Duanmu Xian was also tired, he traveled all the way from the capital to Tongping Town, and he didn't rest after coming to the old mansion, so he didn't say anything more.

He waved his hand and sent everyone away: "Okay, you all go and rest, and we will set off for Beijing the day after tomorrow." ”

After that, the people in the third, fourth and fifth rooms returned to the old house from the side door of the ancestral hall one after another, and went down to rest.

After Duanmu Xian sent them away, he walked slowly towards the old mansion with Duanmu Jun, Duanmu Heng, and Duanmu Fei.

All of a sudden, the surroundings became much quieter, the sun set lower, and the sky was half bright and half dark.

"Ah Heng, after returning to Beijing, I plan to send several of your enlightened younger brothers to Donglin Academy." Duanmu Xian looked in the direction of the setting sun and said suddenly.

"......" Duanmu Heng looked at Duanmu Xian's side face in surprise.

Although Donglin Academy is not as good as Guozijian and the four major academies, it is also one of the very famous academies in Dasheng, of course Duanmu Heng has heard of it, but Donglin Academy is not in the capital, it is in Jizhou, and it is a day's journey from the capital.

Duanmu Heng vaguely guessed something, moved his eyebrows, and asked, "Grandfather wants his younger brothers to board in Donglin Academy?" ”

Duanmujun and Duanmufei also understood Duanmuxian's meaning.

The sisters looked at each other and thought it was a good idea.

"Not bad." Duanmuxian nodded in response, raised his head and rubbed his eyebrows, and the fatigue on his elegant face became even thicker.

When he moved the idea of splitting up, he had already made this plan.

His sons have grown up, become a family, and have children, all of whom have their own careful thoughts and calculations, and they can't be taught well, and now, for the future of the Duanmu family, he can only start with the upbringing of his grandchildren.

A few years ago, Duanmuxian had already let several grandchildren in each room move to the outer courtyard to study, and when he was free on weekdays, he would also take the test to teach their studies, and several grandchildren are now raising them well, their character is not crooked, and a few of them also have some talent for reading.

After splitting the family this time, the people in the other rooms will be separated to live, and he will naturally have a little helplessness beyond the reach of his grandchildren, he has carefully considered it, rather than letting his few unobtrusive sons take his grandson crookedly again, it is better to send his grandson to a better academy as soon as possible, and be controlled by the gentleman of the academy, so as not to be affected by the miasma of things in the family.

"Grandfather, you're a good idea." Duanmu Heng also nodded approvingly, quite a bit of the posture of an eldest brother as a father, "When the time comes, I will personally send them to Donglin Academy." ”

Since several cousins moved to the outer courtyard, Duanmu Heng, as the eldest brother, often has to pay attention to the studies and daily life of several younger brothers, and he knows a little more about them than Duanmu Xian.

The evening breeze at dusk blows, rustling the surrounding flowers and trees, and the sound of birds flapping their wings in the distance, making the atmosphere more peaceful and peaceful.

As Duanmu Heng walked, he talked to Duanmu Xian about several younger brothers in the family:

"Grandfather, the second brother is mediocre in reading, but he has some talent in arithmetic."

"The third brother and the fifth brother are smart and good at reading, but the fifth brother is playful and needs to be watched."

"The fourth brother and the sixth brother are a little naughty, and they prefer to ride and shoot on weekdays, and they don't like ......."

"Grandfather, since the fourth and sixth brothers don't like literature, why don't you let them try to practice martial arts? I think the fourth brother and the sixth brother have some talent in riding and archery, especially the fourth brother, who is much better than me in riding and archery at a young age......"

"Martial arts?" Duanmu Xian was stunned, raised his eyebrows, and showed a bit of thought on his face.

Although their Duanmu family has produced the "outlier" of Duanmulang, they still take reading as their way of life after all.

He didn't want his children and grandchildren to practice martial arts, but now that he heard Duanmu Heng say this, he began to carefully consider this possibility.

