Zhumen Chunshen

Chapter 132 Returning to Beijing ([-])

Looking up at the blue sky without a trace of cloud shadow, it was high and bright, it was truly autumn, she let out a long sigh of relief, and she didn't know how to describe her mood at the moment.

There is her home here, but there is still no warmth and warmth that belongs to home, there are only responsibilities and the desire to struggle to survive.

"Is it Xiao Xing and Xiao Li? The old slave was sent by my wife to pick up the second lady!" Xiao Xing and Xiao Li were just leaving the cabin and building a pergola to look at the pier. When they heard the call, they followed the prestige and saw a man in a dark brown dress. A middle-aged woman with a double-breasted jacket, a stone-blue pleated skirt, and arms around her temples waved to them. Behind her was a daughter-in-law. Who else was Ma's confidant, Mother Qiao?

The merchant ship that the Xie family consigned to Beijing earlier brought a letter, so the Yao family got the letter and Yao Cunhui arrived today.

"Mother Qiao, Second Miss is here!" Xiao Xing and Xiao Li smiled, agreed loudly, and hurried back to the cabin to tell Yao Cunhui.

After a while, Mother Qiao brought the daughter-in-law to greet her on the boat, knelt down and gave Yao Cunhui a deep blessing, and her old face smiled like a blossoming flower: "Second Miss, you have worked hard all the way! Madam specially sent the old lady Slave is here to pick up Second Miss back to the mansion, Second Miss please!"

Yao Cunhui glanced behind her and said with a smile, "Thank you, mother! Only you two are here?"

Qiao's mother was suddenly a little unhappy. She was Ma Shi's number one servant, and she came to pick her up in person. Does the second miss have any objections?
"Yes, Madam specifically ordered the old servant to take Miss Haosheng back, and Miss will get in the car right away!" Mother Qiao's face suddenly turned ugly.

"It's my fault!" Yao Cunhui smiled and said, "I didn't explain it clearly in the letter. I have a lot of luggage. I'm afraid it won't fit in a carriage, and how can I let my mother move it by herself? You are the only one beside my mother." Useful people!" Yao Cunhui said, then politely called the boat boss, promised five taels of silver as labor fees, and asked him to help find a proper carriage, and invited the boat boss, his father and son, and the two boatmen on the accompanying boat, etc. Help with luggage later.

Embarrassed, Qiao's mother rubbed her hands and said with a sneer, "It's the old slave who didn't think carefully, which made Miss laugh!"

"It's okay, mom is getting old, and it's understandable to be forgetful!" Yao Cunhui smiled lightly, and sat in the cabin calmly, calmly ordering Xiao Xing and Xiao Li to watch over the luggage.

The smile on Qiao's mother's face froze, and she stood aside with her hands down, silent.

Yao Cunhui sneered in his heart, Mrs. Ma sent the first-class mother around her to pick her up, this is enough face, even Master Yao couldn't fault her!But there is not a single footman, and there is only one carriage!
How can she have less luggage when she returns to Beijing from her direct sister's house?All the servants brought back to Beijing with shopkeeper Lin, how could Mrs. Ma not know?She is so clear today that she is trying to make things difficult for herself.

If she is a temper tantrum and loses her temper on this pier, that would be great!Mrs. Ma is really omnipotent, and he refuses to let go of the slightest chance to make things difficult for him!

"Miss, the luggage has been moved, please get in the car, miss!" Xiaoli came in and answered with a knee, ignoring Qiao's mother and the attendants as air.

Originally seeing Qiao's mother come to pick him up in person, she and Xiao Xing were delighted, but when the young lady asked and said that, they also became annoyed.

Which family's young lady came back from a long journey, and her parents really treated each other so coldly?

"Mother Qiao, please!" Yao Cunhui stood up and smiled.

"Miss, please go first!" Qiao's mother stepped aside with embarrassment and embarrassment on her face. Before Yao Cunhui could pay, she took out the broken silver and gave it to the old boatman, thanking him again and again.

Yao Cunhui got off the car at the second gate, and before she could stand still, she heard a crisp cheer, "Second Sister! Second Sister!", and a figure in a sapphire blue robe rushed into her arms like the wind, a little Hugging her tightly with his arms, he cheered, "Sister, you are finally back! Zan'er misses you so much!"

"Zan'er!" Yao Cunhui's heart warmed up, she leaned over and hugged Yao Shizan tightly, her eye sockets became hot, and she said happily: "My dear Zan'er, my sister misses you so much too! My sister is not here, are you studying obediently?"

Yao Shizan nodded his head like a chicken pecking at rice, and hurriedly confessed: "Zan'er reads and writes every morning, and practices martial arts in the afternoon, and he never misses a day. If you don't believe me, ask Wu Jin and Wu Guang!"

"Really? My sister will test you later!" Yao Cunhui smiled and pinched his pink cheeks.

"it is good!"

"Second miss!" Wu Jin, who stood silently at the side, saw that the siblings had come to an end, stepped forward and bowed his hands in salute.

"Young master seems to be in better health and spirit again, thank you for your hard work!" Yao Cunhui smiled slightly at Wu Jin.Just now she had already caught Yao Shizan's pulse calmly, and took a closer look at his face.

"No, dare not!" Wu Jin panicked a little bit at a loss.

"Second Miss, you're really back!" Yao Cunhui looked up, and saw Rong Ma and Hong Zhi also running over, hurriedly shouted and went forward, holding Rong Ma's hand with a smile on her face.

