Chapter 10 General Su returns to Beijing

Listening to the bamboo courtyard is rarely so lively, usually ten days and a half months without outsiders to walk around.

Su Xiangsi's house was full of maids standing outside the house, and the babbling of the girls could be faintly heard under the porch.

The comfort of Zhao and King Yu worked, and Su Qing's complexion was not as pale and haggard as yesterday: "The third sister is recovering well, then I will rest assured, if something happens, I will feel uneasy." ”

Su Xiangsi could only lie on the bed and talk to them with her head sideways: "The eldest sister doesn't need to blame herself, the situation was also extremely critical at that time." ”

"The eldest sister is afraid that something will happen to you, and she is worried and worried, and she has not rested well. I was also anxious, so I brought some ointment, and girls can't leave scars if they love beauty. Su Yiling handed over a delicate jade box, and Rosin informed her, and stepped forward to take the jade box and put it away.

"My sister is willing to take out such a good thing, so my sister is welcome."

The maid opened the curtain and came in, stood in front of the beaded curtain in the middle, and bowed to the three girls: "Third Miss, Princess Duanyi sent someone." ”

Su Qing and Su Yiling looked at each other and were puzzled, Su Xiangsi was clear in her heart: "Invite someone in." ”

The well-dressed grandmother and a few subordinates came in with a ash wood carving box in their hands, and said through the bead curtain: "I've seen the third lady." The eldest princess sent the old body to thank Lili, and the third lady was better by the way. ”

Su Qing's eyes looked at each box, the smile on the corner of her mouth was a little stiff, and the difference in treatment was really obvious.

Su Xiangsi raised her hand and motioned for Mama to get up: "Why should the eldest princess be so polite." I also let my personal grandmother come, how can I afford it. As he spoke, he struggled to get up, and pulled the wound and screamed softly.

Su Qing hurriedly stepped forward to support her on the side, "Wow", Mama passed through the bead curtain, walked quickly to the bed, and helped Su Xiangsi to lie down.

"This can't be helped, the third lady quickly lie down."

Su Qing bowed slightly: "I've seen Mama." ”

Mama politely returned the salute, with a kind smile on her face, and looked a little alienated when she looked closely.

"This is my eldest sister Su Qing and second sister Su Yiling. Today, I came to talk to me to relieve my boredom. Su Xiangsi quickly took over the words, and Su Qing's words that had already reached her mouth could only be swallowed back into her stomach.

Su Yiling bowed and stood aside without saying much. She didn't see the alienation on Mama's face.

"Seeing that the third lady is fine, the old body will go back and make a good deal."

"Rosin, send Mama out."

Rosin should go down, and retreat with Mama to accept the gift box.

As soon as Su Xiangsi's words fell, Su Qing got up: "I am still busy in the house, and I will not disturb the third sister to recuperate as soon as I come out in the morning." ”

Seeing this, Su Yiling had no choice but to get up and leave. As for whether he is really busy or wants to chat with Mama Pan, I don't know.

The room was empty all at once, except for the crisp sound of beaded curtains colliding with each other.

Liu Wu put down the bed curtain, untied Su Xiangsi's clothes to reveal his smooth back, picked out some ointment from the medicine box, and gently wiped his fingertips on the wound.

"The medicine given by Mu Shizi is working so quickly, and it is about to scab over."

Su Xiangsi pursed his lips, the ointment he adjusted was more effective, and his medical skills were not to be put on display. In addition, catkins and rosin are well taken care of, the wound is no longer painful, and the range of movement is not large, and you can get out of bed and walk around, but you can't resist the two girls, so you can only lie on the bed honestly.

It was also expected that Mrs. Su would send a doctor, and face was more important to her than anything else.

The eldest princess Duanyi personally came to the door yesterday to thank her, and today she sent someone to give a thank you gift. Su Xiangsi's name can't be hidden.

Although the style of Princess Duanyi's carriage was simple but conspicuous, when it stopped at the gate of General Su's mansion, the news bombarded every corner of the capital. The luck of the two young ladies of General Su's Mansion is really not flattering.

Su Xiangsi nursed the wound for a few days, lying on the bed, the muscles and bones were sore, and after several begging, he pretended to be pitiful, and the rosin and willow catkins agreed that Su Xiangsi got out of bed for two hours.

The flavor of the New Year in the capital is getting stronger and stronger, and what is even more lively is that the news of General Su's return to Beijing is well known.

General Su Lao fought for several years and won successive battles. His prestige in the hearts of the people should not be underestimated.

This time, the people talked more about the mysterious third lady who stayed at home.

