Qiao Zhao got off the boat, and a young man dressed as a servant flew over: "Third girl, you can count it back!"

Qiao Zhao had a good memory, and remembered that the manservant in front of him was the old Zhang Tou who fed the horses in the front yard. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Why is Uncle Zhang here?"

Uncle Zhang was obviously very happy to see Qiao Zhao, and explained: "Isn't this the month of Layue, the old lady of the family is thinking that you may come back one day, so let the old slave come to the dock every day to guard it." ”

Qiao Zhao's heart warmed, and he turned around to look at Shao Mingyuan.

"I'll take someone to face the saint, you go home first. Shao Mingyuan hid the reluctance in his eyes and said softly.

"That's right, Miss Li, you go back first, Shixi and I will go to the palace to see the Queen Mother, and when the Queen Mother summons us, you will enter the palace again." ”

Qiao Zhao bowed his head, thought for a while and told Shao Mingyuan: "Those rescued women have to follow me, just stay in the Champion Hou Mansion first, you can arrange some things for them to do casually." ”

"Okay, don't worry, I'll arrange it. ”

Zhu Yan watched the interaction between Qiao Zhao and Shao Mingyuan coldly on the side, and was puzzled, and looked at Yang Houcheng with inquiring eyes.

Yang Houcheng coughed lightly and blinked.

Zhu Yan had to suppress his doubts and not ask.

On the way back, Qiao Zhao couldn't help but ask the old servant, "How is the old lady?"

"Don't worry, the third girl, the old lady is in good spirits. ”

"Where's the wife?"

"My wife is in good health, the doctor said that this baby is very stable, and the third girl will have a younger brother to hold in the coming year. ”

Qiao Zhao smiled: "Where's the eldest master?"

"My lord—" The old servant paused.

Qiao Zhao smiled: "Is there something wrong with the eldest master?"

"There's nothing wrong with the big man—"

Uncle Zhang said that it was. ”

"The big man is not a big deal, it's just that a few days ago, I played chess with someone, and I got into a fight with someone, and the other party drank some wine and beat the big man uncontrollably. Seeing Qiao Zhao's face change slightly, the old servant hurriedly said, "Don't worry, third girl, the eldest master is not injured, and he has half a month's vacation for this." ”

Qiao Zhao felt wrong when he heard it: "Playing chess and fighting, can you have half a month of vacation?"

The old servant smiled: "The one who beats the big master is the Hanlin Courtyard." ”

Qiao Zhao: "......"

"How are the others?"

"We're all fine in Xifu, but I'm worried about you when you're away. However, the fellow of Dongfu is not very good, and his eyes are completely blind......"

"By the way, the family also received news that the second master will return to Beijing to report on his work, and he will be there in a few days......"

Qiao Zhao patiently listened to the old servant's narration, and when he returned to Loei, he already had a general understanding of the situation at home.

The winter in the capital is much colder than in the south, and the earth dragon has been burned in the Qingsong Hall, and the eldest wife He and the second wife Liu have stayed there to discuss the New Year with Mrs. Deng.

The second old man Li Guangshu has been outside for several years, this is the first time in several years to return to Beijing for the New Year, for the people of Xifu, this year's New Year is more grand than in previous years.

The second wife, Liu, was full of joy at the corners of her eyebrows and eyes, and asked Mrs. Deng to look at the long purchase list: "Old lady, do you see if there is any flaw in the list prepared by your daughter-in-law?"

Mrs. Deng glanced at it, saw that the specifications were higher than in previous years, and did not raise any objections, and nodded: "Just do this." Eldest daughter-in-law, have you prepared your gift list?"

Without waiting for He's response, Mrs. Deng shouted again: "Eldest daughter-in-law?"

Only then did He Shi react: "Old lady, you call me?"

"Eldest daughter-in-law, what do you want?"

He touched his bulging abdomen and looked worried: "Old lady, I had a dream yesterday, I dreamed that my Zhaozhao was taken away by a big black eagle, and I was so scared that I didn't sleep much all night, you said that nothing happened to Zhaozhao, right?"

Without waiting for Mrs. Deng to speak, Liu opened her mouth and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, haven't you heard that dreams are all the opposite, the third girl must be fine, maybe, she is already on her way home." ”

Before Liu's words fell, the eldest girl Qingyun ran in quickly, and smiled before speaking: "Old lady, the third girl is back!"

Old Madam Deng stood up suddenly: "Really?"

He raised his feet and walked out, but was pulled by Mrs. Deng: "Slow down, beware of the child in your belly." ”

After Mrs. Deng finished speaking, she rushed out over He's arrows.

Loei has not changed much, but the greenery in the courtyard has lost its color, and the bluestone pavement has been cleaned.

Qiao Zhao saw Old Madam Deng walking out, hurriedly greeted her, and made a big salute: "Grandmother, granddaughter is back." ”

Old Madam Deng hurriedly pulled Qiao Zhao up, looked her up and down, and breathed a sigh of relief: "It's good to come back, it's good to come back." It's cold outside, go back to the house and talk. ”

Before Qiao Zhao could speak, he was hugged by He Shi and cried: "Why is my Zhao Zhao so skinny?

He glared at Binglu and Ah Zhu in dissatisfaction, and was dumbfounded at this look.

Compared with Binglu and Azhu, the baby daughter's complexion is quite good.

"Didn't you go to collect medicine on the orders of the Queen Mother, don't you care about food?"

Mrs. Deng coughed: "Okay, let's go back to the house." ”

The Qingsong Hall was as warm as spring, and Qiao Zhao felt hot as soon as he entered, so he took off his coat and handed it to Ah Zhu, and instructed: "You two go back to the West Cross Courtyard to rest first, it's been hard these days." ”

Mrs. Deng and the others sat down, and Qiao Zhao gave the elders a salute one by one.

"Is it going well?" asked Mrs. Deng.

"Well, the medicine has been brought back. Qiao Zhao greeted his happy face, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Tell my grandmother something happy, Grandpa Li is still alive, and his granddaughter met his old man on her southward journey this time." ”

"Really?" Old Madam Deng was overjoyed and clasped her hands together, "God forbid, I'll just say that a living immortal like Doctor Li will be fine......

Next, Mrs. Deng and the three of them pulled Qiao Zhao to ask non-stop, and Qiao Zhao picked up everything he could say.

She was articulate and talked about the customs and customs of the south, and the three of Mrs. Deng couldn't take their eyes off it, until an eager man's voice came from the door: "Is Zhaozhao back?"

Qiao Zhao hurriedly stood up and looked at the door: "Father-"

Li Guangwen walked in quickly.

I haven't seen him for a few months, and Master Li's demeanor is still the same, but the bruises at the corners of his eyes have damaged his image a little.

"Zhao Zhao has lost weight. In front of Mrs. Deng and the others, Li Guangwen tried his best to put on a calm appearance, looked at Qiao Zhao for a long time and sighed.

Qiao Zhao smiled: "It's not as comfortable as at home when you go out, and you'll be fat back in a few days." ”

Mrs. Deng reacted at this time, and hurriedly instructed Qingyun to inform the kitchen to prepare a first-class banquet, urging Qiao Zhao to wash.

He accompanied Qiao Zhao back to Yahe Garden, his eyes fell on the moon gate in the east, and he bit his daughter's ear and said: "Your grandmother chose a family for Li Jiao, and she doesn't discuss relatives in Layue, and plans to settle it in the spring next year." ”
