Chapter 132 Entering Xiao Mansion
Ji Wan will not get married two years later, and Zhou's wedding date is approaching. The Xiao family has used their horoscopes to measure the auspicious day, which is on October 28th.
On October 27th, I will carry my makeup. According to what I said before, I will take Ji Wan and the three siblings over.
Early in the morning, Zhou called his three children to his side, "When you arrive at Xiao Mansion, you must be careful in your words and actions. Awan, you are the eldest sister, you must take good care of Arong and Aheng."
Ji Wan nodded, "Don't worry, mom, I can."
The eldest daughter has always been steady, and Zhou was very relieved, and he also told her younger daughter and son, "You two must listen to the elder sister and not run around, so as not to bump into the elders. Also, from today on, the girls and young men of the Xiao family are your brothers and sisters. Do you know that you want to live in harmony with them?"
Ji Rong nodded sensiblely.
Ji Heng also agreed well.
At this time, Cheng and Lin came over, "Sister, the carriage from Xiao's house has arrived, and the uncle came in person."
Zhou was slightly stunned and sent several children out of Qiongyuan and stopped at the second door, "I can't go out, so I'll have to ask my two younger brothers and sisters to help me send Awan and the others out."
Cheng smiled and said, "You are polite, sister."
After living in Zhou Mansion for almost half a year, he left immediately. Ji Wan was still a little reluctant.
Less than two years since she traveled, she has moved several times, and she has lived in Dengxian for the longest time. Today, she has to live until she gets married.
After leaving the gate, Ji Wan couldn't help looking back at the three big red gold characters on the door plaque, Grand Master's Mansion.
I felt a little sad.
"Awan."
Zhou Yan patted her on the shoulder, "It's getting late, get in the car. If you have time in the future, you can still come back."
Xiao Shi had already got off the horse's back. He first bent down to bow to Zhou Yan to show his respect. He was a junior. Zhou Yan received this gift and then said, "Awan and the others will trouble you to take care of him."
Xiao Shi smiled and said gently: "What is your duty."
He bent down and picked up Ji Heng. Ji Heng had never seen him before. He had some life, so he hurriedly looked up at his two sisters. Ji Wan smiled at him, "Aheng got in the car first, and the eldest and second sisters will come later."
Ji Heng finally relaxed.
After Xiao Shi carried him into the carriage, he turned around and saw Ji Rong stepping on the stool, and then stretched out his hand to hold her arm. It was the first time Ji Rong saw this stepfather, and he was a little nervous and whispered: "Thank you."
Xiao Shi smiled and helped Ji Wan get into the car again.
The curtain was lowered, and the carriage turned around and started driving.
"elder sister."
Ji Rong whispered: "Uncle Guo looks like his father, a gentle man. Do you think he will be as good as his father to his mother?"
Ji Wan said seriously: "Arong, remember, we live in Xiao Mansion, and we will be the girl of Xiao Mansion in the future. If my mother remarries, she will also join the Xiao family tree. She is the second wife of Xiao. We can only remember our father in private, and don't mention it in front of the Xiao family, otherwise it will make it difficult for my mother to do."
"Yeah, I know."
Ji Rong has always listened to his sister very much.
Ji Wan looked at her younger brother again.
Ji Heng was five years old and began to understand many things. He knew that his mother was going to remarry, and he knew that he would call the person who had just taken him into the car in the future.
Children are very sensitive, and he can feel Xiao Shi's kindness to him. When his biological father died, he was only one year old and had long forgotten his father's appearance. Now he is more likely to accept Xiao Shi's kindness to him.
So when the elder sister saw it, he said, "Big sister, I understand, too."
Ji Wan touched his head, "Aheng is so good."
She hugged her younger brother and whispered: "Aheng has already enlightened. In the future, she will follow the brothers and sisters of the Xiao Mansion to study together. Aheng cannot be naughty, but he has to listen to his husband, do you know?"
"Um."
It is actually the easiest for children to get along with each other. Children are simpler, not as thoughtful as adults, and they are similar in age, making it easier to play together. There are so many children in the Zhou family, Ji Heng began to recognize the child and gradually became familiar with him. He told him before that he wanted to move away, but he was sad for a long time, and he started saying goodbye to Brother Yun and the others yesterday.
Later, Ji Wan told him that he had gone to Xiao Mansion and had many playmates, so he began to be happy.
Although the Xiao Mansion and Zhou Mansion are both in the inner city, they are still a certain distance apart, especially when the carriages are not allowed to run fast on the street. It was more than half an hour after arriving at Xiao Mansion.
After Ji Wan returned to Beijing, she had never been to any other mansion except the Imperial Palace and Duke Anguo Mansion. After getting off the car, she subconsciously looked up at the plaque of the Xiao Mansion.
It is said that this plaque is given to the emperor like the Taishi Mansion. The only difference is that the Taishi Mansion was given to him by the late emperor, and the plaque of the Xiao Mansion was given to him by the current emperor.
Xiao Shi walked over and said, "Awan, Arong, Aheng, go in."
He naturally called the nicknames of the three siblings, and he was familiar with them as if they were their biological fathers.
Ji Wan was stunned for a moment, holding the hands of her younger brother and sister respectively, and nodding with a smile.
"yes."
Xiao Shi led the way in front, stepped into the gate, walked through the front yard, passed through the drooping flower gate, and entered the second gate... Xiao Mansion is a house with five entry. Although it is not as big as the Zhou Mansion, the scenery is not inferior. It even looks more grand. It is no wonder that the Zhou family is a noble family and advocates simplicity and elegance. The Xiao family is a royal relative, and the mansion is naturally solemn and gorgeous than ordinary families.
"Go to Rong'antang first to meet the old lady, Rui Ge'er and Wen Jie'er are here too."
Xiao Shi talked to the people in the mansion while walking, "Brother Rui was twelve years old... By the way, Arong, I heard that you are twelve years old this year, how many months did you have a child?"
Ji Rong replied well-behavedly, "October twelfth."
"Wouldn't it be that my birthday was only half a month ago?" Xiao Shifu smiled again, "Brother Rui was born in July, three months older than you, and he will be your brother in the future."
"My sister was born in July, too."
Ji Rong subconsciously said that, then shut up immediately. Her mother said that she could not talk too much. She looked at Xiao Shi with a little nervousness and then looked at her sister.
Ji Wan comforted her palm and signaled her not to be nervous.
"Oh?" Xiao Shi had already looked at Ji Wan, "When is Awan's birthday?"
Ji Wan replied: "The seventh day of the seventh month."
"This is a good birthday." Xiao Shi smiled and said, "It happens to be the Chinese Valentine's Day."
Ji Wan saw that he was afraid that he and his younger brothers and sisters would be nervous, so he deliberately asked some relaxed questions, which would not only make them relax and make them understand.
This person is quite attentive and considerate.
"Where is Ah Heng, how many months did he get born?"
Ji Heng Qiansheng replied: "May 19th."
Xiao Shi nodded, remembered the birth dates of the three siblings in his heart, and asked about his daily preferences. He had a gentle tone and kind look, and there was no lack of concern in his words. A kind elder, Ji Wan and Ji Rong's nervousness gradually dissipated.
