Yipin Tianxia

Chapter 41

(The second update will be sent soon~~~)

This time when he entered the city, Nianfu saw the inconvenience of transportation in ancient times.

Xuancheng is only a town less than a hundred miles away from Huai'an Town. If there is a car, it takes less than an hour, but they walked for two full days.Along the way, I went over mountains and ridges, with ups and downs, and the bumps made my butt hurt, and I still wanted to vomit.

It's really not that chanting blessings is hypocritical, people who have never ridden in an ancient carriage will not understand.At this time, there were no rubber tires, and all the cars were just wooden wheels with iron hoops. How high was the shock absorption performance?If it wasn't because she was in a hurry, she would rather walk!

On the contrary, Hou Fangyu is used to riding horses, and he is comfortable outside, but seeing Nianfu and his grandson turned pale, he felt a little sorry, "Actually, there is still a waterway to go, but it will be slower, or take a boat on the way back. Well, it's not so bumpy anymore."

Pull it down!If you get dizzy in a car, don't you get dizzy in a boat?Nianfu would rather have a shorter time, and also want to suffer less torture.

In fact, she would like to go out for a ride, but she can't.If he rode with that prospective son-in-law, he was afraid of shocking others' jaws, so he had no choice but to say nothing.

On the contrary, Old Man Shi said politely, "It's okay, I'll be there soon, it's okay."

Hou Fangyu glanced at his sister Nianfu again, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up.

When they got home, it was up to grandpa to make their marriage clear in front of everyone, and it would be useless for anyone to stop him from marrying his little wife!

Although Daddy Shi's eyes are blurred, his heart is not confused. In the past two days, he has already seen that this silly boy of the Hou family really only cares about his granddaughter.If you want to get married in the future, you don't have to worry about the relationship between the young couple.It's just that they can get married?With doubts, the old man put a question mark in his heart.

When he reached the gate of the city, the sun was already in the west, and Hou Fangyu wanted to go home directly, but Mr. Shi said that he was going to buy something. I want to stay in the inn for one night, and then go to pay my respects tomorrow.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I entered the city, I saw a member of the Hou family guarding here.Seeing Hou Fangyu, they all gathered around like stars holding the moon, saying in a hurry, "Master, you are finally back, why don't you ask the younger one to follow you when you go out? Madam made a good meal and almost beat us up." !"

"Okay, okay!" Hou Fangyu grabbed a handful of silver and gagged the mouths of these people, intending to lure them to visit the grandparents of the Shi family.

But when those servants saw the shabby clothes of Nianfu grandchildren, they showed some contempt, and reluctantly worshiped, but they were not sincere.

One of them, who was more mature, said, "Since we are here, let's go home together. How can there be any reason to let guests live outside?"

Father Shi's heart sank when he heard the word "guest", and he was waiting to refuse, but a family member who went back to report the letter came to pick him up in the carriage of the Hou's mansion, and warmly invited him, "Madam heard that the old master of the Shi family is here, please do Please go back to the mansion!"

Father Shi was a little confused, these servants obviously avoided the address of their in-laws intentionally or unintentionally, to show their status, but if they really had no intention, how could Mrs. Hou invite them back home so enthusiastically?

Thinking about his family's situation, the old man was still kind-hearted and thought about people in a better way, and let them go as they please.

This is the first time for Nianfu to come back to Hou's house, so he can't help but take a good look at it.

The coachman seemed to know what she was thinking, and instead of entering the mansion directly, he took their grandparents around the gate of Hou's house.

If the Ouyang family's five-entry mansion is compared to a calm and introverted lady, then the Hou family is a domineering rich daughter.Located on the most prosperous street in Xuancheng, there is an endless stream of guests.

Hou Fangyu looked at the big lights and festoons at the door of his house, and he was a little embarrassed. He explained, "My house is not like this usually. This is because I want to hold a birthday banquet for my grandfather, so it is a little more grand."

Nianfu didn't make a sound, but Daddy Shi said gently, "It should."

When the carriage turned a corner, they were not allowed to get out of the door where the guests came in and out, but they went around to the secluded corner door at the top.

Hou Fangyu suddenly had a fit, "Why did you park the car here? Go back to the gate!"

The coachman smiled apologetically, "Master, I don't know. Because there are so many guests coming and going, it is inevitable that guests will point and point at us. It is better to go in here and go directly to the backyard. It is less troublesome. Let the guests come down, the wife is still waiting inside." .”

After hearing this, Old Man Shi hurriedly said, "That's it. Recite blessings, let's get out of the car."

Seeing that the old man had already got up and left, Hou Fangyu had no choice but to give up, but drove away the young man who wanted to help, set up small ladders for their grandparents and helped them get down one by one.

Seeing Nian Fu's soft lips thank you, Hou Fangyu's heart was sweeter than honey.Forget about the unhappiness just now, and walk ahead to lead their grandparents in personally.

Just after passing through a hanging flower gate, I saw a young woman in a fine attire greeted her and joked, "Oh, I hope you, the golden phoenix, come back! If you don't come back, mother will pick it up in person."

Hou Fangyu felt a little embarrassed, and turned around to introduce, "This is my third sister, who likes to joke the most."

The third aunt of the Hou family walked over and held Nianfu's hand, "Is this the little girl from the Mu family? She is so beautiful."

Recited a blessing to her generously, "Hello, Sangu."

Hou Fangyu was stunned by such an obvious address, but Hou Sangu was very satisfied, "You are really a sensible girl. If I see you, my mother will be happy. By the way, you must be exhausted from the long journey, right? Why don't you invite the old man?" First take my sister back to the room to rest, wash your face or something, see you later."

