Master Shi has never been in such pain. If he was asked to choose, he would rather choose this kind of sharp pain caused by his body. Growing so big... No! Not growing this big! How can he grow even if he is unshaven? He is old
Oh! Halfway through my life, I realized that a person’s heart can actually hurt so much.
Really! He was young when his mother passed away, and he was at the age when he didn’t know what fear was. Was he sad at that time? It must have been sad. But at that time, he really didn’t know what sadness was, what heartache was, and what loss was.
He lost half his life. When Huang Ama went there, was he sad? Sad! It was really sad. But there were many other things. The eighth child did not go up and the fourth child went up. He was too busy thinking about what to do in the future to care about being sad.
.I waited until I was able to take care of it, but I can never get that feeling back again.
But when it was Borzigit's turn, how could she be so sad? He himself felt uncomfortable. Is she beautiful? It has nothing to do with beauty. She has small eyes, single eyelids, and a flat nose. What about her skin, when she was young?
She still looked healthy and energetic, but now she was old, and Dolly was seriously ill and could recover. But there was just such a woman lying there, and he couldn't get enough of it. When he thought about never seeing this face again,
I felt a throbbing pain in my heart, as if all my energy and energy were taken away in an instant. It’s incredible to think about it. The two of them had been arguing for half their lives. They were only polite to say they were arguing, but they were getting annoyed.
There were many times when he touched the guy. He had hated, annoyed and even cursed. He had shouted more than once when they got into a fight. Sooner or later, he would divorce this woman and replace her with a happy Fujin. But in the end, he couldn't sleep and sat on his hospital bed at night.
He regretted it more than once before, and slapped her face with the big mouth. Why didn't he know how to let her go? At that moment, he thought, as long as you can be good, as long as you can be good to me
It doesn't matter what you do, as long as you have a woman at home who cares about you while waving a whip.
At this moment, his ears hurt from being bitten, but the tears he shed were even worse than before. He stretched out his arms and tightly held the thin woman with only a handful of bones in his arms. Shi Fujin suddenly stopped.
, is this person stupid? When he was bitten, instead of pushing him away, he hugged him tighter.
"Let go!" Shi Fujin pushed, but he was so weak that he couldn't move at all. But when he pushed his body back, he still noticed something strange. Drops of warm liquid dripped on his neck, and stayed on his chest along the shoulder socket, and he realized
When I realized what this was, I felt my heart was burning hot.
Lin Yutong felt very sad when he looked at it. He thought that the Tenth Master in history could be considered a miserable man. He lost his mother when he was young and his spouse in middle age. In his later years, his legitimate son Hongxuan also died earlier than him. All three major tragedies happened to him.
Even if he is a prince, he deserves to suffer these hardships no less than others.
Seeing the couple acting like this, Lin Yutong waved and led Wufujin, Jiufujin and the waiters inside to come out. After coming out, he nodded to the Fourth Master and told others that nothing was serious.
The fourth master immediately left the fifth master here to look after him, and also left the imperial doctors behind before taking Lin Yutong away.
As soon as he arrived at the gate, he met Thirteen who was dismounting. Thirteen was well-informed about the news in the palace, and after getting the news, he dropped the matter in his hands.
Seeing Thirteen on the snow about to salute, Fourth Master quickly stopped him, "Go in and take a look and then go back. It's okay!"
Thirteen hurriedly responded.
Lin Yutong then said: "My younger brothers and sisters have been here for a few days, so you can take care of them in the house." You are not young anymore, and you must not have anyone watching over you when you give birth to a child.
The fifth master who sent him out sighed with emotion, who would have thought that the fourth child would be like this after he ascended the throne. To be honest, he had more to worry about than Huang Ama. His sister-in-law was sick, and such a day happened. His younger brother's family also had a child.
For those who keep track of dates, Huang Ama asked him at that time how many children his family had and what their children's names were. The old man would definitely not remember.
The two of them stood at the door and watched the emperor and empress riding back to the palace with people, and then they hurried back, but before they could do it properly, the brothers came one by one. Even if the news was delayed a little, now
They've all arrived too.
The third master was old, so he sat for a while and then returned, without even seeing the old man.
Master Qi showed up, he was busy with something. According to the Xingtai County Magistrate of Zhili Province, a so-called Shuntian Sect appeared in Xingtai County. Because it worships the ancestor of Vacuum, it is suspected that it is a branch of Luo Jiao.
