The carriage of Xu Qirong and his entourage passed all the way through Yanluo Xiejie and Jiuru Lane, entered Ruyi Lane, and stopped in front of the vermilion gate.

There are two stone lions on the left and one on the right in front of the door, a little guy who guards the door is bored and sits next to the stone lion and eats melon seeds, the door is open, but it is empty, except for this gatekeeper, there is no one else.

Yu Qiu frowned, and muttered in her heart, this girl has arrived at the door, why is there no one to greet her?

Gao Bo got off the horse, with a gloomy face, glared at the little guy and said, "Fifth Miss is back, why are you still sitting here?" ”

The little guy was afraid of Uncle Gao, so he hurriedly stood up and said, "The fourth master went out, the second lady was sick, and the second lady took someone to take care of her." The old lady told me to stay here, and they waited for the fifth lady at the second gate! ”

Seeing that Uncle Gao's face turned around, the little girl continued: "Miss Five, the wives and sisters in the house are looking forward to it every day, today I heard that Miss Five is coming, the old lady was happy and rewarded a lot of money!" ”

Gao Bo raised his eyebrows: "Don't lead the way yet!" As he spoke, he turned around and was about to help Xu Qirong get out of the carriage, but Xu Qirong grabbed Yu Qiu's hand by himself. Gao Bo concealed the loss in his heart, and while accompanying Xu Qirong inside, he instructed his mother-in-law and servants to carefully move Xu Qirong's things in.

After Xu Changfang, the ancestor of the Xu family, moved to the capital, because he was busy working hard, his heirs were not rich. There are only two concubines and one concubine. The eldest son, Xu Jinyan, is an all-round man in civil and military affairs, and he ordered a baby kiss with the Qiao family, the cousin of the Qiu family in Jiuru Lane. Later, the Qiao family moved out of the capital, and there was no contact for more than ten years, and the Xu family thought that this verbal doll had been invalidated. When Xu Jinyan was eighteen years old, he was quite appreciated by Emperor Chen Qian, who had not yet ascended the throne at that time, and he was still the princess of Pingtai Chen Hongyu of the previous dynasty. The eldest son Xu Tingjin was five years old, and the Qiao family was suddenly in trouble, and Qiao Yurong, who had ordered a baby with Xu Jinyan, brought her niece Qiao Shuiyao to find her. Xu Jinyan had no choice, and after discussing with Princess Pingtai, he married Qiao Yurong as his wife. Later, Xu Jinyan gave birth to the second son Xu Tingyuan with Princess Pingtai, who was Xu Qirong's father. Not long after Xu Tingyuan was born, Xu Jinyan died in an accident.

The second son, Xu Jinxing, married Guo Pingyao, the eldest daughter of Guo Xingzhong, the governor of Xuzhou from Wupin, and had two sons-in-law, a daughter-in-law and a concubine.

Xu Changfang's vein can be said to be thin, especially the eldest son Xu Jinyan. Moreover, when Xu Jinyan died, his two children, one was six years old and the other had just turned one year, both of whom were ignorant. Therefore, after Xu Changfang's death, the two rooms were not separated.

Therefore, the ranking of the descendants of the Xu family, Xu Jinyan and Xu Jinxing are ranked together. The eldest lord is the eldest son of Princess Xu Jinyan and Princess Pingtai, and his wife is Qiao Shuiyao, the niece brought by Qiao Yurong, and there are the eldest uncle Xu Cheng, the fourth master Xu You and the third lady Xu Qiyun under his knees. The second master is the sister-in-law of the second old lady Xu Jinxing and Guo's family, his wife Liu, and the second master Xu Jia, the fifth master Xu Zhao, the sixth master Xu Zhan and the eldest lady Xu Qiyao, among which Xu Jia and Xu Zhao are both concubines. The third old man Xu Tingbai is the concubine of the second old lady, his wife Su, and the third master Xu Sheng and the fourth lady Xu Qiyu under his knees. The fourth master, Xu Tingyuan, is the second son of Xu Jinyan and Princess Pingtai, the deceased wife Shen, and only the two daughters of the second lady Xu Qijin and the fifth lady Xu Qirong under his knees. The fifth lord Xu Tingrui, his wife Bai, only the sixth miss Xu Qimoth and the seventh miss Xu Qidie are a pair of concubines. As for the only aunt and grandmother, Xu Xuan'er, her husband's family is the Qiu family next door.

Five years after Xu Jinyan's death, Princess Pingtai took the initiative to ask and went to the Buddhist hall without asking about mundane matters. Because Qiao's had nothing to do, his niece who followed him married Xu Tingjin, so he also followed Xu Tingjin into a room to live. It doesn't matter. Therefore, at present, the middle feed of the Xu family is managed by the second old lady Guo and the second wife Liu.

Princess Pingtai doesn't care about things, and Qiao's has nothing to rely on, so the old lady in the mouthman is Guo's.

Xu Qirong didn't look at Uncle Gao, and took Yu Qiu to take care of himself, and Pearl Jade and Mother Liu and Mother Han hurriedly followed.

When I arrived at the second gate, the red Feicui danced in fragrant sideburns, and Mrs. Guo really took the wives and girls to wait here.

It stands to reason that Xu Qirong is the fifth lady of the Xu family, and when she comes back, Mrs. Guo can send the face-wrenching maid next to her to greet her, and she doesn't need to come in person. When she did this, she seemed to like Xu Qirong very much.

A seven-year-old girl wearing a water-red folded lotus saro skirt with pearl beads on her head had sharp eyes and smiled first: "The fifth sister has arrived!" The girl stood beside Mrs. Guo, holding Mrs. Guo's arm, laughing, and winking at Xu Qirong.

