03 She's really not polite
"Ancestor, the eldest lady is coming back soon, and the person in front said that her horse has already arrived on the street." A maid in an orange placket spoke inside, and ran in through the door, a little anxious and a little panting.
An old white-haired woman sitting in the room raised her eyes slightly. The old woman is very well maintained, the age of the ancient, the crane is red, the body is a dark brown crane placket long skirt, dignified and elegant, with a forehead of the same color, a green and turquoise jade in the middle of the forehead, it is not ordinary at a glance. "Isn't it just coming back? What is there to fuss about. She picked up the cane of the dragon's head and laid a pestle on the ground, and immediately a maid came to support her.
"Ancestor, it's better to let your granddaughter-in-law greet you." Mrs. Changlehou, who was standing on the side, hurriedly said. She had always known that her grandmother didn't like Murong Jin, but now Murong Jin is different from the past, and he is a general who is personally sealed by His Majesty, so she can't be lazy. She was afraid that her grandmother would go and say something unpleasant, which would not be good.
"That's it, why is it also our Hou Mansion's Miss Yan. still has military exploits, and even His Majesty has welcomed him out of the palace. The old lady hid the trace of impatience and disgust in her eyes, said calmly, and then walked to the door of the Changle Marquis Mansion with a mighty person.
Murong Chengxiang, Marquis of Changle, was already waiting at the door with the rest of the people in the mansion, and when he saw Mrs. Marquis Changle coming out with his grandmother, he hurriedly bowed and saluted.
The old woman waved her hand, "Excuse me." She looked at the big group standing at the door, she didn't say anything, and her heart was still pimple.
Her favorite back then was Murong Jin's father Murong Chengye, and that grandson was the most satisfying among her many children and grandchildren. Not to mention the handsomeness of the appearance, he is also both civil and military, that is, in the capital where famous sons are all over the city, Murong Chengye is also one of the best and has a magnificent head. But it was such an outstanding child, who had been gone for more than ten years, and who had been wronged, finally came back and washed away the shame of defeat, but brought back a granddaughter-in-law who was born as a bandit and a great-granddaughter who was not a man or a woman.
This is called the old woman Huo's really bad heart.
As soon as the granddaughter-in-law and great-granddaughter appeared in the capital, it simply made the entire Hou Mansion become the laughing stock of other people's families.
Oh mom, when her precious grandson brought that wild girl to herself, she thought she had seen the blind bear king! It's black! Strong! Do you still look like a girl's house? I don't even have eyes to see.
The sound of horses' hooves came from the corner of the street, pulling the old woman's thoughts back. Everyone's eyes were cast over there.
In the afterglow of the setting sun, a black horse hit the front, followed by twelve white horses towards the Changle Marquis Mansion, with a handsome and capable spirit that is difficult for others to imitate.
"It's Ah Jin who is back!" Changle Hou Yixi, he has already seen Murong Jin once in front of Guanghua Gate with His Majesty today, in fact, even he, who was the second uncle, did not dare to recognize that the person who was heroic and sassy at the palace gate was the black and strong niece back then. It's just that Murong Jin has become a little too shadowless, and he is like a different person, if it weren't for the vague appearance of a big brother between his eyebrows, he would have doubted whether this person had been transferred.
Is this Murong Jin?
The reaction of the people in the Hou Mansion is exactly the same as the reaction of the people and nobles on the street today.
This...... What is the difference, in front of the Hou Mansion, his chin dropped to the ground, and he forgot his manners in shock, and even the old woman who had never looked at Murong Jin stared at her, looking up and down at the person on the horse.
Murong Jin dismounted, tidied up his armor slightly, threw the snatch in his hand backwards, and the people behind her also dismounted, and immediately caught her spear neatly, the movements were smooth and coherent, as if she had practiced countless times.
"Great-grandmother, second uncle, second aunt, third uncle, third aunt, fifth uncle, fifth aunt. Ah Jin is back. Murong Jin was a little nervous, she lowered her eyes slightly, in order to hide the rare trace of panic in her eyes, she stepped forward calmly, knelt on one knee, clasped her hands into fists, and made a salute. In order to avoid trouble, she called all these elders, which was taught to her by the previous military advisor. The rules of the Hou Mansion are heavy, and she is afraid that she will make a mistake when she comes back. When she knelt, the twelve tall and handsome young men behind her also knelt down together, and their movements were uniform, but they didn't make any noise at all, which showed that they were well-trained and made people speechless.
"Hey, hey, just go home, just go home!" Changle Hou choked up a little excitedly, today in front of Guanghua Gate, he patronized and was surprised, and now seeing Murong Jin kneeling in front of him, he felt a little like crying, the eldest brother was at home when he was young, and he was very good to him. Although the eldest brother's life is the son of the Marquis of Changle, he inherited the title of Marquis of Changle after the martyrdom of his father and mother, but he suffered a lot, and soon after, the eldest brother and sister-in-law also died in battle, and the only blood of the eldest brother was kneeling in front of him.
