The servants grabbed Qiu Ju's two arms and planned to drag them out, but suddenly heard Xiao Jingduo's voice. They looked at each other and didn't know what to do. Wei Wei snorted and scolded: "What are you doing, why don't you drag this cheap maid away?"

    The servants woke up like a dream and were about to exert force on their arms, but heard Xiao Jingduo say: "I see who dares!"

    The youth has not yet passed the period of voice change, and his voice is still a little immature, but it contains a fierceness. The maids' hands suddenly lost their strength, and they were driving Qiu Ju in a vain manner, daring not to move.

    Mammy Wei saw that her words didn't work, and she was so angry that she cursed. Wu Junru also felt ashamed: "Didn't you hear what I said? Are you still not taking action?"

      I didn't wash it, and now I dare to do something again? I saved face for you in front of the princess and didn't say much, but do you think I really don't know the inside story? You have to make it public In the world, tearing up the so-called reputation of the Wu family, and even bringing down the Cui family, will you have a long memory?"

    Xiao Jingduo stood in front of the Wu family and said word by word: "Don't forget, the Cui family is at a critical juncture after the election. Do you dare to ruin the affairs of the Cui family?"

    Xiao Jingduo's eyes and pupils were dark, like a deep pool where no sunlight could be seen all year round. She fell a step after being startled, and Wei Wei quickly reached out to support her. Wu Junru swallowed her saliva, but she didn't dare to look into Xiao Jingduo's eyes for a while. She turned her head in a panic and told herself to bear with him for the time being, so she left the sentence "Let's go" and left quickly.

    When the other servants saw that Wu was gone, they looked at each other, and quickly put down Qiu Ju and sneaked away.

    When all the people in the yard left, Xiao Jingduo withdrew his gaze and walked to Qiu Ju: "Get up, they won't embarrass you anymore."

    "Da Langjun", Qiu Ju said with a crying voice, sitting on the ground and looking up at Xiao Jingduo, "We offended Madam Hou, what should we do in the future? By the way, Madam, how is Madam? already?"

    Xiao Jingduo sighed: "Mother passed out, get up first."

    Qiu Ju stood up, wiped her tears with a handkerchief, and cried for a while before she suddenly remembered and said, "Ah, Dalang-Jun, aren't you being punished to kneel by the Marquis? I know, will you blame you for knowing mistakes and making mistakes, and the crime will be added one more class?"

    "Did you just react?" Xiao Jingduo was helpless and had a headache, "Wu Junru picked this point to provoke it was intentional. Forget it, don't want to talk about her, hurry up and boil the water, then enter the room Take care of my mother, I'll go make medicine."

      Qiu Ju ran to the stove to work, but Xiao Jingduo stood there and didn't move for a long time.

    …

    Kneeling penalty is not worth mentioning to Xiao Jingduo. What really worries him is Zhao Xiulan's body.

    Zhao Xiulan was sentimental, vulnerable and crying. She was viciously stimulated by Wu Junru that day, and she was so angry that her body completely collapsed.

      Head-on hit. Not only did her husband marry another person, he even secretly poisoned her to make her disappear from this world. Zhao Xiulan was hit hard, and her heart dissipated all of a sudden, but Wu Junru still came to Zhao Xiulan to show off her power. Zhao Xiulan's not strong idea of ​​survival became weaker and weaker, and she even felt that living like this was far better than dying neatly.

    The sadness is greater than the death of the heart, Zhao Xiulan herself does not want to live anymore, what is the use of Xiao Jingduo reading more medical books and boiling more tonics? In order to take care of Zhao Xiulan, Xiao Jingduo and his wife resigned, stopped classes in the study, and focused on taking care of Zhao Xiulan, even aunt Xiao Su had no intention of welcoming her when she arrived in the capital.

    Qiu Ju brought the medicine in and saw Xiao Jingduo sitting in front of Zhao Xiulan's bed, flipping through the scroll left by Zhao Langzhong without looking up. Qiu Ju sighed and said in a low voice, "Lang Jun, the medicine is ready."

    "Leave it for now, mother just fell asleep, drink it when she wakes up."

    "Langjun, the auntie came yesterday, and now the old lady is holding a banquet in the Gao Shoutang to wash the dust, do you really want to take a look?"

     "No, my aunt and I haven't seen each other a few times, and we're not close at all, so there's no need to go."

