Royal rice bug, worm worm!

From the moment he decided to assist Li Xi to take over the position, Wei Yu never expected the two to get married in a fair and honest manner.

As long as he can be by Xiao Jinchongchong's side, even if he is a male favorite or a courtier, he is willing.

"Cong Chong doesn't need to change, just do whatever you want, come and go during the New Year, come and go to deal with it, let me do it."

Li Xi was stunned, "You said that before and after marriage are very different, do you mean 'years ago'?"

"Otherwise?" Wei Yu laughed.

Li Xi didn't say a word.

He thought Wei Yu meant that after getting married, he wouldn't love him as much as he does now.

Wei Yu hugged him, "It's windy, it's cold up there, go down and eat!"

It was indeed a bit cold, Li Xi arched into his arms, using him to shield herself from the wind.

Wei Yu held him in his sleeves like this, and walked down the stone steps.

Li Xi was still emphasizing: "If you are here to plead for Xiao Zirui, forget it, he should focus on my elder sister, not me."

——The second brother-in-law stopped calling.

"Well, don't beg for mercy, just beat him up." Wei Yu shunned his curly hair and pointed to the village at the foot of Lie Mountain.

"There is a blacksmith in the south of the village. He is lazy and lazy. He has not married a wife in his 20s. He managed to find a young lady and often beat and scolded him. Once he was beaten so hard that the young lady bravely ran back to her mother's house. To file a complaint, a dozen or so cousins ​​from my mother’s family beat the blacksmith until he lay on the bed for half a year, and never dared to beat his wife again.”

"There is another family in the east of the village. They put their daughter-in-law at their beck and call. After serving the father-in-law and mother-in-law, even the unmarried sister-in-law is asked to serve tea and water. She has no time to relax, so she just gave up the five-month-pregnant child. That daughter-in-law is a violent one, she took out firewood from the stove and set fire to his house."

"And the one in the west of the village..."

Wei Shaoqing was more patient than the gentleman in the teahouse when he told the story. After walking the 880 eight-level green stone steps, the anger in Xiaofu Wang's heart disappeared.

"I'm a scholar, so I don't fight." Li Xi smiled wickedly.

Naturally, there is a better way to make the person surnamed Xiao unforgettable forever.

"Little Pepper, borrow someone from grandma."

"Fig, make a quiet room."

"Brother Shuyun, let's go and meet Xiao Zirui."

After half an hour, everyone was there.

Xiao Zirui came first, and he kept serving tea and water and saying good things.

Li Xi ignored her, and instead took the hand of the midwife that Hu Jiao had invited, and said, "Please trouble Auntie, I'm sure my Little Pepper has explained everything you said on the way."

The midwife said respectfully: "My lord, don't worry, I will tell Xiao Langjun all the concubines I need to talk about."

Xiao Zirui looked puzzled, "Xiaobao, what do you want this aunt to tell me?"

"What do you ask so many, just listen with your ears up." Li Xi blew the tea foam pretending to be deep, "Start!"

The midwife bent her knees and said loudly: "My lord heard that Xiao Langjun didn't know the dangers of giving birth to a woman, so I asked my concubine to explain it to him. Before entering the palace, my concubine learned the craft from her master for 20 years. More than half of the young gentlemen and young ladies in the room were picked up by our masters and apprentices."

The people present immediately stood in awe.

Xiao Zirui hurriedly got up and saluted solemnly, "Xiao is relieved to have my aunt taking care of my wife."

The midwife returned the salute for a while, and hummed: "Mr. Xiao was relieved a little too early, the concubine hasn't finished talking—do you know what's going on with the other half?"

"Think, think about it, is it entrusted to another midwife?"

The midwife shook her head, "It didn't go well, either one or two dead, or barely gave birth, but didn't feed."

Xiao Zirui's legs gave way, and he hurriedly supported the table before he stood up.

The midwife was not surprised by his reaction, these big men pretended to be poems, books, officials, and the world in their hearts, but they couldn't care less about the lives of women in the back house.

"If the fetus is not right, it cannot be born."

"The umbilical cord is around the neck, so it can't be born."

"The child is too big to be born."

"The head is too hard to give birth."

"Halfway through the birth, the mother loses strength and faints, and three out of ten fetuses suffocate to death."

"Don't you know the pain during childbirth?"