Nobles are all over the capital, and there are many later shows, so they will not be remembered if they are a little low-key. This third lady is interesting, she did not participate in the poetry and flower appreciation banquet, and she did not attend the palace banquet. I don't walk around the streets on weekdays, and everyone only knows his name but doesn't know who he is.

I don't know my appearance and character, I don't know how tall I am short, I don't know how thin I am, and I don't know how to know my talents. only knows that the marriage has not yet been decided, which makes people even more curious about Su Xiangsi, and besides, blocking the knife for the eldest princess Duanyi, this courage is incomparable to ordinary people.

Everyone is rumored that there is a father and a daughter, and it is even more widespread than Su Qing's time.

The delicate and jade-white hands opened the goose-yellow curtain, the girl was not like in the past lying on the bed humming and chirping, and the rosin brought hot water into the house and saw her young lady sitting in front of the dressing mirror with her shoes on. The spirit is radiant, and the joy is about to overflow the eyes.

"Grandfather, where are they?"

"Don't worry, miss, it's still half an hour before you get to the city gate." skillfully combed the complicated bun for Acacia, the young lady was happy early in the morning, and the mood of being a maid was also infected.

Su Xiangsi picked out a few magnolia hairpins with different postures and transparent ivory carvings and handed them to Rosin, it is rare for the young lady to have the heart to choose jewelry, and they were simple and casual in the past.

The begonia red dress is covered with a layer of soft moon-white tulle, which covers the color of begonia red with a little more charm, and it is more girlish.

Liu Wu came in and was amazed, I had never seen such a young lady, her facial features were soft and durable, and her eyes were watery and expressive.

Dressed up like this, in the show of wisdom, people are probably like this than Huajiao.

After breakfast, all the people in the bamboo courtyard have stood in the hall. Su Xiangsi gave detailed instructions on the details to be paid special attention to today, and each person was rewarded with broken silver.

The people were overjoyed and accepted the reward. The third lady is not treated by the old lady, so she has no sense of existence in the General's Mansion, but she is extremely generous to the people of Tingzhuyuan, and takes care of Tingzhuyuan in an orderly manner. It was deeply convinced by the people who listened to the bamboo courtyard.

When the subordinates reported that General Su and others had entered the city gate, Mrs. Su's house was already full of people from all rooms. Old Madam Su smiled red, and the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes deepened a little.

The hand holding the Buddha string trembled with excitement, and his body seemed to be leaning forward from time to time, and his mind had already flown out of Yi'an Hospital. Su Qing and Su Yiling chatted with each other and didn't listen to a few words.

The people present were inevitably a little surprised, the third master Su Mian accepted the ability of General Su to lead the army to fight, and the third sister-in-law, Su Mingjin, has studied military books since he was a child, and he has followed up the military camp since he was a child, and it is a matter of time before he takes command and leads the troops to fight.

Su Xiangsi received the news and didn't care if he got the Yi'an Courtyard to ask Mrs. Su for peace, so he went to the gate of the General's Mansion in advance and looked at it.

Hearing the sound of horses' hooves from far to near at the corner, looking for prestige, the eyes were the old general Su who was riding on a horse and was extremely majestic, followed by the three people with extraordinary bearing were Su Xiangsi's parents and brother. As soon as Su Xiangsi saw someone, he trotted forward with his skirt and greeted him.

When General Su saw the villain galloping over, his majestic face showed a trace of love, grabbed the reins and turned over and dismounted. The third granddaughter's clever strategy has long been taught, and this granddaughter with extraordinary insight has won his heart.

Su Xiangsi stood in front of him, straightened his dress, and obediently saluted General Su.

"Welcoming my grandfather home, it's been a hard journey."

The word "go home" Old General Su was a little moved to help Su Xiangsi: "Good boy, everything is okay at home?" ”

"It's all good, Si'er misses her grandfather very much." Su Xiangsi's beautiful eyes were splashing.

"Si'er is eccentric, don't you want your father and mother." The hearty and ridiculous laughter made Su Xiangsi laugh out loud.

Looking at the other three, Su Xiangsi's eyes immediately turned red, and she threw herself into Li Qinse's arms: "Mother, Si'er misses you so much." The voice was soft and glutinous, with a crying tone, which made Li Qinse's eyes red, as a mother, who wants to be separated from her child for two years and can't see each other.

poked his head out of his arms and felt the distressed eyes of his father and brother, and the warmth in his heart flowed through his body: "I also miss my father and brother very much." ”

Seeing that her daughter was well-behaved and sensible and had grown a lot taller, she couldn't help but reach out and carefully touch the top of her hair.

"Don't stand at the door, go in first."

