As soon as Geng Shuhuai entered the house, the first place he went to was Yide Courtyard. Geng Xun, the uncle of Anping, looked at the grandson in front of him who was half a head taller than himself, and said happily: "You have grown taller, so... you have grown up, right?"
Geng Shuhuai instantly understood the meaning of Geng Xun's words. He stood up straight and said seriously: "I have grown up long ago."
"Okay, okay!" Geng Xun wanted to say a few more words, but Geng Shuhuai had already handed him goodbye.
"Grandpa, my grandson has not returned home for two years. My father, mother and sister must miss me very much. My grandson went to see his parents and sister first."
Geng Xun was a little disappointed, but he still nodded, "That's true. Go ahead. By the way, also go to the main courtyard to meet your grandmother."
Seeing Geng Shuhuai frowning, Geng Xun said: "The etiquette cannot be discarded! I am doing this for your own good."
Although Geng Shuhuai was unwilling in his heart, he knew that Geng Xun was right and nodded almost invisible.
After leaving Yide Courtyard, Geng Shuhuai looked back. He didn't know if it was because he hadn't returned home for two years. He felt that something was wrong. He always felt that his grandfather seemed different from before. In the past, he would not remind him to go to the main courtyard, let alone I'll give him an explanation.
While Geng Shuhuai was thinking about it, he had already arrived at the entrance of the main courtyard. The little maid guarding the courtyard saw him and hurriedly stepped forward to salute. Then she looked a little embarrassed and said calmly: "Second Young Master, Mrs. Bo said that she had a headache just now. Let you...let you wait outside the hospital!"
Geng Shuhuai wanted to turn around and leave, but then he thought about what Geng Xun had just said. He didn't know what was going on at home, and he didn't care. It would be bad if it affected his mother and sister. Wouldn't he just wait outside in the sun? A bodyguard who travels all year round is still afraid of this.
"Second brother!"
Geng Shuhuai had just adjusted his posture when he heard Geng Xingshuang's voice coming from not far away. The excitement and excitement in that voice could be accurately heard by Geng Shuhuai even though they were far away. He grinned unconsciously. got up.
"Sister Shuang!"
He stopped adjusting his posture and hurriedly greeted him. The brother and sister met not far from the entrance of the main courtyard. Both of them had big smiles on their faces. They were smiling, and Geng Xingshuang's eyes turned red.
"Second brother, why don't you send someone a message before you come back? We can go to the city gate to greet you, and we can prepare for the feast earlier."
Now like this, Geng Shuhuai entered the city and the mansion by himself. The whole family stayed in Qingcui Courtyard without knowing anything. If the gatekeeper hadn't received many benefits from Geng Xingshuang and said something to Jinbao, I'm afraid They didn't know until Geng Shuhuai walked into Qingcui Courtyard.
Thinking of the time when Geng Shulou came back, it didn't cause a sensation in the whole house. The kitchen prepared the menu the day before and started cooking and frying in the early morning to prepare for the banquet.
Geng Shuhuai, who returned home after two years, is as good as the sky compared to Geng Shulou.
As a biological sister, Geng Xingshuang was naturally unhappy. She didn't care about this, but her second brother didn't.
In the beginning, her second brother was angered by the partiality of the people in this house, and now he is back...
"By the way, second brother, when you come back this time, you won't leave, right?"
It was neither a Chinese New Year nor a holiday, but the second brother suddenly came back. Geng Xingshuang thought that he had thought about it and would not go to Pingcheng to run escorts in the future. After all, Geng Shuhuai had told her before that he would not be an escort for the rest of his life. , when he reaches the right age and at the right time, he may figure out what he wants to do in the future.
Has the second brother thought clearly now?
"Yang Liu is back too. He went back to the Yang family first. He will come to visit his father and mother tomorrow. Hong Fu and Lu Xi are also back."
"He's back too? I haven't received a reply during this period. I thought you were going to escorts again. I kept thinking about it. Now that you're fine, I can rest assured. The second brother came back specially to accompany Brother Yang Liu to attend the Qiu Wei Festival. For the exam?”
Facing his sister's shining eyes, Geng Shuhuai turned his face slightly and said, "Well... you can also say that."
