Traveling to Daliang Kingdom starts from falling into the water

Unless, his wife... Gu Wenxuan was suddenly panicked, so panicked that he forgot for a moment that if something happened to Zhou Banxia, ​​how could Jiaxing dare to hide it from him?
Soon, he realized that it was not someone outside who mentioned Doctor Dong or Doctor Song's uncle, but Jiaxing who came out after hearing the news.

Before the car door could be opened and the driver could enter from the west door, Jiaxing was heard in a joyful tone instructing the servant to go to the second gate to inform the second young lady that the second young master was back.

what's the situation?
Seven-year-old boys and girls sit on separate seats.

At this time, the male guests should have dinner in the front hall. Why didn't he ask the servant to inform the master first, but informed the Second Young Madam who must be in the inner courtyard?

While Gu Wenxuan was puzzled, as the carriage slowly stopped, Dajiang had already started asking Jiaxing where his third brother and the third young master of the Qi family were at the moment.

"…The Second Young Master's Madam said that the Second Young Master will definitely come back overnight. If you come back with him, please let me remember to send someone to inform Mai Huang…"

That's right.

There was a banquet at home. At this moment, the female members were in the flower hall in the inner courtyard of the main courtyard, while the young and old masters were in the living room. Why did Jiaxing ask the servant to inform the second young lady first?

It was his wife who gave the order first.

Gu Wenxuan got off the carriage one step behind Dajiang. He glanced at Jiaxing who was still replying to Dajiang and had no intention of listening to what Jiaxing said next.

In the light of the lantern, he took a look at Dajiang's clothes and seeing nothing unusual, he took the lead and walked in front to the banquet hall.

Ballroom.

There are already many people sitting here.

In addition to the third young masters of the Zhou and Qi families and Doctor Song who came from afar, there were also Doctor Dong, Zhou Sishun, Ma Dazhuang, Ma Dahu, Li Chunsheng, and the father and son Gu Erzhu and Gu Erlang.

When Gu Wenxuan and Zhou Yujiang came in one after the other, there was no need for introduction. It was obvious at a glance that there were only two unfamiliar faces among the people present.

The older man among them, who is about thirty years old, is undoubtedly Doctor Song, the husband of Doctor Lin, the female doctor.

The young man sitting next to Zhou Yanfeng looked 70% like Mr. Qi Sanye, so it was obvious that he was the third son of the Qi family.

I don't know if Uncle Qi's brothers look alike, so the nephew takes after his father and also looks like the third uncle, or if it's genetic inheritance from the previous generation, so the nephew directly looks like the third uncle.

Anyway, his husband had three sons, Zhou Yanqing, Zhou Yanhai and Zhou Yanfeng, and only the eldest son Zhou Yanqing looked about 60% like his husband.

It is said that the two brothers Zhou Yanhai and Zhou Yanfeng look like their grandfather, especially the second brother Zhou Yanhai, who even stayed in his ancestral home outside Yangzhou Prefecture for two years because of his similar appearance.

Those present were either elders or peers, including his brother-in-law Zhou Xiaosan. Gu Wenxuan naturally would not let them stand up to greet his uncle and nephew.

As he walked quickly forward, he chatted and laughed as he bowed to the elders above him, then sat down next to Zhou Yanfeng and the others and started chatting with the third young master of the Qi family.

Although he didn't know whether Uncle Qi sent his nephew out for a mission to target Dajiang, he was still kind enough to let Dajiang walk around the scene by himself.

Putting aside the fact that Dajiang has never seen the girl, he won't say anything about whether his brother-in-law is a good person or not. It shows sincerity to let his brother-in-law show his true colors.

If the other party is blind and shows the slightest sign that he thinks his brother-in-law is not worthy of the daughter of the Qi family, then forget it and don't even mention the marriage in the future.

"…Are you used to it?"

As he was talking, Gu Wenxuan was asking about the third young master of the Qi family, and inadvertently interrupted the other party's observation of Dajiang who was still respectfully responding to the questions of his elders.

As a result, the other party had to look away, "It couldn't be better. I'm not being polite. If I didn't have to go back to celebrate the New Year, I wouldn't want to go back to Beijing after coming here."

I originally thought that we were going to an unknown village. Although it was still in the capital area, it was not the suburbs of Beijing after all. And I heard that we still had to go past Zhoujia Village.

In such a remote place, what good family could there be? Before leaving, he wondered what kind of magic potion his uncle had given the old ancestor. In fact, she was indeed the niece that Uncle Zhou regarded as his own daughter.

Even more shocking than what I heard.

I originally thought that the embroidery work from the ancestor was enough to prove that this girl's superb embroidery skills were learned from Uncle Zhou's eldest sister, and therefore she was favored by Uncle Zhou.

But after she came, not to mention how this woman returned to the village less than two years later, her husband and younger brother made a splash from the county examination to the imperial examination under her encouragement, in this village.

Unlike the several workshops in ordinary villages, these were actually built by this woman, and the winter supplies were not something that ordinary families could afford.

Just like the meals we had in the past two days, the delicacies from land and sea were not that great. As the place was remote, they were only bought at high prices. What caught our eyes were the fresh fruits and vegetables.

There is no hot spring village here. In addition to the radishes and cabbages available in winter, there are also some fruits and vegetables that are only available in summer or have never been seen before.

It comes from the greenhouse, and it can preserve fresh vegetables. How can it not be a very good industry? No wonder Uncle San praised this woman so much.

She is a man of talent like Tao Zhugong, but she also knows how to choose the right time to retire. With this woman guiding them, it may be possible for the Zhou and Gu governments to become the new elites in the capital in the future.

The inner court.

The main house flower hall.

There are also quite a few female relatives sitting here.

In addition to the female guest who came from afar, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of the Ma family were also present. Even Old Lady Gu was present tonight. Logically, Gu Wenxuan and Dajiang should have come to pay their respects.

Even though Zhou Banxia knew that Gu Wenxuan had returned and told Old Lady Gu privately, she still had to consider the many rules in a wealthy family and the fact that there were three young girls there late at night.

Liu heard Mrs. Gu's rare instructions, telling Gu Wenxuan and Dajiang not to come and pay their respects and disturb their fun, but to just stay in front and have fun.

After eating and drinking, the women left the banquet faster than the others.

After Old Lady Gu and others returned to the main courtyard, the east courtyard, and the cross-courtyard, Zhou Banxia also returned to the main courtyard of the west courtyard where she and her husband lived.

Not long after we arrived, a small river came.

In the past two days, his third brother came. Except for the regular time to go to school every day, he basically spent the rest of his time in the manor with his third brother.

Of course, during this period, he would also help his third brother to pass on messages to his third sister, recite books to his nephew, and make his third sister happy.

At this time, he came and was surprised why his third sister was still sitting in the hall at this time tonight. Maidong came forward and helped him take off her big fur cloak.

Pass the screen.

as predicted.

Mai Huang learned a new set of massage techniques from Doctor Lin and massaged his third sister three times a day. But even so, his third sister's legs were still swollen.

Xiao He believed that there were differences between men and women. He could not see whether his third sister's calves were swollen, but he knew, "Is it because she walked too much or stood for too long?"

Seeing Xiao He frowning, Zhou Banxia shook his head with a smile, "Don't look at Mai Huang hitting my shoulder. It's because I've been sitting for too long and my waist and back are a little sore.

Where did you come from? Did you see your third brother-in-law and his family? Are they getting along well?" (End of this chapter)
