Chapter 374: This Pit Is Actually Pretty Good
The next day, Wen Yan and Huo Yixiao returned to Swallow Hutong.
On the day of leaving the cabinet, a flowing water banquet was placed in the alley, which was lively and lively, and a lot of work was left after the end.
Mama Hu is notoriously diligent, with people, and quickly cleaned it up.
The round countertops and chairs were folded and sent back to the shop where they were lent, the bluestone brick floor was cleaned, and the water was washed again and again, three times before and after, and there was no smell of wine and food in the alley.
After these chores were done, she followed the Cao family to the neighbors and thanked them one by one.
After being so busy, the young couple came back today, and the alley was as neat and clean as before.
Even the new snow added that night has been swept away so as not to affect the trip.
Huo Yixiao got out of the carriage and helped Wen Yan again.
The Cao family came to meet them at the door.
Behind the door panel, Wen Hui, who couldn't bear to sit well in the room, poked her head out and winked at Wen Yan.
She also reached out two fingers, one forward and one backward, back and forth, and then put her fingers together and clasped her wrist.
Wen Yan understood.
This means that she will step on the pedals and walk slowly step by step when she gets out of the car now.
Before, they all jumped straight out of the car.
Cao Shi didn't have eyes in the back of her head, but she knew Wen Hui too well.
Holding Wen Yan's hand, Cao said: "Don't pay attention to Sister Hui'er, like a monkey, let her sit and wait in the back, you have to come along." ”
Wen Yan bent his eyes and smiled.
Huo Yixiao stepped past the doorrail, bypassed the shadow wall, and entered the front yard.
The curtains and tables set for the agenda at the time of welcoming the relatives were all torn off, and the small courtyard was restored to its original appearance.
Huo Yixiao glanced at it, a little unfamiliar for a while.
On second thought, it is indeed unfamiliar.
Although he used to come to find Wen Yan often, he almost always went over the wall, and directly entered the West Cross Courtyard.
Those who are walking through the gate, in addition to welcoming relatives, only send Ebony back once.
The two went to see Mrs. Gui first.
The old lady was still in good spirits, sitting cross-legged on the Luohan bed, and her eyes narrowed with a smile.
She only gave birth to a son, never raised a daughter, I don't know what other mothers-in-law look at their sons-in-law, the more they look at it, the more pleasing it is, but when she looks at this grandson-in-law, there is no time to be dissatisfied.
On the background, on the appearance, on the future......
Of course, there are people outside of people.
But when it comes to the sum of several things, Huo Yixiao is already the best choice.
If this is not completely satisfied, it is because her wife is too greedy.
At the banquet the day before yesterday, which of those old sisters dared to be angry with her?
The granddaughter married well, the eldest grandson was promoted again, and the two grandchildren under him looked like they could study again, and Mrs. Gui had a straight waist.
In the final analysis, they are all Gonghou Bofu that were sealed at the beginning of the dynasty, and they have all watched the ups and downs for so many years.
No matter how hard the plaque is, it will be dragged down by unscrupulous descendants, but if the children are outstanding, they will be low for a while, and there will always be a time to raise their eyebrows.
Marriage can be heart-to-heart, and civil and military can fight for fame.
Old Madam Gui raised three Jinshi sons, and with this ability, she can face the ancestors and ancestors with her head held high.
She insisted on it for a few more years, and then put on a plaque of the Hou Mansion, and waited until the three grandsons also had fame, not to mention too much, the younger two could also take the Xiucai test, and then ponder Sister Hui and Sister Jing, even if the old lady closed her eyes, she walked majestically and highly.
Mrs. Gui received a gift from the young couple.
She didn't want to accept Huo Yixiao's courtesy, after all, she was the prince.
But Huo Yixiao walked smoothly, and Wen Yan was like a person who had nothing to do, so the old lady didn't avoid it.
Huo Yixiao was invited by Wen Zifu to go to the front to speak.
Wen Yan pinched Wen Hui's earlobe and grinned, "I'm tired by clothes." ”
Wen Hui couldn't stop laughing.
Old Madam Gui sent everyone away, leaving only Wen Yan to speak.
"Entering the palace yesterday, what did the emperor and the concubine say?" The old lady asked.
Wen Yan didn't answer in a hurry, reached out and took a piece of dim sum and chewed it carefully.
Mama Wu's craftsmanship is so likeable.
Mrs. Gui didn't urge, she just pushed the dim sum to her, and her smile was still kind: "Eat slowly, and no one will rob you, you like it so much, just let people come back and get it, and the kitchen is happy to make it for you every day." ”
Just as the Cao family understands Wen Hui, Wen Yan also knows the old lady's temperament.
The old lady said "eat slowly", but in fact, "hurry up and say after eating".
Wen Yan understood, but she was as kind as flowing: "That's great, I'll eat another piece, I'm late in the morning, I'm afraid I'll wait at home, I haven't eaten a few bites of breakfast." ”
Mrs. Gui: "......"
This bad kid is on purpose!
are all married, and they don't know how to let the old people worry.
Wen Yan ate while sorting out his thoughts.
She knew what the old lady wanted to ask and hear.
After finishing it, she ate it well, and said with a smile: "The emperor didn't say anything, but I rewarded the jade, and I and Xiao Ye were together." ”
Old Madam Gui looked at the jade that Wen Yan tied around her waist, it was a good thing.
Wen Yan said again: "Niangniang, I said a few more words to me, saying that Xiao Ye has also had difficulties in the past few years, so let me be more considerate and tolerant." ”
"That's as it should be!" Mrs. Gui thought so, and also felt that it was appropriate to start the topic from here, so she said, "Uncle is three years older than you, and he is about to reach the crown, and it is not too early to be a father at this age, but you are still younger." The matter of birth and upbringing is unfair to men and women. The old woman doesn't say much, you can discuss it yourself, especially listen to the mother's meaning. After all, the identity of my uncle ......"
She had to make her clear.
Otherwise, Sister Yan will go around in circles with her.
Wen Yan stretched out his hand, took another piece of lily cake, closed his teeth, and took a small bite.
Slowly, the old lady lost her temper at all.
Wen Yan ate pastries and tasted the old lady's words.
The key point is not difficult to grasp, the old lady cares about the crown and identity, as for whether to give birth or not, whether to raise or not, that is a matter of later.
"I'll tell you the truth......" Wen Yan leaned forward, his voice extremely low.
Old Madam Gui subconsciously stepped forward: "You say." ”
Wen Yan said: "I discussed this matter yesterday. There is no movement in His Royal Highness's mansion, if I am in front, I will really become a target, so I will simply take advantage of my poor health to recuperate for two more years, and Doctor Ji will help me look at the prescription, if it is okay for the body and the medicine I am now not flushed, I will drink it like this. ”
Old Madam Gui chuckled in her heart.
She is such a shrewd person, and she immediately straightened out the "target".
After being silent for a long time, the old lady said slowly: "It's also a reason, the mother's consideration is appropriate." ”
Old Madam Gui didn't know the reason why Huo Yixiao didn't recover his identity, but she was considered by the emperor, and she had to take care of the Shen family.
And Imperial Doctor Ji looked at the prescription and made the old lady think that the prescription was given by the concubine.
Wen Yan smiled and took a sip of tea.
Message is still important.
Look, wasn't the old lady taken into the pit by her in just a few words?
This pit is actually good.
You don't need to rush to the fire, you don't have to worry about it, you just need to wait and see.
Mrs. Gui is suitable for health.