Hou Fangyu choked up, didn't he say his mother was waiting to see his wife?Why did you send people back to the room again?But old man Shi has already nodded politely, "It's because I'm tired, I need to worry about it."

Looking at the dusty looks on the grandparents and grandchildren, Hou Fangyu thought about it and said, "Then you go back to your room and rest, and I will come back to see you."

Seeing that her younger brother had stopped making trouble, Sangu Hou also heaved a sigh of relief, smiled all over her face, and personally sent Nianfu and the others to the guest room.Then he patted his younger brother pretending to be angry, "You don't want to go back to the room to wash? Look at this dirty thing, it's all like mud monkeys!"

Hou Fangyu laughed and ran away, and soon Nianfu's grandparents also arrived at the room arranged for them, a rather secluded small courtyard.

Third Aunt Hou led them in and said with a smile, "Don't be surprised, there are many distinguished guests at home, and the front is full. Although this place is remote, it is rare and quiet. It is also in the back house, which has just been cleaned, but it is comfortable to live in. .”

Father Shi continued to smile and be polite, but Nianfu walked to the table, intentionally or unintentionally stretched out his finger and wiped the side of a large vase on the table, and his finger turned black immediately.

She clapped her hands lightly in front of Third Aunt Hou as if she didn't care much, then lifted the teapot and poured it down. The tea was full, even if it wasn't even half hot. Judging by the condition, it might have been made overnight.

He just pretended not to know, and brought the tea in front of Third Aunt Hou, "Please trouble Grandma Third Aunt to lead the way, please have a sip of tea."

The smile on Third Aunt Hou's face froze, she took the tea and scolded the little girl outside, "If you can't even do this little thing well, what's the use of supporting you?"

Father Shi thought it might be just an accident, so he wanted to come out to smooth things over, but seeing Nian Fu waved his hand quietly at him, Father Shi swallowed back the words that came to his lips.

All of a sudden, I saw four or five little girls coming in, not only wiping the ashes with a rag in a panic, but also going to the bed to change those seemingly bright quilts.

Seeing this, Old Man Shi's face darkened.Let his granddaughter support him to sit down in the hall, without saying anything.

Hou Sangu felt really embarrassed and wanted to say something, but saw that the old man had closed his eyes, and Nianfu buried his head even more, and didn't respond at all.

Hou Sangu couldn't walk away, so she had to stand there, directing the little girls to clean up the house again, changing the bedding and hot water, and then stepped forward to apologize, "It's all cleaned up, why don't you rest first ?”

Father Shi nodded, "Thanks for your hard work."

Hou Sangu was blessed and left like a gust of wind.

Nianfu and grandpa looked at each other, they coincidentally and then looked away, with mixed feelings.

After waiting for a while, Nianfu said, "Grandpa, let me wash your face with water."

The old man hummed lightly, but there was clearly a sense of helplessness in the old voice.

Over there, Third Aunt Hou had already walked in front of Mrs. Hou, "That girl is not stupid, nor is she easy to deal with."

After Mrs. Hou asked about the reason, she sneered, "So what if there are some clever tricks? No matter how capable you are, you are just a tofu seller. You can bring someone back during dinner, and I will make arrangements. By the way, let people Watch out for the young master, don't let him get too close to that girl!"

Before the words were finished, someone yelled outside the window, "What do you mean I'm not allowed to get too close to people?"

While talking, Hou Fangyu had already lifted the curtain and barged in. Relying on his family's doting, he said angrily, "Fortunately, I thought you were willing to accept her, and I wanted to thank you, but I didn't expect you to secretly Still hitting people with bad ideas! I don't care, anyway, she is the daughter-in-law ordered by my grandfather, whether you like it or not, I will marry her!"

Madam Hou was angry and furious, "Did you ever yell at your mother like that?"

But in the end, he was a little guilty, so after yelling, he couldn't be more aggressive towards his son, and only took the servants to vent his anger, "Are you all dead? You can't even make a report? Are there any rules!"

Third Aunt Hou has always been tactful, otherwise Mrs. Hou would not have asked this daughter to come back to be a helper alone. Seeing this, she hurriedly stepped forward to smooth things over, "Little brother, you misunderstood, mother is not what you think. You and the Mu family sister Even though they are engaged, they are unmarried couples after all, wouldn't it cause people to gossip if they see each other all the time? Even we have to avoid suspicion, so as not to embarrass her little girl's family."

After all, she was his own mother, and Hou Fangyu didn't want to think too badly of Mrs. Hou. Hearing what the third sister said was reasonable, three points of her arrogance disappeared.

Third Aunt Hou smiled and pushed him in front of his mother, "Mother just said that she was going to clean up a good banquet at night to welcome others, so you came here to make trouble, why don't you come over and apologize?"

Only then did Hou Fangyu become happy. Anyway, he was the youngest at home, and he was used to being shameless since he was a child. Although he was in front of his sister, he had the nerve to roll into Mrs. Hou's arms.

Madam Hou's face suddenly became tense, and she pushed him away with a smile, "How old are you, you're still like a child!"

After getting tired of it for a while, she sent her son away, and Mrs. Hou asked someone to take out a piece of good clothing material from the box and gave it to her daughter, "I heard that this material was sent to Beijing for the nobles. Come on, your brother mischievously took away one piece, and this is the only one left. If it is given to you three sisters, it will not be enough. You quietly use it to make new clothes, don’t just say I gave it to you.”

Hou Sangu knew it was a reward for herself, so she accepted it politely.