. This kind of thing is not careless at all, and it is still in Zhili. How can the land of Gyeonggi tolerate such evil spirits? Seeing that Lao Ten is really fine, he said to Lao Wu, "...I won't see Lao
It's ten, and my brother is leaving for Beijing overnight..."
The Fifth Master couldn't even ask. Who didn't know that the Seventh Master was doing secret errands now. He quickly asked someone to send him away. When Twelve came here, he just said a few polite words. On the contrary, he said
Fourteen said it was lively.
When Twelve left, there was no one to see him off. He stood alone in the snowy night for a long time, but finally smiled slowly. When Huang Ama was alive, Twelve, Thirty-four and others who were younger than him followed suit.
, why can’t I do it myself? They all have the same background, so no one is worse than the other.
Master Shi settled Fujin and asked the imperial doctor to take a look at him and tell him if he was in good health and that he should take good care of him. He felt relieved and sat down on the ground. Shi Fujin turned over and lay face forward.
I just had time to come out, and when I came out, Old Fourteen was sitting outside.
"Fifth brother was here half the night, and I asked him to rest when I came." The fifth brother is not young anymore and can't stand it anymore.
Master Shi touched his face. Even if he didn't come out, he knew that it was very lively outside with people coming in and out. All the brothers who were supposed to be here were here. He never expected that the one standing guard outside was Old Fourteenth.
The two of them had a very unpleasant quarrel because the Fourteenth had pried the Eighth's corner. But for many years, even if the two brothers were inseparable, they still hung out together all day long. In ten days, there were
Eight days together. Now time has passed. Master Shi rubbed his face and asked someone to bring wine. He didn’t want any food either. The two of them were just like two people. They were in the corridor on a snowy day. Who would recognize a jar of wine for each person?
Whose grandson can you cowardly?
Fourteen said, Brother Ten, don’t blame me, and don’t think that Brother Eight is the closest to you. All the brothers are here today, but Eighth is the only one who didn’t show up.
Lao Shi said who said that Brother Eight is the dearest, the dearest one is my Ninth Brother. My Ninth Brother is not here today, if my Ninth Brother is here... I don't like anyone.
Fourteen said you have a bad mouth and all the brothers have offended you. Just go live with your dear brother Ninth.
Lao Shi said you don’t have a bad mouth? Neither of us will be laughed at! If it weren’t for your brother sitting on top, the Queen Mother would still be alive and well. You are the one whose father does not care for your mother. Your brother is not waiting for you.
See you, I still have my ninth brother after all.
The two of them finished squirting on each other and drank half a bottle of wine before drinking it down. The people below were about to persuade the two of them to leave, but they didn't know what was said and they hugged each other and started crying again.
Old Ten said Fourteen, listen to what I said, don’t be a fool. Old Four is a nice guy and has been tolerant to you. Just go back to your errand. Working for someone is not selling! The old man obviously doesn’t like us.
, this cannot be blamed on the fourth person, we have to be reasonable.
Fourteen said Brother Ten, I am my biological brother. Even if I am a bastard, my biological brother will not really let me starve to death, and I will not lose even a cent of what I deserve. But you are different.
Don’t just recognize your ninth brother. If something goes wrong, the fourth brother comes without saying a word, that’s fine. For a brother like you who always troubles him, it’s interesting to do this today. After all, it’s the ninth brother.
Where is the Fifth Lord? So, you have to recognize this brother Lao Si, even if he shamelessly sticks to you, you have to recognize him...
The two yelled "Lao Si", "Lao Si", and everyone who was waiting on the table turned pale with fright. If the superiors found out about this, they would be charged with a crime of disrespect. The most the masters can do is reprimand, but they can't listen to these
If you are alive, you will have to wash your neck and wait for your head to be chopped off.
So he quickly called for Mr. Wu, who was resting in the guest room.
As soon as Mr. Wu closed his eyes, he was woken up again. As a result, he went over and saw that the two brothers were holding a jar in the cold weather, drinking in confusion, and dared to say anything out of their mouths.
He didn't want to scold these two idiots at the moment, but he scolded Lao Jiu in his heart. If it weren't for Lao Jiu, he wouldn't have bothered to care about Lao Ten. He looked pitiful just now, but now he started messing around again.
Already.
"Fifth Master, what do you think this is?" The waiter asked the Fifth Master in a low voice for his opinion.
"Separate!" The Fifth Master waved his hand, "Whose master will serve him! No matter what means are used to separate them and drag them back."
