ordinary people's house

Xiao Yunlang finally went to the banquet to show his face. His son is the protagonist of the day. It would be ridiculous for a father to hide behind. He sat down for a while and went back. Wu spoke, and Qingwu didn't know what expression to put on when he saw him coming.

"what happened?"

The mother was guarding the side door, and hurriedly said: "Just now a group of people said they wanted to find Young Master and Master Lin, so I asked who they were, and those people said they were named Lin."

Xiao Yunlang was taken aback for a moment, and he figured it out after a while, and asked, "But the second brother Yuming from the Lin family is back?"

The mother said awkwardly: "Those people only said their surname was Lin, but they didn't say who it was."

"You take me to see."

Qing Wu also followed, and asked: "Young master, do you want your slaves to go ahead and call Master Lin back?"

Xiao Yunlang stopped in his tracks, hesitantly said: "Go to my room to see if they have packed everything, and then call for some carriages."

"Yes."

Xiao Yunlang was really hesitant. He always knew that the second brother's family would come back, and he also knew that it was only in the past few days, but he hadn't had time to think about it recently because of Ah Yuer and his health.They came suddenly, Xiao Yunlang's first reaction was to send them back to the forest house in Nanluo Lane to resettle.He was still a bit uneasy, and when he followed his mother to the side door, some of the servants were probably curious and kept looking around at the scene outside, Xiao Yunlang subconsciously straightened his clothes and looked out, Xiao Yunlang didn't know what it was. It's a taste - Lin Yulan's second brother, Lin Yuming, should have just turned 40 this year, but the man Xiao Yunlang saw had a weathered face, and he couldn't tell whether it was withered yellow or dark.Yang tucked his hands in his sleeves and sat on the steps without looking back. Xiao Yunlang saw Lin Zhaojing leaning against the wall again. Lin Zhaoru and his two younger sisters were standing beside him. He lowered his head, not knowing what he was thinking.

Xiao Yunlang's voice was a little hoarse, he hesitated for a while, and then said: "Second Brother, Second Sister-in-law, you are back."

Lin Yuming was stunned and said "Yes".

Xiao Yunlang didn't know what to say anymore, but fortunately the coachman had already arrived with the carriage, Xiao Yunlang said: "The house has been packed, I'll ask someone to take you back first."

"Where's Lin Yulan?" Yang asked suddenly.

"He..." Xiao Yunlang said, "Today is our son Ah Yu's full moon day, Yulan will accompany the guests inside, and we will go back later."

There was no emotion in Yang's voice, she turned her body slightly and said, "You guys have a son too."

"Well, it's called Ayu."

The others didn't speak, Xiao Yunlang also fell silent, and after a while he said to the coachman: "Take them to Nanluoxiang."

"Yes."

Lin Yuming and the others silently climbed into the carriage with a large package full of them. Xiao Yunlang watched them go away with a heavy heart. He waited until the carriage disappeared before turning back. I saw Lin Yulan holding the child.

Xiao Yunlang walked over and took the child from him, Lin Yulan went to the stable in silence, and rode away from the uncle's mansion.

Xiao Yunlang carried Ah Yu back to Meiyuan, watched Wen'er and the others gather up the last clothes, they will also go back to Nanluoxiang tonight.After a while, Xiao Yunlang still couldn't calm down, he felt sour and sad, Ah Yu was crying at this moment, Xiao Yunlang couldn't coax him well, but at this time Yuan Ruheng walked in and asked: "What's wrong, Ah Yu?"

Xiao Yunlang handed Ah Yu over, and turned sideways himself.

While coaxing the child, Yuan Ruheng asked, "What's wrong? Didn't you feel fine just now?"

Xiao Yunlang choked up and said, "I did something wrong."

Yuan Ruheng paused, and asked, "Where's Lin Yulan?"

"It's not because of him, it's me, I... Just now, the second elder brother's family who were exiled in the frontier came back. I felt a little embarrassed at the side door. I told them to go to Nanluoxiang, but I didn't invite them to come in and rest. I agreed. Yulan wanted to take good care of them, but..." Xiao Yunlang covered his face and said, "I did something wrong, Yulan went home."

