491 Deserter?

The mother-in-law and the mother-in-law are different, and there is no way to compare.

But what can she do, the concubine said secretly. You can't rely on having a little friendship with Hang Yuqing, and you can point fingers at other people's family affairs. Personal karma is a personal burden, even if Chai's second sister-in-law is heartbroken, it still depends on Chai Fangqing herself. Who in the world doesn't want to meet a mother-in-law who loves her daughter as much as she does?

The concubine knew that she couldn't get involved in other people's family affairs, so she only asked: "When are they scheduled to get married?"

"I heard my mother say that the ninth day of August will take the township exam, and their family hopes to get married in June and July. ”

"Isn't that coming? It seems that I have to urge Hua Xiangrong to hurry up, otherwise they won't be able to make it. When I go back to Mingyang City, the second sister-in-law will also go over and help Fang Qing pick out the look?"

Chai's second sister-in-law smiled like a flower, the corners of her eyes were full of wrinkles, and her cheekbones were piled up.

"What do I know? It's up to my brother and sister to decide—however, I'm thinking about buying some new clothes for Fangqing, otherwise people will laugh at them if they get married—aren't things in Mingyang City much more expensive than in the county seat?"

Chai's second sister-in-law really focused on Chai Fangqing's dowry, and her eyes lit up in an instant, and she didn't pester the concubine to stand up for her.

The concubine secretly breathed a long sigh of relief.

But Wu Juren was kicked out of the gate by Mr. Chai, and everyone in the family still knew about it, Chai Haitang didn't care, but Mrs. Chai was a little sorry. She, like Chai's second sister-in-law, did not realize the meaning of Wu Juren's actions at a deeper level. Old Man Chai didn't explain, he had long been not optimistic about Wu Ju's family, and since he had already decided, he didn't need to bother with words.

Chai Fangqing had something in her heart, she was angry and aggrieved, but she also realized that the atmosphere at home was not good, so she didn't dare to show her face, and sat in the hall with everyone and used less food.

The family quietly finished their meal and went back to the house, and the sunrise in Osmanthus Village was not done, but the sunset was about to rest. It was already dark, and the concubine was served by Chunhua and Erni to rest, and when she was in a daze, she heard someone knock a few times outside the window:

"Ami, have you slept?"

"Ami, wake up!"

"Who?" the concubine got up in a daze, Erni came over to put her coat on, and Chunhua had already jumped to the window and shouted:

"Who?!"

"......" Mrs. Chai stroked her forehead, she knew that this girl had such a loud voice, why did she just talk with her throat pinching like stealing chickens and touching dogs?" "Chunhua, hurry up and tell Ami to get up and go to the front yard, there is something important." ”

Chunhua walked to the table in two steps and lit the candle, "It's the old lady, let the lady go to the front yard and say that there is something important." ”

This big night?

The concubine looked out, the sky was dark, not to mention that there was a time, let her go to the front yard at this time, it must be something important, but I don't know what it is.

The concubine didn't dare to delay, changed her clothes, and simply pulled her hair, and Fan Dai took Chunhua and Erni straight to the front yard without Shishi.

When she stepped into the front yard, Chunhua whispered, "Madam, the window of your second sister-in-law's house has been opened. ”

Mrs. Chai is an earth-shattering voice, although she thinks that she has lowered her voice, she still makes a noise in the end, not to mention Chunhua's voice, Chai's second sister-in-law is used to listening to the corner, and in the past, whenever there was a little movement in her house, Chai's second sister-in-law did not inquire.

"Ignore it. The concubine said, having arrived at the main room.

Candles were lit in the room, and before she could knock on the door, Mrs. Chai had already pushed the door out and pulled her in.

The concubine went in and took a look, startled.

I saw Chai Shuang and two men in their twenties sitting at the table, one holding a hard steamed bun and eating there with a bowl of boiling water, seeing her come in, Chai Shuangchang breathed a sigh of relief, stood up and shouted: "Fourth aunt!"

It was only then that the concubine saw Chai Shuang's face clearly, thin, dark, full of wind and frost, and her mouth full of hard buns.

"Ah Shuang, why are you back, where is your fourth uncle?" asked the concubine at the end, and her voice suddenly changed.

As soon as Chai Shuang heard it, he knew that the fourth aunt wanted to be crooked, "Fourth aunt, don't worry, my fourth uncle is fine, he was worried that something was wrong with you, so I rushed home." ”

"You ......" the concubine was stunned and rushed home? The army was fighting on the other side, and he said that he would rush home if he rushed home? It can't be a deserter, right?

That's why Mrs. Chai secretly called her over at night?

"What about these two?" the concubine looked at the two who stood up with Chai Shuang, looking like they were waiting for a review.

"These two are An Luhou's close guards. Chai Shuang raised his sleeves and wiped his mouth, and said: "The fourth uncle has written you a lot of letters but has not received a reply, and the fourth uncle is in a hurry, afraid that something will happen at home, so he wants to sneak back to see——"

"Ah?!" The old lady Chai covered her mouth in fright, and the old man Chai had already shouted: "Nonsense! That's the battlefield! How can you run away because of your children's personal feelings, isn't that a deserter?"

"Yes. Chai Shuang said helplessly: "An Luhou also persuaded the fourth uncle like this. Now that the Xiliang army is pressing, it is a critical moment, and An Luhou sent these two relatives to return home with me...... Come to the fourth aunt. I thought that the fourth uncle had never received the letter, and it must have been that the fourth aunt did not live in T-shaped lane, so I went home directly and wanted to ask my grandparents if they knew. When I got home, I realized that the fourth aunt was here. ”

The concubine was speechless for a while, Chai Rong had always valued her, she knew it.

But on the battlefield, she had to run home because she didn't hear from her, which she didn't expect.

Unknowingly, I did a lot of trouble, this feeling...... It's a little sour.

Fortunately, he didn't escape back, otherwise the second elder of the Chai family would have strangled her alive and let her die to thank the world.

The concubine had to explain the explanation in the letter to Chai Rong to Chai Shuang in person. “…… I didn't know that communication was so convenient nowadays, and it would be nice if only a letter could arrive in a few months. ”

"That's right," An Luhou's relatives said with a smile: "However, as long as General Xianwu does not fight, he writes letters every day, sometimes several times a day, so that the letter received by Madame may be a few months ago." ”

Another person also said: "However, the one sent to Yong'an County was sent by 800 miles in an expedited manner, mixed with some military newspapers." ”

There is no one in their barracks who doesn't know how precious General Xianwu is to his wife, and he writes letters every day to complain, first with pictures and paintings, and then in order to read the letter conveniently, he actually found a literate and hyphenated person in the army to learn from the three characters by the hundred family names, and now he can understand most of the military newspapers in just a few months.

Today, I saw the appearance of the general's wife, and it really lived up to the general's treasure.

Who has such a lady, who can't be so precious?
