Jiang Nuan, mother and son, returned to Beijing in June without knowing anyone in advance.
Entering the city after noon, Jiang Nuan sat in the car and looked at the street market outside. He couldn't help but sigh: "I haven't seen you in a few years. The capital has become more prosperous and lively."
"If the New Deal is implemented well, people's lives will be easy!" Huo Ze asked his two brothers to ride horses, while he sat in the car with his mother.
"As the prime minister, your uncle Zheng presided over the new policy very effectively, which is a blessing to the people." Jiang Nuan showed a look of relief on his face, "We have heard praises from the people along the way. To be able to live in this prosperous age,
We are all blessed people.”
"My father's contribution is indispensable here. Only when the border is peaceful can the government be stable and the people feel at ease!" Huo Ce said.
When Jiang Nuan heard her son mention her husband, she fell silent and did not speak again.
No one misses Huo Tian more than her.
Huo Ze also noticed his mother's emotions immediately and held his mother's hand distressedly.
When they arrived at the gate of the mansion, the servant guarding the gate was stunned for a moment, then he was overjoyed and hurriedly came out to greet Jiang Nuan and the three young masters.
"Madam, eldest young master, second young master, and third young master, you are back! We are looking forward to you every day!"
A young servant hurriedly ran inside, shouting as he ran: "Madam is back!"
After a while, all the servants in the mansion came out and surrounded Jiang Nuan, mother and son.
Saying hello all over the place, crying and laughing at the same time.
"Why don't you see Wei Yu?" Jiang Nuan asked after the crowd calmed down a little.
"The housekeeper went out early in the morning to do errands. Our family's business has more than doubled, and the housekeeper has no time to spare every day." Wan's mother said with a smile, "Madam, our family has been able to do well in the past three years since you have been in the frontier.
He is a wealthy man in Beijing."
"Butler Wei is so awesome!" Huo Ji was really shocked, "It's not easy to become a rich man in the capital."
"Isn't that right? Butler Wei has vision and is good at planning. Many people say he is a genius."
"Where's Mama Sang?" Jiang Nuan couldn't help but feel worried after looking for a long time without seeing Mama Sang.
"Don't worry, madam. Mother Sang just sprained her foot two days ago and has difficulty moving. She is in her room." Mother Wan said with a smile.
Jiang Nuan specially went to Sang's mother's room to see her. At this time, Sang's mother had silver hair.
When she saw Jiang Nuan, she couldn't help but burst into tears. She took Jiang Nuan's hand and said, "Girl, you are finally back. I was worried that I would never see you again."
"What are you talking about, mom? I think your old body and bones are in very good shape. It won't be a problem to live to be a hundred years old." Jiang Nuan said with a smile, "Besides, you have such a capable godson to take care of you in your old age."
"Wei Yu is a good boy," Sang's mother nodded, "Anyway, now that the madam and the young masters are back, I won't miss him anymore."
People deliberately didn't mention Huo Tian, for fear that Jiang Nuan would be sad.
Jiang Nuan saw that the house was in order, and she had nothing to worry about.
When I got back to the room, it was also fully furnished and there was no need to change the bedding.
"The housekeeper has ordered that the rooms of the masters must be cleaned on time, and the bedding must be changed every half a month." The maid said, "This is so that Madam, you can have a good rest after you come back."
Ruan saw that when she walked on the windowsill, the pots of flowers in the house were also well taken care of and the flowers were in full bloom.
Everything in this room is almost the same as when she left it, but some things are different after all, and some people can never go back.
Wei Yu didn't come back from outside until it was time to light the lamp.
When I entered the house, I heard that Jiang Nuan was back, so I hurried over to say hello.
Jiang Nuan saw him and said, "Wei Yu, you have worked hard these years."
"Ma'am, please don't say that. This is what a villain should do." Wei Yu was always humble.
"Actually, if you had gone to school, you would have been able to become an official by now, but you ended up being the housekeeper in our house." Jiang Nuan felt very sorry.
"A villain doesn't like to be an official, nor does he have the ambition or talent to be an official." Wei Yu said, "Madam, don't feel sorry for me."
"Wei Yu, you are in your late thirties. I have advised you more than once over the years to start a family. Why are you still alone now?" Jiang Nuan said, "You must have your own home and yourself at some point.
Only relatives can do that."
"Madam, I have long been used to running around here and there without any worries." Wei Yu smiled, "Besides, I am actually very impatient and don't like to worry about my own trivial matters every day.
It’s fine just like that.”
"You seem to be the most gentle-tempered person, but in fact you are the most stubborn at heart." Jiang Nuan shook his head and said, "As your godmother, Mother Sang must be more worried about your life-long affairs than I am. But since you are unwilling to get married,
It may not be enough to force it. Maybe one day you meet someone you like and want to start a family."
"Yes, I think so too, don't force it until fate comes." Wei Yu said with a smile.
"You just came back, go eat and have a rest! Come back tomorrow and I will talk to you about the young master." Jiang Nuan was considerate of Wei Yu's hard work.
"But is it the eldest young master's marriage?" Wei Yu asked.
"Yes, I came back this time mainly to propose marriage to the Zheng family," Jiang Nuan said, "Of course, I have to go to visit Sister Xu first.
But our family should start making preparations slowly. For such a big matter, we must be cautious and thorough.
Otherwise, it would be easy for our family to be laughed at, and it would be bad for other girls to feel cold."
"What Madam said is that I should go and make plans first." Wei Yu said, "Madam, you have been working hard all the way. Please rest early! I also resigned first."
The day after Jiang Nuan came back, he sent someone to deliver a message to Xu Chunjun.
Xu Chunjun was very happy to learn that Jiang Nuan was back and hurriedly packed up to see her.
Jiang Nuan said: "Sister Xu, I will just go to your house another day. I originally planned to go there tomorrow."
"You can wait, but I can't wait." Xu Chunjun said with a smile, "It's great to have you back. I haven't missed you even a day in the past few years.
Half a month ago I went into the palace to see the Queen, and she was also thinking about you."
"Now that I'm back, let's go to the palace to see the empress one day." Jiang Nuan said, "Why don't I miss you!"
The two sisters haven't seen each other for years, and they really have endless things to talk about.
Jiang Nuan called his three sons over and greeted Xu Chunjun one by one.
"Time flies so fast!" Xu Chunjun looked at the three children and couldn't help but sigh, "They have grown so big in a blink of an eye."
"Why didn't you bring Fang Fei and the other three sisters here today?" Jiang Nuan asked, "Three brats are nothing to see. Women have transformed into eighteen years old."
"Fang Fei and Aluan are both in the palace. I didn't know you were coming back." Xu Chunjun said, "The third child is with his grandfather. The old man has not been well these days. He is taking care of him there, so I can rest assured.
