Chapter Ninety-One: Arriving in Beijing

As soon as Xu Shiqiu opened his mouth suspiciously, Mrs. Xu nodded at him.

Seeing that Mrs. Xu nodded, Xu Shiqiu opened her mouth and continued: "What did the mayor of this Yi Town notice? ”

"Presumably so." After Mrs. Xu replied to Xu Shiqiu, she continued: "But because we sent people here in advance, those children didn't run away. ”

As soon as Mrs. Xu's words fell, Xu Shiqiu immediately answered: "Mother, the people who went to the county, have you come back?" ”

Hearing Xu Shiqiu's question, Mrs. Xu shook her head and said, "I didn't come back, but it should be almost time." As soon as Mrs. Xu finished speaking, there was a knock on the door of her room.

Hearing this knock on the door, Dong Shu, who was originally sitting obediently and hugging Yuan Xi, immediately blurted out: "It must be that the people who went to the county have returned, there must be good news." ”

Dong Shu said casually, but Mrs. Xu and Xu Shiqiu, who heard her words, couldn't help but look at her.

Sensing that her mother-in-law and Xianggong were paying attention to her eyes, Dong Shu was puzzled: "Mother, Xianggong, what are you looking at me?" ”

As soon as Dong Shu's words fell, Mrs. Xu and Xu Shiqiu immediately glanced at each other.

Before they could speak, the servant outside the door had already said loudly, "Old lady, the servant is back." ”

"Well, come in."

Because the manservant who went to the county came back, Dong Shu did not continue to ask the question just now.

And after Mrs. Xu spoke, the manservant outside the door also walked in directly.

The male servant bowed in, and after entering the house, he first saluted Mrs. Xu, Xu Shiqiu, and Dong Shu, and then said, "Old lady, the servant has sent the news to the county office. Zhang Xianling asked the servant to bring back a message, saying, "Let you rest assured, he will arrange this matter immediately." ’

If the old lady is in a hurry to return to Beijing, she can stay with someone, and when the matter is resolved, he will write to you in person and give you a detailed description. ”

As soon as the manservant's words fell, Mrs. Xu nodded directly and said, "This county order is quite clear." After saying this, Mrs. Xu looked at the manservant and said, "You go down to rest first, I'm tired for a long time." ”

"Yes, the servant will go and rest."

After the manservant retreated, Dong Shu looked at Mrs. Xu and said, "Mother, in that case, can we go back to Beijing?" After saying this, Dong Shu didn't wait for Mrs. Xu to speak, and continued: "Sister and Yanzhu are in a hurry in the capital. ”

"Mother, that's what the lady said. We should still go back to Beijing as soon as possible, my sister and Yanzhu are afraid that they will be in a hurry in the capital. ”

After Xu Shiqiu spoke, Mrs. Xu couldn't help but nodded.

Dong Shu saw that her father-in-law and mother-in-law were nodding, so she continued: "Then we are leaving tomorrow morning?" ”

Originally, they would stay here because Xu Jie sensed that there was something wrong with Yizhen, and then he was detained.

Now that the affairs of Yizhen have been taken over by Zhang County, they can naturally leave.

"Well, take a break tonight, and we'll be able to leave tomorrow."

After Xu Shiqiu answered Dong Shu, he instructed Ling Xiang to let her inform He Ce and inform him of the news.

After Ling Xiang left, Xu Shiqiu and Dong Shu also left Old Lady Xu and returned to their own house.

As soon as he returned to their room, Dong Shu stared at Xu Shiqiu and said, "Xianggong, do you have something to say to me?" ”

As soon as Dong Shu's words fell, Xu Shiqiu was immediately stunned.

After seeing the smile in Dong Shu's Xinyue eyes, Xu Shiqiu shook his head with a smile and said, "Lady, do you really want to know?" ”

"Yes." After Dong Shu blinked her crescent moon eyes, she looked at Xu Shiqiu and continued: "I always feel that my father-in-law and mother-in-law have something to hide from me, and every time you look at each other, I feel that you have something to hide from me. ”

Hearing what the little lady said, Xu Shiqiu could only shake her head helplessly and said, "Lady, in fact, you should be able to guess this." After saying this, Xu Shiqiu saw that Dong Shu had been looking at him, so he continued: "Lady, do you remember what I said before that you were blessed?" ”

"yes, yes."

As soon as Dong Shu heard Xu Shiqiu's words, she guessed what he was going to say next.

