They left the next day, but Xing Guan couldn't leave.

Cuihua Niang originally planned to let Cuihua follow Xing Guan to Youzhou, but the army escorting the grain would not let Cuihua follow. The Lan family was reluctant to take the emerald flowers. This son-in-law was reluctant to get married, and he will definitely not come back after leaving. In the end, the county order came forward and let Xing Guan stay in Ruyang County, and when Zeng Mao and the others returned, they took Xing Guan and Cuihua away.

Of course, it would be better if Xing Guan didn't leave, and leave his military registration in Ruyang County.

Xing Guan naturally refused, so he had to stay. Zeng Mao was the commander of this trip, and he agreed that Xing Guan didn't have to follow this part of the journey, everything was easy to do!

Xing looked at the distant grain team, his face was as black as a pot stove!

Cuihua Niang knew that the two of them didn't have a round house last night, but it didn't matter! There is a wedding presided over by the general and the county order, and this kid is the son-in-law of the Li family! In the future, who will dare to look down on them, the orphans and widows of the Li family.

With the fifty taels of silver given by the Lan family, Cuihua Niang straightened her waist.

Cuihua touched the gold bracelet in her hand, before the wedding yesterday, a fat aunt came to the courtyard, claiming to be Aunt Hao, the cook of the Lan family. She gave her this thin gold bracelet.

Aunt Hao said that Xing Guan did not have a family, and if she followed him back to the capital, she could use this gold bracelet to rent a good yard, and she didn't have to live with a large family. Aunt Hao said a lot of things in the capital, which made her yearn for it very much.

Zheng Wu rode his horse and followed in the middle of the procession. He couldn't figure it out, so he rode his horse to keep up with Zeng Mao.

"General, there's something I don't understand." Zheng Wu moved the horse slightly closer to Zeng Mao and whispered.

Zeng Mao was in a bad mood and didn't make a sound.

Zheng Wu stubbornly continued: "Actually, yesterday's incident, we can all see that the Lan family designed Xing Guan. But the villain doesn't understand, how could Xing Guan fall in love with the eldest girl of the Lan family? Is it the recipe for the Lan family? ”

Zeng Mao snorted: "The Lan family's recipe is what he can think of?" They have all crossed the clear path before the nobles. Even if Old Madam Lan had other recipes in her hands, how could it be his turn? "The Lan family still has so many children and grandchildren, why should they cheapen this ill-intentioned son-in-law?

"Actually, Miss Lan is older than Xing Guan, and she is still ...... "She was suspended!" With Xing Guan's appearance and ability, he can't find the daughter of a powerful person, at least find the daughter of a wealthy businessman, and the dowry is enough to supplement the family! The eldest girl of the Lan family is not beautiful, and she can't give birth to a son, what are you marrying for?

Zeng Mao: "After all, I don't have enough knowledge!" He valued the Lan family's property eighty percent, and wanted to take advantage of the Lan family's power. "I have to say that this hand is well played. Being able to approach the Lan family when they were down and down moved her.

Along the way, Xing Guan's performance can be described as good, but I don't know where Old Lady Lan doesn't look down on him, and she can see the problem.

If Lu Yingfang was here, she would definitely look up to the sky and laugh: "For the first time, I felt that the system was still somewhat useful. ”

Probably the Lan family's hand is really powerful, and it has really deterred the officers and soldiers who are holding the grain, and even the horsemen in the car dealership are quiet, and they don't dare to be lazy.

In mid-November, when they finally approached Youzhou City, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

The gate of Youzhou is not high, and it is not like the tall and shiny city wall that is piled up straight and straight as seen on TV, but it is actually a yellow rammed earth city wall. Lu Yingfang looked through her memory, the city walls of this era were all like this, and there were no bricks at all. How did she think that such a trapezoidal wall seemed to be convenient for the enemy to climb up!

After walking on the road for more than two months, I finally arrived, and the big stone in Lu Yingfang's heart fell to the ground. Fortunately, the capital is also built in the north, otherwise it would take at least half a year to walk from the south to the north!

Before they had walked a few meters forward, Lu Yingfang heard Qiu Da's voice outside the carriage, and she was overjoyed and lifted the curtain of the carriage.

Qiu Da had already run to her carriage and nodded at her.

That's it!

Only then did she feel relieved.

"Old lady, the fourth master will come tomorrow. The fourth lady was already waiting at the residence. Qiu Xiaoxiao said loudly by the side of the carriage.

Before Lu Yingfang left the capital, she had already written to Lan Ronghe that the Lan family was going to Youzhou. The fourth child originally worked in Ganzhou, but later he was demoted, and he was arranged in Cangzhou, close to Guanwai.

It can be said that as long as there is a war, the fourth is in danger.

Lu Yingfang felt that it was better to settle in Pingyang Mansion, the capital of Youzhou. Even if you want to see the fourth, it is a day's journey. It's easy to get around the capital and it's safer in the downtown area.

At that time, she had already settled all the debts, but it was inconvenient to carry the silver ticket in the letter sent to the post station, and she also mentioned in the letter that she could ask him to rent a house in Pingyang Mansion. After all, buying a house in the capital still costs a lot of silver.

Listening to Qiu Da's meaning, Lan Ronghe's affairs are relatively busy here, and he is still not free in Cangzhou. After receiving the letter, he immediately asked Li and the servants to come to find the house first.

It is not easy to buy or rent a house in a hurry. Moreover, the Lan family has a large population, and it is difficult to find a house that is too small to live in, and a house that is too big to find.

Halfway through, when Lu Yingfang asked Qiu Da to deliver the letter, she included three hundred taels of silver tickets in the letter, meaning that this was the rent.

Lu Yingfang asked Lan Ronghe not only to avoid the feast, but also asked him to pay attention to where the craftsmen were better, and a lot of trivial things were arranged.

