Seeing this scene, Xiaobao realized that he might have spoiled his parents' good deeds.
Feeling a little embarrassed, he looked around casually: "Mother, where is the second treasure, is it in the east chamber? My son is going to change clothes, and I will take a look at my younger brother." After saying that, Xiaobao turned his head and went out.
Yaoniang turned to King Jin with her eyes, and King Jin squinted to look at her.
"It's all you, you are not serious, almost let Xiaobao bump into you."
King Jin leaned back on the kang again, adjusted his posture, so that the abnormality of the hem of his clothes would not be too obvious: "Even if he bumps into it, he won't understand."
Yaoniang spat at him in her heart, stood up quickly, and hurried into the back room to look in the mirror.
Ever since she got a diorama, Yaoniang used to like to take pictures of it, firstly it is clear, and secondly it can take pictures of her whole body. If there is something wrong, you can see it yourself, and you don't need the girls to help you.
She took off the zoetrope covered with the blue and blue swastika embroidered origami plum cover, and a woman with a hanging cloud bun and a lotus-blue summer shirt appeared in the mirror.
Her skin is firm and fat, her eyes are like lacquer, her eyebrows are like distant blue, her cheeks are rosy red, as if she has rubbed rouge, and there are two puddles of water in her almond eyes. If it was before, Yaoniang would not be able to see the clue, but now she can see that it is restless spring love.
Yaoniang looked at herself in the mirror, and carefully checked for any inappropriateness. In fact, she mainly wanted to avoid King Jin, so that he would not become too beastly. Just as she saw it, King Jin came in, and when she saw his eyes, she felt bad, and was about to raise her voice to call out, but others had already embraced him.
King Jin hugged her from behind, bit her ear and said in a hoarse voice: "I don't care about it, you are responsible for solving the problems you caused." As he said, he grabbed her hand and reached down, Yao Niang begged for mercy. no.
"No, Xiaobao and Erbao will come over later."
"Then let's hurry up."
But the question is whether it can be done quickly, he won't give up every time he doesn't toss her to the ground.
"At night."
King Jin hummed, it was obvious that he couldn't do it.
It really doesn't work, the big thing in Yaoniang's hand is also roaring like this.
"How did this come in time?"
King Jin whispered something in her ear, and Yaoniang blushed even more.
…
After about a quarter of an hour, the two walked out of the bedroom together.
Yao Niang lowered her head unconsciously, while Jin Wang looked satisfied and refreshed.
Not long after Xiaobao and Erbao arrived, they were playing on the big kang.
Er Bao liked his brother so much, he raised two chubby hands and walked towards Xiao Bao, and when he successfully held the other's arm, he laughed so hard that he couldn't see his eyes, and called out his brother one after another. That cute little face is so sweet that it makes you sick.
Now Erbao can only call brother and mother, but not yet father. But Erbao knew who was the father, and when someone said the word 'father', he knew to look to King Jin.
When Xiaobao saw his parents coming out, he called out to his parents.
When Erbao heard this, he immediately turned his head and smiled.
Erbao has five teeth, and the other tooth grows slower, so only the head is exposed. Laughing like a little rabbit, he called his mother, then abandoned his brother hula hula and walked towards Yaoniang.
I didn't realize it was on the kang, but it would fall off.
Yaoniang walked over three steps at a time, hugged Erbao, and then the little thing smiled like a bunny in her mother's arms.
The child's interest came and went quickly, Erbao hugged Yaoniang's waist and smiled for a while, then abandoned his mother and went to find his brother. He walked very steadily on the kang, but he was always timid when he got off the ground. It was such a simple game of walking back and forth that Erbao could play for an hour without getting tired of it, and he was too energetic.
Yao Niang sat on the edge of the kang, keeping an eye on Erbao at all times to prevent him from falling, while Jin Wang sat on the Taishi chair opposite the big kang and drank tea.
He took a sip of tea, glanced at Yaoniang across the way through the lingering smoke, and remembered that she had bitten him just now in order to hurry up.
It was that one bite that made King Jin disarm, which was an insult to his prestige.
Yaoniang felt that King Jin was looking at her, and when she looked at him, she knew what he was thinking. While blushing, there was an urge to throw him out, but it was a pity that I could only think about it forever.
Fucheng walked in from the outside, came to King Jin, and said: "This old slave told my uncle the address of Xia's house, and he has already gone." King Jin nodded and said nothing.
Xiaobao looked up at Yaoniang, and asked, "Mother, uncle is here today?"
Yaoniang nodded, because she felt that it was not suitable for children to know the details, and she didn't elaborate with Xiaobao, but Xiaobao didn't ask too much.
Not to mention this side, on the other end Su Yucheng took the address of Xia's family and came to Xia's family in the slums of Xicheng.
Xia's family is not rich. Daddy Xia is a blacksmith and raised a son and a daughter with his wife Gao. In addition to Lancao, there is also Lancao's older brother Dazhu.
It is reasonable to say that a girl from a commoner family should never be sold as a slave, but that year when Father Xia got sick and the family had no money for treatment, he sold the orchid grass.
