Chapter 326
Wen Tingzhou and his party did not go along the way. The army was walking in the inner water route, mostly along the rivers, which was much closer than the sea route. Otherwise, no matter what, Wen Tingzhou would have to come back and meet Muyun before leaving.
When they came, the boat was going straight, and the journey was smooth, so it arrived in less than a month. Now they returned, and the boat was moving slowly, and they encountered several storms on the way. Although they later changed to the water route, they still walked for more than three months before they arrived in the capital.
When they set out, Jiangcheng, located in the South China Sea, was still a little chilly. When they arrived in the capital, it was already the hot summer when everyone waved their fans.
Wen Tingzhou received a letter from Mu Yun half a month ago. He thought they were about to arrive in the next two days, so he sent his servants to wait at the dock early in the morning. When he saw their official boat, his servants ran to the yamen to deliver letters to Wen Tingzhou.
On the other side, the manager who was waiting at the dock quickly got on the boat to pay tribute to Mu Yun, and asked someone to carry the sedan chairs prepared in the morning to the boat and carry the masters ashore.
Mu Yun and the others first got on the sedan chair and then changed their carriages. When they walked to the city gate, Mu Yun lifted the curtains of the carriages and saw the towering city gate tower in front of them, they were really moved.
When you enter the city, through the thin window screens, you can still see the endless stream of people on the streets. Although Jiangcheng is also a very prosperous sea trade port, there are fewer people than the capital. Besides, the weather is different. After all, it is at the foot of the emperor, and even the bluestone slabs on the road show a different magnificent atmosphere.
The carriage soon arrived in front of his homestead. The servants left behind in the mansion knew that the hostess was about to return, so they cleaned the house early in the morning, and the bright red carpet was spread to more than ten meters in front of the door. The central doors that had been closed were all opened at this time, and the servants were waiting on both sides of the door to welcome the hostess' return.
When he returned to the backyard, Mu Yun saw the manager and others who came to pay their respects, so he let them go down. He prepared hot water early in the morning, Mu Yun took a hot bath, washed away his fatigue, and then ate a little food and fell asleep.
In the end, Yin Liu came in and woke her up. Mu Yun got up and touched her dizzy head and asked, "When is it now?" Asked, he got out of bed and put on his shoes.
Yin Liu replied, "Mrs. It's Shin Shichu now."
Mu Yun calculated the time and she had slept for more than two hours. She angrily said, "I've been sleeping for so long, and you don't even call me!"
Yin Liu smiled and said, "How long has it been since Madam been sleeping so peacefully? I can't bear to call you when I see you sleeping so well, and I want to let you sleep for a while."
Mu Yun took Yinxin and handed over the tea, drank it, rinsed it, and then changed into a piece of clothes.
After she got up, she asked, "Have you sent all the posts I asked to send to each company before lunch?" Since she was back, she would have to send a letter to people close to her. As for the earth and other items she brought back, she hadn't seen them in the past two years. She would have to visit them in person, and it would be more decent to send them out in person at that time.
Yin Liu replied: "The boys who sent the letter are all back. When the families heard that the wife was back, everyone was very happy. Others still said that the wife knew about the wife's return to Beijing and was going to take a bus to come right now, but the eldest lady persuaded her to persuade her."
Now that Madam Yun is following Qingkong to retire, Jiang Xu personally invited her. Wen Tingzhou had also invited her, but Madam Yun didn't agree. I don't know what Jiang Xu said to the Madam, but she actually made the Madam pass by willingly. Mu Yun even cursed Jiang Xu for several days!
Upon hearing this, Mu Yun sighed lightly: "I miss my mother very much, so I'll go to my sister's house to see her tomorrow."
To her, Madam Yun was naturally not as good as her mother in her previous life, but Mu Yun was not an ignorant person. She also loved and respected Madam Yun very much.
When Wen Tingzhou learned that his wife had returned to Beijing, he returned home early in the afternoon. The couple had not seen each other for more than half a year, so naturally they had an indescribable affection. The young men were also tactful and asked their father for their care and left, leaving the couple alone in the room.
