"Miss, the old lady is returning home today, I will dress you up, and I promise that the old lady will like you as soon as she sees you."

Cheng Yuguan sat in front of the vanity mirror, while Chen Xiang combed Cheng Yuguan's hair, he opened the jewelry box on the vanity table and compared them one by one.

"My lady's hair is a little dry, can I use some sweet-scented osmanthus oil for you? This is Duobaozhai's sweet-scented osmanthus oil, which was sent along with this jewelry box by Madam Lai a while ago."

Chen Xiang carefully took out a small bottle of sweet-scented osmanthus oil, it was a pale yellow porcelain bottle, and as soon as the lid was opened, a sweet but not greasy smell came out.

Cheng Yuguan waved his hand.

"Forget it, I'm impatient with these greasy things, you and Huachuan should share this sweet-scented osmanthus oil."

Outside, Hua Chuan, who was clearing the tables and chairs for the eldest lady, looked at each other in surprise.

Chen Xiang was equally astonished, she glanced at the delicate porcelain vase in her hand, and then at the young lady in the glazed mirror.

"How many taels does this bottle cost? In our Zhuangzi, even the Zhuangtou's family can't afford such good things. If you don't want to use it now, the servant will put it away for you, and take it when you want to use it." come out."

Cheng Yuguan shook his head, "I haven't loved this sweet and greasy thing since I was a child, share it with you, don't leave it alone and forget it, it will break after a long time, and it will be a waste of things."

Chen Xiang saw that the lady in the mirror didn't care, so she tried to nod her head, "The servant waits, thanks to you, I will also use this good thing."

Xu Shi received Cheng Yuguan's good things early in the morning, Chen Xiang and Huachuan. They were obviously in a good mood, and the smile on the corner of his mouth never stopped. It didn't even stop.

"Miss, this milk pastry is delicious. You can try it. The mother in the small kitchen only cooks meals from our yard, which is more delicate than the big kitchen in the house. One bite at a time, how many more dishes can you eat? Silver thread rolls are also good, one for two, and the glutinous rice porridge is very fragrant."

Cheng Yuguan never liked to talk, and only nodded occasionally when Huachuan spoke.

Chen Xiang didn't care about Hua Chuan's job, but stood aside, talking about today's major events.

"Mother Lai wrote, saying that the old lady will be able to enter the mansion at the end of the hour at the latest. Master Hou and his wife will definitely wait in Jingyuan hall early. After you eat your meal later, why don't you go to Jingyuan hall and wait. Lord Hou meets the two young masters and young ladies."

Cheng Yuguan's morning exercise was exhausting, and he put down his spoon after two bowls of porridge.At this time, she heard what Chen Xiang said, so she turned her head.

"Two young ladies?"

Chen Xiang nodded solemnly, "Yes, there is also a third young master and a third young lady in the mansion, both of whom were born by Aunt Tong, who live in seclusion on weekdays. The old lady loves the reunion of her children and grandchildren, so every time the old lady comes back, Aunt Tong will bring a Come out to greet me with your two sons and daughters."

This is the first time Cheng Yuguan has heard that he has two younger brothers and sisters, and they are not of the blood of his step-wife Yang.

The memory of the previous life is blurry, Cheng Yuguan only remembers the heroine, mother and daughter, who are the envy of everyone in Kyoto.

It is rare to have lovers in this world, their mother and daughter are obviously from ordinary backgrounds, but they both met someone by chance. Although the stepwife Yang is not the original spouse, she and Cheng Hou are a good couple.Cheng Yulou even got the promise of the five princes to be a couple for a lifetime, so it was passed down by the people of the capital for a while.

Cheng Yuguan thought that there was only the Yang family in the Hou's mansion, but it turned out that there was also Aunt Tong.

"Let's go and meet my younger brothers and sisters whom I have never met."

Cheng Yuguan was wearing an apricot-colored jacket and skirt, and on his head was a silver hairpin made of rice beads, with short rice bead tassels hanging down, making him look very immature and cute.

This kind of Cheng Yuguan is very different from the evil look when she entered the mansion on the first day, so that she just stepped into the main room of Jingyuan Hall, and she has been waiting here for a long time. Bright.

Cheng Hou was originally talking to the mother and daughter of Yang's Cheng Yulou, when he saw Cheng Yuguan coming in, he opened his eyes slightly and praised.

"For Yuguan's age, it's just right to wear such fresh and tender colors. Didn't the mansion hire a master to cut summer clothes a few days ago? Tell them to cut more bright-colored clothes for Yuguan."

Yang froze for a moment, then nodded immediately, "It should be so, I will tell the master of Nishang Pavilion later."

While speaking, Cheng Yuguan stepped forward, first bowed his knees, greeted the two of them, and then asked curiously.

"Is the craftsmanship of this capital needleworker so good? Can you make clothes that fit you without measuring the size?"

Cheng Yuguan asked innocently.

Mrs. Yang couldn't sit still, and got up quickly, "The eldest lady hadn't returned home when Nishang Pavilion came last time. I think you are about the same size as Yulou, so I didn't let the sewing master come again."

Yang glanced at Cheng Hou and explained to Cheng Yuguan.