Geng Xingshuang thought that her second brother was in trouble because he hadn't figured out what he wanted to do in the future. She nodded and did not press. In fact, she had no objection to what her second brother would do in the future, whether he should be a bodyguard for the rest of his life. She just didn't want him to be so far away, separated for several years.
"Jinbao, if you ask someone to order a table at Ruyi Building and come back, Master Xiaoyu will cook everything."
She knew there was no way the kitchen could prepare anything good, and she didn't expect them.
Jinbao took the order and trotted to the outer courtyard.
Geng Shuhuai also recovered from the guilty feeling just now. When he heard Geng Xingshuang decided on the dinner, he asked curiously: "Ruyi Restaurant? We haven't eaten at this restaurant before. It's a new restaurant in the past two years." A restaurant?"
Geng Xingshuang shook his head, "No, they have been open for a few years, but they have a new chef who makes delicious food. You will know it when you have dinner."
"Then I have to give it a try. I'm on the road these days and eat dry food most of the time. I'm really worried. The dry food I bought twice was so unpalatable that I even scratched my throat after eating it. I didn't drink a bowl of water after that, and I couldn't speak at all. I don't know how that boy Yang Liu managed to swallow it without changing his expression. The whole journey, I made him push me, and I was several times more tired than when I was escorting! "
Geng Shuhuai was so happy to see his sister that he couldn't stop talking and started talking.
"Why are you in such a hurry? It's still some time before Qiu Wei!"
Geng Xingshuang's words reminded Geng Shuhuai, who first looked Geng Xingshuang up and down, "Sister Shuang, are you okay?"
Geng Xingshuang was surprised by his question. When he was about to answer, he heard Ruan sobbing slightly in excitement, "Brother Huai, is it really you who is back?"
The brother and sister quickly turned their heads and saw Geng Wen supporting Ruan, and the couple walked over quickly.
It turned out that after Geng Xingshuang got the news of Geng Shuhuai's return, she was so excited that she couldn't wait to run here to find her brother. Halfway there, she remembered that her parents didn't know yet, so she asked Hua Lian to go back and pass the news.
"mother!"
Geng Shuhuai took a few steps forward to meet him. He was tall and long-legged. He arrived in front of Ruan in a few steps. He grabbed Ruan's sleeves and knelt down with a plop. "My son is unfilial and makes my mother worried!"
Ruan shook her head repeatedly, "No, my son is very filial. I have received everything you sent back and it is very useful."
"cough……"
Seeing that the mother and son talked for a long time, but no one paid any attention to her, Geng Wen couldn't help coughing lightly.
Geng Shulou stood up, saluted Geng Wen, and said calmly: "Father!"
Geng Wen saw that he was just staring at the ground without even looking at himself, and he couldn't help feeling depressed. However, the man in front of him was his own son, the son who had run away from home because of his cowardice and had not seen him for two years. He could only hold it in.
Geng Wen originally thought that Geng Shuhuai would never talk to him again except calling him father, but he didn't expect that he would speak again.
"Father, my son has already met his grandfather. He also went to the main courtyard to greet his grandmother just now. However, the little maid guarding the courtyard gate said that his grandmother had a headache and could not see anyone now, so she asked the son to stand outside the courtyard and wait. However, the son had just returned home. Standing in the sun with this dusty body, he is afraid of getting rotten and infecting his grandmother, but it is his son's fault, so you see..."
Geng Xingshuang didn't expect that her second brother would be so advanced and would actually make a sarcastic comment.
Didn't you learn it from Yang Qingmo?
Probably not. In Yang Qingmo's letters to him, his tone was always sincere and there was no such thing.
But... the characters in the storybook he wrote include all types of characters. Such words, in the mouths of some people with deep connections in the city, are simply trivial.
so……
"There's no need to stand, let's go back to the courtyard. I've sent someone to buy groceries. I'll take care of you tonight in Qingcui Courtyard. Then I'll bring your third uncle, third aunt, Sister Chen, Brother Yin, and stepmother. Brothers, please come over."
Geng Wen's words interrupted Geng Xingshuang's thoughts.
