After the two discussed, Gao Gao Yang arranged for his henchman to receive the money and personally deliver it to the head of the guard, saying that it was a thank you gift from the master.

This leader was originally for the sake of the Xu family, so he did his best. I didn't expect such an unexpected gain, and I was very happy. secretly thought that it was really a family, and the Xu family was all generous and polite.

After getting off the dock, Xu Changrong walked with his head, followed by Gao Gao Yang who was supported by the maid. The nurse walked behind with the little lady they had in office, as well as the concubine he accepted when he was in office, the henchman sent by Gong Shangshu for him, the subordinates, the servants, and so on.

There were more than a dozen people in the group, and it was very eye-catching when they got off the boat.

When Xu Le'an saw it, he hurriedly greeted him, and asked, "But the second master has arrived?" ”

He was young, and when Xu Changrong went to Sangquan County to take up his post, he was just a subordinate of the Xu family running errands in the outer courtyard. I have only seen Xu Changrong a few times from afar, and I don't really recognize it.

Xu Changrong nodded, and from the letters, he knew that his mother used this young housekeeper quite a lot.

"The second master can be regarded as here." Xu Le'an smiled and led the group to the parked carriage.

"Ever since I received the letter, the old lady has been looking forward to it every day." Xu Le'an said: "I sent the villain to wait on this dock a few days ago, can I count the second master here?" ”

Facing Xu Changrong's family, he got into the first tung oil carriage, and the nurse, master, and servant women in the back were all accommodated.

Xu Le'an is flexible and effective. I have been a housekeeper for a few years, and I don't know how many people have been sent to. This little thing is naturally not a problem.

After just a cup of tea, he loaded the people and luggage into the car and sat on the wheel of the first carriage. With the sound of the coachman's "driving", the convoy set off slowly.

Xu Le'an introduced the situation in Beijing to Xu Changrong through the curtain of the car.

"Second master, our family is located in Zeshan Fang. It is not far from Nanshi, and it is convenient to get around. In the past two years, I bought two houses next door and opened them together, but it is also quiet. ”

"The old lady said that the second master is a scholar. I cleaned up the yard next to the back garden and came out, and the scenery was good and not noisy. said that when the second master came, he would inscribe the courtyard. ”

Xu Changrong listened with a smile, thinking about his mother, who he hadn't seen for several years, and couldn't wait to immediately insert his wings and fly in front of her.

When the Xu family was in the most difficult time, he failed to accompany his mother. Once an official takes up his post, if he leaves his post without authorization, he can be imprisoned and sentenced, and his career will be over immediately.

Xu Changrong is not afraid of losing his official position, nor is he afraid of going to prison. As soon as he heard that his eldest brother and nephew had an accident, he immediately set off for Suzhou.

It was Gao Gao Yang who persuaded him hard for a few days, and then a letter from the master completely dispelled this idea.

The letter said that Xu Changzong has been imprisoned, and your mother will have a son for you. If you insist on going your own way and go to prison, are you not going to force your mother to death? It seems to be filial, but in fact it is pedantic, disloyal and unfilial!

The letter woke him up, and Xu Changrong had to endure the thought of going home. sent someone back to Suzhou, and asked the teacher to help him in Beijing in the same year. He continued to stay in Sangquan County and did a good job of this county order with trepidation.

Fortunately, in the spring of the following year, I received good news. The eldest brother and nephew were released, and the eldest brother was also sealed as the master of the brocade workshop.

The next good news came one after another, and he finally successfully entered Beijing to sue for his post by virtue of his "outstanding" evaluation for several consecutive years.

This time in Beijing, Xu Changrong can be regarded as high-spirited. But thinking about the old mother's voice and smile, I regret that in the most difficult moment of the Xu family, I was far away in Sangquan.

The so-called cowardice of the hometown, in fact, it is not the township that is timid, but the relatives who have not been seen for a long time!

The carriage turned around and drove from the dock into the capital. Hearing the hustle and bustle outside, the three-year-old daughter was sleeping soundly in her mother's arms. About half an hour later, the carriage finally stopped.

Xu Changrong jumped out of the car, and the eyes were filled with the weather-beaten face of the eldest brother.

"Big brother ......" just shouted this time, and Xu Changrong choked up. Hot tears are in my eyes, and it is a fluke to see my eldest brother again!

"Second brother!" Hearing that Xu Changrong had arrived at the dock, he deliberately took leave and hurried back.

The two hugged each other tightly, Xu Changzong patted him on the back and said, "Just come back!" When you come back this time, don't go again. ”

The two brothers have been separated for several years, and each has had its own experience. Looking at each other's familiar and unfamiliar faces, they couldn't help but look at each other and laugh.

This is from the bond between the blood, no matter how far apart or how long it has elapsed, it is still familiar to meet again.

"I've seen Uncle." HD Yang hugged his daughter and stepped forward to salute.

"Good, good!" Xu Changzong smiled and asked, "This is the Wanyi mentioned in the letter, right?" What a pretty little girl. When my mother saw it, she didn't know how to be happy! ”

Xu Wanyi had just woken up, her little face flushed. Stretched out his little hand and rubbed his eyes, staring around in a daze, his little appearance was very cute.

"Wanyi, we're home!" HD Yang coaxed softly.

"Mother, you're home!" Her voice is sweet and waxy, and it sounds so good. "Can you see your grandmother?" HD Jan told her that there were a lot of delicious foods in her grandmother's place, and the little girl was worried about them all the way.

Xu Wenmin and Zhu, who were standing behind Xu Changzong, also stepped forward to greet the second uncle and aunt. Zhu looked at the lovely Xu Wanyi of ice and snow, and couldn't take his eyes off it.

She has been married for almost half a year, and her mother-in-law is loving and considerate to her husband. The only fly in the ointment is that I have not been able to conceive a child.

"Second uncle, let's go in quickly! I'm afraid my grandmother is in a hurry. Xu Wenmin said with a smile.

……

Old Madam Xu had already received the letter and waited in Ronghui Hall. If it weren't for the reason for the mother to welcome her son, she would have gone out a long time ago.

"Mother! The unfilial son is back! Xu Changrong took three steps and made two steps, strode into the Ronghui Hall, and fell to the ground with a pop.

"Failing to serve by the mother's side is a child who is unfilial!" Looking at his mother's much older face, Xu Changrong's heart was sour and tears filled his eyes.

Gao Gao Yang knelt down with Xu Wanyi in his arms and said, "Mother, my daughter-in-law is back!" ”

Looking at her son and daughter-in-law kneeling at her feet, Mrs. Xu was so excited that she burst into tears, and said again and again: "Good, good!" It's good to be back! ”

Wiping his tears with his hands, he stepped forward to help the two of them up.

Xu Wanyi opened her big black and white eyes in her mother's eyes, and asked sweetly, "Are you my grandmother?" "Saying that, he bowed his hands in a good way.

Old Madam Xu's attention was instantly attracted by this little guy, and she teased her with a smile: "Ouch, where did such a beautiful female doll come from, is it my good granddaughter?" ”

Xu Wanyi was a little confused when she heard it, and she couldn't help but look at her mother. Gao Yang nodded affirmatively at her, "Call Grandmother." ”
