The ultimate rebirth of the abandoned woman

Chapter 227 Trying Children ([-])

The twins' full moon banquet was very grand, more than half of the dignitaries in the entire capital came, one-third of the imperial city was empty, and two-thirds of the aristocratic families in the capital also arrived.

There were a lot of distinguished guests in the princess mansion, all of them were dressed in purple or red, and a few white men also wore the hats of aristocratic families, they were even more neat than those who attended the grand court meeting in the front and rear palaces.

With so many distinguished guests here, Xiao Nan, as the eldest daughter of the eldest princess, and Yuan Shi, the eldest daughter-in-law of the eldest princess, both of them are obliged to take on the important task of hospitality.

"...The eldest princess is so lucky..."

Several noble ladies surrounded Xiao Nan and said congratulations, one of the older ones kept lingering on Xiao Nan, causing Xiao Nan to raise his eyes and look back.Strictly speaking, this noble lady is not an outsider, she is the well-known Mrs. Fang Lu in this dynasty, and she can also be regarded as Xiao Nan's in-law.

Seeing that it was Lu Shi, Xiao Nan nodded and smiled politely.

Lu Shi also nodded approvingly, his eyes fell on Xiao Nan's slightly protruding belly again, and he thought to himself: The eldest princess is not the only one who is blessed, look at the princess of Xiangcheng who is also a very lucky person.

The eldest daughter is not yet one year old, and she is pregnant again. The typical three-year hug shows how good Xiao Nan's relationship with her husband is.

Of course, judging from Xiao Nan's performance in the past period of time, it is not unreasonable for her to be loved and respected by Cui Langjun.

Look at what this daughter-in-law does?

Help the dandy husband to find a "good teacher and helpful friend"; urge and encourage the husband to take the imperial examination and go to the official career; Putting on the airs of the princess, even the queen in the palace praised her as a 'sensible' woman...

All these piles, one by one, definitely deserve the title of 'Good Wife'.

It is definitely a hundred times stronger than the one at home.

Lu Shi thought of the daughter-in-law at home who suppressed his son so much that he couldn't lift his head, and suddenly lost his mood. He forced a smile and exchanged greetings with a few noble ladies, then walked away and left.

Looking at Lu Shi's aging back, Xiao Nan couldn't help but sigh: having a princess as a daughter-in-law is something that ordinary mother-in-law really can't enjoy.Even though Lu Shi was not submissive in front of His Majesty Li Er, being under the same roof with Gao Yang was enough to make Lu Shi worry.

"What are you looking at? So engrossed?"

After Yuan Shi finished greeting several acquainted ladies, she turned her face and saw her sister-in-law staring at a corner in a daze, feeling curious, so she came over to ask a question.

"It's nothing, I just feel a little bit emotional when I see Mrs. Fang."

Fang Da's death was definitely a heavy blow to the Fang family. Just looking at the speed of Mrs. Fang's aging during this period, one can guess that the life of the Fang family is definitely more chaotic than the rumors in the market.

"There is no other way." Who asked her to marry a princess to be her daughter-in-law? The princess is the princess. It would be better if Gao Yang could be as dignified and respectful as his own mother-in-law, but that is an arrogant and willful master. Well, being a daughter-in-law with someone as powerful as Lu Shi, it's no wonder that the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law can calm down.

Yuan took Xiao Nan's arm to the corner, and said in a low voice: "You don't know if you don't go out these days, it's been rumored that Gao Yang took a fancy to a monk, and now he doesn't even go home. "

There are many examples in the circle of noble ladies in Beijing, and Gao Yang is not the only one, but Xiao Nan knows that Gao Yang's love affair turned out to be a big one, and it was passed down for thousands of years in the end.

However, now that the queen is in charge, it is estimated that Gao Yang is much more disciplined than the Gao Yang recorded in the history of the later generations.

After thinking about it, Xiao Nan said indifferently: "It's nothing, with Her Royal Highness on the left and right, Princess Gao Yang will not be too outrageous."

And with the example of Princess Nanping as an example, the empress must strengthen the discipline of the imperial daughters and granddaughters. There is also Mrs. Fang sitting in Gaoyang's place.

Xiao Nan believes that a woman who dares to challenge His Majesty Li Er is by no means a weak woman who allows her daughter-in-law to mess around. Lu Shi must have a way to control Gao Yang.

"Well, that's right, that's what Auntie said."

Yuan Shi is an intelligent person, and she would never comment on the royal family in front of her sister-in-law.

Soon, she changed the subject, "I heard from Mr. Cui that Mr. Cui Dalang will go to the East and West cities to buy food for you every day recently?"

Xiao Nan smiled faintly, nodded and said: "Well, Mr. Lang is looking forward to this child."

To be honest, sometimes Xiao Nan also felt that this child came at a very good time. Back then, in order to divert Cui Da's attention from Bai Shi, she was still thinking of a safer way.

As a result, the child came, and immediately pulled back Cui Da's weed-grown heart.

Although she didn't care about this man, for the children, it was better to have their father's attention than to be ignored by their father.

The child in his stomach is still young, Xiao Nan can't be sure, but Xiao Nan has seen every bit of the changes in Xiao Lingxi these days.

Seeing that Lingxi is getting closer to Cui Da, Xiao Nan is lying when she says that she is not jealous, but she has to admit the fact that no matter how scumbag or bad that man is, to Lingxi, he is also her father.In the eyes of children, the role of father is irreplaceable.

No matter how much she loves and cherishes her daughter as a mother, she can't fill the vacancy of "father" in her daughter's heart.

