”Mom, I've finished reading all these posts.” After Dong Shu finished reading, she had already understood all the contents of the posts, ”Mother, although the contents of the posts are different, but the underlying meaning is not to invite you over, but to ask when you can come visit.”
”Not bad, you did well.” After the Old Madame Xu praised Dong Shu for a while, she then said: ”Although these posts were sent by different people, but their general meaning is only these two.”
After saying that, the Old Madame Xu got the servant to change the tea leaves on her hands into a cup. She then looked at Dong Shu and continued: ”However, there is no need to reply today, because when these servants sent their posts, they had already asked for information from the servants. The servants have replied that we need a few more days to tidy up, so we can reply to these posts two days later.
You have already seen these posts today, so you should prepare two posts, one for your sister and one for Yanzhu. They would send someone to deliver it to their residence tomorrow morning, inviting them to come visit the day after tomorrow.
”Your sister's post asked her to bring Brother Huan'er and the others with her. It's been a long time since I've seen Brother Huan'er.”
Speaking of Xu Nuanwen and her children, Old Madame Xu naturally thought of Xu Nuanwen's youngest son, Ye Xuan.
”Sigh, when your sister was pregnant with Xuan Ge'er, something happened at home. Xuan Ge'er was born only seven months ago, and has had a weak body since childhood. I also left the capital at the time, and have yet to meet him. ” When he thought about how his grandson had been sick for so many years and his daughter had always been watching over him, Old Madame Xu felt especially upset.
”Mother, big sister and little nephew will be fine. ”My nephew was young before, but now that he's old, his body will definitely be healthy and healthy.” Seeing Old Madame Xu's sad expression, Dong Shu subconsciously opened her mouth to console her.
Only after she finished saying that did Dong Shu come back to her senses. She remembered what her husband had told him before.
She looked at Xu Shiqiu with slight hesitation, opened her mouth wide and finally opened her mouth: ”Husband, what I just said, will it become true?”
Xu Shiqiu did not expect his own Young Girl to ask such a question to him. After pausing slightly, he asked without answering: ”Then, my wife, what do you think?”
After hearing what Xu Shiqiu had said, Dong Shu was so nervous that she did not know how to speak up for a while.
Seeing that she did not say anything, neither Hubby nor Granny had the intention to speak. Only then did Dong Shu muster up the courage to speak, ”I think it will become true. Elder sister is so kind, she has taken care of little nephew for so many years, the little nephew's body will definitely grow as long as possible. ”
Seemingly trying to cheer herself up, after saying that, Dong Shu did not forget to nod her head.
Seeing Dong Shu do such a thing, Old Madame Xu and Xu Shiqiu only felt that it was extremely cute.
However, what made them the happiest were the things that Dong Shu had just said.
The two of them already believed that Dong Shu was someone who was blessed. Moreover, as long as she spoke those words honestly, the matter would definitely turn out like what she said.
Seeing that her mother-in-law and her husband were both smiling, Dong Shu smiled embarrassedly.
”Mom, can I bring these posts back? I'm afraid that I might not be able to write it properly, so I want to go back and carefully study it. Dong Shu saw the fatigue on Old Madame Xu's face and quickly spoke up.
Hearing Dong Shu's words, Xu Shiqiu also realised his mother's exhaustion, ”Mother, Yuanxi is still in Shihuan Courtyard, let's go back today. After his wife has finished writing her piece in the afternoon, we'll come over to your place to accompany you to eat tonight.”
”Alright, all of you should go back and rest.” When she thought about how her little granddaughter was still in the Shihuan Courtyard, she opened her mouth and reminded, ”When you come tonight, you must remember to bring Yuanxi here. I miss her.”
Hearing Old Madame Xu's words, Xu Shiqiu and Dong Shu immediately nodded.
Xu Shiqiu held onto Dong Shu, and with the invitation he read just now, they walked towards the Shihuan Courtyard.
The houses in the capital were very similar to the houses in Xiahe Village, but each courtyard was much larger, and there were also a few gardens and servants residences.
Dong Shu had just followed Xu Shiqiu to the entrance of Shihuan Courtyard when she saw the pomegranate tree in the courtyard.
There were already small fruits on the pomegranate tree. There were more than thirty pomegranate trees in the entire yard. Not only were there pomegranate trees in the front yard, but a pomegranate tree had also been planted in the back.
The pomegranate tree in the backyard was the same as the Xiahe Village pomegranate tree. Although there was only one pomegranate tree in the backyard, Dong Shu still liked the pomegranate tree more.
Seeing this pomegranate tree, Dong Shu thought about how excited she was when she saw it yesterday, when she had just arrived here.
Xu Shiqiu saw that Dong Shu was staring at the pomegranate tree, and immediately raised her eyebrows and said, ”What? Didn't my wife say yesterday that she really liked this pomegranate tree? ” After saying that, without waiting for Dong Shu to speak, Xu Shiqiu immediately continued, ”If my wife does not like it, I will dig this tree out.”
”How could I not like it?” When Dong Shu heard Xu Shiqiu's words, she hurriedly opened her mouth, and when she could clearly see the playful expression on Master's face, she immediately flew into a rage out of embarrassment, ”Master knows how to tease me. Even though this tree wasn't personally planted by Hubby, when I see this tree, I would think about the pomegranate tree that Hubby had personally planted in Xiahe Village. ”
After saying that, Dong Shu did not look at Xu Shiqiu anymore. She snorted coldly and turned, walking back into the house.
The capital's Shihuan Courtyard was very high. There were five main rooms in the rear courtyard, as well as an ear room, a side room, and a back seat.
However, once they reached the capital, Shihuan Courtyard would have many servants, and although there would be many houses, as long as Xu Shiqiu and Dong Shu continued to have children, the courtyard would be full.
Just as Dong Shu walked to the entrance of the main house, Ling Xiang who was waiting in the house to clean up came out quickly and looked at Dong Shu: ”Madam, Big Sister Cui Hua just sent a messenger saying that she misses Madam, I wonder when Madam will meet her.”
Hearing Ling Xiang's words, Dong Shu suddenly remembered that she not only wanted to see her sister and Yanzhu, but also Cui Hua.
Thinking of Cui Hua, Dong Shu immediately walked to the study room, and prepared to write a thread for her sister, this way she would be able to see Cui Hua earlier.
