Fragrance Returned

When Ding Xiang arrived at Ding's house, Qian Lei and Zou Qing were already waiting to see her off.

She went back to her yard and took a look. Zhang and Ling'er had already packed the things she should take back.

The fairy snail was taken to Ding Lichun's house, and Ding Xiang took a special look at it.

Bai Zihua drove the carriage, and Ding Zhao, his wife and Ding Xiang were sitting there.

The Qin Mansion also sent a carriage, with Ling'er and He Hui sitting there, and most of the carriage's gifts.

He Qiang drove the mule cart and loaded it full.

This time not only did Ding Zhao himself buy a lot of things, but the Zhu family and the Qin family also gave many gifts, as well as gifts from those families to the Tao family.

Qian Lei took five soldiers to escort him.

There was no conversation for a few days on the road, and we arrived at Beiquan Village at noon on the 18th.

The injury on Dingxiang’s foot was completely healed.

Qian Lei wanted to take a few soldiers back to Qian's house to stay. Ding Zhao gave the soldiers two taels of silver each, and gave Qian Lei ten taels of silver to invite them to a restaurant for a drink, and gave him the gift he had given to Qian's family.

Before Ding Zhuang and his two little brothers returned home, Ding Zhen, Xia Sanfen, Xia He, Ding Sanfu and other villagers came and gathered around the door of Ding's house to watch the fun.

Hei Wa was even more excited. He ran out and bit Lilac's trousers while sobbing.

Ding Zhao gave each of the spectators a few pieces of candy.

Xia He still wanted to follow Ding Xiang in, but Ding Zhen pulled her and said, "After riding in the car for so long, Sister Xiang needs to rest. Let's come back another day to listen to her interesting stories."

Ding Xiang winked at Ding Zhen quietly, meaning I'll give you something good tonight.

He Hui will live in the same room as Ling'er, while Bai Zihua and He Qiang will stay one night in the west courtyard. They will return to Jiaozhou tomorrow.

Hei Wa is still so strong and clinging to her, there are a few red apples hanging on the apple tree, the east and west courtyards are the same as before she left, and Beifu Mountain is even more colorful...

It's only been a month since I left. It feels like I've been away for a long time. Many things have changed.

Knowing the secret of its own fragrance, our ancestor was a virtuous queen who found her long-lost relatives and experienced life and death. He also temporarily adjusted his original intention, which was to bring down the Su family first, rehabilitate the Dong family, and then find a way to expose the fake Xun Xiang.

Oh, she also became a well-known little rich woman, and her father became a rich man...

Lilac looked up and saw birds piercing the sky from time to time, and a group of geese flew south.

She wanted to fly away, and she didn't know when the little guy would come to see her.

Ding Xiang gave Feifei a gold anklet, and Mrs. Zhu gave Feifei a gold anklet with pearls. I didn’t bring anything to Heiwa, not because I was reluctant to part with him, but because I was afraid that if he wore a gold or silver collar, someone would notice him, beat him to death, and take away the things.

Ding Xiang went to the house to put things away, especially her box of treasures, locked in the drawer under the canopy bed.

After cleaning up, I went to the clean room to take a shower.

Before they finished washing, they heard the excited shouts and footsteps of Ding Liren and Ding Lilai.

Ding Liren shouted, "Father, mother, sister, you are back, you all miss me so much..."

Ding Lilai shouted, "Sister, sister, sister, sister..."

The two ran into the upper room. Ding Lilai wanted to run to Dingxiang's room, but Zhang smiled and said, "Xiangxiang is taking a bath."

Mrs. Zhang couldn't get enough of Ding Liren. This was the second time she had been separated from her youngest son for so long. The first time was when she went to the capital.

Ding Zhao touched Ding Lilai's maid and took out their gifts. Some were bought by Ding Zhao and some were given by the Zhu family.

Ding Xiang came out of the shower and ran into the house with her hair disheveled.

"Second brother, third brother."

Two young boys ran over, each holding her hand and looking at her.

Ding Liren said, "My sister has grown taller."

Ding Lilai said, "My sister is even more handsome."

Then he began to express his feelings of longing.

"My sister is not at home, I'm not used to it at all..."

"Why did my sister just come back? Didn't she miss us? I was thinking too hard. After nagging me too much, I even beat people and said I poked his heart. I became more and more unreasonable and found excuses to beat people. Even Uncle Yang Both Uncle Li and I have suffered from his scoundrels. It’s not our fault if you don’t come back...

Ding Lilai's eyes were red and he became a talker.

This kid's emotions are much more pure.

Ding Xiang said a few more words to Ding Lilai.

It wasn't that Ding Xiang had a better relationship with him than Ding Liren, but that Ding Liren still missed Ding Zhao and Zhang, and how they distracted him.

But Ding Lilai only had eyes for himself. This kid will definitely be as attached to his wife in the future, just like his father.

Ding Xiang took out the gifts for them, which were more than those given by Ding Zhao and his wife, which was a coincidence.

There are not only pen and ink washers and books, but also jade pendants, pearl pendants, coral pendants, small glass ornaments, conch numbers, and several packages of fried dried fish.

He also emphasized, "I bought this with my private money. Mrs. Zhu gave it to me. I specially kept it for you..."

The two young boys were so happy that their eyebrows were curled up. They felt that their sister understood them, and they had not waited so long in vain.

Ding Zhuang was invited back by Yang Hu.

While he was still in the west courtyard, his loud voice came to the east courtyard, "Haha, Xiangxiang, I miss you so much..."

Lilac laughed out loud, ran out like a cheerful little bird, hugged her grandfather and buried her face in his chest.

"Master, I miss you too. I can't sleep or eat."

Ding Zhuang held up Ding Xiang's little face and said, "Oh, it's true, I've lost weight. The red apple has been reserved for you, but those two greedy boys haven't given it to them every day..."

The old man and the young man entered the house with their arms around their necks and waists.

Ding Xiang hugged her grandfather and acted coquettishly. This is the first time in her life that she has been separated from her grandfather for so long. She really misses her.

Ding Zhuang also hugged his granddaughter and was reluctant to let go. If they don't come back, he will pick them up himself.

Before dinner, Ding Zhao invited Dingshan's family of three, Xia Er, Xia Dahe, Ding Li and Ding Youcai to have a drink.

Because the gifts for each family are different, Mrs. Zhang packed up the gift lists for the third family, Zhang's father-in-law's family, Ding Shu's family, and Xia's second family and put them in the bedroom.

Gifts from other families were piled in the living room.

This time there was a lot of stuff, and most of the villagers had a share. People with a better relationship will give half a pack of snacks or half a pack of sugar, relatives will give some dried seafood, and relatives with a closer relationship will add one or two pieces of ingredients, and the second grandfather will get half a catty of sea cucumbers.

The gifts from Xia Lizheng's family and the second grandfather's family were the same. This time, they still didn't send anything to Yuan Xia's family. Lao Ding's family clearly didn't want to see that family.

Ding Zhuang asked people to invite Hong Da and his son.

"I sprained my ankle that day, and it was Mr. Hong who carried me back. There was no woman in their family, and they ate casually. They often only had pickles on their steamed buns. In the future, we would invite them to our house for dinner more often. We would also give them more things, mainly Send food."

Lilac is secretly happy, grandpa is always cunning, this is a good excuse.

Big Hong's father was Zhu Qian's confidant when he was a pirate, and Little Brother Hong was Qin Hai's son. Their families were both financially strong. But for the sake of my family, I have to live such a poor life in the past few years.

Ding Zhao couldn't treat them differently before, but now that he has this excuse, he can move around more.