Cheng Hou was also silent for a moment, and waved his hands, "How much effort does it take to let the servants run errands? You can send someone to invite the sewing master to come to the door later, understand?"

Yang hurriedly squatted down to salute, "Understood, Lord Hou."

Cheng Hou was afraid that Cheng Yuguan would pursue it to the end on the first day, and he would not let him go. He was afraid that Cheng Yuguan would hold on to this matter again, so he quickly changed the subject.

"A while ago you said that you were tired on the road and needed to recuperate, but now you have recuperated? When your grandmother comes back, you can't let you sleep until the sun is high. You have to get up early every day, and you should be careful in the morning and evening. The old lady respects the most rules. .”

Cheng Hou was in his early thirties, with a white face and short beard, sword eyebrows and star eyes. At this time, he had a gentle appearance, very amiable.

Cheng Yuguan also didn't want to be like fighting cocks every day. He would fight with red eyes when he met him. Hearing what his father said, he only smiled and glanced at Mrs. Yang, then walked to the next seat and sat down on his own.

"Who did you hear that I sleep until the sun rises every day? Father, I haven't seen it with my own eyes, so don't jump to conclusions."

Cheng Yuguan glanced at Yang Shi, and Cheng Hou followed Cheng Yuguan's gaze at Yang Shi.

Glaring secretly, Cheng Hou put a smile on his face again and looked back at Cheng Yuguan.

"Oh? Then what do you do in Qingxintang every day? I heard that these days, you only went out once to say hello to those boudoir friends in Yulou, and you are in Qingxintang the rest of the time."

Cheng Hou's tone was gentle, and he kept smoothing things over. Cheng Yuguan was also happy to cooperate with the scene of father's kindness and son's filial piety.

"what do you think?"

When Cheng Hou heard this, he was quite happy.

It was also fun for the family to say that. He stroked his short beard and glanced at Cheng Yulou, the little padded jacket stuck in front of Yang.

"Your second sister is different from ordinary boudoir daughters. She doesn't like needlework and poetry. Now she is a well-known talented girl in Beijing. You, Yuguan, seem to not like needlework either. You speak straightforwardly and don't often quote classics. You should I don’t like reading either. Could it be that you’re hiding in the Qingxintang and wielding knives and sticks?”

Cheng Fangchuan guessed.

When Lord Hou asked about Cheng Yuguan's daily life, Chen Xiang was quite proud, and as soon as Lord Hou finished speaking, she couldn't wait to show off.

"Master Hou guessed half right!"

"Oh?"

Cheng Fangchuan looked at Chen Xiang, "The old lady found you from Zhuangzi to serve Chen Xiang, the eldest lady, right? Tell me, what's the matter?"

Chen Xiang snapped her fingers, "Miss fights boxing and martial arts on time every day, practices calligraphy and reading in the morning, and archery or fishing in the afternoon. She is more diligent than some scholars in studying."

"Oh?" Cheng Fangchuan was a little surprised, "Yuguan actually studied both civil and martial arts. I will come to the study some other day and write a few words for my father."

Seeing the lively talk of several people, Cheng Yulou couldn't help interjecting, "Sister, don't work too hard. I see my younger brother studying every day. I get up at five o'clock in the morning and read at three o'clock at night. I have to doze off to write my homework every day." It's over, just looking at it makes people feel distressed. The eldest sister is a girl, and she doesn't have to take the entrance exam, so let's let myself go, we girls, it's good to have parents and brothers to support us."

With that said, Cheng Yulou came to Cheng Fangchuan, and squeezed his father's shoulders attentively, "Father, are you right?"

Cheng Fangchuan looked satisfied, "Study and study, there is no such thing as hard work. A thousand miles is just the time to lay the foundation, so don't feel bad about him. Only by suffering and suffering can you become a master. This is why he is a man of the Hou family. , the price that should be paid.”

"My daughter listens to my father. Qianli is also very sensible. Today, when his grandmother returned home, his mother asked him to take a day off from school. He insisted on going to school, saying that he would come back after school. It would not be a hindrance, and he would not miss his studies."

Yang joked, "Yes, Qianli's personality is exactly the same as that of Hou Ye when you were a child."

Cheng Fangchuan twirled his short beard and became more and more satisfied, "It should be like this."

Seeing that he couldn't get in the conversation, Chen Xiang secretly went back behind Cheng Yuguan with hatred.

Cheng Yuguan sat down, as if oblivious to the lively family beside him, holding a teacup and scratching it in his hands.

Suddenly, the gauze curtain at the door was lifted again, and a shy woman stood at the door with her two children, but she dared not step into the main hall.

Chenghou Yang's three voices came to an abrupt end.

Cheng Fangchuan frowned, "We're all a family, who are you showing this petty look to? Why don't you come in?"

Mrs. Yang got up hurriedly, "Aunt Tong is here, come in quickly. The old lady is also coming soon, please take your seats quickly."

Aunt Tong is wearing a red dress. It can be seen that the fabric has been used for a long time, and it is a little white after washing. There is only a silver-covered hairpin on her head, which looks very simple. She is leading a pair of children. Although they are also silk clothes, they are obviously not very suitable. The straight hem was wrinkled, as if it had been mended by the left hem.

