The procession escorting the princess back to her hometown traveled south from the waterway, but due to a heavy rain on the way, it took five or six days to reach Suzhou Mansion at an unusually fast pace.
When he saw that the real body had already appeared on the dock in the distance, Tu Yuanting dragged his body a little swaying because of seasickness, and sighed, "This is finally looking at the flat ground, and if the master doesn't take the boat in the future, he will simply kill people." ”
Xiaodouzi next to him was also pale, sitting on the board of the boat and spitting bitterness.
"The master said that the slave will be able to eat and drink spicy food with the sixteenth master, but he didn't think that he could taste the fragrant spicy food, but he even spit out the bitter gall."
"Are you still panicking?" Tu Yuanting said angrily: "Ye didn't want you, what's the use of a little kid, Ye can't stand Xiao Dezi from saying all the good things, and praising you as an apprentice is like a flower, what's the result, people don't have a master porcelain, what's the use of asking you kid?" ”
Seeing that the two children were okay, they quarreled again, and Aunt He, who came out of the cabin to find Tu Yuanting, lifted them up one by one, and said: "This is still making trouble, do you see, there is a black pressure in front of you, that is the local officials are waiting to greet it, Xiaodouzi, hurry up and help your master change into clean clothes, this is the first time that the sixteenth master has appeared outside, don't lose royal face." ”
Tu Yuanting thought that he was the most faceful, and after listening to the words, he hurried back to his cabin, Aunt He was not worried that Xiaodouzi would serve alone, and she also followed in to help Tu Yuanting change clothes.
When it was cleaned, Tu Yuanting asked, "Auntie, what is my imperial sister-in-law doing?" ”
"Just now, the third master took the palace people to accompany Miss Feng on the bow of the boat!"
"How is this possible?" Tu Yuanting immediately remembered Tu Yuanhui's entrustment before parting, first, he couldn't let outsiders see the appearance of the crown princess, in case he saw it, it would be bad; The second is that Tu Yuansheng is not allowed to talk to Yu'er.
Tu Yuanting was shocked, this time he committed two taboos, if Tu Yuanhui knew, he would not have to eat and hang himself.
On the side of the railing, Tu Yuansheng looked at Feng Yu'er from afar, as well as her hair, which was a little unkempt by the wind, and liked it in his heart, but urged in his mouth: "The imperial sister-in-law has seen enough, if you don't go back, Xiao Sixteen will have to come out to find it again." ”
"Third master, will my father and mother come to pick me up at the dock?" Feng Yu'er turned her head and asked him.
"It should be so."
Feng Yu'er nodded, she received some news along the way, and the Rongguo Mansion also sent someone to Suzhou Mansion in advance, Feng Yu'er thought about Feng Jizhong and Jia Dun's temperament, and was really worried that they wouldn't be able to cope with it.
When Tu Yuansheng saw Feng Yu'er's appearance, he only said that she was homesick, and couldn't help but say: "What should I do if the imperial sister-in-law marries into the East Palace in the future?" After such a long distance, it will be even more rare to see each other in the future. ”
Feng Yu'er didn't answer, although there were many people at the fence, it was indeed better to talk less to the little uncle.
"Sister-in-law, what are you doing standing outside if you have nothing to do?" Tu Yuanting ran to the bow of the boat at this time, his face was unhappy, only a wave hit, Tu Yuanting almost sat on the ground, and before Xiaodouzi had time to help, Tu Yuansheng was quick and grabbed him.
Seeing that the master came over again, Feng Yu'er helplessly said to Tu Yuansheng: "Third master, the sixteenth master is watching too closely, I'll go back." ”
"Sister-in-law go slowly," Tu Yuansheng straightened his clothes for Tu Yuanting, and said: "Little Sixteen, turn back to the shore, you have to go with me to entertain those local officials, go back to your house to rest for a while, and cheer me up later, don't embarrass my father!" ”
"Got it," Tu Yuanting grinned at his mouth with missing front teeth.
Tu Yuanting didn't go back to his cabin, but followed Feng Yu'er to the place where he lived, and as soon as he entered it, he was not polite, and directly lay down on Feng Yu'er's recliner.
Aunt He's face sank: "Sixteenth master, this is not in accordance with the rules, the old slave has told you several times, you are not allowed to mess around on the chair of the imperial sister-in-law, although you are still a child, if you are seen by outsiders, but some gossip has been spread." ”
This Feng Yu'er looked funny, but Tu Yuanting said obediently: "Auntie, I'll change it when I get off the boat, but this time there are no outsiders, just let me lie down for a while." ”
"Auntie, you let him be," Feng Yu'er persuaded, "The sixteenth master has also worked hard these days, and he has to follow his second brother's will to watch me in prison because of the seasickness, look at this little face, let him rest for a while while there is still a while." ”
"You guys just get used to it." Aunt He was also helpless, and then ordered Xiaodouzi, who was standing on the side, to say, "Go, don't stand and doze off, go to my aunt's couch and sleep for a while." Little Beanzi was so happy that she immediately ran over.
