Traveling to Daliang Kingdom starts from falling into the water

Chapter 662 Don’t Move

It was early in the morning, no, it seemed like it was already noon when Zhou Banxia suddenly heard the news. She couldn't sit still and glared at Gu Wenxuan, wanting to get up.

"Slow down, I'm not going to finish yet." Gu Wenxuan quickly held her shoulders, "Not only are the Qi cousins ​​going back, but there are also two little girls going to the capital."

Zhou Banxia was pinned to the chair in front of the dressing table, unable to move. She asked, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, "Can you finish what you want to say at once? What else?"

"Don't you want to ask why these two girls went to the capital?"

"What's there to ask? Miss Shuanglian from the midwife's family was originally going to the capital to celebrate the New Year. The midwife next to my eldest sister-in-law is her eldest aunt, and also her aunt.

As for Lian Jie'er, it's very simple. Even if Lian Jie'er doesn't want to leave her parents to go to the capital for the New Year, Doctor Lin will coax his daughter to go and pay a visit to Uncle Qi."

For one thing, having Lian Jieer traveling with them wouldn't seem too abrupt, and it would make more sense that the two girls were so close that they wanted to play together wherever they went.

The reason they came here this time was not to visit each other, but because Doctor Lin and his family of three came, and the little girl wanted to bring her aunt and sisters along.

Secondly, Doctor Lin has no brothers, and she treats Uncle Qi as her own brother. Now that her sister is not a child anymore, she somewhat wants Uncle Qi to help her choose a son-in-law.

Finally, let's take a look at her parents' family, her husband's family, and Dajiang himself. Compared with the third son of Qi who also lives in the outer courtyard, Doctor Song is the key figure.

With the relationship with Doctor Dong, Doctor Song must be able to find out a lot of information. Who can he send to report the news? And who can be more trustworthy than Lian Jie'er?

Instead, he wanted to go back to the capital with the chief steward of the Gao Mansion. "Who made the decision to go back to the capital with the steward of the Gao Mansion? The Gao Mansion and the Qi Mansion have a good relationship now?
A minister of the Ministry of Personnel and a guard of the Imperial Guard, is it bad to get close to him? What are you thinking? Not to mention their accompanying guards, we have quite a few guards as well."

When Gu Wenxuan saw Zhou Banxia hooking her finger to signal him to put her left ear close to hers, he thought she wanted to whisper something to him. This made him very happy.

Make your teeth look whiter?
"Say it."

"It's not that complicated. It was the steward of the Gao Mansion who sent us gifts in return. It wasn't the first and second grade students who came in person. It was a very formal exchange of favors.

If the couple had come when they were in the first or second year of high school, and returned to Beijing with the daughter of the Qi family, it would be hard to say whether the marriage would be successful.

A mere manager doesn't mean anything. After all, we have always been in contact with the Gao family, and Gao Yi's wife sends a manager to transport goods every month.

If this is considered forming a clique for personal gain, how could Lord Gao have risen to higher positions? If his family's in-laws were not too complicated, how could he have served as the Minister of Rites? He would have been destroyed long ago.

Furthermore, before they came, Master and Uncle Qi had already planned the route and arranged in advance who would form the convoy for the return trip.

For example, they have to stay in Zhoujia Village for one night when they return. In fact, the family from Dingzhou Prefecture who is returning to Beijing for the New Year should be waiting for them to meet up in the next two days.

You know this is an important place in the capital, and Zhili is next to the capital. Many people come back early to worship their ancestors, like Zhang Qingshan. Do you remember this person?"

"It should be the little girl from the Zhang family who took the entrance exam with you, Zhang Qingshan, right? How could I have forgotten? I have already given away the New Year gifts."

"That's right, it's him."

"I understand. He definitely didn't get into the Imperial College in the second half of the year, so he has to take the annual exam. During this period, he can't go back to the place where he is enrolled to take the annual exam."

"Smart!" Gu Wenxuan was secretly happy that he had finally diverted your attention. "After he finishes his exams and offers sacrifices to his ancestors, he will probably be returning to Beijing in the next few days. As for the New Year's gift, when he sent this letter from the Trust Post Station, they should not have received the letter from his government in Beijing, otherwise they would have mentioned it.

He did write in his letter that there were many acquaintances who returned with him, and he also regretted that I lived too far away, otherwise we would have gotten together before returning to Beijing.

Of course, he also mentioned that he had prepared some specialties for us. The letters would be sent through the post station, and the stuff would be handed over to the escort agency. He knew that we were familiar with the Shunyi Escort Agency.

In addition to him, there were several other people, including Senior Brother Zheng. He mentioned in the letter that there was no time for Wen Yu and the others to bring it back, and that Big Brother Yun should send someone to deliver it in a few days.

When these things arrive, Gu Dahua will take over, and Mai Huang will naturally inform you to register them. You just need to keep them in mind, and there is no need to arrange it yourself.

Your third brother and his friends are going back the day after tomorrow. Although they are here to send gifts in return, shouldn’t we prepare some more gifts for them to take back?”

Zhou Banxia was speechless.

Didn't she want to go out and make some arrangements because of this matter? But someone held her down and bullied her with her big belly, not letting her get up.

Seeing this look, Gu Wenxuan couldn't help laughing, "No hurry, I can have breakfast first and make arrangements later. The day after tomorrow is still early, and I'm still at home."

"You don't have to go to the county school anymore?"

"It's still in time. I can just go out with them the day after tomorrow. As long as I can be in the county school the day after tomorrow morning, I won't be late to receive the reward. But I might be late to come back."

"It's dark again?"

"It's dark before 4 or 5 o'clock this season. Think about it. If I have a day off at noon, I still have to go to Yunlaike. Will it be dark when I come back?"

"Why go to Yunlaike?"

"Manager Wang has helped us a lot. It's been a while since I sat down and had a good chat with him. I'll have a meal with Manager Wang. I won't go into the city before the New Year."

"Why do I hear you not going there to exchange feelings with others, but to eat and drink for free? Do you have other plans?"

"Be careful!" Seeing Zhou Banxia turn around and look at him, Gu Wenxuan quickly reminded, "There is a screen in front, so let's remove it."

Zhou Banxia turned around and said, "It's quite far away, and you're holding me, so I can't touch you. This screen can also block it, so that anyone who comes can see me going to the toilet again.

That's fine, but if someone who doesn't know how to behave wants to go in to the bathroom after I come out of it, I will definitely not agree, and I will end up offending her."

Gu Wenxuan thought about entering the inner room, but he was still tactless, "The old lady in our house came to our room? Did she come by herself, or did someone invite her to come?"

Can you not be so smart and guess right at the first try? Zhou Banxia laughed and shook his head, "People have three urgent needs. It's not anyone's fault. I'm just being too hypocritical."

"Then it wasn't you who invited her, but she was able to enter the inner room, and she's still sitting outside. Is she your mother, or your aunt? It can't be your mother!
Your mother is similar to your father. There are also your head ornaments and jewelry in the inner room, which are small and valuable items that are easy to take away. It is even more impossible for your mother to let the old lady enter the inner room—"

"Okay, I'm about to shit my pants, that's not it, it's just that the old lady was thinking about me, and my aunt happened to be back home to give New Year gifts, so I accompanied her to see me.

Do you think it would be more appropriate for me to express my stance in the letter I write to my uncle? And if Dajiang is going out, our carriage will have to be vacated. Did you mention this to my parents before you came back?"