"Xianggong has always felt that I am blessed, but I didn't believe it." After saying this, Dong Shu pursed her lips before continuing: "It's just that if Xianggong thinks I'm blessed, then I will believe it." ”

As soon as Dong Shu's words fell, Xu Shiqiu hooked his lips and smiled: "Lady, have you found out." Every time something happens, you just have to say something, and it will be resolved as you say. ”

Xu Shiqiu was afraid that Dong Shu wouldn't be able to remember these things, so he immediately opened his mouth and said a few things before.

When Xu Shiqiu spoke, Dong Shu's eyes widened in surprise.

After Xu Shiqiu finished speaking, Dong Shu said nervously: "Xianggong, is it bad for me to be like this?" ”

Xu Shiqiu didn't expect that his little lady would be nervous after hearing what he said.

He raised his hand to hold Dong Shu's hand, patted it gently, and then said, "Don't worry, lady, no one else has discovered these things now." ”

Hearing Xianggong's words, Dong Shu breathed a sigh of relief.

Although Dong Shu is not smart, she is not stupid.

She knew that she was different from everyone else.

Since it's different, isn't that bad?

Xu Shiqiu turned his head and saw Dong Shu's thoughts, and after he raised his hand and patted Dong Shu's hand, he comforted her and said, "Lady, don't worry, even if there is something similar in the future, I will help you cover it up." ”

Xu Shiqiu saw that Dong Shu was worried, and hurriedly talked about other things.

Dong Shu has a good temperament, Xu Shiqiu said something else for a while, and she forgot about the previous things.

Because the matter of Yizhen was suddenly solved, Xu Shiqiu and they left Yizhen directly after resting for one night.

However, before leaving, Xu Shiqiu still left a few people down.

The people in the bright line continued to live in the inn, and the two people in the dark line were entrusted to He Ce's care.

"This is my servant, we need to return to Beijing as soon as possible. When Yizhen is in trouble, you can follow them to the capital for a walk around the capital when you have time. ”

Although he only has a one-sided relationship with He Ce, Xu Shiqiu still likes him very much.

After all, things in Yizhen have happened for so long, and for such a long time, He Ce must be the only one who has discovered that something is wrong.

But the only one who really dares to say it is He Ce.

He Ce was very happy after receiving Xu Shiqiu's invitation, and hurriedly promised him that he would definitely go to the capital to see when Yizhen was in trouble.

After leaving Yizhen, Xu Shiqiu and his party continued to walk towards the capital.

This time there was no other thing on the road, although there was another day of rain on the road to delay the trip, but before the end of April, Xu Shiqiu and they still arrived in the capital.

The Xu family's house is in the west of the capital, and although the old general Xu has passed away, the Xu family's house has not been taken back.

The Five Princes' Mansion and the Jiang family had already sent people to guard the city gate, and as soon as the Xu family's convoy appeared, the servants of the two families guarding here immediately stepped forward to salute.

"Old lady, the princess specially asked the servants to guard here, and you have worked hard all the way."

"Old lady, I can be regarded as looking forward to you, the eldest girl has been talking about you and the third lady every day these days."

Mrs. Xu sat in the mule cart at the front, and when she heard this, she still sat firmly in the mule cart, but she didn't forget to say: "Well, you guys have worked hard here, look at the reward." ”

As soon as Mrs. Xu's words fell, the servant woman beside her directly lifted the curtain and got off the mule cart, and rewarded each of the servants of the Five Princes' Mansion and the Jiang family with an ordinary cyan purse.

After the two of them received the reward and saluted and thanked them, Mrs. Xu spoke again: "You go back and tell your master that I will rest here for two days, and there will be a post delivered to your house later." ”

Now that I have arrived in the capital, I naturally can't be as casual as before.

If you invite someone as a guest, you must send the post first.

If she wasn't in the capital, it could be that Mrs. Xu wanted to invite her daughter and granddaughter, but now that she was in the capital, it was Mrs. Xu who invited the five princesses and the young lady of the Jiang family to come to the Xu family as guests.

These things, after the convoy arrived at the Xu family's house, Mrs. Xu found Dong Shu and specially told Dong Shu about these things.

"Now that you have arrived in the capital, in the next few days, you need to come to me every day to learn how to manage the house and how to contact other ladies." After Mrs. Xu looked at Dong Shu and said this, she sighed and continued: "While my mother still has the spirit, I can teach you more." But don't be afraid, you're smart and you'll learn it soon. ”

Dong Shu didn't expect that she would have to learn these things, although she was scared, but in the end she still looked at Mrs. Xu and nodded: "Don't worry, mother, I will definitely study seriously." ”

Dong Shu didn't know how much distress she would bring to herself in the coming days what she said today.
