Yang Baochen saw that the team had stopped, and hurriedly looked over. Fang Zhun looked ahead and ignored him, and hurriedly rushed to the back of the team with his own head and hurried to the back of the team.

Xiaoyu heard the second brother call her back, slammed the reins, and the mount under her bent its front hooves and staggered five or six steps, and then turned around twice and stopped. Yang Baochen secretly admired in his heart, this equestrian skill is really one of the best.

Opposite the light rain, a group of people and horses galloped forward, and there seemed to be a woman sitting on the fast horse at the head, with a harmonious mouth and a dance, as if she was about to fall down at any time, followed closely by a dozen or twenty people.

Looking a little farther away, you can already see the wall and the big flag of the post station, the flag is embroidered with the word "post" of the big bucket, and it is raised high on the flagpole in the breeze.

Yang Baochen was shocked in his heart, although at this time, the royal family was vying for power, and the world was quite chaotic. The post station has never dared to act rashly, the emperor attached great importance to the post station when he was alive, and sometimes the post man was only negligent in management, and the death of a post horse could cause a catastrophe of death. How dare this gang rob the inn!? Their brethren on the mountain did not dare to think of it.

Yang Baochen just flickered his head, and saw that the tomboy of the Xia family had set up three arrows, pulled the bowstring and aimed at the person in front of his head. Yang Baochen frowned and scratched the beard on his cheeks, and sighed to himself: This kid is so virtuous, how can she be a woman?

The woman sat on her horse, and when she reached the light rain, she grabbed the reins, and without waiting for the horse to stop, she jumped off the horse in a hurry, and after a few steps she almost didn't fall, and the people behind her also caught up, and immediately a sturdy middle-aged man said angrily: "I will see the eldest lady soon, and it is not a step or two behind." It's like burning your ass in a hurry. ”

Xiao Yu smiled secretly in her heart, looked down at the woman carefully, and saw that she was wearing a moon-white cotton silk jacket on her upper body, and she was not wearing a riding costume on her lower body, but a new dark horse-faced skirt. A white and clean round face, a pair of apricot eyes are very refreshing. Seeing that this behavior didn't look like a bad person, Xiaoyu turned his wrist and pressed down on the bow and arrow in his hand.

The woman hurriedly glanced at everyone, then lowered her head and walked to the carriage without squinting and knelt down respectfully, and the middle-aged man behind her also walked a few steps forward and knelt down: "Xingji, Wang Quan has said hello to the eldest girl." ”

Mrs. Lu didn't know much about the Xia family, but the second sister-in-law knew that her mother-in-law's family had also been prominent, and it was not uncommon to have a servant with a head and a face. Even so, I can't help but wonder in my heart: according to what the second brother said, my mother-in-law doesn't seem to have much contact with her mother's family.

Xiao Xia's heart is also like a stormy wave. Xingji was the eldest maid when she was not out of the pavilion, and when the Xia family was set, it was not suitable for this eldest maid to follow her. Xingji himself fell in love with Wang Quan, the nursing home who escorted them all the way, and Xiao Xia's mother-in-law released the two together, and the husband and wife lived in Fengxiang City for a year, and when Brother Xia was born, they went to the northwest to run the dart bureau.

In previous years, Xingji only occasionally sent a cronie to greet him and pass on some news of his hometown, and even Xiaoxia's wife didn't want them to send it. Now that I came here in person, it was the first time that I had waited on the road.

Although Xiao Xia's face was still light and breezy, she couldn't help but have a bad premonition, and reached out to hit the curtain of the car, poked her head out and smiled: "Get up quickly!" It's almost summer, and it's still cold on the ground. He blamed Xingji again: "It's also a grandmother, and she's still so frizzy." ”

Xingji raised his head and quickly looked at the eldest lady who had been serving since childhood, a fair face, the angular outlines of his youth had been blurred at this time, and he only spoke softly as before. Thinking back to the time when the house was beautiful, the eldest girl hugged how many mothers-in-law and girls served on the side. Now that I am crowded in a car with so many people, and I have to make a curtain by myself, my nose is sour and tears are about to come down.

Mrs. Xiao Xia didn't know what she was thinking, and when she saw her get up, she covered the corners of her eyes with her hands, and seemed to have a look on her face. became more and more frightened, turned his head to look at the second brother and said, "Don't be afraid, this is an old man from the past, it couldn't be more appropriate, but this is not the place to talk, let's go to the post station first to settle down and then slowly catch up." “

Xingji and Wang Quan both lowered their hands and said yes, only Xia Xiucai snorted unhappily, and urged the second brother to hurry up and let everyone continue to hurry. Xingji, the people brought by Wang Quan and his wife didn't want to be greeted, and immediately dispersed to protect the Xia family's team inside.

Yang Baochen, the former bandit, glanced left and right, and couldn't help but estimate it in his heart. As the saying goes, the layman looks at the lively, the insider looks at the doorway, and the thief naturally has the vision of the thief. These 20 or so people, not to mention that they are all masters, but they are well-trained in their respective duties, and they cooperate tacitly in their actions, and they do not dare to provoke when they form a dart team.

The brothers of the Xia family couldn't help but be curious, thinking that the second brother was a few years older after all, so they all came to the second brother to inquire. Rushan relied on his young age, salivated and whispered: "Second uncle, who is this person, why have you never heard my grandmother mention it." “

The second brother scolded with a smile: "You sneaky thief, but you have the true inheritance of your little aunt." "There is not a word about the identity of Xingji. It's not that he sells it, he himself only vaguely knows that Xingji is his mother's maiden, and there is another one who seems to be called Xuanqi, no matter how much, he doesn't know.

