The wharf in the northwest of Jinling City has always been the busiest place in this imperial capital, and there is no one.

First, countless goods from the southeast and northwest need to be transported here by water, and secondly, they ...... It is that the officials and people who came down from the north must all cross the river and then land on the shore. Even if freight and passenger transportation are divided into east and west, once they are busy, they will still not stop. It's just that it is now the twenty-eighth day of the lunar month, and the New Year is approaching, and the flow of people on this pier is finally much less.

It is precisely because there are fewer people that the group of people who are waiting to pick up the ship at this time is particularly eye-catching.

At this time, a few coolies who were still working on the dock looked at a freshly dressed angry horse standing in front of them from a distance, looking forward to the young man who was flying, and thought of a few people on the dock who were shouting and drinking on weekdays before and stepped forward to ask each other's origins, and immediately groveled and stammered, some people were envious, some people were jealous, and some people couldn't help but curse in a low voice.

"What's the spirit, if it weren't for the fate of meeting a nobleman, I would have starved to death on the street a long time ago, where did I come from this scenery now!"

However, before the scolding could be spoken, the thin middle-aged coolie saw the other people around him avoid him as if they were snakes and scorpions, and immediately after, he saw that the young man he was cursing turned his head sideways as if he had a sense of it, and actually glanced at him with a smile. Realizing that what he had just said had been heard, he shuddered.

But he couldn't hide alone, he couldn't hide, he finally simply turned his heart sideways and simply held his head high. No matter how hard your background is, you can't just mutter something behind my back, and you will kill me, right?

"The boat is coming, the ninth prince, a ship is coming!"

Of course, Yue Qianqiu caught the words just now, but when he heard the shouting of the tiger head in his ears, he didn't bother to pay attention to the outsider who was so envious and jealous that he cursed him, and immediately retracted his gaze and looked into the distance on the river. When he saw the big boat, which was completely different in size and shape from ordinary ferries, he counted the hours, and knew in his heart that the people he was waiting for were nine times out of ten on this boat.

At this moment, the third master Yue beside him coughed vigorously, and then said earnestly: "Qianqiu, although your father married without telling him, since the old lady has admitted this daughter-in-law, even if you are unhappy, don't be distracted when you see people, and look left and right on Nuo Nuo's face." Haven't you always been nice to this sister? Love House & ......"

After Aiwu and Wu's words, Yue Qianqiu was too lazy to listen. As for why the third master suddenly changed his painting style, he became a reasonable and reasonable person, and persuaded himself to get along with his nominal adoptive mother, he was too lazy to guess, but he couldn't get rid of that little abacus when he thought about it, so he just symbolically said a few words.

And as soon as he saw his attitude, Master Yue San knew that the most favored boy in the third generation of the family didn't take it to heart at all. If it were the same as before, he would definitely sink his face when he was angry in his heart, but now he barely maintained that smiling face, but secretly he had to scold the kid who didn't know how to lift.

You used to rely on the favor of the old man to run rampant, and now your mother who can control you is back, as long as your father comes back, and the two of you have other sons, I see how you can sit still when you turn around, and see how you pretend to love your sister's brother in front of the old man!

Thinking that his children were all like mice and cats in front of the old man, the third master of Yue couldn't help but feel jealous, and then thinking about the fact that the eldest brother was coming back at this time, he couldn't help but think about how to discuss with this always rigid boss, and strive to suppress the momentum of Yue Qianqiu's inevitability in the Yue family through the four brothers and sisters brought back by the eldest brother.

The uncle and nephew each had their own thoughts, and the others who came out saw that the boat was getting closer and closer, and the flag on the bow of the ship could already see the Yue character logo, and a few families were happy and a few were sad.

The fourth master ran away from home for more than ten years, and at the end of last year, he inexplicably sent a daughter back, but this time he was intercepted by the eldest master, and even his daughter-in-law was left behind and ran away. At that time, there was only one single seedling in Yue Qianqiu, and then there was a little Miss Nuo's four rooms, which was going to be lively!

As the big ship gradually approached the dock, the second master of Yue took the lead and led the others to meet him. However, when he saw the familiar figure of the eldest brother appear on the bow of the ship, before he could speak, he saw a man beside him suddenly pass him, and then leaped into the sky, and landed firmly on the bow of the boat after a somersault.

"Uncle is well." Yue Qianqiu smiled and saluted Lord Yue, although he wanted to ask you what you were doing in Beiyan before, but in the end what came out was another nonsense, "You haven't returned for a long time, grandpa is thinking about it day and night, and he is about to get sick, and the eldest aunt and Chang'an also miss you very much." ”

Today, Yue Xiuyi is also in this line, in order to welcome his grandfather's return, but seeing the strange atmosphere between the third uncle and Yue Qianqiu, he hid behind, and at this time, seeing that Yue Qianqiu actually ran directly to the bow of the boat, and robbed his own words, he couldn't help but be angry and funny, but he couldn't interject indiscriminately, so as not to lead the third uncle's anger to himself.

