As soon as she went out to inquire, Nanny Xia felt a thud in her head, and then another thud, as if the bells and drums of so many temples and nunneries in the capital were all in her ears.
The young master has an outhouse and lives in Narcissus Alley.
The young master was exposed at the academy and was taken to Shuntian Mansion for questioning. Only after questioning did he find out that he had let an outside room steal the questions.
It’s not unusual for the young master and Miss Zheng Liu to fall into the water, but the young master is chasing the princess, so what’s going on?
Why didn’t the princess tell her about this in the temple?
Ouch!
Is it ridiculous to be chased by a younger brother when he is clearly discussing marriage with his older brother?
Everyone in the princess's little girl's family must be so embarrassed that they can't speak!
What a shame!
Extremely unlucky!
Who wants her, Aunt Xia's girl, to encounter such an embarrassing thing? She can go out of her way to yell at her.
In this way, Uncle Chengyi is really humble and decent, and the princess is also kind and obedient. When encountering such an unfortunate thing, they try to make it as small as possible and make it as small as possible, leaving each other with steps.
But, how should she tell Madam?
Aunt Xia is so sad.
If you don’t mention it at all, it’s definitely inappropriate.
What are the things that the young master is doing!
One-five-ten, Madam, why are you so angry?
Raise an outside room?
Stealing questions?
This is what a serious gentleman can do?!
There was also the part about chasing the princess. Although the young master probably didn’t know about it at the time, it was so embarrassing after all.
No wonder the Duke would rather stay alone in the Duke's mansion on New Year's Eve than come to the Liu family to show his face.
Aunt Xia slowly walked back along West Street.
On the left and right sides, there are lanterns and colorful decorations in preparation for the Lantern Festival.
Yes, the talent after tomorrow will be Shangyuan.
It’s not even the end of the New Year.
Really, it’s Chinese New Year, how can you tell your wife such terrible things!
I don’t want to say it, I don’t want to say it, but I really dare not not say it.
Aunt Xia sent the others away and talked to Xu Miao alone.
Carefully, start with the “lightest” ones.
"There is an outsider who followed me back to Beijing from the academy..."
Xu Miao's face turned red and white, and she asked in a trembling voice: "Mom, are you sure you're not mistaken? Xun'er, he has a little one outside?"
Aunt Xia nodded: "That's right."
Xu Miao's eyes were filled with stars, and she held Nanny Xia's hand: "Does the Yunyang House know about this?"
The two families have agreed to get married, but the uncle is raising a foreign wife. Where does this Yunyang uncle's house leave Miss Zheng?
Isn’t this a slap in the face?
Even if the relationship between the young couple is not harmonious in the future, it is wrong to have an extramarital affair.
What's more, Miss Zheng hasn't even come in yet!
Aunt Xia made a bitter face and said: "I know, everyone outside knows, because of her, the young master asked her to steal the questions, and she went to the Yamen."
Xu Miao covered her chest.
She could hear every word in these words clearly, but when they were put together, why did she hear them so confused?
When Aunt Xia explained everything clearly from beginning to end, Xu Miao sat blankly for a long time, unable to say a word.
Is that her son?
What will Xun'er look like?
It was too strange, so strange that she could not face her own son.
Tears fell down and wet my clothes.
"I don't know at all," she murmured for a long time, her voice so soft that she couldn't hear it. "I don't know at all."
Aunt Xia felt sour and carefully leaned over to listen.
"Xun'er didn't dare to tell me, and the master didn't tell me either. They kept it secret from me."
"Since Xun'er returned to Beijing, I have been absent-minded and preoccupied several times. It turns out that's how it is."
"If these scandals happen, it will be difficult for me to deal with them both in front of the emperor and among my colleagues."
"I have to clean up the mess for Xun'er, and I have to do my best to hide it from me. He is very upset."
"Why are you hiding it from me? Xun'er is his son and also my son. If the son does something wrong, the parents must teach him together. Am I the kind of mother who protects the calf and won't let me control or teach him?
”
"Because during those years in the academy, my master and I were not around, so Xun'er ran wild."
"It's not too late to make up for it, Xun'er still has time to discipline him."
Seeing her like this, Aunt Xia comforted her with kind words: "Don't be impatient for now. Let's discuss it together when the master comes back and listen to what he wants."
Let’s not mention the part about the princess for now.
It would be really bad if I made my wife sick.
Later in the evening, Liu Jing returned home after socializing with his colleagues.
As soon as I walked in, Liu Xun invited me to the study.
"My mother found out that I was injured, so I did as you taught me, and my mother believed me."
Liu Jing's eyebrows tightened: "How could she find out? Did you go to him?"
"No way! I was staying in the study by myself, and she came back from outside and came to the study to talk to me, but..." Liu Xun curled his lips.
Liu Jing sighed.
Madam is not good at thinking about other things. People around her are sick and in pain, and it really can’t be hidden from her eyes.
Whenever Xun'er's movements are a bit unnatural, they will be seen.
It’s a good thing that I was taught rhetoric beforehand.
That set is enough to deal with my wife.
Liu Jing went to the backyard.
The main room is brightly lit.
Aunt Xia withdrew knowingly, leaving the couple alone to talk.
"Xun'er is injured, I shouldn't hide it from me." Xu Miao said.
Liu Jing apologized: "I just don't want my wife to worry about it."
"It's only natural to worry about your children," Xu Miao insisted, "I only know today what wrong things Xun'er has done outside!"
Liu Jing's breath froze slightly.
Xun'er is the one who doesn't live up to expectations!
He said "mother believed it", but his mother didn't seem to believe it at all!
"Madam, what have you heard?" Liu Jing held Xu Miao's hand and asked softly.
Xu Miao said everything one by one.
Liu Jing let out a long sigh, and fatigue suddenly appeared in his eyes.
"It's really difficult to raise children," he smiled wryly and shook his head repeatedly, "Jian followed his grandfather, and we didn't even worry about it.
A-Ping is a girl, and her upbringing is different from that of boys. She is usually more attentive as a wife.
I taught Xun'er a lot, and my wife assisted me. He was a good kid when he was young. Who would have thought that after not seeing him for a few years, he would...
Oh, madam, teaching children is much more difficult than studying and taking exams by myself!"
Xu Miao lowered her eyes.
Isn’t it difficult!
How many parents have turned their hair gray worrying about raising their children!
"Master, you shouldn't hide it from me," Xu Miao said, "You are busy with official duties in the court, and there are always times when you can't take care of it. You have to let me share more of the burden."
Liu Jing said: "My wife has taken care of my family and A-Ping. It has allowed me to have no worries for so many years, and I can express my ambitions in the court. I am extremely grateful.
Xun'er's problem is that I didn't handle it well and ignored the role of a mother in educating her son.
Madam is right, let's put more thought into it together and correct Xun'er.
It's too late today, call Xun'er tomorrow, and the three of us will sit down and have a serious talk first."
Xu Miao nodded.
Liu Jing went to the inner room to freshen up, wiped his face, and frowned.
I have to give Xun'er a good warning tomorrow, it's really unreliable!
Outside, Xu Miao closed her eyes and rested her mind.
She communicated smoothly with Liu Jing and reached an agreement.
But why does she still feel uneasy in her heart?
There was no need to rush, she had to think about it again, think about it carefully...
