An old lady's life

In May, the temperature is different in the morning and evening, but located in a mountainous place like Yanxizhuang, you can still see the fog in the morning, and you can see the sunset in the sky at night. The flowing air is full of spiritual energy. People's internal organs benefit, which makes people feel refreshed.

Princess Jingrong had been on vacation in her own village years ago, and only returned to Anhou Mansion during the Chinese New Year. Later, because her granddaughter-in-law was pregnant, she did not leave the Hou Mansion, but she never thought that with her in charge, something would happen to her granddaughter-in-law Therefore, she has been in Beijing for almost half a year, and she is really a bit depressed.

Seeing the green mountains and green waters, the Eldest Princess was in a very good mood. At this time, there were only the Eldest Princess and the Concubine Pingyang in this land by the water, and their respective maids stood respectfully five meters away.

"Mingxiu was lazy today. It's a pity to miss such a beautiful view in the morning." The Eldest Princess said with a smile, her eyes fell on the large lotus leaves floating on the water, which seemed to be not far away from the day of the flowers.

"Is this lotus blooming soon? We came at a bad time. I'm afraid it won't bloom until we leave."

Concubine Pingyang smiled gently: "If my aunt likes it, I can stay for a few more days. My niece and daughter-in-law are very welcome." Her eyes also fell on the lotus leaves that were clustered together, and she said casually: "I have always admired my aunt. It's just that my aunt has been disheartened since my uncle passed away, if it wasn't for the concubine's pregnancy, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to keep my aunt."

"Anhou Mansion is the inheritance left by my uncle. Why does my aunt keep putting him in such an embarrassing situation? With my aunt's ingenuity, it's just easy to take a step forward." Everyone said that Princess Jingrong and Zhou Concubine Husband and wife love each other deeply, Concubine Pingyang often sees her uncle and aunt together, the tenderness between the two of them, but for some reason, she always feels a little strange, and she can't explain why it is strange, but it has nothing to do with her, so she doesn't think about it to explore.

"I'm old, and I don't have that kind of thought. Besides, the young eagles always have to leave their parents' wings in order to fly high. I can't protect them forever." Eldest Princess Jingrong smiled and said indifferently.Everyone has their own ambitions, and Pingyang, the nephew and daughter-in-law, she still admires in some aspects, but it is too much, especially Pingyang, it seems that she has not thought that one day in the future, she will not be here, and what should she do with her son and grandson who have been protecting her under her wings?

Concubine Pingyang glanced at her aunt suspiciously, and was still pondering what to say when she saw Mrs. Zhongyonghou and Mrs. Chen coming together. Mrs. Zhongyonghou was relatively rich, and Mrs. Chen had been thin and thin since she was young. Old, still thin, two people walking together are completely two extremes, one fat and one thin.

"Princess Dachang, Concubine, you guys got up really early." Mrs. Zhongyonghou walked like a tiger, and smiled kindly. Mrs. Chen also said with a smile, "I got up late today, and I came to Yanxi Village Here, people are raised to be lazy."

Concubine Pingyang pursed her lips and smiled: "You are not too late, there are people who are later than you!" Her cousin has always been a lazy person, but Mrs. Lin always goes to bed early and gets up early. Looking at her like that, it really doesn't look like half a year. Many former imperial physicians diagnosed sick people.

While chatting and laughing, Grand Concubine Nan'an and Ai Cao came together, and now the six of them are all here, thinking that tomorrow is the last day, everyone looks a little bit sad.

Stay away from the hustle and bustle of Beijing, and find peace in the heart. Everyone has their own feelings, but they are born in the world, and they can't let go of too many things, and they always want to go back to that place of right and wrong.

Concubine Nan'an received a letter from her family last night, but the content of the letter really made her feel a little unhappy, but she didn't show it on her expression.

Ai Cao is in a very good mood, even if the outing with no background is over tomorrow, she will not feel regretful, anyway, if she wants to travel, she can do it anytime.

After a while, many young men and women came out from Yanxi Village. Ai Cao and the others never restrained their actions, so when they came out, many people got carried away.

