Before departure, the Xu family took the initiative to give some things that were not necessary to take away and were inconvenient to keep for a long time, and gave them to a few families in the clan who were in financial distress, and then bid farewell to the old patriarch and rushed back to Yangzhou.

As soon as he entered the house, Jiang Wen couldn't help taking a deep breath, and sighed: "All these years, I still live a clean and comfortable life in this yard in Yangzhou."

Xue Shi and Xu Shi also missed this place quite a bit, they didn't sit down when they were tired, and wandered around in the yard, as if they wanted to find out what was different from before they left.

The servants who stayed behind knew that after they arrived at the pier, the kitchen had prepared meals early, so they came over and asked the master, "Grandma, can you let the girl bring the meals?"

"Bring it to the main hall." Then Jiang Wen shouted to the two people in the yard: "Mother, mother, you can come and eat after washing up."

"understood."

Jiang Wen also went to change the clothes he was wearing at home. When he came back, the dishes were being served one after another. He sat there and waited for a while, and then the two elders came over.

After dinner, Jiang Wen asked the two to go to rest first. She dealt with some things in the study, and went back to rest after dark.

On the second day, after Jiang smelled it, he asked his servants to send a letter of worship to the prefect's mansion, and then continued to work on the backlog of leaving Yangzhou during this period of time.

When the servant who sent the greeting card came back with a reply letter, Jiang Wen said to the two elders: "Tomorrow I will go to Chang Zhifu's house to visit Mrs. Chang."

"Go." After speaking, Mrs. Xue asked her again: "Master Lin has helped us take care of the house for such a long time, so we should come and thank you when we come back?"

Jiang Wen gave a hand to eat the fruit, and then said: "Chen'er is not at home, it is not convenient to come to our house in such a situation, why not give some gifts as a thank you."

Mrs. Xue glanced at Mrs. Xu, and what Jiang Wen said made sense, but she finally mentioned Lin Ruhai, and she was a little unwilling to stop like this, so she signaled Mrs. Xu with her eyes.

After receiving it, Mrs. Xu hesitated for a moment, took Jiang Wen's hand, and said with her unclear eyes: "Wen'er, tell me and your mother the truth, you don't want to remarry, is it because we are here to marry you?" s reason?"

Jiang Wen didn't understand. After thinking for a while, he couldn't laugh or cry and said: "What does it have to do with you? I will take you two with me whether I change my marriage or not. There is no hesitation at all."

"Although we are very pleased when you say that, we don't want to be your burden..."

"How could it be a burden?" Jiang Wen held her mother-in-law's hand behind her back with one hand, and her mother's hand with the other, and said sincerely: "We are a family, and the whole family is together neatly." Isn't it right? Besides, even if I want to remarry, the other party is not even willing to accept the two of you, why should I accept such a person?"

Xu's eyes lit up, and he immediately asked: "So you don't really dislike getting married again?"

Jiang Wen: "..." Why do you feel like you've been tricked?That's not the point she's talking about, is it?

Mrs. Xu grabbed Jiang Wen's hand and said earnestly: "We know that you don't want to be restrained casually, but your mother and I are so old, the time we can spend with you is limited after all, after all we are gone? Do you want to be alone?"

Jiang Wen wants to say that she is not alone, no, she is confused, she is not alone!

But before she opened her mouth, Xu said again: "Chen'er is filial, but he will have his own small family and his own business in the future. Your mother knows your temperament, and the most important thing is that you don't like to trouble your children." , won't there be even a person to say sweet words by then?"

"Then if I find another one, it won't necessarily outlive me?" Jiang Wen replied innocently.

However, as soon as Jiang Wen finished speaking, Mrs. Xue slapped her on the body and scolded angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about? You will suffer sooner or later with your bad mouth! Aren't we all for your own good?!"

Her mother beat her hard, Jiang Wen rubbed her hands and said aggrievedly: "You see, you two didn't remarry, but you came to lobby me. How can there be such a reason? People are not allowed to tell the truth..." It's really overbearing.

"Take it as a donkey's liver and lungs with good intentions! You..."

"Sister Xue." Mrs. Xu shook her head at Mrs. Xue, then looked at Jiang Wen, and said softly: "It is because of you that your mother and I have a smooth and comfortable life for the rest of our lives, but who do you have? Lian Chen'er I rely on you in my heart. We just hope that you can think about it seriously, instead of just shutting everything out, can you hear it? What if you are a beloved person?"

The mother-in-law Xu always thinks from her. Although Jiang Wen still feels that something is not right, but it is not good to refuse so forcefully, so he can only reluctantly agree: "Then let me think about it, but I've thought about it and I still don't want to, you guys are not allowed to say any more."

Finally she let go and was willing to think about it, and of course the two agreed repeatedly: "It's natural."

Then Mrs. Xue and Mrs. Xu left Jiang Wen's place hand in hand. After she was sure that she would not hear, Mrs. Xue smiled and said to Mrs. Xu: "You still have a way."

