on the left is one tael per catty, and the one on the right is three taels per catty."
Yun Chuwei understood, thinking that these were prepared for wealthy families, Cai's shop is very famous in the capital, Yun Chuwei often listened to the little maids in the mansion chatting and longed for the monthly payment, so he must Go to Cai's shop to buy some kind of pastry to taste enough, otherwise you will always think about it and drool.
Speaking of which, although she has been in the capital for several years, she has never eaten anything from Cai's shop.
Glancing at little A Li, Yun Chu asked with a smile, "Which one does A Li want to eat?"
Ah Li pointed at the fifty-cent Ruyi Cake.
Yun Chuwei asked him, "Why do you want this?"
Ah Li didn't speak. When his mother took him to the street before, every time he bought pastries, he would hear the word "Wen", a few "Wen", but today he heard the word "Two". I understand what it means, but I vaguely feel that it will cost a lot of money, so I dare not ask for that expensive pastry.
Yun Chuwei pointed to the Qiqiao snacks that cost three taels of silver a catty, "Don't you like this?" Little Ali nodded, then shook her head immediately.
He couldn't say it, and Yun Chuwei couldn't understand it either, so he squeezed his little face, "Little guy, what exactly are you trying to express?"
At this time, Mrs. Zheng and Meizi happened to arrive. Mrs. Zheng came in from the outside, and after hearing what Yun Chuwei said, she pulled little Ali aside, tugged at Yun Chuwei's sleeve, approached her and whispered: "Let's Let's go, this pastry is too expensive."
When she was at her mother's house, the most expensive cakes she had eaten were only fifty Wen a catty. Here, a catty of cakes sells for three taels of silver?The elders who go out to work can only spend this amount of money at most a month.Think about it, how much hard work was spent in exchange for sweat money to buy a catty of pastries like this, it is extravagant.
Yun Chuwei didn't know how to explain the price of goods in the capital to her, so he just smiled and said, "It's okay, we don't buy too much, just buy one catty, one catty will be all right?"
Mrs. Zheng still disagreed, so she bought flour for three liang of silver and went home, so she could make a lot of pastries by herself.
The head of the family knows that salt and rice are expensive. Today's Zheng family wants to spend every penny in the most reasonable place. She will not be stingy with little Ali. She would rather take good care of him without food or clothing, but she would never Not so extravagant and wasteful.
"But look, madam, little Ali likes Qiqiao snacks very much. He finally came to the capital, so he can't just go back without trying everything? What a pity!"
Mrs. Zheng looked at her son and frowned, "Well, one catty is one catty, but I will pay for it myself."
Yun Chuwei knew he couldn't persuade her, so she quickly gave Meizi a wink.
Meizi understood immediately, and came in to hold Zheng's arm, "Madam, Miss Jiao Yan is working as a shopkeeper on the street ahead, do you want to go and see?"
Zheng Shi was a little surprised, "She is not far ahead?"
"Yeah." Mei Zi nodded, "A few days ago Miss Jiao Yan was still thinking about you, wife, but now she is looking forward to it, why don't we choose a date instead of bumping into the sun, and go over now?"
"But, Ah Li is still here...Hey, Meizi, don't drag me!"
Mei Zi said: "Don't worry, Ah Li will be fine with Madam."
Before Zheng could react, she was dragged far away by Meizi.
Now, Yun Chuwei can safely buy Qiqiao snacks for little Ari. The auspicious fruit and plum blossom cakes of the same price each brought a catty, and asked the old man to keep one piece for each, and pack the rest in oil paper specially wrapped for dim sum. it is good.
Yun Chuwei handed a piece of Qiqiao dim sum to little Ali, he took a bite of it lightly, and said cheerfully: "Xiangxiang."
"Xiangxiang, eat more." Yun Chuwei took out a handkerchief to wipe the pastry crumbs from the corner of his mouth, and dragged him out the door.
Meizi took Zheng Shi to look for Jiao Yan, and Yun Chuwei could wander around without any scruples. Anyway, she was not afraid of tiring herself with the addition of Xiao Ji who was carrying things.
After walking around for a while, Yun Chuwei bought toys and other miscellaneous things for little Ah Li, but none of the ones that were seriously given away, Xiao Ji found it very strange, "How did Madam buy these things?"
