Inside the Shihuan Courtyard, Dong Shu was frantically putting on her clothes, but she did not forget to mutter, "Master, you saw that I did not wake up, so you should have called me a few more times. Today is the day Shuo'er is returning to the capital, and he has brought us so much fun these few days. Saying that, Dong Shu quickly dressed herself and went to the dressing table to put up her long hair.

Seeing the anxious look on the Young Girl's face, Xu Shiqiu maintained the same look as before, and calmly sat at the side: "My wife is not anxious, with Ye Shuo's personality, if you don't wait for us, you will definitely not leave."

Hearing Xu Shiqiu's words, Dong Shu stopped moving and looked at him, then resumed her previous action, "But we can't possibly keep him waiting for us." After saying that, Dong Shu quickly combed her long hair, washed herself a little, and then left in a hurry.

Seeing that the Young Girl was in such a rush, Xu Shiqiu did not delay any further, and quickly followed him out.

"I don't know if it's because the weather has gotten hotter and hotter these past two days, but I can't get up even in the morning due to not being able to sleep well." Dong Shu said to Xu Shiqiu who was beside him as she walked, "After I send Shuang'er off later, I want to ask Doctor Du to come here and let me see what exactly happened."

"Mn, then when I return later, your husband will ask Cui Hua to go and invite the Doctor Du." Although Xu Shiqiu liked to watch Dong Shu sleep, since Young Girl was worried, then he would pamper her and invite a doctor to come and see.

The two of them chatted as they walked to the entrance.

At the Xu Family entrance, it was already the fifth time that Ye Shuo had stuck his head out of the Mule Cart s gates to take a look. This time, when he stuck his head out, he finally saw Xu Shiqiu and Dong Shu.

"Aiyo, Third Uncle, you are really slow. If you didn't come, I probably wouldn't have made it to town in the afternoon." Once Ye Shuo saw Xu Shiqiu, he opened his mouth and said those words. After that, he frowned as if he was displeased and hurriedly said, "You promised me yesterday that you would come today with Third Aunt to give it to me."

Hearing Ye Shuo's words, Xu Shiqiu still had not spoken, but Dong Shu had taken a step ahead: "Blame me for wanting to sleep, but your Third Uncle has actually already woken up." Dong Shu watched as Ye Shuo finished speaking, and when he did not say anything, he called Cui Hua to prepare the dumplings he had prepared the night before. Cui Hua woke up early this morning and brought them over, "These are the dumplings Cui Hua and I made together, although they are not exquisite, but they are your favorites, you take me to eat them."

"I knew that Third Aunt doted on me and was still thinking about the dumplings I liked to eat." While talking, Ye Shuo opened the bamboo basket that Cui Hua had delivered over, and took out a dumpling that still had some steam from inside and put it into his mouth, "It's for the shepherd's wort meat, didn't Third Aunt say that it's past the season for eating shepherds?"

He was only able to find a little of it after searching the entire village, and only managed to make a few dumplings with the meat of a shepherd's purse. If you like them, you can eat them after next year's spring. " Dong Shu looked at Ye Shuo who had finished explaining the source of the shepherd's milk and did not forget to tell him to come early next year.

Hearing Dong Shu's words, Ye Shuo's eyes lit up. She wanted to agree, but when she raised her head, he caught the eyes of the Third Uncle staring at him.

After Ye Shuo nervously swallowed his saliva, he looked at Dong Shu and said: "Third Aunt, I'm afraid I can't agree to your request. I'm leaving the capital this time is with father's consent, I'm afraid I won't be able to leave the capital casually next year." After saying that, Ye Shuo felt sad for a moment, then proudly stuck out his chest: "However, I have already learned to recognize shepherd's food from you, so next year I will definitely be able to find it at the manor outside the capital. At that time, I will go and get some home to have the chef at home to cook for me."

"That's fine too." Although Dong Shu regretted that Ye Shuo could not come back next year, she thought of what her husband had told his a few days ago and how he would go to the capital next year.

"Be careful on your way home. Remember to write a letter when you get home." Dong Shu was still a little unwilling to part with Ye Shuo's happy mood. In the past few days at home, there had indeed been a lot more cheers and laughter.

