Concubine Raiders: Postscript
Xu Lingyi's Spring Festival in the second year of Xining was a bit more lively than in previous years.
First, Xu Lingyi sealed the Crown Prince Taibao and became the first person in the Great Zhou Dynasty to be both Sangu and Sangong. Then Xu Lingkuan, who had been in the Imperial Guard for more than 20 years, was promoted to the Five Cities Soldier and Ma Si as the capital commander. Although he was in charge of chores, he was a decent member of the third rank. When the huā lamp of the eighteenth Lantern Festival fell, Xu Sizhen sealed the fourth rank hereditary affair again.
The cyan curtains in front of Xufumen are endlessly lined with silver dragon embroidery belts and plain lion head embroidery belts.
Xu Sijin couldn't help but touched his head: "This is mid-February, why are there so many people?"
He wore a black coarse cloth robe of crow cyan, and he drove day and night. Although he looked a little gray, his eyes were piercing, and his brows showed a bit of majesty. Ordinary people. Along the way, people are eye-catching.
"Didn't you say that Master Hou, Master Five, and Master Seven are all elevated?" Seeing the familiar black-lacquered copper nailed door of Xu Mansion, Chang'an couldn't help showing a happy smile, "It must be someone who came to congratulate! "
He helped Xu Sijin lead the horse." Although he was dressed up with Xu Sijin, Xu Sijin's expression was relaxed and confident. His expression was a little more cautious and careful. The two were tall and handsome, but everyone's eyes were still the first time. Falling on Xu Sijin.
Someone immediately discovered Xu Sijin.
"Six Young Masters, Six Young Masters...,..." The steward on duty in front of the door left behind the staff and stewards who came to send the greetings with a smirk, and ran over, "Oh! Young Master Six!" The steward said as he hurriedly bent over to salute Xu Sijin, "What about the younger one...,..." Without a word, he gently propped his mouth, "Look at my stinky mouth. When I saw my uncle, I wouldn’t say anything if I’m happy. Now I can’t call you "Six Young Master, now, let’s call it, Uncle Wu Jin,", and then, he bent over to bow to Xu Sijin. Old age! I wish you all good luck and advancement..."
He hadn't spoken yet, and the doors over there ran over.
"Uncle, little dog, I wish you New Year!"
"Uncle, the younger one is auspicious, do you remember, the younger sister" is the errand of the Fourth Madam, and the younger one is giving you New Year greetings! "
It's screaming, like a vegetable market.
Xu Sijin laughed, and told Chang'an: "All rewards!"
Chang'an smiled and took out the purse that he had already prepared, embroidered with the wishful thinking pattern to reward people, and gave it to anyone.
Someone immediately said: "Oh, isn't this the Chang'an brother of the general manager? It's the person next to your uncle. If this is on the street, I won't recognize it!"
Chang'an smiled slightly without saying much.
The aides and managers who came to send worship stickers were all elite, so they gathered around and waited for the servants of the Xu family to be quieter, and then straightened their clothes and stepped forward to salute Xu Sijin.
Xu Sijin spoke to these people politely.
The sensitive young man rushed to report to Mrs. Tai, Eleven Niang, and Xu Lingyi.
In a short while" Director Bai, Xu Sizhen, Xu Sijie and others all greeted him.
"Sixth brother!" Xu Sizhen was full of surprise, "Didn't you say that you won't be able to come back until late February? Why did you get home on the tenth day?"
"Hurry up!" Xu Sijin said with a smile, and met with Xu Sichen and Xu Sijie." He pointed to the seven or eight carriages behind him, "You are here to bring things for everyone. You ask someone to clean up, I Go see my mother and grandmother first! "
"Masters, go and work!" Manager Bai stood up thoughtfully, "I'll be here with Chang'an!"
Xu Sijin nodded, and instructed Chang'an to say, "Give the things to Manager Bai, and you can go back and rest! The family is thinking about you too", and then go to the backyard side by side with Xu Sizhen and Xu Sijie.
"How is it? Are you okay in Guizhou?" Xu Sijie asked him with a smile, "Looking at your spirit, it seems pretty good!"
