When Zhao Yuan brought Zhao Yan's letter to the second room again, Zhao Xiu and Zhang's family were meeting the mother-in-law sent by the Mi prefect's house in Hangzhou to deliver the letter.

Mi Zhifu and his wife learned that the ancestors and grandsons of the Zhang family were going back to Beijing, and there should be an accurate reply to the matter of their relatives first, so they sent someone to deliver the letter. Half of their succession has been resolved, and their daughter is ready to get married. Zhao Wei is no longer picky, the couple are very satisfied, and asked their daughter, and her daughter did not object. However, now that the time is too tight, Zhao Wei is in Beijing, and it is inconvenient to hold any engagement ceremony, so he sent Geng post over first.

It just so happened that Mi Province had made remarkable achievements in Hangzhou in the past two years, especially the dam case in the south of the Yangtze River, and there was a tidal disaster, which highlighted several outstanding officials, one of the prefects of Shanghai, and another prefect of Hangzhou of Mi Province, and the saints all had commendations, and also ordered them to return to Beijing at the end of the year to report on their work, and he wanted to summon them personally. This is a rare glory, Mi Xingzhi has set off at the end of autumn, and when the time comes, he will take his wife and daughter to Dejingzhong, and then officially engage with the Zhao family. Then the two families prepared their own weddings, and by the fall of next year, he would expire his term, and it was very likely that he would be promoted, and he would have to go back to Beijing again, and then it would be just right for his daughter to get married.

Zhang was very satisfied with the Mi family's reply, and she couldn't stop laughing at the thought of marrying her granddaughter-in-law next year. She also asked the mother-in-law who sent the letter with concern: "Has your old lady decided which young master to succeed?" At the beginning of the year, I haven't heard of a quasi-letter, this is Guangde's side finally relented? ”

The mother-in-law knew that the Mi and Zhao families were relatives, and the old lady of the Zhao family had always been good friends with her own wife, so she did not hide these secrets from her, so she replied with a smile: "It's not that the young master in the original house is relieved, it's that the master of the other room can't bear to see the brothers lose harmony for the fight, and he is worried that our master will have no heir, so he took the initiative to give up his son." This young master is also a descendant, only six years old this year, smart since childhood, and has already opened up. There are five brothers in the family, and he has always been the most favored. His mother was reluctant. I was kind to our wife again, and we cried a lot, and only said that we would raise it for another year, and then sent it to our wife. The old lady agreed. ”

Zhang was stunned. "That's wonderful," he laughed. Family harmony is the most important thing. ”

Zhao Xiu said in his heart, since he is a concubine, then there is no such thing as a mother-in-law rejecting a concubine, there are five brothers, and he is the youngest. In the future, when it comes to dividing the family property, I am afraid that I will not take advantage of it. The eldest grandson and youngest son are the lifeblood of the old man. For the sake of the future of this little son, it is not a loss to endure the pain of passing him on to his affectionate brother as an heir. Besides, the child's young age means that it is easy to adjust, and probably Mrs. Mi is more willing to raise a young and ignorant heir, right? The couple is still young, and they can watch their children grow up and go to school. Marry a wife and have children.

Speaking of this result, it is somewhat similar to the solution he mentioned when she and Gao Zhen occasionally chatted. But what does Gao Zhen have to do with the Mi family in Guangdezhou? It should just be a coincidence. She sighed secretly in her heart, in fact, she originally hoped that Mrs. Mi would have taken care of her body and that she could give birth to one.

Speaking of this, she asked the mother-in-law with concern: "Uncle's body has always been good?" The old illness is not repeated, is it? ”

The mother-in-law replied with a smile: "Madame is much better, her complexion is getting more and more ruddy, and she used to have some problems with being afraid of the wind, but now she is gone." I asked a doctor to check the pulse, and said that the old illness was half gone. As long as it is well maintained. In another two years, the roots will be removed. ”

Zhang recited the Buddha: "That's the best." After a while, you go down to eat first, and I'll pack up a few bottles of good medicine for you to bring back, all of which she can use to replenish her body. If you sue her for me, you must eat according to the amount on the bottle. Don't be sorry to finish eating. When she arrives in the capital, I will look for her again. That's the secret recipe pill made by Dr. Ye, and no one else can have it. Doctor Ye is now going to follow King Guangping back to Beijing, she can't invite people to see a doctor, if she is really in a hurry to ask for a doctor, I heard that there are two famous doctors in Suzhou, Zhou Yangjun and the prince. I have all instructed Dr. Ye in his medical skills, so you can ask your wife to give it a try. However, according to my idea, it is better to continue to take Dr. Ye's medicine. ”

The mother-in-law wrote them down one by one and took the order to retreat. At this time, Zhao Yuan came in to say goodbye.

Zhang had actually seen Zhao Yuan a long time ago, and was a little puzzled: "Why do you have time to come over today?" Yesterday's feast, your brothers were all drunk, so you don't have a headache? ”

Zhao Yuan said a little embarrassedly: "My nephew and great-grandson didn't get drunk yesterday, but I was afraid that they would be entangled again, so I pretended to be drunk, and I didn't have a headache." While talking, he secretly gave Zhao Xiu a look, and said something to ask the Zhang family to take care of his body and be happy on the road.

