It was already mid-September when he left Shangjing. Since he had plenty of time and his schedule was not as hasty as when he came to Shangjing, Su Liu went back this time as if he were sightseeing slowly.
When I returned to Gyeongju, it was already winter in early October. When I entered Gyeongju City, I saw the streets brightly decorated with lights and colorful decorations. When I asked someone about it, good news came from Mobei. The Tatar Khan had been captured alive.
In order to welcome back the Great Khan, I am willing to take all the tribes and retreat to the depths of the grassland, sign a fifty-year agreement to avoid war, and pay tribute to our country every year.
"Girl, so the general is coming back soon?" Shuang Ning looked at Su Liu with bright eyes and asked.
"It should be soon." Su Liu was also very excited, and couldn't hide the joy on his face.
But when he heard that Ning Guang had left the signing of the peace treaty to an older general, and that he was leading the army to continue the expedition against the North, Su Liu smiled bitterly.
"Girl, the general will definitely win the battle." Xueluo comforted him.
Su Liu smiled and sighed silently, the three-year agreement was indeed absolutely right.
"Miss, the Song Mansion has arrived." The coachman's voice sounded outside, and the carriage stopped.
Since Qingzhou is a must-go, Su Liu naturally has no reason to stay out of the house. Cao Mingzhu has married into the Song family, so she wants to visit him both emotionally and rationally.
When she came back this time, Song Xiao did not come back with her because she had to prepare for next year's Spring Festival, but stayed in the capital.
Su Liu was actually a little surprised that Song Xiao entered the officialdom. He always felt that such a windy and carefree young man should be as unfettered as a gust of wind, coming and going freely, but he chose to enter the officialdom where intrigues and intrigues existed.
And Song Xiao's answer was just an out-of-control answer. The second eldest son of the Song family had three outstanding men. In fact, Song Fei was the most outstanding. However, Song Fei only wanted to deal with farming and did not want to enter the officialdom. However, his eldest brother's political achievements
It's mediocre, I can only rely on him.
The rise and fall of a family cannot be achieved by one person alone. Since he is protected by the family and enjoys such glory, he has to pay a corresponding price.
Su Liu was silent after hearing this. Everyone can see the beauty of the big family on the surface, but how much they have sacrificed. You only see the surface, but not the blood and tears inside. There are many people who have sacrificed for the family in this world, especially those who
How many lives have been killed by a century-old family for the sake of family honor and prosperity?
Just when Su Liu was thinking wildly, someone from the Song Mansion had already come out to greet her, but it was Nanny Tang next to Cao Mingzhu.
"The second young lady is back. We miss you so much. Please come in quickly. The third young lady is thinking of you."
Ever since Chen and Cao Kui got married, people in the Cao Mansion have always called Su Liu and her siblings Second Miss, Third Miss, and Young Master Ye. Now that Cao Mingzhu has married Song Fei, he is the third youngest, so naturally he is called the Third Young Mistress.
Su Liu gave a half salute to Aunt Tang and said with a smile: "Auntie Lao is here to pick her up. How is your health? How is your sister?"
"Okay, okay, that's all good. Second Miss, come in quickly." Nanny Tang smiled and narrowed her eyes.
Su Liu then entered the house and walked to the second gate. He saw Cao Mingzhu standing under the Moon Gate and looking out, followed by a group of girls and ladies. When he saw her coming, he hurriedly walked up.
"Third Young Mistress, wait a minute."
As soon as she took this quick step, the girls and women around her started to exclaim and shouted.
"Oh, my ancestor, my grandma, you have to take care of yourself." Seeing Cao Mingzhu's flying steps, Grandma Tang was so frightened that she ignored Su Liu and hurried forward to help her.
Su Liu was stunned, blinked, and looked at Cao Mingzhu carefully. She was wearing a married lady's bun with a simple hairpin, and she was wearing a rose-red brocade dress embroidered with pomegranate flowers. She was extremely pretty.
The face has lost the girlish charm, but has a touch of charm and charm, making the whole person look even more beautiful.
But Su Liu felt that there was something else about Cao Mingzhu that made people unable to take their eyes away. What was it? Something flashed through his mind, and it wasn't until Granny Tang's words that the confusion was revealed.
"Ancestor, you are a twin now, so you can't stand such a fast pace. Please take your time."
Yes, that is the radiance of happiness, the happiness of being a mother soon.
"Mommy, I don't care. Just wait until I teach this girl a lesson so that she can be remembered well." Cao Mingzhu pretended to be angry and glared at Su Liu, then twisted her hands towards her and said angrily: "You're so stupid
Girl, you are willing to come back, I thought you didn’t even want to have a home anymore.”
Su Liu stared blankly at her belly, blinked, and asked, "Sister, are you pregnant?"
After hearing this, Cao Mingzhu couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth, and stopped pinching her. Instead, she stroked her abdomen with her hand and nodded shyly.
"Really? So fast?" Su Liu was really surprised.
How long has she been married? It's only been more than two months, and she's pregnant now? Isn't her fighting power too strong? How many people will be jealous!
"Why, my sister thinks my brother-in-law doesn't have this ability?"
Song Fei's voice came from behind. When Cao Mingzhu saw him, her eyes lit up and she stepped forward: "You're back."
"Well, I came back without incident." Song Fei held her hand that was about to salute and said, "Why are you standing here talking? It's winter now, so be careful to avoid the wind."