Mu Yun looked at Wen Tingzhou's skin that was not tanned on weekdays and became a little dark, especially when he stayed in the southwest for some days, the ultraviolet rays there were strong, and the people who fought the war had a solemn atmosphere. When they first met, the few young people were almost beaten by the solemn atmosphere on their father.
After the children left, the couple naturally felt tender and sweet, and then went out to have a reunion dinner with the children.
But at night, long separation is better than a newlywed marriage, so it is natural that it is raining. After that, after the two separated for so long, Mu Yun couldn't sleep for a while, so he hugged Wen Tingzhou and started talking. After talking for a long time, Wen Tingzhou suddenly mentioned Wen Sui: "By the way, I forgot to tell you that Sui Ge'er's marriage is full of clues."
His words made Mu Yun, who was originally a little sleepy, wake up a little when he heard this, and asked quickly: "Really? Whose girl is it?"
It is said that Wen Sui's marriage should have been decided long ago, but his situation is not enough to be high or low. In recent years, he has been following Wen Tingzhou back and forth, which has been delayed.
Mu Yun originally planned to settle back to Beijing and settle down as soon as possible. However, it is still difficult to handle the difficult marriage. Although Wen Sui has reached the sixth rank with military merits, he still does not look down on it in the eyes of those middle-aged people. But his family is too low and he looks down on it. Now that she has heard that Wen Sui’s marriage has made a name for herself, why is she not happy?
Wen Tingzhou smiled and said, "It's not someone else, it's Wei Shan's daughter."
When Mu Yun heard this, his first reaction was a little unhappy. Weishan's family? Weishan was fine, but his wife Long was not a good person. If Wen Sui became her son-in-law, it would be difficult to get a good job. But Mu Yun couldn't figure it out. Hasn't Long always been above his gaze? A few years ago, he revealed that he wanted to marry a third-rank official daughter for his son. Can such a person fall in love with Wen Sui, an orphan whose parents died and have no permanent possession? Mu Yun was a little unbelievable that Long would change his mind.
These are just her thoughts in her heart, so she naturally would not say anything to Wen Tingzhou. She knew that Wen Tingzhou had always been interested in Wei Shan, Bai Han and other old subordinates. Therefore, she did not rush to express her opinions, but asked with a smile: "If you want to know each other, they have known each other in private for many years. They have never met anything before, so why are they suddenly discussing marriage now?"
So Wen Tingzhou told Mu Yun about the incident. It turned out that when he was fighting against the enemy army in the Barbarian Kingdom, Wei Shan was unfortunately injured by an opponent's general. He accidentally fell off the horse's back in pain, and saw that the enemy general's machete was about to chop him towards his neck. Thanks to Wen Sui in the distance, he shot the enemy to the ground with an arrow, saving Wei Shan's life. Later, Wen Sui rode a horse and pulled Wei Shan to his horse's back, and protected him all the time in the chaos.
After the war, in order to thank Wen Sui for saving his life, Wei Shan specifically said that he would be betrothed his daughter Wei Zhenzhen to him. Wen Sui had met Wei Zhenzhen and remembered that Wei Zhenzhen was a very beautiful and gentle girl's house. He thought that he was really old, so he agreed immediately.
Speaking of this, Wen Tingzhou said again: "After returning to the capital, Sui Ge'er originally wanted to invite the official media to come to propose marriage. However, Wei Shan's wife said that there is no female relative in charge here and felt that it was not solemn enough, so she specially waited for you to come back to help with the matter."
Hearing this, Mu Yun was already sure that Long was not very enthusiastic about this marriage.
But she was excited when she saw Wen Tingzhou mentioning this matter. It was probably even worse for Wen Sui than him. Mu Yun couldn't go up and pour cold water on it. She thought it would be too late to go to Tan Long's mouth first and then make a decision after a few days of free time. What if they think Wen Sui is a potential stock that likes him?
