One evening a few days later, the porter sent a letter, Xiao Jingkang and Tong Mingyu hurriedly took the letter to Ninghetang, and the family members who got the news put down what they were doing and followed, because they were also worried about their distant relatives.

After Xiao Yao learned the news, before Xiao Yuan could react, she forgot to say hello to Mama Ruan, put down the purse that was embroidering, and ran towards Ning Hetang.

"Mama, what's wrong with my sister." The delicate Xiao Yuan asked puzzled.

"Probably your grandfather wrote from me." This child is sometimes more reactive than adults, and sometimes he is not in a state at all. For example, the matter of Yun Can and Tang Hao, everyone can see it clearly, but she has never thought about it at all, Mama Ruan has never taught a child like Xiao Yao!

"Will it? These maids don't know what to say, where can I guess! Say goodbye, help me change my clothes, oops! No need to change, I'm going to chase my sister, grandma, I'll come back later and continue to learn? ”

"Go ahead."

The care and concern between the Xiao family is completely true, without a little fame and fortune, Mama Ruan has never seen a family like me and them in the palace for so many years.

The little apprentice has a lot of attachment to General Xiao, and he is a master in his eyes, and from her reaction just now, it can be seen that nothing is more important than General Xiao's letter. Because the matter on her side was not finished, she didn't even remember to say hello and ran away, which had never happened before.

"Is it a letter from my grandfather?" Before Xiao Yao entered Ninghe Hall, the question had already sounded.

"The master didn't hurt this child in vain." Qin said with relief, the little granddaughter looked indifferent, but in fact, she was a child with affection and righteousness.

"Don't run, the letter won't fly away." Tong Mingyu stopped her daughter, who was running briskly, and took out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat beads on her forehead.

"Mother, my daughter is asking you if you have a letter from your grandfather, but you answered me!" Mother, please get to the point.

"Yes, and good news."

"What's the good news, is my grandfather coming back?"

"They should already be on their way back by now, we just calculated that it will be back in Kyoto in about 20 days."

"Great, I'm going to pick up my grandfather and second uncle outside the city, by the way, will the fourth uncle come back with me?"

"Your grandfather and uncles are back." Xiao Jingkang said with some surprise, the person who snatched his daughter with him is coming back, and the three of them are coming back together, looking safe and happy, if she goes out for so long, I don't know if she will miss herself like this!

"Your grandfather explained in the letter that he would not let you and Ruyi go to the city gate to greet you, saying that there must be a lot of people that day, and it would be difficult to go in case of a collision, so you should just wait at home." Tong Mingyu repeated his father-in-law's instructions.

What she didn't expect was that her daughter, who had always been obedient, actually lost her temper this time, and no matter how she persuaded her, she had to insist on picking up people.

Seeing that the mother and daughter couldn't hold each other, Xiao Jingkang had no choice but to come forward to act as a peacemaker.

"Let Ping An go, and let Ah Yi stay by their side every step of the way."

"I'll be obedient and don't move in the carriage, as long as I look at my grandfather and two uncles from a distance."

The words were all said and done, and Tong Mingyu had no choice but to refuse, so he had to agree.

"Ping'an, you said that you were going to exchange gifts with the fourth uncle, I don't know if you are ready." Xiao Rui finally found an opportunity to speak and reminded Xiao Yaodao.

"It's ready, and I promise to surprise the fourth uncle when the time comes." Xiao Yao responded to the fourth brother with crooked eyebrows.

Everyone here, one counts as one, and they all have a hunch that Xiao Jingyan is afraid that she will fall into the trap of peace again this time, looking at her bad expression, everyone is now beginning to sympathize with Xiao Jingyan who has not come back yet.

In the following days, the Xiao family was busy, Tong Mingyu and Li Jiaoying made all kinds of preparations to welcome their father-in-law, King Jing returned to Beijing, the dark tide in the court surged, and some old ministers or people with ulterior motives began to inquire around for news, who would believe it if they had been a bandit for more than a year!

Some people are speculating about the true intention of King Jing's trip, and some people are thinking that the Xiao family is about to become the emperor's most trusted family this time. Otherwise, why didn't the emperor send someone else to pick up King Jing, but instead sent General Xiao and his son, besides, King Jing was followed by a Xiao Jingyan when he left.

Some of the active official wives have begun to inquire about the grandchildren of the Xiao family, and then they discovered a strange phenomenon, the Xiao family has not married or married the following men since Xiao Jingyan. Although there are fewer girls, how wrong are the people who have been taught by Mama Ruan. So everyone was eager to try, just waiting for the attitude of the emperor and King Jing to come out and plan to come to the door to propose.

Xiao Yao has already started to embroider things with needles and threads, she likes to draw patterns by herself, and then embroider by hand, at first she thought she would not be able to sit still, I am afraid that she will not have the patience to fiddle with those handkerchiefs and purses one by one. It was Mama Ruan's words that made her settle down and quietly prepare gifts for her grandfather, father, and brothers.

