Incomplete crossing

Walking to the gate of the Duke's Mansion, Jia Kang opened the curtain first and walked out. Although he was not the original body, but he didn't know what happened in his heart about the matter of returning to the door, but he seemed very excited, his heart was racing. When he jumped, he couldn't wait to run out before the carriage stopped.

There was a couple standing at the door, the man had a big belly, the woman was graceful and luxurious, with deep wrinkles around her eyes, Jia Kang threw himself into the woman's arms without thinking, "Mother."

"Hey!" Li's tears welled up in her eyes. Although the son she gave birth to was not pampered since childhood, she had never been wronged. Although there were many slanders against her son in the market, she thought that as long as her son was safe, there would not be many. What do you want, but a decree, let the son marry someone else like a woman.

Not to mention that he is the only child of the Duke's mansion, the emperor actually persecuted them like this regardless of his father-in-law's contribution to Daqi.The Duke's Mansion said it sounded good, but in fact it had no real power. They didn't even have the ability to say no to the emperor's decree.

Thinking of this, Li Shi couldn't help feeling sad, her poor child...

The Duke’s name is Jia Jiaxu. Don’t look at the big belly. He was also a fierce general on the battlefield at the beginning, but in recent years, the weather has been good for Guotai Ankang, so he couldn’t go to the battlefield. Mrs. Li is famous for his superb cooking skills, so he has such a little Happy fat.

Looking at his majestic face, he seemed unmoved by external objects, but in fact, at this moment, his heart was surging, and he was also full of guilt for finding an only son.

"Father." Jia Kang wiped away Li Shi's tears, turned around and nodded to Jia Xu.

Jia Xu also nodded to him, and before he could say anything else, Mrs. Li couldn't wait to take Jia Kang's hand and walked in, and as she walked, she ordered, "I will take all the pastries I made for the young master to the gazebo." , and the clothes I made for the young master, I also took them and let the young master have a look, by the way, master," she finally turned her head and said a word to Jiaxu, "You treat the prince well, I feel a little uncomfortable , go to rest first."

Her footsteps were windy, and without waiting for Jia Xu's reply, she dragged the trotting Jia Kang to the backyard.

Jia Xu's complexion was not very good. When he turned his face to see King Hong, he became even more unhappy. He cupped his hands and said, "My lord came from a long way away. Please come in."

Si Chenghong rubbed his nose, wondering if the Duke remembered that he came with Jia Kang, and he was already the Duke's son-in-law.

Si Chenghong went in behind Jia Xu, and chatted about some things along the way, such as how to deal with the floods in the south of the Yangtze River, the freshness of the dishes brought in by the Duke's mansion a few days ago,...

"Mother, I'm fine, don't worry."

Li's eyes were red and swollen, obviously she didn't just cry when she saw Jia Kang, she touched Jia Kang's face, "Look at it, it's only been a few days, my son's face has lost weight, it's amazing Mother, why don't you worry, woo woo..."

"Mom, I'm fine. I'm wearing black clothes today. The black clothes just make me look thinner."

Li Shi: "Really?"

Jia Kang: "Of course it's true. If you pinch it, my face is covered with flesh. There's no way I'm thin."

Mrs. Li pinched it, and it did feel good, but she still felt that Jia Kang had lost weight, so she pulled him to sit down and said, "Come on son, these are your favorite pastries, eat some, I'm sure you won't be as good as yourself in the palace." You are comfortable at home, and I will come home often in the future, and my mother will make cakes for you."

"Hey, mother I know."

"Hey, isn't this the prince who got married a few days ago... Oh bah, he can still be called the prince now, after all, he is already married." Xiao Xu fanned her peach blossom fan, and walked over here in a graceful manner. , speaking vicious words in a shrill voice.

Seeing her coming, Mrs. Li curled her lips and said, "Master, this is the only son. He is not the son of the world, who else can be."

Mrs. Xu snorted coldly, sat on the side, picked up the snack, turned her fingers over, rolled her eyes and said, "Hey, a countryman is just a countryman, what kind of food do they eat, hmph."

After finishing speaking, she threw the dessert away, and the maid Qin Xiang handed over the handkerchief, she took it and wiped her fingers as if something dirty was on them.

The corners of Li's mouth twitched. Seeing Xiao Xu's madness, he took a deep breath and said with a smile on his face, "Why do my brothers and sisters have the leisure to come to the garden? If it's not that uncle disappeared again, come to look for him in the garden?"

Jiaxu's younger brother, Jiayu, is a "talented man". What he likes most is hanging out with women in the garden and living in a mansion. There are many excitements to watch. Since Mrs. Xu actually made fun of Jiakang, Mrs. Li will not Willing to give her face.

In the past, Mrs. Li gave way to Mrs. Xu. After all, Mrs. Xu was the nephew of the old lady in the Duke’s Mansion. Mrs. Li was not to be favored, and she did not want to conflict with her elders. But since receiving the imperial decree, Mrs. Xu has always She said some flirtatious words in front of her with a gun and a stick, and she had tolerated it before, but now that Jia Kang came back with great difficulty, Xiao Xu dared to come here to find a sense of existence, how could Li Shi spare her.

Little Xu's complexion was really bad, but she covered the corner of her mouth, and quickly adjusted back, with a smile on the corner of her mouth, as if she couldn't understand Li's sarcasm, and continued: "But the dukedom of this country is hereditary, since Jiakang has already If you are married, you are no longer a person who has passed through the Duke's mansion, I am afraid... the imperial decree to take away (chǐ) the son of the prince will come down in a few days."

"Since the imperial decree has not been issued for a day, my son will be the eldest son for a day. I am afraid that my younger siblings will be disappointed. Our Duke said that the Duke's mansion cannot live on a title. From now on, each will go his own way. The title of duke will no longer be accepted after we Jiakang."

"What?" Little Xu couldn't sit still, she waited for Li, and scolded: "You poisonous woman, you actually did such a thing, I must tell mother."

"Tell me and tell me." Li said with a smile, "I used to be patient, and I didn't see you know anything about me. Besides, now, if you want to say it, you can say it. The Duke's Mansion has already told the emperor, the emperor I also agreed, if you want to say it, you can go as you please, I want to see if it is the emperor's words that are effective, or your words are effective."

"Poisonous woman, poisonous woman." Xiao Xu jumped her feet angrily, but she knew in her heart that if what Li said was true, she really couldn't do anything with Li, but now no one in the family knew about it, she Be sure to tell your aunt first.

Jia Kang looked at the domineering Li Shi with admiration, he didn't expect his mother to be so powerful, he wanted to help at first, but in the end he didn't use it at all, that bad woman was dismissed in a few words, she didn't threaten at all strength.

Seeing Jiakang's appearance, Mrs. Li knew what Jiakang was thinking, pulled him to sit down, and told him: "Your second uncle's family is not easy to get along with. Today, mother made her feel ashamed. I'm afraid they will take money from you." Find it, if you meet them at home, don't pay attention to them, when the time comes, mother will vent your anger on you."

"It's okay, mother," Jia Kang patted the back of Li Shi's hand, "I can still suffer, don't worry."

Mrs. Li couldn't let her mind rest at all. Although Jia Kang was excellent in martial arts, he was not good at speaking. Besides, those people were a bunch of shrews. She didn't want her son to conflict with them, but they were aggressive. If she didn't fight back, I'm afraid And they're going to push their feet again.
