    There were crowds of people on the pier. Everyone saw a large ship docked. There was a pretty shadow of a maid walking back and forth behind the cabin door. The mother-in-law was busy. They knew that the female family members of a wealthy family had entered the capital by water, so they all stopped and watched.

    Mrs. Meng took a purple gauze curtain from Nanny Liu and put it on her daughter's head. The purple gauze reached her shoulders, covering Jia Fu's face. She left the cabin accompanied by Mrs. Meng and Zhen Yaoting.  Through the veil fluttering in the wind, I saw a horse parked on the shore. On the horse was a young and handsome man with a golden hairpin and a brocade robe. Riding on the horse was a young and handsome man with a golden hairpin and a brocade robe. He was walking among the gray travelers around him.  Against the backdrop of her husband, she looks particularly wealthy and dazzling.

    He was constantly looking in this direction when he saw Jiafu and his party appearing at the cabin door. His eyes lit up, and he quickly got off the horse and went forward to meet them.

    ¡­¡­

    Pei Xiuzhi quickly boarded the deck, greeted Mrs. Meng, and said with a smile: "We should arrive in a few days. We have been looking forward to it every day, but today we have arrived. Is everything going well on the road?"

    The last time Mrs. Meng came to Beijing was three years ago. After her husband passed away unfortunately, she never traveled north again, but she did meet Pei Xiuzhi. The year before last, he and his second wife's nephew Pei Xiuluo came to Quanzhou and settled there.  In your own home.

    "Thanks to the second young master, everything is fine." Mrs. Meng was happy and said with a smile.

    Zhen Yaoting called his second cousin, and all the stewards accompanying the Zhen family, led by Zhang Da, also paid tribute to him.  Pei Xiuzhi nodded and turned his attention to Jia Fu.

    The last time he went to Quanzhou, she was only fourteen years old, and she was already doing very well. He never forgot her when she came back. He remembered that when she left the cabin just now, her veil was blown by the wind. Although she only caught a glimpse, she entered the cabin.  The appearance of the fairy is unknown, but it is more and more stunning.

    "Cousin."

    He looked at Jia Fu and called her, his voice was extremely gentle.

    With only a slight blessing, Jiafu passed by him and was escorted ashore by the maids and women, and boarded her own carriage that was waiting there.

    Pei Xiuzhi turned his head and kept looking at her figure until she disappeared from the carriage. Then he came back to his senses and rushed to help Mrs. Meng ashore. He took the lead, driving away the passers-by who blocked the way, and protected the Zhen family's mother and daughter all the way back to Zhen.  Home.

    ¡­¡­

    The Zhen family's residence is located in the west of the city, not far from the Duke's Mansion, but only two streets away. It was originally a private residence of a capital official. Because it was put out and money was tight, the house was sold. The Zhen family bought it and used it.  In preparation for the wedding, a steward came over in advance a few months ago, and everything was tidied up inside and out.

    Mrs. Meng and her entourage entered, took a short rest, changed their clothes, led a pair of children, brought servants and greeting gifts, and took a carriage to visit relatives at the Duke's Mansion.

    The Duke of Lao Wei was the founding hero of the Wei Dynasty. He followed Tai Ancestor in the east and west campaigns, thus laying a hereditary and irreplaceable foundation for his descendants.  The wall of the Duke's Mansion occupies most of the street. There is a wide and bright gate in the southeast corner. The stone lions are seated opposite each other under the steps. The eaves are painted with red lacquer and have decorations representing super rank. It is tall and solemn, with an extraordinary style, and is similar to that of ordinary officials.  The gates are completely different, representing the transcendent status of the Duke's Mansion.

    The door, which is usually not wide open, was closed at the moment. Only a side door on the side was opened for daily access. Several porters were standing there with their hands folded. From a distance, they saw the second master leading people and ran away in a hurry.  He went to greet her and greeted Mrs. Meng who got off the carriage. She shouted: "Grandma is here. Our lady just sent someone to ask. Come in quickly."

    Jiafu had already taken off the curtain and was helped out of the carriage by the girl and mother-in-law. She followed her mother and brother through the side door and went inside, passing through the corridors and halls, and finally arrived in front of a large courtyard in the southeast, with a black door.  Half open, this is the chief room of the Duke's Mansion.

    Mrs. Xin was wearing homely clothes and an oily purple jacket. She heard the noise of girls and women outside the yard. Knowing that someone had arrived, she pursed her temples but did not get up until she heard  As footsteps approached, Mrs. Meng's laughter came in, and she asked, "Is that lady from our family inside?" Then he got up and walked out, followed by six or seven maids and women, and saw Mrs. Meng head-on.  Showing a smile, he said, "No, I'm coming!" He walked up quickly and picked up Mrs. Meng affectionately. He sighed, "Same for you. It must have been hard work to come all the way, so I didn't take care of you first."  Let the children take a breath. So what if you are a few days late? Could it be that I still ate you?" After saying that, he scolded his son: "What did I tell you before? You roared in a hurry and didn't let anyone take a breath first.  Tone.¡±

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? The girls and women nearby all laughed out loud, and said: "Our wife has a heart like a Bodhisattva. I have just been thinking about grandma and you have been working hard on the road. I feel sorry for you. Even the second master scolded me."