Especially these women!

Ever since Lin Nuan got acquainted with Wan Miao Niang, the two have become friends, and Wan Miao Niang has ignored Hao Ding. He has not seen her for three times. He played with friends during the day, but she didn't take it to heart. He just went to sleep at night. Only then did she remember that last night Wan Miaoniang wanted to go to Hao Ding in the daytime and ask if something happened to him.

Ever since she was taught by her aunt that her medical methods cannot be used on her friends, Lin Nuan really didn't know how to find Hao Ding, scratching her head, the two of them looked at each other speechlessly.

At this time, Gu Cheng ran down from the nearby hillside, seeing him staggering a few steps, almost rolling in front of them.

"Gu Cheng..." Lin Nuan remembered him and knew that he was one of Hao Ding's older brothers, but she was only halfway through when she saw a figure appearing from the hillside where Gu Cheng had just run down. She was holding up her skirt and biting her lip to die. He stared at Gu Cheng intently, not to mention how aggrieved he looked.

Gu Cheng was a little annoyed, they had always kept a low profile, even if they were going on a blind date.He also chose a woman, intending to approach him to please him, but before there was any result, he provoked this woman who confessed that she liked men with dimples the most.

"Why are you running?" Yun Han stepped on the mountain road carefully with his skirt in his hands, and said as he walked, "Gu Cheng, I really like you, I have been chasing you for several days, you should give me an accurate answer, come back After Beijing, I told my parents, and they will definitely agree, when the time comes, you can directly ask a matchmaker to come to your door to propose marriage."

Gu Cheng ignored her, looked directly at Lin Nuan and Wan Miaoniang, and asked, "Miss Lin, Miss Wan, you both called me, but what do you want me for?"

Before Lin Nuan and Wan Miaoniang could speak, Yun Han had already hopped over and stood in front of Gu Cheng, glaring at Lin Nuan and Wan Miaoniang angrily, "This is the one I'm looking for!"

Gu Cheng was so ashamed that he blushed, Lin Nuan and Wan Miao Niang looked at each other, and they said dumbly, "Yes, yours!"

Yun Han was quite satisfied, and clapped his hands: "Now you are allowed to speak!"

Wan Miaoniang coughed, and Lin Nuan nodded, "Gu Cheng, do you know where Hao Ding is? He has disappeared for a day and a half." Her eyes fell on Wan Miaoniang.

Gu Cheng actually understood, and nodded: "Go back to the grassland first, it's a bit remote here, it's not very safe, I'll go back and catch Hao Ding." After walking two steps, he still turned around and confessed: "Miss Yun , and you go back to the grassland with them."

Wan Miaoniang blushed. Although Yun Han didn't know the ins and outs clearly, he understood a little bit, and he was greatly relieved.

"Hello, two sisters. The youngest sister's surname is Yun, and her girlfriend's name is Han. She is 17 years old this year. I don't know how to call the two sisters?"

Lin Nuan glanced at her, and finally said with a stern face: "I am older than you, you can call me sister, but Miao Niang is not yet 16 years old, younger than you. My surname is Lin, and my girlfriend's name is Nuan, and her surname is Wan." , boudoir name Miao Niang."

Yun Han laughed and said, "Then I'll call you Sister Wan." She looked at Wan Miaoniang with bright eyes, and Wan Miaoniang couldn't refuse.

Wan Miaoniang nodded and said bluntly, "Sister Yun."

Lin Nuan raised her eyebrows: "Then I'll call you Xiaohan, it's nice."

On the way back, Yun Han didn't forget to ask, "Why did you ask Gu Cheng when you were looking for Mr. Hao?" As soon as the words fell, Yun Han remembered, all she knew was that Gu Cheng was an orphan who was adopted and lived with a group of people. As the brother grew up, he had an idea, "Is it Gu Cheng's brother?"

Lin Nuan and Wan Miaoniang nodded in agreement, but they didn't say much about Gu Cheng and their brothers, and they knew only a little.However, on the way back to the grassland, Lin Nuan and Wan Miaoniang got acquainted with Yun Han, and there was a bond between them. Everyone knew each other and got along very well.