"Master has never seen a more favored girl than the two of you, although the family's contribution is not in return, but don't you want your grandfather to hang his own hand-embroidered purse around his waist? Do you want fathers to look with envy at other adults wearing new shoes and clothes made by their daughters and nieces? Don't you care that your brothers are teased by their friends and classmates for carrying the bookbags embroidered by the maids every day? ”

"Master, don't say it, I must study hard, and I won't let others laugh at my grandfather, father and brothers in the future." Xiao Yao did what she said, practicing embroidery skills at the rate of one purse a day, and she decided to wait for her craftsmanship to be more exquisite before officially embroidering purses for her family.

Xiao Yuan had a headache when she saw embroidery, but she couldn't learn nothing, she decided to learn cooking after weighing it, she believed that with her liking delicious food and knowing how to appreciate the characteristics of food, she would be able to make delicious snacks.

The family members agreed with the choice of the two girls, especially Xiao Yao, they had high hopes, and they all hoped that they would be the first to get the purse she embroidered by herself, and Xiao Rui put forward his own requirements.

"I'm going to bring a tiger, the majestic kind."

"In view of the fact that your request sister can't meet your requirements now, wait three years, and I will definitely hand you a purse with a tiger." On such a small object, if you want to embroider such a big animal, the fourth brother's requirements for his sister are not ordinarily high!

"Just embroider a few bamboo leaves for the second brother safely." Xiao Yi likes bamboo very much, and he is reluctant to let his sister suffer, so he proposes a way to satisfy himself and reduce his sister's burden.

"Don't worry, I will definitely try my best to meet everyone's requests, except for the Tiger Delivery Union, which will be three years late, the rest of the people will receive gifts when their grandfather returns." What Mama said is not wrong at all, being able to do things for the people you like is just different, Xiao Yao vowed to study female celebrity well, not only to embroider jewelry for everyone, but also to make clothes and shoes for them in the future.

"I can't blame it all! My mother has never done this for me, how did I know that embroidering tigers would be so troublesome, or you can watch it well, just don't put the fourth brother alone at the end. ”

Among the three daughters-in-law of the Xiao family, Tong Mingyu is very good, but she has no time to do these things at all, except for the intimate clothes of her husband and son, she has to count on the needlework room to help.

Li Jiaoying is okay to make clothes, but the embroidery is not satisfactory, Xiao Jingtai often laughed at her and said that she had no daughter in the second room, otherwise she would have to ask her sister-in-law to help embroider a small skirt, counting on her as a mother, she can only wear clothes without patterns; It's hard to say when it comes to Yuan Yutong, people are hands with knives and guns, but they have never held embroidery needles.

So all the things on poor Xiao Rui's body are from the hands of the embroidery lady at home, and now he is finally going to use the purse embroidered by his sister, no wonder he is looking forward to it!

Xiao Yao put away the few slightly inferior purses she embroidered first, and when she thought that her craftsmanship was okay, she was the first to pick up the materials and patterns she had selected for her grandfather and officially started the needlework......

By the time Xiao Yao finished embroidering the eleven purses, General Xiao and his brigade had already entered the Central Plains, and they would be able to return to Beijing in a few days.

The family is also getting happier day by day, because three relatives are coming back at once, so everyone's face is full of smiles in the past two days.

Xiao Jingmin and his wife also rushed back, and the family naturally wanted to reunite together, Xiao Yuan dedicated the dim sum that had been researched and improved by himself, and looked forward to everyone's affirmation and support.

"It tastes good." Qin felt that it was a little too sweet, but when it was time to encourage, he must open his mouth to encourage.

"Why do I think it's not as delicious as Ping'an!" Xiao Rui picked up a piece and turned it over, turned it over, looked at it and looked at it, and said critically.

"It's good to eat some, where did you get so many opinions." Xiao Jingmin slapped his son vigorously and reprimanded him loudly.

"From now on, Ari is not allowed to eat snacks." Yuan Yutong thinks that her daughter is much stronger than herself, and she is only a few years old! will make dim sum, more than myself as a mother, it seems that my daughter still has hope to become a lady, and a talented woman is not completely hopeless.

"My aunt likes the snacks she makes." Tong Mingyu spoke out in support of her little niece.

"It's on par with what Ping An does." Li Jiaoying can't say that Ruyi's dim sum is better than Ping'an's cooking, although it is not very delicious, but people have a lot of room for development! I believe that in another three years and five years, Ruyi's craftsmanship will definitely improve.

Xiao Yao also ate two pieces for face, she was going to explain the tips of making dim sum to her sister in private, it is good to be innovative, but some traditional things should not be discarded.

Only by learning from each other's strengths, having patience and perseverance can we do things well.
