The Chronicle of the Rebirth of the First Daughter

Chapter 316
The door of Meng's house was wide open, and the outside of Gaoda's mansion was swept clean, not a speck of dust could be seen.

The butler led the concierge and the others to stand in front of the door. They were all dressed in bright clothes and tidy up very neatly.

In the middle of the morning, everyone was a little tired, so the concierge wanted to persuade the housekeeper to go in and rest for a while, saying that he was afraid that he would have to wait for a long time before anyone could be found.

But I didn't want to, before I finished talking, I heard the sound of cars and horses in the distance.

"I'm coming!"

The butler hurried down a few steps, wiped off his sweat, and was about to go forward.

A concierge ran to the mansion early and shouted loudly: "The young master is back, the young master is back."

All of a sudden, everyone in the mansion moved quickly, and people from all houses and courtyards packed up and came out, ready to welcome the eldest and young master's family.

After a while outside the door, I saw the shadows of chariots and horses from a distance. I saw a red horse in the first place, and immediately sat a man in his 20s with two mustaches. He looked much more mature and stable. The man Dressed in a blue robe, riding in a carriage and being blown by the wind, the corners of the robe fluttered, really a bit of a romantic attitude.

Behind him is a big blue silk carriage with two horses, and after that are several ordinary carriages, and carriages dressed in salutes.

The convoy is quite long, and the steward also understands that the young master has been working in Shandong for so many years. When he comes back suddenly, it is like moving house. He has to bring back many things. I am afraid that this is not all his belongings.

He smiled and took a few steps forward, stretched out his hand to lead the horse, and said with a smile: "The eldest young master is back, the master and concubine have waited for a long time, today is finally here."

Meng Haoyu flew off the horse, and the butler hurriedly handed the reins to the porter, and when he turned his head, he saw his young mistress stepped on the stool and got off the carriage, and the girls in the carriage behind also came down, and several nannies were hugging the children. .

The housekeeper was very excited when he saw the three neat children. The single heirs of several generations of the Meng family finally blossomed when they came to his young master, and they had three legitimate sons at once. It was a great joy to celebrate. These three children don't know what they will be happy about.

When Meng Haoyu saw the three children, his face was full of kindness. He was not as pedantic as an ordinary official. He was very close to the children when he said that he would hold grandchildren but not children. The child was pulled to the side, Ji Wanrong hugged the little one, and the family of five entered the door.

The butler was busy leading the way, and also busy greeting the masters.

Along the way, all the servants and maids who met were happy to greet, Ji Wanrong asked the maids behind him to give rewards along the way, and just entered the second gate.

But Xin Zhenzhu was wearing a silver-red dress and golden jewelry on her head, and brought a group of maids and women out to welcome her.

Ji Wanrong squinted her eyes, thinking that Liu Mei was down, and she was not at home, but Xin Zhenzhu got up, looking at this dress, this style, I don't know, she really thought she was the grandmother in charge.

However, she also thought that Xin Zhenzhu didn't have a son, but was only a concubine daughter. Her whole plans were on her daughter, and she only wanted her daughter to find a good husband's family. You also need someone to serve you. Instead of finding someone who doesn't understand the situation, it's better to have a son like Xin Zhenzhu who knows the basics and obeys his own words.

"Aunt Xin."

Ji Wanrong went over to greet her with a smile on her face, and saw Yuejuan behind Xin Zhenzhu, with an affectionate expression on her face: "Sister Yuejuan!"

Yuejuan is now in her teens, and her body has already started to twitch, she looks like a girl, she stepped forward to salute generously, Ji Wanrong looked at her carefully, this child is getting better and better, inheriting Meng Zhiwen and Xin Pearl's advantage is that she is very pretty. Speaking of it, if you only look at her looks and don't look at her overall style, this girl is no worse than Yuechan.

"I've seen my brother, I've seen my sister-in-law!" Yuejuan smiled, and hugged the little boy from Ji Wanrong's arms: "This is my little nephew, I just heard about it, but I haven't seen it. I will see you today." , It’s really long, like a dough ball, just like the boy under Guanyin’s seat.”

As soon as she praised the child, Ji Wanrong first smiled: "I don't know who I learned from my sister's mouth. It's so sweet, maybe it came out with honey today."

When Meng Haoyu returned home, he felt comfortable physically and mentally, with a smile on his face. He was also happy to see Yuejuan. He remembered that Yuejuan was so small when he left, but she grew so big all of a sudden, so she nodded affectionately: "My younger sister has grown taller, and my elder brother is almost unrecognizable."

While talking, a few entered the room, Meng Haoyu asked: "Where is the master?"

Pearl asked someone to bring tea over, and smiled: "No, spring is here, and the Ministry of Criminal Justice has a lot of things to do. The master went to the Yamen today and said he would be back in a while. It is true. When you come back today, you have received a letter early. Yes, instead of waiting at home, why go to the yamen?"

Meng Haoyu hurriedly said seriously: "Master is dedicated to his duties and loyal to the country. This is right. We will stay here permanently when we come back. It will be different when we see each other. If we don't go to the yamen and miss the state affairs, it is our fault."

Pearl quickly stood up and said, "Yes, I was wrong."

Seeing Pearl on the road, Meng Haoyu smiled and didn't say anything anymore. Seeing that Pearl was a little uncomfortable, Wanrong quickly took Yuejuan's hand and said with a smile: "I haven't seen you for a few years, and my sister is getting better and better. I look at it, but it's the same as my father's wife." A younger sister who is a direct relative is not bad, looking at her appearance and bearing, she is worthy of the title of Miss of the Duke's Mansion."

