Ye Lingwu's eyes darkened, mostly helpless, he was silent for a moment, and then changed the topic: "Grandpa, I'm hungry and want to eat the braised fish you made." ”

"How old are you, you're still coquettish," Song Lao scolded with a smile, got up and said, "You sit and wait, grandpa will do it for you right away." ”

"Then I'll follow you for a while, Qingtang, you go to the courtyard to get some water." Ye Lingwu happily followed to the kitchen, and the green orange guarding the door obediently responded, and went to the deep well in the courtyard to fetch water.

After a while, the table was filled with fragrant meals.

The meals are not hearty, except for the braised fish, they are all vegetarian dishes, Ye Lingwu held the chopsticks, and tasted the old craftsmanship of the Song Dynasty again, and felt as if he was in a different world.

"Try it, this fish was caught half a month ago, I only know that you have returned to Yuzhou, I don't know why you came to Daiyue Town, thinking that you are the most fond of fish, I prepared it in advance." Song Lao sandwiched a piece of fish meat and put it into Ye Lingwu's bowl.

Ye Lingwu was moved in his heart, and said in a low voice: "Grandpa has always been concerned about his granddaughter, but his granddaughter has been here for a long time, and it seems that he hasn't asked grandpa how his life is in Daiyue Town?" ”

"Okay, good, everything's fine, what's not bad." Song Lao smiled, and there were many wrinkles at the corners of his eyes.

Ye Lingwu's nose was sour, and he hesitated for a long time, and finally couldn't help but speak: "Grandpa, you can go to the capital with me." ”

Song Lao's hand was stunned, he looked at Ye Lingwu quietly, and said with a helpless smile: "Your grandfather has lived in Daiyue Town for decades, how can he still be separated, not to mention that the capital is so far away, I still don't toss this old bone." ”

"But when you go to the capital, your granddaughter can accompany you every day, you are alone in Daiyue Town, and your granddaughter is really not at ease."

"What's not to worry about?"

Song Lao picked up a piece of meat and put it in his mouth, chewed it, and said: "Although I am alone in Daiyue Town, the neighbors take care of each other, and whoever has something at home will come to help with a shout, such a comfortable day, I am really not used to letting me go to the capital, just thinking about it feels uncomfortable, very uncomfortable." ”

As he spoke, Song Lao waved his hand with disgust.

Ye Lingwu pursed his lips, didn't make a sound, and glanced at the very familiar jade pendant on the table, and said, "Grandpa, that jade pendant is ......"

Song Lao followed her gaze and said, "That's what you sent back last year, You said that this is a gift from Your Majesty, so I specially made an offering table to offer it, and the ancestors blessed, our Song family can actually get the royal gift." ”

"......" Ye Lingwu.

Time flickered by, and seeing that the sun was about to set, Ye Lingwu got into the carriage back to the city and staggered towards Yuzhou City.

Seeing that Ye Lingwu hung his head and didn't say a word, Qing Tang said worriedly: "Big girl, did your grandfather scold you?" ”

“…… Why do you ask? Ye Lingwu was stunned.

"The eldest girl was still smiling when she came in the morning, why did she leave so ugly?"

Ye Lingwu was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "Silly Qingtang, I just thought that I didn't know when I would come back after leaving this time, and I was just disappointed." ”

Qingtang suddenly smiled and said: "So that's the case, wouldn't it be good if the slave and maid accompany you back to Daiyue Town every year." ”

Ye Lingwu's tense face relaxed.

Speaking of which, after marrying Jiang Yuan, there may not be so many constraints, and it should not be difficult to return to Yuzhou often.

In the early spring, the scenery in the Yefu Garden is green and red, the mountains and rocks are falling, the scenery is good, in the small pavilion, Ye Lingwu is looking at the recent account books.

Uncle Yu walked in quickly and said, "Big girl, the Liu family is here again!" ”

Ye Lingwu paused for a moment, didn't raise his head, and said deafly: "Let them, it's really not good, report to the official directly." ”

“…… Having said that," Uncle Yu said again, "The people of the Liu family have always wanted to see the eldest girl, and if the eldest girl has not been seen, they are afraid that they will not give up." ”

Ye Lingwu frowned irritably.

