Chapter 214: Returning Home
Shujie has been by the emperor's side for more than a month, calm but not dull, sensitive and studious, which makes the emperor value him more and more.
Shujie's temperament is very similar to Xia Linxuan, introverted and steady, and in recent years, he has been influenced by Jin Xida and the teaching of Liu's mother, and his political sensitivity is higher, and his actions and thinking are more flexible.
Because of the nourishment of the aura of the mahogany box, the five senses of the three Shujie brothers and sisters are already several times more sensitive than ordinary people, which also makes Deshujie give full play to what Jin Xida and Liu's mother teach, and in a short period of time, he has become the youngest left and right hand around the emperor.
No, today is the last day before Shujie returns to his hometown, and when the early dynasty is about to end, the emperor actually joked in front of the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs of the Manchu Dynasty: "Shujie, the former writer and guard, has been gone for a month, I'm afraid I won't get used to it, hahaha, Shujie, you have to return to Beijing as soon as possible." ”
The following courtiers were shocked, the emperor has always called Shujie's name, just like his own sons and nephews, instead of being commonly known as "Aiqing", or "Xia Guard", "Xia Zhibi", which has made everyone envious and jealous, and now he has expressed his reliance on this young man in public, how can it not be shocking? It's a pity that Shujie's literary style and martial arts are not comparable to his own children, so he can only secretly sigh that his children and grandchildren are not angry.
What they don't know is that when they sigh like this, their sons and nephews are complaining that they don't have a father-in-law or father who is trusted by the emperor like Jin Xida, so that the emperor can love the house and Wudiqi to respect themselves.
For a while, some people envied Shujie for having such a father-in-law as Jin Xida, and some people were jealous that Jin Xida had such an excellent son as Shujie......
Those who went to Yulin with the three Shujie brothers and sisters, in addition to the ceremonial officials appointed by the emperor, there were also Mama Liu and Father-in-law Shunzi, who went to worship Donnie Yen on behalf of the Queen Mother again. As a result, the team has expanded. There were more than 20 palace guards, as well as palace maids and little eunuchs.
The people in the summer house. Shujie only brought the three brothers and sisters who were waiting for them, Liu's mother, Yan's mother, and a few nursing homes. Xiu Tao and Tian En also followed back to Yulin to "visit relatives".
The affairs of the house, Zhuangzi, shop, and tofu workshop in the capital were handed over to the big housekeeper Uncle Kui, and if there was any problem, he would go to the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion to ask the Hou Ye.
This trip was much faster than the last time I entered Beijing, and in less than seven days, the group arrived in Yulin Town.
The people who were waiting at the intersection hurriedly rushed back to report, and soon, Yang County Ling brought his colleagues from the surrounding prefectures and counties, and the head of the Xia family with the clan elders to meet him.
The neighbors of Xitang Street and Shujie's outsider, the Zhao family, also rushed to hear the news one after another. plus the people who came to see the excitement and wanted to see the first double champion style of the big week. In front of the summer house, it is festive and jubilant.
As soon as Shujie got off the horse, he first saluted the prefects, county magistrates and other local officials, and introduced them to the officials of the Ministry of Rites, Father-in-law Shunzi, and Mama Liu.
Although Shujie is only a low-level official of the sixth grade, he is an official position of "Imperial Front", especially the guard with a knife in front of the Emperor. Not only was the seven-rank county commander like Yang Yishan respectful and respectful, but one of the fourth-rank military attachés and two fifth-grade prefects in the same greeting team did not dare to hold it up at all.
Who in office dares not to closely "connect" the news of Jingli? What's more, they are not too far from the capital. Now that Shujie is a "celebrity" around the emperor, it has long been known in Beijing, and there is no need to bother to inquire at all.
Yang Yishan's "enthusiastic" smile is indescribable regret and bitterness, why did he ...... in the first place? But the three brothers and sisters of Shujie are all clever and clever, and they seem to have seen through everything a long time ago. It's even more difficult to fool than Xia Linxuan. They have always been "respectful" of him, just respect. It's just polite, revealing obvious detachment, far from the "intimacy" he wants.
But the three Shujie are no longer orphans and orphans who are slaughtered by others, not to mention the backers of Jin Xida and Weiyuanhou, he himself is now a promising son of heaven, and his fiancée is still the eldest daughter of the wealthy Nangong family.
Yang Yishan even had a feeling that it was good that the three Shujie brothers and sisters could maintain a superficial relationship with him like they are now, and not secretly interfere.
Alas, there is no regret medicine sold in the world, who would have thought that the three Shujie brothers and sisters could have today's scenery in such a situation back then? Back then, after Xia Linxuan's death, first, he felt that the Xia family had no place to use, and secondly, he was worried that the orphans and widows would rely on him, "Xia Linxuan's sworn brother", so he deliberately distanced himself. Later, the Murong family came to the door, and he was even more alienated from the Xia Mansion, not only wanting to cling to the Murong Mansion, but also afraid of being dragged down by the "just in case", the best way to avoid suspicion is to stay away from the things planned by the Murong Mansion.
It wasn't until Murong Mansion was defeated and changed to want to find the "Qingyue Bow", that he was instructed to cooperate with Xia Mansion to start from the three brothers and sisters, so he thought about standing up in front of Shujie and beating him (that is, the time when Xia Mansion asked for a secret recipe), but he didn't expect to be hit by Jin Xida just after saying a word.