Pearl's words are ironed in her heart, and she is also somewhat affectionate to Wanrong.

Yuejuan just lowered her head, holding the child and playing with her, her face flushed with embarrassment.

All of a sudden Zhenzhu got up to arrange the meals, let the kitchen pick up the good ones, tidied up happily, and said with a smile: "Only two pairs of rabbits and a few pheasants were brought into the village before, I let someone stew the pheasants, and we will have dinner later." When it’s cooked, it’s stewed so badly that you can try it, let’s stew the rabbit in clear water to save some greasy, and let Tete find a lot of fresh vegetables and fruits, you can try it later.”

Wanrong only smiled and said that Auntie was bothering.

Three more children were introduced. The eldest was named Meng Mingcheng, who was six years old this year, the second was named Meng Mingda, who was just four years old this year, and the youngest was Mingde, who was only a little over a week old.

The three children came to see Aunt Xin and Yuejuan, and both of them smiled and gave gifts.

Wanrong asked the girl to bring the gift again, and said with a smile: "My master is not as prosperous as Chang'an, and there is nothing novel about it. However, there are a lot of seafood, and what we bring are only products from the sea. What's so good about it?" Okay, auntie and sister don't dislike it."

Pearl only said: "Family, how can you be so polite, and bring gifts when you return to your own home."

However, there was a little more smile on her brows and eyes, she only said that she was valued and received a gift, not to mention good or bad, just this name, it is also honorable to say it, otherwise, there are quite a few people in the house My aunt, why only send her alone first.

Wanrong asked someone to carry a box over, opened the lid, and saw a huge coral, and the pearls that looked at it gasped.

Wanrong's face was a little smug: "This is for sister Yuechan, carry it down first."

Pearl glanced at her and understood that Wanrong was showing off because Meng Haoyu was afraid that he would make a lot of money in office.

However, she also knew that she would depend on Meng Haoyu for her living in the future, so she didn't say anything.

I also saw someone carrying a big box, opened the box, and took out a box from inside. Wanrong took it over, opened it, and saw that the box was full of pearls of various colors. Wanrong smiled and handed it to Yuejuan: "This belongs to my sister, your brother There is nothing else in the office, but there are a lot of pearls in the sea. You can use them to collect jewelry and make beads, but you don’t feel good. You can use them as marbles to play. Our family has nothing else, but these beads are enough. enough."

There was quite a bit of complacency in her words, Pearl was surprised by something, thinking about it, this family has indeed made a fortune.

Wanrong rummaged through the box again, took out another box, opened the lid to see, but it was also quite a lot of novelty jewelry, including the red coral bead string, the whole agate carved hairpin, the wind bell made of shell, There is also a set of cups carved in clear crystal.

"This is for Auntie. Don't dislike it if it's too simple." Wanrong handed it to Pearl herself, and said with a smile: "I came here in a hurry, and these things were made in a hurry. What's the point, Auntie?" Don't worry, if there is anything you want, just tell me, if there is, I will definitely find it for my aunt."

Things are secondary, the key is this kind of heart, Pearl is not new to the world, these things are good, she is not lacking, what she wants is Wanrong's attitude, now holding the box, look at Yuejuan's box Pearl, then smiled: "It's hard for you to remember our mothers, well, it's getting late, you should clean up quickly, and when the master comes back later, I sent a letter to you, and our family is having a lively meal." reunion dinner."

After hearing this, Wan Rong wanted to take the children back to the house to clean up, and let the maids put the things they brought away properly.

But when she stood up, she saw the butler rushing over: "Eldest Young Master, Young Mistress, Aunt Xin, Fourth Miss, hurry up, Ninth Princess is here..."

In a word, everyone quickly stood up, Meng Haoyu didn't care about being tired, and hurried out: "Hurry up and open the middle door to welcome the princess."

Wan Rong listened, showing a bit of complacency on her face, she took the child and went out, Xin Zhenzhu looked at Yuejuan, squeezed her hand, and the two mothers also walked out.

All of a sudden, a lot of people gathered at the gate of Meng's house, all looking forward with their heads stuck out.

After a while, I saw a few white horses galloping in front, standing in two rows outside the mansion, followed by the deacon's eunuch, waiting at the bottom of the steps, and the history of the royal mansion, also dismounted and waiting, with various honor guards Afterwards, a mahogany three-treasure top inlaid with tassel beads and a four-horse horse-drawn carriage approached.

After the carriage was parked, a well-dressed girl and woman came forward and spread a red carpet on the ground. A little eunuch knelt down, and the curtain of the carriage was raised. Dressed in satin palace attire, with Ruyi eight-treasure skirt underneath, red embroidered shoes embroidered with five blessings holding peaches, and a set of golden jewels inlaid with rubies shining on the head.

Yuechan came out slowly, stretched out her slender white fingers, supported the girl's hand, and stepped on the little eunuch's back to get off the carriage. .

When she got out of the car, she had seen her brother and sister-in-law waiting outside the door. For a moment, she had mixed feelings. She hadn't seen her in seven or eight years. When she saw her suddenly, she felt really upset. She didn't know whether it was joy or worry, so she fell weep.

"Brother, sister-in-law..."

A call contains thousands of words, and Meng Haoyu couldn't help feeling sad when he heard it. He was about to step forward to pull her, thinking that his sister was already the Ninth Princess, and the royal family had strict rules, so she couldn't be casual. The little girl who spoke softly in front of her and got close to and played with her.
