Chapter 42:

Gu Suier's skin is as clear as tender jade, and her eyes are so clear that she can see to the end. Such a woman can penetrate her heart by looking at her eyes.
She looks charming and has a true and pure temperament. When she opened her eyes in surprise and muttered, how could I embroider Jiang Zheng, Xiao Heng knew that she might have made a misunderstanding.
She is not a liar.
He frowned slightly and looked at her seriously. After a while, he finally said: "That veil embroidered with bamboo is the bamboo in the three paintings of plum, orchid and bamboo that I gave you. It was not embroidered by you. ?"
Gu Suier was stunned, she tilted her head and thought about it, and finally thought of it.
"The bamboo that San Ye gave me, I embroidered a veil, but I gave it to the big girl."
"Ajin?" Xiao Heng raised his eyebrows.
"Yeah!" Gu Suier sniffed and whispered: "The girl wanted me to help. She said she liked the veil I embroidered, and she thought it looked good. She wanted me to embroider another one for her. Of course I did it for her. Later, I picked it up and the eldest girl also liked the picture of Cuizhu, so I embroidered it according to the one."
"You never said about it."
Xiao Heng lowered his eyes and his voice was dull.
He will never forget how he felt when he saw that green bamboo embroidered handkerchief at Jiang Zheng, that was when a sharp bayonet stabbed into his chest, almost gasping in pain.
As a result, I now realize that it was my own misunderstanding.
"You don't like me embroidering things, so I didn't dare to tell you." Gu Suier rubbed her little nose, and said with some urn annoyance: "You don't even want to take a look at the shoes I embroidered for the tadpole, let alone mention the cui The bamboo embroidered handkerchief."
"It's not that I don't want to watch." Xiao Heng lowered his head in a rare vague voice: "It was just a little unhappy at the time."
"You think I actually embroidered a veil for Jiang Zheng, so you blame me?" Gu Suier pursed her mouth and said unhappily, "Is it your concubine, who would secretly embroider a veil for other men? "
She blinked and asked innocently, "How could I do this?"
"I—" Xiao Heng looked at her, speechless for a while, and said helplessly after a while, "I was wrong."
Gu Suier pursed her lips, turned her face away and looked at the sky.
Xiao Heng gently pursed her lips, then stretched out her hand to hold her hand, and said solemnly: "You are already weak, so you shouldn't take too much effort. From now on, it will be Xiao Jin. Don't embroider her. As for our children, from now on No shortage, or embroider after you give birth."
As for Xiao Jin actually took the Sui'er embroidered veil and sent it to Jiang Zheng, and today secretly ran to see Jiang Zheng, Xiao Heng didn't want to know what it meant.
He would simply tell the matter to the lady and ask the lady to deal with it himself.
Gu Suier hummed, softly speaking but stubbornly stubborn: "But I want to embroider, I want to embroider, why can't I embroider? I want to make some more clothes for the tadpoles!"
She just wanted to.
...
Xiao Heng was silent for a moment: "...If you really want to embroider, you can."
Gu Suier still feels unhappy: "You don't like the things I embroider."
Xiao Heng: "I like it."
Gu Suier: "A lie! You lie to me!"
Xiao Heng: "..."
Sighing, he asked her in a low voice: "Then why didn't I lie to you?"
He really didn't know how to tell her clearly about this.
After Gu Suier glanced at him, she lowered her eyes, and said slowly: "This is something in your heart, I don't know it, my mother seems to have said it, people's hearts are separated from the belly."
At this time, Xiao Heng really couldn't say a word.
He remembered that she seemed to be very innocent, and believed everyone, and everyone was a good person.
Why is it his turn? She actually said to him "The heart is separated from the belly".
"But..." Gu Suier pursed her lips and said sadly, "Or you can bark a few more times, then I'll believe it."
She only heard the cry just now, but she couldn't believe that it was made by him.
Especially when she turned around later, his serious expression, that noble and noble arrogance, who would have thought that he was barking past the moment before.
