The lucky little prince's doting wife

Chapter 103 Mrs. Hu’s cat, Miss Mimi
"The old lady in the Wei Mansion," Mrs. Miao said, and then told Xie Jiuhuan about the old lady Hu in the Wei Mansion, "I saw her once from a distance before."

Xie Jiuhuan: "Er Niang, have you seen this old lady? What does she look like?"

Miao: "I couldn't see her face clearly. The old lady was going to some temple to offer incense. The road had to be cleared beforehand, so I stood at a distance and took a look."

Xie Jiuhuan: "How about clearing the streets?"

Miao: "Are you envious? I have a first-class imperial edict."

Xie Jiuhuan said sarcastically: "I can't envy this."

Not only is she not envious, but her second mother is also not envious. If her second mother wants to be the royal wife, she has to rely on her father Xie to earn it. Can her biological father, who is still lying in bed now, count on her?

Miao recalled: "The old lady was sitting in a sedan chair. It was hot, so the curtain of the sedan chair was raised."

Xie Jiuhuan: "This seems to be against the rules, right?"

What about keeping the female precepts?

Mrs. Miao glanced at Xie Jiuhuan and said, "You run outside all day long. What did your father and I say about you? Besides, the old lady is so old. A little girl has to hide, and an old lady has to hide." What?"

"Er Niang is right," Xie Jiuhuan said, "Then what happens next?"

Miao: "The old lady is fair and fat, with a big face. She wears a lot of pearls, gold, silver and jade hairpins on her head. It can be seen that she likes to dress up."

According to Miao's description, Xie Jiuhuan imagined what Mrs. Hu looked like and said, "Then she doesn't look good either."

Miao: "Who can still look good when they are old? Do you really think that old lady is a monster?"

Xie Jiuhuan smiled and said to Miao: "Second mother, you will definitely look better when you get older. Trust me."

If Miao hadn't made her hands dirty while picking vegetables, she would have slapped Xie Jiuhuan right now, "That's nonsense, I don't want to be an immortal monster."

Seeing that the flattery failed to persuade her, Xie Jiuhuan changed the subject and said, "Oh, that's good. That old lady lived to be eighty, she is a longevity person."

People in this era are no better than modern people. Modern people can easily live over eighty years old. For poor people in this era, people who live to be 50 years old are considered to be old.

Mrs. Miao lowered her voice and said, "Your brother, the one who kept his mouth shut, is not here, so I am telling you."

What kind of secret is this going on?Xie Jiuhuan became more energetic and said, "What do you want to say?"

Miao: "Don't look at that old lady who is now praised for her kindness. She invites nuns and Taoists to her home every day to accompany her and talk about Buddhism and Taoism. This old lady was also a figure before."

Xie Jiuhuan: "What big things has this old lady done?"

Miao: "I don't know about this. I only heard that she was the Queen Mother's patron back then."

Xie Jiuhuan: "Ah?"

Mrs. Miao: "That old lady is not a good person."

Xie Jiuhuan thought, what has this old lady done?Her second mother-in-law said so, so this is how the people in the capital commented on the old lady.

"When you are old, you worship Buddha and Taoist kings," said Miao, "because you feel uneasy and are looking for peace of mind."

Xie Jiuhuan clicked his tongue. It seems that Mrs. Hu is also a person with a story.

There was thunder and a rumble in the sky.

"I heard that when Wei Mansion holds a birthday banquet in the evening, fireworks will be set off," Miao said, "but look at the rain, the fireworks will definitely not be set off."

"God forbids me to watch fireworks." In a small Buddhist hall in the Wei Mansion, Mrs. Hu sat on a back chair, surrounded by smoke, and said to the woman in charge: "Then I won’t let him go. No one can fight against the sky.” The housekeeper said: “Maybe after dark, the rain will stop.”

Mrs. Hu: "I feel bad."

