Chapter 339 Giving birth to a son and returning home smoothly
The next good news is: Fang Qunqun has given birth to a son.
Li Cheng accompanied Lin Zhixiu and went to Prince An's Mansion happily.
As soon as I entered the house, it was very lively and noisy inside, but if I looked carefully, I saw that there were no outsiders, just the Fang family of Qing Yishui'er.
As soon as Lin Zhixiu arrived, the twin sisters rushed over, looking like flowers, one hugging her with one arm. The two of them talked to each other, one praised her clothes and jewelry, and the other talked about the new baby... They had nothing to do with each other.
, but one sentence after another without stumbling!
Fang Meimei's son was also just one month old, and the couple took him to see their newborn cousin.
Next to them are the newlyweds Fang Jiji and his wife, dressed brightly.
Mr. Fang dressed up in a group of five and six, put on an airs and drank tea with a smile. His grandson is the eldest son of Prince An's Mansion. I'm so dazzled! He is so glorious!
The old lady next to her looked at Lin Zhixiu kindly and greeted her softly.
Lin Zhixiu couldn't see clearly. As soon as she teased Fang Meimei's son Zhao Dalang, she saw another young man in brocade clothes standing next to the old lady.
"Fang Xu?" Lin Zhixiu was shocked.
We haven’t seen each other for more than half a year, and Fang Xu jumped up. If he didn’t look carefully, he thought he was an adult!
He smiled and saluted Lin Zhixiu, showing his white teeth and said, "Aunt Xiuxiu!"
"Oh my god! He's grown so tall?" Lin Zhixiu touched him curiously.
Look at this gorgeous outfit! A perfect student from a wealthy family...
Old Mrs. Fang said: "Isn't it!? I just haven't grown any flesh and my head has grown! Look at these thin arms, I'm worried..."
Mr. Fang quickly said: "Grow taller first, and then gain weight when you are older! There is too much fat and you will not grow taller!"
Li Cheng quickly squeezed over, "Not as tall as me, far behind me..."
Mrs. Fang said: "Have you never met Fang Xu's second uncle?"
Lin Zhixiu discovered that next to the two old men, there was a thin middle-aged man sitting on a wooden wheelchair.
Fang Qunqun quickly introduced: "Axiu, that's my second uncle! Second uncle, this is the Axiu we often talk about! If it weren't for her, our family wouldn't be living so well!"
The man didn't look good, but he was polite and spoke in a gentle southern dialect, "Thank you so much, Mrs. Lin!"
"Uncle Fang, are you still used to being in the capital?"
"It's just that the weather is drier, but everything else is fine! I got so many family members all at once, and I'm very happy every day!"
"Xiu'er, look at my baby!"
"Oh yes, where is the baby?"
"Hurry up and push out the crib!" Fang Qunqun's voice was full of satisfaction.
Hey, where is Uncle An Wang? He was obviously there, but why didn’t he hear the sound?
Lin Zhixiu looked around and saw King An sitting on a chair by the window, drinking tea and reading a book. He was probably used to Fang's family, so he didn't bother to avoid it and just sat there doing his own thing.
Turn a deaf ear to all kinds of laughter!
A servant girl rolled out a small bed from the next room.
Above, King An's eldest son is sound asleep!
Lin Zhixiu and Li Cheng leaned over to the crib to look at him, "Oh, he's so good-looking! Look at his hair, it's dark and thick, and his skin is really white!"
Fang Qunqun said, "It was red when I was born, and then turned white in two days. I was always worried that I might look like the prince!"
When his son came out, King An came over. Hearing these words was unpleasant to his ears, "What is a boy doing for free?"
He didn't get his son until he was middle-aged. These days, he hugs his son whenever he wakes up. Yesterday, his beloved eldest son only occasionally opened his eyes...
Two dark eyes, hanging at the ends of the eyes... That expression and look are a bit like Fang Qunqun's buoyant energy!
He was so scared that his eldest son would end up like the princess... that would cost him his life.
He secretly made up his mind: He must take care of this son himself. He must train him to be a qualified heir according to his own image, and he must not be as inconsistent as the princess and the Fang family...
Everyone was noisy and joking, but the newborn was not afraid at all, minding his own business and sleeping soundly.
Fang Meimei's son stared blankly at the little one.
Li Cheng pulled King An and went to the courtyard to tell him that King Jin was coming back. He asked King An, "If my father brings trouble to my second brother, please ask Uncle An for your help."
King An looked at Li Cheng, who talked endlessly, and neither agreed nor refused.
Fang Qunqun and Lin Zhixiu talked about the Lin family gossip. Before, Fang Qunqun already knew that the Yuan family and the Huang family lost all their wealth because of shipping.
At this moment, she was laughing so hard that her whole body was trembling, "You deserve it! Without our good luck, we dare to make such a big move! Yuan has always been greedy, but what happened to Huang? She has always been
You are so sure, how can you take risks?! Are you trying to kill yourself now? Hey, is the old lady involved?"
Seeing Lin Zhixiu shaking her head, she was still a little unwilling, "Why did you let her hide away? That old witch is the worst..."
"She's not doing much better. The old man just let her practice Buddhism in his room, and she's not allowed to come out or see guests. The Liu family is now in charge of the house, and sometimes the fourth aunt even helps."
"Well, your fourth aunt is a good one. I left a message for her and will come when it's convenient for her. It's best to take her little son with her! In the future, it will be great for the boys from several families to play together!"
"Fourth Aunt has suffered a lot this time. Let's go out after she has recovered!"
