Good morning Mr. Zhongtang

Chapter 24

The matter of Fu Heng's injury was indeed concealed. He still went to the city defense camp to stand guard every day, and left in the morning under Tong Wanrou's caring eyes. , she stood at the alley and waited for him to come back.

A few days later, Tong Wanrou was learning how to make dim sum with Li Shi in the kitchen, but there was a light knock on the door outside, the two looked at each other, Li Shi wiped her flour-stained hands on the apron , Then I went out of the kitchen to open the door.

Standing outside the door was a handsome woman, not so gorgeously dressed, and with a simple bun, Li Shi looked at her and didn't speak for a long time, because the person standing outside the door was someone she never expected to come.

Fifth Aunt Ji Yao stood outside the door in a simple and elegant outfit, and the two maids following behind were holding many things in their hands.

Seeing Mrs. Li coming to open the door, Ji Yao smiled at Mrs. Li, with a delicate face and a simple bun, and her whole body exuded a kind of delicacy of a young family from the south of the Yangtze River.

"Sister, I'm here to see you."

Ji Yao smiled awkwardly at Mrs. Li, as if a little timid, raised her hands to the two maids behind her, and asked the two maids to move all the things in their hands into the yard, and put them on the stone table in the yard superior.

Li originally thought that she was here to find her bad luck like Liu Fushu did, but she didn't expect that she came to give something.

I saw Ji Yao biting her lower lip, as if she couldn't let go of her posture, it's no wonder, after all, her previous identity was like a mountain on her shoulders, although now she is a first-rank aunt in the court, but in the mansion But she has no status. The master has never stepped into her small courtyard since he married her. Although the cost is not harsh, no one really takes her seriously.

"I only found out that my sister was suffering a few days ago, so I came here to visit. Is my sister okay?"

After saying this, Ji Yao came to Li Shi's side, held Li Shi's hand, lowered her eyes softly and beautifully, looking like she was about to cry.

Li Shi withdrew his hand without showing any signs, and said to Ji Yao: "Oh, thank you for your concern, I am doing well. These things..."

Seeing that Mrs. Li was indifferent to her, Ji Yao didn't say a word, she just said: "My sister is soft-spoken, I can't ask for forgiveness for my elder sister. I heard that my sister's supplies are lacking here, so my younger sister bought these. Please accept it."

Mrs. Li looked at the things piled up on the stone table, and was a little embarrassed: "This...isn't good. You should take it back. I appreciate your kindness, but if the eldest lady finds out, I won't." I have your good fruit to eat."

In his heart, Li was unwilling to accept Ji Yao's gift. After all, the two were not familiar with each other before, and they had never met before. In addition, Ji Yao's identity was placed there, so it was neither awkward nor embarrassing. It was overwhelming.But Li Shi has a problem with his character, that is, when he is strong, he is strong, and when he is weak, he is weak.

If you fight against her and face difficulties everywhere, she will become stronger and stronger without fear, but if you greet her with a smile, then... no matter how big the hatred is, she will also give way.

What's more, she had no enmity with Ji Yao in the past.

"Sister, what you said is off the mark. Although I have been in the world, I have read books for a few days and understand the right and wrong. I can see what happened to my sister. I wish I could help you with all my strength. If my sister refuses to accept me With such kind intentions, that sister really loses face."

As Ji Yao was talking, her eyes really turned red, she looked sincere and sincere, she saw it in her eyes without knowing it, and thought she and Li Shi had a good relationship and a harmonious relationship in the past.

Li's ears are delicate, and she can't stand soft words and persuasion, so she immediately let go of her guard and said to Ji Yao:

"Okay, okay, can't I accept it? Don't cry."

Ji Yao then used a handkerchief to tuck the corners of her eyes, Tong Wanrou stood by the door and looked at her, wondering where there were tears in the corners of her eyes.But the mother-in-law is soft-hearted, and Fifth Auntie's acting skills are indeed very good, and her words are also sincere and sincere, which can't be refused.

After Ji Yao sent the things out, her mood went smoothly, and she chatted with Li Shi again, Li Shi invited her in for a cup of tea, but she never really went in, she only blessed Li Shi outside, and then Then he withdrew.

After she left, Tong Wanrou came out of the kitchen and came to Li Shi's side, looking at the things Ji Yao sent with her.

"Mom, I think this fifth aunt is a bit strange, can I accept her things?"

