Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Troubles
About half a month later, the group finally arrived in the territory of Chicheng in Huzhou in late July, and rushed to the Shen mansion before dark.
After getting out of the carriage, Tang Shaohe saw many people standing outside the gate of the Shen Mansion, and everyone had a happy smile on their faces.
However, she didn't know everyone here, and she didn't even know what to call them, for fear of being embarrassed by the wrong shout.
So she hung her head in silence, blushed cheeks, and froze in place with a wamped expression.
Tang Jinghua had a kind of demeanor like everyone, calmly and calmly followed Shen Dinghang's side, while carefully recognizing people, he nodded and smiled at the people who came out to greet him.
Tang Shaohe couldn't help but purse his lips and smile when he saw it, who did my brother learn from? Like a little grown-up.
Suddenly, a little boy with a round head and a round face rushed to her, tilted his head to look at her, and said in surprise: "Dad! Is this my cousin? It's so good-looking, like ...... Like a fairy. ”
"Nonsense! Why don't you go back to the house and study, have you finished the homework assigned by Mr. today? Daddy spot check later! Shen Dinghang said indifferently.
The little boy blinked, threw himself into a woman's arms with a small mouth, and said wildly: "Mother, Daddy is a murderer again, punish him for having no food!" ”
Everyone laughed, pointed at the little boy and laughed, and then turned their eyes to Tang Shaohe's two siblings.
"Alright, let's all go back to the house. I see that these two sisters and brothers are also tired, let them go into the house to rest for a while, and wait for Ming'er to go to Jiaying Pavilion to meet the old lady. The other woman smiled, took the hands of the two siblings as if familiar, and slowly entered the house.
The crowd responded cheerfully. Then he followed him into the main courtyard.
Tang Shaohe was deeply impressed by this woman, with a melon seed face, as if she was smiling. A pair of shining eyes glowing with bright stars, so beautiful that it is suffocating.
This is the eldest uncle's wife, Huang, who has two sons under her knees, and Tang Shaohe should call her the eldest uncle.
Entering the house, Shen Dinghang was worried that the two sisters and brothers would not be able to fully recognize their identities, so he couldn't help but make a formal introduction.
After a round of introductions, Tang Shaohe has probably an understanding.
She had three uncles. uncle Shen Dingkang; second uncle Shen Dingluo; Third uncle Shen Dinghang.
It's strange to say. Each of the three uncles had two sons, but no daughter.
This made Tang Shaohe feel very surprised, could this be his grandmother's hard work. The reason why you want to take her, the only granddaughter who is related by blood?
After a long while, dinner was arranged.
Everyone went to the flower hall to eat, and the banquet was divided into three tables, two for men. A table of women.
Tang Shaohe could feel the strange gazes of his cousin and cousin projecting at her. Maybe it's because it's the first time we've met?
After the feast was over, everyone went back to their own courtyards.
The eldest aunt Huang and the others led the two sisters and brothers to a courtyard with a quiet environment, and said with a gentle smile: "You guys should rest here tonight." Your eldest uncle went out on errands, and I haven't seen him for a while, so I'll take you to see him tomorrow. ”
Tang Shaohe's two sisters and brothers hurriedly nodded and agreed, and led the maids and servants sent by their aunts to serve out of the door together, and respectfully sent the three aunts out of the Zitong courtyard.
The younger brother and the two girls live on both sides of her next door, and they are also served by special people. The two girls shook their heads desperately and refused. She had no choice but to give up persuasion and let the two girls stay by her side.
Wait until everything is freshened up. Tang Shaohe changed into dry clothes, lay quietly on the bed, and went through everyone in the Shen Mansion in his mind one by one.
Thinking about it, I fell asleep at some point. Until the early morning of the next day, she was woken up by Xia Tian and Qiu He.
She opened her sleepy eyes and looked at the light outside the window, and suddenly woke up.
Yes! She has now arrived at her grandfather's mansion, and this time she came mainly to accompany her grandmother, and she must not live up to her uncle's expectations and concerns for her.
Thinking of this, she hurriedly walked down to the ground, called the maid to freshen up and change her clothes, and put on a pink and purple dress and went out of the room.
When I came to my brother's room, I saw that the bed was empty, I looked back at the two girls, and asked nervously, "Where is the little master?" Where did it go? ”
Xia Tian looked up at her with a smile and replied softly, "The young master went to the backyard for morning exercises, and he will be back in a while." ”
Tang Shaohe breathed a sigh of relief, a smile as warm as the sun appeared on his face, and said slowly: "Go and call him back, my aunt and uncle will come later." ”
The two girls whispered their promises, and then quickly ran out of the courtyard and walked into the backyard.
Back in the house, Tang Shaohe instructed the maid to prepare breakfast, and then sat at the table and waited for Tang Jinghua's arrival.
"Sister, I'm back." Tang Jinghua's small figure walked in front of her with steady steps.
Looking at the rich and delicious breakfast on the table, he grinned heartily, sat down beside her and picked up the chopsticks, and said in a brisk tone: "Sister, my aunt treats us so well!" ”
"Well, then Jinghua should listen to his aunt more, don't make people laugh." Tang Shaohe nodded with a smile and joked to him.
That's right! My aunt treated them very well, eating and sleeping well and serving them, which made her feel like she was back in her own home.
It's a pity that this is my mother's maiden home, and my mother will never come back......
Thinking of this, the tip of her nose was sour, and her eyes were slightly red.
With her brother beside her, she tilted her head and blinked her eyes vigorously to keep the hot tears from slipping down the corners of her eyes.
It's just that there are some things that she can't understand, why when her parents died, her grandfather didn't say a word that they wanted to adopt their sister and brother?
According to the warm hospitality of my uncles and aunts yesterday, I should have brought them back for adoption as soon as possible, so why did I think of taking them over to visit my sick grandmother now?
She remembered that when she mentioned her children, her mother had mentioned to her how her grandmother was kind and kind, and how her uncles were mischievous...... But he didn't mention his grandfather!
In this way, it is not that the mother does not miss her mother's family, but that there is some reason why she does not want to go back.
She thought about it for a moment, and finally came to the conclusion that her mother must have had an awkward relationship with her grandfather, otherwise it would not have been possible to mention her grandfather so disrespectfully.
But what really happened between my mother and my grandfather? When did they stop seeing each other?
She only heard that her maternal grandfather had gone through two generations of dynasty changes, and he was tired of being a scholar of Hallym University, and he was a first-class official in the court.
Tang Shaohe sighed faintly, I don't know what his grandfather is? Do you get along well? When will you be back?
For her grandfather, whom she had never met, she was indeed a little worried, afraid that he would be unhappy or angry, so she and her younger brother drove her and her younger brother back to the Tang Mansion.
Hopefully, her grandfather wasn't the fickle kind of person, otherwise she really didn't know how to get along with him, which bothered her a little. (To be continued......)
