Sisi stayed at home for two days, then went to talk to General Niu about what problems she might encounter next before preparing to go back.
Everyone was reluctant to let Sisi leave, and they all held her up to talk to her.
Jiulang tugged at Sisi's sleeve and asked, "Sixth Sister, when will you be back next time?"
Fei'er took out all the good things she had saved up. "Sixth sister, here you go."
When Xiao Ba saw that Fei'er had collected so many good things, she immediately said, "Sixth Sister, I'll collect good things for you too in the future."
...
More than fifteen minutes later, Sisi and Lao Hei finally came out of the house.
Sisi wiped non-existent sweat from her forehead. "Phew... finally out. Next time we'll sneak out."
"Um."
After leaving the city, Lao Hei let the horse run freely.
Soon, Sisi and Lao Hei arrived in Liaocheng.
Feng Chan was chatting with Grandma Feng when Sisi walked in from the doorway. "Mom, I'm back. Grandma Feng, were you waiting for me?"
"Yes." Grandma Feng looked at Sisi and smiled, "Grandma guessed you'd be back soon, so I came to wait for you. How's your aunt? Is your little cousin chubby?"
“My aunt is doing well. Grandpa Lin said that babies who are too fat are difficult to deliver. My little cousin isn’t too fat, but he’s very energetic and strong.”
"That's good, that's good. Does your little cousin look like your aunt?" Grandma Feng hoped that Xiao Mumu would look like Yun Qingying.
Firstly, Grandma Feng felt that Yun Qingying was a blessed person. Grandma Feng also felt that if Xiao Mumu looked like Yun Qingying, she would also be blessed.
Secondly, Grandma Feng felt that if Xiao Mumu looked like Yun Qingying, the Yun family would like Xiao Mushu more and treat Xiao Mumu better.
“My uncle said my little cousin looks exactly like him when he was a child.”
"How could he possibly remember what he looked like when he was a child?"
“My aunt said you told him that,” Sisi told Grandma Feng what Feng Yuanfu had said.
Upon hearing this, Grandma Feng immediately said, "I lied to him. He didn't look like your Second Uncle Feng at all when he was born. Tell Grandma what your little cousin looks like?"
"Let me draw it for you."
"good."
After Sisi finished drawing, Grandma Feng was relieved. Her eldest son didn't look like this when he was born. "Does your aunt look like your father? If so, your little cousin looks like your aunt."
"picture."
"Then your younger cousin looks like your older aunt."
Grandma Feng asked some more questions about Yun Qingying and Xiao Mumu before leaving.
After she left, Sisi looked at Fengchan curiously and asked, "How did she know that Xiao Mumu looks like my father?"
"Nephews resemble their uncles. Your cousins all look somewhat like your uncles."
Sisi understood. Grandma Feng hoped her little cousin would look like her aunt. "Mom, Lao Hei beat up my uncle."
"...Did Old Hei realize that it was Mother who asked your uncle to persuade him?"
"Um."
Feng Chan was extremely frustrated. "If Lao Hei is still not married by the time he turns forty, I'll kick you out."
Sisi: "...Mom, I am your own daughter."
"I don't care. Lao Hei is so good to you. If you don't find a good wife for Lao Hei, I'll kick you out."
“Mother, I married into the Niu family when Lao Hei was forty years old.”
"..." Feng Chan raised her hand and tapped Sisi's little head. "You're not allowed to get married before Lao Hei's wedding. In short, you and Lao Hei are bound together." You think I can't handle you? I'm your mother.
It seems the only option is to threaten the Old Man Under the Moon. "Mother, do you know where there's a temple to the Old Man Under the Moon nearby? I'll go... um... I'll go beg him."
That's more like it. "I'll have someone go and find out."
"Okay. Mother, can I eat at the big table today?"
"cannot."
Sisi hugged Fengchan's waist and rubbed against her. "Mother, I'm about to go and beg the Old Man of the Moon, please let me go to the big table for dinner. Mother, Mother, Mother."
Feng Chan pinched Sisi's cheek. "Calling me 'Mother' won't help. How old is Lao Hei? If he doesn't get married soon, no one will want him."
"Old Black is a man, and men can be anyone's man, no matter how old they are."
Feng Chan glared at Si Si. "How can that be the same? How many girls who marry old men actually like old men?"
Okay, her mother has high standards.
In her view, as long as someone is willing to marry her, it doesn't matter whether she likes the old man or his status, wealth, and jewelry.
Sisi looked at Fengchan and said, "It is different."
"Of course. Let me tell you, Lao Hei is good to you, so you have to be good to Lao Hei too. And Lao Bai, Lao Bai is all alone in Beijing. And Ma Zi, Ma Zi is not young anymore."
Old Bai isn't all alone; he's always surrounded by women. "Mother, where are Twelve and Thirteen?"
"Your father took them to the military camp."
"Oh. I'm going to wash up now."
"Go ahead. I'll have someone inquire where there's a temple dedicated to the Old Man Under the Moon."
Old Hei was bathing the horse when Sisi arrived. "My mother said that if you don't get married, I won't allow you to marry."
As he scooped water, Old Hei said, "Your mother is too idle. She should sell the servants in the house."
Sisi couldn't bear to see Fengchan so tired. "My marriage is still a long way off. I told my mother I was going to ask the Old Man of the Moon for help. My mother has gone to inquire, and you'll come with me after she finds out."
Old Hei didn't believe in these things. "Okay."
After Sisi and Lao Hei finished bathing the horse, they went back to their room to rest.
On a main road about five or six hundred miles from Liaocheng, a pregnant woman was leading a little boy towards Liaocheng.
The little boy wiped his sweat and asked, "Mom, is Liaocheng really as good as they say?"
