God-given peasant wife's good fortune

Chapter 495 Yao's Forbearance

507
Yao looked at Su Kefang with a complicated expression, hesitant to speak.

Su Kefang's heart tightened, and he asked, "Mother, did something happen to Zirun?"

Yao Shi let out a long sigh, held Su Kefang's hand, and said softly, "Fang'er, Hong'er is in command and going out."

The moment she received the imperial decree in Fengguo Village, she began to feel uneasy. She did not expect to get the news that her son led the troops to Changfu as soon as she arrived in Shengjing.

Thinking of her father-in-law and husband who died unjustly, as well as the hundreds of members of Xiang's family, Yao was furious, and at this moment the Queen Mother summoned her and personally apologized to her for what happened back then.

Can an apology exchange the lives of hundreds of people in the Xiang family?One sentence of apology, one posthumous title, wanted to obliterate the fault of the former emperor, Yao sneered.

Yao shi knew very well in his heart that now there is no general in the court, and the power of the country is in shambles. Ouyang Rui is also in a hurry. Otherwise, how could he let a person with no combat experience take command?
Yao shi hated in her heart, she hated their surname Ouyang, the Xiang family died unjustly back then, and now she wanted to send her son to die, Yao shi was unwilling, but when she thought of her grandson and granddaughter, no matter how much she hated, she could only pretend to accept it I have accepted the Queen Mother's apology, because she can't plant the seeds of disaster for her grandchildren because of her momentary anger!

Take command and set off? !
Su Kefang was stunned, and it took him a while to find his own voice: "Mother, how could Zirun be in command?"

Su Kefang couldn't digest this matter for a while, she really couldn't associate Xiang Zirun with the leader of the army.

Xiang Zirun's skills are good, and he is also the head of the Yin Yang Division, but leading soldiers in battle is not just about being good at skills.

Could it be said that there is really no one in Anjin Kingdom?

Also, the reason why the emperor called them back to Shengjing so urgently was to hold them hostage in Shengjing, right?
Yao patted Su Kefang's hand, and comforted him: "Don't worry, the emperor is not a careless person."

Although she was also worried about her son, she had to pretend to be calm in front of her daughter-in-law.

"Fang'er," Yao patted the back of her hand again, and said earnestly, "It's a blessing or a curse. No matter what, our life will continue. Wenwen and Ze'er are still young, so no matter what happens in the future, We all have to live well."

Yao shi is using her own experience to teach her daughter-in-law. She used to tell her like this every time her man went to the battlefield, because every time her husband went to the battlefield, she was ready for him to leave and never return.

Now she wants her daughter-in-law to make such preparations, even if there is really bad news, she won't be able to bear it.

Thinking of this, Yao's heart felt like a knife was twisted.

Su Kefang held her mother-in-law's hand back, and said firmly: "Mother, Zirun will be fine, I trust him, I will take good care of the two children, and wait for Zirun to come back!"

Yao shi glanced at her worriedly, moved his lips, but in the end he didn't persuade her anymore.

The battlefield is changing rapidly, and even a veteran general cannot guarantee that he can retreat completely. Just like the two generals before, one died on the battlefield, and the other was captured and beheaded and hanged on the city gate. Hong'er with no combat experience?
Yao shi now only hopes that his son can return safely, even if he loses the battle, so what?
A few days later, Lin Zhaohong showed up at the Duke's Mansion. He handed Su Kefang a wooden box and left in a hurry.

In the wooden box, apart from the land deed of a Zhuangzi outside the city of Shengjing, there is also the deed and land deed of a jade shop in the most prosperous area of ​​Shengjing, and a stack of bank notes, with Xiang Zirun's personal letter on the bottom.

This letter was written by Xiang Zirun before he set off for the expedition. It was full of ten pages. It explained to her that he did not know the emperor's plan until he arrived in Shengjing, and the arrangements for the Duke's Mansion. Things that need to be paid attention to, such as who can make friends in Shengjing, who can be avoided, etc., there are no details, and in the end it is his reluctance to her and the child.

After reading the letter, Su Kefang truly felt that Xiang Zirun was really on the battlefield.

Su Kefang sighed lightly, and put the letter away.

Remembering that her brother had repeatedly told her to write a letter to him when she arrived in Shengjing, Su Kefang asked Su Mu to prepare a pen and paper to write to his brother about the situation on his side.

Of course, the letter is to report good news but not bad news.

Su Kefang was not familiar with Shengjing City, and was about to ask Xiang Bingyu to take him out for a walk, when Xiang Bingyu came over.

"Fang'er, mother said that there will be a banquet in a few days, let me take you to buy some clothes and jewelry." Xiang Bingyu said with a smile.

Now that he has returned to Shengjing, Yao shi has no intention of escaping any longer, he must do what needs to be done, and see the people who need to be seen.

After Yao returned to Shengjing, she received a lot of posts. Whether it was good intentions or malicious ones, she rejected them because of her physical discomfort. Now that her daughter-in-law is back, she wants to introduce Fang'er to everyone, so that it will be easier for Fang'er to get to know her when she is away. act.

Su Kefang has never been in contact with this kind of banquet in the upper circles. Yao Shi sent Xiang Bingyu a task. As soon as he got into the carriage, Xiang Bingyu told Su Kefang the things that need to be paid attention to at the banquet, and Introduced the female relatives present at the banquet and their temperament and preferences.

While speaking, the carriage had already stopped in front of a tailor shop, and Xiang Bingyu took Su Kefang out of the carriage.

Xiang Bingyu has not returned to Shengjing for several years, but in recent years Shengjing has become more prosperous than before, and many shops are still the original owners, and Xiang Bingyu is not completely unfamiliar.

"There are only a few days left in the banquet, and it's too late for custom-made clothes. We can only buy ready-made clothes." Xiang Bingyu looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar ready-made clothes shop in front of him, and spoke to Su Kefang beside him with a little emotion in his tone. Said.

This ready-to-wear shop is still the original one, but the facade has been redecorated.

Su Kefang followed Xiang Bingyu into the ready-to-wear shop. This ready-to-wear shop has a large area with three doors. When the two entered the shop, there were several elderly women with their backs facing the door, choosing clothes.

Xiang Bingyu has been away from Shengjing for many years, and things have changed here. She didn't pay attention to those people, and walked to the other side with Su Kefang to choose clothes.

Xiang Bingyu spoke to Su Kefang in a low voice, telling her that this ready-to-wear shop is very famous in Shengjing, and it basically does business with rich and powerful families.

Su Kefang didn't know the styles and colors of the clothes that are popular in Shengjing today. He had already looked at the clothes of the young women without a trace when he entered the clothing store just now. He had already made up his mind, so when the lady shopkeeper introduced the clothes to them, Su Kefang quickly chose an embroidered wrap dress and a vibrating waist-supporting bottom skirt, and another rose Red brocade jacket.

"Fang'er really has a vision." Xiang Bingyu's eyes flashed with admiration.

She was originally worried that her sister-in-law was from the countryside, and her aesthetics would be limited, and she would be despised in Shengjing, a place where comparisons and strange eyes are everywhere. Now it seems that she and her mother are worrying in vain.
