seven years later
Mrs. Li hurriedly walked out with Ziyuan and several maids and women, mumbling: "How many times have I told you that Yutong and Mancang finally came back? I won't go anywhere during this time, but that sentence Madam, I was afraid to send you a greeting card, but a flower-viewing party at Laoshizi is worth the hassle."
Today, Mrs. Li is no longer as miserable as she was back then, and her carefully painted features are full of impatience.
Jin Qing is now a second-grade general in the northern expedition, with more than one million generals under his command.
Under Jin Qing's efforts, the territory of the dynasty was also constantly expanding outwards.
For others, the mother is valued based on the child, and the wife is valued based on the husband. However, Li's mother was valued based on the daughter, and she got the title of royal wife.
Jin Qing fully made up for the honor that Zhao Shi did not give her.
Now even if you go to the Queen Mother's Palace, you can still find a chair to sit on in a serious manner.
Thanks to Jin Qing, Mrs. Li has gone from being the object of ridicule and sympathy by everyone in the capital to becoming the mistress of a newly wealthy family.
While listening to Li's words, Ziyuan responded with a smile: "Isn't this the third master who hasn't decided yet? Everyone is thinking about you!"
After Zhao Ziming and Zhao Ziru were driven away by the Li family, Zhao Zijing was raised by the Li family.
Although Zhao Zijing has no interest in reading, he has excellent vision.
Over the years, he purchased many shops in the capital and even opened a chain of teahouses, restaurants and inns, and his life was very comfortable.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Jin Qing will definitely be made a marquis in the future based on his achievements.
Jin Qing is a woman who gave birth to a daughter before she was married.
If you want to become a noble, you will definitely adopt a son in the future.
As for who will be adopted at that time, everyone has their own plans in mind.
As a result, Zhao Zijing's marriage became very popular.
Although the legitimate daughters of high-ranking families would not care about the Zhao family's wealth, there are still concubines in high-ranking families.
Jin Qing's career was still booming, and the matrons of some third- and fourth-rank officials were also tempted.
The Zhao family has a simple population and has completely cut off contact with them. Li is also a good-tempered person, so it is not impossible for her to marry her legitimate daughter.
Thinking of Zhao Zijing's marriage, Li was really a little depressed: "What do you think he wants to find?"
This is not enough, and she is dragged around by those ladies. Every month is a flower viewing party. She has to memorize this unmarried young lady in the capital, okay?
Zi Yuan chuckled softly and said: "Okay, there are so many beautiful little girls. Just looking at them makes you feel happy. You can just take it as a relief. The third master has his own plans."
Li made a sound and was carefully put into the carriage by Ziyuan.
After all, she was a measured person. After leaving the inner house, Mrs. Li didn't say anything to complain, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble if the news spread.
The flower viewing party is going to go after all. Her daughter doesn't like these visits to the back house, so she naturally has to take more care of her daughter.
Knowing that there was still some distance to go, Mrs. Li told Ziyuan: "Yutong likes Jumanlou's roasted pig, and Mancang likes Wangji's roast duck. Don't forget to ask them to send some back when you pass by."
Hearing Ziyuan smile in response, Li closed her eyes and fell asleep, preparing to gather her energy to deal with the ladies at the flower viewing party.
The corners of Li's mouth curved slightly, she was tired, but very happy.
In the back house
A young girl with delicate appearance but heroic eyes was sitting cross-legged on the stone table, telling a story about the frontier to a pair of twins.
The twins, who were about four years old, were listening attentively to the little girl's description, exclaiming from time to time: "Sister is so amazing."
The little girl was so coaxed by the two boys, her face was filled with ecstasy.
She was so happy that the little girl shouted to a stern young man behind her: "Zhao Buliang, bring me my two swords to open the eyes of the little ones."
The young man known as Zhao Buliang quietly rolled his eyes, reached out and pulled out the two double knives on his back and threw them at the little girl.
Hearing a loud shout, the little girl jumped up in the air to catch the two swords, and then chopped them directly towards the big tree beside her.
With a crunching sound, the big tree fell to the ground. The little girl stood on the spot with two swords in her hands, and said to her two younger siblings without looking back: "You saw it, this is how I chopped off that barbarian's head." of."
When the two little ones heard this, they jumped up and clapped their hands: "Big sister is great, big sister is great."
At this moment, a gentle female voice came: "Xiujie, Yiyi, why are you pestering eldest sister again? Have you finished your homework for today?"
Hearing the gentle female voice, the two children immediately rushed towards the visitor and called out affectionately: "Mother!"
Zhao Buliang hurriedly stepped forward and saluted: "I have met Mrs. Qi."
The little girl who originally had her back turned to everyone quickly turned around, dropped the two swords in her hands and saluted the visitor: "Little aunt."
The woman was about twenty-four or five years old. Her belly was slightly protruding and her face was plump. Even though she was pregnant, she was still bright and attractive.
This person is none other than Zhao Yuyun.
Not long after Jin Qing took the child away, Zhao Yuyun went out for a trip.
She originally thought that she would die alone, but she didn't expect that she would meet the right person during the journey.
The man's name was Qi Wenyu. He had a gentle personality. He had been studying since he was a child. He was knowledgeable and well-spoken. He was the eldest son of the Qi family of the emperor Shang.
According to Jin Qing's understanding, the family has plenty of money.
When the two first met, Qi Wenyu had just turned twenty and his wife was newly deceased, so he wanted to go out and enjoy the mountains and rivers with his friends.
Unexpectedly, she happened to run into Zhao Yuyun, who was disguised as a woman.
Perhaps it was fate. After meeting by chance several times in different places, the two simply sat down and started chatting.
But I didn't expect that after this conversation, we actually resonated with each other.
So the two people who cherished each other began to walk together, and then got closer and closer, and actually began to heal and redeem each other.
After the two fell in love, Zhao Yuyun simply told what happened to her.
Unexpectedly, Qi Wenyu not only did not dislike her, but also felt very sorry for her.
The widower of an imperial merchant was worthy of an unfaithful young lady, so no one needed to dislike anyone.
After confirming their feelings for each other, Zhao Yuyun and Qi Wenyu returned home one after another, and it didn't take long for them to finalize their marriage.
One year after entering the family, Zhao Yuyun gave birth to a pair of auspicious twins, a dragon and a phoenix, for Qi Wenyu, and they were even held high in the sky by the Qi family.
Qi Wenyu even settled his family in the capital for her.
Moreover, Qi Wenyu felt sorry for her and couldn't bear the damage to her body due to frequent childbirth.
Therefore, she was not allowed to have another child until the twins were four years old.
Although merchants are at the bottom of the list among farmers, industry and commerce, the benefits they receive are real.
Just looking at Zhao Yuyun's outfit, it can be seen that she has lived a good life these years.
With Qi Wenyu's careful care, Zhao Yuyun has completely forgotten the glory and misery of the past.
Except for the child in front of her who she didn't like.
At this time, Zhao Yuyun frowned and looked at the little girl: "Mancang, Xiujie and Yiyi are still young. Compared to you, who grew up on the battlefield and cannot hear these bloody things. Don't talk about it again in the future. It will scare them." of."