He hurriedly came over to help, and secretly wiped a handful of tears with his sleeve.
Seeing that Hou Ye was crying, the others were also quite moved.
Even the old lady Huo, who had never liked Murong Jin, had tears in her eyes, but she still held back.
The Murong family of Changle Hou has been a general for generations, with countless casualties, and it can be said that the brand of Changle Hou is built up with the blood of countless Murong family members. If you always shed tears, then the tears in front of Murong's house can be gathered into a river.
"What a system to cry and cry! Don't stand at the door, let's all go inside. Huo Shisheng held back his tears, slammed the ground with a faucet cane, and said with majesty.
"Yes, yes, look, Ah Jin is happy to be back, I have returned the beans. Don't stand all up. Hurry back. Only then did Marquis Murong come back to his senses, and under the leadership of the old lady, he brought everyone into the house.
As soon as Murong Jin sat down in the flower hall, the twelve young men stood in three rows behind her.
They don't squint, but they provoke the girls and boys in Murong Mansion to sweep them one by one.
Now the remaining girls in the Hou Mansion are younger than Murong Jin, because those who are similar or older are now married. The daughter of the Hou Mansion who was raised in the deep boudoir, where have I seen many outsiders, even if she accompanied her mother out to the garden banquet, she also saw the rich and noble sons of the capital, all of them were handsome and elegant, with beautiful clothes and beautiful crowns, where were they like these people, standing there like a blade.
They are all tempered on the battlefield with their figures and temperaments, fighting over there, exuding a male-unique atmosphere, and the little girls who provoked Murong Fu were all red-faced, standing behind their parents, they couldn't help but turn their heads and ears, and they couldn't control their eyes, and couldn't help but look at Murong Jin and the men behind her, and the more they looked, the redder their faces became.
When the old lady saw this, her brows furrowed.
"Akin. You're back home, so don't put on a posture in the barracks. After she sat down peacefully, she said unhappily, "All the people sitting in this flower hall are your sisters, and you are the young lady of the Hou Mansion, what is it that you are always followed by a large group of men?" Let them wait outside. ”
Murong Jin hurriedly clenched his fists, "Yes." With a wave of her hand, the people behind her turned to the right in unison, and walked out with the same pace.
Such a neat and uniform movement, the action is crisp, and the group of girls who provoked followed their eyes until everyone was gone, and then they reluctantly withdrew their eyes.
Murong Jin really felt so embarrassed.
What should I say?
She swept the people in the house, and all of them were piled up with gold and jade, like pearls and jade, and she seemed to be an alien. But these are her family members, and she promised her father and mother to live well, return to the capital well, return home, and get along with her family well. She even promised her father that she would listen to her great-grandmother well, not disobey her great-grandmother, and honor her for her father.
Alas, if it weren't for this, now she is estimated to have smeared oil on the soles of her feet and run away without a trace, looking at the entire Murong Hou Mansion, no one should be able to stop her.
It's really different.
The old lady secretly observed Murong Jin a few times, and saw that she was sitting in a proper manner, although this sitting posture was ...... Da Ma Jin Dao, like a man, is really a bit miserable, but compared with when he was a child, it is a lot quieter. I also experienced things outside, so I erased the overlord-like temper when I was a child.
In the end, it is Miss Yan of the Hou Mansion, who has been living outside, and since she has come back, she has been taught the rules slowly, and she can't always carry the breath of a bandit.
Nineteen years old, not small! It is a woman who always has to marry.
"Come back this time, are you still leaving?" The old lady asked pointedly.
Murong Jin hurriedly clenched his fists, "Back to my great-grandmother's words, I have handed over the military power, Your Majesty is merciful, and I am named the general of Guangling, commanding the 50,000 Xiao cavalry battalion in Gyeonggi, and responsible for the guards of Gyeonggi." If there is no war at the border, I think I should not leave. ”
Oh my! To whom is this addressing? Is it so rude in front of His Majesty?
The old lady frowned.
"Since you don't leave, you are not too young, from tomorrow, let your second aunt take you to learn what your daughter should learn."
Murong Jin scratched his head, "But I still have to go to the Xiao Cavalry Camp." ”
"Then wait until you learn at home!" The old lady said unhappily.
Remembering what he had promised his father, Murong Jin nodded very obediently.
Alas, but she sighed in her heart, and said to the second aunt sitting opposite her from the bottom of her heart, "I guess I will have to worry about the second aunt in the future." ”
Mrs. Changle Hou was busy, "Don't bother, don't bother." ”
Murong Jin thought, what she said was true, why did the second aunt feel that she was being polite to her?
It's okay for her fingers to fight in a battle, but with an embroidery needle or something...... Murong Jin himself felt a little embarrassed, he really couldn't open it.