"Wen'er, this child is still soft-hearted, if she doesn't want to find a way to keep nagging, of course she will be annoyed."

"It may be up to me, I don't have much patience..."

Jiang Wen thought that she had always stood as a protector, but she didn't want people close to her to know her thoroughly, but she didn't want to break her promise when she agreed, but she wasn't ready to think about it seriously.

A few days later, because he was going to the door of Chang Zhifu's house, Jiang Wen put on his silk clothes and a troublesome bun, and then he got in the carriage and went out with gifts.

Ye Yunyi packed up early in the morning and waited for her at home. As soon as the servant reported that she had arrived, she went out of the house to meet Jiang Wen in person, "I thought it would be a while before you came back!"

Jiang Wen was held by Ye Yunyi's arm, and walked along with her while replying: "There is nothing wrong with you, so I came back. I remember your letter saying that Mr. Chang is going to return to Beijing to report on his work. Has the time been fixed?"

"The new magistrate must have received the appointment, and it probably won't take a few months."

In the main room, Ye Yunyi asked the maid to serve Jiang Wen some tea, then pulled her to sit on the kang, and said: "It's been a cold spring these days, and I, a person from the capital who is used to the cold, really can't stand the temperature in Yangzhou. Fortunately, I have to go back gone."

"It's like this in the south. It feels warm outside, but it's cold inside." Jiang Wen was also a northerner before. Even if she changed her body, she still felt cold psychologically. Of course, she could understand her feelings best.

Just coming in from the outside, a cup of hot tea is just right, Jiang Wen held the tea in his hand, and said to Ye Yunyi: "I remember you said before that your husband's house is a marquis's house?"

"Marquis of Kangyang."

"Ah, yes, the Kangyang Marquis's Mansion." Apart from knowing the four major families, Jiang Wen couldn't even remember the four princes and eight princes. Ye Yunyi briefly mentioned the situation of her husband's family before, and she didn't have the heart to cling to it, so she didn't deliberately remember it , I didn’t feel embarrassed to be reminded at this time, and asked: "Are you going to live in the Hou Mansion when you go back?"

Ye Yunyi nodded, "In the future, when you go to Beijing, deliver letters directly to the Hou's Mansion, and let me do my best as a landlord."

"Don't worry, I will definitely not save you."

Ye Yunyi knew a little about Jiang Wen, knowing that she was not the kind of person who would have a relationship with her because of her status, so she asked them how they had been going out for the past few months.

"If you have the opportunity to see your relatives, it's okay to travel across mountains and rivers."

"That's true." Seeing that her cup was empty, Ye Yunyi picked up the teapot to refill her cup, and asked, "My father also mentioned in his last letter that Mrs. You recently had a new lover, showing off everywhere, presumably It's your son."

"Chen'er didn't say it in the letter, and I don't know much about it." Jiang Wen didn't worry about Lin Chen's studies, but she had never been to the capital, so she was worried about another thing, "I heard that the time of Chunwei is exactly When it's cold, I don't know if he can bear it..."

"I have to go through this imperial examination, just get used to it." Ye Yunyi's father and brother all took this path, and there was nothing they could do if they felt distressed.

Of course, Jiang Wen also knew that she couldn't control it, so she just rushed to this point, and this was her, and the two of them at home couldn't help crying when they thought about it.

"Don't talk about this." Ye Yunyi waited for Jiang Wen to look over, and said to her: "The new magistrate's surname is Liu, although I'm not familiar with it, but I must be there for them. Do you want to come over then?"

This means that he is willing to introduce her, but Jiang Wen is just a commoner now, and it doesn't matter if he knows the new magistrate or not, so he shook his head and declined politely: "I appreciate the kindness, so I won't come here."

Ye Yunyi didn't persuade her either, Jiang Wen could come if she wanted to, or not, it was up to her.

"But the Lin family has Master Lin, so you don't need to ask others for help if you have anything to do."

Unexpectedly, Ye Yunyi suddenly mentioned Lin Ruhai, Jiang Wen's expression froze for a moment, she really didn't have any other thoughts, but if something happened, she would inevitably feel a little special...

Seeing that she was silent, Ye Yunyi asked curiously, "What's wrong?"

"No." Jiang Wen shook his head, he had no intention of telling Ye Yunyi about Lin Ruhai, even if he was a friend, he couldn't be honest about every detail.

The two talked for a while, and Ye Yunyi's youngest son, Chang Hongxuan, came to the main courtyard.Chang Hongxuan was unsmiling at a young age, but he remembered that Lin Chen's mother was very polite when she greeted Jiang Wen, and then said goodbye.

"It's only been more than half a year, and you three boys have grown so tall!" Jiang Wen looked at his back and couldn't help but sigh: "A child can see that time waits for no one."

When Ye Yunyi heard it, she laughed and said, "Don't you boast that you are young and energetic? You also sighed."

Jiang Wen felt that he was quite young, but Lin Chen was old enough to find a wife. After going out for a trip, the next generation of the Lin family of the Xue family came out again, and she started being called grandmother, what else could she do?