As soon as they were pulled away, the two brothers shouted "Tenth brother" and "Fourteenth brother", shouting at the top of their lungs as if they were bidding farewell to Bai Niangniang and Xu Xian.
This is terrible.
I don’t know if Fourteen’s words that night had an effect, but Lao Shi has been very well-behaved recently. He goes to court on time every day, and comes to the study after going to court. He doesn’t bother the fourth master, so he just grinds his comments.
When the fourth master saw the ministers, he consciously served tea to them, and then occupied the corner where Su Peisheng usually rested. He didn't listen or speak, and at most he ate some of the snacks and snacks prepared by Lin Yutong for the fourth master without anyone noticing.
Su Peisheng almost cried, this almost took away his job.
After pestering the Fourth Master for five days in a row, the Fourth Master couldn't bear it any more. He was the kind of person who would always stand by the door when he went to the toilet. He was very good at crawling along the pole. The Fourth Master originally planned to ask him to go to Mongolia after the Chinese New Year.
Take care of something, but now I can't send him away at all.
How to do it?
The Fourth Master found a booklet from the kang table and threw it to Lao Shi, "You take a look first."
Master Shi grabbed it as soon as he stretched out his hand. He smiled and opened it. After reading it, he was confused, "Fu Shou Ointment?" What happened to Fu Shou Ointment?
"Check!" The fourth master said, raising his head, his face became rare and serious, "Check the root cause! Who produced it? Who transported it? Who sold it? Let me find out everything clearly!"
Master Shi was stunned for a moment and said inexplicably: "After checking...what happens after?"
after?
The fourth master became cold and solemn all over, "If you go on an errand, you will be killed without mercy! Anyone who takes drugs will be dismissed from office, and those who have succeeded will be dismissed. No matter how high the title is, no matter how big the official position is, whether they are Manchus or Han
, as long as you touch this thing, you will be sent to the drug rehabilitation center for compulsory drug rehabilitation, and there is no room for bargaining."
Master Shi's hand shook. Although Lao Shi had sent those brats to investigate corrupt officials since he came to power, this was the first time he had so clearly stated that he wanted to kill someone.
But why?
When it comes to Fu Shou Ointment, he grasped a key word: "Quit | drug addiction?"
Is that thing poison?!
Master Shi was shocked! You know, the vassal states pay tribute to the royal family as the highest-end tribute every year. The emperor has two hundred catties per year and the queen has one hundred catties per year. What does this mean? It means that these subjects have bad intentions!
This is an attempt to murder the Qing royal family. You must know that precisely because it is a tribute, the price among the people is extremely expensive. Precisely because it is expensive, many people are interested in smuggling it from vassal countries. He has heard about it.
.And how can I say this? There are several old princes in the royal family who are fond of this. Are there any officials who smoke? There must be!
In an instant, the things in his hands became hot and he asked uncertainly: "Really check?"
The fourth master ignored him and waved his hand to tell him to get lost.
Master Shi really left, but what should he do after he left? He was really numb. When he walked home, he first looked at Fujin. Fujin was snoring after taking medicine. He quietly left again, thinking
After thinking about it, I found Fourteen.
Fourteenth was reading a letter from Qinghai in the study at the moment. It was reported below that Lao Shi was here, and he was stunned for a moment. Hey, this brother is a rare visitor. When he welcomed people in, Master Shi was not polite at all.
Seriously, let’s ask what Old Fourteen means, “…what on earth is this Fushou Ointment? We have never used it, but imperial doctors do use these things as medicine. Now Old Four… No! Now Long live the Lord says it is DU.
It's DU, I guess. But there are a lot of clans involved. What's going to happen if we keep going on like this? Something is going to happen! Can you really do this?"
Fourteen rolled his eyes, "Brother Ten, how can you be so honest! What do you care about other people's affairs? Who do you love? What if you cut off their titles? You shouldn't! You don't even think about how big this clan is now.
Each of our brothers will be either a prince or a county prince in the future, and there will be a lot of princes. This is already a lot. Long live the Lord also let out a group of young ones, all of whom are rushing to get the title. This is all
They are the children of our family, and they are all the grandsons of Huang Ama. Now speaking, they are all distant clans, and we are the close ones. If we don’t send away the distant clans, the palace alone will occupy half of the capital.
