Chapter 397 - 397: The joy of family (1)
No one mentioned the matter between the Xia family and Jiang yubai, nor did they mention the exile. For a moment, they were all laughing and chatting happily.
The three uncles were not good with words. They only looked at their sister and their children happily.
“Is Huai ‘an still studying?” Her first uncle asked.
Jiang Huai ‘an nodded, “Huai’ an never dared to relax.” I’m just waiting for mother and sister to settle down before I return to the Imperial examinations.”
Her first uncle’s eyes were filled with admiration. He had nothing to say about his sister’s marriage to the Jiang family.
But these two children were indeed intelligent.
“A man should be like this. Let’s go to the study room.” His first uncle stood up, and so did his two uncles.
Jiang Huai ‘an glanced at his sister, and lady Wang couldn’t help but laugh. “Don’t worry, Lulu. I’ll take good care of this lovely child.”
Jiang Huai ‘an was a little embarrassed, so he followed his uncles to the study.
After the men left, the women in the room were much more relaxed.
“There are no outsiders here. Yurong, since you’re back, you should stay here. I know you’re hot-tempered, but you have to think more for the two children. Then you can just treat the Jiang family as dead.” The second mistress spoke bluntly. She had always been a straightforward person.
“Let’s not talk about what happened back then. It’s good that we’re home.” The old lady sighed.
Back then, she did not approve of this marriage, but her daughter insisted on marrying her.
Now that she had suffered enough, she brought her son and daughter home. The Xia family had lost face, but it was a good thing that the children were home.
Mrs. Xia slightly pursed her lips, tears in her eyes.
She had been holding her breath and refused to go home, just to let her maternal family know that she was living well and that she did not regret it.
However, when she returned home, she realized that everyone was only concerned about whether she was happy.
“Huai ‘an is a capable man. Don’t think too much about it. I’ve always kept the yard for you before you got married. I’ve even expanded some for you. Go and see if you like it. Look at Lulu, he’s sleeping while standing. Oh my, my good grandson …” The old lady’s heart ached as she wiped away her tears.
Xia Shi turned her head, and sure enough
Her funny daughter was already standing beside her sister-in-law. Her eyes were narrowed and she was snoring softly.
She, she actually fell asleep?
His aunts laughed so hard that they almost cried, “look at how tired the child is. Hurry up and take him down to rest.” This poor thing, he still had to see that person tomorrow. Hurry up and rest well, so that there won’t be any mistakes tomorrow.”
“Tomorrow, you will hide behind father and brother. Our Xia family has had several conflicts with His Highness, and now I’m afraid we will make things difficult for you.” The old lady was a little tired after she finished speaking. Knowing that her daughter was going home, she did not sleep last night.
As he grew older, it was inevitable that he would be a little tired.
“I’ll carry Lulu.” Lady Wang liked Lulu, so she bent down and picked her up.
Hey, it’s quite heavy, I almost sprained my waist.
The old lady went back to the backyard to rest, and everyone accompanied the Xia family to the perfume Pavilion.
“All of these are for you to use as a young lady before you got married, we have not touched them. Last year, when she was of marriageable age, we didn’t even let her move in.” Second aunt said with a smile.
The eldest young lady was the daughter of the eldest branch.
The eldest branch had two sons and a daughter, both of whom were married. Now that he was an official, his two wives were with him.
They each had their own children.
They had yet to be recalled back to the capital.
The eldest young lady had just reached marriageable age last year and was not yet married. She was currently looking at someone.
The second branch had a son and a daughter. The eldest son was already married and the daughter was still in the boudoir.
The third branch only had one son, a child that the Xia family had at its peak. He was like a precious egg and was now studying at the Imperial College..
