Hou Men Splendid

Chapter 157

The combination of the two incidents before and after established a new image for Shao Ziyu. People have the essence of liking the new and loathing the old for rumors. It’s boring to turn things over and over again in the Shao family. Just treat it as wronging the right servant. This is the matter of the Hai family. Interestingly, Mr. Hai and his wife have had a good relationship for so many years. I didn't expect Mr. Hai to have such a past. Now that his son doesn't recognize him, I don't know what kind of regret he has in his heart.

Half a month later, the Ministry of Officials issued an official document, and Shao Ziyu was promoted to Minister of the Ministry of Punishment. The post of Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, which had been vacant for several months, was finally settled.

It was already mid-August at this time, the weather was still hot, and many people came to congratulate Shao's house.

The Shao family held a banquet for the guests, and Mr. Yang, the left servant of the Ministry of Punishment, was naturally also invited.

In fact, whether he did something to pull Shao Ziyu down and go up by himself, this is something he knows very well, Shao Ziyu didn't say anything, and he is also in the Ministry of Punishment, so Master Yang naturally wants to follow his example.

In the garden here, there are a group of children playing. Brother Bo wants to protect his sister, but Sister Ning doesn't understand her brother's mentality of "I'm afraid that my baby will be abducted by others when I sneeze". Walking very close to Xiao Jingyan, he called Brother Xiao from the left, Brother Xiao again, and Brother Bo couldn't move away from the side.

Xiao Jingyan, who is only four and a half years old, has been instilled by his father Xiao Hongxuan since he was a child that the girl of the Shao family is your daughter-in-law, you have to pay close attention to it, but he is much smarter than his unreliable father, and he knows that he must seek peace first. The sister and the two brothers like it, otherwise, Brother Bo would allow him to hold sister Ning's hand now.

The princess of the Northern Prince looked at them. She gave birth to her second child at the beginning of the year and wanted a daughter. The girl from the Shao family was very well-behaved. Your sister Ning is here to rest in the pavilion."

They are all half-old children, so there is no taboo. Xiao Jingyan took Ning's son to the pavilion, let the maid hold her and sit down first, and then moved and sat on the stool by herself, with a cool smile on her little face. look.

There was laughter from the other side of the corridor. Brother Bo had just sat down, turned his head and saw Princess Xiuhe and Princess Zhu Lexuan walking together. According to the etiquette, he stood up and bowed to Xiuhe.

"Forget it, you don't need to be so polite when you come out." Seeing Xiao Jingyan and Sister Ning sitting there obediently eating grapes, Xiuhe hesitated which one to hug first. Sister Ning raised her head to look at her, and Xiuhe came over to hug her He kissed her and greeted Mrs. Liu with a smile.

Xiuhe asked Brother Bo very naturally, "Where's your eldest brother?"

The people and children present didn't think it was a big deal, but Liu, who was sitting here peeling grapes for the two children, had a look of surprise. Xiu and Princess Dachang are now 13 years old, so it's really good to ask directly what.

"Brother is in the study." Brother Bo replied, Xiuhe stood up, "Take me there to have a look."

Brother Bo frowned, something seemed wrong.

"This is the second time I've been here. I haven't walked around yet. Your brother isn't here, so how about you take me for a walk?" Xiuhe looked at Bo Geer with a smile, and Bo Geer could only stand up. It's not easy for her to say anything, how can she stop her from saying no?
Brother Bo took Xiuhe around, and didn't intend to take her to his brother's place, but at this time he was not the one to make the decision. Knowing that Shao Jinghan was in his yard, Xiuhe went directly to his yard and turned into Brother Bo to follow. she goes.

At the gate of Shao Jinghan's yard, Xiuhe looked back at Brother Bo, "Is this your brother's yard?"

Brother Bo wanted to shake his head, but before he could say anything, he had already entered.

Xiuhe looked around the yard, and quickly found the location of the study room. The door was ajar. Xiuhe walked to the open window, leaned over and took a look. Shao Jinghan was standing there with a pen in his hand. Rice paper was spread out on the table in front of him. in half.

Shao Jinghan is practicing calligraphy.

Xiuhe wanted to take a closer look, but Shao Jinghan turned his head and looked over, was slightly startled when he saw her, put down his pen and was about to come out, when Xiuhe walked in directly.

"Princess, I'll accompany you out." Shao Jinghan looked at his innocent-looking younger brother at the door, and said respectfully to Xiuhe.

"It's already here, let's take a look before leaving." Xiuhe looked at the calligraphy and painting hanging on the wall, and there was Shao Jinghan's signature underneath, looking very carefully.

Zhu Lexuan followed Xiuhe, she said what she said, Xiuhe looked around the ornaments on the bookshelf, and his eyes fell on two beautiful jade carvings.

"Can you take this down to see?" Xiuhe asked Shao Jinghan for his opinion, it was a jade carving, Shao Jinghan nodded, Xiuhe took the one on the right, it was a golden toad carved out of rubies, lifelike.

Xiuhe looked at the little golden toad carved in the same way on the left, and asked Shao Jinghan, "Give this to me."

"Princess, this is a golden toad carved from a piece of jade. It was given to me by others. It is inconvenient to give it to the princess. If the princess likes it, this is also a golden toad." Shao Jinghan took a brocade box from the shelf. It is also a delicately carved golden toad, much prettier than the one in Xiuhe's hands.

