The Pastoral Empress Merchant

Chapter 754 Move out of Xiao Mansion?

Everyone was taken aback for a moment, and then realized that what the old concubine was talking about might be Mu Jinhua's marriage.

Mrs. Xiao stroked the beard on his chin without hiding it, and said with a smile: "This needs to be discussed slowly. After all, Xiaohua is the eldest son and only son of the Mu family. His marriage can't be sloppy. Mo Guogong only found out after discussing it in detail."

"Oh? I heard you say that Duke Mo also agreed?" the old concubine asked with a smile.

"Young people have their own ideas. The older generation can't control that much anymore. The girl Xiaohua and Xuerui are a good match both in appearance and personality. The two hit it off. Although the Mu family It’s only just started now, but Xiaohua’s future is bound to be bright, how can Duke Mo not agree with it?” Mrs. Xiao is [-]% satisfied with his grandson, and he can’t tolerate others’ dislike.

His grandson is not lacking in appearance, character and talent, and Mo Guogong is not satisfied with it. Although it seemed that Xiaohua was a little wronged because of Yao's matter before, this just shows that Xiaohua is kind, kind, and doesn't care about others. You know how to play tricks, that's why you are being calculated, isn't it?If Xuerui marries Xiaohua, she doesn't have to worry about being bullied after marriage, isn't that great?Besides, this girl Xue Rui and Xiao Xi are good friends, and Nian Xun and his wife are also easy to get along with. How can there be such a good family in the capital?
The people from the Duke of Mo’s mansion have already quietly come to the door to discuss, saying that if they are interested in getting married, they should settle the marriage as soon as possible, and then choose a good day to get married. Their Duke of Mo’s mansion agrees, it’s just this matter of marriage proposal No matter what, I still want the man to come to propose marriage, okay?

They were quite surprised at that time, it wasn't that they didn't want to come to propose marriage, but they just thought about Yao's incident not long ago, they were worried about what the people in Mo Guogong's mansion would think of Xiaohua at this time, so they thought Wait, wait until everyone gradually forgets about this matter, and then they will come to propose marriage. Unexpectedly, people from Mo Guogong's mansion will come to hint them first. It's procrastinating, this marriage is the best marriage, so it's better to settle it early.

So they have already discussed it. After the festival, they will find a time to go to the Duke of Mo's mansion to propose marriage, and then discuss the matter of the big wedding slowly.

The old concubine also nodded her head and joked, "That's right, Xiaohua has a good temper. If Xuerui marries him, she won't suffer a lot in the future. Besides, Xiaohua is probably a Xiangmomo now, so don't worry." If the Duke's Mansion doesn't act quickly, it will be snatched away!"

Mu Ankang and Xiao Nianxun felt a little embarrassed when their son was praised like this, and said in a low voice: "The old concubine praised too much, Xiaohua still needs to work hard in the future, he still has a lot of shortcomings. "

"It's okay, he's still young, he has plenty of time to take his time, the key is Xiaohua, as long as he doesn't forget his heart." She has seen too many people in the officialdom who have lost their minds because of power, wealth, and if In the future, Xiaohua will also walk on this path, she thinks she will feel very disappointed and regretful.

Mu Ankang and Xiao Nianxun didn't quite understand what the old concubine said, but Mrs. Xiao and Mr. Xiao did, but this kind of thing is really uncertain. After all, it still depends on whether a person can stand the many temptations in this world. Now it seems that Xiaohua is still okay, but in the future...but the children and grandchildren have their own blessings, they can't control so much.

"Hey, Xiaohua's marriage is hopeful, but the two sons of Xiao's mansion still haven't talked about it. Speaking of which, Ayu is not too young, and it's time to talk about it. Would you like me to help you find it?" ?” the old princess asked with a smile.

