Chapter 122: Companions
Early in the morning, five large carriages were parked at the door of Zongzheng's house, each with a flag held high, embroidered with a colorful phoenix looking up to the sky, and a pair of raised wings with the golden word "Xiao". This is the carriage sent by Xiao Pengju to meet Zong Zhengke, and today they are going to Yunhang Mansion.
Before anyone arrived, a snow-white elf came out of the door, followed by a series of shouts. Xiao Peng stood next to the carriage that was headed, and when he saw this little monkey, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he pointed to it and asked the waiter who was standing next to him: "Whose love is this?" ”
Man Tang Zheng replied respectfully: "It is the longevity of the third girl." ”
Xiao Peng immediately dispelled the idea of getting this little monkey into his hands, and only praised it: "It's amazing, I didn't expect Sister Ke to have such an opportunity." This monkey, if the master is not mistaken, should be the ninth in the world's list of strange beasts, the Golden Peak Tongming Snow Monkey King. Xiao Ye once heard people say that Tianyi True Sect has such a mountain protection spirit beast. ”
The full hall was showing a look of honor, and it was rare to reply arrogantly: "The three girls in our family are people who are deeply blessed by the Buddha, and it is not uncommon to have spirit beasts to protect them." ”
Xiao Peng glanced at Mantang with a smile, and then glanced at Xiao Quanzhong, who was silently guarding in front of the third carriage, and laughed twice.
On the first day, Xiao Quanzhong came to greet his sister Ke, but he didn't know what happened, and he seemed to be a little unhappy with the big housekeeper. Later, Xiao Pengju learned that Xiao Quanzhong and the Xu family beside Sister Ke were old acquaintances, and it was said that there was a story before. This time I went back to Yunhang Mansion, originally the Xu family was not going to follow, and planned to stay with Sister Ke to guard Qingyi Tower. I don't know what Xiao Quanzhong said to Xu, Xu actually changed his mind.
Xiao Pengju was thinking about this, when he saw Xu's figure appear at the side door, followed by the two maids of his sister. His eyes shrunk, and only then did he realize that these two young girls actually had not weak martial arts cultivation, and they also had at least four grades.
It's really hidden. Xiao Peng raised his teeth and smiled, stepped forward and said to Xu, "Aunt Xu, do you need to send someone in to help move things?" ”
Xu hurriedly saluted, and said quite solemnly: "The slave maid gives the sixteenth young man a greeting." All the cages have been moved to the door, just waiting to be loaded into the car. ”
Xiao Pengju said to Xiao Dadao: "Ah Da, hurry up and send someone to pack the girl's luggage." I went into the house to say goodbye to my grandfather. Xiao Da should go down. pointed to the men who followed the car to the side door to move the cages. Even the girl's slaves and maids, but six large boxes, were easily moved.
At this time, under the guidance of Man Zheng, Xiao Peng moved into the house. Go to Tsuruka Tongchun Hall. There, he met Zong Zhengke. If the granddaughter wants to travel far away, she naturally has to kowtow to her grandfather and grandmother to say goodbye.
In front of Xiao Pengju, Zong Zheng gave Zong Zheng a good lecture. But how does Xiao Pengju think that the meaning of this in-laws' grandfather's words is to warn himself not to treat his sister Ke badly? He could only smile bitterly in his heart.
At the end, Zong Zheng gave Mrs. Ren a look. Mrs. Ren wiped her tears, endured the severe pain in her heart, took a yellow rosewood box from Mama Cui's hand, and reluctantly stroked the wooden box. smiled and said: "You have to be filial to the old lady and the elders of the foreign family, and you must also get along well with your sisters." These are the expenses that your grandfather and grandmother gave you, and you should not be reluctant to use them. If it is not enough, just send a letter back. ”
Zong Zhengke knelt on the futon, his eyes were red, he kowtowed to Zong Zhengjin and Mrs. Ren again, and said in a low voice: "The granddaughter is not filial, and she can't be happy under the knees of the second elder for the time being, and I hope that the second elder will take good care, and the granddaughter will return soon." ”
You'd better never come back. There are 10,000 taels of silver tickets in this box! How much private room has the old man hidden?! Mrs. Ren only felt heartache, clutched her chest tightly, tears fell straight down, and she couldn't say half a word.
