"Xu Jian, did Hexingzhen make you forget the three outlines and five constants? In this whole world, how can there be a son who cares about Lao Tzu? ”

Xu Jian looked at Xu Ling, and seriously did not have the slightest intention of retreating. The sound of the two arguing attracted the attention of some maids, and Ruyao rushed over and retreated from everyone.

"Aunt Ruyao has been with you for so many years, we all see her affection for you, if you want to give Aunt Ruyao a name, none of us will object. But if you let her follow you like this, my son will not be allowed. ”

"What if you don't know what!"

Xu Ling was very angry at the moment, he was still being taught by his son how to do things at his age.

"So, is my father planning not to give Aunt Ruyao a name?"

The father and son glared angrily, and finally it was Ruyao's appearance that broke the deadlock,

"Master, eldest son. The slave heard the dispute between the two, and the eldest prince had just returned, and the old man didn't know how happy he was, and he really shouldn't be angry. ”

"Aunt Ruyao,"

"The eldest son!"

Ruyao's gaze was unusually firm, "It's not that the master doesn't give it, but that the slave can't ask for it." The slave promised his wife that he would serve the master wholeheartedly, and he would also take care of several sons and girls. ”

Looking at Ru Yao, Xu Jian felt very unbearable, "Aunt Ru Yao, you are painting the ground as a prison, why bother to torture yourself." ”

"Childe doesn't need to say it, it's hard work for many days, let's rest early."

Ruyao looked earnest, Xu Ling looked at Xu Jian again, waved his sleeves and left.

"Childe really shouldn't quarrel with the master for the slave maid, since he knew the news that the son was going home, the master couldn't sleep for several nights when he was happy."

"Aunt Ruyao, in the past three years I have been out, I have seen a lot of couples who support each other. The mother is gone, and you deserve what you deserve, just like a normal couple, and you can also take care of your father. I just can't bear you, trapping myself in a cage and refusing to come out. ”

"The eldest prince is kind-hearted, but the slave really doesn't need it. Isn't it good now, so why bother to tell the truth again? ”

Xu Jian stopped talking, Ruyao still had that loving smile,

"The slave maid has prepared the jujube mud cake and has given it to Chunhua, and the son will taste it when he goes back."

After speaking, Ruyao bowed and retreated.

On the other side, Wen Chenan found Xu Qian,

"Third brother stays."

Xu Qian stopped, "What's wrong Chen'an?" ”

"Third brother, I want to draw a picture of Jiankang, I want to ask you where the line of sight is the best, you can let me paint a picture of the prosperity of Jiankang."

Xu Qian smiled, "Aren't you just asking the right person, when will it start, I'll take you over." ”

"It may take two days to prepare, I don't have good drawing paper, I need to buy it."

"Two days?" Xu Qian thought for a while, and then said, "If you are not in a hurry, it is better to set it in five days." Five days later, the son of a merchant in the city married his wife and chartered a street for a lantern festival at night. At that time, there were many people, and the night scene was bustling, how? ”

"Okay, third brother, how do you know everything."

"Have you forgotten what your third brother does? I'm a foodie, and the merchant asked me to make a recipe, so I knew it. By the way, he also invited me to the banquet, do you want to come along? ”

Wen Chenan shook his head and excused himself, "I haven't participated in such a scene, I'm worried about embarrassing the third brother." Why don't I wait for the third brother in Xiangmanlou first. ”

Xu Qian didn't think that Wen Chenan would embarrass himself, but he thought that it would be inconvenient for him to hold things, so he agreed,

"I'll ask them to prepare a private room for you in advance, if you want to paint, it will take time and effort, I'll give you something to eat, and wait for me while eating."

Wen Chenan happily agreed, and the two went back to the residence together.

Ruyao followed Xu Ling back to the room and ordered someone to make a cup of tea.

"The master just drank wine, and he was angry, drink a cup of tea to slow down his mind, and he will go to the morning court tomorrow."

Xu Ling sat in front of the bookcase,

"This kid, as soon as he thinks he has a long face, he starts to make mistakes."

Ruyao chuckled, "Did the master really just think that the eldest prince had a long face?" Father and son are connected, don't be angry, drink tea and go to sleep. ”

Xu Ling looked at Ruyao and sighed helplessly.

On the other side, Lu Shixian opened a letter and took out a piece of paper from a box.

"Seeing the words is like meeting, my son can be fine. Recently, there have been months of civil strife in Lingjiang, and there is no end in sight to the battle between the emperors. The family was excluded because of its neutrality.

Don't be anxious, wait for the situation to be one, and take my son home for his father. Now, Su Wu'er is concentrating on his studies, and he has heard that Wu'er has a lot of experience in riding and shooting, so he must concentrate on practicing and prepare for his return.

There is another matter, the future road of Ling Jiang and Da Zhou is not visible, and my son must not let the personal feelings of his children affect his future actions. Naturally, you can have a sincere relationship with the Xu family, but Wu'er must always remember that Wu'er is the son of Lingjiang, not the person of the Great Zhou. ”

After reading it, Lu Shixian folded the letter paper and put it in the same box, and the personal feelings of children seemed to be mentioning Lu Shixian, which made Lu Shixian a little distracted.

"Childe, what did the master say?"

