He Hua drank several glasses of wine and her head was a little dizzy. She spoke the question eloquently and realized what Bo Rong meant. The corners of her mouth that were still slightly raised lowered, she frowned and looked at Bo Rong, and after a moment of silence she said: "Jintang has never been involved in our family's affairs. Unless I go to him to make suggestions, he will help me give advice. What I just said is what I said to you from the bottom of my heart. e3"
Bo Rong immediately regretted what he said just now. After drinking, his tongue seemed to be out of control. Looking at He Hua's slightly sullen expression, he opened his mouth to explain something but didn't know what to say.
"I can understand Brother's concerns. After all, you and Brother Jianyu have been friends for so long and your relationship is much closer than that between you and Jintang. To be honest, I can't vouch for you in front of you and say that Jintang doesn't care. Chapter 384: Whether relatives meet now or in the future. After all, as I just said, people will change. But, brother, we are brothers and sisters. No matter how I change in the future, my heart for my family is the same. It will never change. I will not force you to trust Jintang or trust my vision, but you should trust your sister and me. You have to believe that if someone will do something detrimental to our family, even if that person is mine. Husband, I will definitely stand by my family."
After hearing He Hua say so many words in a low voice, Bo Rong looked more and more guilty. He raised his hand to fill up the wine for He Hua and himself, raised his glass and said: "Sister is right, it's the eldest brother and I'm too worried. Let's Don't tell lies between brothers and sisters, the eldest brother will give you a toast to make amends."
"Brother's words are serious." Hehua drank Bo Rong's toast, and the uncomfortable feeling in her heart just now has almost dissipated, "Brother treats me as one of his own and speaks to me frankly. If there is any misunderstanding, just let me know." .”
The two brothers and sisters kept talking to each other, and drank a lot of wine. In the end, Hehua didn't know how she got back to the room, while Bo Rong went back and talked to Xiaoxiu all night long with the help of wine. if.
Early in the morning of the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, Bo Rong had a groggy head. It was not a good feeling to stay up late after a hangover. Chapter 384: Relatives Meeting. After drinking two bowls of hangover soup, Xiaoxiu felt a little more energetic. She sat in front of the dressing mirror and spread powder several times before barely covering the bruises under her eyes. She reached out and pinched Bo Rong's arm, " Go and wash your face quickly. I didn’t know you were such a talkative person last night when you were drunk! I’m going to send Lotus and her husband home today, let’s see how confused you look like.”
Xiao Xiu ordered breakfast to be prepared quickly and sent people to invite the Hehua couple to come over for dinner. Unexpectedly, the girl came back and said with a smile: "Grandma, my uncle said that my aunt is still drunk and can't wake up. Let grandma decorate it." Eat, wait until my aunt wakes up halfway, and then you won’t have breakfast at home.”
"Ah..." Xiaoxiu didn't expect Hehua to drink so much. She couldn't laugh or cry at this moment. She could only give Bo Rong a look, "You can just drink the yellow soup yourself, but why did Hehua drink so much? Really. "
After that, he asked the girl to take the food box and fill it with porridge, side dishes and some pastries. They were all sent to the carriage outside.
Finally, Qi Jintang wrapped Lotus in a big cloak and carried her directly into the carriage from the back door. After settling in, she came down to say goodbye to Bo Rong and Xiao Xiu.
Before leaving, Bo Rong reached out and patted Qi Jintang on the shoulder and said, "Go back and work hard. If you have anything to do, send a letter and we can check it out together."
After both parties repeatedly said goodbye, the convoy slowly set off.
It was already past noon when He Hua woke up. Her stomach was growling with hunger. Her head felt a dull pain when she moved even slightly, and she couldn't help but groan.
When Qi Jintang saw that she was awake, he quickly put down the book in his hand, helped her sit up, and told Miao'er to heat up the hangover soup, and then brought in the hot porridge and side dishes.
After drinking the sobering soup, Hehua calmed down for a long time before regaining consciousness. Only then did she realize that she was already sitting on a rickety carriage. After filling my stomach and just relaxing for a while, I remembered that there was a distant relative at home waiting for me to go back, and I couldn't help but start to have a headache.
But no matter how much headache the two of them had, the leisurely time on the road would always pass. Before evening, looking at the city gate building from a distance, Hehua didn't know whether she was relieved or worried and sighed: "Finally we're home."
Ma Chao had already ridden back early to inform his family to prepare. There were not many people when he left, but when he came back he brought two newly bought servants, plus the things Borong and Sun Jianyu brought, so it was inevitable that a few more carriages would be added to the crowd.
As soon as he got off the car and entered the house, hot water was brought to him to wash his face and hands. After changing his clothes, Hehua first told Hong Yuan to go to the inn to invite people over, and then called Xiao Zhen to inquire about the situation.
