When you meet each other in the courtyard of Mi Mansion, it is probably something that both parties did not expect.

Mi Xia Yao smiled and thanked Mi Wei for her congratulations.

A brief silence ensued.

The housekeeper looked at the two aunts and grandmothers, they were all people who were not easy to provoke, and he stood respectfully aside with his hands, looking at his nose and his nose.

"Why did you suddenly go back to the capital?"

Mi Wei picked a seemingly easy topic to chat.

This topic is not like a relaxed one, Mi Xia Yao's smile deepened a little, but the smile did not reach the bottom of her eyes.

"Go back to Beijing with your husband and take office." She also replied very lightly.

Mi Wei only knew that Mi Xia Yao was married in Qingzhou's family, but she never heard the news that she was married to anyone. Naturally, Mi Xia Yao was probably married to the right local person according to the arrangement of the third uncle of Qingzhou.

She was a little surprised that there were people in Qingzhou who could come to the capital to take office, and she couldn't help but be a little more curious.

"How is the other party? Although there are many men in this Daqi now, not all of them are reliable, but you have to see the details of the other party. ”

Mi Wei said a word of advice.

Who knew that the other party really nodded and answered seriously.

The two of them had no conversation to talk about, and they were not the kind of people who tore their faces, maintaining the kindness that should be between relatives, and after ending the conversation in a hurry, Mi Wei left in a hurry.

After Mi Wei completely walked away, Mi Xia Yao turned her head to the housekeeper and asked, "How has Sister Mi Wei been in the capital all these years?" ”

"The eldest lady is now a companion in the palace, and I heard that she is accompanied by a county lord or a county lord."

She nodded clearly, that Mi Wei was indeed a good mix.

There are not many female dependents in the palace, and if you speculate casually, you can guess that she should go to the county lord of Anyang to read with her, and the county lord of Anyang is deeply liked by the queen mother.

Mi Wei seems to have found a very reliable backer.

Slightly restrained her thoughts on finding out the news, she walked towards the gate of the compound, and was about to walk out of the door.

The housekeeper temporarily stopped her again, "Can my aunt and grandmother come to the house often to see the master during this time?" ”

"If I am free, I will come." Mi Xia Yao's reply has always been very decent.

The housekeeper knew that Mi Xia Yao was polite, he sighed silently, and said frankly: "Since my aunt and grandmother left the capital, the master's mood has not been high, plus ...... Those bad things, the old man's recent body looks not a reassuring feeling. ”

Mi Xia Yao's movement of carrying the hem of her skirt paused slightly, and she glanced sideways at the housekeeper.

"It's the old slave who talks too much." The housekeeper saw the meaning of jealousy and warning in Mi Xia Yao's eyes.

He quickly came to his senses and realized that the aunt in front of him was not a simple person, and he slapped his mouth in hindsight.

Mi Xia Yao just glanced at him lightly, "Grandpa is not in good health, so he should find a doctor to come over and take a look, instead of speculating about some things here that are not there." ”

With that, she turned around and walked out of the Mi Mansion without hesitation.

She seemed to have a neat and decisive back, but in fact, Mi Xiayao's expression became solemn the moment she stepped out of Mi Mansion.

The news that grandpa is not in a good state is a crisis for Mi Xia Yao. She had to find a way to make her grandfather have the idea of resigning and supporting her as soon as possible.

Pei's Mansion was in the depths of Baiguan Lane, Mi Xia Yao and Song Qiao were half-baked and found the mansion, just in time to see the housekeeper of Pei's Mansion cleaning the gate happily.

He noticed that there was someone on the road, looked back, and just met Mi Xia Yao's gaze, he hurriedly trotted over.

"The eldest lady wants to go back to the mansion, she should have asked someone to come over and say something, and the old slave will send someone to pick you up in a carriage."

"No, it's only a few miles to the left and right, so there's no need for such a big scene." Mi Xia Yao declined the housekeeper's kindness.

She raised her eyes and glanced at the shining plaque, and the words Pei Fu on it were quite atmospheric.

"The adults entered the palace at this time, according to the previous hours, Mo came back in about an hour, the eldest lady was tired from running around, but she wanted to rest, the backyard hot spring was prepared early, and it was most comfortable to soak in a warm spring in winter."

The housekeeper saw Mi Xia Yao after such a long time, his old face was quite bright and sunny, and he couldn't wait to tell everyone on the street that they had a genuine hostess in Pei Mansion!

It was probably what Pei Xingyuan explained to the housekeeper when he returned home.

After entering the mansion, this Pei Mansion was still the same as before, she walked to the front hall, and the maid waiting in the hall hurriedly handed over the prepared soup woman.

Then he took the heavy cloak from Song Qiao's hand.

The housekeeper saw that the hostess's expression was not relaxed, so he retreated with interest.

The person serving in the front hall just now was still waiting for the order, and the next second he was taken out by the butler.

There was only one maid left in the spacious front hall, but Mi Xia Yao still pinched her eyebrows a little tiredly.

"Where's Mi Xiaobao?"

She opened her mouth to ask, and naturally she was the maid standing guard at the door.

The maid hurriedly turned sideways and said respectfully, "It's in the backyard, and it's being taken by Aunt Linglong." ”

Hearing that Linglong was beside Mi Xiaobao, Mi Xia Yao breathed a sigh of relief, she was holding Tang Pozi, thinking about some matters related to the invitation to the Hongmen banquet in the capital in the future.

There was an uninvited guest in the front yard of Pei's Mansion here.

The butler walked beside the eunuch, emphasizing something on his lips as they approached.

Mi Xia Yao heard what the housekeeper was talking about.

"My eldest lady has just returned to the mansion from Qingzhou, even if she is allowed to enter the palace again, it is better to let people rest for a while, right?"

"Our Pei Mansion's private family affairs and feeds have not been handed over to the eldest lady, how can there be any reason to enter the palace immediately?"

"Father-in-law, don't you want to wait a while?"

Mi Xia Yao pursed her lips.

I have to say that this housekeeper is really nice.

She had wandered around Pei's Mansion before, and when she stayed in Pei's Mansion at the beginning, I was afraid that everyone in the mansion knew about her existence. Returning to Pei's Mansion today, Mi Xia Yao unexpectedly felt kind.

The father-in-law turned a deaf ear to the butler's thoughts, and he walked towards the hall vigorously, seeing a woman sitting in the main seat of the hall.

He shook off the dust and pushed the butler away, and he stepped forward quickly.

Raising his voice and pinching his slightly sharp voice, he said, "This ...... Mrs. Pei, the concubine invited Mrs. to chat with the child, and bothered to enter the palace with the miscellaneous family, right? ”

Mi Xia Yao was sitting on the main seat, looking at her father-in-law in front of her indifferently. This person's appearance is someone she has never seen in the palace before, and she can't be sure whether it is the little concubine's person for a while.

Still is...... Lin Wei's people.

"I'm on a long journey, and I haven't washed yet, so I'm tired of waiting for my father-in-law for a while."

Mi Xia Yao's body did not move, and said calmly and calmly.

The father-in-law paused for a moment, and finally said, "Madame, hurry up, my mother-in-law has been waiting for Madame for a long time." ”

The corners of her lips hooked slightly, as if she didn't care about this polite remark.

"Butler, serve good tea and treat guests."

Mi Xia Yao put down this sentence, and walked towards the backyard with Song Qiao and the maid guarding the door.

The backyard of Pei's Mansion is also a new furnishing, but the display rules have not changed much, and most of them maintain the appearance of the last time Mi Xia Yao came to see them.
