Chapter 105:
The morning light is faint, and the morning dew gradually turns into mist.
The pear trees in the pear orchard have turned yellow in autumn, and the pears on the trees have been picked clean, leaving only the leaves swaying and dancing in the morning breeze. Looking from a distance, it's another year of bleakness.
A lonely figure stood under the tree, looking at the pear trees in the garden. He didn't know how long he stood there, the loneliness of his body was a bit colder than the desolation of the pear tree.
The white belly of the sky gradually brightened, and the sky once again illuminated the world. He remained motionless, letting the falling leaves fall on his hair and shoulders.
Footsteps were heard in the distance, and then approached.
The sound of footsteps came towards the pear garden, and the visitor went straight into the garden and stood silently behind him. The morning sun penetrated the treetops, forming circles of dazzling halos, and then sprinkled fragments of light on their faces.
"Master Kong Jian said that there are thousands of changes in the world, and sometimes the cause is the effect, and the effect is also the cause. It is not easy to understand the secrets of heaven, and all changes are in the heart."
As Wen Yu spoke, he turned around slowly.
Ye Ping looked up at him, seeing sadness in his dark eyes.
No one is a real body of ice, and no one can really break through the seven cleanses and six desires. Even a cold-blooded and ruthless evil **** will have moments of weakness and sadness.
"So when the eldest princess gave up revenge, she should have known your fate. As a mother, everyone hopes that her child will live a safe and happy life. You must be lonely and die old in the previous life, which is definitely not what she wants to see."
After a long silence, Wen Yu took her hand.
Her hands were very thin and soft, obviously weak and boneless, but seemed to be filled with endless power. It was this hand that pulled him out of the frozen place and made him experience the joys of the world.
If the previous life is the cause, then this life is the effect.
"You come from the same place as her. Have you ever thought that perhaps you came here because of her?"
Ye Ping really didn't think about it.
But it's not impossible.
"If so, why me?"
"It can't be anyone else but you."
What Wen Yu wanted to say was that he didn't want anyone but her.
Ye Ping laughed, there is nothing wrong with such a thing. If she never thought about it, she only knew that she was here, replaced the original Ye Ping, and changed the fate of the Ye family. During this period, she met this man, married this man, and will soon welcome their first child.
This is already the best result, so why bother with the so-called ifs.
"I said before that I came here for Xueniang. Now this sentence is not entirely true. I came here for her at first, but in the end it is for you."
When she said this, Wen Yu kept looking into her eyes.
Her eyes are no longer superficially infatuated, but almost ordinary calm. It was this calmness that was her real mood.
So this little liar told too many lies and tricked himself into it.
In this way, there is no escape.
…
Near noon, news came out from the palace that Concubine Wang Hui had been demoted to concubine.
This news came as no surprise. Concubine Wang Hui had already lost power when the Wang family fell. It would be fine if she lived in peace, but jumping out to harm others recklessly would be tantamount to judging her own glory.
The Wang family has collapsed, even the hope of a final comeback has been shattered, and the fate in the book has completely changed. Even if Wen Ruyu was taken back to the Duke's Mansion, Yu Ye Ping had nothing to fear.
That century-old glorious family of aristocratic families began to decline silently. Although there are not many masters in the mansion, they are divided into several factions. Mrs. Wen and Wen Ruyu belonged to the same faction. Old Mrs. Wen was an idiot, who sometimes leaned towards Princess Qingyang and at other times she leaned towards the girl Fang'er. On the contrary, Wen Guogong, who is called the Lord of a Mansion, is like a transparent person who hides from the gods.
With all efforts, neither Mrs. Wen nor Princess Qingyang privately wanted Fang'er's child to be born. Even Mrs. Wen, who hopes to have many children and grandchildren, is vacillating about this matter.
However, no matter whether it is the east wind crushing the west wind or the west wind crushing the east wind, the child in Fang'er's womb is safe and sound, as if someone has been secretly protecting it.