Yuan Ruheng handed Ah Yu to the nanny, told her to carry Ah Yu out, and then sat down beside Xiao Yunlang and said, "Yun Lang, you did nothing wrong, you took them in because they are Lin Yulan's relatives, but they have nothing to do with you after all. , when you were in the Hou Mansion, you were not close, and after a few years of separation, your relationship has become weaker and weaker. Not only my grandmother, but I also don’t agree with you living under the same roof. No one is qualified—including Lin Yulan—they You are not qualified to ask you to take good care of them, this sentence may be a bit selfish, but Yun Lang, you are my cousin, why do you take care of those people? Just for Lin Yulan?"

Xiao Yunlang calmed down, and said: "My elder brother also said something very similar, it was already two or three years ago, the elder brother said that I am the grandson of Lord Su'an, the son of Uncle Jin Jiang, there is no need to compromise anyone, but I am I want to spend the rest of my life with Yulan, I don't want to make Yulan unhappy."

"How could he be unhappy? You've been good enough to him."

"Yulan has been doing some very dangerous things. I can't help him. I should have helped him take care of his family."

Yuan Ruheng was silent for a while, and said: "It's a pity that Lin Yulan was born in the Lin family. The emperor used him at first because he was familiar with the people Lin Yuqing had been in contact with. He is very sensitive. Jiangnan bought tea and found out where Shen Mobai was. Even without an official position, the Habayashi guards were suppressed into obedience, but have you ever thought about it, Yun Lang, he also wants to make things easier for you, he has proved that even if he has no official title, he is still an indomitable man, He is afraid that he is not good enough for you."

Xiao Yunlang looked at him and said in a daze, "Really?"

Yuan Ruheng smiled and said: "Don't put yourself too lowly, Yunlang, it is his blessing to marry you. In the past, the Lin family still had the confidence to be compared with the Xiao family, but now they have declined. This is a fact, and It wasn't caused by you, it was Lin Yuqing's own fault, both Lin Yulan and Lin Yuming should understand that the Xiao family and the Lin family are already one heaven and one earth."

Xiao Yunlang sighed lightly and said, "I understand."

"Today, you did the right thing. If it were me, I would do the same."

After the guests dispersed, Lin Yulan still did not come back. Xiao Yunlang packed up the salute and went to the front yard to bid farewell to his parents. Xiao Su and Xiao Yuan already knew what happened in the afternoon, so they did not continue to stay. Seeing that Xiao Yunlang's face was not good, Xiao Su said : "If you don't live well, come back."

"Well, I see, Daddy."

Xiao Yunlang hugged Ah Yu and got into the carriage. The nanny sat in the first carriage with him. Xiao Yunlang didn't speak, but the nanny's voice of coaxing Ah Yu became quieter. After Xiao Yunlang noticed it, he forced a smile and said, : "Ayu received a lot of things today, mother Lu, have you put them all away?"

"It's all put away. There is a jade ruyi which is a rare treasure. Since I put away the treasure bestowed by the emperor and queen, I have kept it for Ah Yu as a family heirloom."

Xiao Yunlang smiled and teased his son, Ah Yu smiled face-to-face, and Xiao Yunlang's mood gradually improved.

When Xiao Yunlang got off the car until he arrived at Lin's House in Nanluoxiang, he thought that he hadn't been back for a long time, and he didn't know what it would be like inside.Wen'er went to knock on the door, and after a while Dongbai came to open the door, Xiao Yunlang led a group of servants carrying luggage in, feeling uneasy again.

After entering through the Hanging Flower Gate, Xiao Yunlang caught a hint of coolness, and put away the clothes wrapped around the child. When he reached the main courtyard, Xiao Yunlang heard the voice inside, sighed softly, and walked over.

