Ye Shuo's reaction was really exaggerated, and after beating himself, he was busy looking for his luggage, and then used the fastest speed to take out two letters and hand them to Mrs. Xu and Xu Shiqiu respectively.

"Third uncle, my mother told me that I must hand over this letter to you, and I must wait for your reply before I can return to Beijing."

Ye Shuo looked at Xu Shiqiu's seriousness, which also made Xu Shiqiu, who originally planned to go back and read the letter again, curious about the letter his sister wrote to him for a while.

He took the letter sent by Ye Shuo, glanced at the envelope first, and then looked up at Ye Shuo.

When Ye Shuo blinked strangely, he looked down at the letter in his hand again.

"Since you say so, then I will read the letter now, and when I have read it, I will write you a reply." Xu Shiqiu said casually, because he thought that the letter his sister wrote to him would still let him relax as before, and not care too much about the content of his fortune.

But today, when he opened his sister's letter, he only glanced at it, and suddenly became serious.

Dong Shu originally wanted to stretch out his head to look, but after discovering Xu Shiqiu's serious look, he immediately stopped his movements, not only did not stretch his head out to look again, but also called the servant to change a cup of hot tea for Xu Shiqiu, and left him to drink it after reading the letter.

Dong Shu's movements were smooth and natural, and at a glance, he knew that it was not the first time he had taken care of Xu Shiqiu so silently.

And Xu Shiqiu, who would look at the letter, did not look very good.

Xu Shiqiu read it very slowly this time, a three-page letter, he repeated it, and after pondering it three times, he refolded the letter in his hand and carefully put it back in the envelope.

Mrs. Xu and Dong Shu are both people who know Xu Shiqiu, and when the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law saw Xu Shiqiu's actions, they knew that he didn't plan to tell others the content of the letter.

Seeing Xu Shiqiu make such a move, Dong Shu was not curious, but Mrs. Xu was very curious.

The letter her daughter wrote to her was greeting her body as always, and said that her recent condition was no different from before.

But she can now be sure that her daughter's letter to her brother is definitely not ordinary.

"Shi Qiu, what did your sister say that made it difficult for you?" After Mrs. Xu opened her mouth to test Xu Shiqiu, and after seeing that his expression had not changed, she continued: "If your sister says something that makes it difficult for you, if you think it's okay, talk to your mother, and your mother will help you find a way." ”

Mrs. Xu looked at Xu Shiqiu and just finished saying this, Xu Shiqiu looked at her and shook her head and said, "In this matter, my mother can't help me." Don't worry, I can take care of it. ”

After saying this to Mrs. Xu, Xu Shiqiu glanced up at Ye Shuo and asked, "Does your father know about the letter your mother wrote to me?" ”

"Know! Third uncle, you don't know that my father must go out every day, as long as he stays in the house, he will definitely stay by my mother's side. When Ye Shuo talked about this, he obviously showed a greasy look, "When my mother handed me these two letters, I took them from my father, and my father also told me that I must hand over this letter to my third uncle." ”

Ye Shuo felt tired of thinking that his father couldn't do without his mother every day.

The eldest brother had long said that in his father's eyes, only their mother was the most important, and the three brothers were in the way.

Because his younger brother is not in good health, his father's attitude towards him may be better.

But the two of them, it's fine not to lean on their mother's side, but if they don't run to their mother's side unconsciously, it must be in the way in the eyes of their father!

The expression on Ye Shuo's face was so easy to understand, seeing him show such a look, Xu Shiqiu let him go.

"Shi Qiu, your sister's letter to you, but what's the big deal?" When Mrs. Xu heard Ye Shuo say that his father told him to hand over the letter to his third uncle, she realized that this letter from her daughter to her son would definitely not be simple.

But in the same way, she had already thought that judging from Xu Shiqiu's expression just now, he would not tell herself.

"Mother, you really don't need to worry about this, I will think carefully about the reply to my sister."

After Xu Shiqiu unexpectedly rejected Mrs. Xu's inquiry, he looked at Ye Shuo again and said, "Shuo'er, your mother's letter, the third uncle should think about how to reply, it just so happens that you are also here to rest for a few more days." ”

"Okay, I'll listen to the third uncle." Ye Shuo didn't seem to be surprised at all by Xu Shiqiu's reaction, and after watching him say this, he looked at Dong Shu with a smile and said, "Third aunt, I heard my cousin say that the food you cook is very delicious, and my cousin and I will go to your place for dinner at noon tomorrow?" ”

"Naturally, I don't cook much, but there are still a few specialty dishes that your uncle likes to eat." Dong Shu had a sincere smile on her face, and after watching Ye Shuo finish saying this, she hurriedly asked again: "What do you like to eat, the third aunt will go back and let the big kitchen write it down, and buy it early tomorrow morning and send it to Shihuan Courtyard." ”

"I like to eat meat, as long as it's meat!" Ye Shuo looked at the third aunt with bright eyes After saying this, he saw that the third uncle was staring at him very unkindly, and hurriedly added: "The third aunt's craftsmanship is so good, no matter what she does, it must be delicious!" ”

"It's not as good as you say." Although Dong Shu's face was a little blushing after Ye Shuo opened his mouth, the beautiful crescent moon eyes were bright and scary because of Ye Shuo's praise.

Xu Shiqiu was originally very unhappy, but after seeing the little lady's sparkling eyes and undisguised joy all over his body, he suppressed his unhappiness.

Since the little lady is willing, then he can endure it.

But now, he seems to understand his brother-in-law's feelings.

Seeing that the little lady had made an appointment with her nephew and niece to eat the dishes at noon tomorrow, Xu Shiqiu took Dong Shu back to Shihuan Courtyard directly.

