"Hide?" Gu Zhengze looked at his old wife and couldn't help laughing: "How can Lin Xiang's small actions in private be hidden from the emperor." It's just that because he has been in the first auxiliary position for many years, although he is a little rigid and self-serving, he is really conscientious, and some selfish plans for himself, and the emperor also turns a blind eye, just don't go out of line. This matter has nothing to do with our third child."

"Why did the lord say this?" Mrs. Gu frowned: "Fifth Master Lin is doing things in Ningling, and he relies on the convenience of the old three lines, how can it be irrelevant to us."

"Having said that," Gu Zhengze calmly patted Mrs. Gu's hand: ". Think about it, Lin Xiang is the first assistant, even if he is not the third child in our family, if he changes any person to Ningling County, dare not do it for him? The emperor understands psychologically. If our third child doesn't follow Lin Xiang's path back to Beijing, then what he did in Ningling was forced by the situation, because he didn't dare to offend Shoufu. If you leave the relationship between Lin Xiang, it will be a transaction. ”

Mrs. Gu thought about it for a while, and then understood what Gu Zhengze meant, and nodded suddenly with understanding: "The lord is saying that the emperor can tolerate Lin for personal gain, but he can't bear his subordinates to form a party."

"Exactly." Gu Zhengze nodded: "However, in private, the third child's favor, Lin Wuye wants to admit it." Lin Wuye's recognition is equivalent to Lin Xiang's recognition, but this favor does not have to be on the third child. ”

"Got it!" Mrs. Gu smiled and nodded: "In this way, it is indeed appropriate for the third child to go to the military department to find an errand after returning to Beijing." The border passes in the north are perennially uneasy, and the most important thing is the military department, in addition to the household department and the official department. It just so happened that June was Miss Mu's thirteenth birthday, and I had to ask the ninth sister to make sure that she carefully prepared the ceremony. ”

"Ninth Sister is a smart one," Gu Zhengze sighed: "I am naturally relieved that she is doing things." It's just that this child is also pitiful, the three of them have been in office all the year round, she has grown up with us since she was a child, and she can't see her father's face. Seeing that this is all over, I will get married in a few years, and I will have no chance to get along with my parents at that time. ”

"Master, this is something I thought of." Mrs. Gu replied with a smile: "I was thinking that the third child will not be able to come back from his office this year." The ninth sister is all in time, and the relatives are not in a hurry, and after the autumn, let her go to Ningling to live for a few months, and come back after the New Year, so that the family can be reunited. The third couple haven't seen their daughter for two years, so they must have thought about it. ”

"It's good!" Gu Zhengze nodded in agreement: "Just look at the arrangement."

In this way, Gu Zhengze and his wife discussed everything. On the second day, Mrs. Gu really prepared a medicinal supplement, asked Gu Yilan to write a post by herself, and sent someone to send it to Xie Xiang's mansion in the name of Gu Yilan, "Greetings to Miss Xie Si, who is sick."

Xie Shurou, who hid in the house and didn't dare to go out, was so angry that she grinded her teeth after receiving this "visit gift". As soon as she looked at Gu Yilan's post, she knew that the guy actually knew that she was pretending to be sick.

She felt that Gu Yilan and her were simply natural opponents. Gu Yilan's official partner came to harass her every day, even if she was a vicious female partner, she pretended to be sick and hid, and this guy actually gave a gift to gloat! Oh, my God! It's really unbearable!

But if you can't bear it, you have to endure it, who makes the family the heroine, and she's just a poor female partner! Not only must I endure it, but I also have to prepare a return gift for this "visit ceremony" that is not sincere at all.

Xie Shurou, who was half angry, immediately ordered the kitchen to make a box of delicate quiches and sent them to Gu Yilan as a return gift. She didn't forget, the last time she went out to swim in the lake, Little Sister Mu ordered a plate of quiches in Taibai Building, but Gu Yilan said that she couldn't eat quiches, and she would have stomach trouble if she ate them.

And after Gu Yilan received the malicious "return gift", she couldn't help laughing: "Hmph! knew that she was pretending. ”

But Mu Hongsheng of Anguo Mansion didn't know about the confrontation between Gu Yilan and Xie Shurou, she went to and from school with her brothers as usual these days, and spent her spare time continuing to sew backpacks.

The eldest brother will be back soon, and Mu Qingyi decided to urge his younger siblings to sew out the backpacks for the second and third brothers and send them to the north, saving the eldest brother from returning home and finding that the backpack he received was the ugliest one.

Therefore, these days, the four children of the Mu family are really busy, hurrying and hurrying, and finally sewed out two other backpacks in mid-May.

"It's good, it's good," Mu Lingyi lifted the other two backpacks and looked at them, and nodded with satisfaction: "Sure enough, it's much stronger than the previous one, and even the threads of the little sister's sewing are much straighter."

"But how do you send it to the second brother and the third brother?" Mu Jinyi scratched his head: "My family only brought things to the north last month, and we didn't catch up."

"Why don't we go to the post post and hire a messenger ourselves?" Mu Hongshang thought about it and came up with a new idea: "Didn't Mr. Sun say that the post post can also carry private messages, but the price is more expensive, and it is slower than the letter difference at home." Anyway, Daddy couldn't have sent a messenger to the north for the two of us, so we might as well go to the post post. ”

"Then I'll ask Mr. Sun tomorrow," Mu Qingyi replied after thinking about it: "Inquire about where the post post in the capital is, the three of you will go back tonight and write a letter, and I will take you out to send it."

As soon as Mu Qingyi's words fell, a voice came from behind him: "A few of you, do you want to sneak out and run around secretly from your family?" When did I agree to you going out? I still want to find a post office. Am I okay with that? ”

"Uncle," Mu Qingyi turned his head to look behind him: "Shouldn't you be in the study at this time?" How did you get to the garden? ”

"You kid," An Guogong scolded with a smile: "You are allowed to take your younger siblings to the pavilion to do needlework, and I am not allowed to hang out?"

"Daddy, look," Mu Hongshang raised the backpack in his hand as if offering a treasure: "The backpack for my brother has been sewn, Daddy will help me try it."

An Guogong took the strange-looking backpack, carried it on his back according to his daughter's guidance, and after turning around left and right, he looked interested: "Huh? It really seems more convenient than the package. Ling Yi, go find something with weight for Uncle and stuff it in, I'll see what happens when I put it in. ”

Mu Lingyi ran quickly, and it didn't take much effort to come back from the Xifeng Pavilion near the back garden with a vase and two inkstones. He put all his things on the stone table in the pavilion and asked, "Uncle, are these enough?"

"Load it in first." An Guogong took the backpack off his body, personally put the vase and inkstone into the backpack, and then fastened the backpack mouth and carried the backpack on his back.

"Ling Yi come here," An Guogong, who was carrying a backpack on his back, beckoned to Mu Lingyi: "There are also Tsing Yi, Jin Yi and Red Yi, I haven't tested your homework for a long time, come here, try your skills."
