Chapter 351 The return trip
After a few contacts, Feng Qingyang found that this Yao Xiuchu's ability was okay, and he could barely get into the eyes of his old man, so he took him with him to teach for a few days, and he knew that this was his precious apprentice's right-hand man.
"Boy, you have made good progress during this time, and you will help Zisu well in the future, which can be regarded as the work of the old man's teaching in the past few days." Feng Qingyang touched his beard and looked at Yao Xiuchu.
"Teacher, your teaching, Yao Xiuchu will never forget it for the rest of her life, and for Miss Zisu, it is the grace of saving her life in the front, and the grace of knowing the encounter in the back." Yao Xiu's first smile was gentle and calm, and when he mentioned Zisu, there was a moment of gentleness in his eyes.
"It's good to know, in the past few days in the capital, you are idle, you should study this medical book well, how much you can comprehend depends on your creation." The wind lightly put an unnamed book into Yao Xiuchu's hand.
"Thank you, teacher." Yao Xiuchu admired the wind lightly, and the nameless medical book in his hand was even more like a treasure.
Feng Qingyang didn't speak again, and he could see that this kid was devoted to his precious apprentice, and he was very dedicated to helping take care of those Xiao Ji Medical Halls, but looking at the appearance of his apprentice, he could only sigh that the heart of his apprentice had already flown to the kid surnamed Li.
Hmph, when he arrives in the capital, let's see how this kid surnamed Li treats his apprentice, if he dares to lose Zisu, even if he detoxifies him in Zisu's face, it won't make him feel better, when he Medicine King Gu can only heal?
Along the way, Xiao Jingyuan's forward battalion arranged escorts, it can be said that the road was smooth, Zisu and his younger brother had to get out of the car from time to time to see the customs along the road, so they stopped and went, and when they arrived in the capital, it was already more than a month later.
"Grandfather, is there the capital ahead? There are really a lot of people, and the city gate is magnificent! Xiao Zikang saw everything fresh, looked at the faintly visible city gate in the distance, and felt majestic and majestic.
"Well, I'm here in front, when I get to the capital, my grandfather will definitely find you the best academy, the best gentleman, what can you do first?" Xiao Jingyuan can be said to be distressed to this smart and clever grandson.
"Grandfather, don't get used to him, if you get used to a second ancestor, your first reputation will be ruined!" Zisu looked at the harmony between her ancestors and grandchildren, and she was also happy, after all, she was a relative, and she was worthy of the original owner, although she had already regarded Xiao Zikang as her own brother.
"Hahaha, Zisu, you have to worry too much about this, Kang'er will never become the second ancestor, as the saying goes, three years old looks old, my grandson Xiao Jingyuan, how can he be a second ancestor. By the way, Zisu, what are your plans to go to the capital, and if you need your grandfather's help, just ask? ”
Xiao Jingyuan is also a little depressed sometimes, he is not patriarchal, on the contrary, he cherishes this granddaughter who is quite similar to his wife, but unfortunately, his granddaughter is too powerful, and it is also a sad matter, and he can't help at all as a grandfather.
"Well, if something happens to the granddaughter, she naturally wants to find her grandfather, and if she causes any trouble to her grandfather, will her grandfather forgive her?" Zisu is also close to this grandfather, who is loud-spoken, straightforward, and has good martial arts, maybe this is also due to blood relationship.
"Okay, no matter what is difficult, just come to find my grandfather, with my grandfather here, see who dares to bully my Miss Protector of the Princess." Xiao Jingyuan patted his chest and assured, looking at his grandfather and sister, Xiao Zikang also had a trace of yearning for the life of the Protector Mansion in the future.
Entering the gate into the city, it was naturally necessary for routine inspection, and the captain of Xiao Jingyuan's forward battalion took Xiao Jingyuan's token, and the soldiers who harvested it were immediately released.
"Hey, brother, I heard that General Xiao is looking for his grandson, see if this posture has been recovered?" A soldier defending the city looked at the distant convoy and whispered.
"Well, eight or nine are not far from ten, I heard it just now, no matter whether there is a little boy's voice in this car, and there is a girl's house, I guess, there is more than one." Another soldier defending the city lowered his voice.
"It's good now, the old general has a queen, whether it's the young master or the young lady, then the old general must not be spoiled to the edge of the sky, I just don't know, what kind of people are the two grandchildren of the old general?" This gossip is naturally curious to everyone.
"Hehe, let's do the thing of guarding the city, I can't hear anything, I'll know in two days, hurry up, someone is here again." The two soldiers defending the city stopped talking and continued to check the passers-by.
After entering the city gate and walking towards the city, there were more people and cars, the road was lined with shops, and the bustling sound was endless, Zisu now remembered the rules he learned in the Medicine King Valley.
