397 Befriended
The Gu family's ancestral home is Zheng County, Huazhou, and it is only a few hours away from the capital, so it is not troublesome to go back.
However, since this matter was put on the agenda, Yingluo Yu and the others began to prepare in advance, gifts for everyone, a set of supplies that Wang Linzhi and his wife needed to bring, and the people who followed.
Although the Gu family is also a big family in Zheng County, the time for their career is too short, and during this period, Gu Yan and his wife rarely return to their hometown, and they don't know if the house is spacious enough.
Of course, this is just Gu Yue of Yu and Yingluo, because they have always arranged it very well, Wang Linzhi has never paid attention to these little things.
On the contrary, she was happy.
By the time autumn comes, the children will be eight or nine months old, and when the weather is good, the children will be much easier to bring, and it doesn't matter if they can take them to the outside world when the time comes. Although it is okay in the capital, but because of Gu Yue's promotion, he can receive a thick handful of posts almost every day, Wang Linzhi is now focused on her husband and son, and she has no intention of entertaining these people, but if you want to go out, there must be a time, it is better to be more comfortable after returning to your hometown.
Besides, Gu Yan and Xiang are not unreasonable people, everyone gets along together, but they are also very relaxed and happy, not to mention that the old lady has a good confinement for her not to fall ill, and she has worked hard to rush from the capital to Wuchang, as long as she is not hard-hearted, she will generally be moved.
The Gu family regards her as a family, and she will naturally treat the other party as a family.
Now that the war has just ended, it is a good choice to return to the hometown and spend the Mid-Autumn Festival and Chinese New Year's Eve with the elders.
Before you know it, the clothes on the quadruplets have become shorter again, and you need to thicken them when you wake up in the morning.
The wind is blowing, the leaves are falling leisurely, and finally the hot summer is sent away, ushering in the golden autumn.
Wang Linzhi quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
She's never hated summer so much as she did this year!
Because the children are small, they don't dare to use too much ice, for fear that it will not be good for their health, so she doesn't use ice much in her mother's house.
But when it was too hot, and the wind from the fan was hot, she gritted her teeth and told the nurses to put ice cubes in the nursery.
Several children were also clever thieves, and they used ice on the first night, and there was no ice on the second night, so they were always crying and crying. If only one is enough, but there are four!
One cried, and the others also cried, and after a while, crying turned into howling, three women in one play, and four small groups cried at the same time, which was more lively than a play.
Although it was not in a room, the cry could be heard through the wall.
Crying made Wang Linzhi's heart burn, coupled with the heat, noise and distress, she couldn't hold back for a moment, so she had to continue to let them use ice, but she was worried that when she was old, she would fall into trouble, and her heart kept worrying.
Fortunately, these dog days are finally over!
"Pack up your things, and when the second master comes back, let's go to Zheng County." Wang Linzhi confessed.
As soon as the crisis in Tubo was lifted, Xue Dalang dealt with Chang Huai'en easily, and it didn't take long for the rebellion to be quelled, and the six princes took the initiative to put forward it, so that Xue Dalang had already attacked the title of Marquis of Changxing.
Xue Dalang returned to Beijing to report on his work, and specially explained to his family, "Walk around with the Gu family more, I was able to go so smoothly this time, thanks to him." ”
Except for the married crown princess who is occasionally a little confused, everyone else has enough brains, as soon as Xue Dalang finished speaking, Mrs. Xue glanced at him, "This little thing, I still need to say it!" ”
If Gu Yue hadn't seized the opportunity to take the initiative to capture Shu, let Chang Huaien sneak back through the loophole, and use the terrain of Shu as a cover, it would have been difficult to capture Shu again.
Moreover, after Gu Yue captured Shudi, he set off directly from Shu and went to see the king of Yunnan, persuaded him to cooperate with Xue Dalang, and attacked inside and outside.
Others don't know about these things, but how could Old Madam Xue, who has been paying attention to the battle situation, not know?
As early as when Gu Yue attacked Xizhou, the old man told his daughter-in-law, "Add two percent of the gift to the lord of Langya." ”
Although Mrs. Xue lost her husband, she did not fall behind in the same thing that should be done, and when she saw her mother-in-law taking the initiative to show friendship with the Gu family, she couldn't help but ask about the root cause.
From the time she was a girl, she knew that her future mother-in-law had an arrogant backbone and never bowed her head to anyone, but now she took the initiative to show goodwill to the Gu family, and there must be a reason.
Mrs. Xue analyzed the matter one by one to her daughter-in-law, although Mrs. Xue was not as shrewd as her mother-in-law, but she was not bad, the old lady only said that Gu Yue would change to Nanzhao first, and she understood and promised to do it immediately.
When Xue Dalang returned to Beijing and explained this matter, Mrs. Xue was even more determined to make friends with the Gu family.
They were originally in-laws, and they should have watched over each other, although Mrs. Xue had already known this truth, but she still had some knots, after all, they took the initiative to find the eldest princess of Qingyang, if they took the initiative to show favor to her daughter Langya County Lord now, then what do outsiders think of the Marquis of Changxing?
Could it be that as soon as her husband dies, they won't be able to support the Xue family?
But Mrs. Xue was really worried, after all, the eldest son had been under her husband's wing all these years, but now she had to face a strong enemy like Chang Huaien!
She is really worried day and night, she hasn't slept a single night for many nights, but she didn't expect Gu Yue to relieve Xue Dalang's crisis in a few words.
Before that, Gu Yue didn't say anything, and when he came to mourn, he just glanced at it hurriedly and left.
Because of Gu Yue's low seniority, she didn't pay attention to when he came and when he left.
Unexpectedly, Gu Yue quietly did the eldest son such a big favor, if it wasn't for the quick end of this war, the emperor would not have let the eldest son attack the lord so quickly. The sooner he can take the title, the more it shows that the emperor values the Xue family and has the emperor's favor.
If it was normal times, it would be fine, but her husband died too suddenly, and many things had not been arranged at all, so the emperor's holy decree calmed the hearts of many people who were about to move.
The whole Xue family is now very grateful to Gu Yue, although Xue Dalang has returned to the southwest, but Xue Erlang invited him over to eat and drink every once in a while.
Xue Erlang and Gu Yue had a good relationship before, but now there is this reason in it, Xue Erlang is very active in inviting Gu Yue every time, sometimes alone, sometimes with many people.
However, Gu Yue is not bad, and he comes back early every night.
As for the reason why he came back, it was that there were too many children at home, and he was naughty and troublesome, so he wanted to go home to help.
Everyone understands, after all, the probability of giving birth to four children in one child is too low.
With so many children, you can imagine how hard it must be for adults.
But where did they know that the last thing Gu Yue wanted to see was his son!
They will always occupy his daughter-in-law and squeeze him as a father without any status to speak of.