Mrs. Xiao couldn't help showing a wry smile when she heard the words, and said: "Old princess, for the marriage of their two brothers, I, a mother, can be regarded as heartbroken, but these two children are disobedient and have their own ways. Advocate, every time you talk about marriage, you have to find countless excuses to shirk it. I think they don't plan to talk about marriage in a short time like that. They don't want to, and I, a mother, have nothing to do. !"

Old Mrs. Xiao also snorted softly and said: "That's right, these two brats, every time they talk about getting them married, it's like killing them."

Fortunately, he found his daughter back later, and had a granddaughter and grandson. These two are not like the two grandsons. Xiaoxi got married early and gave birth to a child, and Xiaohua is also planning to get married. I'm looking forward to it, otherwise those two unfilial things will probably be reluctant to get married after he lies in the coffin!

"Hahaha, the two brothers are so good, they are not afraid of not being able to find a wife. Since they are not willing now, let's find out slowly. Maybe after two or three years, the good lady in the capital will reach Jiji's age again. Just let the two brothers choose."

"At that time, it's not them who pick others, but someone else picks them, and they're all old men!" Old Mrs. Xiao said with a snort.

Master Xiao rubbed his nose and remained silent, lest his father would take his anger out on him when he spoke up, saying that he is useless as a father, that he can't even discipline his own son well, and why he is a prime minister, so he simply resigned Forget it.And he thinks there's nothing wrong with the two sons marrying later. They don't have a girl they can't see. They are not satisfied if they choose for them as elders. Wouldn't they become enemies if they forced their marriage?
So he thinks it's better to take it slowly, and he also hopes that the two sons will marry wives who are like-minded in the future, like Xiaoxi and Xiaohua, instead of getting married because of the orders of their parents and the words of the matchmaker. Faint.Father and mother, he and his wife were in love with each other before they got married, so they will be loving and loving after marriage. As their father, he naturally hopes that his two sons will have a happy and beautiful life. The second half of life is over, so their marriage depends on what they want!
The old concubine laughed and said: "Don't worry, even in a few years, they will still choose others based on their appearance and family background. Old man Xiao, don't worry about them. You should take good care of your body and wait to hold your great-grandson." Bar!"

"That's right, I'm just waiting to see when I can hold my great-grandson."

This night, whether they are old or young, they all had a very happy Mid-Autumn Festival. Until late at night, some stayed in Prince Mu's Mansion, and some returned home in the carriage of their own mansion. In this way, Prince Mu's Mansion also sent guards to escort them. In addition to the Mid-Autumn Festival, the capital is very lively, and the streets are still crowded with people at night, because there is no curfew on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, so everyone enjoys themselves. played.

After the Mid-Autumn Festival, the people in the Xiao Mansion made preparations and invited the most famous matchmaker in the capital. Eight out of ten matchmakers made by this matchmaker were happy and happy, and two couples were occasionally noisy. Bi, he is almost like Yuelao. He is very popular in the capital, and he usually acts as a matchmaker for dignitaries.

And this matchmaker also has a habit, that is, if she is asked to be a matchmaker, she will first see both the man and woman before deciding whether to be a matchmaker, because she said that in this way she can know whether the couple will be happy together.If she feels that the man and the woman are not compatible, then she will not agree to be a matchmaker anyway, lest it will hurt the marriage of both parties, and also hurt her own reputation.

But after seeing Mu Jinhua and Mo Xuerui, she nodded repeatedly and said that this is a match made in heaven. If the two get married, they will have a happy life in the future. The people in Xiao's mansion can't help laughing. Mo's mansion heard that Xiao's mansion The person invited this matchmaker to come to talk about the matchmaking, and he was very satisfied. Mo Guogong, who had some opinions, was read to his ears by his wife and his wife, especially his wife, who said that he deliberately wanted to delay him. What is the meaning of still hesitating about such a good marriage for a daughter? Do you really want to let that concubine fail?

