Brother Rong said with a smile: "My wife didn't know what was going on, so she actually arranged for the eldest brother to come to my wife's yard. Rong'er was only afraid that the child would disturb my wife's purity."
Youshi sneered and said: "How old are you, and you are still lying to my face? We are not insisting on stopping you from seeing the child, but the family has always had rules, and the brothers in the house have been strictly controlled from generation to generation. Don't mention the past when you were young. , I also disciplined you harshly. In the previous generations, whether it was Master Zhen, Master Jing, or even your great Master Fu who died young, they all came here like this when they were young. You can ask the old people in the house to find out what happened back then. How does Mr. Jing take care of me? How come you are breaking the rules passed down by our ancestors?"
Brother Rong scratched his head and said happily: "Rong'er doesn't want to spoil this brother. Besides, how can a brother who is only three or four months know anything? It's just that he is away from the house during the day and is thinking about the child."
Youshi held the child in her arms and turned to one side and said, "I'm afraid you're used to beating your little pet. When my brother gets a few years older, it will be difficult to control him strictly."
What kind of truth is this?
Brother Rong whispered: "My wife and daughter-in-law are worried too much."
"It's always good to be just in case." Youshi said without leaving any room for error: "In the house, men are always in charge of the outside and women are in charge. Your wife is the head of the house, and it is also the responsibility of the head of the house to educate the children and grandchildren. You If you really want your eldest brother to move back to the compound, go and ask your wife for the password first."
But Qing was on guard against him. How could Brother Rong go to seek such trouble? If we really want to beg for mercy, we have to do it tonight, when Keqing has been begging for mercy again and again.
Jia Rong retreated and said, "Madam, you see that Rong'er looks like a busy man. He works as an official outside during the day. He hasn't seen his eldest brother for a few days. Rong'er has seen his eldest brother for a while today, and he will definitely not disturb him every day in the future." .”
Youshi glanced at Brother Rong with suspicion. Rong'er has grown up, and is not the child she was when she first entered Ningguo Mansion. This child used to be quite well-behaved. At that age, she often took Rong'er and Feng Yatou to play in Huifang Garden. In the blink of an eye, Ronger became a father. even……
When she thought that Jia Rong was getting involved with Feng Yatou again, she felt helpless in her heart.
Youshi glanced at the eldest brother's nanny and asked Wan'er to take the nanny back to the wing in the courtyard. She hummed: "The eldest brother is the eldest son of Ningguo Mansion. A lot of effort needs to be put into his upbringing. After reading it today, don't look for him all the time. If you want to enjoy your family, you can go to Xifu to look for Feng Lazi's child. Don't worry about it. The eldest son of Ningguo Mansion is spoiled."
"Cough..." Jia Rong suddenly lost his breath and coughed several times. It turns out that You knew everything... He scratched his head and said, "If you always go to Xifu to see that brother, the wife of Xifu will have to roll the whites of her eyes to the ground."
Youshi rolled her eyes and said angrily: "Take my eldest brother over here."
This precious guy is the great-great-grandson of Ningguo Mansion. Not only did Keqing and Youshi pay close attention to him, but even the people in Xifu took him seriously. Who allowed Ningguo Mansion to be passed down for several generations starting from Jia Jing? Now that he has been added to the family, everyone cherishes him. As a result, Jia Rong, a father, did not have the opportunity to hold the child.
After hearing Youshi's promise, Brother Rong was overjoyed and hurriedly came forward while rubbing his hands together. He also forgot about the taboos and reached out his hand to dig into Youshi's arms.
He was so careless and didn't care what he touched. Seeing the little guy in her arms, Jia Rong threw everything away.
However, he didn't notice that Youshi's ears beside him were inexplicably red and she was staring at him angrily.
The little Que'er who was following behind also had a strange look on his face, and secretly glared at Uncle Rong, seeing him having fun holding his child there. It was obviously unintentional, so Xiao Queer calmed down.
"What a cute little guy, white and tender." Jia Rong looked at the baby in the bad room. The little guy seemed to be sleeping but not asleep. He opened his eyes from time to time and was not noisy. Occasionally, he would put aside his toothless little mouth and yawn, or laugh silently twice, but Brother Rong actually hugged her and didn't want to let go.
He murmured to himself: "This little guy's eyebrows and eyes look like mine, but his mouth and nose look like Keqing's. He will definitely be a handsome guy when he grows up. Gee, I don't know how many ladies he will charm in the future."
Youshi's mood became even more complicated as she listened to Brother Rong's thoughts. Said: "You are in your early twenties and you are not behaving well. You actually say such things to your children."
