The sky was full of stars, and spots of light fell through the osmanthus tree. There was a small couch beside the tree, and Li Shu happened to be lying here, looking up at the sky, enjoying the silence alone.
After a while, when she saw Zhulan bringing tea, she sat up, took the tea cup and took a sip, and then asked, "Is Brother Miao's daughter-in-law going into labor in the past few days?"
Zhulan nodded: "Yes, Wen Po and wet nurse have sent it over, so don't worry."
"Well, that's good, that's good. I saw that she was pregnant well and will definitely give birth to a healthy baby, so I feel relieved." Li Shu held her head, thinking that with her grandfather's methods, the Zhu family would probably be in trouble. He was about to be unlucky, so it would be nice not to affect Zhu Lingxuan.
Zhulan said with concern: "Master, you have been cooling here for more than an hour. The uncle will be back soon. If he can't see you, he will be anxious."
People around Lishu actually have a feeling that the eldest grandma is actually getting younger and younger. When she was still very young, she worked hard to study and be a housekeeper, had no affection for her children, was decisive in killing, and did not treat men too much. Shy, it seems that being in charge of the Zheng family is her only career.
But now, she has changed and has become a bit childish.
Zhulan saw it especially clearly. In fact, the eldest grandma had a complicated family in the past and had no time to think about anything else. Every day she was either fighting cocks with her sisters or having many difficulties waiting for her to overcome. Only when she was truly free and free could she truly be herself. .
The real third girl of the Liu family is actually a passionate, sensitive little girl who longs for love.
"Okay, I'll go back now." Lishu still likes to lie here alone, not thinking about anything, it's really comfortable to be quiet.
Just as he stood up, he saw Zheng Hao coming over. He was dressed in a light-colored green shirt with only a jade hairpin of the same color on his head. He looked elegant and elegant, not as majestic as in court clothes in the past, but he fit Li Shu's heart very well. .
"Why are you here?" Li Shu smiled.
Zheng Hao came over and took her hand, saying softly: "Of course I came here because I wanted to see you quickly."
Such love words made the maids around him feel warm and their hearts beat fast, not to mention Lishu, the client. When she looked at him through the stars in the sky, she could still see his reputation as "Mei Zheng Lang".
She blushed a little, but no one could see it in the dark night.
Only when he returned to his room did the residual heat on his face dissipate. Zheng Hao saw that his wife was a little squirmy, not at all as generous and straightforward as before. He didn't know what he was thinking and couldn't help but laugh.
During the day, Mrs. Luan came to inform someone that she was pregnant and could not come, so Li Shu sent someone to deliver supplements. I went to see Zhu Lingxuan again. Zhu Lingxuan was being helped by someone to walk around in the yard.
Her belly was already very big, but she was not in a bad mood. Although the Liu family and her grandmother had a big quarrel, her father succeeded in taking the post in the end. He must have reached an agreement with the Liu family, so that was good.
She and Lishu have a very good relationship, and they are now a family. It would be a pity if the same situation happened to the next generation because of the quarrel between the two parents.
"Auntie, I'm fine today, don't worry."
"Even so, you have to be careful. This is your first baby, so you can't be careless."
Li Shu also separated public and private affairs. She didn't like Mrs. Zhu, but she had a deep hatred for Zhu Lingxuanmei, and Zheng Miao was indeed a talent. Although he was young,
, but he is outstanding in talent, learning and conduct, and he is a person that Zheng Hao values very much. As a wife of the clan, Li Shu could not act on her own initiative.
Zhu Lingxuan was still very scared after her first child, but a woman is weak as a daughter and strong as a mother. She suddenly became stronger and replied to Li Shu: "Don't worry."
Li Shu nodded and listened to Zhu Lingxuan talk about her aunt: "My aunt was originally born in the clouds. She gave birth to five sons. She couldn't even give birth to a daughter. But now she has lost her title. , life is not as good as before, and people are a lot more bitter."
Li Shu disagreed with this. Zhu Lingxuan's aunt Zhu was the fourth wife of Marquis Wuyang, and the marriage was only possible because of the reputation of the Liu family in Jinghu.
Zhu's ability to stand firmly depends on her husband. He loves her and is in a high position, so he naturally looks down on everyone. Now that Marquis Wuyang has passed away and her sons have not yet grown up, her status will naturally decline. It is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but difficult to go from luxury to frugality!
From Zhu's incident, Li Shu also wanted to remind herself that she was also a husband and a wife, but if Zheng Hao's life span was really only forty-four, she would have been in her thirties at that time, and her son would not have grown up yet. If you succeed, where should you go?
It has to be said that although Li Shu has a childlike mentality, she becomes more realistic than anyone else when she really calms down.
Soon it was Li Zhen's third baptism. This time Li Zhen gave birth to a son, and the sisters all went to Guangyang Marquis Mansion to celebrate. Liwan came here with her children, and was surprised to see Lishu: "Why didn't you bring your little brother here with you?"
Li Shu smiled and said, "The older one went to the academy and there is no holiday. The younger one is in the palace. I am the only one here."
"You are really lucky." Liwan flashed a hint of jealousy.
Lishu thought to herself that I couldn’t see the hardships I had to go through in raising my two sons. Moreover, my son was only three years old and he was always busy and tired. He never missed school. Lishu would still read with her when he came home every day. This was not the case for every mother’s family. It can be done.
But she would not preach suffering. She just said: "When these two hozens were by my side, I only despised them for being naughty. Now that they are no longer by my side, they are still empty."