Mrs. Mo’s words made Duke Mo feel helpless. It’s been so long since that incident, and his mother still refused to let him go, and would scold him from time to time. There is no one who made him like this. who!The mother is forcing him, the wife is also forcing him, and the daughter is also forcing him, what else can he do, he can only agree to the marriage!
Therefore, as soon as the matchmaker came to the door, she said it was a marriage without any hindrance, and exchanged Geng Tie... Everything was based on the number of three matchmakers and six betrothal gifts. The news spread, some were surprised, some were unexpected, but none of this could change the fact that the two governments were married.

Even the emperor heard about this, and specially called Duke Mo and Xiao Jingyan into the palace, and asked them about it.

"You two lovers, I heard that your two houses have decided to get married. Mr. Mo, are you going to marry your daughter to Xiao Aiqing's nephew, my number one scholar?" The emperor sat on the dragon chair and asked with great interest. .

"Returning to the emperor, it is indeed the case. Our two governments have already exchanged Geng Tie." Mo Guogong replied respectfully.

"Here, isn't this girl Xue Rui—" The emperor originally wanted to say that this girl Xue Rui has been clamoring to marry Jue Lin?But when the words came to his mouth, he thought that Jue Lin and Xiao Xi had been married for so long, and they had a second child. If he said that, if this word reached Jue Lin's ears, he would definitely be angry again. He put on a face in front of himself, saying that he wanted to provoke the relationship between their husband and wife.So the emperor quickly swallowed the words back.

"Cough cough, what I mean is how did the two of them get together? Could it be that you mean to be elders? That won't work, Xiao Aiqing. Although Zhuangyuan Lang is your nephew, you still have to listen to him in matters of marriage. Parents, you have to listen to their own ideas, and you can't force it."

Xiao Jingyan twitched the corner of his mouth slightly and said: "Your Majesty, it's not that we are reluctant as elders, but that they love each other when they get along. Xuerui and Xiaoxi are good friends, and they also come into contact with Xiaohua when they are in contact. But, that's why..."

They are not the ones who would force their own children to get married, in fact, the other way around, okay?It was those two children who forced them to be the marriage promised by their elders!
"Oh? So there is such a thing, I thought you were persecuting it." There seemed to be some pity in the emperor's words, which made Xiao Jingyan and Mo Guogong very speechless.

"Your Majesty, they are in love with each other." Mo Guogong emphasized.

The emperor nodded his head: "That's it, it's a good match of the same family, these two children are a match made in heaven, and I will reward them well at that time!" The emperor said very generously.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

While talking, the emperor suddenly thought of something that seemed very important. He looked at Xiao Jingyan and asked, "Xiao Aiqing, since the number one scholar is going to get married, where is he going to get married?"

Xiao Jingyan was startled, a little confused about what the emperor meant.Where are you going to get married?Of course it is in the capital, in the Xiao Mansion, otherwise where else?
Mo Guogong was also very surprised by the emperor's words, but he was not the one who was asked by the emperor, and he could not interrupt casually. He could only mutter in his heart what the emperor meant by such a question?
The emperor frowned: "Xiao Aiqing, in the past, the number one scholar was going to take the imperial examination, he didn't have any achievements, and he was your nephew. You and Mrs. Mu have been separated for many years, so it is reasonable for their family to live in your Xiao residence, it is human nature But now that Mu Jinhua is the champion of high school, has an official position, and is about to get married, is it wrong to continue living in the Xiao Mansion? After all, his surname is Mu, and your surname is Xiao! Should he move out to another place in the Li Mansion? pass?"

Xiao Jingyan's eyes widened, he never expected that the emperor would suddenly mention this matter, and he had never thought about this issue before!

Although Xiaohua's surname is not Xiao, she is also his relative, the only son of his younger sister. Their roots are in Xiushui Village, Taohua Town. When they arrived in the capital, they didn't know each other well. The younger sister was from the Xiao family, so they naturally wanted to live in For the Xiao family, it doesn't matter even if they stay in the Xiao family forever, the Xiao mansion is very big, he and his father never thought that his sister's family would move out of the Xiao mansion!
So the emperor's sudden question made Xiao Jingyan stop.

