Chapter 71: The Capital
"You don't have to worry about Li Da's residence, my uncle asked me to help build a few rooms, but I think, the yard has burned like that, but how can I live? It just so happens that there is a vacant house in my house, and there are only two people left in the Li family, so let's live in my house first. ”
Qing Niang agreed with a smile, in fact, Li Da couldn't live for long, his task was to help grow winter wheat, and it was more convenient to live in his uncle's house. Saying goodbye to the old man, she went straight to the field and watched them harvest the buds.
It's been more than a year since I've been here, although it's a small mountain nest, but there's no intrigue, and when I return to the capital, I don't know how many Longtan tiger's dens are waiting for her.
The bud valley was taken back, and the mule cart was hired overnight, and Liu Song and his son escorted them to leave first.
Three days later, Qing Niang entrusted the house in the town to the care of her second aunt and followed her uncle's team to the capital. said that it had been a long time for nearly three years, but only she knew that this was the first time she had gone.
Originally, I wanted to discuss some things with Si Xiu, but I heard Liu Song say that although there was no war on the border, the atmosphere was still very tense, and the soldiers were not allowed to leave the camp, so they did not say goodbye in person.
They still have cooperation, but this is far away from the mountains and rivers of the capital, and there is probably no chance to see each other again. And I also returned to the deep courtyard, and then I wanted to go out at will, I am afraid that it would be a little difficult.
The speed of the march was very fast, she was in a carriage, but it was still bumpy enough, even the fragrance of books was vomiting and spitting, and she secretly replaced the water of the bamboo tube with the water of the stream, which was slightly better.
When eating at the post station, she poured a cup of tea for her grandfather, and put a drop of elixir in it, this is her and her brother's backer, and she must live a long life, she has thought about it these days, and she didn't think of what kind of warmth her grandmother had for her, let alone the father.
"Although Wen Jin has a short enlightenment time, he has probably learned a lot when he was at home, so Mr. praised him for his good homework, after all, he is almost ten years old, grandfather, go back and let him try it, it doesn't matter if he can't pass."
"You mean Wen Jin went to take the boy's exam? How did I hear that your second brother Wenzhu is also going to end up this year, so let's go together, what does it matter if it doesn't work? ”
"Please tell my father, I'm afraid he doesn't have confidence in Wen Jin."
"Hehe, your father is old-fashioned, I'll say, don't worry, everything has a grandfather."
He used to hate this granddaughter very much, he didn't raise his head when talking to people, and his voice was low and hummed with mosquitoes, but the old woman said that she acted recklessly and arrogantly.
But this time I went back to the village, listened to the words of the second brother, and went to see the waterwheel again. This kid is smart, how much effort he put into repairing the waterwheel, and he didn't donate it to the clan.
Hahaha, he couldn't be more satisfied with this, the old woman was afraid that he would make up for his relatives in his hometown, and he wouldn't give silver taels every time he came back, but Sister Qing gave him enough face, no matter how capable he was, he was also a member of the Su family, how could a person forget his roots?
Three days later, the tall gatehouse was sighted, and the procession had reached the gate of the city. Grandfather told them to go back to the house on their own, and he wanted to hand over the soldiers to the barracks, but he still sent his retinue Su Hu to follow.
"When you return home, you take their sister and brother to see the old lady and tell her about the situation." If there is no Su Hu order, I am afraid that the old woman will misunderstand them.
Listening to her grandfather's words, Qing Niang sneered in her heart, she has also figured out in the past few days, this grandmother was originally from an official family, because her grandfather had military exploits, she was married by her father, and she was originally very unwilling.
After Su Yun came to Feng Bo, he was able to live a good life. So the little things in the family depend on her, and my grandfather rarely asks.
Qingwenbo Mansion is located in the middle of the southern city, there is still a little distance from the imperial city, this is the house given by the emperor that year, the main body is only three into, however, the garden is not small, the east and west roads have also built houses, and there are five or six partial courtyards.
Qing Niang's yard is in Liyuxuan by the pond, with only one bright and two dark three main rooms, and two partial rooms. The yard is not big but it is elegant, with a few bamboo poles and a bunch of orchids.
The bad thing is that it is close to the pond, and it is cold to death in winter, not to mention the humidity in summer, and the mosquitoes are also very strong.
Wen Jin originally lived in the side courtyard of the main house Ronghua Hall, and this time when he returned to the house, Qing Niang didn't plan to let him live in it again, so she told Su Hu to go slowly, and strive to go back soon, and grandpa would be able to return to the house soon.
No matter how slow you go, there will always be a time when a vermilion gate appears in front of Qing Niang, and the little guy who holds the door sees Su Hu, thinking that the uncle is back home, and hurriedly goes to Zhang Luo to open the gate.
But when he saw Su Hu getting off the carriage with Wen Jin in his arms, he stopped and waited, and then Su Hu said:
"Uncle has gone to the barracks, and he will come back later." At this moment, even the side door was not opened, so let Qing Niang and them go to the corner door.
Qing Niang looked at those little guys coldly, turned around and said to Su Hu:
"Let's wait for grandfather, he should be there soon." Su Hu knew that Qing Niang was angry, and he himself was just an entourage, what could he say?
Suddenly, the side door was opened from the inside, and a person limped out, glared at those few angrily, turned back to Qing Niang and said:
"Miss is tired, take the little master in first, and wait for the uncle to come back, and then send these minions down."
"Thank you, Uncle Shan, we went all the way with Xiaohui, this kid is out of luck." Mama hurriedly stepped forward and said with a smile, and when Shanbo heard the praise of his son, his eyes narrowed when he smiled.
Qing Niang took her younger brother to salute him, but Shanbo hurriedly avoided it and let them in.
She glanced back at the door a few times, and walked in without saying a word, she didn't have much luggage, Su Hu unloaded the threshold and drove the car inside, although there were not many things, but they were too trivial, and they were too ugly to unload in the outer courtyard.
When she arrived at the second gate, Qing Niang said to Su Hu:
"You go and tell your grandmother first, let's go in and pack up and go by ourselves." Su Hu took the order and went.
Mama commanded to unload all the burdens, she would admire the girl very much, when she made a big cart, let the old man take them away, their belongings, there are really not many, and these people can also be moved.
The mother-in-law on the second door pouted, this eldest lady is shabby, and the fourth lady is going to live in another courtyard, and there is more luggage than these!
"Girl, I'll ask my mother-in-law to call a soft sedan chair, there is still some way to go."
"Mama, you still have luggage, what is this road? Let's go, settle down, and go and say hello to my grandmother. ”
Su Wenjin also hugged a burden, he has been practicing martial arts for a long time, and his strength is much greater. At this time, after listening to his sister's words, his face couldn't help but darken, and he was very repulsed by Ronghuatang.
"Brother Jin, you have to remember, when we return to Bofu, we can't be as casual as before, if there are any emotions in our hearts, don't bring them out on our faces."
With this face, the grandmother must have nothing to say when she saw it, and the good stepmother explained a few more words, and their sister and brother were convicted.
What happened at the door, someone had already reported it to Du Shi, she didn't know that her uncle was coming back today, and the whereabouts of Qing Niang's sister and brother were even more unknown, and she was very annoyed when she heard that people had entered the courtyard.
