Mrs. Zhu asked someone to show Ma Laishun a seat and pour tea, and her mood calmed down a little, so she asked him carefully when the Shao family would leave and when they would arrive in Beijing? Have you reported to the Qinyong Mansion?

Ma Laishun replied: "The little one came with Shao Xing, I came to this house to report the news, and he went to Shao's house to report the news." When we left from Meizhou, my wife said that we would have to pack up for another five or seven days, and it was estimated that it would take as little as seven days or more than half a month to enter Beijing. ”

Mrs. Zhu was so happy, her daughter A Luan went to work abroad with her husband less than five years after she got married, and she traveled to several places, and now she can finally return to Beijing again.

Mrs. Zhu has not seen her daughter for almost six or seven years, and the last time Shao Tianzi came to Beijing to report on his work, because the youngest son Shao Song was young and the road to Jianzhou was far away, Ah Luan could neither come to Beijing nor bring his son into Beijing, so he missed it.

I thought I'd see you next year at the earliest, but who would have thought I'd be able to see it before half of this year.

And it's a constant residence, which can be regarded as a surprise.

Mrs. Zhu's heart was full of joy, and she was not sleepy when she arrived. Ruyi knows that she can't rely on the old lady's temperament, and now she is supported by a lot of energy, and she will definitely be tired in the future.

"Ancestor, you have to recuperate well now, and when your aunt and grandmother come back with a few cousins, you can leave them to talk for three days and three nights." Ruyi said with a smile.

Mrs. Zhu has always been willing to listen to Ruyi's words, and she is in a happy mood, so she naturally follows the advice and says with a smile: "However, Laishun has just entered Beijing and traveled all the way, so he should have rested earlier." ”

Ma Laishun was afraid that the old lady would be tired, so he quickly got up and said with a smile: "It's late at night, the old lady should rest early, and come back to greet your old lady when she turns around." ”

Mrs. Zhu asked Ruyi to seal twenty taels of silver to Ma Laishun, but Ma Laishun was so panicked that Ma Laishun did not dare to take it.

Mrs. Zhu said kindly: "This is not just a reward for reporting the news, you have served the girl's family with all your heart and soul over the years, otherwise Ah Luan would not have been able to send you to deliver the letter." Take it! It's almost the Duanyang Festival, buy some mugwort leaf cakes for the elderly and children at home to eat. ”

Ma Laishun knelt down and kowtowed to receive the reward, and followed the maid out.

Wei Yimi and the others also got up to leave, and when they left, Mrs. Zhu still took Wei Yining's hand and said, "Five girls, you go back tonight and think about it, what do you want, come tomorrow morning and tell your grandmother, but if your grandmother has it, you will definitely be rewarded!" ”

After a few people came out, the sky was already full of stars.

Wei Yiwan and the twin daughters were like eggplants beaten by frost, and today in front of Mrs. Zhu, they were already officially torn their faces with Wei Yining.

I thought I would be able to take her off the horse, but I would have thought that there would be something to come.

They only felt that Wei Yining was really lucky, but she had solved the right dream by mistake and won the favor of the old lady.

Wei Yimi felt that Wei Yining still had some ability, so she asked, "Fifth sister, how did you find out that the little aunt's family would return to Beijing based on the old lady's dream?" ”

Wei Yining smiled lightly and said: "The old lady dreamed of a yellow rooster, I thought that yellow is gold, since ancient times, the Son of Heaven would set up a golden rooster on the rod to show auspiciousness. Therefore, this golden rooster can refer to the will of the Son of Heaven to summon foreign ministers back to Beijing. So I made a bold guess, but I didn't expect it to be accurate. ”

"Then how do you know that the messenger will enter the house on the first day of the fifth month?" Wei Yimi was also puzzled by this.

"It's nothing, the edicts to return to Beijing were issued in the first half of the year, and the edicts to degrade and move out of the country were issued in the second half of the year. Meizhou is far away, and it is impossible to delay until June. Coupled with the dream that the old lady had, I thought that it would never take more than half a month to fulfill it. ”

In fact, Wei Yining's words were all prevarications, and the reason why she was able to deduce that Shao Tianzi's family returned to Beijing from Meizhou was based on two details that were not clear to others.

A few months ago, when she and her widowed mother and weak brother returned to Beijing from Lao Linghe, they encountered robbers. First, the Wang family fell ill, and secondly, in order to find the whereabouts of his younger brother Hongan, Wei Yining lived with his mother in the Fengsi Station 200 miles away from the Lao Ling River.

But his mother died in a few days, but fortunately, Yicheng was a generous elder who helped Wei Yining take care of the Wang family's funeral.

In the two months that the Wei family sent someone to answer, Wei Yining took the initiative to do some chores in the post station.

During this period, a team of people came from the capital, claiming to be going to Lao Linghe to inspect border affairs. As a result, these people went for more than half a month, and the old Linghe general Chen Huwei returned to Beijing. It turned out that someone had replaced him and became the new General Lao Linghe.

Wei Yining knows that the major events of military aircraft cannot be easily known to the outside world. Therefore, the transfer of army leaders in the Great Zhou State was carried out in secret, in case someone knew about the planned rebellion.

After she came to the capital, she first guarded filial piety in Suxin'an, and often went to Wangchun Mountain in front for a walk.

At the end of March, she saw a group of people bidding farewell at the Fuyun Pavilion at the foot of Wangchun Mountain, and said that she was going to Meizhou to inspect military affairs.

This was a common thing, but the expressions of the people who were sent off showed reluctance.

Wei Yining thought that if he was just inspecting military affairs, he would return to Beijing in two months at most, why was he so reluctant?

There is only one reason why this is the case, that is, he will stay in Meizhou for a long time, so he should not be to inspect military affairs, but to take over military affairs like the team that went to Lao Linghe.

According to the itinerary of these people, Wei Yining roughly estimated the time for handing over military affairs, and finally concluded that the person who reported the news would also enter Beijing in early May at the latest.

She won Mrs. Zhu's favor because of this incident, and of course there was an element of luck in it.

Mrs. Zhu asked her to interpret her dream, which was equivalent to giving her the opportunity.

But even if Mrs. Zhu doesn't have this dream, Wei Yining also has a way to help the old lady "predict" this happy event.

For other people, of course, Wei Yining didn't need to explain the mystery here, she was happy to let these people not see through her.

She wants to firmly establish herself in the Wei family, and she wants to avenge her family.

This is why she did not follow her mother's last wish to go to her uncle, but insisted on returning to this cannibalistic Zhiyong Mansion.

She didn't believe that her honest and loyal father would do such an inhumane thing, nor did she believe that her brother could be infected with smallpox during exile, and she didn't believe that the mother and son would encounter robbers without anything.

Someone must be behind all this.

After nightfall, the Zhiyong Mansion was like a silent monster, and Wei Yining, who was dressed in light clothes, walked among them, like a wandering ghost.

She wants to use her own strength to lift the dark curtain that has fallen in this house for many years, and dry all those dirty sins into the sun to comfort her deceased relatives.

"It's just getting started, so there's no rush." Wei Yining told himself in his heart.
