Huaijin Fairy Journey

Chapter 6 Family Dinner
The others went back to the yard, Mrs. Yan was arranging for Mrs. Tai's entourage to rest and have a meal. Xue Hongxuan went to his mother and told about the situation at the city gate and the reason why his father didn't come back with the motorcade. In fact, he didn't say anything. Mrs. Yan also knows it well.

It is impossible for the old man to follow these people when he travels around the world. The people who will follow into the city are doctors, personal guards, various stewards, and people who accompany him.

This is only a small part, and there are still large troops outside the city, who will be resettled in a villa outside the city with the old master Xue Linyang.Because there are too many people to enter the city, the old man can only come back after entertaining and resettling on behalf of his father.

It may be that there was too much movement today. While waiting for the dinner, relatives and neighbors sent people to inquire about the situation. Mrs. Tai explained one by one, and by the way, said that today is a family banquet, and a banquet will be held for everyone in a few days.

At the dinner party, after seeing the ceremony again, everyone sat down in order according to their seniority.

The old man talked about some interesting things he had encountered abroad, and several old men and wives talked about the changes in family affairs and state affairs in recent years.

The elders have no food on the table, only tea and snacks, and they just chat and reminisce about the old days.

The children's table was full of food and soup, and Xue Huaijin and his sister were eating all the time, but their ears were pricked up, and they listened with gusto.

Usually, no one would tell the children about this, but when they were almost full, they were all driven back to sleep, and the parents and elders continued...

Taking a walk after dinner the next day, Xue Huaijin and Xue Huaijun finally had a chance to ask, "Mother, did you have dinner last night?"

"Family banquet, how can there be no food. The banquet has nothing to do with you children, so I will serve you all the meals. If the adults have something to talk about, they will serve tea and snacks first. After you leave, we will serve the food and start the banquet. After eating After all, we broke up, and your great-grandfather just came back after all, so you still have to rest." Zhou Huiyun pinched the cheeks of the two of them and said.

"Mother! Don't pinch, don't pinch!"

"Yes, I'm going to drool!" The siblings looked for an opportunity to escape from their mother's clutches immediately.

Zhou Huiyun looked at the two people who were rubbing their cheeks and hid away and asked: "Where is the gift for the old man, have you thought about it?"

"Thought it out!" The siblings replied in unison.

Zhou Huiyun raised her eyebrows in surprise: "What is it? I'll check it out for you."

"No, I can't say it in advance! Let's go to the study to read..." Xue Huaijun covered his sister's mouth in time.He stopped her from reaching her lips, and then ran away with her sister.

"These two children have their own little secrets!"

Zhou Huiyun expressed emotion.

Chunmei, the personal maid, smiled and said, "Isn't that right? In the blink of an eye, the young lady has already started to learn enlightenment. The young lady has had children these years, and the housekeeper has been socializing. It's also hard work, so I can relax in the future."

"That can't be done, 'Born in sorrow, die in peace'! It seems that I will run to Mrs. Tai more often in the future to find something to do." Zhou Huiyun couldn't help laughing just after she finished speaking.

Although it is indeed hard to have children, life in the husband's family is much better than I expected.

There is no conflict with concubines and concubine children; getting along with sisters-in-law and mother-in-law is also harmonious; the family style is enlightened, and women's vision is no longer just in the inner house. In addition to taking care of their own dowry shop, they can also assist their husbands in taking care of them. The farm shop that supplies the daily expenses of my small family, and then go to Mrs. Tai to pick up some errands every few days, and my life is extraordinarily free and fulfilling.

A few days later, Xue Hongxuan took his daughter-in-law and three children to visit the old man. After the ceremony, the old man called the three great-grandchildren to his side for a test, and then praised the elder grandson and his wife for their good teaching and successors in the family.

Xue Hongxuan replied: "They are all cultivated by the family. Our family's family study is the strength of the whole family to cultivate these little guys. It is grandfather, you have been traveling for eight years for the family school, absorbing the strengths of various families, and constantly adjusting. There are also second uncles in the family who wholeheartedly manage the family school, so there are these outstanding children."

"This is the meaning of the existence of the family. Each of them performs their own duties and exerts their strengths to one place. The benefits are in the present and the inheritance will continue!" The old man looked at them and said happily.

……

In the next three years, Xue Huaijin often saw the old man in Mengxue. He really attached great importance to the family school, and added many courses that were not available before.

But I don't know why, after the old man came back, the atmosphere at home changed. There are often elders who come to Mengxue, watch them attend classes inexplicably, do nothing, and leave after staying enough, as if they just came to be in a daze.

Even the parents sometimes looked at the Xue Huaijin brothers and sisters with complicated expressions, happy and reluctant, and asked them, but didn't say anything, which made the three brothers and sisters secretly nervous for a while, and then they found that nothing happened, so they relaxed.

At this time, Xue Huaijin and the third brother were promoted to Bingshe together, and the eldest brother was in Yishe of the ethnology.

In the past three years, Xue Huaijin has lived a fulfilling life. She has never thought that going to school is such an interesting thing. All kinds of wild survival skills, exposure to real martial arts, and began to learn swordsmanship in depth.

At the beginning, I was also surprised. Girls learn these things. It can be said that girls do not take part in the imperial examinations.

I also inquired in private, and found that the imperial examination has not changed, and it still pays equal attention to civil and military affairs, which is strange.Mobilize the eldest and third brothers together, when in contact with relatives and children, ask them what they usually study, and found that most of them emphasize martial arts and despise literature, which is similar to my own, but not as complicated as my own.

Since everyone is like this, there is no need to investigate, and you will always know in the future.

Taking a walk after dinner that day, Xue Huaijin asked her father: "Father, is there something you are hiding from us? After your grandfather came back, you all felt a little weird. The situation has become more serious recently. You often lose your mind."

"It's okay, what can happen, children just love to think about it." Xue Hongxuan replied without changing his expression.

"That is, especially father, you used to be very busy at night and rarely had dinner with us. In recent years, no matter when we come to dinner, you are basically there.

Also, in the past, my mother looked at us in a daze occasionally, and recently you are the same, saying that there is nothing wrong! "Xue Huaijun immediately asked his father.

Xue Hongxuan looked at his eldest son, and found that he was also frowning at him, and after a moment of hesitation, he looked at his wife.

Zhou Huiyun sighed and said, "Let me tell you. It will start in a month. Let them know what they have to go through. If they are not selected, they will not regret it in the future."
