The second day of the first lunar month of Qing'an 209.

People from the eastern capital, with the holy decree, ordered the Youzhou Festival to make Wen Shuqiu, resign and return to the eastern capital.

Feng from the second grade of the military department Shang Shulang, Youzhou government affairs temporarily taken over by Youzhou County Order, set off on the same day, without delay.

When Wen Shijiao heard the news, she was having lunch, she was stunned, looked at Rujiang who came to report, frowned and asked, "Is it true?" ”

If you purse your lips, "it should be true." ”

As soon as the words fell, Wen Shijiao put the dishes and chopsticks in her hand on the table, got up, and walked out.

Yu Dai was stunned for a moment, hurriedly took the cloak on Mu Shi on the side, and followed the girl out.

Walking to Qingrong Building, Wen Shijiao saw the housekeeper Wen Xing who was walking into the building, and shouted, "Steward Wen." ”

Wen Xing is a middle-aged man with a slightly chubby face.

Hearing Wen Shijiao's shout, Wen Xing turned his head, bowed down with a smile and replied, "Third Miss, what do you command?" ”

"Is it true that I returned to the Eastern Capital?"

Wen Shijiao stared at Wen Xing tightly, for fear that she had missed something.

Wen Xing lowered his eyes and said respectfully: "Third Miss, it's better to ask the master." ”

The girl's eyebrows raised slightly, then waved her hand, and Wen Xing retreated.

Wen Shijiao walked straight to the building.

Someone has already gone to report Wen Shuqiu.

As soon as he stepped into the building, he saw Wen Shuqiu with his hands behind his back, with his back to her, and it seemed that he was waiting for her.

Hearing the movement, Wen Shuqiu turned around, looked at the girl, and said in a deep voice, "You are here." ”

Wen Shijiao found a seat and sat down, looked at him, and asked, "Go back to the Eastern Capital, is it true?" ”

“...... It's true. ”

Wen Shuqiu's tone was a little helpless.

The Wen family is a native of Youzhou, and now they are leaving their hometown.

No one feels good in their hearts.

Wen Shijiao felt uncomfortable, there were too many memories in Youzhou, the memories of herself and the Ji family brothers and sisters, the memories of herself and Zhu Tingshan, and Sheng Mingzhu, if she left like this, what should I do with these memories? What to do with Sheng Mingzhu? What should I do about Zhu Tingshan?

After thinking about it carefully, Wen Shijiao slowly spoke: "I'm not going." ”

Wen Shuqiu raised his eyes to look at her.

I heard the girl say: "There is A-Niang's dowry here, and I buy a house at will, and I am also living very freely." ”

Wen Shuqiu is such a daughter as hers, she treats her as a treasure on weekdays, how can she endure the separation of father and daughter: "I don't agree, you have offended a lot of people in Youzhou openly and secretly, if I leave, who will protect you?" ”

After thinking about it, he comforted: "Mingzhu's dowry, I will arrange someone to watch and guard it, and there will never be half a loss, and it can be transferred to the Eastern Capital at that time." ”

"But, what about Tingshan?" Wen Shijiao had a hard time making a choice.

Wen Shuqiu was silent, and only after a while did he speak: "You... Go talk to him. If he is willing to go to the Eastern Capital together, it will be great. ”

Hearing him say this, Wen Shijiao had some hope in her heart.

Yes, maybe, Zhu Tingshan will also go to the Eastern Capital together?

"When will you go?"

"Tomorrow morning."

I didn't even let this New Year end.

Suddenly, a small guy came, "Master, the old lady is making trouble in the main house, and the people in all the courtyards are there, just waiting for you." ”

Wen Shijiao looked at him: "What's the trouble?" ”

"The old lady knew that she would not take her to the Eastern Capital, so she made a fuss." The little guy replied truthfully.

Wen Shijiao turned her eyes to look at Wen Shuqiu again, and said puzzledly: "Don't take her?" ”

"In short, she is also old, and staying in Youzhou can be regarded as a return to her roots, and she will go back to the Eastern Capital with us, is this actually going to be buried in a foreign country?"

