The journey went smoothly and we soon arrived in Duzhong.
After getting off the boat, several people said goodbye at the dock.
Feng Yibo strongly invited him to be a guest at Feng's house, but the two of them had their own concerns.
Jia Yucun said first: "I'm here for the first time. I need to find a place to stay first. After I'm settled, I can then visit my house."
Feng Yibo was just chatting, he nodded and said:
"If the old gentleman has settled down, let someone come and let him know. We can also get together when we have time."
"Of course! When I settle down, I will definitely go over and pay a visit. I won't disturb you today. Please help me take care of my master."
Jia Yucun nodded in agreement, said goodbye to Lin Ruhai and Jia Lian, and left with others.
After watching Jia Yucun leave, Feng Yibo looked at Jia Lian again and said:
"Where's Second Brother Lian? Do you want to go to my place first?"
Jia Lian certainly couldn't go back home directly, but he had to go back home.
He pondered for a moment after hearing the words, then shook his head and said:
"There are too many people over there, so forget it!"
He knew that Li Wan and his son often went there.
Although these two were not talkative, there must have been a bunch of maids and women following them when they passed by.
What if the wind blows into Rongguo Mansion...
Thinking of this, Jia Lian shuddered and said quickly:
"I'll find a place to settle Guerlain first."
Feng Yibo didn't care, so he left after seeing this:
"Then we brothers will get together again in a while."
"Okay, I'll settle Guerlain in a safe place!" Jia Lian thought Feng Yibo was talking about running a business together. Hearing this, he nodded first and then said, "Give me a few days and we'll make arrangements immediately."
Like Jia Yucun, he needs to buy a house first.
Only after settling down with Guerlain can we return home with peace of mind.
But he didn't dare to delay too long.
After saying goodbye to Feng Yibo, Jia Lian asked his confidant Zhao'er to find a house.
Afraid that Wang Xifeng would ask someone to question him, Jia Lian specially ordered his subordinates to tell him that Zhaoer was going to Feng Mansion to help.
On the other side, Feng Yibo took the Lin family father and daughter back home first.
The Lin family has a house in the capital, but they haven't lived in it for many years, so they probably need to repair it.
Moreover, under the care of Feng Yibo, the Lin family's father and daughter's health improved even more.
He would never refuse Feng Yibo's invitation.
I just sent someone to clean up the house first, in case of emergencies.
When they arrived at the Feng Mansion, Li Shouzhong came out in person and welcomed Lin Ruhai inside.
After the two exchanged greetings, they sat across from each other in the hall.
Li Shouzhong had time to look at Lin Ruhai.
Seeing that although he was a little vain, his expression was still normal, so he immediately breathed a sigh of relief and said:
"Brother Ruhai, seeing that you are in good health, I can finally rest assured."
"My brother is worried!"
Lin Ruhai smiled when he heard this and said, "Speaking of which, it's thanks to me that I called Yibo over this time."
He shook his head and sighed: "Originally, I wanted to explain what happened after my death, but I didn't expect that thanks to Youbo's careful care, I survived!"
"Yibo is indeed a good boy, and he should take care of you!"
Li Shouzhong felt quite proud when he heard the praise of Feng Yibo, and said: "Of course, brother Ru Hai shouldn't die!"
"It's just a fluke." Lin Ruhai waved his hand.
"As the saying goes: If you survive a catastrophe, you will be blessed later." Seeing this, Li Shouzhong comforted him and said with a smile: "Brother Ruhai is determined to have endless blessings!"
When Lin Ruhai heard this, he shook his head and said, "Brother, you don't have to be like this. I have experienced life and death this time, and I have figured out a lot of things."
"Everything else is fake. From now on, I will enjoy happiness in the capital, taking care of my only daughter, but not caring about anything else."
There was something in his words, but Li Shouzhong saw a tired look on his face and didn't ask any further questions.
He just said: "It's like a long journey. Let's take a rest and we can talk about it tomorrow."
Lin Ruhai was indeed tired. When he heard this, he was not polite and just said: "I'm sorry!"