Yun Chu said bluntly: "I don't like the fabrics outside. Instead of spending the unjust money to buy bad ones as gifts, it's better to go back to the house and get a few high-quality ones." Anyway, those fabrics are all because of Su. Yan's military merits were bestowed, and each horse was extremely luxurious, and when the time came, just tell Zheng that it was bought casually outside, and she would not be able to recognize what it was.In addition, there are high-quality japonica rice and others, all of which are sent together by someone pulling a cart.
After shopping around, the things he bought were all over the place, Yun Chu slightly raised his head to look, this place is close to Wu's house, since we are here, we can't stay here, let alone his good sister, It should be all the more so.
Yun Chuwei quickly went to buy some supplements for confinement and took them, and took little Ali to the gate. When the concierge saw Mrs. Qingluan, his attitude was quite enthusiastic, "Madam, please wait a moment, Rong Xiao Go in Tongbing."
Yun Chu nodded slightly, "Okay."
After a while, the concierge came back, bowed his body and smiled warmly, "Please come inside, madam."
Yun Chu slightly nodded at him, "I'm sorry."
When they came to Helian Shuangyuan, they heard chatter and laughter from afar, and went in to see, but Xu Han was inside.
"What a coincidence, is sister Han here?"
Xu Han turned around and saw her holding the little one who was walking wobbly. The little one was holding the gnawed pastry with different gaps in one hand. The little look was so cute that Xu Han couldn't help but stood up and walked over to measure it carefully. He glanced at A Li, "Hey, sister Wei, when did you have such a cute son?"
"Bah, bah, bah!" Yun Chu looked at her slightly, "What son, this is my younger brother."
"Brother?" Xu Han's face was full of surprise, "This is strange, where did you get your brother from?"
"Sister Han doesn't know." Yun Chuwei explained, "I used to have an adoptive father when I was in the countryside, and this is the baby of my adoptive father's family."
Xu Han still felt unbelievable, "Then how much will he do?"
"This is the first baby."
"Ah?" Helian Shuang exclaimed inside, "No way, how old is your adoptive father, Wei Wei?"
Yun Chuwei was so confused by these two people that he rolled his eyes, "Where are you thinking? My adoptive father was my father's subordinate in the army. After adopting me, he never married a wife. Later, when I was a little over 14 years old, At that time, he felt that it was inconvenient for an old man to take care of me, so he married a stepmother who was only two years older than me, in order to hope that two people of similar age could get along in harmony."
Xu Han immediately respected her adoptive father, "I never imagined that Wei Wei had such an experience in her early years, but your adoptive father is very respectable." Guo Yun Chuwei is a girl who just returned home, but Xu Han is a person who doesn't like to inquire about other people's privacy, so she has never explored Yun Chuwei's past. After becoming a good friend and sister, she will not Take the initiative to ask, after all, their relationship does not need those things to maintain.
"Why do I feel so pitiful for Wei Wei, who was sent out at such a young age." He Lian Shuang became sad, and if she wanted to say who among the three sisters had the best life, it would probably be her. Her father and queen mother love her dearly, even the queen mother, who doesn't like queens, also likes her very much. It can be said that she is loved by thousands of people. Compared with her sister-in-law and Wei Wei, she is really lucky.
The biggest misfortune is probably not being able to get to know these two people earlier. As for the extermination of the family, the abolition of the queen mother, and the premature birth of the child that almost killed her, Helian Shuang didn't think it was misfortune. On the contrary, it was because After these things happened, she became more and more aware of who was the friend worthy of her deep friendship. What's more, her mother was not dead, her parents were still in good condition, the child was born safely, and she was still alive. These are her great fortunes.
It was a great fortune to meet such a good friend and sister as Yun Chuwei.
Thinking of the part between himself and Huang Miaoyu, He Lian shook his head, feeling very uncomfortable.
"Do you think I'm not doing well now? What's so pitiful?" Yun Chu turned around slightly, raised his eyebrows, and looked at He Lian Shuang, "Besides, if fate had arranged it this way, maybe the three of us We might not be able to get together!" If the original owner hadn't been sent out, how would she be able to live in? The original owner is really not very good-tempered, and the possibility of becoming sisters with the two in front of her is almost zero. .
"That's right."
Xu Han nodded in agreement, and pulled Xiao Ali to kiss her.
He Lianshuang's words were right. During these days, she hoped that the child would almost have hallucinations. She didn't feel it before, but seeing that Yun Chuwei and He Lianshuang were accompanied by little ones Then, she was alone and alone, which made her feel sad at once, so she complained to He Lianjin one night, and He Lianjin directly understood that she was complaining that he was not good enough, so he used one night to prove to her that he was Whether it will work or not, Xu Han didn't have the nerve to go out the next day, and rolled her eyes when she saw He Lianjin. She just casually said that they haven't had children for so long, so what does that mean?