"That's right, come in quickly." Aunt Tang said quickly.
"Am I not picking up this girl?" Cao Mingzhu said coquettishly.
"She's grown up, and this isn't her first time back home. Are you still worried that she'll get lost? Go in." Song Fei took her hand and walked through the moon gate, while asking what she had eaten today. She felt terrible.
fine?
Su Liu looked at the backs of the two of them, twitching at the corner of his mouth, and said to the maids: "Is this how they always behave?" They act as if there is no one around?
Yu'er covered her mouth and smiled, saying: "Second Miss, Third Master is very kind to our grandma."
"I thought you were here to support me, a lonely person like me." Su Liu raised her eyebrows in a self-deprecating smile, and everyone laughed and followed her around.
In the flower hall where the guests were waiting, Su Liu took a sip of tea. The two people were still talking and ignored her. She couldn't help but coughed and said: "It's almost done. I just came back, so don't show off your affection in front of me."
It’s over!”
Cao Mingzhu glared at her and said angrily: "You still have the nerve to say that you weren't even here to get married, huh!"
"Don't I have no choice? Don't worry, I got a lot of good things in Shangjing this time. I will sort them out and send them over later to congratulate you on your new wedding." Su Liu clasped his hands and said.
"Who cares!" Cao Mingzhu snorted, but there was no look of displeasure on her face.
"Of course it is rare. I heard that someone was praised by the emperor and received many rewards." Song Fei raised his eyebrows and said: "Madam, we have children now, and there will be more and more children in the future. This family property is not enough.
After using it, if there is something good, it will naturally be kept for our children."
Su Liu twitched his lips after hearing this, and said, "It's been a long time since we last met. I don't know how poor you are, third brother. Well, this nephew is born, and as my aunt, I can't live without his good gifts."
"That's how I thank my sister." Song Fei didn't refuse, smiling and thanking her.
"You are still acting like a child, it's ridiculous." Cao Mingzhu rolled her eyes and said to Song Fei: "If you have anything to do, go to the study first and work on it. Liu'er and I will have a talk."
Song Fei also knew that the sisters hadn't seen each other for a long time and had a lot to talk about, so he smiled and said: "Well! Don't be overjoyed too much. Liu'er is probably tired after a long journey, so she will take a rest for a while, leaving her mother-in-law and the two of them.
The day is coming soon, it’s not too late.”
"Mom, are they coming?" Su Liu asked in surprise.
Seeing her expression, Song Fei looked at Cao Mingzhu and said, "You haven't told her yet?"
"I just met her, so I didn't have time." Cao Mingzhu said angrily: "Go ahead, it will be easier for us to talk."
Song Fei shrugged, gave a few more instructions, and then went out.
As soon as Song Fei left, Su Liu couldn't wait to sit down next to Cao Mingzhu, and asked urgently: "You seem to have something else that you haven't told me, what is it?"
Cao Mingzhu chuckled, stretched out her index finger to touch her nose, and said, "Look at how anxious you are, I'm going to tell you, so don't go crazy with joy."
"What on earth is it, tell me quickly!" Su Liu shook her arm coquettishly, feeling itchy in her heart.
"It's my mother, she's pregnant too, and her months are older than mine, more than three months old." Cao Mingzhu said with a smile.
"What?" Su Liu was really scared this time and jumped up. He walked around the room and looked at Cao Mingzhu in shock and said: "Is this true? You are just kidding me!"
"What am I coaxing you to do? My father and mother are coming in the next two days. You will know when I see you." Cao Mingzhu clicked her tongue.
"This, this, I'm so surprised." Su Liu said a little incoherently, "I didn't expect that it happened."
Mrs. Chen is already in her thirties, and although it is not unusual for her to be pregnant at this age, in this day and age, she is still quite old, and even if she is pregnant, she is quite cautious.
Thinking of this, she said: "Mom is not young anymore. Is it okay to have such a long journey?"
"It's also my fault. I was diagnosed with the disease in the past few days, so I sent the news to my family. After hearing it, my mother and others said they wanted to come over and have a look." Cao Mingzhu also blamed herself when talking about this, saying: "I persuaded her.
They don't have to work hard, but my father said it doesn't matter if the car goes slower, just think of it as a fun trip. Besides, the family has been depressed in the past few months, so it's time to relax."
Su Liu keenly heard the hidden meaning in these words, so he squinted and asked: "Why, someone's mind is moved?"
Cao Mingzhu sneered and said: "No, since my mother was diagnosed with the disease, there have been two red flower incidents. If we hadn't been on guard, I'm afraid..."
Su Liu's face darkened and he said, "Is it from the fourth room?"
Cao Mingzhu nodded and said: "There are also five houses." After a pause, she added: "Don't worry, dad has taken care of it. Those two families will not even think about entering our house in the future. Dad also warned the clan leader that if there is such a thing again,
They broke away from the Cao family completely, and now they are settling down."
Su Liu's face softened slightly after hearing this, but he was still furious and said: "How dare you do something evil? You are looking for death. I remember that the most profitable business in Sifang is the spice industry, right?"
Cao Mingzhu nodded and said, "What do you mean?"
Su Liu smiled coldly and said: "There are some people who you can't offend unless you give them a heavy blow!"
If you dare to do something evil, you have to bear the price!