It was also at this time that Duke Mo thought of this question. Before that, Mu Jinhua and his parents had always lived in the Xiao Mansion, and everyone had forgotten that his surname was Mu, not Xiao. People with two surnames How can they live together all the time?What's more, Mu Jinhua has an official position now, so she shouldn't continue to live in Xiao's mansion, it will be misleading.

He didn't notice this before, their family lived in Xiao's mansion for too long, which made everyone forget some things, and they actually regarded their Mu family as members of Xiao's family.If Mu Ankang was a married man, it would be fine for them to live in Xiao's mansion, but now it is obviously not the case, Mu Ankang is not a married man, and Mu Jinhua's surname is Mu, not Xiao!Wouldn't it be a mess if they continued to live in the Xiao Mansion?If my daughter marries in, does she marry into the Mu family or the Xiao family?

The more I think about Mo Guogong, the more important this issue is. Mu Jinhua should move out of Xiao's mansion and set up his own mansion as the emperor said. He will continue to climb up in the future. Could it be that he will become a big It's still impossible for the official to live in Xiao's mansion, so what's the matter?

"Xiao Aiqing, what's wrong with you? Why didn't you answer me?"

"Your Majesty, regarding this issue, I feel that there is no need to think about it at all. Although Xiaohua is not surnamed Xiao, in my heart, he is no different from my own son. Even if he lives in Xiao's residence all his life, I will not dislike him. And Chen's father is old, if Chen's younger sister's family is allowed to move out at this time, I am worried that Chen's father will not be able to bear it."

"Your Majesty, you also know that Chen's sister was separated from her family when she was very young, and she finally returned to the Xiao family until the year before last. Chen's father has lost decades of time with his sister, and now his only wish is I just hope to spend the rest of my life with my family. If my younger sister and her family move out and set up a new residence at this time, Chen's father will definitely be very sad. Is there going to be a delay?"

After Xiao Jingyan came back to his senses, he quickly thought of his speech, and said in a calm manner.

The emperor frowned. What Xiao Jingyan said made sense. Mr. Xiao had been thinking about his lost daughter all his life. If he hadn't found it the year before last, Mr. Xiao's body might have collapsed. How could it be like this now... Mr. Xiao probably did too If she didn't want her daughter's family to move out, wouldn't Xiao Xi worry to death if something happened?If Xiaoxi is worried, Juelin will also be worried. If Mrs. Xiao is not well, will Xiaoxi blame him?Then wouldn't the relationship between him and Juelin, which had finally been harmonious, be about to hit rock bottom again?

The emperor quickly calculated it in his heart, and soon decided that if he insisted on asking Mu Jinhua to move out of Xiao's mansion, it would definitely do him no harm, so...

"Xiao Aiqing's words are also reasonable. It's because I didn't think carefully. Mr. Xiao is getting old, and it is the time when he longs for his relatives to be by his side. If Mu Aiqing moves out at this time, it will be a blow to Mrs. Xiao." The emperor He said very seriously.

Duke Mo was dumbfounded. Why did the emperor suddenly change his tone? Didn't he just insist that Mu Jinhua should move out of Xiao's mansion?How did it change all of a sudden?It really is the king's mind is unpredictable!It was only on his side that he figured it out, figured it out, and before he even said anything, the emperor changed his tune and echoed Xiao Jingyan's words...

But for the sake of his daughter's future happiness, he felt that he still needed to persuade her.

"Your Majesty, Prime Minister Xiao's words are wrong. Mu Zhuangyuan has already been in high school and has held official positions in the court. If he has been living in the Xiao Mansion, how will the ministers in the court treat him? When the Mu family first came to the capital With no one to rely on, and no ability to buy their own mansion, there is only one place to go in the Xiao Mansion, and it is natural to live in the Xiao Mansion. But now that the Mu family has the ability to buy their own mansion, then it is not It would be misleading to live in the Xiao Mansion again."

