Chapter 22 Returning Home

Before dawn the next day, Fang Wanru ordered someone to take the sign in the house, urged the carriage to get ready, and instructed Li's mother again and again, so that the group rushed early and went to Xiaoqianzhuang to pick up people.

Xiaoqianzhuang is only fifty or sixty miles away from Taizhou, and the group got an errand, and did not dare to stay slow, so they hurried all the way and finally arrived at the village in Chenshi.

The people in the village are naturally enthusiastic, thinking that the hard days are finally over. Ruyi and Chunli were even more happy, and when they got the letter, they ran to Qin Daixin's yard and hurriedly told Qin Daixin.

"Miss, the carriage has entered the courtyard, and people are afraid that they are freshening up, and they will come in a while." Chunli was quick and grabbed the lines that Ruyi wanted to say.

"Miss, do you want to get ready and clean up?" Ruyi has always done things safely, but now she can't help but speak eagerly, which shows how happy she is.

Although Qin Daixin couldn't understand why the person who picked her up came so suddenly, she believed that it was not as simple as simply letting her go back.

Based on the calculations of those women in the house, what kind of black pot do you want to carry?

"Don't move yet." Qin Daixin commanded and said, "Who are the people who came." ”

"It's Madame Li in Madame's house, talking to Mama Zheng in the backyard, I'm afraid I'm going to come over in a while." Ruyi knows that the young lady has a calculation, but it is a good thing to be able to go back to the house! Why is the young lady like this?

"It's not necessarily a good thing." As if she had guessed Ruyi's thoughts, Qin Dai's heart opened her mouth and shattered the good wishes in Ruyi's heart.

Before I had time to elaborate, as soon as the curtain was lifted, Mother Li and Mother Zheng came in together and saluted Qin Daixin, and Mother Li said: "The slave maid was ordered by Madame to take the third lady back to the house." ”

Qin Dai was happy in her heart, but there was no smile in her eyes, and she asked, "What about Mother Ding?" ”

Since the last time Mrs. Ding was angry in Qin Daixin's courtyard, she didn't dare to come to her.

"We're arranging for someone to clean up your things!" Mother Zheng glanced at the two girls on the side and said, "Why are you so blind, don't you hurry up and clean up?" ”

Ruyi and Chunli didn't dare to move, they secretly glanced at Qin Daixin, and when they saw her nodding, they moved, called the girl in the courtyard, and began to pack up a room of things and belongings.

"Mom has worked hard all the way, can grandmother's anger be gone?" Qin Dai's heart looked heartless, which made the flowers on Li's mother's face bloom more luxuriantly.

"How can the grandparents and grandchildren be angry, the old lady is really distressed, she can't help it for a long time, if it weren't for what she said, I'm afraid she would have sent someone a long time ago." Then as if remembering something, he said: "Aunt Su has vomited a lot recently, and she can't eat a few bites of rice." The young lady went back, just to reassure her. ”

People have talked about this, and Qin Dai will be a fool if he doesn't understand. Sooner or later, she won't be able to escape the fate of returning to Qin Mansion, so it's better to hurry up early!

The large pieces of furniture in the house are original, free from moving and lifting, and the small and delicate precious objects are wrapped and wrapped as desired, and they will never be faked by others. The ornaments and gadgets were also sealed in boxes and loaded into carriages. There are not many things, but there are also four large carriages, among which Qin Daixin's hot pot and barbecue stove, as well as those large and small marinade sauces, and hot pot base jars occupy a lot of space.

It was noon when we packed up, everyone had a hasty meal, and then went on the road together, and the team of more than 20 people was also spectacular.

Qin Daixin's carriage was in the center of the procession, with a canopy top and filament tassels, but it was impossible to tell that it was Miss Shuchu's carriage. The carriage went all the way to the east, and the dust went away, Qin Daixin couldn't help but lift the curtain and look out of the car, the mountains in the distance were continuous, the shadows of the trees were sufficient, and there was an indescribable aura between the mountains and rivers, and the clouds on the horizon were particularly white, and they were moving slowly and leisurely.

This kind of day of high and leisurely will be difficult to feel in the future. Lowering the curtain, her mood calmed down, and she couldn't hide from what she should face.

The carriage moved at full speed and finally arrived in Taizhou City before the New Year's dinner. Pedestrians on the road are either out of the city or into the city, quite lively, and the pedestrians on both sides of the road see the carriage procession, and they have to avoid both sides of the road. After entering the city, the speed of the carriage slowed down significantly, and after a slow journey, it quickly stopped.

A small servant came to report that the Qin Mansion had arrived.

Ruyi Chunli got out of the car first, moved a footstool to help Qin Daixin down, the blue brick high wall and the vermilion lacquer gate in front of her were the side doors of the Qin Mansion, she walked out of this house more than three months ago, and after more than three months, she returned here.

Someone came to greet him at the gatehouse, saying that the old lady had already sent a message, and asked the third lady to meet her as soon as she arrived.

Qin Daixin instructed Chunli to arrange a few things, and let Ruyi follow her to the Fang family's garden.

