Ajiu

Chapter 201 Poor Parents
Ah Jiu took Yu Jijiu's invitation booklet and read it, and expressed her opinion to the Crown Prince, "Brother Ten, this Yu Jijiu seems to be very honest. He didn't say anything nice, only said that he was loved by Mr. Tang Ge." Moreover, his son and nephew are not suitable to be officials."

The crown prince smiled, "He is not very tactful and has a stubborn temper, that's why he has been holding idle posts in Nanjing. If he was a scheming official, he would have tried his best to transfer to the capital, or find a job abroad." , it’s better than being idle in Nanjing. Junior sister, this person is probably really honest.”

"A good candidate who fell from the sky." Ajiu tutted.With an innocent family background, upright and simple, and no power, there is no one more suitable than the Yu family to choose husbands for the two daughters of the deposed prince.

Ajiu is already the mother of two, her face is still white and pink, as smooth as jade, very beautiful.Her big, round, clear and clear apricot-core eyes were full of mischief, lively, delicate and cute. Seeing such a little junior sister, the Crown Prince was in high spirits.

"Father wants to see the Yu family's children with his own eyes." The crown prince said with a smile.

"It's natural." Ajiu felt it should be taken for granted.It is normal for a grandfather to visit his grandson-in-law in person.In fact, the fat emperor is really a good father and grandfather. If the abolished prince was not so impatient that he forced the palace in a hurry, the matter would never have reached this point.

Ajiu's lips were lustrous pink, and her teeth were very white. When she spoke with high spirits, the crown prince always felt itchy in his heart.He coughed lightly, took the hand of the little junior sister, and asked her to sit side by side with him.The female officials and palace maids all had winks. Seeing this situation, they retreated quietly, not daring to stay in the palace to get in the way. This is already an unwritten rule of the Eastern Palace, but if the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess have the intention of being intimate, Those who serve must retreat outside the temple, and are not allowed to enter without being summoned.

"Junior Sister, I thought of something very touching to tell you last night, but just as I was about to say it, my two sons came to make trouble." The crown prince complained.

He liked the two sons, Xiao Zhengzheng and Xiao Pingping very much, but he sent them to bed to rest at night, shouldn't they just sleep obediently?Then put on the silk clogs and get off the bed, two brats come over hand in hand, insisting on sleeping with their parents, what is the reason for this?The sweet words that he had prepared with all his heart, once they came, the father just forgot.

Ajiu was very happy, "Brother Ten, what were you going to say to me? Tell me, I will listen." She closed her eyes comfortably, "Come on, Brother Ten, whisper in my ear, you want Very gentle and gentle, pouring all your affection into it."

Ajiu's long eyelashes drooped, and the corners of her lips were smiling, ready to let her ears enjoy it.The crown prince cautiously approached her, "Junior Junior Sister, Brother Ten had thought about it, but when Xiao Zhengzheng and Xiao Pingping came, Brother Ten forgot about it, and I really haven't thought about it until now." He saw Junior Sister In this way, thinking about letting my junior sister down, I am really full of guilt.

"It's okay, Brother Ten, think about it slowly." Ajiu still closed her eyes, smiling sweetly, "I'll be waiting for you, Brother Ten, think again."

The crown prince's guilt was deeper, and he couldn't remember it anymore.

"If you really can't remember, then kiss me." Ajiu giggled.

"Little Junior Sister is so cute." The Crown Prince was so moved, he slowly lowered his head, and was about to kiss her tender and moist lips...

"Wow", the loud cry of a child sounded in my ears.The crown prince's thoughts disappeared, and Ah Jiu hurriedly opened his eyes, "Xiao Pingping is crying? He seldom cries like this. Brother Ten, hurry up, let's go and have a look." He got off the ground smartly, and followed the crying sound to the hall. the door.

At the door, the female officer was sweating anxiously, "His Royal Highness Lu, it is really inconvenient for you to go in." Xiao Pingping ignored her, raised his face and cried, as if he had been wronged by the sky.

Xiaozheng walked over with dignified steps, frowning slightly, "Brother, you can talk now, you can't just cry when things happen." You can walk and talk now, you are not a baby who can only sleep all day , to be motivated, understand or not.

Xiao Pingping just ignored him, tears streaming down his face, crying loudly.

"Son, what's the matter with you?" The crown prince and Ajiu came to him almost at the same time, squatted down, and asked him with distressed faces.

Xiao Pingping first flung himself into his father's arms to act like a spoiled child, and then switched to his mother's side, sometimes raised his face and said something eagerly, sometimes turned his head and pointed at the female officials and maids, and made a "beating" movement with his small hands to express his anger.Ajiu smiled, and asked softly: "Xiao Pingping is going in, they stopped you, right?" Xiao Pingping nodded his head in great grievance, and looked at Ajiu eagerly with his dark eyes, not to mention how pitiful he was.

"Father and mother are inside, if you want to go in, you have to ask for instructions first, and then you can go in after your parents agree." Ajiu gently reasoned with him, "Son, mother will hang a small bell for you at the entrance of the hall." Okay? If you come, ring the bell, and Mother will come to pick you up."

