"Hey..." Xiao Lingyu smiled when he heard that. "The distance between the Duke of Huguo's Mansion and the Imperial College is not that far. The Meng family wants to take Wen Ge'er back to live in the Meng Mansion."
Su Xingyi nodded, "I think so too. After all, Wen Ge'er is the blood of the Meng family. I can't stop him. I can't prevent my family from enjoying the happiness of family life."
As the children grow up, he can no longer restrain them. He must let them fly freely like eagles in the sky.
As long as the children remember him as their father, that's enough.
Xiao Xier thought that when she returned to Nankun, she would come back often to stay with her parents for a few nights while Huanghuang was still able to carry her.
The Meng family was afraid that Su Xingyi would go back on his word, so they put down their chopsticks and left the Duke of Huguo's Mansion with their three children.
Meng Gaoyang was holding Su Ningwen, Meng Zilu was holding Meng Yunqian, and Meng Zihe was holding Su Ningjie.
Meng Xuewen and his wife Meng Chen did not get to hold their child, so they rode alone in a carriage.
"Oh, what a mess!" Meng Chen sighed and complained, "I, as a grandmother, didn't even get to hold Wen Ge'er. Xuewen, you should be quicker next time! Don't let our father get there first. Besides, you're more flexible than our father. Since you can't beat him, why don't you give in to our father?"
Meng Xuewen said awkwardly, "I'm a son. I should be filial. How can I snatch the child from my father?"
"Oh! You admitted it." Meng Chen was so angry that her teeth were itching.
"Don't be angry, Madam." Meng Xuewen quickly coaxed, "Next time I'll stop Dad, and you go hold Wen Ge'er, so our Dad won't have to snatch the child from his wife."
"Humph! Next time, you won't pretend to stop me."
"No! I'm definitely really stopping you. I've only touched Wen Ge'er's head so far, and I haven't hugged him yet. Wait until you've hugged Wen Ge'er before you give it to me."
The three brothers lay on the broad, firm chest of the master. The carriage swayed as it moved on the road, and they felt like they were lying in a rocking chair and soon fell asleep.
When Su Ningjie opened his eyes again, he was lying on Meng Zihe's big bed.
"Brother Jie, are you awake?" Meng Zilu walked forward with a warm cloth and wiped the face of Su Ningjie, who was still confused.
"Brother-in-law, I remember I was still in the carriage. How come I'm here after waking up?"
"You must be exhausted, having slept for an entire hour. This is the Songhe Courtyard of the Meng Mansion, where I usually live. Get up quickly, and I'll show you around."
After Su Ningjie got dressed, Meng Zihe blindfolded him and took him to a gorgeous courtyard three hundred meters away from Songhe.
"Second brother-in-law, why don't you leave?"
"We're here." Meng Zihe took off the cloth covering his eyes and said, "Look, this is it."
Su Ningjie took in the scenery in front of him, his face filled with shock and disbelief, "Why... does this look so much like my second sister's yard?"
It's not just similar, it can be said to be a complete replica. It looks like the courtyard where Lu Yao lives was moved from Huayang County.
Without waiting for Meng Zihe's response, Su Ningjie looked around the yard, not leaving out any room or corner. Even the layout and furnishings in the piano room were exactly the same as those in his second sister's room.
Su Ningjie walked around and asked, "Did you arrange all this?"
Meng Zihe scratched his head embarrassedly, "Ah... I just came to the Meng Mansion in Beijing, and this courtyard is like this. I didn't expect it to be exactly the same as the courtyard where your second sister lives. What a coincidence."
You are kidding me.
He just walked around and saw obvious signs of renovation in some places.
My second brother-in-law is really thoughtful.
When my second sister gets married and moves in, she won’t feel unfamiliar living here.
"Oh, what a coincidence." Su Ningjie smiled and raised his eyebrows. "If Second Sister knew that there was a courtyard in the Meng Mansion that was exactly like her Little Jade Tower, she might want to come and take a look."
"Really?" Meng Zihe asked excitedly, "When will she come to Beijing?"
Su Ningjie: ...
Do you really want to marry your second sister home?
"It will be soon. After you get married, my second sister will definitely come to Beijing with you."
Wouldn't this mean we have to wait a long time?
If Brother Jie hadn't come to Beijing, he wouldn't be so anxious to see Sister Yao'er in Beijing.
"The Lu Mansion in the capital is so big, aren't you afraid to live alone?"
"Oh, Daddy won't let me go back to Lu's house, so naturally I'm not afraid."
Meng Zihe was anxious. His mother didn't understand, so could his smart brother-in-law not understand either?
Forget it, I'd better stop playing tricks and tell Su Ningjie his true thoughts directly.
"...Brother Jie, your second sister is either in Xishui County or Huayang County. If you let her come to the capital and change to a new and unfamiliar environment, she won't think about the terrible things in the past."
Su Ningjie recalled the day Lu Yuan gave birth. The reason why Lu Yao fainted was because she remembered something that had scared her before.
She couldn't go to Xishui County either. The Luo and Ye families had poisoned her there, and going there to recuperate would only remind her of those bad things.
The capital city is indeed a good choice. My second sister will marry Meng Zihe in the future and become the wife of an official, and all the people she will come into contact with will also be wives of officials.
Then come to Beijing to experience it and see it for yourself.
"Second brother-in-law, what you said makes sense. I will write to my eldest sister and grandfather. As for whether my second sister will come, it depends on whether she wants to come. If she doesn't come, you can't force her."
Meng Zihe didn't expect Su Mingjie to agree so quickly, and he was very happy in his heart, "Of course I have to obey your second sister's wishes."

When Song Jijiu returned home, Fu Xuan was already waiting in the front hall.
Song Jijiu secretly thought that this was not good. Could it be that the Empress Dowager did not want Prince Shun's child to enter the Imperial College?
But Su Ningwen is a child of the Meng family. The Empress Dowager wouldn't deny him admission to the Imperial Academy, would she?
