Rebirth as Hou Menfu

Chapter 66

The marriage of the two went very quickly. At the end of April after Yizhi, after Qi Zhongzhou's courtyard was repaired, they got married. Although Zhou Churou was a female official, she no longer lived in the palace. Zhou Churou's preparations for marriage had begun a long time ago. Although the marriage was rushed, the Nanyang Hou Mansion still organized the belated wedding in a lively manner.

The third master came back with this move, and he had to go back after staying for half a month, leaving behind his wife Bai and a few children. It happened that the girls in Nanyang Hou's mansion had reached the age of marriage, so Bai stayed to decide the marriage. Now, go back and accompany Qi Zhongzheng.

Both Qi Zhongzheng and Bai Shi came to Qi Haoming's wedding. In the beginning, there were only two families in the Nanyang Marquis Mansion, the big house and the second house, but now it has all four furniture, and the number of encounters on the road has increased.

This day Yingxiu just came over from Mrs. Hou's greetings, when she met Bai Shi and her daughter-in-law Bailishi who happened to be able to sit in the second bedroom. Qin also passed by.

The courtyard of the second room is located on the north side of the Hou's mansion. Yingxiu has never been here since she got married. The Bai family was born in the general family, and she speaks very frankly. She accompanied the third master of the Qi family on duty outside, and the children were also there. The one who was born there, Baili thought he was frizzy, so he married his son a gentle daughter-in-law. The surname Baili is still very rare.

"I said why I heard the magpie report to the branch this morning. I feel that you are coming." When Lian heard the announcement from the woman at the door, she came out with a smile. He greeted them warmly and went to the house.

"If you don't come back to take a look, I don't even know where it is in this mansion." Mrs. Bai pulled her daughter-in-law to sit down, and Yingxiu sat under them without speaking. After a while, Mrs. Zhao also came over.

"I haven't seen Hao Jun since I came back. I heard that his hand was injured, or was it cut off by thieves in the mansion?"

A look of unnaturalness flashed in Zhao's eyes, he glanced at Yingxiu, and smiled, "It's just that someone hurt you when you caught the thief. It's almost done. The doctor said it's not suitable to move, so he didn't let him out. He was always thinking about it." Three uncles and three aunts."

"How could a thief enter such a big Nanyang Hou's mansion, but he didn't lose anything." Mrs. Bai has been married to Nanyang Hou's mansion for so many years, and she has never heard of such a rampant thief. people.

"Hao Jun found out in time." Lian Shi looked at the people around Bai Shi, "This is your daughter-in-law, she didn't go back to Beijing when she got married, she just took care of things there, and she didn't make up for anything when she came back."

"What's the matter? Neither the old man nor the young man can leave. If the fourth child hadn't gotten married this time, he still wouldn't be able to spare time to accompany us back."

"Wouldn't that be wronging your precious daughter-in-law?"

"Second aunt, don't feel wronged. My father and mother are very kind to me, and my husband loves me very much." Baili Ruoxiang shook his head, smiling a bit shyly.

"Sister-in-law, I do have wound medicine, which is very good for the recovery of fractures. I will send Baoqin to you later, and you can use it for cousin first." Seeing what Yingxiu said, Mrs. Zhao looked concerned. , feeling more and more unnatural in his heart, he smiled at Yingxiu, and turned his gaze to Lian who was sitting in front.

"Just send a girl to go back with you to get it later. You don't have to go to so much trouble to come back here." As long as it is good for his son, Lian is of course willing to give it a try, "You can send a girl to get it later. .”

Mrs. Zhao paused in her heart, nodded her head, and Yingxiu looked at Mrs. Lian and Mrs. Zhao calmly. Could it be that the second aunt really didn't know?
After returning from the second room, Zhao sent a maid to follow them back to Tingfeng Courtyard. Yingxiu asked Baoqin to bring the ointment to the maid and said, "Apply it once in the morning and evening. It will feel hot when you apply it at first." Dear, it will be fine after a while, but after using this ointment, don’t make your young master taboo, raw or cold food, spicy food, remember?” Yingxiu asked Baoqin to take the paper and write attention The matter is handed over to that girl.

"Miss, will Master Tang use the ointment?"

"If he has a guilty conscience, he will definitely not use it. He is very clear about how this injury came about. If you say that I send this over, don't they think that our Tingfeng Courtyard has bad intentions?" The ointment is indeed good. It was used, but Yingxiu also thought that the Zhao family would not use this thing for Qi Haojun, the hand injury is not a serious matter, if it is not recovered, Qi Haojun will have no future in this life.

"I think the second lady is very happy about what you said, miss." Baoqin muttered, helped her to sit down, and put a cushion behind her waist.

"Even if you are not happy, you have to agree happily, right?"

In the study room, Qi Zhongyang quarreled with his younger brother Qi Zhongzhou, "What are you moving out for? Your original yard isn't all the walls next to it. If it's not enough, the empty one at the back is fine too."

"Brother, how many places have Churou and I lived in? She likes to be quiet and I don't love many people. It's not a matter of the size of the yard." Qi Zhongzhou looked at the stubborn elder brother and sighed, "The third sister-in-law is back, we Also live in, this mansion has a lot of expenses, it is not easy for my sister-in-law to manage the family these years, if the family is not separated, there will only be more and more people in the family."