It’s worthless. Just check it! Are you afraid of offending people? If you check them, our brothers will remember your affection. Apart from anything else, in the future, if your family’s Hongxuan inherits the title, what will happen to Hong Shen? As long as there is
With my ability, I guess Long Live Master will not be reluctant to give up the title of Beile."
Master Shi was stunned when he heard that, maybe he said that the fourteenth and the fourth were born from the same mother. This is a disservice to no one. He had never thought about it like this before, but it was called Lao Si
What Fourteen said is true! If you kick out one more, the next generation of nephews will have one more chance. Otherwise, this clan is too big, and Long Live the Lord will not easily grant any more titles.
But if you think of a way to reduce your title, you can reduce your title. What method can't be used? Why did you think of such a harmful move? Smoking a cigarette is such a big sin!
Fourteen poked Master Ten with his arm and said in a low voice: "Let's talk behind closed doors. The Fourth is a bitch-tempered. But there is one good thing about him, that is, he does whatever he says. He said this
There is something wrong with Fu Shou Ointment, but I really can’t say there is something really wrong with this thing.”
Master Shi was stunned for a moment. He had to say that what Fourteenth said made sense. He also lowered his voice and said, "What do you mean?"
Fourteen spread his hands and said, "Your errand, what should I say?"
Master Shi listened attentively and finally heard this sentence, "Oh! He is also a slippery man."
After sending Master Ten away, Fourteenth picked up the news sent from Qinghai again, "Haha... I asked you to give me some advice? Only Laojiu believes you are a fool!"
Shi is really the number one person among these brothers. He is better at pretending to be stupid, pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger than anyone else.
Temporarily letting go of what Lao Shi said, he read the letter again and frowned. It seemed that Nian Gengyao's matter had to be dealt with as soon as possible. The trouble in Qinghai was severe, and he could not survive until the end of the year.
It won't be until spring next year, so we have to prepare.
Thinking like this, I was about to write a reply. But after thinking about it, I put it down. Lao Shi was right, Lao Si was really good to me. Besides, Lao Shi could drag him down to the palace and pester him, so what could he do?
You can't keep in touch with each other emotionally.
Thinking of this, I might as well ask someone to help me wash myself and get ready to go to the palace.
While he was soaking in the bathtub, Wanyan came in directly without announcing anything. Shi Shi was startled and shrank under the water, "Why are you running here? Is there anything you can't tell someone to tell you?"
?”
Wanyan glanced at Fourteen's exposed shoulders and curled her lips in disdain. She had only rested for half a year, and the muscles on her body were all soft and slumped, as if she cared a lot about it. She took the towel with a look of disgust on her face.
Turning behind Fourteen, he raised his hand and rubbed it on.
Shi Shi gritted his teeth in pain, "What do you want? Speak quickly."
"Are you going to the palace?" Wanyan asked, rubbing her armpits hard again.
Fourteenth half of his body shrank back, "If you don't go to the palace, what are you doing so early in the winter?"
Wanyan rolled her eyes and threw the bath towel into the tub, splashing it all over Shi Shi's face. She also looked impatient, "I'm impatient? I'm impatient! The cat is here every day."
You don’t care about anything in the study or at home.”
"What's going on at home?" Fourteenth took the towel on the side and wiped himself carelessly before getting out of the tub. "What's going on at home? Isn't it you? You asked me to ask you last time.
Do you want my mother to build a courtyard for our house? I don’t know when my mother will come and stay for two days. Well, I’ll go and ask. My mother sprayed me back. She said I was unreliable. What are you doing now?
What do you want to do again?"
Wanyan's hands are itching. She doesn't know what kind of people are good at. Other people's mothers and concubines have to be taken away. Her own mother-in-law is the queen mother, and it is not wrong to be raised by the emperor. The meaning of the queen mother is different and she cannot leave the palace.
Everyone knows it. But who asked you to ask the Queen Mother? If you want to ask, you should also ask Long Live Lord. If Long Live Lord is sympathetic to the Queen Mother and thinks that the Queen Mother will be bored in the palace all her life, it is not a bad idea to come out and walk around occasionally. Then there is no way to go anywhere else.
A better place for a biological son. You don’t have to stay, even if you go out for a meal, it will let the long live master know that you have filial piety. But you didn’t ask the person you should ask, and went directly to ask the Queen Mother. What can the Queen Mother say?
?Say that I want to live in the palace? Then others must not say that the Long Live Lord and the Queen are unfilial. Can the Queen Mother take the initiative to bring up this matter? What a pig. She still has the shame to blame herself.