Xu Qirong shuddered, and said in his heart, although it is already spring, but the north is not as cold as the south, and the weather is cold, at least in May and June, you can wear this saro skirt! Her three sisters are not afraid of the cold!

Xu Qirong thought that when he saw the Xu family again, he might not be able to tell who was who he was. Unexpectedly, with just one glance, he immediately recognized who was who. It seems that in the previous life, the more than ten years in the Xu family were not in vain.

It's just that why don't you have the impression of Yu Qiu and Liu's mother? A trace of doubt crossed Xu Qirong's heart.

I doubted in my heart, but I didn't show it on my face. With a smile, he threw himself at Mrs. Guo's side, shouting while pounced: "Uncle and grandmother, she wants to kill you!" ”

This flutter just "inadvertently" pushed away Xu Qiyun's hand holding Mrs. Guo, Xu Qiyun's face flashed a trace of surprise and displeasure, pursed his lips, and didn't say anything.

Among the girls in the Xu family, Mrs. Guo's favorite is the eldest lady Xu Qiyao. Xu Qiyun, the third lady of the big house, has always been good at competing for favors and winning, and her mouth is sweet, so in addition to Xu Qiyao, Mrs. Guo's favorite is Xu Qiyun's granddaughter.

Xu Qirong fell into the water with Yun Lan, the son of the Dongyang Hou Mansion, at the flower viewing banquet in his last life, ruining Yun Lan's reputation, and the Dongyang Hou Mansion had no choice but to marry Xu Qirong as the wife of the prince.

The daughters of the entire capital are both contemptuous and jealous of Xu Qirong, and such an unpopular method actually relies on a talented man with a glorious character, which is really hateful and annoying!

Everyone thought that this was Xu Qirong's own handiwork, where did he think of it, this was actually Xu Qiyun's credit. It's just that in his previous life, he was able to marry Yun Lan, Xu Qirong was also happy in his heart, and he thought that he might be able to help his father who was kicked out of the Xu family, so in his last life, Xu Qirong did not trouble Xu Qiyun because of this, but was very grateful to her in his heart.

Thinking about it later, I was puzzled, no one knew about the first set of Yunlan people, and everyone only said that he was a young talent, and he was the dream of many boudoir daughters. Xu Qiyun was seventeen years old at the time, and she hadn't said anything yet, why did she design that overboard?

Although Xu Tingyuan was kicked out by the Xu family, Mrs. Guo was "benevolent" and still kept Xu Qirong, who had a bad reputation, by her side. After that overboard, Xu Qirong's reputation was even worse, and it was impossible not to affect the relatives of the Xu family and other girls.

Since then, Xu Tingyuan has been even more reluctant to see this only daughter, and Xu Qirong found that Yun Lan looked completely different, and he couldn't be scumbag anymore, so he gradually hated Xu Qiyun in his heart. It's just that I was in Dongyang Hou's Mansion at that time, where would I have the opportunity to see Xu Qiyun again!

Therefore, as soon as they met today, Xu Qirong deliberately threw himself on Mrs. Guo.

In the past, Xu Qirong was more than respectful in front of Mrs. Guo, and it was rare to be close, this pounce, Mrs. Guo's body stiffened, and when Xu Qirong spoke softly about her thoughts, she reacted, and gently patted Xu Qirong's back with her hand, with a kind face.

Xu Qirong didn't look at Xu Qiyun, and said in his mouth: "This farewell for several months, Qirong wants to kill his uncle and grandmother, why didn't his uncle and grandmother send someone to call Qirong back?" In the Shen family, as soon as he received the letter from the Xu Mansion, Qi Rong packed up his things and waited. I didn't expect my uncle and grandmother to bring someone to wait for him here, and my uncle and grandmother also wanted to look like him, didn't she? ”

Mrs. Guo said in her heart, she is really a child, and she can't leave home. He smiled and said, "Everyone misses you!" Your third sister also left you a lantern during the Lantern Festival. ”

Seeing Mrs. Guo mention herself, the displeasure on Xu Qiyun's face disappeared suddenly, thinking in her heart that this was just because she had just come back!

Xu Qirong raised his head and said to Mrs. Guo: "I know that among all the sisters and sisters, my uncle and grandmother like her face the most!" ”

Mrs. Guo choked, met Xu Qirong's sparkling eyes, and had to ignore Xu Qiyun for the time being, and nodded.

Only then did Xu Qirong let go of Mrs. Guo and greeted her sisters and sisters in a proper manner. I feel very bored in my heart, even if I get two good words from Mrs. Guo? It's not interesting at all, I really don't understand why Xu Qiyun's heart to compete for favor and win is so strong.

Xu Qiyun was not very happy in her heart, so when Xu Qirong greeted her, she reacted very lightly.

Xu Qirong has been away for several months, and the clothes he wears are newly made in Yangzhou City, and the materials and styles are very different from those of the Xu family girl, and even the silk flowers on his head are not fashionable in the capital. It's just that it looks like it's all extravagant.

is different from the girls of the Xu family, and it is inevitable that there will be a little bit of a division between the sisters.

There were maids and women who knew the goods around, and while quietly looking at Xu Qirong, they said in their hearts, this Shen family is really rich!

Xu Qidie is the youngest, only four years old, and she is twins with her sister Xu Qimo, so she is still a little embarrassed in front of Mrs. Guo.

Noticing that the maids and mothers-in-law looked at Xu Qirong, they couldn't care about the feeling of being alive, and they didn't care that Xu Qirong had just arrived home and hadn't rested, Mrs. Guo was about to personally send Xu Qirong back to the Fenghua Courtyard where Xu Qirong lived when she heard Xu Qidie ask loudly: "Fifth sister, what about the gift you brought us?" ”

His face sank instantly, but he didn't open his mouth to stop it, but looked at Xu Qirong quietly.
