Lu Yan obviously didn't expect Su Man to be here, and when he saw her, he was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "Sister Man is also here." ”

When Su Man sees him now, he always thinks of Mrs. Su's sentence to hurry up and handle the family affairs, so the whole person will feel uncomfortable.

She slid off the kang slowly, stepped on her shoes and bowed to Lu Yan slightly, and without saying a word, she turned around and climbed onto the kang again.

Lu Yan didn't care, he only smiled and bowed to the Xie family.

Xie Shi waved his hand at the little girl on the side, and immediately someone moved a circle chair over, and Xie Shi looked at Lu Yan with a smile: "Brother Yan'er Why did he have the kung fu to come over today, and there are not many things in the yamen?" ”

Lu Yan sat down in the circle chair and replied with a smile: "The yamen is still like that, the prince is becoming more and more capable now, so those of us around us are more idle." ”

Xie nodded: "The prince is a good boy, and we all feel relieved that you are by his side." Xie Shi said, as if he remembered something again, and became even happier, "Speaking of which, Brother Che should have gotten the will to return to Beijing." ”

Lu Yan smiled on his face, and replied in a soft voice: "I came here this time to tell you that Your Majesty has made a decree to allow Brother Che to return to Beijing, and he will be able to return to the mansion when he comes for the New Year." ”

Xie Shi listened with his hands folded, and kept chanting Amitabha Buddha in his mouth: "Buddha bless, Buddha bless, he has been gone for a year, in my heart, I really can't live in peace for a moment." ”

Lu Yan was still smiling: "Now it's okay, this time Brother Che'er comes back, he must be able to stay at home for a few more days." ”

Xie Shi also smiled and nodded again and again: "Although a good man has ambitions in all directions, but as a mother, who doesn't want his children to be safe and sound." ”

Lu Yan also nodded with Xie: "Auntie, you don't have to worry, my senior brother is also very happy to hear that Brother Che'er is going back to Beijing, and he rode out of the city early this morning, saying that he was going to pick people back in person." ”

Xie Shi frowned a little disapprovingly when he heard this, and said: "Zhixing, this kid is too, this from the capital to Liaodong, all the way to the mountains and rivers, and unlike from the capital to Tongzhou, it can be reached in half a day, he is running back and forth like this, how can it be good to be tired." ”

Lu Yan didn't care: "Don't worry, senior brother was originally a person who couldn't stay, and he had been nested in my house for most of the year, I'm afraid that he had already stayed enough, so he just took this opportunity to go out for a walk." ”

Xie still felt that something was wrong, but Lu Yan said that the people had already left the city, and they had been walking for most of the day, and they were afraid that they would not be able to catch it back, so they had to give up.

Lu Yan sat for a while and saw that it was a little late, so he wanted to get up and say goodbye, but Xie insisted on leaving him for dinner before leaving, Lu Yan wanted to excuse himself, but saw Xie Shi with a straight face and said: "Now that Zhixing is not in the house, you will be alone when you go back." It's just a meal for the three of us here, and it's deserted, so it's better for you to stay and have dinner together, which is more lively. ”

Lu Yan couldn't, so he had to say yes.

The three of them walked out of Shaohuayuan and went to Mrs. Su's Compassion Courtyard.

Before the three of them entered the main room, they heard a hearty laugh coming from inside, and they knew that Chang was coming.

Xie opened the curtain with a smile and saw Chang sitting next to Mrs. Su, and the two were teasing Su Qian, who was already able to sit alone.

When Chang saw Xie and the others coming, he hurriedly got up with a smile and saluted Xie: "Sister-in-law is here." ”

Xie Shi bowed slightly to her, and saluted Mrs. Su unhurriedly, and then replied with a smile: "I heard your laughter from the courtyard, and I just told Brother Yan that the old lady and our mother and daughter have eaten together all day, which is strange and lonely, but it is lively today." ”

Chang helped Xie sit in the circle chair on the side, took her arm and said with a smile: "I just told the old lady, I didn't think when we were together, this time I moved away, I felt that everything was deserted all day long, and I can't wait to come over three times a day to eat." ”

Old Madam Su glanced at Su Man, who was teasing Sister Qian'er, and replied with a smile: "Anyway, the distance is not too far, you can come here if you like, can I still have a pair of chopsticks without you?" ”

Chang Shi chuckled when he heard this: "I remember what you said, don't think I'm too diligent in the future." ”

Everyone laughed again.

This dinner was very lively, and Su Man could see that Mrs. Su was also very happy.

After dinner, the people talked for a while, until the night was getting dark, and they came out of the courtyard of mercy.

Chang Shi walked in front with Xie Shi in his arms, and the two didn't know what they were muttering.

Su Man looked at the two people in front of him, and then at Lu Yan, who was half a step behind him, slowed down his pace, and walked side by side with Lu Yan.

"What's wrong with my eldest brother coming back?" Su Man asked in a low voice that only the two of them could hear.

Lu Yan was obviously not surprised that she would ask such a question, he just raised his eyes to look at the concubine in front of him, and replied quietly: "There will be something wrong with Xu, so I asked my senior brother to pick it up in person." ”

Su Man frowned slightly, and before she could ask anything, Lu Yan continued: "Don't worry, although senior brother seems to be in charge, there is no problem with this little thing." ”

Su Man shook his head and replied softly: "I can naturally trust Brother Luo's ability, but I don't understand, Big Brother is just going back to Beijing to get married, and he is in the way of others." ”

Lu Yan didn't turn her head to look at Su Man, but her voice was clear into her ears: "Maybe we all think too little, I always feel that there are some things we don't know, and it is precisely because of these things that the situation of the Su family is more and more difficult." ”

Su Man listened to his words and thought carefully about what had happened in the past few months, although there was some chaos in the house, no one dared to embarrass them, and their lives were still relatively leisurely.

So, where did Lu Yan's word "difficult" come from?

Lu Yan obviously sensed her doubts, chuckled, and said, "Things are not very clear now, although you protect your aunt and old lady at home, I am the one who does things outside the house." After he finished speaking, he seemed to be afraid that Su Man would think too much, and added: "When I inquire clearly, I will talk to you in detail." ”

Su Man saw that he had already spoken to such an extent, so he didn't want to ask any more, so he had to nod.

The two concubines who walked in front didn't know what the two children behind were talking about, Chang's mind was now full of things about the third room, so she seized the opportunity and leaned into Xie's ear and whispered: "Sister-in-law, have you heard about the things in the third room?" ”