He Lianjin was not polite, "If not, where did the child come from?"
Xu Han was blushed by what he said, and he touched his belly quietly, looking forward, waiting for a while, if there is no movement after a month, she will, she... what else can she do, isn't it just to continue to be bullied .
Seeing Xu Han's unusual enthusiasm today, Yun Chuwei gave He Lianshuang a wink, but He Lianshuang didn't speak, just covered his mouth and smiled.
When Xu Han heard this, he glared at the two of them, "You both have babies with you, so why don't I imagine it?"
Yun Chuwei was speechless, "How long have you been married, why are you in a hurry?"
"Can I not be in a hurry?" Xu Han curled his lips, "If you don't give birth again, the children of your two families will be brought up in the future, and I will have to stay in the house all day to accompany me, and I will worry about where I want to go. How can I play with you?"
"That's easy." Yun Chu winked slightly, "Don't give birth to it?"
Xu Han pretended to punch Yun Chu slightly, "You little hoof, why don't you speak indiscriminately?"
Yun Chu smiled and avoided, she just didn't dare to say it, if He Lianjin knew how painful it is for a woman to give birth, she would definitely regret it.
However, women in this era rely on offspring to live. If you can give birth to a son, no one can shake your status. Tolerate you, a poor commander, occupying the position of wife?Besides, He Lianjin is going to be the emperor in the future. Once Xu Han can't have children and can't spread the branches and leaves for the royal family, there will be more and more women in the harem. The relationship between their husband and wife will be due to these women sooner or later. And fragmented.
Therefore, saying "not having a baby" and "regretting having a baby" are meaningless words. It's okay for my sisters to joke around, but if they spread the word, they should be scolded.
Probably because she felt that Xu Han had no malicious intentions, Xiao Ali did not reject her, and the two of them had a great time.
Yun Chuwei sat over to talk to He Lianshuang and asked her about her recovery in the past few days.
Of course, Helian Shuang can agree on everything.In fact, it's really good. There are so many people serving her, so I can't turn her into something wrong.
There is just one thing that He Lian Shuang is more worried about, "Wei Wei, our little girl is so small, every time the nanny is breastfeeding, I look at her, her little mouth has no strength at all, I am very worried that she will not Will..." Everyone said that she would live seven months but not eight months, but her little girl was only eight months old.
"Don't talk nonsense!" Yun Chu looked at her slightly, "You have to think about it this way, even if your little girl is full moon, she is only as big as when she was nine months in your belly, so she is small and has no strength. It's all normal, the doctors should know how to take care of it, right?"
"Yeah." He Lian nodded, "Take care of her according to the method you said, and dare not let her see the wind."
"That's right, after careful care for these two months, she will be as big as a full-term newborn, princess, you should take a rest, don't think about things all day long, think so much about what to do, you are not enough now Are you happy?"
Helian blushed a little.It can be seen that Angkor Angkor likes this daughter very much, and he ran to see it almost as soon as he was free, but because the doctor told him not to touch it casually, so he could only watch from the sidelines, but the face was clearly full of satisfaction. With a happy smile, when Helian Shuang saw him smiling, his heart felt sweet.
It turns out that being married and having children as a mother is such a happy thing. When her father bestowed the marriage on her, she still felt that her life might be over like this. She never thought that she would find happiness and support for the rest of her life. Yes, there is no grandeur, only two people complement each other, understand and tolerate each other, that kind of feeling, she can't express it, all in all, there is only one feeling, warmth.

Bringing little A Li back from Wu's house, Zheng Shi and Mei Zi had already returned to the Duke's mansion first, Yun Chuwei handed little A Li into Zheng Shi's hands, and then went to the outer courtyard to meet Yun Zheng, and heard him say that the private school had been closed. After the completion of the project, the children in several villages in that area are eagerly looking forward to the early departure of the teacher, so that they can go to school earlier.
Yun Chuwei was very relieved, "Father, the teachers have been invited a long time ago. There are four in total. When you leave, take them back with you."
Yun Zheng was a little surprised, "Did you invite me so early?"
Yun Chuwei murmured in his heart, Lu Xiuyuan sponsored 20 taels of silver, so naturally he had to do everything that should be done, otherwise it would be a waste of his efforts.
Thinking of Lu Xiuyuan, I didn't seem to see him at the full moon banquet. What is this person up to lately?
