Listening to Gu Yilan's words, Mu Zhengyi was stunned for a moment, he turned his head and looked at his wife carefully for a long time before he spoke: "Naturally, I won't doubt you." When I was in Tong County, you once mentioned me, saying that Lin Xiang may have the mind of begging bones, but I didn't expect that from the time you and I met in Tiantong Mountain to the time we got married, it was only half a year, and Lin Xiang was really going to die so soon? And how do you know that he can't put it off this summer? Can you be sure? ”

"Nature." Gu Yilan nodded, of course she could be sure that Lin Xiang would return to her hometown at the end of this summer, and this incident was extremely deep in her memory, because in her previous life, the battle between the first assistant and the first assistant for more than five years began in the summer of this year.

Five years later, in the middle of winter, at the end of the year when she was twenty-one years old, the battle between the first assistant ended, and the scholar Gu was defeated.

So how could she be mistaken, Lin Xiang will return to his hometown this summer, Gu Yilan couldn't be more sure.

However, although Gu Yilan was sure, she couldn't tell Mu Zhengyi directly, after all, the fact of rebirth was too unbelievable to be believed.

Therefore, Gu Yilan still threw out the excuse she had thought of a long time ago: "It's not that my husband doesn't know that my father is very close to Lin Wuye in Ningling. ”

"I know that Fifth Master Lin is close to his father-in-law," Mu Zhengyi nodded with some hesitation: "Didn't he even propose a kiss for Lin Zhiting." It's just that Lin Xiang is ......"

"I'm your wife, so I won't hide it from you," Gu Yilan said very bluntly: "Lin Wuye bought land and property in the Ningling area so smoothly, and now in just two years, he has already turned Sancheng private land near Ningling into his Lin family's grange, and also bought more than a dozen shops in Ningling and Songcheng, does the husband think that Lin Wuye relied on whose help to be so smooth, Lin Xiang who is far away in Beijing?" ”

"Isn't it?" Mu Zhengyi asked: "I thought that the magistrates of Song Cheng and Ningling, including my father-in-law, would give Lin Wuye three points of thin noodles no matter what, after all, he was the son of the first and auxiliary prime minister of the dynasty." ”

"That's right." Gu Yilan nodded: "It is true that they will give him three points of thin noodles, but everything has a degree, and these three points of affection can't support him to buy three percent of the private land near Ningling at a low price." ”

"You mean, it was my father-in-law who took the initiative to help?" Mu Zhengyi frowned.

"Or rather, it's a tacit deal between my grandfather and Lin Xiang." Gu Yilan replied: "Fujun just mentioned the matter of Tong County, then do you remember that I also told you in Tong County that He Wenmao is a student of Lin Xiang, and Lin Xiang is not very at ease with Sun Shangshu of the household department. ”

"Yes." Mu Zhengyi nodded: "However, the situation in the DPRK and China has changed, although it has only been half a year, the situation is very different from when we met. He Wenmao's entry into Beijing this time was aimed at the position of the secretary of the Ministry of War. ”

"But my father wasn't." Gu Yilan suddenly said: "According to my understanding of my grandfather, if there is a shortage of the household department and the military department, he must give priority to the household department, after all, the military department is mixed, the situation is changeable, and it is not as stable as the household department." My grandfather's expectations of my father were still high. ”

Mu Zhengyi's eyes narrowed slightly: "Lan'er, your father is about to return to Beijing, right?" ”

"My mother came back with my eldest brother first." Gu Yilan replied softly: "I thought she was going back to Beijing to send me married, but I only found out a few days ago, it turned out that it was not, she didn't plan to go back, a few days ago I heard her ask my second aunt about Hongwen Pavilion, and wanted to invite a famous gentleman for my eldest brother over there." ”

Gu Yilan was telling the truth. Gu San's grandmother and her brother really didn't plan to go back to Ningling. According to Yilan's understanding of her mother, she knew that her mother would never leave her father alone in Ningling. Therefore, Grandma Gu San didn't plan to go back, it only meant one thing, that is, Gu Sanye really wanted to come back.

Gu Yilan was originally just talking about things.

She mentioned this matter just to convince Mu Zhengyi that Lin Xiang was going to return to her hometown soon, but as she spoke, she really began to feel a little sad. So she kept her mouth shut, not wanting to mention her mother and brother again, and planned to prove her sources in a different way.

But Mu Zhengyi keenly captured his wife's emotions, he took Gu Yilan's hand, pulled her into his arms, and patted her back gently: "Lan'er, don't be sad, you are the daughter-in-law of the Mu family now, and the elders will love you as a family member of our family." ”

As soon as Gu Yilan opened her mouth to answer, there was a sudden sound of footsteps in the courtyard of Old Madam Mu, as if someone was running, but between breaths, Mu Jinyi appeared at the gate of the courtyard. He was originally busy escaping, but when he saw Mu Zhengyi and Gu Yilan hugging each other not far away, he stopped his steps directly.

"Huh?" Mu Jinyi immediately giggled heartlessly: "It turns out that the eldest brother and sister-in-law are here." No wonder sister-in-law ......"

Before he finished speaking, he was hit by Mu Hongsheng who rushed out next, Mu Hongsheng reacted quickly, quickly stood firm, and seized the moment when Mu Jinyi could not keep his balance, and made up for his ass again, causing Mu Jinyi to almost kneel.

However, Mu Liugongzi is also worthy of being a future general, quickly supported the ground with one hand, kept his balance, and then punched Mu Hongsheng in the face, but unfortunately, today is a big day for the newlywed sister-in-law to serve tea, and Mu Zhengyi, who is wholeheartedly thinking about his daughter-in-law, will not let his younger siblings smash the field at this time.

Therefore, Mu Zhengyi quickly came out of the town, and before Mu Jinyi's punch hit Mu Hongsheng's face, he directly dragged him by the neck and collar, throwing it backwards like throwing a sandbag.

"Big brother! You're pulling the shelf again! Mu Jinyi turned over in the air and landed steadily, and then began to jump to his feet in anger: "Why are you partial to my sister, obviously she hit me first." ”

"So you're not convinced?" The corners of Mu Zhengyi's mouth curled, and he asked with a smile.

"Forget it today," Mu Jinyi was very clever and steered: "It's not that I can't beat my sister, it's that I let her go for the time being!" We'll settle the scores tomorrow! What's inside, let's take a walk, first go to see my sister-in-law to make tea. ”

Mu Hongsheng looked at Mu Jinyi, who had a weak face, and suddenly raised her eyebrows, revealing a wicked smile: "Jinyi, what did you want to say when you stood at the door just now." ”

"It's nothing," Mu Jinyi rolled his eyes, and replied with a smile: "Seeing the eldest brother and sister-in-law hugging each other, I wonder if my sister-in-law is late." ”

As soon as the words fell, Gu Yilan's face turned red, and Mu Zhengyi stretched out his hand to carry his younger brothers and sisters, but the two little bastards who had been prepared turned around together and ran directly to Old Madam Mu's main hall.

The young couple could hear Mu Jinyi shouting in a loud voice across the courtyard gate: "Grandmother, sister-in-law is finally here!" ”
