Rebirth of the High Gate Mistress

Chapter 300 Brother Xuan who disrupts the situation

Jingshu and Xu Wanning helped the old lady out of Xianglin Garden, and the old lady invited her two daughters-in-law to Anxi Hall.

The three of them sat down, and the old lady ordered someone to make some good tea. Then she sighed to the two grandsons-in-law and said, "Yesterday I asked a matchmaker to go to Yang's house to talk about the marriage for Brother Yu. Mrs. Wang replied to me in the morning."

Glancing at the old lady's gloomy face, Xu Wanning asked, "I'm not willing to do it, am I?"

The old lady nodded helplessly and muttered: "What do you think of Brother Yu's marriage? Hey! I'm really worried."

Li Yu was born handsome and well-known, and now he was involved in politics as an official in the Ministry of Justice. Such conditions were undoubtedly good in Beijing, but because of his embarrassing background and his relationship with the eldest princess, the marriage matter was Just miss the mark every time.

Seeing that the two grandsons-in-law were also looking sad, the old lady couldn't help but speak for the youngest great-grandson: "Brother Yu, although this child has a bit of a paranoid temper, he has been guided by you all these years, and now he has it again." With his fame and errands, I see that this child's mood is no longer what it used to be. Although he is just a concubine, he can't even be called a wife."

Xu Wanning sighed and spoke quickly: "It's okay to be a commoner, but no one in the capital knows the weight of the eldest princess, and which powerful family is willing to get into this bad luck."

This is the truth. Emperor Ming respected the eldest princess so much, and the eldest princess had a falling out with the Duke of Zhen because of the affairs of her estranged wife. No official family would dare to marry their daughter to Li Yu in such a big way.

As soon as Xu Wanning said these words, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law sighed.

 Finally, the old lady spoke: "How about finding a daughter from a merchant family? If she is well-educated and sensible, I will admit it."

After hearing this, Xu Wanning replied: "In my opinion, this is the only way to settle for the next best thing. My fourth brother has already reached the age of marrying a wife. He has been wasting his time like this. I don't know how to talk about it outside."

 The old lady nodded when she heard this, and then looked at her grandson-in-law again, wanting to seek Jingshu's opinion.

Jingshu knew that Li Yu was paranoid and sensitive. There were many concubine brothers in the clan, so he must have thought too much about marrying a merchant's daughter to him.

Jingshu is the matron of the house. Only when the house is peaceful can the house be safe and smooth. She has to think more carefully about some things.

When she saw the old lady looking at her, she slowly replied: "It would not be inappropriate to marry my fourth brother to the daughter of a merchant from the capital, but I'm afraid he doesn't want to, so it's better to ask his opinion first. "

After hearing what her grandson-in-law said, the old lady suddenly came over and said quickly: "This matter must be discussed with Brother Yu."

Xu Wanning waved her hands and said: "My elders have always made the decision on marriages, so there is no reason to discuss it with the younger ones. Besides, with the temperament of my fourth brother, if this matter were to be known to him, he would definitely be unwilling to do so."

Jingshu replied to Xu Wanning: "If he is not willing, we can just think of other ways. If there is no suitable one in Beijing, it is not impossible to go to Fuwai to look for it."

The old lady knew that Jingshu was a considerate person and had always trusted her the most. After hearing this, the old lady felt a little at ease and said, "Let's just take what Shu'er said. Let's discuss it with that little **** first and see what he means. "

After saying that, the old lady said to Jing Shu in a serious tone: "I see that Brother Yu has always respected Shu'er, so I'd like to trouble you to have a good talk with him. I guess you are the only one in this house, and he can still listen to it." point."

As the head of the house, these things are inevitable, so Jingshu naturally has no reason to refuse, so she agrees.

Jingshu and Xu Wanning chatted with the old lady for a while before leaving Anxi Hall and each returned to their own courtyard.

When Jingshu returned to Qingfeng Garden, it was already dark. Li Ling was playing with Sister Bao on the couch. Jingshu looked around the room and asked, "Where is my brother?"

Li Ling replied: "The wet nurse went to Xiyuan to play with brother Ping." Jingshu asked casually: "Why didn't you take sister there with you? There are more children, so we have more fun."

“It’s already dark, how can I go out? What should I do if I’m scared?” As he said that, Li Ling picked up his daughter and gave her a rare kiss.

Jingshu glanced at her eccentric father, sighed slightly, and went to the inner room to change her clothes.

After dinner, the wet nurse came back with brother Xuan in her arms. Jingshu didn't see her son for most of the day, so she took him and held him in her arms, and went to the inner bed to coax him.

After a while, Li Ling followed her into the inner room with her daughter in her arms. He smiled and asked Jing Shu, "Let my daughter sleep with us today."

Jingshu glared at Li Ling and said, "Didn't my daughter sleep here yesterday? Today it's my son's turn."

Li Ling frowned slightly and pretended to be confused: "Did my daughter sleep here yesterday? How do I remember that she slept with the wet nurse yesterday?"

Jingshu was too lazy to talk to this unprincipled husband. She took her daughter and carried her outside. After explaining to the wet nurse, she returned to the inner room and hugged her son to bed.

Children naturally like to cling to their parents. Brother Xuan saw his mother sleeping with him. The little guy was crawling around Jingshu's side lively. He would hold his mother's arm and bite her, and then he would lean against her mother again. A kiss on the face brings great joy.

After playing for a long time, the little guy finally showed his tiredness.

Li Ling breathed a long sigh of relief and suggested: "Put him on the crib and sleep."

Jingshu hugged her son and made a silencing gesture toward Li Ling. She patted her son gently and hummed a lullaby, coaxing her son into sleep.

Li Ling got out of bed and put out the candle. After getting into bed, he touched his wife's weak, boneless hand through his son. After touching it, he got up again. This time, he did not ask for his wife's opinion and directly slept on her body. He picked up his son and put him on the crib.

Jingshu scolded helplessly in a low voice: "Every time my son sleeps here, you make a fuss, you..."

Jingshu was chattering and complaining about Li Ling, so Li Ling leaned over and suppressed her.

Jingshu pushed him and said, "Didn't you just come here during the day in the car? Why isn't it enough?"

 Li Ling's lips blocked his wife's mouth, and his big hands moved skillfully.

As soon as Li Ling entered the alley, Brother Xuan, who was sent to a small bed by his eccentric father, started crying at the top of his lungs.

Jingshu quickly pushed Li Ling away, quickly put on her clothes and got off the ground. She picked up her son and coaxed her again and again. Under her mother's gentle soothing, the little boy was so aggrieved that he finally calmed down and held her tightly with her little hands. Holding Jingshu's clothes, she buried herself in her mother's arms and fell asleep again.

Jingshu patted Li Ling who was lying on the bed. Li Ling reluctantly moved in. Jingshu gently placed her son beside her and gently hugged him with her hands to let him sleep peacefully.

Li Ling was so angry that he muttered to himself with a stern face: "You brat, you really know how to pick the right time to cause trouble."