Mo Guogong paused and said: "Furthermore, if the Mu family continues to live in Xiao's mansion for a long time, everyone will think that Mu Zhuangyuan's father is married to the Xiao family, instead of marrying a young lady of the Xiao family. This is not good for the reputation of the Xiao family or the Mu family, is it?"

Xiao Jingyan frowned, but he didn't think of this.

The younger sister and the younger sister-in-law have been living in the Xiao Mansion, neither their husband and wife, nor their father, nor the servants in the mansion, have treated them as outsiders. They are a family, and he always thought that his sister and the others thought the same way, but Now that Mo Guogong said this, he really became a little worried.

Could it be that the younger sister and the younger sister-in-law have been living in Xiao's mansion, and they also think so in their hearts, especially the younger sister-in-law, would he think that this is entering into the Xiao family?The sister-in-law is honest, but he is also a big man. If he is a man, he would not want to marry him, which would damage the dignity of a man.

It seems that he was negligent, the younger sister's family has been in the capital for so long, he just thinks that they live a good life in the Xiao Mansion according to his own thoughts, and they have no worries about food and clothing, but he never thought that they might not be happy to live in the Xiao Mansion all the time , they may feel that they are always dependent on others...

Thinking of this, Xiao Jingyan's heart suddenly felt a little heavy. If they really thought so, then he couldn't force them to stay in Xiao's residence. He owed his sister so much, and there was no reason for her to suffer after finding her. Wronged, if they want to move out, then he has to find a way to convince dad.

"Mo Aiqing, are you thinking too much? This Mu Jinhua's surname is Mu, how can people think that the Mu family is a married man? If the family is married, the surname should be Xiao, so no one would think so. And That's because Mrs. Mu was separated from her family since she was a child, and she finally found her back, of course to make up for the lost family relationship and reunite with her family."

"My lord, but—"

"Okay, don't talk about this, anyway, this is Xiao Aiqing's family matter, let Xiao Aiqing handle it by herself, if Mu Aiqing wants to move out of Xiao's residence in the future, I will give him a mansion! "The emperor said with a big wave of his hand.

"I will first thank the emperor for Xiaohua's kindness."

The emperor said so, so Duke Mo had no choice but to follow the emperor's words and change the topic to other matters.

Xiao Jingyan came out of the palace and returned to the mansion, looking very preoccupied, he didn't call his younger sister's family to the study until after dinner.

"Uncle, why did you call us all here? Do you want to discuss my marriage?" Mu Jinhua saw her parents were there, and subconsciously thought of her marriage.

Mu Ankang and Xiao Nianxun also thought so.

But Xiao Jingyan shook his head, looked at his sister and brother-in-law sitting across from him, and then at his nephew, and then said in a deep voice: "The emperor told me something today, the emperor said that Xiao Hua, you are the same now. Now that you are an official in the court, you can have your own mansion, but now you have been living in Xiao Mansion, should you move out and set up another mansion?"

As soon as Xiao Jingyan finished speaking, Mu Jinhua and Xiao Nianxun's complexion changed, and they looked at each other, Mu Jinhua asked: "Uncle, Your Majesty, does Your Majesty suspect us? That's why he wanted me to move out and set up a new relationship." Mansion?"

Mu Jinhua immediately thought that it was the emperor who started to suspect them, because his uncle was the prime minister, and he had won the number one prize. If he had a close relationship with his uncle, it was normal for the emperor to be suspicious. Every monarch is like this, and the current emperor naturally does not. There will be exceptions.Compared with the previous emperors, the emperor can be said to be much wiser, but it does not mean that he does not have the shortcomings of the emperor, such as suspicion, jealousy, and fear of collusion between court officials.

Xiao Jingyan shook his head and said: "No, the emperor just thinks that you are now an official of the imperial court. If you continue to live in the Xiao Mansion, it may make people suspicious. In addition, you are going to get married again. The emperor said that if you want to move out If you build a mansion, the emperor will give you a mansion..."