When the whole Qin Mansion was first built, it was designed and planned by famous craftsmen, and the pavilions and pavilions in the whole park, the small bridges and flowing water, and the cloister courtyard were all exquisite and meticulous, and the taste was extraordinary. At this time, it is the middle of winter, the courtyard is slightly depressed, but it is harmless, a few beads of winter cypress are full of green, white snow and falling branches, quite a few different kinds of beauty.

Fang's courtyard was at the back of the inner house, and after walking for a long time, Qin Daixin came to the old lady's courtyard, different from other courtyards in the Qin Mansion, the mottled marks on the wall seemed to tell its age, as if it had not been repaired for a long time, the bluestone corridor was swept clean, and there was no snow under the corridor, which showed that the slaves were doing their best.

A mother-in-law led the way and let Qin Daixin into a warm pavilion, and a little girl picked up the curtain and shouted in a formal manner: "The third lady is here." ”

Qin Daixin lowered her eyebrows and entered the warm pavilion smoothly, only to see the old lady sitting on the Luohan bed, wearing a still simple and unpretentious, blue-faced gown, a brown skirt, also without lines and flowers, only with a gold inlaid skirt, slightly extravagant, gray hair only pulled a simple bun, only two ordinary transparent white hostas, only two plum blossom-shaped silver earrings on the ears, but still holding the string of the same size, moist color, rare superb jade Buddha beads.

Qin Dai stepped forward to ask for peace, and someone hurriedly took out the soft cushion, although she was unwilling, she knew that she had to kneel.

kowtowed according to the ancient rules, but Qin Daixin didn't dare to get up, so she had to kneel on the mat and wait for the old lady to speak.

"Coming back?" The old lady smiled, but gave Mother Wan a look on the side.

Mother Wan came to her senses, took an ebony tray from the girl on the side, turned to Qin Daixin's side and said, "It's good that the third lady is back, but it makes the old lady worry for a while." After speaking, he handed the wooden plate to Qin Daixin.

Is this to pour tea to apologize?

Qin Daixin took it from Mother Wan's hand, hurriedly raised her head, and said in her mouth: "Grandmother, the unfilial granddaughter is back, I just hope that the grandmother will not be angry anymore for the sake of her granddaughter's youth and ignorance." ”

Fang took it with kind eyebrows, took a sip and said, "How can I really be angry with you, it's just that I'm afraid that you are young and have gone astray, so it's good to come back now." Get up and bow to your mother, who has been thinking of you! ”

The girl hurriedly came over to help Qin Daixin, and then she saw that Fang Wanru was also there, sitting at the bottom of Fang's head, all over her body, and even the clothes were shining, which was really extraordinary.

"Mother." Qin Dai saluted and called softly, her expression was kind, as if she was her mother.

Fang Wanru's eyes flashed, and she smiled: "It's good to be back." ”

"Sit down, sit down." The old lady spoke, how could Qin Daixin disobey, picked a chair under Fang Wanru and sat down, and behaved slightly contrived.

"Jiafu invited our daughters to go to enjoy the plum blossoms tomorrow, I discussed it with your mother and wanted you to go too." Fang Shi spoke unhurriedly, but his eyes kept staring at Qin Dai's heart, as if he wanted to find something out of it.

Qin Dai was taken aback in her heart, but she remained silent on the surface, turned her head and asked, "Did grandmother specially ask me to come back to Jiafu?" She said this to Fang Wanru, with a look of pride on her face.

Fang didn't care about this, and said with a smile: "There are few female dependents in our house, only a few of you are the same age, just follow to take a look, I called Xiao Er, Xiao Si, and let Xiao Wu go to see the world, only your mother and your sister-in-law are suffering, looking at you a few skin monkeys." ”

Qin Dai smiled in her heart, but she didn't feel any joy in her heart, thinking that tomorrow might be an interesting day.

Fang Shi talked for a while, then shirked his own fatigue, and sent Wan's mother to send it, Fang Wanru only said that she still had to deal with things, so she asked Qin Daixin to go back to her yard to tidy up, so that she could entertain tomorrow's plum blossom party.

Ruyi greeted Qin Daixin, sent Fang Wanru away, and walked to her yard.

"Miss, don't you go to your aunt's yard to have a look?" There is a bit of expectation in the words.

Qin Daixin hesitated for a moment, and said with a smile: "You lead the way ahead!" ”

Ruyi was happy for a moment, and didn't think about it, she walked directly to the front of Qin Daixin and walked towards Aunt Su's yard.

The corridor in the garden is winding path, rockery and strange stones, although there is less luxuriant branches, the beautiful scenery of flowers, but the dead wood and snow are also a little interesting, unconsciously, the master and servant came to the orchid garden.

Qin Daixin entered the courtyard, and saw the mother-in-law and the girl shuttling inside, so busy, completely different from the lazy behavior of the mother-in-law in other courtyards. After thinking about it, I understood a little, now that Su is pregnant, it is the time to be favored, even if the subordinates have nothing to do, they are afraid that they have to find something to do.

When the girls and mothers-in-law saw Qin Daixin, they all looked incredulous, this young lady's driver hadn't been to Orchid Garden for a long time.

The girls hurriedly opened the curtain and said happily: "The third lady is here." ”
