The wife of the power minister's family

Duke Liang's Mansion in Xijing.

Regardless of the chaos outside, the Duke of Liang's Mansion, guarded by heavy guards, will always give people a sense of security like an iron fortress.

However, despite this, the old, young, women and children who stayed in the house still spent a panicked night.

Mrs. Cen spent the whole night kneeling in her small Buddhist hall, praying for the safety of the Zhao family men who were quelling the rebellion outside. Until the next morning, her two daughters-in-law came running over excitedly, saying that the capital city When the fighting here came to an end, her heart relaxed a little, and the maid and two daughters-in-law beside her carefully helped her up.

Mrs. Pei looked at the blue-gray color under her mother-in-law's eyes, frowned slightly, and said, "Mom, there is a rare break from the war now. You haven't slept all night, why don't you go back to your room and take a rest?"

Mrs. Yang also responded: "Yes, if you look like this, your husband and the others will feel sorry for you when you come back. You may even blame your daughters-in-law for not taking good care of you."

Mrs. Cen looked at them lovingly and shook her head gently, "You are still too young. I have been with the Duke for more than thirty years. I have experienced more than this war. Although I am not like the Duke. Like me, I have to go to the battlefield, but as the mistress of the Zhao family, I have to take care of all aspects of the family during the day so that the Duke and the others have no worries. At night, I have to go to the Buddhist temple to pray for the Duke. The chaos of King Wu was at its worst. During the crisis, I didn't sleep for three whole days and three nights, and that's how I got here.

However, after King Wu's Rebellion, Da Chu has been stable for almost ten years. Xuan'er and the others have also grown up and can share the worries of the Duke of Guo. The Duke of Guo has been staying at home longer and longer in the past few years. I am actually I have almost forgotten this sense of urgency of the imminent war. "

When Mr. Pei and Mr. Yang heard this, they couldn't help but feel a little upset.

After they got married, this was indeed the first time they experienced such a big war.

Mrs. Pei was originally born into a family of generals and could withstand better. Mrs. Yang's eyes immediately turned slightly red and she said: "Mother, what do you mean the war is imminent? I thought... I thought that after the fighting last night calmed down, nothing would happen. Already..."

"Have you forgotten? The soldiers who just came to report said that Duke Xing and several men from the Jiang family have successfully escaped from Xijing."

Mrs. Pei sighed softly and said: "The chaos last night was just an appetizer before the war. It will be even more difficult in the future."

Yang bit her lip and said, "Husband...are you going to the battlefield?"

Mrs. Cen looked at Mrs. Yang, patted her hand gently, and said: "Daiwen, the Zhao family's son never asks himself whether he wants to go to the battlefield, he only asks if he is needed on the battlefield. If he is needed, he will be in a mountain of swords and a sea of ​​fire. Must go too.

You should have this awareness before marrying into the Zhao family. "

Yang's face suddenly turned slightly pale.

Mrs. Cen knew that her daughter-in-law had a softer temperament, so she sighed secretly and changed the subject.

Just as several women were talking in low voices, Qingyu suddenly walked in and said: "Madam, Mr. Xiao and Mrs. Xu are here to pick up Mr. Xiao."

Mrs. Cen was stunned for a moment, but she couldn't help but smile and said: "We're finally here. If they don't come, no matter how good they are with their smile, they're probably going to cause trouble."

Mrs. Pei also said: "Changxiao's temperament is already more precocious than the other children. Last night, when he was hurried over by Commander Xiang, he looked like he wanted to cry or not. Brother You was still heartless. Very, noisily asking Changxiao to play, I said Changxiao is not in the mood to play with you now.

Sure enough, after dinner, Brother You went to see Changxiao. No matter how he played tricks, Changxiao just sat there in a daze, looking back at the direction of the door from time to time. That look in his eyes made my heart ache. "

Mrs. Cen entered the small Buddhist hall after dinner last night. She didn't know what happened next. She couldn't help but feel distressed when she heard this: "My darling, the ones who suffer the most in the war are the children. We are a big family gathered together. It's okay to be together, no matter what, we can be lively and take care of each other, but Changxiao can only stay at home alone, or else he will be sent to various homes to take care of him, which is not easy.

Go, call Changxiao, and I will send him there myself. "However, when Mrs. Cen took Xiao Huaian's little hand to the front hall and saw Xiao Yi and Xu Jing inside, she raised her eyebrows imperceptibly, and she keenly sensed something was wrong.

Not far away, I saw a young couple sitting on chairs on the right side of the front hall, one on the left and one on the right. From a distance, I could see Xu Jing holding a tea cup and slowly sipping tea. The one sitting on her left Xiao Yi kept turning his head to look at her, with an expression on his face that seemed...a touch of helplessness.

When two people sit together, even if they don't interact with each other verbally or physically, they will naturally emit a magnetic field. People with a keen mind can feel it to some extent whether their relationship is good or bad, close or alien. , not to mention a fox like Mrs. Cen who has been practicing for thousands of years.

She was looking thoughtfully at Xu Jing and Xiao Yi not far away, when the little one she was holding couldn't help but break free from her hand, excitedly shouting "Daddy and Mommy!" and ran wildly. passed.

Hearing Xiao Dodian's voice, the two people who seemed to be immersed in their own world suddenly came back to their senses. Xu Jing immediately put down the tea cup in her hand and caught Xiao Dot who rushed over. Finally, there was a smile on her face, " Are you a good person here with Grandma Cen? Have you caused trouble to others? "

The little boy immediately refused and said, "You are a good boy with a long smile! You won't cause trouble to others!"

At this time, Mrs. Cen also came over and said with a chuckle: "Changxiao is indeed very good, but he is worried about you. Although he didn't say it, we can all see that he has been waiting for you to take him back. "

Xu Jing's heart moved slightly, she gently stroked the little one's head and said, "Sorry for bothering Aunt Cen, it's because we failed to fulfill our duties as parents."

"What did you say?"

Mrs. Cen looked at her and Xiao Yi beside her meaningfully, and said with a smile: "For Changxiao, as long as you two can be well, it is his greatest happiness, and he is still waiting for you. Let’s give him some younger brothers and sisters.”

Xiao Huaian's eyes suddenly lit up.

Xu Jing couldn't help but sneered secretly.

Huh, younger siblings? It’s faster to dream!

However, on the surface, she just smiled faintly and avoided the topic and said: "Anyway, I still bother Aunt Cen. When I have time in the future, I will come and thank Aunt Cen properly.

We went back first. "

After that, he said goodbye to Mrs. Cen with a long smile, declined her offer to send them to the gate, turned around and walked out.

From the beginning to the end, she didn't even look at Xiao Yi beside her, letting him follow her, and he would do whatever she did.

Seeing Xu Jing holding Changxiao's hand and walking out first, Xiao Yi turned around and looked at them with a helpless sigh, and followed them in stride.

As soon as the three of them left, Mrs. Cen grabbed her youngest son who was about to run away. She frowned and said, "Ming'er, what happened to Yanci and A Jing?"

"I don't know either!"

Zhao Jingming worked all night and was attacked by the air-conditioning of those two people all morning. It was when he was exhausted mentally and physically. He was about to go back to the room to have a good rest. Hearing this, he couldn't help but jump up and said: "They Ajing was like this when she came out of the room in the morning. It was as if Yanci had kept ten or eight concubines without her knowledge. I wondered if she had finally seen clearly Yanci's dull and boring temperament. , I regret marrying him again!"
