Chapter 440: The original owner returns
In the third year of Kaiyang, the domestic wind and rain were smooth, and the northern nomads were beaten north and retreated thousands of miles under the leadership of the Marquis of Ningyuan.
At the same time, reactionary forces are also blooming everywhere in the country, and the two largest forces have gathered hundreds of thousands of troops, and Dayan is still in turmoil.
In late spring and early summer, a light rain had just fallen in the sky, knocking down all the flowers that were blooming just right in the Ningyuan Marquis Mansion, forming a red array on the ground.
It was also at this time that two people suddenly came outside the gate of the Hou Mansion, and they had to see Ning Yuanhou at the door.
When the news came into the outer study, Ning Yuanhou was staring at the imperial court's newspaper in the study, and the news above made him say three good things, and the joy on his face could not be hidden. Even when he heard two irrelevant people outside the door making trouble, he didn't take it to heart, and with a wave of his hand, he let the porter coax him out directly, and it was okay.
The two people outside the door, seeing the little brother who delivered the letter inside and returning, all showed joy on their faces, and they were busy trying to meet them. But the little guy suddenly took out a big broom from behind the door, and swept it with two people.
The two of them panicked, jumped down the steps, looked inside from a distance, and saw the little guy standing in front of the steps with a big broom, looking at them condescendingly, his face turned white, and he hurriedly ran all the way along the corner of the Ningyuan Marquis Mansion. I kept running a long way and stopped, holding my stomach and panting.
At this time, a corner door in the Marquis of Ningyuan's mansion opened a crack from the inside with a squeak, and a maid-like person walked out of the door with a blue child, and when he saw someone outside the door, he was obviously stunned for a moment, and looked at the two of them vigilantly.
The two of them were all dressed in the cheapest coarse cloth clothes, and when they ran just now, their hair was messy, their faces were flushed, and their breath was very unstable.
The maid only looked at them for a moment, then looked away. In the past two years, she has not seen such a person, from poor families, for stuttering, and grabbing food with dogs......
Watching the maid go farther and farther, the two people who were originally squatting on the ground gasping for breath glanced at each other, and their eyes suddenly became clear.
……
……
The old lady's courtyard was once again overcrowded, and all the masters of the houses gathered together, and because they didn't know what was going on, they all whispered about it.
When Xiuzhu entered the door, he saw the old lady sitting in the center at first glance, with a condescending momentum, while the second seat next to her was empty and there was no one sitting. At the bottom sat the second master, the second wife, the third master, the third wife, the fourth master, the fourth wife, the fifth master, the fifth wife, the sixth master, the sixth wife, and finally the seventh master sat there alone. Behind them were patches of their children. Only the seventh master is still unmarried, and naturally there are no children behind him, sitting there alone, his weak body bent out of a particularly exaggerated posture.
Xiuzhu is the most troublesome party like this, just to see a big circle of gifts, not only she has to greet the elders, but also to accept the gifts from the juniors, in short, every time it is noisy, I can't tell who is who.
When Xiuzhu stood in a fixed seat, Ning Yuanhou also came.
Xiu Zhu couldn't help but be surprised, Marquis Ning Yuan rarely appeared here, and even if he appeared for the first time, he came and went in a hurry. This time, he sat down beside the old lady, glanced at Xiuzhu with burning eyes, and then asked softly: "Mother, where is the person you said I should see?" ”
"There's no hurry." The old lady waved her hand, glanced meaningfully in the direction of Xiuzhu, and said slowly: "We always have to see, who is this person, what do you want to do?" ”
Ning Yuanhou was stunned for a moment, followed the old lady's gaze, and saw that it was his son and daughter-in-law standing opposite, and his heart couldn't help jumping: Could it be that this child has some trick to catch? But after thinking about all the things after I returned home, I felt that it was unlikely, this girl was slippery, and it was really unlikely that she would leave anyone with any handles.
However, looking at the old lady's appearance, she looked determined to win...... Isn't it easy?
Xiu Zhu didn't know what the old lady was doing when she suddenly called everyone together, in the past two years, she had lived a cautious life in the Ningyuan Marquis Mansion, and she thought that she had no handle to arrest, so she stayed safely until now. Could it be that something unusual could be today?
Because he didn't have a name, there was a whisper below, Xiuzhu listened with his ears pricked up, and he couldn't help but smile at all.
At this time, the old lady "coughed" heavily, and everyone in the whole room was stunned. The surroundings were quiet, and everyone looked at her with puzzled eyes.
At this time, outside the door curtain, light and shadow flickered, and two people walked in.
Xiuzhu Dingqing went to see it, but he was frightened.
The man who walked in front looked tired, his steps were heavy, and the skin on his face was also yellow and white due to malnutrition. It is obvious that she should have been a beauty before, her facial features are very delicate, the corners of her eyes are full of wrinkles at this time, and her skin is a little loose, and she looks like she is in her thirties.
The latter one obviously looks much younger than the previous one, but it is not easy to meet by looking at the demeanor. Xiu Zhu glanced at her face, her body was obviously for a while, and she quickly recognized those two people, but it was Li Miaoxian and Furong who had been away for nearly three years.
When Xiuzhu saw them, he was excited in his heart, and then looked at the two faces that looked very vicissitudes, and he didn't dare to recognize them for a while. As they said when they left, Li Miaoxian himself took a fancy to a scholar, and the scholar asked them to say that he was still a capable person, but in less than three years, how could these two women ......
Xiuzhu was surprised, and the two of them, accompanied by the maid, walked in and saluted the high-ranking people in the house. The gaze swept over Xiuzhu, and a trace of panic instantly floated across the faces of the two people, but this emotion was lost for a moment, and in the end, all of them were worried about facing the superior.
The old lady glanced at them and asked, "Say, who are you?" I heard that you have been wandering around in front of our house every day lately, what are your intentions? ”
As soon as they heard this, the two people who were originally standing "plopped" twice, and all knelt on the ground, and kept kowtowing to the front, and at the same time, the voice was like a mosquito from the mouth of the person in front of them, "...... Old lady, I am the eldest lady of Anguo Mansion - Li Miaoxian......"
As soon as these words came out, it was as if someone had dropped a bomb in a quiet space, and the surroundings were silent for an instant......