After all, there are so many grandchildren in the family, and not all of them are reading materials, and now that the family is divided, each room needs to have a man who can support the lintel, otherwise, the other rooms will only fall step by step, which is also contrary to his original intention of dividing the family.

Duanmu Fei also felt that Duanmu Heng's idea was good, and nodded in agreement: "Grandfather, why don't I find Ah Yan to find a master who teaches martial arts, and teach him first, right?" ”

As he spoke, Duanmu smiled wisely, his eyebrows crooked, "Perhaps, they will feel hard and would rather study." ”

Duanmu taught children to ride and shoot just for the six arts of the gentleman, for a few boys, learning to ride and shoot is like playing, which is very different from formal martial arts.

She heard Mrs. Li and An Ping talk about Li Tingyou and Mu Yan's martial arts, and if you want to achieve something in martial arts, you have to keep practicing cold and summer, practicing hard day and night, rain or shine, and the hardships you have to endure are far greater than you imagined.

Martial arts is no easier than reading!

Duanmu Xian was amused by Duanmu Fei and laughed: "The four girls said it well, maybe they would rather study." ”

His hearty laughter filled the evening air, and was joined by the little girl's laughter as crisp as a silver bell.

Duanmu Xian's eyes flashed slightly, and he couldn't help but think of his eldest son, Duanmu Lang.

At that time, he was bent on making the Duanmu family a scholarly family like the Chu family, so when Duanmu Lang insisted on abandoning literature and martial arts, he was furious and had a very unpleasant quarrel with Duanmu Lang, so that Duanmu Lang later left the northern border to join the army without saying goodbye......

Thinking back on this past at this moment, Duanmu Xian also felt a little like a world away, now he only feels that he was really stubborn at that time, what is the difference between his internship and martial arts, it is good to be able to walk out of his own way and be a family!

It doesn't matter if you let a few children in the family try it, you can't just rely on the grace of your grandparents...... Moreover, with his current position, even if the children go to the army, they can still be taken care of.

Duanmu Xian didn't speak again, thinking about it, except for a few sent to the academy, first leave the fourth and sixth grandsons in the mansion to practice martial arts, and then leave the next few small ones in the mansion to enlighten themselves......

In the middle of their thoughts, they came to the gate of the old mansion again, and the sunset had already set most of it.

Duanmuxian looked at the sky and was about to send the two girls to rest, when the chief came in a hurry, and said, "Old lady, the county commander of Tongping County has come with his wife to ask to see you." ”

Duanmuxian and his entourage arrived outside the town with a fire team of 100 people today, and the momentum was huge, and when they entered the town, almost half of the people in the town were alarmed, and word of mouth spread, and the news naturally reached the ears of the county commander.

Duanmuxian also knew that the county order would come to visit sooner or later, but he didn't expect it to be so soon.

Although Duanmu Xian is impatient to socialize, the old house of the Duanmu family and so many clansmen are here. There is a way that the strong dragon does not suppress the head snake, so how can he give this county commander a little face.

"Yes, please." Duanmuxian said helplessly.

Duanmu covered his mouth and snickered, looking at his grandfather sympathetically. This is called the ability to work hard!

"Grandfather, then my sister and I will go to rest first."

After Duanmu Fei and Duanmu Jun bowed and retired, they went to the inner courtyard to settle down, leaving Duanmu Xian and Duanmu Heng to go to the main hall to entertain guests.

After a while, Chang Sui invited Wang Xianling's family to the main hall.

"Lord Duanmu!" As soon as Wang Xian Ling walked into the main hall, he nodded at Duanmu Xian and bowed again.

Wang Xianling not only brought his wife, but also brought his two daughters together, and the target was naturally not only for Duanmu Xian.

Wang Xianling is a clever person, and as soon as he heard that Duanmu Xian went back to his hometown this time and brought the firecracker team with him, he figured it out.

