Hou Men Splendid

Chapter 67

As the son-in-law of Master Lin and the grandson of Shao Guogong, it is not difficult to find an errand in the court. Besides, Shao Ziyu's parents encountered bandits when they delivered the disaster silver, and they sacrificed themselves to protect the silver. Future generations will also leave favors, so it is not difficult for Shao Ziyu to find a good and easy job.

It's just that Shao Ziyu had already made up his mind that he wanted to take over.

From fifth-rank officials in the Hanlin Academy to local officials, they can be promoted by one or two levels to become officials. This is what Lin Wenxi considered for his son-in-law's foreign appointment. Some.

The place for Shao Ziyu's foreign post was soon decided, Pengcheng, next spring when Pengcheng's official term expires, Shao Ziyu just went to Pengcheng to take over.

People in Luodu City may not be familiar with Pengcheng, but people in the Shao family are very familiar with this place. Thirteen years ago, Shao Guogong's fifth son, Shao Changzhong and his wife, were robbed by bandits in a valley passage outside the city. they killed.

When Shao Guogong was alive, this place was a taboo place, and the Shao family would not mention it. He lost his most beloved son. For Shao Changrui, the only younger brother died there, and he was speechless facing the dead Mrs. Shao. But Shao Ziyu, who suffered the most, chose to go to this place this time.

So when the Shao family knew that Shao Ziyu was going to Pengcheng, for the first time, the entire Qi family objected to him going there.

From Mrs. Madam Gu’s request to dissuade him, until finally Shao Ziming came to persuade this younger brother, Shao Ziyu still insisted on going. Shao Ziming agreed with him to go abroad. It’s the most free thing to leave Luodu City, but can’t you go to other places? Brother, since I was a child, my fourth brother didn't understand what you think, and now my fourth brother can't understand what you think."

Shao Ziming patted him on the shoulder, instead of drinking alcohol this time, drinking tea instead, sitting in the pavilion watching the koi swimming in the small pond below, "Tell fourth brother, there are so many places to choose from, why do you have to go That."

"Pengcheng is surrounded by water on one side, the river is winding, and there are many small islands on the river." Shao Ziming smiled as he drank tea, "There are still bandits on the island."

Shao Ziyu nodded, "That's right, there are bandits on the island."

Hearing what he said, Shao Ziming's expression became serious, "You still can't let go of what happened back then."

"If it were the fourth brother, would you let it go?" Shao Ziyu was still too young back then. When he knew his parents passed away, he didn't even know the reason for the death, and the body was put into the coffin before he had time to see it. In the process, he has too many questions, and he must go there in person.

"So what if you go, the robber who killed Uncle Wu has already been arrested and brought to justice, and it has been more than ten years."

"Then I'll go and have a look." Go and see the rumored beautiful and unsettled place in Pengcheng.

"You don't plan to take the waterway?" 13 years ago, the donated silver was transported by horse-drawn carriage. If you want to go along the way, you can't take the waterway.

Shao Ziyu shook his head, "Uncle and the others have also asked about it, not going by water."

"Fourth brother still wants to envy you." Shao Yuming patted him on the shoulder, and he had no hope of being able to persuade him, "After going there for two or three years, fourth brother will still be locked up in Shao's house. Brother is not free."

"Fourth brother, what do you mean by freedom?" Shao Ziyu also couldn't see through him, and never played cards according to common sense.

"The world is so big, let me roam around, do what I like to do, find someone I like, who can live my whole life, I haven't accomplished any of these two things." Shao Ziming stood up and took a deep look at him, For him, the more casual the better

After all the persuasion failed to persuade Shao Ziyu, the official document was approved, and he would leave for Pengcheng to take up the post in the spring of next year.

Shao Ziyu's thoughts are now on Lin Qingran. Counting the days, he set off to take up the post. Lin Qingran was just at the beginning of the confinement, and Shao Ziyu hugged her, "I will wrong you this time, and you will have to wait until you are confinement." Set off."

Born in December, starting in February, that is, not long after confinement, Lin Qingran doesn't worry about her body, she is such a big child, she can't bear the bumps on the road, but she can be raised in Luodu City Don't worry.

Shao Ziyu whispered something close to her ear, Lin Qingran groaned, and turned to look at him, "That's not cheating the whole family."

"En." Shao Ziyu nodded, and Lin Qingran saw the flicker in his eyes, "Why do you arrange this?"

"I want to see if something will happen if I take this path more than ten years later." The more he grows up, the more curious he is about his parents back then, and he can't stop himself if he can't figure out the whole situation.

In Lin Qingran's view, he just had doubts about the case back then.

She reached out and patted him on the back lightly, Lin Qingran softened her tone, "Then let's go and see, you didn't know it when you were young, now we all go to find out, I think that Pengcheng is worth going to." place." All she had to do was to accompany him and support him, just like giving him the most firm comfort when he was feeling down now.

