Chapter 217: Calm Before the Storm
Before, the husband and wife had been together for so many years, and Su Zhongshi had never had the slightest affirmation of Mrs. Su in his heart, but now that it was time to separate, Tan began to hesitate, but because of Yang Fujian's insistence, he had no choice, so he could only grit his teeth and write down those words against his heart on the paper.
Although Xu Rulie was watching here, he was just watching, he would only defend the Soviet Union in his heart, and he only loved the house and Wu to Lord Su, not to mention today's events, he didn't feel that Lord Su had anything to lose, so he stood aside and didn't say a word.
Yang Fujian took the book of harmony and departure in duplicate in Su Zhongshi's hand with satisfaction, and ignored Su Zhongshi, who was lost and depressed, only said hello lightly, and quickly left here, not wanting to stay for a moment.
The news of the Yang family's return to Beijing in the Yang Mansion spread all over the capital in one morning, and Mrs. Su was not needed soon, how did they bother to clean up? In the past, under the Yang family, people have all consciously gathered back.
When Yang Fujian returned home, he handed over the book of separation to Mrs. Su with a smile, and suddenly an old man burst into tears, walked in with steady steps, and knelt down respectfully to the person on top.
"Little Lao'er Liu Fu, it can be regarded as looking forward to Hou Ye, the son is back, and the little old man is for Hou Ye. The eldest lady pleases Ann, I have seen the son and the little lady. ”
If it weren't for the sudden sight of Liu Fu today, Mrs. Su almost forgot that there was such a number one person, she looked at Su Jiao with a dumbfounded face, gently took her hand, and explained, "This Fu Bo is the former housekeeper of our family, and then my brother and they went outside the Saiwai and dismissed the family members, I haven't seen him for a long time, speaking of which, Fu Bo can be regarded as watching your uncle and me grow up." ”
"Huh," Su Jiao nodded knowingly, looking at Liu Fu with a little more respect, "Then Steward Liu can be regarded as an elder." ”
"The little lady has won the award, this is all raised by the Hou Ye and the young lady, and the little old man doesn't dare to be it. Since Xiao Lao'er left the Yang family, he went to the home of Master Shangshuma of the Ministry of War to help, but he didn't expect to come back. As soon as Master Ma heard that Hou Ye and Gongzi were back, he immediately called the little one over, so that the little old man could have the opportunity to see Hou Ye and Miss again. ”
"Although Brother Ma is polite and polite, he is really a sincere person." Yang Fujian listened, and couldn't help but nod with emotion, "Then in the future, there will be more Lao Fubo to help take care of my house." ”
"Hou Ye tormented me, this should be what I should do, then Hou Ye and the young ladies sit here for a while, and I will ask someone to clean and prepare lunch."
With tears streaming down his eyes, Fauber raised his hand to wipe away the tears as he spoke, and went out to make arrangements. Xiao Huai'an had just seen the layout of the Yang family outside, and when he entered the door, he just happened to pass by Fu Bo who went out.
He didn't care, and after entering the door, he thought that Su Jiao and Mrs. Su were there, so he didn't speak, but Zhang Yuge's brother Zhang Shengge couldn't sit still, and when he heard that the Yang family father and son were back, he rushed over to congratulate him.
The Yang family had no friendship with the Zhang family and the Earl's Mansion before, so it was better to rely on him to come over and make love this time.
"Congratulations to the Marquis of Zhongyi and Yang Gongzi on their glorious return to their hometown, and I would like to congratulate my father Zhang Song and the Earl of Yong'an on behalf of my father." Zhang Shengge still looks like a white-faced scholar, but his gestures are full of martial arts pride.
Before, Su Jiao heard that the Yang family was coming back, so she specially wrote a few letters to briefly explain what had happened during this time. Yang Fujian looked at him again and looked at his temperament when he spoke and acted, not only looked him up and down with appreciation.
"Okay, Su Rili saw that Master Zhang liked the most cultural and historical sites, and his son Dao, who never wanted to be raised, has the blood of a young man, but it is really stronger than the generation, Ren'er, you have to work hard."
Yang Fujian looked at it, laughed and said, and patted Yang Huairen on the shoulder twice.
"Yes." Yang Huairen agreed, and his face unconsciously felt a little more embarrassed.
It's funny, Zhang Song is so cautious and careful, but his son Zhang Shengge is so straightforward.
And Yang Fujian is arrogant and generous, but his son Yang Huairen has added a lot of calmness and seriousness, which is exactly the same as Zhang Shengge's temperament.
"Thank you for coming to visit today, why don't you stay and have a light meal together." Yang Fujian said, Mrs. Su also stood up with a light smile and greeted, now that she is free, she is much quieter than when she was in Su Mansion before.
Hearing this, Zhang Shengge noticed at a glance that Yang Huairen, who was the same age as him and had the same temperament, the two of them were looking at each other, and suddenly heard Mrs. Zhang's words, he quickly came back to his senses, smiled and waved his hand.