When Mama Rong saw Yao Cunhui, she was happy, but she couldn't help wiping her tears, "You're finally back! You lost weight!" Mama Rong finally put her heart into her belly.

"Aren't I doing well? Am I more energetic than before?" Yao Cunhui blinked mischievously, but made Rong Ma laugh.

"Mum Rong, you guys came just in time, help me bring back all the salutes!" He said while holding Yao Shizan's hand: "I'll go to see my mother first, and I'll go back later!"

Rong's mother agreed, and ordered Hongzhi to call some strong wives to carry the luggage. Yao Cunhui led Yao Shizan, and took Xiao Xing and Xiao Li to the main courtyard.Wu Jin followed Yao Shizan closely.

Because of the guilt of accepting someone, and also to show the self-cultivation of a virtuous mother, Mrs. Ma treats Yao Cunhui very kindly, and the kind smile in the corner of her eyes seems to come from the heart!In the end, he didn't stay with her for long, and he kindly ordered her to go back and have a good rest.Yao Cunhui sneered in his heart, thanked him submissively and generously and left.

Yao Shizan wanted to go to Luomeiyuan with Yao Cunhui, so Yao Cunhui sent Wu Jin back to his secluded residence, and the siblings went back together.

Red Polygonum was overjoyed to see Yao Cunhui again. Like Rong's mother, she almost shed tears. She hurriedly stepped forward to wait for Yao Cunhui to wash her face and hands. With that, the atmosphere among the three was very harmonious and harmonious.

Xiao Xing and Xiao Li had already been sent down to rest by Yao Cunhui, while Hong Zhi stood aside with her hands open, feeling a little dazed.In front of outsiders, Second Miss treats her no differently from Red Polygonum, but she knows very well in her heart that Second Miss already knew that she belonged to the wife and would never trust herself. .Hong Zhi felt a little desperate, following such a master, she was doomed not to get ahead, but she was secretly glad that the second young lady didn't send her away, otherwise, the madam would never forgive her.

After tidying up, Yao Cunhui smiled and brought Yao Shizan over. While the siblings were chatting at home, Yao Cunhui had checked Yao Shizan's homework for the past two months, and was very satisfied with the result.Zan'er finally lived up to her expectations, even though he kept shouting that he missed her and missed her so much, he never missed his homework.

Yao Shizan was very happy to hear her praise, tightly clutching her skirt with her small hands, blinking at her with black grape-like eyes, and begged: "Second sister, next time you go out, can you take me with you? I want to be with my second sister!"

Yao Cunhui's heart softened, and she stroked his head and said softly, "Then Zan'er must learn the skills quickly. When you grow up and learn the skills, my sister will take you with her when she goes out."

"really?"

"Of course!"

"Oh, Second Sister is so kind!" Yao Shizan cheered.

Mother Rong smiled kindly and shook her head slightly. Second Young Miss can really coax the Eldest Young Master. She only goes out once in a while. When will she go out again in the future?
Rong's mother was full of things to tell Yao Cunhui, so she smiled and went forward to coax Yao Shizan back, let the second sister rest, Yao Shizan tilted his head to think for a while, obediently agreed, Hong Liao sent him back to Fengmingxuan.

"Hong Zhi, help me go to the second gate to inquire, the master will tell me as soon as he comes back!" After sending Yao Shizan out, Yao Cunhui turned his head and gave Hong Zhi instructions.

Hongzhi bent her knees and said "yes" and turned around.

The room suddenly became quiet, and Rong's mother smiled and said: "Second Miss, are you tired? Go back to the room and rest for a while!"

Yao Cunhui shook his head: "I've been in the boat all this way, and I'm not tired at all. How is the mansion during this time? Did Mrs. Ma make things difficult for you and Zan'er?"

Rong's mother smiled and shook her head: "The old slave is fine, the fourth aunt's fetal gas has moved several times, the master ordered his wife to take care of the fourth aunt's pregnancy, the lady is so busy, how can she spare her time to take care of other things?" There must be one of the old slave and the red Polygonum in the Luomei courtyard, and there has never been no one for a while! The young master was ill once, but he just caught a cold and developed a little fever. Miss, don’t panic, the old slave is honest After guarding for two days, I quietly asked the woman outside the second door to take another medicine, and within two days, I was cured!"

Yao Cunhui's heart that suddenly became tense slowly sank, and found that the palms of his hands were covered with cold sweat, and said solemnly: "Why does Zan'er catch a cold and have a fever when she's fine?"

Yao Shizan is young and recovering from a serious illness and is undergoing recuperation. Yao Cunhui knows very well that a little ailment may turn into a major event!If he triggers his old disease again, this collapse, to put it bluntly, is really hopeless!Even if one life is recovered, the foundation is broken, and the future will be half useless.

Mother Rong sighed softly, and said quietly: "It was the second young lady who had been away for about half a month. At that time, the weather was hot, and the lotus flowers in the shallow water of Huanhua Lake were blooming very well. The young master went to pick lotus flowers to play. He refused to come up, so he just caught a cold! The old slave asked later, and it was the third lady who said that the lotus in the lake was blooming beautifully, and there were big carps in the water. After hearing this, the young master went down! Later, the madam knew That's it, the busy man brought the eldest young master up, and even reprimanded the third lady!"

Yao Cunhui sneered slightly, and tightened his palms, "Wu Jin? He doesn't care?"