The two of them got along well in front of each other, and Daiyu was also quite pleasantly surprised in the back house.
"Sister-in-law Zhu?"
Daiyu blurted out as soon as she entered the room.
Jia Lan couldn't help but remind her: "Aunt Lin, you should meet my grandmother first."
Dai Yulian's face turned red when she heard this, and she quickly stepped forward to greet Li Mengshi:
"I've met my aunt!"
This was not the first time that the two of them had met, but there was nothing strange about them.
Li Mengshi touched Jia Lan's head and couldn't help laughing:
"They say there is no common etiquette in the family. We are all members of our own family, so just be casual."
After speaking, he looked at Daiyu and said hello:
"Come here, let me take a good look."
Jia Lan has often studied with Li Shouzhong in the past six months.
In particular, Li Shouzhong attached great importance to the word "ritual".
Therefore, he also learned in a good way.
Upon hearing Li Mengshi's words, Jia Lan immediately shook his head and whispered:
"No matter when or where, etiquette must not be neglected."
Daiyu just came over and happened to hear it.
He suddenly blushed and regretted his recklessness just now.
Li Wan saw Dai Yu's description and touched Jia Lan a little.
He immediately showed a embarrassed look, stepped forward to salute Daiyu and said:
"Lan'er has met Aunt Lin!"
After seeing the ceremony, Jia Lan was a little shy, but said solemnly:
"I just talked about aunt, but I forgot that Lan'er is the youngest. She should have saluted first and asked aunt to forgive Lan'er for her recklessness."
He said this like a young master, which immediately made everyone present laugh.
Even Daiyu couldn't argue with him, even though she was a little bit dumbfounded when she heard this.
But he also took this opportunity to find a step and said:
"I was rude first, but I set a bad example for a little person like you. Now I also apologize to you, so let's make things even, okay?"
"But……"
Jia Lan wanted to say something after hearing this, but Li Wan quickly interrupted.
Her original intention just now was to tell Jialan to stop talking.
Unexpectedly, Jia Lan thought that he was reminding him of his discourtesy.
Looking at Jia Lan's appearance at this time, Li Wan knew that he still had something to say.
So he quickly took over the conversation and said:
"There is no way for an aunt to apologize to her nephew. Sister Lin, please don't spoil him."
Lin Daiyu smiled reluctantly when she heard this, but immediately praised:
"We haven't seen each other for half a year. Lan'er has grown up so much and learned so many things. The scholarly family is indeed well-deserved."
One sentence praised everyone present.
Li Mengshi, one of the parties involved, was not easy to deal with, but she smiled and said: "You two sisters-in-law are quite close to each other."
"Reporting to my aunt, when I was in Rongfu, Sister-in-law Zhu taught us girls and led us to recite acupuncture."
Hearing the question from the elder Li Mengshi, Lin Daiyu did not dare to be careless at all.
She replied a little cautiously, fearing that Jialan would find fault again.
After that, he explained the rudeness just now and said:
"I have been back to Jiangnan for more than half a year, but I often think about my life back then."
"That's why I was so surprised when I suddenly saw Sister-in-law Zhu today, and this made my aunt laugh."
Seeing that she was still concerned about what happened before, Li Mengshi suddenly laughed and said:
"They are all members of our own family, what's the joke?"
"Although I am your sister-in-law's mother, I am also Yibo's master wife."
At this point, he also joked: "Besides, the marriage between you and Yibo was originally decided by your uncle, me, and your father."
Lin Daiyu blushed immediately when she heard this and said in a voice like a mosquito:
"Auntie, don't talk about this anymore."
Li Wan smiled when he saw this, and quickly came to the rescue: "Sister Lin, will you go back with me tomorrow?"
Speaking of this, he remembered the situation in the house and said:
"My ancestors miss you very much and often ask for news about you."
"All the sisters say that Baoyu is the heart of our ancestors, and Sister Lin is the soul of our ancestors."
Speaking of this, she covered her mouth with her hands and chuckled:
"They say you can't live without your heart and soul, but without your soul, you also have no energy!"