Wen Shuqiu is afraid that he is the first person to curse his mother.

But he has a point.

Youzhou is the homeland, after the person dies, the burial in the homeland is also the root of the fallen leaves, buried in the countryside, no matter how you think about it, you also feel regretful.

Wen Shijiao thought for a while, looked at him and said, "Let's go and have a look." ”

The father and daughter went together to the main house.

-

As soon as I reached the main house, I could hear Liu's dry howl.

Wen Shijiao sneered, and when she heard it, she felt that it was very fake.

The father and daughter stepped into the main house.

When Liu saw the two of them come in, he made even more trouble.

"Ouch, my life is so miserable, my son doesn't care about me, this is to make me unable to live!"

Liu howled so much that he grabbed the ground, for fear that others would not hear.

Wen Shuqiu and Wen Shijiao both sat down.

didn't say a word, just watched Liu cry like that.

Wen Shuchun couldn't seem to stand it anymore, raised his eyes and looked at Wen Shuqiu and said, "Second brother, let's bring my mother with you, what do you say?" ”

No one spoke.

Wen Shuchun was extremely embarrassed, looking left and right, only his eyes were silent, and no one saw the fierceness in his eyes.

Liu's throat was dry, and no one paid attention to her.

Seeing that this trick didn't work, he looked at Wen Shuqiu in a sneering manner and said, "The second master, I'm also your mother!" Back then, I was the one who pulled you two brothers to bring up, but now, when my son is older, is he going to abandon his old mother? ”

Liu said with tears in his eyes, and those who heard it were sad and those who heard it shed tears.

However, only Wen Shuchun and Wen Ruhui were present, and their eyes were red.

Whether it's true or not, I'm afraid it's only known to individuals.

Wen Shuqiu still didn't speak.

"Second uncle, I beg you, bring the ancestor with you! Even if you don't take me, I admit it! Wen Ruhui wanted to work hard to create an image of filial piety.

Wen Shijiao sneered, clasped her hands to her chest, and leaned back on the chair, "Okay, then I won't take you." ”

As soon as these words came out, Wen Ruhui panicked.

She's just acting, the Wen family went to the Eastern Capital, how could they be without her!

Wen Ruhui hurriedly changed his words: "I... That was not what I meant. ”

"That's why you want your grandmother to stay here, and you go to the Eastern Capital?" Wen Rujing opened his mouth quietly.

Liu Shi immediately looked at Wen Ruhui with disgust.

Wen Ruhui was a little overwhelmed, instinctively drove her to kneel down, a line of tears flowed, and looked at Wen Shuchun, pitiful: "Father, I didn't mean this, I really didn't mean that." ”

Wen Shuchun really didn't want to get involved in this farce anymore, so he lowered his eyes and didn't speak.

Wen Ruhui looked at Wen Shuqiu again, and begged bitterly: "Second uncle, second uncle begs you." ”

"You are a man of the big house, you shouldn't beg me."

Wen Shuqiu didn't look at her, just lowered his head and straightened his cuffs.

Wen Ruhui turned his head to look at Gu Shi again, and walked up to Gu Shi on his knees, "Mother..."

Gu Shi was a little impatient in his heart, this Wen Ruhui was also stupid, "Don't talk about it." ”

As soon as he heard this, Wen Ruhui felt hopeful, so he hurriedly responded: "Hey, I know, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you." ”

When Liu saw that only he was still in Youzhou, he was not convinced at all, so he howled again: "Ouch! O ancestors of the Wen family! Open your eyes! ”

Wen Shijiao really felt that the noise was tight, not to mention that she would have to go to Zhu Tingshan later, but she was not in the mood to accompany her to make trouble here.

"Then take it with you, just throw it out if you make trouble."

The girl left such a sentence, which shocked everyone.

When Wen Shuqiu saw her speak, he also nodded: "Okay, today you quickly pack your bags and set off at two o'clock tomorrow morning." ”

After saying that, he stood up and walked out.

Wen Shijiao also got up and whispered to Yu Dai to arrange the carriage, she was going to see Zhu Tingshan.