It's impossible to argue with this person if you hold back your breath.
"Okay, okay! Just don't mention this matter. I won't mention it after it's over." Wanyan's fists loosened and tightened, "You have been back for almost a year, and you see the children in the house.
, you don’t think there’s anything wrong?”
What's wrong?
"My daughter-in-law is yours to take care of." Fourteen put on his clothes and took a sip from the warm tea beside him. "Don't tell me about this."
Who told you this?
"Didn't you realize that your daughter is getting older?" Wanyan was so angry that she didn't care about her coming back from home all these years.
My daughter is older?
Fourteen was stunned, "How old are you?" He really couldn't remember.
Wanyan doesn’t have a daughter herself, but if she doesn’t devote herself to her concubine, the Queen Mother will probably be annoyed. Besides, she’s already at this age, but when it comes to the dowry, she has to fulfill her duty. “Three
Gege, Si Gege, is one year old, and is now eighteen this year. Wu Gege, one year younger, is also seventeen." Three Gege, Wu Gege, were born to Shu Shujueluo, and Four Gege was born to Irgen Jieluo.
. Now it’s the time for filial piety. If it’s later, it will be later. But you have to decide the person in advance. When the time of filial piety comes, you don’t dare to delay at all and get your daughter married.
It’s so big!
Fourteen was stunned for a moment, "At this age...it's not bad. The royal family's daughter gets married late."
hehe!
Wanyan took out her handkerchief and casually brushed the non-existent dust on her body, "It's not too late, it's not too late." Just be happy. She's not my daughter anyway. I've said all that needs to be said, and the rest
What does it have to do with me if I don’t care about you?
Seeing Wanyan turn around and leave, Shi Shi was really dumbfounded. Don't say half of what you said! What's next? Find E Niang? Or talk to Long Live Lord?
She has already entered the palace, and Fourteen has not yet made up her mind. Children are not superfluous to any family. Girls stay at home, and there is no objection to being an amma. As long as they can afford to raise them, they have to go out.
Where is the child? But this won’t work.
After meeting the fourth master, he got down to business first and told the general situation in Qinghai, "...Yue Zhongqi...the twenty-first direct grandson of Yue Fei, the descendant of Yue Fei's third son Yue Lin...this person...his talent and character are all...
Above Nian Gengyao... he can be entrusted with great things..."
Seeing that Fourteenth did not recommend his direct subordinates to the top, Fourth Master looked at Fourteenth a few more times and agreed with Fourteenth's words, "...I will reply to the letter as you just said..."
Fourteen felt relieved. Fortunately, he had stabilized himself. If he had dared to recommend his own people rashly, he might not be able to pass the test so easily today.
He came to his senses only after he came out of the Imperial Study Room, and had forgotten what Wanyan said. Now go to the harem to find Eniang? Forget it, she was sprayed last time. The old lady has a very tough temper now.
Well, she just said that she wanted to live her life well, and if she asked her to go to her brother and sister-in-law for anything, she would not care. She would still kiss her mother, she was so cruel.
My brother had better forget it, he was busy. He turned around and went inside to find the Queen. It was only natural that the Queen should take care of this matter. Why should I worry about it? I remembered that the Wanyan family was the same. It was not okay for this clan daughter to get married.
They all refer to marriage. He sent me here in such a hurry, as if he couldn't wait to marry his daughter.
When the Fourteenth asked to see them, Lin Yutong was looking at the list of things that the concubines should take with them when they leave the palace. Then they looked at what rewards they should bring out.
When she heard that Fourteenth was coming, she put down what she was holding and asked Zhang Qilin to invite people in.
I originally thought that I was just here to pay my respects, but who would have thought that Fourteenth could be so straightforward, "... I'll leave the marriage of the three girls to the Queen's Wife. You can just watch it... Wanyan probably meant to ask us to advance the marriage."
I have a score, so I can inquire about the situation there..."
It's talking about marriage.
Lin Yutong said in his heart that Wanyan would not bother to inquire. I am afraid that the daughter is too old and she is still carrying the burden. There are many royal princesses who are getting married this time. This is for fear of good.
They all pointed it out to others. The three of them failed to catch up. Then the fourteenth will blame her again.
But what can Lin Yutong say about this?
She was even more straightforward, "You just have to look at each other with your younger siblings. It depends on which family has the best offspring. Once the two families have made an agreement, then we can just ask Long Live the Lord to propose marriage."
