After the prosperous Tang Dynasty

Xiao Yansui walked swiftly, however, seeing her back that hadn't gone far, the rest of the people looked at each other in dismay.

Xiao Wu and Xiao Yansui were not much different in age, compared to Xiao Heng who looked at his younger siblings as children, Xiao Wu and Xiao Yansui were more comfortable when they were fighting.

As the eldest grandson, Xiao Heng was loved by Mrs. Xu Guogong's Mrs. He in the early days, and he also loved his younger sister. However, he was more or less scruples about his grandmother He's mood, and at most he would appropriately reduce the number of visits to Xu Guogong's Mrs. He's side. Number of appearances.

As for Xiao Wu, he was a bit younger after all, and his preferences for good and evil were very obvious in his youth, especially Mrs. Xu Guogong's Mrs. He did not like Xiao Yansui. It was an open secret of the entire Xiao family. Among the younger sisters, Xiao Wu had a one-sided attitude at all, obviously leaning towards Xiao Yansui who was younger than him.

At this moment, seeing that Xiao Yansui was about to go far away, Xiao Wu immediately said: "I'll take Liu Niang back!"

Xiao Heng, Pei Shi, and Xiao Hua, who were still standing still, looked at the backs of Xiaoer himself and the youngest daughter, and could vaguely hear the whispering voices of the two brothers and sisters over there.

"Let's go, I'm exhausted all day, Liu Niang, you should go back to rest early."

"You lack exercise?" Xiao Yansui turned to look at Xiao Wu, "It shouldn't be!" Although Xiao Wu goes to the academy every day, he is not a bookworm. With Xiao Song around, Xiao Wu has practiced skills, weapons and so on. I know a little bit...

In other words, in the court hall of the Tang Dynasty at this moment, the difference between civil servants and military officials is actually not very big. Military generals are stationed outside, and civil servants are returned to Chang'an City. Basically, the switching is seamless, at most It is a bit of a difference in the level of literary literacy or the art of war, but this is also a normal situation.

Xiao Wu stretched out his hand and gently patted his younger sister's head, "I was afraid that you would be tired, and you were about to fall asleep with your head lowered at the banquet just now!"

"I'm okay too!" Xiao Yansui was quite confident in her physical strength.

Just now, she just had nothing else to do after eating, and after listening to the gossip of those little ladies with great interest, she couldn't help thinking about the past, many things in the present, and her plans for the future, so she kept A little distracted, and when I regained my mind, I felt a little bored and started to feel sleepy.

It's just that feeling sleepy when you're full, and being too tired to move are two different things...

Seeing Xiao Yansui and Xiao Wu walking farther and farther away, the babbling of the two gradually disappeared, and Xiao Heng who stayed behind finally turned around, and said to Pei and Xiao Hua with a gentle smile: " Aye, Auntie, go to bed earlier."

Xiao Hua nodded, but couldn't help but sighed secretly in his heart.

When Xiao Hua was young, he and Lu Xiangxian's eldest son, Lu Fan, were also good friends who played together since childhood, but for the Lu family, his children obviously don't have much impression of them.

·

In the main courtyard of the Lu Mansion, after Xiao Song and He Shi hurriedly arrived, Lu Fan immediately greeted them.

"How is sister?" Xiao Song quickly helped his wife who was staggering a bit, his face was serious, without the gentleness and casualness that he usually showed.

Xu Guogong's wife He Shi also looked at Lu Fan with a good look.

Lu Fan invited Xiao Song and Mrs. Xu Guogong in, and replied in a low voice: "The doctor said, I'm afraid it's not very good..."

Mrs. Xu Guogong's wife He Shi's eyes trembled slightly, Xiao Song turned his head to look, and found that her eye sockets were already red for such an elderly person.

Seeing Lu Fan, he couldn't help but feel a little moved, and said with a slightly choked voice, "Auntie..."

Xiao Song glanced at Lu Fan, his eyes were straight and sharp enough to shock people, and he immediately suppressed Lu Fan's almost out-of-control emotions. He grabbed Fa's wife's wrist and reminded him in a low voice. Said: "There are other children inside, besides, what does it look like to cry and cry in front of your elder sister, you bear with it."

