CHAPTER IX

When Su Muyang took Su Muqing and Su Jin'an back to Su Mansion, Su Mansion was already surrounded by soldiers, and Su Muyang took the initiative to explain: "Don't be nervous, these are the people brought back by Dad to protect us." ”

Su Muqing and Su Jin have settled down a lot with peace of mind, now that Su Mu is back, even if the problem is not solved, it should be a bit of an eyebrow, and it is estimated that it will not be good if such a big movement is dispatched.

Su Jin'an and Su Muqing went to see Mei before they had time to change their clothes, and the night's desperate rush made Mei haggard, and the black blue at the moment was obvious. Looking at the embarrassed Su Muqing and Su Jin'anmei's tears, they couldn't stop their tears, so they could only keep touching their sons and daughters' hands and saying over and over again: "It's good to come back, it's okay, it's okay to come back." "I don't know whether to comfort myself or others.

Su Murong also followed Mei's side and called with red eyes: "Big brother, third sister, why did you come back." ”

Su Jinan hugged Su Murong, who was about the same height as her, and comforted him: "My eldest brother and I found a safe place to hide and wait for our father to find us, aren't we all back, it's okay." ”

When Mei Mu said that he might not be able to come back without Su Jin'an, Mei hugged Su Jin'an and Su Muqing for a long time, until Su Mu heard the news and rushed over, Mei barely stopped his tears.

Su Mu first asked a military doctor to mention Su Muqing to check his body before he was much more relieved, because Zhou Lao was injured on the way, so he couldn't mention Su Muqing for diagnosis and treatment for the time being, so he could only let the military doctor check it first.

Su Mu looked at his wife's red and swollen eyes and the children's pale faces, the second son was still hanging colors, Su Mu didn't ask anything, just clenched his fists and said to the children: "It's okay if people are okay, you are all good children, you are the pride of your father, you can rest assured, your father will never let you suffer in vain!" ”

Then he hugged his wife's shoulders and said: "Thank you for your hard work, now that the children are back, don't think about anything, take the children to have a good rest, everything is with me." ”

A few days later, Su Jin'an learned the basic situation of this incident from his two elder brothers: those "bandits" were naturally not real bandits, but Su Mu did not pass on the true identities of these people, so they didn't know. However, it was not only Su Mansion that was attacked this time, there were several military households in Baode Town that were also attacked, but the main force was concentrated in the mansion of Yu Min, the envoy on the edge of the town, and Su Mu, the deputy envoy on the edge of the town, so even if it was not explicitly stated, it could be guessed who was doing it, and it was none other than Nanyuan.

Since the people of Nanyuan have done it, and the target is the family of the general, this despicable method will definitely cause the dissatisfaction of many generals, and the court should not sit idly by, if even the safety of the soldiers' families cannot be guaranteed, then who is willing to die for the imperial court? Su Jin'an thought silently through the news brought by Su Muyang.

Seeing Su Jin'an frowning and looking serious, Su Muyang wanted to tease her: "An An, I heard that there is a big man in our Huailing recently." ”

"Who?" Su Jin'an raised his head to look at him.

Su Muyang smiled and sold Guanzi: "Call me 'good second brother' and tell you." ”

"Oh, forget it, I'll know sooner or later anyway." Su Jin'an didn't care.

"Oh, sister, why don't you have any curiosity!"

"......" Su Jinan ignored him and continued to study the medical book in his hand.

Su Muyan walked around anxiously on the side, as if he was the one who had been hanged.

In the end, Su Muyang couldn't hold back, and said to Su Jin'an a little frustratedly: "I heard that the reason why our movement here is so big is because of this big man." ”

Seeing that Su Jin'an didn't even lift his eyelids, he had no choice but to continue: "It is said that he is a royal person!" ”

Su Jinan finally raised his head: "Oh, that's the case." Looking at Su Muyang's sparkling eyes, Su Jinan decided to fulfill his little wish for the sake of him being injured: "Okay-second-brother." ”

In the end, Su Muyang happily walked out of Su Jin'an's yard.

Su Jinan looked at Su Muyang's distant figure and was a little stunned: It seems that this matter will indeed not be good, but I don't know if there will be a war.

No matter what happens in the world, time never stops, like a ruthless monk.

In the blink of an eye, five years have passed in a flash.

At this time, it was a cold and windy winter in the capital.

In the early morning, before the sun shows its face, the streets of the capital are already busy, with shouting vendors, hurried pedestrians, and the occasional sword-wielding person crossing the street, attracting people's sideways, and gradually the noisy streets indicate the beginning of a new day.

