Kido

Chapter 108

Qinian had a worried expression on his face, "Holy bow, it's really annoying..." He covered his face with the brocade handkerchief in his hand, his shoulders trembled slightly, obviously crying.The emperor lives in the Qianqing Palace every day, but now the Qianqing Palace is like an iron bucket, and even the queen cannot enter.The only one who has been in and out of the Qianqing Palace and can inquire about it a little bit is this little cousin in front of me.

"Second sister, don't be sad." Liu Nian was soft-hearted, gently pulled Qinian's skirt, and told her in a whisper, "Although His Majesty is ill, there is King Liao. King Liao has handled all important military affairs, and kneels before the emperor. Your Majesty reads out one by one beforehand, nothing will be delayed."

Qinian bit her lip.The king of Liao took advantage of the fact that his sage was ill, and he acted so hypocritically, it was truly deplorable.The Marquis of Dinghai is the in-law of Duke Wei's mansion, and has always been loyal to the crown prince. If the King of Liao ascends to the throne... no matter how good the sons of the Marquis of Dinghai are, no matter how good they are at fighting, their wealth will come to an end.

Qinian put down the brocade handkerchief, her eyes were still sad.Seeing her like this in a fleeting time, I feel sorry, "Second sister, don't worry, His Majesty has Jing Xiao to take care of her. After all, it is the original match. When His Majesty sees Jing Xiao, his eyes will be gentle." Good old acquaintances.

Silly Xiaoqi, this is what makes people worry.Qinian smiled wryly in her heart, the emperor was seriously ill, the original wife was serving by her side, the empress could not see the emperor.The prince is far away in Nanjing, and it is the king of Liao who handles government affairs instead of the emperor.If this continues, the person who will sit on that chair in the future may not be who.

Fleeting Nian looks innocent, "If you are sick, you have to take bitter medicine. It's very pitiful. It's the same if you are an emperor. Second sister, fortunately, I have been in good health since I was young, so I won't get sick." When Qinian saw that she didn't understand anything, Thinking that the emperor just got sick and took bitter medicine, he couldn't help but sighed faintly.The old lady doted on Xiao Qi so much that even though she was thirteen or fourteen years old, she was still a childlike innocence and a child at heart.It was nothing when I was a child, but it is still the same when I grow up, and it is inevitable that I will suffer.

Qinian took his little cousin by the hand, wanting to tell her how to behave in the world.When it was time to speak, I felt unable to speak.Liu Nian raised his white jade flawless face, and smiled playfully at Qinian.With my cousin, silence speaks louder at this time.

Qi Nian went back again to reminisce with You Nian and Hua Nian.Younian and Huanian are talking about children. Younian has two sons and a daughter, and Huanian has a son.However, Hua Nian's son was raised by his grandfather and grandmother and was not brought to the capital.

When it comes to children, there are the most young ones.She had a son and a daughter by her own birth, and a son and three daughters by her concubine. If she wanted to take them all out, there would be a huge crowd.In the past few years, Dengshikou Street has never brought up children, and there are too many children from concubines, so I can't afford to lose this person.

In this regard, You Nian and Hua Nian are much better than Qi Nian, and there are no concubines in the family.The Du family is because Du Ge is old and disliked, "The birth mother is from a low family background, and the child is not much better." Besides, there are years to give birth.The reason for the Mi family is that they only pay attention to sex when taking concubines. The two concubines are delicate and beautiful.

In terms of wealth, Qi Nian is one of the best among sisters.When it comes to offspring, Qi Nian is the most unbearable.Thinking of the Yingyingyanyan house in Dinghaihou's Mansion, and the unpredictable schemes, Qinian suddenly felt dull.What is the wealth and honor obtained through such painstaking efforts?

In the afternoon, Ding Zhe personally came to pick up Qinian.First I went to see the old man and the old lady, and then exchanged greetings with Qi Nian, Yang Nian, Zhi Nian, Bai Nian, Mi Rui, etc., with a happy face and thoughtful etiquette.When you Nian and Hua Nian heard about it, they joked with Qinian, "I'm an old couple, and they are so considerate!" Qinian's face turned rouge, and she felt that her life was not bad.

Ding Zhe accompanied Qinian into the carriage, very tenderly.Qi Nian couldn't help but tell everything about Xie's family, Ding Zhe pondered for a long time, then warmly praised, "I'm here to thank Qier." He had seen Xiao Qi in Xie's family, she was very nice, but she was too spoiled, innocent and unscheming .Although what she said was full of childishness, there were merits.

The Erfang family lingered until late at night, until Uncle Xie, Fourth Master Xie, Yannian, and Tang Nian left the Yamen, and Song Nian and He Nian also returned home from the Imperial College, and they met in a grand manner.Uncle Xie met Qinian and Yangnian, tested his knowledge, and nodded with satisfaction, "My son, adoptive son, after the year, uncle will think of a way, so let's send you to study in the Imperial College." It is a good place to study.

