I don't know when, Xu Lingyi quietly walked to Eleven Niang's side.

He was darker and thinner than before, but he was in good spirits and looked at her with piercing eyes: "We have washed and freshened up, so we can go and say hello to the madam."

For some reason, his words made Eleven Niang blush slightly. She hummed softly, and followed Brother Jin and Yingniang side by side with Xu Lingyi.

So, my eldest cousin is going to Yaowang Temple on the eighth day of April. Brother Jin is chatting with Yingniang. I have been there several times with my grandmother. Although the place is not the most prosperous, the things are sold the most.

Okay. Unlike Daxiangguo Temple, where the beads are said to be sandalwood, they are actually made of willow.

Brother Jin seemed casual, but the corner of his eye was staring behind him from time to time.

Seeing his mother quietly following his father, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.

Sure enough, he said a lot and made a lot of mistakes.

In the future, this máo disease needs to be corrected.

Thinking of this, he smiled and asked Yingniang: What fun things can I do when I am not in the house? Yingniang thought about it and said with a smile: The Chun Banquet on March 3rd was very fun that day.

He successfully dropped the topic to Ying Niang'er.

Seeing the two people talking happily, Xu Lingyi and Eleven Niang couldn't help exchanging glances.

The maids, daughters-in-law and mothers-in-law who passed by saluted the two of them one after another.

Zhihong came towards this side with two little maids in a panic. Her wandering eyes suddenly fell on the two of them, and they all breathed a sigh of relief.

The Marquis, Madam, Sixth Young Master, and the eldest cousin, she saluted hurriedly. The Madam knew that the Marquis was back and was coming this way. The servants went and wrote but did not see the Marquis and his wife. The Sixth Young Master, I understand.

Xu Lingyi said in a deep voice, "We are going back to the house now. Zhihong bowed with his knees bent and left with a little maid."

Xu Lingyi glanced at Eleven Niang with a smile, as if to say, you are the only one who delayed your dressing up so that the wife could not find anyone.

Eleven Niang glanced at him and couldn't help laughing.

The smile in Xu Lingyi's eyes was deeper and his eyes were brighter.

Eleven Niang suddenly panicked. She quickly caught up with her son as if to avoid him: Why did you come back so quickly without even looking at Xu Lingyi?

Anyway, we saw all the places we should see, so we came back early. Brother Jin was vague and quickly changed the subject, Mom, I’m also going to Yaowang Temple tomorrow.

Okay, Eleven Niang smiled, just remember not to run away when the time comes. Also remember to take good care of your eldest cousin. Mom, don't worry, Brother Jin quickly promised.

The three of them walked towards the main courtyard talking and laughing.

Xu Lingyi looked at their backs with joy in her eyes.

As soon as they entered the house, the madam arrived.

Xu Lingyi and Brother Jin hurriedly stepped forward to kowtow to the Dowager Madam.

The madam held her son with one hand and Biezi with the other: It would be good to come back, it would be good to come back. She couldn't help but shed tears.

Mom, my parents are here, not far away. Xu Lingyi’s eyes were moist, and he knelt down in front of the wife again. I am unfilial and have made you worry. Brother Jin looked at it and hurriedly knelt down.

The madam bent down to help Xu Lingyi, and then told Brother Jin to get up with a tearful smile. Then she and Xu Lingyi sat side by side in front of the big Kang by the window, looking at Xu Lingyi carefully.

Xu Lingyi smiled quietly at the Dowager Madam and allowed her mother to look at her.

She has become darker and thinner, the madam said, tears falling again.

Eleven Niang hurriedly handed over the veil.

The madam took the veil and just wiped away her tears and thought about something, tears fell again.

"Mom, isn't this good for me?" Xu Lingyi choked with sobs and couldn't continue talking.

Everyone in the room had wet eyes, and the two little maids covered their mouths and started crying silently.

Grandma, Grandma, Brother Jin suddenly jumped up in front of the Madam. Can you see if I have lost weight or become darker? The sad atmosphere in front of the Madam with a smile on his face was immediately broken by him.

The madam didn't know that this was Ziezi trying to make her happy.

Oh yo yo, Mrs. Tai hugged Brother Jin with both tears and laughter. My darling, show me to grandma quickly. It’s okay if you don’t look at her. But when you look closely, Mrs. Tai can’t help but change her color. Why is she so thin?

"Is there no food on the way? Where did you go?" He said, looking at Xu Lingyi suspiciously.

We just walked around Jiayuguan. Xu Lingyi asked hurriedly, how could there be nothing to eat? Brother Jin had to eat three big kang sour buns in one meal. Otherwise, why would he have grown taller again? Mrs. Tai still had a look in her eyes.

Doubtful.

It's true. Brother Jin smiled and said, Cuoyang said, I ate their whole family's food rations in one day. Mrs. Cuoyang looked at Xu Lingyi in confusion.

He is an orphan picked up by brother Jin in Jiayuguan. Xu Lingyi smiled and said, he is about the same age as brother Jin and he is very clever. Jin Keer wanted to bring him back, so I agreed. As he said that, Xu Sichen hugged him.

Came here with the child.

Father., He saluted Xu Lingyi respectfully, smiled and greeted Brother Jin as his sixth brother.