Counting the days, Qiu Da waited at the city gate with his servants. Now that the servants had gone back to report the news, Qiu Da led them to the place where they lived.

After walking through the bustling area, and walking for another half an hour, I arrived.

As soon as Lu Yingfang and the others got off the carriage, they saw Li and the others waiting at the door.

Li is not yet twenty-five years old, she is a Jiangnan girl, charming and soft, and the whole person is like a lady who comes out of a picture scroll. The original owner didn't like this daughter-in-law very much, first, the Li family's maiden family was not obvious, and the scholarly family said it well, but in fact, there was no power, and it belonged to the clear stream in the court. Second, Li's appearance is not pleasing to the current mother-in-law, giving people a sense of "looking like a fox".

This marriage was decided by the old marquis, and she could only pinch her nose and admit it.

But from modern times, Lu Yingfang likes this kind of ancient lady very much! After all, there is an ancient trend on the Internet, and she has also taken a lot of costume art photos before. The people of the Lan family are not good-looking, except for the Qian family, the Zhao family and the Sun family are really average.

"Grandmother." The third young master of the Lan family is really six years old, wearing a royal blue round-necked robe, with fair skin, two eyes like black grapes, and two front teeth missing when he laughs, which is particularly cute.

Lu Yingfang took Dingzhen's hand: "Dingzhen is really tall, he must usually listen to his mother's words, eat and sleep well, and grow tall." ”

This is the first time that grandparents and grandchildren have met.

After Lan Ronghe married his wife, he took his wife to office. After Li gave birth to a child, because the child was young, he did not travel long distances to bring it back to the capital.

Xu was praised for the first time they met, and he was really happy: "Yes, Zhen'er is the most well-behaved, and my father also said that I have grown taller." ”

The Li family was also happy in her heart, and Lu Yingfang's words were tantamount to praising her in disguise. She kept saying that his grandmother liked him in front of the children, suggesting that he had come up to get close to his grandmother. Fortunately, this child is solid and not afraid of life.

The Lan family was deprived of their titles, and they were also affected by a lot of impact in Youzhou. The husband's official position was demoted to the third rank in a row, and the noblewomen who had a good relationship with her in the past avoided her.

Her husband asked her to arrange a place to live, but she was still very worried. After all, the Lan family is used to living in a good house, and the house they found in a hurry is not to their liking after all. The old lady is a very fussy person and is not easy to get along with.

When Qiu Da came back with the letter, her heart was in place. One letter is addressed to her husband, and one letter is addressed to her.

Not only did the letter contain a silver ticket, but her mother-in-law also wrote that the requirements for renting a house were not high, so she should not be embarrassed, and it was a big deal to rent two courtyards to live separately. Living separately is equivalent to splitting the family, but I didn't expect my mother-in-law to even write this. It seems that this time my mother-in-law came over, her temperament should have changed a lot, and she should get along better! She didn't forget that when she served tea on the second day of the wedding, her mother-in-law looked at her with critical eyes.

After a long journey, everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they arrived at their destination.

Li asked the maid and the mother-in-law to take everyone to their respective courtyards to rest.

It was probably because the family meeting the night before entering the city had already been vaccinated, and everyone knew that it would be difficult to find a suitable place to live in the short term, so not only could they not dislike the residence, but they also had to express their gratitude to the Li family.

So the Li family was originally worried that they would dislike the dilapidated and small courtyard, but what they said was unexpected.

Zhao's sister-in-law used to be Mrs. Hou, but now she warmly held Li's arms: "It's hard work brother and sister, you see that you have lost weight, and we have made you tired as soon as we came." ”

This made the Li family so frightened, her mother-in-law brought the Lan family here, how dare she say that she was affected by this? This is definitely a pit dug by the sister-in-law for herself.

Sun leaned over with a smile on his face: "Wanniang is really tired to be alone, you don't have to worry about us, you can sleep peacefully tonight." ”

Wan Niang was her nickname, and the first time Sun called her that, she felt her scalp tingle.

Although she doesn't like her mother-in-law to take people away, she can't talk about it on the surface, if her husband knows, then it's okay? Li shook his head, just about to explain.

Wanting also said flatteringly: "Grandmother said, the hardest thing now is the fourth aunt, you have been tired this month." ”

Li knew that neither of her concubines was a fuel-efficient lamp, and if they said she was tired, she might hear something else. Now that it comes out of Wanting's mouth, her mother not only said in the letter that she was hard, but also said the same to everyone?

The Zhao family has dealt with many noble ladies, and when he saw Li's expression, he knew that she had misunderstood just now.

Zhao said with a smile: "Mother said, the fourth brother is in Cangzhou, and when the matter on your side is over, you can go back to accompany him, and you don't usually have to live in Pingyang Mansion with us." ”

Li was stunned.

Sun also spoke: "Mother said that although Pingyang Mansion and Cangzhou are not far away, you can't let your child always not see his father. When you have time during the holidays, you can come up to live for a while, and it is important to take care of the fourth child nearby. ”

Lee was moved. I just received the news that my mother-in-law was coming, and she had insomnia and nightmares for several days. She is very afraid of the kind of high-ranking days, every move is watched, and if she is not careful, she will be used to teach. If it weren't for the old marquis, she wouldn't have been able to follow her husband to Cangzhou.

The days in Cangzhou are too comfortable, there is no mother-in-law, and there is no mother-in-law stuffed into the room. You don't have to worry about it in the morning and dusk, you are in charge of your own house, not to mention how comfortable it is.

Now, listening to her mother-in-law, she can still go back to Cangzhou and don't have to live under their noses.

Li finally showed the most comfortable smile in more than a month: "Mother still cherishes me, I will take care of my husband." ”
