The First Young Master of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 128
"Xuan Shijing." Standing outside the door, Xuan Shijing uttered three words. Standing in front of the Hou's mansion, he was at a loss. Did he not go home for more than ten years? Feelings, familiarity, strangeness, or emotional timidity.

When the people inside the door heard the three words "Xuan Shijing", they suddenly had a clever idea, isn't this the name of their own young master?My little master is in West Kunlun.

At the thought of someone pretending to be his little lord, Lao Liu's heart burst into anger.

"What are you talking about? My Lord Hou is in West Kunlun right now, and you pretended to be Young Lord and came to the Hou Mansion."

Standing beside the carriage, Gao Jun and Long'er glanced at each other, and they both noticed the serious and helpless smile of the other party. Gao Jun stepped forward, walked to Xuan Shijing's side, and said to the people inside the door: "Uncle Liu, Lord Hou If you don't remember his voice when you grow up, you won't even forget me, right?"

Uncle Liu who was behind the gate was stunned when he heard the voice, and then said, "Boy Gao Jun?"

"Yes, Gao Jun boy." Long'er came forward with a smile, and said to the door: "Uncle Liu, we are really back, please open the door quickly, we must not be allowed to enter through the side door."

"Young Lord, it's really Young Lord!" Uncle Liu sounded a little excited, and shouted towards the mansion: "Young Lord is back! Young Lord is back!"

Xuan Shijing has black lines all over his head, don't just shout, open the door instead.

Zhong Zishuo was wiping his big knife in the yard, when he heard the commotion outside, he frowned, stood up, walked out with the knife in his hand, and walked out of the yard, Zhong Zishuo looked coldly at the servants outside, and asked loudly : "What is so noisy."

"Butler Zhong, the young master is back. Uncle Liu heard the voices of Gao Jun and Long'er at the door, and one person claimed to be the young master." A servant said.

Zhong Zishuo's heart trembled, the young master is back?Said it was the end of the year, how could it be so fast!

"Go and inform Madam, and, hurry up and greet her at the gate!" Zhong Zishuo ordered.

"Yes." The servant replied and ran towards Wang's yard.

Xuan Shijing stood in front of the mansion in a daze, what do you mean?The door is not open yet?Blocked at your door?What's the reaction?Turning back to look at Gao Jun and Long'er in a daze, serious doubts were clearly visible.

No, it stands to reason that when you come back, you should be welcomed by your family happily, even if you don't welcome, you should open the door anyway.

After standing at the gate of the mansion for a long time, the gate of the Hou Mansion finally opened slowly. The gate that had not been opened for more than ten years made a creaking sound when the door shaft was turning. It was a test for the eardrums. Xuan Shijing raised his head Looking into the mansion, I was taken aback by the sight in front of me. The maids and servants in the mansion stood in a row on the left and women on the right, bowing their bodies. When the door of the mansion was fully opened, they all said in unison: "Welcome Lord Marquis back!" government."

Hey, Xuan Shijing was stunned by such a big battle, Wang Shi was leading Zhong Zishuo through the crowd, walking towards Xuan Shijing.

I saw Mrs. Wang wearing a brown brocade robe, her long hair was combed into a very ordinary woman's bun, and was pulled up by a jasper hairpin. Between the temples, there was faintly visible Chinese hair.
Obviously ten years ago, my mother still had blue hair. Obviously my own mother is only 34 or [-] years old now.
The moment he saw Wang Shi, Xuan Shijing's nose was a little sour, and his eyes were hot, as if something was going to come out of his eyes and roll down.

Wang walked up to Xuan Shijing, gently stroked Xuan Shijing's cheek with trembling hands, trembling lips, speechless.

"Mother, the baby is back." As soon as he spoke, his voice trembled unknowingly, and there was a strong yearning in his words.

"Jing'er, my son." Wang's tears were like broken beads, one by one, pouring out of her eyes.

Xuan Shijing sniffed, and spoke again, already with a strong nasal voice: "Mother."

More than ten years ago, Xuan Shijing was still a child when he left the Hou's Mansion, but now he came back and became a young man, standing there, slightly taller than Wang's.

Wang stepped forward and hugged Xuan Shijing: "My son is finally back." In a blink of an eye, she was sobbing. It's hard to imagine how Wang survived these years, losing her husband and son, as if She was the only one left in the world, quietly, with the ancestral hall of the Hou Mansion.

Standing behind Mrs. Wang, Zhong Zishuo watched the two reunite after a long absence, feeling a lot of emotion in his heart, but seeing more and more people stop outside the gate of the Hou Mansion, he frowned slightly and said, "Master Hou, madam, let's go in." Let's talk about it again."

Wang Shi let go of Xuan Shijing, took out the handkerchief in his sleeve and wiped the tears on his face, and said to Xuan Shijing: "Yes, Jinger, let's go back to the house." hands, and walked into the mansion together.

Zhong Zishuo stayed where he was and looked at Shihu outside the door, and said, "Shihu, go and drive the carriage to the backyard of the Hou Mansion."

Shi Hu nodded, he has been to the Hou Mansion before, so he is still familiar with it.

Looking back at Gao Jun and Long'er, he said with emotion, "You have grown up too."

Zhong Zishuo looked at the tall and mature Long'er, yes, in a blink of an eye, it has been more than ten years, how the Hou Mansion came here in these ten years, I vaguely don't remember.

"Uncle Zhong." Seeing Zhong Zishuo, Long'er's eyes were also red, and then the eyes were dim with tears.

Zhong Zishuo can be regarded as half father to Long'er and Gao Jun, Gao Jun is better, he has an older brother, and Long'er, before entering Erxian Village, was really lonely and helpless, Zhong Zishuo treated her differently, perhaps because Compared with other children, she is smarter, more innocent and cute, so Zhong Zishuo always treats her like his own daughter.

And Long'er's name was also given by him, Zhong Linglong
Xuan Shijing's return to the mansion was nothing more than a great joy for the Hou's mansion. That night, Mrs. Wang ordered to go down and have a big banquet for the master and servants to enjoy together.

The servants of the Hou Mansion seem to have gotten used to this pattern, because every year on the first night of the Chinese New Year, Madam would order the people in the mansion to go out and buy some things, and let the kitchen clean up and make delicious food. Sitting at the same table in the big room, reminiscing about this year, only this day, the Hou Mansion will be a little angry, and this room is the meeting room that Xuan Shijing used to hold the night banquet on New Year's Eve.
This is also Wang's longing for his son. Sitting here every New Year's Eve, he can always think of the way his Jing'er was dozing aside that night, with a smile on his face unconsciously. It was a warm picture, but when he recovered, there was nothing around him.

The New Year's Eve atmosphere is intense every year, but Wang's thoughts are always stuck on the night of the first night banquet, because that night is the real reunion for the Hou Mansion.

As soon as Xuan Shijing returned to the mansion, the news spread that he had returned to Chang'an.
