"Da Zhi, you are about to give birth now, so you should be more careful. Just leave all the miscellaneous things in the house to the servants, but beware of fetal motility."
Ji Huazhen has lost her son, and now she seems to regard Chu Nanzhi as half a daughter.
Seeing her with a big belly and having to take care of so many things, I felt very worried.
"This kid Jinxiao is also ignorant. Government affairs are left to the officials of the state government. How can we ask Da Zhi to help take care of it?"
Cui's two sons are also stationed in the north and south respectively, and are not around all year round. Now the only one who can make her feel close is this sensible student.
"I don't know how many days Jin Xiao will be delayed in going north. Fortunately, our two old guys are here. From now on, let us take care of you together with your mother. You can finish the birth in peace and go about other things."
Not too late."
After Cui finished her serious instructions, she felt more or less resentful towards Lin Jinxiao in her heart.
"Two mistresses, don't worry. Anyway, I can't stop myself. I can do whatever I can while I can still move around more."
After Chu Nanzhi finished speaking, he led everyone to sit down and ordered A Chun and A Bi to lead the servants to bring jasmine shrimp and tofu soup.
Ji Huazhen only tasted it, then she nodded with joy and said, "It's indeed good. I didn't expect Jin Xiao to have such skills. I must have underestimated him."
Mrs. Cui tasted some and was full of praise.
Seeing that the two masters had lost all their temper, Sibaolin Ruijia happily interjected: "My father has learned a lot of dishes from my mother-in-law. It's a pity that he is not here now. When my father comes back, I will definitely
I want my father to prepare delicious food for the two masters."
Hearing this, the soup Ji Huazhen put into her mouth almost spit out.
He choked and coughed a few times, then replied with a stiff smile: "Your father is filial, and we are satisfied with this. It's just that your father has so many things to do today, how can he do these chores."
It had only been a year, but the down-and-out prince that the two families had been caring for was no longer what he used to be. I'm afraid it wouldn't be long before I had to kneel down and worship him again.
Let him cook and spread the word without sacrificing his life.
Along the way, Chu Nanzhi was most grateful to her two elders.
If it weren't for the two of them, how could he have gained the favor and recognition of the emperor and ancestors so easily.
The two old generals devoted their whole lives to the great cause of the imperial court, and they were sent to the bitter and cold border areas together with their sons.
Although she and Lin Jinxiao have now embarked on a beautiful road, she has never forgotten her original intention. She took advantage of this moment to sincerely discuss with Ji Huazhen and Cui:
"The reason why I brought the two masters to Langzhou this time is not just because the two elders have to take care of the affairs of the state capital for me. Several brothers are stationed at the border. The student wants to wait until Jingling City stabilizes and invite the masters.
We entered the capital together, and I can never be without the teachings of my two elders."
After a moment of silence, she looked at Ji Huazhen with a smile and said, "Besides, Master Ji and our ancestors have been separated for many years, and our ancestors are also thinking about you."
It seems that she wants to keep the two elders by Lin Jinxiao's side, but Ji Huazhen knows what this girl is thinking. She just feels that she and the old man are old and there is no one around them who knows how to take care of them. That's all.
She and Ms. Cui looked at each other, and replied with a wry smile: "Da Zhi, I understand your kindness, but you also know Mr. Chang's body and bones. He has been retired from the government and the public for many years, and he is already in his old age."
If someone who is 20 years old stays with Jin Xiao, it will be difficult for him to help him stabilize the situation in the government."
After a pause, the smile on her lips gradually turned deeper: "When I just entered the palace, I saw him and was extremely happy to see the official selection policy you gave me. The last time I saw him so excited after all these years of following him was last year.
When you were a student, it was obvious that he took this matter very seriously. Although I have the title of your master's wife, I am not as knowledgeable as you. However, I also know that the official system of the imperial court has indeed reached the point where it is time for reform.
Now that Jin Xiao has passed Yizhou, it will be a matter of time before he enters Jinling City, so let him burn the last remaining fire for you and your wife in Langzhou."
The so-called meritorious officials retire, this is probably the case.
As an emperor and a courtier, even if your husband still has some prestige, when the new king succeeds to the throne, he will accompany you like a tiger, and it is really difficult to predict what will happen in the future.
Ji Huazhen knew that her husband and Mr. Nie already had the idea of retreating, so she did not dare to make the decision for them anymore.
Ms. Cui nodded understandingly and agreed: "Da Zhi, Mrs. Ji, you are right. Both of your teachers are half buried in the loess. If you can help Langzhou Prefecture reform the official system this time, it will be considered a responsibility."
Our ancestors and Your Majesty have shown great respect to them over the years, and when Jin Xiao enters Jinling City, it’s time for us to return to our hometown to take care of ourselves.”
"But I still want to learn swordsmanship from Grandpa Chang."
Dabaolin Ruiwen didn't know why the two masters and grandmothers suddenly said these words. He looked at the two old people reluctantly and begged in frustration: "Masters, please promise your mother to come to Beijing with us. I will take care of you in the future."
Yours."
"Rui Wen, you two are all good children. When you enter Beijing in the future, you must study hard and practice your homework. Your father and mother will also find better husbands for you."
Ji Huazhen said with kind eyes and relief.
At this time, Chu Nanzhi also completely saw that the two elders had decided to leave.
Great sages like them who have served as officials in the government for decades know best the principles of being an official.
As Ji Huazhen said, now that Lin Jinxiao has entered Yizhou, the road to the north is basically unblocked, and their mission of protecting the late prince's unborn son has come to an end.
Kyoto is already a place where the dragon and the tiger are trapped, and if I try to force him to stay, he may end up harming the two elders in the future.
After thinking about it for a moment, she first comforted the little treasures: "Grandpa Chang and Grandpa Nie are indeed very tired after traveling with us for so many days. It will be a long time until the two grandpas help your father complete the reform of Langzhou's official system."
It’s time for them to go back to Luyan Port to take care of themselves, so you should follow these two grandfathers and ask for advice these days.”
When the little ones saw their mother saying something, they didn't dare to get angry anymore, so they had to obey obediently.
Sanbaolin Ruichong pulled Ji Huazhen and Cui and said playfully: "Master, you just said that you would not return to Luyan Port until after my mother-in-law gives birth. Anyway, there is still some time. Then let me take you to have a good time in Langzhou City.
Go around, Langzhou City is really fun."
"Okay, as long as you are obedient, anything is fine."
Ji Huazhen looked at the cute little guy with warm eyes. When these two people enter Beijing in the future, there may be no hope of seeing them again.
Therefore, she now cherishes the days spent with them very much.
Seeing the young and old cuddling together, Chu Nanzhi felt extremely complicated at this moment.
But there is no such thing as a feast that lasts forever. No matter how much you are reluctant to leave, you will have to let the two elders leave when the time comes.
Sighing secretly, he muttered to Tang Weiming and said: "Manager Tang, please choose a few more girls with more agile hands and feet to serve in front of the two old ladies. The weather in Langzhou is not as humid as Luyan Port, and it is about to get wet."
Xia, you must be extra careful in your yard. If you don’t have enough equipment to cool down, you should buy some as soon as possible.”
"Princess, please rest assured that the servants will be properly placed."
After Tang Weiming answered with a smile, Chu Nanzhi felt much more comfortable.
I just hope that these days when I have my two elders by my side, I can make them live as comfortably as possible.
In this way, the status of being their students was not in vain.
