Fang Xiaoyu seemed to feel it, he turned around and smiled at Elena, and Elena also smiled at him, after getting along for a long time, the two of them already had enough tacit understanding, they didn't need words, a smile was enough.

Back at the lord's courtyard in Vladivostok, Xiao Yunting had already prepared a table of meals, and when she saw the two sisters coming, she immediately warmly beckoned them to the brazier to roast the fire.

The Xia sisters also respect their future mother-in-law very much, and they are quite enthusiastic about Xiao Yunting, so they sit next to Xiao Yunting and ask questions, and take out the gift they brought to Xiao Yunting.

Xia Tingwei brought a self-striking clock, the whole bell is pure silver, there is a big opal on the top, and the pendulum below is a constantly rotating disc, there are many small animals inlaid with gems on the disk, and every hour this clock can make good music.

Xia Tingyun brought a valuable jewelry box, which was made of pure gold, inlaid with many broken diamonds and a huge emerald.

Both of these gifts were of great value, and it obviously took a lot of thought on the part of the two sisters. Fang Xiaoyu said with a smile: "You gave my mother such a valuable thing, so what is my gift?" ”

Xia Tingyun stuck out her cute little tongue and said, "I think of beauty, there is no gift." ”

Xia Tingwei smiled: "Xiao Yun, don't make trouble, didn't you take a lot of effort to pick a gift for him?" ”

Xia Tingyun glanced at her sister, turned around and rummaged through a small box in her carry-on bag, and said, "It's up to you to pick us up at the dock in person, give it to you." ”

Fang Xiaoyu took it with a smile, opened the box and found that it was a pocket watch with a gold shell, and there were delicate reliefs on the shell. Fang Xiaoyu said: "It's so beautiful, I like it very much." ”

Xia Tingyun said: "Really? I've been picking for a long time. ”

Xia Tingwei also smiled and took out a small box and said, "I also bought you a gift, but it's not as good as my sister." ”

Fang Xiaoyu took the box and said, "It's okay, as long as you buy it, I like it." ”

Xia Tingyun said on the side: "It's so meaty, you are still better to your sister than to me." ”

Fang Xiaoyu said: "If you are gentle, I will be kind to you." Xia Tingyun indulged her cute little nose and ignored him.

Fang Xiaoyu opened the box Xia Tingwei gave him, and inside was actually a delicate golden statue, the golden statue was a person lying on the table looking at a painting intently, and that person's face and clothes were vaguely his own back then.

Fang Xiaoyu was surprised: "This is the ......" Xia Tingwei blushed and said: "This is the time you came to my studio to look at the painting, and then I painted a portrait of you, and I found a goldsmith in the Western Continent to make this golden statue with that painting." Fang Xiaoyu said happily: "This golden statue is very meaningful, I want to keep it well." ”

Xiao Yunting said: "Okay, okay, after talking for so long, the dishes should be cold, hurry up and enter the table." ”

The four of them were seated, and Xiao Yunting smiled: "Xiaoyu, why don't you call that elf girl in for a meal together?" ”

Fang Xiaoyu was surprised: "Huh? Mother, what did you say? ”

Xiao Yunting said: "What else can you have, you have an extraordinary relationship with that elf girl, will I not know the way?" ”

Fang Xiaoyu scratched his head embarrassedly and secretly looked at the Xia family sisters. Xia Tingyun didn't speak, just lowered her head. Xia Tingwei was much more generous, she said: "You are now a lord, it is normal to have three wives and four concubines, you are still afraid that we will be jealous, let her in." It's a cold day, so it's not good for people to guard outside. Fang Xiaoyu nodded, turned around and walked out.

At this time, Elena was standing outside the house in a daze, not noticing that Fang Xiaoyu had arrived behind her. Fang Xiaoyu walked over and gently hugged Elena from behind.

Elena first tightened her body, and when she found out that it was Fang Xiaoyu, she gradually relaxed. Fang Xiaoyu put his mouth next to Elena's pointed ears and whispered, "Baby, I wronged you today, do you think I have snubbed you." ”

Elena's eyes turned red and said, "You should be nice to them, after all, they are your fiancée." I'm nothing but your bodyguard. ”

Fang Xiaoyu said: "What are you talking about, don't you know your status in my heart?" Let's go, they're all waiting for you. ”

"What?" Elena exclaimed, "What did you say to them?" ”

Fang Xiaoyu smiled: "I didn't say anything, it was my mother who knew it." ”

Elena was so anxious that her face flushed and she said, "What should I do then?" ”

Fang Xiaoyu said: "It's okay, my mother said that she wanted you to go in and eat together, and Tingwei also expressed her willingness to accept you." ”

"I ......," Elena didn't know what to say. Fang Xiaoyu said, "Okay, let's go." Fang Xiaoyu didn't give Elena a chance to object, and took her hand and walked into the house.

Elena was dragged into the room by Fang Xiaoyu, her face was flushed, and she didn't know where to put her nervous hands. Xia Tingwei smiled at Fang Xiaoyu, got up generously and pulled Elena to her side and sat down, chatting affectionately, Elena coped with it with some embarrassment, Xia Tingyun never looked up and only cared about eating, and never said anything from beginning to end.