"Of course." Xu Sijin smiled, "Do you think I am the one who suffers a lot?"
Before the voice was over, two people came to face each other: "Brother Six, Brother Six..."
Xu Siyu and Xu Sicheng.
"Little seven, little eight!" Xu Sijin greeted him, and embraced Xu Siyu's shoulder affectionately, "I'm also afraid that you have already set off for Henan, but I didn't expect you to be still at home! I heard that you were hereditary. Congratulations!" As he said, let go, looked up and down Xu Siyu, teasing him, "Okay, don't you three days, I have to take a look." He smiled, "I'll be here later. Chun Xilou will give you a congratulatory wine." Then he looked at Xu Sizhen, Xu Sijie, and Xu Sicheng who were present, and said boldly, "When the time comes, everyone will go to accompany us, we will not be drunk or return." The uppermost person is solemn. Inadvertently revealed.
The younger brother who had to take care of him yesterday seems to have suddenly become taller, not only making his extended wings become very small, but also faintly looking after him in reverse...,...The sudden change makes Xu Sizhen was a little uncomfortable, looking at his younger brother with complicated eyes, and was momentarily silent.
Xu Sicheng looked at Xu Sijin's eyes but was full of admiration.
After the sixth elder brother enters Beijing to choose the Shuan, he will follow the sixth elder brother to Guizhou! The sixth brother is upright and straightforward. He is a real man, and he has to be like the sixth brother.
"Isn't it drunk or not!" Xu Sijie smiled and yelled at Xu Sijin, "You be careful mother knows you lose your temper!"
Xu Si smiled carefully.
Two men who were dressed in the costumes of Grade 4 military attachés walked over and saluted them in groups: "Isn't this the son of the world and the master of the seventh..." His eyes fell on Xu Sijin's body, and he couldn't help but shake. Busily said: "Master Xu, did not expect to meet you here? You just came back from Guizhou?" Busy self-introduction: "I am a colleague of Xishan Daying, and I used to be a colleague with Master Lin. This is My good friend, Ma Si Beicheng, commander of the Five Cities Soldier, Sun Ming."
Xu Sijin smiled and nodded.
Zhou Jing enthusiastically invited him: "A chance encounter is worse than a chance meeting. It shows that we have a destiny with an adult. If you don’t dislike it, one day my brother Sun and I will please you in Chunxi Building. Please be sure to give us a face. ." Then said, "We are all from the Imperial Guard, and we are friends with Uncle Lingwu. This time we are here to congratulate Commander Xu on the promotion!"
"Let's talk about it then!" Xu Sijin smiled politely, "My pick is in mid-March, and I will come back early." I just want to have a few more days of filial piety under the knees of the elders! "Not only does it lose the enthusiasm among colleagues, but also has the reservation of the superior.
"Of course, that is of course!" The two were busy and respectful, but their eyes couldn't hide their disappointment.
Someone came slowly over here. And also wearing a red official uniform. "The taro who accompanies me is like Xu Lingkuan.
Xu Sijin is an exciting spirit.
The red official uniform, at least the third grade, accompanied by Xu Lingkuan." It must be a figure of real power. If you encounter this, it will take a long time.
He wants to see his mother sooner!
With a flash of thought, Xu Sijin winked at Xu Si and motioned for him to come out and entertain Zhou Jing and Sun Ming." While smiling, he said to the two of them: "Two adults, I just entered the door. Before I could greet my father and mother, I lost my company! "
The two are also savvy people. Before Xu Sizhen could speak, they already said: "Uncle Wu Jin, you have taken a step ahead, and we are about to leave!"
Seeing the red official uniform getting closer and closer to him, Xu Sijin hurriedly confessed a few words, leaving his brother and younger brother and hurried to the main courtyard.
Xu Sizhen and the others were taken aback, and Xu Lingkuan's voice sounded in their ears: "It seemed like Brother Jin just now..."
The brothers turned around in a hurry and said "Yes", Xu Sijin has already entered the Chuhuā gate" and almost bumped into Mother Song who was about to go out to find out about him.
"Oh!" Mother Song pulled Xu Sijin excitedly, "Madam is thinking of you..."