Looking back on the past, Yang Yishan blamed Murong Mansion for his original mistakes and current frustration. Of course, it's just a strange thing in his heart, the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and although Murong Fu and Concubine Li are losing power now, they are not something that he can despise as a seven-grade sesame official.
After meeting with his fellow officials, Shujie took a pair of younger siblings to meet the patriarch and the clan elders.
The folds on the patriarch's face were as brilliant as an old chrysanthemum in full bloom: "Brother Jie, good look, really a good son of our Xia family!" Although there are few people in your group, a few members of your family are the pride of our clan. ”
Isn't? Xia Linxuan has been going all the way smoothly since he signed a deed with Xia Zhihan to open another one, and it didn't take long for him to become the "No. 1 catcher in the world", and Zhen was the hero of the medicinal diet recipe for the Queen Mother, and then these three brothers and sisters collected spirit beasts and accompanied the backers...... Along the way, what is not a miracle or a great blessing that ordinary people can't do? Now Shujie is soaring to the sky, and his reputation is resounding throughout the Great Zhou.
When Xia Linyu's brothers rushed over with Xia Shuyi, Xia Shuqing, and Xia Shuwei, they happened to hear the patriarch's words, and then saw the eyes of Mama Liu and Father-in-law Shunzi looking at them with contempt, and they subconsciously hid back.
Xia Ruoxue didn't come over, and persuaded Xia Linyu's brothers not to come, just let Shuqing, who had a better relationship with Shu Yao and the three of them, be close to it. Helplessly, Xia Linyu and the others were unwilling, and they were itching.
But at this time, they regretted it, and some things have long become a fact known to the world. There is no room for them to be willing or unwilling.
Shuqing looked at Shujie in a big red robe. With a proud smile on his face, he gradually saw the book of the young man's elegant demeanor. There was also Shu Yao, who was wearing a cherry red brocade skirt and a hat, and her heart was really sour, and she suddenly thought that she had rushed over and forgot to bring her hat...... However, in this Yulin Town, there are few people with hats after all, and she doesn't care so much about them on weekdays.
Expecting that there would be many people to greet and watch today, before getting off the carriage, Mother Liu deliberately took out a half-cut hat for Shu Yao to put on.
Shu Yao was only ten years old. Yulin Town does not have such strict rules as the capital, and wearing a hat with a long cloud veil will be a little repulsive (Mother Liu saw some drawbacks of strict observance from everyone misunderstanding Nangong Miao's "not eating fireworks in the world" and not knowing how to take care of mundane affairs), Mother Liu simply cut off a large section of the cloud yarn on the hat, and cut the bottom out of the wavy edge. The cloud gauze only covers most of the face, and the cute little chin can be faintly seen, which not only does not show up, but also highlights the delicate and playful of this age.
Xia Linyu saw Shu Qing looking at Shu Yao in a daze, and patted her gently: "Qing'er, you go over to say hello to them." As long as Shu Yao and the three of them are friendly and friendly to Shu Qing, they will be embarrassed to go in together. This is the time to retreat. It's even more shameless!
Shuqing shook her head and didn't speak. She felt that if she walked over like this, she stood beside Shu Yao. It's really ugly, or it's a big fool in front of so many people, she doesn't do it.
Seeing that Shuqing was "disobedient", Xia Linyu got angry: "What's wrong with you?" Didn't you come on your own? "This daughter has always been sensible and clever, what's wrong?
Shuqing blinked aggrievedly and said softly, "Dad, I didn't bring a hat." ”
Xia Linyu was stunned for a moment, just wanted to say something, glanced at the beautiful and cute hat on Shu Yao's head, thought about it again, shut up, and said after a while: "Then you go back first." ”
Shuqing is four years older than Shu Yao, and she will be in time next year......
It's nothing if you don't wear a hat on weekdays, but now standing next to ten-year-old Shu Yao, isn't it completely compared? Nowadays, many people like to belittle Xia Mansion the most, and if they find something wrong, they don't depreciate it to death?
Xia Linyu is trying to find a way to return the Guo family's family affairs to Shuqing, and then find a wealthy businessman. His Qing'er is better than Shuwan in every aspect, how can you say that the dowry must be three or four times that of Shuwan's dowry, isn't it? He couldn't ruin Shuqing's reputation at this time.
Shuqing didn't care about what Xia Linyu was thinking, and when she heard the "pardon", she quickly nodded and walked towards her carriage with her personal maid Ade.
When Shu Qing looked at it just now, Shu Yao happened to notice that the interaction between the two fathers and daughters could not escape her eyes later. Although she was too far away to hear what they were saying, Shu Yao could still guess from the changes in their faces. She guessed that Xia Linyu wanted Shuqing to come over and get close to the three of them to express the sincerity of the "family", but Shuqing was reluctant to come over and left.
However, Shu Yao's strange thing is that Shu Qing hasn't been showing favor to them all the time? Why don't you want to come over today? Embarrassed by what her grandmother, parents, and aunt did?
Shu Yao smiled secretly, and shook his head to himself in his heart, whatever, the soldiers are coming, the water is coming to cover the earth, and the days of the good are not worth hurting for those shameless people in the Xia Mansion.
After saluting the clan elders, the three Shujie brothers and sisters walked to the Xitang Street neighborhood that was standing behind them. The neighbors didn't seem to expect Shujie and the three of them to come over, and they were a little at a loss, and there was a little more panic on the smile on the smile that was really happy for the three siblings just now. It's not wrong that these three children grew up watching them, but now their identities are very different. (To be continued......)