    "But..." Qiu Ju bit her lip and said desperately, "Lang Jun, Mrs. Hou was also diagnosed with pregnancy yesterday, if she gives birth to a son in the future, you will no longer be Lord Hou's only son-in-law. When Mrs. Hou has a son by her side, she may be arrogant. You have to figure it out in advance! Mrs. aunt just came to Chang'an, and the old lady is very kind to Mrs. aunt and Miss Biao, Mr. Lang You might as well walk around with Miss Biao's family and let Miss Biao talk to you in front of the old lady, you have the support of the old lady, and only then can you beat the lady Hou!"

      "

    "Ah?" Qiu Ju widened her eyes and stared at Xiao Jingduo, obviously not understanding.

     

      She also took good care of Xiao Su. When Xiao Ying sent someone to pick up people in Zhuo County, she specially sent a box of belongings to Xiao Su so that she would not have to worry about her livelihood. Then, no matter how good the husband’s family is, it can’t compare to the Hou’s mansion. Xiao Ying’s box of treasures didn’t come in handy. It didn’t take long for Xiao Su to reconcile with her husband’s family. With her only daughter Cheng Huizhen not far away, they went to the Hou’s mansion. . Although Xiao Su said that she was reconciling with her husband-in-law, but no one could see that she disliked the poor and loved the rich. After her elder brother was enthroned as a marquis, she was not willing to waste time in the village, so she abandoned her husband's family and went to Beijing.

      Originally, he and his aunt Xiao Su were not familiar with each other, not to mention that it was a critical moment when Zhao Xiulan was seriously ill. Since Xiao Su did not come to visit her eldest sister-in-law, Xiao Jingduo also acted as a stranger in the Hou residence and ignored her completely.

    However, no matter how much effort Xiao Jingduo spends, it cannot stop Zhao Xiulan's condition from worsening. Zhao Xiulan begged for death wholeheartedly, and when several husbands came, they all shook their heads and sighed. Xiao Jingduo was furious, but what was even worse was that in December, an imperial decree came from the palace, and the sage appointed the eighth daughter of the Qinghe Cui family as the queen.

    The Wu family is a vassal of the Cui family. Wu Junru raised her eyebrows and talked about the relationship between the Wu family and the Cui family when she met everyone, so that no one in the house knew that the current queen and the Wu family were life friends.

    Xiao Jingduo wondered why the Cui family's daughter became the queen, and looking at what Rongke meant that day, the prince's family should fully oppose the Cui family's daughter entering the palace. But slowly he came to understand that the Cui Clan was threatening, and he was bound to win. Wu Junru was held by Rong Ke and the prince to treat the children of the predecessors harshly, and even planned to demote the heir to a concubine. Although these things have nothing to do with the daughter of the Cui family who is about to enter the palace, as long as the prince operates well, it can be said that the Cui family is completely Improper restraint, and even more secret guidance, you must know that the prince is also a descendant left by his predecessors, and even if Cui's daughter is to avoid suspicion, she has to give in a lot.

    And these outsiders will naturally not know, Wu Junru is still happy, and she does not know how much trouble she has caused Queen Cui.

    No matter how much water there is in Wu Junru's words, it is an indisputable fact that the Wu family has risen because of Cui's daughter. For this reason, both the masters and the servants in the Hou Mansion are scrambling to show affection to Wu Junru. . What happened at the same time as all this was Zhao Xiulan's increasingly serious illness.

    In April of the second year, Zhao Xiulan couldn't stand it anymore, she held Xiao Jingduo's hand that broke the medicine, and said angrily: "Duoer, don't worry about me, you give me the money Save it for reading. I'm really tired for my mother..."

      Just relax, don't think too much, it will always get better!"

    Zhao Xiulan shook her head, staring at the top of the tent with lost eyes: "I remember when I first saw him, my father was also decoction. He came to see his uncle for medical treatment, he did nothing It needs to be done, as long as you stand in the yard, people will never see others again..."

      Her voice was hoarse, but she still held Xiao Jingduo's hand tightly: "Duo'er, I want to see him one last time."

    Xiao Jingduo was silent for a long time, and finally whispered: "Okay."

    When Xiao Jingduo appeared at the door of the outer study, the maid almost thought she had read it wrong: "Mr.

    "Is the Marquis inside?"

