Chapter 561 Returning to the Capital
In the afternoon of this day, the sound of horses' hooves finally entered the capital in the warm spring sun.
Xiao Niu came to the capital for the first time, his little hand held the car window, his little eyes stared at the bustling crowd on the street outside, and said with a smile: "Godmother, there are so many people here, they are all wearing beautiful clothes." ”
After listening to Xiao Niu's words, Tong touched the top of his head and said lovingly: "This is the capital of the Great Yan Kingdom, and it is also the most prosperous city in our Great Yan Kingdom. ”
"Uh-huh." The little cow nodded, and then pointed to a magnificent pavilion in front of him with bright eyes and said, "Godmother, that restaurant is really magnificent." The calf recognized the words "restaurant" written on the plaque.
Shen Qian, who was riding on the horse, listened to Xiao Niu's words, and said with a smile: "Since Xiao Niu likes this restaurant so much, will I take you to the restaurant for dinner when the eldest brother has free time?" ”
"Big brother, let's eat at home! My little brother and I don't know how to drink, so we don't go to restaurants. ”
When the little cow heard that the eldest brother was going to take them to the restaurant for dinner, he hurriedly refused. When he left home, his grandmother told him that he couldn't go to the restaurant to eat casually, because the food in the restaurant was very expensive, and he wouldn't earn money, so he couldn't give his godfather and godmother any money.
Listening to the calf's words, several people laughed. Yilin pointed to the intersection in front of him and said, "The carriage will go all the way down this road, and we will get home." ”
The little cow was very happy when he heard the little brother say that he was about to go home. "When we get home, let Mother Wang cook food for us." Thinking of eating along the way, it was not as delicious as what was made at home, and the calf was even happier.
The carriage continued on, and knowing that it was almost home, the calf and Yilin muttered to each other. After a pillar of incense, the carriage finally stopped in front of the courtyard of the Xie family.
Linglong and Jade got out of the carriage first, and then helped Tong to get out of the carriage.
Tong stood in front of the courtyard gate, looked up at the two big hibiscus trees, and couldn't help but say with emotion: "It seems like yesterday when we left, but who would have thought that a whole year has passed since we came back in a circle." ”
"No, it's going by too fast." Mother Wang stood behind Tong and just said a word, when she saw the courtyard gate coming, Mu Nan walked out of the courtyard with a smile.
He walked in front of Shen Qian first and saluted: "Mu Nan has seen the fourth prince. ”
"No courtesy."
"Fourth Prince Xie."
After Mu Nan gave Shen Qian a salute, he gave a salute to the Tong family and Yiqing's sister and brother, and finally walked to Wang's mother's side and said, "Mother." ”
"Hey~" Mother Wang saw that her son, who she hadn't seen for a year, had grown a lot taller and his body was much stronger, and her heart was even happier.
Mother Wang was happy, but she didn't forget her serious business, and hurriedly instructed everyone to unload everything on the carriage.
The courtyard in the spring was breezy, and Yilin and the little cow got out of the carriage and went to their house.
As soon as the calf saw the furnishings in the house, he knew that this was the house where he and his little brother lived, so he wanted to take off his shoes and go to the kang, he was a little sleepy.
"Wait, I'll take you somewhere fun."
"Where?" Hearing that the little brother was going to take him to a fun place, the little calf was not sleepy.
"Let's go, in my sister's yard." After Yilin finished speaking, he took the calf's hand and ran to the backyard.
In the courtyard at the back, Ruyi was sorting out the things in the east house, while Lilac and Muxiang were moving the cages into the warehouse.
When Yilin ran over, he saw his sister standing in the courtyard, looking at the magnolia flowers blooming by the east wall.
"Sister, can we swing?"
"Yes. But be careful not to swing too high. After Yiqing finished speaking, she instructed Xiao Mao a few more words before letting Yilin and the calf go on the swing.
When the little maverick saw that the little brother climbed on the swing first, and beckoned him to go up too, he happily climbed up. But his little short legs were not strong at all, and he couldn't climb up on his own.
Xiao Mao wanted to carry him up, but the little cow refused to let him hug him, always thinking that he would go up if he tried harder, but he underestimated his little short legs.
Fortunately, at the critical moment, Yiqing picked up the calf and put it on the swing.
"Thank you, sister." The calf stretched out his little hand and wiped his forehead, only to breathe a sigh of relief, he was sweating.
"Are you sitting still?"
"Sit tight."
Yi Qing saw that the two little ones were sitting firmly, so she gently pushed the swing.
"Hehe, sister, push harder." The two little guys felt that their sister didn't have the strength to swing high enough.
"You two are too young to swing too high, that's not safe."
"Hmm." Although the two little ones were not very satisfied, they still had to listen to their sister's words.
At this time, Ruyi sorted out all the things in the house, and then came out and asked in a low voice: "Girl, the things in the house are all placed, do you want to wash up." ”
"Hmm." Yiqing answered and instructed Ruyi to take care of the two little ones, and she went in.
When Yiqing finished washing, she heard Tong calling them over for dinner.
went to the front yard, and Yiqing learned from Wang's mother that Shen Qian and the others had gone back to Bofu.
"The fourth prince said, he will take the time to come and see you tomorrow."
"Hmm." Yiqing also knew that Shen Qian would have to continue to be busy repairing the yard when he came back.
The Tong family discussed with Yiqing and went to Bofu tomorrow to visit the Ye family. "Sister Qing, you said that tomorrow my mother will visit your Aunt Ye in Bofu, which clothes are the most appropriate?"
"Mother, at this time, you still wear this jade-colored brocade spring dress."
"Well, it's still our sister Qing who has vision." After Tong finished speaking, he gently patted his daughter's hand again, and then said: "Ming'er Yilin and Xiaoniu follow me to Bofu, you can only stay at home by yourself." ”
"Mother, I'm not a child, and there are a few Ruyi them, what else are you worried about."
"Don't worry, mother."
The Tong family will visit the Ye family in the Bofu tomorrow, firstly, because of the etiquette, and secondly, they want to discuss with the Ye family about Sister Qing's dowry.
In the last letter Ye wrote to them, the furniture and everything were prepared for Sister Qing, which scared the couple a lot.
The furniture should be prepared by the woman's family. Generally, the man measures the size of the new house, and then sends it to the woman's house, and then on the first day or day of marriage, these furniture are carried into the man's house as part of the dowry, along with other dowries, and placed in the new house.
Yiqing saw that Tong's mind was wandering again, so she asked with some worry: "Mother~?" ”
"Mother is fine."
"Mother, don't worry, what kind of situation is in our family, my Aunt Ye knows better than anyone else, so you don't have to worry."
"Mother knows." Tong thought of his husband's instructions, and he had a plan in his heart.