"I knew Third Aunt liked me the most. Don't worry, I will definitely write letters to you and the Third Uncle when I return to the capital." After Ye Shuo patted his chest and promised Dong Shu this, he then glanced at Xu Yanzhu and said: "I will also write to cousin. Cousin, you must reply me."

"Alright, hurry up and go. If you're late, I'm afraid you won't make it back to the capital to celebrate the holidays with your aunt and uncle." Xu Yanzhu had been extremely annoyed by Ye Shuo these past few days. If she did not want to go out, he would shamelessly stay in her courtyard and would not leave.

Ye Shuo wasn't unhappy in the slightest because Xu Yanzhu had said such words. Instead, she could feel the concern Yanzhu's cousin had for him.

"Hehehe, don't despise me, cousin. We might meet again very soon." Ye Shuo was afraid that Xu Yanzhu would talk about him again after she finished saying those words. She immediately entered the Mule Cart s and even said her farewells loudly to everyone: "I'm leaving, I'll be waiting for you guys in the capital." After saying that, Ye Shuo quickly raised his hand to wipe the tears secretly flowing from the corner of his eyes.

Xu Shiqiu and the others who were standing at the door could hear the tears in Ye Shuo's eyes, but they did not say anything.

"Okay, be careful on your way." After Xu Shiqiu finished speaking, no one spoke anymore.

When Ye Shuo left the Xu Family entrance with the four people who were protecting him, as well as the things that Old Madame Xu and Xu Shiqiu had prepared to give him, Xu Shiqiu was just about to bring Young Girl and his niece home, when he saw that on the road that Ye Shuo had just left for, another group of people appeared.

Seeing that group of people, Xu Shiqiu just frowned, while Xu Jun and Xu Jie who were standing not too far away from him suddenly became excited.

"Shiqiu, second brother brought them here." Xu Jun excitedly finished speaking and he walked forward two steps. After taking two steps, he came to his senses and stopped, raising his head to look at Xu Shiqiu with an embarrassed expression, he said: "Shiqiu, I will go and welcome second brother first." After saying that, without waiting for Xu Shiqiu to speak, Xu Jun immediately ran forward with quick steps.

Seeing Third Brother leave, Xu Jie first laughed mischievously, then said: "Third Brother isn't thinking of Second Brother, you must be thinking of Third Sister-in-Law." After saying this, Xu Jie intentionally winked at Xu Shiqiu.

Only after doing this did he remember that there was still a First Miss here, Xu Yanzhu.

Although Xu Yanzhu was not young, based on seniority, she was still a junior. To say these words in front of a junior, Xu Jie nervously and immediately blushed.

"Yanzhu, go back first and tell your grandmother that the rest of Uncle Xu's family have arrived. The big kitchen must have prepared food as well." After Xu Shiqiu finished speaking, Xu Yanzhu regained her senses, and after bowing to the elders, she immediately turned around and entered the courtyard.

After seeing Xu Yanzhu leave, Xu Jie reached out and scratched her head in embarrassment, then looked at Xu Shiqiu and said, "Shiqiu, I was too slow with my words just now. I forgot that my first niece is still here."

"It's nothing, they were all family members just now." Xu Shiqiu understood Xu Jie's personality, but after he said these words, he still reminded his: "However, Fourth Brother, you still have to change your mental state in the future. There is nothing wrong here, but if you are in the capital, I'm afraid it will cause some unnecessary trouble."

Xu Jie also understood that Xu Shiqiu said those words for his own good, so he naturally wouldn't disobey.

Just as Xu Shiqiu was talking to Xu Jie, Xu Jun had also welcomed Xu Feng and the rest.

"Second Brother!" Xu Jun first called out to Xu Feng, who was the leader, and then saw his eldest son, second son and second brother's second nephew stick their heads out of the Mule Cart and waving at him emotionally. Then, he hurriedly looked at Xu Feng and said, "Second brother, just now, Qiu just happened to send his nephew away.

Xu Feng was different from Xu Jun and Xu Jie. The expression on his face was not many, and after hearing Xu Jun's words, he could only nod his head slightly. Then, he turned to look behind him.

"Third brother, have you made it all the way here?" After waiting for the children to be withdrawn into the Mule Cart, Xu Feng looked towards Xu Jun and began to probe. Seeing his excited expression, he said: "You and Fourth Brother have not come back to find us, I was just thinking, that everything might go smoothly for you guys."

