The head of the family, Qi Zheng, has returned to Beijing.

Several grandchildren went to pick him up ten miles outside the city early in the morning.

Qi Youyi was waiting at the gate, pacing back and forth, turning his head from time to time to look in the direction he came from.

Suddenly, there was a sound of carriages: "The Marquis has arrived!"

Qi Youyi quickly stood in the middle of the road.

A group of people and horses came over there, and the one in the middle was an old man. When he arrived at the door, he reined in his horse.

"Father!" Qi Youyi stood respectfully with his hands hanging down and called out.

"Hmm!" Zhenyuan Hou Qi Zheng looked at his eldest son.

Qi Youyi hurried over and held the reins for his father.

Qi Zheng jumped off his horse quite skillfully.

"Father is as agile as ever!"

"You kid, you've become sweeter now that you're older." Qi Zheng was of medium height, with a gray beard, dark eyes, and a straight body. His face was gentle, but he looked majestic without even getting angry! When he was young, he was also a handsome man.

"Dad, please come in. Mom is waiting!" Qi Youyi said.

"Okay! Everyone go in first!"

A group of people walked in noisily. The housekeeper, the steward, and the soldiers were busy with their respective duties.

In the room, Tan was unusually restless.

What she wore today was much neater and more gorgeous than usual.

Xu had been feeling uncomfortable in the early stages of her pregnancy, and her complexion wasn't looking very good. Seeing Tan's expression, she said in a humorous way, "Grandma, you look particularly energetic today!"

Tan smiled and said, "Take these fine jewelry out and show them to your grandfather. He won't think that you took all the good things I gave him for free!"

Madam Qi remained calm but sneered in her heart. She preferred to talk about these boring topics.

"Grandma! Please don't wrongly accuse us!"

"I'm worried about whether your grandfather has suffered any new injuries..." Tan said with a hint of worry on her face.

"Now that you're back this time, grandpa won't leave, right?" asked Mrs. Xu.

"Who knows!? They work hard for the court and the Qi family... Alas!"

After saying that, he glanced at Madam Qi.

Madam Qi acted as if she didn't hear anything.

Xu nodded quickly, "Yes, yes! Father and Third Uncle have worked so hard."

Wang, who was just one month old and plump, also nodded. Zhang Moqing smiled but said nothing.

After a while, the maid came in: "Madam, the Marquis is back!"

Tan quickly stood up, walked out of the door in a few steps, stood under the eaves, and looked at the person who came with excited eyes.

"My Lord!" She bowed deeply, her voice filled with surprise and excitement.

This scene is rare among elderly couples.

Xu Minghui was extremely envious. She really hoped that she and Qi Xiao could be like this...

"Madam, you are polite. Let's go in and talk!" The Marquis looked at his wife seriously, raised his hand slightly, and everyone went in.

The two old men took their seats, and their children and grandchildren stood below and kowtowed in greeting.

The Marquis laughed and said, "Okay! Get up, everyone! I've brought you gifts, which I will deliver to your respective courtyards in a moment!"

Everyone thanked him again.

Tan looked and saw that Qi Youduan's wife Liu had also returned with the marquis.

This is the daughter-in-law that Tan personally chose for his son.

Generous, gentle, considerate, and gave birth to three sons. Tan was very respectful: "Amin!"

"Mother-in-law!" Liu Aimin stepped forward and saluted. Following behind her were two men, one big and one small, and a young woman.

"Yuer! And this is... Chenger?!"

"grandmother!"

Tan was really excited and looked at the two of them with slightly moist eyes.

At first glance, Qi Yue and Qi Wu look very similar.

They are about the same height, weight and waist size!

Moreover, Qi Yue was also very white, but not the jade-like white like Qi Wu, but a pale white without blood.

Thick black eyebrows and eyelashes, a pair of peach blossom eyes, and thin lips.

Not as serious as Qi Wu, but rather... carefree and flamboyant!

"Oh, my Yue'er!" Tan stretched out her hand. Qi Yue let Tan hold him and chuckled, revealing a mouthful of white teeth.

"You are so beautiful!"

Qi Zheng laughed out loud!

"What's the difference between a boy and a girl? Good-looking is good-looking! Cheng'er... he's only thirteen, and he's already so big!"

Liu Aimin said: "Mother, Quan'er is accompanying his husband this time and has not come back. Let his daughter-in-law greet you on his behalf! Let me introduce to you, mother. This is Yue'er's daughter-in-law, Zhu Manmiao." After saying that, she let the young woman behind her pass.

