Fu Qiuning looked them up and down, smiled slightly and said, "Since Madam is so considerate and considerate, let's stay." After saying that, he turned around and said to Shi and Luo: "Mother and Aunt Luo only have two people. Is it enough for a maid to serve you?"
"Why it's not enough? I'm just cleaning the house." Luo Shi said with a smile, glanced at the incense ring and vanilla standing in the house, then looked back, and said to Fu Qiuning: "I heard those people said you bring them back The gift is very generous, silly boy, you are walking on thin ice in the palace. Now that you have come back with such a rich gift, won't it be even more difficult for you to be a good person in the future? Why let yourself suffer in the future just for the limelight of this moment?"
Fu Qiuning said with a smile: "Aunt Luo, please don't say that. These gifts were all prepared by the young Marquis for me. I was in a hurry. If I had been given two more days, I wouldn't have been so simple. He is still very nice to me now." of."
When Mrs. Yu heard this, she was relieved and said: "This will put your mind at ease. Don't think that if you don't tell me, you won't know. It must have been a difficult time when you first got married. Otherwise, you can't not go back every six years." Come visit me at home. Fortunately, my son still has some luck. After enduring all the hardships until now, he has finally come to an end. If mother had known that this day would come to you, she wouldn’t have had her hair turn white and her eyes almost go blind.”
Fu Qiuning held her mother's skinny hand tightly, with a hint of firmness in her tone, and said softly: "This is natural. Mother, please relax. We will always have a good life in the future." As he said this, his heart turned. I made up my mind and secretly thought of a way to get my mother and Aunt Luo out of this den of tigers and wolves. Once the Zhenjiang Palace loses power, there is no need to be dragged down by that heartless father. No, this matter really needs to be carefully planned.
The mother and daughter talked for a while, and then it was lunch time. Thanks to Fu Qiuning, Luo Shi and Yu Shi got a very sumptuous meal. Xianghuan was serving dishes beside him and said with a smile: "Originally, my wife's intention was to let my aunt go to the front to use it. Later, the master said that my aunt just and When my aunt met, she couldn't bear to leave, but she couldn't get up, so she asked me to bring the food over."
Fu Qiuning smiled and said, "Yes, daddy is really considerate of me." While picking up food for Yu and Luo. Then he turned around and ordered: "There is no need to prepare the dishes here. You have also taken the regular dishes and eaten them with Yu Niang Yu Jie." After saying that, Xiang Huan was still hesitant, so she raised her eyebrows and said, "What? Aren’t my words useful in this house?”
Xiang Huan said he didn't dare, so he had to go. Luo Shi whispered: "Who are you here to serve? They are all here to pay homage to God. You must be careful what you say." After saying this, Fu Qiuning smiled and nodded: "I naturally know this, don't worry about it, aunt. "
She was talking about her life in the Marquis' Mansion and finished her meal soon. Yu was weak and had to take a nap every afternoon. She was also happy to see her daughter come back radiant today. She didn't want to sleep, but Luo persuaded her again and again. Then he lay down and fell asleep.
Fu Qiuning and Luo Shi came outside and whispered: "Aunt Luo, what's the condition of my mother's legs? It's just that she is ill in bed. I see that her complexion and body are not bad. Is there something wrong with her legs? ? To the point of paralysis?"
Aunt Luo smiled and said: "Don't worry, it's not paralysis, it's just a weak body, and I don't have much nourishment on weekdays, so I have to lie in bed. Now that you are back, she is relieved, and I guess she will gradually get better in the future."
Fu Qiuning nodded and said: "I see, I'm relieved." She took out a purse from her arms and handed it to Luo Shi, saying: "Aunt Luo, here are twenty taels of silver. The family in the house has a big business. You and my mother If you are not favored by my father, it is inevitable that no one will take care of you. Look at this money. I usually ask someone to buy some tonics for me to eat. I am doing well in that mansion now. If it can be better in the future, I can be better. Look after you more, and let’s make do with it for the time being.”
Luo Shi hurriedly said: "How can this be done? It's hard for you in that mansion. How can there be so much money for us..." Because he refused very much, Fu Qiuning laughed and said: My monthly monthly income is only five taels, so what? There are no big flowers in the house, so I am better than you anyway. Yin finally forced Luo Shi to accept it, and whispered: "There is no need to let my mother know about this matter. You just made something secretly and you two can eat it yourself, which saves her from having to worry about me." "
After living in Songtao Pavilion for two days, on the third day, Fu Qiuning felt that the time was almost up, and he was afraid that the Jin Xianghou Mansion would soon send someone to pick him up. This was what she had agreed with Jin Fengju that day. In order to highlight that he was really good to her, he would not let her live in her parents' house for a long time, and also to reassure the Prince of Zhenjiang and his son that Fu Qiuning was indeed very favored and was not doing it to deceive them. Pretending to be favored.
Because on this day, he and Yujie Yuniang went to the garden together, driving Xianghuan Vanilla away all the way, and it seemed that the three of them wanted to talk about themselves. In fact, I had known that if I lurked slowly through the bushes, I would be able to reach behind the rockery. So the three of them started chatting like normal gossip.