This woman can race horses in the suburbs in twos and threes, but sitting in the car or sedan chair, under normal circumstances, you can't open the curtain and look out, which is rude, even if you look at it, you can only open a little gap.
However, because it is summer, the weather is hot, and the curtains of the carriage are also light and thin, and you can see the scenery outside with enough shadows, which is not too stuffy.
After walking through the lively streets, the bluestone slabs in front of the paving, gradually there are fewer pedestrians, and there are a lot of high-gate compounds, thinking that this is the so-called elite area, and the people who can live in this place must at least be officials of the imperial court above the third grade, and even have to be the nobles.
"It's not far from home, and I've already stopped sending someone to notify the house, the yard is ready for you, wait for you to settle down, and change it if you don't like it."
"Zisu, my grandfather told you earlier, your second uncle's family is still in the house, and many things in this house are in charge of your second uncle's mother-in-law, and when you come, this family will be handed over to you, and grandfather can rest assured."
"As for them, you find a small yard and send it away, and grandfather will live a clean life for two years."
Xiao Jingyuan told Zisu about the situation in the house on the way here, and also said that the middle feeds in the house were also handed over to Zisu to manage, anyway, the girl's family has to practice when she grows up, otherwise she will get married in the future, and she will be looked down upon by her in-laws at that time.
"Yes, grandfather, but the second uncle's family, I'm afraid it's not so easy to chase, right?" Zisu asked rhetorically.
Xiao Jingyuan's face is slightly red, if it is easy to get rid of it, after so many years, Xiao Jingyuan has already been driven away, and they can still let them stay in the Protectorate Mansion, and the noisy mansion is full of smoke and miasma, and even his reputation will be damaged.
"Ahem, my grandfather is a big man, how can he compete with a few women, besides, I was out of the house all those years, and I was not in the house all the year round, so I was negligent."
"When I come back, who in the capital doesn't know that your second uncle's family lives in the mansion, and if you want to get out, you are afraid of people's irresponsible opinions, besides, but the cost of a thousand taels of silver a year, my grandfather can still support it, and it can be regarded as repaying the kindness of the Xiao family at the beginning." Xiao Jingyuan remembered the past and sighed.
This is actually a long story, this Xiao Jingyuan is actually not the biological son of the old Xiao family, but the eldest son of the Xiao family died young, and the old lady Xiao was diagnosed by the doctor that she was not pregnant well, so she hugged Xiao Jingyuan back and wanted to continue the incense.
At the beginning, the Xiao family was quite good to Xiao Jingyuan, but who would have thought that when Xiao Jingyuan was five years old, Mrs. Xiao was pregnant again, and it was Xiao Jingfeng, Zisu's second uncle.
With his own son, this maintenance will naturally be unpleasant, if it weren't for the help of the villagers, Xiao Jingyuan might have starved to death.
When Xiao Jing was far older, the Xiao family squeezed him wholeheartedly, married his daughter-in-law to the second child first, and then fell out with the family in the matter of marrying his son Su's grandmother.
Therefore, Zisu has no good impression of this second uncle's family at all, and such a superb product should be closed and let the dog go out, and it is good to drive it out from a distance.
"After so many years, no matter how great the kindness is, it's over, the old lady, I will also give her a pension, I have no obligation to support them anymore, Zisu, you can deal with it as you want, grandfather will never interfere." Xiao Jingyuan threw this hot potato out.
"That's what you said, grandfather, as long as it doesn't hurt people's lives?" Zisu tilted his head to look at Xiao Jingyuan, and a mischievous look appeared on his face.
"Well, what my grandfather said, once he said it, it was difficult for the horse to chase!" Xiao Jingyuan smiled, let him lead the troops to fight, he can do anything, if you want to talk about the means of this back house, he is really afraid.
They haven't moved before because of the protection of Mrs. Xiao, but now the old lady has been gone for more than a year, and she has found her grandchildren's grandchildren, everything in this house is grandchildren's, and the rest have nothing to do with people, so you can roll it wherever you want, his hard-earned money for so many years is left to his grandson's family business and his granddaughter's dowry.
"Okay, then grandfather, you just wait on the side to watch the show, the custody will not hurt the reputation of our Protector Mansion, and let them roll out of the capital with their tails between their legs." Zisu's eyes flashed with a different light, the peaceful days have passed for too long, and it is good to occasionally find two or three little rats to play.
The three ancestors and grandchildren were talking, there was a simple and majestic Guangliang gate in front, and behind it was a courtyard with at least seven entrances in front and back, and two stone lions as high as the door were majestic, and many people guarded the door, watching the carriage approaching, and they all came up.
"Welcome to the old general, the two little masters are back home!" The housekeeper Xiao Zhong, with some of the subordinates in the house, knelt on his knees and spoke respectfully.
There were also several well-dressed men, women, and children, with a look of injustice on their faces, and there were two young girls who were looking at the people coming down from the carriage with a resentful look.
