Painting

On the morning of March fifteen, the morning mist is shrouded in the morning.

Gu Jinzhi thought that the fog dissipated and the clear sky was clear.

In the morning, the sun was sparse.

At noon, it was covered by dark clouds. In the middle of the afternoon, it started to drizzle, and the chilly spring was cool and the spring was cool.

Gu Jinzhi went back to the inner room and added another piece of clothing.

After changing her clothes, she sat on the kang next to the window of the East Room to do needlework.

She made sleeping shoes for Yanshan and the brothers, and also made a pink lotus-petal bellyband for Tongtong, which she could wear when Tongtong was in midsummer.

Before she got married, it was very difficult for her to learn needlework.

But later, once you learn it, it becomes easier. Now, Gu Jinzhi just doesn't dare to cut his coat. She can do anything underwear, and even learns a few tricks.

Incense was lit in the house to drive away the wet smell of spring rain.

The fragrant mist comes out beautifully along the hanging curtains of the ground. In front of the courtyard, willow catkins are flying, making the spring scenery beautiful.

The new green is dense, the red is sparse, and the flowers are falling and the man has not returned.

Gu Jinzhi thought of this and stopped the needle and thread in his hand.

She missed Yanshan.

Since the Chinese New Year, she has always been thinking about Yanshan. I don’t know where he is now and when he plans to come back. If she knew that Lin Yi was making decisions like this, Gu Jinzhi would not let him take Yanshan away.

But Yanshan's character...

Gu Jinzhi felt very sad.

Just as she had nowhere to vent her emotions, Tongtong in the inner room burst into tears, and she was already awake.

Gu Jinzhi hurriedly put down the needle and thread and entered the inner room.

The trouser Liu, who had been with Tongtong, had already picked up Tongtong.

Gu Jinzhi took the child and fed Tongtong.

Tongtong has been more than six months old. Gu Jinzhi's milk is not enough. Every day, Tongtong doesn't have enough food, so she needs to add some. Gu Jinzhi remembers that Yan Shao, the third child of milk, was only seven months old.

When she was a young man, she insisted on drinking fish soup without adding salt every day, and her mouth became astringent and very painful.

That feeling of discomfort was very profound. Gu Jinzhi thought that she would never do this for her next child again. So what if she could make her breast milk milk?

But seeing that the milk was not enough day by day and Tongtong needed to drink her tits, Gu Jinzhi gritted his teeth and continued to drink fish soup without adding salt.

She has been drinking for three days.

Maybe the initial effect was not obvious. Her milk did not increase.

She is not a person who is cruel to herself. When she becomes a mother and forcing herself to raise children becomes her nature, it is not a matter of being cruel or not.

Gu Jinzhi loves every child of her.

After feeding Tongtong, Tongtong didn't want to sleep.

She whispered and made irrelevant notes, as if she was unhappy.

Gu Jinzhi hugged her and looked around the room.

Tongtong likes to be carried around by others.

When Yanying and Yanshao brothers came in, Gu Jinzhi was so tired that his back was sore.

She is very tired lately.

Tongtong also got heavier day by day.

"Mom, I want to hug Tongtong." After Yanying came in, she immediately came to Gu Jinzhi and Tongtong, with her eyes lit up at Tongtong and gently grabbed Tongtong's little hand.

When Tongtong saw Yanying, she was so excited that she screamed.

Gu Jinzhi smiled and handed Tongtong to Yanying.

She put Tongtong in Yanying's arms. When she looked up, she saw the trouser Liu behind her with a worried look on her face. Until now, trouser Liu was still frightened, fearing that Yanying would fall into Tongtong.

Gu Jinzhi smiled and said to the wet nurse: "You go down."

She looked at her wet nurse and worried, and she felt uncomfortable.

Tongtong was happy.

When Yanying hugged her, she would squint her eyes and smile to reveal her tender red gums without teeth. She had not laughed out loud, but there were signs.

"Mom..." Yan Ying hugged Tongtong and walked around the room, Yan Shao pulled Gu Jinzhi's sleeve and said in a grievance, "I want to hug Tongtong too..."

"You are still young." Gu Jinzhi laughed, picked him up, put him on the kang, and then looked at Gu Jinzhi. Gu Jinzhi continued, "When you are as old as your second brother, you will

You can hug Tongtong."

"At that time, Tongtong was as big as me, so I couldn't hold her." Yan Shao felt even more aggrieved.

Gu Jinzhi was slightly stunned.

Then, she laughed loudly.

Sometimes, I really underestimate the child.

The child knows more than she imagines.

Gu Jinzhi couldn't stop laughing and hugged Yan Shao in his arms.

Yan Shao didn't understand why his mother laughed, but he was very happy when his mother hugged him and started laughing.

Yan Ying in the distance was unclear, so she looked over.

Suddenly, he shouted loudly to Gu Jinzhi: "Mom, mom, Tongtong laughed, Tongtong laughed..."

Gu Jinzhi's laughter came to an abrupt end.

She really heard laughter.

The giggle was crisp, tender, and intermittent, like a beginner walking staggeringly. The sound slowly reached the ears, as beautiful as a holy music.

"Come on, Tongtong, smile for your mother." Tongtong's laughter was very short, and Gu Jinzhi took her from Yanying's arms and made her laugh.

Tongtong was a little confused.

"Tongtong, laugh like this." Yanying covered her mouth and giggled like the girl.

His learning made Gu Jinzhi and Yan Shao very happy.

They both laughed.

Tongtong's head was not flexible enough. She glanced at Gu Jinzhi who was laughing, turned her head to look at Yanying, and suddenly giggled.

When she smiled, her body fluttered a little.

The giggling giggles are still intermittent, but they do not affect its charm.

