Chapter 140 The brother and sister finally reunited
When the two found Old Madam Wang and the others, more and more pilgrims came, and it was almost noon, so they didn't think much about it and stayed in Guanghua Temple to have a vegetarian meal before leaving.

Before leaving, Pei specifically asked about the results of their divination. Neither of them wanted to worry their elders, so they said a lot of auspicious words. When she heard that her grandson's wish could come true, Old Lady Wang smiled happily.

"If Hui'er can support the family, then you girls who marry out will also have someone to support you in the future."

Hearing this, Pei joked.

"If Hui'er weren't here, Zi Su wouldn't dare to do anything reckless!"

This is true. Old Lady Wang smiled and then said something to Jiang Shiyuan.

"How is your third sister doing? Has the Jinxiu Tower given by His Majesty been delivered?"

"It has been delivered. We went to see it with my third sister. It is a three-story building facing the street. There are more than ten rooms and a not-so-small courtyard inside. If all of them are used to recruit embroiderers, I'm afraid that more than a hundred people can be accommodated. Because it is a reward from His Majesty, it has everything. There is no need to buy anything else. We can hire people and open the business immediately!"

Although Jiang Shishu's current situation was due to the matchmaking of Jiang Shiyuan and Pei Zisu, it was also due to her own strength that she had this opportunity. Therefore, Old Lady Wang and Mrs. Pei also praised her sincerely.

"A girl who has a skill in her hands is always better than many others. Such a reward makes up for her background. Have many families come to visit her recently?"

"My grandmother's guess was correct, but the families that came to visit were not very suitable, so my aunt and I picked some of them and met them briefly, but unfortunately there was no further news."

Pei heard this and interrupted.

"Don't rush to make a conclusion. I have a reliable marriage proposal here. I didn't intend to tell you because I wanted to wait and see. But if Aunt Yang is worried about her daughter, you can listen to her."

"What marriage?"

Jiang Shiyuan naturally trusted his aunt a lot. Since she could talk about the marriage, it must be reliable, so he asked back out of curiosity.

"I have a good friend who married the chief of Hanzhou. They have been in a good relationship for many years. They have two sons. The eldest has already married. His wife is a girl from a military family in Hanzhou. She has a good reputation. Three years after she got married, she gave birth to two smart grandchildren. Now the family is harmonious and there are no problems. The only thing is that the marriage of the youngest son has not been decided yet. So I thought that if the mother and daughter don't think it's a problem to marry far away, they can take a look at the child of the Qin family."

My parents-in-law are open-minded, my brother and sister-in-law are well-behaved, and I have two nephews.

There is no need to be the head of the family to maintain face, nor will there be much pressure due to the issue of heirs. Moreover, there is the relationship with my aunt. Needless to say, this marriage sounds much more reliable than those in Xijing City!

So he said with some excitement in his eyes.

"Aunt, let me go back and talk to Aunt Yang and Third Sister. It's a good way out after all."

"Yes, Qin Er is a good boy. He will go to Beijing to take the imperial examination this year. I think living outside is not as comfortable as at home, so I asked someone to clean up the yard. Then he can temporarily live in the mansion with Xiao Si and Hui Er, and listen to the teacher's lectures. Maybe he will actually have a classmate who can be his brother-in-law!"

"He's going to Beijing? That's even better. Aunt, please let us meet him if there's a chance. It wouldn't be a blind marriage."

Hearing Jiang Shiyuan's words, Pei smiled and replied.

"This is not difficult. When the people come, my aunt will arrange it."

"to make."

They chatted and laughed, and there were no setbacks on the way back. Pei Zisu first sent Mrs. Wang and her aunt back to the Wenyuan Marquis's Mansion, and then sent Jiang Shiyuan. An old servant was standing at the door of the Jiang family. When he saw Pei Zisu, he happily came to greet him.

"This old slave greets General Pei."

Then he shouted to Jiang Shiyuan in the carriage.

"My dear, my dear brother is back. He is in the front hall now. The whole family is reunited."

The old servant's words made Jiang Shiyuan so excited that she cried out loud. She then lifted the curtain and got off the carriage with excitement in her eyes. If she had known that her brother would be home today, she would have probably postponed her trip to Guanghua Temple.

He took two quick steps and suddenly remembered that Pei Zisu was behind him.

So he turned around and said something with a little embarrassment.

"I was so happy that I forgot myself. Thank you, cousin Pei, for sending me back. Ah Nian, goodbye."

"No hurry. I have never met your brother either. In a month he will be my uncle, so it is only natural for me to visit him in advance. So I will go in with you."

Pei Zisu really didn't consider himself an outsider and said this the first thing he said.

Jiang Shiyuan thought about it and there seemed to be no reason to refuse, so he nodded. Then the two of them entered the Jiang family together and walked quickly towards the front hall.

Jiang Shiyuan hadn't seen his brother for many years. In his memory, his brother had always been studying in academy, even when his mother was still alive. He could only come back once a year and stay for half a month before leaving.

And I have never seen it since I came to Xijing City.

But the correspondence between the brother and sister has never stopped, so their family ties have always been well maintained.

Pei Zisu also had brothers and sisters, and the one he was going to meet later was his eldest brother-in-law, so he lowered his head and took a quick look at her outfit today, thinking that there was nothing wrong with it, and followed her into the front hall with confidence.

Inside, Old Madam Jiang was calling out "darling", she was so excited.

In fact, in this family, she could be hostile to everyone, even to her own son, but she loved her eldest grandson with all her heart, so her crying was sincere and no one doubted it.

"elder brother!"

Hearing Jiang Shiyuan's call, everyone in the front hall looked over, including Old Madam Jiang who was crying sadly. Seeing her now also felt a little more excited as a relative.

As he spoke, Jiang Shiyuan rushed over. Jiang Shihui hadn't seen his sister for many years, so when he saw her rushing towards him, he even had a trance feeling that his mother was still alive.

He hugged her in his arms and said with a guilty and distressed look.

"It's all my fault. I should have come back to see you earlier!"

Jiang Shiyuan's feelings for everyone in the Jiang family were not as deep as her feelings for her brother. The two siblings could be said to share the same suffering: they both lost their mother and were both far away from home.

Compared to her brother, she is much luckier. At least although she left home, she is still surrounded by her relatives. But her brother is different. He goes to study alone, so she loves her brother more than anything else!
