一
At night, dinner was just served in the palace. The second lady has had a bad appetite recently and has become increasingly thin and haggard in the past few days.
"Madam, Madam! I'm back, the poor girl is back..." Xiang Xing hurried in from outside.
"What?" The second lady was in a daze and didn't hear clearly.
"Madam, the poor girl and the young master are back..." Xiang Xing held her hand on the door frame and kept panting.

"Ouch..." Upon hearing this, the second lady hurriedly put down the embroidery in her hands and hurriedly got down from the couch. "Where is the person? Where is the person?"

The second lady was busy stroking her hair and hurriedly walked outside. At this time, the poor boy had already entered the courtyard.
"Madam!" the pauper called, and saw the second lady stepping in front of her in a few steps, and she knelt down in front of the second lady.

"You child, get up quickly! What is your identity now? How can you kneel to me here?" The second lady wiped her tears and pulled the poor boy up. "You have been worried about me these days. It will be good if you come back!"

"Are you okay with this?" The pauper was also busy wiping the tears of the second lady.

"I'm good, I'm good..." The second lady said to the servant again, "Where is the prince? Go and ask the prince to come over."

"Go back to Madam, I've already sent someone to invite you. The poor girl has had a hard time on the road. It's so late at night that we should go to the room to talk. It's very windy here..." Xiang Xing said

"Yes, yes, blame me. I was so happy when I saw the poor boy that I forgot about it, son! Follow me to the room to talk." After that, the second lady took the poor boy's hand and walked towards the room. walk inside

"Where's Chenghe?" The two of them sat down in the room, and then the second lady realized that Chenghe was missing.
"Brother, don't worry about Rongwen. He went back to his yard first," said the pauper.

"Look, look, what does it mean to marry a wife and forget about your mother? These days, you don't care about my mother's worries. You only think about your wife." The second lady laughed.
"I heard from my brother that Rongwen is pregnant and will give birth soon..." Poverty said

"No, it's been just a few days ago. The day before yesterday, I invited the imperial physician to come over and said that there were two of them. Rongwen's belly was as big as a mountain. In the past few days, his body has become heavier and heavier, and it is difficult to even walk... …" When the second lady mentioned her grandson, she was naturally very happy and started talking more.
"I'll go see my sister-in-law tomorrow. I haven't seen her for a long time and I miss her very much..."

While the two were talking, Xiang Xing brought some tea to Pong'er. When Wu'er saw it, he quickly took it and handed it to Pong'er with his own hands.
"Hey! Who is this girl?" the second lady asked without seeing Wu'er.

"This is Wu'er," Pao'er said. Wu'er hurriedly gave the second lady a gift.
"Good girl." The second lady looked Wu'er up and down and praised her, "That's right! Why haven't you seen Miss Laibao?"

"Laibao and I got separated when something happened in the palace," Pao'er replied. He was afraid that the second lady would be worried and busy, so he added, "She is smart, so she will be fine."

"Are you back?" The prince hurried in from outside and finally felt relieved when he saw that the poor boy was unharmed.
The pauper hurriedly stood up to greet him, but was directly stopped by the prince.

"It's okay, it's okay," the prince said, "Sit down quickly..."

"Thank you dad for the two boxes of money." The poor boy saw that the prince seemed to have aged a lot this year.
"It would be great to come back. They don't want much. Who are you and me? How can we say thank you?" the prince said.

"You are worried about your daughter's unfilial piety," said the pauper

This sentence brought tears to the prince's eyes: "This child can speak after being gone for more than a year."

"You're running on me with irony again," the poor boy complained.
"You kid, you are so narrow-minded..." The prince smiled and said, "There is no better place right now, so you should just live in this courtyard. It will be easier to take care of..."

"No! Don't allow this disaster star to live in the mansion." A group of people outside the door came in in a mighty manner. All the female relatives in the mansion accompanied the old lady. The old lady walked a little hastily and was out of breath when she spoke. Uneven
"Mother, why are you here if you don't have a good rest in your room this late at night?" The prince hurriedly went to greet the old lady and helped the old lady to sit on the seat. "Hongshun! You are confused. Who is she?" "The old lady pointed at the poor boy with a trembling hand, "Why do you insist on keeping her in the house? Because my mother is old, please let your mother live a few more years!"

"Grandma..." Paoer hurriedly gave the old lady a gift, trying to ease her mood.
"Don't call me, don't call me..." The old lady hurriedly stopped her.
"Mother, what's wrong with you?" the prince asked

"Son! You can't keep her in the house! She is a disaster. She only married in the northwest for a year, and her whole country has perished..." The old lady kept tapping the ground with her crutch.
"It's not her fault..." The prince said, "Her home is here, and there is no room for her at home. Where should she go?"

"Anyway, we can't keep her here. It's up to the third lady to tell me, otherwise you will have to kill your mother..." The old lady had already begun to cry.

The prince turned his head and glanced at the third lady
"Dad can't just love her and ignore us. I am also his daughter. If we suffer something because of her relationship, will dad feel better?" Baozhen also cried.
The eldest lady didn't say anything, she just went to the old lady to comfort her.

When the third lady saw the prince staring at her, she muttered, "I definitely can't hide such a big thing from the old lady. Can't I ignore the lives of more than a hundred people in the house?"

"Hongshun! Get her out quickly. Do you really want to kill your mother?" the old lady said anxiously.
"No!" the prince said firmly
"What did you say? Are you going to make your mother angry to death?" After saying this, the old lady covered her chest and kept breathing.

"Mother!" The prince saw that the old lady was so busy and went to check.
"It's fine if you make me mad, why do you need to show concern like this?" the old lady said angrily.
"Mother, I..." The prince felt really embarrassed when he saw the old lady like this.

"I don't live here." The poor boy couldn't bear to see the prince in trouble.

"What did you say?" the prince asked hurriedly after hearing what the pauper said.
"Dad is a well-known filial son. How can your daughter embarrass you?" Pao'er said

"This is your home, where can you go?" the prince asked

"Do you still remember the place where I lived when I was a child?" Paoer asked.

The prince nodded

"Is it okay if I want to stay there?" Pao'er pulled the prince and asked.
"It's really shabby there, how can you live there?"

"I was able to live there before, why can't I live there now? I really want to live there. Don't worry about me. I think it's nice there and I feel more comfortable living there..."

"No! That would be too unfair to you," the prince said

"Just let me live there. It's good to be so close to you. What's wrong with me?" Pao'er smiled and said, "It's okay. I'll go over and clean up the place. It's good. Just agree! She is old, how can she be so angry and sad? If she gets sick, I will blame myself. Doesn’t daddy want his daughter to be an unfilial person? "

The prince began to think after hearing the words. After a long time, he turned to look at the old lady and nodded in agreement...
