Chapter 70: A New Chapter After V
The husband and wife lingered in the room for a while, talking a lot of things, until it was time to get up, and then they fell asleep.
In the early morning of the next day, Dongfang had a white belly, so Xia Chunchao got up, hurriedly packed up his breakfast, and opened Lu Chengyong's bag to inspect it a few times. After thinking about it, he opened his own box, took two more ingots of silver, took a handkerchief, stuffed it in his bag, and tied it again.
Bao'er brought breakfast from the kitchen, Xia Chunchao had finished freshening up, and Lu Chengyong woke up. When he opened his eyes, he saw that Xia Chunchao was busy, sat up and said with a smile: "You got up really early today, and when is this time, you will leave." As he spoke, he got out of bed and walked to the dressing mirror to put on his clothes and crown.
Xia Chunchao put down the work in his hand, walked over, pursed his lips and said nothing, buttoned his clothes for him, and took care of his clothes neatly. Lu Chengyong lowered his eyes and saw that her eyes were flickering, and her two eyelashes were flying up and down like small fans, he sighed slightly, kissed her in the eyes, and said: "I've only been back for two months, and I've survived so many years, are you still afraid of these two months?" Xia Chunchao glanced at him, wiped his eyes, and said in a low voice: "I'm not at peace in my heart." As he spoke, he didn't pay attention to Lu Chengyong, and broke out.
Lu Chengyong is not good at words, seeing his wife's appearance, although he has a full stomach full of words to say, but all of them are blocked in his throat, and he can't spit out a word.
After the husband and wife had breakfast, Lu Chengyong went to bid farewell to the old lady and the old lady.
Xia Chunchao and the Liu family had nothing to say, so they stayed in the house and never came.
Lu Chengyong stepped into the courtyard of the upper room, and when he entered, he saw Honeysuckle sweeping the floor in the courtyard, and opened his mouth to ask, "The old lady is in the house?" Honeysuckle replied, "Mrs. is in the house, and the lord stumbled a few words with his wife last night for some reason, and went to the yamen early this morning." ”
Lu Chengyong was slightly stunned, today is the day he went out on a long trip, and he expected his father to take a day off, but who knew that he would go out again.
At the moment, he didn't say much about this honeysuckle, and stepped into the house.
Walking into the house, there was no one in the hall, only listening to the cries of the wall sobbing and matching, and occasionally a few words of consolation to welcome the summer.
Lu Chengyong moved over, and when he entered the house, he saw Liu sitting on the edge of the kang, wiping his eyes with a handkerchief, and Yingxia standing aside, trying to persuade him.
As soon as he saw his son, the Liu family cried more and more loudly, and Yingxia was helpless, so he had to look at Lu Chengyong and said, "Young master, quickly persuade Mrs." Since the old man went out early this morning, his wife couldn't stop crying, wouldn't it hurt her body if she cried like this? ”
Before Yingxia finished speaking, Liu grabbed Lu Chengyong's arm and cried: "Brother Yong, you have to support your mother." I have lived with your father for half a lifetime, I haven't eaten a few bites of good food, I haven't worn a trace of good cloth, and I have endured the troubles of this half of my life, and it is easy to get to where I am today. It's coming to an end, and your dad wants to ask a little one to come in! I ......" She cried and screamed, not breathing, her eyes rolled over, and she pouted and leaned up.
Lu Chengyong didn't take this seriously, hurriedly grabbed it, put Liu's on the kang, beat his back and stroked his chest, pinched the middle of the people for a long time, and poured a bowl of hot soup into it, and the Liu family slowly woke up.