It's best to go to the mother's room as soon as possible, so as not to be called!
"I know, I know!" Xu Si didn't wait for her to finish, and hurried to the front house.
Mother Song followed him with a smile.
Although it is early spring, the weather in Yanjing is still very cold, and the Begonia and the grapevines in the yard have not yet appeared new green." They are bare, but in Xu Siyu's eyes, they feel very kind.
The little maid came back shouting "Six Young Masters" and helped him hold the curtain.
Eleven Niang walked out immediately.
"Brother Jin!" Tears of joy were in her eyes.
"Mother!" Xu Sijin hugged his mother, "How are you?"
"I'm fine! I'm fine!" Eleven Niang also hugged her son.
There was a soft cough behind him.
"Since you are back, let's sit in the house!"
Xu Si would like to follow the prestige and see his father's somewhat serious face but a flash of joy.
"Father!" He stepped forward to salute Xu Lingyi.
Xu Ling nodded lightly, "turned around and entered the house.
Father is still the same.
No matter how happy you are, you have to keep your face straight.
Xu Sijin makes faces at his mother.
Eleven mothers stared at him.
He pursed the corner of his mouth, "Followed his father into the house.
The father and son sat down on the big kang next to the window in the west room, and the eleven mother helped them to pour tea.
"I'll come" I'll come! "Xu Sijin hurriedly got up to take his mother's tea, his eyes fell on his mother's face, and found that her mother was a little rounder than when he left, and her complexion was better.
He was about to tease his mother, and there was a baby crying like a cat in the inner room.
Eleven Mother smiled apologetically at him, and whispered: "It's your sister!" hurriedly into the inner room.
Xu Sijin was sluggish for a moment: "Sister!"
Why no one has told him.
Xu Lingyi gave an uncomfortable "um".
Xu Sijin jumped up and said, "Hey, when did you take in your concubine again?" Fengyan stared at his father.
Xu Lingyi gaped.
Xu Sijin has said: "Otherwise, where's my sister from?"
"What nonsense?" Eleven Niang came out holding her 62-day-old daughter, and said grotesquely, "It's your sister!"
Xu Sijin was shocked and pointed to Eleven Mother: "You, when did you give birth to your younger sister? How come I don’t know?" He said, but he couldn’t help but play with the big red Bai Ying in Eleven Mother’s arms. The engraved swaddle looked over.
Eleven mother hesitated for a while: "Aren't you shooting targets in those days?" She showed her daughter to her son, "You went home and rested for two days and then left. I never had a chance to tell you... ,..."
Xu Sijin pouted dissatisfiedly.
The opportunity was found by man, and it was not given by God... But as Eleven Niang approached, his gaze fell on the swaddling girl who was looking at him with big dark eyes. Baby face.
She is so young.
The face is probably not as big as his palm.
The black crow with hair is like midnight, the lips are red like cherries, and the skin is delicate and white like the first snow. Especially the eyes that looked at him may be the reason why they just cried, and they also contain a little water. , Clear and clear like the joy of the mountain stream" makes people's hearts clear instantly.
Xu Si couldn't help but stretch out his finger to touch her cheek.
The cocoon on the belly of the finger looked so rough against her skin that was about to break.
His hand can't help but shrink.
For the first time, I was afraid that she would be hurt by myself. I was afraid that because of me, her delicate and tenderness would be destroyed, and a little awe was born.
Eleven mothers smiled.
Father and son are the same.
Xu Lingyi still dare not hug her daughter today, for fear of accidentally breaking her to pieces. Unlike brother Jin, who dared to throw it into the air while carrying it......
She handed her daughter to her son: "Do you want to hug?"
"No, no!" Xu Sijin stepped back two steps, feeling like sweat coming out of his forehead.
Xu Lingyi felt the same way and was busy helping his son: "Okay, you just came back, and your body is gray. Let's freshen up first. Let's go to see your grandmother."
Xu Sijin heaved a sigh of relief and glanced at his sister, only then did he respectfully respond.
There was a sudden noise outside.
The people in the room were a little surprised.
The voice is getting louder, getting closer and closer to the main house, and you can faintly hear words like "You can't go in".
