Ajiu

Chapter 97
Ajiu smiled but said, "My grandfather's family, my maternal grandfather's family, everyone has something to do. It's really a coincidence. I thought that many relatives would come to pick us up when we disembarked at Dongbianmen. Brother Ten, I am disappointed."

Back then, my parents, brothers, and I got off the boat in Tongzhou, okay? My uncle went to pick us up in person, just as tirelessly.How far is Tongzhou, and how close is Dongbianmen? I thought that when I got off the boat, my father, uncle, and brothers would gather around me happily and look forward to it...

The Tenth Prince was a little embarrassed, "It's a coincidence that they all have something to do today. Junior Sister, in order to welcome you back, Brother Ten thought for a long time before he came up with this idea. You, do you like it?" He was a little apprehensive asked.

After this idea came up, I practiced it many times.The guard of honor, the guards, and the servants who spread the red felt, have already been coordinated and moved freely after many times of practice.The tenth prince personally supervised these people to practice, so that the younger junior sister could feel the grand welcome of the tenth brother as soon as she set foot on the land of the capital.

Ajiu smiled, "I like it, the pomp is imposing, and it greatly satisfies my vanity. However, I still want to see my dad and uncle, and my relatives. Brother Ten, am I greedy? "

The tenth prince smiled slightly, "How could it be?" Junior sister, after six years of separation, you have grown from a white and cute little girl to a slim young girl, but you are as frank and forthright as ever.Is there any young lady who would say that she is vain and greedy like you?Junior sister, you are as clear and luscious as a clear spring, so... so beautiful and lovely.

Ajiu Yanran, "Brother Ten, you seem to have learned to cherish ink like gold. A letter, you can have only two words, or a sentence, or only two words."

He once wrote a letter, the letter only had two short words, "How come?" Now when he talks face to face, there are still only two words, "How?" His Royal Highness King Wei, you have really learned to cherish ink like gold.

The tenth prince smiled cheerfully, "Compared to Junior Sister, Brother Ten is still far behind. Junior Sister, you have a letter with only one word."

The obedient word "um" made Brother Ten feel numb in his heart, wishing to fly to Gusu to find you, just to see you, just to hear you say this word with his own ears.Little Junior Sister, Brother Ten misses you so much.

The tenth prince and the younger junior sister met and talked for a while before the casually dressed Jin Yiwei released Second Master Pei, Lin Youhui and Pei Qi and Pei Yu over.Second Master Pei and others wanted to pay their respects to the tenth prince, but the tenth prince stopped him with a smile, "Teacher, mistress, why should we pay attention to these vulgar etiquettes?" The little junior sister was not very happy to see her father, uncle and brothers coming to pick her up Well, I don't dare to make her unhappy anymore.

Second Master Pei gave in a few words, and Lin Youhui smiled, "His Royal Highness, the etiquette cannot be dismissed." The tenth prince looked at the teacher's wife's smile, his scalp was numb, and he hurriedly stepped forward, "Teacher, teacher, please .”

Walking through the long red carpet, there are several small wooden houses and a spacious and bright living room in front of you.The members of the Pei family were first invited to wash and change in the wooden house, and then went to the living room.The living room is equipped with delicious food and wine. Knowing that they are tired from the journey, they are all light dishes, which makes people look appetizing at a glance.

Ajiu changed into a light purple dress, elegant and graceful, soft and moving.

The tenth prince couldn't help but glanced at her, and then at her again, his eyes were burning like thieves.Lin Youhui snorted, "His Highness King Wei's kind hospitality, my husband and I are inexplicably grateful. However, the little girl is already a big girl, so it is inconvenient to sit with His Highness King Wei again." Order Chu He and Zai He to take Ajiu out, in the neighborhood wait.Ah Jiu obediently agreed, "Yes, mother." She took two maids and was about to go out.

The servant cleverly stood in front of Ajiu, with a smile all over his face, and peeked at the tenth prince.The tenth prince blushed slightly, "Teacher's wife, my junior sister and I are from the same school, besides, my junior sister has not yet reached the age of the crown, and I have not yet reached the age of weak crown..." As he spoke, the tenth prince himself felt that the reason was not sufficient, Looking at Second Master Pei for help, "Teacher, please help me talk." Second Master Pei smiled, "I'm sorry, my wife is in charge of the house, and she has the final say on everything." The tenth prince looked at Second Master Pei. The master gloated and felt aggrieved, "Teacher, I am your student, and my junior sister is also your student..." You just accepted these two students, so I can't have preferential treatment.

In the end, a compromise was made, and a large screen was erected next to the large table, and a small table was placed behind the screen, and Ajiu sat alone.In this way, Lin Youhui reluctantly nodded.

The dishes were very tasty, and Ajiu sat alone behind the screen and ate heartily.From time to time, the tenth prince wanted to take a look behind the screen, but was caught by Lin Youhui's sharp eyes, and he didn't dare to do anything wrong.

