Chapter 812: Returning Home
After coming out of the palace, it stands to reason that Chen Xiaoting should go to the yamen first, but in the end he decided to go home directly.
Since he decided to keep a low profile, there was no need to even go to the yamen.
Chen Xiaoting also has that self-confidence, even if he doesn't go to the yamen this time, he can ensure that he will not lose his authority.
Just like the current emperor, if he doesn't go to court for a long time, he can also manipulate the universe.
After Chen Xiaoting got into the carriage, he ordered the captain who drove the carriage to send him home directly, in fact, he was thinking about his family at the moment.
The carriage traveled slowly and finally stopped outside Chen's mansion, Chen Xiaoting in the carriage was full of anticipation, while Liang Jiahui on his side was apprehensive.
It was only when Chen Xiaoting held her hand as a sign of reassurance that she felt a little more at ease.
The carriage stopped, Chen Xiaoting got out of the carriage directly, and the servants guarding the gate confirmed that it was the head of the house who came back, and immediately someone entered the mansion to report.
At this moment, Liang Jiahui also got out of the carriage, looked up at the Chen Mansion in front of her, which would be where she would live for the rest of her life.
After Liang Jiahui got out of the carriage, Chen Xiaoting had already come to the bottom of the steps outside the mansion, and at this moment he had seen the children running out of the mansion and Shen Yi following behind.
Whenever the time comes, the return of the husband is the most important thing for the three women.
Chen Xiaoting smiled, then walked up the steps, and just hugged Chen Juan who had crossed the threshold.
"Dad, you're back!"
Hearing his daughter's words, half of Chen Xiaoting's heart was about to melt, and he took his daughter's hand and asked, "Does Juan Juan miss his father?" ”
Chen Juan is now more than four years old, and she is raised in a high-ranking family like the Chen family, even if she is a concubine, she has a sense of nobility and agility.
After Chen Juan approached Chen Xiaoting's ear with one hand, he whispered: "Daddy, eldest brother, he broke my Trojan horse yesterday, Juan Juan is wronged!" ”
Originally, Chen Xiaoting was in a good mood, but after hearing his daughter's words, he suddenly looked at the eldest son who was standing on the side with a dark face.
Now Chen Ruiling is more than six years old, although he didn't hear what his sister said, but he knew that something was wrong at a glance from his father.
This has to be saved quickly, so Chen Ruiling stepped forward and said: "Father, the child has already practiced the boxing techniques you taught me, and my mother praised me yesterday!" ”
Bastard thinks he can be forgiven in this way? Just as Chen Xiaoting was about to interrogate Chen Ruiling, he heard Shen Yi's voice from inside the gate: "The concubine welcomes her husband's triumphant return to the house!" ”
Chen Xiaoting turned his head to look and saw that Shen Yi took Xu Youhui and Zheng Xuan'er with Xu Youhui and Zheng Xuan'er in the gate, and gave him a squatting blessing gift.
"Madame doesn't have to be polite, she has been away from home for a few months, and her husband has been thinking about you!" Chen Xiaoting moved forward.
Then, at this interval, Shen Yi and the three of them saw Liang Jiahui under the steps, and they suddenly had a bad guess in their hearts.
At this time, Chen Ruiling said: "Father, is that my fourth aunt?" ”
Originally, Chen Xiaoting didn't know what to say, but after Chen Ruiling said it bluntly, he turned around directly, pointed at Liang Jiahui and introduced: "This is ...... The sisters I brought back from Jiangnan for you, you will be so close in the future! ”
Chen Xiaoting said these words cheekily, but there was no response, and Shen Yi and the three of them were very quiet.
Liang Jiahui also came from the bottom of the steps at this moment, and after she came to the front of the women, she saluted Shen Yi and the three of them: "Sister meets the three sisters!" ”
Chen Xiaoting's eyes swept over Shen Yi and the others, just waiting for them to get to know each other quickly and end this embarrassing moment as soon as possible.
Shen Yi didn't speak, her eyes kept staring at Liang Jiahui, and Zheng Xuan'er also looked up and down in front of her curiously.