Liu opened his eyes and saw that he was about to grin and cry again. Lu Chengyong was very impatient, and only asked: "Mother, my father has never taken a concubine for half his life, why do you think about this again when you are over half a hundred years old now?" It must have been a misunderstanding, and there was no such thing. I'm going out today, I'm here to say goodbye to my father and mother, and when I see you making such a fuss, how can I rest assured on the road? ”
When Liu Shi heard his words, his eyes widened angrily, and he reprimanded Lu Chengyong: "I raised you so big, you treat your mother like this?!" Now that outsiders have bullied me, you don't say that you support me, but you arrange me, don't you?! I've pulled you so big for nothing! Lu Chengyong couldn't see his mother sprinkling the most, and when he saw that the Liu family was going to make a big fuss again, he immediately got up, threw this place away from Yingxia, and went to the backyard to say goodbye to his grandmother Lu Jia and his sister.
When Liu saw his son walking away, he was so angry that he smashed a lot of utensils in the room. Yingxia stood aside, waiting to be persuaded but not daring to persuade.
Lu Chengyong left Liu, walked to the backyard, visited his grandmother, and said that he was leaving.
Lu Jiashi sat in the hall, listened to his grandson's words, nodded and smiled: "You serve the country, it is the right thing. It's your grandfather, who sees you so motivated from the sky, and my heart is relieved. Lu Chengyong humbled himself a few words, and said: "When my grandson goes, there are a few things in my heart that I can't let go. First, the old lady and the old lady are all people who have a spring and autumn season, and they always have to take care of their bodies on weekdays, and don't break their bodies for irrelevant things, which is not good. ”
Lu Jiashi heard that there was something outside his words, but he didn't know, and said with a smile: "It's hard for you to be filial, I and your old lady know this, you can go out to do things for the court with peace of mind, and you don't have to worry about family affairs." The world is difficult, and you have to be more careful when you are outside. ”
Lu Chengyong didn't answer this, and said: "The second case is the granddaughter-in-law Xia Chunchao." The grandmother knew that her grandson and her daughter-in-law had always been on good terms. When the grandson was at the border, apart from the old lady and the old lady, she was the one who was most worried about. She's good at home, and I'm out there to rest assured. Otherwise, I just have to remember my home in my sleep, and I am absent-minded, I am afraid that I will make a mistake. The old man doesn't care about anything, and the wife doesn't have to say these things, so I have to say these things to my grandmother. ”
When Lu Jiashi heard this, he knew what he meant, his eyebrows twitched, and he smiled without changing his face: "You can rest assured about this, the girl of the Spring Dynasty is a good child, and my heart hurts tightly." Don't worry, this girl will be handed over to me. If she's good for a while, I'll protect her for a while. Lu Chengyong got the words from his grandmother's mouth, and his heart was slightly relieved, and he got up and said, "With my grandmother's words, I am relieved." The daughter-in-law will entrust the grandmother to take care of her, and when the grandson returns, she will definitely honor her grandmother with her daughter-in-law. ”
Lu Jiashi nodded with a smile, and said again: "A family, do you still talk about two families?" You are also an outsider, and you have been out for a few years, and when you come back, you have these tempers. "The two grandparents and grandchildren, just laughed a few words.
Lu Chengyong resigned from Lu Jia's family, and then transferred to the house of Sister Lu Hong, the sister of the wall. went in and took a look, and saw that although Sister Lu Hong was still sick, she was a little better than before. He was a reckless person, and he only said that Sister Lu Hong was angry about the enemy's retreat, so he comforted: "Sister, you are so alive and raised, don't take that ignorant thing to heart." When my brother comes back, I will definitely help you find a good family that is a hundred times higher than the enemy's family. Sister Lu Hong listened to his words, only smiled, didn't say anything, and sent him out.
Lu Chengyong resigned, and was about to go back to the room, when the people on the door had already come and gone, and the local soldiers of the yamen had already waited at the door. He hurriedly went back to his room, picked up his luggage, and was about to go out.
Xia Chunchao's eyes were red and swollen, and he personally sent him to the gate. Outside the door, there were already a bunch of people waiting, and the messengers sent by the imperial court also rode tall horses and lined up at the front of the procession.
