Magistrate Fang hurried to the city gate with his son and several followers.
He ordered the government officials to open the city gate, and when he saw a few people outside, he felt relieved.
It’s not just that the in-laws come in person.
It’s just a few half-year-old children, so we can just bring some rare things out to play with them when the time comes.
He took his son to greet him affectionately.
Song Yichen met Fang Zhifu once when he was getting married to his sister. He has only met his brother-in-law Fang Shaojie twice.
He took a few steps forward and gave a junior salute first, "Song Yichen has met Uncle Fang."
Then he saluted Fang Shaojie next to him, "Yi Chen has met my brother-in-law."
Magistrate Fang said with a smile: "My dear nephew, you have had a hard journey."
Fang Shaojie on the side also greeted him with a smile. He looked very enthusiastic, but his eyes were very cold.
It was as if there was an insignificant stranger on the other side, and he was here to cause trouble for him.
Song Yichen was chatting with Fang Zhifu and didn't notice his eyes.
Li Yunze, Ye Yutong and Ye Mingxuan all saw it clearly.
It seems that Yichen's brother-in-law doesn't like him very much.
"Uncle Fang, brother-in-law, these are my friends and my saviors."
Song Yichen introduced both parties.
Magistrate Fang and Fang Shaojie thanked the three of them first, and then enthusiastically invited them to come and play in the mansion.
Originally, Ye Yutong and Li Yunze planned to stay at the inn.
But thinking of Fang Shaojie’s look just now, I was ready to follow him in and take a look!
After finally getting the person here, we can't let anything happen to him again, otherwise where can we get this favor?
There is still a long distance from the city gate to the government office, and Fang Zhifu and Fang Shaojie also came by carriage.
But Song Yichen didn't sit with them, he still took Li Yunze's car.
Ye Mingxuan drove the car in front, and the three of them sat inside.
Ye Yutong asked: "Mr. Song, when did your sister get married?"
"The eighth day of December the year before last."
Song Yichen sighed: "It goes by so fast. I haven't seen my eldest sister in more than a year."
There was a longing for his sister in his tone, as well as the expectation of seeing his relatives soon.
Ye Yutong asked in surprise: "We haven't seen each other for more than a year? Has your eldest sister never returned to her parents' home since she got married?"
Song Yichen shook his head, "My parents said that the past two years were not peaceful, and they were afraid that something would happen to my sister on the road, so they didn't let her travel back and forth.
Last winter, my parents were planning to send someone over, and it just so happened that my sister sent someone to send her a Christmas gift.
Knowing that she was living a good life here, she didn't come and asked the guards and servants to bring some specialties. "
Ye Yutong complained in his heart that this family was too caring.
My daughter is getting married so far away, yet she hasn’t sent anyone over to check on her for more than a year? Aren't you afraid of being bullied by the evil mother-in-law?
In fact, there were some things that Song Yichen didn't say. His mother's health had become worse and worse in the past two years. The second sister is getting married soon, and the family is in trouble.
This time when he and his second uncle went to his aunt's house, they also wanted to stop by the eldest sister's place.
But who would have thought that his own uncle would attack his nephew on the road?
"Yichen, when we get to your sister's house, don't reveal anything about our martial arts skills, including what happened on the road."
Li Yunze looked at him solemnly again, and said meaningfully: "Go there and observe more before talking."
Song Yichen raised his head in surprise. After getting along with him all the way, he knew that Brother Li never talked nonsense.
So what does this sentence remind him of?
He recalled the meeting with his brother-in-law and Uncle Fang. Both of them were very enthusiastic and there was nothing inappropriate in their words.
As for their expressions, he was too excited at the time and didn't look carefully.
Did Brother Li discover something? Thinking of this, he narrowed his eyes and clenched his fists.
Li Yunze and Ye Yutong looked at each other and felt that this kid was quite smart and could tell at a glance.
Ye Yutong smiled and added, "We are still young, and children should act like children. That way the elders will be happy to see it."
After hearing her words, Song Yichen felt like his heart was turning upside down.
Even Miss Ye saw something was wrong. How stupid and blind he must be to be able to be as defenseless as a close relative to others.
Thinking of his eldest sister, he felt so distressed that he could hardly breathe.
What kind of life is the eldest sister who has loved him since childhood?
He suppressed the anger in his heart, loosened his clenched fists, and solemnly bowed his hands to the two of them.
After calming down for a while, he smiled and nodded, "Miss Ye is absolutely right. Elders like good and obedient children. I won't talk nonsense."
Ye Yutong and Li Mingze smiled at each other and said nothing more.
The two opened the curtains on the window and looked out at the deserted street. Most of the food shops are closed.
The carriage walked to the street where Ye Yutong had bought food.
When I saw the blacksmith shop that Huang Laosi mentioned, the door of the shop was closed and it looked very depressed.
After walking for about a quarter of an hour, the carriage slowly stopped at the back door of the government office.
Mrs. Fang had already led people to welcome them out. When she saw a few half-year-old children, the smile on her face became even bigger.
Song Yichen didn't see his sister, and the smile on his face could hardly be maintained.
Ye Mingxuan stood next to him, saw his expression, and touched his arm.
Song Yichen pinched his palm hard and suddenly laughed.
He was naturally beautiful, and his smile seemed to bloom like a flower.
He walked up to Mrs. Fang and said respectfully, "Yi Chen has met his aunt."
Mrs. Fang held his arm and said affectionately: "Yichen, it's such a mess now, why don't you bring a few more people with you?"
As he spoke, he secretly looked at Li Yunze and the three of them who were following behind.
Song Yichen didn't seem to see her gaze, and said aggrievedly: "Aunt, I miss my eldest sister, but my parents didn't allow me to come, so I ran out secretly.
The things I brought were also robbed on the road. If I hadn't met a kind person who gave me some food, Auntie, you might not even see Yichen. "
"Oh my god, what a shame, those damned ones are so abominable."
Mrs. Fang cursed those who grabbed things. But I was extremely happy in my heart.
It turns out that this kid ran away secretly. Now that he's here, he won't be at her mercy anymore.
I used to hear how good this kid was at reading, but now it seems like nothing more than that.
I've been here for a while, but I haven't even asked her eldest sister.
How do you miss your sister? I definitely want to run out and play by myself.
But think about it, this kid is only twelve years old.
I read and read with those pedantic gentlemen all day long.
Now that I have finally come out for some air, I don’t just think about eating, drinking and having fun.
She thought Li Yunze and the others were Song Yichen's servants, so she ignored them and just waved Song Yichen to the house.
Magistrate Fang and Fang Shaojie knew that Li Yunze and the others were friends of Song Yichen.
He greeted them politely into the house and asked the servant to help them lead the carriage.
Ye Yutong and the three of them acted like country bumpkins who had never seen the world, and found everything they saw strange.
Fang Shaojie curled his lips in disdain, and when he saw the faces of Ye Mingxuan and Li Yunze clearly, he licked his lips obscenely.
His eyes glanced at his brother-in-law again. Before they were married, he was greedy for the first time he saw this boy.
But he knew that this was not someone he could touch. Now that this kid has been delivered to your door, why are you so polite?
