Mrs. Lin came over and saw her daughter wearing a Jing Yi dress. She silently nodded in her heart. She turned to Youuran and said, "Since you've already packed everything up, let's go. It shouldn't be too late." With that, he looked at the dressing box Youuran had placed on the table. "There are a lot of kids today. Put them away, don't let it get broken." "I'll go get something. Once you're done packing, wait for me at the door."

Lin Liu-Li also forgot to ask Eldest Aunt who was at home, so she found a few handkerchief and a few bags to put on, and then found the two boxes of Eight Treasures, which were stuffed with flypaper, and a few packets of Snowflake Dumplings that were given to her before they left the house yesterday.

After bringing all these to the living room, Mrs. Lin happened to bring out a few bags of snacks from the inner room. When she saw her daughter bring these things over, she asked, "What is this?"

Youuran said with a smile, "I came back late yesterday and forgot. This is a snack brought back from the Shen Mansion, there's quite a bit of it inside. I was thinking of giving a box to my uncle's family, and of giving a box to my uncle and them. After saying that, he opened the box and showed the dessert to Mrs. Lin. He saw that the eight small boxes contained different snacks, all of which were extremely exquisite.

Mrs. Lin took another look at the box with the golden seersucker crabapple pattern and said, "I don't care about this dessert. It's too expensive to give away this box." Then he went into the house, found a bamboo box made of eight treasures, and put all the snacks in it. Then, Mrs. Lin turned to Youuran and said, "It's not that I'm stingy, but it looks like the box is worth at least 10 taels of silver. When we walk among our loved ones, we should treat them kindly and truthfully. If the gifts that we've suddenly received are too great, it would be inappropriate for others to think that we've separated from them. "

Then he took a pair of scissors and cut off some fresh grapes from the grape rack by the door and put them in a bamboo basket. After locking the door, he led Youuran out.

Seeing Mrs. Lin's actions, Youuran thought of something. As expected, after staying in the Marquis Mansion for so long, he unconsciously brought out that extravagant amount of energy. It was best to pay more attention in the future.

Lin Family's house was located in the southernmost area of the village. Adding to the fact that the siblings had already returned yesterday, the sky had already darkened. Otherwise, that carload of stuff would have attracted someone's attention. After exiting the door, they first walked a dozen or so meters to the east, then walked another twenty meters to the north before arriving at Uncle Lin Family's house.

Youuran saw that the courtyard of her eldest uncle's house was much larger than hers, and there was even an inverted room and a wall by the door.

As soon as they entered the courtyard, Lindu called out, "Is Eldest Sis at home?" As soon as she said that, a woman in her forties and a young woman in her twenties came out from the main room. She seemed to be her daughter-in-law.

As soon as the woman saw them, she quickly led her daughter-in-law over. Holding Youuran's hand, she said to Mrs. Lin, "This must be Youuran, right? It was not in vain did your mother look forward to all these years. "

Mrs. Lin said from the side, "Youuran, this is you, Eldest Aunt. Hurry up and pay your respects." Thus, Youuran hurriedly saluted. Mrs. Lin pointed at the young woman beside her and said, "This is your sister-in-law."

After Youuran bowed, Eldest Aunt brought them to the main hall. Her eldest uncle was sitting there waiting for her to come meet him, along with his two little nephews. Of the two cousins, one was studying in the academy and the other was working in a shop outside and couldn't come back. Another cousin went to visit her aunt's family, saying that she would be coming with her aunt's family today.

Seeing that Youuran had returned safe and sound, the entire family was very cordial and did not underestimate her just because she had been a servant girl. At least, on the surface.

Eldest Aunt and her sister-in-law gave her a purse before hurriedly serving snacks and fruits to their niece whom they hadn't seen for years. Seeing the snacks that Lin Liu-Li brought back, he couldn't help praising them for their fine details. Hearing that the new clothes Mrs. Lin was wearing were made by Youuran, the crowd couldn't help but praise her. The whole family chatted and laughed, and Eldest Aunt naturally would ask her about some matters regarding Marquis Mansion. Youuran thought for a moment and told her about some of the things that she could say.

