Chapter 1224: The Troubles of Many Children and Grandchildre

urnt to a crisp and can't be worn anymore.Tao Hongying and Zhao Yuru, clutching a half-cut pair of cotton pants, were so scared their legs went weak.Grandma Li held her granddaughter, who was sobbing,...Tao Hongying chimed in, “That’s right, the south is doing well, nothing is happening.” 。It's just that your grandma and I can't take it anymore missing you. So, while the family fleet is back this time, we snuck onto a ship without telling your uncle. 。"How did your uncle say, we didn't go down" 。Your grandma still pretended to be sick, only then did your uncle let him go!

Jia Yin slightly felt relieved, as long as she wasn't called back by that person in the palace...

"Mother, where are my brothers Are you and grandma the only ones returning Was everything alright on the journey" Tao Hongying replied, "An Ge used the excuse of coming back to report his duties and sent us back..." 。His ministry of foreign affairs and the foreign country have established some trade agreements, which are to be brought back for discussion by the imperial court. The next formal official document will be... 。"It's been so long since I've seen my dear brother. It's wonderful to hear from you!" 。She then said, "Mother, I'll go see my fifth brother. You two rest first, and we'll head home in a while." 。"

"Good"

Tao Hongying agreed, and Li Lao also lay down again. 。Although they didn't ask about how things were going in Xindu, just by looking at Jiayin's appearance, they could tell that nothing too dangerous had happened. 。As for the future, they came back, whatever good or bad, just bear it together. 。Jiā'ān wore a pale blue linen long shirt and stood by the dock talking to Lǐ Dàyǒng. 。The scorching sun had beaded his brow and tanned his face to a bronze hue, but this did nothing to diminish his aura of superiority. 。For so long, in Quanzhou, he built the Foreign Affairs Office branch from scratch, allowing him to grow completely. 。"Brother!" Jia Yin hurried forward, lifting her skirt. 。Home An turned her head and immediately burst into a smile, reaching out to hug her younger sister tightly. 。In my memory, my younger sister has always been chubby and adorable. 。At this moment, Ji'an saw that his younger sister had lost weight and her face was pale. He felt heartbroken and regretted even more that he had returned late. 。"Little Fortune, did you suffer Brother's back, it'll be better now. 。Jiao Yin tried hard to swallow her tears and acted coquettishly with her brother, "Brother, there's food and drink at home, Uncle Two and Aunt are also good to me, how could I suffer" 。I'm tall, so I look slim. 。"That's right," Jia An said, rubbing her hair. "It's grown two inches taller!"He then pulled his sleeve to shield his sister from the sun and shouted to Zheng Wu, the servant boy, "You watch over the moving of goods. I'll go back to Suijintan first, and head to the yamen tomorrow." 。"Yes, master, please rest assured, we are here." 。Zheng Wu responded loudly, a smile blooming on his face. 。Wherever you go, Broken Gold Beach is the place everyone loves and misses the most. 。Now that he has returned from the south, and hasn't even stepped onto the territory of Suijin Beach, he already feels his whole body filled with strength... Jia Yin also greeted with a smile, "When you finish your business, return to Suijin Beach. The village head will definitely slaughter a pig when you come back." 。Remember to go home early for the slaughtered pig feast! Zheng Wu and the others were even more delighted, they worked with a burst of energy. 。The siblings and Li Dayong returned to their tent. Li Lao'er and Mr. Wen also came quickly. 。Well, another round of pleasantries and lively conversation. 。This wasn't a place for talking, no one asked much, they just bid farewell to Li Dayong and returned to the village together. 。Unfortunately, Li Dayong has to stay at the military camp and can't return to the village to reunite with his family. 。But at dinner time, a fast horse from the village delivered half a pig of pork and a bucket of slaughter vegetables. 。He also ate with gusto, joining in the fun from afar. 。Of course, that's a later story! The carriage wheels rumbled, and everyone inside chatted about everyday matters 。Li Lao looked at the fields outside the car window, couldn't help but frown and sigh. 。"How come this year is like this, with both the north and south experiencing such a drought It's just unbearable for the common people." 。“Yeah, the waterway we came back on also encountered three or four groups of water bandits. They were all driven to a life of crime out of desperation.” 。"If it weren't for the fact that most of our people are retired soldiers and veterans, a mere look would scare away those water thieves." 。This cargo ship, it might be truly beyond saving. 。"

