The general's wife is sick

Ask the servant in the mansion to send Tang Junyi the ointment used inside and outside, and also give Xu Fan a bottle of perfume as compensation.

Once Tang Junyi, a money-loving iron rooster, knew that Xu Fan's thousands of taels of silver notes would be given away as he wished, his fate might not be made up for by a bottle of perfume.

Take out a small porcelain bottle filled with perfume, put it in your nose and sniff it.

To be honest, in terms of quality, this kind of perfume blended with spices is very inferior, but now that the production process is poor and there is a lack of production tools, it is not easy to achieve such fineness.

This kind of fragrance can make a straight man lose control, Xu Fan's concentration is really bad!

With a smirk, Ji Liu felt in a good mood whenever he thought of the oolong affair between Xu Fan and Tang Junyi.

The opposite of Ji Liu's mood is Yan Bao.

In the Palace of Mercy Ning, the Empress Dowager was holding a small bowl of fish food to feed the fish, two chubby koi with extremely beautiful colors were swimming around in the large water tank, Yan Bao stood anxiously behind her In the distance, today was the day when he returned home, but early in the morning, the Empress Dowager summoned Yan Bao into the palace.

"I shouldn't have bothered you today. Going home is a big deal after all. But Ai's family heard that Zhengli didn't take care of you first on the wedding night. Your marriage is in the hands of Ai's family. I'm afraid that you will still be hurt today." I am wronged, so I call you here."

Yan Bao saluted, "Thank you, Queen Mother, for your love."

After the queen mother sprinkled the fish food, Nanny Jin wiped her hands, and seeing Yan Bao standing three steps behind her, the queen mother smiled and said, "What are you doing so far away from Ai's house, you're married, it's a birthright. "

"Thank you Empress Dowager for thinking about it, but my father always taught Bao'er to marry and obey her husband. The husband is already very good to Bao'er. The empress dowager is relieved."

Yan Bao blushed slightly, and lowered his head to listen quietly.

The queen mother looked at his hairpin and nodded slightly, "It's good if you can think about it. Zhengli's body is weak. When he was young, Ai's family thought that he would not live to be an adult. Guangyang is a good mother. It took a lot of thought. Now that you and that child Hong Yan are with him and take care of him together, I think he won't have to worry about his health in the future."

Yan Bao's heart broke out. Everyone in the capital knew that Xiong Zhengli was in poor health, but the Queen Mother's words were too straightforward. She actually said in front of him that she was worried that Xiong Zhengli would not live to be an adult?

The Empress Dowager took Yan Bao to sit on the rug, and Nanny Jin served tea for the two of them, it was steaming hot and fragrant.

Seeing the Empress Dowager serving tea, Yan Bao also took a sip, put down the teacup, and said, "Mother has really worried a lot about your husband's health. Before getting married, Bao'er also heard that your husband is not in good health, but now it's gone. Great, it's all the result of my mother's hard work day and night."

"Although a woman and Shuang'er regard her husband as the sky after marriage, the Ai family still values ​​you more. You are a smart child, which is how you please the Ai family. The Ai family hopes to see you husband and wife in harmony."

The Empress Dowager twisted a piece of tea cake and put it in Yan Bao's hands. Her makeup was exquisite, her temperament was luxurious, and her nails were painted with bright red Koudan, showing the emperor's majesty to the fullest.

Yan Bao held the tea cake with both hands, "Bao'er also likes the queen mother. This tea cake is fresh and sweet, and it smells very fragrant."

"If you like it, bring some back home. Madam Jin also likes handmade tea cakes."

After taking a bite of the tea cake, Yan Bao pretended to be surprised and turned around, "Mama's craftsmanship is really amazing. The tea cake is sweet but not greasy. Originally, the tea contained bitterness, but after making the tea cake, I only tasted the tea. The tea fragrance in the cake can't be tasted even a trace of bitterness."

Sister Jin showed a smile on her face, "Madam Bao is really sweet, so eat more if you like it, and I can only sell the dim sum I make."

Yan Bao ate two pieces of tea cakes one after another, which made the Queen Mother happy, and Nanny Jin was also happy.

It wasn't until noon that the Empress Dowager left Yan Bao to eat in the Compassionate Ning Palace before letting him go back.

