The famous book tour starting from the Red House

Chapter 91 Sister
After chatting for a while, Mother Jia asked, "I don't know how the palace arranges for the son-in-law to come to Beijing this time?"

Lin Ruhai shook his head and said, "Your Majesty hasn't decided yet."

Mother Jia hesitated, and then comforted, "Your Majesty knows what you are capable of. Presumably, he is considering what kind of position is suitable for you. Now take advantage of this leisure time, and you should also take a good rest for a while, just to accompany Yu'er The kid."

Lin Ruhai replied with a smile, "Mother-in-law is right."

"Well, it's good if you can think about it that way." Mother Jia nodded and asked Wang Xifeng again, "Girl Feng, is the yard tidy yet?"

Wang Xifeng didn't answer, and everyone looked at her curiously, only to see her wandering around, obviously thinking about other things.Li Wan hastily tugged at her sleeve, seeing that she turned her head to look at him in a daze, so she had to repeat Jia Mu's words in a low voice.

Only then did Wang Xifeng come back to her senses, bowed to Mother Jia and Lin Ruhai first, and said embarrassedly, "Forgive me, old lady and Uncle Lin, I was just thinking about which yard should be arranged for Uncle Lin, so I was a little confused for a while. There is God."

Lin Ruhai naturally replied that it's okay, but she didn't want Jia's mother to expose her with a smile, "I see you, you are in a hurry to see Lian'er."

As soon as this remark came out, everyone in the room laughed, and Tanchun made a shameful face at Wang Xifeng.Wang Xifeng's face turned red immediately after being exposed by Jia's mother, and she was speechless.

Lin Ruhai chuckled lightly, and said to Wang Xifeng, "Nephew and daughter-in-law, don't worry, Lian'er is probably busy at the Xiuyiwei Yamen right now, and it may take two or three hours before she can return home."

After Wang Xifeng thanked Lin Ruhai with a blushing face, Jia's mother smiled and said, "You can rest assured now, hurry up and answer what I just said."

Wang Xifeng hurriedly replied, "I was just asking the old lady to make up her mind. There are quite a lot of vacant yards in the mansion, but I think that after Uncle Lin returns to Beijing, there must be entertainment, so after much deliberation, it seems that Lixiangyuan is the most suitable place. I ordered people to pack them up together, but..."

Hearing what she said, it's fine for others to pay, but Mrs. Wang gave Wang Xifeng a hard look, and scolded her in her heart.Wang Xifeng, as if she hadn't seen it, just looked at Jia's mother, waiting for her decision.

Mother Jia was also in a bit of a dilemma. Originally, it was just right for her son-in-law to live in Lixiangyuan. It was the place where the old man raised him in his later years, and it was close to the back street, so it was convenient for socializing.But Mrs. Wang didn't wink, and she had only let her relatives live in Waibalu before. It would be impolite to entertain her son-in-law again. Thinking of this, Mother Jia became even more dissatisfied with Mrs. Wang.

Seeing Jiamu and Wang Xifeng's troubled looks, Lin Ruhai couldn't help asking, "I remember that Lixiangyuan was raised by my father-in-law. It's beautifully furnished and quiet, isn't it nice?"

Mother Jia had no choice but to tell him that Lixiangyuan had only received Xue's family before.After hearing this, Lin Ruhai smiled and replied, "It's okay, they are all relatives of my family, so why should I care about that?"

Mother Jia smiled and praised her son-in-law for his generosity, and Wang Xifeng followed suit, and the room was filled with joy.Only Mrs. Wang was so angry that she hated both Jiamu and Wang Xifeng in her heart, thinking that they were embarrassing herself on purpose.She couldn't help but think of the person her elder brother brought to see her before. At this moment, she made a decision and agreed to the conditions of that person.Waiting for my Yuan Chun to fly to the branches, there are people like you who will look good!
After talking for a while, Mother Jia asked Lin Ruhai to wash off the dust on her body first. She wanted to find a woman to lead the way, but Daiyu was in a hurry to talk to her father and volunteered to take over the job.Mother Jia knew that their father and daughter reunited after a long absence, so of course she nodded in agreement.

The father and daughter then bid farewell to Jia's mother and left Rongqing Hall.

On the way, seeing her daughter's stature half a head taller than when she came to Beijing, Lin Ruhai was both happy and sad.The happy thing is that the daughter has grown up, but the sad thing is that it will be married in two years, and she can't help but sigh, "Yu'er has grown up, and I won't have a father in the future."

Dai Yuhong said incredulously, "What does Daddy say, my daughter will honor you for the rest of her life!"

