Childhood Sweethearts of a Family: The Delicate Girl

Chapter 2

Taiyuan is not very far from the capital, so don't hurry, you can get there in three or four days.

It was morning when Lin Hai, his wife and children arrived in the capital.Except Mrs. Lin's natal family, the Lin family has no other relatives in the capital, so on this day, the Wang family, who got the news early, sent a group of people outside the city to greet them.

Mrs. Lin's family background is actually quite good.She is the second daughter of Marquis Yingwu, and the title of Marquis Yingwu was earned by her father who risked his life on the battlefield.Therefore, Marquis Yingwu has a certain prestige in the court.Mrs. Lin Wang, who was born in this way, naturally has a noble status.

The current Mrs. Hou of Yingwuhou's Mansion, that is Mrs. Lin's mother, Mrs. Wang, is old after all, and her body is not so agile. How could her children and grandchildren be willing to run so far away to wait for her.

I haven't seen my daughter for nine years, I will miss her, and I can't leave, so Mrs. Hou assigned her youngest son to pick up her second sister and second brother-in-law, and let her four grandchildren pick up their cousin Cousin, and cousin who met for the first time.

Therefore, when Lin Hai and his carriage arrived outside the city gate, the coachman saw a middle-aged man and four teenagers waiting there on tall horses.The middle-aged man on horseback has a firm face and profound features; the four teenagers all have sword eyebrows and star eyes, and their aura is imposing.Behind them, a group of servants followed, and from a distance, it looked huge.

The coachman stopped the carriage, stepped forward to inquire, and confirmed that he was here to pick up his master, wife, and young master, and hurriedly returned to report.All of a sudden, the five people on horseback got off their horses; Lin Hai's family in the carriage got off the carriage one after another.

Mrs. Lin has five siblings. She has an older brother and an older sister, and a younger brother and younger sister.She is sandwiched in the middle of the top, ranking third.Because of the unbiased love and favor from both father and mother, the relationship between the five siblings is naturally very harmonious.

She hadn't seen her younger brother for many years, and seeing her younger brother who was not married for a long time was already so old, Madam Lin felt sad and burst into tears.Lin Hai and others hurriedly tried to persuade her, but Mrs. Lin was crying hard at this moment, and everyone couldn't persuade her.

Lin Yuan, who was hugged by Mrs. Lin, probably sensed her mother's emotions, and also saw the attitude of her father and brothers, and hurriedly stretched out her little hands to wipe away her mother's tears.She patted Mrs. Wang's cheek lightly again, as if to comfort her, and then leaned closer to exhale and exhale, still mumbled in her mouth, "Mother, it doesn't hurt, it doesn't hurt." Immediately, Madam Lin burst into tears for laughing.

Lin Hai and Lin Yuan's three elder brothers couldn't persuade Wang Shi, because they were at a loss. Who knew that the daughter (sister) would have immediate results when she made a move.Lin Hai and his three sons had fun, and hurriedly persuaded Mrs. Wang, and this time they were completely persuaded.

When Mrs. Lin's younger brother, Wang Qi, saw how cute and intelligent his little niece was, his attention was immediately attracted by Lin Yuan.He poked his head to look at Lin Yuan in his second sister's arms, but saw Lin Yuan looking at him with big black and clear eyes without the slightest fear, and suddenly thought of teasing, "My niece, call me uncle, uncle later." I'll give you candy."

Lin Yuan, who turned two years old, already speaks quite clearly.She glanced at her mother, then at the middle-aged man in front of her, narrowed her eyes with a smile, and called out in a childlike voice, "Uncle." The little girl's voice was waxy and sweet, matching her white powder Tender skin, curved eyebrows and sweet dimples make people feel comfortable listening.

Wang Qi squinted his eyes comfortably, and responded again and again.Although he has nieces and other nieces, they are really different, but if you want to say what is different, Wang Qi can't say much.

When Lin Yuan's four cousins ​​saw that their little cousin was not only so cute and lovable, but also had such a nice voice, it was very touching to call "Uncle" and immediately felt itchy.Cousin, meeting for the first time, come here, give me a face, and call out to my cousin!Together with Wang Qi, the four surrounded Mrs. Lin and Lin Yuan.

They heard Lin Yuan's sweet and glutinous "cousin" very smoothly. Each of them had to say four sentences for one sentence, and then they had to call "uncle" after four sentences. After calling "uncle", the four cousins Brother is coming again.

Seeing this, the three brothers Lin Xuan, Lin Ye, and Lin Yi wished they could immediately roll up their sleeves and go up for a fight!She is only two years old, you guys are so willing!Shouting one sentence is not enough, shouting two sentences and then shouting three sentences or four sentences, and there is a loop after shouting?Such a way to bully their sister, resolutely don't do it!
Not to mention Lin Xuan and others, even Lin Hai refused to do it.Sister Yuan is only two years old, are you making trouble like this?Can a father bear it?Lin Hai was angry and distressed, but he kept his demeanor, and said to Wang Qi and others politely, "It's getting late, brother, let's go to the city first?"

After Lin Hai's "reminder", Wang Qi finally realized that they stayed here for too long, and the old lady in the mansion was anxiously waiting for them to go back.He glanced sharply at his two nephews and two sons, and reprimanded, "Your cousin is only a little older, why don't you know how to cherish her?"

Lin Yuan's four cousins ​​were silent, and Lin Yuan's three older brothers were also silent. Even Lin Hai couldn't stand it any longer.Wasn't it you who teased my cousin (sister, sister Yuan) the most fiercely just now?Everyone thought to themselves in unison.