Zhu Manmiao stepped forward, "Greetings, grandma!"

This marriage was arranged by the son and daughter-in-law. Her father was a general, few people knew him in the capital, but he was a local emperor.

Zhu was a very thin person, not tall, petite, with watery almond-shaped eyes. She was very beautiful and had a sense of pride.

Tan looked very satisfied, and turned around to take out a set of jewelry: "I can see that you are a good child. You are back home, down-to-earth! This is your sister-in-law. If you don't understand anything in the future, just ask her!"

"Yes, sister-in-law!" Zhu and Xu Minghui greeted each other.

"Third brother's wife!" Xu and Tan were close, so she treated this third brother's wife very kindly.

"My lord, this is Zhang, Xiao Si's new wife!" Tan introduced indifferently.

Zhang Moqing stepped forward and saluted: "Greetings, Grandfather!"

The Marquis saw Zhang Moqing, who was calm and composed, and had a good impression of him: "Okay! I'll send the gift to Xiao Siyuan later!"

"Thank you, Grandfather!"

When Qi Yue heard that this was her fourth brother's new wife, she took a serious look at her, and when she saw her appearance clearly, she curled her lips.

Zhu got to know her eldest sister-in-law, second sister-in-law, and fourth brother's wife... In her opinion, these people should not be difficult to get along with.

Her family is rich and powerful. She has lived a life of luxury since she was young and has been to the capital. She is not from a small place or a small family! Don't underestimate me!

Tan asked about the Marquis' health in detail and talked about the important matters at home.

The atmosphere was very peaceful. Suddenly, Tan remembered and asked, "Why didn't you come to the palace first after you came back?"

"The Emperor has someone waiting at the city gate, and he said he'll give me two days off to rest. The paperwork has already been delivered!"

"Amitabha, the emperor is considerate! When you have rested, our house will be lively and lively!"

"good!"

"Xiaowu is getting married soon, and I've been worried that you won't be able to come back!"

The Marquis looked at his eldest son, who was old but still very energetic, as well as Qi Wu and Qi Yue, and said with a smile: "Who would have thought that our martial arts family would produce so many handsome men!"

Qi Yue saw Qi Wu looking straight ahead with no expression on his face... He was a little dissatisfied!

Tan smiled and said, "I heard that your great uncle was known as the Golden Spear and Jade Man. So, handsomeness is inherited from your ancestors!"

The Marquis laughed out loud!

After everyone talked for a while, Qi Youyi said, "Father, you should wash up and rest first. In the evening, your children and grandchildren will have a reunion dinner with you!"

…

The Marquis was indeed very tired after the journey, so he went in to take a shower. Tan personally served him by his side because she wanted to check whether the Marquis was injured.

Sure enough, she found two new ones.

One on the shoulder and one on the leg.

Tears could not help but flow out: "How old are you? Why are you still working so hard?!"

"It's okay! It's okay. This spot on my leg was scratched by a dry branch when I was hunting. It's nothing serious."

"You are so careless!"

"It's really okay." After taking a bath and changing clothes, the old couple sat down to drink tea.

Tan's eyes were filled with tears again.

"What's the matter now?!" the Marquis asked her.

"I miss Duan'er... woo, woo, I really do!"

"You, you are still so dignified, he will have grandchildren soon!"

Tan burst into laughter, "In the eyes of a mother, he will always be that proud little boy!"

"Now he is the general who has the final say."

"Does he do things to your liking?" Tan asked carefully.

"I brought it out myself, there's no mistake!"

"Alas, our family is a strict father and a kind mother. As far as I'm concerned, with such a large family, wouldn't it be good to live a good life in the capital? Why do you have to suffer outside... Just thinking about it makes me sad!"

"A real man should make great achievements! Only with the hard work of men like us can you live a good life!"

"I am from a humble background, and everything I have today was given by the Marquis! No matter how much I have, I am content!"

"You are a great guy too! This time you came back... just to do that thing!" Qi Zheng's face was solemn.

"But I am very worried! As for love, I love Youyi and Youduan the same! In fact, I love Youyi more because he has been an orphan since he was a child! I am worried that your decision will make Youyi... embarrassed. If that is the case, I would rather let Youduan suffer a little!"

"Don't worry about that! I have seen your sincerity towards the children over the years..."

Well! Another blind man!
