Chapter 275: Returning Home

Chapter 275: Go Home

Mama Bai lifted the curtain, Li Xiaonuan was half a step behind Cheng Ke, and entered the house in a proper manner, the old lady had half-closed eyes, was crooked on the pillow on the couch, slowly turning the rosary in her hand, as if she was concentrating on reciting the Buddhist scriptures, Cheng Ke saw the salute, and saw that the old lady only cared about reciting the scriptures as if she hadn't heard it, and hurriedly turned her head to look at Li Xiaonuan, Li Xiaonuan sighed helplessly, walked to the couch, sat sideways on the couch, and pushed the old lady,

"Ancestor, your grandson has come back from the war, and there are a lot of things to tell you over there, this scripture, let's read it later."

The old lady opened her eyes, sat up a little straighter, and looked Cheng Ke up and down,

"But after a few days of fighting, you turned yourself into a piece of black charcoal?"

"The old ancestor looks much younger and more energetic than when he was in the New Year."

Cheng Ke hurriedly smiled and flattered, the old lady 'hummed', nodded with her finger, and motioned for Cheng Ke to sit on the couch, Cheng Ke sat down sideways, and carefully talked to the old lady about the big things in Nanxiyi, Li Xiaonuan rubbed forward, sat next to the old lady, and listened to the two of them talking, while helping her beat her legs for a while.

The old lady asked carefully about the war, and then turned to the changes of the tribes in the southwest, and asked directly about the ancestral tree under Dacheng Mountain, Cheng Ke replied carefully, described, the old lady looked up at the window with a sad face, Li Xiaonuan signaled to Cheng Ke, Cheng Ke quietly changed the topic, and talked with the old lady for a while, then got up and retired.

As soon as the two arrived at the gate of Qinglian Courtyard, the distant mountains greeted them from afar and reported:

"Hui Ye, young lady, Lord Jing sent Qingping over, ask Ye to come over to the house to talk, let him go over here."

Cheng Ke frowned, Li Xiaonuan gently pushed him,

"Go quickly, there must be something important, and if you can come back in the evening, we will go and eat with my mother."

Cheng Ke agreed, reluctantly stroked Li Xiaonuan's cheek, and walked towards the gate with the distant mountain, Li Xiaonuan stood at the gate of Qinglian Courtyard, looking at Cheng Ke's back, subconsciously raised his hand to stroke his cheek, and his reluctance made her reluctant.

Cheng Ke got on the horse at the gate of the mansion, took his entourage and the servants, and galloped all the way to King Jing's mansion.

Zhou Jingran was crooked in the warm pavilion by the garden lake, looking at the depressed and cold lake through the open window, and was waiting for Cheng Ke with a self-pour.

Cheng Ke followed Qingping into the warm pavilion, took off his cloak and threw it to Qingping, Zhou Jingran straightened up, looked at him with a smile in his eyes, raised his hand and pointed to the rocking chair next to him to signal him, Cheng Ke sat down, picked up the wine glass that had been filled with wine on his side, raised it at Zhou Jingran, and drank it all.

Zhou Jingran leaned back on the rocking chair with comfort and a smile between his eyebrows, turned the empty cup with his fingers, and looked at Cheng Ke carefully,

"I didn't look carefully in the palace in the morning, you really lost a lot of weight."

"Well, you've also been cleared, and you've worked much harder than me after this battle."

Cheng Ke also looked at Zhou Jingran, Zhou Jingran threw the empty cup in his hand on a few places, and sighed again and again,

"Although it's hard, it's worth it, after eating two and a half soldiers and horses on the North Third Road, your fame has also been played, in the future, if there is really a case, we can also fight."

Cheng Ke straightened up and looked at Zhou Jingran with suspicious eyes, Zhou Jingran turned his head to look at him, lowered his eyelids and said:

"My father is old, and everything is peaceful, stable and happy."

Zhou Jingran's brows locked, his face was silent for a long time, he turned his head to look at Cheng Ke, sighed, and said in a low voice:

"This is a never-ending situation, if my father asks me, the North Third Road will not be reconciled, this tough battle must be fought, if not, we want to flee for our lives, the war in the south will also rise, the battle will always be fought, just look at the north, or in the south."

Cheng Ke listened silently, his eyes became more and more solemn, Zhou Jingran let out a long sigh, poured a glass of wine and raised it in front of him, as if he was wishing something from afar, and drank it all.

"Mother said that my father has not slept as well as before since the winter, after all, he is ...... old."

Zhou Jingran paused for the back words, looked at the roof blankly, tears slowly flowed out of the corners of his eyes, Cheng Ke looked at him sympathetically, lowered his eyelids, twisted the cup in his hand, and accompanied him silently, Zhou Jingran came out of his mind for a while, wiped his tears, turned his head to look at Cheng Ke and joked with emotion:

"It would be nice if people didn't grow up."

"Or they all say that the gods are good, they are so big, they don't grow old and don't die."

Cheng Ke took over the conversation with a smile, Zhou Jingran shook his head with a smile,

"That's not interesting, forget it, don't talk about this, for a while, I thought, since this game has become a dead end, let's plan more, now the soldiers and horses, it's almost the same, the North Third Road is going to block the northwest departments, these soldiers and horses can't be less anyway, in terms of grain, grass and silver, we can't do it, we have to take advantage of the two years of hard work to accumulate more."