Xianghuan Xianghua was very anxious. The master and his wife sent them here to spy and investigate. Why did they stand so far away to investigate? When he was in a hurry, he heard Si'er whisper: "You two girls, please cover me. If my aunt asks, you must make up a lie. I'll sneak through the bushes and hide behind the rockery." I can hear them talking.
Xianghuan Vanilla all agreed that this was a good idea and rushed over. The boy gathered his energy and climbed all the way to the rockery. He heard Fu Qiuning say angrily: "Dad thinks that I am working hard for the palace, why don't you see how he treats my mother? Tell me to see, blindly clinging to the palace, It's a bit silly. I'm leaving my husband's family's glory and wealth behind just for them. If they lose power in the future and I find out that I'm cheating on them, will I still have a good son at that time?"
Yujie nodded slightly to Qiu Ning, indicating that she had noticed the movement of the bush, indicating that the person was almost behind the rockery. Yu Niang then asked: "Is grandma determined to give up the palace and only focus on treating the young prince?"
Fu Qiuning sneered and said: "It is the most stupid thing to rely on one force to guarantee this. Naturally, we have to think of a good way. It is best to be able to step on both sides. However, I am still optimistic about the young Marquis. His His intelligence and intelligence are truly rare in this world."
Yujie said with a smile: "Yes, yes, according to grandma's wishes, it would be great if we could get back on the line with Prince Lie's Mansion." After saying that, Fu Qiuning chuckled, shook his head and said: "Prince Lie? That's all. He is in charge of frost prevention and disaster prevention in the capital, and he has actually frozen to death dozens of people. There are also two of his closest officials in Liaodong, which are even more outrageous. They have frozen to death so many people. . If the emperor knows about this, what good can he do? At least for the time being, don’t think about being in the limelight. "
Yuniang smiled and said: "What grandma said is that Prince Lie will definitely fall into a big trap this time. I only admire you. How can he know this?"
Fu Qiuning smiled and said: "That's why I said that the young Marquis is really a rare talent in the world. The biggest advantage of Prince Narong marrying his sister is not that he gets a princess, but that he can get the dedicated assistance of his brother-in-law. I think Prince Nahong and his grandfather and father were smart at first, but they didn’t even think of checking this aspect. Otherwise, Prince Ren Nalie’s hands and eyes were very good, how could he hide it from them? All he had to do was hand over a piece of paper. , Prince Lie will not be punished, how can he not reward someone who works so respectfully and loyally? Let me say something that should not be said, if the prince does not appoint such a person, who else will he appoint? "
Yujie said in surprise: "If you say this, wouldn't our Hou Mansion... also want to follow Prince Rong to get the glory? No wonder grandma said that she is more interested in the Hou Mansion. When this matter comes out, it is not..."
Fu Qiuning nodded and said angrily: "Just understand it in your heart, there is no need to say it out loud. What's more, it's hard to decide. These three princes are all equally matched. It's hard to guarantee that nothing else will happen in the future. Salted Fish Haven’t you heard too many stories about turning over and being overjoyed to become sad? Besides, where is this place? You still have to be careful what you say."
Yujie said aggrievedly: "In the final analysis, this is not our own home. It's hard to say something private, but we have to send those people who have heard of the news far away. Grandma, when can we go back to the Hou Mansion?" ah?"
Fu Qiuning smiled and said: "Look at how hard you are holding it back. Don't worry, it's time to go back either today or tomorrow."
Yu Niang said with a smile: "This slave is also looking forward to going back, but when she saw those Ear Report Gods, she could only watch them from a distance. She was anxious but didn't know what we were saying, and she felt happy. It's just that I was confused. Since I have all We have found out Prince Nalie’s crime, why can’t we get rid of it?”
Fu Qiuning said: "It's time to go. I just said that the time was not coming, but now so many people have frozen to death, I think Long Yan is angry enough. I'm afraid that in two days, Prince Rong will hand over the certificate." Well. After all, we women don’t need to worry about these things, let them take care of them. We should think of a way to return home. We stayed for three days, which was not too short, and my mother’s illness has improved greatly. These days If I don't go back, will my wives and concubines be able to live freely? Why don't you quickly take this opportunity to stir up trouble in front of me and the old lady? I get anxious when I think about this."
"What are you afraid of, grandma? The young marquis is just in love with grandma, and he will never listen to the instigation of that little screwdriver..." Yu Niang finished speaking with a smile, helped Fu Qiuning, and the three of them walked away in style. When they walked to Xianghuan Vanilla, , as if he just realized that there was a boy missing, Fu Qiuning looked slightly surprised, but asked calmly: "Where is Si'er? Are you lazy for a while?"
Xianghuan said hurriedly: "The second door said that his brother came to see him. He didn't know what happened at home, so I made the decision and sent him back first. It doesn't matter. Just call the wife back later. Miss, do you have any errands? ? Instruct the slaves and Wu'er to do the same."
