The Way of Favors

???? In the evening Xu Jin came back from the palace, and Fu Rong handed the stove over while telling him the good news.

Xu Jin was shocked.

He was of course not interested in Du Yuanzhou's affairs with Gu Niangzi, but Gu Niangzi experienced ups and downs. On that day, Ji Qingting took a knife to Ruyizhai and talked about the strange yin and yang. Since Du Yuanzhou can be the shopkeeper, he must be able to guess what happened to Gu Niangzi. , He didn't even care that Lady Gu had been fucked?

He was dumbfounded. Fu Rong thought he was too surprised. He went back to the couch and hugged Brother Zhu and talked to him: "I really didn't expect this. The third uncle is three years younger than Aunt Gu, but think about them. Living next to each other, Aunt Gu is smart, even if there is a scar on her face, she is still a beauty, not to mention the third uncle. It is normal for the two of them to walk together, but I haven't heard any wind before..."

People are refreshed at happy events, and Fu Rong is excited, talking about it.

Xu Jin had something in his heart, so he just looked at her with a smile.

After coaxing Brother Ju to sleep at night, the couple went back to the room. After getting into the bed, Fu Rong habitually leaned into Xu Jin’s arms and raised his head to discuss with him: "Master, I thought about it. I was not interested in doing business. Agree to start Ruyi Fast with Aunt Gu, mainly because they would definitely not be able to start without us, so this should be done. Now Ruyi Fast is getting better and better. I actually don’t care about anything. It’s very embarrassing to take the dividend again, just because Father Ruyizhai doesn’t like me too much, so I want to give the other half of Ruyizhai shares to my third uncle and aunt Gu. What do you think of them as a wedding gift?"

What Liu Ruyi wanted most was the development of Ruyizhai. Now Ruyizhai is getting better and better under the joint operation of Gu Niangzi Du Yuanzhou. Fu Rong really doesn't want to be involved. It’s okay to say that dividends are now shared. Everyone is a confidant who shares weal and woe. When Du Yuanzhou and Gu Niangzi give birth to a child, will their children covet the other half, or will they use her to use the reputation of Suwang Mansion to make some foxes. Thing?

Anyway, Fu Rong was not short of money, so he wanted to take advantage of this to clear up the financial relationship with Ru Yizhai, so as not to cause trouble for Xu Jin in the future.

"Nongnong is really generous, half of Ruyizhai, do you know how much silver it is worth?" Xu Jin asked jokingly.

Fu Rong stretched out his hand to touch his face, and smiled triumphantly: "I don't know how much it is. I have a prince to support me. I'm afraid I won't have any money?"

Xu Jin turned over to hold her down, and kissed her: "Since you are willing to pay, then give it away. My king earns money to support you."

Fu Rong guessed that he would not object, and raised his leg happily.

After a hearty day, Fu Rong went to sleep.

Xu Jin was very clear-headed, thinking of Du Yuanzhou's attitude towards Gu Niangzi, he couldn't help thinking.

If he was reborn in this life after Fu Rong married Xu Yan, would he still try his best to **** her to his side?

can you?

With a small lamp on the table beside the bed, Xu Jin looked at Fu Rong carefully.

Yes, he disliked her so much at the beginning of his life, but didn't he like her later?

Thinking of his contempt for her at the beginning of rebirth, Xu Jin finally knew how much he deceived himself.

In fact, he had been tempted in his previous life, but he didn’t want to admit that he, a prince, would be fond of a woman who had passed away. Perhaps he was afraid of being laughed at after passing it out, so he never showed it, but tried his best to **** her off. Just to force her to show her true temperament.

If he doesn't like her, why should he tell her that she can write to him before he leaves? After arriving in the northwest, every time a letter comes from Beijing, why should he secretly expect her to write in it? On those lonely nights in the army, why should he not help but rub his position beside him?

Thinking of this, Xu Jin was not surprised at Du Yuanzhou's choice.

Compared with real people, what are those?

To blame, I blamed myself for getting to know her late and for not being able to meet her before she was bullied or married by others.

And he was luckier than Du Yuanzhou, and he had a chance to come back again, allowing him to get all of her in this life, and it saved her from suffering again.

Xu Jin is content to kiss his sleeping wife.

Ms. Gu didn’t want to have a happy event, so the two set the date at the end of the twelfth lunar month. At this time, most shops in the capital were closed. Ruyizhai was no exception. As for what the shopkeeper and the owner of Ruyizhai did inside, outsiders didn’t know. Up.

The day before he went to Hexi, Joe came over.

Right now it was the busy time in the provinces, and Fu Rong didn't expect his mother would come over, when something happened at home.

Joe teased his grandson for a while and motioned to Qiao Xing to pass the box in her hand.

Fu Rong took it curiously, and found that there were three chess books inside, looking at the ancient books that seemed to be rare for ordinary people.

"Mother, this is?" she asked in confusion.

Qiao motioned the maids beside him to go out, took his daughter's hand and patted her, staring at her and said, "Do you really think that your father doesn't know what you are doing in private? He knows it very well, but he and your grandmother The family affairs are a bit complicated, and he is not suitable for acknowledging relatives there, so he pretended to be confused. Tomorrow is his happy day, these three chess books can be regarded as a little bit of your father’s elder brother. Needless to say, the dense It needs to be delivered in your name."

