After lunch, they played on the street until the evening before going back. Wen Jing took advantage of the fact that he and Murong Shu were about to get married and shamelessly went to the Mu family for dinner.
When it was time for dinner, the Wen family saw that Wen Jing had not returned yet. Madam Wen sent someone to ask the gatehouse, and was told that the third young master had not returned since he left in the morning. Madam Wen then had an idea in her mind.
During the meal, Wen heard that the old lady didn't see her youngest son, so she asked her eldest daughter-in-law, "Did you send someone to call your third brother?"
Madam Wen heard her mother-in-law asking about her third brother and smiled and replied, "Mother, my daughter-in-law has sent someone to ask. My third brother has not returned since he left in the morning. I think he went to the Mu Mansion for dinner."
The old lady was not angry at all when she heard that her youngest son had gone to the Mu Mansion. As long as her youngest son was alive and healthy, she would be satisfied and did not dare to ask for too much. She told her eldest daughter-in-law, "Have someone leave the door open for your third brother. Let's have dinner."
"Don't worry, mother. My daughter-in-law has already told them." Madam Wen had already told the servants long ago. Even if she hadn't told them, none of the servants would dare to lock their third son out of the door.
"You do things in the most efficient way." Old Madam Wen was in a very good mood and was extremely satisfied with her eldest daughter-in-law.
"Mother, you are too partial!" Wen Ye muttered in a low voice, but the old lady had good hearing and still heard it. She asked her second son, "You were the same back then, didn't mother punish you?"
The old lady's words made Wen Ye stunned for a moment, then she remembered the stupid things she had done before, and suddenly said embarrassedly, "Mom, it's been such a long time, how come you still remember it?"
"Mom is not old enough to forget things. Now you think I am biased, but do you remember who opened the door for you in the middle of the night every time?" The old lady wanted to beat her second son up when she thought of the fact that her unruly second son always asked the youngest son to open the door when he came back late from Ye's house.
Wen Ye didn't dare to respond to her mother's words and could only smile foolishly. Wen Zhi and Wen Shoufu lowered their heads to eat, pretending not to hear anything.
Madam Wen and the Second Madam did not respond either. They were obviously thinking about how they and their husbands were reluctant to come home late.
The old lady didn't say anything else. After all, today was a good day and she couldn't let her second son spoil the fun.
The family finished their dinner quietly together and returned to their own yard. The second wife finally couldn't help laughing out loud.
"My mother has scolded me as her husband, why is my wife still laughing at me?" Wen Ye hugged the second wife and acted coquettishly with grievance.
"I was just thinking about our past. I wasn't making fun of my husband." The Second Lady was really thinking about the good old days. At that time, her husband was even more outrageous than her second brother. He even got caught by her father for climbing the wall in the middle of the night.
After being reminded by the Second Madam, Wen Ye also remembered those days when he was young and frivolous, and said to the Second Madam, "Madam, do you want to go shopping?"
The second wife was very tempted, but a little hesitant, after all, she still had a son to take care of. "Husband, child."
"Let Madam take care of it. It's okay. We haven't been out for a long time. How about going out today?" Wen Ye now only wanted to elope with his wife. Seeing her husband's expectant eyes, the second wife nodded.
So the two of them, who were supposed to rest, sneaked out through the back door. The gatekeeper was very surprised when she saw that it was the Second Master and the Second Mistress.
Under the surprised gaze of the gatekeeper, Wen Ye pulled the second wife out. Although it was dark, the street was still very lively. The two of them were infected by the lively scene as they walked on the street, as if they had returned to the past.
Song Yanran and Han Xu are here.
After parting with Murong Shu and his group, Han Xu played with Song Yanran for a while and was reluctant to send the girl back home.
"Axu, I should go home, otherwise my mother will be worried." Although Song Yanran was very reluctant, it was really time to go home.
Han Xu said nothing, holding the little girl's hand and walking towards the Song Mansion. He didn't even want to take the carriage today, just to spend more time with the little girl.
"Yan'er, are you happy today?" Han Xu asked Song Yanran gently. Everything he did was to make the little girl happy.
"I'm very happy to come out with Axu today. Thank you, Axu." Song Yanran replied to Han Xu with a smile.
Hearing this, Han Xu held the girl's hand even tighter. They chatted along the way and soon arrived at the Song Mansion. Han Xu felt that the distance today was so short.
"Yan'er, I'll take you to the mansion!" Han Xu was reluctant to let go of the little girl's hand. He wanted to stay with her for a while longer, so he wanted to take her in.
Just when Song Yanran was about to ask Han Xu to go back first, she heard the surprised voice of her personal maid, "Miss, are you back? Madam asked me to wait for you here."
Seeing someone coming to pick up Song Yanran, Han Xu had to give up sending Song Yanran in and reluctantly said goodbye to the girl.
Seeing Han Xu walking away, Song Yanran walked into the mansion with the help of the maid. The little maid said happily, "The uncle is so kind to the young lady. Just now, I saw that the uncle didn't want to go back at all."
"Stop talking nonsense. It's so dark, how can you see clearly?" Song Yanran pointed at the little maid's forehead with a doting look on her face.
"I can see it clearly. Besides, everyone in our mansion knows that the son-in-law treats the young lady well. If it weren't for Madam's tacit approval, the young lady would never have returned home so late."
The little maid knew very well that her mistress was very satisfied with her son-in-law.
This time Song Yanran did not refute. She knew that her mother liked Han Xu as her future son-in-law, and her father was also very optimistic about Han Xu. Her marriage to Han Xu was blessed by everyone.
"Hurry up and help your young lady. I'm so tired." Song Yanran felt sweet and happy when she was walking with Han Xu just now, but now her feet began to hurt.
"Miss, does your feet hurt?" Although it was a little dark, the little maid could still feel that Song Yanran was uncomfortable after serving her for a long time.
"A Xu wanted to spend more time with me, so we walked back." Song Yanran explained a little guiltily.
"I will support the young lady, and when we get back I will get some hot water for her to soak her feet, and check if her feet are hurt." The little maid felt very distressed, because her young lady was brought up by the madam and was not likely to walk so far.
After helping Song Yanran back to the yard, the maid told others to go to the kitchen to get some hot water, and then she turned around and went to Madam Song's yard to say that the young lady was back.
Mrs. Song originally just asked a few casual questions, but when she learned that her daughter had walked back, she quickly asked the nanny to get some medicine and asked the maid to take it to her daughter just in case.
After the maid left, Madam Song joked with Lord Song, "Our Yan'er's IQ is off the charts when she meets her son-in-law."
"It is Yan'er's blessing to have found a son-in-law. Although she has only been in the Imperial Academy for a short time at such a young age, she has done everything to the satisfaction of the Emperor. Her future is limitless."
Lord Song praised Han Xu highly, and Mrs. Song was even happier to hear that.
A good son-in-law can only make a good daughter. The most important thing is that her son-in-law dotes on her daughter very much. Sometimes Mrs. Song even feels envious when she sees her.