"I heard that Mr. Lang is on business in Dali Temple, but he can burn someone with a red-hot iron? The pain of giving birth is a hundred times more painful than that."

"Once Nine Deaths gave birth to a baby, they had to be pushed out of the purple river cart. If they couldn't get it out by themselves, they had to stretch their hands in and peel it off. If one was not serious, they would collapse and die."

"Even if the mother and child are safe, I don't know how many confinement diseases."

"Women from wealthy families are mostly delicate and delicate. When they marry at the age of fourteen or fifteen, they will carry a baby before their bones are fully grown. The danger is far more dangerous than that of peasant women who are used to work..."

The midwife casually told a few unfortunate examples, which immediately made Xiao Zirui turn pale with fright.

Li Xi also felt uncomfortable, "If you don't want to hear it, forget it."

"No, I want to hear it." Xiao Zirui shook his head, "Auntie, please tell me more, especially the... before and after... that needs attention."

After all, he is thin-skinned, and some words are really embarrassing to say, but he still expresses the meaning clearly, and even took out the case book and a pencil that he carried with him, and quickly recorded them.

Although Daye's folk customs are open, topics such as "women give birth" are still taboos among taboos.

It is not an exaggeration to say that Xiao Zirui did not understand it before.

This is how a family like him has been educated since he was a child, read the books of sages and sages, practice the way of a gentleman, don't listen to injustice, speak inappropriately, and look inappropriately. Even if you accidentally hear a sentence or two in the market, you must go away now.

Therefore, these "stories" told by the midwife were shocking to him.

Seeing his eager and serious appearance, the anger in Li Xi's heart completely subsided, and he staggered out of the palace gate.

Wei Yu followed behind and asked, "How does Chongchong know this?"

"My eldest sister hurt a child."

Since then, no more children can be born.

Wei Yu patted him on the shoulder and said in a warm voice, "Min Zhi told me that the reason why County Lord Funing was accompanied this time is because Mrs. Xiao Liu said that the fetus in the county owner's womb is too big and needs more exercise, otherwise it will be difficult to give birth."

"She knows shit!"

When Li Xi heard this, the little flame that had been suppressed just now sprang up again, "The doctor girl said that my elder sister is probably pregnant with twins, and the reason why she kept quiet is because she kept a low profile!"

Wei Yu knocked on his forehead, "For such a big matter, at least Hui Min should be informed. You see, even you know it, and he, the real father, doesn't know it."

"I overheard..."

Li Xi blushed, and said confidently: "Who told him to tell that wicked mother-in-law about everything, and the wicked mother-in-law loves to show off, and the quarrel will be known to everyone within two days. If it is not the time, he will be laughed at It's not my sister!"

Wei Yu rubbed his head and said no more.

He helped to explain everything that needed to be explained, and if he continued, he would make his own Chongchong unhappy.Wei Shaoqing will not make the same mistake twice.

So it went all night.

It rained lightly the next day, so it was not suitable to go out.

Li Xini stayed at the Queen Mother's residence for a day, Li Yunluo and Li Mujin were also there, together with Hu Jiao and Fig, the family talked and laughed, it was warm and lively.

When the queen mother first found out that Hu Jiao was the daughter of King Ding, she held her hand and cried for most of the night, talking about her childhood while crying.

Kindness comes with good rewards. Although Hu Jiao's background was unknown back then, the Queen Mother still accepted her and often asked Dou Qingtai to take care of her, so that the child was raised healthy and healthy.

If she is colder, refuses to raise her, or doesn't raise her properly, causing Hu Jiao to die and become disabled, her intestines will regret it at this time.

Hu Jiao was very obedient, just being led by her, sitting on the footrest... fell asleep.

As long as the Queen Mother cried, she slept secretly until Dou Qingtai found out.

The Queen Mother stopped crying and instead laughed for half the night.

Truly personal.

Just like her father, she has a big heart!

Now the life experience can't be announced, and the queen mother can't show it publicly, she only rewarded Hu Jiao and Fig with many things in private.

From then on, Li Xi will give them what they have - figs are purely blissful.

The Xiao family jumped up and down anxiously.

——Attention, not sorry or regret, but worry.

Xiao Zirui wanted to see Li Yunluo several times but was blocked back. He wanted to beg Li Xi, but he couldn't find anyone.

Immediately afterwards, the list of the Autumn Ceremony came out, and there were a total of sixteen important ministers at the top of the list, regardless of their official positions, they were the saints who were currently planning to reuse them.