Lin Yulan had been pouring wine for Lin Yuming. Lin Yuming had one glass after another, but the two brothers didn't have much to say. Mrs. Yang was also at the table, eating non-stop. The moment Xiao Yunlang walked in, everyone fell silent .Xiao Yunlang's aura seemed to be too incompatible with this room. He was wearing a silver-white emerald-patterned feather satin cloak, and the child he was holding was covered with a dark-colored fox fur jacket, making his small face extraordinarily white. Under the attention of several gazes, Xiao Yunlang actually felt a bit at a loss in his own home.

Fortunately, the next moment, Lin Yulan got up and came over, took the child over, and said to the second elder brother and second sister-in-law: "This is our son, Ah Yu."

"Call, Ah Yu?" Lin Yuming looked over.

Xiao Yunlang smiled and said, "Yes, his name is Lin Zhaoyu."

Lin Yuming withdrew his gaze, and Yang continued to eat, Xiao Yunlang felt a little embarrassed again at a loss, and Lin Zhaojing took a deep look at him.After Xiao Yunlang gave Ah Yu to the nanny, he sat down beside Lin Yulan. He also didn't eat at night, although he didn't have much appetite now.

Lin Yulan suddenly grabbed his hand under the table, and shook it gently. Xiao Yunlang's heart miraculously calmed down, and the expression on his face softened. He said to Lin Zhaojing, "Ah Jing has already Twenty-four, haven't you married yet? Where's your sister?"

Lin Zhaojing said lightly, "I married in the northwest."

Xiao Yunlang glanced at Lin Yulan, and asked again: "Zhaoru's sister, is she married too?"

"Ah."

The little girl A Lin looks to be only two or three years old, and she was born during the filial piety just by looking at her age. A Lin's neck is dirty, her little face is dark, and she is gnawing on a chicken paw, her fingernails It was gray and black, Xiao Yunlang felt a little uncomfortable, and was about to ask the servant girl to take her down to wash, when Yang suddenly screamed: "You damn girl knows how to eat! Eat, eat, eat! Why don't you eat to death!"

Xiao Yunlang was taken aback, he thought Yang was referring to A Lin, but in fact she was scolding A Xuan, A Xuan was frighteningly thin, cowering like a frightened little mouse, only then did Xiao Yunlang realize that she had just After drinking the soup, the soup spilled on Yang's skirt.

Xiao Yunlang said: "Wen'er, take your two nieces to another room to eat, and give them a good wash."

"Hey."

Yang didn't respond, Wen'er took the two girls out.

After eating without taste, Xiao Yunlang asked his servants to take them to the two side yards to settle down, and followed Lin Yulan back to their bedroom.Xiao Yunlang hesitated and said: "Yulan, I'm sorry, although I promised you to take care of the second brother and the others, but this day has come, I don't know what to do."

Lin Yulan stretched out his arms, Xiao Yunlang stepped forward and hugged him, Lin Yulan's side face rubbed against Xiao Yunlang's hairline, and said softly: "I don't know what to do now, that girl, they were there during their exile. Now, I feel sad when I think of my parents and elder brother, but I can't blame them, and I'm not qualified to question them, how did the eldest niece and second niece marry? Who did they marry? I can't even ask."

Xiao Yunlang felt that his self-pity this afternoon was like a joke, and Lin Yulan was the saddest one. He held Lin Yulan's hand firmly, and comforted him: "Don't blame yourself, we will ask you one by one when the second brother and the others stay here. Now that you know where your nieces and daughters are marrying, you can send a letter to ask, we don’t lack money, so we can send some to them as a dowry.”

"Okay..." Lin Yulan sighed, "Yunlang, it's good to have you here."

Xiao Yunlang smiled and said, "Let's not talk about that, I haven't seen our new home yet."

Lin Yulan let him go, and the two of them walked around the room, Xiao Yunlang said, "That's great, it's much more spacious than before."

"Ah."

Xiao Yunlang leaned over and kissed Lin Yulan, and said, "Go and try out the new bed, let's go to bed earlier, and discuss those things after getting up early tomorrow."