The teacher's wife is so powerful, if she is not careful, maybe she will insist on asking the junior sister to go to the neighbor, wouldn't it be even worse?Although I can't see her now, at least it's under the same roof. It's always good to be closer to her.

"Teacher, please strengthen your husband." The tenth prince begged Second Master Pei in a low voice.

"No, I just like to listen to her." Second Master Pei looked calm.

The Tenth Prince lost his temper.

After enjoying the delicious food, remove the leftovers and replace them with fragrant tea.In the Ding Kiln white porcelain tea cup with white body color and lustrous glaze, green leaves are flying, and the fragrance is like orchid, refreshing and long. "Master, this is your favorite Shifeng Longjing." The tenth prince said courteously.

Lin Youhui was polite, "Thank you for your hospitality, Your Highness King Wei. Your Highness has been out of the palace for a long time, may I ask when you will go back?" The tenth prince is still living in Dongsan at the moment, and has not yet opened his residence.In fact, it is not impossible for him to start a mansion by himself at his age, but who made the emperor like him so much that he would not want him to leave.

The tenth prince reluctantly said, "I'll be back now." Looking at the time, there was indeed no delay, so I had to say goodbye to my teacher and teacher's wife, and said goodbye to my junior sister through the screen, and walked away at every step.

He didn't dare to ask to see Ajiu, because Second Master Pei had just told him, "The little girl listens to her mother the most. If her mother said, 'You are not allowed to see the tenth highness in the future', the little girl will really disappear." The tenth prince He didn't believe it all, but he didn't dare to take the risk.

After the Tenth Prince left, Jin Yiwei and others in casual clothes also withdrew.

Ajiu came out from behind the screen, smiling, "What did we bet on just now, half a catty of melon seeds, right? It looks like no one has won. Dad said Daddy will come, Mother said uncle will come, In the end, no one came."

As soon as she finished speaking, the door of the hall opened wide, Uncle Pei and Lin Yan came together hand in hand, their appearance was intimate.Ajiu's eyes widened in surprise, "Daddy, aren't you lecturing for the thirteenth prince? Uncle, don't you have urgent business?" Why did they all come, unexpectedly.

Second Master Pei stood up with a smile, and patted his daughter with a kiss, "Little Ajiu, half a catty of melon seeds, don't forget." Jiu, "Good girl, for Mother's share, I want the peppermint flavor." Ajiu nodded hastily, "Sure, mint flavor."

The relatives reunited after a long absence, let alone this joy.Uncle Pei was very relieved to see his second brother's family was safe and sound, and Ajiu's crisp "Daddy" almost brought him to tears, "Daughter, I haven't heard you called Daddy for six years!" Lin Yan The older he is, the more elegant he is. Ah Jiu is very happy to see his uncle who is a top student and handsome man. He ran over to say hello and sweetly called "Uncle".Lin Yan looked at her with a smile, "Our little Ajiu has grown into a big girl, she looks really good-looking." Ajiu was very proud, "Uncle, you have a good eye, you said you are pretty, then I will definitely It's really beautiful!" The self-satisfied appearance is hilarious.

While talking, Pei Wei, Pei Jue and others also came.I met Pei Erye and his wife, and talked about the warmth and coldness with Pei Qi and Pei Yu. The brothers surrounded Ajiu and exclaimed, "Who is this girl? It is as bright as the sun rising from the morning glow, and as bright as a flower coming out of Lubo. It is a fairy who is too lonely in the sky." Did you come down to play?" Ajiu smiled at the praise, and was overjoyed.

"I didn't expect that the eldest brother has a sister-in-law, and the second brother has a second sister-in-law. I'm still treated like this." Ajiu sighed.

Pei Wei has already married Qi Yingying, the granddaughter of his grandfather's friend. The couple met each other when they were young.After marriage, the two husbands and wives have a deep affection, raising eyebrows together, and living a small life like honey.

The second elder brother Pei Jue also married a wife the year before last.The wife is Gu's distant niece, so let's call her Little Gu.Xiao Gu was born in a wealthy family in the south of the Yangtze River. He is smart and intelligent, and belongs to the kind of people with long sleeves, good dancing and exquisite skills.After she married into the Pei family, her relationship with Pei Jue was also very good, and the husband and wife got along well.

Pei Wei and Pei Jue each have two sons, but no daughter yet.

The two elder brothers laughed when they heard Ajiu's jokes, "Sister, your sisters-in-law like you too." After Qi Yingying came in, Ajiu went to Suzhou. The two sisters-in-law are very good friends.Little Gu is a smart person, knowing that there is only one precious girl in Pei's family, Ajiu, she is very affectionate to Ajiu.Although she has never met Ajiu, she always has special gifts for Ajiu every year and festival, and she doesn't miss any of the clothes and accessories that girls in the capital love.

"It can't be helped, I invite people to see you." Ajiu giggled.