Li Lao'er and Mr. Wen asked a few questions carefully, and Mr. Wen said, “I had some vague news before, saying that people in various places were restless " 。But the court was too preoccupied with choosing a crown prince and selecting a bride for him to pay any attention to... 。In that case, it's quite possible things will get chaotic in the south. 。Li Lao'er nodded, “Brother Li’s workplace is close, and even letters back and forth didn’t say much 。Jiarren is far away. His place has always been impoverished and difficult. I'm afraid..."I need to write him a letter right away to remind him and have him prepare in advance." 。"

Lao Li was worried about her grandson and rarely spoke up, "Could some of the veteran soldiers from Er Cun help Jia Ren out" 。If this doesn't work, go ask the steward of Hou's mansion. 。"Grandma, don't worry. " 。When Brother took office, he had the most people with him. 。And before that, Old Black and his team had also rushed over, now they're probably almost there. 。“Oh, old Hei and the others are gone!” Li Lao Tai was surprised and immediately felt relieved. 。"This is great, Lao Hei and the others have been out walking for so many years, their skills are quite impressive." 。With them around, you don't have to worry about your older brother. 。As he spoke, the carriage soon turned onto a dirt road and arrived near Ercun. 。The elders and youngsters from Xincun and Ercun had received the news and were already waiting at the bridge, fidgeting with anticipation. 。It was when Wǎnr carried the child back from the city that she stopped here. 。As soon as the carriage carrying Old Lady Li and the others could be seen as a shadow, people in the village cheered. 。 “The old madam is back!” “Fourth Madam, Fourth Madam! You’re back!” Li Laotai and Tao Hongying heard the noise and poked their heads out of the car window. They happily waved at the crowd. 。Finally, the carriage arrived nearby. The village head rushed forward in one stride and opened the door. 。

Lao Li didn't need any help, and jumped down directly.

My fellow countrymen, I miss you all so much. 。"How are you all doing How have things been lately"

“Grandma Li, we miss you too! Without you in the village, we just don't feel safe.” Wu Da’s hand clasped onto Li Lao Tai's, voicing everyone’s sentiments.

Everyone nodded in agreement, chiming in with their own thoughts. 。"Yes, yes" 。"Old Madam, are you going back to Quanzhou again this time" "Yes, Old Madam. Isn't it hotter in the south Why not stay home for the summer." 。Li Laotai's heart ached, so she quickly waved her hand and said to the crowd: 。Everyone, rest assured, this time when I come back, I'm not leaving. 。Things in the south are mostly settled, of course I have to come back to retire. 。Let's not worry about it. Just give me a little time, and we can have plenty of good times together later on. 。"My old bones can't take it anymore, my feet feel like I'm walking on cotton!" "That's great, that's wonderful, the old lady isn't leaving!" Everyone was overjoyed. 。Several elderly women, including Wu's mother and others of a similar age, surrounded the old woman and kept walking toward the village. 。This one talks about the changes in the village, and that one talks about their grandchildren getting married. It's really a shame that we can't fill in the information gap about Li Lao Tai's absence over these past few days. 。The women around Tao Hongying are the same way. The women in the village have more to say than the older women, and they don't say any less. 。As a result, Wan'er was holding the child and couldn't even squeeze to the front. 。o be distracted, afraid that she would drop her. 。The closer they got to the new capital, the more carriages they saw on the road. After passing through the new capital, heading towards Lu'an Academy,...
