"That’ll work too, let the two brothers discuss it." Lady Zhang said.
Whether Lian Shouli goes or not, he still needs to finalize it with Lian Shouxin.
"Yes, let them discuss it." Lady Zhao agreed.
In the evening, after the Lian Manman family finished their al and sat around drinking tea and chatting on the heated kang bed, Lady Zhang ntioned Lady Zhao’s affair, and everyone was quite happy to hear about it.
"If his third uncle wants to stay ho to watch over the house, then let him. When we co back, it won’t be any different to et then." Lian Shouxin said, appearing that Lian Shouli had already spoken to him and persuaded him. "Sanlang has been brought into a family as a son-in-law, and Yeye bringing in one as a son-in-law is also nice."
Lian Shouxin was supportive of Lian Yeye’s decision to bring in a son-in-law. Moreover, his reasoning was sowhat different from the rest of the family’s.
One nephew going into another family as a son-in-law, and one niece getting a son-in-law into the Lian Family balances things out, making appearances look good.
Lian Manman couldn’t help but laugh.
"Your third household is doing well now too." Lady Li smiled from the side, "Whatever the matter is, as long as one figures it out and aims for the good, nothing is unsolvable. Their future days will be full of joy."
Everyone nodded.
Lian Shouxin also nodded, pleased. Although there were a couple of bothering matters this trip back, they were resolved quite well. As for their family, it was a ti of peace and harmony. Even though not everything was perfect for the entire Lian Family, things were heading in a positive direction.
"I’ve counted, in the past year or two, you’ve had quite a few happenings, all good and joyous things, keeping you busy." Lady Li laughed again.
"Isn’t that right, the children are all reaching that age. From now on, happy events are going to co one after another..." Lian Shouxin and Lady Zhang both laughed as well, the slight discomfort they each had in their hearts was washed away with their smiles, leaving no trace.
This visit to Thirty Mile Camp, although primarily to bring milk to Zhang Caiyun, brought many matters to their doorstep now that they were back. The issues with Lian Jizu and Erlang were relatively significant, and after handling those, they arranged so personal affairs, and a few days passed.
It was ti to return to the Prefecture City.
Before heading back to the Prefecture City, the family went to see Zhang Caiyun once more. Lian Manman had also set up Lady Chiang’s embroidery work; the first batch of cloth, needles, and threads had already been handed over to Lady Chiang. As for the matter of Erlang and Luo Xiaoyan seeking a farmstead girl for Luo Xiaoying’s marriage, arrangents had been made, and results were expected soon.
That evening, the Lian Family prepared another banquet, inviting relatives and friends, and discussed the date and arrangents for heading to the Prefecture City together. After everyone dispersed, the family packed their luggage that night, and early the next morning, they boarded the carriage for the Prefecture City.
The journey was smooth, and they arrived in the Prefecture City by the evening of the next day. After a simple dinner, fatigued from the travel, everyone went back to their rooms to rest.
Lian Manman returned to her room, removed her hair pins, changed into a loose robe and soft shoes, and washed up. Instead of going to bed imdiately, she sat in an armchair, leisurely reading a book.
After a while, the sound of the door curtain moving ca, and the maid Shan Xi entered from outside.
Shan Xi ca in and bowed to Lian Manman.
"You’re back?" Lian Manman put down the book in her hand and asked Shan Xi, "Did you find out, what happened at ho while I was away these days?"
It turned out that on this trip back to Thirty Mile Camp, Lian Manman had brought along her four personal maids. Now that they were back, she had sent Shan Xi to inquire about matters.
"Miss, I’ve asked around, nothing major took place." Shan Xi quickly reported, "... Sixth Master is still in the Capital City and hasn’t returned yet. He just sent a letter back saying he should start his return journey from the Capital City in a day or two."
"Oh." Lian Manman responded lightly.
"In Sixth Master’s letter, he only ntioned that the Empress is well and the date of return, nothing more." Shan Xi added.
Lian Manman and Shen Liu already had a verbal engagent, a fact known to the confidant maids around her. Without Lian Manman having to ask, these maids naturally cared about the news from the Shen Mansion, especially anything concerning Shen Liu.
Lian Manman didn’t speak, she was quietly calculating Shen Liu’s journey in her mind. The distance between the Prefecture City and the Capital City was not close, and it would likely be over ten days before Shen Liu would return to the Prefecture City.
This ti, it was also Shen Liu who deliberately shortened his journey.
"Anything else?" Lian Manman was silent for a mont, then asked again.
"Nothing special at ho." Shan Xi reported the various things she had inquired about to Lian Manman, "... Yesterday, the Ninth and Tenth Misses from the Shen Family sent soone to ask when you would return.... Yan Daopo ca twice to ask when the lady would be back."
Since there was a verbal engagent with the Shen Family, Lian Manman felt it wasn’t appropriate to visit again, but Grandma Shen San, Shen Yi, and Shen Shi often sent things to her and extended invitations. Thus, out of three invitations, Lian Manman could only attend one.
This ti, it seed Shen Yi and Shen Shi guessed she would soon return, so they sent soone to inquire.
Shen Liu still had so ti before returning. Recently, she could visit the Shen Family, Lian Manman thought.
"Remind early tomorrow morning to send a reply to the Ninth and Tenth Misses." Lian Manman told Ji Xiang, who was standing by her side.
