"Grandma, uncle is here."

The maid Liu Cui walked into the room to announce that Li Yue and Yan Yixin put down the pen and paper in their hands and got up to go out.

Before reaching the door, Li Heng walked in, solemnly bowed his hands and said:

"Eldest sister, eldest brother-in-law."

Yan Yixin helped the person up, looked him up and down and said:

"We got to know each other again. The training there must be tough."

"Fortunately, I'm used to it." Li Heng replied with a smile.

"You're here, your sister has asked the maid several times. We're staying at home tonight. Shunxi bought a pair of sheep and scorpions, and we'll stir-fry them at home."

"Okay, I'll listen to my sister and brother-in-law's arrangements. I also bought a lot of braised food, and I'll cut it up and eat it together later."

Just as he was talking, Bai Shao brought someone in with cloth bags, and Li Yue took one and opened it.

"This is what our mother prepared for Yaoyao. You can take it to the Pang family after dinner. Although there is no final agreement, the two families have exchanged tokens and the gifts that need to go. Sister will give them to you. We are ready, Mr. Pang has also informed us."

Li Heng nodded, looked at the cotton coat without objection, and asked:

"Have you received a letter from our mother? What do you mean?"

Li Yue smiled and took out the envelope from his sleeve, handed it to him and said:

"I didn't say anything, just let me keep an eye on you and don't let you show off. How about Luozi? My mother specifically asked me to reply to Dakebo when I reply."

"The roller is quite good. Apart from a few skin scratches during training, there is nothing major. Oh, by the way. He was selected by the Habayashi Guards. He will report there directly after this training is over."

In Liangyan, ordinary people know what Yulinwei does.

That is the highest honor for any soldier - guarding the palace. Not everyone can be selected as the Habayashi Guard. First of all, they must have an excellent martial arts body. Secondly, they must be tall and good-looking. These three points are indispensable.

As long as the Habayashi Guards serve for ten years and make no mistakes within ten years, they can return to the military camp where their ancestral home is when they want to leave and choose a junior military attaché of the seventh grade. But they generally could not go back. They could settle down in the capital, and some could even marry the concubines of wealthy families.

Li Yue was very happy for Luozi. If he could really stay in the capital, I believe Uncle Guo and the others would defect to him.

"This is really good news. Then why weren't you picked by the Habayashi Guards?"

"I'm not tall enough. Besides, I have to take the martial arts exam, so I definitely won't be able to enter the Habayashi Guards."

Yan Yixin also didn't want his brother-in-law to go there. Although it was very close to Tian's home, he was like accompanying a tiger. It would be troublesome for his father-in-law to come back in a few years.

The three of them chatted about the current situation together and wrote a reply to Beijing together. Bai Shao's lunch was ready.

After eating the hot lamb and scorpion stir-fried, Li Heng took Gastrodia elata and set off to Pang's house.

Li Yue prepared a lot of things, including food, clothing, clothing, and clothing, a total of four items, each of which was large in quantity.

When the carriage heard the door of Pang Mansion, Li Heng did not get out of the car. After a while, the voice of Gastrodia elata came from outside——

"Sir, Mr. Pang is waiting for you in the living room. Get off the car."

Li Heng got out of the car with a "hmm", picked up the cotton-padded clothes his mother made for Pang Yao, and walked in through the main entrance.

He comes to Pang Mansion more than once, so the housekeeper is very familiar with him, and he has watched Miss Sun grow up, so he is particularly optimistic about his eldest grandson.

"My wife came back from Jiangnan these days. The young lady is obviously in a bad mood. She didn't even eat at noon today."

Li Heng smiled slightly and nodded, but said nothing.

The Pang family just turned a blind eye to their relationship. So what the housekeeper meant when he said this was that he wanted him to have a chat with Pang Yao when they were alone.

Arriving at the Pang family living room, Mr. Pang and Pang Yao were both in the room.

Li Heng stepped forward, raised his hands in salute, and said: "Greetings to Grandpa Pang, I have met Miss Pang."

"Hello, Mr. Li." Pang Yao returned the favor.

Li Heng took the cloth bag from Gastrodia's hand, walked forward and placed it on the desk.

"This is a cotton-padded coat that my mother made for you to keep out the cold. I happened to go back to my sister's house for dinner today and brought it to you. My sister said that you should try it out. If it's not suitable, she will help you change it."

Pang Yao opened the bag, looked at the densely stitched cotton clothes inside, and raised the corners of her mouth.

"Auntie's craftsmanship is always so good, and the clothes won't be too big."

When they were talking, their eyes met, but neither of them dodge, they just looked at each other.

"Have you just finished eating?"

"I haven't eaten well." Li Heng replied against his will, then looked at Mr. Pang and said, "Grandpa Pang is in charge of the food. Let's eat together. Yaoyao is here too."

Except for the first time when he greets you, he will be solemn, and at other times he will call you by name. Just like when he goes to Li Yue, he first calls him "eldest sister" and "eldest brother-in-law", then "elder sister", "brother-in-law", and occasionally "Brother Yixin".

Mr. Pang chuckled, "Haha..." He stroked his beard and waved to the housekeeper, asking him to make arrangements.

The grandfather and grandson were very harmonious in the living room. After the food was placed on the table, Pang Yao sat next to his grandfather and ate a full bowl of rice. On the contrary, Li Heng, who was busy eating, only drank a bowl of soup.

So, what else doesn’t the old man understand?

Looking at my granddaughter who is growing up but has not yet had haircuts, I feel more and more sad in my heart. Especially now that my daughter-in-law is back.

"How long can Brother Heng stay here this time?"

"Go back after lunch tomorrow."

"Oh, that's just right. You can send Yao'er off tomorrow morning. She has to go to another village to look at the account books."

Pang Yao, who was suddenly assigned a job, was stunned for a moment, then nodded and asked:

"I wonder if Brother Heng has time? If possible, I'll have lunch at the villa before going back."

"Okay." Li Heng agreed without hesitation.

Just report it to your sister when you get home later, don't worry about anything else. There are no family restrictions on how they get along with each other, and at most they meet and talk more than the average person, but nothing else goes beyond them.

Of course, this is very illegal now.

As if he suddenly remembered something, Mr. Pang stood up with an "ah" sound and said:

"I have something to send to Tangtang. Just wait for me and I'll be right back."

"Yes."

After Mr. Pang went out, Li Heng took out the hairpin from his arms and put it on the table.

"I saw it when I passed by the jewelry store when I came back. You can wear it for fun."

Pang Yao felt sweet in her heart. She picked up the hairpin and looked at the simple carvings on it. She nodded and asked:

"Butler told you that I didn't have lunch?"

"Ah."

"I don't want her here, this is not her home." Pang Yao lost her previous dignity and complained childishly.

Li Heng understood her mood at the moment, poured her a cup of tea with a "hmm" and pushed it over.

"Grandpa loves you, just do your best now, other grandpas will make arrangements. If living here is boring, you can go back to Liaodong, go to the north, or go to my sister's place."

There will be more later