After hearing this, everyone stepped into the mansion and walked towards Mrs. Su's Yi'an Courtyard. Although he was absent from the mansion for two years, the majesty of General Su was still there, and the subordinates did not dare to relax their respectful salutes.

General Su Lao fought on the battlefield, with a murderous aura on his body, and the people in the second room of the big house saw that their hearts rose in awe. He stood up and saluted. The old general Su took his robe and sat in the front, and only then did the room get up and sit back in his position.

At this age, when the children and grandchildren were full, I was relieved, and looked sideways at Mrs. Su holding her hand: "You have worked hard all these years." So that I can be stationed outside with peace of mind. ”

Mrs. Su was also famous in the capital when she was young, and now she is over fifty years old, and it is not difficult to see the demeanor of the year, and when she heard her husband's words, she was moved for a while, and a few tears fell from the corners of her eyes. After marrying him, a heart fell on him and the general's mansion. Her husband's affirmation and care for her only felt that everything was worth it.

Su Mian took his wife and children forward to give Mrs. Su a full salute: "It's the child who is not filial, and he can't be filial to his mother." ”

"Mother knows that you are for the war week, for the general's mansion. It's good that you and Jin'er can come back safely. ”

A look of disdain quickly flashed in Su Believe's eyes, and Old Lady Su did not like every lady in the mansion, but showed her mother the most obviously.

"My grandson misses his grandmother and siblings very much when he is away, and when he comes back, he brings small gadgets for everyone to enjoy, and I hope you don't dislike them." After Su Mingjin finished speaking, she bowed to the big room and the second room sitting on both sides.

Su Mingyuan and Su Mingrun didn't get along with him, and sat together and talked eloquently.

Others, you coaxed Mrs. Su and General Su out loud with your words, and their happy appearance warmed their bodies but not their hearts.

In the cold winter, it was inevitable that she was a little tired when she rushed back to Beijing day and night, and after sitting for half an hour, Mrs. Su sent everyone down to rest, and prepared a family banquet in the evening.

Listening to the bamboo courtyard as early as a few days ago Su Xiangsi ordered people to clean it carefully several times, when the group entered the house, rosin had returned to the bamboo courtyard and instructed the people to burn the charcoal fire, and the family of four returned to Li Qinse's house and was surrounded by heating, and the courtyard of Mrs. Su was lively, and it was not as warm as in her own house.

Seeing that the subordinates of Tingzhu Courtyard were working in an orderly manner, and the rules and etiquette were in place, he nodded a little proudly. As my daughter, she is also very good at taking care of the yard.

Looking forward to her mother waving away from the people in the house, Su Qing leaned her head on her mother's arms, and her tears could no longer be held back, one after another. Then he cried more and more fiercely, sobbing constantly, soaking Li Qinse's shoulders.

The envy, longing, and worry that I held back in my heart were all vented.

How could Li Qinse not know why her daughter cried so fiercely, knowing that she was ashamed of her daughter too much, and she couldn't control her tears, so she wiped her daughter's tearful face with a handkerchief.

"Don't cry anymore. Don't cry, our family is reunited. ”

Su Xiangsi cried enough, and was a little embarrassed. Holding Li Qinse's arm and lying coquettishly, there were endless words to be said.

After talking to my father and brother for a while, I was reluctant to go back to my yard three times in one step, but fortunately, I lived in the capital for a long time when I came back this time.

The family banquet is managed by the Zhao family, and the dishes and refreshments are checked by the Zhao family. Not surprisingly, General Su praised Dafang a few words.

The grandchildren are famous, General Su drank a few more glasses as soon as he was happy, and the three old men talked happily one cup after another, without the slightest intention of stopping.

Su Xiangsi smiled happily, drank a lot of greedy cups, and the smile became stronger and stronger, only he knew that his eyes were full of indifference.

It is said that Mrs. Su is well managed, and it is rare for a large family in the capital to have harmony. Now there are a few people at the table who have dirty secrets hidden in their hearts.

The emperor's relatives and relatives can raise troops to rebel for the position of the Ninety-Five, not to mention a small title in the General's Mansion.

At the end of a family banquet, Su Mian's father and son were just floating on the soles of their feet, and the people in the big room and the second room had already distinguished between the east and west, the north and the south.

Su Xiangsi didn't drink enough, and he didn't dare to drink anymore when he felt slightly drunk, and he was still a little dizzy after the cold wind blew on the way back. instructed Rosin Xiang to send sobering soup to Su Mian's father and son, so he didn't have time to freshen up, so he turned back and fell asleep.

Su Mian and Su Mingjin drank the sobering soup sent by their daughter, and praised their daughter several times to be sensible and considerate. Li Qinse's eyes scratched them helplessly.
