Chapter Thirty-Six: Returning Home

"Xuan Shijing." Xuan Shijing stood outside the door, spit out three words in his mouth, standing in front of the door of this Hou Mansion, he was a little overwhelmed, has he not been home for more than ten years, it turned out to be this feeling, familiar, unfamiliar, or timid.

As soon as the people inside the door heard the three words "Xuan Shijing", they suddenly had a wit in their hearts, isn't this the name of their own little marquis? His own little marquis is in West Kunlun.

As soon as he thought of someone pretending to be his little marquis, Lao Liu's heart suddenly became angry.

"What are you talking about, my Hou Ye is in West Kunlun at the moment, and you pretended to be the little Hou Ye and came to the Hou Mansion."

Gao Jun and Long'er, who were standing on the side of the carriage, glanced at each other, and both found each other's serious helpless smiles, Gao Jun stepped forward, walked to Xuan Shijing's side, and said to the people inside the door: "Uncle Liu, you don't remember his voice when you grow up, you won't forget it even me." ”

Uncle Liu, who was behind the gate, was stunned when he heard this voice, and then said, "Gao Jun boy? ”

"Yes, boy Gaojun." Long'er also stepped forward with a smile and said to the door: "Uncle Liu, it's really that we are back, hurry up and open the door, you can't let us enter through the side door." ”

"Little Hou Ye, it's really Xiao Hou Ye!" Uncle Liu's voice sounded a little excited, and he shouted towards the mansion: "The little marquis is back!" The little marquis is back! ”

Xuan Shijing has a black line, don't just shout, but open the door.

Zhong Zishuo was wiping his big knife in the yard, heard a noise outside, frowned, stood up, walked outside with a knife, and walked out of the yard, Zhong Zishuo looked at the servants outside coldly, and asked loudly: "What's so noisy." ”

"Steward Zhong, the little marquis is back, Uncle Liu heard Gao Jun and Long'er's voices at the door, and one of them claimed to be the little marquis." A servant said.

Zhong Zishuo's heart sank, the little marquis is back? Say it's the end of the year, how can it be so fast!

"Go and inform Madame, and also, hurry to the gate to greet you!" Zhong Zishuo commanded.

"Yes." The servant answered, and ran to the king's courtyard.

Xuan Shijing stood in front of the mansion in a daze, what do you mean? Still not open? Blocked at your doorstep? What is the reaction? Stunned, he turned his head to look at Gao Jun and Long'er, and his serious doubts were clearly visible.

No, it stands to reason that when you come back, you shouldn't be greeted by the family, even if you don't greet you, you should open the door.

Standing at the gate of the mansion for a long time, the door of the Hou Mansion finally opened slowly, the door that had not been opened for more than ten years, the door shaft made a creaking sound between the rotation, listening to the eardrum that tested people, Xuan Shijing looked up at the house, but was startled by the scene in front of him, the maids and servants in the house stood in a row on the left and the right, bowed, and when the door was completely opened, they all said together: "Welcome the Hou Ye back to the house." ”

Drink, such a big battle, Xuan Shijing was stunned, Wang was carrying Zhong Zishuo through the middle of the crowd and walking in front of Xuan Shijing.

I saw that Wang was dressed in a brown brocade robe, and his long hair was combed into a very ordinary woman's bun, which was pulled up by a jasper hairpin, and between the sideburns, there was faintly visible gorgeous hair

Obviously, ten years ago, my mother was still a green silk, and my mother was only thirty-four or five years old now

The moment he saw Wang, Xuan Shijing's nose was a little pantothenic, and his eyes were hot, as if something was about to come out of his eyes and roll down.

Wang walked up to Xuan Shijing, gently stroked Xuan Shijing's cheek with a trembling hand, trembling lips, unable to speak.

"Mother, the child is back." As soon as he spoke, his voice trembled unconsciously, and there was a deep longing in his words.

"Jing'er, my son" Wang's tears were already like beads with broken threads, one by one, bursting out of his eyes.

Xuan Shijing sniffed and spoke again, already in a thick nasal voice: "Mother." ”

More than ten years ago, Xuan Shijing was still a child when he left the Hou Mansion, and now he has come back and become a young man, standing there, his height faintly higher than the Wang family.

Wang stepped forward and hugged Xuan Shijing: "My son, I'm finally back." In the blink of an eye, I couldn't cry, it was hard to think about how the Wang family had survived all these years, lost her husband and left her son, as if she was the only one left in the world, quietly, with the ancestral hall of the Hou Mansion as a companion.

Zhong Zishuo stood behind Wang, watching the two reunite after a long absence, and he also felt a lot of emotion in his heart, but seeing more and more people stopping outside the Hou Mansion, he frowned slightly, and said: "Hou Ye, madam, let's go into the mansion and talk again." ”

Wang let go of Xuan Shijing, took out the handkerchief in his sleeve to wipe the tears on his face, and said to Xuan Shijing: "Yes, Jing'er, let's go home." As he spoke, he took Xuan Shijing's hand and walked towards the mansion together.

Zhong Zishuo stayed where he was and looked at Shi Hu outside the door, and said, "Shi Hu, go and drive the carriage to the backyard of the Hou Mansion." ”

Shi Hu nodded, he had been to the Hou Mansion, so he was quite familiar.

looked back at Gao Jun and Long'er, and said with emotion: "You have also grown up." ”

Zhong Zishuo looked at the tall and tall, mature Long'er, yes, in a blink of an eye, it has been more than ten years, these ten years, how did the Hou Mansion come here, I faintly don't remember.

"Uncle Zhong" Long'er also had red eyes when she saw Zhong Zishuo, and then her eyes were hazy with tears.

Zhong Zishuo is half a father for Long'er and Gao Jun, Gao Jun is better, he has an older brother, and Long'er, before entering Erxianzhuang, was really lonely and helpless, Zhong Zishuo treats her differently, maybe she is smart, innocent and cute compared to other children, so Zhong Zishuo has always served her like her own daughter.

And Long'er's name was also given by him, Zhong Linglong

Xuan Shijing returned to the house, which was a great joy for the Hou Mansion, and that night, the Wang family ordered to go down and have a feast, and the master and servant enjoyed together.

The servants of the Hou Mansion seem to have become accustomed to this pattern, because every year on the first night of the New Year, the lady always orders the people in the mansion to go out to buy some things, let the kitchen clean up and make delicious food, and everyone will sit together in a very comfortable room, reminiscing about this year, only on this day, the Hou Mansion will be a little angry, and this house is the meeting room used by Xuan Shijing to hold a night banquet in the Chinese New Year's Eve

This is also a kind of longing for Wang's son, sitting here every New Year's Eve, he can always think of that night, his Jing'er was napping on the side, and his face unconsciously showed a smile, what a warm picture he once had, but when he came to his senses, his surroundings were empty.

The atmosphere of the New Year's Eve is strong every year, but Wang's thoughts have always stayed on the night of the first night banquet, because that night can be regarded as a real reunion for the Hou Mansion.

As soon as Xuan Shijing returned home, the news that he had returned to Chang'an spread