Xiao Heng looked at her without speaking.
Gu Suier pulled his hand: "Huh?"
Xiao Heng leaned forward with a black face and directly caught her.
Wang's voice swallowed her lips.
The "Wang" came into her mouth.
"Well……"
All her love and grievances disappeared, softly turning into a pool of water under the mouth of this big dog.
This time Gu Suier suddenly fell ill and then recovered somehow, but the old lady was not at ease after all, so she called Mother An over and interrogated them carefully.
Mother An had to say everything she knew.
After sighing, the old lady shook her head again and again: "I know that Ah Heng has always been an honest man. He has grown up so no one is around to serve him, and he doesn't love this person who seeks flowers and asks Liu. Naturally, he doesn't know the thoughts of his daughter's family. I don't even know about it, now it's almost causing trouble."
When the eldest lady heard this, she also said from the side: "It is said that Ah Heng worked in the palace with careful thoughts. Everyone in the court praised him as young and promising. The emperor also appreciated him very much, only in the matter of men and women. , I owe some points."
These words aroused the old lady's mind: "In fact, the last time the emperor came to our place, he mentioned it to me in private, saying that although the concubine in the room also had a body, he still had to pick him out in the end. A good one, a special reminder. I think of this, but I am also worried. A Heng is such a picky person, I almost tried it in Yanjingcheng, and he didn’t like any of them. You said where would I go to give it? Is he looking for a good one?"
The old lady thought for a moment, but suddenly said, "There is one, maybe you can try it."
The old lady was surprised: "Which one? You have a good candidate?"
The elder lady sighed: "Actually, it may not be a good candidate, but I thought, Ah Heng might like it."
Seeing her saying this, the old lady didn't care about the worry in her tone, and immediately said: "Don't care about any house, let's talk about it and listen."
The eldest lady said: "Mother, do you still remember the old house of Anguo Zuo."
The old lady was taken aback and murmured: "Zuojia?"
The eldest lady nodded: "Yes, I heard that there are still people in the fourth room of Anguo's family, just in the Lingnan area. Isn't it the emperor who wants to be fair to Anguo? The fourth room of the Zuo family wants to bring a group of children to Yanjing City to see the emperor. I also heard that there is a little granddaughter in the four rooms now, who is seventeen years old and has not been married yet, she looks very much like--"
She looked around, and finally lowered her voice: "Like that one."
The old lady frowned and was silent.
Speaking of the Prince Anguo, he was also a prominent minister at the time of the first emperor. The eldest daughter of the Prince Anguo, the eldest daughter of the Zuo family, had also made a marriage with the current sage. Only later was a major case of conspiracy in the rebellion that swept the country. I don't know how many important ministers in the DPRK, and Lord Anguo was also involved.
The current saint was just a humble prince at the time, unable to protect his fiancée's family, even this marriage.
The emperor divorced him and sentenced him to a felony in the Anguo Mansion.
At that time, the various scenarios could not be detailed. Fortunately, the Anguo government was only implicated. Several children in the mansion, including the surviving Sifang, and the eldest daughter of the eldest son, saved their lives, but were exiled to the bitter cold Liaobei. place.
More than 20 years have passed since this incident, and many people have forgotten it.
However, the emperor is a man of love and justice. Even though the eldest lady of the Anguo Gongfu has died, he still remembers that he wants to punish the Anguo Gongfu.
"What you said is, what you said is." The old man murmured: "As long as the emperor can rectify the grievances of Anguo Gongfu, this is not a good way. Identity is also worthy, and the emperor is also happy in his heart. It’s a good thing to be a kiss."
The eldest lady smiled: "Mother doesn't think it's okay for me to make a mess of ideas. I hope that they can be rehabilitated and do not seek to regain the previous title. As long as there is a job, this marriage can match."
The old lady nodded again and again: "I wondered, I don't know how much this four-bedroom granddaughter is like. If it really looks like, Ah Heng will always see a bit of face."
I asked the eldest lady for a moment: "When did they go to Beijing?"