Wan Miaoniang knew that Yun Han fell in love with Gu Cheng because of his dimples, and felt dizzy. Why is Miss Yun also the daughter of a high-ranking official, so how dare she chase after a man?

Lin Nuan admired her very much. She was taught a lesson by her aunt when she pursued men. Yun Han also used the same method of stalking. How could it be more effective than hers?

Back on the grassland, there were not many people here, most of them ran out to climb the mountain, and they could still hear the noise in the surrounding forest.

Gu Cheng lifted Hao Ding out of the room and taught him a lesson all the way, "Eleventh, if you do this again, don't blame Seventh Brother for being rough?"

Hao Ding looked at Seventh Brother resentfully, sighed deeply and said, "Seventh Brother, if I die soon, shouldn't I be a drag on other girls?"

Gu Cheng glared at him angrily: "Nonsense! You are a doctor, do you know that you are terminally ill?"

Hao Ding held his breath, and said without holding back: "I don't know, do you still remember the old doctor Jiang who left the Imperial Hospital a year ago? Before he left, he sneakily slipped me a prescription, saying it was for health care. I have time to grab and eat."

Gu Cheng didn't take it seriously at first, but when he heard this, he had to take it seriously, "The old doctor Jiang is really good at the imperial hospital, but you can't just listen to the wind and the rain. We'll talk about this matter when we return to Beijing. You can't do it now." Make the girl sad. After returning to Beijing, go to the imperial doctor to have a look, if the imperial doctor announces that you are terminally ill, Brother Seven, I will personally go to the girl's house to make amends."

Hao Ding had to succumb to Seventh Brother's lust, but what Seventh Brother said was very reasonable.

Although Gu Cheng said it lightly, his heart was heavy. Eleven would not be targeted. This was all a year ago, why did he only remember it now?

However, the two quickly restrained their emotions and came to the side of the three girls who were chatting happily.

Emphasis on sex over friends! ! !Lin Nuan looked depressedly at the two people on the left and the right. When Gu Cheng and Hao Ding appeared, they abandoned her and asked her to cover up!

However, she observed the two couples with great interest. Wan Miaoniang and Hao Ding were both quite shy, while Yun Han and Gu Cheng, Yun Han was just like the Miao girls she saw in Miaodi, Hu Biao. The same, domineering, but Gu Cheng seems to be much weaker.

Lin Nuan always felt it was very strange, but she couldn't explain why it was so strange.

If Ai Cao knew, she would tell her, silly boy, Gu Cheng and Hao Ding are both good actors. Between these two couples, it seems that the woman has the upper hand, but the man is leading the woman by the nose from the beginning to the end. , all without leaving the rhythm of their conversation.

"Miss Wan, I'm sorry. I've been thinking about a question and I haven't figured it out. I'm sorry for making you worry." Hao Ding said guiltily, but it was true.

A look of worry appeared on Wan Miaoniang's face: "Then have you figured it out now?" She originally wanted to ask if what you were thinking related to the two of them, what is so serious?

Hao Ding shook his head in distress: "No." After a while, he said again, "I will tell you when I go to your house to look for you after returning to Beijing."

Wan Miaoniang immediately lowered her eyes and blushed, Hao Ding bit her lip, feeling very annoyed.

This is what happened to Lin Nuan's left.

Yun Han stared at Gu Cheng like a bully, "We've known each other for two days, do you agree to my proposal just now?"

Gu Cheng said helplessly: "Miss Yun, I have no father and no mother. Although I have a master and a group of brothers, I am really poor. Will your father Ling Cizhen take a fancy to me?"

Yun Han said without blinking his eyes: "No problem, my mother asked me to come out this time to let me choose a good son-in-law. As for the issue of family wealth, my mother said that when I got married, I married a lot of dowry. It takes a lifetime to live alone. Although relying on your wife to start a family is somewhat suspected of being soft, I don’t know if you will feel ashamed?"

"Or do you despise me?" Yun Han stared at Gu Cheng with clear eyes, and looked a little bit ready to cry, as if the next moment Gu Cheng rejected her, she would be able to cry.