After the meal, it was already late, and everyone went back to their rooms to rest. Fang Xiaoyu saw that Xia Tingyun was not in a high mood during the meal, and intended to talk to her, and after everyone dispersed, Fang Xiaoyu came to Xia Tingyun's door.

He just wanted to reach out and knock on the door, but when he heard the Xia family sisters talking inside, Fang Xiaoyu retracted his hand again.

"Sister, why didn't you talk during dinner today?" Xia Tingwei asked.

Xia Tingyun sighed and said, "You said that there are more and more women around my husband, what should I do?" ”

Xia Tingwei smiled: "What? Jealous? Doesn't even my sister think it's redundant. ”

Xia Tingyun said: "Sister, how can that be." I just think that there are more and more women around my husband, and I am afraid that he will no longer like me in the future. ”

"Who said that, when will Xiao Yun also be my favorite little baby." Fang Xiaoyu smiled and pushed the door directly and walked in.

Xia Tingyun said: "I hate it, you actually eavesdropped on our conversation." ”

Fang Xiaoyu smiled: "I saw that you were not in a high mood when you were eating, and I wanted to come over to see you, and I overheard it." ”

Xia Tingyun ran over and pounded Fang Xiaoyu's chest with her small fist and said, "It's not all your fault, it's all about flowers and grass everywhere." With our two sisters, they were not satisfied, and they provoked the elf girl. ”

Fang Xiaoyu hugged Xia Tingyun's waist and said, "Okay, I promise you that from now on, I will never mess with flowers and grass again, okay." ”

Xia Tingwei sighed and said: "You are so good, it is difficult not to mess with flowers and grass, you still don't want to guarantee it." ”

Xia Tingyun puffed out her cheeks and said: "No, then I have to promise him, if he loses his words, he will be punished ......"

Xia Tingyun couldn't think of anything to punish him. Xia Tingwei smiled: "Just punish him for not holding you." ”

Xia Tingyun said: "That's not good, I like to let him hold me." Listening to Xia Tingyun's words, Fang Xiaoyu laughed, the most tricky thing was to pass the test temporarily, Fang Xiaoyu secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

After staying in the lord's courtyard for a few days, and the day of entering Beijing was not far away, Fang Xiaoyu decided to leave for the capital to report on his work. Fang Xiaoyu took the Xia family sisters, Elena and many guards to Tongjiang Mansion by train first, and then transferred to a carriage to the capital.

Fang Xiaoyu, who is used to being a train, has always hated the bumps of the carriage, so he specially customized two carriages for going out, but most of the trips he traveled within the Chinese Territory were by train, and these two carriages had not been done once, and this time he entered Beijing and finally came in handy.

The horse-drawn carriages of this world are generally two-wheeled carriages, driven by two horses, mainly because of the poor road conditions, and two-wheeled carriages are more adaptable than four-wheeled carriages.

However, Fang Xiaoyu customized two four-wheeled carriages, which used pneumatic tires made by Xiaofeng, and a set of spring shock absorption system made by Browning Hammer himself between the axle and the carriage, and the driving wheel used a four-horse driving mode with two references and two rides.

In this way, the carriage was much wider and more stable, and with enough carrying capacity, Fang Xiaoyu inlaid a thin steel plate in the wall plate to prevent assassination.

With these two carriages, Fang Xiaoyu's journey was a lot more comfortable. Since Xiao Yunting is also going back to Beijing together, one of the carriages is specially used to accommodate Xiao Yunting, and the Xia sisters volunteered to talk to Xiao Yunting.

Unexpectedly, Elena was a little embarrassed when she saw that the Xia family sisters were not in the same car with Fang Xiaoyu, so she actually chose to ride a horse. As a result, Fang Xiaoyu could only take a carriage by himself, and there was not even anyone to talk to along the way, which made him bored to death.

In addition to these two specially made carriages, dozens of ordinary carriages accompanied them, which carried a number of escorts in addition to all the applications to be used on the road.

Now Fang Xiaoyu's identity is extremely high, and the escort team has also risen, it has reached the scale of 500 people, in order to protect Fang Xiaoyu, these guards even brought five heavy machine guns and five mortars on the carriage, and there were 200 guards on horseback to accompany the guard. Under such strict protection, Fang Xiaoyu and his party rushed to the capital.

With such a strong guard force, where would a thief or river thief who was not long-eyed dare to make a move, so they had a safe and sound journey, and after a month's trek, Fang Xiaoyu and the others finally returned to the capital.

The Xia sisters returned to their homes first, and Fang Xiaoyu accompanied his mother back to the Fang family's old house. Back at home, Fang Xiaoyu was naturally warmly welcomed by his family, especially the three grandfathers were full of praise for Fang Xiaoyu's achievements in the past two years, and even his father, who was always not smiling, also had an approving smile on his face.

The next morning, it was not a great court, and the lord could not go to the court to see the emperor. Unexpectedly, Fang Rui and the others received the emperor's holy decree after they dispersed, and the emperor wanted to summon Fang Xiaoyu alone.