As soon as he returned to Shihuan Courtyard, Xu Shiqiu hugged Dong Shu and asked, "Lady, do you want to live in the capital?" After asking this, Xu Shiqiu seemed to regret it a little, and said busily: "Look at me, why did you mention this matter again." After saying this, Xu Shiqiu thought about changing the topic quickly, but something wrong with him still attracted Dong Shu's attention.

"Xianggong, do you have something to hide from me?" Dong Shu looked at Xu Shiqiu as soon as he finished saying this, and saw that his eyes seemed to be a little evasive, so he hurriedly blinked his crescent moon eyes and looked at him seriously and said, "Xianggong, if you have something to say, just tell me directly, don't do this." ”

Xu Shiqiu felt very soft-hearted when he saw Dong Shu showing such an expression, his little lady is so good, if he really returns to Beijing as an official as his sister said, can she adapt?

Xu Shiqiu's temperament since childhood caused him to like to think a lot about things, and every time he would imagine all kinds of possibilities in his heart before giving up.

It's the same today.

He is actually conflicted in his heart.

He actually wants to return to Beijing, because any man has the intention of working hard to make a career in his heart, but he is afraid.

Because he only has the little lady by his side now, he will not affect the people around him, once he returns to Beijing, as long as he goes out to do things, the little lady is destined to be exposed in front of people.

But can a little lady with such a temperament adapt to life in the capital?

He wanted to tell the little lady, but he was worried about the little lady's temperament, and when he said it, she would not ask anything, didn't want to, and directly supported him to return to Beijing.

The more I think about it, the more hesitant I become, not to mention that Xu Shiqiu's temperament, who loves association, always thinks of a lot of possibilities before things happen.

What if the little lady arrives in the capital, someone thinks she is special and wants to snatch her?

Dong Shu waited for a long time and didn't wait for Xu Shiqiu to answer herself, after thinking about it, she looked at Xu Shiqiu and continued: "Xianggong, if you don't understand it for a while, then don't say it yet, but no matter what, I will accompany you." ”

As soon as Dong Shu's words came out, Xu Shiqiu's distracted thoughts were instantly pulled back.

Looking at the little lady's serious expression, Xu Shiqiu was stunned for a long time, then looked at her and nodded seriously: "Well, I will think it through carefully." ”

Xu Shiqiu was worried about things in his heart, and when he ate at Mrs. Xu's place in the evening, his expression looked like he had something on his mind.

Seeing Xu Shiqiu's expression, Mrs. Xu guessed and understood that it must be the letter her daughter wrote to him that was wrong.

After Xu Shiqiu and Dong Shu finished eating and left, Mrs. Xu called Ye Shuo to her side and asked him if he knew what the letter said.

"Grandmother, how could I know about the letter written by my mother to my third uncle."

Ye Shuo said this, but the expression on his whole face was full of 'I know, you can ask me again, I may tell you'.

Glancing at Ye Shuo, Mrs. Xu spoke again: "How could you not know, according to your temperament, even if you didn't know at the time, along the way, you would definitely find a way to peek at what was said in the letter." ”

Old Mrs. Xu knew Ye Shuo's temperament very well, and as soon as these words came out, Ye Shuo, who was still smug on her face just now, was instantly deflated, glanced at Old Lady Xu, and then said again: "Then grandmother may guess how I saw the letter?" After saying this, Ye Shuo didn't forget to say proudly: "When my uncle got the letter, the envelope was still sealed. ”

"Have you forgotten that your grandfather was a great general?" Old Lady Xu watched Ye Shuo finish saying this, and saw that his expression was instantly stunned, and hurriedly continued: "Since he taught your mother how to open letters without a trace, why didn't he teach me?" Also, do you think your uncle won't be able to see that the letter was opened by you?

Don't forget, your third uncle was taught by your mother for a few years when he was young. Your mother will give these things to your brother, why not to his brother? ”

According to Mrs. Xu's temperament, in fact, she doesn't like to hit the younger generations so much, especially the grandchildren.

Although Ye Shuo was not born by her daughter, it was also born by her nephew and raised by her daughter.

She didn't treat Ye Shuo as an outsider at all, she was raised as her grandson, so it was really very rare for her to say these things.

Ye Shuo was a little stunned after hearing Mrs. Xu's words, and after a short period of stunnedness, he had to slowly speak under the gaze of Mrs. Xu: "The emperor's grandfather revealed that he wanted to establish another crown prince a year ago, and all the uncles began to win over generals with military power.

Uncle Duan talked to the imperial grandfather about the military power in his hands, and his grandmother sent back the news from the palace, saying that he had heard the imperial grandfather say that "of course it is the heir who returned it to him", so he asked his mother to write to ask the Xu family if there was a suitable person to take over the military power.

Daddy meant that the second cousin of the eldest uncle's family was suitable, but the mother still insisted that the third uncle was the most suitable candidate for the Xu family. ”

Ye Shuo didn't open his mouth, and when he opened his mouth, it was amazing.

Mrs. Xu didn't expect that Ye Shuo not only knew what was written in that letter, but also knew so many things.

She frowned and pondered for a moment, and after seeing that Ye Shuo did not continue to speak, she looked at him and said seriously: "In addition to telling me, have you revealed this matter to others?" ”

"Nope!" Ye Shuo was also taken aback by Mrs. Xu's momentary serious look, and after he finished replying to Mrs. Xu, he said seriously: "I only told my grandmother about this, I just want to say that I haven't met anyone else along the way." ”

"That's good, Shuo'er, remember, forget the letters you saw, and forget the news that I don't know where you heard it. It's not something you can do right now. "Old Mrs. Xu is different from Ye Shuo.

Ye Shuo may have just thought it was amusement when she heard this, but she could deduce one thing from these words.

The capital, I'm afraid it's going to be chaotic again.
