Chapter Seventy-Five: Arrival

In the dead of night, nesting in the quilt and looking at the shadows of the branches on the window, swaying in the breeze, Linglong thought of Shen Yunqi again, thought of his good-looking eyes, smiling lips, and the faint pine fragrance on his body. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Lately, I have always thought of him so inexplicably.

I don't know if Shen Xinyi has been doing well recently, it seems that there has been no news of her for a long time.

On the day that Mrs. Tong took her family to the capital, the sky was fine. Mu Shichang went down to the court and asked for half a day off to greet him at the gate of the city, while the old lady brought Xiao, Linglong and Lingrong and the maids and daughters-in-law to wait at the gate of the Mu Mansion early.

My aunt can't show her face.

Linglong and Lingrong changed into new clothes, Linglong was dressed in a peach-pink gown, with two white pearl earrings, a porcelain white face, with a faint pink on the cheeks, a lily bun, a small orchid, with a butterfly hairpin that was about to fly, as soon as the head moved, the butterfly's wings trembled, and looked joyful. Lingrong is wearing a lake-green makeup gown, Aunt Yan got up early in the morning, personally combed her with a peach blossom bun, embedded in the hair nest with a delicate inner court silk flower small peony, with a pair of plum-shaped glass earrings, shining in the sun, Lingrong's whole face is white and red, the old lady loves it very much, and she praised Lingrong with a blushing face.

Linglong was secretly happy for Lingrong.

After such a thing as Zhaodehou Mansion, Aunt Yan completely figured it out, if she didn't fight for her daughter, Lingrong would only be rounded and flattened by the Xiao family.

Taking advantage of the arrival of relatives this time, there will be more gatherings at home, and she wants her daughter to appear in front of everyone with a radiant appearance.

Lingrong looked good, but she was just cringe, and her timid look made her lose three points of color. Now that she was beaten hard by Aunt Yan, and after two days of careful training, she was a little bolder, and she remembered Aunt Yan's words in her heart, so she straightened her back even more.

When you are confident, your natural spirit will be good.

Xiao Shi stood behind the old lady, with cold eyes at Lingrong and Linglong from time to time, and her intestines hurt.

When the sun was setting in the west, the carriage finally appeared clearly in everyone's field of vision. A little guy rode a horse and galloped over, got off the horse neatly, and said goodbye to the old lady, "Old lady, the old man asked the little one to come back to report, and the carriage and horse of Mrs. Tong and Master Li will arrive immediately." ”

Liuli rewarded him with a seal red, and the little guy happily took the seal red and got up, and led the horse around the road to enter the house through the back door.

The little guy walked for less than a quarter of an hour when he saw a crowd of people approaching, and dust was flying behind him.

Linglong suddenly became a little nervous, looked sideways at Lingrong, saw her pursing her lips, knew that she was also nervous, reached out to hold Lingrong's hand, the two looked at each other and smiled, Lingrong nodded gratefully at Linglong.

The carriage is gradually approaching, and the flat-bottomed carriage of Luni is all hung with Hangzhou embroidery dark pattern water wave curtains, and the sheep's horn palace lamp sways with the bumps of the carriage, revealing luxury in the low-key.

Linglong remembers that Master Hui'an said that the more prominent people are, the more simple the things they use, but in fact they are very comparable.

This is the essence of the family. The Li family is really not simple.

Most of the things that Linglong knew were taught by Master Hui'an bit by bit. She knows so much, from the temple to the government affairs, and to the affairs of the house, she knows it clearly. If it weren't for Master Hui'an's teachings in those years, Linglong would have died in the hands of the Xiao family, otherwise how could she, a hairy girl who grew up in a nunnery, know so many rules of the inner house.

Li Qiankun and Li Qiangao were the first to get down from the two sedan chairs, Li Qiankun was dressed in the official mansion, and Li Qiangao was dressed in brown straight embellishments, the two went straight to the old lady side by side, knelt down and kowtowed, and the old lady chattered the names of the two with teary eyes, calling them up. Behind them are two young masters, one is Li Qiankun's eldest son, named Li Min, and the other is Li Qiangao's youngest son, named Li Zheng, although one is older and one young, the age difference is only three or four years old, they are all the chic appearance of Yushu Linfeng, but Li Min is more stable than Li Zheng, although he is not a brother, but Linglong can see that their brother relationship is very good.

Immediately afterwards, two elegant and dignified ladies helped an old lady with a rather stern face to get out of the carriage and leaned over, followed closely by two girls in flowers. The lady wearing the lake green makeup gown on the left side of the old lady smiled and said something to the two girls behind her, and the two daughters stepped forward with a smile and helped the lady wearing a red gown on the right side of the old lady, the lady originally supported the old lady, and now the crimson one is helped away by the two little girls. Her belly was slightly bulging. Linglong smiled in her heart, and couldn't help but love this family.

Without waiting for anyone to get closer, Liuli helped the old lady to meet her. "Sister." As soon as the old lady grabbed Mrs. Tong's hand, her face was full of tears.

Mrs. Tong stretched out her hand to take her sister into her arms like when she was a child, and patted her back with tears in her eyes, "At such an old age, I am still like this, and I am not afraid of the jokes of the juniors." ”

The last time we met, it was when Mrs. Tong got married, and decades have passed. Who would have thought that a farewell at that time would take decades to bear.

"Mother, don't cry, let's invite my aunt into the house first, I've been tired all the way, and my aunt must be tired." Xiao Shi wiped his reddish eyes with a handkerchief and persuaded.

