Forsythia squatted down towards Chu Yixian and saluted, and said with a smile, "Where is the big girl in a hurry?" ”
Outside, the night was already spreading, and there was still a faint noise in the banquet room, and even if the guests dispersed, it would take some time to clean up.
Chu Yixian had already stabilized his mind for a moment, and said with a smile, "I was going to see my grandmother, Sister Forsythia is here?" ”
"Oh! The slave maid is here to pass the word for the old lady, the old lady has been out for several days this time, and she is still not as solid as at home outside, so she wants to leave home tomorrow and let the eldest girl clean up first. ”
Chu Yixian's eyes flashed, but she didn't expect that she and her grandmother would want to go together. She originally thought that if her grandmother wanted to stay in Huayin for a few more days, she could go back to Tongzhou first, which would save a lot of trouble.
"That's the case, then Heqi and I will clean up first, and we won't bother my grandmother."
After sending the forsythia away, she urged the finch to pack her things. They didn't have a lot of things with them, but it was easy to pack them up.
It is rare for Mrs. Chu to come here, and now that she is old, it will be even more difficult to return to her parents' house in the future, so the Zhang family wants to keep her for a few more days. Old Mrs. Chu was hard-hearted and wanted to go back earlier, and Mrs. Zhang also knew that it was Chu Manyin's marriage that made her sad, and Chu Yixian made such a fuss in Zuixiang Building, and now the rumors outside are very ugly. Even if the Zhang family hid it from Mrs. Chu, with her experience for so many years, where could she not guess, this is for the reputation of her two granddaughters, so she wants to leave this place early.
Knowing the reason, the Zhang family naturally didn't want to stop it again. Mrs. Chu asked people to send a letter to the Lou family's business, Lou Jingmo got the news and hurried to say goodbye, and the three grandchildren of Mrs. Chu said goodbye to the Zhang family and left Huayin County in the afternoon.
accompanied by one more Zhang Liulang. But the Zhang family was not at ease, and wanted to let a nephew send their three grandchildren back to Tongzhou, Zhang Liulang recommended himself, saying that he wanted to make meritorious contributions, and Mrs. Zhang was so entangled by him that she had no choice but to allow it.
Zhang Liulang took on this errand beautifully.
It's just that along the way, Mrs. Chu's ancestors and grandchildren were a little dull for some reason, and they didn't eat the barbecue he was thinking about, but Zhang Liulang was still very happy to think, follow his cousin, and have a good relationship with his cousin, everything is possible, isn't it?
So just now, on the day she returned to the Tongzhou Mansion, Shi Nan also rushed back from Dingzhou, and she came back with two letters from General Chu, one for Chu Yixian and the other for Mrs. Chu.
Chu Yixian finished reading the letter to her first, a pair of eyes like black grapes had already lit up, and after taking the letter to Old Madam Chu, she went straight to Old Madam Chu's room to ask for a meeting.
After reading the letter, Mrs. Chu's eyebrows furrowed, a pair of quiet eyes were raised, and she looked at her slender granddaughter standing in front of her, "Sister Xian, do you want to go to Yanjing City?" ”
Chu Yixian's eyes flashed, he raised his head, and looked at his grandmother with a little trepidation. In this letter, my father must have explained the reason for letting her go to Beijing, but why did my grandmother open her mouth and ask her if she "wanted" to go to Beijing?
"Didn't you let Shi Nan go to Dingzhou? If it had not been for your first letter, your father and mother would not have made this decision. Old Madam Chu said in a light tone, what happened under her nose, she was not so confused that she didn't know at all, she just saw through it but didn't say it.
The eldest couple is very fond of this girl, if this girl wants to beg, naturally she is not afraid that her father and mother will not let go.
"Yes." Chu Yixian settled down, so he responded very simply, since his grandmother had seen it through, why bother arguing.
"It seems that your grandmother has detained you in the house in the past few years, and you have really been wronged, so you don't want to stay with your grandmother anymore?" Old Madam Chu seemed to be a little aggrieved.
The corners of Chu Yixian's mouth twitched, if it weren't for her reliving again, seeing her grandmother's appearance of shouldering the wind and rain when the Chu family was in trouble, knowing that she was a soft on the outside and strong on the inside, I was afraid that she would really believe it, but she couldn't let her grandmother really hurt her heart, so she sighed and said, "Grandmother, I have grown up, I am the daughter of the Chu family, I can't just hide under the big tree of the Chu family to hide from the wind and rain, enjoy the glory and wealth, but do nothing." ”
Old Madam Chu didn't expect to hear these words, she was stunned, and when she looked at Chu Yixian again, there were two more points of scrutiny in her eyes.
"My younger brother was born frail, and he was left in Yanjing City since he was a child, and now the eldest brother has returned to Beijing to marry, and he is married to the county lord of Pingyang County's family, I am afraid that I will also stay in Yanjing City for a period of time, I also entered Beijing, not to mention anything else, I can help take care of my new sister-in-law and younger brother."
"Moreover, my age is not young, although my grandmother, father and mother did not say it, but I also know that most of my marriage is also going to be in Yanjing City, in this case, I might as well go earlier, at least not so passive."
Old Madam Chu was really completely shocked by Chu Yixian's words, the eldest granddaughter is a boy's character, she is very arrogant, and she can't hold her breath, although she has no bad intentions, but she doesn't have a city government, if she can live in a small place and hide under their wings for the rest of her life, there is nothing wrong with such a temperament. But if she can't protect her and let her marry into some jackal's den, her character will kill her.
The eldest daughter-in-law also realized this, so she sent her back to Tongzhou, wanting to teach her more, but this girl was born with a strong temper, so many years, she always thought that there was no growth, who would have thought that she would say such a thing today.
Who would dare to say that she hasn't grown at all?
But I didn't think about what kind of pain Chu Yixian's growth went through before it was tempered!
After Chu Yixian said this, she fell silent, just standing there, and Old Madam Chu looked at her. In fact, with her father's letter, she was not afraid that her grandmother would not let her go, but if she could get her grandmother's support, she was still willing.
Old Madam Chu's eyes were sharp, with doubts and scrutiny, and she stared at Chu Yixian closely, but under such a gaze, Chu Yixian did not show the slightest discoloration, and was still at ease.
Old Madam Chu's gaze finally eased, with two points of relief and three points of surprise, she sighed and said, "Since you want to enter Beijing, you will go to Haosheng to clean up, and this time you will go to live for a long time, so you will have to pack everything up properly than when you went to Huayin before." The people you bring and the things you bring with you, you should have a good idea, and you don't need to talk too much about your grandmother. I just hope that you are as sober as you said, grandmother is waiting for you to find a family affair for yourself, and when you leave the cabinet in the future, grandmother will personally go to the capital to marry you! ”
Chu Yixian smiled and curled his red lips, with two points of rare playfulness, "That...... I thanked my grandmother for my good words first. At that time, my grandmother should not be reluctant to press the bottom of the box, and she must prepare a generous dowry for me. ”
