"Dad, why don't you go see your sister today?"
While having breakfast, when he learned that his father was not going to Prince Jing’s Mansion today, Axun asked a little anxiously, saying that he wanted his father to take him with him.
"Dad hasn't been with the fourth sister for a long time. I'll accompany her today." Chu Qing picked up a small bun with meat filling for her youngest son and looked at him.
Ah Xun was only seven years old and had any thoughts on his face. When he learned that his father was going to go out with his fourth sister whom he didn't like, the little guy pouted and his long eyelashes drooped. He was disappointed that his father could not accompany him out, but also felt that his father seemed to like his fourth sister more than his sister.
Chu Qing looked at it, and Yingting's eyebrows frowned.
A Xun will be the owner of the Marquis' Mansion in the future. He will have to take care of all the matters of the Marquis' Mansion. He will not only unite other brothers to maintain the reputation and status of the Marquis' Mansion in Yunyang, but also help the sisters whom the brothers married outside the family. The eldest daughter is taken care of by Cheng Yu and is also A Xun's elder sister. Chu Qing doesn't need to worry too much, but A Xun's relationship with his sister...
The eldest son Chu Hong is as gentle as jade. He knew to love his younger brother since he was a child. A Xun did not get close to him and did not dislike him. After his two years of advice, A Xun would say hello sensible when he saw his brother. Chu Qing believed that his two sons would be able to live in harmony in the future, at least not infighting. But his younger daughter Chu Man had plotted against his eldest daughter in front of A Xun, but A Xun was very revengeful. In addition, his younger daughter never took the initiative to join his legitimate sister and brother, so A Xun has always maintained hostility towards this sister.
If Ah Xun had been like this, even if he found a good family for his younger daughter now, and he would leave when he grows old in the future, his son would be the head of the family. Will the younger daughter's family gradually treat her younger daughter lightly because her son doesn't like the concubine's sister?
So Chu Qing knew that his son was unhappy and had to tell him his arrangements so that he could use this to teach him the truth.
After using the meal, Chu Qing called out to his youngest son who was about to leave with his head hanging down and took him to the study.
"Axun, I know you don't like your fourth sister, but remember that she is also my daughter. She is like you. You have my blood in your body and the blood of our Chu family." Chu Qing looked at her son who was not as tall as him and said earnestly, "Dad don't force you to like your fourth sister, but you must remember that she is the daughter of our Chu family. When she gets married in the future, you must first think of her representing the girl of our Chu family. If she is bullied, you must help get it back. If she bullies others, you can scold her privately. On the contrary, you have to maintain the majesty of our Yunyang Marquis Mansion. Do you understand?"
Ah Xun seemed to understand but didn't understand, and looked straight at him.
Chu Qing sighed, and didn't expect the child to understand immediately. First, explain what happened today, "I have accompanied you to see your sister in the last few times. If you don't go today, you will be unhappy. Then think about your fourth sister, Dad has never accompanied her. Does she miss me very much?"
Ah Xun understood the truth of this, lowered his head and quietly snatched the embroidery case on his clothes with his little hand, "Brother Yuan hasn't seen his father for a long time. If you don't go, what should he do if he cries?"
This counterattack was so strong that Chu Qing really got in his heart. Her daughter thought her fat grandson was naughty and active, so Chu Qing liked to accompany her grandson. She thought she would have a pair of concubines and daughters? If she had known that her wife would have had such a quarrel with Aunt Xia, she would have been so confused that she prefers her sensible young daughter because of her disobedient eldest daughter. If she had known everything that happened later, Chu Qing would never have accepted Aunt Xia, but there was no medicine for regret in the world. If he had given birth to a polite son and a daughter, he would have to be responsible for them.
Besides, he went out today for another reason.
"A Xun explained to Brother Yuan for me, saying that my father is busy with things today and cannot see him." Chu Qing smiled and touched his son's head.
When Ah Xun heard that his father asked him to lie to his nephew for the sake of the fourth sister, he turned around and ran to the door of the study room and turned around, and snorted: "Dad and sister both taught me not to lie. After a while, when I saw my sister, I said that my father had gone out to play with the fourth sister. I would say the same to Brother Yuan!"
"Come back!" The son was disobedient, and Chu Qing was angry and shouted with glaring and stared at him.
Ah Xun turned around and ran away, but he was still dissatisfied with his father going to accompany others.
Chu Qing chased her out, and as soon as she went out, she saw her little daughter coming over in a pretty look. She saw Ah Xun running wildly to the side of the corridor, looking to one side, Ah Xun also ran past the concubine indifferently. After running for a distance, she heard the concubine's sweet call for dad and looked back, as if she wanted to see how he responded...
Chu Qing was helpless and ignored her daughter for the time being. When Ah Xun walked away, he smiled and asked his youngest daughter who had arrived in front of him, "Why did Manman come here so early?"
The fifteen-year-old Chu Man's appearance inherited the advantages of Chu Qing and Aunt Xia. In terms of beauty, she is comparable to Chu Rong, but she is a concubine daughter. She has been stuck at home and doesn't like to go out for the past few years, so she has no reputation in the capital. After Chu Qing discussed the marriage with her last time, Chu Man also began to plan for herself. It is rare that her father promised to take her out for a walk today, so of course she must prepare well.
