Liangyue Farm Gate

Chapter 682 Returning to the Village
Guan Wen laughed when Yang'er repeatedly said that he thought Mr. Su was familiar, "Where have you met any high-ranking officials? Maybe Mr. Su looks a little like someone you know, so you think he is familiar."

Yang'er frowned and nodded lightly: "Maybe it is..."

Li Xin was surprised, and asked Guan Wen, "You were also at the birthday banquet, didn't you see Mr. Su?"

Guan Wen laughed and said: "I'm just one of the congratulatory guests. There are a lot of people going to Xue's mansion to celebrate their birthday today. If everyone came forward to make friends, wouldn't it be putting the cart before the horse? The theme of Xue's banquet is old lady Xue. Your birthday is not for people to greet those officials and gentlemen."

Li Xin smiled and said, "But this doesn't affect my ability to make friends with some officials."

"That's true, but I didn't go up there." Guan Wen said: "Their seat is the chairman, and they even drew the screen curtain, just to make it clear that they don't want people to be disturbed. Besides, there are only officials and gentlemen sitting there. It’s not good to form a circle of your own, and it’s not good to join them by force. I took a look, and those who deal with them are either related to the officials among them, or they are the top people in Hui County who can talk. Like Shen Master is one of them."

Li Xin understood: "That means, you haven't seen what those grown-ups look like?"

"Of course I didn't see it." Guan Wen said with a smile, "But it's a coincidence. I asked several other masters carefully. This Mr. Su is the noble man mentioned in Mingzi's letter."

Li Xindun was surprised: "Is it really him? I was thinking earlier, both surnamed Su, could they have something to do with each other, but it turned out to be him himself."

Guan Wen nodded and said: "Master Su is a celebrity in front of the Holy Majesty. Although his official position is low, he has won the trust of the Holy Majesty. Master Xun told me that the Majesty is slowly training him. After all, he is only in his early thirties. After ten years, he will surely be able to penetrate into the core of the court and become the confidant of the Holy Majesty. Mr. Xun is much older than me, so he should have seen these things thoroughly, and he must be telling the truth."

Yang'er nodded violently: "Master Su is a member of the Ministry of Industry, Wailang, and he is very famous!"

Li Xin laughed, and asked him, "Then do you know how high an official Wailang is?"

Yang'er frowned suddenly, and Yoyo giggled in Guan Wen's arms, rubbing her little hands on her face in embarrassment, laughing that her brother didn't know.

Yang'er was embarrassed, but he was an honest child, so he asked if he didn't understand, and said to Guan Wen: "Father, the member of the Ministry of Industry, Wailang, should be a very big official, right?"

Guan Wendao: "Master Xun said it is from the sixth grade."

"Is it very big from the sixth grade?"

Guan Wen smiled helplessly and said: "This... Father doesn't know anymore. But our county magistrate is a seventh rank, which is already a very big official for us. Since the sixth rank is one level above him, then It should be bigger."

Yang'er nodded vigorously: "Well, it must be a bigger official!"

Li Xin held his forehead in a funny way.

But she was a little surprised.

I thought that Mr. Su should have a high official position, but unexpectedly, he is only from the sixth rank.

But think about it, the county magistrate is a seventh-rank official, with politics, economy, and prisons in his hands. He has great power. He is one level higher from the sixth rank. Look at the official rank.

Yang'er admired Mr. Su very much, he talked non-stop all the way, and only took a rest when he got home.

Li Xin saw that he was usually shy, but it was rare to talk about it so excitedly now, so he asked him amusedly: "You patronize Master Kua Nasu, but do you still remember your brother Qingyan? It's rare to see you brother Qingyan once. You heard a few words from him. If your elder brother Qingyan knows, he will be very sad."

Yang'er immediately said "ahhh" guiltily, and then said to Li Xin as if admitting his mistake: "Brother Qingyan is very busy today, and I didn't even bother to talk to him. When Brother Qingyan comes next time, I will definitely talk to him say."

Yang'er said: "Brother Qingyan said when he was leaving that he would come to see his sister when he was free."

Yoyo was hugged by Guan Wen, leaned on Guan Wen's shoulder and yawned gracefully.

Li Xin told Guo Zi to hug You You to wait for her to wash and go to bed, and after a few chats with Yang Er, he also let him go to rest.

Lying on the bed at night, Li Xin stroked his stomach and asked Guan Wen: "Yang'er always said that Mr. Su looks familiar to him... Could it be someone we know?"

Guan Wen turned over and said, "Who can we know who is an official? It must be that Yang'er is delusional."

"I don't think so." Li Xin said: "He may have been delusional when he said it once, but he said it no less than ten times along the way."

Li Xin paused, and said: "He is Mingzi's nobleman after all, and Mingzi sent a letter specially, so I can't help it."

Guan Wen said: "Then I'll find an opportunity to get in touch with Master Su, don't you feel relieved?"

"Will it be bad?" Li Xin said: "Yang'er didn't dare to go up rashly, for fear that others would say that he clings to the powerful. It's fine if he's a child, you're so old..."

Guan Wen smiled and said: "It's okay, if we meet by chance, I won't talk too much, what kind of friendship can I make?"

Li Xin nodded, but frowned again: "We're talking about going back to the village. Could it be that we have to delay for a few days?"

Guan Wen said: "It's okay, it's just a day or two."

