Leisurely inside, Sister Hui sat firmly behind the bookcase, holding a children's book in her hand, but did not turn a page. Brother Xuan sat opposite, looked at her anxiously and asked, "I don't know how the old lady is, my father is still waiting for the disease ahead." ”

As soon as the old lady fainted, Qiao let her go back to the courtyard on her own. She is a boudoir lady, and if she hadn't had to listen to the separation on behalf of the big house before, she wouldn't have the qualifications to go. When something happened, he was naturally repatriated first. "Don't worry, Dad is back, let's just sit and wait." Chu Jinmin is back, things have developed to this point, and the rest is waiting for Chu Jinmin to deal with the aftermath. "Sister, you said that the old lady is her" "Don't worry, I've been planning for so long to wait for this day, and we're half avenging my mother's revenge." Sister Hui said slowly, her eyes did not contain any warmth.

Today's events are all the result of years of planning. As early as the day she knew that there was a separation, she began to prepare, because she knew that the old lady committed a little thing, with the queen in her pocket, the government would not do anything to her. However, the "separation" will hold a clan meeting, and all the clan elders will be there. Murdering children and grandchildren is not tolerated by family law, and it will be difficult for the old lady to gain a foothold in the Chu family in the future.

"And what about the other half?" Brother Xuan couldn't help asking

"Half of it"

"I'll let my dad do the other half of it." Chu Jinmin's voice suddenly sounded, intercepting Sister Hui'er's words.

"Daddy!" Sister Hui put down the book, ran briskly as she did when she was a child, and threw herself into Chu Jinmin's arms.

Chu Jinmin hugged her, touched her head, and sighed for a long time: "You've grown taller, when your father left, you were only up to your father's waist, and now it's almost to your shoulders." ”

"Dad has been gone for five years and six months, my mother has been gone for four years and three months, and Brother Xuan has been gone for two years and four months." Sister Hui let her tears flow, and looked at Chu Jinmin with a smile.

"Fortunately, our family is together again, only your mother" Chu Jinmin stretched out his hand and sighed while wiping Sister Hui'er's tears

"My mother has always been there, she is in her father's heart, and she is also in the hearts of Hui'er and Brother Xuan, and she has never left." Sister Hui shook her head, grabbed Brother Xuan, who was standing on the side, and said

"Yes, you're right." Chu Jinmin's eyes were wet and red, and he nodded.

After the three of them sighed, Sister Hui remembered what had just happened, and couldn't help but ask suspiciously: "By the way, Dad, how could the uncle appear in the end?" Today, the old lady in the cubicle whispered to her daughter that the uncle had already been secretly transferred by her. ”

"Speaking of today's success, firstly, you think carefully, choose the right time, and know how to poke things out when you separate the family and open the ancestral hall; Second, I have to thank the third young master of Prince Ke's Mansion for his help, if he hadn't come in time to inform his father, and sent the Bai family couple who have been raised in his village, his father may not be able to help you. As for the fifth child, the third young master has been sending people to pay attention, and the old lady sent her away with her front foot, and she was picked up by him with her back foot. Chu Jinmin looked at Sister Hui with a look of approval and said

"From this point of view, our family owes Brother Xia too much, and my son was able to return to Beijing safely from Jiangnan this time thanks to his help." Brother Xuan also sighed.

Chu Jinmin saw Sister Hui hanging her head and didn't say a word, sighed leisurely, touched Sister Hui'er's head and was about to persuade two sentences. was interrupted by Mother Wang's sudden entry into the house: "Master, Aunt Mai outside led the second young lady and the ninth young master to greet you." ”

Sister Hui and Brother Xuan smiled on their faces, and they both avoided Chu Jinmin's eyes.

Chu Jinmin sighed again when he saw this, he didn't think that in less than five years, his family was already so fragmented

"Since they are all here, then they will all go to give Shulan a pillar of incense. As for Mak Shi, you let her stay in her own yard. ”

Mother Wang's face was a little hesitant, she was the nurse of the third lady, and she couldn't pass the word to an aunt like this.

