Better to live forever [Rebirth]

Chapter 229 The first appearance of the edge

For the weather in Luojing, this year's winter is a rare warm winter.

The old lady sent Zhu Dingbei's newly made winter clothes to the mansion for half a month and hadn't been used for half a month, so she hastened to make a light and thin cloak. Zhu Dingbei can put it on if the wind blows when he goes out. , lest the clothes be thin and catch a cold.

At the beginning of October, the old Marquis had already presented to the emperor saying that he was old and his young grandson had grown up, and asked for permission for Zhu Dingbei to attack the noble.This news made the Luojing family lock their eyes on the Zhenbeihou Mansion once again.

Zhu Dingbei, the only son of the Zhu family, although the old marshal Zhu Chengyuan returned to Beijing as a hostage for the first two years, how many pairs of eyes looked at this son of the Zhu family who was so hard-won.However, he has no knowledge of literature and history, and has a rough temperament. The only thing that can make people praise him is his martial arts. It didn't take long for him to be seriously injured by gangsters, and he fell into a chronic illness.In this way, it can be said that the grandson of Zhenbei Hou is useless, right?

But at the same time, he also made good friends with the most elite families in Luojing, not to mention the others, that is the Changxinhou Mansion with the highest family. The concubine's connections or private activities wanted to make friends with the Ning family, but the naturally cold-hearted Lord Changxin didn't take a fancy to him, not only the children of the aristocratic family, even the children of the royal family didn't get good looks from him a few times, but However, this son of the Zhu family who returned to Beijing from a wild place like Xianbei fit his temperament, and the two of them went to school together. Over the years, Lord Changxin has not shy away from being close to the Zhenbei Houfu, sending him off on New Years and holidays. Not to mention the gift list, it is also common to stay overnight in the Beihou Mansion of Zhenzhen.

Counting them down, Luo Jing's high-ranking family was surprised to find that apart from the above, they knew nothing about this grandson of the Zhenbei Marquis!

This is because this son of the Zhu family is too independent and has always lived in seclusion. Among his peers, he has never participated in gatherings such as spring outings, summer lotus appreciation, autumn chrysanthemums, and winter chrysanthemums. I can't remember what it looked like.

Only then did they realize that, compared with the aristocratic family that was dealt with by Xianbei officials and fell into the mud from the cloud, the Zhenbeihou Mansion, which was supposed to be on the cusp of the storm, went to the Marquis without any danger. Inheritance continues today.In their impression, Zhu Dingbei, who was lingering on the sick bed, also changed his previous refusal to stay thousands of miles away, and began to appear in the gatherings of the children of the aristocratic family one after another.

For example, this time at the hot spring poetry banquet, although he was not arty, but as the owner of Changning Villa, he waived all the money for the banquet. It is the best soup pool in Changning Mountain Villa, which makes the guests come back happily.

Speaking of where to go in this winter, apart from hot spring pools, beautiful bones, red plums and white snow, the children of the aristocratic family have no other fun.This year's plum blossoms are also blooming later than in later years, so there is only a beauty bone left, commonly known as the place of fireworks.

This year, Hualiu Street has a new look. It is said that the grandson of Zhenbei Marquis who doesn't like to go out has hired all the female champions of this year, and vowed to give them to the high and low. They lingered in the flowers for days, so happy.He is so generous and spares money, some people will inevitably say that he is a sick child, let alone arrange the room. I am afraid that no one in the house has ever touched a woman's hand. Have you enjoyed your blessings yet?I just don't know if his body can bear the grace of the beauty.

Others laughed when they heard it, but the next day the person who said this would be tied up and sent to a brothel. In the girl's room, it was said that the master spent money to invite the girls to prostitutes today, but he was dragged into the room to do business.From then on, when those sons and brothers saw Zhu Dingbei, they took a detour!

There are also a few who want to seek justice and regain their place. However, the descendants of Zhenbeihou are weak, but none of the soldiers in Zhenbeihou's mansion are vegetarians. If they start fighting, the ordinary soldiers and family members are not opponents at all. And no one would find Zhenbeihou's mansion unhappy because of such indecent things.

At this point, some of the descendants of the aristocratic family who did not pay attention to the non-existent descendants of the Marquis of Zhenbei in the past understood that although he is still a white man who has not won the title, he can't stand his family's stubbornness, and there is only such a son. To be unhappy with him is to be unhappy with the entire Zhu family.Can the Zhu family be easily provoked?The family is full of killing gods, and they are all vulgar and unreasonable masters in front of His Majesty the Emperor. It is better to keep them at a respectful distance.

But it is very strange that Zhu Dingbei's reputation is getting more and more dandy, but he is getting better and better in the circle of the children of the aristocratic family.

The children of the minister's family of the Military Aircraft Department always disagreed with him when they saw his appearance of being incomprehensible in civil and military affairs, but Young Master Sun of the Forbidden Army Commander's Mansion, who holds the real power in Luojing's military, called him "Brother" when he saw him. The eldest son of Wei Zhang's mansion was humble and respectful in front of him, so they had no choice but to greet Zhu Dingbei with smiles.

