Chapter 269: It's not easy to be the head of the family

At twilight, the team returning to Beijing finally arrived in Chang'an City-

"Sister!"

Compared with the last time I came to Chang'an, the scene was much quieter. Only the King of Qin and his wife waited outside the city gate to welcome Princess Pingyang and her party back to Beijing. Xue Lang, as a member of the princess's mansion, naturally wanted to follow the princess to meet the Qin royal couple -

"The ministers will meet the King of Qin and the Princess of Qin."

"Excuse me, please get up."

In the future, the current princess of Qin is wearing a hat, and at a glance, her face is not real. Xue Lang is a man, no matter how curious he is, he can't stare at people, so he naturally bows his head and salutes.

Princess Pingyang said: "The weather is cold, you and I are all a family, why go out of the city to greet each other?" Let's get home. ”

Princess Qin said: "Sister hasn't been back to Chang'an for a long time, and I miss it very much, so I came to greet Sister and talk about the feelings of longing in our hearts." And when Sister returns to Beijing, how can she not welcome her? Sister, please. ”

After a few pleasantries, they got into the carriage. After entering the city gate, Princess Pingyang ordered someone to pass the word, ordering her subordinates to go home without formality.

Su Han had nowhere to go, and he didn't want to follow him to the princess's mansion, so he could only follow his good friends Xue Lang and Jiang Lin to the county mansion. The county government had already received the news that Xue Lang and Jiang Lin had returned to Beijing.

The main gate of the county mansion was wide open, and Su Siniang was dressed up and waited at the gate early with someone, waiting to greet Xue Lang and her husband.

"Lady, Da Lang and Erlang's convoy has already passed Suzaku Street, and they are almost home!"

"Okay, let's go again."

Su Siniang asked Ah Chen to go out with several small servants, and she came to report it after a mile, and she waited with someone. As the little guys talked back and forth one after another, Xue Lang's honor guard could already be seen from afar-

Ever since he had the trilogy, Xue Lang had returned the people of the Weiwei Temple, and all the honor guards were selected from his own trilogy. Usually I have never used it in Weize Pass, that is, when I came to Chang'an, I asked the guard of honor to open the guard of honor.

The little sister welcomed her brother back home and welcomed her husband home. I haven't seen you for many days, are my brother and husband all right? ”

When he arrived at the gate, Xue Lang jumped out of the carriage, and Su Ran immediately led the servants to come forward and salute. Jiang Lin's eyes couldn't wait to stick directly to his daughter-in-law, and the smile on his face was sweet and greasy.

Xue Lang said: "Brother and sister are exempt, the family doesn't need to be so polite, it's cold outside, let's go back quickly." By the way, this is Su Han and Su Hengyu, who are good friends of me and Ah Lin, and they also live in the mansion together, so please arrange it for my younger siblings. ”

"Whoa."

Su Siniang blessed Su Han, and Su Han hurriedly returned the salute: "My little brother has seen my sister-in-law, and I will trouble my sister-in-law in the future!" ”

That's right! The three of them passed the age in order, needless to say that Xue Lang was the oldest, and then Jiang Lin, Su Han was one year younger than Jiang Lin, so he could only call his sister-in-law.

When a group of people enter the house, the things they bring are naturally cleaned up by the servants, which is the advantage of being an official in feudal society, and there is no need to worry about miscellaneous matters at all, and their own servants are properly organized.

Xue Lang looked at his home-

Compared to the last time he left Chang'an, this family looked much more popular. The courtyard, the corridor, and everything that should be furnished are all placed, and they will no longer be deserted.

Xue Lang nodded in satisfaction.

Su Dye has already asked people to prepare dinner, which are all fresh and refreshing dishes, and nothing is too greasy. After driving for many days, I really don't have the appetite to eat any oily dishes, but the porridge side dishes are more delicious.

