Xiaoqi returned to the capital in mid-July. I feel that she has done nothing else this year and has been on the road.

Since I saw the back in the carriage that time, the couple had never met again, including this time when they returned to Beijing, they were both together. Li Chu was the capital who went directly with his uncle from the camp, and Xiao Qi was walking with his eldest wife.

Because Aunt Fan was in confinement, she stayed in Qinchuan for the time being. Like her, she also stayed in Qinchuan with several concubines from the three-bedroom apartment, as well as Mei Wanyu and Zhao Xiangqi from the Stone Courtyard. Because they did not have subsequent imperial edicts, they did not need to rush to come to the capital.

That's right, Xiaoqi got the imperial edict.

This time when I entered the palace to thank me, the things on my head became even heavier because she was pregnant. Fortunately, Li Chu went to the palace to ask for grace and asked her to give her a lot of tribute.

After all the tribute and the thanks were completed, he chose a zodiac auspicious day, and Li Chu took his wife to Wu's house.

Wu Shaojun then came to visit her home.

"This is the makeup I added to Hongfu." Wu Shaojun opened the makeup box, and inside it was a pair of gold-striped bracelets, which were exquisitely crafted and had enough weight.

How dare Hongfu accept such a heavy gift?

After Xiaoqi's persuasion, she finally accepted it and thanked Wu Shaojun and agreed that on the day Hongfu left the house, she would come to have a wedding banquet.

"How long will your belly last?" Wu Shaojun signaled Xiaoqi's belly.

"It's about two months left." Thinking of her aunt Lan's family, when she left the capital, she was pregnant. It's almost time to give birth, "Has that lady Lan in your family born?"

Wu Shaojun curled his lips, "I gave birth to a boy with a height of over eight pounds. My mother-in-law was so happy that she held her every day and didn't let go. She said that she was looking at Kangjian with Brother Wen."

"Is my brother-in-law back? What does he mean?" Mo Changmeng left Qin Chuan one step earlier than the others, probably because he saw the child born.

"He is not the first one after all. He is happy, but he is not as fresh as Brother Wen when he was a child. He hugged him twice and occasionally went over to check it out. Now she is in the confinement period and cannot stay, and she is still in my house on a daily basis." I wonder if he feels that he is in debt to her, but when he comes back this time, he is willing to talk to her about family matters. In the past, he either goes back to the house to eat or sleep.

"Aunt Mo's aunt is still in charge of family affairs?" Xiaoqi asked.

"Everyone is still in control. My second son's family also came to Beijing. We used the money from our house. We were all covered by the money from our house. It happened that your brother-in-law had something to come back this time, but he didn't want to use it for a while. Then he asked the manager to divide the money in the account into two parts, one for my mother-in-law and the other for me to keep. After knowing it, my mother-in-law was angry for a few days and didn't dare to say anything in front of him. She just kept talking to me every day. When I was upset, I avoided her. She urged the West Courtyard to go and tell your brother-in-law that the West Courtyard was also brainless, and she actually said that your brother-in-law has not been there for three or four days. She sent someone to look for it in the middle of the night, saying that the child had choked and asked your brother-in-law to come and take a look. She had been tortured for most of the night and went to court. I changed my clothes and went to court this morning." I was worried about my husband's body. When I left this morning, my eyes were blue.

"Didn't your family always hire Doctor Chen?" When they were sick, they didn't see the doctor, and made a person who didn't know anything to mess with him. Aunt Lan was really willing to kill her child.

"How can she attract your brother-in-law's attention if she doesn't pretend to be miserable?" sighed, "How good is it like you, there is no mother-in-law on your back, and the two concubines dare not rely on others to make things difficult for you."

"Are you willing to give up on me? I'm afraid you won't be able to give up on your cousin Zhongsheng." Xiaoqi made fun of her with the words, and got Wu Shaojun's gesture of tearing her.

"I heard that your aunt named Zhao was punished by the master's house?" Wu Shaojun's ability to gossip is not weak at all.

"Who heard?" Xiaoqi was surprised.

"My mother-in-law's sister-in-law is your Qinchuan Li family. There are a lot of messy news. When it was said that when something was going on, the Zhao family wanted to sneak away when they saw that the situation was not good, and they also wanted to take their own girl away. For this reason, several children of the Zhao family were implicated. Those who lost their official positions were lost, and those who were demoted were demoted. All the people were affected." Wu Shaojun shook his head.

Xiaoqi was also very moved by this matter. I think the backyard is small, but it is very involved. I have to pay attention to it all the time in the future. "I don't want to make such a family scandal. If you ask any questions outside, please help me block it." No matter whether the matter in the backyard is good or bad, it is best to cause a lot of controversy.

"I naturally know this." Wu Shaojun responded.

