Foster son and husband

Chapter 36
Meiniang came down from the couch, Cuisi hurriedly squatted down to put on her shoes, Xu Junying had already walked to the round table over there, Meiniang stepped forward, led the girls to salute him, Xu Junying glanced at Cuixi, and said :
"I have a few words with Grandma, you all go down!"

Mama Wang brought Cuixi, Cuisi and Cui Lian out of the room, Cheng'er served tea and bowed to leave.

Mei Niang looked at Xu Junying, and asked with concern: "Have you eaten your husband's dinner? Do you want to pass the meal up, and I can eat with your husband?"

"No, I've already eaten!"

Xu Junying sat down at the table, took the tea bowl, opened the lid to drink tea, but it was sweet scented tea, he frowned, put down the tea bowl, and looked around:

"Why is it so hot in your room?"

Mei Niang said: "Although it was sunny and sunny these two days, it was still cold at night. I was afraid of the cold, so I asked them to put two more braziers in. If your husband is not used to it, let them carry it out." !"

Xu Junying looked at her: "I'll just sit for a while, and leave after I finish talking."

"What does your husband want to say?"

Xu Junying took out a jade bottle from the sleeve and put it on the table: "This is Liuhe pill, you can take it, one pill a day can strengthen your body."

Mei Niang approached and picked up the small bottle to enjoy, and said with a smile: "This bottle is so beautiful! Thank you husband, I will eat it well!"

"The Daoist Lingxuzi who diagnosed your pulse gave it to you, you should thank him!" Xu Junying said indifferently.

"Yes, thank you Taoist priest some other day!" Mei Niang smiled: "Are they still living in the Hou Mansion, or have they returned to Guiyun Villa?"

Xu Junying was startled: "Do you know Guiyun Villa?"

Mei Niang smiled: "My husband took Mr. Zhang to check Rulan's pulse. I chatted with Daoist Lingxuzi for a while, and he told me that they live in Guiyun Villa, and I can go there to find them in the future!"

Xu Junying said, "What are you looking for them for?"

"They are genius doctors, and looking for them is nothing more than seeing a doctor. I asked Daoist Lingxuzi, and when my brother returned to Beijing, I asked him to take a look at the doctor. My brother studied too hard, hurt his body, and caused the root cause of cough and asthma, which cannot be cured for a long time. .”

Xu Junying straightened his face: "They are not ordinary doctors. They have something to do. Wouldn't it be annoying if you were annoyed when you first met, and you have to look for them again in the future?"

Mei Niang refused to accept: "They have medical skills, so they must be willing to treat others, and they are old friends of the husband. They are people of their own. As the saying goes, it is better to ask for yourself than to ask for others. Go outside to find those doctors who don't know the details. We can't believe everything he says. , now that we have friends who know medical skills, they won’t play tricks on us, why not? Look at Rulan who has solved her confusion and let go of her worries, isn’t it good?”

Xu Junying said: "Nonsense! What kind of family are we? The doctors are all imperial doctors from the imperial hospital. They have real talents and practical knowledge. Why are they playing tricks? Today Rulan is fine. Wait for your brother to come back. Please ask an imperial doctor to come over there to treat him, so there is no need to bother Ling Xuzi anymore!"

Mei Niang looked at him, turned her face away: "Since I have made an appointment with Lingxuzi, I will definitely bring my brother to visit someday!"

A cold look appeared in Xu Junying's eyes: "If you don't listen to me, you will have to stay in this courtyard honestly in the future, don't go anywhere, and don't have to do anything. I'll go back to my wife tomorrow, and I'll wait for you in the mansion. Let Jingyu and Rulan take care of it!"

Meiniang was stunned, and looked at Xu Junying: "What is the husband doing? I am your wife, the eldest grandma, Mrs. Hou! Shouldn't I be in charge of the Hou family? , in my lord, the husband sings and the wife follows, run the Hou Mansion together with the husband, and the family lives happily, isn't it good?"

Xu Junying turned her eyes and said lightly: "Didn't you learn female virtues in your mother's house before? As a wife, you must obey your husband's will first, and then manage housework. You always don't discuss with me like this, no Respect me, do everything you want, all on a whim, how can I rest assured that you will be in charge of Hou Fuzhong? Be your wife at ease, now you don't have to take Heng'er with you, just play piano and chess in the courtyard, Wouldn’t it be leisurely to read and paint, to cultivate one’s morality and self-cultivation?”