However, Guan Wen didn't find a chance to meet Master Su in a daze.

Two days later, Guan Wen said to Li Xin, "I can't help it. I don't know his whereabouts. Others say that he came to inspect the people's situation on behalf of the Holy One, and no one dared to ask him where he was going."

Li Xin breathed a sigh of relief: "Forget it then. I think he has a good reputation, so he shouldn't be a bad person. To be praised by Mingzi and respected by Yanger, he should be a good official."

Li Xin asked Mother Cao to pack her luggage, and then discussed with Guan Wen: "Your father in the courtyard..."

"Don't take him back." Guan Wen said bluntly: "It's not that there is no one at home, just let Guanshi Cao take care of him."

Li Xin was very satisfied with Guan Wen's straightforwardness, and she didn't want to bring someone idle back.The houses in the village are not like the houses in the town, they have separate places.

"What about Aunt Cui and Mu Chun?" Li Xin asked again.

After thinking for a while, Guan Wen asked Li Xin: "Then Aunt Cui is honest?"

"To be honest, since Mu Chun fell ill last time, she has devoted herself to Mu Chun now, taking care of him wholeheartedly, and has never caused any trouble."

"Then take her back as well. It's a bit desolate to leave their mother and son here during the Chinese New Year." Guan Wen sighed: "At any rate, she has been kind to us before."

Li Xin nodded, but Guan Wen was stunned.

It must have reminded me that leaving his father here alone is never desolate...

"Awen..."

"Huh? It's okay." Guan Wen smiled at her and said, "Go to sleep."

On the second day, the Guan family packed up and drove them to Hehua Village in three carriages.

Yoyo looked at the scenery outside excitedly, kept making "ah", "eh", "ah", "ha", and sometimes screamed "mother", "father" and "brother".Li Ge is older, and these scenes are often seen at home. He is very calm, and from time to time he goes to pull Yoyo to let her sit down obediently. When he sees Yoyo lying down again, he pulls again. , You come and I never tire of it.

When they arrived in the village, Uncle Chen and Granny Hua welcomed them into the house.The cleaning of the house was very clean and tidy, Granny Hua smiled and said: "In the first few days, someone came and said that you were coming back. Since then, I have cleaned the house thoroughly twice. I didn't expect to expect you to come back today."

Li Xin smiled and said, "Is everything okay at home?"

"Everything is fine." Granny Hua said: "Everything is in order, besides, the second master Guan and his wife are taking care of it, and there is nothing wrong with it."

Granny Hua looked at Li Xin's figure and smiled from ear to ear: "I haven't congratulated Madam yet, is my belly starting to show?"

Li Xin nodded with a smile.

"Then you have to take a good rest. Are you tired on the road? Hurry up and sit in the house for a while."

Granny Hua hurriedly told Li Xin to go in, followed by Qingya and Guozi.

Granny Hua saw that Yoyo couldn't like her so much, so she hugged Yoyo in her arms.Li Ge refused to be hugged, and walked beside Li Xin by himself.

"By the way, why didn't you see Xiaobi?" Li Xin asked.

Granny Hua immediately covered her mouth and smiled: "I didn't tell Madam, Xiaobi, I'm happy!"

Li Xin said "ah" in surprise, and then laughed immediately: "This is a good thing, let her take care of it quickly, and give her a few months off."

Granny Hua nodded and said with a smile: "She has been very embarrassing recently, and her mother-in-law is not willing to let her work." Granny Hua sighed: "At the beginning, I really thought that she was a bit disadvantaged by marrying Sangouzi, but now I look at her. Live well, her in-laws are very kind to her, and there is nothing troublesome at home, so I feel at ease just looking at her."

"I can't be at ease." Li Xin said with a smile: "You will be a grandmother in a while, and your little grandson will have to worry about you."

Granny Hua smiled from ear to ear: "Yes, what Madam said is true, I still have a lot to do."

After exchanging pleasantries, Granny Hua saw that Li Xin was tired, so she let Li Xin rest, and said, "Master Xiaokang hasn't finished school yet, Second Master Guan and the others are all at the pig farm, and Master Geng is also going with him. Yes. Brother Chen should send someone to greet them. Madam, please rest for a while."

Li Xin nodded, but felt sleepy, so she asked Qing Ya to help her arrange A-mei, Aunt Cui and Mu Chun.

Wake up after enough rest, Guan Wu and Xing'er are back.Xing'er was chatting with Youyou in the hall outside Li Xin's house, and Li Ge was also joking around.

Yang'er and Xiaokang had already hooked their shoulders together and talked on their own, leaving little Geng'er wandering around the room boredly, half listening to his mother talking to the two girl dolls.

Li Xin came out fully dressed, smiled and said to Xing'er: "Do you feel itchy when you look at the two dolls? If it's itchy, you have to have another one."

Xing'er turned her head and spat angrily, and said with a smile: "You said it lightly, now that the two children are annoying, I can't control it, adding another one? I'm afraid it will take me." die."

Yoyo ran towards Li Xin, hugged Li Xin's leg, and murmured to his mother, Li Ge said crisply: "Sister, Yoyo is not good."

Yoyo immediately glared at her little aunt, and defended clumsily: "Be good, Yoyo, be good, Yoyo."

"You're not good, you eat your hands, you're ashamed." Li Ge made a face at Yoyo, and Yoyo couldn't say no to her, so her face showed grievance and she was about to cry.