Not a single person surnamed Xiao.

There could have been two of the letters I received earlier.

For this reason, the Xiao family gave benefits to the two servants of the Ministry of Rites.

The sudden arrival made a fool of himself, and if he said that it had nothing to do with Li Yunluo's matter, no fool would believe it.

The Xiao family used all their connections to try to convince Li Yunluo to be soft.

- That's right!Until now, those in power in the Xiao family still feel that Li Yunluo is making a fuss out of a molehill, playing the majesty of the county magistrate.

Li Xi's side has become a "hardest hit area".

Xiao Sanlang limped, "Fifty big boards, my father beat them with his own hands, brother, I sacrificed a lot-it's okay, I don't regret it, Xiao Liu deserves it! I was thinking, can you let me see Funing Sister-in-law, you might as well go back to work, otherwise it will be more than fifty boards..."

He Lanpu faltered: "Cui Lanxin and the little lady of the Xiao family are handkerchiefs—ah, I know, I know, I shouldn't speak for her, the second sister is my real sister, brother Xi just pretended that I didn't say anything..."

Even the two eldest princesses of the royal family came, no need to guess, it was all due to the affection of the husband's family.

Li Xi didn't like to hear what they said.

What is "every woman in the world is like this", what is "living in a muddle", what is "slowly suffering, there will always be a day when you get over it"...

Why can't there be women who live differently?

Why can't you stand up and fight back?

The funniest thing is, since you know that life is not easy, why do you want to persuade others to go there?

The more Li Xi heard it, the more angry he became, "Are you confused? Is my elder sister the root cause of this matter? Is my elder sister the bully? Why don't you go to find that person, but keep telling my elder sister to bow her head and admit her mistake? "

Everyone's faces stiffened.

Li Xi snorted coldly: "It's okay to be confused, I have the medicine for being confused."

"Chong Chong Classroom" has started!

Anyone who came to beg for mercy, counted as one, threw them all into the small black room, and asked the midwife to teach them a good lesson.

It is impossible to disappear the solid disease accumulated for hundreds of years at once, but this kind of intuitive deterrence is very useful.

Young gentlemen like Xiao Sanlang and He Lanpu came out with a white face.

Just when Li Mujin came to look for Li Xi, He Lanpu rushed over and carefully supported her, "Third sister, be careful, don't fall."

Li Muqin raised her eyebrows, "Tell me, did you do something to apologize to me?"

"No, I'm just afraid that you'll be pregnant by then—oh!"

Li Mujin punched him, "Stinky boy, I'm not married yet!"

He Lanpu covered his black eyes and cried.

Sure enough, the little lady and the little lady are also different...

The women felt it more deeply, and all of them had red eye circles when they came out.

The two eldest princesses took Li Xi's hand and said with tears in their eyes, "Xiao Bao, it was my aunt who wanted to get out of it earlier. Tell your second sister, what to do, we will support the clan."

Li Xi bowed respectfully.

This incident spread throughout the Hunting Palace overnight.

The next day, a county concubine personally begged the queen mother to send her three-month pregnant daughter-in-law back so that she could have a safe pregnancy.

Empress Dowager.

Xiao Zirui quickly handed over the brochure, wanting to take Li Yunluo back.Li Yunluo refused.

It's not about temper, it's because she's a month old, and it's not good for the fetus to go back and forth continuously. It's better to rest for half a month, and then walk back slowly.

Whether this matter is big or small, what the women saw was Li Xi's protection of sister, and what the officials saw was his means.

Before that, in their eyes, Li Xi was still the little dandy who was "born with good fortune" but "ignorant". After today, it is completely different.

After making a fuss, he won Jun's heart.

When he said it, he blocked the clan's mouth.

After talking about it, not only severely slapped the Xiao family in the face, but also gave Li Yunluo full of sympathy points.

Even Ge Lao, who is strategizing, may not be able to kill a thousand enemies without harming a single soldier himself.

Li Hong saw the right time and spread the news that "the desire is still in the line of King Ding".

When the officials saw Li Xi again, their attitudes were different.

Li Xi himself still looked like he didn't care. To him, saving positions was not as important as hitting two more boars.

This kind of performance, on the contrary, attracted the praise of that wave of high-minded old ministers - such a flattery, which is somewhat of a monarch's bearing!