Can bend and stretch, what a hero!

Gu Cheng stared at her fixedly, and after a while he said with some helplessness: "After returning to Beijing, I'll get acquainted with your father first." If he remembers correctly, Miss Yun's father, the left servant of the Ministry of Industry, Yunyong, is known as a miracle. Si Miaoxiang, at the age of less than 40 years old, became the Zuo Shilang, and he achieved it all by himself. It has to be said that Mr. Yun is a rare flower in the officialdom.

Yun Han immediately burst into laughter, Lin Nuan was a little surprised, this speed is too fast, just like this to form a marriage?

Well, they are in pairs, so Lin Nuan can only stay alone in the afternoon.Inspired by Yun Han, Lin Nuan spent the rest of her time observing these ladies from all over the capital.

Then Lin Nuan saw acquaintances in pairs again, wasn't Hao Ding's tenth brother rowing the boat?The big guy and the petite girl, both laughing silly.

Across the road, there is a boy with a cold face and a baby face. That is Hao Ding's fourth brother. He is walking down the mountain in a leisurely manner, but there is a beautiful woman behind him. She has a very expressive expression, staring at the front. man's back.

Just now when she was wandering around, she also saw Hao Ding's sixth brother and a woman going to Huahai. The name is exactly the same as Hao Ding's sixth brother.

Sitting on the chair with her chin resting on her back, Lin Nuan's eyes were dull and gloomy. Seeing this, Qingqian said worriedly, "Girl, don't worry, after you get home, the old lady and the lady will tell you about many things in Beijing again. , you will be able to catch up with them soon. The ladies in Beijing have been taught in all aspects since childhood, and all the rules and etiquette are in place, and the girls will be as good as them in the future."

Lin Nuan stared at Qingqian resentfully with her chin in her hands, and a terrible feeling came over her heart. Will she live in dire straits in the days to come?

Because everyone will return to Beijing in the afternoon of the second day, in the evening, the Yanxizhuang dinner party will be held on the grass. The teenagers and girls who were still lingering outside were attracted back.

After the Dragon Boat Festival, the weather in central Beijing became hot all of a sudden, and only in the morning and evening did it feel cool.

Since Mrs. Zhang was confinement, Hongye has handed over the affairs of the mansion to Mrs. Wang. As for Mrs. Wang, she is busy now, and after the management rules of the mansion are changed, she can't get any money at all, so it doesn't matter if she doesn't want to .

It's mid-afternoon, Hongye is walking in the garden, she can't help but think of wormwood, knowing that she has gone on vacation with Nan'an Concubine and others, and she also led a group of unmarried men and women, a typical drunkard who doesn't care about drinking.

"Second master, be careful, don't fall third master." There was a sound of rustling footsteps and panicked voices, and then I heard, "How did I fall brother? Don't underestimate me!"

This is Jia Zhu's voice. He has to go to the east courtyard to see his younger brother every day, and he turns three in August. He always thinks that he is an adult, and his younger brother is so young, how can he not be able to hug him?

"Second master, third master will cry if he can't see his wife." The nurse and maid circled around Jia Zhu, dragging the baby in Jia Zhu's hand with both hands.

Jia Zhu sighed like a little adult: "Why is my brother so clingy to my mother? I won't cry even if I can't see my mother!"

"Second master, the third master is still young, less than two months old." The nanny said carefully, half squatting, "How about the second master handing the third master to me?"

Jia Zhu looked at Jia Lian who was blowing bubbles, stretched out her little finger and tapped her younger brother's nose, leaned her little face up, and kissed Jia Lian on the cheek with a slap.

"Brother, you have to grow up quickly, and we will go to school and play together in the future!"

Jia Lian got a little impatient at being harassed by her brother, her nose moved and she began to cry loudly.

Jia Zhu had a bitter face: "Brother, you really know how to cry! Auntie can't run away, why are you crying?"

Jia Lian didn't care so much, the crying was loud, the nanny hurriedly picked up Jia Lian, and the group hurried to the east courtyard.