In a simple but atmospheric mansion, people come and go very busy, a woman in a white shirt leans against the window and looks at the bare branches of the yard a little distracted, her eyebrows are picturesque, her skin is like congealed fat, and her soft hair is naturally scattered behind her, almost blending with the black window, looking like a static lady picture from a distance, it can't help but remind people of the description in the Book of Poetry "There is a beauty, clear and graceful." There is a beauty, as graceful as Qingyang. ”

This woman is none other than Su Jin'an, at the age of fourteen, she has long since retreated from ignorance and cuteness, and now she is already a slim girl. Su Jin'an has returned to the capital for half a month, since five years ago, the small border country disguised as mountain bandits to attack the border city after Su Mu wrote a letter to ask for war, and then with the town border envoy Yu Min together in less than three years to completely solve the security risks of the border of Annan, and then the emperor ordered Su Mu to supervise the construction of the Huailing defense project, this construction is another two years, until this year the emperor ordered Su Mu to return to Beijing with his family to return to Beijing, because Mrs. Su was more serious Su Mu was the first to return to Beijing, and then made a special trip back to Huailing to take their family back, As soon as they came back, it was already winter.

In the half month since they came back, they haven't stopped at all, Su Mansion is a typical ancient Shi family, Master Su is Su Mu's father, her grandfather Su Ye is the history of the dynasty, plus the Su family has been an official for generations, and it can be regarded as the official family in the middle of the capital, this etiquette is naturally indispensable, in addition to meeting Su Mu's two brothers-in-law, there are also many relatives that Su Jin'an can't remember.

Su Jinan only knew that her grandfather was Su Ye and her grandmother was Li, and they had three sons: the eldest son Su Zheng, he had two sons and a daughter, sister-in-law Su Muhua, sister-in-law Su Musheng and sister-in-law Su Zi; the second son, Su Yao, he has two sons and two daughters, his sons-in-law Su Muchen and Su Muchao, and his sisters-in-law Su Chan and Su Juan; There are also some side cousins and cousins, and Su Jin'an drew a tree-like diagram for a long time to remember all these people in the Su family.

Su Jin'an is most afraid of recognizing people, when she used to go to school, she couldn't recognize all the classmates in a class, except for a few friends who she saw every day, she couldn't remember a few words at all, she only knew the name but couldn't remember the appearance, often she finally matched the person and the name and was about to graduate, so that in addition to those who were familiar with her, many people thought she was cold, in fact, she was really not cold, and then Su Jinan gradually gave up, Gao Leng is Gao Leng Anyway, she doesn't want to spend time remembering some unimportant people to waste her brain capacity, and it is better to use that time to memorize medical books. But now she has to remember the Su family's "family tree", and Su Jinan thinks for the first time that she may really be suffering from face blindness. It's going to be a meeting to recognize people again, and it will be embarrassing if she admits her mistakes, God willing, don't let her make a fool of herself.

Today is a big day for Su Jinan and Su Murong to "recognize their ancestors and return to their ancestors", Su Mu has been released for 11 years now, except for returning to Beijing at the end of each year to report on his work, he has hardly returned to the capital, so that the people of the Su family have never seen her and Su Murong, and now they come back to Master Su and let them carry out a "recognition of their ancestors and return to their ancestors".

Su Jin'an was dug up by her personal maid Zizhu early, and while she was tidying up the bed, Su Jin'an leaned against the window in a daze, and prayed that everything would go well today.

Zizhu was brought back by Su Jin'an from Huailing, Qingdai has already been matched, she now has a total of three personal maids, namely Zizhu, Powder Cream, Xia Qu, they are all brought back by Su Jin'an from Huailing, among which Zizhu is the largest this year 16, Powder Cream and Xia Qu are both fourteen years old this year, they are all orphans, Su Jin'an gave them a chance to be reborn, they can only repay loyalty, so there are many things Su Jin'an is assigned to them to do, since that sneak attack Su Jinan began to slowly build his own "career", On the one hand, it is to not implicate the Su family when dealing with Lin Wenguo in the future, and on the other hand, she simply wants to make some money, after all, in the ancient era of the supremacy of rights, she can only make money without power, and if she has money, she can buy power, after all, who would not like money?

Zizhu cleaned up and looked at the young lady who was still in a daze, and couldn't help urging: "Miss, why are you still in a daze, it's too late to wash up and put on makeup, it's a big day today."

Su Jinan still couldn't wake up, yawned and nodded blankly: "Got it." Then he went to the transept and washed.

In the end, in the unremitting efforts of Zizhu and Xia Qu and Su Jin'an's yawn, she was finally cleaned up, and it was not early at this time, and after eating two bites of food, a grandmother came to invite her, and then Su Jinan went to the old lady with the grandmother in the house.

