After Xu Huai finished reporting to Mei's family, he came out of the plum garden and went back to his home.

Since the previous drought, he took his old lady Du from his hometown to Jinju, and now a few members of the family can live here.

Although doing things for women makes him feel a little worthless for a full stomach. But the courtyard of Sanjin, the rich benefits are all real, and this is enough. And if you do a good job for the county guard's wife, maybe you will have a chance to get into the eyes of the county keeper in the future.

As soon as Xu Huai arrived home, he hurriedly went to the main courtyard to find Du's.

Du Shi saw that his son, who had not been at home for a long time, came over, and even the grandson on the side couldn't care about teasing, so he got off the Taishi chair and walked towards Xu Huaiyi: "My son! It's time for you to go home, this new month hasn't come out yet, so what are you busy all day long! ”

Xu Huaiyi waved his hand a little impatiently, and said bluntly: "Mother, are you sure that Xu Yuan is dead?" ”

Xu Huaiyi didn't recognize her as Xu Yuan thought. On the contrary, with just one glance, he remembered it clearly.

Du Shi was stunned, but he didn't expect his son to come back and ask about this.

Referring to the previous cheap, life-like cub, Du Shi's face subconsciously appeared with disgust, and said, "Then what's not? A little big Nizi escaped the famine, how many days did she live? ”

Du Shi thought that his son was to blame himself, and hurriedly said: "What are you doing when you suddenly mention this, everyone is dead!" Don't you want to blame your mother? ”

Xu Huai's ears hurt a little when he heard this set of words, and he helped Du Shi to sit back on the chair and said, "My son doesn't dare." Just today...... I seem to see her again. ”

When Du Shi heard this, he immediately shuddered, and scolded sharply: "What nonsense is the blue sky talking about in the daytime!" You've hit a ghost, haven't you? ”

Xu Huai stroked the hem of his clothes, sat down by himself, waved his hand and said, "Naturally not, my son is not so confused." I saw her at the banquet of the county warden's wife. After inquiring, she seems to be recognized as a daughter by the Duke of Xu's mansion now. ”

Du Shi was stunned by his son's words, first, he was shocked that Xu Yuan was still alive, and secondly, he was ......

"What do you say? Guogong Mansion? What a national mansion! ”

Xu Huaiyi was very calm and said, "Mother, don't worry, if it is really Xu Yuan, it will be a good thing for us." ”

Xu Yuan had no way of knowing what was happening here, but after she returned to Xu's Mansion, she also fell into thinking because of this incident.

After breaking away from the sadness that belonged to the original owner, Xu Yuan calmed down.

There is no information in the memory of the original owner about where his father was an official. Why did Xu Huaiyi appear here, could it be that he was the foreign appointment of Jinju before?

That's a coincidence, isn't it......

The key matter cannot be humanized by outsiders, Xu Yuan sent everyone else aside and pulled Xiaolan into the house.

Xiao Lan saw that Xu Yuan was sneaky, and couldn't help asking, "Miss, who are you?" ”

Xu Yuan saw that there was no one outside, so she lowered her voice and said to her: "Do you remember, where did my original father work?" ”

Xiao Lan was taken aback and asked, "Why did Miss suddenly ask this?" ”

Xu Yuan replied, "I saw him appear in front of the county guard at the flower viewing banquet today. I don't know if I'm wrong, probably not......"

Xiao Lan's eyes widened, and he tried to think about it for a long time, and said, "I used to ...... It seems that when you hear someone talk, it sounds like you're in a place called Leaving the City? ”

Xu Yuan hurriedly said: "Leaving the city? Are you sure it's off? Jinju has a subordinate place called Liseong. ”

Xiaolan's words were uncertain: "I can't remember it really...... Miss, why don't you go and ask the second young master? ”

"Yes, you can ask him ......"

Xu Yuan wanted to leave, but when he thought that Xu Chusheng had left the house earlier, he didn't know what to do at this time.

She thought about it, took a pen and paper, and wrote a letter in which she wrote down her problem. sealed the letter, took the jade pendant that Xu Chusheng gave her back before, and went to the main courtyard to find Cheng.

Cheng heard that Xu Yuan was looking for Xu Chusheng, and couldn't help but wonder: "Yuan'er, why do you suddenly want to find your second brother?" ”

The reason for this is naturally not the same as Cheng's Dao, Xu Yuan thought of the reason on the way here: "The second brother took a jade pendant to me before, saying that it was my childhood." But I think that jade is spiritual, and since the second brother has been raised for so many years, it should be his now. I wanted to return it to my second brother before, but I forgot, and now that I think about it, he is gone again. ”

Cheng bowed slightly, and said, "Jade will also recognize the Lord, you are reasonable." Why don't you give me the jade pendant, and I'll send someone to your second brother." ”

This sentence hit Xu Yuan's heart, and she hurriedly said: "Mother, then I have brought you the jade pendant and a letter I wrote to my second brother, don't peek at what is written in the letter." ”

Cheng was amused and said with a smile: "Yo, what are you going to whisper to the second brother?" ”

Xu Yuan was a little anxious, and shouted in a long voice: "Mother-"

Cheng gently knocked on Xu Yuan's head and said, "Okay, don't read the whispers that Yuan'er wrote to the second brother." ”

Xu Yuan took out the jade pendant and letter from his arms.

Cheng took it together, gently stroked the jade pendant, and took the rope of the jade pendant to look at it carefully, and said, "I still remember that back then, you were not much bigger than this jade pendant, just a little bigger." ”

While speaking, Cheng was still making a gesture in front of Xu Yuan's eyes.

Xu Yuan's face was embarrassed, and this time she took off her voice longer: "Mother-"

Cheng was happy, and mentioned the matter of changing the yard: "I asked my husband to calculate the auspicious day for moving the house, the latest one is the twenty-first of this month, if this day passes, and then there is an auspicious day in March." ”

Xu Yuan snapped his fingers and calculated: "Oh, then I have to go back to the house and clean up, it's going to be the end soon." ”

Cheng said: "It's not so urgent, after you go back, just tell the maid to go and gather it, and let the steward list it." I would like to ask, do you have success in managing your own yard? ”

After all, it is an adult's soul, and Xu Yuan is still somewhat sure of one acre and three points of land. She raised her little head, looked at Cheng Shi with a pair of round eyes and said, "I don't dare to say that there is, but there is still some bottom." Even if there is anything that can't, I'll just ask you. ”

"Okay, I'm going to appoint a housekeeper in your yard too. Such as maids and the like, I will tell your sister-in-law later, let her divide some of the family children, and you will pick from among them. ”

Cheng took Xu Yuan to think about it for a while, and then asked Xu Yuan to finalize the name of the new courtyard.

After thinking about it for a while, Xu Yuan suddenly had a flash of inspiration, thinking that it was in the twenty-first year, stretched out his finger and lightly traced on a few cases, and said, "It's better to call it 'Twenty-one Houses'." ”

Cheng Shi was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "Yuan'er, you are really ...... But that's a good name, so be it. ”
