The next day, when Xue Lang came back from the court, the housekeeper Xue Xie presented a pile of gift lists. Xue Lang roughly divided the scores, including the relatives of the Li Tang royal family and the ministers.
The sisters of Princess Pingyang gave all kinds of pregnancy tonics and conventional gifts. The ministers were different. The familiar ministers gave more thick gifts; the unfamiliar ones were the regular gifts. However, someone actually sent a beautiful maid!
To tell you the truth, even after more than two years in the Tang Dynasty, there were many domestic servants in his family, but Xue Lang was still not used to this habit of treating people as goods. Xue Lang couldn't change the general situation of society, but he never intended to send a servant.
The strict rules of the family are to tell the servants the code of conduct in everything. It is the best thing for each other to abide by the rules. Xue Lang didn't have to betray his conscience to sell slaves. Here in him, strict rules are the greatest compassion and conscience. However, how to deal with these beautiful maids is a headache.
Xue Lang thought for a while and said, ”ask what skills you will have, and assign places according to their respective directors. If you can't do anything but serve people with color I don't need it here, even if I'm a rough servant. ”
”Here it is
Xue Xie took his orders and left.
Leaving aside these little things, Xue Lang estimated the time of the sage's coming to the court on the third day, and then he went into the palace to meet people. The sage is in the Zichen hall. The palace people around the sage also know him. When he comes, please wait for a moment and report to him.
The sage was dealing with the political affairs. He didn't let Xue Lang wait for a long time and called him in. See him still smile to tease a way: ”I just come down toward you, isn't already calculate good hour?”
Xue Lang smiles shyly, but he is honest: ”back to my father-in-law, my son-in-law is coming by the time. Therefore, please return my wife to my father-in-law! ”
The sage Longxin was very happy. He looked up and laughed a few times. Obviously, seeing the little couple's love, he was very happy. He nodded his head and said, ”if you let the virtuous son-in-law think that I am the cruel father-in-law who separated you from the two places, wouldn't it be very beautiful? Come on, tell Princess Pingyang to come and say that her husband-in-law has come to meet her! ”
”Here it is
The palace people took orders and left. The sage thought for a while and asked, ”do you know how to take care of a pregnant woman?”
Xue Lang shook his head and humbly asked for advice: ”please give me some advice from my father-in-law.”
The sage said, ”where do I know about such women! However, there are medical women and mammy who are familiar with this matter. I will give you two! ”
Xue Lang thanks gratefully: ”thank you for your generous father-in-law. My son-in-law must be open-minded to learn!”
”You Yang has the heart to learn, my heart is very happy!”
Weng's husband and son-in-law were chatting about their family affairs. The palace people came to report: ”I'd like to report to you that the prince has brought the king of Qi to see you.”
Xue Lang hesitated for a moment and asked, ”can my son-in-law avoid it?”
The sage waved his hand, straight way. After a while, the prince and the king of Qi came in together. The prince's face was full of dignified color, but the king of Qi was indignant.
”See your father, son!”
”Well, why are you two in such a situation?”
The prince even said in a hurry: ”tell my father that Yuanji went to the East Palace today and told her that Luoyang was different and that it was of great importance. He did not dare to make decisions. He brought Yuanji to see his father and ask him to make decisions.”
The sage was stunned and asked, ”Yuanji, what's wrong with Luoyang?”