Eleven Niang frowned.
Someone drew in.
"Xu Sijin, you promised me to take me to your house, how could you leave me to those stewards!"
An eleven or two-year-old girl stood in front of Xu Lingkuan and Eleven Mother.
The two were dumbfounded.
The girl is young, but she has delicate features and smart eyes. She wears a double snail bun, wears a navy blue embroidered peach huā, but hangs a pair of silver horn collars around her neck. It's beautiful, but it looks a little nondescript.
But the two of them are not ordinary, and they immediately recognize that the pair of horns Xiang Ran is Miao ornaments.
This little girl" is afraid of being a Miao girl.
The two couldn't help but exchange a look, and then looked towards Xu Si.
Xu Sijin is not worried, but has a calm look: "Amu, I am not telling you, you are waiting outside, when I give my parents, I will naturally introduce you. This is Yanjing" but not Guizhou. You also promised me that you would do whatever you like. "
The girl Xu Sijin called Amu immediately turned ashamed. She lowered her head and murmured: "It's your housekeeper, saying that I can't enter your house or stay in the kitchen. I have to arrange another Go and live in a house called Jinyu Alley..." She said, raising her head, looking at Xu Sijin with tears, "I, I'm afraid!"
Xu Sijin gave her a helpless look, and then hurriedly explained to her mother as if afraid of her parents’ misunderstanding: "Mother, this is Amu girl, the daughter of Sinan chieftain Shabao. I am in Guizhou, De Shabao. A lot of care, this time in Beijing, Amu clamored to come to Yanjing, I will bring her in..."
Without waiting for Xu Lingkuan and Eleven Niang to say anything, Amu had already cleverly stepped forward to salute, shouting "Abo" and "Zaimu".
Xu Lingyi's face was a little blue, but she reluctantly nodded towards Amu. Eleven Niang also felt that this matter was a bit inappropriate, thinking of a girl who came to Yanjing with her son for thousands of miles, Xu Lingyi's His complexion is already ugly, and if his attitude is cold and blunt, he will be too unkind, and his son’s appearance is not as affectionate as this little girl...
"When you come, you will be a guest!" Eleven Niang smiled and told Amber, "Go and clean up the place where Brother Jin lived and let Girl Amu rest."
When Amu heard this, he immediately bent his eyes with a smile, and said straight to Eleven Niang: "You are so kind, Amu!" Then boldly stepped forward and looked at the child in her arms, "Is this the sister of Master Xu? She looks pretty? But she doesn't look like Master Xu." She said, and looked at Eleven Niang carefully, "Like Eminem. She must be a beauty when she grows up!"
Eleven Niang could not help but smile when she heard someone praise her daughter, and said: "Amu is also a Liliang girl."
"Really?" Amu listened and touched his face happily, "Does Eminem think I'm pretty? My father said the same. But Master Xu said that people like me are in their house. More often than not, grab a lot of them." There was a bit of anger in his tone.
Eleven mothers can't help but look at her son.
Xu Sijin was embarrassed and gave Amu a fierce look: "My mother told you to go down and rest, don't you understand? Why are so many words!"
Amu was not afraid, made a grimace at Xu Sijin, and said to Eleven Niang, "Amu, I took a bath to help you bring your sister. I have seven nieces, I can take children. "This followed Amber, who was full of worry.
Xu Sizhen walked in immediately: "Mother, Lu Shangshu came to visit the fifth uncle. I heard that the sixth brother is back, and I want to see the sixth brother!"
"I was still caught by him!" Xu Sijin muttered to his father and mother in a low voice, "Daddy and mother, I'll come as soon as I go."
Xu Lingyi was distracted by the sudden appearance of Amu, and said with a cold face.
Xu Sijian hurriedly pulled Xu Sijin out.
"What did you do" brought a Miao girl back. "While he walked out with Xu Sizheng, he said in a low voice, "Daddy will never allow you to marry a Miao girl." "
"Who said I'm going to marry her!" Xu Sijin was still full of grievances. "When I was out of Guizhou, I found Amu hiding in my carriage. She was found to have not eaten for five days and five nights. .
