Duanmu smiled and came to Duanmu Xian to sell his goodness, "Grandfather, how is it?" I didn't take your pair of paperweights for nothing! ”

Duanmu Xian was amused by the little girl and praised: "That's! Our four girls have always been reassuring! ”

The three grandparents talked and laughed, and yesterday's haze was swept away.

Duanmufei took the opportunity to ask his grandfather for a can of Longjing, and then returned to Zhanqing Courtyard with Duanmujun.

June 19 is the day when Han Xing and Li Tingyou return to the door, and after that, it means that relatives can communicate normally, so early in the morning of June 20, Duanmu Fei couldn't wait to go to Xiangyun Lane.

She went to ask the elders of the Li family to say goodbye first, and Mrs. Li also guessed that she was here to play with Hanxing, and after a few words, she called the sisters to play.

The newlywed Hanxing combed the woman's hair bun, revealing a smooth forehead, she wore a magenta butterfly wearing a carved silk gown, reflecting her dark eyes as bright as jewels, and the fair skin seemed to be shining, with the bride's unique bright and charming.

Even if she didn't ask, Duanmu Fei knew that Hanxing had a good time these days, and she didn't spoil her mood by Chaolu's substitution.

Han Xing affectionately took Duanmu Fei's arm and walked in the direction of the small garden, and as he walked, he complained coquettishly: "Cousin Scarlet, you are too uninteresting!" ”

"You entered the palace the day before yesterday and did such a 'big thing', and you didn't tell the palace, it was only yesterday that the mother concubine told the palace, and the palace only knew."

Han Xing looked at Duanmu Fei with burning eyes, not so much complaining, but actually praising his cousin's might.

"You are newly married, how dare I bother you with such a 'little thing'?" Duanmu smiled and waved his hand, "Besides, didn't I come today?" ”

Han Xing gave Duanmu Fei a look of "count you through", and finally couldn't hold it back, and laughed out loud.

"Scarlet cousin, you did a beautiful job!"

"This palace also went to the North Five Institute yesterday to see the five emperor sisters of this palace!"

"The North Five Institutes are really worthy of being a cold palace, shabby enough, this palace looks worse than where the palace maids live, Yang Gonggong took her two palace maids elsewhere, and the five palace sisters can only do everything by themselves now, so she should be allowed to do more things, so that her mind can be moved to a crooked place......"

Hanxing pursed his lips and smiled happily, not sympathetic to Chaolu at all.

According to her, Chaolu completely deserves it, and her current fate is very happy!

While speaking, Han Xing took Duanmu Fei and entered through the west gate of the garden.

It's June, and the lotus flowers in the pond are at their most delicate, and the lotus fragrance is bursting.

The two cousins went to the small flower hall by the pond and sat down, and immediately a maid and wife set up an ice basin in the small flower hall, and gave the masters chilled sherbet and melon and fruit snacks.

The sherbet was cold and cold, pouring from the throat into the abdomen, and the cool feeling suddenly permeated the whole body, and Duanmu felt that the heat was swept away all over his body.

"Cousin Hanxing, this bayberry sherbet is really delicious!" Duanmu Fei praised, and asked Congzhen to add her a cup.

Han Xing thought so, "This is the sherbet made of bayberry just sent from Minzhou, the chef at home has good skills, it is said that this sherbet is an exclusive recipe, and the palace will let the cook copy a copy for you." ”

Duanmu Fei responded with kindness, thinking that Hanxing would live.

"Is it the cook that Aunt Guifei sent you?" Duanmu asked casually.

Han Xing smiled beautifully: "It's the cook sent by my grandfather from Minzhou, and she is especially good at making dim sum." The grandfather she said was of course Duanmufei's maternal grandfather Li Hui.

Saying that, Han Xing thought of something, and changed his words: "Yesterday, the mother concubine said that she would urge the Inner Court Division to prepare the princess's mansion for the palace as soon as possible, but the palace thinks it's good to live here." Besides, the eldest sister also lives in King Jian's Mansion. "She doesn't want to live in a princess's mansion either.