Lu Shixian came back to his senses and handed the box to Twelve, "The Lingjiang war, several wars, will eventually end, and then we can go home." ”

Twelve put the boxes away, and there was not much joy when they heard the word "home". Lu Shixian saw that the twelve were extremely calm, and couldn't help but be curious,

"Don't you want to go home?"

Twelve smiled, "Where Childe is, where is Twelve's home." ”

Lu Shixian also smiled, his memory, he didn't have much impression of Ling Jiang. If it weren't for the portraits sent in every year, he probably wouldn't have remembered his mother and father.

"Twelve, do you think it's better to Lu Mansion or Xu Mansion?"

Hearing this question, Twelve thought about it seriously,

"The little one thinks that the Xu Mansion is better."

Lu Shixian looked at Twelve and asked with a smile, "What's the matter, Xu Mansion has been in the Mansion for three years, and he can't miss it?" ”

Twelve shook his head and said seriously, "Because here, Childe is happier." In the past, at the family banquet, Childe had never talked so freely as he did today. ”

Thinking of the chatter and laughter among the brothers today, Lu Shixian also couldn't extricate himself in this atmosphere, and when he thought of himself at home, everyone was worried about the future and fate, and almost never joked.

"But after all, we live in a foreign land, and we have to go back after all."

"Is the boy willing to leave? That day, Gongzi saw Miss Xu and Gongzi Wen walking together, and he was restless all the way. ”

Lu Shixian blushed a little when he was said, and hurriedly denied it,

"Nonsense, how can I be distracted because they walk together, we walk together on weekdays, I'm just thinking about what they're talking about."

Twelve saw through it and didn't say it, and seeing that Lu Shixian didn't want to admit it, he didn't continue to say it.

In the blink of an eye, it was the day agreed between Xu Qian and Wen Chen'an. Wen Chenan informed Xu Qingyang and Lu Shixian in advance, so the three of them planned to be together.

"Chen'an, a few days ago you said that Xiangmanlou is the eldest brother, not joking."

Wen Chenan shook his head, "It was the eldest brother who told me personally." ”

Xu Qingyang instantly became like a frosted eggplant,

"No wonder there have been so many times when I was arrested as soon as I returned home, and it turned out that I had run into the camp of the enemy army. It's funny that we're still thinking about how to escape. ”

Lu Shixian quipped, "It's okay if the two of us don't know, I never thought that Qingqing really didn't know." ”

Speaking of this, Xu Qingyang felt even more helpless, "Don't talk about me, the third brother and the fourth brother don't know." ”

At this time, Xu Qingyang looked at Shuangfu behind Wen Chen'an again,

"Shuangfu, you are by the side of the eldest brother, you don't know it."

Shuangfu looked at a few people with some embarrassment, "This, the little one knows, but the little one doesn't know how many of you don't know." ”

Everyone only felt a black line pass over their heads.

"No, I'm going to punish my eldest brother a little."

The two of them have been, Lu Shixian blurted out, "Qingqing, what are you going to do?" ”

Xu Qingyang said to Mo'er, "You go and call the eldest brother over, just say that we are going to Xiangmanlou, and you will say that you don't know anything." Sister Xiangling, you go and ask someone to lead the horse, the three of us ride a horse, and then ask someone to put on the carriage, wait for the eldest brother to go out, let him take the carriage, you and Mo'er don't have to be together. ”

"How can a girl do it alone?" Xiangling immediately retorted, but Xu Qingyang looked indifferent.

"There's Mingqi here, it's okay."

Ming Qi, who heard the call, immediately said, "There are subordinates here, and the girl will be safe." ”

Everyone knew that Xu Qingyang was planning to play tricks on Xu Jian, so they also cooperated silently.

Mo'er arrived at Yongwen Pavilion and saw Xu Jian, indicating that Xu Qingyang was going to Xiangmanlou.

Xu Jian put down the official document and asked, "Why do you want to go to Xiangmanlou?" ”

Mo'er shook her head, "The slave doesn't know. ”

"With whom?"

"The slave doesn't know this."

"She called you, but she wanted me to come with you?"

"Slave, I don't know."

Mo'er remembered what Xu Qingyang said, but Xu Jian grew up watching Xu Qingyang grow up after all, how could she not know what she wanted.

"Your girl, do you know that Xiangmanlou is my property?"

"The slave doesn't know."

Seeing Mo'er bow her head and insist on not knowing anything, Xu Jian felt a little funny. When she heard that Xiangmanlou was her own industry, she was not surprised or sluggish, and she knew that Xu Qingyang already knew the news.

"Okay, then I'll go over. Shuangshou, go prepare the horse, you go with me. ”

Mo'er breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Xu Jian leave. Chunhua walked over and teased,

"Only the fifth girl can use the way of playing a scoundrel to invite the eldest son."

When Mo'er and Chunhua talked, they no longer felt restrained,

"My girl is full of air, but after today, the anger will disappear."

Xu Jian went out and saw Xiangling waiting at the door,

"Your girl told you to wait here, what do you order?"

Xiangling saluted, "The girl has prepared a carriage for the son, the son please." ”

Xu Jian stepped into the car, and suddenly remembered that Xiangling and Mo'er had stayed in the mansion, so he turned his head and asked,

"You and Mo'er have stayed, so who will follow Qingqing?