He Shi nodded quickly, blinked his eyes vigorously, trying to suppress the tears that were about to emerge.

Entering the room, Mrs. He of the Lu family was lying on the bed, with deep wrinkles carved between her brows, she looked old and haggard, her breathing was heavy, it sounded very tired and strenuous, as if They will fall asleep completely exhausted.

"Sister!" Mrs. Xu Guogong's wife, Mrs. He, finally couldn't control her emotions, and she fell down beside the bed with a bit of crying. The characteristic dry hand tremblingly touched Lu Fu He's hand that had gradually become thinner and almost skinny.

After a long while, Lu Mansion He's eyelids moved with difficulty, and then he slightly opened his eyes, revealing a look of pleading and hope, who was also firmly grasping Mrs. Xu Guogong's Mrs. He's eyes. hand, "Sister..."

Xiao Song's eyelids suddenly jumped unconsciously standing behind his wife.

Probably because Xiao Song choked hard when he mentioned that he wanted to marry Xiao Song's granddaughter for his grandson. He didn't directly mention Xiao Yansui again, for fear of accidentally stepping on Xiao Song's particularly sensitive nerves. However, the He family of the Lu family still murmured to his sister: "From now on... from now on Lu Ji, they want, they want you to take care of my sister more..."

Mrs. Xu Guogong nodded vigorously almost with tears in her eyes.

It is estimated that the He family of the Lu family did not expect that although her brother-in-law Xiao Song is old, her memory has not been lost at all, and she only mentioned Lu Ji's name, especially when she was still in a relationship with Xu Guogong's wife, He's family. The posture, the string in Xiao Song's head has been tightened suddenly.

Thinking that the He family in Lu Mansion is now old and sick, Xiao Song finally choked her back face to face without further ado—if this sentence made the sister of the He family angry, Xiao Song didn't want to see Lu Xiangxian's son rushing up to follow her He desperately...

When his old wives agreed one by one with tears in their eyes, and the He family of the Lu family looked relieved one by one, Xiao Song finally spoke softly, but said: "Sister, don't talk about these things, Lu Ji is still there now. If you are not married, you still have to hold your great-grandson!"

How can people who are old and have a leisurely life not like children?The grandson I hugged with my own hands back then is the most lovable. As for the great-grandson, after all, there are many generations behind me, and my own age has also come up. I must not have the energy to hug my great-grandson again. Scattered leaves, for people of this era, are also a happy event engraved in their bones.

Mrs. Xu Guogong's wife, Mrs. He, didn't know that Xiao Song, who had been his bedside all his life, was still secretly slandering Lu Ji's age at this moment. After hearing what Xiao Song said, he felt that everything he said was very reasonable, so he naturally followed this line of thought. Let's go on, looking at the posture, it seems that Lu Ji will get married tomorrow, and the He family of Lu's family will be happy with the eldest grandson. Maybe this disease will be cured.

Xiao Song sighed in his heart.

——Anyway, Lu Ji is not young anymore, but his only granddaughter is still young.Although it is not too early for young people to get married in the Tang Dynasty, no matter how anxious they are, Lu Ji probably won’t wait ten years to go. However, thinking about the birthday age of his granddaughter Xiao Yansui, Xiao Yansui But Song felt that it would be too late to get married after ten years...

Seeing sister He's calculations like this, he felt uncomfortable, but it's a pity that Lu Xiang left a little earlier.If not, the He family of the Lu family would not be like this.

After all, Lu Xiangxian was an extremely human minister in his early years, but Mr. Lu Xiang's upright nature, in the eyes of saints who appreciate him, is an advantage, but it is true to offend people.Afterwards, naturally it is not as expensive as Xiao Song's one...

Later, after Lu Xiangxian passed away, the He family of the Lu Mansion was immersed in the grief of her husband's death again, and the communication between Xu Guogong's mansion and the Lu Mansion was not so close. Under the circumstances, the juniors in the Lu Mansion and Xu Guogong's Mansion, that is, know each other, have completely lost the friendship they used to have.