Hearing the sound of crying, Mrs. Zhang hurried out of the east courtyard, just happened to bump into the nine-curved corridor outside the east courtyard, quickly took the little magic star, and shook it: "Lian'er is not crying, mother is here!"

Jia Hu was on his way to the east courtyard after class. He ran into Jia Zhu on the way and brought his younger brother back with him. When they came back, they saw their mother (uncle) coaxing their third brother.

"Auntie, Lian'er is not good, she always cries!" Jia Zhu said with a frown.

Jia Hu was also extremely worried, "Mother, Lian'er still cries like this, what should I do? Will he not go out in the future and just stay by Mother's side?"

Jia Lian, who was in the swaddling baby, was sobbing, her voice gradually getting quieter, and she leaned towards her mother's chest, smacking her lips in satisfaction.

Zhang said with a smile: "Lian'er is still young, when he can talk and walk, he won't be like this."

Hong Ye walked over from afar. She actually observed Jia Lian for a long time. She thought that there was some special reason why he was so Oedipus, but other than Oedipus, he was very normal in other aspects, not like a time traveler with memory or For reborn people, Hongye didn't bother to investigate, whether it was a human or a ghost, there would always be clues in the future.

After a while, two brothers, Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng came back one after another. Both of them were disgraced. One planted trees on Zhuangzi to make it look like this, and the other made it look like this in a bookshop decoration.

However, both of them have a sense of accomplishment. Jia She's mountain has already been planted with saplings, which are suitable for the soil on the mountain and the fruit crops that will follow. Jia She's consultation with the officials of the Ministry of Agriculture was not in vain.

Hongye originally wanted to find a time to go to Jia Shena's farm and pour some spiritual water on the fruit trees in the mountains, but thinking about her identity, it's okay to go out of the mansion, but it's not good to go out of Beijing.

"Where's Jane?"

Jia She rubbed his cheeks, feeling that they were covered with dust, and pursed his mouth when he heard his mother's question: "That kid accidentally rolled down the hillside on the mountain, and then rolled into a cesspit of a family. I washed it, but it still smells bad."

Hong Ye nodded, "I'm afraid that kid will have trouble in his heart." There is a shadow in her heart, which affects normal eating, and Jia Zhen exercises a lot every day, I am afraid that this handsome rosy young man will lose weight soon.

Jia Zhen was very unlucky today. Thinking of the cesspit, when he returned to Ning Mansion, he was bathed in hot water, wiped with soap locusts, and washed three times in a row. Only then did the nausea in his heart go away.He is obviously very tired today and very hungry, but he has no appetite at all.

Mrs. Xu was worried about her son. Hearing this, she was full of concern from a loving mother, and she kept persuading her son to eat, but he really couldn't eat it!

Jia Daihua scolded, "Smelly boy, do people feel sick because they eat whole grains? That tells him not to poop or pee every day. I think that when we were marching and fighting, the places that were more disgusting than this would be dead. I didn’t make a sound for a long time, and when I came back, I just washed in the river and it was over.”

The old servant next to him had no choice but to comfort him: "Old Master, the son of the world grew up in Taiping, how can he compare with you?"

Turning his gaze back to Rong Mansion, the family had lunch in harmony. Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Wang stayed to talk with Hong Ye. Jia She and Jia Zheng had their own things to do. After greeting their mother, they left Rongxi Hall. Now they What he was doing was gradually getting on the right track, and he was able to solve the problem by himself, and Hongye would not just point fingers.

When Wang talked about her natal family, she said that her sister-in-law had been confirmed to be pregnant. As a married woman, she should congratulate her on her natal family's happy event.

Naturally, Mrs. Zhang would not do anything to make things difficult. The in-laws in the mansion had to take most of the gifts from the public. As for the extra things for the married daughters, that was her own private matter.

Hongye thought it was Wang Xifeng who was about to be born, but she heard from Wang that her sister-in-law was finally pregnant with her first child after so many years of hard work.

Firstborn?In other words, it's not Wang Xifeng, but Wang Ren who 'forgot benevolence and righteousness'!