"Not only did it go smoothly, the old lady from Xu Family has already written a letter to Father, saying that she wants to recognize Father as the younger brother of General Xu and our family as a side branch of Xu Family." "With our family, no matter if it's the Imperial examinations or joining the army, none of our men will be bullied anymore. We don't need to worry about their spots being replaced."

"Mm, this is indeed a good thing." Xu Feng was not as excited as Xu Jun. Other than being able to see the benefits of recognizing his sect to his family, he could also see the benefits that this would bring to Xu Shiqiu's family.

"Then what have you and fourth brother been doing these days?"

"Fourth brother and I, we …" Xu Jun knew that his second brother was smarter than him, so he asked and he didn't hide it from him.

When Xu Feng and Xu Jun arrived at the Xu Family entrance, Xu Jun coincidentally informed Xu Feng about what had happened in the past few days.

When Xu Feng found out that Xu Shiqiu had specially invited the old Elementary Scholar to teach his family how to read and read, his impression of Xu Shiqiu became much better.

Seeing Xu Shiqiu waiting at the door, he jumped down from the carriage of the Mule Cart and cupped his fists towards Xu Shiqiu, "Third Young Master."

The one who followed Xu Feng out of the car was a gentle looking woman. After she got off the car, she bowed slightly cautiously to Xu Shiqiu: "Third Young Master."

"There's no need for Second Brother Second Sister-in-law to be so courteous. You two, together with Third Brother and Fourth Brother, can just call me 'Shiqiu'." Xu Shiqiu could tell that Xu Feng's and Xu Jun's personality was different with one another with just one look. Forget about being serious, even if he was thinking about something, he did not show it on his face.

As for Xu Feng's wife, he naturally wouldn't size her up. With just a glance, he knew that she was a very gentle woman.

"The family has already ordered the preparation of food. Second brother and Second Sister-in-law, please lead your nephews and nieces to rest and eat." After saying that to Xu Feng, Xu Shiqiu looked towards Xu Jun who was helping his wife down the Mule Cart and said: "Third brother, there should be three ships beside him."

Hearing Xu Shiqiu's words, the Lin family who was supported by their husband as they walked down the Mule Cart immediately glared at Xu Jun, and laughed heartily as they looked at him: "That's right, I am Xu Jun's wife."

Seeing that Xu Jun's wife was acting this way, Xu Shiqiu was startled, then followed with a laugh: "Third brother is truly fortunate to be able to marry Third Sister-in-Law." After Xu Shiqiu finished speaking, he held Dong Shu's hand and introduced his to those who did not know her: "This is my wife."

Dong Shu's wife was not as gentle as Xu Feng's wife, but her appearance was pretty and young, so when they saw her, Mrs Ma and Mrs Lin immediately started to praise her.

"Aiyo, Second Sister-in-law and Third Sister-in-Law really lost today." Xu Jie was carrying Xu Jun's youngest son, Xu You, and his five-year-old nephew had a bad expression after experiencing the past few days of travel, "I see that You'er's expression is not good, so I presume that the other nieces and nephew are like this, why don't we quickly go in and rest?"

"Look at me, I actually forgot about this." Xu Shiqiu was reminded by Xu Jie and quickly followed, inviting Xu Feng and the rest in.

Xu Feng and the rest didn't think that they would actually enter through the Xu Family's gate.

Once he entered the Xu Family and saw the respectful attitude and kindness of the servants of the Xu Family, Xu Feng finally believed in what Xu Jun had said to him before.

Because of the arrival of Xu Feng's group, the Xu Family was bustling with noise and excitement for the entire day.

Only when he returned to the Shihuan Courtyard at night to wash up and rest did Xu Shiqiu remember to ask Cui Hua to go invite the Doctor Du.

"If there's nothing else, please ask Doctor Du to come over tomorrow for me to take a look." After Dong Shu finished speaking, she yawned and was about to go to sleep.

Seeing that Young Girl was so sleepy, Xu Shiqiu immediately frowned. He decided that no matter what, he must ask Doctor Du to take a look at his tomorrow.

But tonight, Xu Shiqiu had a dream.