"Grandma didn't know that early that morning, I heard banging on the door outside, which startled the slave. She thought something big had happened, so she quickly asked Ma Yong and Hong Yuan to go out and take a look. , a family of five came. The couple brought three children, two sons and one daughter. The eldest was 16 and the youngest was only eight. They spoke like people from the north, but with some other accents. Anyway, it doesn't sound awkward. When I came in, I said that he was our master's distant cousin. He said that he learned from his hometown that he was an official here, so he came here specially to serve. My master and grandma were not at home, and the slaves did not dare to make decisions without permission. Come in, what if it's a liar? But I didn't dare to offend when I said it. If it was really my relative, wouldn't we be rude? In the end, we had to compromise and find a way to put them in an inn. The slave rented two good guest rooms and gave her all the money. On the day of her thirties, she even had a New Year's Eve dinner. Whether it was true or not, the slave was extremely kind and righteous, making it difficult for people to choose. Something went wrong.”
Miao'er was folding clothes in the room and exclaimed in wonder: "Grandma, listen, this girl is not only becoming more eloquent, she also has a better temper."
Hehua smiled and said, "Well, you did a good job, why did they provoke you?"
"The men of his family came to the door two or three times a day to ask when the master and grandma would be back. The servant said that it was the master's business. If the master wants to stay as long as possible, he can come back as late as possible, and if he wants to stay as little as possible, he can come back early. We have been back for a few days, what can we talk about? Besides, we are not going out shopping. We can find it by sending someone to look for it. After traveling so far, we can write a letter to ask when we will come back. Maybe there will be more people. It's still early for the letter to come back, why did you bother to come?" Xiaozhen has been feeling a little idle these days. He doesn't dare to offend and doesn't want to pay attention to it. He has also been teased a few times. Now he sees Hehua coming back. , as if he had seen his mother’s child, he vomited all the unpleasantness of the past few days.
"Okay, I know everything!" Hehua patted Xiaozhen's hand comfortingly, "You did a good job guarding the house this time. I'll reward you when you come back in the evening. Now go to the kitchen and tell them to pack a few more dishes. Invite them to come over and have a meal together.”
"Grandma..." Xiao Zhen was a little unhappy when he heard this, "How do you think of yourself as a serious relative? They are just here to catch the autumn wind. Grandma really treats them as a piece of cake?"
"Don't talk nonsense!" Hehua's face suddenly became serious, "I know you are angry and wronged, so you can just act coquettishly and complain to me, but that is a relative of my family. No matter far or near, he is the master, no matter good or bad. It's not our turn to make irresponsible remarks. Go down and repeat this to the rest of the family. As long as their family is my relative, you two must keep your mouth shut, whether in front of others or in public. Queen, if I know who is gossiping, I will kick them out immediately!"
Seeing He Hua's expression change, Xiao Zhen didn't dare to say anything. He quietly went down to give orders to the cooks, and then hurriedly passed on He Hua's words. Because of He Hua's determined attitude, the servants who had loosened up a lot during the New Year also They all cheered up. They had already prepared a lot of dishes because Qi Jintang and He Hua had returned home. Now they thought about adding a few more and put together a table of fifteen dishes and one soup. The kitchen was busy nervously. stand up.
There are a lot of things that need to be dealt with here in Hehua. This house is not big to begin with. There are three families in the two small courtyards at the back. The servants of the two newly bought families don't know where to place them yet, and Xiaoxiu is looking for them. It was bought by others, and Hehua only made the final check. Before I could take a closer look and talk, I was a little upset when I saw that there were a lot of people piled up in the flower hall, so I asked Xiaozhen to lead them to the second entrance. Across the courtyard, I happened to go to the wing room twice to settle down temporarily. I said I would go back to clean up the house and put things in place tonight. Someone would bring dinner to me in a while, so I didn’t need to come over and wait for instructions. As for what I will do in the future, I will talk about it tomorrow.
Just when he was about to send these people away, he looked at the piles of boxes in the back room and left a few men behind, asking Miao'er to take the lead and put everything into the warehouse first.
Hong Yuan came back not long after. As soon as Qi Jintang's carriage entered the city gate, everyone naturally knew that the county magistrate was back. His family also heard the news at the inn and hurriedly changed their clothes and prepared to come over. It was just in time to go out. They met Hong Yuan who went to pick them up. Hearing that Mrs. Qi had arrived home, he hurriedly called for people to pick up the relatives. Everyone was so happy that they were all sitting in the front hall.
Hehua heard the words and got up and went to the study to find Qi Jintang. When he got home, he carried the pile of pictures and information to the study to clean up. Hearing that his distant cousin's family had arrived, he reluctantly put down the things in his hands. .
As soon as the two people walked out from behind the screen, they saw a black shadow jumping in front of them. Hehua was so frightened that he took a step back. The man grabbed Qi Jintang's hand and said repeatedly: "Oh, eldest nephew, this is the first time our uncle and nephew meet. , look at it, oh, you look exactly like your father. oh, my father and your father had a very good relationship back then. Later, my family moved and we moved around less. In the blink of an eye, my eldest nephew has grown so big. Now he has become an eldest man. There is really smoke rising from the ancestral graves of our Lao Qi family. After I found out the news, I specially burned the paper graves for my father. My father knew that my eldest nephew was so promising, so Everyone has to smile..."! ! !