"Grain and grass are not worried, if it is really a war, it must be our south, and the north three roads confront, the south is not short of grain and grass, as long as you accumulate more money, in fact, there is no worry, if we take advantage of the central government, this silver money is at least stronger than the north three roads, if you can't take advantage of the central government...... In any case, it is necessary to take advantage of the central government. ”

Cheng Ke thought carefully, Zhou Jingran nodded in agreement,

"I think so too, if that's the case, in the next year or two, we have to force the second brother back first, and there can be no more chaos in this center."

Cheng Ke looked at Zhou Jingran with a frown, waiting for him to speak, Zhou Jingran leaned back in the rocking chair and said indifferently:

"The second brother here, he just occupies some virtuous names, and he has a group of literati under him, literati, the trouble is that we have to pay attention to convincing, if we break up the second brother, there will be no hindrance."

Cheng Ke frowned, spread his hands and looked at Zhou Jingran, he was okay with the war, he couldn't help with this, Zhou Jingran laughed for a moment, and then said in a low voice:

"The mountain people have a little trick, let's talk about this in a few days."

Zhou Jingran and Cheng Ke talked for a while, their mood improved a lot, they poured another glass of wine, drank it leisurely, and sighed,

"This year, I didn't even have anyone to talk to, which really suffocated me."

Cheng Ke laughed,

"You're busy like that, and you still have time to stuff?"

Zhou Jingran drank the wine in the glass, turned his head to look at Cheng Ke, and said with a smile:

"This year, you haven't been in the capital, but there have been a lot of interesting things, what is the name of that sister in your family? Pleximeter? Now he has become a close friend with the eldest lady of the Cheng Wangfu. ”

Cheng Ke raised his eyebrows in surprise, Zhou Jingran looked at him and laughed,

"These two little girls get together in one place, it's really interesting, I've seen once, two people, one arrogant only looks at people with the corner of his eyes, and one is kind to see everyone who is low eyebrows and pleasing to the eyes, now the one in your house, you have to go to Chengwang's Mansion two or three times a month, two people go to the Splendid Workshop together, burn incense in the Gospel Temple, play everywhere, and get along very well, these two people have become close friends, it's really interesting."

Cheng Ke's face sank, and he looked at Zhou Jingran,

"It's my fault, I don't manage my family strictly, and when I go back, I will have someone send her to the old house in the south."

Zhou Jingran was stunned for a moment, blinked his eyes, and laughed,

"Where do you want to go? Didn't Xiao Nuan tell you about this? ”

"Xiao Nuan is a woman's family, where do you know these things, I didn't explain them well, and I will deal with this matter when I go back!"

Cheng Ke said in a depressed mood, Zhou Jingran squinted at Cheng Ke, suddenly laughed, laughed for a while, raised his hand and kept pointing at Cheng Ke, and only spoke after a while,

"I'll just say, compared with Xiao Nuan, you are stupid and don't understand, your house, if it weren't for Xiao Nuan pushing behind, I'm afraid she wouldn't even be able to get out of the house, right?"

Cheng Ke frowned, Zhou Jingran sighed and shook his head,

"There is another interesting thing, listen to it again, not long after you left, a steward of the Chengwang Mansion went to the Yaoguo Mansion to bring up the old words, and mentioned that the two families had discussed the good things of Qin and Jin."

"Aren't the eldest and second miss of the Yao family married?"

"Well, the Yao family has a lot of girls, and there is a fourth lady, and now she is also at the age of discussing relatives."

Zhou Jingran narrowed his eyes, Cheng Ke furrowed his brows,

"It's really time for Qianyue to castrate that scumbag!"

"Yao Guogong is also a very smart person, while perfunctory that steward, while letting his wife go to King Cheng's mansion to ask to see Princess Cheng, Princess Cheng let the steward beat the steward with thirty sticks, dismissed the messenger, and wanted to send him to the extreme north as an errand, who knows, it will be ten days later, King Cheng sent a letter from Taiyuan Mansion day and night, not only to reply to the messenger in charge, but also to order that the princess should not interfere in the affairs of the outer courtyard."

Zhou Jingran said with great interest about the battle in Chengwang's Mansion, Cheng Ke's heart flashed with a hint of clarity, and he looked at Zhou Jingran with doubts in his eyes, Zhou Jingran shook the rocking chair comfortably,

"Xiao Nuan must have heard about this, the one in your house, if it wasn't for Xiao Nuan's arrangement, how could you know our Wanruo Miss, if she hadn't pushed her behind, there would be nowhere to hand over this pair of acquaintances, this is a good handover."

"How can I listen to you about this, there is only benefit?"

"It's not just good! Tell me about it, what's the downside? If Xiao Nuan and Chengwangfu become close friends, you have to think about it, that little girl in your house, tell me, what's the harm? ”

Zhou Jingran spread his hands and said, Cheng Ke fell back relaxedly,

"Well, since you said that there is no harm, then there must be no harm, and I don't have to worry about this."

Cheng Ke shook back and forth a few times, suddenly remembered something, turned his head to look at Zhou Jingran and asked:

"How many young ladies are from the Yao family, are they given to the Xu family?"

"No, Princess Cheng also has a strong personality, let it go, Miss Yao's family affairs, she is in charge, this matter has been dragged down like this, fortunately, Miss Yao's family is still young, and it will be okay to delay it for two years."

Zhou Jingran thought as he spoke, and laughed,

"Xiao Nuan must have thought of this place too."

"You also overestimate her, she is a smart person, but she is lazy and lazy to the extreme, it doesn't matter to herself, she has to hang high, she thinks so much about this? I'm afraid that she didn't think about anything, and she hit it right. ”

Cheng Ke glanced at Zhou Jingran and said slowly, Zhou Jingran held the cup, squinted his eyes and smiled, ignoring Cheng Ke, and thought to himself.