Seeing Tu Yuanting crooked on the bed waving to him, Feng Yu'er understood, sat on the edge of the bed with a smile, and coaxed the child who pretended to be small for a while.
After a while, Tu Yuanting's eyelids trembled a little, he rolled over and fell asleep, and Feng Yu'er helped him cover the bedding.
***
In front of the wharf of Suzhou Mansion, the official ship carrying Feng Yuer and his party has sailed far away, and the governor of Suzhou put down the silver inlaid enamel two-section telescope in his hand, and turned sideways to Jia Daishan, the Duke of Rongguo, and complimented him: "Grandpa Guo, no wonder even the emperor praises you for your rigorous family style and powerful heirs. ”
Jia Daishan stroked his long beard and sighed: "I don't dare to be beautiful in this matter, but this daughter and son-in-law are well educated," he turned his head and said to Feng Jizhong beside him: "Jizhong, if your widowed mother is still awake, you will definitely be happy to learn that her granddaughter is actually the ancestor of your Feng family." ”
"Uncle Yue is right!" Feng Jizhong really regretted that if his wife hadn't been victimized by gangsters, now he knows that his granddaughter flew on the branch and became a phoenix, and he doesn't know how proud he would be.
"Jizhong, your mother-in-law wanted to come to Suzhou Mansion to welcome the eldest sister in person, but when she was about to leave, she suddenly felt unwell, so I didn't let her come with her. It is said that your mother-in-law was very happy to hear the news that the child was selected that day. ”
Feng Jizhong had no choice but to quickly thank him and said: "I didn't dare to work my mother-in-law, the eldest sister is a granddaughter, I should let this child go to the capital to meet your second elder, but now I am so tired that my father-in-law came over in person, and my son-in-law is really uneasy." ”
Jia Daishan nodded, his eldest son-in-law Feng Jizhong has been silent in Rongguo Mansion, although the son-in-law was personally selected by him, only later learned that his political performance was mediocre, so he didn't think much of it, he only felt that Feng Jizhong's only merit was that his mother was extremely filial, but now this kid has climbed the dragon and attached the phoenix and has become the father-in-law of the prince, although he relies on his daughter's ability, but Jia Daishan's disdain for him has been slightly reduced.
Shi has never looked down on Jia Dun, Jia Daishan felt that his wife gave birth to Jia Dun before he started, and he couldn't stand Shi Shi, so he turned a blind eye to some of Shi's actions, and he didn't care about whether he was at a loss or not, and now that this daughter and son-in-law have turned over, Jia Daishan thought that they would have some mustard, but now looking at Feng Jizhong's sincere and fearful attitude, Jia Daishan is still satisfied in his heart.
"For the matter of preparing for the marriage of the crown princess, your mother-in-law's idea is that she is worried that you and the eldest sister and her mother will not be able to support it, she discussed with me, and the sedan chair went to the capital, and went out from Rongguo Mansion to earn some face for the eldest sister." Jia Daishan couldn't help but sigh at the virtue of the Shi family, he actually thought about it very thoroughly, if the news of the crown princess's marriage from his grandfather's house spread, wouldn't his glory in Rongguo Mansion go to a higher level.
Feng Jizhong didn't dare to agree casually, but said: "When I go back, my son-in-law has to ask the eldest sister what she means." ”
When Jia Daishan heard this, he immediately frowned.
It's just that now there are officials everywhere, Feng Jizhong is already the prince's father-in-law, he still has to give face and not let others know that he doesn't look down on this Feng Jizhong, but he can't help but sneer in his heart, and secretly scold Feng Jizhong for still looking like he has no idea, and he is embarrassed to use his daughter to block arrows.
Seeing that Jia Daishan was unhappy, Lin Ruhai, who was next to Feng Jizhong, smiled and relieved the siege: "This matter can be discussed later, father-in-law, this eldest sister's boat is also about to arrive." ”
Jia Zheng echoed on the side and said, "Master, don't worry, don't worry. ”
"The official ship is docked!" Someone suddenly shouted.
After a while, the entourage on the official ship walked down one after another, and after a while, the third prince Tu Yuansheng and the sixteenth prince Tu Yuanting also appeared, and without waiting to greet the waiting officials, the two turned sideways and gave way.
Then he lifted a large sedan chair from the boat, and the governor of Suzhou was busy taking everyone forward to meet him, and an elderly female official standing by the sedan chair shouted, "Excuse me." ”
The accompanying guards made a gesture, and as soon as everyone on the dock retreated to both sides, Feng Yu'er's sedan chair left the dock under the eyes of everyone.
The curtains had already been pulled on the road in front of Feng's mansion, and many officers and soldiers stood on a street to block the onlookers of the people, and at this time, Jia Dun was wearing a woman's makeup and waiting for Feng Yu'er's return surrounded by everyone.
When Feng Yu'er's sedan chair fell, Jia Dun was about to step forward, but was pulled by the second grandmother of Rongguo Mansion beside him, Wang, only to hear her shout in a low voice: "What's the hurry? ”
The two palace teachers opened the sedan curtain and helped Feng Yuer down from inside, Wang pulled Jia Dun and was about to step forward to pay a visit, when the female official next to Feng Yuer said: "Before being canonized, there is no need to kneel and worship." "It's free.
