Mrs. Dong saw her daughter turning back as if she was looking for someone, "Jiajia, what are you looking at?"

Mingjia shook her head quickly, "Mom, I'm not looking for anything, let's go in first!"

The moment Mingjia turned her head, she winked in Chengwen's direction. Chengwen immediately nodded in understanding, turned around and walked back to look for Ye Liangsheng.

Ming Jia helped Mr. Dong walk into the government office. After walking a few steps, she saw Cheng Si standing in the corridor. Mingjia hadn't seen Cheng Si for a long time, and she was very friendly when she did.

"Uncle Cheng Si, long time no see! I thought you went out with my dad!" Mingjia greeted Cheng Si happily.

Cheng Si was also very happy to see Ming Jia. Just when he wanted to say hello to Ming Jia, he heard Ming Jia's words and suddenly felt embarrassed and his face changed.

"Ahem~! Long time no see, Master Mingjia!"

Mingjia, who was in excitement, didn't notice anything strange about Cheng Si. Dong raised his eyes and looked at Cheng Si without saying anything, and took Mingjia all the way to her yard.

This time Mingjia's yard is completely arranged in the front yard. To the outside world, Mingjia is the second son of the Xiao family and is already ten years old. He must be separated to live alone.

Mrs. Dong really hoped that Mingjia would live in the backyard for a while before moving to the front yard. The thought of my daughter living alone in the front yard is a little sad.

Ming Jia looked at Mrs. Dong who was about to cry again, and quickly comforted her, "Mom! I promise to go to the backyard to accompany you every day when I open my eyes!"

Mingjia looked at her tearful and pregnant mother and asked, "Mom, is there a sentimental Sister Lin in your belly?" Mingjia remembered that Mrs. Dong didn't like to cry anymore.

When this topic came up, Dong immediately stopped wiping tears. He said with some uncertainty: "I also think it's a girl. This child is very lazy and seldom moves, much like you when you were a child!"

Mingjia...there's nothing wrong with being like her. I have to be lazy like her!

Mrs. Yan and Mrs. Shui worked together to pack and organize the things Mingjia brought back, many of which were gifts from Mingjia to her parents and baby.

Mrs. Dong liked the embroidered handkerchief and the quilt for the child that Mingjia brought back. "Grandma Shui and I have also made several quilts, but none of them are as exquisite as the one you gave me."

Mingjia smiled helplessly, watching Mr. Dong praise herself mindlessly.

The embroidery she ordered in Tonglin County was definitely much better than the ones in Northwest Sichuan Province, but it was still inferior compared to Mrs. Shui's craftsmanship.

Moreover, this is Dianzhou! There are many tribes who are good at embroidery. Ming Jia just saw many women on the street with very beautiful patterns on their clothes.

From what Dong said, she was praising the embroidery as if Ming Jia had embroidered it herself.

It wasn't until the mother-in-law in the kitchen came to ask if the meal was ready that Dong reluctantly put down the pile of gifts from Mingjia.

Mingjia followed Dong to the backyard for lunch, and Dong kept picking up food for Mingjia. "You should eat more. There are cooks from Dianzhou in the house and some we brought from Qu County."

Speaking of different chefs, Mrs. Dong also explained to Mingjia: "The dishes in Dianzhou are very different from those in the northwest. I asked the kitchen to cook them according to your previous taste at noon. I will add a few more dishes in the evening and you can try them too." Try Dianzhou cuisine!”

Mingjia nodded while eating the food! All right! She was looking forward to it.

Seeing Ming Jia enjoying her meal, Mrs. Dong unknowingly ate an extra half bowl of rice. Mrs. Shui looked on and breathed a sigh of relief quietly. As expected, the young lady is back!

Originally, after lunch, Mrs. Dong wanted to take a nap. But I don't know whether Ming Jia was excited to come back or because she ate half a bowl of extra rice, but Dong just couldn't sleep.

Finally, he simply got up and went to the front yard to see Mingjia. Mingjia was lying on a new bed in her new yard, new room, and Mrs. Yan was sitting on a small stool in the corner of the room, doing needlework.

Suddenly, Granny Yan noticed someone slowly approaching the door of the room. Granny Yan quickly stood up to see who it was, and found her wife pushing the door open and walking in quietly.

Mrs. Dong waved her hand to Mrs. Yan not to move, she just came to see Mingjia. Mr. Dong gently sat beside Ming Jia's bed and looked at her little daughter whom she hadn't seen for five months. She couldn't get enough of her.

When Mingjia woke up, she saw her mother sitting beside her bed. "Mom, you didn't take a break!"

Dong stretched out his hand and gently pulled Mingjia up, "I lay down for a while, but I really couldn't fall asleep, so I didn't lie down again. How was it? You slept well!"

Mingjia nodded. Although everything around her was brand new, she just felt like she was home, and she felt at ease and slept very soundly.

At this time, Mrs. Yan had already brought water, and Mingjia got up and washed her face first.

Dong came over and said to Mingjia: "Now that you're awake, come and walk with me in the yard!"

Mrs. Shui and Mrs. Yan both felt that Mrs. Dong was too thin, so they would accompany Mrs. Dong to walk around the yard every afternoon, hoping that Mrs. Dong would eat half a bowl more rice or be stronger.

Today, Mingjia came back, and Mr. Dong wanted to take Mingjia to visit the yard together.

While taking Mingjia around the courtyard, Mrs. Dong quietly introduced the state government offices in Dianzhou to Mingjia.

There are currently four families living in the backyard of the government office.

The magistrate of Dianzhou, named Yang Tingxuan, was the third son of the Dingyuan Hou Mansion in the capital. He had never passed the imperial examination, but his knowledge and ability were very good.

Yang Tingxuan's first wife stayed in the capital with her two sons and one daughter. Now she only has two concubines in the county government office.

Because the mistress of the house is not here, the two concubines live in one courtyard, and Yang Tingxuan lives in another courtyard. In other words, Yang Tingxuan, as the highest official of Dianzhou, only occupied two courtyards.

Meng Tongpan's family also lived in the northwest corner. Meng Tongpan's ancestral home was in nearby Lizhou, but because Meng Tongpan was the eldest son in the family, his parents also followed Meng Tongpan in office.

"Meng Tongpan and his wife were a young couple, and they went through hardships together. Now they only have one son and one daughter." Mrs. Dong seemed to like Meng Tongpan's family very much.

The last family is Counselor Song's family who lives in the south. Dianzhou is not only a border state, but also a state and city where many tribes live. Each tribe has some military strength, so Dianzhou has a special staff position.

Mrs. Dong was a little unhappy with Counselor Song's family, and whispered to Ming Jia: "There are four doors in the backyard of the government office plus the side door. Basically, each family does not disturb each other. There are many family affairs in the south, so I try my best not to provoke them. "

Mingjia listened silently and remembered it carefully. Mingjia did not expect that her mother would be so sensitive to these things now. She not only remembered the family members of each family, but also understood some complex relationships very well.

Seeing her daughter's admiring eyes, Mrs. Dong felt a little proud, and finally decided to admit that she had cheated in advance. "Your master, Mr. Yuan, prepared information for your father and me, and we memorized it!"

Mingjia's eyes widened instantly, "Awesome! My master!"