Xiuhe shook her head. The ones carved from a piece of jade were a pair. Holding the golden toad, she smiled and took out the golden toad from Shao Jinghan's hand and put it with the one on the left. He went to the brocade box, took the brocade box into his hand, and said to Shao Jinghan, "Thank you."

Shao Jinghan was taken aback, Xiuhe had already turned around and walked towards the door, he glanced at the golden toad on the shelf, his brows were furrowed

It was already evening when Mrs. Liu sat down to talk with Lin Qingran when she was free, the guests had all left, and Sister Ning and Xiao Jingyan were tired of playing in the side room and fell asleep.

"There is something, maybe I am overthinking, but I have to tell you." Liu thought about the behavior of the show and the eldest princess in the garden, "Tell me, this show and the princess are both 13 years old. Now, your Dalang is also eleven." How can she casually say that she is going to someone else's yard, and even ask him where he is? It's not that Xiuhe doesn't understand these things, and the only possibility is that she wants to get close to Shao Jinghan.

"Last year, Princess Xiuhe also came here. They said they came to see Sister Ning. I didn't pay much attention to it. Dalang is still young." Lin Qingran didn't take it to heart at the time, but now she heard what the Princess of the North said. , I felt weird in my heart.

They all came from the age of girls, and now they are married and have children. They know some girls' thoughts. At the age of twelve or thirteen, if they want to see someone or get close to someone from time to time, they must have some intentions.

But her son is only 11 years old now.

This show and the princess, if you want to like it, you should also like fourteen or five-year-old boys.

"Your eldest son is strong and looks like twelve or three years old, and he has a calm temperament." Liu said carefully, "Xiuhe's temperament is straight, and he doesn't hold back what he says, maybe it's me If you think about it too much, she might treat her like your Dalang brother."

Lin Qingran asked Si Qin to call Bo Geer in, and asked him where he took Xiu and the eldest princess and what he did.

After listening to what Brother Bo said, Lin Qingran and Mrs. Liu glanced at each other. There was complete worry on their faces. If you want to say what Mrs. Liu said just now, it is still possible to treat them as younger brothers. Lang's thing is still one of a pair, Lin Qingran sounds weird no matter what, this Xiu and the eldest princess, could it be that they have fallen in love with their own son, think of the Lord Shang!

Let Bo Geer go out, Lin Qingran really felt that the point of this look was very strange, "The ages don't match, and now Xiu and the princess have reached the age of marriage." His son still has four or five years to wait.

"In this way, she must have talked about marriage earlier than your Dalang." Liu comforted her, "I thought about this matter after two years and the marriage was settled, so I don't mind mentioning it, but I still have to let you know." There is a number, and next time I enter the palace, I can pay more attention to it."

"Han'er will definitely not be the Lord." Lin Qingran was very sure of this, and said gratefully, "Thanks to your reminder." Next time she enters the palace, she will be more careful. He was not allowed to enter the palace again for several years.

"Thank you." They all know what Princess Shang means, which means they have completely ruined their future. Many people are still very grateful to Princess Shang, but they are definitely not people like them.

After seeing off the Northern Prince and Princess Concubine, Lin Qingran called the servant girl to come over to ask questions, then sat there and sighed, Mama Li came over and poured her tea, Lin Qingran held the cup in her hand, and sighed again With a sigh of relief, she just couldn't figure it out, Xiu and Princess Dachang had a crush on her son, and she was still a child.

"Miss, don't worry, this Xiu and the Eldest Princess are two years older than the Eldest Young Master. If we have been married in the past two years, it will have nothing to do with it." Li's mother explained her.

"It's impossible for them to have a relationship even if they want to." Lin Qingran just sighed, starting to worry about her son's future marriage so early
After a few days, fewer people went to Shao's house to congratulate her, so Lin Qingran had time to go to Lan's house. Ling'er is now called Lan Ling'er, and she is said to be the granddaughter of her uncle.

Before, my uncle accompanied her back to Xiyue Tribe, and Ling'er stayed there for three years. When she came back at the end of last year, at the age of sixteen or seventeen, my uncle began to worry about her marriage, but this child was not in a hurry to get married at all. There were quite a few people who wanted to marry the Lan family, but Ling'er had a straight temper and rejected them all.

Even Abao, who had been guarding her by her side for several years, made her reject her. My uncle said that she was influenced by her mother. Lin Qingran went there this time just to see what she meant and what she liked. man.

Lin Qingran went to Lan's house first, then went to Hefang Street after picking up Lan Ling'er and her uncle. The sound of the piano will be heard from the boats in the distance, and it is even more lively on the big cruise ship farther away.

Lan Ling'er got out of the cabin and looked at the bank of the river from afar. Lin Qingran followed her out, seeing that she was in a good mood, she smiled and said, "Do you like it?"

"It's a good place to relax." With wide eyes, looking up at the blue sky, looking down at the clear river, and the melodious sound of the piano, it's hard to feel bad.

"Look over there." Lin Qingran pointed to the boat slowly passing by not far away. She originally thought that many people would come here on a rest day, but she didn't think that the people who came out of the cabin were still acquaintances.

Shao Ziming was also taken aback when he saw Lin Qingran, and then a woman came out behind Shao Ziming. Isn't this Aunt Ruan? Shouted, "Sister Ruan, why did I meet you here!"
