Jinyi Music

But Silian stayed in Mao'er Alley with her two children, quietly waiting for Mou Biao to come home, and stayed like this for another three days. Mou Biao returned home before dawn, and Silian and the children were still sleeping. When he came back, only Wang's mother heard the movement and came out to greet him. Mou Biao sent her back to sleep. The person who thought about it reached out and pulled her into his arms. Si Lian was shocked by the cold air on his body, and immediately woke up, and opened her eyes in a daze.
"Xiao Lin, you're back!"

Si Lian burrowed into his arms, stretched out her arms to hug Mou Biao tightly, and her husband let out a long sigh of relief,

"It's finally back!"

The two hugged each other silently for a while, Si Lian raised her head and was about to ask him about the hard work on the way back, but she saw that her husband had closed his eyes, and snoring started after a while. This is really rare!

Si Lian quietly leaned into his arms, listening to his strong heartbeat, she also fell asleep in a daze, and when the day was bright outside, the maids screamed outside, and Si Lian quietly asked her husband Withdrew from his arms, carefully crawled over him, and left the room,
"Master is tired and still sleeping, please keep your voice down, don't disturb him!"

So everyone in the courtyard was quiet, even Yuru and Fu'er played in their room obediently, and stayed until after noon before Mou Biao woke up.
"Four lotus!"

He turned over and sat up, the first one was to call his wife, Silian came in and gave him a sweet smile,
"you're awake?"

Mou Biao nodded, Yi stretched out his hand to his wife at the head of the bed, Si Lian came over and leaned into his arms, and asked with a smile,

"I'm afraid this journey will be very hard, right?"

Mou Biao nodded, rubbed her cheeks, and kissed her soft mouth,
"It's okay to be tired, but I can't sleep well without you in my arms!"

Although he is the command envoy of the third rank, he can only be allocated a small cabin on the dragon boat. After he is off duty every day, he returns to the cabin and stays in the cramped little room. When he thinks of it, his wife and children are by his side. The scene, the more I feel that this job is boring!

"Ugh……"

No wonder since ancient times there have been emperors who didn't love the country and love beauties. It's not because the beauties misjudged the country, but the emperor himself didn't want to do this job!

"I have asked His Majesty for three days' leave. During these three days, I will not see any guests or go out to meet the appointment. I will stay with you at home!"

It would be best for her husband to be with her at home, Silian said happily,

"Then I'll cook a few side dishes myself!"

Mou Biao nodded and asked her again,

"I want to eat stewed meat, do you have meat at home?"

Silian thought for a while and said,

"Not really..."

The children and she all ate lightly, except for Mou Biao, because they didn't know when he would come back, and the family really didn't prepare for it.

Mou Biao got up and put on his clothes.

"Then... I will accompany you to the market today..."

So on this day, the husband and wife took two children with them, without a maid and woman guarding them. Mou Biao held a child in one hand, and Silien carried a bamboo basket in one hand, just like a family of four in an ordinary family going out. Usually, the four of them go out together to go shopping in the market. The two children rarely have such an opportunity. They are inexplicably excited along the way, sitting in the strong arms of their father, wrapping their arms around his neck, chatting non-stop. , sometimes the two siblings would quarrel while talking, and then they would stare at each other like two vindictive birds, then turn their heads to one side and turn their faces away, only for a moment, then turn their faces away again Come and make up, point to the street vendor together,

"Father, I want to eat ice cream!"

"Father, I want to eat too!"

Just as Mou Biao was about to nod his head and say yes, he hesitated for a while and turned to look at his wife. Sure enough, he saw Si Lian frowning and staring at him.

"That...ask your mother, but allow you to eat?"

Silian shook her head,

"You can't eat iced drinks this early in the morning, it hurts the spleen and stomach..."

Seeing Er Xiao immediately lose face, he smiled again,
"We didn't have breakfast when we went out. Why don't we go ahead and eat your favorite Weiji wontons. Their wontons have thin skin and lots of meat. One is so big, it's the most delicious. In the past, girls bought it outside. Let's go to the stall to eat today..."

Si Lian gestured to them, and the eyes of the two younger ones lit up immediately,

"I want to eat!"

"I want to eat too!"

"I want to eat too!"

Mou Biao also felt salivating when he heard this, his stomach was already rumbling, and he returned to Beijing earlier, His Majesty entertained all the officials in the palace, and he also participated in a palace banquet, but everyone knows that this palace The banquet here is just a good-looking one. From the beginning to the end of the dishes, he watched more and ate less. After that, he was so tired that he fell asleep when he got home. By this time, his chest was on his back!
The family of four went to the small stall at the corner of the street, and the stall owner came forward to greet the customers. Mou Biao looked at the wontons in the bowls of the early diners, and they were as Silian said, with thin skin and lots of meat. The boiled broth was as white as milk, so he asked for eight bowls. The stall owner was taken aback.
"Guest officer, you want so much, can you finish?"

Mou Biao waved his hand,
"Just cook as much as you can!"