The old lady nodded and wiped her tears with a handkerchief, "Sister, let's go in and talk." ”

Over there, Mu Shichang had already led the male guests into the house, and several soft sedan chairs were parked at the door of the house, and Xiao led everyone to the sedan chair and went straight to Meishan Xiaozhu.

It's been so long since I returned to Mufu, and it's the first time I've come to Meishan Xiaozhu. Linglong and Lingrong rode in the same sedan chair, and through the gauze curtain, both of them looked out curiously.

"The second sister is also the first time to come to Meishan Xiaozhu?" Seeing that Lingrong was also full of strangeness, Linglong asked with a smile.

Lingrong nodded, "It's Xiaozhu, I didn't expect it to be so big here." Lingrong said with emotion.

I don't know if Aunt Yan specifically instructed her, or if Lingrong experienced the change of the affairs of Zhaodehou Mansion overnight, she spoke and behaved much more generously than before, and Linglong was happy for her change in her heart. "The second sister is very good now."

Ling Rong was stunned and pursed her lips and smiled. "People change."

The two of them smiled and talked about the scenery of Meishan Xiaozhu, and unconsciously, the sedan chair stopped.

Unlike the old lady's Ciyuan, the main house of Meishan Xiaozhu does not use a fire kang, but a widened and enlarged jet-black luodian stepping bed. But the layout is to imitate the fire kang, in the middle of the bed, there is a short-legged kang table, on which melons and fruit snacks are placed.

The old lady and the old lady sat down on the left and right. The juniors sat in turn on the pear wood soft chairs lined up with the lower swallow wings. Liuli commanded the girls to serve water for everyone to wash, and after washing, they each served fragrant tea.

"This is Shichang's daughter-in-law, Xiao," the old lady pointed to Xiao and introduced to Mrs. Tong: "Her eldest daughter, you know, married to the prince's mansion, she was originally going to come, but she was diagnosed as pregnant, and the prince was afraid of moving the fetal gas, so she didn't come." ”

"It's this truth, the children don't understand, she is young, and she is the first child, so she should be maintained more, the prince attaches so much importance to it, it is Yu'er's blessing." Mrs. Tong said with a smile, Lingyu she knew. "Although Yu'er didn't come, my aunt's meeting gift is indispensable. You keep it for her. Mrs. Tong pointed at Xiao Shi and said.

Xiao Shi hurriedly stepped forward and was about to excuse himself, when Old Taijun Tong said, "The elders can't give up." ”

Xiao saluted, thanked Lingyu, and took a nanmu box held by a girl behind Mrs. Tong. With the weight, Xiao secretly speculated about what was inside.

"These two are Yu'er's sisters," the old lady smiled and pointed at Lingrong and said, "This is the second girl, Lingrong, she originally set the Zhaodehou Mansion," mentioning the Zhaodehou Mansion, the old lady smiled a little sneeringly, this is not a glorious thing, "The Hou Ye is going to share the emperor's worries, guarding the sixteen states of Yanyun, and taking the initiative to withdraw from this family business." The old lady said a rough idea.

"Don't blame me for saying that you are stupid, even I know what kind of character that Zhaodehou is all these years, how can you not know if you live in the capital, why are you willing to push such a handsome granddaughter into that fire pit." Speaking of Zhaodehou Mansion, Mrs. Tong's expression was slightly displeased, and she complained a little about her sister, "Good girl, you can't marry anyone, if you want to marry there, you should continue to do it." ”

The old lady smiled awkwardly. My sister can talk like this, which shows that she is not angry. I haven't seen each other for so many years, but in the end, I am a sister. Between the words, it was all about concern, without a trace of falsehood, "Isn't this a retreat." The old lady said a little awkwardly.

Seeing her grandmother like this for the first time, Linglong smiled in her heart, in front of Mrs. Tong, her grandmother was still like a child, and the relationship between sisters was really good. Old Taijun Tong's words were all for Lingrong's good, and Linglong couldn't help but have a good impression of this old lady. Being able to say such things when we meet for the first time is enough to see what kind of person the old lady is.

"You also said that it was good that you quit your family." Mrs. Tong smiled disgustedly: "But the wronged child, quickly bring me the special gift for this child." ”

Before the words fell, the girl behind her held a small Nanmu box, the same size as the one in Xiao's hand. But hearing that Mrs. Tong was specially prepared for Lingrong, Xiao frowned slightly, feeling a little unhappy. It's just a cheap maid born to an aunt, and that's it!

Lingrong hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down to thank the old lady for the reward, and the old lady Tong affectionately pulled up Lingrong, took her hand and looked at it for a long time, "It's a good boy," said, turned his face to the old lady and said, "Do you have any plans for her marriage?" ”

"I just quit my family, where do I have a plan so soon." The old lady smiled: "Sister has a suitable one?" "If Lingrong can get the old lady to worry about the marriage, it will really be her blessing.

The old lady didn't say anything with a smile, the old lady knew that there was a spectrum in this matter, she looked at Ling Rong with a smile, made Ling Rong so ashamed that her face was flushed, and she hooked her neck and let the old lady hold her hand. Xiao Shi was so anxious that her internal organs were burning hot, and she was planning to use Lingrong's marriage to pave the way for Yu'er, how could she come by this old lady. I wanted to step forward and say something, but I couldn't interject it for a while, so I only stood aside and clenched my silver teeth.

It seems that we have to hurry up and plan Lingrong's marriage.
