After the messenger retreated, the face of the Duanhui County Lord finally showed anger.

"Knowing that I am widowed here, my clothes are not full, and I am still asked to go back to participate in some spring banquet, isn't it just to laugh at me, that kind of banquet is just to watch a play, eat and drink, and have a good time."

Dan Tang served beside him, and when he saw that the county lord was angry, he didn't dare to say anything.

Chen brought a cup of tea to the county lord and said with a smile: "This is also their kindness, the county lord just doesn't go." Don't be angry about this, you can't get rid of your body if you hurt yourself. ”

"They just don't have a good heart." Duan Hui felt that the fire was big.

Chen Shi hurriedly said: "No matter how you say it, it is a major event in the palace. It was also a good idea for them to let the county lord know. When the princess in front of her was still there, she also had a spring banquet every year, how lively it was. At that time, the county lord also liked it very much. The slave still remembers that the county lord once went to the lake to row a boat and accidentally fell into the water, but our princess was frightened, and the slave and maid were also frightened and cried when they heard about it, but fortunately, God bless nothing! Chen is still scared when he thinks about it.

"At that time, I was young and naturally naughty, but after such an ordeal, I finally learned a long lesson, and I was afraid when I saw water, and I didn't even dare to sit on a boat for several years." However, the county lord got married, but he took a lot of waterways.

Duanhui recalled that when he was young, he naturally also remembered his biological mother. In her memory, such a beautiful and gentle woman, it is a pity that she was blessed and died young. It would be nice if the mother was still there. She and her brother are not without support.

Seeing that Duanhui's eyes were misty, Chen knew that the county lord was thinking about the princess in front of him again, so he regretted a little, thinking that he shouldn't mention the matter of the previous princess, so he hurriedly used other words to diverge, and said with a smile: "When the county lord is full, we will also bring the close Tongjia to play in the villa, and the county lord will be happy and happy at that time." ”

Duanhui was not in the mood anymore, he didn't seem to be in a good mood, and said a little whimsically: "It's noisy and tired, so forget it." ”

The little maid ran to report: "The county lord, the uncle is here." ”

"Meritus is here! Invite him in! The county lord swept away the depression just now, and his face was full of joy.

Not long after, I saw Mu Xuan coming.

Duanhui looked at the incomparable joy in his younger brother's heart, looked up and down, and saw that Mu Xuan was wearing a round-necked Hangzhou silk straight jacket today. Ordinary people wear such a color, which looks even more rustic and spiritless, but on Mu Xuan's body, his face is more and more lined like a crown of jade. I also saw that he had a sandalwood carved hairpin in his hair, and a bracelet of eighteen sons of white sandalwood on his wrist. It's not the ordinary monk's dress, Duanhui is even more happy.

Duan Hui said angrily: "Why did you come suddenly, and you didn't report a message in advance, so I could send a sedan chair to pick you up." ”

"Sister, I'm already well, not as weak as you think. I came on horseback. ”

I heard that riding a horse Duanhui couldn't help but worry about whether Mu Xuan would be upside down on the horse, but seeing that Mu Xuan was in good spirits, he took these words back.

"It's hard for you to come to me, stay for a few days and then go back." Duanhui hurriedly beckoned someone to clean up Mu Xuan's house, and asked to call a maid for him.

Mu Xuan's face was calm, but he did not refuse, which made Duan Hui even more overjoyed. It seems that the younger brother has thought it through, and is willing to return to his family's side and never indulge in other things again.

Duanhui asked people to pack up Tang Lizhai for Mu Xuan to live in, and lived next to her Jinxiu Courtyard. He also called him two big maids, pearl and glaze, and added two little maids, Fucui and Qiuci, and two rough mothers-in-law.

"Sister returns home, is it what the prince means?" This is the first time that Duan Hui returned to Bianliang from Fujian, and Mu Xuan took the initiative to ask Duan Hui about it.

She was slightly surprised, but she seemed very happy, and replied with a smile: "It's what the prince meant, saying that I am so far away in Fujian, and I have no one to rely on, so let people take me back." ”

"Are you doing well in the Ji family?"

Duan Hui was stunned in his heart, and there was a hint of obscurity in his eyes. Obviously, she didn't want to mention it, and smiled to steer the conversation away.

"Junhua, Tang Lizhai will let you live. I let the maid clean up, when you want to come back to live, you can come back, as long as you want. After all, this Qixia Villa was expanded by the mother's house back then, and no one else could control us. ”

"Sister......" Mu Xuan's voice was suddenly a little dull.

"What, do you think Tang Lizhai is bad? If you don't live in the evening dock, it's just that it's next to the water, and it's still comfortable to live in summer. It's a little cold this season right now. ”

Mu Xuan already understood in her heart that her sister was not doing well in Fujian.

"I'll live in Tangli Zhai."

Duan Hui saw that his younger brother didn't ask, so he was relieved. And he said he was going to see the house.

She took the initiative to walk in front, and Mu Xuan followed behind.

Since the death of her mother, Mu Xuan has never stepped here. Now that I am going again, I feel a little bit of emotion. The splendid courtyard is the house where the mother lived in the past, and the Tang Lizhai next door is a study.

When the sister and brother walked into the courtyard gate of Tang Lizhai, their eyes were attracted by more than a dozen pear trees in the yard, and clusters of snow-white flowers on the branches were blooming in the wind. In a trance, Mu Xuan vaguely remembered that when the pear blossoms were in full bloom, the mother sat under the flower tree, taught him to recite "Kindergarten Qionglin", and interpreted "Thousand Poems" to him.

Time has passed, and the young child has now grown into a seven-foot man, and the young woman of peach and plum under the flower tree has been sleeping forever underground.

Mu Xuan looked at the pear blossoms in the yard like snow, and felt a little "the flowers are similar every year, but the people are different every year".

"Junhua, the house still maintains its original appearance, and it hasn't changed at all."

The pink walls and red windows, the three rooms on it, have long been opened, and high bookshelves have been erected, full of subsets of scriptures and histories. There are several painting scrolls inserted in the large volume jar, which are the wonderful brushes of celebrities collected by my grandfather back then, and my father knew that my mother liked it, so I quietly sent a few.

"I remember my mother sitting at this table playing the piano, and my father painting on this marble bookcase."

"Yes, you were only three or four years old at the time, so it's hard for you to remember it so clearly."

Duan Hui had already remembered what happened back then, his eyes were sour, he couldn't bear to continue thinking about it, and said, "You still live in the two rooms in the east." Tents, bedding or something, I'll have someone bring it in a moment. ”

Mu Xuan didn't speak. His eyes were drawn by a picture of a lady drawn by his father on the wall. He stared at it for a long time, and suddenly asked, "How did the concubine leave back then?" ”

Duan Hui looked at his younger brother suspiciously, and said in his heart that his younger brother didn't know how his mother left, why did he suddenly ask about this.
