Chapter Seventy-Two: Slowly Returning (Third Watch)

It's the beginning of September, and the sun is shining on the Grand Canal leading to Kyoshi. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Three magnificent official ships lined up on the sparkling canal, and on the bank was a bustling city, and from time to time someone stopped to point at the fleet, talking about which dignitaries would be.

"Back to the eldest princess, now we have arrived in Tongzhou, and in half an hour, we will be able to reach the capital. In the middle of the big boat, Min Yuan leaned on the beauty couch, a little maid sat on the ground and gently beat her legs, and next to her stood a young woman in pale yellow clothes.

"After so many years of living in the Grange, it's a shame that you still know so much about what is going on outside. Min Yuan looked at Danju with a smile and praised. She has been riding a carriage back and forth for so many years, it has become a habit, and she does not plan to change it, but Danzhu said that in recent years, it has been very convenient to sail on the canal, faster than by land, and she asked Yuanyuan, she is not seasick, then it is another comfortable benefit. In contrast, she naturally chose to take a boat.

Danzhu, this girl, is very active and used properly, so she must be a good helper.

Danzhu didn't dare to listen to it, and complimented Min Yuan without a trace.

Min Yuan was in a good mood, thinking of his daughter who hadn't shown up for a while, so he asked, "Where is the county lord?"

The county lord pulled the Zisheng girl to ask about the fun things in the house, and the Zisheng girl was in line with the county lord's eyes. ”

Min Yuan nodded: "That's fine." ”

Dan Zhu's eyes flashed when he heard this, and he accompanied Min Yuan to talk for a while before retreating.

In the cabin on the other side.

“…… In this way, the big sister is very good, isn't she?" Yiying propped her chin and smiled at Zisheng, who was sitting opposite.

Half Moon sat on the other side, only listening quietly, with a smile on her face, and from time to time she refilled tea and water for the two of them.

Zisheng nodded and said, "Although the eldest lady has a reputation for being domineering outside, she is really protective of her sister too much, and it is inevitable that she will have conflicts with others, but she is really good to the people in the family." ”

She has been serving by the eldest princess's side for many years, and she wholeheartedly hopes that she will be well, and if the returning county lord can not conflict with the eldest lady who is the heir, and let the eldest princess have less troubles, it is what she wants to see the most. Moreover, the eldest lady is more straightforward with her external temperament, and she still has nothing to say about her character.

Yiying smiled when she heard this, she was indeed very interested in this big sister now. Zisheng never spoke loudly, looked very quiet, and never embarrassed others, but for the third lady Xue Yixuan, he slapped the daughter of the Fang family of the Guogong Mansion, fortunately, the eldest princess came forward to protect her, but now the two are on the same page, and they are tense as soon as they meet.

The young lady of the Fang family is a chili pepper, and she told the whole circle of nobles about Xue Yichen's bullying of her, but most of the noblewomen in the capital have a delicate heart, and they just laugh it off.

After asking about her father's brother and this cheap eldest sister, she asked her nominal grandmother, Mrs. Yu: "Sister Zisheng, when I go back to the Xue family, do you want to go and say hello to my grandmother?"

Zisheng was stunned, and after a while, he said, "Let's see what the eldest princess says when the county lord arrives, the slave maid guesses that it is probably not necessary......"

Yi Ying frowned, although the Yu family was the sister of Yu Guifei back then, but if filial piety is respected in today's dynasty, his father is the top level among the hundred officials, plus his identity is the heir, and his status is embarrassing, so it is a little unreasonable to treat the Yu family lightly. There must be an article in this.

She had the intention of breaking the sand pot and asking to the end, pressing step by step, and a few words made Zisheng unable to resist, so she glanced at Banyue, and stopped talking.

Seeing this, Yi Ying smiled: "It's okay, there are no outsiders here." After nearly a day of close proximity, her experience in two lives told her that half a moon is worth using.

Half Moon wanted to retreat when she received Zisheng's eyes, but when she heard Yiying's words, she was stunned and showed a warm smile.

Zisheng nodded secretly, since the county lord trusted her, she didn't have to say anything, Xue Mansion was really a new environment for the current county lord, and it was also a good thing to have someone around who could put her heart to heart. Only by knowing how to control people can you become a veritable noblewoman.

She euphemistically agreed to talk about the old things of the year, the more Yi Ying listened, the more ugly her face became, she was still young when she was lost, and she didn't know anything about this kind of thing in the house, and her mother never mentioned it to her in her previous life, she never knew that Yu dared to ......

For a moment, she somewhat understood the reason for the slaughter of her family today.

She clenched her fists, her eyes were cold, she would never allow this kind of person to be presumptuous in the Xue family again.

Guanghua Li Xue family.

"Hurry up, hurry up, the county lord is coming back soon, how can you let the county lord live in it today?" a woman stood under the wall, reprimanding the craftsmen who were repairing the roof and walls on the ladder.

One of the leaders said with a bitter face: "Mother Zhang, the little ones who were only notified in the morning, how can this Xiyuan be abandoned for so long, overnight, how can it be taken care of?"

Zhang's mother didn't give up, crossed her waist and said, "Don't you claim to be the best bricklayer in the city?

The carpenter swallowed, this yard is still small, bigger than an ordinary official's house, right? Although the inside of this house is well kept, but the outside is really overgrown with weeds, and many tiles have also fallen off the paint, so how can you catch up this afternoon?

He didn't dare to answer, Zhang's mother wanted to say more, but she heard a warm voice sound: "You don't have to dare like this, you guys are so good to repair and take care of this yard more exquisitely, Zhaoyuan will come back and live with her mother for a few days, anyway, there is a wing room in the upper room." ”

Mother Zhang hurriedly turned around and said respectfully: "I've seen the master." ”

"Hmm. Xue Wenfu nodded, looking at the courtyard in front of him with some nostalgia. Min Yuan was in this courtyard and gave birth to Zhaoyuan, the doctor said that the mother should not move the place, so he accompanied them to live in this Mu Xiting, who knew that after Zhaoyuan had a little consciousness, he refused to leave this courtyard. Min Yuan felt sorry for her, so he also lived in this Tingzhou until she was four years old......

Now that he thinks about it, he doesn't want to remember that nightmare year. He and Min Won went crazy and used all kinds of means to find her, but there was no news at all...... For the first time, I experienced the long process from hope to despair.

Since then, they have moved back to the upper room, ordered regular cleaning, and never set foot in this sad place again. Mu Xiting was facing the door of the upper room, which was also locked by him with a heavy copper lock......

I really can't imagine that nine years later, this place will have a chance to see the light of day again. He hooked the corners of his mouth, and his eyebrows were rarely fully stretched.

The bricklayer was very grateful, and stepped forward and said, "Thank you Lord Xue for your understanding, the little ones must have repaired this courtyard beautifully......

Xue Wenfu nodded with a smile, and suddenly heard a voice: "Dad, someone from the outer courtyard came to report that Mother's boat was about to arrive!"

The black-robed young man walked quickly towards Xue Wenfu, his eyes bright.

Xue Wenfu's eyes also lit up, he flicked his sleeves, and said with a smile: "Let's go, let's ride a horse to pick up your mother and sister, don't let your grandmother take the lead." ”

"Hey!" Xue Licheng smiled heartily, and strode with his father towards the stable outside the second gate.

After a while, the sound of horses' hooves was heard on the street in Guanghuali, and the road was dusty, and pedestrians all looked sideways.

The wood blossoms bloom, and the children slowly return.
