Song Tuanyuan had already sent someone to notify Duke Bai's mansion. When Song Fugui, Song Fuxin and others arrived, they saw the eldest son of the Bai family and Mrs. Bai waiting at the door.
Song Tuanyuan, Song Fuxin and Song Fugui came forward to see the ceremony.
"This is the eldest son of the Bai family. In terms of seniority, you should call him uncle!" Song Tuanyuan called the two children.
Song Fugui and Song Fujin bowed obediently and called uncle.
Bai Jingnian nodded lightly.
Song Tuanyuan looked at Mrs. Bai again.
Mrs. Bai looked at Bai Jingnian, stepped forward and said to Song Fuxin and Song Fugui: "You have to call me aunt!"
Song Fuxin and Song Fugui quickly called out to their aunt.
Mrs. Bai smiled and invited the three people in.
Song Fuxin had gained freedom in Prince Liang's palace, so he naturally didn't find it unusual to enter Duke Bai's palace. Song Fugui also went to Prince Cheng's palace and had seen the world. He walked quietly to the hall with Song Yuan.
Mrs. Bai thought that Song Tuanyuan's two children would make a fuss like country bumpkins, but now that they were still quite impressive, she didn't dare to look down on them any more and let them be served with moderate tea leaves.
After everyone drank a cup of tea, Song Fuxin said with a faint smile: "My mother said that grandma misses her and wants her to stay with her for a few days. After discussing with my eldest brother, I will send my mother here in person. But in this wealthy compound,
There are so many people. My mother is used to living in the countryside. She is afraid that she will not be used to living here, so she asked my uncle and aunt to take care of her."
Bai Jingnian nodded.
Mrs. Bai also nodded.
Song Fuxin turned back to Song Tuanyuan and said, "Mom, if you are not used to living here, please invite grandma to stay at our house for a few days, and we can get close to grandma!"
Song Fuxin's words sounded nice, but his meaning was very clear. If you really can't get used to living there, don't live there anymore and leave quickly. If Mrs. Bai misses someone, she can go out and live with Song Tuanyuan.
After Bai Jingnian heard this, he glanced at Song Fujin.
As soon as Bai Jingnian came back, he heard that this year there was a new champion who was very popular with the emperor. He was also like a fish in water between King Cheng and King Liang. However, in more than half a year, he won several levels in a row and became the youngest inspector. He also entered the
The Third Division hears cases involving riots on both sides of the Yellow River.
Bai Jingnian wanted to make friends with him before, but he didn't expect that he turned out to be his nephew. Before, he kept calm and wanted to act like an uncle. But now seeing that Song Fuxin was really difficult to get along with, he smiled and said, "This is your mother."
Although more than twenty years have passed in your home, many things in it have remained the same. Look at the swing in the yard next to it, the vines on the front corridor, and the plum blossoms in the backyard. They were all your mother's favorites when she was a child.
Yes, how could you not get used to it?"
Song Tuanyuan also smiled and said: "Yes, although I have forgotten everything before, it is still home, and I will remember it after living there for a few days!"
Song Fuxin nodded, and while he was talking to Bai Jingnian, Duke Bai and Mrs. Bai came in person.
Song Fujin and Song Fugui stood up and saluted again.
Mrs. Bai wanted to stay with the two of them for dinner. Song Fuxin said that she still had official business. Song Fugui said that she still had business and didn't eat. He just sent Song Tuanyuan to her room, arranged it and left.
At noon, the Bai family sat together to eat.
Mrs. Bai looked at Song Yuanyuan, perhaps thinking of the poor woman again, and couldn't help but burst into tears.
Duke Bai came forward and said, "Why are you crying? Isn't this a family reunion?"
Mrs. Bai was afraid that Duke Bai would see the flaw, so she quickly wiped her tears and nodded.
The meal was quite harmonious.
After eating, Mrs. Bai said she was tired and asked Song Tuanyuan to accompany her to the room to rest.
After Song Tuanyuan and Mrs. Bai left, Duke Bai said to Mrs. Bai: "Now that your sister is back, I need you to take care of many things at home!"
Mrs. Bai had a bad attitude towards Song Tuanyuan before. Bai Jingnian had already educated Mrs. Bai. Mrs. Bai quickly nodded and said: "Father, my wife understands!"
Duke Bai nodded and motioned for Bai Jingnian to go to the study with him.
In the study, Bai Jingnian whispered to Bai Guogong, "Mother looks very happy!"
Duke Bai nodded: "This comforts me, but please don't tell anyone else about this matter. Only the two of us know about it!"
Bai Jingnian said quickly: "Of course, father, don't worry, I won't even tell my wife!"
Duke Bai nodded: "Today in the court, the emperor rewarded you with a fourth-grade doctor. Although the official position is not high, at least it is not a sinecure. You should work hard, and if you have achievements, Master Ji will be able to speak for you.
"
Bai Jingnian nodded.
At this moment, a housekeeper came and said that the old lady wanted to eat the rice dumplings made by Bai Guogong himself.
When Bai Guogong heard this, he couldn't help but smile on his face, and said to Bai Jingnian: "Your mother hasn't eaten this fermented dumpling for many years. The main reason is that she is not in good health and can't digest it. She also knows that she can't bear it."
Stay. I want to eat today, I seem to be feeling much better!"
Bai Jingnian quickly said: "Then I will do it with daddy!"
Duke Bai nodded.
In the room at this moment, Mrs. Bai was still talking to Song Tuanyuan about the origin of Jiu Niang Yuanzi: "It seems that an old friend taught me to make this Jiu Niang Yuanzi. Later, I became pregnant with her and suffered from severe morning sickness and could not make it.
Jingnian's father learned how to make it. Although he didn't eat it a few times, every time he tasted it, he always felt sweet and warm in his heart."
Rice dumplings with fermented rice... A picture suddenly appeared in Song Tuanyuan's mind. A bowl with jade flowers on a white background contained more than a dozen white round balls. On a snowy day, steaming balls were placed one after another.
Put it in your mouth, then release the hot air and melt it together with the snowflakes in your mouth.
A woman's voice gently calling her Yuan Yuan rang in her ears.
Song Tuanyuan suddenly covered his head, it hurt!
"What's wrong?" Mrs. Bai asked quickly.
Song Tuanyuan smiled helplessly. Recently, these memory fragments from before she was thirteen years old often rushed into her mind from time to time. Maybe one day she would remember her previous time travel experience.
Without that memory, Song Tuanyuan always felt uneasy in her heart. She was afraid that the girl Ji Changan loved was not her!
"You kid, you're a doctor yourself, why didn't you tell me if you felt uncomfortable?" Mrs. Bai was very worried, "Would you like to ask a doctor to take a look?"
Song Tuanyuan smiled and said, "My two masters, my daughter and my son-in-law are all doctors, why do we need to invite outsiders? It's really okay!"
Mrs. Bai was relieved now.
After a while, Duke Bai came in with rice dumplings.
Song Tuanyuan stood up and saluted Bai Guogong.
"Sit down quickly and try these dumplings. Does it still taste the same as the ones you ate when you were a child?" Mrs. Bai asked with a smile.
Song Tuanyuan nodded and took a bite. After that mouthful of dumplings entered his mouth, some memories quickly flashed through his mind.
