The High Gate Mistress of Rebirth

Chapter 151 Li Xian Joins the Cabinet

Jing Shu, in her capacity as the head of the house, ordered someone to rearrange all the furnishings in the Chenxi Pavilion according to Mei Niang's status, and put away all the things that were out of order in the original pavilion.

This Mei Niang went back to the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion with the flesh and blood in her belly in such a silent manner.

This time, she seemed to have learned a lesson, she was no longer making trouble like before, nor was she obsessed with Li Xian, she just hid in Chenxi Pavilion as a concubine in a well-behaved manner.

It seems that it has really been reformed.

If Meiniang doesn't come out to provoke Xu Wanning, Xu Wanning's temperament will naturally not bother with her. She will go outside after the child is born. Xiyuan is so big, and Xu Wanning doesn't care about raising Zhang for a while. Q.

Li Xian can be said to be proud of the spring breeze these days, his wife and concubines are harmonious in the backyard, he is going to be a father again, and the front court is also very good.

There were three candidates nominated by the cabinet, one was a brother of Empress Cao, one was the eldest brother of Princess Jin, and the third was Li Xian, the eldest grandson of Duke Zhen's mansion.

It can be said that these three people have their own backs, and they have their own strengths as officials.

But the Holy One finally chose Li Xian as the candidate for the cabinet.

When Li Xian received the imperial decree, he was so excited that he almost shed tears. It is a lifelong dream of civil servants to be in the cabinet to be a government assistant.

His son is so promising, Guo's face is naturally bright, this Guo's back was straight when he went to An Xitang to greet the old lady recently, and he raised his head when he saw the little mistress, looking like no one in his eyes.

On this day, after finishing her housework, Jing Shu brought a few things that Xu Wanning usually liked to Xiyuan to congratulate her.

Compared with her husband and mother-in-law, Xu Wanning was much more indifferent towards Li Xian's promotion. When Jing Shu mentioned this to her, she said: "I don't want to follow his husband and wife, but I just hope his career will be smoother. In the future, it will be enough for brothers and sisters to follow suit."

Although they have been a husband and wife for more than ten years, after being teased by their mother-in-law and provoked by other women for so many years, the one who can maintain Xu Wanning and Li Xian also has a child.

Jing Shu comforted: "Fortunately, that Mei Niang is still doing her duty now. After she gives birth to a child and leaves the house, for the child's sake, you should live a good life with your elder brother anyway."

Xu Wanning took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "I'm doing this for the children, otherwise, I would have been unable to live with him."

While the two were talking, it was said that the old woman came in and said, "Ma'am, the cousin girl is here to teach my brothers and sisters."

Xu Wanning put down the teacup, and said to her mother-in-law: "I'm talking to the second lady, you can take her to Baoxia to play with your brothers and sisters first."

The mother-in-law retreated under orders, and Jingshu asked Xu Wanning, "Which cousin girl?"

Xu Wanning replied: "It's a distant niece of my mother-in-law, named Cuiyan. This girl's biological mother died of illness a few years ago, and her stepmother is tricky. This girl is getting angry everywhere at home, so she came to join us."

Xu Wanning sighed and said: "This cousin girl has a good life and a good temper, hey! Even if her life is not very good, she is still a poor person!"

Jing Shu talked with Xu Wanning for a while, and when she left the house, she happened to bump into the cousin Cuiyan who was playing with her brother and sister in the yard.

Xu Wanning introduced the two of them, and Na Cuiyan greeted Jingshu generously.

Guo Cuiyan was only sixteen or seventeen years old, she was extremely beautiful, and her mannerisms were a bit of forest style.

When Sister Zhuang saw Jing Shu, she threw herself into her arms, pointed to Cui Yan and said, "Second Aunt, Cousin is teaching me to read poetry with my brother."

Xu Wanning smiled and said: "The cousin loves to read. Since she came to the mansion, she has come to teach her brothers and sisters to read and write every day. It saves me the hard work."

Cuiyan heard Xu Wanning's words, and said with a smile: "Where is my cousin, I am here to be taken care of by my cousin."

Xu Wanning was straightforward, and said quickly: "Cousin, don't say that, we are all a family, so what are you talking about?"

When Jingshu returned to Qingfengyuan, it was already dark, and Ziyun greeted the little girls to prepare dinner when she saw Jingshu's return.

Seeing the chicken soup, Jing Shu asked, "Isn't E-Mu made this by himself?"

Amu smiled and whispered to her: "Drink more of this, it will be the most helpful for conception."

Ever since E'Mu came, this matter has become the concern of the old man, her daughter is happy in this house, and now she has been married for a year, if she gave birth to another child, wouldn't it be consummation.

After the meal was ready, Li Ling also came back. Jing Shu got up and personally helped him take off his official uniform. Li Ling sat down at the dining table with his wife, saw the big bowl of chicken soup, and said maliciously: "Em made you chicken soup again." gone."

Jing Shu glanced at him, filled a bowl full, and pushed it to Li Ling: "Drink some too."

Since Ah Mu came here, he has to cook chicken soup every now and then, and now he smells the chicken soup and feels sick to his stomach.

"Eum made this for you with my own hands. How can I drink it along with you?" Li Ling hurriedly pushed Jingshu to the soup bowl in front of him, and then pushed it to his wife: "Madam can enjoy it by herself."

There are outsiders who always carry it in Li Ling, so now every meal, Jing Shu will send people away, leaving only her and Li Ling to eat in a relaxed manner.

Jing Shu took a sip of the chicken soup sullenly, raised her eyes and asked Li Ling: "You said we have been married for a year, why am I not pregnant yet?"

Li Ling glanced at his wife and asked, "Are you in a hurry?"

Jingshu said in a low voice: "There's no need to worry about it. I just went to my sister-in-law's place today and heard her ask about me, so I wanted to tell you about it."

Li Ling put down the jade chopsticks, looked at his wife with a half smile, and replied, "I'll tell you the reason after I go to bed."

Jing Shu shot him a look: "Can you be more serious."

Li Ling replied: "You want a child and you want me to be serious, isn't that a contradiction?"

Jing Shu's cheeks were slightly flushed by his shameless words. After dinner, Jing Shu was put to bed by Li Ling early.

Don't look at Li Ling's outsiders who always look serious in front of him, but in private with Jing Shu, he is shameless and shameless. He hugged his wife to bed and continued the topic of dinner to Jing Shu: "Do you know how to do it?" Pregnant?"

Seeing that his wife was blushing and silent, he then said shamelessly, "A child is formed by the blood of the parents, and it takes the sincerity of the parents to get it."

Jing Shu shot him a look, and asked, "How can you be sincere?"

Li Ling regained his energy immediately, and continued to talk: "You are always complaining about being tired and suffering, which is not sincere. From now on, if you are more compliant, you will naturally be able to conceive."

Jing Shu pushed him away, rolled her eyes at Li Ling, and replied, "Don't fool me. You haven't been able to conceive after being married for so long. It's probably because you didn't know what to do."

As she spoke, she turned her back to Li Ling and lay down on her own.

Before Jing Shu could close her eyes, Li Ling pressed up against her. Gritting her teeth while looking at the little wife under him, he said, "Little thing, do you know what the consequences will be if a man doesn't know what to do in bed."