She is wearing a white lace with lotus embroidered with water, white magnolia beads on her head, and a pair of red agate-like pendants with thin white earlobes. She not only looks dignified and elegant, but also has a bit more noble. She looks fresh and watery, suitable for going out in midsummer.
"I miss my dad." Chu Man acted coquettishly and looked at her dad with moist eyes, without hiding her complaints. "Since my sister gave birth to Brother Yuan, my dad wanted to run there every day. She only had grandchildren in her eyes. How could she remember my daughter?"
"Just talk nonsense, I forgot you. Who bought the hairpin on your head for you?" Chu Qing pointed at the little girl's head.
"Dad, don't mess up my hair." Chu Man retreated in disgust.
When the little girl was dodging, her dress flew and her figure was graceful. Chu Qing looked at it and felt worried again. When her daughter was old and she didn't want to marry far away, she sent Jiang Sheng back to Liaodong. However, in the capital, he really didn't think of a suitable family. In addition to being in front of him, the youngest daughter flinched inwardly when she went out. The wife of a wealthy family was afraid that she would not like her as a daughter-in-law. She really liked him. It was probably to please him, so that she could be really good to her daughter? Let her down her life experience, but she was afraid that her daughter would misunderstand him as a partial person.
"Let's go, it's cool now. Let's go out early and come back early." Thinking of today's important business, Chu Qing put aside his thoughts on his daughter's marriage and left.
Chu Man followed his father happily.
The carriage outside the Marquis's mansion was ready. Chu Qing asked his daughter to take the carriage. He rode a horse and followed him. When he turned around, he saw someone at the entrance of the alley and quickly leaned back.
Chu Qing sneered.
Princess Shouan has always sent people to pay attention to his movements. Chu Qing has beaten several times. The old woman didn't care and continued to send people. Chu Qing was too lazy to pay attention to it. She looked for various opportunities to come over and he sarcastically once. Last year, the old woman was severely humiliated by him once, and finally withdrew her. A few days ago, the subordinates told him that the old woman was restless again. Chu Qing admired the old woman's firm nature and regained her morale so quickly. Yesterday, she heard her son-in-law talk about her. She realized that the old woman had another purpose this time.
She didn't want to hook him up, but wanted to find an opportunity to humiliate him.
Chu Qing has been running to her daughter recently and has few social engagements. Now that he knows that the old woman is waiting for him, he will give her a chance.
He was able to become the Minister of War because of his ability, not face. He did not care about praise from others, nor did he care about slander and criticism. If an old woman wanted to see his jokes, he showed her. The earlier she laughed, the earlier she died. Why would he not do such a good thing once and for all?
The eldest princess's mansion.
Princess Shou'an carefully drew a scar on Zhao Kui last night, and then compensated Zhao Kui for some time. She got up late in the morning and woke up brightly. She was a free and comfortable eldest princess with no errands and was not in a hurry to get up. She lay on Zhao Kui to see the new scar on his face. It was dark last night and she couldn't enjoy watching it with the light. How could she see clearly during the day?
After watching the kiss for a while, the two of them were getting tired of it, and the maid outside reported something.
Princess Shouan pushed the man who was so loud and thrilling with one finger, pulled up the quilt to cover herself, and called someone in. She was just making trouble, not thinking about being serious. No matter how happy that matter is, she had to be more restrained. The man was stupid and not afraid of losing money. Her body was precious, so she had to keep it well.
The maid bowed her head and walked in, walked to the screen and stopped, looked at the bed properly, and replied softly: "Princess, Hou Yunyang has accompanied the fourth girl of the Chu family to visit the jewelry building."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Kui, the hand buried in Princess Shou'an, became honest and raised his head uneasy. The word Chu Qing was well-known to him. The man in black was Chu Qing's enemy, and he took him to the capital to humiliate Chu Qing with the princess's hand.
Princess Shouan glanced at Zhao Kui's expression, smiled, stroked his face and said, "Do you know he is? Do you want to see what he looks like?" No one is a fool. When Zhao Kui was studying the rules in Zhuangzi, he must have heard of her grudges with Chu Qing.
Zhao Kui actually didn't want to see the famous general, for fear that the other party would take his life in anger, but Chu Qing didn't want it. He was disobedient, and neither the man in black nor the Princess Shouan would spare him, so he had to bite the bullet and nod.
Princess Shouan knew what he was afraid of, so she lowered her head and kissed his slightly dark face, and promised softly: "Don't worry, you are my person, I will never hurt you at all."
She wanted him to live a long life, and she wanted to take him to Chu Qing often, so that the dignified Marquis of Yunyang became a laughing stock in the entire capital.
"Get up, I haven't added new jewelry for a long time. Let's go for a walk today. Come with me and help me learn more." After waiting for so long, I finally waited for Chu Qing to go to the lively place. Princess Shou'an was afraid that Chu Qing would slip away from her later, so she sat up immediately.
She only had a pajama as thin as a cicada wing. Zhao Kui looked at the faintly snowy skin and became curious about Chu Qing for the first time. A beautiful woman like Princess Shou'an and a noble identity. What kind of person is Hou Chu Qing in Yunyang? He doesn't even want the beauty who took the initiative to deliver it to her door? So he forced Princess Shou'an to be like this?
He then stood up, looking at the tall and handsome self in the mirror while dressing, and couldn't help but straighten his chest.