As a last resort, he could only make a big bow respectfully when the old man Yue lowered his head and looked down: "Grandfather is fine." ”

Master Yue heard this greeting, nodded slightly, then glanced at the cabin, and said in a deep voice: "Qianqiu, why didn't Nuo Nuo come?" Your mother has been caught a little wind on the way, and in the cabin, you can go and see her. ”

"Nuno was originally noisy and shouting to come, but the weather was too cold, and her grandfather and aunt persuaded her." Yue Qianqiu said this, and his eyes also glanced at the cabin, but he didn't move his steps. After all, in the eyes of outsiders, he and the adoptive mother who had just returned to Jinling had never met, and the two had nothing to do with each other, even if he loved Wu and Wu because of Nuonuo, he couldn't get too close.

At this moment, the eldest master moved. He directly reached out and pressed on his nephew's shoulder, and shouted undoubtedly: "What are you still doing in a daze, I have said everything, tell you to go see your mother, and then carry her out!" ”

Everyone under the boat, including Yue Er and Yue Xiuyi, saw it clearly, and Yue Qianqiu instantly made a bitter face. Despite this, this Yue Jiu Gongzi still hesitated, and after a while, he finally got into the cabin.

It's just that what these people can't see is that as soon as they entered the cabin, Yue Qianqiu, who had just been reluctant, immediately smiled on his face. But before he could stop by to find it, he only heard a soft call: "Is it Qianqiu?" ”

Although it was only that time when Yue Xiaosi took him to Beizhuang, he got along with Princess Ping'an for two days, but Yue Qianqiu still had a very good impression of this Beiyan Jinzhi Yuye who smiled and said that he could only make dim sum - at least it was much better than the cheap dad of Yue Xiaosi. At this moment, he immediately answered, and then followed the sound and entered, pushing the door into a cabin on the right.

Although it was just a change of land for water and crossing the Yangtze River, at this time the cabin was neat and orderly, and the incense burner was even lit with refreshing sandalwood, and the thin Princess Ping'an was dressed in a lotus blue dress, standing there quietly, with a disgusting and happy face, not looking like a mother at all, but more like a kind big sister.

Obviously she was someone she had seen a long time ago, but after she winked at Yue Qianqiu, she pretended to be the same: "I heard your father talk about you many times, so I already knew that there was an extra son." Thank you for taking care of Nuno all the time, this first meeting, I didn't have any greeting gifts, so I made you something to eat. ”

As she spoke, she smiled and picked up a box from the table, stepped forward and handed it to Yue Qianqiu, this time, her voice was as small as a mosquito humming: "This is the one I saw you like the most last time, and I made a few more of each." It's a pity that the water quality and raw materials in the south and north are different, and the taste has changed, and it is not so delicious. ”

Seeing that Princess Ping'an showed a somewhat regretful expression as she spoke, Yue Qianqiu couldn't help but feel warm in her heart, and after taking the box, she nodded and said, "Thank you, mother." ”

This mother's call was a little stiff, and Princess Ping'an didn't know that it was for outsiders, but she still had some regrets in her heart. She took out a bag of things wrapped in a silk handkerchief from her arms and stuffed it directly into Yue Qianqiu's hand, and then said with some shame: "This is a little needle and thread that has nothing to do, two hair bands, and a forehead wipe, all for you." I'm not good at needlework, just a little bit of heart. ”

"For me?" Yue Qianqiu was slightly stunned, seeing that Princess Ping'an was smiling comfortably and sweetly, he just hesitated slightly, and then casually put down the box in his hand, just like at the beginning, stepped forward and hugged the weak mother, and then took two steps back, and said sincerely, "Thank you, mother, when you go home and rest for a few days, I will take you to Jinling City to go around!" ”

Even if Yue Qianqiu's intimate action just now was completely inconsistent with the etiquette law, although Beiyan also had a lot of rules and etiquette, in the end it was as rigorous as Nanwu, and when she heard this voice, even if she knew that such a title was likely to make outsiders suspicious, Princess Ping'an's pleasure couldn't help but spread from the corners of her mouth to her whole body.

"Then I'll keep it in mind, and when the time comes, you will take Nuno with me!"

When Yue Qianqiu came out of the cabin with Princess Ping'an in her arms, the boat board had already been set up, and Master Yue had already gotten off the boat and was talking to Master Yue San and Yue Xiuyi. He didn't notice the mother and son appearing, but he saw that Yue Xiuyi's face suddenly became a little strange, and then the third master Yue also looked at the bow of the boat dumbfounded, he immediately turned his head away, and then laughed.