Liwan's eyes rolled and she came up with a solution: "Why don't you let Sister Xian accompany you? She is closer to your third aunt than to my own mother."
The abacus beads were playing really loudly. Li Shu thought to herself that if they were really sisters, that would be fine. It was obvious that they were just at odds with each other, so Li Wan really thought she was stupid.
Except for one's own children, who would like other people's children? She doesn't have that much love.
So, Li Shu laughed and didn't answer. Li Wan always had a good eye, so of course she wouldn't say much.
After a while, the sixth sister had arrived. Li Shu really didn't have much contact with her. She only knew that the sixth sister was married to a certain prince's house and had frequent contacts with Li Zhen. There was a big age difference between the two, but they had nothing to say.
However, Li Rou did not come to such an occasion today, and Li Wan sighed: "She had a relationship with Li Zhen as a speculative relationship when she was young, and she happened to be ill today."
With the help of Zheng Hao, Wu Xuanhe received a supplementary education in Shuntian Mansion experience. His official position was not very high. After all, Wu Xuanhe was neither a Jinshi nor a scholar, but a supervisor. In the past, he had the support of his father, and he held positions such as Tongpan County Magistrate. Now in Beijing, he has to do his job effectively without being dismissive. His experience in Shuntian Prefecture is quite suitable.
"It's not a big deal if you don't come. There will always be time to meet." Li Shu knew a little bit about it. Li Zhen originally disliked her, but later turned against Li Rou, which was very pitiable.
Perhaps it was because of the man that Lirou was right not to come. ()
Her guess was correct. Li Zhen breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that Li Rou didn't come. Although she is not very old, only in her twenties, because she gave birth to three children in succession, she cannot compare with those young girls. Her appearance has lost its appearance, but Lirou is still so beautiful and refined, and her waist is still so thin. Thinking about it made her very jealous.
17 The author Chun Weilu reminds you that "The Daughter of a Noble Family" will be updated as soon as possible. Remember [(()
But so what?
The Marquis of Guangyang could only be her, and Lirou was just a wife with little experience now.
While she was deep in thought, Li Shu and Liu Niang came to visit her. Li Zhen saw that Liu Niang was very close to her. Liu Niang was her concubine and had always been a good-natured person. She never disobeyed her and listened to her words. The two sisters also Marrying into a noble family at the same time is naturally even better.
But when she saw Li Shu, she was always so unhappy.
In fact, Li Shu had long felt that Li Zhen's attitude towards her was strange and very restrained. On the one hand, she disliked her from the bottom of her heart, but on the other hand, she was afraid of offending her. This was definitely not because she was Zheng Hao's wife.
Although the Minister of Civil Affairs has a high official position, he is definitely not to the extent that Madam Hou is afraid of him.
Therefore, Li Shu also took the opportunity to inquire.
"The fifth sister and the Crown Princess have a very good relationship, and just now they said there was a reward from the East Palace." Li Shu mentioned casually.
Li Zhen said very proudly: "I didn't expect that such a child could go up to heaven to listen. I'm really embarrassed."
Li Shu sighed slightly: "It would be great if Seventh Sister could have an heir as soon as possible, but I haven't been to the East Palace much recently. I wonder how Seventh Sister is doing?"
"It's nothing like that. Pregnancy depends on whether there is a chance. For example, the sixth sister got pregnant just after entering the house." Li Zhen looked down on Qiniang and let nature take its course.
Liu Niang slept happily and didn't say much, just listening to the two sisters chatting.
Li Shu smiled and said: "That's all, there will no longer be women's polo games in the East Palace this year. I breathed a sigh of relief when I entered the palace, but I was afraid that what happened last year would be bad."
Li Zhen also quickly remembered this matter, and she said casually: "I heard that the East Palace gave a lot of rewards last year, and it was also to reward Third Sister for saving the emperor's eldest grandson."
"Yes, I don't know if it's because of this that our brother Shu was later chosen to be his companion. His father and I even went to see the saint and met the crown prince and crown princess." Li Shu said casually.
Did you meet the prince? Li Zhen looked at Li Shu slightly. She and Li Shu had always had a normal relationship, and they would quarrel at every turn. But she was also most afraid that the prince would do something that was against human ethics. Although she didn't like Lishu, she had to admit against her will that Lishu had the ability to be a fox. And now that the prince is under the emperor's nose, he should be more self-disciplined. If he makes peace with the wife of a minister, the prince's position will be unstable.
Because of this, replacing Liu Niang with Qiniang was a way to comfort the prince. But that day when the third sister rescued the emperor's eldest grandson, she was observing the prince from the side. The prince seemed to be very unusual with the third sister.
Now that the two of them actually met again, Li Zhen's pupils opened slightly, so she wanted to hit Li Shu and warn her not to seduce the prince: "The prince is the future king, and he will have a powerful position in the future. Being able to see my sister shows that he is interested in Brother Shu." However, I heard that the emperor’s eldest grandson’s companion could be the son of a princess, the son of a duke, or even the grandson of the prime minister, but I didn’t expect to choose Brother Shu. It attracts so much attention, and I’m afraid that others will gossip.”
gossip? Li Shu originally just asked casually, but now she really found out the clues. The person Li Zhen was in awe of could not be Zheng Hao. He must be a person with a higher status than Cen Shifang. This person made her afraid.
It was Liu Niang who was originally chosen to enter the palace, but the prince fell in love with Qiniang, who was also very similar to her.
Li Shu vaguely understood something and was immediately frightened. !