"You and your fourth brother and sister have just got married. Wouldn't it be nice to stay in the mansion with peace of mind? Now that you live outside, how can you take care of it?" People of the older generation always feel that the whole family lives together, and they should be happy. Anyway, they lived in the Nanyang Marquis Mansion, and there is no shortage of space.

"I've been away for so many years, and I haven't suffered any hardships. Big brother, when Haosheng inherits the position, how do you let him, a junior, deal with the affairs between these few houses? Second brother has been an official for so many years, and he still eats and drinks in the mansion. For the cost, the second sister-in-law doesn't care about the family and doesn't give anything, even if the parents have left something, sooner or later she will have a free day." Once Qi Haocheng inherits the Nanyang Marquis Mansion, the three families will have a home in the outer guard. He and Churou can simply go out, but there are many people in the second room.

"I'll talk about the position of the Marquis later." Qi Zhongyang's face darkened. It was after he had his eldest son that the Marquis of Nanyang handed over the entire Marquis Mansion to him. But his eldest son was only smart when he was young, and grew up But he did all the foolish things, so that even if he submitted a memorial, the emperor would not agree.

If the emperor felt that Qi Haosheng was not qualified, and the Nanyang Marquis Mansion insisted on Qi Haocheng's succession, the title might be cut off. How could the honor of several generations of the Qi family be defeated by him.

"Brother, the big tree attracts the wind. You have seen the situation of our family. Haosheng married the daughter of Prince Qing, but Haoming and Prince Ding are close. Churou has taken care of the queen for so many years. The situation in the palace is better than her. We can see clearly that if nothing else, Hao Ming's leg is recovering now, and his wife is pregnant, and you don't want anything to happen again." Seeing him hesitate, Qi Zhongzhou reminded, "When Hao Ming fell into the water, , you still remember what he said when he woke up."

Qi Zhongyang raised his head, with surprise in his eyes, "You mean."

"Back when Hao Ming woke up, everyone said he was delirious and still had a high fever. He called out that someone pushed him, because the maid who accompanied him at the time said that there was no one else near the small pond, so he said he did it. Nightmare, but that maid committed suicide by taking poison herself in the end, how do we know whether her words are true or not?"

"But after he woke up again, he didn't say anything more."

"That's when father and elder brother revealed a little meaning. Father liked Hao Ming and often brought him into the palace. Mother took him with him because he lost his mother since he was a child. At that time, how many people in the mansion guessed whether the position of the son It's going to fall on Haoming's head, and something happened to him in the end." Qi Zhongzhou felt most guilty that Qi Haoming only went to play with him that morning, but he didn't accompany him because he was in a hurry to go to the Zhou Mansion to meet Churou. Qi Haoming felt bored, so he took a maid to play in the garden, and when he came back in the afternoon, he was lying unconscious on the bed, his life was at stake.

The person who was still alive and kicking in the morning suddenly lay on the bed with a pale face. The old Mrs. Hou Ye is gone. On the bed, there is only air in and no air out.

"We'll talk about the family separation at that time. Now that the third sibling has brought their children back, they want to say goodbye to Lu Xin. Lu Hua and the others are not young anymore. Let's talk about it after all these marriages are done." Qi Zhongyang held his forehead with a headache, Qi Zhongzhou didn't say anything else, and returned to his own yard. Zhou Churou had just packed up the things he had brought, and when he saw him coming in, his face was not very good, so he sent a servant girl to pour some water, and said softly:

"Did you not have a good time talking with Big Brother?"

"The third sister-in-law brought Lu Xin back to tell her we're going to marry each other. What the elder brother means is that we can talk about it after they are all settled." Qi Zhongzhou didn't want to stay in the Nanyang Marquis Mansion, so he separated his family and looked for a quieter place in the capital. , even if he has no descendants in this life, he will never take concubines again. How big a place can two people live with Churou.

"Big brother also has big brother's difficulties. He is the Marquis of Nanyang, the backbone of the entire Hou family. The division of the family is not a day or two. When the old master separated the family, didn't he wait for the eldest brother to have the eldest son before dividing?" Now that Haosheng has not yet given birth to the eldest son, I am afraid that the second elder brother is not willing to divide."

"What are they unwilling to eat and drink for so many years, and we have to worry about the family property that father left us after dividing it. Don't think that I don't know what their idea is. I'm going to die living in this mansion, and the people in their house are almost as good as big brother and the others." Qi Zhongzhou really loves Qi Haoming, the young husband and wife are in such an awkward position, if Yingxiu's child It's a boy, and Tingfengyuan may be unstable.

"Then wait for them to talk about the marriage. You can discuss it with the eldest brother, the second brother and the third brother. I saw a nice courtyard, not far from the palace and the Marquis's mansion. It will be more convenient for you to come and go." Zhou Churou gently Gently patted his chest, "You will go to the imperial hospital in a few days, the empress is not in good health."

Qi Zhongzhou held her hand and sighed, "I can't escape when I come back, brother, I have to talk about it."

Here in Tingfengyuan, Yingxiu looked at the decoction that Pinger brought over, her brows were furrowed again and again, she picked up the spoon and scooped up the veratillae, it was already boiled and she couldn't tell the original shape, she turned to Qingbi who was waiting by the side Said, "Go and invite Fourth Uncle to come over and say that I have something important to ask."...