It stands to reason that Shoufu is not qualified to use the army as an escort when traveling, so this firecracker team must be accompanying the escort of the little ancestor.

While saluting Duanmu Xian, he looked around, and saw that in addition to Duanmu Xian, there was only one young man in the hall who was not as weak as the crown, and he couldn't help but feel a little disappointed: he originally wanted his two daughters to be close to that little ancestor......

Thinking about it, Wang Xianling still warmly greeted Duanmu Xian:

"Lord Duanmu, you want to go back to your hometown, why don't you send a letter in advance, and the lower official will personally go to greet your lord today."

"This is your grandson, right? Sure enough, it's a talent! ”

"I don't know if Lord Duanmu plans to stay in the town for a few days, so it's better for Xia Guan to be the ...... tomorrow."

“……”

This Wang Xian Ling is a well-spoken person, even if Duanmu Xian's expression is faint and he doesn't talk much, he just propped up the scene and left it until the night fell before he left.

Duanmuxian and the others only rested for one day in their hometown, and hurried back to Beijing the next day.

This trip is so rushed, on the one hand, because Duanmu Xian, as the first assistant, is busy with official business, and on the other hand, because Hanxing's wedding date is approaching.

There is another little He family in the convoy back to Beijing, and since the family has been separated, it is inconvenient for Duanmu Xian to interfere in the affairs of their husband and wife.

Along the way, Xiao He's face has been gloomy, as if everyone owes her, and she looks like no one is allowed to enter.

After a day's journey, they usually stayed at the post station when they came, and when they were about to leave early the next morning, Xiao He's began to behave again:

"I'm tired and unwell, you go and tell the old lady that I have to rest for a day before I can go on the road."

"Also, get me a doctor!"

Xiao He's deliberately wanted Duanmu Xian to be unhappy.

However, the news brought back by Mama Song made Xiao He's even more unhappy: "Second lady, the old lady asked everyone to go on the road, saying that since you are not feeling well, you should 'rest' here for a few more days." ”

What the?!

Xiao He, who was half-lying on the couch and pretending to be sick, suddenly sat up with the thin quilt in his arms, "They are all gone?!" ”

There was no need for Mama Song to answer, the sound of horses' hooves and the sound of wheels came from outside, and they gradually drifted away.

Clearly, the convoy is on the road.

Looking at Xiao He's uncertain face, Mama Song was a little at a loss, and said: "Second lady, I see that the fire pistol team is also on the road, then we ......"

Xiao He couldn't sit still now, and hurriedly said: "Hurry up and let everyone pack up their things and catch up!" ”

It's Xiao He's hometown, the news is a little closed, and I heard that it's still very chaotic outside.

Although it has been much better than before in the past few months, there are still a lot of mountain bandits and bandits, and their group is richly dressed, there are men and women, and they have a lot of belongings with them......

The more Xiao He thought about it, the more anxious he became, and hurriedly urged the maid: "Quick! Hurry up and get dressed! ”

At this time, Duanmu came in towards the curtain, his face was gloomy as ink, and he said in a strange manner: "Aren't you feeling unwell?" ”

Duanmu Chao made no secret of the disgust in his eyes.

"......" Xiao He's was somewhat at a loss, and he was afraid that Duanmu Chao would harden his heart and throw her back to his hometown.

Mama Song hurriedly played a round: "Second master, second lady, it's not early, let's hurry up and chase ...... Let's go! ”

Duanmu Chao sent Mama Song away, sat down on the circle chair by the window, rubbed his eyebrows, and said tiredly: "Wanrong, I know that you are panicking because of Ah Heng's succession, and I am also holding back, but I have thought about it again and again in the past few days, and this is not a good thing." ”

"A good thing?" Xiao He looked at Duanmu Chao with a "Are you crazy" look.

Duanmu Chao secretly sighed in his heart that this woman has long hair and short knowledge, and said patiently: "That little girl in the long room is going to be the queen......

"What?" Xiao He interrupted Duanmu Chao in disbelief.