As for the relationship between Xiao Song and Lu Xiangxian, apart from the friendship between Xiao Song and Lu Xiangxian, the greatest relationship between Xu Guogong's residence and Lu's residence - the two sisters of the He family, Xiao Song couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

The precious granddaughter Xiao Yansui and his first wife, He Shi, hate each other. For Xiao Song, the palms and backs of the hands are full of flesh, and the two of them have never had a direct conflict, so it just passed in such a vague way.However, in this way, Xiao Yansui didn't even have a good impression of the Lu family, even if he didn't hate him, he definitely didn't have the slightest intention of getting close.

As for Xiao Heng and Xiao Wu, even if Xiao Yansui did not say a word, it is impossible for these two brothers not to be influenced by their sister.If facing the grandmother He's family, after all, there is blood and family ties. Most of the Xiao family basically imitated Xiao Song's understanding and pretending to be confused. It was obvious that there was no need to hesitate at all.

Xiao Song didn't say anything more, but under the inducement of his words of "holding the great-grandson" just now, Mrs. Xu Guogong's wife, Mrs. He, desperately used this incident to encourage her own sister as if she had grasped the last straw. , forcibly stained the originally pale face of Lu Fu He's face with a little bit of vitality and blood.

When Lu Fan saw him, he felt overjoyed, and quickly invited the doctor in.

——If a person has the will to die, his life will naturally wither, especially the He family of the Lu family. Since the death of Mr. Lu Xiang, she has no hope.However, being stimulated by his own sister at this moment, the He family of the Lu Mansion showed a glimmer of life instead.Sometimes, it doesn't matter whether you have hope or worry that you will die in peace, it's always good to have a little thought in your heart...

After tossing like this until the middle of the night, the He family of the Lu family fell into a deep sleep again. Lu Fan was also worried that Xiao Song and Mrs. Xu Guogong's wife He's body would not be able to bear it, so he saluted and asked them to go to the next room to rest.

Xiao Song looked at his old wife, Mrs. Xu Guogong's wife He Shi sighed: "I want to spend more time with my sister." When her mother passed away, she was not able to spend more time with her, and she still cherishes it to this day.

Xiao Song naturally knew his idea of ​​getting a wife, so he nodded directly. The people in the Lu family are all juniors, except for Sister He, who is the oldest. Since she is willing, she can stay for a while. It doesn't matter.

As for Xiao Song himself, in the face of Lu Fan's ardor and respect, he waved his hands. If Lu Xiang was here first, he would certainly be able to stay here. He gave a reason and said: "I have to go to the court meeting tomorrow, so I will go back first. If there is anything, just send me a letter immediately."

Lu Fan responded immediately, walked outside the gate in person, and sent Xiao Song out in a carriage along the way.

The hour of the day has passed long ago, and the [-] beats of the "closed door drum" have already sounded before. At this time, there is a curfew, and without exception, no one is allowed to pass through the market.Fortunately, when he came out from Xu Guogong's mansion, Xiao Song ordered someone to go to the yamen to pass the message, because his relatives needed to go out due to illness.The patrolling soldier recognized the carriage from Duke Xu's mansion, so he didn't even have to question him.

There was a coachman in front of him driving the car lightly and quickly, on the whole street, except for the sound of the ruts, there was no other sound, Xiao Song was the only one left in the comfortable and soft carriage.

In the dead of night, people tend to fall into their own thoughts and think about many other things.Xiao Song thought about the Nanzhao, Tubo and other border wars mentioned by the sage in the Xingqing Palace in the past few days, and also thought that Xiao Heng had already entered an official position, the elder sister of the He family was not in good health, and he was also very old It's big, it's almost time to retire and go back to my hometown...

After all, fallen leaves return to their roots, Xiao Song has always been a person who can think freely, he doesn't want to wait until after his death, and then let his children and grandchildren wear hemp and filial piety to carry him back to his hometown in Lanling. Now that the weather is just right, his body can still move, he will smooth out the things in his hands, and in a few days he will resign from office to the saint, and then go back to his hometown by himself, maybe he can grow flowers and plants in his hometown for two years and take care of him. Everyday...
