Tao Linghua let the messenger in, but when he saw that it was Mu Ping, he was secretly embarrassed.After Mu Ping left for a few months, he even forgot that he was walking around the two houses. He is Mu Qi's bodyguard and Wu Niang's husband. If he cuts off contact with Mu's house, what will Mu Ping do?

But for now, I'd better read the letter first, and wait until I think about it.

It turned out that Mu Qi sent Mu Ping back to his hometown to pay homage to his ancestors, and he went to visit the Tao family. The eldest sister of the Tao family asked Mu Ping to bring a letter and many souvenirs. flavor.The letter also said that she gave birth to a son, who is already two years old.

Tao Linghua was very happy. There are many children in the family, so it is lively.Now seeing things and thinking about others, I feel a little restless, and I really miss my sister.

After Zhao Tai and Zhao Hua discussed it, they decided to take their family to live in Beijing, anyway, it was not short of a few bites of food.

During dinner, I discussed this matter with Tao Linghua. Tao Linghua thought about it and agreed, so that instead of traveling thousands of miles back and forth, wouldn't it be nice for the family to live together and enjoy family happiness together?

While sending people to my hometown to pick up people, I packed up the house and came out. Anyway, there are many houses in the house, and I just pack up a courtyard in the backyard and add some furniture.

Waiting and waiting until the Mid-Autumn Festival arrived, and the people who went to pick them up hadn't come back yet, so I had to celebrate the festival with my family first.

Wu Niang made moon cakes. The craftsmanship is good, and adults and children love to eat them.

I made a lot, and when I couldn't finish eating, I took some out and distributed them to beggars begging on the street.

Fortunately, this year's Mid-Autumn Festival is sunny, the moon is as bright as a mirror, and a few lonely stars hang in the sky.

A futon with a low table is set up in the yard, and the family sits around and enjoys the moon, which is very pleasant.

Huier is still young, only 6 months old, wearing a red jacket, short black hair, softly applied to her small head, white and tender round face, two big watery grape-like eyes with chaotic bones Turn around, look around, and "Yiyi Yaya" from time to time, but no one can understand what he said.

Zhao Tai took Hui'er, hugged him in his arms, rubbed his shaved cheeks against the child's tender face, Hui'er unceremoniously grabbed the broken hair on the back of his neck and pulled it hard.Zhao Tai yelled "Wow", and scolded with a smile: "Little thing, how many good things have I given you, and you still look at people's dishes like this!"

Everyone laughed, Wu Niang took the child and said with a smile: "You don't have to worry about it, the eldest son, the child's temperament is uncertain. If you are older, you will know your benefits."

Zhao Tai scratched his head.

Tao Linghua took Hui'er and held it high, and the child danced and giggled loudly.There was joy in the yard.

Although there is a bit of autumn, it is not cold, so I played in the courtyard for a while.

Wu Niang's son, Xiao Fu'er, also laughed and grabbed the fruit, while Mu Jing sat cross-legged quietly, watching with a smile.It's just that his expression was a little uncertain, and he kept looking towards the east wall.

The next door seemed to be watching the moon, and there were also children laughing, Mu Qi's child was only a few months older than Hui Er.

Tao Linghua knew what he was looking at, but he still didn't say a word, since he cut it off, let's cut it off.

As for Mu Ping, Tao Linghua thought, as the husband and wife wished, they could stay wherever they wanted.So Mu Ping still went out with Mu Qi every day, and returned to Zhao's house when he came back.

After a long time, Tao Linghua felt that it didn't matter anymore, so let it be.

After a while, the moon was in the middle of the sky, Huier was yawning, Mu Ping took Wu Niang and the children to bed, and there were only three of them left in the yard.

Zhao Hua cut the fruit and everyone ate it. He wiped his hands and took out his jasper flute from the room, and blew it softly.

Tao Linghua leaned in Zhao Tai's arms, closed his eyes and listened, the sound of the flute whimpered, distant and peaceful, like the clear sky and the moonlight like the water, it made people feel as if they were immersed in slightly warm spring water, being gently touched , Thoughts drifted into the distance in silence.

Suddenly, there was a loud "crash" from the next door, which seemed to be the sound of a teacup being smashed, and Mu Qi was heard scolding: "Get out! Who are you! Who told you to come!"

An old voice pleaded: "Master, calm down, this old slave found it, it's the old slave's fault, it's not because you suffer yourself every day." Yu San's voice.

There was another woman's delicate voice begging: "Master, please forgive me, I will leave now..."

The three people here looked at each other in blank dismay, suddenly lost interest in admiring the moon, and had no intention of listening, so they had to pack up and go into the house.

After entering the bedroom, Tao Linghua washed up and lay down, but he was still disturbed and disinterested, so he simply fell asleep.

The two brothers knew that he was a little depressed after hearing what happened next door, so they fondled him in every possible way. Love affairs are the best healing medicine, and they forgot what happened outside during the time of tossing and turning.

