Chapter 74

Zhengqi hospital.

The vigorous wind is as fierce as the wind blowing from the plateau in the cold winter of northern China. There is no grass everywhere and the eyes are bleak.

Pei Shuo was dressed in a single coat and waved a long knife with both hands. He picked up the long knife almost one person high without any effort. He cut and swept it with a clear mind. There was no wind in the yard, but he forced it out, which was not inferior to the soldiers in the barracks.

He gave the enemy a final blow and ended. Sweat oozed from his forehead, and the fine sweat beads condensed into sweat the size of fish eyes. They passed through the dense eyebrow peaks, flowed through the deep eye sockets, and hung on the eyelashes. His chest fluctuated and gasped. Pei Shuo's grandfather hugged his fist and finished the demonstration.

"Good!" Pei Suiyin cheered“ There is no abandoned martial arts in Nanxun County, which is good, but you follow the rules and don't know how to be flexible. There are thousands of changes on the battlefield. There are empty moves, but you can't make it out with all your strength. Can't you hold back? Martial arts and articles are the same truth. If you understand them thoroughly, you will understand them. When you encounter the same situation, you will make them, so you must practice frequently. "

The Pei family followed the emperor to fight in the world and made great achievements. In the future, Pei Shuo must take the road of a military general whether he is a duke or a great achievement. Therefore, Pei Suiyin and Pei Zhengwen have high hopes for him and handed down the art of watching the family early.

Pei Shuo had a deep understanding of Grandpa's words. He had moves when he was free, but he couldn't make it out. He watched ah Yao get hurt. His reaction was not as good as a little girl.

"Thanks for Grandpa's instruction." He said seriously, "my grandson will practice more every day and live up to my grandfather's expectations."

Pei Suiyin was happy. Pei Shuo came back from Nanxun county. His person hasn't changed, but his heart to play off has been taken back. He is a little higher and looks steady: "on the third day of farewell, you should look at him with new eyes and tell Grandpa about your business in Nanxun County."

Open the door and take people to the room. The heat wave is paved, and the front chest and back are cold and hot.

Pei Suiyin is used to doing everything himself. He doesn't like to be served by servant girls. When he enters the house, he throws peishuo a scarf to wipe his sweat.

Wipe the sweat off his face, pour tea for Pei Suiyin, sort out what happened to him in Nanxun County, and pick up some key things. Pei Suiyin has actually heard all about it. After listening to his grandson's explanation, he doesn't go in and out. He closes his eyes and sits upright and nods from time to time. When he hears him say that he was in the LV family, he hurt his shoulder and hurt member Lv. Suddenly he lifts his eyelids. He hates iron and doesn't become steel: "confused! There are thousands of ways to expose the man's evil deeds, but you choose the most inferior one to kill 10000 enemies and hurt 8000 yourself. Your plan in front is good. Why are you so confused in the back? Let Pei wear or Peibu lead the Yamen to the backyard and leave clues to dig a pit. What's behind is water to qucheng. "

"But you're out of your mind. When you show up, you just take one of the little girls to testify. You have to stab yourself on the shoulder! Does it hurt? "

Pei Shuo pursed his lips and whispered, "it hurts..."

Pei Suiyin's face softened slightly, got up and went to the inner room to get a box of ointment: "you know the pain, but you're smart. You didn't hurt your muscles and bones. If you can lift the big knife, it means that the wound is almost good. Take it back to wipe the wound. You'll get the knife for the woman before you go to the battlefield!"

Thinking of Pei Yang's letter, Pei Suiyin's impression of Jiang Yao fell three feet, and he was distressed again. His grandson has a bright and fair future. How can he be controlled by a suckling girl? He is only ten years old and has been sad and beautiful. What can he do in the future? If the enemy catches his wife and concubine alive and coerces him to kill himself before the battle, this reaction is not impossible.

Pei Suiyin frowned and frowned. Pei Shuo was worried. At that time, he patronized his ideas and did not take into account the reaction of his grandfather and father after they knew about it.

This is terrible. Before ah Yao appeared in front of them, her impression was greatly reduced.

"Yes, my grandson knows his mistake." It's urgent to calm the old man's anger first. He still has something to discuss with his grandfather, but now is not a good time to mention it.

Pei Suiyin waved: "I've been tired all the way. After seeing Cui, I came to me to play a set of knife skills. You're tired. Go back and have a good rest. It's time to have dinner."

"Yes."

Honeysuckle had arranged for people to burn water. Pei Shuo bathed and straightened up. When he came out, he saw the golden afterglow shining on the wall through the west window, plated with a layer of gold.