Those people came to make trouble because they felt that Liu Yuping had lost face to the Liu family by leaving the house, and these days not only Liu Yuping had lost face, but her pungent reputation also resounded throughout Yuzhou City.

But she doesn't care, if the Jiang family really dislikes pushing relatives because of this, it's just right.

“…… Big girl, can't we see the Liu family yet? Seeing that she didn't speak, Uncle Yu asked out loud again.

"Nope." Ye Lingwu is still crisp.

As soon as the words fell, Qingcheng walked in, blessed his body and said, "Big girl, you have done everything to return to Beijing." ”

Uncle Yu said with a happy face: "Big girl, are you going back to Beijing?" ”

Ye Lingwu thought about it: "The capital has been sending letters, and it is not a matter if you stay forever, but Uncle Yu, please rest assured, I will not let go of the business of Ziluo Cloth Village and the garment shop, but during the time I am away, the Ye family's business will trouble you." ”

Uncle Yu said with a smile: "Big girl, go back to the capital, this purple carrot village and the small shops will take care of it for you." ”

Ye Lingwu hooked the corners of his mouth and teased: "Why is Uncle Yu so happy to learn that I am going back to Beijing, does it mean that he thinks that I am a trouble in Yuzhou, and he wishes I could go back?" ”

Uncle Yu shook his head again and again, and replied: "The eldest girl misunderstood, the little one is indeed happy, but the little one is happy that after the eldest girl returns to Beijing, when we meet again, you will be the wife of the important minister of the court. ”

"......" Ye Lingwu smiled reluctantly.

"By the way, big girl, is the injury on Yuan Tao's girl healed? If her injuries are not healed, you might as well leave her in Yuzhou. Uncle Yu said.

Qingtang's face changed slightly, and he said hurriedly: "Don't worry, Uncle Yu, Yuan Tao's injury has long been healed." ”

Seeing that she was so actively interjecting, Uncle Yu laughed twice and said, "Okay, if you force Yuan Tao to recuperate in Yuzhou, it is estimated that the wound will not be healed all the time." ”

Ye Lingwu raised his lips and smiled when he heard this.

Qingcheng sneered: "No, she yelled to get out of bed yesterday, fortunately, the eldest girl sent a message to let her lie down for a few more days to recuperate, otherwise the wound will not be healed." ”

Uncle Yu said: "Don't be sorry when you go to the capital, take care of the eldest girl, and after following the eldest girl into the Jiang family, be cautious and cautious everywhere, and don't quarrel with others, which will cause trouble for the eldest girl." ”

Qingtang's expression was straight, and he nodded: "Got it, Uncle Yu." ”

The sun is shining in mid-March, and there are no strong winds and waves on the waterways.

After walking by water for nearly fifteen days, I finally arrived in the capital.

After this toss, Qingtang and Yuan Tao lost a lot of weight, and the two little girls, who were already thin and weak, looked even more malnourished at the moment.

Ye Lingwu's face was also pale after getting off the boat, she bit her lower lip uncomfortably, and as soon as she raised her eyes, she saw a grandmother standing not far away.

Ye Lingwu knew her, surnamed Yu, and had seen her in Yusucheng.

Mama Yu saw the girl in a light purple Luo skirt at a glance, and walked towards Ye Lingwu quickly, and said with a smile on her face: "Miss Ye has finally returned to Beijing, and the son asked the slave maid to send you back to the Ningbei Hou Mansion." ”

The two had already met, at that time, Mama Yu only felt that Ye Lingwu looked good, she looked like a fairy, but she didn't have a deep friendship, and later heard Jiang Yuan talk about the relationship between the two, Mama Yu liked her more and more in her heart.

Ye Lingwu said, "I'm tired of Mama Yu." ”

The more Mama Yu looked at her, the more she liked it, and her voice couldn't help but soften: "Don't bother." Miss Ye, please get in the carriage. ”