The two sisters were having a happy chat, and Qinglian came in and replied, saying that the eldest wife of the East Mansion sent someone to invite Xiaoqi to come and discuss the matter of moving to the mansion.

Wu Shaojun was embarrassed to stop again, so he hurriedly resigned and returned home, just in time for her husband to come back from court.

The couple entered the Hanghuamen together.

A little girl in the West Courtyard was waiting at the door, saying that her second brother had been having trouble for another morning, and Lady Lan asked Mo Changmeng to take a look.

I had a fuss for half a night last night, and today I came again. Mo Changmeng was not stupid. Naturally, I knew that this was the little thought of the woman in the inner husband. It would be fine if I didn’t make trouble on him, but it would be fine if I pretended not to see him. Now that I have a fuss on him, I have to set rules.

He called Wu Shaojun and scolded the maids and mothers in front of a wife and a concubine. They were their laziness that caused frequent problems for the children. Moreover, if the child was not feeling well, it was another crime. The two crimes were punished, and the monthly punishment was punished. This resulted in Mrs. Mo. She was dissatisfied with her son's share of money. Now she found a reason to accuse him of being unfilial to his elders and not pity his young son. By the way, Wu Shaojun was also accused of not being able to take good care of the mother and son in the West Yuan, and so on.

"When my mother talks about the housekeeper's affairs, my son happened to have something to say. In recent years, my mother was in poor health and was busy with the marriage of her younger brothers and sisters. She was really too tired to do so. She was unfilial and only cared about the official duties outside. She rarely interfered in the affairs of the inner house. Fortunately, Shaojun has basically recovered now, so let her assist her in the mother in the future?" This was still on the way back to Beijing. His brother-in-law reminded Li Chu that his original words were: Why can he be at peace in the world if his family is uneasy?

Thinking about it, this is indeed the truth, especially in the past few days when my mother instigated the West Court to make trouble with him, which has seriously occupied his energy. If this continues, it is probably difficult for the family to be quiet, so it is better to return to the right track as soon as possible.

After hearing what his son said, Mrs. Mo was stunned for a moment.

"Brother's words sound like it's my mother who didn't take care of the housework?" The person who spoke was Mo Changting, the youngest sister of Mo Zhai, who was only sixteen years old. She was favored by her grandparents since she was a child, and even her father and brother were not too afraid.

"How could it be? Your elder brother is also out of filial piety, afraid that his mother will suffer." Wu Shaojun took Mo Changting's words and did not let their brother and sister meet directly.

"What do we do when we talk to each other!" Mo Changting never liked this sister-in-law. No matter whether it is background or personal talent, she could not match her brother. It was because the old lady of the Wu family was the Mo family's legitimate lineage, so she nodded.

"She is your sister-in-law and your eldest nephew's biological mother, why did she become someone else?" Mo Changmeng asked his sister.

Mo Changting sneered, "I don't know that you and your wife are now one." He glanced at Mo Changmeng, "The eldest brother is now becoming an official, and his temper is getting older. He actually forgot the teachings of the master's great master and picked up his mother."

Mo Changmeng frowned, but Wu Shaojun did not let him answer. After all, he was a brother and sister, and he was irresistible and it was difficult to return it in the future. Her sister-in-law was fine, so she replied, "No matter how big your elder brother is, he is just a commoner. He is not as good as those Dukes and Marquis. How dare you do things that go against your father and brother? Girl, don't make your brother so unrighteous to understand." The Dukes and Marquis in this sentence have a different meaning. Mrs. Mo told her little daughter to the youngest son of the Prince Zhuang Mansion under the banner of the Changning Mo family. Since the marriage was decided, their little aunt has become more and more agitated.

Mo Changting was naturally embarrassed and didn't care about what she could say and couldn't say anything. "How can some families compare to some people. In order to win the dragon and the phoenix, they rushed to marry two daughters. If the family failed, they could change their family. In other words, some people had a good life and didn't have the wife of the Duke and Marquis waiting for their husbands and children. If she really came, no one in the house would know."

How could Wu Shaojun not know what she meant? This is to understand that she is talking about the Wu family. The Duke and Madam who is prosperous and prospers refers to Xiaoqi. Although she pretends to be angry on her face, she is not angry in her heart. She originally wanted to lead to this passage from her sister-in-law. Only when she is told about it will her shortcomings be completely exposed. She just wants to take this opportunity to make up for her and the Wu family’s shortcomings at once!

Mo Changmeng naturally couldn't tolerate his sister saying such good things. He heard Xiaoqi's incident some time ago, saying that he wanted to marry him. Later, because Wu Chengjun died early, he married Li's house. No matter what twists and turns there were, the reality is that Xiaoqi became Li Chu's wife, and now he has a royal title. If this is nonsense, it may be spread like this. Will he and Li Chu still have the faces? Will the faces of the Mo family and the Li family still have?