"It's the same everywhere, just be happy." Duanmu scarlet drank the second cup of sherbet with a smile.

Han Xing felt that Duanmu Fei really won her heart for whatever she said, no wonder they were cousins, and now they are still kissing!

Han Xing softly tilted towards Duanmu Fei, very happy, "Cousin Scarlet, this palace will be free in the future, and I don't have to be detained in the palace for classes anymore, will this palace go to you tomorrow to play with you?" ”

Duanmu sipped the sherbet and nodded.

Congzhen listened to it and was speechless for a while, and exchanged a look with Yingluo on the side: Even if her princess is married, she still hasn't changed, and she is bent on playing. It's no wonder that the concubine Niangniang broke her heart for her, afraid that she would not be comfortable living in the Li family.

However, Mrs. Li and Mrs. Li are estimated to return to Minzhou soon, in fact, where their princess lives is indeed the same......

Fortunately, the horse master does not dislike it!

Since the master of the horse recognized the bride of the fifth princess at a glance, several palace maids such as Congzhen and Linglong were convinced by this new concubine, and their own princess was indeed a good blessing!

Duanmu swallowed the sherbet in his mouth, and suddenly shook his head again: "Not for the past two days." Cousin Hanxing, the second uncle and the third uncle have been moving recently, and there is a commotion in the house, so you should come back in a few days. ”

Han Xing also remembered the last time he heard Duanmu Guifei mention the separation of the Duanmu family, but Duanmu Guifei didn't say much at that time, just mentioned it. Now listening to Duanmu Feiyi, Han Xing asked curiously: "Mother said that my grandfather went back to his hometown a few days ago to divide the family?" ”

The separation of the family has become a foregone conclusion, and Duanmu Fei did not hide it, and said it one by one, including Duanmu Heng's succession to the long house.

Han Xing was also a little surprised by the succession, and even forgot to drink the sherbet in his hand for a while.

"After that, Cousin Heng and Cousin-in-law will still live with you! That's nice! Han Xing came to a conclusion, and then asked casually, "Second uncle and third uncle, have they started to move?" ”

"Fourth uncle, they will move tomorrow. The second uncle and the third uncle are still cleaning up, and it should take a few more days. Duanmu said.

Although the dust has settled on the separation, after all, it is not to sweep people out, so there is no rush to urge people to leave.

Because Duanmuxian explained that each room could take away the people in his room, Duanmujun also deliberately sorted out the deed of sale, and asked the housekeeper to hand it over to each room, and said that if anyone else in the house wants to take it away, as long as you are willing to do it, it will be done.

The other rooms were tossed like that when they saw the second room returning to Beijing from their hometown, they all knew that it was amazing, and after returning to Beijing, they all silently packed up their things.

As the first of the four rooms moved out of the Duanmu family, the mansion in Beijing gradually knew about the Duanmu family's separation, and there was an uproar.

There is a saying that parents are here, and there is no separation of families.

Now that Duanmu Xian, the head of the family, is still alive, he will divide the family for his children and grandchildren, saying that it sounds good, for the sake of his children and grandchildren, and it is unpleasant to say, that is, the Duanmu family is afraid that there are a lot of dirty and unsightly things, otherwise how could they divorce their wives first and then split up their families!

There are also good people who want to inquire, the fourth and fifth masters saw that the two brothers had suffered losses, and now there is no Shoufu Mansion to rely on, so they learned to be obedient, they unified the caliber to the outside world, only said that their father was hardworking, and hoped that they could stand up, prop up the lintel, and only say good, not bad.

Such a style has made these good deeds more curious, and they feel that there must be something greasy in them.

On June 23, the Erfang family also moved out, and someone immediately noticed that Duanmuheng, the eldest son of the second room, did not leave with the second room.

Without waiting for anyone to explore, Duanmuxian took the initiative to say about the succession, which once again caused an uproar in Beijing.