Speaking of children, Yuan Shi also came up with a topic. She lowered her head and counted the days, and asked with a smile: "By the way, Lingxi has been around for more than nine months. In two months, she will be one year old."

Her child is two months younger than Lingxi, so she knows Lingxi's age better.

Xiao Nan nodded, and when he mentioned his daughter, she was also full of topics, "Lingxi has already learned to stand on her own, and now she is also learning to speak, and sometimes she can spit out a few clear words. Hehe, looking at Xiao The guy grows up day by day, and he is more satisfied than doing anything."

Yuan Shi is also a mother, she can understand Xiao Nan's words very well, she nodded repeatedly, "That's right... by the way, speaking of it, I remember one more thing, I heard from my cousin that Liu Langjun moved Go live next door to her house?"

"Well, Liu Langjun will wait for a vacancy in the capital, and it will probably take a while...Liu Langjun should also get a wife, and it's not appropriate to live in Cui's house all the time."

"Liu Langjun was born in the Liu family of Pengcheng. Although he is a side branch, he is also a son of a famous family. Now that he has passed the examination of the bridegroom, he will not be sloppy in marrying a wife."

Yuan's heart moved, there are several cousins ​​who are about to marry Ji, although they are not direct descendants, but they are also daughters of the Yuan family in Wu County, and they are also from a second-rate family.

Xiao Nan saw what Yuan Shi was thinking, so he smiled and nodded, "Yes, Liu Langjun is young and talented, prudent and polite, even my grandma likes it very much, and she said that she would help him choose a good wife."

Yuan's eyes jumped, and she immediately understood Xiao Nan's meaning, and she sighed slightly in her heart: Alas, it seems that Mrs. Cui has also taken a fancy to Liu Langjun.The Cui family, the Cui family still has three unmarried girls of the right age.

Speaking of the three young ladies of Cui's family, Yuan Shi suddenly remembered something again, suppressed her smile and said to Xiao Nan: "There is one more thing, I wonder if my sister has heard about it?"

Xiao Nan raised his eyebrows slightly, "What's the matter? My sister-in-law also knows that since my mother gave birth that day and I was diagnosed with pregnancy, she never went out again. Except for Ah Ming who occasionally told me some funny stories, I don't know anything about ordinary things. I don't know."

Yuan Shi looked around and said in a low voice, "I heard that Princess Shu is dying. There are rumors in the market that the Cui family wants to choose one of their young ladies who have not left the court to marry the King of Shu, so as to take care of what Princess Shu left behind. how many kids……"

Xiao Nan's face changed slightly, and she asked anxiously: "There is such a thing? What else has my sister-in-law heard?"

Seeing Xiao Nan's face change, Yuan Shi guessed that the rumors in the market were definitely not groundless, there must be something wrong with the Cui family, because it was related to her sister-in-law's family, she didn't hide it, and told all the news she had heard. Tell Xiao Nan.

In the early morning of the next day, Xiao Nan sent Cui Da to work as usual, and then went to the main hall to greet the old lady.

The old lady first asked how the twins' moon feast was going, and then asked about the fetus in Xiao Nan's womb and Cui Da's progress in the Yamen and other matters.

Xiao Nan answered the old lady's questions one by one, then winked at the old lady.

The old lady understood, and waved her hand to send out the maids and women in the hall, leaving only Mother Qiu to wait for orders.

Xiao Nan went to the old lady's bed, told the old lady all the news from Yuan Shi in a low voice, and finally added, "I heard that two days ago, a personal maid of the third sister came out of the house and said It was the third younger sister who ran out of paint for making flower paper, and went to buy paint for the third younger sister, and then the maid bought some paint and hard yellow paper."

The old lady found out the problem, "Awei is a woman, and she doesn't open the inscription, what is she doing with the hard yellow paper?"

Hard yellow paper is a very valuable paper in the Tang Dynasty. It is soaked in hemp paper with yellow tiller juice, and then coated with yellow wax on the surface of the paper, which can not only prevent insects from eating, but also make the paper moisture-proof and shiny.The paper of this kind of craft is yellow and tough, and it will last for a long time.

Because of the high cost of this kind of paper, people generally only use it when rubbing inscriptions or copying Buddhist scriptures.

Cui Wei is a woman in the inner house, so naturally she won't go out to dig inscriptions, so is she copying Buddhist scriptures?I heard that Concubine Yang in the palace and the nurse of the King of Shu all believed in Buddhism, and even Cui Zhi, the concubine of the King of Shu who was on the sick bed, was a Buddhist.

Xiao Nan thought about it, and the old lady guessed it too. She rubbed a string of agarwood beads in her hand, squinted her eyes and thought for a long time before sighing: "This child, Awei, is really dedicated to Buddha."

Xiao Nan's eyes flickered, and he immediately understood the meaning of the old lady's words: Since Cui Wei likes to copy Buddhist scriptures, then send her to the nunnery to copy enough.

Guessing Cui Wei's possible end, Xiao Nan couldn't help but sigh, alas, this fellow countryman, why is she not good at learning.

However, in the days that followed, Xiao Nan was busy raising the baby and teaching his daughter how to speak, so he had no time to pay attention to other people's affairs.

Summer goes to autumn, autumn goes to winter solstice, and in a blink of an eye, it is early winter at the end of October.

October [-]th is Cui Lingxi's first birthday.

In the past, due to various reasons, the little one failed to celebrate the full moon and hundred days. Now that the troubles at home have gradually settled down, Xiao Nan decided to hold a grand Zhouzhou banquet for his daughter...

PS: Originally I just wanted to take a nap, but I fell asleep until the evening, and a certain Sa couldn't help but sighed to the sky. Could it be that he is evolving into the second brother? !
