In the evening, the three Su Jinrui brothers stopped at the door of Rong's house with gifts.
The neighbors were all shocked. It was not easy for a coroner from the Rong family to have so many high-ranking officials as friends. They had to be more respectful to them in the future.
The three brothers dismounted from their horses, called out to their parents, and then raised their hands to salute Rong Bowen, "Hello, Uncle Rong."
My father has already recognized Rong Bowen as his brother. They are grateful to him for raising their sister so well, and they call him Uncle Rong willingly and sincerely.
"Okay, okay." Rong Bowen smiled with wrinkles on his face, "Please come in, please come in."
Rong Bowen and his son welcomed the guests in. With so many gifts, they had to clear out a room to put them. Since they were for Amu and Linlang, they let them take charge of the arrangements.
Linlang and Amu knew in their hearts that this was Su Nanting's love for them, and the couple stepped forward to thank Su Nanting and his wife.
The three Su Jinrui brothers didn't expect that when they met again, Linlang really became their sister.
Linlang came over and called out to everyone one by one, "Big Brother, Second Brother, Third Brother."
"Hello, little sister."
The three brothers took out the carefully prepared gift and gave it to Linlang.
"Thank you, eldest brother, second brother and third brother." After recognizing her brothers and receiving so many gifts, Linlang looked at her three handsome brothers and smiled happily.
Next, it was Amu's turn to meet his three brothers, who also received carefully prepared greeting gifts. The three brothers also reached out and patted Amu on the shoulders.
The eldest and third brothers were okay, but the second brother was very strong and Amu was almost knocked to the ground by him.
Su Nanting laughed heartily, "Your second brother is born with supernatural strength. He has already used up his strength. Otherwise, you would have been lying on the ground, unable to get up, and your shoulder would have been dislocated."
Amu admired his second uncle very much because he was so capable. Moer ran over and hugged Su Jinchen's arm to study him carefully.
Rong Yi suddenly became the fifth brother from the eldest brother, and he was convinced. He felt at ease that his sister had four more expert brothers to protect her.
Su Jinnian privately told Su Jinyao about what happened in the capital. "You did a good job. When my father came back, he went straight to the palace with firewood on his back to apologize, and even asked the emperor to beat him with a stick. The old lady was really scared."
"Do you know why father was able to come here so smoothly and bring so many gifts?"
Su Jinyao said, "It wasn't brought secretly. Was the gift really prepared by grandma?"
"Father directly brought up the Emperor, saying that if I didn't prepare a gift to apologize, Grandma would go to jail." Su Jinnian said sarcastically, "The old lady is so concerned about her reputation, how could she go to jail? It would be better to kill her, so I had no choice but to do as he said."
Su Jinyao sneered, "The older she gets, the more confused she becomes. She's capable of causing chaos in the imperial examinations. If the emperor hadn't considered her grandfather and father's hard work and contributions, he would have punished anyone else long ago. She should have been sent to jail for a few days to teach them a lesson."
"Father was a bit ruthless this time. He didn't indulge Grandma and taught her a lesson. She can now live in peace for a while."
He asked, "What about Gu Yuanfang? Did you teach her a lesson?"
Su Jinnian explained the situation, "Even the heavens couldn't stand it. We didn't do anything, but she got the retribution herself. Now she's confined to reflect on her mistakes. She can't come out and cause trouble for a month or two."
"What a pity." Su Jinnian said regretfully, "I wanted to give her a husband, but she didn't have the blessing."
To avoid her from bothering her elder brother, God is not on her side.
Su Jinnian whispered to Su Jinyao, "I heard she fell into the water to spy on a man. Later, after I checked where the men were standing and what they were doing, I figured out that she was looking at the Fourth Prince."
"You have a good eye. The Fourth Prince is the best looking of the princes and seems the most gentle and easy to get along with."
Su Jinyao touched his chin and said, "If the Dongping Marquis Mansion is involved with the Fourth Prince, wouldn't it mean that our family has taken sides? This is not acceptable."
The royal family members may appear gentle and harmless on the surface, but they are ruthless and cruel in private, and are not easy to deal with.
Su Jinnian assured his brother, "I've already sent someone to keep an eye on them. I won't give them a chance to hook up."
Twin brothers may look different, but they think alike.
Su Jinyao told Linlang and Amu these things privately, "Don't worry, we will keep an eye on Grandma and Gu Yuanfang and won't let them hurt you."
"Thank you, Fourth Brother." Linlang felt that Song Shi was the most deserving of protection. "After Mother returns to Beijing, she will definitely be bullied. Brothers, please protect her."
Su Jinyao nodded, "Don't worry, Mom is much stronger now than before, and not so weak anymore. Besides, Dad has realized that he can't let the old lady do whatever she wants, and he will protect Mom. Plus, with the four of us brothers, we'll be fine."
"Um."
Suddenly, there was a pair of parents and four brothers, and they loved her so much. Linlang had the illusion that she had traveled to a group-loved novel.
She is no longer alone like in her previous life. Now she has so many relatives who love, care for and protect her. This feeling is so good and so happy.
Rong Bowen was happy to have so many more people in the family. He slaughtered chickens and sheep to welcome Su Nanting and his three sons.
The whole family was lively and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
Su Nanting asked his three sons, "You are too slow. If you come any later, you will miss dinner."
"Father, you might not know that you were running too fast and didn't pay attention to the people on the road." Su Jinrui said, "Halfway, we met the old chief priest. He said that his daughter, son-in-law, and grandson were busy and couldn't return to Beijing for the Mid-Autumn Festival, so he came to Guliang County to accompany them."
Su Jinchen imitated the old chief priest's demeanor and tone and said, "The one riding away just now was your father, Marquis Anchang, right? Tsk tsk tsk, he is indeed young and in good health. He can ride a horse so quickly after being beaten with a stick."
"As expected, he has been fighting outside for many years, so his body is strong and can bear it. But I am not so good. I feel like I am falling apart when I sit in the carriage."
Su Nanting snorted in his heart. He remembered that in the palace, the old chief priest said to him in a sarcastic tone, "The Marquis really has a good mother. The Marquis's filial piety is touching."
It's almost like saying that he is foolishly filial.
Military generals and civil officials have always disliked each other. When Su Nanting met the old chief priest, he was a scholar and an elder, so he didn't dare to talk back because the emperor was watching him.
At that time, I could only keep admitting my mistakes, but I didn't expect that the old priest was still angry.
Civil officials are not as dignified as their military generals.
Su Nanting chuckled, "Thank you for your concern, old man. When I return to the capital, I will visit him in person and apologize to him."
After saying that, he looked at Amu and said, "Study hard and enter the Imperial College in the future. If you can become the closed disciple of the old chief priest, you will be very lucky."
"Don't worry, father-in-law, I will work hard." As for being the apprentice of the old chief priest, Amu thought of something that happened a long time ago.
Su Jinyao said, "Whether you can enter the Imperial College is a matter for the future. The results will be announced tomorrow. Whether you can pass the examination and become a scholar will determine whether you can embark on the path of the imperial examination."
Su Nanting immediately decided, "Tomorrow our family will accompany Amu to see the list."