But when it comes to Duanmu's family room, taking into account the "little ancestor", most people don't dare to talk about it on the surface, and in private, it is inevitable to discuss a few words after tea and dinner in their own homes, and they all feel more and more that the Duanmu family is not in harmony, and some people are curious about what happened to the second room that should be the heir, so they will be disgusted by Duanmu Xian and "driven out" of the house.

Someone ran to Xiao He's to inquire again, but this time Xiao He's didn't move like a mountain, no matter how anyone asked, it was a high-sounding and beautiful word.

The separation of the Duanmu family only caused a few ripples in the capital, and then it disappeared.

By the time the other houses of Duanmu's family moved out one after another, it was already June 26.

Duanmu Mansion also calmed down.

Sometimes, when Duanmuxian came back and saw the empty mansion, he inevitably felt a little embarrassed, after all, who doesn't like a full house of children and grandchildren, and the house is prosperous.

He could only tell himself in his heart that it was better to just split up the family now than to wait for them to cause trouble in the future and ruin the family!

There is a give-and-take.

For two days in a row, Duanmu Xian's mood was a little depressed, until the evening of this day, after Duanmu Heng came back from Guozijian and came to see him alone in the outer study.

"Grandfather, I've thought about it carefully, and I don't plan to go to Huaizhou." Duanmu Heng said straight to the point.

There was silence in the room.

At this time, the sky at dusk had already darkened for most of the time, and an octagonal palace lamp was lit in the room, and the lights jumped in the lampshade with the wind.

Duanmu Xian couldn't help but be stunned, "Ah Heng, you ......"

He understands the temperament of the eldest grandson, and has always been stubborn, he has repeatedly persuaded him several times before, and the eldest grandson has decided to go to Huaizhou, how could he suddenly change his mind?

Duanmu Heng has never been a person who has an idea for a day, and he made this decision with difficulty after some careful consideration.

"Grandfather, I've thought about it, the eldest sister and the fourth sister are going to get married, if I go for another five years, you will be the only grandfather in the house." Duanmu Heng stared at Duanmu Xian steadily, Zhengsedao.

Since he is the eldest grandson, and since his grandfather intends to hand over this family to him, then he also has to shoulder his due responsibility.

And......

Duanmu Heng's gaze fell on Duanmu Xian's sideburns.

Under the light of the orange candlelight, the white hair on Duanmu Xian's sideburns was sandwiched between the black hair, which was shocking.

Duanmu Heng recently suddenly noticed that there were more gray hairs in his grandfather's sideburns.

Also. Over the years, my grandfather, as the first assistant, had to worry about the political affairs of the court, and as the head of the family, he had to support the family alone, and my grandfather was also a human being.

Duanmu Heng suppressed the sourness in his heart, calmly met Duanmu Xian's wise eyes, and said: "Besides, grandfather, you also said that the current imperial court is in ruins, and a series of new policies will be implemented, and being an official in the capital is not as wasteful as in the past. I don't have to go to Huaizhou to do something. ”

After a pause, Duanmu Heng said again: "Grandfather, don't worry. Since I have decided to stay in Beijing, I will definitely study hard. ”

Duanmu Heng secretly swore in his heart that he would live up to his grandfather's years of careful upbringing in the next scientific examination.

Duanmu Xian looked deeply at Duanmu Heng, who was only a case away from him, and burst into a hearty laugh.

"Good, good! It's good that you've figured it out. Duanmu Xian said yes repeatedly, brushing his beard, radiant.

Duanmu Heng didn't go to Huaizhou, and the happiest person was Duanmu Xian.

He knew that the eldest grandson would change his mind, partly because he was old and for filial piety.

His eldest grandson has always said less and done more.

Because of this good news, the melancholy in Duanmu Xian's heart was swept away, and he lifted his spirits again, and said earnestly to the eldest grandson: "You don't have to worry about me when you study, and other grandfathers don't say much, just do your best, don't force yourself too much." ”

"You are still young, even if you don't pass the next subject, there are still many years to ......"

“……”

Duanmu Xian said, Duanmu Heng should all go down, after this day's long talk, he studied more energetically, and the candle in the study was often lit until midnight.

