Mrs. Tai asked the county lord of Huiyi a few words, the county lord of Huiyi humbly replied and flattered Mrs. Tai a few words imperceptibly, Mrs. Tai was very happy, this time she liked the county lord of Huiyi more and more, and she couldn't wait to let her grandson marry the county lord of Huiyi that day, and the eyes of the county lord of Huiyi at the moment were like looking at the granddaughter-in-law.

The county lord of Huiyi is smart, how could she not see the thoughts of this old woman, although she smiled and coped with it, but she was very disdainful in her heart, if it wasn't for her brother to mention it, and for the sake of General Lou's face, how could she come to the small mansion of this five-rank official, and be made a joke about marriage by such an old woman who doesn't know how to advance or retreat.

I don't want to think about it, she will marry a concubine who has not yet been named in the Lou family?

Even if she agreed, the old lady would not agree.

In the afternoon, the ladies and ladies left one after another.

The guests were sent off at home, and the old lady called the eldest lady and the third lady to talk.

first talked about Lou Yushu's marriage, the old lady was interested in the county lord of Huiyi, the old lady mentioned it in front of the eldest lady, the eldest lady clapped her hands and said that when the second uncle came back, she would let the second uncle personally mention it to the king of Hejian, and said that the king of Jingjun, if Lou Xue can marry the king of Jingjun, this is not a double happiness!

The old lady and the eldest lady said happily, as if they had seen Lou Yushu marry the county lord of Huiyi, and Lou Xue was picked up by the king of Jingjun in a sedan chair.

The third lady sat next to her and secretly rolled her eyes, secretly saying that these two old women were clearly daydreaming!

When the two of them finally had enough of fantasizing, the doctor sighed and said, "Today, my daughter-in-law has something to ask my mother for!" ”

"What's the matter? Look at your sad face. Go ahead! The old lady took a sip of tea and was in a good mood.

The little maid next to her was gently shaking her fan, which made her breathe a sigh of relief.

The eldest lady saw that the old lady was in a happy mood, so she stopped spitting.

"Mother, isn't this second uncle coming back? I heard that the four girls also returned to Beijing with them, and the house had been renovated before, but they hadn't cleaned up the yard for the second uncle and the four girls! Mother, look ......"

It turned out that since General Lou had returned to Beijing, he naturally wanted to live in the main house. The main house of the Lou family was changed once when General Lou was named the general of Zhenbei. Later, it was renovated again, because General Lou had been on the border for many years and was not allowed to return to Beijing, and the courtyard of the second room was not prepared at all.

The old lady thought of her second son being so disobedient to herself. It didn't take long for him to be the title of the old county king. There is still depression in my heart.

"Do you still have an empty yard at home?"

The Lou family is not a noble family. The most prosperous period of the family was only the years when General Lou was a general in the north, and the house in Shengjing was not big.

And the big house and the second room almost all of them are occupied, and the old lady herself also occupies the best feng shui yard in Lou's mansion.

All that's left now are the small courtyards in the horns. One of them is the Falling Flower Garden, and the other is the Listening Lotus Pavilion. One south and one north, are all dark small courtyards, especially listening to the lotus small building, although the name is elegant, but it is in the westernmost part of Lou Mansion, that is, a few small rooms next to the pond, which used to be used to put firewood in the small kitchen of the big house.

Even if you put firewood, because the house is damp, you have to take it out to dry every once in a while.

"There are only the Falling Flower Courtyard and the Listening Lotus Xiaozhu at home." The eldest lady whispered, glancing at the old lady's face from time to time as she spoke.

The third lady listened quietly and did not express her opinion.

"The Falling Flower Courtyard is used improvised, but the listening to the lotus Xiaozhu is really a little shabby." The old lady touched a string of Buddhist beads on her wrist and said.

As soon as the old lady said this, the hearts of the two ladies were lifted.

The courtyards in Lou's mansion have long been full, and many courtyards have long been occupied by big houses and three rooms, and now they want to take meat from their mouths, how is it possible!

General Lou is also the son of the old lady, although he disobeys her, but most of the glory of the Lou family is brought by him, and when her son comes back, although she is not very happy, she does not want to treat her son badly.

"Chengfeng Courtyard has good lighting, you can vacate it for the second child to live, a big man comes back, although he is a military general, but he must also have a place to work at home, and the study room of Juyingtang in the front yard is vacated for the second child to work and entertain guests. As for the four girls, hmph, I don't know what to do since I was a child, and now that I'm in time, I can't stay at home for two years, so I'll arrange it in Tinghe Xiaozhu! The old lady made a decision in a few words, and it can be seen that although this family is the eldest lady, the old lady still has the idea for some major matters.

The eldest lady and the third lady heard the old lady's words, and their faces immediately changed, Chengfeng Courtyard is the courtyard where Lou Liqin, the third sister-in-law, lives, and now they want to let their beloved son move out, where is the third lady willing!

And the study in the front yard Juyingtang is what the eldest lord Lou Xinzhi has been using, and it will also be vacated to General Lou, and the eldest lady naturally does not approve.

"Mother, Liqin is going to participate in the Autumn Festival in a few days, where can I disturb him at this time, what if this child doesn't do well in the exam!" The third lady hurriedly detoured.

"Mother, I know that I can't have a study in the front yard, he is the head of the family, and he has to take care of everything in the family!" The eldest lady also said.

The old lady was troubled by the quarrel between the two daughters-in-law, "Okay, you all make a step and let Liqin move to Luohuayuan, and when his second uncle comes back, I will mention it to his second uncle, see if I can find some way for him, save a day and know how to die, and the Juyingtang on the boss's side will clean up a few more rooms and come out, so that the two brothers will be half each." ”

The old lady said this, and the quarrel between the two daughters-in-law was calmed.

Before leaving, the old lady instructed the two to move quickly, and they had to clean up the place in the next two days.

When they went out, the eldest lady and the third lady each glanced at each other and went to make arrangements.

Lou Zheng and his entourage went south and passed through Hangzhou Mansion, and they were going to Tianjin and Beijing in a few days, and once they arrived at Tianjin and Beijing, they were very close to Shengjing.

At the Shili Pavilion in Hongshi Town, outside the boundary of Jinjing, there was a team of people parked, about thirty or forty people, all of whom were the guards of His Royal Highness King Rui.

The same black color guard uniform, next to the tea house at the Shili Pavilion, the only man with a golden crown who sat was also wearing a black brocade robe, but the brocade robe was embroidered with complicated patterns, and at a glance it was not ordinary, and such a precious fabric was something that ordinary people could not afford to wear.

A middle-aged couple who run a tea house tremblingly brought tea to Xiao Zhe.

Chang Shunde disliked that the copper kettle containing tea was not clean, and was about to scold, but was stopped by Xiao Zhe.

"Where are there so many rules outside, pour tea, and by the way, let the proprietress prepare some tea for the guards."

Chang Shunde nodded again and again.

Wang Che walked to the master's side with a long sword and poured a cup of water soaked in willow leaves and buds for the master, "Your Highness, let's drink a cup of tea to quench your thirst first." ”
