Regardless of whether it is an oolong or not, after welcoming Xiao Rui, the Zhou family also knows in their hearts that if they delay any longer, it will be impossible to wait for the Yan King or Princess Yan they want to see. In that case, why drag on to make jokes happen?

Master Zhou pulled his beloved son Zhou Yazheng to send Xiao Rui out, and at the same time signaled to his family with his eyes that it was time to prepare to go out. Everyone has already loaded their luggage into the car, put on their clothes, eaten and drunk, and is just a step away from going out. Even if there is only half a day left today, you can't catch up with much, you can go as far as you can, even if you can only go to the temple where the second elder has stopped, there is no need to delay any longer. The Zhou family has been in the city of Beiping for decades, but before leaving, they can't tell the small families on this street to see a joke!

Taking advantage of the moment when Master Zhou gave the family a look, Zhou Ya was sending Xiao Rui out of the door first, and then took advantage of the unpreparedness of others to apologize to Xiao Rui.

Whether it was the idea that the second room of the Zhou family wanted to marry their daughter Zhou Yaqing, the girl on Thursday, to Xiao Rui, or was later instigated by Mrs. Xu, to make an outer room for General Xiao Yuan, the future son-in-law of Yanwangfu, and destroy the happiness of the marriage of the lord of Yongping, it was all an offense by the Zhou family to this relative of Yanwangfu. Zhou Yazheng couldn't see King Yan and his wife and Lord Yongping, so he could only ask Xiao Rui, the son of King Yan, to convey his apology. In the past, when Mr. Zhou was still there, in fact, King Yan and his wife treated him well. Although he was the third son of the long house, he could not influence the decision of the second uncle and aunt, but at that time, the Zhou family had not yet separated, and he still felt that the idea of the second uncle and the second aunt was too sorry for the Yan Wangfu. He doesn't care what the rest of the family thinks, but he himself has to pay for it on behalf of his family. If he didn't do this, he would not be able to get over it in his heart no matter what.

However, he also defended Zhou Yaqing twice: "The fourth sister is actually a supple person, she doesn't have any ideas, what the second uncle and second aunt say, she did it." She didn't mean to marry a bad person, she couldn't help herself. The county lord and the second girl Xie also asked Brother Xiao to convey an apology for me, and asked them not to blame my fourth sister. ”

Xiao Rui smiled: "It's all over." The county lord and Miss Xie knew in their hearts who was right and who was wrong, so how could they blame Brother Zhou's sisters? I hope that the girls of the Zhou family can find a good relationship as soon as possible after their filial piety, and don't make wedding clothes for others. ”

Zhou Yazheng knew in his heart who he was hinting at, and he was very sure of this: "Brother Xiao, rest assured, our Zhou family has now drawn a clear line with Mrs. Xu, and will never communicate again." "Anyway, they won't have a long room, the third room is also completely disgusted with Mrs. Xu, the fourth room is even more dissatisfied with her, and the second room may have a more ambiguous attitude, but they will soon move to the capital, far away from Mrs. Xu, not afraid that they will continue to collude.

Xiao Rui caught a glimpse of Master Zhou walking over quickly, so he didn't say anything more, politely said goodbye to the Zhou family father and son, and then turned around to lead his horse and walked towards the Xie family next door.

The porter of the Xie family opened the door to greet him as early as when he walked into the street, and finally waited for him to enter the house, relieved, and couldn't help but roll his eyes at the concierge of the Zhou family.

However, the concierge of the Zhou family didn't care about the color, because the masters of the Zhou family quickly boarded their respective carriages and drove out of the gate of the Zhou family. He had to give them out one by one, and his heart was empty. He was one of the subordinates who was arranged to stay in Beiping to watch the house, even if he was not sent out of the master's house, he was always uneasy in his heart. The host's family is gone, and I don't know when I will come back. In this huge city of Beiping, he no longer has anything to rely on. After so many years of pride, he found for the first time that he had no confidence in the face of the porter servants of other people's houses on this street! He can no longer raise his chin high in front of others and dictate, but will be reduced to the one who swallows his anger. This kind of grievance makes people panic when they think about it.

When will he return to his master and continue to be a proud servant?

The carriages of the Zhou family drove out of the house one by one, lined up in a long row, the first car had already driven through the entire street in front, and half of the carriage had not yet gone out. Such pomp and circumstance shocked many neighbors to come out to watch, admire, and then whisper a few jokes. In any case, the Zhou family, the former behemoth, finally left Beiping City, not to mention the residents on this street, even if it was the officials of other yamen, or the small people who made a living in the market, they had to be relieved.

There were also many people on the Xie family's side who ran to the gate to see the excitement, but the masters of the Xie family did not move. First, the family education is like this, and secondly, the Zhou family is not completely down, but they just want to go back to their hometown to guard the system, and the pomp is still very sufficient, what is there to ridicule? The Xie family has also experienced a low ebb, thinking about their own state of mind, they no longer have the mood to watch other people's homes lively.

However, Xiao Rui came to invite his fiancée - and the rest of the Xie family to go out of the city for a spring tour, which was spit out by the young masters and girls of the Xie family. He came late, and after being delayed by the Zhou family for more than half an hour, the time was even more urgent. Seeing that it's lunch time in a few hours, where else can they go on a spring outing at this time?! I'm afraid that I just got out of the city and didn't see a few mountain views, so I had to rush back, and the meal couldn't be delicious. What's the point of such a spring outing?

Xiao Rui explained to his future mother-in-law, Wen, and his fiancée, Xie Mulin: "To the west of the Baishi Bridge outside the Xizhi Gate, there is a Zizhu Courtyard, which is a Guanyin temple built in the early years of Yanwangfu. When the concubine was alive, she would go there every year to escape the summer and live there for a few months. The scenery there is very good, but there are few tourists, and it is very quiet. Now that the Jishuitan Wharf has been repaired and the river outside the city has been dredged, you only need to take the waterway by boat, and it will not take long to reach it. The princess had already taken the county lord to settle down in advance, and the houses were all ready-made and clean. Let's just go over, let's just stay in Zizhu Courtyard for one night tonight, how many views can we not enjoy tomorrow? If you like, you can stay there for two days. There were no outsiders there, just the two of us. Tomorrow, my father-in-law will take a break, and it is good to go for a day of leisure. ”

Wen was a little surprised: "Zizhu Courtyard? I've heard about it, but I've never had the chance to go and see it. This time, the princess must have taken the county lord to pray for blessings, right? Wouldn't it be too disturbing for our family to pass by? ”

Xiao Rui smiled: "It's okay. If the prince is free, he may also spend two days of leisure. The father-in-law went with him, just so that he could be a companion with the prince. ”

Wen hesitated. The invitation was a bit sudden, but she was really tempted.