Chu Jinmin saw that Wang's mother was delayed, raised his eyes, and thought carefully: "You are Hui'er's nurse?" What about Mother Xu? ”

"Mother Xu is in the house on the other side of Qingxiang, and the old lady wanted to kill Mother Xu and Moqi, so I quietly sent them to the village." Sister Hui answered on her behalf.

"Oh, yes, you mentioned it in your letter to your father. Now that I'm back, you don't have to be afraid, let her come back, Jinyuan still has to have a mother-in-law who is in charge. "Chu Jinmin still has two concubines, and after he comes back, there are many things that Sister Hui is inconvenient to interfere with, but Mother Xu can do it.

"Okay."

"Let's go, go and show your mother." After saying that, go out and walk ahead.

Aunt Mai, Sister Lian, and Brother Wen stood in the courtyard of the leisurely residence, and when they saw Chu Jinmin walking out, Aunt Mai and Sister Lian rushed over, and shed tears before they spoke.

Chu Jinmin is also the father of Sister Lian and Brother Wen in the end, although they don't love Sister Hui and Brother Xuan, it can be seen that they are in such a situation and they also softened their words: "Sister Lian and Brother Wen are both fathers and go to Jinyuan to meet your mother, as for you to go back to your own yard and stay in the house, the house is chaotic, don't go out at will these days." ”

Aunt Mai was about to speak, but Sister Lian stretched out her hand to stop her blessing and saluted, "Yes." ”

Brother Wen took a step slower, then lowered his head and leaned over to answer yes.

"Sister, my mother will never know us because outsiders are there." Brother Xuan and Sister Hui walked together, Brother Xuan took her hand and whispered.

Sister Hui'er's eyes were moist, and a smile slowly appeared on her face, which had been calm, and she nodded.

In order of eldest and youngest, first Sister Lian and Sister Hui stepped forward to offer incense, followed by Brother Wen and Brother Xuan.

"You all go down first, and Daddy will come to see you later." Chu Jinmin looked at Sister Lian and Brother Wen and said.

Sister Lian has not been close to Chu Jinmin since she was a child, and Brother Wen was still young when Chu Jinmin left, Chu Jinmin said this, although Aunt Mai instructed her to go before, the sister and brother still bowed and retired.

"Let's just sit here and talk, and stay with your mother." Chu Jinmin pointed to the two futons next to him.

Sister Hui and Brother Xuan smiled again. "How have you been all these years, tell your father." Chu Jinmin looked at the two children with loving eyes.

"Daddy, let's tell us what happened when you died in battle, my daughter was really scared when she heard about your death earlier." Sister Hui remembered those days in the past, and her heart palpitated.

"You ghost girl, did you do something bad, and you were afraid that your mother would punish you, so you talked about it again?" Chu Jinmin knocked Sister Hui'er on the head and smiled. Tease her as she did when she was a child, as if her mother, who has become a tablet, will really walk out of the door because of her mischievous mischief, and reprimand her with a straight face.

Sister Hui endured the sourness in her heart, and said with a smile: "That daughter whispered to you, you can't tell your mother to go for a while." ”

"When I was nine years old, the two younger brothers of the godmother's family took me and Brother Xuan and almost burned down the Zhang family ancestral hall, but fortunately, the fire was not big, and only swallowed two beams. When I was ten years old, I was dressed up in ink painting, and Qiu Ju had kung fu, and quietly took me out of the house to visit the temple fair in the evening. There's so much to do out there! It's hilarious! By the way, the younger brother was beaten by the annoying master, and the daughter replaced He Shou Wu, who was given to the master to mend his body, with a few roots dug in the corners. Also, her daughter became the companion of the Seventh Princess, and often cheated for the Seventh Princess without telling the university scholars in the palace. Well, is this a naughty thing today? If you count, it's also my daughter's masterpiece! ”

Sister Hui picked up a few things and said, but Chu Jinmin listened with a guilty face.

"It's good to have you all these years, if it weren't for you, my father would have come back from a trip, I'm afraid I wouldn't even be able to see your brothers and sisters."

"Fortunately, my daughter survived until her father came home alive." Sister Hui'er felt sour, but she blinked a pair of clear apricot eyes and smiled

"But, Dad, my daughter has done something wrong." Sister Hui raised her head and said again.

"What's wrong?" Chu Jinmin smiled and asked