"Here, brother, okay, we, why did we move out? We live well in the Xiao Mansion. Isn't it good for us to live together?" Xiao Nianxun didn't understand court affairs, nor did he There are so many crooked thoughts, but they simply think that there is no need for them to move out.

Mu Jinhua lowered her head and asked in a low voice, "Uncle, you, do you want us to move out?"

Xiao Jingyan stared: "Why does uncle want you to move out? He called you over just because he didn't want to. Although uncle hopes that you will always live in Xiao's mansion, what the emperor said is also reasonable. You are the number one scholar in high school and now you are in the court. If you have your own mansion, it will be helpful to your future career. With your own mansion, officials who want to associate with you will have a place to go instead of coming to Xiao Mansion. Outsiders will only think that they are here to find uncle. After you get married in the future, Xuerui will also be able to help you manage your relationship with various governments..."

After finishing speaking, he sighed softly, and looked at his sister-in-law who was still in a daze, "Ankang, tell me honestly, do you feel uncomfortable living here?"

Mu Ankang looked baffled, touched the back of his head and asked in puzzlement: "Brother, why do you ask like this? I also want to ask if you would dislike me for living in the Xiao Mansion. I have never What's the use, and I don't know what's the big deal. If you were not lucky enough to marry a wife like Nian Xun, how could you come to the capital and live in the prime minister's mansion, and people outside would make fun of you for having a sister-in-law like me... Xiao Manor, whether it's Dad or you, you are very kind to us, and we live in a very good place, we don't feel uncomfortable!"

Seeing him like this, Xiao Jingyan had a headache and was speechless. It seemed that he didn't understand that this sister-in-law would not understand the meaning of his words.

"I mean you've been living in the Xiao Mansion, do you feel like you've become a married woman?"

"Huh? Marriage? Well, Nian Xun and I have been married for so long, can I still become a married man?" Mu Ankang was even more puzzled.

Xiao Nianxun also asked a little puzzled: "Brother, why do you think so?"

"Can I not think so? I have never asked you what you mean. Although you are the daughter of the Xiao family, you married Ankang early, and you are the daughter-in-law of the Mu family, but you have been living in your mother's family. Only people will always live in the woman's house. I just miss you and we have been separated for so many years, and I want to make up for you, but I don't consider your feelings. That's why I asked you today."

Xiao Jingyan paused a little uncomfortable before saying: "If you think so and want to move out, I, I will persuade daddy. You have been wronged for so many years, big brother doesn't want you to continue to be wronged for us, daddy will understandable."

Mu Ankang hurriedly waved his hands and shook his head and said: "Brother, you think too much, we don't feel wronged, we think it's good, it's good for a family to live together, as for getting married, it doesn't matter even if it's real. Anyway, my family is gone anyway, and my current family is only you, it doesn’t really matter whether we get married or not, what matters is where we are and who we are with.”

When Mu Ankang said such words, Xiao Jingyan was very surprised.

This sister-in-law has always been dull and honest, even worse than Xiao Hua. He always thought that he might feel inferior, that he would feel ashamed and uncomfortable because he has been living in the Xiao Mansion, let alone getting married, as long as any man with a bit of backbone No one will choose to marry into a family, and only a man will choose to marry into a family when he has to.Xiaohua is Ankang's son, and now he is outstanding, Ankang can fully hold his chest up, even if they set up another mansion, there are many people who will please them, it is better than living in Xiao's mansion and relying on others.

Unexpectedly, he would say what he said just now, which made him a little surprised.

Xiao Nianxun didn't feel that what her husband said was wrong. In fact, they discussed it very early, because Xiaoxi had asked them before she got married, and had told them carefully. At that time, Xiaoxi Xi said that if they felt uncomfortable living in Xiao's Mansion, felt that they would be looked down upon and wanted to move out, then she would buy a house and hang a plaque on the door of the Mu Mansion, making it their home.

