Chapter 696 Yearning Up

You mean, you want to let Xu Lingyi take a look at Eleven Niang.

Luo Zhenxing nodded.

Xu Lingyi felt that Luo Zhenxing should first become familiar with people in the Sixth Department before going out. Firstly, there would be someone to talk to in Yanjing if something happened outside, and secondly, there would be more opportunities for promotion. But some things are decided by others.

Everything will come true, no one knows when and what kind of opportunities will come to anyone, and it's hard for him to keep his word.

You think about it carefully, he said carefully.

I have been thinking about this all the way. Luo Zhenxing said, "When people pass by, they leave their names, and when geese pass by, they leave their voices. What's the point of being an official if you can't benefit the people?"

Xu Lingyi's eyes showed admiration, but he said nothing.

This is related to Luo Zhenxing's future, but the officialdom is treacherous. The emperor has been in power in recent years. Fan Weigang is in the north, He Chengbi is in the south, Jiang Yunfei is in the Governor's Office of the Fifth Army, and there is Ouyang Ming in the Imperial Guard. He keeps a low profile and the emperor treats him

Gradually he became friendly. If Baoding Mansion was an unintentional move, then going to Xuantong and Jiayuguan was a deliberate move that killed two birds with one stone. It not only affirmed his son's talent, but also knew the emperor's current views on him. But if he cheated on a civil servant

The emperor was afraid that he would be wary of him immediately.

On the issue of Luo Zhenxing, he would not express his opinions now that he had no way to guarantee him.

Xu Lingyi remained silent.

The atmosphere in the room became a little stagnant.

Eleven Niang looked at her brother, then at her husband, and laughed softly: Brother, how is the fifth sister's wife doing there? Last time he went back to Yanjing to report on his work, saying that he had something to see Mr. Chen Ge, and he and the Marquis hurriedly

After meeting him once, he left.

He has become very thin. With his sister's interruption, the atmosphere has improved a lot. Luo Zhenxing smiled and said, but he is in good spirits. When I went there, he was sitting on the field ridge talking to a few old farmers about this year's harvest. I saw it.

Brother Jin was so happy that he asked Brother Jin to ride a bull for a lap in the fields. He also asked Brother Jin whether he often met Brother Xin, how tall Brother Xin was now, and whether he was good at studying.

At this point, he frowned slightly, hesitated for a moment, and said to Eleven Niang, if you are free, go and persuade Wu Niang. Zichun has worked very hard in the past few years, so she should stop being angry with Zichun and lead her.

With a pair of children, she went to Wendeng and lived a good life with Zichun. She was born in blessings and did not know how to be blessed. She didn’t know that there were people who wanted to go to work with their husbands but couldn’t. It would be better for her. She said that Wendeng couldn’t find a good husband and insisted on staying.

In Yanjing, she didn't look like a wife at all. Her tone was serious and dissatisfied.

If this is the case, it would be better for the eldest brother to persuade the fifth sister. The eleventh mother was embarrassed and said, after all, I am the younger sister.

Luo Zhenxing couldn't help but think of Mrs. Luo.

If she were here, she wouldn't have to worry about such a thing at all.

He sighed and did not force it. Seeing that it was getting late, Xu Lingyi invited Luo Zhenxing to a small hall nearby and held a banquet in honor of Luo Zhenxing. Eleven Niang toasted Luo Zhenxing with a glass of wine and thanked him for his kindness to brother Jin.

He took care of her and then returned to the main hospital.

The banquet over there has been broken up. The five wives and the children are all sitting in the banquet room in the East Room. Listening to Brother Jin talk about what he has experienced along the way, some of the younger ones even say "Brother Six, please come on" from time to time.

There were exclamations as he spoke, and although the room was quiet, the lively atmosphere was overwhelming.

Eleven Niang stood under the eaves with a gentle smile on her face.

When Xu Lingyi returned home, he only saw Eleven Niang. He couldn't help but be shocked: Where is Brother Jin?

The escort girl went to spend the night. Eleven Niang smiled and helped him change clothes.

Why didn't you wait for me to come back? Xu Lingyi couldn't help but murmured in a low voice.

Eleven Niang thought of her disappointed expression when Xu Lingyi hadn't appeared when brother Jin left, and said angrily: The child has been waiting for you, but you never came back. The child felt a little uncomfortable when he left.

Then I'll go and say hello to my mother, Xu Lingyi said hesitantly.

It's too late at this time. Shiyi Niang said that she and brother Jin had been talking about sleeping for a long time, and they didn't even take a nap. At this time, I'm afraid I can't hold on and rest. Mr. Hou should go there tomorrow morning.

Xu Lingyi and Zhenxing had been discussing the release. Xu Lingyi muttered and went to the clean room.

Eleven Niang followed: Did the eldest brother finally decide to go out?

Well, Xu Lingyi washed his face and let him go. I didn't dare to say anything else. If he comes back to Yanjing to do something for Zhongzhong, with Ren Zhenxing's qualifications, I can still help. I'm afraid that he will hang up his boots and die.

Of the Luo family's generation, only Zhenxing won the Jinshi. He said, walked over, and I told Zhenxing that Yuhang should hire a good gentleman.

This is true. If the next generation of the Luo family does not win a Jinshi, I am afraid that they will be defeated after Luo Zhenxing.

Eleven Niang nodded slightly.

Someone knocked on their window.

Xu Lingyi and Eleven Niang looked at each other.

Who is so bold?

The thought flashed past, and Xu Lingyi's eyes lit up: Brother Jin thought that he should be serving in the wife's room at this time. He hurriedly opened the window and saw Brother Jin's smiling face.