When they arrived at the post station, Wang Quan's people were at the door. The second brother saw that there was a thin and tall man inside who was very familiar, and hurriedly separated the crowd and went over to salute. said in his mouth: "You and I are destined, why bother to stick to these vulgar rituals." ”

The second brother had no choice but to pull his younger siblings over to meet, it turned out that this person's surname was Pan Dan and his name was Xiaozi, and Wang Quan saw that they were going to greet each other and hurriedly came over to introduce them. This person is actually Wang Quan's nephew, no wonder he doesn't dare to inherit the second brother's teacher's courtesy. Starling and Rushan are both teenage boys, and when they are wild, they can't help but look curiously at the second brother's unnamed master.

When the post officer saw so many people coming outside, he was so anxious that he was about to cry. Fortunately, these people who walk the rivers and lakes are not picky, the second brother arranged Xia Xiucai and Xiao Xia Po to the upper room, and Xiao Yu and Mrs. Lu lived next to each other. Wang Quan and his second brother's brothers were all in a few rooms, and they soon settled down.

Xiaoyu originally followed the second brother to arrange the carriage and horse to the back, but she couldn't take care of it at this time, so she dropped her luggage and ran to Xiao Xia's mother-in-law, and saw Xia Xiucai come out of Xiao Xia's room with a straight face.

Xiaoyu was about to follow her father to ask what was going on, but she didn't want Xia Xiucai to see her coming, so she immediately turned around and buckled the door. Before Xiaoyu could react, Xia Xiucai pushed Xiaoyu forward and walked away.

Xiaoyu didn't watch out, his face was almost pressed into the door by Xia Xiucai, and he turned around to look at Xia Xiucai angrily, he had already walked away with his hands behind his back. A woman's voice came from the room: "Big lady, you slow down, presumably my uncle still has something to do." The door of the room was opened, but it was the middle-aged woman named Xingji who she had just met, Xiaoyu couldn't help frowning and looked at Xiao Xia's mother-in-law sitting inside: "Mother? ”

"This is a starling?" Xingji took a step back, and was about to kneel down and say goodbye.

Xiaoyu was startled, and hurriedly smiled and said, "No, I'm a young girl." “

"Oh, it's the eldest lady, this temperament is with you, girl."

Xiaoyu couldn't help but be stunned, and the family often said that Xiaoyu didn't follow Xiaoxia's temperament, and her demeanor was jumpy and not stable enough. But as soon as she said that she had a temperament with Xiao Xia's mother-in-law, her curiosity came up, and she hurriedly leaned over to ask what was going on.

Xiao Xia Pozi hurriedly cleared her throat, turned around and said angrily: "Xingji, the relationship between you and me for so many years of master and servant has long been over, and I am not the eldest lady of the year." Why do you bother to pay attention to these things, she deserves such a big gift from you as a little girl who is not in time. ”

looked at Xiaoyu again: "This is your Aunt Shen, who used to be my eldest maid." Speaking of which, it is also a love for growing up at a young age, thanks to her when I fled, otherwise there would be no you. Xiaoyu rolled her eyes, listening to her mother's tone behind her, she used to be a maid, and she was too polite, I was afraid that it would be inappropriate, so I walked over and said a good fortune seriously. When I looked up and saw Xiao Xia Pozi looking at her with a smile, I knew that I had guessed correctly.

Xingji's eyes turned red when he heard this, and his voice choked: "Hurry up." Hurry up, how does this make. He turned his head to Xiao Xia and said, "Big lady, what kind of person and what kind of identity are you, if it weren't for the third lady, her mother was confused......

Xiao Xia Pozi hurriedly coughed, and interrupted her quite harshly: "Life and death are fate, wealth is in the sky." I've forgotten all about the past, so you shouldn't have been so embarrassed because you didn't prepare a meeting gift for Xiaoyu. ”

Xingji's face turned red, and he didn't know whether to give it or not for a while. If you give a meeting gift today, it will not be a master-servant relationship with Xiao Xia in the future, and if you don't give a meeting gift, Xiaoyu is confused here, looking at her with a blank eye. In the end, I had to grit my teeth and hurriedly say, "Yes, yes." As he spoke, he took off a bracelet on his wrist and brought it to Xiaoyu.

Xiao Xia Pozi smiled and teased: "The condition is not bad." It can be seen that you are living a good life. Wang Quan really didn't let you down. ”

Xiao Xia looked back at Xiao Yu and wondered: "If you don't go to help your brother, what are you doing here." ”

Xiaoyu lowered her head and was rubbing the bracelet trying to understand what her mother said was very good, what a good way it was, and saw Xiao Xia Pozi shoot a knife in one eye, although she was reluctant, she could only mutter: "I'm not here to serve you to wash up." I had the heart to rub around here, and listened to a few more words, but I saw that Xiao Xia's face didn't loosen at all, so she had to walk out stupidly.

Xiaoyu, who still didn't give up, decided to listen to the corner at the door, and just heard it say: "It's just that you're here, comb me a peony bun later, although your craftsmanship is not as good as Xuanyu, but it's not bad." ”

Fang Zhun shouted downstairs again: "Xia Runshen!" Xia Jiuye!.
