The carriage went out of the official road on the mountain road, galloped all the way, and finally arrived in front of the Cui Mansion at ten o'clock in the afternoon.

Cui Jing escorted everyone home, and went directly to the yamen without getting out of the carriage. Cheng Jinsi took Lieyun, Cui Wanning and Cui Yanqi to the second gate to get out of the car, and went straight to Songhe Hall to greet Mrs. Cui and Mrs. Cui.

A little maid had already received a letter and was waiting at the door of Songhe Hall, and when the four of them arrived, they hurriedly welcomed them into the house. As soon as Cui Yanqifu entered the door, he ran directly to Mrs. Cui's side and crooked, "Grandfather, grandmother, grandson is going to starve to death." ”

The second elder looked at it, Cheng Jinsi was fine, the three little ones were listless like frosted eggplants, and they knew that the four of them were tired from going down the mountain, and they rushed to the road, and it was useless to have lunch, so they were busy and asked for peace, so let the four of them go back to the courtyard to eat and rest, if you have anything to say, go to Songhetang for dinner in the evening. He also told the eldest girl of Songhetang to sing the qin, and let the big kitchen add a few more dishes that the juniors love to eat at night.

The four of them thanked Mrs. Cui and Mrs. Cui, and hurriedly walked out of Songhe Hall and went back to the courtyards.

Lieyun took Moju and Zilan back to the purple courtyard, Cuizhu had already prepared hot water for Lieyun to wash, and Hongmei also brought out the lunch that had been warm on the stove and placed it on the table.

Lieyun cleaned his hands and face, changed into a homely cotton skirt, picked up his chopsticks and hastily took a few bites, then asked Hongmei to withdraw from the meal, and let Mo Ju and Zilan also go down to rest, and walked to the bedside by himself.

Mo Ju answered, glanced at Cuizhu, turned around and walked out of the house to the side room where the big girl was resting, Zilan hesitated, and saw Mo Ju act like this, and followed.

Cuizhu was still thinking about what it meant for Mo Ju to look at him, so he might as well hear a low shout "Lie Wu", Cuizhu instinctively responded "yes", only to find that it was Lie Yun sitting on the edge of the bed and calling himself.

Cuizhu suddenly felt at a loss, hesitated for a moment, and walked in front of Lie Yun. Just as he was about to kneel, he heard Lie Yun arrive, "I want to rest for a while, you just stay here, don't let others in." After saying that, Lieyun pulled the quilt and lay down on the bed.

Cuizhu looked at the fierce clouds who had closed their eyes, and stood in front of the bed with a full stomach.

Jin Wuxi fell, and the only few remaining rays of light tenaciously passed through the thick green veil of the green forest bamboo sea on the window lattice, reflecting a shadow in the house.

On the bed, Lieyun opened his eyes, looked at Cuizhu in front of him and stopped talking, and smiled happily, "You don't have to be afraid, I know the identities of you and Mo Ju, something happened in Tanji Temple, and Mo Ju will inform you later." ”

Lieyun got up and got out of bed, "Alright, let's all come in and serve." ”

took off the home-style cotton skirt on her body, and put on the green daisy gold thread stand-up collar placket long skirt in Hongmei's hand, with a gold belt around the waist, and hung a mutton fat jade hollow and a lotus jade pendant. On his feet, he stepped on a pair of cyan Su brocade forged embroidered shoes, and the tips of the shoes were inlaid with two emerald jade lotus flowers the size of fingernails. He also asked Zilan to take half of her hair and loosely pull it up in a bun at the back of her head, and insert a jasper gold hairpin.

The girl in the mirror is dark, not only has not been robbed of the vitality of the young man, but has added a bit of calm atmosphere.

Seeing that it was the end of Shen, the weather outside was as cool as late autumn, and after putting on the emerald brocade feather satin cloak that Hongmei had just taken out of the cage, Lieyun instructed Moju and Cuizhu to stay in the courtyard, and took Zilan and Hongmei to Songhe Hall.

When I arrived at the door of Desong Crane Hall, I heard that there was a laughing banquet in the house, and Mingqin came to lift the curtain and asked Lieyun for peace, that is, to invite the three masters and servants to enter.

Cui Yanqi didn't know what he was talking about in the house, which made Mrs. Cui and Mrs. Cui unable to close their mouths, Cheng Jinsi called Cui Yanqi "naughty", Cui Wanning was hammering her younger brother with a small fist, Cui Jing also got off the ya, and was looking at everyone in the room with a smile. What a happy family!

Lie Yun felt that in the past three years in the Cui family, it seemed that he had never seriously looked at what the Cui family looked like.