There were already a lot of people when Su Jin'an arrived, but there were few people she could call, the first thing she saw was Su Murong in a dark green robe, he was fourteen years old this year, and now he is no longer the cute little Zhengtai he used to be, although the current Su Murong is actually one year younger than Su Jin'an, but he is much taller than Su Jin'an, his eyebrows and eyes are somewhat similar to Su Muqing, but his personality is the same as Su Muyang, Su Murong also saw Su Jin'an smiled at her and beckoned her to go over, Su Jin'an was shaken by his white teeth. Seeing his shaking hand, he didn't pay attention to it, but went straight to Mrs. Su, who was sitting in the innermost, and saluted: "Say hello to grandmother, I hope grandmother won't blame my grandmother when my granddaughter is late." ”

Old Mrs. Su looked at the well-behaved and docile granddaughter in front of her and did not reprimand, and said, "Hurry up, how can grandmother blame you, whose young lady can't dress up for an hour or two, go and meet your uncles." ”

"Yes, Grandmother Xie." Su Jinan silently took a few deep breaths, then turned around to greet the uncles and aunts sitting on the side one by one, and finally returned to Su Mu and his wife to stand with Su Murong. Su Murong looked at the relieved Su Jin'an and gloated a little: "Third sister, it's not easy, I didn't admit my mistake, I read it last night." ”

Su Jin'an can think of his cheap expression at the moment without looking at him, Su Jin'an is still standing respectfully and obediently on his face, but in fact, he secretly stretched his hand to Su Murong's waist and pinched his soft flesh, Su Murong instantly suppressed his laughter, feeling the stiffness of Su Murong's body Su Jinan was very satisfied, and said secretly: Let you owe your mouth, and you will not be exposed to the house for a day.

It wasn't until Su Murong begged for mercy that Su Jinan withdrew his golden hand, Su Murong rubbed his waist with an aggrieved face, and whispered to Su Jinan: "You are too ruthless." ”

Su Jinan glanced at him and didn't continue to pay attention to him.

The elders present were all greeting each other, and no one paid attention to the fights between these juniors. Su Murong is an idle master, look here for a while, look at there for a while, and finally stop her eyes on Su Jin'an, she is wearing a long skirt with a white background today, which is printed with light blue peony, each flower is hooked with silver wire, fine workmanship, and the jewelry is also of the same color, the whole person looks quiet and introverted, which seems to be very suitable in this solemn day, Su Murong couldn't help but poke Su Jin'an: "Third sister, it's rare to see you dressed up so carefully, but it's quite beautiful." ”

received Su Murong's compliment, and Su Jinan said, "You have vision. After a while, after everyone arrived, Master Su took everyone to the Su family ancestral hall after a few simple words, and started various ceremonies that gave Su Jinan a headache, at the end of the day, Su Jinan felt that she was not herself, and when she returned to her yard, it was almost dark, and she took a hot bath and spread out on the bed and didn't want to move.

After officially worshipping the ancestors of the Su family, the story of Su Jinan and Su Murong, the "twins", spread, and the two had to go everywhere to meet the elders. Just when Su Jinan was busy with all kinds of "greetings" and interpersonal contacts every day, the first snow had quietly fallen, and in a starless night, they were unhurriedly scattered from the darkness, not wrapped in silver, nor bent dry branches, they gently fell on no corner of the earth, not noisy, not publicized, only the hazy layer, although not amazing, but also have a beautiful sense of seeing flowers in the fog.

The first thing Su Jinan heard when she woke up the next day was Zizhu saying to her, "Miss, it's snowing outside!" Then Zizhu turned around again when there was still Su Jin'an on the bed, as soon as she heard the snow, all the sleepy insects flew away in an instant, she hadn't seen snow for a long time, she had been living in the south in ancient times, although it occasionally snowed, but it was not big, and it didn't take long to melt, so she missed the snow in the north very much.

Su Jinan couldn't help but be a little disappointed when she looked at the snow in front of her that couldn't cover the ground, but something is better than nothing, when Xia Qu came with hot water, he saw Su Jinan standing in front of the door in pajamas, and immediately put down the water and helped Su Jinan to the house and said to Zizhu: "Why is Miss Tian so cold still wearing so little and standing outside, why don't you say let Miss get dressed and go out again." ”

Although Xia Qu is younger than Zizhu, he is very steady in his work, not at all like a fourteen-year-old child, Su Jin'an's biggest experience when he came to ancient times is that these ancients are really good, one is more precocious than the other, obviously he is still a junior high school student, but he is old like thirty years old.