    "In..." The maid nodded, then shouted, "Hey, you can't go in, in the study..."

    Xiao Jingduo passed the maid and pushed open the door directly. Xiao Ying sat in front of the desk, with a maid kneeling beside her, who seemed to be reporting the matter.

    Xiao Ying looked up, saw Xiao Jingduo, raised her eyebrows unexpectedly: "Why are you here?"

    "Mother is seriously ill and she wants to see you one last time."

    "Oh." Xiao Ying just nodded lightly, but nothing was touched. It seemed that Xiao Jingduo didn't mention it, he had to forget that there was such a person.

    The maid who was kneeling on the ground reminded displeasedly: "Master Hou, Madam has not slept well since she became pregnant, and is even weaker today. She and the little man in her belly are waiting for you."

    Xiao Ying stood up and heard the maid say that Wu Junru is uncomfortable, and quickly asked: "Why is it uncomfortable, can you ask your husband to see it? How is the fetus in the womb?"

    "Xiao Langjun is very energetic and will kick people these days."

    "Okay." Xiao Ying nodded, he looked at the maid, and then at Xiao Jingduo, as if hesitating where to go. Before he could make a decision, another maid hurried over: "Master Hou, Madam Wen is not well. She doesn't know what to eat today, and now she faints!"

    "Dizzy?" Xiao Ying suddenly felt worried, "What's going on?"

    After Wu Junru became pregnant, Xiao Ying naturally wanted to set up another concubine room. Wenzhu was the concubine Xiao Ying just bought back. Although Wen Zhu is the daughter of a commoner, her appearance is extremely outstanding. Now is the time to be favored, and even her maid is aggressive: "I don't know that slave maid, Marquis, go take a look."

    "Master Hou, Madam is still waiting for you!" Wu Junru's maid, seeing that she was cut off, also stood up and shouted.

      She is very ill. If you don't see her again, I'm afraid you won't have a chance. Father, this is her last wish."

    Hearing Xiao Jingduo calling his father, Xiao Ying was in a trance for a while. Xiao Ying hesitated for a moment, Wen Zhu's maid gave Xiao Jingduo a dissatisfied look, and said softly, "Master Hou!"

    "Forget it, I'll take a look at Wenzhu first. She is weak and can't stand the toss."

    Seeing that Xiao Ying followed Wen Zhu's people away, Wu Junru's maid scolded the vixen and quickly chased after him. "Master Hou, Madam is still pregnant..."

    Xiao Jingduo closed his eyes in despair, this is his father, ruthless and unfeeling. Xiao Ying is so handsome and extraordinary that even the princess of the Rong family, who is famous for her beauty, would like to love her, but he is so cold.

    At that moment, Xiao Jingduo wished that he had never left Zhuojun, and wished that he did not have this father.

    When Xiao Jingduo returned to Qingze Courtyard, Zhao Xiulan's eyes suddenly lit up. After realizing that there was no one else behind him, the light in Zhao Xiulan's eyes went out little by little. She pulled the corner of her mouth and smiled bitterly: "He really doesn't want to come..."

    "Auntie..." Xiao Jingduo wanted to comfort her, but didn't know where to start.

    "Forget it, I understand. A-Niang has lived a confused life and has done a lot of regrets. The only thing I am most fortunate is giving birth to you. Duoer, you want to Remember, you will always be A-Niang's pride."

    Zhao Xiulan held Xiao Jingduo's hand and seemed to fall into a previous hallucination: "When you were first born, you cried very loudly, and my mother thought at the time, I must give you a loud name, I have chosen and chosen, and I have set the name of Duo. Duo, Duo, the limit of orders, the voice of the military. With such a name, you can live a comfortable and smooth life in your life..."

    "Duo'er", Zhao Xiulan burst into tears, but she had a smile of anticipation on the corner of her mouth, "My Duo'er is so handsome and handsome, I don't know who will be lucky in the future Be my daughter-in-law. When the time comes, I must…”

    How about something?

    Xiao Jingduo wanted to ask his mother, but he didn't dare to say anything.

    He knelt there and didn't move for a long time.

    Qiu Ju ran in with hot water in her hand: "Madam, I've boiled hot water, so you're going to scald your body. Hey, when did you come back, Dalang-Jun, why don't you move? Move... ah, ma'am!"

    Qiu Ju screamed, and the water in her hand fell to the ground with a bang.
