183 Then to Fuyuan
The six-day journey, because of the casual attitude of Zhao Lingyi and others along the way, on the ninth day, it was considered to have arrived in Fuyuan.
Because someone had been arranged to report to the second master of the Li family's mansion before, it was clear that he had set off on that day.
The second wife of the Li family planned the journey and waited for everyone to arrive, who knew that she had waited for two more days and had not arrived, but she was anxious to wait for the past few days.
Every day, many people were sent out to see if there were any people who had come from afar. But the people who came back in batches said that no one had come from a long distance.
Finally when Zhao Lingyi and the others came, the second wife recited several words of Buddha in a row, looked at Zhao Lingyi carefully up and down for a long time, and looked at Zhao Lingyi's whole body well, so she asked carefully whether it was smooth along the way, how did she spend more days and so on.
The second wife has thought a lot about it these days, for fear that these young people will encounter any trouble on the road, and for fear that these people will be too reckless and cause trouble. Zhao Lingyi and the others were fine, but they frightened her.
After all, the last time they were on the road, they encountered right and wrong in Baoqing, and when they arrived near the capital, Nangong Zhan was chased and killed, and she had to be afraid.
Even, the second wife was wondering, is it because she is on the same road as Nangong Zhan, so Sister Ling is also targeted? The second wife was complaining that she shouldn't have come on the same road as Nangong Zhan, if there were only two sisters and sisters, I was afraid that it would be much safer.
Zhao Lingyi didn't know until this time that they were happy on the road, and they got carried away and delayed for such a long time. But it really shouldn't have been for my aunt and others to worry. If you knew it, you should have sent someone to say it, so as not to worry the elders.
Zhao Lingyi regretted and blamed herself a little, so she hurriedly told them in detail what they saw and heard along the way, and also explained that they were two days late, and apologized.
The second wife is already a lot more relieved when she sees people at this time, and naturally she will not worry about these things with the younger generations, let alone the young people. It's the first time I've been out of the house again. There are even delays on the road, but she thinks too much.
After everything was explained clearly, Zhao Lingyi and others officially met with the second wife and ** milk.
As for the second master and Erlang, the two are not in the house. But he went to the barracks. I won't be back until the evening. Even if you want to, you won't be able to see it.
The second wife is not familiar with Nangong Zhan, although she has seen it once before, she also knows that this is the eldest sister-in-law's maiden nephew. It's not familiar, but this time Nangong Zhan used the juniors to worship her.
The second wife was originally not allowed, after all, Nangong Zhan is the son of King Yan, that is, a serious royal child, compared to the courtiers, it is one level higher.
But Nangong Zhan insisted again and again, so he could only reluctantly accept it.
But because of this, she was much more relieved of Nangong Zhan, she seemed to be a distressed person, and handing over Sister Ling to her would also make people feel much more at ease. It seems that what the eldest sister-in-law said is really good, this prince has a sincere love for Sister Ling in his heart.
The reason why Nangong Zhan insisted on this was that he originally felt that several old ladies of the Li family really loved Zhao Lingyi, so he was also willing to treat them seriously as elders. If you talk about it carefully, in Nangong Zhan's heart, he may have more respect for the three masters of the Li family than for Zhao Zhongkang.
After all, what happened in the Dingguo Mansion over the years has not been hidden from Nangong Zhan, and Nangong Zhan has a heart, so he naturally doesn't know it.
The second wife knew that a few people were coming back, so she asked people to clean the yard in advance for them to live in.
Not only the two nephews, but even Nangong Zhan, who was traveling with him, and the second wife were also prepared after thinking about it again. Although it is said that this master is here to join the army, no one knows what the emperor means, so it is better to have a good birth.
This is also the result of the second wife and the second master's deliberation, even if Nangong Zhan in their imagination is stronger than ordinary royal children, but he is also pampered, how can he stand the pain of the border barracks. Thinking that even if he came to the border pass, Zuo had only been here for half a year, and he had been living and raising in the house, could it be that he could really go to the barracks to suffer and suffer?
However, Nangong Zhan insisted on refusing to stay in the courtyard that the second wife had prepared, and repeatedly pleaded guilty and said that he should not have the kindness of the second aunt, and that since he arrived in Fuyuan, he would go to the military camp to not resist the decree. even went to the army to report immediately, and even the second wife refused to stay.