But Xiaoxi also said that if they move out, father will be very sad and sad, so they need to think clearly.At first they were indeed worried, worried that if they stayed in Xiao's house all the time, people would gossip and be ridiculed, and even the husband would be said to have married into the Xiao family.But after listening to Xiaoxi's words, they thought about it and felt that there was nothing wrong with living in the Xiao Mansion, so they felt that unless the elder brother wanted them to move out, there was no need for them to think about it.

She is the daughter of the Xiao family, and there is nothing wrong with living in Xiao's mansion, because I have been separated from my father and elder brother for decades, even if she has been living in Xiao's mansion after returning, it is reasonable, people who understand Naturally, they won't say much, and they won't misunderstand. People who misunderstand must not be decent people. They don't bother to associate with such people, so what does it matter what they say?

She has never been by her father's side since she was a child, and she has never performed filial piety, and her father is so old. To put it bluntly, she doesn't know how many years she can live. Do you do your best to be filial?If she wants to move out, father will definitely agree, but father will also be sad. Once father is sad, it may affect his body.

The eldest brother said that Dad's health was not very good before, and he was always depressed because of her. It was because she came back and his mood was relaxed, so he got better, so she couldn't do anything anyway. It made dad sad.

She discussed it with her husband, and she will live in Xiao's mansion from now on. If Xiaohua wants to move out, she can buy another house. After Xiaohua gets married, she will live with his wife. I believe he has a wife There will be nothing wrong with taking care of her. She and her husband will take care of her father in Xiao's residence, and just go to visit Xiao Hua occasionally.The child has grown up and can take care of herself. She should take care of her elderly father more.

"Brother, Ankang and I didn't feel uncomfortable living in the Xiao Mansion, and we didn't think about moving out. We have to take care of Dad here. But Xiao Hua, if Xiao Hua wants to move out and set up another mansion If not, then just buy another house, and we will visit occasionally in the future." Xiao Nianxun said.

But what she said made Mu Jinhua dumbfounded.

"Mother, do you mean that you don't want my son?"

"How can I not have your son, you are the only son of me and your father!"

"Then why did you drive me out of Xiao's residence?" Mu Jinhua looked very sad and wronged.

"You child, who wants to drive you away? Mother just said that if you want, just like what your uncle said just now, you are about to get married. It is good to move out and live another life. The two husband and wife can live their own lives." It's time." Xiao Nianxun also considered the mood and feelings of his future daughter-in-law, although he was reluctant, but as long as the mansion he chose was not too far from the Xiao Mansion, it didn't matter.

"Father, mother, uncle, I'll tell you the truth, I don't want to move out, unless uncle drives me away, maybe it's father and mother who want to leave the Xiao residence." Mu Jinhua said seriously.

Mu Ankang shook his head violently and said: "Mother and I have already discussed that if we don't move out, we will stay here with your grandfather."

Xiao Jingyan was very moved when he heard what they said, and he was also relieved. He thought that they would move out soon after talking about it tonight, and he felt sad. He didn't expect that what they thought was not what he thought at all. like that.

Hey, although Nian Xun didn't marry into a wealthy family, Sheng Zai Ankang treats her wholeheartedly, and he doesn't want her to suffer a little grievance. Now, he is willing to live in Xiao Mansion all the time in order to be filial to his father with her. It is really rare, this may be the best gift Nian Xun got after being separated from his family.

"Okay, okay, since you said that, then I accept it like this, and I am not allowed to talk about it in the future! I was still very worried after hearing those words from the emperor, but now I am finally relieved, and you live here. It's been almost two years, and I'm used to it, if you move out, the Xiao Mansion will probably be as quiet as before, and it's much more lively when you're here, well, it's good to be lively, I like to be lively." Xiao Jingyan said with a sigh.

Mu Ankang said with a smile, "Brother, I'm afraid that you will despise me for being stupid in the future."

