happy event

Chapter 168
Murong Huaide frowned and shook his head, "No need, I'm afraid Mother Concubine will say that you pick the rest before sending her there."

Dong Rong smiled and persuaded, "It's fine if the concubine doesn't accept it, but if we don't give it away, it's a lack of courtesy."

There is no child in the world who really hates his mother, Murong Huaide said it coldly, but in his heart he still hoped that the family would get along well, so he asked Yiba to hug a few good horses with one ten thousandth hope The material and a pair of mutton fat jade bracelets were sent.

Needless to say, Princess Liu not only smashed the jade bracelet and threw away the cloth, but also excused that Yi Ba didn't understand the rules and wanted to slap her face twenty times.If Yiba hadn't run so fast, his little face would have turned into a steamed bun by now.

The little girl pursed her mouth in grievance, and kept saying that she would never go to the main courtyard again.Murong Huaide's face turned dark when he heard this, and he said coldly, "I will send someone back to Qing County to deliver a letter in the future, you prepare some supplies for the Wang family of the Cao family, as for the main courtyard, don't worry about it."

Dong Rong's temperament is extremely defensive, and she was already a little annoyed when she heard that Princess Liu was going to beat Yiba.Hearing this, he naturally put out the idea of ​​"family harmony and everything is going well", and instead called Zizhu and Wenniang to help with the staff list.

In two months, Dong Ping should go to Fucheng to take the Juren examination.Dong Rong originally wanted to go back and take care of it herself, but she always had a vague feeling these days, as if she was going to live in the capital for a long time.Taking precautions, it might be necessary to send a gift to the Yang family first.One is to entrust Mr. Yang to take care of his younger brother, and the other is to imply that Mrs. Yang has not forgotten the verbal marriage contract between the two families.

The Yang family is a scholarly family, so the gifts can't be all gold and silver vulgar objects, maybe two elegant and expensive ornaments, a few horses of good materials that are popular in Kyoto and two sets of exquisite head and face jewelry will be more or less the same.

The rest of the Cao family and the Wang family didn't pay so much attention. They just picked practical or expensive food and clothing.Especially Mrs. Cao, who gave her a pair of five taels of gold bracelets, and the old lady could wake up with a smile in her dreams when she kept them.

Dong Rong made a list while figuring it out, and finally went to the warehouse to pick it up, and finally all the gifts were ready, only the delicate and expensive ornaments remained.

Fortunately, on the second day, congratulatory gifts from shopkeepers in various state capitals came in again like water. She finally found a Tianhuangshi ornament, carved with a picture of the sunset in the autumn mountains.

Manager Zhang was ordered to escort the car back to Qingxian County. The orchard was about to harvest in autumn, so it still needed someone familiar with everything to take care of it.

On a drizzle and misty morning, Guanshi Zhang returned from the north of Beijing with two carriages.Concubine Liu has seen all kinds of good things being sent to Xuemeixuan these days, and she regrets that she should not have rejected her son's offer of repairs that day, otherwise her warehouse must be full at this time.It's a pity that her intestines are remorseful, but she can't say it out of her mouth, so she can only secretly figure out how to drag her son and prevent him from going back to another courtyard with his daughter-in-law.

God is kind this time, and it's the first time he's on her side.Just when Murong Huaide ordered the newly promoted Boss A to prepare to return to another hospital, news came from the yard where the old prince recuperated. The old prince, who had been in a coma for many days and only relied on ginseng soup and other tonics to survive, woke up unexpectedly.

Murong Huaide immediately rushed over with Dong Rong, Princess Liu was sitting by the bed, there was not even a maid in the room, it looked very empty.

Dong Rong secretly glanced at the somewhat strange old prince with a ruddy complexion, her heart skipped a beat, the dying man suddenly became so radiant, needless to say, it must have returned to life.

Murong Huaide obviously thought of this too, he helped his wife to go forward to salute together, and finally said in a low voice, "Father, this is the first wife of the baby, she is pregnant with twins, and it is almost six months now. "

The last time the father and son met was the day when Murong Huaide had just returned to the palace. Afterwards, the old prince vomited a big mouthful of blood and then woke up and fell asleep, and then fell into a coma.Therefore, this is the second meeting between the father and son.

"Come on, Qiu'er, let the father take a closer look." The old prince smiled and took his son's hand, and finally said comfortingly, "You really look like the father when he was young. I just heard your mother and concubine say that you are good at both civil and military affairs. But he doesn't like political affairs, so my father is relieved."

After saying this, the old prince smiled and looked at his daughter-in-law again, nodded and said, "He is a good boy, Qiu'er is much smarter than his father. That's good, that's good, our Zhongshan Palace has not broken its blood. "

Concubine Liu listened at the side, her complexion was extremely bad, and she said angrily, "Qiu'er doesn't like political affairs, why are you so happy? Don't tell me you've been spending your whole life and bury Qiu'er?"

But the old prince didn't seem to hear her words, he stretched out his hand and pressed on a raised wood grain on the side of the bed, and then took out a bloodstone seal and two deed papers from a small box that popped up, and finally put them in his son's hand Li instructed, "Father thought the bloodline would be cut off, but in a moment of grief and anger, the family business was wiped out. Fortunately, there are still these two shops left, which happen to be gifted to the two grandchildren as meeting gifts."

