Mrs. Yuan naturally wanted to wait for Mrs. Chen to go together, but Mrs. Shen of Shun'an Hou hesitated, and under the pretext that there were many things in the house, she ordered her eldest son and daughter-in-law, Xiao Shen, to stay and take care of her, and she followed closely behind Mrs. Chen, got in the car and left.

The other people in the clan, aiming at the direction of the wind, also came in twos and threes, each with the excuse that they were busy, and hurried away. It's not an excuse either.

In the blink of an eye, in the broad blue brick courtyard, there were few people left.

Fifth Mrs. Zhou looked around, and then looked at Li Yan, who was tightly wrapped in a cloak and looked very dazed, hesitated, and waved at Li Yan and smiled: "Sister Yan, come here." ”

Mama Kong hurriedly pushed Li Yan, who was in a daze, "The fifth wife called you, go quickly." ”

"In a few days, it will be Laba, the south is fine, in our capital, this Laba is even tighter than New Year's Day, these days, everyone is busy and dizzy, except for Laba Festival, nothing else can be taken care of, every year. It's just that we can't be a family member like this, so we can have a little leisure. Mrs. Friday laughed and explained to Li Yan, but also to explain to Li Yan the embarrassment of the scattering of people, birds and beasts.

"Thank you, Aunt Five." Li Yan understood what Mrs. Friday meant, and thanked her, and Mrs. Friday laughed, "You are an understanding person, then you don't need me to say more, don't think about it, come, I'll take you to meet a few elders, it's freezing this day, it's better to disperse early." ”

"Okay." Li Yan nodded, followed Mrs. Friday, and nodded to a few elders who either wanted to eat and get some, or had not had time to get in the car to go home, and followed Mrs. Friday out of the ancestral hall courtyard.

"I just saw my fifth sister-in-law's car, and I thought I had seen it wrong." A young man in his early twenties, beaming, strode towards the two of them.

"This is your seventh uncle." Mrs. Li Yan was introduced to Li Yan on Friday, Li Yan looked at Li Changjie twice, and Mama Su focused on introducing this seventh master: he is only twenty-two years old this year, he is the youngest son of Mrs. Chen's grandmother, and he is also Mrs. Chen's favorite heart.

"Uncle Seven." Li Yan hurriedly bent his knees to salute.

"They say you look like your father, but you really look like you." Seventh Master Li Changjie bent down slightly, looked at Li Yan carefully, first exclaimed, and then patted Li Yan twice on the shoulder with a folding fan, "I heard about you and your father, it's the Li family who is sorry for you, my aunt ......"

Li Qiye paused, "Don't pay attention to her, she had a big temper when she was young, and she wasn't very reasonable, and she was still like this when she was old." ”

"Old Seven!" Mrs. Friday was angry and laughing.

"Take this, Uncle Seventh specially picked a meeting gift for you." Li Qiye changed the topic, took out a delicate white jade tiger from his sleeve and handed it to Li Yan, "What do you want to eat and play in the future, just send someone to tell Uncle Seventh that this is your home, don't care about others, don't see it yourself." ”

"Thank you, Uncle Seven." Li Yan picked up the little white jade tiger with both hands, and his heart was so sour that he almost wanted to shed tears.

"It's cold, you hurry up and go back with your fifth aunt, I'm leaving." Li Qiye confessed, turned around, and left in a dashing manner.

"Your seventh uncle is right, the old lady is an elder first, and secondly, the grievances and grievances of the previous life, these must be looked at, as your seventh uncle said, don't pay attention to it." Mrs. Friday sent Li Yan to the car and explained in a low voice: "There is also that sentence: This home is your home, don't care about others, don't see yourself first, and don't worry about it." ”

"I wrote it down, thank you Aunt Five." Li Yan bent his knees again to thank him.

"You're a person who understands, just understand. If you want to eat or play, or lack something, you just talk to Mama Bai, I have it here, Bai Mo is Mama Bai's niece, they all came with me to marry, your third aunt came to pick someone, I thought about it, so I didn't shirk it. Mrs. Friday paused, and then said with a smile: "I don't care if I have children at home, I usually have a lot of free time, I can come over when you want to talk, and you don't have to be polite to the fifth uncle and five aunts." ”

"I know, thank you, fifth uncle and fifth aunt." Li Yan thanked him again, a few traces of warmth in the ice and cold ground were the most soft-hearted.

"Hurry up and get in the car, it's cold outside, go back and have a good rest." Mrs. Friday signaled Li Yan to hurry up and get into the car, took a few steps back, and got into the car herself.

Mrs. Chen returned to Zixuan Hall, changed her clothes, drank a cup of hot tea, and just spit out a few mouthfuls of turbidity, when the sound of the girl outside came in, and the ancestor of the Chen family sent someone to send a congratulatory gift, and congratulated the eldest lady of the Li family on returning to the sect.

Mrs. Chen choked on her chest with a sip of hot tea, and her hot chest ached.

Where did she offend this ancestor? He blocked her one trip after another?

Mrs. Yuan looked at Mrs. Chen's slightly blue face, didn't dare to say much, hurriedly went out to take a look, and came back immediately, looking at Mrs. Chen, she didn't dare to say, but she couldn't help but say something: "Old Ancestor, there is another copy, it is the immortal old ancestor......

Old Madam Chen raised her head and stared at Mrs. Yuan fiercely, "What did you say?" What Immortal Ancestor? ”

"That's it," Mrs. Yuan hurriedly picked up the box in her hand, "The woman said: The ancestor has instructed not to be too loud, saying that this is the immortal ancestor of their family who sealed it himself, saying that it is the ...... of the eldest lady of the Li family returning to the sect" Facing the fierce gaze of Mrs. Chen, Mrs. Yuan did not dare to say the last happy word.

"Put it down, you stand down." After a while, Mrs. Chen almost squeezed out a few words from between her teeth, and Mrs. Yuan hurriedly put the box on the kang table, lowered her hand and withdrew, and walked out of Zixuan Hall, hurriedly asking people to go to see the eldest lady...... Now it should be the second miss, let's see if Li Ruo is back, if she comes back, let her hurry to Zixuan Hall.

When Li Ruo hurriedly arrived at Zixuan Hall, Old Madam Chen was crooked on the kang, her face ashen.

"Lady." Li Ruo sat sideways on the edge of the kang and let out a low voice.

"You're here." Old Madam Chen's voice was low, she opened her eyes, looked at Li Ruo, sighed a little weakly, and pointed to a few large or small boxes piled up on the ground in front of the kang, "Sister Ruo, take a look." What was your wife afraid of before you were born...... Alas, the wife was scared at that time, look at ......"

Li Ruo frowned and looked at Mama Hong, who was standing in front of the kang with her hands down, Mama Hong glanced at Old Madam Chen, and explained in a low voice: "These are all congratulatory gifts just sent, congratulations...... The eldest lady returned to her ancestors. One share of the ancestor of the Chen family, one copy of the immortal ancestor of the Chen family, said that it was the box sealed by the immortal ancestor himself; One from the Shen family, one from the Yuan family, one from the seventh lady of Huainan Wangfu, one from Pei Seventeen Ye, just now, the eldest princess of Yongle also sent a copy, and there was also an invitation, inviting the eldest lady and the second lady to come to the house to enjoy the flowers the day after tomorrow. ”