Xiao Jingyan deliberately said with a straight face: "Aren't you just stupid? But fortunately you married my sister, Xiao Jingyan. My sister is so smart. If you are stupid, you will be stupid. Anyway, with us around, no one can bully you. And sometimes being stupid is also a kind of blessing! Not only your blessing, but also your family's blessing, so, I won't despise you for being stupid in the future!"

"Then I don't worry, big brother. To be honest, I was quite afraid of you at the beginning. I always felt that you were always staring at me when you looked at me. I was so scared that I didn't dare to talk to you." It's rare for Xiao Jingyan to talk so much, and it's also rare for Xiao Jingyan to say so many emotional words, Mu Ankang's mind relaxes, and he speaks out what is in his heart.

"...Am I so scary?" Xiao Jingyan twitched the corner of his mouth.

Mu Ankang touched his head and said in a low voice: "You are not scary, you are quite handsome, but your expression and momentum are indeed quite scary. At the beginning, Nian Xun was also afraid of you—ah, lady, you What are you pinching me for?"

Xiao Nianxun glared at him, and felt a little guilty when he saw his elder brother's stricken expression. He felt that his husband's words must have hurt his elder brother. My elder brother has always been very kind to me, but in the end I was afraid of him...

Cough cough cough, in fact, it was only when I first came back, because I was not familiar with it, and the elder brother was also the prime minister, with a high position and authority, and she carried some intimidating aura. At that time, she was just an ordinary farmer. My wife, who has never seen much of the world, will naturally be scared when she sees him, even if he is her big brother.After getting familiar with him, I no longer feel scared. Instead, I feel that my eldest brother is a very good elder brother.

"Well... Brother, don't listen to Ankang's nonsense. In fact, he is timid and afraid of you. I don't have it, really!" Xiao Nianxun comforted him with sincerity, but the dodging guilty eyes betrayed her.

Xiao Jingyan felt that he had been deeply hurt. He had always been gentle and considerate to his younger sister. He never said a word loudly. He never thought that his younger sister would be afraid of him...

Who knew that at this time Mu Jinhua would make amends: "Uncle, speaking of which, I was quite afraid of you at that time."

"Xiao Hua, even you are afraid of me?" Xiao Jingyan began to wonder if he was really that scary. He was a famous handsome man when he was young, and now he is also a very attractive uncle. There are still many people who want to His own daughter was given to him as a concubine!

Mu Jinhua comforted: "Uncle, who called you the prime minister? At that time, we were just ordinary people, and suddenly we lived with the prime minister who was under Da Chu alone and above ten thousand, even if we knew in our hearts that you were our prime minister. My relatives, we can't get used to it for a while! Isn't it normal to be afraid of you? If you let any ordinary people face you, they will be a little afraid of you in their hearts. They are afraid of your identity and status, not you .”

Xiao Jingyan felt that he hadn't been comforted and said, "But Xiaoxi wasn't."

He remembered that Xiaoxi called him uncle affectionately when he first arrived.

"Uh, this, Xiaoxi is different from ordinary people, she is different."

"Brother, you don't have to be sad, we are not afraid of you now, you are just like the big brother in ordinary people's family in our hearts." Xiao Nianxun also comforted.

Mu Ankang nodded vigorously: "Yes, because we know that brother, you just look scary, but you care about us very much in your heart."

Xiao Jingyan looked at the family speechlessly, and felt that his mood was a bit too ups and downs today, and he needed to take a good rest to regain his senses, so he waved his hands to the family weakly, and said: "Forget it, you go back Rest, don't tell Dad about today, lest he worry."

Several people looked at each other, laughed twice before exiting the study.

After a few people left, Xiao Jingyan took out a mirror from nowhere and compared it left and right.

He feels that he has always been like this, why is it different because he is the prime minister? When he comes home, he always pays attention not to bring back his emotions in the court. At home, he is just an ordinary People who are familiar with it, what is it that scares people?

　Well, Mu Jinhua and Mo Xuerui's marriage has finally been settled