Lancao was also lucky, and was bought by the official family into the Jinwang Mansion, which had just been built.
At that time, the king of Jin was still underage and lived in the palace. When he became an adult, he was enfeoffed and left Beijing. A group of servants in the Prince Jin's Mansion in the middle of the capital fell into a honeypot. They took their monthly money, but they didn't have much work to do. They just had to finish their duties.
The palace allows redemption, so Lancao has been planning to go home after saving enough money for redemption. It's a pity that the idea is good, but the reality is cruel. She has been working in the palace for ten years and has not saved any money. Seeing that he is almost eighteen, Lancao attaches great importance to this opportunity.
It's a pity that some accidents happened in it, which completely changed the previous mood. Lancao obviously got the freedom she dreamed of, but she was very unhappy after returning home. The Xia family thought she had made a mistake and was kicked out of the palace.
Xia Dazhu is married to his wife, Ma Shi, and they have a son and a daughter. Unlike Father Xia, Xia Dazhu is a lazy eater, and married a daughter-in-law, Ma Shi, who is also a bitch and a small-minded woman.
In the past, my sister-in-law was a servant in the palace, and she had money in her hand, so she was eager to hold it. When Lancao came back this time, Ma Shi couldn't help but muttered without holding on for a long time.
At first she muttered that Lancao had made a mistake and was kicked out, and the more she talked, the more she felt heartbroken, and she began to complain that Lancao had cut off a source of income for the family.
How much money does Father Xia make as a blacksmith every month, and Xia Dazhu doesn't make any money. The Xia family is such a big family, if it wasn't for the monthly subsidies from Lancao, they don't know how to live.
Now that Lancao has returned from the palace, what will happen in the days to come
Lancao has long known that her sister-in-law is not to be tolerated, but she still thinks that there are parents and elder brothers at home. She was sold as a child, and with the monthly money, she began to take care of the two elders. No matter how poor the family was, she would not drive her daughter out of the house.
It is true that no one has chased her away now, but the house is full of smog, and my sister-in-law sees her as a black-eyed chicken, and always speaks bad words. She already feels uncomfortable, but this makes her even more depressed.
She felt bored at home, so she went to talk to her childhood playmates, but when she turned around, her suitcase was turned over.
There was a bag of orchid grass in the box, and the most important thing was twenty taels of silver in the bag, which was rewarded to her from above. This is Lancao's only silver, and the money that she will live on in the future is gone now.
Lancao got annoyed on the spot, and asked her family loudly who had turned over her box.
Gao's family has not been turned over, only Ma's is left in the family, so it goes without saying that it is Ma's.
Mrs. Ma refused to admit it at first, but later said that Danzi, Lancao's nephew, found it. He also said that my sister-in-law is a member of the family anyway, so why should the family share yours and mine.
Although Lancao looks weak, but she has a strong temper, she overturned the table in Gao's room on the spot, and got into a fight with her.
Xia's family was in a mess, Gao Shi was anxiously wiping away her tears, but she couldn't persuade her, so she could only ask the neighbor next door to help her find her man and son back.
Before Dad Xia and Xia Dazhu came back, Lancao snatched the money.
Mrs. Ma didn't give it, so she smashed the things in her house, only a few things, Mrs. Gao was so distressed that she threw the money to Lancao. After Xia Dazhu came back first, Gao cried and complained, saying that Lancao disrespected his elder sister-in-law, saying that she kept money privately and did not take it out. Not only did a girl hide her own house, but she also smashed things in her brother's and sister-in-law's room. All in all, she made a lot of arrangements.
Xia Dazhu married his daughter-in-law and forgot about his sister, so he gave Lancao a few words, and Lancao quarreled with him.
When Su Yucheng arrived, the Xia family was in full swing.
Many people outside the door were saying that the daughter-in-law of the Xia family was nothing, and that the sister-in-law was sold as a child. I don't know how much money she paid to her mother's family all these years. She finally came back, and she wanted to snatch some of her private house.
Talking about everything, Su Yucheng's leg injury was still not healed, so he limped and squeezed in.
Before he could stand still, there was a burst of exclamation, but it was Xia Dazhu who saw that he couldn't win the fight with his sister, and there were more and more people onlookers.
Su Yucheng hurried over and grabbed Xia Dazhu's hand.
"what you do!"
Lan Cao thought that she would be slapped, but who would have thought that an unexpected person would appear.
"How did you come?"
Before Su Yucheng could answer her, Xia Dazhu scolded, "Where did you come from, you cripple? You came to my house to play with me, are you looking for death?"
Xia Dazhu was not a good stubble, he was born with a big shoulder and a round waist, Kong Wu was powerful, he swung his fist while cursing in his mouth. Although Su Yucheng has difficulty moving now, it is true that he was trained in Wucheng Bingmasi before. He is really not afraid of this kind of silver-like wax spear head that relies on all his strength. He dodged the opponent's fist as if holding back, stretched out his good leg and tripped, and Xia Dazhu fell to the ground with a crash, but Su Yucheng was also sweating profusely from the pain.