When Yan Bao returned to the General's Mansion, Xiong Zhengli had already brought Hong Yan back home.

Ever since Xiong Jinghai rectified the crappy servants in the mansion, the general's mansion has lost the chief steward. Now that Princess Guangyang is free, all the big and small matters in the mansion are handled by the nanny who is in charge of all the places in the mansion, and the steward reports directly to her.

There was no carriage outside the door, and Yan Bao's expression was ugly. Steward Lin, who was in charge of the carriage expenses of the back house, stepped forward and said, "Ma'am, when the second young master brought Mrs. Hong back home, I gave you a small word of advice. If you want to go back to the house after you come back, Let the little one arrange carriages and horses to take you back, and he will go back with Mrs. Hong today."

Yan Bao smiled, "Understood, please trouble Steward Lin to take me to Earl Ziyang's Mansion."

After getting married, you can't even talk straight when you go back to your own home.

The home he grew up in has now become what others call a tall mansion in his own mouth, Yan Bao raised his eyes to look at the tall door plaque of the General's Mansion, and was speechless for a long time.

Yan Bao went back to the Earl's Mansion of Ziyang in a carriage alone, Yan Shinuo knew that he was summoned to the palace by the Queen Mother this morning, for Yan Bao's marriage, Yan Shinnuo really worried a lot, "Bao'er, what did the Queen Mother say to you today? "

I told Yan Shinuo all the conversations I had with the Empress Dowager today, and Yan Shinuo sighed, "Everyone in the capital knows that Xiong Zhengli didn't take care of you first on the wedding night. What the Empress Dowager is doing now is indeed a sign of love for you in the eyes of outsiders. .”

"I don't care, it's enough for Ali to be nice to me." Yan Bao blushed when he thought of his fierce appearance.

"Father feels at ease when you live well. Now that the Empress Dowager summons you, even if you can't go back home with Xiong Zhengli, you can't say anything to outsiders."

Yan Shinuo had a headache for the Queen Mother's intervention, but as a minister, he had no choice but to obey the royal grace.

Besides, no one knows whether the queen mother's summoning is good or bad. If Xiong Zhengli originally wanted to accompany Bao'er back to the house today... This is also unknown, because of the queen mother's intervention, Xiong Zhengli's attitude has become an excuse. Unsolved mystery.

"Hurry up and go see her in your mother's room. She is always worried that you will be wronged when you go out for the past two days, and the food is not good all day long."

After Yan Bao resigned, he went into Wang Yiyun's room. Wang Yiyun asked Madam Zhu to make him "Silver Bud Soft Cake" and waited for him. When he saw Yan Bao, he pulled him into his arms, "My darling, You suffer."

Wang Yiyun is a concubine, even if Wang Xinru was lying on the bed like a dead person because of suicide, Yan Shinuo did not divorce her or divorce her wife, and she is not qualified to stand with Yan Shinuo to accept Ji Liu's ceremony for such a big event as the return of the two children of.

Yan Bao didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and let Wang Yiyun hug him, "Mother, I didn't suffer, the princess and my husband are very kind to me, don't worry."

"Don't fool your mother, she has heard that he didn't enter your yard at all on the wedding night." Wang Yiyun stroked Yan Bao's hair, his eyes were full of reluctance and kindness, "My child is suffering, poor Mother is incompetent, unable to protect you well."

Yan Bao comforted her, "Mother, the emperor bestowed a marriage on your husband first. Originally, Hong Yan and his marriage were decided earlier than me. It is normal for your husband to make such a choice. Don't think too much about it."

Seeing that there was no pain in Yan Bao's expression, Wang Yiyun felt relieved, "Mother is very pleased that you can think so. How is he treating you well?"

"It's all right, mother, don't worry." Yan Bao knew what Wang Yiyun meant, and his face turned red instantly.

"That's good, that's good, I'll prepare the children's clothes for you early, and I'll have nothing to do all day, so prepare more!" Wang Yiyun patted Yan Bao's hand, with a smile on his face.

"It's still early, mother, what are you talking about now!" After all, Yan Bao had just married, and Yan Bao's face was still very immature, "Besides, it is said that twins should not be pregnant, I'm afraid..."