Old lady Cui is almost at the age of knowing the destiny of heaven, tall, with a clear face and a beard under her chin. Today, he wore a homely robe, his hair was tied in a bun on the top of his head, and a rosewood hairpin was inserted on it.

Mrs. Cui is five years younger than Mrs. Cui, but because of good maintenance, it looks as if she has just passed. Mrs. Cui has a typical Jiangnan woman's appearance, with a petite figure but even bones, a melon seed face, curved willow eyebrows, a straight nose, full and ruddy lips, and you can still see the beautiful appearance of her youth. Probably old and afraid of the cold, and it was not yet time to burn the earth dragon in the house, today I wore a purple cardigan jacket on my upper body, and a black embroidered Ruyi pattern twelve cotton skirts below. The head of black hair was neatly tied in a bun at the back of his head, a white jade plum hairpin was inserted, two white jade beads were decorated on his ears, and a mutton fat jade bracelet was placed on his wrist.

Look at Cui Jing, her figure follows the old lady Cui, but her face follows her mother, handsome and bright, full of literary popularity but does not give people a sense of pedantic, otherwise, it would not have been able to attract the heart of the lady of Dingjing back then. probably came directly to Songhetang after getting off the ya, and Cui Jing was still wearing an official uniform and did not change.

Lie Yun's gaze looked at his aunt Cheng Jinsi carefully. Lieyun's mother, Princess Zhaohua Cheng Nishang, was the pearl of Dingjing that crowned the capital, and her appearance followed her mother, Princess Anguo, who looked like a flying fairy out of the sky, not only proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but also a must in dancing. When Emperor Xianqinglong ascended the throne, how many children in Dingjing could not eat and sleep, and they couldn't sleep at night.

And Cheng Jinsi, probably followed their father, the general Lie Zheng, who was not as beautiful as Cheng Nishang, but could only be called dignified, but with a rare heroic spirit of a woman. Today, Cheng Jinsi wore an ochre-red tunic skirt, and the skirt was embroidered with a river sunset pattern with silver thread, and the silver light flashed when she walked, as if a river flowed. His hair was tied in a bun, a ruby gold step was inserted, a teardrop-shaped ruby pendant was worn in his ears, and a red jade bracelet was worn on his wrist.

Cui Wanning was dressed in a goose yellow gauze skirt, covered with garnet red and silver-edged shoulders, combed with double buns, two goose yellow silk flowers on the bun, a red gold jewel on her neck, and a red gold bracelet with a double fish tail on her wrist.

Just as she was about to look at Cui Yanqi again, Mrs. Cui had already seen Lieyun enter the house, and scolded Cui Yanqi with a smile "Little Leather Monkey", so she called Lieyun to come forward, which caused Miss Cui to snort coldly as usual.

Everyone laughed for a while, and Mrs. Cui and Mrs. Cui beckoned people to set the meal.

The big maid played the piano and the drum, led a group of little maids, and set up a table full of dishes with tea. Everyone took their seats, and Cheng Jinsi was just about to get up to give vegetables to Mrs. Cui and Mrs. Cui, when she heard Mrs. Cui say, "Okay, you've been tired for two days, sit down and eat." ”

Cheng Jinsi looked at Cui Jing, and Cui Jing said, "Since my mother said no, you can sit down." Cheng Jinsi thanked Mrs. Cui and sat down as she said.

The Cui family adheres to the principle of eating without saying a word, and everyone at the dinner table is silent, only listening to the occasional gentle collision of dishes and chopsticks.

After dinner, the table was removed, the maid served the freshly brewed hot tea, and everyone gossiped again.

Mrs. Cui called Lie Yun to sit beside her, and asked if it would be smooth to go to Tanji Temple to make incense, and the Dharma could be done well, and it would be unaccustomed to staying in Tanji Temple for a night.

Cui Wanning on the other side listened to it and pouted, "Grandmother, you haven't asked me if you eat well or sleep well in that temple!" Besides, my cousin is such a big person, my father and mother followed, and I brought two maids, can I still be wronged! ”

Old Madam Cui doted on Cui Wanning's forehead with her hand, and was about to speak, Lie Yun got up, walked to the middle of the room, and bowed to everyone.

Cheng Jinsi hurriedly stepped forward to help Lie Yun up, and said angrily, "You kid, what are you doing here?" ”

"In the past three years, Yun'er has been taken care of by the Cui family, not only the Cui family's grandfather and grandmother have treated me like a grandson, but my aunt and uncle have treated me as their own, and my aunt has worked hard for my body, boiling medicine and delivering medicine for me every night. After speaking, Lieyun looked up at everyone's expressions.
