In that place in Shudi, Zhou's understanding of it was still more than ten years ago. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

At that time, in order to pick Mu Yuanjing's in-law's family, the Zhou family inquired about the situation of each family.

There are many noble and talented people of the same age in Beijing, but most of them are children of families who hold folding fans and listen to the wind and watch the moon.

The Zhou family helped Wu Lao Taijun to consult a lot, and finally set his sights on the Liu family who entered Beijing.

The ancestral home of the Liu family was Shudi, and it was a well-known family in the previous dynasty, and even produced a first-class and second-class member, until the change of dynasty, the Liu family slowly stayed away from the government.

Even so, in Shudi, where the emperor is far away, the reputation of the Liu family is still prominent.

The Liu family went to Beijing to participate in the martial arts, a blockbuster, the Liu family has a foundation for studying, although he can't go to the scientific examination to be superior, but he is not vulgar, and he looks dignified, so the old marquis likes it very much.

Zhou mentioned that Mu Yuanjing should marry this "upstart" in Beijing.

It's just that no one expected that the Liu family Dalang, who was originally going to stay in Beijing, received the news that his grandmother was sick after the martial arts were released, and he didn't stay in Beijing and chose to return to his hometown.

The word filial piety made the old marquis more and more satisfied.

Wu Lao Taijun is a retreat, if the Liu family stays in Beijing, she is willing to talk about marriage, but if she returns to Shu and asks her to marry Mu Yuanjing far away, the old lady is reluctant.

At that time, the Zhou family followed the meaning of the old marquis, and carefully inquired about the situation of Shu thousands of miles away, and the local reputation of the Liu family.

The Liu family is indeed a good in-law, so it is not bad for the eldest man of the Liu family to look at it, but Mrs. Wu finally nodded and married Mu Yuanjing far away.

The marriage was handled by the Zhou family, and there was such a sister-in-law in the family, and she would never lose her dignity in her big gift.

The Zhou family is bent on achieving a good marriage, but the world is unpredictable.

The Liu family and the Mu family have different views, Mu Yuanjing is not suitable for life in Shuzhong, and every letter to the family is complaining.

The eldest man of the Liu family died young, and Mu Yuanjing returned to the capital a few years later on the grounds that the old marquis was mourning, and refused to return to Shu again.

The in-law relationship between the Mu and Liu families has long existed in name only.

The Mu family knows that they are at a loss, and the Liu family can only go in and out of the left ear when they give a few words behind their backs.

Zhou briefly talked to Mu Lianxiao about the Liu family.

Mu Lianxiao listened carefully, and said with a light smile: "Mother is afraid that the Liu family will embarrass me?" I don't go to my relatives, they don't recognize me. ”

"Having said that," Zhou patted his son's hand, "The relationship between the Shu family is complicated, and it is not easier to deal with than the Jiangnan clan, if there is the Liu family as a mouth, maybe you can find out some news, but unfortunately, the Liu family is not able to go down this road now." ”

Mu Lianxiao knew it.

The heart of defense is indispensable, after all, the Liu family is rooted in Shu, and the relationship with the Mu family has long been broken, for the sake of their own interests, let alone helping Mu Lianxiao, it is already polite not to stab a knife in the back.

Zhou took care of a few more words, and seeing that Mu Lianxiao listened carefully, and Du Yunluo was also attentive, she couldn't help laughing.

"Look at me," Zhou pulled his forehead behind his ear, "My son has already started a family, and it's not the first time I've gone far away, but I'm still pulling you to babble so much like before." ”

Mu Lianxiao called "Mother" softly, his eyes were sharp, and he saw that Zhou's sideburns had been dyed with silver threads.

Before I knew it, my mother was already old, and if it weren't for my father's untimely death, she shouldn't have aged so quickly......

Thinking of this, Mu Lianxiao subconsciously glanced at Du Yunluo.

Mu Yuance was not killed in battle, he was killed.

Mu Lianxiao still remembered that when he returned to Beijing to tell Zhou, Zhou's mouthful of blood spurted out, and Mu Lianxiao, who was used to seeing blood, felt frightened.

He cleared his throat and said, "I have heard a lot, I remember it, and I remember every word of my mother's care." ”

Zhou's eyes were gentle, and his smile was warm: "You kid......"

Taking a deep breath, Zhou glanced at the sky outside and said, "It's not too early, you go back to Shaoxi Garden early, and then clean up." ”

The husband and wife said goodbye to Zhou and withdrew from Jingshuitang.

Mu Lianxiao took Du Yunluo's hand and went to Shaoxi Garden, and across half of the garden, she happened to meet Mu Liancheng who was holding her sister.

There is already a little coolness in the autumn breeze.

Sister Yu'er held the golden osmanthus spike in her palm, and stretched out her hand towards Du Yunluo: "Give!" ”

No matter how much hatred she has for those "executioners" in the second room, in the face of such a big sister, Du Yunluo still greeted her with a smile.

After taking the osmanthus spike, Du Yunluo thanked Sister Wan'er.

Sister Yu'er giggled, buried her face in Mu Liancheng's arms, and turned half of her face sideways, secretly looked at Du Yunluo, and saw that Du Yunluo was still looking at her, she quickly covered her face and buried it back, laughing so much that she couldn't stop laughing.

Mu Liancheng patted Sister Wan'er's back, and there was a smile on the corner of his lips, and said, "Ah Xiao, how many days will you leave?" ”

Mu Lianxiao bowed her head and said, "Yes, this trip will not return to Beijing until Layue." ”

"There is one thing ......" Mu Liancheng pursed his lips and said thoughtfully, "If it's convenient, bring some Putuo's sandalwood back, Ah Hui is used to it." ”

The sandalwood formula in Putuo is different from other places, and it is very rare to buy it in Beijing, Mu Lianxiao went to Jiangnan, and in several big cities in Jiangnan, you can probably buy some.

Mu Lianxiao responded.

Back in Shaoxi Garden, Du Yunluo asked about the sandalwood: "Didn't you buy it then?" ”

Mu Lianxiao shook her head and said, "Give it to him." ”

"Send someone to Jiangnan to buy?" Du Yun Luoqi said.

Mu Lianxiao laughed, made a silent gesture, leaned over and put it to Du Yunluo's ear, and said, "When Shuying went to Jiangnan last year to inquire about Jia De and Master Liu's family, she brought some Putuo sandalwood to his wife.

His wife used it very much, and Shuying made people send some to the capital every ten years to respect filial piety.

I went back to him and told him to keep some for me. ”

Du Yunluo suddenly realized.

After resting in the house for two days, Mu Lianxiao set off.

Du Yunluo took Brother Yan to send him out, took advantage of the fact that the people below were not paying attention, hooked his fingers, and said, "Be careful on the road and come back early." ”

Mu Lianxiao saw that she looked reluctant and pretending to be calm, she was distressed and warm-hearted, and she should give up everything.

When I first sent people away, everything was normal.

It wasn't until the dead of night, blowing the lamp and setting the tent, looking at the empty bedding around her, that Du Yunluo's heart slowly rose a little uncomfortable.

It is clear that when Mu Lianxiao was in the army in the past, she also came here alone, but since she broke Gumeili and Mu Lianxiao returned to Shanyuguan, the two have not been separated for more than half a year.

I was tired of it for more than half a year, and I suddenly separated, and I really didn't feel comfortable.

Du Yunluo buried her head on Mu Lianxiao's pillow and took a deep breath.

This can be regarded as "from thrift to luxury, from luxury to thrift", right? (To be continued.) )