It's hard for the housekeeper to talk to her, and she can't say, "Old lady, you are wrong. The rain will definitely stop by night."If what she said was revealed and the rain kept coming at night, would she have to die to make amends?
"Go down, I'm afraid of making trouble, don't let anyone disturb me," Mrs. Hu said in a hurry.

The housekeeper had no choice but to retreat.

Five nuns are sitting cross-legged on the futon in front of the Buddha and chanting sutras. Anyone who is familiar with Buddhist sutras will know at a glance that these five nuns are chanting the Lotus Sutra.

Mrs. Hu sat and listened to the Sutra for a while. She suddenly stopped turning her hand and rushed out the door and asked, "Where is my breast?"

Mimi is Mrs. Hu's favorite cat, um, the one who has a fight with Dahei, the boss of Nancheng District, a stray cat in the capital.

Immediately, a little maid replied outside the door of the Buddhist hall: "Go back to the old lady, Miss Mimi is sleeping in the nest."

Mrs. Hu: "Go and have a look. Let it drink water when it wakes up. Last time it was sick, the doctor said it didn't drink enough water."

"Yes," the little maid replied and ran away.

"It was only after I raised a cat that I realized that this cat is not as easy as raising a child," the old lady said to the nuns who were chanting: "I don't eat, I only eat fish, and it has to be freshly cooked fish. It can’t be salty or bland, so I had to arrange a cook just for it, and he would stay in the kitchen every day to make its cat food.”

It was not the first day that the nuns came to the Wei Mansion to recite sutras. Knowing that Mrs. Hu did not need them to talk to her at this time, the nuns continued to recite sutras in a low voice.

Mrs. Hu: "This little girl will get sick when she catches the cold. In summer, if I don't give her enough ice cubes, she will get sick too. When she wakes up at night and can't look at me, she has to scream. After screaming, her throat will be sore the next day. Something goes wrong, oh, I have to worry about it 12 times."

The nuns can go in and out of the Wei Mansion, so they are not the kind of monks who suffered in Qingxiu. But listening to Old Mrs. Hu's nagging, they still envy this cat named Mimi. This cat's life is worse than Do most people in this world want to be strong?
Listen to what the maid said just now, Miss Mimi, a cat is actually a miss!
"Is Mimi awake?" Mrs. Hu asked outside the door again.

When I was busy, another little maid ran to see the cat.

"Grandma," Wei Yu, the old man of Xiaoge, arrived outside the door of the Buddhist hall at this time.

Mrs. Hu: "Come in."

Mr. Xiao Ge walked into the Buddhist hall, looked at the nuns who were chanting sutras, bowed to Mrs. Hu, and said, "Grandma, there was some noise in the front yard today. Did it disturb your purity?"

Mrs. Hu: "Well, those people didn't come to see me, they just used my excuse to talk to you father and son."

Xiao Ge smiled and said, "I just hope grandma won't be upset."

Mrs. Hu: "It's okay. I sit in front of the Buddha and my mind will naturally become pure."

Mr. Xiaoge: "Grandma, the Holy Father will come over in the evening. You still have to go to the longevity hall."

Mrs. Hu nodded and said, "The imperial chariot is here. Even if I can't walk or crawl, I have to go and ask for your blessing."

Xiaoge Lao bowed to Old Mrs. Hu, then took a few steps closer to Old Mrs. Hu, and lowered his voice and said: "The queen's phoenix body is against the rules, so she can't get through."

Mrs. Hu raised her eyelids.

Xiaoge Lao: "Someone from the palace told me about this, saying that the empress herself feels uncomfortable."

"I know," Mrs. Hu waved to her eldest grandson and said, "Another day, I will go into the palace to pay my respects to the empress."

"Yes, then my grandson is busy at the front," said Mr. Xiaoge.

Seeing the eldest grandson walking out of the Buddhist hall, Mrs. Hu tightened her grip on the Bodhisattva in her hand. Emperor Xuan Jing is becoming more and more bold now. If he continues, will this sword really fall?