It was not until the end of October that the eldest sister Tao's family came to Beijing with their family.

After receiving the letter, Tao Linghua was so happy that he didn't fall asleep for two days.

It's been more than three years and I haven't seen my sister, how can I not be excited?

Needless to say, siblings cried together when they met.Tao Linghua took his younger brother's hand and looked him up and down for a long time. Seeing that he was in good condition, taller, fatter, and with a very good complexion, he felt relieved.

Others came up to meet each other and introduced each other.

The Tao Linghua siblings were busy giving greetings to their nephews and nephews, and they were busy again.

After meeting each other, Tao Linghe began to look at the Zhao family brothers.He secretly praised in his heart, the eldest brother is mighty and extraordinary, and Zhao Er is handsome and elegant, they are both dragons and phoenixes among people.

Of course, she had met Zhao Hua and had a good impression.It's just that after I received my brother's letter last time, I also knew that my brother was with the two brothers of the Zhao family. I didn't meet each other, so I didn't have a chance to say anything. What did you say to your face.

One of these two people is a senior official of the fourth rank, and the other is a scholar. Tao Linghe is a commoner woman, even if she wants to object, she dare not open her mouth casually.Moreover, it was obvious that these two people held their younger brother like a treasure, and Huier was obviously his younger brother's biological child. What's going on?

It's not easy to ask in front of people, until the arrangement is complete, everyone retreats, only two siblings are left in the room, Tao Linghe pulls his younger brother to sit down, and asks in a low voice: "Xiaohua, don't blame me for asking, Are you and those two young masters of the Zhao family..." She didn't have the nerve to say the rest, and she blushed.

Tao Linghua knew that this test would be passed sooner or later, so he blushed and replied in a low voice: "Sister, I can't help it either, they saved my life..."

"Help?" Tao Linghe was shocked, did you encounter any danger in Datong?

Tao Linghua thought for a while, since the danger was over, there was no need to go into details, which frightened her sister.So he said perfunctorily: "Well, it was very dangerous at that time, I fell ill, but the two elder brothers rescued me and gave me treatment, and I'm already cured, am I alright?"

Tao Linghe didn't give up, and persuaded: "The kindness of saving life should be repaid by the spring, and our siblings just repay them like cows and horses. Why... this, promise with your body?"

"This..." Tao Linghua hesitated for a moment but replied firmly: "Sister, it's not just a simple saving grace, they have treated me better than themselves many times, I... I have decided to live with them for the rest of my life. "

"..." Tao Linghe was speechless.Since my younger brother was so determined, I didn't have the courage to talk to a senior court official, so I had no choice but to do so.He asked again: "Hui'er..."

When Tao Linghua saw her sister asking, she lied and said, "I was married earlier, and the child's mother passed away." Tao Linghe couldn't help but lamented that the child was poor, and lost his mother at such a young age.

After the topic was turned over, Tao Linghe asked again: "Brother Mu lives next door, right? We should go and have a look, and thank him for your help. We should thank him anyway. Besides, he has also become a high-ranking official." , move around more, so I can take care of you in the future."

Tao Linghua bowed his head and remained silent.

The eldest sister of the Tao family moved many things out of the cage by herself, including snacks from her hometown, various children's toys, windmills, rattles, etc., and said as she moved, "How old is Brother Mu's son? Let him play with these toys." Bar."

Tao Linghua said in a muffled voice, "Forget it, he is a high-ranking official, where can't he buy these things? Let's not go, shall we?"

"How can I do that?" Tao Linghe raised his head and tucked the strands of hair around his face behind his ears, and said with a smile, "Even if you are an old neighbor, you should have a look. You Never mind, I've made arrangements, you just follow me. Will Big Brother Mu drive us out?"

Because Mu Qi left for court very early in the morning and only came back in the evening, Tao Linghe asked Chu Xin to carry his things and brought Tao Linghua to the door after inquiring.

As soon as it got dark, the lanterns in front of the Mu Mansion's gate lit up, illuminating the grand gate with black lacquer and copper nails, and there were two well-dressed servants guarding the gate.

Tao Linghe pushed Tao Linghua forward to ask.Tao Linghua asked unwillingly: "Excuse me, is Lord Mu at home? We are neighbors from other villages, so come to visit."

These two servants are very familiar with Tao Linghua, and they have long been aware of their grievances. Seeing him pretending not to know each other, he secretly smiled, but replied with a serious face: "The master said, Mr. Tao Come, no need to report, please come in."

Tao Linghua originally thought that if he quarreled with Mu Qi and severed the relationship completely, he would definitely refuse his door-to-door and turn his head and leave. Who knew that he would lead the way inward and choke him there instead. No, it’s not okay to go back.

The elder sister of the Tao family and her brother-in-law Chu Xin hurriedly urged: "Xiao Hua, hurry up."
