Chapter 267
In the second year after Qu Changjiu's stepwife Ding arrived in Beidi, he gave birth to a baby boy. Qu Kuaishou was overjoyed to name his second grandson Qu Qingcheng. In the third year, Ding gave birth to another baby boy. Kuaishou happily named the third grandson Qu Beihe.

The Deng family has always been respected and filial by the Ding family in the Northland, and having two grandchildren, naturally they like the Ding family even more.

Qu Duo and his wife stayed in Tanzhou because they had always kept filial piety for the Lin family, so there was no addition to the family, except that the two sons grew up a little bit, and there was no slight change.

Qu Duo seldom wrote letters to Qu Jiujiu, and naturally received few replies, especially after Qu Jiujiu expressed his love for Ding's son in the letter, Qu Duo wrote even less.

The change in Qin Yue's family was that He Huishu gave birth to a dark-skinned son named Qin Zifeng.Under He Huishu's order, Qin Minye traveled around the world to practice at the beginning of this year, but he has not returned yet.

The Li family has not changed much.

Li Yunqing has repeatedly made military achievements in the Huben Army led by He Jingyan, and has been named General Ningyuan under the fifth rank.He and Li Bing have been in Beidi for several years and have never returned to Tanzhou.

Li Qubing used the capital and shops given by Li Bing to do several businesses and earned 10,000+ taels of silver, [-]% to Qu's and [-]% to He's.

Li Yunxiao and He Yiyang raised funds and invited Qin Shanyi and Zhang Luo to do business with the condition of 4% profit, and each made [-] taels of silver successively.

Li Jingjing's Tanzhou Women's Skills School has completed six sessions.

Li Jingjing's good friend Huahua went to school when she was ten years old, and returned to Xiaoju Village after graduation.

Huahua bought two looms and hired people to weave and sell the cloth, and opened a small restaurant specializing in steamed buns and steamed buns from the Northland. She earned more money than her whole family combined. She was less than 11 years old and came to ask for a marriage. people cross the threshold.

It's not just Huahua, many female students who graduated from school have used the skills they have learned to find good jobs or start businesses at home, earning more money than the rest of the family, so they are especially easy to talk about marriage.

Ma Lan, who was once ridiculed and looked down upon by the official's wife, has her own home and is married to Dr. Li Shiyun of the pharmacy.

Li Shiyun was ugly, if Ma Lan's reputation had not been ruined, he would not have been able to marry him.

Ma Lan took a fancy to Li Shiyun's status as an orphan. Without her parents-in-law, aunt, and uncle, no one would gossip about her. Besides, Li Shiyun's medical skills are excellent, and he will become a great doctor in a few years.

Li Shiyun is very good not only to Ma Lan, but also to Ma Lan's direct brother Ma Song and the Ma family.The two were very happy after getting married.

One day in the twelfth lunar month, the cold wind howled and light snow fell from the sky. Tanzhou Academy had already had a winter vacation, and the Li family had moved from the academy's Li Mansion back to the Hou Mansion for two days.

Li Laoshi knocked on the door of Mrs. Qu's room, saw that she was talking with Mrs. He, sitting in front of him who was sitting in a daze, He Jiye and Li Yunfei who was concentrating on playing with the nine chains in his hand, and said excitedly: "Mother, Dad wrote. This time, Dad has something important to tell you."

Qu's face was full of anticipation, and he asked anxiously: "Can your father and Qing Yazi come back for the Chinese New Year?"

Li Laoshi shook his head slightly, but said with a smile: "Mother, father and Qingyaozi will not go back to Tanzhou for the new year. They go directly to Chang'an from Beidi in the spring, and let us wait for Qubing and Xiaoyaozi to take the spring scientific examination. Tanzhou moved to Chang'an."

He's eyes lit up.Heart said: the battle in the north is about to end.Our family is finally going to Chang'an.

Qu Shi had nothing to look forward to when going to the prosperous Chang'an, the imperial capital of the Ding dynasty, but it was a great thing to be reunited with Li Bing and Li Yunxiao, and said with a smile, "Tell me your father's beliefs."

Li Laoshi called in two big servants and carried He Jiye and Li Yunfei out.

"Grandpa has just sent you a letter. Let me hear what grandpa said." Li Jingjing came back from Tanzhou Duke's mansion to see Ming's illness.

She is ten years old this year, she is only a little shorter than Qu Shi and He Shi, her skin is as smooth as snow, her eyebrows are curved as if drawn with a brush, her star eyes are shining brightly, she has a high nose bridge, rose red cherry lips, her appearance is beautiful The fall is very beautiful, and the temperament is very elegant and dusty.

This time she is wearing a long lake blue dress, covered with a gold velvet cloak embroidered with purple and silver cloud patterns, and combing a pair of maidservants, with only two short gold hairpins inlaid with gold steel diamonds stuck in her hair.

"Your grandfather asked us to move to Chang'an in April next year, are you happy?" Mrs. Qu pulled the only precious granddaughter among her grandchildren and sat beside her.

Li Jingjing smiled and said, "Grandma, Chang'an is a good place. Of course I'm happy."

She had heard He's talk about going to Chang'an a long time ago.I have been looking forward to seeing the prosperity and beauty of Chang'an, the ancient capital of several dynasties for thousands of years.

He Shi asked: "How is old lady Ming doing?"

Li Jingjing put away her smile and said softly: "The old man has only been in these two days."

Three months ago, Ming's appetite dropped drastically, he couldn't eat meat, and he didn't like to eat vegetarian food. In less than a hundred days, he lost forty catties.

From the beginning of the twelfth lunar month, the Ming family would fall ill and faint to go to the gate of hell every two days.This is the fourth time Li Jingjing has been invited by Qin Yue and his wife to bring Ming family back from the gate of hell.

He Huishu didn't want Mrs. He to be affected by Mrs. Ming's sickness to the two little nephews, and she refused to let Mrs. He go. Even if Li Jingjing went, she just let her leave immediately after seeing her illness.

It took Li Jingjing only an hour to go back and forth from the Hou's mansion to the Duke's mansion.

"My in-laws grandma is 82 years old. To put it bluntly, even if she goes, it would be a joy or a funeral." Mrs. Qu visited Ming's a few days ago.

Ming's tastes delicious just like her, and she knows how uncomfortable it is to see Ming's dying and unable to eat.

She felt that it would be better for Ming to die than suffer from such pain.

Mrs. He nodded, and said quietly: "My sister and brother-in-law have sent a letter to the Chang'an Duke's Mansion, and they replied that the Duke went to the North to fight. Unable to get away, I sent my brother-in-law's nephew Qin Anlin over here, and he should be here in a few days."

Li Jingjing heard Li Qubing and Qin Minye mention Qin Anlin before. He is the second son of the late son Qin Nan. He failed the scientific examination five years ago and joined the army two years ago because of filial piety. Goods officers.

Qu thought that if Ming did not die, he would be tortured, and the younger generation would suffer accordingly, wondering if he would be like this when he was old.My heart is inexplicably irritable.

Sensing that something was wrong with Qu Shi, He raised his hand and urged: "Changsheng, quickly read Dad's letter to Mother."

Qu Shi felt better when he heard this.

Li Laoshi has already read the letter, and the contents inside cannot be heard by outsiders. He closed the door, windows and doors of the bedroom tightly, and waited for the footsteps of the servants outside the door to fade away, then took out the letter from his arms and opened it to read. .

The content of the letter first mentioned the Li family's relocation to Chang'an, and then used a large space to mention Li Yunqing's marriage for the first time.