Cui mengzhang sent a girl to invite him to the side hall for dinner.

When he arrived, his third brother Pei Xingning sat quietly at the table. Before grandpa arrived, the servant girl sent cold dishes. Cui mengzhang saw Pei Shuo arrived. Counting the time, his father-in-law should let the servant girl start cooking soon.

Patting cucumber, mixed with mustard sauce and a small plate of preserved eggs cut into small petals, Pei Xinning was greedy. Yu Guang caught a glimpse of Pei Shuo coming and called timidly, "big brother."

Pei Shuo responded. Pei Xingning is 9 years old and three years younger than him. Because Pei Xingning is taken by Aunt Feng, he is quiet enough to echo his name. Apart from meeting at the dinner table, he is not together at other times. The relationship between the two brothers is flat. Compared with him, Pei Xingning seems to prefer to stick to Pei Xingzhi. He makes friends with Xingzhi and doesn't pay much attention to his common brother.

Pei Suiyin walked up and took his seat.

The dishes are all good.

"If the eldest doesn't come back for dinner, the second family will get together in the yard. We'll eat by ourselves. You can clip everything you like. Cui, you don't have to work hard to give me cloth dishes. Sit back." Pei Suiyin refused Cui mengzhang's cooking and asked her to sit back for dinner.

Pei's family is small in size and has few aunts. Pei Suiyin was born a rough man. He attaches importance to education and trains two sons. The eldest brother is as bright as a torch and follows the right person to lead the family to prosperity. The eldest brother and the second family also attach importance to training the next generation, especially the second family. Knowing that Pei Xingzhi can't take the road of merit, they train in the direction of civil servants, even if they can't take the imperial examination, You can also seek a civil service through family shadow.

But in the final analysis, the Pei family does not have the details of the aristocratic family.

The men's and women's table sharing set hasn't worked in Pei's house yet.

In Mr. Pei's words, we have more men than women. We have two tables, and then the eldest daughter-in-law and the second daughter-in-law sit at the same table. It's cold and quiet, while their six eldest masters are crowded at the same table to eat. It's better to just rush all the women back to the yard to eat. What a shame.

When the meal was almost eaten, the servant girl came up with a copper pot with a strange shape.

"That's..." Pei Suiyin didn't know what he meant. Why are there dishes now.

"Shuo'er came back from Nanxun county. I pity him for his journey, so I decided to let the cook stew a pot of mutton soup. It's cold now. Drink mutton soup to warm up. Dad, you'll have another bowl later. Xingning, you're still young and shouldn't make too much. You can only drink one bowl. Don't be greedy. "

Still didn't mention Pei Shuo.

Pei Suiyin looked at Cui mengzhang more, and Pei Xingning agreed.

As soon as the lid of the copper pot was lifted, the smell of mutton turned Cui mengzhang's stomach upside down. An inexplicable nausea rushed down her throat. She ran out and retched by holding the post.

“……”

Everyone's eyes focused on Cui mengzhang.

The servant girl in charge of opening the cover was stunned in place. A few seconds later, she suddenly knelt down.

Cui mengzhang took out his handkerchief and covered his mouth. When she smelled the smell of mutton, she had a headache and nausea. She hated it in her heart. She didn't spit out anything. She wiped her mouth and looked back to see one big, two small and six pairs of eyes staring at her, as well as the servant girl who served the dishes shivering.

"Dad, I'm sorry." Cui mengzhang said, and then walked back.

The red charcoal fire burns the bottom of the pot and maintains the temperature of the mutton soup on the copper stove. If it is cold, the oil floating on the mutton soup will gather together and slowly turn into white grease blocks to cover the soup and mutton. The mutton soup was not cold, but it kept smelling. Cui mengzhang was a little closer, and his head was dizzy with it.

One step further, he was black and fainted to the ground. Before he was unconscious, he thought that Pei Shuo was really her nemesis. Nothing good happened when he met him.

"Help your wife up!"

Pei Suiyin shouted. Jianlan took the lead to help her up and shouted to her, "madam, madam, wake up!"

Kneeling on the floor, the servant girl got up and forgot to plead guilty. She rushed out, "old man, I'm looking for a doctor!"

"Help people back." Pei Suiyin guessed at her reaction and asked Jianlan and the nearby servant girls to help people back to the room.

Halfway through the meal, Pei Shuo and Pei Xingning were interrupted. They looked at their distant figure.

Pei Xingning didn't know what to do. He looked at Pei Shuo. "Brother, what should we do now... I'm not full yet."