Seeing her daughter's true feelings revealed at this moment, Lin Ruhai even changed her address to what she used to call her when she was a child.I felt even more guilty in my heart. I was negligent for a while and almost harmed her. Fortunately, it was not too late, so I calmed down and smiled, "Okay, Dad said something wrong."

Daiyu then gave up, and after a while, the father and daughter started talking and laughing again.

……

Mu Xu came out of the palace and joined the guards at the gate of the palace. A man who had been waiting for a long time came forward to salute, "My lord, Jia Qian ordered me to send a message. The yamen has already made arrangements, my lord, don't worry."

"okay, I get it."

After sending those people away, Mu Xu got on his horse and headed towards his own mansion at full speed. At this moment, he was also eager to return home. He didn't feel it when he was outside, but now he can't bear it anymore when he returns to Beijing.

He rode his horse and galloped all the way, and it took only a quarter of an hour to reach his door.His long follower, Yang An, got the news that he was coming back today, so he brought a few servants to wait early.Seeing people arriving now, before Mu Xu got off his horse, he went up to meet him, "My lord, you can count yourself back, the concubine has sent people to ask for several times."

Mu Xu got off his horse and handed the reins to the young servant. While walking into the mansion through the side door, he said, "Didn't I just enter the capital, and I was called into the palace by His Majesty? How about it, I'm not here these days , has grandma been in good health, and is everything in the mansion as usual?"

Yang An trotted along with his elder son, and replied, "The concubine is in good health, and the house is also fine." After speaking, he begged again, "My elder son, next time you go out of Beijing, you have to take your little one with you." Just take it with you."

Mu Xu replied casually, "Next time, who knows when I will go out of Beijing next time, let's talk about it then." He walked very fast, and he turned to the backyard just as he was about to go in. , Suddenly remembered what I brought back from Yangzhou.So he stopped in his tracks, turned around and asked Yang An, "Have the things I brought back from Yangzhou ever been delivered to the mansion?"

Yang An replied out of breath, "It was delivered half an hour ago, and now it is placed in the prince's courtyard. I was just about to ask the prince how to deal with it."

Mu Xu pondered for a while, and ordered him, "Send those big boxes to the warehouse in the house, and let Mei Jian receive the smaller ones in my private warehouse." After speaking, he reminded him, "By the way, let people Send the gift I specially gave to my grandmother, and then send it to Songhe Hall."

"Yes, the little one will do it now." Yang An responded, and was about to report back to the prince when the little county master came to Beijing.Unexpectedly, as soon as he looked up, he saw him enter the inner courtyard like a gust of wind, so he could only swallow the words in his stomach.

As soon as Mu Xu entered the grandmother's courtyard, the girl guarding the door saw him and immediately shouted inside, "The prince is back."

Mu Xu smiled, and was about to go in when he came to the door, when he saw the door curtain was lifted from the inside, and a small figure rushed out, directly bumping into him.

Mu Xu hurriedly stopped, pressed the top of the figure's head, and looked down, it turned out to be his concubine sister, Mu Tong.I saw this little girl was wearing a green dress, with two small horns pierced on the top of her head, and on her round face, a pair of black jewel-like eyes were staring at her.Before Mu Xu could speak, she said aggrievedly, "Brother is so bad, I wanted to give you a surprise, but you pressed his head so painfully." She rubbed her face as she spoke.

How could Mu Xu not understand his sister, and how much effort he had put in, how could he not know?Immediately, he reached out and gave her a brain collapse, and said with a smile, "You little girl, I don't know you yet. Tell me, what are you looking for again?"

Mu Tong rolled his eyes and was thinking about what to say, when he heard his grandmother's voice from inside, "You little girl, you haven't come in to talk to your brother, what do you look like at the door?" After reacting, he blocked his elder brother at the door, stuck out his tongue, and quickly moved the door away.

Mu Xu rubbed the top of her head, and pulled her into the room together.As soon as he entered the room, he saw his grandmother looking at him with a smile. He let go of his sister, rushed to kneel in front of his grandmother in three steps and two steps, "Grandma, grandson is back."

Concubine Zhang pulled Mu Xu up with a loving face, let him sit beside her, held his hand, looked at him carefully for a moment, and then said, "It's dark, and it's also thin."

Mu Xu also held her grandmother's hand back, smiling and explaining, "Grandma must have read it wrong, I have grown tall, so I look thinner."

Concubine Zhang shook her head and said, "No matter what, you have to rest in the mansion for a few days, or I won't let you go out."

Mu Xu naturally agreed, "Okay, grandson just listens to grandma, and will bother grandma every day."

The little girl Mu Tong also interjected, "Yes, and me, I also come to grandma every day."

Concubine Zhang looked at her grandson and granddaughter, she couldn't even close her mouth with a smile, and said repeatedly, "Okay, it's better for you to come every day."
