After eating and drinking for a while, her mother Xiao Wu was tired first, so she was supported by Yin Suhuan to go back to the backyard to rest, and then the family members also came over one by one, said goodbye to Su Chen and left the table, only letting the younger generations in the family stay and continue to accompany them.

Su Chen understood what these people meant, so he simply accompanied the eldest brother and second brother to eat and drink, and at the same time called the brothers and sisters in the courtyard to come in, and tested the school knowledge and the art of war one by one.

When asked, he didn't bother Su Chen to say a few casual words, and he turned away the embarrassment, but there were a few people who had some ability, and they still kept it in mind, but they still encouraged them to take the imperial examination and get an official position with their ability.

When they got to the back, the people were almost gone, Su Yong and Su Lie were also drunk and were carried away by the servants, Su Chen was also a little drunk, Dian Wei and Xu Chu followed behind, Zheng He was carrying Su Chen, who had already slept, and it was Thirteen who supported Su Chen.

"My family has worked hard for you all these years."

On the way to the South Courtyard, Su Chen was supported by this sloppy-looking guard, looking at everything familiar around him, "Have you ever regretted not going to Yanjing with me?" ”

Thirteen shook his head.

"No, a few catties and a few taels are still clear, in terms of taking care of people, it can't compare to Wu Shizi, and it's worse than martial arts to General Dian and General Xu, stay in the Hou Mansion, the small one can still be somewhat useful, and the big and small things in the family are also familiar, and occasionally you can use it as half a manager."

"If you can say that, my heart will be steady, you grew up with me, and the one you want to promote the most is Ling, but I don't dare, and I'm afraid!"

Su Chen in turn grabbed his shoulders and walked on the stone bridge together: "Although you and I have a master-servant relationship, I really treat you as a brother, you are lazy and lazy, if you are on an errand, whether it is in the court or in the army, you delay important things, what should I do with you?" I can't kill you, and it's hard to convince the public if I don't kill you!

So, you stay here, it really reassures me, by the way, you got married to a maid in the house the year before last, right? I can't rush back in Yanjing, you can take this! ”

Su Chen untied a jade pendant from his waist, and the carving of the double dragon play beads on it made the jade even more transparent with green onions, without a trace of variegation.

"As long as it is not a major crime of killing the country and the people, with this jade pendant, you and the whole family will be protected!"

This is equivalent to a death-free gold medal, of course, there is no death-free gold medal in this world, but Yu Pei and Su Chen's promise is not fake, everyone knows that Xia Guotianzi has a spit and a nail, and he has always done what he said.

Thirteen didn't dare to reach out to pick it up, but he was still forced into Su Chen's arms, which made Thirteen's tears and snot on his face, and he knelt on the ground and kowtowed and sobbed.

"Get out!"

Su Chen kicked him, Thirteen covered his ass and laughed, and the baby took the jade pendant into his arms and put it close to him, leading Su Chen back to the South Courtyard as he did back then.

"Your Majesty, even if you live in the palace all the year round, I will come to clean this southern courtyard every day, clean it with my own hands, the study and bedroom over there, and wipe every piece of wood with my own hands."

was kicked and thirteen returned to the original temperament, although there were some witty words, but in his ears, Su Chen was very moved in his heart.

"Dian Wei, Xu Chu, and Wu Zixun, you can sleep in the left and right wings." Returning to the bedroom after a long absence, Su Chen also asked the three of them to go down to rest, and then Zheng He, after entering the South Courtyard, was asked to take Su Chen to rest first.

Here, Thirteen made the bed, came over to help Su Chen take off his cumbersome robe, and said casually: "Your Majesty, when you come back this time, do you want to go over there to have a look?" ”

Su Chen was stunned for a moment, then nodded.

"Naturally, you have to go, tomorrow morning, you will prepare the carriage, don't make a noise."

"Okay, I'll get ready for the little ones later." Thirteen spoke more, and hung the robe he took off on the hanger: "Over there, the little one is free, so he goes over and stares, everything is as usual." ”

Su Chen understood the meaning of his words, and kicked him in the ass again, driving him out of the bedroom.

"You can say this to my face? Hurry back to sleep. ”

The lights flickered, Su Chen lay on the bed, looked at the top of the fence, thinking of the people he would see in the past tomorrow, but he was a little nervous for no reason.

It's been five years......