After the reprimand, Wang Qi said to his second sister and second brother-in-law with a good attitude, "Sister, brother-in-law, this is not a good place to reminisce about the past. Let's go back to the city and sit down and talk slowly."

When everyone in Lin Hai got into the carriage, Wang Qi glanced sideways at his two nephews and two sons, turned around with a stern face and got on his horse.After turning the horse's head, Wang Qi thought of Lin Yuan's "uncle" sentence after sentence just now, and smiled very inconsistently with his image and temperament.

Everyone sat down firmly, Wang Qi happily rode his horse, and led the crowd into the city and went to the Hou's mansion.

It didn't take much time to go from the outside of the city to Yingwu Houhou's Mansion, and soon, Lin Hai and the others arrived outside the Hou's Mansion.Hou, who was in charge early, was at the gate of the mansion. When he saw the second master, second miss, and second son-in-law coming back, he greeted them immediately.

He met with everyone, and then he said to the three adults, "Second Master, Second Miss, Second Uncle, Mrs. Hou from the Fenyonghou Mansion is here to visit temporarily, and the old lady is meeting guests right now."

"The old lady told me that if the second young lady and the second uncles arrive, they will first go to the side room to freshen up, and then take Miss Biao and the three young masters to Ningxinyuan."

As soon as Mrs. Wang heard this, she understood her mother's thoughts.

She has been away from Beijing for nine years, and she has long been unfamiliar with the noble ladies in the capital.Fenyonghouhou's mansion is an upstart after she left. Calculated, Fenyonghou should be no more than 35 or [-] years old, and his wife is even younger, around [-], a few years younger than himself.

Although she is not in the capital, she has heard a little about the Fenyonghou Mansion.

The main reason is that Fen Yonghou, like his father, gained a firm foothold in the capital by risking his life and making military exploits.The most important thing was that he was very young at that time, so he was talked about, so she could not help but know something.

Another very important reason is that her father and the brave Marquis had a lot of experience of fighting bloody battles together.In addition, his father once saved the life of Hou Fenyong, and his father admired Hou Fenyong very much, so the two became close friends, and the relationship between the two residences was also very good.

In fact, if you want to talk about it again, this brave Mrs. Hou Hou can't be considered a small person.Although she does not have a noble family, the marriage with Marquis Fenyong is a decree from the Empress Dowager.Before she got married, Mrs. Fenyonghou Hou was the most beloved female official by the empress dowager's side. She was actually very old when she got married, but Fenyonghou Leng didn't even have a single concubine.

Zhu Bicong, the brave wife of Hou Hou, must not be underestimated.

Wang's mind turned for a while, then she accepted the housekeeper's words with a smile, and then was led by the servant girl to the side room to freshen up.After tidying up, Mrs. Wang led Lin Yuan, together with her three sons, and ordered the servant girl to lead the way to Ningxinyuan.

In the main hall of Ning Xin Yuan.

Mrs. Wang sat on the top, happily chatting and laughing with Mrs. Zhu, Mrs. Fenyonghouhou below.The timing of Mrs. Zhu's arrival was a bit coincidental, not too early in time for Wang Qi to pick him up.Mrs. Wang thought, it would be better to come early than coincidental, just in time for Mrs. Zhu to meet her second daughter.

The second daughter is back, and she will have to deal with noble ladies in the future. It is always a good thing to have two more acquaintances.The eldest of the second daughter's family is now 17 years old, and it is almost time to plan for marriage.

Zhu's visit to Yingwuhouhou's mansion this time is to personally deliver invitations for her flower viewing banquet and Yingwuhouhou's mansion five days later.Before going out, her three-year-old daughter was clinging to her and refused to let her go. It was not good to leave her son alone in the house, so she finally brought her son and daughter out together.Because I didn't say hello in advance, I didn't know that the second lady of Hou's mansion would return to the mansion before I came.

After coming, the old lady mentioned it to her, and said her purpose vaguely, so she didn't leave immediately and stayed.Human relations, these things are nothing, let alone the other party is the daughter of benefactor?

"Old madam, the second young lady, young lady Biao and the three young masters are here." A pretty maid came in and reported to Mrs. Wang.

Hearing that it was her daughter, grandson, and granddaughter who had come, Mrs. Wang's smile was even wider, and she ordered the servant girl to invite them in.

When she heard footsteps, Zhu stood up, holding her three-year-old daughter and six-year-old son from left to right, turning her head slightly, and saw a woman leading a little girl, followed by three equally handsome and tall , A little boy with a crown like jade.

When Mrs. Wang saw her second daughter and grandchildren, she was almost so excited that she stood up to greet her.Hearing the greetings from several people, they responded in one voice.The little granddaughter was so cute, the old lady hugged her into her arms and introduced Zhu to Wang.

Lin Yuan was held in Madam Wang's arms, she was very peaceful, she didn't make any noise at all, she just rolled her big eyes and looked at the people in the main hall.When Lin Yuan saw Zhu Shi, and saw the young master next to Zhu Shi and the little girl who was about her age, she suddenly clapped her hands and burst into joy, looking very excited.

Mrs. Wang saw her little granddaughter suddenly so happy, she couldn't help but bewildered, and asked softly very curiously, "Sister Yuan, what's the matter? Why are you so happy all of a sudden?"

Lin Yuan seemed to understand Mrs. Wang's words, and she slapped her hands even more joyfully, but her voice was raised in a childish voice, and she couldn't hide her excitement and replied, "It looks good! It looks good!"