I'm going to send someone to send her back, and she will give me life and death. She is so clever that ordinary people simply can't stand her. I'm really afraid that something will happen to her...otherwise, "Why did I tell his dad." Then, as if thinking of something, he hurriedly pulled Xu Sijian's sleeves, "Fourth brother, Yanjing Are you very familiar with this big family?"
"Usually they are familiar!" Xu Si looked at his younger brother, wondering, "What are you going to do?"
"No, nothing!" Xu Sijin said hesitantly, "That's when I was in the city, I saw someone coming in with incense... Across the carriage, listening to a good voice..." A touch of people appeared on his face. Suspicious Hongyun "rushed into her carriage..."
Xu Sizhen was dumbfounded: "You, won't you be?"
Speaking out, Xu Sijin was relieved that "it is here, it won't be worse than this", he smiled and put on Xu Sijia's shoulder: "Fourth brother, I am in a rural place like Guizhou. It’s not like you were born in Yanjing, you know everyone who grew up in Yanjing, so please help me! I will make you a few lanterns from Guizhou Miao people at that time to ensure that it is very different from the Yanjing’s. !"
Xu Sizhen heard the lantern, and his heart moved, but he soon showed awe-inspiring expression: "No. Parents order, match words. Don't do this kind of private grant."
"Oh, isn't it possible for me to do it?" Xu Sijin urged Xu Sichen to say, "You are my brother, and these little things are not busy with me. Who else can help me? Besides, I am not engaged. In regretting the marriage, Miss Wang is not a person who has a husband's family...,...
"Miss Wang?" Xu Sijian grabbed Xu Sijian's footsteps, "Which Miss Wang? Have you already figured out people?"
Xu Si likes to smile: "It's the younger sister of your good friend Wang Yun! The eldest daughter of Lord Wang!"
"No!" Xu Sizhen shook his head like a drum drum. "Daddy said, I'm going to find you a general girl. Their family is a civil servant. Moreover, Lord Wang was born in a family with only one son and one daughter. People are single and weak, don't talk about daddy, even I will not agree!"
"You don't agree..." Xu Sijin hugged his chest and said slowly, "Then, then I have to come by myself!"
"You, you..." Xu Sichen didn't know what to say. After holding back for a long time, he said, "Don't forget, you are now the General Soldier of Guizhou, a member of the third rank, not a brother, Brother Cheng, what has happened, everyone will only think that they are still young and ignorant. If you make any jokes, where can the faces of father and mother be put?"
"Then you can help me!" Xu Sijin said indifferently, "Otherwise, how would I know what to do?"
This younger brother has been very strong since he was a child. When he grows up, he will go smoothly. If he gets up, he might really rush to Wang's house to recommend himself... Xu Sichen thought of Xu Sijin being left out by his mother in the wind and rain when he was a child. I didn't beg for mercy for an hour, and I only felt a headache: "You let me think about it, you let me think about it!" The tone has softened.
Xu Sijin's eyes flashed a sly, smiled and took Xu Sijian's shoulders: "Good brother, whether I can get married or not depends on you!"
Xu Sijian's father's cold face suddenly appeared in his mind.
He couldn't help but shiver.
Xu Lingyi and Shi Niang are worrying about Amu over there.
"As long as my son likes it, I like it too." Eleven Niang patted his daughter gently, "But is Amu willing to leave Guizhou? Brother Chen can't stay in Guizhou forever!"
Daughter and son are totally two temperaments~IndoMTL.com~One is naughty, the other is docile.
Xu Lingyi twirled around the room with his hands behind his back: "What does he like? He is young, and he knows what he likes and what he doesn't like. This matter cannot be determined by his temper. Marry a Miao. If someone is a daughter-in-law, I absolutely disagree..."
"Life is alive, but just a few short years. It's rare to meet someone who is in love with each other. If you like my brother, I will agree." Eleven Niang ignored his anger and slowly hugged the asleep The daughter went into the inner room, "Didn't you say, what kind of daughter-in-law would you like to marry? Let me choose?"
Xu Lingyi looked at his wife's back and was speechless for a while, wondering how to make his wife change her mind, and she was still in the dark about the troubles Xu Sijian had encountered...