The other people in the mansion naturally looked at it, and Ji Lanzhou, Duanmujun and Duanmufei often asked people to send him supper and tonics.

The rest of June passed peacefully, until the first day of the seventh month, when the imperial history impeached Duanmu Xian for not repairing, and his granddaughter acted recklessly in the palace, regardless of dignity and inferiority, and imprisoned the five princesses in the North Five Institutes.

In the face of the menacing impeachment, Duanmu Xianyun was light and did not take it seriously at all.

He is a small first assistant, how can he be qualified to support the little granddaughter, the little granddaughter's backstage is big!

Moreover, the fifth princess almost ruined her granddaughter's marriage, and the four girls did a beautiful job.

Duanmuxian didn't pay attention to the impeachment of Yushi at all, and after the day of the resignation, he talked to Duanmufei and Duanmujun sisters about Xu Mingzhen with great interest: "Lord Xu just arrived in Beijing today. ”

Before Duanmu Fei and Duanmu Jun could react, Duanmu Xian added: "It's Ah Yan's maternal grandfather." ”

"I haven't seen you for more than ten years, and Lord Xu is also old! The years are unforgiving, thinking that he was also a personable and beautiful man back then, Queen Xu was five or six points like Lord Xu. ”

It was a great fortune that the Xu family was able to withdraw from the court safely, who would have thought that one day the Xu family would be able to return to the capital in a beautiful manner, and there would be a day of re-emergence!

Once a son of heaven and a courtier!

Duanmuxian stroked his beard slowly, quite emotional, his eyes flashed slightly, and his thoughts seemed to have returned to a long, long time ago.

Whether it is Duanmu Fei or Chu Qingci in the past, he has never seen Xu Mingzhen, to put it in his heart, Duanmu Fei is still a little curious in his heart.

She couldn't help but ask curiously, "Grandfather, don't Lord Xu and Ah Yan look like each other?" ”

Saying that, she felt that it was wrong again, so she vetoed herself: "It shouldn't be like it." "If Mu Yan was like Xu Mingzhen, maybe the emperor would have seen some clues.

"......" Duanmu Xian sighed in his heart that "the woman is not left".

Duanmu Xian didn't hear Duanmu Fei's two words, and said cryptically: "The Xu family can help a lot when they come back this time." ”

Now Mu Yan's strength is in the army, and Lord Xu has entered the sixth department, which can give Mu Yan some help in terms of Wenchen.

Military generals are needed to build a country and defend against enemies, but in governing the country, the monarch must rely on civil servants.

Duanmu Fei said this to Duanmu Xian, his left ear went in, his right ear came out, his thoughts were still on Mu Yan, thinking: Lord Xu returned to Beijing, Ah Yan must be very happy.

The corners of Duanmufei's lips curled slightly, and she smiled brightly.

"......" Duanmu Xian really couldn't tell from the little granddaughter's smiling face whether she understood what she meant, but the little granddaughter has always been extremely smart, so she must have understood!

After taking two sips of hot tea, Duanmu Jun next to him put down the teacup and proposed: "Grandfather, Zhenzhen, in two days, after the Xu family settles down, we should also hand over the post." ”

Duanmu Xian stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Sister Jun, you are still thoughtful. With the relationship between the Xu family and Ah Yan, the four girls should indeed go to say hello earlier. ”

Especially Mu Yan's parents died, for him, in addition to Anping, his relatives are probably only the Xu family.

"I'll start a post tomorrow." Duanmu smiled and responded, even if Duanmu didn't mention it, she had this plan in her heart. She also had to send a message to Ah Yan.

Duanmu Jun thought for a while, and then asked, "Grandfather, do you know who the Xu family came this time?" "Since you are going to visit, you must prepare some suitable gifts, so that the Xu family can't feel that they have lost their manners.

Duanmu Xian really knew, straightened out his thoughts, and said, "Lord Xu, Mrs. Xu, that is, Ah Yan's maternal grandfather and grandmother. ”

"And their second son Xu Shicheng and his family, as well as a pair of children left behind in the long house."

Second, is there a monthly pass?