Duanmu Chao thought that Xiao He's family had lived in his hometown this year, and he was afraid that he didn't know much about the outside world, so he told Feng Yan that he recognized his ancestors and changed his surname to Mu, and now he is the regent and so on.

"If Sister Scarlet really becomes the queen, according to the ancestral system, the queen's maiden family can get the title of a duke." Duanmu Chao's eyes were shining.

"That'...... Isn't that Ah Heng ......" Xiao He's eyes also lit up, and his heart was hot.

Duanmu nodded his head: "So, don't make trouble, the most important thing now is to envelop Ah Heng, the succession is just a name, he is our own child!" ”

"......" Xiao He rubbed his handkerchief, still a little unwilling in his heart, but he felt that Duanmu Chao was reasonable.

Duanmu Heng has now passed to the Changfang, and there is a chance that the title will be passed on to him, no, it should be said that it will definitely be passed on to him! Then her son is the Duke of Yipinguo!

Anyway, Duanmu Xian is old, and he doesn't have a few years to live, and when he kicks his legs, can he still manage to make his son deny his parents?

That is, just endure it for a few years.

Seeing that Xiao He had figured it out, Duanmu Chao didn't stay long, and urged: "You hurry up and pack your things." ”

When Xiao He's side packed his luggage and came to the gate of the post station, Duanmu Xian's convoy was long gone.

Duanmu Chao was afraid that he would not be able to catch up with the convoy, so he didn't dare to delay any longer, so he immediately ordered: "Hurry!" Hurry up and hit the road! ”

The convoy of the second room hurried on the road, chasing all the way quickly, and finally saw the shadow of the convoy in front of it when it was almost time in the afternoon.

"Caught up!"

"Second master, catch up! In front of them is the old lady's convoy. ”

A young man in Tsing Yi came to say hello happily.

Duanmu poked his head out of the window on the side of the carriage, stretched his neck and looked ahead, only to see the shadow of the convoy in front of him, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

The convoys on both sides were getting closer and closer until a few roadblocks appeared in front of them.

Four or five soldiers of the firecracker team rode their horses to block the official road, preventing the convoy of the second room from continuing to approach.

The groom had no choice but to stop the carriage, and the five carriages and the accompanying horses had to stop in the middle of the official road.

Duanmu Chao's chief retinue hurriedly stepped forward, smiled at the soldiers of the fire pistol team and hugged his fists, "Several military masters, we are all from the Duanmu family, because we were delayed in the morning, we just caught up......"

"Don't get close to idlers!" The young general led by him didn't bother to deal with this long follower at all, and directly interrupted the other party, "We are ordered to protect the four girls of Duanmu, and the others will retreat!" ”

Chang Sui's face was a little stiff, and he wanted to explain: "This adult, our second master ......" is the second uncle of the fourth girl of Duanmu.

"Bang!"

Chang Sui's words were interrupted again, this time with a deafening firing of firearms.

The young man pulled out the firearm at his waist and shot it into the air.

Then, the mouth of the fire gun, which was still emitting wisps of white smoke, aimed at Changsui, and the heavy smell of gunpowder smoke penetrated into the tip of Changsui's nose with the wind.

The threat is palpable.

Chang Sui seemed to be dumb, and he couldn't make a sound anymore.

The soldiers of the firecracker team did not stay long, turned the head of their horses again, and chased after the convoy in front, leaving the convoy in the second room to stop in place.

Duanmu Chao in the carriage naturally saw this scene, he originally wanted to speak, but he was afraid that the other party would not give him face, and he would even make a fool of himself in public.

Duanmu Chao lowered the curtain hatefully, glared at Xiao He in the carriage, and scolded angrily: "Now you are satisfied!" ”

"......" Xiao He knew that he was wrong, so he didn't dare to say a word, and obediently shrank in the corner of the carriage, staring at the tip of his shoes with his eyes down.