In Ye Ping's spare time, she listened to the little-known chicken and dog jumps in the Duke's Mansion as stories. It was also a pleasure to hear Sanxi's joyful expression.
The days slip by like flowing water, there are undercurrents surging in the calm days, and good news will come. The good news is that Wen Ruqin is pregnant, and Ye Ping sent a lot of things to the Xuanpinghou Mansion.
Autumn goes and winter comes, and spring comes again.
Wen Ruqin is also five months pregnant, and Ye Ping is about to give birth.
Just as her childbirth was approaching, Ye's mother and Ye's family came to give birth gifts, and Ye Ting also came. Ye Ting raised her for a few months, and her complexion improved a lot.
Mother Ye's spirit remained the same, and her voice was as full of energy as before. Hearing from her that life is getting better now, and she is more motivated to practice martial arts early to strengthen her body, in order to live longer and enjoy more wealth, Ye Ping sincerely feels that her grandmother is a person of great wisdom.
Ye's eyebrows and eyes were full of satisfaction, looking at the plump, noble and calm eldest daughter, she was full of joy in her eyes. As a mother, what I hope in my heart is naturally that everything goes well for my children. Now the two daughters are able to marry high, and everything goes well in her husband's family. The eldest son passed the children's examination last year and won the honor of a scholar, and the younger son looked extraordinary. In the words of my mother-in-law, the present day is a dream that can wake up with a smile.
The only worry is his second daughter. Tingniang is weak, and she doesn't know if her son will be able to do what she wants. Fortunately, the Song family was sensible, and the second son-in-law was considerate and caring, but no one urged him.
It's just that her mother's worry has been kept in her heart for a long time and it has become a worry. She is not good at talking about it in front of her mother-in-law, for fear that the old man will worry about it, and she dare not mention it in front of her second daughter, for fear that her second daughter will think too much. While the second daughter was visiting the garden of the Princess Mansion with her mother-in-law, she whispered something in Ye Ping's ear.
Ye Ping heard the words and said: "Tingniang's body is inherently weak, and it is not good to give birth prematurely. Mr. Song is a governor, and he knows this truth if he thinks about it. I heard the king of the county mention that Mr. Song did not want Tingniang to be too pregnant. Pregnant and have a baby early, I hope she can take care of her for a few more years, and it will not be too late to have a baby when her body is fit."
Hearing that it was the second son-in-law's intention, Mrs. Ye was very happy. She had kept this matter in her heart for a while, worrying that her second daughter would be rejected, and also worried that others would gossip.
"Grandpa Song is the one who loves people the most. Now I can feel relieved. I used to hear his name, and my heart skipped a beat. I didn't expect that he would be so cheerful. His smiling face all day long made me feel so happy. People are happy to see it."
The second son-in-law congratulates, where is the eldest son-in-law?
Ye Ping couldn't help but think, the so-called mother-in-law gets more and more satisfied with her son-in-law, it is probably impossible for such a thing to happen to Wen Yu. Not only does Wen Yu's reputation sound terrible, but he is also really not easy to get close to.
"Mother, you're so biased." She rubbed her belly and pretended to be angry, "You're talking about Mr. Song, isn't your Mr. Wen okay?
Ye Shi was taken aback for a moment, and then blushed.
"...My mother is not partial, of course the king of the county is also good."
"Then tell me, what's good about him?"
"He... he's good everywhere."
"Look, you can't tell. I knew you only had brother-in-law Song in your heart, and you only had face for our county king. I heard that brother-in-law Song pretended to be pitiful in front of you. Make clothes and make shoes and insoles for people.”
That treacherous Song Jinyuan, since Tingniang stopped giving him insoles, he has been eyeing his mother-in-law. Wearing the clothes and shoes made by her mother-in-law, she often showed off in front of Wen Yu.
Wen Yu never said this, but Ye Ping overheard it once.
Ye Shi was in a hurry, could she say that she was afraid of her eldest uncle?