That's all for the military officer, the descendants of the Wenchen family have already received the family's lecture, no matter how incompetent the Zhu family's son is, and the Zhenbei Hou's mansion will make two more proposals, the matter of him attacking the noble after the spring is basically a fixed number, and the future Representing the Zhenbei Hou Mansion, the serious prince who holds the iron scroll of Danshu in his hand and receives the salary of the first-rank military marquis of the imperial court, he can't offend him no matter what he says.

Such and such made Zhu Dingbei flatter him from left to right. Usually, when the carriage was on the road, there were a few friends who would stop and call each other brothers.

Sometimes he would go out to drink and would not come late at night, so the old lady would always say: "I used to be afraid that you would be bored in the mansion and become strangers to those classmates and peers outside, but now you have become more and more wild, and you feel like your butt is burned at home. Can't even sit still."

Zhu Dingbei smiled and said: "Grandson knows his mistake, after the New Year's Eve, he will cultivate himself at home and study ink and mount paintings for grandma."

The old lady smiled and said that he has become more and more pleasing in the past few years, and finally said: "You guys always have your own reasons for doing things outside. Grandma has no other requirements, as long as you bear in mind that our Zhu family has no regular wife and no concubines. Family rules, don't mess with women outside who don't know the details, it will ruin the serious marriage."

Zhu Dingbei hurriedly said: "Grandmother must keep in mind what she taught her grandson. However, the matter of this marriage should be put aside for the time being, grandma. Have you forgotten what Master Huiqing said? You value someone's daughter here, but we here There is no fixed number. When you turn back and marry a woman, aren’t you just embarrassing yourself? Why don’t you pay more attention to my elder sisters and others? The fifth brother-in-law has a funeral at home. After the hot filial piety in March, I will bring Yue Yuan’er and Zizheng over to accompany you ,how?"

Thinking of her grandson's lack of marriage, the old lady felt very uncomfortable, and then heard him talk about the new funeral of the in-laws in the fifth aunt's house, and said: "You child, why do you always treat one more than another? Your second sister's family also valued filial piety last year. You didn't mention taking Zizhe and the others over, but now your fifth sister's family is anxiously taking them back to take care of them. What do you make her think? Changsheng, from now on you will not only be the head of our family, but also your sisters I can rely on my natal family, and I can no longer be so self-willed as before and always favor the sisters and brothers of Yueyuaner, this bowl of water must be leveled, otherwise today I will be unhappy tomorrow, and this relationship will be broken."

"Grandson knows, and my grandmother will take care of it for me, so I feel at ease."

"How many years can I take care of you? There still needs to be a heroine in this family—"

"Oh, grandma, I forgot to invite Ah Heng to drink at night. I'm going to leave now. Don't leave the door open for me at night. I will live in Changxinhou's mansion."

Before the old lady finished speaking, she ran away in a hurry.The old lady was both angry and funny, "Look at him, every time he brings up this matter, he always uses that kid Aheng to prevaricate me. If he doesn't like listening to it, he hides in Changxinhou's mansion. He really doesn't see people outside."

Madam Lin smiled and said, "Madam, don't worry, Young Master is young and thin-skinned, he is shy. When we get married in the future, I'm afraid that you will have a good time with your new daughter-in-law."

"Eternal life relative, the new daughter-in-law is destined to be a good family that I have chosen from thousands of people. It is too late for me to cherish her. How could I treat her coldly?"

"You said so."

The master and servant laughed at Yan Yan, and they were full of expectations for the future mistress of the mansion.

In this room, Zhu Dingbei and Shui Sheng were separated outside Changxinhou's mansion. He entered Changxinhou's mansion alone without going through the main entrance to bother people to inform him. He wasn't reading a book or practicing martial arts. Instead, he was drinking alone, and the expression on his face couldn't be called happy.Zhu Dingbei came in through the window and asked him, "What's the point of drinking alone? Why didn't you call me?"

Ning Heng was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Are you here to hide from me again?"

Zhu Dingbei raised his eyebrows, drank a glass of medicinal wine that turned out to be warming and tonic, and then put down the glass, "Uncle Duan still let you drink this wine, why?" He looked at Ning Heng critically. Ning Heng was seriously injured and missed a good opportunity for treatment, so Doctor Duan tried his best to treat him.But it doesn't make sense that almost two years have passed, and the recuperation has not been interrupted.

Ning Heng laughed when he asked him, "What are you thinking about? This year's winter is warm, and the next spring will be more humid and colder than usual. Now it's reasonable to warm up... I also sent a lot to your house. It seems that Zhu Xiaohou You haven't eaten a few meals at home recently, have you been haunted by warm and fragrant nephrite?"

After speaking, there was hidden anger, and he bit the words "Wenxiang nephrite jade" very hard.

Zhu Dingbei didn't listen to his tricks, and sneered: "Where did I go and what did I do, would Lord Changxin not know? Don't think I don't know, where were you when I was listening to the song?" .”

Every time he passed the time in the brothel, there would always be a shadowy look that followed him, telling him brightly that Ning Heng was nearby, and that if he had a little deviant behavior, he would immediately make use of it and ask him for compensation.The female number one dancer just stuck to him while dancing, and then she said she was sick and couldn't see guests... The narrow-mindedness of Lord Changxin really opened his eyes.