Mei Niang bit her lip, holding her breath in her chest, and it took a long time to adjust her breathing to let it go.

My mind was spinning quickly: When did you offend Xu Junying?He blamed her for being disobedient and making her own decisions in everything. What did he do?
To meet his friends without permission?Didn't he come back drunk yesterday to drag her to meet those two?He asked Lingxuzi and Zhang Jingyun to take Rulan's pulse, and asked him, did he make an appointment with Lingxuzi to treat his brother without consulting him?Still—oops!Did he know that the five old ginseng were all given to the old lady?But he didn't say that he would send them all!

Xu Junying looked at Mei Niang, under the shadow of the lamp, she lowered her head slightly, sitting upright, with her hands wrapped in her sleeves on her knees, the skin on her side face and neck was bright and tender, her hair was black and shiny, and her long hair was long. The long and slightly curly eyelashes fluttered gently, like a pair of butterflies resting among flowers.

Xu Junying reluctantly thought of the wedding night in the bridal chamber, Mei Niang was like this at that time, delicate and helpless, very pitiful, he really wanted to hold her in his arms, but before he could do it, there was noise outside the bridal chamber , A group of old good friends came to the bridal chamber to see the bride, he hurried out, stopped them, was dragged out to drink, and ended up getting very drunk, was helped back to the new house and lay down without remembering anything, the second time The headache was splitting, and he couldn't get up for a long time. The old lady passed on a message: Since the groom is unwell, the tea service will be skipped.The girls came to serve him, but Mei Niang just stood behind and watched from a distance, wringing her hands, her face full of timidity, and tears in her eyes, he regretted so much in his heart, he didn't have the capacity to drink with them, and he was left out in the cold Bride, look at scaring her like this!

On the second night of their wedding, he was gentle and considerate to her, but she avoided her far away, her little face turned red and purple, and she told him softly: Her period is coming!
There is nothing more frustrating than this!On the third day after his marriage, he packed up and set off to fight the enemy in the northern battlefield.

When he returned triumphantly, Meiniang actually gave birth to a son. He was extremely shocked, closed the door and questioned Meiniang, the timid little bride became indifferent and alienated, tightly guarding the child, her eyes were full of fear but she resolutely refused to let go!He was furious, hurt and hated, loved her so much, insisted on marrying her regardless of her humble background, and would think of her when fighting the enemy desperately on the battlefield, who knew she would betray him so easily!

He quickly discovered something suspicious. Zheng Meiyu, who came to Mei Niang's room to chat with her every day, couldn't bear his good words and a few teasing eyes, so she sneaked into his study and spoke convincingly, confirming his guess. Her heart was once again broken to pieces: the seventh younger brother, Junjie, whom she loved since childhood, is Heng'er's father!
His mother, Mrs. Zheng, came to see Heng'er every day, took care of the daily life of the mother and son, and discussed with him various matters that need to be done during the full moon. Relatives and friends, celebrities and dignitaries all over the city, and officials of all ranks in the court came to congratulate one after another, even the palace was alarmed.

He couldn't speak up, couldn't explode, and looked at the people around him full of sorrow and hatred. He watched the old seventh Xu Junjie come to Tsinghua University to talk to him restlessly every now and then, and from time to time he cast his worried and eager eyes on the upper room where Meiniang lived.He and Lao Qi were exchanging martial arts in the martial arts training ground. It was no longer the way of teaching them when they were teenagers, but with vicious moves, which beat Lao Qi until his head was broken, his nose was bruised and his face was swollen. He said to Lao Qi:
"If you don't bleed during drills, you will lose your life on the battlefield!"

Unexpectedly, Lao Qi insisted on going to the battlefield with him later, so Zheng sent a message: Let him go, your father also hoped that he could go to the battlefield to experience some experience, and with his elder brother taking care of him, everything will be fine!

In this battle, he was the coach, but the death of Lao Qi was not intentional. After all, they were brothers, and they had been close since childhood. If they didn't want to see him again, they couldn't take his life away.

He specially selected two lieutenants, two hundred elite soldiers to follow Lao Qi, all of whom are veterans who have been through battles, to guard Lao Qi at critical moments and protect him. Lao Qi is too young, careless and conceited , harming others and harming oneself, more than 1000 soldiers, chasing 500 people, the result was that more than half of them were lost, and the enemy soldiers successfully broke through and killed the main general...