The eldest lady respectfully said: "I heard it is next month."
next month……
The old lady smiled: "It's okay. Sui'er will give birth next month. It just so happens that Ah Heng is also thinking about going out and seeing the girl."
Coming out of the old lady's room, Mother An was actually terrified.
Think about it carefully. At that time, the little lady was sick. It was not like it. It was not high fever, wind-cold, or coughing. It seemed that the whole person was stupid. He didn’t know about personnel, and his eyes were straight. Of course, it seems that even people don't recognize it.
"Usually I feel a little stupid, but it is really stupid when I get sick." Madam An believed this time, and Gu Suier might be a little stupid.
But even if she knew, she didn't dare to talk to the old lady.
I went back to Tingzhuyuan for a while and asked about the maid, but it was the third master who was with the little lady in the room. She leaned over and listened carefully. There was some movement in it, not real, and occasionally the little lady hummed lowly. Hum, soft and delicate, it makes people's bones crisp.
She hurriedly left, and said to Amitabha in her heart, and sighed: "Creating evil, pay attention to the child in the belly!"
For a moment, I can't help but think, the little lady's illness, the third master really spoiled her with something, and the two of them mixed oil together.
"If it can last for such a long time, it would be better, and it will not be sick. Otherwise, the little lady will have that stupid disease again that day, I am afraid that it will be the Houmen compound and can't tolerate her, and in case of marrying a The ordinary madam goes home, the little madam must have a hard time!"
Mother An is the emperor who is not in a hurry, but the is sad and happy behind her back.
But Gu Suier didn't know about it, even if she knew, she still didn't know how to care about it.
Now that Gu Suier has no worries, she spends more dinner at night than usual.
Xiao Heng didn't go out anymore, just listening to Zhuyuan accompany Gu Suier, the two of them went out for a walk in the courtyard after dinner, and then rested earlier.
Gu Suier discovered that Xiao Heng was also injured when he was sleeping that night.
After she helped him to remove the robe, she found a wound wrapped in white silk on his arm, and there seemed to be blood oozing on it.
She bluffed: "Is this hurt?"
Xiao Heng's words are simple: "It's okay."
Gu Suier felt distressed and took her arm: "How come it's okay, so much blood has been shed? Why is it hurt?"
It hurts on his arm, but it hurts in her heart.
She was thinking of this man in her heart, and she didn't expect him to be any bad.
Xiao Heng raised his eyebrows and glanced at her: "Nothing. Something happened. Jiang Zheng was seriously injured. I just got a little skin injury on my arm. It will be fine in a few days."
Not many people knew about the emperor's assassination this time, and he didn't want to mention it to her, so he passed vaguely.
Gu Suier held her arm distressed, and she was still thinking about it when she went to bed at night, for fear that she would be pressed: "Why don't you stay away from me, I'm afraid of bumping."
Xiao Heng glanced at the cautious woman, not wanting to say that she was pressing the blood from the wound.
"By the way, what do you mean by tadpole?"
He vaguely guessed that the little tadpole was talking about the child in her stomach, but why it was called little tadpole.
"Little tadpole is him..." Gu Suier touched her stomach, soft and supple: "At the time in Gujiazhuang, my mother asked me to have an abortion and gave me abortion pills. I obviously had blood, but he didn't. I felt uncomfortable at the time, so I thought about not eating or drinking. Who knows that later, one day, he actually swept across my belly like a little tadpole..."
That feeling, extremely gentle, is the coziness and comfort of a little fish when he wags his tail freely.
It was this gentle and heart-wrenching glimpse that aroused her consciousness as a mother, and made her no longer fear and hate the tadpole, but pity.
Pity that he is too stupid, cast himself such a belly.
Xiao Heng was just asking casually, but she never thought she would talk about it.
She was thinking of the past and murmured, as if these were nothing at all, but when Xiao Heng heard it, she was stunned for a while and didn't say anything for a while.
He knew what she said, but it was naturally different when she said it.