The boy was nothing more than a silk blouse, barely passable, while the girl was wearing an out-of-date crimson jacket and skirt, which was an old-fashioned color even though it was beginning of summer, and only a pair of red strings were tied on her head.

From Cheng Yuguan's point of view, the boy was about the same age as him, with a difference of at most one and a half years, and the girl was younger, probably around ten years old, with a double bun.

Cheng Yuguan couldn't help looking at Cheng Fangchuan, how did this Lord Hou gain the reputation of being dedicated?
According to the nanny, he and his mother were golden boys and girls. Later, the old lady's niece was born. It is said that she and Chenghou are childhood sweethearts. ?And two kids?

Sensing Cheng Yuguan's gaze, Cheng Fangchuan felt guilty for no reason.

"It's four seasons and eight festivals in the mansion. When is it shorter than the things in Hantingyuan? Who do you always show such a shabby look?" Cheng Hou reprimanded, and before Aunt Tong could speak, he continued, "Not yet Go over and stand still, so that the old lady won't disturb her when she sees you again when she comes in."

When Aunt Tong heard this, she also showed some haste on her face, as if she was afraid of offending Lord Hou, she hurriedly stood behind Cheng Yuguan.

Seeing this, Cheng Fangchuan was about to speak, when the little girl outside the door lifted the curtain to report.

"The old lady's sedan chair is almost at the gate."

Cheng Fangchuan glared at Aunt Tong, then looked away, "Let's go, follow me to meet the old lady."

As soon as they walked outside the Ming Hall and turned around the screen wall, they saw the door was open, and a silver-haired and kind old man was getting off the sedan chair with the help of his servants.

Cheng Fangchuan walked a few steps, Yang Shi and Cheng Yulou followed closely.

"Mother, why don't you let someone inform you in advance, so that your son can come out to pick you up earlier."

Cheng Hou took the old lady from the hand of the nanny, and Yang took advantage of the situation to hold the other arm of the old lady, and the whole family walked back happily.

"I'm just going to live in another village for a few days, and this is going back to my own home, so why do you need to go to war?"

With the support of Cheng Hou and Mrs. Hou, the old lady went up to the high platform, and saw a pretty girl standing beside the gate of the Hou Mansion, looking at herself calmly.

"Su Jun, is that you? Did you come to see me?"

The old lady suddenly took two steps, threw off Cheng Hou and Mrs. Hou, and tightly grasped Cheng Yuguan's hand, her eyes seemed to be in a daze, but also agitated.

Cheng Yuguan felt that his hands were being held by dry and strong hands. Instead of trying to earn them, he smiled slightly and said softly, "Grandma, don't you recognize me? I'm your eldest granddaughter. I heard from the nanny that I Your life, you did everything possible to save it."

Cheng Yuguan's words caused the eyes of the three giants of the Hou Mansion in front of them to flicker and scrutinize for a moment.

...

"Bao Da or Bao Xiao?"

Wen Po's anxious voice seemed to ring in his ears again.

"What big or small? I only want my grandson!"

An old voice said decisively.

"Mother, Sujun, she..."

A man hesitates.

"Master Hou, don't worry, sister Jiren has her own destiny, and nothing will happen. The most important thing right now is to give birth as soon as possible."

A delicate female voice advised.

After a busy night, the shrill screams gradually weakened.

"Miss, you must hold on. The old lady Wen and the doctor arranged by the master are coming soon."

The voice of the nanny shouted, as if she was afraid that the woman in front of her would close her eyes.

"I'm afraid I can't make it. Don't let her stay in the mansion. This Hou's mansion is extremely cold. If she stays in the mansion, she won't be able to grow up."

"Miss, don't worry, the old slave is risking his life to find a way out for the young lady."

"Let me see my grandson."

"Old lady, it's my granddaughter."

"what?"

"Mother, what's the matter with you. Doctor? Come here quickly, mother has fainted..."

...

Cheng Yuguan, who just entered the world, for some reason, has very keen five senses, and she doesn't have the chaotic period of a newborn. Her memories of when she was just born are also from a baby, and she dreams all the time, so she can't forget it all the time.

So facing this old lady with "kind eyebrows and kind eyes", Cheng Yuguan couldn't help but snark.

After the old lady was surprised, her face became kind again, as if she didn't hear what Cheng Yuguan meant, she gently stroked her hands.

"It turned out to be Yuguan my son. Grandma has missed you for more than ten years, and now, she is finally looking forward to your return. Our family is reunited. Even if I turn my head to see your grandfather, I am satisfied."

"Mother, what are you talking about? You have to personally marry Yuguan and Yulou, and watch them get married and have children, and the days to come will be long!"

"Yeah yeah!"

The old lady held Cheng Yuguan's hand, supported her son Cheng Fangchuan with the other hand, and walked towards the gate of Chenghou Mansion with joy.

"mother?"

Cheng Yulou felt a little strange and came to his mother.

"Let's go, enter the mansion. Today is a good day for the old lady to come back, so don't show your face."

"Well, my daughter listens to mother."