"Master, are you okay?"
"Okay, you damn girl dare to ask your concubine to beat your brother, find a cripple as a concubine, you are really promising, I will beat you two to death today!"
Seeing Xia Dazhu struggling to get up from the ground, Lancao grabbed Su Yucheng and ran away.
Lancao ran very fast, and Su Yucheng followed her with a limp leg. They didn't stop until they were far away from the alley of Xia's house and ran a long way.
"Why are you here?" Lancao's expression was complicated.
Su Yucheng grinned: "His Royal Highness Jin Wang agreed to let me marry you."
what!
Lancao was stunned, and soon realized that there was something wrong with Su Yucheng's appearance. Thinking of the injury on his leg, she hurriedly said: "Let's not talk about this now, let's go to a medical clinic to see your wound."
After going to the medical hall, Su Yucheng's wound really opened and was bandaged again. The two of them sat in the medical hall for a while before leaving the door of the medical hall.
It was dusk at this time, and the two found a corner to stand.
"Your Highness has agreed to our marriage. Lancao, can you marry me?"
Lancao didn't speak.
Su Yucheng became a little anxious, "Before you said you were not good enough for me, I didn't think you were good enough for me. You said you were a girl in the palace, and now you are free, and the prince agreed. Do you have anything else? Difficulty?"
"I… "
"If you have any difficulties, just tell me, and I will definitely do it."
"I don't have any difficulties." Lancao said complicatedly, and then said: "I'm just afraid that you will regret it later."
"I won't regret it!" Su Yucheng said firmly.
Lancao sighed: "Then remember what you said today."
"You mean you agreed?"
She nodded, and Su Yucheng was as happy as a child.
Afterwards, the two discussed the specific matters in the middle. Su Yucheng didn't want Lancao to return to Xia's house, but Lancao insisted, and said that Xia Dazhu would not do anything to her, saying that he had been like this since he was a child, and she had never endured it. His hit.
Su Yucheng could only let her go back, and said that he would come to propose marriage soon. But regarding Su Yucheng's identity, Lancao discussed with him and concealed it, and did not mention the existence of Jin Palace.
In the blink of an eye, another month passed, and the Su family in Xiatangzi Hutong was very lively, dressed in red and colorful.
The Su family had no relatives in the capital, they only invited a few friends of Su Yucheng, a few friends of Father Su, and the Yao family.
Yaoniang also came back, and specially brought Xiaobao and Erbao back, saying that she specially asked His Highness and Wangfei.
Wu wiped away her tears happily, holding Er Bao in her arms and did not let go.
It's also weird, Er Bao is used to not being fond of being hugged by strangers, yet he let Wu Shi hug him. Wu said that Erbao looks like Su Xiucai, Wu's father, and Su Yucheng, and his nephew looks like an uncle. All in all, a little Erbao looks like a dozen people.
Fortunately, Xiaobao is now old enough to be able to walk around by himself, otherwise he would probably have to go through this kind of experience.
Taking advantage of the excitement outside, King Jin came in through the gate in a green shirt. Because there were many people coming in and out for the wedding today, no one stopped him. Yaoniang was instructing people to prepare to welcome the newcomer later, when she saw him coming, she hurriedly greeted him.
"How did you come?"
"I can't come?"
"It's not that you can't come, it's just that you said you can't come?" It was agreed before that Yao Niang came back with two children, a person as cold as King Jin, and used to be very majestic in front of the Su family, frightened What about the Su family
After all, in the hearts of the Su family, Jin Wang is a domineering prince and Yao Niang is an unfavored concubine. If he appeared, it would be all revealed. Hui Niang was very busy today, Mrs. Wu only cared about her relatives and grandchildren, Su Xiucai was busy greeting the guests, pointing at her and Yao Cheng inside and out, the couple were very busy.
When Hui Niang saw King Jin, she was terrified: "Your Highness!"
Yao Niang hurriedly said: "Since you are here, don't call your Highness. Sister, tell them, just say—" She glanced at King Jin before thinking of an excuse: "Just say that His Highness happened to pass by here, and came in to experience the customs Let them not say anything in front of people."
"Okay, okay, sister, go and talk to mother now, let your brother-in-law talk to dad."
King Jin was led to sit in the main room, where there were only Wu Shi, Er Bao, and a girl.
As soon as King Jin came, Er Bao stretched out his hand for his father to hug. Mrs. Wu was a little restrained, thinking about her daughter's confession that she couldn't be called a prince, so she said, "Brother, sit down, and my aunt will make you some tea."
small theater:
Wu Shi: Brother, is the tea good
King Jin: Delicious.
Wu Shi: Just drink it well, big brother, you can be nicer to my daughter.
Yaoniang: Mother, what is your name, big brother
Wu Shi: Then what is your mother-in-law's name? Little brother, junior, little brother? He is not young at first glance, older than your brother!
King Jin who is not young: O__O "…
Big Brother, Note: An older woman's affectionate term for a man younger than herself, which appears in spoken language. To show respect and closeness to people.
