Chapter 10 Returning home after a long absence, tears in my eyes
After retreating, Xiao Yu hurriedly went to the Protector's Mansion. The sky was just dawning, and there was still some silence on the street, and when Xiao Yu returned to the Protector Mansion after a five-year absence, he turned over and dismounted, looked up at the words "Protector Mansion" on the door, and couldn't help but be a little excited. He touched the stone lions on both sides with his hands, and then stepped forward firmly and clasped the iron rings on the gate with his hands. Bang bang bang.
The old horse fell asleep at an old age, and had been sitting in the gatehouse for a long time, and when he heard a knock on the door, he quickly got up and opened the door. When he pulled open the heavy wooden door with a bang, he was surprised and delighted when he saw the person coming, and a smile appeared on his face again: "Less, less, young general?" After saying that, his eyes were moist with excitement, and he rubbed his eyes. Choked up: "I'm not dazzled? Is the Major General back? ”
Xiao Yu's face couldn't help but be a little moved, and he said gently: "Ma Bo, I'm back." ”
The old horse hurriedly shouted at the top of his voice: "The young general is back, come out and serve quickly." After a while, a few girls from the outer courtyard came out to greet him.
Xiao Yu gave the horse to the old horse, said goodbye to everyone, and strode towards the inner courtyard. He couldn't wait to see his grandmother.
I saw him take three steps and make two steps to the old lady's courtyard, the girl Bai Zhi was instructing the maid outside to clean, and a few people saw that he was wearing a purple official robe, with a tall posture, and the heroic man was not a major general. Bai Zhi and a few others hurriedly greeted him and saluted.
They were about to speak, Xiao Yu shushed and signaled them to be quiet, Bai Zhi said softly: "Welcome the young general home, the old lady has just gotten up and is squinting, the young general go in." Hurriedly and happily lifted the bamboo curtain for Xiao Yu and waited outside.
Xiao Yu gently pushed the door in, and saw the grandmother on the collapse leaning on the cushion, her eyes squinted, her white hair combed meticulously, covered with a purple satin quilt, and the incense in the incense niche on the small table next to him rose in wisps, and there was a sudden heat surge in his heart, looking at his grandmother who was already dying of her twilight and looking lonely, he regretted that he couldn't always accompany her old man. It's been gone for many years. Although the prince took good care of his grandmother, he could not make her happy as being with him every day. The expression on his face changed and changed, and then he gently walked to his grandmother's side, and gently collapsed to hug the old lady.
Feeling that someone was holding her, and with a cold breath, the old lady slowly opened her eyes, turned her face slightly, looked up, and saw that it was Yu'er who she was thinking about day and night. I couldn't help myself for a while, tears poured down, and I covered the old and warm hand on the pair of bony joints and slightly cold hands, and pinched and pinched tightly, Xiao Yu looked at his grandmother crying, and his eyes were a little tearful, and he smiled and said, "Grandmother, I'm back." He wiped the tears of the old lady with a handkerchief, and hugged the old lady tightly, and the grandfather and grandson had nothing to say for a while, so they stayed quietly for a long time, and the years were quiet.
When the old lady eased up, she finally felt that her grandson was coming home, and Xiao Yu hugged the old lady with peace of mind and took a nap. The old lady finally started the warm welcome mode that had been planned for a long time. After asking her grandson about her grandmother's situation in the army over the years and the arrangements for returning to Beijing, she was quite pleased to see her grandson's mature and stable appearance. Like all parents, seeing that their children are not young or alone, this topic can be easily switched 360 degrees without dead ends, and how can it be switched to the point of urging marriage.
I saw her old man mention in a roundabout and tactful manner: "Ying'er's death was just an accident, my son should be put down no matter what, my son has been in the military camp for 5 years, and it is the right way to take care of Taifu in this life." You still want to become a family, you live a happy life, so that Ying'er can be blind under Jiuquan. After speaking, he wiped his tears again: "In this way, I am also right about the ancestors of the Xiao family, or I won't be able to look at it in a hundred years!" ”.
Looking at the old grandmother's sad spring and autumn season, Xiao Yu couldn't help but be moved, and said gently, "I know my grandmother, and I will definitely be filial to the teacher in the future, but this marriage depends on fate." ”
When the old lady heard that this guy showed signs of relenting, she hurriedly said: "Yu'er has worked hard all the way, I have ordered someone to clean up your room, go and rest for a while, this marriage, grandmother will help you pay attention to it." "Come on, hurry up and take the young master to rest!"
Outside the door, the Wang family, the Fang family, and Xiao Yu's little servant wood were already waiting, and everyone was overjoyed, and the wood was even more tearful, and smirked: "Young General, you can come back, why don't you take the wood with you?" ”
Xiao Yu looked at the stupid appearance of the wood with a smile, and said, "Stupid, I'm not coming back, what does a big man look like when he cries?" Mu chattered as he led Xiao Yu towards his courtyard.
Seeing Xiao Yu leaving, the old lady immediately activated the spiritual mode and hurriedly instructed the Wang family: "Mrs. Wang, I asked you to ask the matchmaker to tell me what happened to the matchmaker?" The princess said: "Don't worry, old lady, I found 6 matchmakers, ask them to pay attention, and I will call them for questioning." ”
The old lady hurriedly said, "Go quickly, I'll see you here." He hurriedly stopped: "This person is going to be invited quietly, and I can't let the young master know, he just came back and has a lot of things to do, and I have a suitable candidate." The princess hurriedly nodded and retreated happily.