After staying for about half an hour, Mrs. Lin got up and said goodbye to Youuran, "I'll bring her over for another round of fun next time. Her aunt and uncle's family will be coming over soon. I'll take her back to prepare first. At noon, brother, sister-in-law, and my daughter-in-law will go for lunch together. "

Eldest Aunt nodded. "Alright, you guys go back first. We'll go after a while." Knowing that your nephew's daughter is back today, your big brother got up early in the morning and killed two ducks. I'll make some old duck soup later, and then fry some meat pancakes and bring it over. "

Since the two families were close relatives, Mrs. Lin didn't refuse. She smiled and said, "The duck soup that sister-in-law makes is the best. I'm so blessed to have it at noon."

Then he brought Youuran home, leaving behind the box of snacks. But the basket with the grapes was returned with some plums and peaches.

Seeing her uncle's return gift, Youuran seemed to have thought of something.

On the way back, they met some villagers. Mrs. Lin introduced them to Youuran one by one. Although most of them had curiosity written all over their faces, they still smiled and greeted Youuran.

When there are no more outsiders, Mrs. Lin continued, "I think after a while, your uncle's family will arrive. After not seeing each other for so many years, you might have forgotten. Let me tell you something, your eldest uncle and second uncle separated a few years ago when your grandfather and grandmother died. Your uncle's eldest cousin is twenty-three years old this year, and he became an Elementary Scholar the year before last. He is now working for a wealthy family in the neighboring county. He's already married and has children. Today, your cousin will probably come over with their three-year-old baby dragon and phoenix. Your second cousin is seventeen years old and is currently studying in the academy. He is a scholar who was admitted to the academy at the same time as your younger brother this year. He should be studying at the academy now, so he probably wouldn't be able to come today. Your cousin is twenty years old and she's married to the second son of your Uncle Dexing from our village. Your second uncle's family has a son and a daughter who are both younger than you. Your daughter is one year younger than you, and your son is only ten years old this year. You all played together when you were young, I wonder if you have any impression of me? "

Seeing her daughter nod, Mrs. Lin also relaxed a little and went on to talk about Lin Family's aunt's situation. Because she was the granddaughter of a High Scholar when she was still unmarried, not to mention her literacy, she was also an outstanding beauty. She married the Liu Family's River Long Family's son. Having given birth to three fat kids in a row, he was unable to get anything out of his desire to get a girl. As a result, he doted on his elder brother's niece and frequently accepted her to play.

When they got home, Mrs. Lin cut up half of the pork pork she bought that morning and stewed it with an earthenware pot. After instructing Youuran to watch the fire, she went to the backyard to pick vegetables.

The fire was filled with a large piece of firewood that was resistant to heat. As long as it didn't go out, it would be fine. Youuran washed the fruits Eldest Aunt gave her, found two plates, and started carrying them. Seeing that the plum was crystal clear, she picked up one and began to eat it. He didn't expect it to be so delicious. It had a special sweetness to it. Although she had eaten a lot in Marquis Mansion, she had very little chance of eating this kind of fresh fruit.

After tidying up the living room and looking back at the fire, Youuran felt bored and returned to her room to find a half-embroidered handkerchief. She sat on the chair by the door and began embroidering.

Because it was just a handkerchief, Youuran didn't embroider too many designs on it. There were only a few lotus leaves and two lotus flowers embroidered in the corner.

Youuran looked around the yard while she was embroidering flowers. When he arrived yesterday, it was already dark. He couldn't clearly see a lot of things. Now he could take a good look at it.

The gate of this house was opened at the southeast corner of the courtyard. After entering the gate, there was a shadow wall, and then a drooping flower gate before entering the main courtyard. There was a clump of green bamboo planted in front of the Flowerflower Sect. It was very elegant and verdant. There were two pomegranate trees and a grape tree planted in the courtyard. There seemed to be a date tree in the backyard as well. In addition, there were also some peonies and peonies. The entire yard and house were built with fine green brick and black tiles. Although it was quite old, the entire yard seemed somewhat elegant.

Before he could finish embroidering the lotus, he heard a burst of shouting coming from outside the door. Following which, a young man came running in. "Auntie, I'm here."