Mrs. Li opened a box and saw a precious old wild ginseng inside, and sighed quietly: "Things can be collected, but her feelings cannot be remembered."

Tong Wanrou nodded, thinking her mother-in-law was not too confused, she said again: "Since you don't remember your feelings, can that thing still be used?"

After thinking about it, Mrs. Li shook her head and said:

"No, let's move all the things into the kitchen and arrange them, and return them to her when we have a chance later."

"Yes, mother." Tong Wanrou nodded after receiving the order, and moved her hands obediently.

After more than ten days, Fu Heng's shoulder injury was almost healed, Tong Wanrou finally didn't have to worry about it every day, and lived in panic.

During this period, Li Rongbao came to their small courtyard once, but it happened that Mrs. Li poured water outside the courtyard, soaking Li Rongbao who broke in without a sound. Angrily left.

Tong Wanrou looked at her father-in-law who came and went without a trace, and asked Li Shi who was holding a water basin:
"Mother, do you want to bring Dad back?"

Seeing Li Rongbao's disappearing back, Mrs. Li shook her head lightly: "No need. He will come for the first time, and he will come for the second time."

However, several days later, Li Rongbao never came to their courtyard again.

Fu Heng took back one month's salary from the city defense battalion, and handed it over to Tong Wanrou. Tong Wanrou looked at the money in his hand and thought about it, and then let Xianggong hand it over to her mother-in-law for management.

"Why did you give it to your mother?" Fu Heng thought it would be better to hand over his salary to his daughter-in-law.

Tong Wanrou smiled at him and said: "Mother is better at housekeeping than we are. Now it's not as good as before. Life is already rigid. If I use up the extra, then what can I do?"

Fu Heng laughed: "Just use it, I planned to add clothes for you and your mother, and buy another piece of jewelry for you."

"I know Xianggong's kindness. Be obedient, go and give this to mother. Don't tell her that I gave it to you."

As Tong Wanrou said, she pushed Fu Heng outside, and Fu Heng took the money bag to Mrs. Li's room.

In the evening, after the two couples made out in the tent, Tong Wanrou was so tired that she lay limply on Fu Heng's chest, listening to her heartbeat and his heartbeat quietly.

Fu Heng let out a breath of satisfaction, kissed Tong Wanrou on the top of her head again, wrapped her right hand around her tender shoulders, and brought her closer to him, feeling the skin-to-skin kiss that only a husband and wife can have.

"Today, Minister of the Ministry of Officials came to look for me in the city defense camp." Fu Heng said casually, looking at the simple curtains around him.

Tong Wanrou's head moved slightly, and after a long delay, she finally raised her head. Two big watery eyes looked at Fu Heng, causing the evil fire in his stomach that had just rested to rise again.

"He asked me some very ordinary questions and then walked away."

Tong Wanrou rested her chin on his chest and asked innocently: "What does the Minister of the Ministry of Officials want to do?"

Fu Heng put one hand behind his head and shook his head: "I don't know, but I have an intuition, it will never be a bad thing."

Tong Wanrou still didn't understand, so Fu Heng stopped trying to keep it to himself, and told her directly what was in his heart.

"Didn't I save my grandfather before? He is now protected by the emperor in the palace. I heard that he is going to be kept for reuse. If my grandfather mentions me as a grandson before the emperor, then it can't be said..."

Tong Wanrou looked at him with blinking eyes, and couldn't help feeling his joy, and then he said:
"You don't have to be a city gatekeeper in the city defense battalion if you can't say it? What will the emperor seal you for... huh!"

Late October is the day when the latest batch of guards selected by the palace will officially enter the palace. Fu Xin, the sixth son of the Fucha Mansion, was appointed as a fourth-class guard, wearing a silver scabbard knife, and the imperial guard. The sixth son is the Fucha family. It is not a high honor to be a fourth-class guard in the palace, and it is also the ending that everyone has already guessed. Therefore, after the imperial decree came down, the Guarjia family did not have too much surprise, and ordered people to seal him. I gave a package to the Xuanzhi eunuch.

I thought that the eunuch in the palace would leave directly, but unexpectedly, he still stayed and asked him, and the ninth son, Fu Heng, shrank back.

It turned out that there was another imperial decree in the palace, which was to be handed over to the Ninth Prince Fu Heng.

The imperial decree says: the king's kindness is great, and Fucha Fu Heng is chivalrous, emphasizing love and righteousness, and is specially recorded as a fourth-class guard, serving in front of the emperor.
