The moment they saw his appearance, everyone in Linghou Mansion was certain that the man in front of them was the second master of their mansion.
Mrs. Ling was already tearing up and didn't know what to say, so Mr. Ling had to step forward and look at Father Fang: "What do you think is the way we can verify whether we are relatives?"
Looking at the man in front of him, who looked not much different from himself but whose temperament could be distinguished at a glance, Lord Ling was also a little shocked at this moment. He couldn't help but step forward and pat Father Fang on the shoulder.
Father Fang hesitated for a moment before speaking: "We have the cloth that was used to wrap me. You said I was your child, so you must know the style of the cloth."
Lord Ling didn't know about this, but Madam Ling started to talk about it: "The cloth was blue, and it wasn't very good. It was mainly because we were in Xianyou Town at that time, and the things there weren't that good. There was also a jade pendant..."
After telling him the details of the item and the jade pendant, Fang's father immediately took out the jade pendant. This was because the old woman didn't dare to sell it, so she kept it, and it fell into Fang's father's hands last time.
Everything matched, including the appearance. There was no doubt that Father Fang was Lord Ling's lost brother.
Madam Ling excitedly held Father Fang's hand and said, "My son, I finally found you. That's great. Can you come home with me? Let me take care of you. You've suffered so much over the years."
Looking at the old lady's expectant eyes, Mr. Fang was a kind-hearted man. He would easily feel soft-hearted towards a strange old woman, let alone that she was his own mother.
I agreed immediately: "Okay."
Madam Ling was instantly happy, and even said directly: "Can you call me mother?"
Looking at the old man, Father Fang nodded: "Mom."
"Hey, kid, yell more."
"Mother, mother..."
"Oh, my child, you are finally back." After years of longing, the old lady burst into tears without caring about her image, holding Fang's father's hand tightly and refusing to let go.
Fang Xiaoxi frowned and felt a little sour in her nose. Seeing her father like this, she finally understood that her yard was wasted.
My parents would definitely not be willing to live there. I just hope Da Wu and Xiao Wu can insist on staying with their parents.
After the old lady had cried enough, Fang's father calmed down a lot. He then thought of his wife and pulled Fang's mother in front of the old lady: "Mom, this is my wife. We have four children. This is the second child, Shaoyu. You all know this one, Xiaoxi. Call her."
It was Fang Shaoyu's first time meeting Lord Ling's family, and he had a good impression of them, at least not as repulsive as Fang Xiaoxi. So he stepped forward and said, "Meet grandma."
There is only one boy in the Ling Mansion, that is Ling Shizi. Now there are suddenly three more boys. Don't mention how happy he is. He pulled Fang Shaoyu to look at him and said, "He must look a lot like you when you were a child. I can vaguely see your shadow when you were a child."
She had never seen Fang's father when he was a child, so he was talking about the shadow of Lord Ling's childhood. She felt very relieved. As for Fang Xiaoxi, there were many girls in Lord Ling's mansion, so one more or one less would not make much difference.
But this is the daughter of the youngest son who was just found, so there is still some difference: "Okay, all is well, Xiaoxi, come here."
Fang Xiaoxi walked up to Old Madam Ling and bowed, "Hello, Grandmother."
It's not that Fang Xiaoxi disrespects the elderly, but after seeing the mess in the backyard of Linghou Mansion, she no longer has a good impression of the people in Linghou Mansion. Especially when she met the old lady, she was still supporting a concubine, which made it difficult for her to have a good impression of her.
The old lady didn't care about Fang Xiaoxi's thoughts at all. She liked Fang Xiaoxi only because she loved her. She put the bracelet on Fang Xiaoxi's wrist and said, "This is a gift from your grandmother. There were some unpleasant things before, but it won't happen again in the future."
Fang Xiaoxi just smiled and said nothing, glancing at Nan Nan. Lord Ling had already said goodbye to Nan Nan: "Then, my lord, we will go home first."
Now that they have picked up the person, there is no need to stay in the Bingjian Palace. Nan Nan nodded and looked at Fang Xiaoxi: "Xiaoxi, do you want to go live in the Marquis' Mansion with me?"
In fact, he wanted Fang Xiaoxi to stay in the palace, but it seemed that it was not possible. After all, Fang Xiaoxi's mother had just arrived, and judging from the old lady's expression, Fang Xiaoxi's mother seemed to have not noticed what she had just said to her. So Fang Xiaoxi must be worried.
In fact, after Father Fang introduced Mother Fang, the old lady just glanced at Mother Fang. In her eyes, such a person was indeed not worthy of entering Linghou Mansion. It could only be considered as good luck that she would marry her son. She would definitely find a candidate who could match her son to be her daughter-in-law.