Dad, have you missed me? I have missed you. He put his elbows on the windowpane. Have you ever gone to the racecourse to race horses as often as you did before? I have been in Jiangnan these days, riding boats every day, and I have dreamed of being with Dad several times.

Horse racing in the northwest together

Brother Jin didn't say anything. Xu Lingyi's eyes were already a little moist. As if to hide something, he patted his son on the shoulder: Why did you run back and didn't go to the front door and knock on the window? Where is your grandmother? She rested. Did she know you were coming?

Aren't I afraid that daddy will miss me so much that he can't sleep? Brother Jin said with a playful smile, but looking at Xu Lingyiyi, he just thought it was intimacy. On the pretext of going to clean the room, he ran out to let daddy have a look. After that, he turned around.

I ran away, I want to go back, lest grandma sees me gone and never returns, thinks I fell into the toilet, and goes to the clean room to look for it herself, sister Zhihong will suffer.

Xu Lingyi was stunned.

When he came to his senses, Brother Jin was gone.

This kid can run faster than a rabbit, but his eyes are full of doting. Fortunately, he can think of it and use the excuse to come to the clean room to see me.

Eleven Niang couldn’t help but hide her sleeves and smile.

In the next few days, the couple didn't talk about Brother Jin's whereabouts. They just listened to Brother Jin talk about his trip to the south of the Yangtze River, helped Brother Jin pack his things, and then picked an auspicious day to move to Qingyju, which was the small town.

Year.

After offering sacrifices to the community, cleaning the yard, putting up peach charms, and celebrating the New Year.

This year, the family was the neatest. Xu Lingyi was very happy. He drank a few more drinks at the New Year's Eve dinner. When he came back in the evening, he and Eleven Niang had a rowdy night, so much so that Eleven Niang went to the palace to congratulate her the next day.

From time to time, she would raise her sleeves and cough to cover up her yawns. As a result, in front of a palace full of foreigners, the Empress asked her concernedly if she had caught the cold.

Back home, Xu Lingyi was overjoyed, hugged her and joked: In the past, there were people who were ordered to write lyrics, so you might as well follow the ancients and take orders to recuperate.

The eleven-year-old mother who raised you gently pinched Xu Lingyi's arm.

Xu Lingyi fell on the bed holding the place where he pinched her: Why can't I lift my arm? Go call the imperial doctor.

The first day of the Lunar New Year is called the imperial doctor

Looking at Xu Lingyi who was like a child, Eleven Niang was a little bit dumbfounded: No wonder Brother Jin is so naughty, it turns out he just followed the Marquis's temper.

Of course, Xu Lingyi pretended to be a frivolous person who was trying to achieve his goals, and he spoke so eloquently that you didn’t even know whose son he was.

Eleven Niang smiled and bent over.

If Denghua hadn't come to ask when he was going to Hongdeng Hutong to pay New Year greetings to Lord Sun, the two of them would have been laughing and joking.

On the fifth day of the fifth lunar month, I received the news that Princess Changfu had passed away.

All the prominent people in Beijing rushed to the princess mansion.

Elderly people are particularly susceptible to sentimentality when they hear it. Mrs. Tai went to the princess's house to express her condolences in person, and met Taijun Zheng, who was older than Mrs. Tai. The two elderly people got together to express their feelings for a long time, and Mrs. Tai felt a little uncomfortable when she returned home.

stand up.

Xu Lingyi waited in front of the bed.

After two days, there was still no improvement. Xu Lingkuan asked for leave, and the third room also came over.

Mrs. Mimi woke up in a daze and asked where Brother Zhen was and where Brother Zin was. Occasionally she also asked Brother Shen. The three children stayed in the house, plus the three Xu brothers and the maids and daughters-in-law who were serving them.

, the air in the room became turbid. Eleven Niang saw that this was not a problem, and discussed with Xu Lingyi, and several people took turns guarding the room.

Considering that the back garden was too far from Mrs. Tai's residence, Eleven Niang arranged for the people in the third room to rest in the small courtyard next to the Dianchun Hall.

Their family of eight, plus the maid and mother-in-law, seemed a bit crowded.

Mrs. Jiang has been helping Eleven Niang to host the middle school these days. Mrs. Tai is ill, so Eleven Niang’s energy is focused on Mrs. Tai’s side, and she has taken up the daily affairs at home. When she saw this, she took the initiative to discuss with Eleven Niang: How about

Let the eldest brother and the third brother live with me. The first hospital I enter is also empty.

Eleven Niang thought about it and agreed.

Who knew that the third lady would keep Fang by her side to serve her: I am also feeling a little uncomfortable these days.

Or seeing the always tough Madam suddenly become so weak and pale, the Third Master has been very silent. After hearing the words of the Third Madam, he unexpectedly glanced at the Third Madam coldly: You are not feeling well?

Just go back. If that doesn't work, I'll send you back to your parents' home to recuperate.

In front of so many people, especially the juniors present, the third lady couldn't hold back her face. Tears fell down her face, but she didn't dare to say a word.

Mrs. Fang hurriedly said: Father-in-law, my mother-in-law is indeed feeling a little uncomfortable these days. I will just serve you here.

The gentle third master showed unexpected firmness and told his eldest son Xu Siqin: Go and ask your uncle to take your mother back to recuperate.

Xu Siqin, Xu Sijian and his wife were both stunned.

The third lady cried and turned around and went into the inner room, shouting loudly to the maids to pack things. How dare those maids really pack things and drag them slowly. The two sons knelt down and persuaded them, and the matter was over.

.

But this was in the Yongping Marquis Mansion, and nothing could be hidden from Eleven Niang.

Soon it reached her ears.

Eleven Niang couldn't help but sigh.

Thinking of the first time I met the Third Madam, how could such a smart and intelligent person do such an inappropriate thing? It can be seen that this temper is also cultivated.