"Uh..." Jia Rong scanned the room with his palms and saw that Youshi, Yindie and Chaodouer were there. Yin Die was snickering, and Fried Dou'er was suppressing a smile.
Little Que'er is used to the old man suddenly saying strange things.
"As long as this boy has half the charm of me as a father." Jia Rong laughed shamelessly and couldn't help but raise his index finger to tease the little brother's tender face.
"Stop touching." Youshi came over quickly and snatched the eldest brother from Brother Rong's hand.
"Madam?" Jia Rong looked at Youshi protecting her eldest brother in her arms, and said helplessly: "I just touched his face, so it shouldn't be like this."
"Just watch and don't move your hands or feet."
Youshi hummed and sat down with her eldest brother in her arms.
Brother Rong had no choice but to come closer and look at the little guy in Youshi's arms.
"He moved, moved." Brother Rong said excitedly.
"Keep your voice down." Youshi replied.
Yindie in the room looked at the two people who had lowered their heads and gathered together. Many things came to mind, and a strange look appeared on his face. I remember that when she was first assigned to Grandma You, she was still a few years old maid. Uncle Rong was not very old at that time, and he often stayed close to grandma.
At that time, Second Mistress Lian was still Sister Feng who had not yet left the court. Grandma was always in tit-for-tat with Sister Feng because Sister Feng always led Uncle Rong around the two houses. Grandma's mouth is not as sharp as Sister Feng's, and she can never win every argument. As a result, grandma would hear rumors every afternoon that Sister Feng and Uncle Rong had gotten into some trouble, or that they had beaten up some relative in Ningrong's backstreet.
By the time she became a maid by Grandma You's side, Grandma You had fallen out of favor in the house, and Uncle Rong had grown up to avoid kissing Grandma.
There, Youshi chuckled and hummed: "Don't touch his face."
"Oh..." Uncle Rong replied.
Yindie seemed to have returned to the time more than ten years ago. She hadn't seen her grandma smile like this for a long time. She sent Fried Dou'er to fetch water and watched the excitement there without disturbing this strange and warm scene.
Wait for the fried beans to come back with water. Yindie suggested: "Master, please clean your hands first."
The two people who were laughing were stunned for a moment. Jia Rong reacted and said with a smile: "I forgot about it."
Brother Rong washed his hands after holding the fried beans and wanted to go over again. However, Youshi's eyebrows narrowed and she called out, "Rong'er, please go back today."
How could Jia Rong be willing to leave? Such a cute little guy, I want to take another look at it.
Youshi lowered her eyebrows and thought for a moment, then said: "As long as Rong'er doesn't hold the child in her arms and doesn't want to let go, it's okay to come and see her after a while. If Brother Rong obeys the rules, I'll talk to your wife about it some time later." The nanny can take my eldest brother back to the courtyard."
Jia Rong reluctantly left.
Youshi looked at his back, stunned for a moment, and sighed. I called Chaodou'er and called the eldest brother's nanny back. It was time to take the eldest brother away and go back to rest.
People are most afraid of suddenly experiencing a joy that they have never experienced before in a life that has been dull for many years; they are even more afraid that an accident will suddenly happen in a life that has been going on for many years.
In the East Mansion, Ms. You fell asleep with complicated thoughts; in the West Mansion, Ms. Li was lying on the bed tossing and turning.
Since what happened when Jia Rong was drunk that day, some changes have taken place in the life of Li Wan, the grandma of Zhuda. First, I bumped into Brother Rong and Miss Bao having sex outside Conglutang. That night, the upper edge of a certain volume in "The Biography of Women" got wet; then outside Tianxiang Tower, I was interviewing Brother Rong in Huifang Garden. He put on the cloak with his own hands, and that night, the marks on the upper edge of the "Biography of Women" became deeper.
There is another thing that bothers Li Wan.
A thing that cannot be mentioned to anyone, something more serious than being shaken by a drunk Brother Rong.
Grandma Zhu is sick. Li Wan knew that she was sick, a disease that outsiders would never believe.
If a woman occasionally has a dream of rejuvenation, it is a normal phenomenon. But it is absolutely abnormal for a woman to think about dreams every night.
She knew something was wrong with her.
Every time she returned to the room and came to the bedside, she could not help but think of a certain feeling. There is a longing in my heart, a longing that is unspeakable. In other words, she has developed a certain habit. No matter how much mental preparation she makes before going to bed, once she lies down, the desire in her heart becomes extremely strong.
I can't help but miss and miss you.
I couldn't help but pick out another volume of "Biography of Women", and couldn't help but...
It was like there was a demon living inside her, a demon that could affect her nerves, thoughts, and even the movements of her hands and feet. Always controlling her behavior after returning to the room and controlling her thoughts after lying on the bed.