Of course Fang Xiaoxi also saw this matter clearly and found it a little funny. How could she respect such an old man
How could he feel at ease and let his mother enter the Marquis' Mansion when the old lady was eyeing her covetously and who knows what she was planning!
"My mother has finally come to Kyoto, so as her daughter, I naturally have to stay by her side. Don't worry, I will come to attend classes during the day and won't be late."
These days, they followed Qian Jiujiu to learn how to make medicine during the day, and they couldn't stop even after they moved to the Marquis' Mansion.
The group walked towards the door, left the palace, got on the carriage, and headed towards the Marquis's Mansion. At the Marquis's Mansion, because they had known that Father Fang and others were coming, the yard and other things had been prepared long ago, and the carriage arrived at the Marquis's Mansion quickly.
Along the way, the old lady kept holding his hand and talking non-stop, and the relationship between mother and son became closer.
The carriage stopped, and Lord Ling was the first to get off the carriage and helped the old lady down. Father Fang and others also got off the carriage.
Lord Ling smiled and led the man into the mansion. Inside the mansion, the marquis' wife and the rest of the family were waiting in the main hall. They also wanted to see if this person really looked like the marquis.
As they waited for the Marquis to bring the man in, they were all stunned. They really looked alike, but they could be distinguished at a glance. The Marquis looked very imposing, while the Second Master was more honest, and even a little restrained.
The old lady also noticed it, but it was understandable that the youngest son was so restrained since he had just returned home. Everything would be fine when he gained more experience.
The old lady looked at the Marquis's wife with some displeasure in her eyes: "Come over and meet the Second Master."
Prince Ling was also waiting at home today. When he saw this, he followed forward. When Father Fang saw so many people greeting him, he became nervous and at a loss what to do.
The old lady felt even more distressed, and looked at the people below: "Okay, we've seen everyone, you can all go away. They just came back, and they must be very tired. Let's take them to their rooms to rest first. We can talk about anything tomorrow."
Lord Ling nodded: "That's fine. Is the yard ready for my second brother?"
The Marquis's wife immediately answered, "The yard is ready. Second brother, second sister-in-law, come with me."
She was a gentle woman. These people subconsciously chose to ignore Fang's mother, but she was the only one who saw Fang's mother and treated her gently.
Fang Xiaoxi raised her eyebrows. She actually didn’t quite understand what kind of person this Marquis’ wife was. From what she saw so far, she should be a good person.
When they got to the courtyard, Madam Hou started to explain, "This courtyard is the closest to mother's courtyard, so I arranged this courtyard. The courtyard is quite big, just right for my second brother and his wife to live in. As for this child, he is so old, it is not suitable for him to live in the backyard."
The person he was talking about was Fang Shaoyu. Fang Shaoyu looked at Madam Hou and said, "My name is Fang Shaoyu."
Madam Hou smiled and said, "Since you are back home, you should change your name to Ling Shaoyu, right? You will live in the courtyard next to my son. Do you want me to take you to see it first? As for Xiaoxi, I have also arranged a courtyard."
"Xiao Xi is the only legitimate daughter of our Ling family. With a different status, she should naturally live in a better place. Xiao Xi, do you want to stay?"
She had some contact with Fang Xiaoxi, so at least she knew that this kid was not easy to mess with. If she had her own ideas, it would be better to ask.
Fang Xiaoxi smiled and looked at Madam Hou: "Aunt, I will stay. You can arrange a courtyard for me. I will be away during the day and come back to live at night. It is best to be close to my parents. Thank you for your help, aunt."
Lord Ling snorted, "You're welcome."
No one mentioned the matter of that surname, and the matter just passed. However, there was a hint of depression in the marquis's wife's eyes, and no one knew what she was thinking.
After finally having a yard, Fang Xiaoxi looked at her parents and said, "Mom and Dad, you should go to bed early. I'm going to check on my brother's yard."
It was a bit of a mistake. There was no one arranged by her brother's side. It was not until this time that Fang Xiaoxi saw that Chuan Gu was still following him: "Chuan Gu, why are you still here?"
The corner of Kawagu's mouth twitched before he spoke: "Master, I think the Second Young Master doesn't have anyone around him who can be used, so I will serve here first. When the young lady has arranged a candidate, I will go back."
Uh! Fang Xiaoxi blinked. Nan Nan really cared about him. This was indeed the best idea at the moment: "Then I'll trouble you."
Arriving at Fang Shaoyu's yard, Fang Xiaoxi looked around and saw that everything was fine. Then she spoke, "Second brother, Chuan Gu is following you, so please be polite to him. If you have any questions, please ask more. Chuan Gu, I'm troubling you, my second brother."
Fang Shaoyu only now realized that his sister's master was so powerful. How could he dare to really give orders to the servants around the prince? "I know, don't worry. I won't bring shame to our family."
