After staying in Fucheng for more than half a month, the three of them finally packed up their things and went home happily.
Mr. Fu was watching the children while they were studying. When he learned that the three people were back, he also brought the children over. They had not seen their mother for nearly half a month. The children missed their mother very much and ran forward one after another.
"Mom, you are finally back. I miss you so much." Xuanxuan hugged Xichun's thigh. She was the youngest at home on weekdays, so she liked to hug Xichun and act coquettishly.
"Have you been obedient these days? Have you tired Grandpa?"
"No, no, the children are very well behaved. They get up to study every day. A Zhao is also a good boy and always takes them to study." Mr. Fu was worried that the children would be punished, so he also stood up to smooth things over.
How could Xichun not understand his children? They didn't dare to look into his eyes. He thought they might have run away to play, but nothing serious could have happened.
"Haha, you are all good children. Let's see what grandma brings you this time. These are all specialties of Fucheng. Come and try them all." Mrs. Fu touched her grandson's head and took the children to play. .
"By the way, Chang Jin's uncle and aunt came here a few days ago. I heard that you guys were not at home. They sat at home for a long time and then left." Mr. Fu saw his wife bringing out snacks for the children, and he quickly told the story. come out.
"Oh, the eldest brother and sister-in-law are here. They rarely come to us, but what's the matter?" Mrs. Fu was a little surprised when she heard this. The eldest brother and sister-in-law live in Weixi County and rarely come here. I would only come to have a banquet when there was something going on at home.
"I saw the sad look on my eldest brother's face and asked about the situation. It turned out that it was about Wenmao. This child, Wenmao, has always had trouble with his marriage in recent years. He took the scholar exam several times but failed. He got engaged a few days ago. We married a family, but that family regretted it temporarily and canceled the marriage. No, the eldest brother and sister-in-law were afraid that he wouldn't be able to accept it, so they thought of coming to us to help arrange an errand for Wen Mao."
"I remember that Wen Mao from my uncle's family is now twenty, right?" My sister-in-law is at home all year round and knows her relatives better. Xichun rarely sees these relatives, so she doesn't know about it.
"Yes, he is already twenty now. Before, he only wanted to take the exam for fame. There was a girl who was already engaged, so your aunt and others were not in a hurry. They never thought that the girl's family saw that he didn't even pass the exam. I was worried about this, and not long after the marriage was canceled, I decided to marry a scholar who had passed the exam.
Later, your aunt and others became anxious and asked people to look for her several times. They never thought that they agreed at first, but when they inquired later, they also think your aunt and the others are helpless, otherwise they wouldn’t have come to our house to talk about this.
Your uncle and aunt are the ones who love face the most. Over the years, they would not speak out without troubling our family. Now that they have spoken, I think we can’t refuse. Xichun, why don’t you discuss it with Changfeng and see if you can Find something for him to do? "
Mrs. Fu was also worried about her nephew. Mrs. Fu and her uncle grew up under the care of their stepmother, so their relationship was closer than that of other half-siblings.
The stepmother married Mrs. Fu to the Fu family for the high betrothal gift of the Fu family. When the uncle found out, the two families had already exchanged wedding invitations, and even he could not change it. Later, the stepmother took the money to marry the girl. He married his biological son, and his uncle also lost contact with the whole family, so he separated from his aunt and lived alone.
She learned that her sister was not doing well in the Fu family, and her uncle never came to ask them for help. It was only after Mr. Fu and Mrs. Fu separated and Mr. Fu made money that she used the money to supplement her parents' family. , so that the life of the eldest brother and sister-in-law is easier, and the eldest brother and sister-in-law also start their own small business and slowly start their own business.
"Mom and dad, don't worry. I will tell Changfeng about cousin Wenmao, but I want to ask my aunt and uncle to bring the family to our house first so that I can get to know a few cousins. This is how we can arrange the brother's situation." Seeing is believing. Xichun was not very impressed by his uncle's relatives and didn't know their temperaments.
"Okay, I'll write a letter and ask them to come and sit. Why did they just sit there for a long time and then leave." Mrs. Fu knew that Xichun was a person with ideas, so she followed her advice.
Soon, the uncle's family learned about this. They heard that they came back from Fucheng and invited the whole family to be guests. Naturally, they would not refuse. Now that their nephew has become a high official in the capital, they want to ask their nephew for help. , to find a job for his youngest son, naturally the whole family came together.
Xichun took the children to study in the yard. When the maid reported that her uncle's family was coming, she took the children to the front yard.
My uncle and aunt have put a lot of thought into doing business over the years, so sitting with Mrs. Fu, they seem to be much older. There are two sons and three daughters in my uncle's family, which can be said to be the largest in the population. thriving.
The three daughters have all been married. This time, the uncle and his wife came with their eldest son Wengui, eldest daughter-in-law He Fang, two grandsons and their youngest son Wenmao.
"I've met my uncle and aunt."
"I've met my uncle and aunt." The children also came forward to greet him.
"Brother and sister-in-law, I heard that you came here for half a day and then went back. This time you have to stay here for a few more days. We haven't seen each other for several years. We are all brothers, so we can't live apart." Mrs. Fu Seeing the eldest brother's family, he also said happily.
"Okay, I'll definitely come here often, I'll definitely come often."
"I don't have anything valuable here. This is a little thought prepared by my aunt for you. Children, please accept it." My aunt distributed the gifts she had prepared in advance to the children. The boys all had inkstones, and the girls all had inkstones. The child is a gold bracelet.
These were not too expensive things. Xichun and his sister-in-law made the decision and asked the children to accept them. They also gave gifts to the two children of the eldest cousin's family.
"These relatives and relatives are meant to be visited frequently. We don't have much to do at home. Let the children interact with each other more in the future. We don't have many relatives in our family. Sister-in-law, please don't be as polite as before."
"We know that too, but we have a lot of things to deal with at home and can't spare much time. Well, after receiving your letter, our family will come over immediately."
During the conversation, Xichun learned that his uncle and aunt had two shops in Weixi County, which mainly sold groceries. The couple guarded one store, and the eldest son and daughter-in-law guarded the other. They were living a prosperous life, but their youngest son's marriage had never been settled, and he had never passed the exam, so the two of them panicked.
The only one I can turn to is my sister's family. The two nephews are both great scholars, and I want to ask them to give me some advice on what the younger son should do in the future.
