Because the courtyard arranged for the old lady was in the South Courtyard, the group from Hao Mansion naturally followed them to the South Courtyard.

Ding Yezi was quite curious about Wan Niang's identity, but the family was close along the way, and there was no chance for her to whisper to Hao Ling. Perhaps, after arriving in the old lady's yard, Wanniang's identity will be revealed!

When the old lady returned to the house for the first time, in terms of etiquette, the family of the Hao Mansion also had to give the old lady a formal ceremony.

However, it was said that the group went straight to the third courtyard of the South Courtyard, and the snow along the road had been swept away, and the plum blossoms were blooming, and the faint fragrance was wafting in the wind. The earth dragon in the house has already been hot, the charcoal basin has been arranged, and even two small plum blossom pots are placed on the high table.

The old lady looked at the simple and elegant room, and was quite satisfied, and after sitting down on the main seat, she glanced at the juniors standing in front of her with a smile, and said in a kind voice: "Don't stand, all of you sit down." ”

As the head of the family, Mr. Hao heard the old lady say this, and bent down deeply, looking respectful and filial, "Mother, the child has been looking forward to the mother to return to Taihe County day and night, so that the child can be filial piety in front of the mother, and now finally the mother is back, the child is overjoyed, and he will be filial to his mother in the future, so as to make up for the unfilial piety of his mother for more than ten years." ”

The old lady heard her son say this, how could she be unhappy, and hurriedly stretched out her hands to Master Hao, signaling him to get up, "Zhongyi, hurry up, what are you doing so politely in front of your mother?" Could it be that our mother and son are separated? I've been staying in the capital all these years, and it's really not good. No, I pondered that Ling'er also married a daughter-in-law, and seeing that Zhongyi was also a grandfather, I wanted to come back to live for a while, and I was closer to your father. ”

As she spoke, the old lady sighed, looked into the distance, and sighed faintly: "This person is old, it is inevitable to think about the fallen leaves and return to the roots, although I have been in the capital for so many years, but there has never been a day when I feel that it should be my home." Now that I'm almost sixty, no one knows if I'll be able to see you again tomorrow morning, so I wonder if it's better to come back, it's good to come back. ”

Hearing the old lady's slightly sad emotion, the juniors all stood without saying a word.

Hao Lingwei relied on her youngest age, and seeing that no one answered the old lady's words, she raised her smiling face, slowly walked to the old lady's side, blessed her body, shallow dimples rippled, and said sweetly: "Ancestor, you are our ancestor, since you have returned to Taihe County now, the days in the future will be long, and the spring flowers and autumn moon will look at it every year." Lingwei listened to her mother when she was a child, and what kind of amiable grandmother the ancestor was, but unfortunately Lingwei was young and could not serve the old ancestor around, and now that the ancestor has returned, Lingwei can finally do her filial piety and accompany the old lady every day. ”

The little granddaughter is so filial, how can the old lady be unhappy, she couldn't close her mouth with a smile at the moment, reached out to hold Hao Lingwei's hand, pulled her to sit down beside her, patted her hand, looked up and down, and said with a smile: "Sure enough, she is a good girl." ”

Hao Lingwei pursed her lips and smiled, her big eyes narrowed into a slit, and her delicate childishness was quite pitiful.

"Wan Niang, go and bring the gifts I prepared for a few children." The old lady looked at Hao Lingwei beside her with satisfaction, but she commanded Wanniang on the side.

Wan Niang answered yes and went to the back room in person.

Just now, when the family was out to catch up, the little maids had already sent the old lady's luggage to the back room.

When she was young, Wan Niang came over, followed by two little maids, each of whom was holding a tray in her hand, and there were two brocade boxes in the tray.

"Ancestor, the thing is here." Wan Niang looked indifferent and said to the old lady respectfully.

The old lady looked sideways at Wan Niang, and said, "Well, you bring me the brocade box prepared for Lingwei." ”

Wan Niang nodded, turned around and took a brocade box from the tray of the little maid who was close to her, and handed it to the old lady.

The old lady took it and handed it to Hao Lingwei with a smile, "Lingwei, I just came back from the capital, and I don't know what you little girls like, I think I always have to prepare something that you can use in the future, no, I just picked a gold face for you, and also added a few dowries to you." ”

Hao Lingwei looked at the brocade box in her hand in surprise, she didn't expect the old lady to be so generous to her. You must know that when she and Hao Lingzhu went to the capital to visit the old lady in the past, the old lady obviously liked Hao Lingzhu more than her.

Could it be that the old lady prepared a heavier gift for Hao Lingzhu this time?

No matter what gift the old lady prepared for Hao Lingzhu, Hao Lingwei still saluted the old lady excitedly, thanking the old lady for the gift she prepared.

The old lady slapped her hand with a smile, "What are you polite to grandmother?" With such a well-behaved and obedient child as you, grandmother is already very happy to see you. ”

Hao Lingwei showed that childish smile again.