She tried several times, forcing herself not to think about it or reflect on it.
It’s useless, I’ll still dream about it after I fall asleep.
What made her collapse even more was that the appearance of the person in the dream changed from Jia Zhu to Jia Rong. Li Wan felt that he was going crazy, really going crazy. She is a queen from a famous family, a true lady of the world. How could you have such a dream?
The guilt in my heart keeps accumulating and getting heavier, to the point where it affects my daily life.
"Don't come again." Li Wan said.
"Let's go, let's go quickly." Li Wan was talking to himself.
That night, the maid Suyun in Grandma Zhu's room was surprised to find that Grandma was talking in her sleep.
On the same night, Jia Rong was seriously counting the stretch marks on Ke Qing's body.
"One, two, three, four...two, two, three, four...three, two..."
"How can there be so many?" Qin Keqing said angrily.
"There are four left, right? Then I have to count all night today."
"..."
Ah a scream.
Li Wan woke up from his dream.
Suyun heard the sound and quickly climbed up and came over holding a lamp. Grandma Zhu's face was covered with sweat, and she looked like she had been fished out of the water. The quilts were rolled together and there were signs of moisture. There was a half-rolled book covered under the quilt, and the pages were wet.
"Did grandma suffer from a nightmare?" Suyun asked with concern.
Grandma Zhu was in shock at this time. She sat down and could only listen to the fierce beating of her heart in her chest. Only when Su Yun helped her up did Li Wan react and murmured: "It's nothing, I just had a nightmare."
"Grandma's clothes are also wet. I'm going to find some clean pajamas for grandma." Su Yun said.
Li Wan nodded blankly, her mind still stuck in the dream just now.
how so?
She looked down and hurriedly threw the "Biography of Women" on the bed onto the table next to her. His chest was also soaked, and his insides were looming. I couldn't help but sigh, when will such days end?
Suyun hurriedly found some clothes and took a sweat towel. Li Wan changed out of his pajamas and was served by Su Yun, who dried himself and then changed into clean pajamas.
The sheets and bedding are all wet and cannot be used tonight.
Su Yun waited for Li Wan to drink water and calmed down her shock. I had no choice but to ask Grandma Zhu to change to the bed next to her and find a new bedding.
Li Wan sat on the collapse, but the scene from his dream was still flashing in his mind.
People sometimes want to forget certain things, but that thing will be deeply imprinted in their minds. What's more, he can even break into dreams without any reason and domineeringly.
Suyun took the pajamas she changed and left, but accidentally touched a wet stain on her pajamas and pants that was a bit sticky. Looking back at grandma who was still in a daze, she quickly put away her clothes.
"Palace Judge? Why do you betray me so much?"
These words echoed in Li Wan's mind, recalling Jia Zhu's ferocious expression in the dream just now. Her heart was in a mess, as if her heart had been twisted half a circle by an invisible hand. It was messy and painful.
Nightmare, disturbing nightmare.
However, it is more like a bizarre erotic dream.
"I thought that was the uncle, I really thought it was the uncle." Li Wan said to himself, "He was obviously the uncle, but why did he suddenly become Brother Rong."
"Why am I even happier now that I have become Brother Rong?" Li Wan burst into tears as he thought about the dream just now. Shame, unspeakable shame. How happy the previous dream is, how terrifying the subsequent dream is.
She clearly remembered that when she was happiest, Jia Zhu broke in, or to be precise, floated in.
A pair of blood-red eyes stared directly at him and Brother Rong, silently and without saying a word while they were busy. Just when she was about to scream out in joy, Jia Zhu stretched her head over with blood-red eyes.
Without warning, she was startled.
At the last moment when I woke up from the dream, I still vaguely heard that voice: "Why are you betraying me so much?"
Whether there was or not, she couldn't remember. Perhaps it was the guilt this bizarre dream brought to her that led to the newly born hallucination.
But all this is no longer important.
In her heart, as a widow and a chaste woman, she would have such a despicable dream. I have lost my integrity and I am sorry for Jia Zhu.
Li Wan wiped away her tears and bit her lower lip hard, as if only pain could wake her up.
Grandma Zhu didn't sleep all night after she woke up, because she was afraid that she would lose her integrity again in her dream. I hold the "Four Books on Women", but I can't read even a single word.
Night is the hardest.
Finally, in the early morning, the maids came into the room to wait on him.
Wash and dress up.
Li Wan, however, stared blankly at his twenty-year-old face in the mirror. After a while, Jia Lan came in to say hello. After asking about volunteer studies, she felt even more complicated when she heard what Jia Lan said.
Are you going to find Brother Rong again?
Li Wan was really afraid of seeing him.