Only then did Fu Rong understand that his father had known Du Yuanzhou a long time ago. Or maybe, before she met Du Yuanzhou, his father knew that he had a cousin who opened a chess club in Beijing?

After all, they are blood relatives, so if you want to break it, you can't break it completely.

Since his father didn't want to clarify the relationship, Fu Rong added these three chess books to the gift list of the palace.

She also gave away the other half of Ruyi Zhai. Ms. Gu repeatedly refused, but finally refused, promising to give Fu Rong a set of jewelry every year. The better the jewelry, the longer it will take to make it. Therefore, a set of one year is definitely not stingy. If you replace it with the wife and wife next to you, you can get this promise, and you will be willing to make a few more Ruyizhai shops. .

A few days after drinking the wedding wine, it was New Year's Eve.

Xu Jin and Fu Rong still had to enter the palace.

Like ordinary people, the royal family also worships ancestors in the daytime and eats reunion dinner in the evening, but the etiquette is more complicated. The banquet was also held in two places. Emperor Jiahe led a group of children in front of them to drink and have fun, and the family members were all in Fengyi Palace.

The queen is in the main seat, Concubine Shu and Concubine Shu sit on the left, and the concubine Duan on the right is replaced by Concubine Li.

Fu couldn't bear to observe Li Fei secretly.

Compared with the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet, Li Fei has lost her initial cowardice at this time. She wears a concubine dress close to the red color. The ruby ​​on her head is shining under the light, and she no longer looks around. He was cautious and cowardly, but raised his chin slightly. Fu Rong knew that this concubine Li wanted to let everyone see that she was no longer the same peasant girl Guan Ying, but it was a pity that she lacked the temperament she had cultivated since she was a child. Her appearance, on the contrary, had a kind of impersonal effect.

And what she imitated was naturally the queen sitting in the middle.

Fu Rong was a little embarrassed.

This Li Fei didn't seem to be smart, and she didn't know whether the loss of her child in her previous life was artificial or natural disaster.

It's a pity that Fu Rong wouldn't be nosy. First, she has no relatives with Li Fei, and secondly, she is not so kind, and she would rather save the unrelated people at the risk of causing trouble.

"Sister-in-law, I asked my father for instructions. On the three-day Lantern Festival this year, the emperor allowed me to live in the mansion of the fourth sister-in-law. Do you think I will go to the fourteenth or the 16th?" After the banquet was over, the second princess rushed to Fu Rong excitedly, happily and authentically.

Concubine Roux followed and said helplessly: "Fuhui is playful, and his father is indulging her again, which is causing you trouble."

Fu Rong quite liked the second princess, and smiled and replied: "The empress is polite, my younger sister is charming and cute, I wish she would stay with us for a few more days, just to help me take care of my brother."

Concubine Rou touched her daughter's head, "Hurry up and choose a day, your sister-in-law has to hurry back to the house at night, there is no time to wait for you."

The second princess had chosen it a long time ago, "Go to sixteen, the moon of fifteen is sixteen round."

In fact, she had inquired in advance. Fu Chen was on duty from the first to the fifteenth day. The second half of the month was on holiday. The second princess knew that she might not be able to meet him when she was out of palace, but hope is better than no hope.

The little girl looked forward to returning to Fengyang Pavilion with her unknown secret.

Fu Rong and Concubine Shu returned to Zhaoning Palace to sit for a while, and Xu Jin soon came to pick her up. Fu Rong picked up his fat son, who had slept soundly, and said goodbye to his mother-in-law.

All those who were supposed to leave the palace went out, the guards closed the palace door tightly, and the palace fell silent again.

Fengyi Palace, the queen finally looked forward to Emperor Jiahe.

When Duan Fei was there, the queen of the first and third concubines was able to serve Emperor Jiahe for at least two days a month. Although the concubine Duan was young, she was not pleased by Emperor Jiahe. On the contrary, she had the least number of attendants among the four. The face is more attractive. Now it’s different. Li Fei is pregnant and not going to bed. The queen thought that Emperor Jiahe would come to her a few more times. Even if the two only talked and didn’t sleep, she felt comfortable in her heart. Unexpectedly, Emperor Jiahe didn’t have much Once in Fengyi Palace, all the extra opportunities were allocated to Concubine Shu and Concubine, or to stay with Concubine Li.

The queen felt uncomfortable.

But she didn't dare to show his face to Emperor Jiahe, and when Emperor Jiahe came, she served more diligently.

The couple was about to rest when there was a sudden noise outside.

The queen motioned to the mother next to him to deal with it, but Emperor Jiahe heard Xia Yin's voice, stopped the person, and said, "Bring in."

A sense of misfortune rose in the Queen's heart, and she secretly tightened her veil.

Xia Yin soon came in, and after seeing the ceremony, she knelt down and said: "The emperor, the maidservant has an uncomfortable stomach. The maidservant has sent someone to get a doctor. I remember that the emperor said that the emperor should notify the emperor if she has anything wrong, so..."

As soon as she spoke, Emperor Jiahe stood up and walked out while getting dressed.

Xia Yin quickly stopped talking, got up and followed.

When the queen returned to chase and gave away, Emperor Jiahe was already far away.

Looking at the figure of the lantern in front, the queen stood for a long time in the dark winter night before returning to the inner room with a calm face.

Two quarters later, the little **** from Chongzheng Hall came to pass a message. Emperor Jiahe could not come tonight...