That night Shao Ziyu talked about a lot of things about his childhood, which he never mentioned to Lin Qingran, some of which have become very blurred, too much time has passed, Lin Qingran took his hand and stroked her stomach Go up, looking at him with a smile, "Do you feel it?"

That lightly passed into the palm of his hand, Shao Ziyu retracted his hand, and then gently put it on. It was still at the same place, and the child in his stomach pushed it lightly. In the position of his palm, it was soft, soft, good. magic.

"Recently he's been moving a lot, and he's very naughty."

Shao Ziyu seemed to feel that his own heartbeat was synchronizing with this child. It was a weak little life conveying his existence, communicating with him through Lin Qingran's stomach.

Shao Ziyu took Lin Qingran's hand, and the two of them stuck to her stomach at the same time. This scene is very warm

After Shao Ziyu's official documents came down, Lin Qingran took the time to collect some things about Pengcheng, living habits, the general temperament of the people, how the grain harvest was, whether any major incidents happened, and how the security environment was.

As for Shao Ziyu, he had to get acquainted with some official duties as soon as possible, so busy until September, the weather was getting colder, and Lin Qingran was also seven months pregnant.

She was busy entrusting the shop in her hand to take care of. The shop under Shao Ziyu's name will need the help of the second aunt in the future, and some of Lin Qingran's own shops will be handed over to the Lin family for the help of her parents.

At the end of September, when Mama Li returned from recovering from her injuries, Shao Ziyu went to sleep in the wing room again.

Lin Qingran's clothes changed from one body to another. When she was seven or eight months old, her belly grew rapidly, as if she had blown air. At night, her legs would swell. One night watchman was replaced by two, and they took turns to give Lin Qingran Ran massaged her legs to relieve the pain.

Sometimes I had nightmares at night, woke up and opened my eyes. It was still in the middle of the night, and Lin Qingran was terrified, so she asked Mama Li to wake up Shao Ziyu in the wing room and come to accompany her.

Only sleeping in his arms would be more comforting for her. After coming and going, Li's mother agreed to keep her watch outside, and she would not do anything out of the ordinary.

When Lin Qingran was almost nine months pregnant, at the beginning of November, a small incident happened in Shao's mansion. Through the room, the son didn't go to sleep, so the fourth master fell asleep.

Go to sleep when you sleep, that's just a small thing. After looking forward to the happy event for more than five years, the daughter-in-law is finally happy. Another piece of good news came out that one of the housemates who had been sleeping with the fourth master was diagnosed as pregnant. Double happiness, after the child is born, the nephew will be a few days older than the uncle.

The fourth master is very happy. After many years of marriage, the fourth old lady only gave birth to one child. Now that she wants to have a son when she grows old, she will not agree to kill the child in the belly of the Tongfang. , he is happier being a father than a grandfather.

This is unpleasant news for the fourth old lady. After so many years of prevention, those concubines have not been allowed to have a chance to have children. The fourth wife only has one son, and they are so old at the end of the day. Come.

So she sued Mrs. Tai and begged for the decision, and disposed of the concubine's room. It was originally arranged for her son, but letting the fourth master sleep in it was already against the rules. Now that she still has a body, the face of the fourth room will be Where to put it.

Mrs. Sun didn't realize that when such a thing happened, there was no place to put her face. This person who became a grandmother first and then a mother was not born by herself, so the feeling is so delicate.

For Mrs. Gu, a concubine is nothing more than a maid, and her body is still in the Shao Mansion, so she is a slave. Now that she has a body, let her give birth, "It's fine to raise it under your name. You are still afraid of a concubine. What kind of storm is blowing up in the room."

"Mom, you said we are all so old, and Ziyin is finally going to be a father. Isn't this a joke?" Stealing the limelight and stealing her husband's attention, people at this age really don't care Face.

"You know it's a joke and you gave Ziyin a concubine. Could it be that you have forgotten how the child didn't exist before? Whose fault was it? You also know that you are all at your age. I haven't seen you do serious things. It's stupid. It’s one by one, and this kind of thing is brought up in front of me.”

"It's not our turn to do serious things." Mrs. Sun felt wronged, and muttered softly, Mrs. Gu glanced at her, "Okay, go back, can't you make up your own mind, just do what you want. "

What did Mrs. Sun want to do? Mrs. Sun definitely didn't want this concubine to give birth to the child. Therefore, in this November, Lin Qingran was in a bad mood because her legs swelled every night. She couldn't be in a bad mood after all the crazy things that happened.

It was a happy thing for Mrs. Jin to be pregnant, but she couldn't bear the crying of her mother-in-law in the yard. Shao Ziyin loved his wife very much, and never wanted her to be caught between her parents like last time. As soon as the package was received, he accompanied Xiao Jin back to Jin's house, and this company had no plans to go back to Shao's house in the near future, so he thought it would be better to let his wife stay at Jin's house until she gave birth smoothly, so as to save her heart