After eating, Xue Lang said: "After so many days of driving, everyone is tired. Ah Lin and his younger siblings have been separated for a long time, and they have something else to complain about, so they won't say anything today, let's wash up and rest. ”

Jiang Lin nodded violently in agreement, which made Xue Lang laugh, provoked Su Han's envious and jealous white eyes, and made Su Ran's delicate face red!

They went back to their rooms, hot water was prepared in the room, Xue Lang took a hot bath, and when he lay on the bed, he noticed the soreness of his muscles, and he felt that the bed was shaking in a trance, which was the sequelae of the carriage sitting too much.

I walked on the road for more than half a month, and it is already December, and the New Year will be in a few days. I think that even if the saint has other arrangements for him, he will have to wait until Chinese New Year's Eve to make arrangements.

After resolving the misunderstanding with Her Royal Highness the Princess, Xue Lang was not in a hurry to resign. In the past, he was angry when he was in a hurry to resign, but now he has an unspeakable mind about people, which is a bit contradictory. Xue Lang secretly thought that continuing to serve as an advisor was to have contact with Her Royal Highness the Princess, so that it would be convenient to communicate. Otherwise, if there is no such relationship, how can he, a big man, visit the widowed princess's mansion? Do you recommend yourself to be the first face?

That's enough! Xue Lang felt that there was no one else in his thinking! It's hard for him to deviate, it's really not easy to pursue his sweetheart in ancient times. If you are not careful, you will teach each other privately, and if you don't do it, you will ruin the two of you.

Xue Lang himself is nothing, but he really likes the princess, so naturally he doesn't want to hurt the princess's reputation because of his recklessness. In Xue Lang's view, if you really like her, you must respect the other person's personality and emotions, which is actually the basis for any relationship.

I thought about it for a while, I don't know when I fell asleep, and when I woke up, it was already three poles in the morning. Although because of the rank and the fact that she came to Chang'an with Princess Pingyang, the post stations along the way are all entertained with the best conditions, but the conditions of the post station are limited after all, and it is naturally not as comfortable as at home. It's no wonder that I slept heavily and woke up late.

When Xue Lang got up, Lamei and Dong Solstice, under the guidance of Hexiang, had already placed the things they brought back from Weize Pass. After Xue Lang got up, he immediately came to serve him to wash up.

After washing up and using the breakfast directly, Su Siniang, accompanied by Jiang Lin, came to talk to him about something. first sorted out the accounts of Xue Lang during his absence in the mansion to Xue Lang.

Xue Lang nodded while listening, and said: "Hard brother and sister, although the population in my house is simple, the so-called family affairs have always been complicated. I've been bothered to help my younger brother and sister take care of the house for a long time, and it's been hard! ”

Su Siniang said: "The eldest brother is polite, but the younger sister's ability is limited, and she can only do her best." I just hope that the eldest brother will find a good match as soon as possible and marry a sister-in-law to come in, so that the younger sister can get out. ”

On the first day of returning to Chang'an, he was urged to marry...... This feeling is also drunk!

Xue Lang snorted and quickly changed the topic: "Brother and sister, my family members of those tribals have been arranged?" ”

Su Siniang's face was solemn, and she said, "Little sister is about to talk to her brother about this. ”

Xue Lang also followed Zhengse and said, "Brother and sister, please speak." ”

Su Siniang said: "Big brother, the family of the tribe, the younger sister has obeyed the arrangement of the elder brother, and all of them have been arranged to Yongye Tian. The day when these people returned was autumn and winter, and with the assistance of Princess Pingyang's mansion in Anguo, the housing had been roughly arranged, and a batch of food and clothing had been urgently purchased. However, before the next year's grain harvest, these newcomers will have no harvest to eat, and the government will need food and clothing. In addition, it is necessary to provide grain seeds and agricultural tools, as well as animal power for plowing the fields. These are the biggest expenses of the coming year! Coupled with the servants in the house, with all due respect to the younger sister, she only relies on the eldest brother's income, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to support. When to solve? Please also ask the eldest brother to show me. ”
