After the two had dinner, they motioned for the girls to go down, and then talked about the twins again. Zhulan was worried, "Jiang An can't return to the country unless he fakes his death. He has reached his current position and will not return easily!"
Zhou Shuren tugged at his beard, "As long as nothing is revealed, the emperor will not let him back unless he annexes this country."
Bamboo orchid, "..."
The emperor had already annexed them if he wanted to. Now annexation is a burden. The grasslands and the Northeast are two gold-devouring behemoths. In the days of food shortage, the court has no spare capacity to bear the burden on the surrounding small countries.
Zhulan calculated the age of the twins, "They are not young anymore. According to their age, they should have gotten engaged long ago. They can't come back now. They can't stay abroad without getting married!"
She felt suffocated when she thought about her grandson getting married abroad and having to marry someone she didn't like for the sake of the country!
Zhou Shuren was also heartbroken after hearing this, "These two brats."
Zhulan, "Tomorrow your eldest daughter will definitely come to me to cry."
Zhou Shuren, "... .."
As Zhulan said, Xuemei came back without even eating the next day. Her eyes were severely swollen. Zhulan motioned to Qingxue to bring another bowl of wontons over, "If you don't have the appetite to eat, just eat with me for a while." ”
Xuemei's nasal voice was a bit strong and she didn't sleep much last night. Thinking of her two sons, she couldn't help crying, "Yeah."
After breakfast, Zhulan waited for the table to be cleared, leaving only Qingxue, and then said: "You think that your two children are on a mission abroad, will it make you feel better?"
Xuemei's nasal voice became thicker, "They are different from the second brother. The second brother is not in danger. If they are not good, they will die."
Zhulan, "Who says it's not dangerous for your second brother to go on a mission? It's dangerous for everyone."
Xuemei pursed her lips and remained silent, tears streaming down her face silently. She just felt uncomfortable. She was a good person to her two eldest sons.
Zhulan exclaimed, "Stop crying. I will cry too in a moment."
She looked extremely uncomfortable, her daughter was crying and she felt sorry for her, and she was thinking about her two grandchildren, which made her feel even more uncomfortable.
Xuemei wiped her tears with a handkerchief, "According to their age, they should all get married."
Zhulan, "I told your father yesterday, okay, don't worry about it."
The twins have brought benefits to the Jiang family. Otherwise, even with Shuren's operation, the places Jiang Du and Mu Fan go will not be very good. Now they go to good places, and the twins also contribute to this.
Xuemei couldn't cry anymore at home. Her mother-in-law and father-in-law didn't know Jiang Ping was back yet. She was afraid of being discovered by her mother-in-law, so she could only come to talk to her mother.
After a while, Linxi came, "Grandma, I made an appointment with cousin Yuwen. Hey, aunt, why are you crying?"
Xuemei's eyes were extremely dry and her smile was stiff, "I miss your twin cousin."
Linxi didn't know how to comfort her. The twin cousins had been away from home for too long, so she said dryly: "When they come back, my aunt will definitely beat my cousins to see if they dare to make you sad."
Xuemei, "Okay, listen to Linxi."
Yuwen came over and asked, confirming that her eldest aunt was okay before going out with Linxi.
Xuemei came back to her senses, "That's not right. Why did Yuwen go out on her own initiative?"
Zhulan, "Because her father is well-informed."
Xuemei, "Huh??"
Zhulan didn't say that Yuwen fell in love with Gu Sheng, so she interrupted: "Do Jiang Du and Jiang Miao have letters from home?"
Xuemei felt better when she thought about her children. "A letter from home was just sent back a few days ago. They have settled down and have two children. Let's not worry."
She also sent some dried fish to wait for the seafood to come back. She didn't send it to her mother, mainly because it was not a good thing.
Zhulan, "It's good that the two children are fine. I'm just worried that the two children won't be able to stand the weather at the seaside and will get sick."
There was a smile on Xuemei's face, "I brought them a lot of ready-made pills."
"That's good."
In Zhangzhou, Yushuang and her two children were sitting on the edge of the field picking wild vegetables. People were growing herbs in the fields. Yushuang was a little tired after picking a basket of wild vegetables.
Liu Feng was worried as Niang San came over, "Are you tired?"
Yushuang nodded, "Do you want to take a rest?"
Liu Feng was also tired. He was wearing coarse clothes today and had been planting medicinal herbs for a while. He didn't mind the dirty ground and sat down next to his wife. "This year, there are a lot more cultivated fields in each village. Life will get better and better."
Yushuang looked at the children in the field, "It was hard to see new clothes before, but now many children have new clothes."
Liu Feng said with a smile, "The days are richer, and the county is no longer lifeless."
People have money in their hands, there are many more shops in the county, and there are more stalls selling snacks.
After Liu Feng didn't plant for a while, the people stopped letting him do it. It wasn't because he didn't do well in planting, but because he didn't want Liu Feng to get tired because planting herbs gave the people money, and Liu Feng was very popular among the people.
As a result, there were a lot of wild vegetables on Yushuang's carriage back to the city, and someone even caught two fish specially.
Yushuang chuckled, "These wild vegetables can be eaten for a long time."
Liu Feng also smiled, "If you can't eat it, dry it and eat it in the winter."
Yushuang said, "Okay, I will send some to the capital when the time comes. This is all out of love for you."
Liu Feng was a little embarrassed, "It's all what I should do."
Yushuang was proud. She reached out and held her husband's rough palm, "You are my pride."
Liu Feng hugged his wife. He knew that without the Yue family, it would be difficult for him to be a good official. He was able to be so successful thanks to the Yue family, and he also thanked his wife for their support and companionship.
Linxi drank two cups of tea at the Beijing Tea House, "Cousin, did you go to the wrong place?"
"No, my father can't make a mistake."
Gu Sheng was not on guard against his father, and his father asked him casually. Gu Sheng directly said the name of the teahouse!
Linxi suddenly pulled her cousin's sleeve, "Is that the one who got off the carriage?"
Yuwen saw that they were indeed brothers from the Gu family. The two entered the teahouse. After a while, another carriage came. A woman got out of the carriage. Behind the woman was a girl. The girl was a bit older. She must not have gotten married at this age. There is a story.
Yuwen called the waiter to ask a few questions. After a while, the girl came over and said, "Master Gu is downstairs for tea."
Linxi touched the whip and said, "Is his brother attracted to him?"
"It should be, otherwise I wouldn't be alone."
Linxi lamented, "Children without parents have to worry about it themselves."
In less than a quarter of an hour, Yuwen and the other two saw the woman and the girl leaving just now, and then two women, an old man and a middle-aged woman, walked out of the box where Gu Sheng was. Yuwen saw the two brothers Gu Sheng personally seeing them off. carriage.
Yuwen smiled, "I know the rules quite well. I found a matchmaker and a matchmaker myself."
Linxi pulled her cousin up, "If she doesn't get up, they will leave."
Yuwen didn't move. "They will come back. Will they leave soon?"
Seeing the two brothers returning to the teahouse, Linxi exclaimed and couldn't help but bump her cousin's shoulder, "You haven't met Gu Sheng a few times, so you know him quite well!"
