In mid-December, after being away for nearly three months, Xiao Yeyang returned to the palace with rice and braved the heavy snow.

"Why have you been out for so long? The New Year is coming soon!"

Daohua personally cleaned the snow off the coats of father and son. Although her words contained some complaints, the longing in her eyes could not be concealed.

Seeing his father obeying the instructions obediently, Daozi covered his mouth and snickered, took off his cloak, and went into the house to see his younger brothers and sisters.

When Daohua saw Daozi running away, she didn't care. She twisted the hot handkerchief and wiped Xiao Yeyang's face.

Xiao Yeyang washed up, and then drank a large bowl of milk tea. After his body warmed up, he said: "After the refugee resettlement was handed over to the prefects, I didn't worry too much. That's why I came back late.

This is because I brought a group of female relatives to various military towns."

Daohua looked surprised: "Female family members?"

Xiao Yeyang nodded: "Many of the soldiers guarding the border are not married. This problem must be solved. Every time there is a disaster, many families sell their daughters. I gave Uncle Huang a seal and talked about this problem."

"Don't tell me, this time we really attracted a lot of girls to be married. Although there are still more monks and less meat, it at least gives single soldiers hope and hope."

Daohua: "But such opportunities are too rare after all. If you really want to solve the problem of soldiers getting married, you have to think of other ways."

Xiao Yeyang said 'hmm': "Yeah, in the end it still depends on the development of Xiliang. As long as Xiliang develops and has a large population, the soldiers will naturally be able to find wives. They will attract people from other provinces.

, it’s a trail after all.”

Without continuing the topic, Daohua asked about Daozi's performance.

Xiao Yeyang couldn't help laughing: "That brat is indeed our son, he is smarter than I thought."

"This time I took him to visit all twelve military towns and gave him a task to find out the secrets in each military town."

"How do you think he found it? He went directly to those veterans to get information. Before that, I didn't know that brat was so talkative. Don't tell me, I actually let him complete the mission in the end."<

/p>

Daohua couldn't help laughing and said: "That's because Daozi is so articulate."

Xiao Yeyang also smiled: "Yes, yes, this is like you." He said, paused, "So many refugees have been relocated this time, and the wasteland has been reclaimed. Xiliang will get better and better in the future.

."

When resting at night, Xiao Yeyang thought of something and said to Daohua: "Next April will be Uncle Huang's sixtieth birthday. We have to go back to Beijing to celebrate his birthday."

Hearing this, Daohua stood up suddenly: "Really?!"

Seeing Daohua's surprised expression, Xiao Yeyang smiled, pulled her down and lay down again: "Of course it's true, how many years have we been in Xiliang?"

Daohua: "Ten years."

Xiao Yeyang looked a little sighing: "It's been so long, it's time to go back and take a look."

When the rice flowers bloomed, she would be able to return to Beijing after the Chinese New Year. She was so excited that she couldn't sleep. Although she had been visiting every year for ceremonial purposes in the past few years, she had not seen anyone in person. She still thought about her grandmother and mother.

Seeing that she was tossing and turning and not sleeping, Xiao Yeyang had to reach out and hug her: "After the New Year, I will assign the errands early, and we will set off back to Beijing in February."

......

It’s New Year’s Eve in a blink of an eye.

Because she knew she could return to Beijing after the Chinese New Year, Daohua was in a particularly good mood, so that during this year’s Chinese New Year, everything in the Weiyuan Palace was filled with joy.

The twins are talking, running and jumping very quickly. They are chasing rice everywhere and playing, and the house is filled with their cheerful laughter.

As soon as the Lantern Festival was over, Daozi found his mother packing things, and asked in confusion: "Mom, why are you packing things? Dad didn't say he was going away?"

There was obvious joy on Daohua's face: "This time, it's not your father who is going away, but our whole family."

Dao Zi's eyes lit up: "Are we going for an outing?" As he said that, he looked at the things packed by the maids and women, with a puzzled look on his face, "But did you prepare too many things?"

Daohua smiled and said: "Not much, we have to go out for several months this time."

Dao Zi was overjoyed and ran over to hug Dao Hua: "Mom, where are we going?"

Daohua looked at Daozi with a smile: "Your grandpa Huang's Longevity Festival is coming, and we have to go back to Beijing to celebrate his birthday."

"Go back to Beijing?"

Dao Zi was stunned for a moment, and then immediately became excited: "Mom, are we going back to Beijing?" He has never been to Beijing before.

"Then can I see grandma and grandpa Chu?"

Daohua: "Yes, not only can you see grandma and grandpa Chu, but you can also see your grandfather, grandpa, grandma, and great-grandma. You have many relatives in the capital. You can see them all when you go back this time.

Here we are.”

Dao Zi was really happy: "There's still fourth brother!" He said and ran outside the house, "Mom, I'll tell my ancestor to go and help him pack his luggage together."

Daohuaxiao looked at her son who disappeared after a while, shook her head, and continued to take the maids to pack things. When they were almost done, she walked to Nanshan Hall.

As soon as she entered Nanshan Hall, Daohua saw Daozi's mouth pouting high.

"What's going on? Weren't you very happy just now?"

Dao Zi looked at Dao Hua: "Mom, our ancestors said he would not return to Beijing."

Daohua looked blank, asked Daozi to look at the twins, and walked into the house.

Gu Jian sat in front of the fireplace in the house, concentrating on polishing the children's wooden horses made for the twins.

"Master..."

Gu Jian raised his eyes and looked at Daohua, and said directly: "I won't go back to Beijing with you. That place... I don't want to set foot in it again."

Daohua couldn't help but to persuade her now. For the master and the deceased ancient mother-in-law, the capital was their nightmare and sad place.

Seeing his apprentice looking at him with worry, Gu Jian laughed and said, "You, you have become more and more fond of worrying over the years. There are so many people in the mansion, and Dongli and Caiju are here. I'll stay in the mansion."

It can save you the trouble of traveling and traveling."

"You and Yeyang, just keep an eye on your three children. That place in the capital is a big dye vat. Don't let the children come back with some messy habits."

"I haven't even visited Duke Fu's mansion. After you go back this time, take the rice seedlings there and have a good look at it, and arrange for some reliable people to guard it. The rice seedlings have grown up and they have to go back to live there."<

/p>

"As for the emperor, I will send him a letter. I am an old man and I can't stand the trouble. I think he can understand."

Hearing this, Daohua's eyes flashed, and she was shocked to realize that the emperor was already sixty, and the master was about to turn eighty.

After the last serious illness, Master looked older than before.

After thinking about it, Daohua said: "Master, I won't go back to Beijing with Xiao Yeyang this time. I will let him take Daozi to celebrate Uncle Huang's birthday. When they come back, I will take the twins back to Beijing to see them.

Look at grandma and the others, they won’t waste time together.”

"Yes, that's it."

"Fuck you!"

Gu Jian looked at Daohua speechlessly. He benefited from his apprentice's concern, but his apprentice has been by his side all these years. Now that he finally has the opportunity to return to Beijing to see his parents, how can he leave him behind?

"The family came back in two batches. For those who didn't know, I thought you were two families. You are a mother of three, and you still speak so carelessly."

"It will only take a few months for you to go back. Without you, what else can I do?"