Um?
Fourteen blinked and looked at Lin Yutong, what does this mean? Does this mean that my three daughters no longer need to be touched?
This grace seems a bit big!
He wanted to ask, have you discussed it with my brother?
Zhang Qilin shook his head silently at the side, that was really not negotiable. The queen is getting more and more courageous now.
Lin Yutong didn't talk nonsense to him. It was a big deal for the concubine to leave the palace. There are only a few auspicious days in a month. They are all squeezed into these few days. Cars and horses are mobilized and people are arranged. There are many things. Seeing that the fourteenth is still not moving, just
Ask: "Is there anything else?"
Fourteen shook his head, it's okay! It's really okay! He has never seen a woman who does things so openly.
After returning home, she still muttered to Wanyan: "Look at the fourth sister-in-law, look at you again. The fourth sister-in-law speaks so openly, look at you again, you are so thoughtful. Aren't these three girls crawling out of your belly?"
, you go around avoiding suspicion. Just look at the fourth sister-in-law and make the decision, without any ambiguity."
"That means Long Live Master believes in her." Wanyan looked at him sideways, "Do you want to believe me that I will come to see the marriage of these three girls?"
Fourteen scratched his neck and said, "Just take a look!" He said and left, "Then you can take a look. If you like it, I will go and ask for the marriage."
Now it's the salt water player's turn to be dumbfounded. She wishes she could give herself a slap in the face to tell you to talk too much.
Shi Shi laughed in his heart, asking you to look at me, you dare not be careless, even if it is not bad, it is not bad. She has a mouth like a knife, but she really doesn't have such a cruel heart.
Wanyan thinks she is annoying, almost to death. She has three concubines in a row who are getting married at such an advanced age. Where can I find a suitable son-in-law? Can I stop being annoyed?
But who wouldn’t be annoyed?
San Fujin held the mirror and looked at the wrinkles in the corners of his eyes, "I am about to marry my granddaughter-in-law and become a mother-in-law. Now I have to start over again and learn to serve my mother-in-law as a daughter-in-law..." What kind of fate is this?
The third master hated San Fujin saying this the most. As soon as he heard her complain, he immediately retorted: "Are you impatient? Where's the patience?" I'm so used to living a pampered life that I can't bear the slightest grievance. Besides, serving my mother-in-law is not the right thing.
Is it just and right? Why are you wronged? What are you complaining about? I left my mother to live with my elder brother when I was six years old. More than 40 years have passed, and I can finally live with my biological mother again. This kind of little mood tells Fujin that this woman is just
I'm afraid I can't understand it either. Or it's better to explain it. Last night I was chatting with myself about my biological mother. She is young, but she is reasonable! She said in a small voice that she was happy for herself, and she said that she was really happy and happy.
, I was in a bright mood when I opened my eyes in the morning. But Yiyi Fujin, all this good mood was gone. His face suddenly fell, "Today my mother is leaving the palace, don't make yourself uncomfortable, I'm telling you
.Other times, I can ignore it, but not this time. From now on, we can discuss everything. The only thing is, if something doesn’t go well with my mother, don’t blame me for ignoring the love between husband and wife for half a lifetime."
San Fujin turned his back and rolled his eyes. He was just complaining and complaining. Didn't he even know this? How long can Princess Rong live if she is not afraid of taboos?
The couple made a tacit agreement not to bring up this topic. They checked the courtyard that had been prepared for the last time before entering the palace to pick up the people.
When we arrived at the palace gate, we met Lao Wu and Lao Ba.
The fourth concubine at that time, Concubine De, became the Queen Mother in the palace, and the remaining three concubines were naturally ranked in front of the other concubines when they left the palace. The fifth concubine was concubine Yi, and the eighth concubine was concubine Hui.
Compared with the joyful mood of Lao San and Lao Wu, Lao Ba always felt that something was missing.
After entering the palace gate, there was a sedan chair and chariot, but no one from the three families was using it. Today I am picking up people, but I am also thanking you, and you don’t even have this bit of sincerity?
In fact, Fourth Master and Lin Yutong really didn't care about these false courtesy, but unfortunately no one believed them.
Early on, Fourth Master and Lin Yutong were waiting at the Queen Mother's place.
The Queen Mother has been in good health in the past six months. Perhaps it is because she has a broad mind and is fat, and there are signs of gaining weight. The fourth master asked people to make billiards and kronen balls for the Queen Mother to entertain, but the Queen Mother does not have much time to play with these two things.