With the appearance of the eldest uncle, she didn't even dare to talk too much, how could she dare to talk about family matters like the second uncle. The second son-in-law has moved out of the general's mansion and set up a new house, and Tingniang has such a temper, so of course she needs to take care of her more.
"... Is the county king angry?"
"It's not enough to be angry, but it's definitely uncomfortable in my heart. It's fine if we are far away, but he and brother-in-law Song are so close that we can't see each other when we look up. Think about it, would he be willing?"
Ye Shi is really anxious now, and it's not that she hasn't thought about it.
only…
"Then I... I will make two bodies for the county king next time?"
Ye Ping gave her a meaningful look.
There was remorse on her face, "It's my fault, it's because I didn't think carefully."
"I didn't put eye drops in front of my mother, nor did I want to be greedy for something. It's just that my county king has no mother since he was a child. Don't look at him with a cold face every day. In fact, he also wants to be loved in his heart."
Ye Ping's words made Ye Shi feel more guilty.
There was regret in her heart, why didn't she think of this. No matter how hard the county king is to get close, he is also his uncle. There is no reason why the second uncle has everything, but the eldest uncle has nothing.
Thinking like this, when she saw Wen Yu again, she finally had the courage to go up and talk to her. First, he asked Wen Yu if it was hard work on the job, and then told him to pay attention to his health.
Wen Yu answered and agreed.
As soon as he moved his eyes with a feeling, he met the narrow eyes of his princess.
Ye Ping's eyebrows and eyes were curved like crescent moons.
Doesn't it feel good to have love from the mother-in-law?
There was a faint smile in Wen Yu's eyes, and he knew it was the little girl's trick. He didn't care about it, he only cared about one person. If it wasn't for that guy Jinyuan who was too noisy and would block his eyes every time he got something, he wouldn't remember these little things at all.
But his wife cared for him, and that helped him. It turns out that there will be such a person in the world who will care more about your wronged and unfair than yourself.
…
After the Ye family came to give birth gifts, Wen Ruqin went back to her mother's house.
Ye Ping looked at her and Shen Ling again, and said in his heart that they are indeed the hero and heroine in the book, one is a fairy with a lost appearance, the other is a Zhilan Yushu, that is called a golden boy and jade girl, who can blind everyone's eyes.
How beautiful their child may be.
When the two sisters-in-law and sister-in-law met, they naturally had endless things to talk about.
While Wen Ruqin was sweet, she also had small complaints. Why is Mrs. Shen watching her drink soup every day, and Shen Ling watching her every day so that she doesn't move too much.
"Drinking soup is a good thing, but not moving is not a good thing. If you move a lot in life, it will be easier when you are born. Don't listen to what others say about giving birth to a big fat boy. The baby is too big for the mother's body. What a good thing, those women who have dystocia are nothing more than the fetus is too large or the fetal position is not correct."
Wen Ruqin's first child should be a son, and the next child should also be a son. Because at the end of the book, the heroine has given birth to two sons and has completely secured her position as the wife of the prince of the Hou Mansion.
"...Then, then I'll be more active in the future." Wen Ruqin's face turned pale, and she unconsciously cast an angry glance at Shen Ling who was standing outside the door talking to Wen Yu.
"Well, remember to move more."
"Second sister-in-law, don't worry, I must move too much. If the prince makes me lie down again, I will say that the second brother said it." Wen Ruqin blinked mischievously as she said.
Ye Ping couldn't help but smile, Xue Niang also learned badly.
Did you learn it from her?
Um.
Probably.
"Yes, let's just say it was your second brother who said it. With your second brother's big Buddha standing over him, Shizi Shen dare not not listen."
After Ye Ping said this, her face froze, and her body also froze.
Wen Yu has sharp eyes and ears, even if he is talking to Shen Ling, he can hear the conversation between them clearly. Even their breath, he could clearly feel it.
Almost at the moment when Ye Ping froze, he looked over.
"Pingniang!"
He rushed into the room and came to Ye Ping's side in a flash.
Ye Ping's forehead was sweating finely, and he forced out a smile. "Let's not panic, I should be giving birth."
