The ultimate rebirth of the abandoned woman

Chapter 469 Returning to Beijing
On this day, Xiao Nan took a pair of children to visit the eldest princess.

After a ceremony, Xiao Zhen and Xiao Zhi took Lingxi and Changsheng to the martial arts training ground in the backyard to compete in kung fu, while Yuan Shi and other sisters-in-law accompanied Xiashou to chat with Xiao Nan.

"...Qiao Mu, have you heard that in the past few days, King Wei's Bieye has been extremely lively, and there is an endless stream of noble ladies who come to visit Princess Wei every day, hehe, almost stepping on the threshold of Bieye's gate. It's evened out."

It was Xiao Zhuo's wife Liu Shi who was talking, because she was the youngest of the three daughter-in-laws, and because Xiao Zhuo was loved by the Eldest Princess, Liu Shi was a little less restrained in front of the Eldest Princess, and she spoke with ease. Also more casual.

Xiao Nan shook his head and said: "These days are very hot, I am worried about the children, so I seldom go out. Speaking of which, I should also visit my fourth uncle and fourth aunt, otherwise those who know my family's situation will understand a little bit, no Knowing that I still think I don’t have elders in my eyes.”

Yuan said with a smile: "Qiao Mu, don't worry, when Mr. Lang and I went to pay my respects to my fourth uncle the day before yesterday, I already explained it to you. The two elders are also reasonable people. I know that your quadruplets have just turned [-]. Today is the time when you can't live without people... Fourth aunt also said, wait a minute, she wants to see the quadruplets in person."

Xiao Nan smiled embarrassedly, "Brother and sister-in-law are here. Speaking of brother, what did he do, go out early in the morning?"

Yuan Shi glanced at the mother-in-law on the throne, and said softly: "The fourth uncle's staff and the literati recruited have just arrived in Lishan, and the fourth uncle held a poetry competition. To recount the old days, secondly, collect more good poems and sentences, and compile them into a collection in the future, and distribute them all over the world."

Xiao Nan raised her eyebrows. As far as she knew, although Xiao Bo's name was 'Bo', he was not really a learned person, at least poetry was his weakness.If it's calligraphy, or writing or something, he's stronger.

Seeing the surprise in Xiao Nan's eyes, Yuan Shi explained with a smile: "You also know that Mr. Lang is not good at composing poems, but the fourth uncle said that he has been away from Beijing for many days, and he really misses his relatives and friends in Beijing. I will chat with your nephews and nephews and have a glass of wine."

Although Xiao Bo was not from the Eldest Princess, in terms of status, King Wei is Xiao Bo's serious uncle, so he was also invited.

Of course, the real reason is absolutely not like this, Xiao Nan secretly thought that if Xiao Bo was not the son of Song Guogong, even if he rushed to call Wei Wang 'uncle', Wei Wang would not even look at him.

After talking and joking a few more words, Yuan Shi used an excuse to urge the cook to prepare the lunch, then got up and left.

Li Shi and Liu Shi are also people with winking eyes, knowing that the Eldest Princess and Xiao Nan's mother and daughter must have something private to say, they each found an excuse to leave.

Seeing that everyone had dispersed, Xiao Nan smiled mischievously: "Fourth Uncle is indeed a hospitable person."

As soon as he arrived in Lishan, he hosted a grand banquet for the nephew of the honorable minister. Everyone knew what King Wei was planning, except for the old emperor in Tangquan Palace who thought his son was harmonious.

The eldest princess slapped her daughter, and lightly reprimanded: "Don't meddle in their affairs. Also, tell Cui Xiaozi so that he can be smarter too."

"Oh, Mommy, your daughter is not a fool," Xiao Nan rolled his eyes disapprovingly, reached out and touched an orange and peeled it.

"Of course my daughter is not stupid, but other people are not stupid either. Don't blame me for not reminding you. The aunt of your fourth uncle's family is 12 years old this year. It's time to discuss marriage."

The eldest princess leaned on the hidden pouch, raising her daughter with good intentions.

Xiao Nan paused when peeling the orange, and a piece of orange peel was torn. She conveniently put the orange peel on the small table beside her, then peeled off the remaining orange peel, gently broke off a piece of orange and brought it to the princess's lips .

The eldest princess was not polite either, she opened her mouth directly and chewed lightly, the sweet juice was slightly sour, very refreshing.

Xiao Nan broke off another petal and stuffed it into his mouth. A Niang understood what she meant. Now that King Wei's two sons have reached the age of marriage, the daughter can discuss marriage. In this way, the Wei Palace can get married Three in-laws.

According to the emperor and queen's love for Li Xin, Li Xin's wife is not a daughter of a powerful family, but also a daughter of a noble family.

Looking at the capital, there are only a few families that can be regarded as powerful families, and the Cui family is one of them.

Although Cui Ze's official rank is only third rank, but he is a real prime minister, even the sage and crown prince value him very much.

In addition, the old Xianggong has been the prime minister for more than ten years, and many officials in the court were recommended by him, and his subordinates in the past are also in high positions now. These people add up to a considerable force .

And Cui Han, the eldest granddaughter of Cui Ze, is also going to discuss marriage now. If King Wei proposes to marry Cui Han for Li Xin, the Cui family will become King Wei's in-laws. camp.

The Cui family was forced into King Wei's chariot, and the Rongshou Hall couldn't get out of the relationship. At that time, Xiao Nan and Cui Youbo would be in a real dilemma.

Swallowing the orange, Xiao Nan said: "Well, I know, when I get back, I will urge my sister-in-law to make an early engagement with Ah Han."

Upon hearing this, the eldest princess nodded in satisfaction, opened her mouth and continued to enjoy her daughter's service.

