Last night, my third uncle Zheng Yuanxiao returned home with the braised food and braised pork prepared by Zheng Sisi, and was besieged by the whole family. The whole family was relieved when they learned that Zheng Sisi would come to the house tomorrow.

After enjoying a meal that they had never seen or heard of before, they went back to their respective courtyards to sleep, all looking forward to Zheng Sisi's arrival the next day.

Early in the morning, Duke Zheng and General Zheng attended the morning court and then asked for leave to go home. The people in the mansion were waiting for Zheng Sisi at the gatehouse.

Many carriages passed by the mansion gate, but there was no carriage belonging to Zheng Sisi. She had already drunk two pots of tea at the gatehouse, waiting anxiously.

Duke Zheng asked his third son, "Did you drink too much last night and misheard?"

General Zheng defended himself and assured him aggrievedly: "There was absolutely no messenger. It was Sisi herself who said she would come today. Maybe there were too many things to do in the mansion and she was delayed."

Everyone in the mansion stared at him, as if they were certain that he was lying.

After waiting for a while in this disharmonious atmosphere, a carriage finally stopped at the gate of the mansion.

Zheng Sisi got off the carriage and looked up at the gate of the mansion. The four characters "Dingguogong Mansion" were majestic and wild, and the stone lions at the gate were domineering and majestic. I haven't been to this place for more than ten years, but it is still so majestic.

Someone at the gatehouse saw the carriage stop and shouted, "It's coming, it's coming!"

Hearing the sound, the whole family rushed out.

Zheng Sisi was also shocked to see so many people coming towards her.

I opened my eyes wide and looked carefully to make sure that these were all relatives and felt relieved.

The one running in the front was the Duke, followed by his aunt and second aunt supporting his wife. Zheng Sisi was surrounded by them all of a sudden and was a little nervous.

He opened his mouth and called out, "Grandfather, Grandmother."

The Duke's wife was the first to reply: "Alas, my dear granddaughter has really grown up!"

After saying this, tears began to flow. The Duke's wife wanted to touch Zheng Sisi's face with her trembling hands.

Zheng Sisi grabbed the Duke's wife's hand and held it tightly.

In fact, seeing the old Duke and his wife reminded Zheng Sisi of modern grandparents, who were just as kind and treated her very well. Zheng Sisi felt sad and her eyes turned red.

"Grandfather, grandmother, Sisi was ignorant before and hurt your feelings."

The Duke's wife said, "It's okay, it's okay, we will go back home first."

Zheng Sisi nodded with tears in her eyes: "Okay." Then she asked a few maids to take the gifts down from the car.

Seeing so many gifts, Duke Zheng complained: "Why did you bring so many gifts when you came to my grandparents' house? You should keep them for yourself so that you can have them with you in the future."

Zheng Sisi: "Grandfather, these are just small gifts, not worth much."

My third uncle quickly arranged for his servants to help take the gifts.

When they arrived at the reception room in the front yard, the Duke's wife did not sit in the main seat. Instead, she sat on the side and held Zheng Sisi's hand tightly.

Looking at the room full of people, Zheng Sisi was impressed by the large number of people in the big family. This is the eldest uncle, the second uncle and several cousins ​​are not at home, if they were all in the hall, there would be no room.

Seeing a little boy of about four or five years old standing in front of a young woman across the street, Zheng Sisi asked, "Grandma, who is this child?"

The Duke's wife said, "Oh, this is your eldest cousin's son, his name is Xiao Hao."

The Duke's wife waved at the child and said, "Xiaohao, come to your aunt and let her see you."

The little boy obediently walked up to Zheng Sisi and looked at her with his big eyes blinking.

Zheng Sisi was so touched by her cute look that she held him with one hand, thinking about what gift to give him.