As the youngest child of Hao Fu, to a certain extent, Hao Lingwei is indeed very advantageous.

Ding Yezi heard that the old lady was so generous, and couldn't help but secretly speak, in the end, it was the old lady of a rich family, thinking that when she got married, her mother couldn't get together a set of silver heads for her anyway, and she shed tears several times for this. But this matter is so casual on the old lady's body.

After rewarding Hao Lingwei, the old lady looked up at Hao Lingzhu, who was standing quietly behind Master Hao, and shouted with a light smile: "Lingzhu ......"

Hao Lingzhu raised her head when she heard the voice, the corners of her mouth turned up slightly, and she smiled and gave the old lady a salute.

"Come on, come on, sit down with your grandmother too." The old lady stretched out her hand and pointed to the other side of the place, motioning for Hao Lingzhu to sit over.

Hao Lingzhu's brows furrowed inadvertently, but soon returned to the smiling appearance on his face, slowly walked to the old lady's side, and sat down beside the old lady obediently.

The old lady looked Hao Lingzhu up and down with a smile, nodded and praised: "Lingzhu is now a big girl, and it's time to get married." ”

Hao Lingzhu's cheeks turned red, and she didn't know how to answer the old lady's words.

The old lady knew that Hao Lingzhu was an introvert, and when she saw that she was shy and embarrassed, she laughed more and more happily, and then said to Wanniang: "Wanniang, what about Lingzhu's share?" ”

Wan Niang nodded slightly, took a brocade box from the tray and handed it to Hao Lingzhu's hand.

Hao Lingzhu was frightened for a while, refused slightly, frowned slightly, and said lightly: "Grandmother, you finally came back to live, Lingzhu as long as you can see the old lady often, why should the old lady prepare these gifts?" It's embarrassing to call Lingzhu, and she didn't prepare anything for the old lady. ”

Looking at the old lady's appearance, she obviously likes Hao Lingzhu more than Hao Lingwei, and the smile on her face is much kinder.

"You child, what are you polite to your grandmother? I'm old, what's the use of carrying these things? It's all people who step into the coffin. You are all little girls, it is the time to be beautiful, I will bring the most fashionable heads in the capital this time, and I guarantee that there are only a few sets in Taihe County, and there will never be more. I think if there is a gathering between the ladies of the family, you take it out, it's also a kind of face, isn't it? ”

The old lady said with a smile, and said, "Even if you don't need it now, if you talk about marriage in the future, it can be used as a dowry, isn't it?" ”

Hao Lingzhu's cheeks suddenly blushed, either or not, not and no.

Aunt Shen saw that the old lady was so generous this time, and saw that the other two remaining brocade boxes were as big as the brocade boxes of Hao Lingzhu and Hao Lingwei's sisters, and couldn't help but wonder in her heart, could it be that the old lady also gave her a set of gold head jewelry? And is it the most fashionable in the capital now?

If that's the case, that's great! Some time ago, those ladies and wives in Taihe County knew that Hao Mansion was now in charge of Ding Page, and she no longer had the right to be in charge, and I don't know how many people said that she was not, and that her makeup was becoming more and more shabby, and she must have completely lost power in Hao Mansion.

Thinking that she has been beautiful for so many years, where can she accept this kind of change for a while? Besides, she never thought in her heart that the position of the head of the Hao Mansion really fell into the hands of Ding Yezi. Hum...... Sooner or later, it will return to her hands.

Hearing that the old lady mentioned Hao Lingzhu's marriage, Aunt Shen hurriedly smiled and said, "Old lady, Lingzhu will be fourteen this year, and it will be fifteen next year, so it's time to discuss marriage." ”

The old lady smiled, glanced at Aunt Shen lightly, and said lightly: "Lingzhu's marriage is something to say, but the children are here now, so it's better not to mention it." ”

Aunt Shen was suffocated, and was blocked by the old lady in a word, she was originally about to make a sycophant, but she was angry, and she was suddenly silent, and she didn't know what to say.

The old lady said lightly: "Wan Niang, what about the one prepared for Aunt Shen?" ”

Wan Niang turned around and took a brocade box from the tray and delivered it to Aunt Shen in person.

Aunt Shen's face was embarrassed, but she was busy taking the brocade box in her hand. Thinking that the old lady just said that this is the most fashionable style in the capital today, her heart was excited, but unfortunately in front of so many people, she couldn't open the brocade box, so she had to pretend to politely refuse, and thanked the old lady for her heart.

The old lady didn't say what she was preparing for Aunt Shen, and when Aunt Shen finished speaking, the old lady looked at Ding Page again, beckoned, and said, "Daughter-in-law Ling, come here, let me take a good look." Last time you married Ling Er, I was in a hurry, and I didn't have time to come back, and it was also my fault as a grandmother. ”
