Chapter 183 The Liu Family Goes to Jiangnan
"Dad, you don't know that Shen Tang's family is very simple.
Uncle Shen and Aunt Shen only have one daughter, Shen Tang. Both uncle and aunt are very easygoing people.
Liu Xun was talking to a few people when he suddenly slapped his head.
"Mom, you probably don't know, but Aunt Shen has already received an imperial decree."
Mrs. Liu really didn't know about this.
After all, Shen Tang had left with an extra imperial edict, so not many people in the court knew the news.
"Aunt Shen was conferred the title of Third Rank Huishuren. What a coincidence! Aunt Shen and I are actually from the same family."
As soon as Liu Xun said this, Liu Wendong and Madam Liu's expressions changed.
The wife said that Ning'an Hou looked like her, and Ning'an Hou's mother was from the same family as her.
Is there really such a coincidence in the world?
"Xun'er, do you know what Hui Shu's name is?"
Liu Wendong suppressed his excitement and asked carefully.
"Of course I know. Aunt Shen's name is Liu Hui. I heard from Atang that Aunt Shen's title must have been a gift from the Emperor."
Liu Wendong just felt a buzzing in his head.
His sister's name also has the character "Hui" in it.
How could things in the world be so coincidental!
After listening to what his daughter said, Liu Wendong believed it 90% in his heart.
Sure enough, when Mrs. Liu heard this, her heart skipped a beat.
No way, it can’t be such a coincidence.
Liu Wendong has been asking people to look for his sister over the years, but Liu Xun and Liu Heng, brother and sister, only knew that they were looking for someone and did not know the name of their missing aunt.
After all, in Liu Wendong's eyes, the children are still young, and as he said, the children have no means or ability to find someone.
But I really didn't expect that my daughter would encounter it.
Noticing something strange happening to his parents, Liu Xun asked about it, but this matter was of great importance.
No one can say anything before meeting Hui Shuren and Ning'an Hou.
Therefore, the couple changed the subject and passed it over to other topics.
at night.
"Madam, how true do you think what Axun said is? Is the Ning'an Marquis really similar to me and Heng'er?"
Liu Wendong was so excited that he couldn't sleep. This news made him happier than winning a battle.
Madam Liu was also very excited. If this was true, then their family and the Ning'an Marquis' family would be relatives.
"How could this be false? When I met Ning'an Hou, I felt that she looked familiar. Otherwise, I wouldn't have written to you. Moreover, Ah Xun told me after returning from the banquet that she felt that Ning'an Hou looked familiar. Am I using this to frame you?"
"The imperial court has not yet issued its reward, and I am not a high-ranking official. After the reward comes, I will ask for leave, and we will go to Jiangnan in person."
Liu Wendong was hoping that the imperial court's reward would come tomorrow.
Madam Liu also nodded.
We must go to Jiangnan. Even if the final result is not satisfactory, it would be good if we can make friends with the Ning'an Marquis family.
Three days later, the three armies were rewarded according to their merits.
Liu Wendong went to court early in the morning.
From a fifth-rank lieutenant general, he has now become a fifth-rank General Dingyuan.
Liu Wendong asked for leave from his boss, saying that he wanted to take his wife to Jiangnan to relax.
I hurriedly packed my luggage and headed straight to Kyoto Pier overnight.
-
The south of the Yangtze River is already full of spring colors in April.
Liu Wendong and his group arrived in Qingshan Town more than ten days later.
The one who didn't understand the most was Liu Xun. If she had known that her father and mother would come to Jiangnan, she would not have been in a hurry to return to the capital.
Moreover, Liu Wendong and Madam Liu said that they came to visit to express their gratitude to the Ning'an Marquis family for taking care of Liu Xun.
Liu Xun: I am worthy of being my parents’ precious daughter. I am so important in their hearts.
"Dad, Mom, I'll lead the way for you!"
Liu Xun walked in front, she knew where Shen Tang's house was.
"Isn't this Miss Liu? Didn't she go back to the capital? Why are you back again?"
The Wu family's shipping company was at the dock, so they were naturally familiar with the people around Shen Tang.
This Miss Liu was sent to the capital by them personally, so how come she came back just over a month later?
Therefore, Shen Tang received the news before Liu Xun and his group arrived at the Shen family.
Liu Xun stood at the door of Shen's house and knocked skillfully.
Liu Wendong, who was following behind his daughter, was extremely nervous. He had never met Liu before, but he was extremely nervous.
I have never been to Jiangnan, but I feel homesick when I am close to home.
"Mommy!"
"Miss Liu."
When several people were welcomed into the Shen family, Liu Wendong felt his blood boiling when he saw Shen Tang.
The young girl sat at the head of the table. Although she was young, she already had the aura of a person in a higher position.
But what made Liu Wendong excited was the girl's eyes and eyebrows.
Like, it’s so similar!
It looks exactly like my sister when she was a child.
After more than ten years, the blurry face of my sister in my memory suddenly became extremely clear the moment I saw Shen Tang.
But my sister at that time was not as healthy as Shen Tang.
"Meeting the Marquis of Ning'an."
Liu Wendong suppressed his excitement and saluted tremblingly.
Shen Tang was also a little confused about the Liu family coming to Jiangnan.
If it weren't for the Wu family's informing her that they saw Liu Xun at the dock, she really wouldn't have believed it.
It’s just that General Liu looks righteous, but why does she feel weird? Is she really that fierce?
Why does he look like he's about to cry?
"My daughter has been bothering me for a long time. I came here specially to thank you in person."
"General Liu, you're too polite. Xun and I hit it off right away, and now we're even closer friends."
Shen Tang still gives face to his friend's parents.
"General and Madam have been exhausted from the journey and have no place to rest. Why don't you stay at the mansion?"
Since guests are welcome, Shen Tang still invited them.
"Okay, thank you very much, my Lord."
Liu Wendong was just worrying about how to start the conversation when he heard Shen Tang's invitation.
After all, it would be too rude to say that you want to meet someone's mother as soon as you enter the door.
If I stay at the Shen family for a few days, I will definitely have the chance to see my sister.
From the moment Liu Wendong saw Shen Tang, he had already determined that Shen Tang's mother must be his sister, and Shen Tang must be his niece!
However, Liu Xun felt a little surprised when he heard Liu Wendong actually agreed.
Just agreed to it like that?
Don’t you feel embarrassed?
Wasn't she taught since childhood to keep a distance from others?
"General and his wife have come a long way, so why not take a rest first? How about hosting a welcome party at home tonight?"
Shen Tang decided the matter.
It’s just that there’s been a lot of work going on at the cotton mill recently, so Liu went to help Shen Qingqing.
She was originally in the cotton mill, but she came back when she heard someone coming to deliver a message.
Since there are guests at home, you should invite the elders back.
"Go to the cotton mill and invite the master, the mistress, and the aunt back, and tell them that there are distinguished guests visiting the house."
After receiving the order, the men rushed to the cotton mill.
After receiving the news, the elders of the Shen family hurried home after explaining the situation.