"Not good." Xiao Pingping didn't say anything, and Xiao Zhengzheng on the side resolutely expressed his opposition.Xiao Pingping looked at his parents, looked at his brother, broke away from Ajiu's arms and stood with his brother, the two brothers put on a small face together, and looked at their parents with condemning eyes.

Don't let the two of us come in casually. If you want to announce and ring the bell, that's not going to work.

Xiao Zhengzheng was fine, he was the grandson of the emperor, and he would put on a serious face to scare people when he urinated.Xiao Pingping had just cried before, his little face was like a cat's, and he wanted to learn from his brother, so it was obviously ridiculous.

Ajiu tried to reason with the two sons, but Xiao Zhengzheng and Xiao Pingping didn't listen at all, and stood with their heads held high, with the same posture and attitude from beginning to end.

"Don't be naughty and spank your ass again." The crown prince threatened.

The two brothers had a tacit understanding, and they poked their little butts towards him together.

The Crown Prince and Ah Jiu looked at each other helplessly.Words can't move them, and force can't make them submit. Xiao Zhengzheng, Xiao Pingping, what should parents do with you?

Xiao Pingping especially had the spirit of not being afraid of being beaten, he pouted his little butt high, raised his head and smiled at the crown prince, "Father, beating." It seemed that he didn't want to be beaten, but to play a fun game.

Xiao Zhengzheng also raised his head, with a calm expression on his face, "Why don't you do anything? You've been waiting for a long time."

On this day, Xiao Zhengzheng and Xiao Pingping refused to leave after dinner, and even after washing up, Xiao Zhengzheng dragged his younger brother to his parents' big bed. "I'll sleep with mother, you'll sleep with dad." Xiao Zhengzheng assigned them skillfully, and Xiao Pingping nodded obediently.

The crown prince quietly told Ah Jiu, "Little sister, you need to put your son to sleep quickly." The two of them glanced at each other and agreed: Of course we want to spend a good night together tonight, and of course it's not okay to have a son making trouble here , put them to sleep.Xiaozhengzheng and Xiaoping are like piglets when they fall asleep, and they don't know if someone takes them away, and then they will be handed over to the wet nurse to sleep in the side room, and they won't notice when they come back in the morning.

Ah Jiu tried very hard to tell the bedtime story, the crown prince hugged Xiao Pingping and patted hard, the two tried their best, Xiao Zhengzheng and Xiao Pingping seemed to have discussed it, but they just didn't sleep. "Tell me one more time, and one more time." Xiaozheng was not satisfied with his request.

Xiao Pingping was obviously crazy. He should have gone to bed at this time, but now that his brother was not going to sleep, he persisted, yawned a lot, and refused to close his eyes to sleep.

The crown prince hated to spank his little ass, and raised his hand in the air, but seeing him turn his head to look at him, his eyes were full of trust and attachment, and he retracted his hand embarrassingly.

Ajiu told stories to Xiao Zhengzheng, and the crown prince coaxed Xiao Pingping, and the two looked at each other sadly and plaintively from time to time.Alas, being a parent is not easy.

When the two sons finally fell asleep, Ah Jiu also fell down tired, "Brother Ten, my upper and lower eyelids are fighting." The crown prince sighed, and gently kissed her on the cheek, "Little sister, go to sleep."

Xiao Pingping stretched his legs and slept comfortably.Although Xiao Zhengzheng didn't take up as much space as him, he was not much better.The two children were sleeping soundly in the middle of the bed, Ajiu and the Crown Prince were in the corner and the other was on the edge of the bed, staring at each other tenderly for a long time before turning off the lights.

Yu Jijiu brought his nephew Lu Feng and son Yu Jing to the capital, and the emperor personally summoned him.Yu Jijiu looks very honest and honest, not someone who knows how to be flexible. Lu Feng and Yu Jing, cousins, are somewhat alike. They are both delicate and elegant, with white faces like jade. two years old.The emperor tested their knowledge and frowned, "If you take the imperial examination, it's not difficult to pass." Such a talent married the daughter of the deposed prince, which affected his official career. Can he not complain?If there is resentment in your heart, how can you treat your wife sincerely.

Yu Jijiu told the truth, "If they want to take the imperial examination, they are probably a little stronger than the ministers, but not too much. Studying is hard, and it is not easy to be an official. I thought, it is better to go back to my hometown. Acres of land, life is pretty good."

Some people want to be officials, and some don't.Those who want to be officials are the majority, and those who don't want to be officials are few, but there really are.Yu Jijiu is one of them. He doesn't think there is any good in being an official. He has an indifferent temperament and yearns for a rural life. His nephew and son are also influenced by him.

The emperor smiled slightly, a look of satisfaction flashed in his eyes.

Yu Jijiu was originally a fourth-rank official, and the emperor allowed him to retire as an emeritus and receive a fourth-rank salary for life.Chaoyang and Qingyang came out of the pavilion as princesses, and built the princess's mansion in Yu Jijiu's hometown, and Lu Feng and Yu Jing enjoyed the salary of the guests of ceremonies.

