Chapter 943: Broken Golden Beach, Without a Backbone
en I went to court, I was still thinking about buying her jewelry on the way back. I was so happy that she finally remembered I was her son! But it turns out, she was just trying to stabilize me and..."This isn't the place to talk, let's go home and discuss it later." Li Laosan said, and everyone realized there were many people around them.
Especially Jia Yin, she should be confined in the palace right now. If anyone saw her, there would be another scandal.
Jia Ren invited Lu Zong, “Let’s go to the Earl’s Mansion for a meal, and then head home”
Lu Cong was very smooth and had a good eye for things.
At this point, everyone was quite exhausted, and the Li family had much to say. As an outsider, it would be inappropriate for him to stay and listen, so he smiled and said, "No, I'll go home and rest for two days. We can all go together to visit Brother Jia the day after tomorrow."
"Alright, just have someone let me know if anything comes up." Jia Ren didn't insist. He nodded and sent Lu Zong onto the Lu family carriage.
Once the Lu family carriage had left, the Li family's people quickly returned to the Earl's Mansion.
Li Laoer and the Marquis were already waiting.
Wan'er had even prepared a feast and was waiting at the second gate, idly dangling her legs.
Upon seeing her husband, instead of asking about his exam results, she said, "Husband, how do you and the sixth brother feel Are there any discomforts Should we invite Zhang Shenyi to take your pulse"
Jiārén grasped her hand and replied, “Don’t worry, my brother and I are just very tired, the rest is fine.”
Only then did Wan'er feel relieved. Seeing her younger sister-in-law behind her, she was even more delighted.
"Sister, how did you get out of the palace!"
She grabbed her younger sister's hand and pulled her inside, "The palace has lifted the seal, did you sneak out Will there be trouble if you go back I made a few spring shirts for you, remember to take them when you leave."
Li Lao San and Li Lao Si and others walked aside, listening and watching, truly satisfied with this niece-in-law.
Over the past few months, with the old lady and others away from home, I initially thought this niece-in-law would only be able to take care of Jiaren's food and clothing. Unexpectedly, both at home and outside, she handled everything extremely well.
A family as large as the Li family, finding a good daughter-in-law would be enough to help the family thrive for three generations!
Soon, they arrived at the main hall of the courtyard. Everyone took their seats and were served hot tea and snacks.
Jia Ren and Li Ge'er ate a few snacks to tide them over, then had a cup of hot tea each, and their complexions improved considerably.
Li Lao'er inquired about the exam questions and, upon hearing Jia Ren and Li Ge'er say they did well, he no longer worried.
The most concerning thing for everyone was still how Jiayin was doing in the palace. Although they knew being confined to the palace wasn't a real punishment, Jiayin hadn't come out in eight or nine days.
Jia Yin knew her family was thinking of her, so she told them about life in the palace in detail. They were all small things about eating, drinking, playing and having fun, but her family listened with great interest.
Jia Yin giggled and said, "Mu Ge brought me out secretly this time, it wasn't easy. I'll stay for two more days before going back. Besides, Zuo You Zhi Lan Palace is also closed off, no one dares to get close, so they won't find out that I'm gone."
Everyone was naturally delighted, and Wan'er said, "I'll find two sets of your seventh brother's clothes for you later. Change into them, and go for a stroll or go back to Suijin Beach – no one will recognize you."
"Good idea, I'll listen to my sister-in-law," Jiayin giggled leaning against her sister-in-law's arm, "It's been a long time since I've been back to Suijintan. I heard it's spring plowing season now, it's just the right time to go back and take a look."
Jiarren also said, "I've been thinking about this all the time too."
"Brother Li said, 'It's still more comfortable to sleep in the old house. Why don't we just go back today'"
Everyone couldn't help but laugh.
Li Lao Si said, “You all should go back. I still have to return to the barracks.”
Li Lao San also said, “Just pass the exam smoothly, I should head back to the academy.”
Jia Ren immediately replied, "Third Uncle, I'll write a letter to the dean and you can take it back for me. He must be thinking about us. After the results are released, I will go back to visit him."
"Good, it's a small matter." Li Lao San readily agreed.