, but Hong Zhou came over to play from time to time. Later, the Fourth Master asked someone to make bowling, and the Queen Mother slowly started to play. When the two came over, the Queen Mother had just finished exercising, and she was dressed in a short game, and her face no longer looked depressed.
.
He was especially affectionate towards Lin Yutong, maybe because he knew that he would not let the daughter of the old fourteenth family caress Meng.
We had breakfast together. The fourth master peeled the apple with a knife, cut it into pieces and gave one piece to my wife and one piece to my wife. He listened silently to the conversation between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
Lin Yutong laughed with the Queen Mother and said: "The Third Master is easy to talk to, but I'm afraid that the Fifth Master will take Concubine Yi home and the Ninth Master will cause trouble when he comes back. He also went to run errands for Long Live Master. I don't see E Niang when I get home. How dare you come to the palace?"
Do you believe it or not that I will seek compensation from Lord Long Live?"
The Queen Mother laughed and said, "Believe it! Why don't you believe it? Lao Wu was kind enough to let Lao Ninth go." As she said that, she patted Lin Yutong.
I just want to say that you two are kind-hearted. If you hadn't given up to Lao Si4, her life wouldn't have been so comfortable.
Lin Yutong pursed her lips and smiled, and the Queen Mother continued: "Don't be afraid of Lao Jiu making trouble, his mother is watching. It is my mother's blessing to have sons fighting over him."
The Fourth Master handed another piece of fruit to the Queen Mother, "Then my son will ask the Fourteenth Brother to come in and give him a scolding, and ask him why he didn't compete with me for his mother-in-law?"
The Queen Mother was about to say that Fourteen didn't dare. Fourteen had said before that she wanted to go out to live, but she had stopped her. But when she looked up, she saw the smile that had not disappeared from the eyes of the fourth, and she was stunned at that time.
Okay. Did the fourth child say this on purpose, to tease himself? For more than 40 years, mother and son have been very strict with each other. Where has the fourth child been seen like this?
Her eyes immediately became moist. Did she, a girl like her, miss it?
The Fourth Master lowered his eyelids, "What's going on? I'm so sad? Then I'm really in trouble."
The Queen Mother then smiled, the corners of her mouth slowly raised, and the smile spread from the corners of her mouth to the bottom of her eyes, "Hit! Hit hard! You really deserve a good beating."
As she said this, she couldn't help but laugh. The decades of estrangement seemed to disappear in this moment.
The waiters in the room were very happy. Aunt Ping came over to refill the tea. When she saw her, she said, "I really feel aggrieved for the Fourteenth Master. The Fourteenth Master came here with filial piety, but who scolded him away with just a few words."
Look, old slave, there is no one else who is biased in this world except the Queen Mother."
This means that the person the Queen Mother favors is the Fourth Master.
No one who was joking and laughing took it seriously. After a while, the fourth master said: "If you are bored and want to go out, ask Shi Shi to take you out for a walk. It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter if you just want to stay with Shi Shi for a few days."
…”
The Queen Mother waved her hand and said, "I'm not going. Those couple are different from you two. They didn't have to do anything when they lived there. They had to be busy settling lawsuits for them all day long." Even after living in the palace for a lifetime, what's the point?
Is it something I can’t understand? These concubines have left the palace, and it seems like it’s a good thing to reunite with their children and grandchildren. But if they really go out, they may not really be able to enjoy happiness. Every family has a lot of children and grandchildren, and the grandchildren are the children of the concubines.
You have to get a wife, and your granddaughter has to get married. When there are more children and grandchildren, there will be more things to do. This one will get more, and that one will get less. You are fighting for me all the time. Do you think it is necessary to control it or not?
If you can't control it, where will the people be? Thinking of this, she couldn't help but shake her head, let's see, maybe the excitement is behind it.
While things were going on here, three concubines came over, followed by their sons and daughters-in-law, who came to express their gratitude.
The Queen Mother quickly sat down without being asked to salute, "It suddenly occurred to me that it has been fifty years!"
Fifty years!
The four of them sat facing each other, all feeling a little emotional. They had fought and argued, and without that person, there was nothing to fight for. Before, it seemed that Miyagi was happy, but it was time to leave.
Only then did I realize that I couldn’t let go. I have been in this palace for fifty years! All my life, together with all the people I have loved and hated in this life, are all here, and they will stay here forever...
