Rebirth: Fu Jia Returns

Chapter 48
Mrs. Anping Hou led Fu Jia's parents all the way to the old lady's yard.

When he reached the gate of the courtyard, he was stopped by Muzhu, the maid beside the old lady.

"The old madam said that she is a little tired from the morning class today, so let the relatives from my hometown be entertained by the madam, so I don't need to see her."

Mu Zhu's words were tactful, but in fact, the old lady just said "I don't see".

Mrs. Anping Hou naturally knew what the old lady meant, especially the people in the big house, the old lady was out of sight and out of mind.

This is already giving them a lot of face. If a few years ago, no one dared to come to the big room, they would be kicked out by the old lady when they reached the door.

Fu Ping and his wife naturally knew the old lady's heart knot and temper, and waved their hands again and again: "Don't dare to disturb the old lady's rest, please take care of the old lady, we will leave first, leave first."

Mrs. Anping Hou returned to the flower hall with two people.

Arriving here, Fu Ping and his wife let go a lot, especially Fu Jia's mother, her eyes rolled around, looking at the ornaments and decorations in the flower hall, wishing to stick her eyes on it.

"Hey, I'm talking about Mrs. Hou's brothers and sisters. Your conditions are not bad. No wonder everyone wants to be a high official. Hey, they say that if you become a high official, you can get rich. It's true."

While Fu Jia's mother was talking, she stood up and stretched out her hand to touch this side and rub it there.

Mrs. Anping Hou's complexion was a little bad, after all she was well-mannered and did not speak.

But Fu Rong couldn't help but choked and said: "Hey, you should take care of you, if you hit me, you won't be able to afford it!"

As soon as Fu Rong's words came out, Fu Jia's mother immediately became upset, pointed at Fu Rong and said coldly, "Hey, who are you, little girl, you don't have the right to speak here!"

"I'm the second girl of the Anping Marquis's Mansion. I just want to remind you that these are all gifts from the emperor. If they are broken, don't say that you really can't afford to pay them back. It will be ugly if you report to the government later and make a fuss." Fu Rong said to scare her.

As soon as she heard that it was a gift from the imperial court, Fu Jia's mother quickly withdrew her hand.

Even though she is in the country, she has seen the play, and if there is an imperial gift dropped there, her head will be beheaded.

However, she was unwilling to be stopped by a little girl, so she gave her a sideways look and said, "You are young, you have sharp teeth and sharp mouth!"

"It's not as good as you..." Fu Rong retorted, but was interrupted by Mrs. Anping Hou: "Okay, Sister Rong, you can't talk like this to your elders."

Fu Rong pouted, then muttered silently: "I'm not respectful for the old."

Fu Jia sat on the chair, feeling heavy in her heart.

It turned out that these were her original parents, it turned out to be like this, she only met with these two for one night, and then followed Mother Jiang to Beijing.

Although that night, she could feel that Fu Jia's parents were selfish and philistine, but unexpectedly, after seeing such a scene, Fu Jia felt that she began to blush.

Mrs. Anping Hou stopped Fu Rong, and then smiled slightly: "I didn't know that Brother Fu Ping and his sister-in-law were coming, but I was a little neglectful. Children don't know how to speak, so don't mind."

Fu Jia's mother rolled her eyes, said "yell", and said, "The girls in the capital are not as sensible as our country girls, right Jiajia? Look, we Jiajia are so cute."

Fu Jia's mother never forgot to praise her daughter.

Fu Rong suddenly became angry, and was gently tugged by the bell behind her, but she stopped talking, turned around and gouged Fu Jia hard.

Really, like a daughter, like a mother!

Fu Jia's mother naturally saw Fu Rong's wink, hey, she didn't dare to talk to her, but bullied her daughter, that's amazing!

Before she could say anything, Fu Jia's father coughed and swallowed it silently.

Fu Jia's father picked up Mrs. Anpinghou's words, and said with a smile: "Didn't you receive a letter from the Hou's mansion, saying that Jiajia was homesick? The old patriarch specifically ordered us to come to the capital. The patriarch and his family members are visiting Madam, Madam has been ill for so long, the old Patriarch has long wanted to send someone over to take a look, but the journey is far away, and the departure will not change, but the old Patriarch misses Lord Hou and the Hou Mansion very much, and often talks about it."

Mrs. Anping Hou heard this, and said with a smile: "Thank you, old patriarch and elder brother Fu Ping, for thinking about it. It really made the patriarch worry."

Fu Ping tapped the dry tobacco in his hand again and coughed.

He is addicted to smoking, and when he stops smoking for a while, he can't help but want to cough.

Mrs. Anping Hou ordered the maid to bring Fu Ping some hot tea, and he took a sip before he stopped coughing.

Putting down the teacup, Fu Ping said again: "Seeing that Madam is in good spirits now, we are relieved. The second thing is to see Jiajia. Be obedient, if you offend Madam, you won’t be able to spare her. As for homesickness, Master Hou and Madam spoiled her, so it’s not as comfortable as staying here in the country? Madam, don’t worry, since we’re here, we must discipline her well. This girl."

I don't know why, after Fu Ping's words, Mrs. Anping Hou's heart was twisted, and she couldn't help but glanced at Fu Jia worriedly.

Seeing Fu Jia sitting there with her head bowed, she didn't speak, the whole person fell silent, she didn't have the kind of longing and joy of seeing her relatives at all, and she didn't have the laughter and joy of these days.

Mrs. Anping Hou couldn't help being a little suspicious. Fu Jia also committed suicide by stealing the lake because she didn't want to go to the capital. Is it true?
Except for the exaggerated performance at the door, Fu Jia's parents never looked at Fu Jia in the eye again, let alone missed their children.

After a moment of silence, Mrs. Anping Hou smiled and said, "Sister Jia is very sensible, even though she is young, she has been taking care of me these days."

"That's good. Jiajia's task is to accompany Madam. If you don't do well, please tell me. This is what the old patriarch told me."

Fu Ping hurriedly laughed, and then turned to Fu Jia, his face suddenly became serious: "Jiajia, don't forget, how did the old patriarch explain, how can you forget the old patriarch's order because of such trivial things as homesickness? "

Fu Jia sighed deeply in her heart.

Then he raised his head, imitating the original body, and said obediently: "Don't worry, Father, Jiajia knows what to do."

Fu Ping nodded in satisfaction.

Fu Jia's mother also reprimanded her: "Don't always pay attention to your country's broken things. Look at your body and head now, ah? That's not so delicate."

Fu Jia's mother was so envious.

Fu Jia didn't say anything, just nodded.

Mrs. Anping Hou couldn't stand it anymore, so she said: "Brother Fu Ping and his sister-in-law must have been tired all the way, so I ordered the servant girl to ask you two to go to the guest room to rest. The Marquis won't be back until evening. Let the wind wash away the dust."

No matter what, what the master should do must be done.

Fu Ping and his wife were really tired, so they naturally agreed.

Before leaving, Fu Jia's mother grabbed Fu Jia and smiled, "Let's go, talk to mother."

Mrs. Anping Hou's eyes fell on Fu Jia's tightly clenched hands, and the knuckles holding the handkerchief turned white.
