Shuniang nodded repeatedly and said with great regret: "My maternal grandfather's home is in Beijing. I heard from my mother that I was born in Beijing when I was a child and didn't come back until I was three years old. Unfortunately, I don't remember it at all. .”

"Since your father is often away from home, and your brother and your grandfather are both in the capital, why don't you just move your family to the capital as well?"

Zhao Guoer asked curiously after hearing this. What she was more curious about was actually Shu Niang's mother, how could she marry all the way from the capital to this capital?

"You can't move. Firstly, this city is my family's ancestral home. My great-grandfather set the rules that unless they are officials, descendants are not allowed to leave their ancestral home and move elsewhere. Secondly, my grandfather and aunt are still there. My parents, I , and my father’s concubines and concubines must fulfill their filial piety and go there to pay their respects on the first and fifteenth day of every month.”

As if she knew what Zhao Guoer was curious about, Shuniang sighed and said: "Back then, my grandfather was an official in the capital, and the whole family was in the capital. I heard my mother's nanny said that back then, my grandfather and grandmother They never expected that one day my grandfather would move his whole family back to their ancestral home."

"There is nothing you can do about it if there are such rules." But at least you should tell someone when you get married. It would be a bit unkind to hide it.

Tian Funiang sighed after hearing this, but there were some words she couldn't say. She could only say: "It's really hard on your mother. She can't go back to see her biological parents so easily."

Not to mention being filial to your biological parents.

A woman, regardless of her poverty or wealth, once she gets married, she really belongs to someone else's family. If she can meet a good family, that's fine. If not, and she doesn't have capable children, how can she say "miserable" in her life?

Thinking about Tian Funiang, she sighed again. It wasn't until she remembered that Zhao Guoer was a blessing in disguise that she would not have to worry too much about meeting unkind in-laws when she set up a female household to recruit a son-in-law, so she felt better.

Zhao Guoer looked at Tian Funiang and saw the complicated expression on her face. She guessed that she was just thinking that Fucheng was thousands of miles away from the capital.

Shu Niang's previous words revealed that her father had many concubines, and there were even signs of doting on concubines and destroying his wives... Shu Niang's experience was like that of her own mother.

What can she say?

I'm afraid that saying nothing will not comfort my mother and will expose her old scars... It would be better not to say anything.

After Zhao Guoer sighed, she inevitably felt some sympathy for Shu Niang's mother.

Unfortunately, she couldn't express this, so she could only console Shu Niang: "Just wait, maybe you won't have to wait much longer for your brother to be in high school, and your family can move to the capital?" "

Just can't. Shu Niang's brother is not good at studying. The worst thing is that five years later, she and her mother will find an excuse to let their mother and daughter go to the capital to accompany her and her mother.

As long as they were not allowed to move as a whole family, the concubine and aunt would also move, which was a clear violation of the team's training. Zhao Guoer did not believe that Shu Niang's grandparents would still object.

I don’t even believe that Shu Niang’s father would dare to go back to this city to spend a long time with his concubine when he returns home, instead of going to the capital to reunite with his wife and children.

Zhao Guoer thought domineeringly.

"Yes, my mother is also looking forward to this. So she asked my grandmother to help me find a matchmaker, and she wanted to marry me back to the capital. In order to avoid being thousands of miles apart in the future and not being able to see each other easily."

Shu Niang's face became a little shy as she spoke, but she soon couldn't hide her pride and said: "You don't know that my brother is very good at studying. He was admitted as a scholar when he was only fifteen years old. This year, when he is nineteen, my grandfather tested him

His homework says that he will definitely be able to pass high school. With the help of his grandfather and several uncles, he will most likely be able to become a Beijing official."

"That would be great."

"Then your mother's suffering will be over."

Zhao Guoer and Tian Funiang both started laughing, and the atmosphere in the carriage suddenly changed. The sad look disappeared from the faces of the three of them.

While the three of them were talking and laughing, the carriage stopped again.

After getting off the car, Zhao Guoer saw the car parked in front of the gate of a house with a plaque saying "Song Mansion". Not only A Qing was there outside the car, but also Chunxi, Shu Niang's personal maid, who ran out after hearing the sound.

"Miss, you are finally back."

Seeing Shu Niang, Chunxi couldn't help but hugged her and started crying: "You really scared me to death this time. Next time, no matter where you go, take me with you. Otherwise, if you really have an emergency,

Madam doesn’t blame her, and Chunxi doesn’t want to live alone, so she has to die to apologize in order to feel at ease.”

"What are you talking about? I didn't come back well."

After giving Chunxi a light pat, Shu Niang was both annoyed and thankful at the same time: "But this time it was really thrilling. If I hadn't met Sister Guo'er and Aunt Tian to save me, I probably wouldn't have been able to come back."

"Miss, what's going on?" Chunxi stopped wiping her tears and asked in surprise.

"Let's go to the house first. I'll take Guo'er and Auntie to meet my mother first, and then we'll talk more slowly."

Shuniang waved her hands and didn't want to tell what happened again. She invited Zhao Guoer and Tian Funiang to come into the house together. Chunxi didn't dare to ask any more questions and took everything in their hands with great foresight.

There was no need for a maid, so I carried him myself and followed the three of them to the main courtyard.

In the main courtyard, Shu Niang's biological mother-in-law, Mrs. Dong Sui, received the news and rushed out of the courtyard regardless of the obstruction of people around her.

When they met, without caring about anything else, Mrs. Dong hugged Shu Niang and cried bitterly.

Mother and daughter hugged each other and cried for a while. Shu Niang wiped away her tears and pulled Ms. Dong to Tian Fu Niang and Zhao Guo'er. She first introduced Tian Fu Niang and Zhao Guo'er: "Aunt, Guo'er, this is my mother."

Then he said to Mrs. Dong: "Mom, these are Aunt Tian and Guo'er. Fortunately, we have them, otherwise I might not be able to come back today."

After saying that, she briefly recounted her experience with the gang of bullies she met today. Listening to this, Mrs. Dong broke into a cold sweat and said with gratitude as a gift to Zhao Guoer and Tian Funiang.

: "Shu Niang is lucky to meet a noble man. This noble man saved not only Shu Niang's life, but also my life. Otherwise, how can I survive in the future?"

As she said this, Mrs. Dong couldn't help but burst into tears, feeling deeply blessed for the two of them.

Zhao Guoer and Tian Funiang were both a little embarrassed and quickly returned the gift. Tian Funiang said repeatedly: "I don't dare to take it seriously. In the situation at that time, we were actually trying to save ourselves. Otherwise, those gangsters would not let us go."

"Well, that's it." Zhao Guoer also nodded in agreement, "When we saved Sister Shu Niang, we were also trying to save ourselves. You don't have to be like this."

"You can't say that."
