"Old Madam, First Madam, Second Madam... The Eldest Young Master sent someone to tell us that the Fifth Young Lady's carriage has arrived at the city gate."
Xiao Si from the General's Mansion was running and shouting. Although he was exhausted and out of breath, he still couldn't hide the joy on his face.
"That's great, that's great, my little darling is finally coming back, help me up, I want to go to the door to greet him."
When the old lady of the general's mansion heard Xiao Si's report, she supported her eldest daughter-in-law and was about to get up and go to the door to greet her beloved granddaughter.
"Mother, don't get excited yet. Shu'er just arrived at the city gate. It will probably take a while for him to arrive. You just recovered yesterday. Why don't you go out? Just wait in the yard, okay? Otherwise, what will we do if the wind blows again?"
Rong Shu's mother and second aunt hurried forward to support their mother-in-law and persuade her, fearing that something might happen to the old lady. The old lady has been in poor health and was only able to get out of bed yesterday. The imperial physician advised her to rest more.
"What's wrong with me? As long as you give my little darling back to me, I'll be cured. Stop dragging me along and come with me to wait for Shu'er. Don't you miss Shu'er?"
The old lady was a little anxious when she was pulled away. Instead of sitting down, she urged her eldest and second daughter-in-law to go out with her to wait for Murong Shu. She had been worried about this for a long time, but now everything was gone.
"Mother, but..." Rong Shu's mother Song Wei wanted to persuade her a few more times but was interrupted by her mother-in-law.
"Daughter-in-law, don't say but. If it's any later, our Shu'er will come in!"
"Yes, sister-in-law, let's listen to mother. Even if we are sitting here, our hearts are not here. Let's go to the door to welcome Shuer!" Brother's sister-in-law Rong Qing also followed suit to persuade her sister-in-law.
Song Wei hesitated for a moment, then turned to Li Ma beside her and ordered, "Go and get the new cloak I made for the young lady. It's windy outside, and Shu'er is weak, so you still have to be careful!"
"Sister-in-law is so thoughtful. Our Shu'er is not in good health, so he needs to wear a cloak!" Second Aunt Rong Qing only remembered it after being reminded by sister-in-law, and her expression was a little annoyed.
"Mother, slow down, let me and my siblings help you!"
The old woman was in a hurry to go out, her steps were a little hurried, Song Wei and Rong Qing hurried to support her, and the three of them, together with the maids and old women, walked towards the gate of the mansion in a mighty manner.
It is strange that the Mu family has only one girl, Murong Shu, in three generations. When she was born, the whole family was overjoyed. However, less than half a month later, the Taoist priest in the Valley calculated that the child would die young. She had to be sent to Tianmen Mountain to stay until she was sixteen years old to resolve her fate of dying young.
Although the Mu family was extremely reluctant to let her go, in order for Murong Shu to grow up healthily, the old lady finally decided to let the Taoist priest in the Valley take her away.
In these sixteen years, Murong Shu has never left the mountain. Every year, the Mu family would send her all kinds of treasures, but no one was allowed to go up the mountain.
Usually, they only saw Murong Shu's portrait. This time, when they knew they could take her home, all the men in the Mu family ran there except those who couldn't leave.
Murong Shu's father (Mu Shi) and second uncle (Mu Si) had a fight at home over who could go to Tianmen Mountain to pick her up. In the end, second uncle Mu Si lost to his eldest brother and had to stay at home obediently.
When the women of the Mu family walked to the front door, they happened to meet Mu Si who was riding back on horseback from court.
"Mother, sister-in-law, Qing'er, why did you come out? I thought I missed Shu'er's return home."
Mousse got off the horse and handed it to Xiao Si beside him. Seeing his mother who had just been able to get out of bed yesterday, he walked forward to greet her with a little worry.
"We wanted to see Shu'er earlier, so we came out with our mother." Rong Qing explained when she saw her husband's face full of worry.
"Mother, you just wait in the yard. When Shu'er arrives, I'll bring her in to see you, okay?" Mousse was a little worried about his mother's health.
"I'm going to wait here for my little darling. Your elder brother is usually careless, and I don't know if he can take good care of Shu'er on the way."
Although the old lady was speaking to Mousse, her eyes were looking towards the street intersection, her eyes full of worry.
"Mother, don't worry. Even if my eldest brother is careless, the maids and old women will take good care of Shu'er. If worst comes to worst, there are still several brothers around." Rong Qing saw that his mother-in-law was worried and whispered to comfort her.
"Yes, mother, the people sent by my sister-in-law have given many instructions, so you can rest assured."
Mousse only prayed that his niece's carriage would go faster so that he could see his mother, sister-in-law and daughter-in-law earlier.
After waiting for about half a quarter of an hour, the old lady first saw her eldest son and several grandchildren at the corner of the street. She asked uncertainly, "Si'er, do you think Shu'er and the others are here?"
"Mother, it's my eldest brother and the others. Our Shu'er is finally home!" Mousse was so excited that tears flowed down his face. Their Mu family had finally waited for this day.
"Congratulations, sister-in-law. We finally got our long-awaited Shu'er back." Rong Qing excitedly held his sister-in-law's hand, and both of them had tears of excitement in their eyes.
"Hurry up and wipe your tears to avoid scaring Shu'er. Shu'er is back, and our family is finally reunited. We must be happy today." As soon as the old lady spoke, several people hurriedly wiped their tears.
When the carriage got closer, I heard the voices of several grandchildren, "Grandma, mother, we got my sister back!"
Mu Shi was the first to dismount and walked up to his mother to pay his respects, but the old lady didn't even look at him and walked straight past him towards the carriage.
Mu Shi wanted to say hello to his wife, but Song Wei ignored him, her eyes were full of her own daughter in the carriage.
Just when I was about to ask my second brother how he got my mother out, he ran after her in a flash.
At this moment, Mu Shi was wondering who he was and where he was. What happened?
When the younger generations saw how their uncle was treated, they all silently gave way to their grandmother and mother. The world is big, but my sister is the greatest.
In the carriage.
Murong Shu had just been woken up by the nanny, and her expression was still a little confused. She had just traveled to this imaginary dynasty an hour ago.
Murong Shu was born into a medical family. Her grandfather was a traditional Chinese medicine inheritor, and her maternal grandfather was well-versed in Western medicine. She had studied both Chinese and Western medicine. Before she traveled through time, she had stayed in the laboratory for three days without rest. She fainted due to excessive fatigue, and when she opened her eyes again, she was already in the carriage!
Fortunately, the original owner's memory is still there, which can avoid a lot of trouble in the future.
After accepting his new identity, Murong Shu decided to be a happy parasite here, enjoying the life of being rich, good-looking and spoiled by others.
She thought that the people outside the carriage should be her relatives. Since she was occupying their bodies, she had to be filial to her elders and fulfill her responsibilities and obligations.
After preparing himself mentally, Murong Shu got off the carriage with the help of maids and old women. As soon as he got out of the carriage, he saw three ladies with tears in their eyes looking at him excitedly.