They were overjoyed in their new years and raised their heads, and bowed to the end, "Thank you uncle for your concern." The two of them have lived in Taikang for a long time, and although they have also invited teachers, they always feel that their studies are not diligent because they have no famous teachers to guide them.Now that he is expected to study in the Guozijian, of course he can't wish for it.

Mi Rui coughed twice.Why does the uncle Hua Nian only care about his age and raising his age, but not himself?There is no reason for this.It was Xie's family who proposed marriage back then, and put on a generous dowry to marry Hua Nian to him.If you don't see yourself as a young celebrity, why should the Xie family be like this?Uncle is a delicate guest, so don't wait too long. When my aunt sees me, she always rushes away like a pot of fire.Why is her uncle, the elder of the pavilion, unexpectedly impolite.

Uncle Xie didn't pay attention to Mi Rui at all, and changed the conversation to talk about Taikang's old affairs.Qi Nian, Yang Nian and the others naturally agree, and a group of men from the Xie family recalled their hometown with great interest, leaving Mi Rui aside.Mi Rui is self-confident that she is a young boy, and she is also a delicate guest of the Xie family, so she can't help but look a little arrogant.Uncle Xie is an upright person, how can he look like a son-in-law.Du Xu is his son-in-law, and he has always been respectful when meeting him.What's more, the children of the Xie family are taught by the Xie family, and the children of the Mi family are taught by the parents of the Mi family, so what should they do to the Xie family.Mi's parents have never entrusted their children's careers, and the Xie family can't do it for them.

It was rare for the grandchildren to gather so well, Mr. Xie was so happy that he could not close his mouth from ear to ear.In the evening, there is a banquet, and the cups and cups are interlaced. They drink until the lights are on, and then they say their goodbyes in a leisurely way.Uncle Xie and Fourth Master Xie naturally acted competently and escorted them all the way back to Donghuaian Hutong.Seeing that the arrangements for Qi Nian and Yang Nian have been settled, the steward returned to Xie's mansion to give his orders.

The second wife went back to East Cotton Alley, her teeth itching with hatred.Today, she repeatedly hinted in front of the old lady that "the houses in Dongmianhua Hutong are narrow and I really can't live in them" and "it's getting late, my daughter-in-law is really tired", but the old lady Xie always looked indifferent and didn't answer the words at all.The eldest wife and the fourth wife smiled happily, "Are the carriages and horses ready? Be careful on the road" in a gesture of seeing off guests.

Wen Shi and Wu Shi went all the way back to their room after serving the second wife to rest. "Both are descendants of the Xie family, really incomparable." Wu Shi expressed his gratitude.Take a look at Dengshikou Street, the place is prosperous and occupies a vast area. The Mu family, Cui family, Xi family and others all have their own beautiful courtyards, which are spacious, spacious, rich and elegant.Anyone's yard is much better than the three-entry house in Donghuaian Hutong.

Wen's heart is also envious, and he can say something fair on the face, "He is a direct branch, we are a common branch, and we can't compare." The old lady rewarded herself with a red gold headgear today, shining golden, Portions are plentiful.The old lady didn't care about it at all, obviously this set of red gold hair was nothing to her.The uncle and the fourth master should have such a mother, they should be richer than the second room.

Wen's and Wu's were just a few general remarks, but Mi Rui in the backyard lost her temper with Hua Nian, scolded Hua Nian angrily, turned around and went into the concubine's room angrily.His two concubines were extremely slender and weak, relying on him like the sky, always made him feel extremely comfortable.

He wasn't like this before!Hua Nian sat alone until late at night, unable to sleep.Before getting married, my cousin was a high-spirited young talent, and he won the exam at the age of 20!The mother thought that he had good character and talent, so she resolutely let herself marry.Who thought he would become like this after marriage?And in-laws, when they were just my uncles and aunts, how loving the two old people were.When they became parents-in-law, they became strict all of a sudden.

Thinking of her in-laws, Hua Nian felt even more miserable.In recent years, her mother-in-law has been quite resentful. What is she complaining about?Complaining that Hua Nian brought too much dowry. "It's all because of you that Rui'er was distracted and didn't get a Jinshi." At first, she was only thinking about studying, but when she became rich, she became sensual and playful, so she didn't improve in her studies.Too much dowry has also become a problem, making it impossible for people to live.

On October [-], Mrs. Xie's grandson and granddaughter gathered in the capital.Xie Fengnian also came to Beijing with her husband and son-in-law. Her father-in-law and husband-in-law are both in the army. They have made military exploits and been promoted over the years.Because Xie Fengnian got these promotions after entering the family, Xie Fengnian was regarded as the daughter-in-law of the "Wang Fu Wang family", and was treated very well in the Miao family.This time, her husband-in-law Miao Jianjie was promoted to a thousand households in the Beijing camp, and took his wife and children to the post.