The carriage was quiet for a while, and after half a cup of tea, the carriage began to move again, still chasing the direction of Duanmuxian and his party.

Only this time, the convoy of the second room did not dare to approach again, and only dared to follow the convoy in front of it not close or far.

As long as they kept a distance of a hundred feet, the fire team in front of them followed behind.

The way back to Beijing was obviously only three days, but for the second room and his party, it was like half a lifetime, and they tasted the hardships they hadn't tasted before.

Originally, they followed Duanmuxian on the way, lived in a post station, and didn't worry about anything about eating, drinking, and Lazar, but now they are in a hurry all the way, so they can only go to an ordinary inn to live, and they have to send people to pay attention to Duanmuxian's movements, for fear of losing people and people.

Along the way, I also encountered a group of homeless people who blocked the road and begged, and I almost couldn't get out.

When I arrived in the capital, it was already June 16, and the people in the second room such as Xiao He and Duanmu Chao were all gray and exhausted, and after a few nights, Xiao He almost didn't have a good rest in the inn, and the whole person seemed to be several years old all of a sudden.

Although she had been on the road for a few days, Duanmu Fei was in good spirits, and she said goodbye to Duanmu Xian at the gate of the city, saying that she would not return to the house first, and would go to Xiangyun Lane first.

Duanmu Xian didn't go back to the house, he went directly to the household department, and the fire team also went back to find Mu Yan to recover his life.

Duanmufei and Duanmujun's carriage hurried to Li's house.

Today happened to be the day when Hanxing gave the dowry, and when the carriage arrived at the mouth of the alley, Duanmufei heard the sound of "crackling" firecrackers from the direction of Li's house, and he was beaming.

There were also many people watching the excitement on the street, and their chatters sounded one after another, and words such as "princess", "dowry", and "ten miles of red makeup" faintly entered the carriage.

Duanmufei lifted the curtain on the side of the carriage and glanced in the direction where the firecrackers came from, and said happily: "Sister, Cousin Hanxing's dowry has just arrived, do you think it's better to be in time than in time?" ”

"We just happened to go over to support my grandmother and second aunt!" Duanmu Jun said with a smile.

After the new daughter-in-law's dowry enters her husband's house, she has to open the lid of the box for her husband's relatives to watch, but most of the Li family is not in the capital, and the only people who look at the dowry today are Mrs. Li and Mrs. Li's second wife, Xin.

As soon as their carriage arrived outside the Li Mansion, they were courteously introduced into the mansion by the subordinates of the Li Mansion.

"Two cousins, you're here!" A housekeeper enthusiastically guided the two sisters, "Mrs. Tai and Mrs. II have been talking about the two of them for a long time. ”

The housekeeper led them to the northeast of the house to ask the newlyweds to ask Meiyuan.

In fact, Duanmujun is very familiar with this yard, and asked Meiyuan to help find someone to renovate it, and she ran to ask Meiyuan many times in order to repair the yard.

The arrival of the sisters made the yard a lot more lively all of a sudden.

"Maternal grandmother, second aunt."

The sisters smiled and saluted Mrs. Li's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

Mrs. Li looked at the pair of flowery granddaughters and smiled from ear to ear, she took Duanmu Fei's little hand, and said lovingly: "Sister Fei, look at you, but you just returned to Beijing?" Why don't you go back and rest for a while, you kid? ”

Duanmu smiled obediently and glanced around.

The courtyard is full of dowry boxes, a full two hundred and fifty-six lifts, the boxes contain gold and silver jewelry, antique calligraphy and paintings, silk brocade quilts, jade ornaments, etc., all of which are fine products.

She smiled justifiably: "Grandmother, I'm here to join in the fun!" ”

One sentence made the two elders laugh.

She thought of something, and added appreciatively: "By the way, there are also scenes for grandmother and second aunt!" ”

"Just your big face!" Xin was amused by her even more, stretched out his finger and nodded on her forehead, behaving intimately.