Speaking of the children put them down, the eight bowls of wontons were brought out not long after, Fu'er and Yuru ate one bowl together, Silian ate one bowl, and gave the rest to Mou Biao, who ate it in a gust of wind After cleaning up, he stroked his stomach and then sighed.

"Finally full!"

Afterwards, the couple went to the market with the children in their arms. Si Lian felt sorry for her husband's hard work outside, and bought a lot of meat and vegetables. The bamboo baskets in his hands were full. When the four returned, Mou Biao carried his son in the He let Fu'er hold his head tightly, and then hugged his daughter with one hand and the bamboo basket with the other, but let his wife follow behind with empty hands. Si Lian was afraid that he would be tired, so she wanted to reach out to hold Yu Ru He hugged her, but was rejected by both father and daughter shaking their heads at the same time.

"I want daddy to hug me!"

Mu Biao also laughed and said,
"It's just such an idea, what can you get tired of, you just go your own way!"

So the family of four went back to Maoer Hutong. The market here is very close to Maoer Hutong. Most of the people who come here to buy vegetables are the family members of Beizhen Fusi and the nearby yamen. Some of them know the Commander of Jinyiwei. Yes, seeing the happy and harmonious appearance of the whole family, when I went back, I grabbed my man who was still sleeping soundly on the bed, and scolded me all the time.
"Look at you, you don't talk about the price all day long, and you go to the inn when you get home. After throwing away the money, you stretch out your clothes, open your mouth when you eat, and wait for your old lady to serve you!"

The man who was awakened looked bewildered,

"What's the matter, what kind of muscle has been stepped on by you!"

I saw my mother-in-law throwing the vegetable basket in her hand, sitting on the edge of the bed and cursing,

"Look for yourself, the sun is drying your ass outside, and you are still sleeping..."

"Didn't I just come back after working outside?"

"You are on an errand outside, and the Commander is not on an errand outside. Didn't he just come back from the south with His Majesty? Why did he take his wife and children to buy vegetables early this morning?"

"Shopping for vegetables? Does our adult buy vegetables?"

"Isn't that right? Both the young master and the young lady are holding each other in their arms, and they even carried the vegetable basket for the madam..."

Speaking of this place, the woman couldn't help punching her man's fist back,

"I have been married to you for so many years, let alone let you carry the vegetable basket, even if the oil bottle at home is down, you don't see you to help. You keep saying that you are doing errands. Don't tell me your adults don't do errands. How can he be able to do it?" If you love my wife, you can't, no wonder you are still a small flag after so many years, and you became a third-rank official at a young age, it's all because of your love for your mother-in-law!"

"Hey! You mother-in-law speaks so much nonsense! Look at the officials in the court, there are officials who study, and officials who kill the enemy, but you don't say that you can love an official who loves a mother-in-law! Really long hair, short knowledge, go to cook, don't prevent me from sleeping!"

His mother-in-law was furious, turned and left,

"I don't want to make a fart meal. You just wait to starve to death. I don't see what kind of official you are!"

When I went out, I took the two children out. The man on the bed didn’t care at first, but when he got up after getting enough sleep, he found that there was nothing in the house. The stove was cold, the pot was empty, and even the vegetables he bought in the morning were empty Throw it on the ground, and the children are gone!
Can't help but curse,
"This mother-in-law is going against the sky!"

He still thought it was his wife who made her temper, and he came back in a short time. He just waited and waited. When it was dark, his stomach was flattened, and no one came back. , to coax the furious mother-in-law back from her natal home...

After staying like this for three days, Mou Biao went back to the yamen, and all his subordinates looked strange when they saw him.

"What's wrong?"

Mou Biao glanced at the crowd below in confusion. His subordinates had weird expressions on their faces, and finally someone couldn't help but speak up.

"My lord, that...can you not go out to buy groceries when you are resting..."

……

The fact that Commander Jin Yiwei accompanied his wife to buy vegetables in person was a good story among the family members of the Fusi yamen in Beizhen, but the people in the other yamen knew about it, but they all scoffed.

"A manly man, he should be a person who does great things. How could he circle the stove like that woman? He really is worthless. Fortunately, he is still a third-rank official!"

Mou Biao was laughed at by others, and it was heard in his ears, but he laughed it off. Silian is a woman in the inner house, and she doesn't know the rumors outside, and she still lives her life peacefully. Yes, Zeng Lu'er sent someone over there to deliver the letter, and Si Lian took the children to Tongzhou in a carriage.

When they arrived in Tongzhou, Silian put the children in the house, and then went to the pier, and saw that three of the five boats of grain had been unloaded, and there were still two unloaded. Zeng Luer accompanied Silian,
"Ma'am, our warehouse can only hold three ships, and there are two more ships left. I'm trying to find a way to rent a warehouse from someone..."

Speaking of this, Zeng Luer was a little distressed and said,

"I don't know who leaked the news that my five ships were grain. The small ones found a few companies. When they talked about renting warehouses, they all said they didn't want money, they only said that they would pay for it with grain. The small ones didn't dare to make decisions. We can only wait for Madam to make a decision!"