The Miao family set up a small house in Nancheng. Xie Fengnian and Miao Jianjie arrived in the capital on the [-]th. On the [-]th, they first went to Beibingmasi Hutong to meet with Mr. Xie, Mrs. Xie and Mr. Xie. Suddenly, he saw Fengnian's satisfied smile, accompanied by his handsome husband-in-law, and his delicate children in his hands. He couldn't tell what it was like, but he was ashamed and happy at the same time.As a father, I have never taken care of her. This daughter has been like a weed since she was a child, and she has lived a comfortable life.

The third wife was very happy to see her nephew.When they see Feng Nian, they put on a straight face, and they don't even want to see Miao Jianjie's two children, the scum of a low life!Miao Jianjie and the third wife were close at first, but since the third wife refused to promise to marry Qinian, they became a little distant.The disgusted expression of the third wife seeing her two children was reflected in Miao Jianjie's eyes, and Miao Jianjie's face sank.After having a meal and wine at noon, he left with his wife and children.

On the [-]th day, Fengnian and his wife went to Dengshikou Street with their children.Fengnian is the daughter of a concubine, she has always been a poor little girl who hides in a corner and is unknown.It's different now. Although the Miao family is not rich, they are not poor either. Fengnian, the young lady of the Miao family, stands out, and she is not much worse than Hua Nian and others.

Mrs. Xie talked to Miao Jianjie for a while in the study room, happily stroked his white beard, "I am quite like Naizu, I am quite like Naizu." Miao Jianjie's grandfather and Mr. Xie were old acquaintances, that's why Mr. Xie married the Miao family Daughter, third wife.

Feng Nian sat in Xuanhui Hall and had a chat with the old lady. "Originally, I wanted to stay in my hometown to serve my in-laws, but my in-laws said that no one around my husband can take good care of me, so I ordered me to follow." Feng Nian said softly with a rosy face.

The old lady didn't have any feelings for Fengnian, but she was kind-hearted and had compassion for Fengnian.Seeing that Fengnian looks good, she has both children, her parents-in-law and husband-in-law are considerate, and she is also happy for her.Fengnian is not like Huanian. From the very beginning, he didn't intend to be honored by the Xie family. The old lady appreciates this backbone.

After half a day of happy gathering, Miao Jianjie and his wife left by car.Fleeting Nian secretly asked the old lady, "Why does the nephew of the third aunt's natal family seem to be reliable? It's really strange." The third wife is so weird that she has a reasonable natal family?The second wife is much better than the third wife, but her natal nephew can't watch it.

The old lady gave her a sideways glance, "Kids, what do you know?" Dare to talk about elders.Fleeting Years is not afraid of her, pestering her to ask the truth, "Grandmother, I care about Fourth Sister." No matter what the real reason is, the words must be high-sounding.

The old lady leaned on the Arhat's bed, with a half-smile, "I want to go." She couldn't even figure this out, so it was fine.Fleeting Nian tilted his head and thought for a moment, then suddenly realized, "Got it. The old man and grandfather of the Miao family are old friends, and the third aunt's marriage was arranged by the grandfather!" Maybe the old lady is lazy and cares about the concubine, or maybe the old man is partial to the concubine, In short, the marriage between Second Master Xie and Third Master Xie was decided by the old lady.Old man, he can only look at his father and brother, but not his mother or daughter.

So the marriage between Xie Erye and Xie Sanye will be like this.The old man of the Miao family and the uncle of the Miao family have good character and ability, so the old man would want to marry a girl from the Miao family as his daughter-in-law.But he never dreamed that the third wife would have such a virtue.

The old lady squinted at Fleeting Years, with a hint of admiration.Look at how smart my Xiaoqi is, if you think about it this way, you will know the cause and effect of things that happened many years ago!With a self-satisfied smile, he walked around in front of the old lady with his little head held high, more arrogant than a peacock, which made the old lady laugh.

On October 21, Qi Nian made a special trip to Xie Mansion and strongly invited Rui Nian Jin Nian to "come to the house to enjoy the flowers tomorrow".The old lady cheerfully declined, "It's just a coincidence that your eldest aunt will go back to her natal home tomorrow." Naturally, the three maids stayed at home with their aunt.

Rui Nian originally loved going out, but at this moment he was dissatisfied with the Dinghaihou Mansion.Your family's Ding family is also strange, is there such a treat?One day in advance?When our girl from the Xie family is idle at home and has nothing to do, let you invite her to come and go?Don't think about it!

Jinnian's grandmother came from Dinghaihou's mansion, so she was more tolerant of Dinghaihou's mansion. "My wife thinks it's because the winter is boring, isn't that the reason?" Looking at Qinian sympathetically, the second elder sister looked anxious, almost sweating.Presumably her mother-in-law is strict and will not be violated.

Liu Nian raised his face and grinned, not thinking about anything, "Tomorrow is really bad, even if my aunt doesn't go back to her mother's house, I can't go to the appointment. The princess will take me into the palace." His majesty the emperor is ill, and Princess Hanshan is alone Entering the palace is afraid, she wants me to accompany her.