A middle-aged man in his 40s and a teenager about fifteen or sixteen years old appeared at the door.This middle-aged man was dressed in a green shirt, and he was upright and upright, but the young man was dressed in luxurious clothes, which was quite particular.

"Second brother!" Lin Youhui called out in surprise, and quickly walked up to him.This middle-aged man is Lin Youhui's second brother Lin Ti.Lin Ti has worked in the Northwest for many years, his complexion is a bit dark and heroic, he doesn't look like a scholar, but has the demeanor of a general.He looked at Lin Youhui with a smile, "little sister, if you stay young like this, you won't be like my sister, but like my niece." Lin Youhui said sweetly, "I haven't seen you for many years, but my second brother is still so funny."

Lin Ti smiled, pulled Pei Qi to look at it first, and nodded with satisfaction, "My nephew looks good, just like me." In fact, Pei Qi is fair and refined, and a bit rigid, but he is dark, heroic, chatting and laughing. Like?However, Pei Qi is a well-behaved person, and bowed respectfully, "Yes, Second Uncle."

Pulling Pei Yuan to look at it again, she was even more satisfied, "This kid has clever features, just like me." Pei Yuan smiled, "It's my honor to be like the second uncle." Lin Ti saw that his words were clever, informal, and vigorous Pat him on the shoulder appreciatively.

When he arrived at Ah Jiu, his eyes widened in surprise, and he didn't speak for a while.He looked in front of Ajiu for a while, and with his hands behind his back, he slowly walked behind Ajiu, and then walked back, with a serious expression on his face.With a smile on the corner of Ajiu's lips, she turned around lightly, "Second Uncle, you don't need to turn around, I will turn around!" She stopped and looked at Lin Ti mischievously, with a childish look on her face.

Lin Ti sighed, "Unfortunately, I only have two sons. The elder son is already married, and the younger son is only five years old!" Son.

Is the little boy so playful and interesting?Ah Jiu smiled happily.Second uncle, my third father loves to joke, and so do you. It's very funny when we meet.

The boy brought by Lin Ti is the youngest son of Lin Youlan, Lin Youhui's elder sister, named Sun Pengcheng.Lin Youhui hadn't seen her sister for many years, and knew that this was her little nephew, so she pulled her over and looked at her, with tears in her eyes, "Good boy, your facial features are somewhat similar to your mother's."

Sun Pengcheng bowed politely, "It's not convenient for my mother to come, so I specially asked me to meet my uncle, aunt, cousin, and cousin." Although his father was a civil servant, he came from the Huininghou Mansion. It is impossible to pick up my sister from the pier.

Lin Youhui greeted the eldest sister and the elders of Huining Hou Mansion one by one, expressing concern.Sun Pengcheng was very polite, he would answer whatever Lin Youhui asked.

While talking, someone from the Pei family urged, "The master is back home. The master said that if the second master and the second mistress want to sit at the pier for a while, or want to visit the Yinding Bridge, it is all right, and they will not return to Jiuning at night." The street is also available. However, Miss Jiu has to go back first, and the master and wife are waiting eagerly."

Lin Ti smiled unkindly, "Little sister, sister-in-law, let's go with the second brother, Pei Shibo and aunt can do it with you or without you. Aqi and Ayu come here, and I will go with my uncle to meet my grandfather and grandmother." Lin Yan shook her head with a smile , "How can that be? If you don't bring Ajiu, who will allow them to enter the door." Second Master Pei and Lin Youhui are so dizzy, dare not bring their precious girl, Yinding Bridge will not allow us to enter the door?
Uncle Pei didn't like to joke, so he joined in the fun at the moment, "Ajiu, come here and go back with Daddy. Daddy doesn't care about your father, mother, and brothers. Anyway, no one cares about them."

Talking and laughing, a group of people left the living room, ready to go home.

"Little sister, rest at home tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, and go back to Yinding Bridge at the latest." Before parting, Lin Yan explained to her sister and brother-in-law.

Second Master Pei smiled and agreed, "Yes, brother-in-law. Maybe we will go tomorrow, or maybe." Lin Yan was very satisfied and smiled without saying a word.Brother-in-law, I know that it is very hard for you to come from a long distance, but if you can come, it is better to come early, parents are looking forward to it.

After saying goodbye, the man got on the horse, and Lin Youhui and Ajiu got into the carriage.

"I'm going to meet my grandparents!" Ajiu grinned.

"There are also little nephews." Lin Youhui also smiled, "Ajiu, your elder brother and second brother have two sons each, and you have four little nephews, you should prepare four greeting gifts."

Ajiu nodded without hesitation, "I'll give it! I'd be willing to give such an expensive meeting gift! Mom, I really like my little nephew."

"Oh?" Lin Youhui looked at her suspiciously.Daughter, really?
"Really, I like my little nephew!" Ajiu nodded vigorously, "Mother, it's my little nephew, not my little niece!"

Ajiu, you... Lin Youhui took a stone blue backrest, and leaned weakly on the carriage.