"No need, I came in a hurry today, and I didn't prepare any gifts, so why am I embarrassed to come back to eat. In order to show Mrs. Xiao's help to my sister a few days ago, as well as to wash the dust for Yang Hou's reception, tomorrow at the Yipinxiang Restaurant on Zhuque Street, please come to the restaurant, this is an invitation. ”
As he spoke, Zhang Shengge took out two invitations from his sleeves, the invitations were brown and gold, and there were some silver chips on them, as dark patterns, and on the vacant position in the center, there were words written in dark black ink. The words are flamboyant and flying, but they vaguely show a bit of delicacy.
"Huh." Su Jiao glanced at Xiao Huai'an's hand, and immediately guessed that Zhang Shengge must have been away from home for many years, and he had never practiced calligraphy hard, so he was embarrassed to use it to write, so he specially asked Zhang Yuge to help.
From this point of view, it is no wonder that Zhang Yuge wants to be so well-intentioned and filial piety to his parents, he really has such a playful and unreliable brother.
Su Jiao couldn't help but smile, and was a little stunned to take the invitation from Xiao Huai'an's hand, and after taking it, he raised his eyes to look at Zhang Shengge, "Thank you Zhang Gongzi for your kindness, in fact, those things are just a gesture, not enough to worry about, but it will bother your mansion to break the bank." By the way, I don't know how Yuge's body is, but is it okay? ”
"Zhang Yuan, the owner of Yipinxiang, is a relative of my family, but he just has an empty day to express his heart to the ranks, which is not enough to worry about. Yuge has been fully recovered for a few days, and I am missing Mrs. Xiao's tightness, and I will come over with me tomorrow, and please Mrs. Xiao, Lord Xiao, don't forget it. ”
Zhang Shengge stood straight, and the smile on his face was very intimate. Su Jiao couldn't help but smile, but she didn't want to say this, but Yang Fujian and Xiao Huai'an's faces were a little hesitant.
"I'm really sorry, Yang Hou and I still need some things to deal with tomorrow, I'm afraid we won't be able to be there."
Xiao Huai'an said, the hall that was still very busy just now suddenly calmed down at this moment. Although Su Jiao felt a little disappointed, she didn't bother him much when she saw Xiao Huai'an always running back and forth in the past two days, and she was preoccupied.
Yang Fujian straightened his back, also a little embarrassed, and sighed lightly and said, "That's true, tomorrow is really not free, it's better to call Ren'er, Jiao'er and their young people to go, next time I Yang Mansion is the east, I will definitely personally apologize to Lord Zhang and the Earl's Mansion." ”
"Yang Hou is serious, but we also arranged in a hurry, we failed to inform Yang Hou in advance, then the next Yang Hou's family banquet, we will definitely not be absent, so we will leave today."
Zhang Shengge smiled and agreed, but no, because such a trivial matter hurt the harmony of the two families, Yang Fujian saw more and more appreciation in his heart, and glanced at him.
"Okay, that Zhang Gongzi go slowly, Ren'er, you go and send Zhang Gongzi off."
"Yes." Yang Huairen agreed, Zhang Shengge suddenly laughed, and the two young people hit it off at first sight and walked out together.
Su Jiao looked at this scene, and also felt the joy of everyone, now he has completely changed the original ending, and finally got rid of most of the bad things, and now he is finally calm, it can be said that everyone is happy.
But the deep sorrow on the faces of Yang Fujian and Xiao Huai'an that couldn't be concealed was really a bit of a bad scene.
Su Jiao puffed out her cheeks slightly, and wanted to ask what was the difficulty, but she also knew that if she asked Xiao Huai'an, she would not admit it, and if she admitted it, he would not explain, but it would make her unhappy, so it was better to wait and see what happened, maybe they could solve it by themselves.
Thinking like this, Su Jiao accompanied Mrs. Su to stay happily in Yang's house for a day, personally serving Mrs. Su to sleep in the courtyard where she lived when she was a boudoir girl in the past, and was ready to go back with Xiao Huai'an, but she didn't want Xiao Huai'an to just call Mu Hibiscus to send her home, and she would stay for a while.
Su Jiao turned her head and looked at Xiao Huai'an with suspicious eyes, and Xiao Huai'an simply didn't get noticed this time, obviously pretending that I was in trouble, but gritted her teeth and refused to speak, so angry that Su Jiao shook the curtain and really left.
Xiao Huai'an looked at his carriage with a helpless smile, gradually drifted away, returned to the daytime, and made an appointment to meet in the study, Yang Fujian and Yang Huairen had been waiting here for a while, under the dim light, there were complicated pieces of letter paper on the desk.
When it comes to complexity, it is not how bizarre the content on the page is, but the many oddities revealed between the lines.
"This is what we found in Nankang, and it is because of these things that we have to come back. However, it is also a shame to say that in Nankang for more than ten years, we have only discovered these clues in the last two or three years. ”
Yang Fujian sighed, and Yang Huairen simply divided the letter paper into categories and handed a pile of them to Xiao Huai'an to read.
The contents of these letterheads look more like they were copied, so they are a little unordered, but the more they look down, the more Xiao Huai'an realizes that something is wrong.
There are strange things recorded on paper, such as murder of goods, transportation of goods, and transfer of documents, all walks of life are recorded, but the most important thing is the handover between the two places recorded above.