Murong Huaide saw that his father, whose appearance was almost the same as his own, was now so thin that he almost lost his appearance, and the complaints accumulated in his heart for many years began to ferment somehow, overflowing with sourness.He persuaded in a low voice, "Father, why don't you wait for the two children to be born and hand them over to them in person."

The old prince smiled and shook his head, "No, I'm afraid I won't be able to wait for them to be born."

Murong Huaide still wanted to speak, but the old prince turned to look at Concubine Liu, wondering if he remembered the years of getting along with him, his face was sometimes joyful and sometimes angry, but in the end there was only helplessness left.

"Yuehua, you...you can do it yourself."

Concubine Liu suddenly heard her husband call her boudoir's name, she didn't react for a long time, she opened her mouth before she could speak.Murong Huaide already leaned forward and shouted loudly, "Father, Father!"

Dong Rong hurriedly walked to the door with her stomach in her arms and called for someone, "Hurry up and ask the imperial doctor to come."

The two imperial physicians were already waiting under the eaves. Hearing the sound, they hurried in to take the old prince's pulse. At the end, they looked at each other and knelt together and said, "My lord... has returned home on a crane!"

The room was silent for a long while without anyone speaking. Dong Rong looked at her husband who was standing by the bed like a clay sculpture, and stepped forward to gently shake his hand.Murong Huaide turned around with a blank face, his eyes gradually regained some brilliance, and his hands squeezed his wife's little hand back tightly, and said in a low voice, "I'm fine, you go back first, I... still have to be busy!"

"Okay, don't forget that you still have me and my sons." Dong Rong responded lightly and turned around to leave the door. Zizhu and Yiba immediately stepped forward to help her walk towards Xuemeixuan.

Just as the three master and servant stepped out of the courtyard, there were bursts of crying behind them, and one of the female voices was especially sharp, full of unbelievable despair.

Dong Rong couldn't help sighing, just like a group of little girls fighting endlessly for a flower, and finally one girl violently drove away all the opponents, but when she turned around, she found that the flower had withered.Princess Liu at this time is that girl who wasted her youth...

"Stop!" Liu Xiaozhen stood behind a moon gate holding her maid's hand, seeing Dong Rong's master and servant pass by, so she called out.

Dong Rong glanced at her indifferently, but she didn't show any intention of stopping at her feet, completely treating this master and servant like flowers and plants by the roadside.Liu Xiaozhen was still acting like a lady, but now she was so angry that she lifted her skirt and chased after her, and said angrily, "Are you deaf? I call you, why don't you stop?"

Dong Rong was always thinking about her husband, so she was in an extremely bad mood.She didn't want to cause trouble, but if someone took the initiative to block the way and scold her, she didn't intend to let go of such a "nice" punching bag.

"Whether I'm deaf or not, you don't need to care about Miss Liu. On the contrary, the Liu family is a scholarly family. It is reasonable to say that even if a daughter does not know shame, she should at least know the minimum etiquette. In terms of seniority, I am your cousin; Order of the second grade, you are a commoner. Shouldn't Ms. Liu bow down when she sees me? The tutor of the Liu family is really... tsk tsk!"

Liu Xiaozhen's face was flushed red by Dong Rong's scolding with a gun and a stick, and she clenched her fists in hatred, "You are just a lowly peasant girl, why should you let me see you? You really think you are flying on a branch to become a phoenix, but in fact you It's just a crow!"

"Why? Just because I am the imperial concubine appointed by the emperor, oh, no, I will be the princess soon. And you, you are just a 'great lady' who tried everything possible to become a concubine but was rejected by others. How pitiful! Extremely. Don't talk about greetings in the future, if you don't kneel and kowtow to me, I will only look at your aunt's face."

"You...do you dare to say it again, I want...I want..." Liu Xiaozhen was stabbed in the fatal point, and the veins on both sides of her forehead burst out of anger.

Dong Rong scolded viciously, feeling much more at ease, so she smiled and waved her hands, and replied, "I'm not your maid, why should I obey your orders. You should go to the main courtyard to flatter the princess." , remember to cry gracefully, don't make my husband hate you even more!"

After finishing speaking, she continued on her way slowly, leaving behind Liu Xiaozhen whose face was disfigured with anger.On the contrary, Hongyu secretly felt that she would relieve her hatred, and hoped that the new princess would turn her head and come back and scold her for a few days and nights, and it would be best to piss off her vicious master directly.

Yiba peeked back as he walked, and finally said with a smile in a low voice, "Madam is so powerful, she scolded Miss Liu so much that she couldn't even raise her head. It's so satisfying."

Zizhu glared at her, and said angrily, "You just know how to join in the fun and don't protect Madam, what if she goes crazy and hurts Madam?"

"She dares!" Yi Ba stared and said angrily, "That day she was the one who pushed the old concubine to slap my mouth. If she did it just now, I would just have an excuse to hit her all over the place."

Dong Rong heard the funny words of the two girls, and the depression in her heart completely dissipated.

The three masters and servants had just returned to Xuemeixuan, and before they had finished drinking a cup of tea, they heard a commotion in the direction of the main courtyard.

Dong Rong sat in front of the window and looked around for a long time, and began to miss her child's father again, but now she took care of herself to save him worry, so she had to ask Wen Niang to bring back the linen clothes for everyone to change, and she changed herself A moon white dress.
