After hearing the report, Mrs. Lian came out in person, "Zhan... Lady Xia, when did you come back?"

"Yesterday, I came back to attend my cousin's wedding. Tomorrow, I will come back to Beijing to see you."

"Please come home."

Xia Xi went in and sat down. Even his wife asked her about the capital. After that, she said, "it's just the right time for you to come back, and we're ready to go."

Xia Xi a Leng, "go where?"

"Back home, originally we also want to go back home. It was Prince Zhan who invited us to teach young Qi'er in Pingyang County. Now that young Qi'er has gone to the capital, we don't have to stay here."

"This is master Lian's idea?"

"Yes."

Even his wife did not hide, "the master said he was old and homesick. He wanted to go back to his hometown to spend his old age."

"What about you?"

"He will come back with us. After all, we are old and need someone to stay with us."

Xia Xi nodded and looked at the sky, "should even master come back?"

"He came back at this time in the past, but he said he would leave. The dean of the college would stay with him for a while every day to persuade him."

After two cups of tea, even the master came back.

See Xia Xi, surprised for a while, salute, "Lian Cheng has seen the war princess."

Xia Xi Xu gave him a hand, "even master, so no outsider, don't be like this."

"The words of Princess Zhan are different. No matter when and where, the ceremony should not be abolished."

Xia Xi

Skip this topic, "I heard Mrs. Lian say that you plan to go back to your hometown to provide for the aged?"

"Yes."

Liancheng should finish, said Mrs. Lian, "go and bring the house deed."

Lian went to the house, took out a box and put it on the table. Liancheng came forward to open it, took out the lease inside, and respectfully handed it to Xia Xi, "this is the house that Lord Zhan bought for us. He is not here. This lease is for you."

Xia Xi didn't answer, "since Feng Che gave it to you, it's yours."

"No, the so-called" no merit, no salary ". Lian Cheng didn't do anything for the Lord. He deserves it."

"What was the purpose of Fengche to let you come to Pingyang County?"

"Professor, young master."

"Did you teach?"

"I did."

"In that case, the house is yours."

"The princess's words are bad again. If the young master had been under my professor, I would have lived in this house all the time. But now the young master has gone to the Imperial College. If I can't use him, I can't take the house for myself."

Xia Xi feels headache, pressing without trace, "I ask you, whose credit is Qi'er able to enter the Imperial College?"

"Young master is very intelligent, but he is..."

Xia Xi interrupts him, "even if Qi'er is the reincarnation of Wenqu star, without your careful guidance, he won't win xiaosanyuan, and won't be named by the Emperor himself into the Imperial Academy. Your credit is not comparable to anyone. Do you think you should accept this house?"

"This..."

Lian Cheng can't say anything to refute for a moment.

Mrs. Lian advised, "master, let's take it."

Liancheng has been in the Hanlin Academy for so many years, but they haven't made any money. They have been very poor all the time. That is to say, after they came to Pingyang County, they only saved a little silver. Although they went back to their hometown, they didn't spend much, but they were not as secure as having silver in their hands.

Liancheng is still hesitating.

Xia Xi said, "in fact, I wanted to give you two hundred taels of silver today. Thank you for your kind instruction."

"Absolutely not, absolutely not..."

Lian Cheng waved, "as a teacher, it's my duty to teach students. How can I collect more money?"

"Well, I won't give you the silver. You can keep the house."

"Yes."

Lian Cheng's answer was straightforward. After that, he was surprised to find out what he had said. Just as he was about to open his mouth, Xia Xi blocked his way back. "It's settled, so that after you leave, I will send someone to send you money."

Liancheng's words were swallowed back.

Xia Xi didn't say that she had met Mrs. Lian and asked, "when will you leave?"

"At the end of this month, I have already told the dean that he will be able to find a new teacher after the month."

Xia Xi nodded and said quietly, "master Lian, after I went back to Beijing, I inquired about your two sons. I want to help you, but you know that I really have no way except to do business. Have a look..."

"Now that they have entered different yamen, what they do is their own business. Princess Zhan doesn't have to worry about them."

Xia Ximing said, "I know. I wish you a pleasant journey in advance."

"Thank you, Princess Zhan."

……

From lianfuzi's home, Xia Xi went to the jewelry shop.

Mr. Zhang came back from the capital and went to the other side of the city. He got three baskets of agate and came back. Shopkeeper sun was worried that Xia Xi was not there. No one could draw the drawings and make the jewelry.

Seeing Xia Xi, I almost cried with joy, "Miss, if you don't come back, I'll have someone look for you."

After seeing the agates, Xia Xi went to the house. After dark, she came out with two pictures. "You do it first, and I'll send the rest to the second uncle in a few days."

She will have to go back to Beijing early tomorrow morning. She will go back and finish painting. When Master Zhang returns to Beijing, she will ask him to bring it back.

Shopkeeper sun answered with a smile on his face and told the man to take the lantern. "Miss, it's getting late. I'll take you back."

"Give me the lantern and I'll go back myself."

Shopkeeper sun is a little uneasy, "or I'll let you go back."

"It's OK. You've got to break in and have a rest early after dinner."

Shopkeeper sun sent her out for a long time. After seeing her go far, she turned back.

Xia Xi walks slowly. It's late and there are few people on the street. It's very quiet.

Xia Xi returns home, Qing'er and Zhang Ye also come.

There are Eugene and her daughter-in-law. During the day, they both saw Xia Xi. They were just busy greeting the guests and had no time to talk to her. Seeing her coming in, they stood up at the same time, "cousin."

They both lost a lot of weight, and Eugene's daughter-in-law had some white hair on her head.

Xia Xi said with a smile, "Hua'er is very good. She can eat and drink. I've found the master of needlework for her. She's learning hard."

Eugene's daughter-in-law blushed, "this child, she..."

"I asked her. She said she was used to staying with Huzi and Qier. As soon as she left, she missed them so much that she went to the capital recklessly."

"She, she, she..."

Eugene's daughter-in-law couldn't imagine how her daughter went to the capital.

Xia Xi told her the truth, "I'm afraid she's afraid. I haven't asked. Anyway, she'll find us."

"Yes, just find it, just find it."

"After that, she will follow me, and you don't have to worry too much."

Eugene said, "it worries you."

"One child is also raised, three children are also raised, there is nothing to worry about. By the way, and Eun, let him live at home. It's too noisy for him to settle down and study. "