"I knew that Qianqiu was a reasonable and good boy, and he should be able to get along well with his four siblings."

Hearing the words reasonable, Master Yue San and Yue Xiu were all dumbfounded. Reasonable? Is that more Qianqiu? Who doesn't know that kid is notoriously domineering and unreasonable, he just beat Shen Zheng, who knows the dignified martial arts and virtues, to the point of losing his armor, dismissing the official and exiled, how did he become a good boy in the mouth of the eldest master?

Especially the third master Yue, watching Yue Qianqiu carefully help the thin and delicate but gentle and generous young woman to get off the boat, he was as if he had seen a ghost.

That is Yue Qianqiu, who only serves the eldest wife in Yuefu, and treats the elders of the second and third rooms as non-existent at all? Okay, this kid turned out to be so slippery, not only did he know how to tie up with the old man, but now he was even more shameless enough to flatter his adoptive mother who had just appeared! He really underestimated him!

Of course, he scolded in his heart, but when Yue Qianqiu helped people to his face, the fourth brother and sister he saw for the first time curtsied and saluted him and called him the third brother, the third master Yue still had to squeeze out a smile, said a few dry and kind words, but his scrutinizing eyes did not leave her, and he curiously guessed what the origin of the daughter-in-law married by the fourth child was.

Although it doesn't look like a person's body is very good, but the posture, posture, words and deeds, all seem to come out of everyone, where did the fourth child kidnap such a daughter-in-law?

And the eldest lord and the more Qianqiu didn't give him a chance to investigate. At this time, Yue Qianqiu had time to send a message to the Yue Da Ye on behalf of the emperor, saying that he would let him go home first and then announce the debriefing later, and after the Yue Da Ye agreed, he used the excuse that the weather was cold and the four brothers and sisters were weak, so he couldn't help but order Yue Qianqiu to send people to the car.

At this time, Yue Qianqiu was completely obedient to the baby's posture, and he always only liked to ride horses and did not like to ride in the car, and after he sent Princess Ping'an to the carriage specially prepared by the eldest lady, he sat directly in it, and did not get off all the way.

So much so that when the group of carriages and horses finally entered the second gate of Yuefu and stopped, Yue Xiuyi couldn't help but stare at Yue Qianqiu, who reached out to hold people again after getting out of the car, and then looked up at the sun in the sky.

Is the sun coming out in the west today? Yue Qianqiu would actually play this set of mother and son filial piety so slippery?

However, before Yue Xiu could slander whether the fourth uncle and grandmother were also acting like Yue Qianqiu, she saw a small figure rushing over, and then hugged the fourth uncle and grandmother's thigh.

"Mother, you're finally back! Mother, I miss you so much, woo woo woo...... You don't have to go again, don't go again......"

Feeling her daughter's soft embrace and touch again, and hearing this delicate voice again, Princess Ping'an only felt that her heart melted. She held the little figure only up to her waist with trembling hands, and it took a long time to squeeze out a few words.

"If you don't leave, your mother will never leave again......"

Faced with this scene of the reunion of mother and son, Yue Qianqiu thought of the younger four who could not come back immediately, and suddenly felt a little pity for this cheap father who seemed to be omnipotent in heaven and earth. If it weren't for the fact that Zhen Rong had been left, Yue Xiaosi had sent away the old department first in a place like Beiyan, and now he didn't even have the only remaining psychological sustenance of his wife and daughter, it would be really difficult!

Hey, I didn't see the second monk today...... Could it be that people sent Princess Ping'an across the border, and then turned back to accompany Yue Xiaosi to share weal and woe?

Thinking of this, he stepped forward and squatted down beside Nuo Nuo, gently patted her hand that refused to let go, and whispered: "Nuo Nuo, be good, my mother has come back, and I won't leave in the future, let go of my hand and take my mother to my relatives to change clothes, okay?" ”

Nuo Nuo immediately let go of the hand that hugged Princess Ping'an's thigh, and then took the handkerchief handed by Yue Qianqiu, wiped away his tears and snot in three or two times, and handed the handkerchief back casually, only then did one hand tightly pull the corner of his mother's clothes and hold his head high.

"Brother Qianqiu, I will accompany my mother back to my relatives, and I will never let my mother leave in the future!"

Hearing this, the third master Yue moved in his heart, and said with a smile: "How big a place is it to live in that place, and besides, it was originally for Qianqiu, isn't it too cramped to let the fourth brother and sister live in?" The fourth brother's residence back then, Jin Xinge, is still there, and it would be more appropriate for the fourth brother and sister to move there with Nuo Nuo. ”

It stands to reason that Jin Xin Pavilion is the real core of the four rooms, so the more Qianqiu lives in the relatives' house, and the mother and daughter of the four rooms live in the Jin Xin Pavilion, the Yue Mansion should know who is the real Yue family and who is the outsider!
