"Tingxuan, mother doesn't understand. That woman has been married to you for three years. She is extravagant, jealous and vicious. If you used to look at Ping Guogong's face, you would tolerate her for a minute and a half. But now , The Pingguo Mansion has already collapsed, and you have spent tens of thousands of taels of silver in order to save the lives of that big family. This... this is the end of benevolence, right? Why do you keep that woman in the mansion? Look What kind of embarrassing things did she do today?"

Coming out of the old lady's yard, Mrs. Hou took her son to her room, and persuaded him earnestly, "Your father loves your second younger brother the most, but their mother and child are not easy to get along with. Fortunately, you are capable and have the favor of the emperor and queen, otherwise, mother is afraid that you will lose your seat in this world. If you let that woman make trouble a few more times, your father will be bored, mother is afraid that your future will be ruined. There is an accident. My son, listen to your mother and simply divorce her. You really did well enough for her. "

"Mother, things are not as simple as you think." Duan Tingxuan peeled an orange and chewed it in his mouth, and said casually: "Pingguo's mansion is also unlucky, in fact, Pingguo is not responsible for that matter, The water is deep here, and the son helped them take care of it, but he just couldn't bear to let them suffer for others, not for the sake of warmth. As for her, it's not that the son dared not divorce her, but you also see Now, she dares to make trouble in the kitchen today. Once I divorce her, she dares to degenerate outside regardless of her reputation. At that time, if another man cuckolds me, do you want your son to kill her? Killing them? It's not worthwhile to sue for such a woman's life. It's better to put her under house arrest in Meiyuelou. She makes trouble as she likes, as long as she doesn't enter the backyard, let her go. If she enters the backyard, then I will naturally clean her up , I know that Niang likes Ran Yun's shrewdness and Zhilan's gentleness more than her domineering, but right now, it's not the time to talk about divorcing his wife or getting someone right."

Mrs. Yang is a typical example of virtuous and virtuous women in ancient times. When she heard her son say that, she gave up. Here Duan Tingxuan came out of the upper room, looked at the sunset in the sky, suddenly sneered, and murmured: "Make trouble, let's see what tricks you can come up with, Su Mengnuan, you'd better know how to behave, don't make trouble Master couldn't bear it anymore, and sent you on the road with his own hands, thinking that I don't know how He Xiang and the child in her womb disappeared back then?"

The sky is a lesson, when the young master Duan Tingxuan was talking to himself, he really never dreamed that: Su Nuannuan really knows how to measure, and has disappeared since then, and he didn't feel unbearable at all. Chance.

"Grandma, the leeks have been harvested. I just cut a row of land. Look, it weighs three to four catties."

Xiangyun carried a basket, shouted happily and ran into the kitchen, and sent the basket to Su Nuannuan who was making fat in the pot.

"Well, you and Hong Lian picked up the leeks, washed them, and then we started making vegetable dumplings. You don't know, this fresh leeks are mixed with meat residue, put some oil in the pan, and the vegetable dumplings made are the best. Delicious."

Su Nuannuan used a large spatula to turn the golden-yellow pork belly slag in the pot, took a deep breath of the pure meat fragrance, and showed a happy smile on her face.

"Grandma take a break, let me come." Hong Lian came in from the door, holding two apples in her hand: "This is the apple I took in the kitchen last time, and there are only two left. Yesterday I When I went to get the meat, I didn’t see any fruit, so grandma ate it first, and maybe I’ll see fruit in two days.”

"Stupid girl, they hid it on purpose, it's just that things like meat and eggs can't be hidden." Su Nuannuan sneered, and then said: "The most difficult period of time is finally over. After that, You don't have to worry about it anymore, there is nothing in this backyard except rice noodles and seasoning? Yes, let's see when we go to the pigsty to catch two pigs and raise them ourselves, that's all. Now the fruit problem is easy to solve, I Seeing that the cherry trees in the backyard are already half red, wait until the red cherries are harvested, boil a pot of sweet cherry soup, and drink a bowl after eating chives and zygotes. It is sour, sweet and greasy. It is the most comfortable."

"Yes, grandma said yes, it must be very good." Honglian smiled and agreed, and then glanced at Su Nuannuan's flushed face illuminated by the fire, there were two drops of sweat on the tip of her nose that were about to fall, She couldn't help but sighed in her heart, thinking that grandma might not be the grandma she used to be? She is much better than the arrogant and domineering master in the past. Even so, she is happy to pretend to be confused. Who wouldn't want to live a life where there is no beating or scolding but only good food.

"Master, there is Meiyue Tower over there. Why don't we go back? Didn't Grandma Yun say that she made dumplings stuffed with chives that you like to eat tonight?"

"No matter how delicious something is, if you eat it all the time, you will get tired of it." Duan Tingxuan sighed, shook his head and said, "Maybe I don't know how to be blessed, but now that I think about it, I feel that I ate it when I went to the countryside last time." The rough tea and light rice have a special taste, and the duck soup and leek dumplings can't help but eat it once every two or three days."

Siping chuckled: "Since I don't want to eat, how about going to the old lady's for a meal? I heard that there is lamb meat today."

"What about the lamb? I had dinner in the East Palace at noon today, and it was the steamed lamb cooked by the imperial chef. That's all it is." Duan Tingxuan sneered, thought for a while and said, "Fortunately, I am not delicious. Man, otherwise, just thinking about all these delicacies makes me tired of thinking about it. By the way, has that woman been silent since the last time she made a fuss in the kitchen? Why haven't people in the house talked about her again?"

Siping said with a smile: "I didn't hear anyone say it, maybe grandma got the food, so she didn't make trouble anymore. Speaking of it, she came from everyone anyway, so she should know how to behave."

Duan Tingxuan sneered and said, "Property? The things she did in the past are few and far between? How many times in a month can I have a fight? If it wasn't so troublesome that I couldn't bear it, I would just go to her father who took the blame for others. , it is impossible for me to get her to Meiyue Tower."

When he said this, he patted the folding fan in the palm of his hand, pondered for a while and said: "Forget it, since we have come here, let's go to Meiyue Tower to have a look. Don't all three people die in it? What if?" That's really the case, anyway, we should collect their corpses, and it's not in vain for the husband and wife."

Siping thought oh my god, do you still know that you are husband and wife? Look at how cruel this is. On the surface, he promised dubiously, and followed Duan Tingxuan to Meiyue Tower.