He muttered.

Early the next morning, Su Chen got up early to wash, put on his robe under the service of the maids sent by the thirteen, and ate something casually in the south courtyard, so he only took Dian Wei and the thirteen carriages and sneaked away.

In the early morning, there were few pedestrians on the street, and after turning eight corners, the carriage stopped in an inconspicuous mansion in the southwest corner, and Thirteen jumped out of the chariot and knocked on the courtyard door with quick steps.

What's more, there was an old man in the porter who opened the door a crack, and when he saw the thirteenth, "Why are you ......?"

The eyes of the old man in the porter then saw Su Chen, who got out of the car, and Dian Wei, who seemed to be a guard, standing behind the thirteen like iron towers, and the momentum of the two of them frightened the old man, and it took a long time to squeeze out.

"Who are you looking for?"

"Go and tell Jiang Wan, just say that the old people of Yanjing are visiting."

The old man of the porter actually didn't know much about the main family, only knew that he had moved to Ding'an from the outside, not to mention the orphans and widows, and he was pregnant, he had been here for five years, and he had only seen the male owner's house appear once.

Su Chen has also changed a lot in the past five years, not only is he burly and tall, but his beard is much thicker than back then, in a blink of an eye, the old man in the porter didn't recognize it, and when Su Chen approached him, he said "ouch", and hurriedly opened the door completely.

"The little old man is dizzy, and he can't see who is outside."

As he spoke, he went over to welcome Su Chen in, and hurriedly led the way in front, beckoned a maid from the past, and brought the news to the backyard.

"No, I'll go by myself."

Su Chen smiled and sent the old man of the porter away, for here, there is still some familiarity, he led Dian Wei and Thirteen around the vestibule, on the way there, he also saw a twelve or thirteen-year-old boy hurrying over, the moment he saw Su Chen, he was stunned in place, and then ...... Betake oneself to one's heels.

"Your Majesty, that's ...... Beigong Shu? ”

"Well, it really looks like Kitamiyano."

Su Chen smiled and said to Dian Wei, Thirteen had never seen Emperor Qianyan, and he probably understood it, and followed closely: "Your Majesty, in addition to filial piety, this Beigong Shu is really a gentleman, and when he gets to the street, the people around him have to avoid him, just like His Majesty at that ......time."

Thirteen wanted to say that he was as smug as Su Chen was back then, but when he realized that he had said the wrong thing, he quickly closed his mouth

"Hehe, he's not a gentleman...... Probably died early. Dian Wei laughed beside him.

"Jiang Wan knows this, so she raised this child to be a gentleman." Su Chen had a faint smile on his face, "She's very smart......"

At this point, Su Chen walked into the backyard and saw a little girl from a distance, sitting under the eaves with her chin in her hands, ignoring the maid who was feeding medicine beside her.

When she saw Su Chen, the little girl tilted her head, stood up in some surprise, and asked crisply: "Who are you, how did you come to my house, my mother can say it, this is the backyard...... Outsiders can't come in, get out! ”

"This little girl is so timid, Your Majesty, this temperament is a bit like you." Dian Wei couldn't help laughing when he looked at the cute appearance of the little doll who was only about five years old.

should have been kind, but this smile directly frightened the little girl under the eaves, and pulled the panicked maid next to her, spread her feet, turned around and ran.

"Hurry up, hurry up, tell my mother, there's a monster in the backyard!"

Dian Wei: "......"

He tilted his head to look at Thirteen, "Am I so scary? ”

Thirteen focused on his head.

"It's almost cannibalistic."

Su Chen on the side looked at the little girl who escaped under the eaves with interest, his teeth were exposed, and he snapped his fingers, "You guys are waiting for me here." ”

After that, he chased after him, and guessed in his heart that this was his daughter.

……

Over there, the little girl ran into the flower garden in the backyard in a panic, shouting as she ran in a panic.

"Mother, there's a monster in the house!"

Not far away, butterflies and bees flew in the flower beds, and the young man before was also here at this time, a plump back beside him squatted on the ground to trim the flowers and plants, heard the panting son next to him, and heard the voice of his daughter, she frowned slightly, and then slowly got up and looked behind.

Cornice, a familiar figure walked out.

The maid who was guarding the flower garden saw the person coming, and when she knelt down, the scissors in the woman's hand also fell to the ground with a snap.