Wang Yiyun said, "Don't think about it too much. Mother has inquired about it. She heard that preparing the child's clothes and supplies early will let the child in the sky know that the family is expecting him to come, so he can enter your stomach early."

"Okay, okay, mother, let's stop talking about this."

"Now that you are married, of course you will have children. Why be ashamed! By the way, is Nanny Lin useful?"

"Nurse Lin is fine, don't worry, mother."

"Mother is just afraid that Mother Lin will not follow you all the time, and you will not get used to it."

Yan Bao was heartbroken, Wang Yiyun was most worried about him, "Mother, Nanny Lin is very nice, very thoughtful and experienced."

"That's good, mother is always worried about you..."

The mother and son were talking when someone knocked on the door to report that Xiong Zhengli had arrived.

Yan Bao turned his head immediately, his eyes glowed, and he straightened his back involuntarily.

Seeing his appearance, Wang Yiyun felt a little bit reluctant. The child was moved first, but she didn't know what Xiong Zhengli's attitude was. She was so humble that she couldn't see him as the mistress. She was really anxious, but there was nothing she could do.

"Mom, I'll go see him first."

"Hey, you go."

Because it was past noon, Xiong Zhengli didn't stay in the Earl's Mansion of Ziyang, and they all went back to the General's Mansion as soon as it got dark.

When returning home, Xiong Zhengli and Yan Bao shared a carriage, and Yan Bao put his hands on his knees obediently, "Husband, I am very glad that you can come today."

Xiong Zhengli raised his eyes, he was good-looking, just a simple eye contact, Yan Bao softened his legs, "You and Hong Yan's return home is a big deal, I will come naturally."

His uplifted heart fell to the bottom in an instant. He didn't want to hear Hong Yan's name when the two of them were alone, so he smiled stiffly at the corner of his mouth, and pulled the topic away from Hong Yan, "I corresponded with Liu Er two days ago, Northwest It has already snowed, and I don’t know whether the soldiers of the Northwest Army will have a warm winter this year.”

Sure enough, after Yan Bao opened his mouth, Xiong Zhengli looked at him squarely and said, "My sister-in-law is very skilled in medicine. Last winter my brother didn't suffer any crimes. This year my sister-in-law will not suffer any crimes when she joins the army. Blessed are the soldiers in the Northwest."

Xiong Zhengli was willing to talk to him a few more words, and Yan Bao continued, "The weather in the Northwest changes a lot, and the winter is long, let's pack up some winter supplies and send them there. I haven't seen Liu'er's three children yet. I entered the door, and the meeting ceremony also followed."

"Yeah." Xiong Zhengli nodded, "You can do these things. You have traveled around the capital with Earl Yan, and you have seen a lot. In the future, you will learn to manage everything in the mansion by your mother's side."

"Okay!" Just being arranged by Xiong Zhengli, Yan Bao's mood floated high like clouds in the sky.

The carriage rolled on the stone slab and made a regular sound, and there was silence again in the carriage, Yan Bao endured and asked, "Husband, if the Queen Mother didn't call me today, would you follow me home first?"

The hands were clenched tightly, and the fingers were stirred, and the fingertips turned white due to too much force.

Xiong Zhengli pulled him into his arms, Yan Bao's heart was beating wildly, and the heartbeat was louder than before, only to hear Xiong Zhengli say, "What do you want to hear from me?"

Yan Bao's mouth was dry, and it took him a long time to find his own voice, "As long as it is what you say, I want to hear it."

Xiong Zhengli smiled evilly, "I heard that my father-in-law likes to miss romantic places, but I didn't expect you to learn his glib tongue and amorous abuse."

Yan Bao's face turned pale in an instant, "What's your husband's intention?"

"The love words come at your fingertips. You are really good at it. It's a pity that I didn't plan to go back with you at first. Even if the Queen Mother doesn't summon you, you have to go back by yourself."

His face turned from white to blue, Yan Bao stared at him with wide eyes in disbelief, it took a long time to digest Xiong Jinghai's words, after a while, he found his voice, "Yes... Is there something wrong with me? , to offend you, but if you didn't like me, why did you marry me then?"