Zong Zhenglun and his wife next to him hurriedly came to persuade him. Zong Zheng glanced at his old wife, he was really reluctant to let his granddaughter leave, and choked up: "When you get to the place, quickly send someone back to deliver the letter, so that your grandfather can rest assured." ”
Zong Zheng responded and got up with the support of Mingxin and Mingyue. I went to say goodbye to my two uncles and aunts, and then said goodbye to my sisters and brothers. Everyone was polite, and the sisters and brothers in the second room were all in tears.
When the auspicious time for departure was approaching, Zong Zhengjin ordered Zong Zhenglun and Zong Zhengfa to send Zong Zhengke out with their children. He stood at the door of Tongchun Hall, looking at the back of his granddaughter in the distance, and really wanted to call her back again.
Old Lady Ren stood behind Zong Zhengjin and said in a low voice: "You just have to rest assured, with sixteen young people to protect you, Sister Ke'er will definitely be safe." ”
Zong Zhengjin turned his head to look at her, and was quite surprised by the sincerity on her face at this time, so he also sighed: "I only want the children to be safe, not to be rich, but to be healthy and old." ”
Old Lady Ren held Zong Zhengjin's arm and said softly, "Yes, it will." The two of them said no more, looked at each other for a while, and the figure was no longer visible, and then they went back to the inner room together.
However, it was said that Zong Zhengke arrived at the gate of the mansion and boarded the third carriage. Xiao Pengju obviously put his mind into it, this carriage was the largest and most comfortable among all the five cars, and it could completely seat five masters and servants.
At one time, the crowd boarded the carriage, and the rider rode the horse. Mantang ordered people to light firecrackers, and watched the group leave with a bitter heart. That Xiao Quanzhong, this time followed the girl back to Yunhang Mansion and often met with the Xu family...... Alas, he really wanted to go with him.
After driving for an hour, there is the south gate of Uogawa Mansion in front of you. Zong Zhengke was concentrating on reading, when suddenly the carriage door was knocked a few times, and Xiao Quanzhong said outside: "Girl, there is the convoy of the eldest princess's family in front." The county lord of Nancheng sent a big girl ring to meet you. ”
This time I went to Yunhang Mansion, and Pei Junshao also went with him. Xiao Peng traveled thousands of miles to congratulate the eldest princess on her birthday, and it was reasonable to hear that Mrs. Xiao was not in good health, and the Pei family also had someone to visit her.
It is said that Pei Si promised the eldest princess not to mention going to Jingting Academy for the time being, so he was allowed to go to Yunhang Mansion on behalf of the Pei family. For this reason, his little uncle Pei Yuncheng also went to protect him, and specially invited the old lady Gu from Xinglin Hall to accompany him to take care of his body.
This is what Zong Zhengke knew for a long time, so she asked Mingxin to open the car door. The big girl next to the county lord of Nancheng came over to ask for peace, and only said two words and retreated. Zong Zhengke also asked Mingxin to go to the Nancheng County Lord to say goodbye, and Mingxin came back soon.
It was important to hurry, and the words of farewell had already been said, so Zong Zhengke only raised the carriage curtain and waved to the county lord of Nancheng who was passing by by by mistake. The two teams converged in one place, and were just about to pass through the city gate, when someone galloped behind them.
Yan Yuzhi rushed to Xiao Pengju and Pei Yuncheng, and said with a smile: "This son is ordered by his father to go south to Yunhang Mansion to ask Mrs. Xiao for peace. ”
Xiao Peng's face darkened, but he stared at Yan Yuzhen's big Dan phoenix eyes, and couldn't say a word. (To be continued.) )