The crowd said they would do it, all excited and ready to eat before heading back to Suijin Beach.
Soon, the food was served. Everyone chatted and ate, making quite a lively scene.
After dinner, the Lord and Li Laosi went back to the camp by the river.
Li Laosan went back to the academy, while Jia Huan stayed at the tavern and Li Laoer took charge at the Earl's mansion.
As for the rest, Jiarren took his wife and children, as well as his younger brothers and sisters, and they all returned to Suijin Beach together.
It is spring, when all things flourish. Orioles fly and grass grows tall, and a gentle breeze warms the air. It's the best season of the year.
Jia Yin had changed into men's clothing and was sitting on the carriage with Tong Li, chatting and laughing, her eyes sparkling with joy.
Mu Xu flicked the reins in his hand, lightly tapping the horse's back. Listening to the bickering between the siblings, he couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.
The village head and the young men of the village were busy, even the women and children had gone down to the fields.
The fruit trees on the mountain need to be tended, weeded, and fertilized.
The field needs to be plowed and loosened.
Both the pigsty and the coop needed to be stocked with piglets and chicks, and the vegetable shed was producing vegetables in bulk. It was truly a time when everyone wished they had eight hands.
Suddenly seeing Li's family return, the village chief was overjoyed. He waved his smoking pipe and greeted them, immediately recognizing Jia Yin at first glance.
The village head was startled and quickly asked, “Your Highness, is everything alright in the palace”
Jia Yin laughed and waved her hand, saying in a low voice, "Village Head, there's nothing happening at the palace, but it's still under lockdown. I miss my home too much, so I snuck back to have a look."
The village head immediately called a half-grown boy and told him to spread the word throughout the village, fearing that someone might be unaware of the situation or leak the news.
Jiarren jumped out of the car, Jia Yin and Lig'er also got out. The three siblings walked slowly back to the village with the village chief.
On the road, I asked about village trivia. The village head talked endlessly; he had a whole belly full of things to say!
Recently, almost all members of the Li family have been in the city. Some went for official business, some took exams, and some went to the palace.
Although the villagers knew that the Li family would not give up Suijin Beach, they were still uneasy in their hearts.
Especially with spring planting approaching, the annual planting of cucumbers is always overseen by the county magistrate.
Now that the fields are almost ready for harvest, and there is still no sign of the watermelon vines, people are even more anxious.
Jia Yin quickly said, "Village Chief, the melon seedlings are ready. We can deliver them tonight, and you can plant them tomorrow."
The village head was overjoyed and replied, "Really It's not just our village, there are several places in Da Huai Village too. All together, it's a considerable number."
Jiayin was idle in the palace, having nothing to do. She had already cultivated the melon vines well, and now she patted her chest proudly.
"Grandpa village head, don't worry, there will be enough to plant."
The village head let out a sigh of relief, and the wrinkles on his face deepened as he smiled. "That's good, that's good."
As they arrived at the old house, the village head asked about the situation in Quanzhou to the south.
It is said that Liu Yang and Jia Yi are both married, and Jia Xi also has a wife and children. In half a month, he will return with the fleet. The village head is more at ease and clamoring to go to see the envoys entering Beijing when the time comes.
Jia Ren readily agreed, not only would he become the village head, but he would also bring Zhao Shu and the others along to join in the fun.
The village head, satisfied, turned his head and returned to the fields to continue his work.
Wan'er and Jia Yin were busy tidying up the old house and the county princess's mansion. When they finally had free time, Jia Ren and Li Ge'er were already asleep.
Back to where they grew up, they felt extra secure and couldn't resist Zhou Gong's invitation to play chess in a dream.
Time flew, and in two days' time, the melons and vines were planted throughout the village, and Jia Yin should return to the palace.
She really didn't want to leave, but she couldn't stay at the palace for too long.
When night fell, she secretly slipped back into the palace with Mu Xu.
Today's update is here ~~Grandma Li and the aunts, otherwise you would be eating alone.""Haha, alright, alright. Your mother was wrong to blame you. Mothers always say that once a daughter gets married she's like water spille...
