Chapter 989: Colorful clothes and entertainment

A matchmaker came to Mr. Tang’s yard. This incident was like a small wave that passed by and no one took it to heart.

Of course, the Li family who are far away in Xindu don’t even know.

Jiayin thought that all his brothers had gone to work and there was nothing important at home, so he packed up and went to the palace.

The palace is busy preparing the dowry for the third princess. She may be exhausted and on the verge of crying.

At this time, if Jiayin doesn't pay attention, the third princess will come out to arrest the person herself.

Sure enough, the third princess was beating up her account book. When she heard the good news that she had finally come back, she picked up her skirt and ran out.

It was late spring and early summer, and the weather was fine. Jiayin wore a willow-green spring shirt and an ivory white pleated skirt. The corners and skirt were embroidered with large sunflowers. It looked so refreshing and smart.

Most of her dark hair was tied back, leaving the smaller part braided with pearl ribbons, which made her complexion whiter and tenderer, and her smile brighter.

The third princess stepped forward, hugged her and spun her around, scolding, "I knew you had no conscience and you didn't miss me when you got home. I can't sleep well here, but you've made me fat!"

Jiayin knew that she had never been a forgiving person, but was actually very easy to coax, so she took the exquisitely woven basket from Shui Ling's hand, which was filled with big red strawberries.

"Who said I don't care about you? Look, there are only two baskets of strawberries growing in my greenhouse. I picked them all for you, and I didn't even get a single pearl."

“That’s pretty much it!” The third princess raised her hand, stuffed a strawberry into her mouth, and immediately started to smile.

Jiayin signaled Caiyun to take the other basket and said, "This basket is for Uncle Huang to eat freshly. Please send it to the Imperial Study Room."

The third princess snorted coldly, "What's the imperial study room? My father is so obsessed with the vixen that he has lost his soul. How can he have time to deal with political affairs? He is joking in the imperial concubine's place every day!"

Jiayin subconsciously gave her a tug, and after seeing that no one else was nearby, she walked all the way into the house.

The two of them sat at the small kang table again. Shui Ling and Shui Yun guarded the door. Jiayin said, "What you just said will be bad if it gets out. The imperial concubine is the emperor's concubine. The emperor should go there more often." It’s normal!”

The third princess curled her lips unhappily and ate four or five strawberries in one bite, biting them as hard as she could to vent her anger.

“My father used to dote on her, but lately it’s strange that he can’t live without her almost every day. But she was so domineering to her father that she gave birth to a sick second prince, and there was no other news.

"Someone in the court recently asked the father to choose a concubine. She may have planned to pester the father, and this matter will be over. Otherwise, no matter who enters the palace, as long as she gives birth to a healthy prince, her son will have no chance!"

After saying that, she frowned when she saw Jiayin, and quickly smiled to please him.

"Okay, okay, I won't say this anymore. After I get married, who will care about the troubles in the palace?"

"That's right," Jiayin raised her hand to pour tea and whispered, "You are a princess, and you will never inherit the throne in the future, so don't get involved in these things. The emperor naturally knows this. You should be filial to the emperor. Well, I won’t suffer any loss.”

The third princess sighed, threw away the strawberry stem in her hand, and replied, "I don't want to do this, but... I went to see my mother yesterday. She was very thin, and she may not have much time left. I want to beg my father to let her go." Come out and get me married...

“But my father will definitely not agree, right?”

As she spoke, tears welled up in her eyes.

“In the future, if I give birth to children, I will be a good mother and won’t make it so difficult for them.”

Jiayin didn’t know how to persuade her anymore, so she could only pat her back and comfort her silently...

Far away in Quanzhou, the fleet of envoys from the eight countries was finally picked up at noon that day. The Li family also looked forward to returning home and wishing their family of three to be safe and sound.

A long queue of horse-drawn carriages were lined up, transporting things brought back from Xindu into the Li family's residence.

Li Zhensheng, who was discussing business abroad, and Jiayi and Liu Yang from the army also rushed back.

As for the pregnant corals and Linlang, Mrs. Li sent someone to pick them up early. It sounds like fate. Jiayi and Liu Yang have been together almost every day since they met. Later they joined the army together, went south together, got married together and lived in separate families. Now they are both fathers together.

Although they are only more than one month pregnant, Hualan and Linlang have become the family's key protection targets.

At this moment, the fleet came back, and the house was so busy, but no one let them interfere, and they were even afraid of running into them, so they just let them sit in the house and eat fruits and snacks.

Just a few children from Xingxing were running around in the yard, chattering and laughing non-stop.

Haulan and Linlang felt itchy after hearing this, so they could only laugh and stand under the eaves, barely joining in the fun.

Mrs. Li has a little gray hair on her head, but her granddaughter-in-laws are all filial and have embroidered a lot of forehead wipes and hats for her. They wear them every day and don't look the same, so they don't show much.

Today she was going to go out on the street with her daughter-in-law, so she specially changed into an azure slant-breasted top embroidered with precious flowers, paired with a dark blue horse-faced skirt, making her look neat and tidy.

Unexpectedly, the grandchildren came back at this time.

Jiaxi has a sweet mouth. When he saw his grandma when he entered the door, he immediately stepped forward and hugged his arms. He joked and praised, "Oh my, whose grandma is this? She is so beautifully dressed. Is the Queen Mother from heaven descending to earth?"

Mrs. Li was coaxed so much that her eyes were filled with laughter. She slapped her grandson and said with a smile, "You are a skinny monkey, you are a father, but you still don't have a proper appearance!"

"What kind of appearance do I need in front of my grandma? I can pretend to be in front of others, but my grandma even knows that I was urinating when I was five years old!" Jiaxi got into her grandma's arms and started joking. There is no sense of proportion.

As a result, Xingxing happened to be following behind, dragging Wenwen along. When he heard this, he shouted, "Uncle Fourth, you were still peeing on the bed when you were five years old!"

Wenwen also followed up with a last-ditch attack, "I can't even pee on the bed!"

The courtyard was silent for a moment, and then everyone burst into laughter.

Jiaxi quickly looked around and saw that her sisters-in-law were all there. The blushing one really wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

It was still Mrs. Li who was protecting her grandson and said, "You are smelly and sweaty. Go and change your clothes quickly. We are still waiting for you to share your things!"

Jiaxi hurriedly delivered the box containing the letters, then quickly ran away with his wife, daughter and children.

Jia'an smiled, saluted, and went down.

Everyone quickly opened the box and took out a thick stack of letters.

Mr. Wen and the Liu family wrote to Mrs. Wen, Li Yong and the village elders wrote to Huiniang, Liu Biaotou wrote to his wife and children, and even Mr. Peng wrote a letter to his daughter Wenjuan.

Of course, the ones who received the most were the members of the Li family.

As soon as the good news came out, I wrote letters to my grandma, my mother-in-law, my uncle, and my husband and wife.

Li Laoer also wrote to my mother...

Li Laosan gave it to my mother and daughter-in-law...

Family fun for grandma and mother-in-law, daughter-in-law and second brother...

In short, after sorting, almost everyone got at least two or three letters.

There are so many things going on at home, no matter how many people write about them, they won’t be able to write any different flowers.

But all the care and concern are real.