Putting the last piece of orange into the eldest princess's mouth, Xiao Nan took the wet handkerchief and wiped his hands, then took out a deed from his sleeve pocket, and handed it to the eldest princess: "This is what I gave to Ah Zhen. And Ah Zhi’s, A Niang will help them keep them.”

The eldest princess took it over and unfolded it, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise, this child is really, really caring!

Without refusal, the eldest princess asked her confidant maid to put it away, and said with a smile: "You still have a conscience, it's not in vain that Ah Zhen called you sister."

Xiao Nan pursed his mouth, and A Niang is really too, it would be tiring to praise me a few words.

Seeing this, the eldest princess became even happier, and asked again: "By the way, did Princess Shu's actions have your beginnings and ends?"

The eldest princess would not refuse the polo field dry stock that came to her door, and she heard that besides her, Cui Wei also gave a copy to Zongzheng and the princess.

Xiao Nan argued strongly: "Aniang, how do you know it's me? Maybe he thought of it by himself?" Isn't Cui Wei smart for a while?

"Hmph!" The eldest princess snorted coldly, and poked Xiao Nan's forehead vigorously with her finger, "Do you really think I'm a fool?"

If the one from Liulang's family is really smart, he should have done this when he first opened the polo field.

Speaking of this, the eldest princess seemed to have thought of something, sat up and asked: "By the way, why did I hear that there are still people in Beijing who are spreading gossip about you?"

Xiao Nan is not at all surprised that the Eldest Princess is so well-informed.Wang You'an's wife is a sister of the eldest sister-in-law Yuan's family. If the eldest sister-in-law knows, is there any reason why the eldest princess does not know?

Xiao Nan twitched the corner of his mouth, "Don't worry, Aunt, I will take care of this matter."

The eldest princess warned: "As soon as possible, we will return to Beijing next month, don't let those nonsense spread." Beijing is already chaotic enough, and she really doesn't want her daughter to fall into it.

Xiao Nan didn't say anything, just nodded vigorously.

The mother and son had lunch, and Xiao Nan took a nap in the eldest princess' bedroom. In the afternoon, she returned home with a pair of children who didn't have enough fun.

Yuan shi sent Xiao Nan's mother and son out, before parting, Yuan shi leaned into Xiao Nan's ear and whispered: "Xiao Hui has returned to Beijing!"

Xiao Nan was startled, and thought for a while before he remembered who Xiao Hui was.Speaking of which, Xiao Hui is not an outsider, but her half-sister.

Back then, the Eldest Princess had nothing to do after her marriage, so in desperation she gave Prince Concubine Xiao two concubines, plus Prince Concubine Xiao originally had two maidservants, and these four women gave birth to Concubine Xiao's three sons and two daughters one after another.

Among them, Xiao Bo and Xiao Hui were both descended from a servant girl surnamed Qi.

Later, the eldest princess thought that she was barren, so she recorded Xiao Bo in her own name, but Xiao Hui was left in the Xiao family and raised by Mrs. Xiao.

Later, the Eldest Princess gave birth to Xiao Nan, for the sake of her daughter, she was kind to the concubines and took them to the Princess Mansion, but she still didn't want to see the two concubines.

Concubine Xiao is very traditional and doesn't care much about concubine daughters.Therefore, Xiao Nan's two concubine sisters were not valued very much in the Xiao family, and they grew up and married like shadows.

Xiao Hui is better, her own brother is the eldest son of Concubine Xiao after all, and he has some face in the Princess Mansion, so her life in Xiao's family is better.

Her husband's family was carefully selected by Consort Xiao and Xiao Bo. Although it is not a top-notch family, it is also a second-rate famous family. The conditions of the husband and son-in-law are good. The only bad thing is that just after Xiao Hui passed the family, her father-in-law became an official due to illness, and the whole family returned to their original place.

When Xiao Nan came, Xiao Hui had already left Beijing, so she had little impression of this concubine sister.

Xiao Hui also knew that Xiao Nan didn't want to see her. After leaving Beijing, she never wrote a letter to Xiao Nan.

After a long time, Xiao Nan even forgot that he still has two concubines.

Hearing that Xiao Hui was coming back, Xiao Nan thought hard, but still couldn't remember any information about her, so he said lightly: "Oh, when will my sister arrive in Beijing? Speaking of which, we haven't seen each other for eight or nine years. I don't know how she is now?"

Seeing that Xiao Nan didn't show any displeasure, Yuan Shi breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile: "I heard from Mr. Lang that Ah Hui came here with her sister-in-law, who just finished her filial piety, and they have no close relationship in their hometown. Elders, it’s time for the sister-in-law to choose officials, so—"

Xiao Nan nodded, "Well, the Xie family has no elders, sister and our Xiao family, it's good to go back to Beijing!"

Hearing Xiao Nan's kind words, Yuan Shi was completely relieved. She hadn't forgotten how Xiao Hui didn't want to see Xiao Hui when Xiao Nan was not married, and even the eldest princess hated the two concubines even more.

Now that Xiao Hui's husband's family is in decline, they can only rely on her natal family, but if Xiao Nan still doesn't like her, even if Xiao Bo is the eldest son, the couple would not dare to support Xiao Hui's family openly.

In fact, Yuan Shi was too worried, Xiao Nan was more worried about the rumors in Beijing than an insignificant concubine.

However, before Xiao Nan could come up with any new gossip material, God helped her create a big incident——Wei Zheng was critically ill!
The sage was nostalgic, and Wei Zheng was an upright minister. When he heard that he was about to die, the sage couldn't sit still. He led the queen and a group of descendants and hurried back to the capital.

The other dignitaries didn't dare to delay, they packed their luggage one after another, and ended their summer vacation in Lishan ahead of schedule.

Cui Youbo and his wife were no exception. After packing their luggage and holding their children, the family returned to Beijing with the army...