The eyes of Xu Lingyi and Brother Jin both fell on Brother Ting in Madam Ru's arms.

Mother nanny cleverly carried Brother Ting to Xu Lingyi.

Xu Lingyi smiled and shook Brother Ting's white and tender little hand. Brother Ting already knew how to recognize people. He stared at Xu Lingyi with his eyes wide open, looking very cute.

Xu Lingyi couldn't help but feel happy.

Brother Jin ran over: Give me a hug

The nun didn't dare to hesitate, but she looked towards Mrs. Jiang.

Mrs. Jiang hesitated and looked at Xu Sizhen.

Xu Sizhen didn't notice this at all. He looked at Brother Jin with a smile, watching Brother Jin awkwardly pick up Brother Ting, and coaxed Brother Ting to talk: I am your uncle Sixth, please call me Uncle Sixth.

Brother Ting tilted his head and looked at Brother Jin without blinking.

Eleven Niang hurriedly went over and hugged the child: Brother Ting couldn't speak yet. Then she handed the child to the nanny and held her son up quietly: "Okay, go and wash up. He's covered in mud, don't do it."

After Brother Ting was intoxicated, Brother Jin ran to Mrs. Tai with a smile: Grandma, I'm going to take a bath. After taking a bath, let's go see the things I sold. Don't leave.

, What a good thing. , and then as if he remembered something, he said to the other people in the room, "Everyone who sees it has a share, but those who leave will be gone."

The madam nodded repeatedly: OK, OK, OK I won’t leave, I won’t leave.

Everyone laughed.

The sad atmosphere disappeared.

The madam smiled and patted Xu Lingyi's hand: "You haven't washed up yet, go and change your clothes." Then she told the eleventh mother to have the kitchen cook some dishes that Brother Jin, the fourth brother, likes to eat. We are here today.

It's time for dinner.

Eleven Niang responded with a smile.

He met the Fifth Madam with her child. Before the Fifth Madam could speak, Brother Shen rushed to Eleven Mother: Fourth Aunt, Brother Six is ​​back, yes, Brother Jin is not at home, Brother Shen

It's not fun, she often runs over without realizing it and asks when Brother Jin will be back. Eleven Niang touched his head and he was taking a bath. He will be fine in a while. Brother Shen waited obediently.

After entering the room, he rolled his eyes and said to the wife: "I'm going to see why Brother Six hasn't finished washing yet so he doesn't fall into the toilet." Then he ran into the clean room in a hurry.

There was a commotion in the clean room.

Everyone outside the house laughed.

They shared things and told strange anecdotes until Xu Lingkuan came back, and there was another round of chatting. Then they gathered in the hall to have dinner. Yingying and Brother Ting had gone to bed long ago, and Mrs. Xiang and Mrs. Jiang went back with their children.

.Xu Lingyi, Xu Lingkuan, eleven mothers and five wives were sitting around the Tai Madam, listening to Xu Lingyi talk about the itinerary after leaving home. Sister Xin, Xu Sijieying, Niang Niang, brother Shen and brother Cheng were in the hall, talking in low voices and laughing and shouting.

, New Year’s Eve was just so lively. It wasn’t until the Madam yawned several times that everyone dispersed.

Xu Lingyi sent the wife back to her house.

Brother Shen wants to stay with Brother Jin.

Okay, Xu Lingkuan didn't take it seriously, just don't fight. The two guys happily thanked Xu Lingkuan again and again, and the fifth lady couldn't help laughing.

Eleven Niang sent everyone out to make the bed for Brother Jin. Ying Niang followed Eleven Niang and helped pass the bed here and there.

Brother Jin came over and asked Eleven Niang: Mom, when can I move to the outer courtyard? He looked very much looking forward to it.

Do you really want to move out? Eleven Niang was half-pretending, half sincere.

Oops, I’m not leaving either. Brother Jin hurriedly said, I’m just asking. Didn’t my mother always tell me to prepare for a rainy day? Don’t I also want to prepare in advance? Eleven mother looked at his excited face and couldn’t help but sigh.

Thousands.

My son has really grown up, but he is only ten years old this year. Is it too early to empty the nest so early?

She muttered something in her heart, hugged her son's shoulders tightly, and said nothing for a while.

It was already midnight when Xu Lingyi came back. Eleven Niang was sitting on the bedside, still waiting for him.

The dim light shines on her body, quiet and gentle.

Didn't I tell you to go to bed early? After walking in the Gobi desert and then coming back to see Eleven Niang, she was as delicate as bone china. He touched her face with a little caution, and his voice was softer than usual.

A little bit, he was afraid that I wouldn't come back. He smiled slightly, with a bit of ambiguous teasing, and kissed her cheek gently.

Eleven Niang didn't move.

She looked at Xu Lingyi with bright eyes: Lord Marquis, what do you want to do? There was undisguised worry in her voice.

Xu Lingyi was stunned.

She took Brother Jin to Jizhou, Datong, Xuantong, and Jiayuguan, and brought back the Miao headdress. She grabbed his sleeve tightly, don't tell me, you just want your son to

Go and see it. Her fingers are white. I asked him to read maps because I wanted him to travel to famous mountains and rivers, not to fight north and south. I asked him to practice martial arts to strengthen his body so that he would not be bullied.