I only heard Xu Youhui speak: "It seems that we can't let the master go out casually, otherwise if I bring back so many times, we won't be able to live in this house!" ”
Although it was a joke, Liang Jiahui's face changed slightly, and she also faintly had an opinion on Xu Youhui in her heart.
Fortunately, Shen Yi said at this time: "Don't say a word, if you make your husband unhappy, you won't have any good fruit to eat!" ”
"Husband, since people have already known each other, let's go into the house!"
It's still a big wife...... Chen Xiaoting sighed in his heart.
Then he took his two sons and daughters into the mansion, and the women followed him.
Shen Yi naturally went to the front, and Xu Youhui and the three of them were one step behind her, which just reflected Shen Yi's status as the main mother.
"Since you have entered this house, you will be a family in the future, so you must get along in harmony, understand?"
Shen Yi walked as he walked, although he said this to Liang Jiahui, Chen Xiaoting, who was walking in front, could also hear it.
"Yes, ma'am!" Liang Jiahui replied respectfully.
The momentum of Shen Yi's words made Liang Jiahui unable to have other thoughts at all, and at this time she only hoped to spend her life in this mansion peacefully.
When she was about to enter the main hall, Shen Yi arranged a place for Liang Jiahui to live, and then asked Xu Youhui and Zheng Xuan'er to take the latter over.
She is the head of the house, and Xu Youhui and the three of them naturally will not disobey Shen Yi's wishes, so they go to the backyard together.
After the three left, Shen Yi followed her husband into the house, and Chen Xiaoting walked directly to the bedroom.
He is now wearing official clothes, so he naturally has to change into casual clothes at home, which is also an opportunity to communicate with his wife.
When Shen Yi also stepped into the bedroom, Chen Xiaoting was already looking for clothes outside the wardrobe, and finally he dragged out a blue brocade robe.
The child had already been put down by Chen Xiaoting, so after Shen Yi came in, Chen Xiaoting said to himself: "I have been to Jiangnan for so long this time, it is difficult for you to support yourself at home alone!" ”
I have to say that Shen Yi has a certain amount of resentment towards Chen Xiaoting, so she asked: "As far as the concubine knows, the husband is not a womanizer, why did he bring someone back from Jiangnan this time!" ”
"Could it be that the husband thinks that the concubine is old and decrepit, and is ready to replace the old with the new!"
This is serious, Chen Xiaoting hurriedly said: "Madam, where is this, this daughter is a gift from the Jiangnan wealthy family, and if the husband wants to run an errand for the emperor, he has to have a good relationship with the Jiangnan wealthy family, so ...... This is a last resort! ”
Although the words are high-sounding, the truth is not the case at all, in fact, it is just gluttony.
Anyway, her husband's willingness to explain to him made Shen Yi feel a lot better.
So she came to her husband as usual, and then helped Chen Xiaoting tidy up her clothes, which made Chen Xiaoting feel a lot more at ease.
After dressing, Chen Xiaoting and Shen Yi walked slowly outside the bedroom.
The two walked all the way under the eaves, Shen Yi asked about Jiangnan, and Chen Xiaoting also asked about family affairs from time to time.
Occasionally, seeing two children chasing happily made Chen Xiaoting a little happier, this is what life should be.
"Let's go, let's go see Chanchan and Ruiyun!" Chen Xiaoting proposed.
The third and fourth, he hadn't seen them for a long time.
Before Shen Yi could express his position, he saw the housekeeper walking quickly and said, "Master, there are several thousand households in the south and north cities, and some hundred households want to see you!" ”
I didn't go to the yamen, but these people took the initiative to find them, so many things can't be avoided by hiding.
Of course, this also shows Chen Xiaoting's authority in the yamen, otherwise his subordinates would not have come to visit him like this.
"Let them wait in the antechamber!" Chen Xiaoting commanded casually.
After the housekeeper left, Chen Xiaoting sighed to Shen Yi: "Madam, I can't rest if I want to!" ”
"Since the husband wants to rest, then send these people away quickly, and you can't leave them for lunch!" Shen Yi said disapprovingly.
Chen Xiaoting couldn't help but be stunned, then laughed out loud, and then left to walk to the front hall.
This time he decided to listen to his wife, and he had to send these people away quickly.