    Mrs. Meng smiled hurriedly and said, "I'm not tired. I haven't seen you for a long time."The madam then took her leave. Madam Xin asked to stay for dinner. Madam Meng declined politely. Madam Xin said, "That's fine. You guys have been working hard on the road. Go back and rest early. I won't stay here." She stood up to see the guests off.

    After Jiafu came in, she stood beside her mother. Although she kept her head half-bowed, she felt Pei Xiuzhi's eyes on her from time to time.  When I saw him, I couldn't help but think of the last scene with his husband and wife in my previous life. It was pitiful, sad, ridiculous, and hateful. Even if he looked at him so many times, I felt extremely uncomfortable in my heart. I felt sorry for Mrs. Xin and Mrs. Xin.  The secrets of my aunt's inner house were very clear. She didn't want to stay for a moment longer and wished she could leave the house immediately.  As for Zhen Yaoting, he had just arrived in the capital. He had not been here for several years. It was fresh. He was tired of listening to the women talking about indifferent gossip. He breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that he could leave.  Followed out the door.

    Regardless of Mrs. Meng's repeated refusals, Pei Xiuzhi not only sent him out of the gate, but also sent him back to Zhen's house in person. Mrs. Meng was very moved. After getting off the carriage, she invited him in for tea. Pei Xiuzhi glanced at Jiafu and smiled. Jiafu suddenly said:  "Mom, we just arrived today. The house is very messy. Our luggage has not been put away. Where is the fire in the stove? It would be rude to invite my second cousin in like this, so let's go back next time."

    Mrs. Meng was slightly startled and glanced at her daughter. Seeing her serious look and solemn tone, she was a little confused for a moment.

    Jiafu didn't wait for Mrs. Meng to speak, then turned to Pei Xiuzhi, smiled slightly and said: "My second cousin has helped me a lot today, so I thank you on my mother's behalf. Of course my second cousin won't mind if my tea is cold, but my mother has walked all the way.  I just arrived today, and my second cousin also saw it. Without taking a breath, I left my relatives again. I was really tired. I ask my second cousin to forgive me for the inconvenience today."

    Pei Xiuzhi wanted to follow, but when Jia Fu said this, he stopped and had to say: "My cousin said it is. Then I will leave first, so you can rest."

    Mrs. Meng asked him to go away. When the person disappeared, she was held by her daughter and walked in. She relaxed and said with a smile: "What you just said is right. Mom is a little tired. It's just rare for him to be like this."  He was very kind and sent us back to the door, and left without asking anyone to take a sip of tea. I felt a little sorry. Besides, you are no longer outsiders. When the old lady¡¯s birthday is over"

    "Mom! My second cousin and I haven't gotten engaged yet. Even if we get engaged, it's hard to keep him in our family. He's been with us all the time today. If you keep him, you're afraid there will be gossip."

    Mrs. Meng suddenly woke up and sighed: "You were so thoughtful, but my mother forgot about it for a moment."

    In Mrs. Meng's impression, her daughter had always been delicate and soft-spoken, and she obeyed her advice. Now she was about to get married, and she was entering the Duke's palace. She always felt uneasy at first, but she didn't expect that she was so considerate that she even neglected things.  She thought of it all, and although she was a little surprised, she felt relieved that her daughter had grown up and become sensible.

    Jiafu walked slowly inward beside her mother and said, "Mom, you go and have a rest first and regain your energy. I will send someone to the Song family to deliver a greeting card. If Mrs. Song is free, we can go there after noon.  Let's go to the Song family. She is my godmother, and I want to worship her as soon as possible to show our sincerity."

    Mrs. Meng felt distressed and pleased at the same time, and said: "Originally, I was afraid that you would be tired and wanted to go tomorrow. Since you think so, it's okay. If there is a reply from the other side, let's go early. Sooner or later, we will have to leave.  It¡¯s a trip.¡±

    After Jiafu sent her mother back to her room to rest, she didn't feel tired at all. She watched Tanxiang take the little girls to put their things away, waiting for a reply from the Song family.

    Before noon, the person sent to deliver the greeting card came back with a message saying that Mrs. Song asked the Zhen family to come over.

    Jiafu had long expected such a reply.

    She had dealt with Mrs. Song in her previous life.  This "godmother" has high eyes and an impatient personality. She has made Mrs. Ye very dissatisfied all the way north. After getting off the boat and returning to the Song family, she must have reported her every word and deed.  With Mrs. Song's temper, how could she possibly bear it?  Even if she didn't plan to go today, she would definitely call her mother and daughter over.

    The so-called talisman for seeking a child is just an introduction.

    Whether the thing about fate that she has been thinking about since she woke up can come true, the next thing is the key.

    Today is really a good opportunity, she must seize it.

    Jiafu suddenly felt excited and felt nervous again. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath. When she calmed down, she summoned sandalwood and said, "I want to take a shower and change clothes." (Remember this site's website address: www  .hlnovel.com