"Then continue to eat. We can't help in the past. First fill our stomach and then go there. We can't waste the soup prepared by our wife." Pei Shuo sat down and scooped himself a bowl of soup. It was really warm to his stomach.

Pei Xingning was restless. He didn't want to eat until he ate a few mouthfuls. He and aunt Feng had to rely on Cui mengzhang to live. If she had something wrong, could she change a new aunt? So he said to Pei Shuo, "brother, we're ready. Let's hurry over."

Cui mengzhang fainted and made Pei's house turn upside down.

Aunt Feng knew that she would rush there immediately. She had the same idea as Pei Xingning. If Cui suddenly fell ill, the middle feed of Pei's house might fall into the hands of Li in the second room. People are selfish. Li has always looked down on her. At that time, where can she live a good life? I hope it's not a serious illness.

Aunt Feng picked up her skirt and ran away, praying secretly in her heart.

The two bedrooms gather for the happiness of their family. Pei Zhengshan, Li Shi and peixingzhi form a table with four dishes and one soup. They are all big dishes, roast lamb legs, roast venison, Chinese cabbage balls in soup, braised carp in brown sauce and a tripod of mutton soup.

The family were having a good chat. The servant girl hurried to report that the eldest lady was ill and unconscious.

Li Shi put down his chopsticks: "how can a good person be bad? Don't talk nonsense. I won't tear your mouth."

"The second lady spared her life. I heard it was mutton soup. Not long after it was served on the table, the eldest lady fainted." The slave and maid who came to report were not the people on the scene. At that time, the people in the pian hall gathered in Cui mengzhang's yard. They just spread false information, which led to a misunderstanding.

It was mutton soup. The three of them all looked at the mutton soup whose tripod had not been uncovered.

"Put it here first. Maybe the cook caught what the big brother's enemy did?" Pei Zhengshan asked. The servant girl also asked three questions. When the wind blew a little, she hurried to report. Except Cui mengzhang fainted, she didn't listen carefully.

Pei Zhengshan pointed to the servant girl and said, "you! How should I say you! "

Li Shi put down his chopsticks and said, "I'll go there and have a look at Cui Shi."

"Well, you hurry over."

Cui mengzhang woke up and saw her own red curtain first. She glanced over and saw a honest woman. She knew he Niang, the medical woman of he Jitang in the east of the city. She had been familiar with medical books since childhood and had excellent medical skills. She knew the woman's symptoms like the back of her hand and often went in and out of the backyard of dignitaries.

Her wrist was placed on a soft cloth cushion, and he Niang pressed her three fingers on her pulse and moved it gently.

Soon she stopped, comforted Cui mengzhang and said, "Congratulations, madam, you have been healthy for three months."

“……”

She's been in shape for three months?

She already has Pei Zhengwen's child in her stomach?

Cui mengzhang's mind was blank, but his hand had put on his belly and stroked back and forth.

When he Niang stepped out, Pei Suiyin asked, "how's my daughter-in-law?"

He Niang looked happy and blessed Pei Suiyin: "Congratulations, old master, your family is about to have a baby. My wife has been pregnant for three months. We should pay attention to all aspects of diet next."

Pei Shuo's face was expressionless, forming a strong contrast with PEI Suiyin's joy. Pei Suiyin patted his thigh: "great! Come, reward! "

Cui mengzhang in the room heard the voice of dialogue from outside. It was far away, like ethereal fairy music in the air. He couldn't find a sense of reality“ Jianlan, Jianlan, pinch me quickly. Am I dreaming? "

Jianlan wept with joy and helped Cui mengzhang sit up: "madam, we didn't dream. You are already a double body man. You have a young master in your stomach!"

Cui mengzhang repeatedly stroked his flat abdomen. He couldn't believe it. There was a little life hidden inside.

She is pregnant in her stomach. In seven months, he will meet the world.

When Li Shuangyu came, he heard the news that Cui mengzhang was pregnant. It seemed that he had been struck by thunder. He couldn't recover for a long time and turned back numbly.

The next day, Pei Zhengwen came back from the military camp. Cui mengzhang changed his clothes for him with a smile and reported the good news to him playfully.

"Husband, do you like boys or girls?"

"Anything." After waiting for a long time, he got Pei Zhengwen's answer. Cui mengzhang was inevitably disappointed and soon adjusted his state of mind. "I hope it's a girl. There are many boys in our family, either skinny or quiet. Having a daughter can get the love of several brothers, don't you think?"

"Yes."

Cui mengzhang was unhappy. After talking for a long time, did he like boys or girls, or did he not like that she was pregnant?