Zhang only thought that he was reluctant to say goodbye to himself again, and said movingly: "You are a good boy, but it's a pity that the heavens are not beautiful, and a tidal disaster has dragged your marriage back again." I heard that the girl of the Tao family had arrived at the county office, so she waited to pass the door. Your great-uncle and grandmother are leaving, and I can't eat your wedding wine, so I can only congratulate you first. If you marry a wife, you will be an adult, and you will live a good life with your daughter-in-law in the future, and you will be harmonious and beautiful, but you are not allowed to be naughty! ”

Zhao Yuan respectfully responded. Zhang's family also felt that he was the first of his great-grandchildren, so he specially ordered someone to take a box of gold-headed noodles from his private room, as well as an ancient inkstone from the Song Dynasty to give him: "This is for you and your daughter-in-law, you take it first, and when your daughter-in-law passes the door, you will hand it over to her." Don't tell anyone to go, if others say I'm biased, they come to me, and I don't have it anymore. ”

Zhao Yuan blushed and bowed his head to take the thing, and kowtowed to Zhang's in thanks. Zhang was in a good mood, and helped the girl back to the house, and Zhao Xiu took the opportunity to call Zhao Yuan to go to the study to talk.

Zhao Yuan took out Zhao Yan's letter from his sleeve and handed it to her: "This is Brother Yan's letter." I haven't seen it, and I don't know what he did when he came to ask me to send this letter. But seeing that he is much more decently cleaned up now, he has said a lot of words of gratitude. His biological mother and younger brother have already seen the doctor, are taking medicine, and their condition is much better. In front of me, he kowtowed three times to the second-room room, but he didn't mention that he wanted to enter the house and kowtow. ”

didn't mention kowtowing to the old house, but he was sensible. Zhao Xiuyuan didn't expect Zhao Yan to be grateful to him, but when he heard that he expressed himself like this, he was still in a very happy mood. She opened the densely sealed letter, glanced at it hastily, her face changed slightly, and she immediately sat up straight.

Seeing this, Zhao Yuan hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with my aunt?" But what did he say in his letter that he didn't like? ”

Zhao Xiu shook his head slowly, and suddenly smiled: "He really has an idea." I really didn't think he could do such a thing. ”

Zhao Yuan was puzzled, and Zhao Xiu didn't say much to him, but said: "Our aunt and nephew have already done this, so there is no need to alarm the elders anymore." If Zhao Yan is sensible, he will live honestly with his biological mother and siblings in the future. I borrowed a house for them to live in, and as long as they didn't make a mistake, they wouldn't take it back. You ask from time to time, if he is fine, don't care about him, he has the ability to support the family. But if you find out that he has done something that he shouldn't do, remember to stop him, lest he pit himself to a dead end, and in order to survive, he shouts that he is a descendant of the Zhao family, which ruins the reputation that our family has earned so hard. ”

The Zhao family now has a good reputation in Shanghai, and the whole family is a little more reserved. Zhao Yuan is the grandson of the sect, so naturally he didn't dare to ignore it, so he hurriedly agreed, and was a little uneasy: "How could my aunt suddenly say this?" But what did he say in the letter? ”

Zhao Xiu smiled and shook his head: "It's nothing, I just saw that he could bend and stretch, and he was also a character, so I gave one more advice, just in case." ”

Zhao Yuanxin thought it was true, so he didn't ask any more.

When Zhao Xiu returned to the room, he took out the letter and read it carefully, and then he was funny again.

No wonder she heard that Zhao Xiang arrived in Jining with the Niu family, and when she saw that the Jiang family refused to take in the Niu family, and met Zhao Yan's mother and son, she pushed the Niu family to them and went to her grandfather's house by herself, but now Zhao Yan is in trouble, but she has never heard anyone mention the Niu family. It turned out that soon after he reunited with Niu, he was tired of her face. The family went out, no one knew their origins, he was vicious, and took his biological mother and siblings to carry Niu's boat off the six-room boat, find another boat, change the dock, and go ashore again. This time, no one really knew where their whereabouts came from, so he casually found a corner of the Niu family, and quickly got on another boat with his biological mother and siblings, and continued south.

Niu was not by their side because he had long been abandoned on the way south. She is a lonely old woman, she has no money and no things, and she has difficulty moving, what good results can she have? But she's a big one. Zhao Yan made a living in Nanhui, and once heard a merchant from the north say that there was an old woman surnamed Niu begging on the shore of a wharf in a certain place, and everyone said that she was crazy, so she would shout everywhere that she was the wife of the county mansion, how noble she was, and he knew that it was his grandmother who had abandoned.

Niu's ending up like this, Zhao Xiu naturally felt happy in his heart. However, while being happy, I can't help but feel that Zhao Yan is really not a good person. Although the Niu family is not good to Aunt Xiaoqian's grandmother, and after being down, he also has a lot of embarrassment for their brothers and sisters, but he is also his own grandmother and once hurt them. It's not easy for him to be able to do this. He and Zhao Xiang are really worthy of being brothers and sisters born of the same father, and both of them are ruthless enough.

Zhao Xiu was a little wary of Zhao Yan, but she didn't think that he could still cause any danger to the current Zhao family and the Jiannan Hou Mansion, in addition to reminding Zhao Yuan, she also found someone to keep an eye on Zhao Yan. Liu Lu's parents and brothers will accompany them to Beijing this time, but her aunt and uncle are still on an errand in the old mansion, so they just sent her uncle to do this errand.

After Zhao Xiu and Zhang's finished taking care of many affairs, Gao Zhen sent a letter from Jiading to urge them to leave. For a while, Zhao Kun's ancestors and grandsons in the third room, as well as Zhao You and others who accompanied him, all packed their luggage, and the He clan set out, crowding the road so much that they were sent all the way out of Fengxian County, got on the boat at the dock, and headed to Jiading together.