Yu Jijiu insisted on resigning from the fourth-rank Dai salary, "Without merit, he will not be paid. The minister has already resigned, and it makes no sense to enjoy the imperial salary. Besides, the minister has always held idle posts in Nanjing and has not made any appointments for the court. Credit." There are indeed people who still enjoy their salaries after resigning, and they are all highly respected and have made great contributions. Yu Jijiu knew how much he was, so he was determined not to take it.

The emperor didn't force it either.

Chaoyang and Qingyang's marriage was settled just like that.The clan's mansion is busy with the wedding, and when the wedding is completed, Yu Jijiu will take his son, daughter-in-law, nephew, and nephew-in-law back to his hometown, and live a quiet and peaceful pastoral life.

Empress Zhang was very happy about this, and said many times in private to her two daughters, Princess Ningshou and Princess Fushou, "My granddaughter has been settled for life, and the grandmother is very happy for them. Ningshou, Fushou, I can laugh in my sleep Wake up." Princess Ningshou and Princess Fushou felt sad when she heard that, "Yes, the two poor children are finally able to leave the cabinet." They were supposed to be the most honorable princesses like themselves, but now they have fallen to this point. It is thankful to go out and not be imprisoned for life.

The fate of life is too unpredictable.

None of the mother and daughter mentioned the two sons of the abolished prince, A Jia and A Jin.

Those two children, as long as the emperor is still alive, it is impossible to release them anyway.

Perhaps, when Empress Zhang becomes the master of the house one day, she will order Xiao Shi to give them a way out.Make a county king, give a rich vassal land, and spend a rich life.

Right now, it's impossible.

Yu Jijiu was waiting for his son and nephew to marry a wife in Beijing, so he had to be of the same age and family as before.He is a very humble person, without any outstanding talent, and he is not proud of himself in the officialdom, so he can only serve as an idle official in Nanjing for many years.This time, he has become a figure that the contemporaries pay attention to, and everyone is very concerned about him.Yu Jijiu is an honest person, not used to these things, he always laughs and rarely speaks.He is not good at eloquence, and what he is best at in his life is laughing when he meets people, not talking when he doesn't laugh, or just laughing and not talking.

This is a good old man.

He made many people feel ashamed.He didn't have any rhetoric, and he didn't discuss it with others. He did it without warning.Moreover, he didn't take it as any great event, and he didn't make much of it.

Like many of his classmates, Jin Tongzheng felt ashamed in front of Yu Jijiu.Who doesn't have a son?However, only he is willing to marry such a bride for his only son, Airuo's own nephew.This is related to Lu Feng and Yu Jing's lifetime career, and he decided decisively.

"You are amazing!" Jin Tongzheng sighed.

"Where, where." Yu Jijiu opened his mouth very rarely, and said honestly, "I'm not willing to do anything. I won't hesitate to marry Mr. Tang's granddaughter, but if you want me to marry my daughter to Mr. Tang grandson, I would not kill him."

When the daughter-in-law gets married back home, just treat her well.If you marry a daughter and let her be imprisoned with her husband, you can say nothing, even with a knife on your neck.

The two sons of the abolished prince were not descended from Concubine Tang.Jin Tongzheng looked at Yu Jijiu with a simple and honest face, not knowing what to say.

After Jin Tongzheng returned home, he and Xiangshi sighed, "There is such a sincere gentleman in the world. My lady, compared with him, we are ashamed to say that we are the teacher's disciples." He also said that Yu Jijiu can marry a daughter-in-law but not a daughter As he said, "...he doesn't brag at all, he is real."

When Xiangshi heard the words of marrying his daughter, he shuddered.

Daughter marrying the son of the deposed prince?It is.

"It's the truth, no one can do it." Xiang said softly, "It's the same for us."

Xiangshi asked herself, if she were to marry An'er to the son of the deposed prince, she would probably die of heartache.However, if the daughter can marry into a good family, she can also help Concubine Tang's daughter by the way, wouldn't it kill two birds with one stone?What a beautiful thing.It's a pity that such a beautiful thing didn't work out in the end.

Jin Tongzheng turned pale, "Of course it can't be done."

Although An'er was already married, even though it was completely impossible, as long as he thought about such a thing, he felt terrible.

"It's good that An'er gets married." Xiangshi said with lingering fear.I have offended the Crown Princess, the Crown Princess is very arrogant, if she goes to His Majesty to complain, saying that she never forgets Tang Ge's kindness and wants to repay her kindness, and suggests that An'er marry the son of the deposed prince?Scary, thank goodness she didn't.

"Yeah, that's fine." Jin Tongzheng nodded.

Although Chen Lingyun's son-in-law is not from a good background, he is really kind to An'er. Moreover, he was born on the battlefield, he is brave and keen, and has a bright future.

An'er married him, it was right.

Both Jin Tongzheng and his wife thought this way, but on a sunny afternoon, An'er returned to her natal home with a pale face.

She wants to make peace with Chen Lingyun.