The second wife stayed with each other, and Nangong Zhancai said that he would go to the army to report first, and then come to see him in the evening.
Nangong Zhan is like this, but he has his thoughts, the children of the royal family usually stay away from important places like the military camp, but this time the emperor suddenly arranged for him to come, but the purpose was not clear, so even if he arrived in Fuyuan, he still had to be cautious and careful.
If he lives in the boss's house as soon as he comes this time, and has a close relationship with the general, he is afraid that it will be a disaster if he returns to the capital. Therefore, although he really wanted to have more contact with Zhao Lingyi for a while, he finally endured it. They are still young and have a lifetime of time, and they can't afford to be jealous for this moment.
Although the emperor didn't explicitly say what he was asked to do, Nangong Zhan guessed that among the guards around him, there must be someone arranged by the emperor, so it was better to be cautious and careful, otherwise he would not be able to get in for the rest of his life.
Zhao Lingyi didn't force Nangong Zhan, after all, he was a man, and he didn't come to the border to play with her this time, so it was better to let him go where he should go.
Besides, Zhao Lingyi felt that she didn't have nothing to do to hang out, and without Nangong Zhan by her side, maybe her activities would be more free.
Because when she came last time, Zhao Lingyi already knew that the life at the border pass was simple, not like there was such a big pomp in the capital, so when she came this time, she brought few people, so she only brought Qingzhi and Li Mu.
Now the master and servants live in a courtyard, but they feel empty, and the second wife has specially settled two little maids and two mothers-in-law to serve Zhao Lingyi.
Although Zhao Lingyi repeatedly refused, Zhao Lingyi could only accept how the second wife was willing. After all, Mother Li is not her subordinate, many things. Although she will rush to do it, Zhao Lingyi generally does not allow her to do it.
Speaking of which, Mother Li is more like a guest, living in the wing room of Zhao Lingyi's courtyard.
Zhao Lingyi gave a little maid arranged for her by her second aunt to Mother Li, so that she could serve her.
Mother Li was actually a little scared about this, after all, for so many years, she had never lived such a life, but she didn't want her son to follow Zhao Lingyi, but instead had a little maid to call her.
Zhao Lingyi and others finished changing clothes and washing. **Milk's banquet is ready. Zhao Lingyi and the others simply had some lunch, and then went back to rest without mentioning it. I have been playing for a long time along the way, but I am more tired than the last time I came.
Zhao Lingyi had lunch and slept for two hours. It's a relief. With spirit.
Although Li's mother has the heart to see her son. But Li Yueshan was arranged by Li Jiaerlang, but it was not good for other people in the mansion to invite people to come, and she was tired when she looked at Zhao Lingyi. I couldn't bear to let Zhao Lingyi worry about it, so I could only wait for the time being.
Zhao Lingyi just finished freshening up, and said that the general, Erlang and others had returned from the barracks, and said that the general came with the prince of Yanwang, and said that he was going to pick up the wind for the prince at night.
Zhao Lingyi listened, and took people out without being busy. Unexpectedly, Li Erlang even brought Li Yueshan back.
Li Yueshan's mother and son have never been separated like this for more than 20 years, and now they have been separated for several months.
Everyone didn't want his mother and son to be uncomfortable, so the second wife asked them to give them a table of banquets, and let their mother and son talk alone in the wing.
There were two tables in the main hall, men and women sat separately, Li Erye, Li Erlang, Nangong Zhan and Zhao Erlang sat in one seat, and the second wife and ** grandmother accompanied Zhao Lingyi to sit in one seat.
Because the border pass was open and open, there was no screen in the middle to separate them, and everyone was still talking and eating in one place, and each other's every move was clear.
Nangong Zhan was very respectful to everyone, and regarded himself as a junior everywhere, which made the second master very surprised. After all, the royal children feel that they are more or less noble, so they have a feeling that their eyes are above the top, and now there is a Nangong Zhan, who grew up in a serious palace, such a humble attitude is surprising.
However, slowly the second master will get used to it, even if Nangong Zhan is not a junior now, but the relationship with Zhao Lingyi is already an ironclad matter, and he will always be called second uncle in the future. It should also be okay to receive his gifts.
Even, the second master thought that it happened that the emperor asked him to come to the military camp for half a year, so that he could take a good look at whether Nangong Zhan was really consistent with his words and deeds, and whether he was a person who could be relied on for life.
