Wei Xun and Mrs. Wu from Beidi were so happy that they couldn't open their mouths from ear to ear when they received Xiao Qing'er's letter.
The two of them had already prepared the betrothal gifts for the Zhou family, immediately packed their things overnight, and headed towards Changliu with their people.
The capital of Beidi is still some distance away from Changliu Village.
Madam Wu and the others were very fond of this marriage, and regardless of their current status, they had to come in person. ?.?????.???
On the way, Mrs. Wu was very nervous. She held the handkerchief with both hands and looked back from time to time. "Are those pair of wild geese okay?"
The palace maid lowered her head and replied: "Your Majesty, the geese are eating. Everything is fine."
A group of them dressed up in disguise and sat down to dress. Those who didn't know it thought they were from some big family coming to recruit them.
Madam Wu put down the handkerchief and looked back, "Is the phoenix crown prepared for the princess still there?"
The palace maid smiled and said: "My queen, don't worry, they are all here. I will take all the slaves with me when I go out this time."
Madam Wu smiled, patted her chest and said, "It's been a long time since I've been back to Changliu Village. I really miss you."
Wei Xun on the side said the same thing.
The two of them have experienced a lot from a poor couple hiding in Changliu Village to the king and queen of a country.
Among them, Wei Xun wanted to take a concubine, which broke Lady Wu's heart.
Later, when Xiao Qing'er made such a fuss, Wei Xun seemed to have realized something and never mentioned the matter of having a concubine again. Over the years, he had tried his best to avoid Zhao's difficulties and only had one queen, Lady Wu.
The relationship between the two gradually became better and better.
Mrs. Wu was very grateful to the Zhou family for taking them in, and she hoped to take Mianmian as her daughter-in-law.
Previously, Nanyi Country proposed Mianmian's marriage, which made her so anxious that she didn't sleep well for several nights.
In addition to being afraid that she would not be able to have such a good daughter-in-law, I was even more afraid that this little girl would be bullied when she got married in the future.
In her eyes, if Mianmian marries Qing'er, she and Wei Xun will definitely treat her like their own daughter, and no one will dare to bully her.
Now that she finally got what she wanted, she was naturally happy and nervous.
She was afraid that Du Wanchun and Zhou Ruiyuan would not be satisfied with the son-in-law, so they couldn't make any mistakes in hiring him.
However, when they arrived at Changliu Village, Mrs. Wu realized that she had overthought everything.
No matter how time passes, no matter what high position the Zhou family is in, Du Wanchun is still the same Du Wanchun, and Zhou Ruiyuan is still the same Zhou Ruiyuan.
The gentle woman who would pull her to call Sister Wu, and the prince who would roll up his sleeves and cook by himself.
When Mrs. Wu saw Du Wanchun, her eyes suddenly turned red.
It turns out that over the years it has become just the couple.
Du Wanchun had not seen Mrs. Wu for a long time. She welcomed her into the house with a smile, "Sister Wu, it's been a hard journey. Come on, go inside."
She helped Mrs. Wu into the back room and sat down together.
Madam Wu has changed a lot in the past few years. Although her appearance is the same as before, her eyes have changed and she has become much more haggard than before.
She seems to have gained a lot of weight. It seems that it is not easy to be the princess of Beidi Kingdom.
Mrs. Wu sat down, looked up at the renovated old house, her nose was slightly sore, "Wan Chun, when I saw this house, all the memories of the past came before my eyes. Why did it change after it was so good before?"
Du Wanchun knew what she meant.
Although Mrs. Wu and Wei Xun have a good relationship now, Wei Xun's desire to have a concubine eventually became a thorn in the side between them.
Wei Xun followed Zhou Ruiyuan and walked slowly towards the house. He happened to hear these words and felt a trace of guilt on his face.
He didn't accept the concubine out of empathy at the time. The people in the court were pressing hard, and he had no choice but to compromise with the minister.
Now that I think about it, it was because he had just ascended to a high position that he ignored the heart of the old man.
Now he looked at the familiar little house in front of him, and gradually understood why Xiao Qing'er was willing to give up his position as prince and stay here with Mianmian.
Compared with the overwhelming power, living a carefree and ordinary life with the person you like is a luxury.
"Wangchun."
Wei Xun called to Du Wanchun gently.
Du Wanchun raised his head, stood up and said with a smile: "Brother Wei, you are here."
At this time, Wei Xun had already given up his pretensions in the Beidi Palace, and slowly came to Madam Wu as he had done before, "How are Wanchun and Ruiyuan doing these years?"
Du Wanchun smiled and said, "Except for worrying about a few children, Ruiyuan and I are fine. Where are Brother Wei and Sister Wu?"
Wei Xun slowly put his hand on Madam Wu's shoulder and looked at Madam Wu, with a touch of tenderness and guilt on her face, "We are the same, except for worrying about the child, everything else is fine."
When Madam Wu heard his words, her eyes filled with tears.
I don’t know if I am sad or moved.
Wei Xun has been trying to make up for his mistakes for more than ten years.
Mrs. Wu recalled what they had done in this small house, and gradually let go. She raised her hand and gently placed it on the back of Wei Xun's hand, "Yes, I was just worried about the child. Now that Mianmian can get engaged to Qing'er, we It can be considered as a matter of course."
Du Wanchun poured tea for the two of them, took the refreshments brought by Eunuch Zhang, and slowly placed them on the table, "Qing'er and Mianmian have known each other since childhood, and they have a deep relationship. We can rest assured."
When Mrs. Wu heard what Du Wanchun said, her original worries were wiped away.
As the four of them reminisced about old times, the betrothal gifts of the Wei family were brought in one by one.
