The next day, Shen Nian did not go to the governor's office. He waited for Eunuch Xu to get up and had breakfast with him, and then the two of them went out.
In fact, Eunuch Xu arrived in Sangluo City on the day before the full moon banquet. He just thought that there would be more people at the full moon banquet, so he could take out the royal rewards in front of everyone, so that others could see how much the emperor valued Lord Shen.
It can also be regarded as indirectly saving face for Shen Nian in front of everyone.
He also saw the scene of people coming to the door to congratulate him.
The reason why he didn’t show up at the first time was that he wanted to see what position Shen Nian held in the hearts of the people.
When he saw the interaction between the people and Shen Nian, even someone like him who was not easily moved by emotions was somewhat touched.
At that time, I thought that when I returned, I would tell the emperor truthfully what I saw and heard in Linzhou.
So I thought about taking a walk around Sangluo City.
After Madam Xu and Shen Hui got up, they heard that Shen Nian had accompanied Eunuch Xu to the street. They both knew that this might be the emperor asking Eunuch Xu to come and take a look.
"Godmother and elder sister, do you want to go shopping too?" Xia Tian asked the two of them.
"No, I'm tired. I'll take a rest for two days first."
Mrs. Xu was old after all, and she was exhausted from the long journey. She was mainly worried that she would miss the full moon banquet, so she hurried all the way.
"Well, let's talk to grandma and aunt!" Shen Hui had no intention of going out shopping.
When she came to Linzhou, she met her brother's family, her nephew, and her uncle's family.
I was so excited that I didn’t want to go anywhere!
Xia Tian just let them do as they pleased and just arranged for someone to entertain them.
"Fourth sister, Youyou's full moon banquet is over. My elder brother, my younger sister and I are all going back."
Xia Yue came to Xia Tian to talk about going back.
They have been in Linzhou for more than 20 days. They originally wanted to come and see Xia Tian and bring gifts for their nephew.
When I found out that my nephew’s full moon party hadn’t been held yet, I thought of waiting until the full moon was over before going back.
"Sister, please stay a few more days!" Xia Tian was a little reluctant. The time they spent together day and night had made her feelings for the two of them even deeper.
During this period, she could feel Xia Yue and Xia Chen's love for her and their liking for Youyou.
I sincerely hope she is doing well!
"I can't stay here any longer. Your nephew is still young and can't leave me alone." Xia Yue sighed, "There's also the family business. I'm afraid your brother-in-law can't take care of it alone."
Xia Yue is the head of the household. Although her parents-in-law usually listen to them, they all love their children and there will always be times when they are not treated equally, so she is still not at ease to let go completely.
Some things only count if they are in your own hands!
Xia Yue learned this from her parents and had long understood this truth!
"Okay, go back if you want!" Xia Tian reluctantly held Xia Yue and Xia Chen's hands, "If we move to the capital in the future, you can move to the capital to live with us!"
In the summer, I still want to live closer to my family.
Although her family is not prominent, it is very warm!
"Yes, I will definitely come!" Xia Yue nodded with a smile.
Xia Tian arranged for people to start packing things for Xia Yue and the others.
The braised food shops here have reopened, so there's no need to keep an eye on them every day.
Besides, Xia Yue and Xia Chen are two girls, so they definitely cannot be allowed to go back like this. Xia Yang has to send them back.
"Brother, I've prepared some local specialties. Share them with me when you get home." Xia Tian packed up his things and told Xia Yang, "Be sure to pay attention to safety on the road. Travel during the day and stay in the city at night. Even if you have to go a little slower, you can't travel in the dark."
"Don't worry, brother, I have walked this route several times and I won't make any mistakes." Xia Yang comforted her.
The day after the full moon banquet, Xia Yang, Xia Yue and Xia Chen were about to go back.
"Fourth sister, I can't bear to leave you!" Xia Chen hugged Xia Tian's waist and refused to let go.
"Then Xiaochen, stay and don't go back. Let your brother and sister go back!" Xia Tian said, rubbing her head.
"No, I still have to go back to help my sister-in-law take care of my nephew!" Xia Chen shook his head. "My sister-in-law is pregnant again. I can help her with some work at home."
Although Xia Chen didn't want to leave, she knew it was impossible for her to stay. There was still a lot of work waiting for her at home. Although there were servants at home, the master still had to keep an eye on them.
We can’t let her sister-in-law suffer for everything!
"Sister-in-law is pregnant again?" Xia Tian asked in surprise.
Xia Chen nodded, "Yeah, it's been more than three months."
Xia Yang felt a little embarrassed when he heard this.
Xia Tian glared at him, "Brother, you didn't even tell me about such a big happy event."
"Oh, what's there to say?" Xia Yang didn't care.
The baby hasn't been born yet. Besides, my fourth sister lives so far away, so there's no need to tell her everything.
"Straight man!" Xia Tian muttered, turned his head away, and didn't want to talk to him anymore.
When she heard that her sister-in-law was pregnant, she no longer wanted to keep Xia Chen and reluctantly sent her family away.
"Sister, you're not leaving right away, are you?" Xia Tian sent Xia Yue and the others away, then hugged Shen Hui's arm and acted coquettishly.
After a few days of bustling activity in the mansion, they all have to go back.
She really couldn't bear to do it for a moment.
"I also want to stay a few more days, but unfortunately it's almost the end of the year and I can't stay for a few more days." Shen Hui sighed. If she didn't hurry, she might not be able to go back for the New Year.
"It's running out of time anyway, why not just spend the New Year here before going back?" Xia Tian suggested.
Even if we travel quickly from Beijing to Linzhou, it will take at least a month. It's already December 3rd, and there are still more than 20 days until the Chinese New Year. It's too late.
"I don't know if my mother-in-law can handle it?" Shen Hui didn't want to rush on the road.
But she is the head of the Ning'an Marquis's Mansion after all. She has a lot of housework to do at the end of the year and also has to send New Year gifts to relatives. She doesn't know if her mother-in-law can handle it.
The main reason was that the wife of the Marquis of Ning'an was in poor health, and she had been asked to be the housekeeper since Shen Hui came into the family. She had been a hands-off manager for several years.
"Oh, it's not like you want your mother-in-law to move things herself. It's just a matter of talking. There will definitely be no problem." Xia Tian comforted her.
Mrs. Xu thought clearly, "Forget it, I can't get home before the New Year anyway, so I might as well wait until after the New Year to go back!"
She has a son and daughter-in-law at home, so it’s okay if she doesn’t go back.
"That's right. I finally came to Linzhou. I'm here to celebrate the New Year this year, and I want to feel the difference of Linzhou."
Xia Tian echoed the idea, and Shen Hui agreed without thinking for long, "Okay, let's celebrate the New Year in Linzhou!"
Anyway, the children have their grandparents and their father looking after them, so nothing should happen.
As for the housework, out of sight, out of mind. Never mind, I will spend the New Year at my brother's house this year.
"Then it's settled." Xia Tian was very happy to hear that Mrs. Xu and Shen Hui were willing to stay in Linzhou for the New Year.
Start instructing people in the mansion to make preparations for the New Year!