——*—*——

Zhu Zhongjun left the palace at dusk and returned home.

He walked to the main courtyard and heard laughter.

The laughter was a bit strange, especially Yan Ying's laughter, which seemed to be pretending to be silly. Gu Jinzhi and Yan Shao's laughter were very heroic.

The heroic and cheerful laughter was mixed with one or two tender and short laughter.

Zhu Zhongjun let the Buddha understand something, and he quickly walked into the room.

The mother and son of Tojima laughed into a group of laughter.

Gu Jinzhi hugged Tongtong.

And Tongtong, who was interested in watching Yan Ying playing on the ground, giggling from time to time.

Zhu Zhongjun's steps were slightly paused, and he couldn't believe it.

It was Yan Shao who saw Zhu Zhongjun first.

He called out dad.

Yan Ying stopped playing, went up and called him dad, and rushed into Zhu Zhongjun's arms. He liked Zhu Zhongjun to hug him, and he still did not shy away when he was old.

Zhu Zhongjun hugged Yanying.

Then, he put down Yanying and went to hug Tongtong.

Gu Jinzhi gave him Tongtong.

Tongtong was tired of laughing. She ignored her father, who was eager to look at her, frowned, and became so angry that she almost cried.

Gu Jinzhi stepped forward and coaxed him, laughing: "She is sleepy."

Zhu Zhongjun looked unwilling to hand over the child to Gu Jinzhi.

Gu Jinzhi carried Tongtong to the inner room to sleep.

When she came out, Yan Ying had already told Zhu Zhongjun everything.

"...I didn't laugh yesterday." Zhu Zhongjun said. "You probably taught her."

He praised Yanying.

Yan Ying laughed and accepted Zhu Zhongjun's praise, and he was very proud.

"I...I taught my sister to laugh too." Yan Shao said unwillingly.

Zhu Zhongjun laughed, touched his head, and said, "Your credit is also your credit. I am not at home, it is all your credit. I will also have my dear mother and sister in the future."

Yan Shao nodded quickly.

Because Tongtong learned to smile, the whole family was in a happy mood.

After dinner, Yan Ying insisted that Zhu Zhongjun check his homework today. He wanted to show Zhu Zhongjun the moves he learned today.

Zhu Zhongjun said, "You take your third brother back first, and your father will come back tomorrow. Dad has something to say to your mother."

Yan Ying said oh, and although she was a little disappointed, she still took Yan Shao away first.

After the children left, the room became quiet.

Gu Jinzhi looked at the wet nurses with the children, and then he returned to the inner room with confidence and asked Zhu Zhongjun: "What do you want to say?"

Zhu Zhongjun doesn't look like coaxing a child.

He really has something to say to Gu Jinzhi.

Zhu Zhongjun was silent.

His slender fingers gently tapped the kang, as if it was indescribable.

"What fragrance has it been smoked?" he said suddenly with a frown.

"I put a few pieces of sandalwood incense." Gu Jinzhi said, "It's raining, the moisture is a bit fishy and tide, and it smells so bad. So I let the incense light and drive away some of the moisture. Do you feel uncomfortable if you smell it?"

"It's okay..." Zhu Zhongjun said reluctantly.

He has nothing to say.

That means there is really something unspeakable.

"What happened?" Gu Jinzhi asked him with a guess, "Is it because Tan You's evidence is not valid, but because the prince and Yuan Yuye were involved in the trouble?"

Zhu Zhongjun did not refute or answer.

Gu Jinzhi guessed it right.

She didn't say anything anymore.

In her heart, she felt vaguely good. If Tan You were really beheaded, she would feel regretful: Why can he die so easily?

"Tan You was tortured in Beijing because it may involve the prince and the war in the northwest. The emperor asked me to keep it secret. Except for the prince, no one in the capital was very clear." Zhu Zhongjun said slowly after a while, "Cai said, "Cai."

Ten days later, news of the mutiny in the Northwest Camp was spread. Tan You's subordinates asked the court to announce Tan You's evidence, otherwise they would be released... Someone spread the torture of Tan You to the Northwest and even provoked Tan You's subordinates.

The mutiny, the emperor was so angry that he vomited blood. He was unconscious for a day and a night, but he was not awake yet."

But Gu Jinzhi laughed.

"It was done by the prince and Yuan Yuye." Gu Jinzhi affirmed, "Isn't this good? The prince is seeking death. If you provoke a mutiny, you will find out sooner or later that the prince and Yuan Yuye will be found. They are tired of living."

Zhu Zhongjun looked up at her.

Zhu Zhongjun was a little surprised by her relief.

"….Tan You can't die." He said, "at least this time, he can't die."

"It's best not to die now." Gu Jinzhi said, "He doesn't want to die now, so he can't ask for death in the future."

Zhu Zhongjun was still silent.

He was very frustrated.

On March 16th, the emperor finally woke up.

His face was pale and he had reached the end of his journey.

The Empress Dowager issued an imperial edict to ask Gu Jinzhi to go to the palace to treat the emperor.

After the emperor returned to the capital, he did not invite Gu Jinzhi. One reason was that Gu Jinzhi had not given the emperor a consultation for seven years, and she did not understand the emperor's pulse case, so she might not be able to see it well; the other reason was that the emperor had already had a trusted imperial physician.

Besides, Gu Jinzhi had just given birth, and the empress dowager didn't know if she could see it accurately.

After all, it has not shown his hands in front of the empress dowager and the emperor for seven years, which makes people forget Gu Jinzhi's ability.

Now that I am invited, I am afraid that the imperial physician has already concluded that he is critically ill, the empress dowager is unwilling to give up and asks Gu Jinzhi to take a look.

Gu Jinzhi went there.