Fang Qunqun couldn't help but get wet when she heard the laughter next to her, "How could I have imagined that the Fang family would be able to live the life they have now! When the second uncle came, my grandmother and father decided to pass Fang Xiaoxiao to the second uncle. In the future,
We are looking for a son-in-law at home. The prince said that he will find a suitable son-in-law under him... so that my second uncle can rely on him!"
"Well, that's good! Xiaoxiao has a cheerful personality, but also has a rough and tactful attitude. He will definitely be able to take good care of his second uncle!"
"That's it, my second uncle likes her!"
"When Fang Xu wins Jinshi, the Fang family will really stand up!"
"The prince sent him two servants, a chaperone, and an old gentleman. He was always keeping an eye on him, for fear that he would be led astray by my grandfather."
"How is it, old man?"
"He, he has to keep an eye on him anyway. When he goes outside, he won't know what to do if someone flatters him! However, now he is afraid of my grandmother, my father, and Fang Xu, so... it's not so bad. Anyway, he is afraid of my grandmother, my father, and Fang Xu.
It's been like this all my life! Xiu'er, He Qing, I hate you so much! A few days ago, I made an appointment with a few princesses to come together. They always tell you in front of me, so that you can't pick one out, but you can't
It sounded good. In the end, I got annoyed and replied to her a few words before she became honest. How are you...?"
Lin Zhixiu sighed, "Oh, I don't know why it ended up like this. How kind Uncle An Wang is! If I marry you, I won't let you worry about this."
"Well, our prince is very good! He can also tolerate my family!"
"Yes! I'm fine. Once the door is closed, it becomes two houses. But if it continues like this, it's really not a problem!"
"Oh, Heqing, I see, she will have to commit suicide sooner or later! You should hurry up and have a baby! That's great..." Her face was full of happiness.
Lin Zhixiu smiled but said nothing.
Although the matter has come to this, it is hard to make peace with it! It’s okay to go through this by yourself...
But children, even if they are born as concubines, will really feel sorry for them.
On the way back, Li Cheng got into the car again and said, "Look at Uncle An Wang's proud look! Huh! They all gave birth to sons, let's have a daughter, right?! Things are rare and valuable, and when the time comes, greedy
Kill them..."
Lin Zhixiu looked at his greedy look, smiled, and said nothing.
————Li Xu’s affairs went smoothly and he returned to Beijing more than a month in advance.
Li Cheng took Wu Dong and went to pick him up outside the city.
As soon as we met, we found that this second brother had changed tremendously.
First of all, he was extremely tanned, extremely thin, and had several deep wrinkles at the corners of his eyes.
He is tired and worn out by the vicissitudes of life. He looks like he is almost the same age as the emperor...
However, when he opened his eyes, they were bright and clear, and he looked more calm and restrained than the last time he came back.
The two brothers walked back, and Li Cheng was anxious to know how he was doing.
King Jin nodded, "It's smoother than expected. This is also because we have made sufficient preparations in advance, and the people we find and use are all reliable. This time, I brought all the old, weak, sick and disabled in the house."
of."
Li Cheng looked at the remnants behind him who were either riding horses or riding in cars, and couldn't help but smile, "Although these people are not attractive, they are really useful!"
"Well! Everyone is very happy to be able to make great achievements. Especially, the few officials I met last time are really good! After this training, they can also stand alone!"
"Father, second brother has decided what to do..." Li Cheng was a little worried.
"With the current interests of the imperial court, there is no room for him to do anything!" Li Xu said coldly.
He brought back an income plan of two million taels a year. How could he refuse?!
The two exchanged messages for a while...
"Master Qi, your princess came in... How are you doing?" Yuan Jing couldn't help it anymore and interrupted.
Li Xu glared at him, "Seventh brother, don't pay attention to him!"
Li Cheng boasted: "Ah Jing, who am I! I can handle it so well! Why marry a princess?! It's just a formality. I didn't go to pick up the bride, go to the church, or go back to the east courtyard! Humph, my father must have taken them
Even if I stay here, they are willing to come! Then... once you enter my house, you can no longer follow their wishes."
"Ms. Lin, I didn't lose my temper with you?!" Yuan Jing winked.
Li Xu looked at the original scene and was speechless. Could you be more boring? That's all. He has been nervous for so long, so he should just relax.
"How could Axiu lose his temper with me! I am a manly man, of course she will respect me! Besides, she has such a good temper! There is no one better or gentler than her, and it is too late to be considerate to me.
Why would you lose your temper with me?!"
After Yuan Jing heard this, he thought: The prince is probably bragging! He laughed.
When Wu Dong heard this, he said: "Your Majesty is right, Empress Lin is smart and capable! She has nothing to say to the Prince!" Anyway, in his eyes, there is never anything wrong between the Prince and Empress Lin!
At the gate of the city, people sent by the emperor were waiting for Li Xu, telling him to go home and rest, and bring his things to see the saint tomorrow.
Li Cheng went home and talked about the matter with Lin Zhixiu, "Second brother has worked hard for so long and even punished the Kong family and the Lian family. I don't know if there will be any good results."
The backlash from the aristocratic family cannot be underestimated.
If the emperor didn't suppress it for him, it would be his second brother who would be sacrificed.
"After all, this is about a million taels of silver. No matter how much the emperor has an opinion against the second brother, he will not use the lifeblood of the imperial court to harm him. I see, this level is nothing."
"I also invited Uncle An Wang to help me when the time comes..."