The two masters only have two nephews, one is in the palace, and the other is Zhao Lingyi, who has lost his mother and his father can't pass the test, he naturally hopes that the nephews can also live happily. And Zhao Lingyi, as a girl, lost her mother in the first half of her life, which is already very pitiful, and he hopes to find Ruyi Langjun and get the happiness of the second half of her life.
Therefore, when the second master looked at Nangong Zhan, he had a little taste of scrutiny, Nangong Zhan grew up in the small palace, but he was not weak in observing words and feelings, so he could naturally see what the second master meant, but he felt that he was sincere, so he was not afraid of the second master scrutinizing him.
Although a meal is not as luxurious and exquisite as the capital, it is just a simple rural game, but the guests and hosts are happy, and the second master is even drunk. Fortunately, Nangong Zhan is a person who can hold it, and he didn't get drunk in the end.
After the banquet was dispersed, Nangong Zhan insisted on returning to live in the barracks, but the second master couldn't keep it, so he followed him, just settled someone to send him there.
Li Yueshan went back early after talking to his mother, and now the farm is only initially developing, and he is inseparable from him everywhere, plus seeing that his mother's body has been completely healed, and there are girls around to serve, knowing that the girl does not treat her mother as a general servant, she naturally feels more at ease and appreciates the benefits of Zhao Lingyi.
Li's mother repeatedly taught her son to know how to be grateful, and Li Yueshan became more and more cautious, just eager to raise a large number of foxes and mink to repay the girl's kindness.
When Zhao Lingyi returned to the room at night, Li's mother was already there, so Zhao Lingyi asked with a smile: "Why doesn't mom get together with her son more?" It's been a long time since you've seen each other. ”
"Shan'er has something to do, and now I can rest assured that he is doing well. In the end, the girl's business is the big thing. Besides, we have to stay here for a while, so why can't we meet. Besides, I'm thinking about going to the farm in a few days. Don't look down on my wife, girl, I used to be a good hand at raising foxes and minks, but then I got sick and slowly fell abandoned. "Mother Li was an orphan daughter adopted by Li Yueshan's grandfather and grandmother, she grew up in the Li family, and naturally learned this craft, and later married Li Yueshan's father, so she was naturally a husband and wife.
"I've never heard my mother talk about it, you used to do this." Qing Zhi said with some surprise.
Along the way, the relationship between Qingzhi and Li's mother has become better and better than when they were in the capital, and they talk much more casually.
"How can you know. These are all old things, why bother to take it out and say it, but now that I am here, I heard Shan'er talk about it, so I just said it in passing. The girl just listened to the joke. Mother Li was a little embarrassed, and there was a little shyness on her face that was no longer young.
"Mom should have said it earlier, I didn't know you knew that."
"The girl is thirsty for talent, I can't say that I can't listen to what my mother says, and the girl still wants to find a Zhuangzi for her mother, so that her mother can also raise some mink, foxes or something." Qing Zhi saw Zhao Lingyi's surprised appearance, and couldn't help but urge her to narrow her way.
Zhao Lingyi did have such thoughts, but after being said by Qingzhi, she was a little embarrassed, so she said angrily: "You girl, you are becoming more and more unruly." ”
"Now that I'm old, I'm afraid it's not going to help, if I'm twenty years younger, even the mountains are not as good as my means." Mother Li was about to say that she was not modest, but said with a smile.
However, Zhao Lingyi's heart was scheming.
She left Mother Li in the capital before, maybe in the hearts of Li Yueshan's mother and son, they all thought that they wanted to use Mother Li as a means to control Li Yueshan, but Zhao Lingyi really didn't have such thoughts in her heart. Her idea was that Mother Li's poison had not been completely lifted at that time, and Mother Li was not in good health at the time and was not suitable for long-distance travel, so she was left in the capital for a period of time.
Now that Mother Li is in good health, she naturally doesn't have to stay in the capital anymore, and it may be better if she can help Li Yueshan in Fuyuan. What's more, their mother and son were originally dependent on each other to live their lives, and after leaving for such a long time, I am afraid that they are not suitable for each other, so it is better to let their mother and son members be members, which is a good thing.
However, Zhao Lingyi's thoughts, Li Mu and Li Yueshan naturally didn't know, even Qingzhi, who knew Zhao Lingyi best, never thought that the girl would be so relieved of Li Yueshan. (To be continued......)