Therefore, after listening to his sister's words, Mo Changmeng was furious.

He is Mo Zhai’s eldest son. If his father is not around, he is the head of the family. Teaching his younger siblings a lesson is a matter of duty.**

It was the first time that Mrs. Mo saw her eldest son get so angry that her crying was useless.

Mo Changmeng was trained in the negotiation field. Every word is sincere, but every word is heart-wrenching. The summary meaning is that her mistress listens to and believes in her side, does not understand the righteousness, does not teach her children, and teaches her daughter to be ignorant of her qualities and has no rules. In the long run, the family will be in a small way and will affect her descendants.

After a slap, the whole family finally became quiet. Mo Changting was so crying that she was being helped back to the boudoir. Mrs. Mo sat in the hall silently.

Mo Changmeng sued his mother and led his wife to retreat. Only Mrs. Mo and an old lady were left in the church.

Mrs. Mo suddenly covered her eyes, "He, is he teaching me a lesson for being a mother?"

The old lady comforted her, "How could it be? The eldest brother was teaching her sister just now, and her sister's in-laws' family is a royal family, so she naturally needs to teach her well."

"Are you talking about what he said for Changting? He was clearly inserting a knife into my heart! Why did I give birth to such a thing as a scattered person? I spent all my thoughts on him!" Mrs. Mo cried in a daze.

The old lady sighed, "The eldest brother has been a villain since he was a child, otherwise the old man in charge would not have asked him to go to the Imperial Academy. Now it is the time for him to be strong in the officialdom, so he naturally hopes that the back house will be stable and not cause trouble for him."

"I'm causing trouble for him?" Mrs. Mo cried with tears in her nose, "Do you think the girl in the Wu family can give birth? She was thin before giving birth to Brother Wen, and she couldn't even sit still after giving birth to Brother Wen. Even Brother Wen was in trouble. I said I couldn't agree to this marriage. The wife of the host said that there was a girl coming together in their family. Although I thought it was not nice, it was not uncommon for us like this family, but the Li family could give it to her! Who wouldn't marry a wife for the sake of prosperity? I brought up the girl Lan Yuan, just for her health and a lovable person? It turned out to be my fault."

"Isn't the unclean child? Can you not know what the wife is thinking? It's just that the house is too noisy. Last night I heard that I was called to the west yard for the middle of the night. I changed the court uniform this morning and went to court. I'm afraid I'm tired and upset." The old lady comforted her.

"Who told me to accompany you in the middle of the night?" Mrs. Mo wiped her tears.

The old lady signaled the next door, "The second brother has been choking these days and runs away at night."

"There are a lot of girls and women. If you don't help, there is still a doctor. What can you do when you come to him?" No matter who you prefer, you won't be able to work hard for her son.

Press down on Mrs. Mo's side, let's talk about Wu Shaojun and Mo Changmeng's side.

After the two entered their yard, Mo Changmeng deliberately slowed down, and Wu Shaojun almost hit him without paying attention.

"Only this time, I can't talk about Li's house next time." Mo Changmeng was so cunning that he couldn't see his wife deliberately guiding her younger sister to say that? "Who is Li Yanchu? Is there someone who arranged him like this behind his back?!"

Wu Shaojun stuck out his tongue secretly, without quibbling, "I've recorded it."

"In the future, you should pay more attention to the backyard. Although your mother is in charge of your family, you will still have to hand it over to you when you are old. Now you should learn it early." During this period in Qinchuan, I saw what the Li family's eldest wife Hei Shi did. He was really an exemplary mistress. Before the disaster, not only did the family manage the house in an orderly manner, but also won the reputation of the Li family as the government and the people. In addition, Li Chu's backyard, his wife and sister were young and had a big belly. In the crisis, she could actually control her family strictly. It can be seen that she had some effort. "We have parents and brothers and sisters at home, so we can't be more comfortable with your sister. You may have to work harder."

This was the first time that Wu Shaojun heard her husband comfort her. She was very moved, but she was a little disappointed. When would he not be so polite to her?

He was full of disappointment, but looking at his beautiful face, he couldn't help but want to forgive him.

"I specifically told the kitchen to cook the old duck soup you like. Now it's almost time to prepare. You have lost weight outside these days, so you should make up for it." As he said that, he put on his husband's arm.

Mo Changmeng was not used to pulling and pulling like this, so he lowered his eyebrows and looked at her hand.

But she pretended not to see it, just put on his sleeve and went into the room. Xiaoqi advised her several times, saying that she had children, so why are you afraid of? He wouldn't really push her away, right?

Although his expression was not very natural, he did not push her away.

Wu Shaojun gradually grasped the key points, no matter whether it was against her mother-in-law or her husband.