When she entered the main house of the Feng Mansion, Feng Yuer smiled and helped Jia Dun to sit down, ignoring the so-called "unruly" obstruction of the Wang family, and respectfully kowtowed to her mother three times, and just said, "Mother." "The circles under my eyes turned a little red.
Jia Dun couldn't help but pull Feng Yu'er up, and the mother and daughter couldn't help but hug each other and cry.
At this time, Aunt He, who was dressed as a female official and always accompanied Feng Yuer, came over with a smile and quipped: "I think Mrs. Feng is reluctant to let her daughter go out, Miss Feng is still waiting to be married, you cry like this, when you really get on the sedan chair, how can you get the tears!" ”
Feng Yu'er hurriedly wiped away her tears and asked Aunt He and Jia Dun to meet.
Hearing that the other party was an aunt who grew up watching the prince, Jia Dun wanted to step forward and be polite.
The Wang family, who had never been noticed by Feng Yu'er, stepped forward unwillingly and said: "This is the niece, it is really a first-class character, such a good-looking little girl, the concubine is really the first time to see it, where is it like the granddaughter of the Guogong Mansion, it is said that the granddaughter is also believed, no wonder she can be selected in the screen and win glory for the Jia family!" ”
Feng Yu'er's eyes flashed slightly.
"This is your second aunt," Jia Dun hurriedly introduced, "I heard that you are going back to Suzhou Mansion to be married, and your grandfather, second uncle and aunt have all come over." ”
Feng Yu'er had already heard Wang's voice, that day at Lin Ruhai's house, it wasn't this second grandmother who made Jia Min cry so angrily, now Feng Yu'er has seen a real person, she looks honest and virtuous, but her temperament is not like this.
"Then thank you to the second aunt," Feng Yu'er greeted, and then said to Jia Dun: "This time, not only Aunt He came with me, but also two grandmothers came to the palace, and there are many palace guards, and the courtyard where my daughter lives is only afraid that it will be separated from the home, can you arrange it properly?" ”
Before Jia Dun could speak, the Wang family had already stepped forward and smiled at Feng Yu'er: "Your grandmother has seen the world the most, so she knows that in the event of such a big event, your family may not be able to come over as it should be, so she specially asked the concubine to come over to help." ”
Feng Yu'er glanced at Jia Dun and said lightly: "Thank you for your second aunt's concern, the Duchess of Guo thought so thoughtfully, I thanked my parents on behalf of me!" "It's not called grandmother, it's called Duchess of the Kingdom.
Wang felt that he still knew some etiquette in these words of the eldest sister, unlike just now, he persuaded Jia Dun for a long time and asked her to send the eldest sister to Rongguo Mansion, but he only got a sentence "Go back and listen to what the eldest sister says." ”
Jia Dun's attitude really made the Wang family look down on her, and felt that her house was just a golden phoenix flying out of the chicken coop, and it was worth it for her to get carried away and lose her ancestors?
"Before leaving Jinling, my wife told her to take the eldest sister to live in the capital for a while, Rongguo Mansion is also a well-known good family, if you can marry from Rongguo Mansion, you will not be wronged by the eldest sister to look at the eyes of the people in the palace."
At this time, Jia Dun frowned unconsciously, with a look of embarrassment, Feng Yu'er immediately saw it in her eyes, only smiled and did not match, turned her head and said to Aunt He: "Auntie, our family is very simple, I am afraid that it will be hard for you and the two grandmothers these days." ”
"Madame Lauvon bothered." Aunt Ho knows how to respect Jia Dun completely.
Feng Yu'er smiled at this time: "In this case, you have worked hard all the way, why don't you go and rest for a while, I'm really tired, mother, you can accompany me to rest for a while." As he spoke, he instructed the servant to lead Aunt He down, greeted the Wang family again, and then pulled Jia Dun away.
Seeing that Wang's face was not very good-looking, someone stepped forward and persuaded: "Second grandmother, don't worry, I think the eldest sister has just come back, and she is still on the rise, how can you think about it so long-term, what will happen later, the old slave will see that the second grandmother is busy until now, why don't you go back to the other courtyard to rest for a while?" ”
Wang Shi felt that he was treated coldly, and his heart was extremely unhappy, so he stood up and said, "Go back!" Then he left.
After Jia Zheng accompanied his father and others to entertain the princes, he returned to the Jia family's courtyard in Suzhou Mansion with a body of wine, and was about to go back to his own room to lie down for a while, but he saw that there was already a horizontal one on the bed.
Jia Zheng was startled, lay down next to her, and asked casually: "You are not staying in the Feng Mansion, what are you going to do when you come back?" Don't feel uncomfortable somewhere? ”
The Wang family has been on fire since he returned to the other courtyard, how can he still rest, this time when he saw Jia Zheng coming, he immediately sat up, and said angrily: "Look at your sister's family, now that they are gaining momentum, they can no longer look down on our Jiafu!" 166 Reading Network