Xia Chunchao pulled Lu Chengyong's sleeve, and his reluctance was overflowing. Lu Chengyong looked at her like this, and his heart was also very sad, holding her hand, gently pulling out the sleeves, and said, "I'm going, you can be at home." Two months later, I was back. Xia Chunchao only felt choked and couldn't say a word. Lu Chengyong became more and more reluctant, but the emperor's order was difficult to disobey, so he had to harden his heart at the moment, let go of his wife's hand, and walked towards the team.
Immediately, a native soldier led the horse over, Lu Chengyong took the reins, turned over on the horse, and complained to Na Qin: "It's too late, don't blame Lord Ji." Na Qincha was about the same age as him, and he was very elegant and dignified, so he only smiled and said: "General Lu and his wife have a good relationship, and it is common in the world to be reluctant to part, how can you be strange in the future?" It's not too early, so tell the team to set off. Lu Chengyong immediately gave the order to set off, and a group of people set off in a mighty way.
When Xia Chunchao saw her husband leaving, her heart suddenly emptied, she lifted her skirt and chased two steps, and suddenly came to her senses and stood motionless on the ground.
Lu Chengyong rode on the horse, as if he had a feeling, turned around and waved to her, and said, "I'm leaving, you can go back!" ”
Xia Chunchao stood in place, looking at the team infatuatedly. It wasn't until the last person turned the corner that Zhu'er came up and hugged her, and said in a low voice, "Grandma, the young master has gone, let's go in." The sun here is poisonous, and I get dizzy when I get too much sunburn. Xia Chunchao's eyes were red, and he muttered, "It's only been a few days since I came back, and I've just left...... and stood for a while, before slowly going back with Zhu'er.
Since Lu Chengyong left, the Lu family has been fine. When Lu Huancheng reached this age, for some reason, he suddenly moved his mind to take a concubine, and kept saying that his knees were thin, and the Liu family mistook his descendants and would definitely add another room to the population. Liu's life has never been angry with his little wife, how can he obey. There is a lot of noise in the upper room every day, and the chickens and dogs are restless. Because of this, this Liu family had no leisure to find trouble in the Xia Chun Dynasty, and when Lu Huan was so angry that he couldn't do it, he even came to sit in his daughter-in-law's room and complained to her. Although Xia Chunchao has no mind to understand the bad debts of the two in-laws, he also does not want to add people to the family to stir up right and wrong. She held the silver firmly, Lu Huancheng had no money in his hand, and he couldn't ask people to enter the door.
Lu Jiashi still eats fasting and recites Buddha every day, ignoring everything. Sister Lu Hong's "illness" has also recovered for the most part, and she often sits on the porch and basks in the sun, but she is lazy and lazy, and she doesn't want to talk when she sees people.
On the side of the shop, although Changchun Lou is like a stone cow entering the sea, there is no news, but Xia Chunchao retained the two major customers of Liuxiang Pavilion and Songyue Building, and negotiated the deal of Hexiangzhuang, which can also make up for the deficit of Changchun Building. Nowadays is not the season to load, the buying and selling is sparse, and there is no need to worry about the summer and spring dynasties.
Xia Chunchao has nothing to do every day, sitting at home, only feeling empty and panicked. Fortunately, Fu Yueming often invites her out to tea and watch plays, and she is idle. The two sisters of the opposite sex got together and talked for a while, and Xia Chunchao learned that Fu Yueming's husband was the Qincha who left Beijing with Lu Chengyong that day.
On this day, Fu Yueming heard that Wing Chun Court was playing again, so she posted a post to invite Xia Chunchao to watch it. Xia Chunchao had nothing to do, so he happily went to the appointment. In between watching the play, she asked Fu Yueming to tell her about pulling the line with the Prime Minister for her. Fu Yueming said, Xiao Xiang's birthday is coming, and the house is preparing for a birthday banquet over there, so he can't take care of this, so he should wait for the birthday banquet to pass. Xia Chunchao heard about it, so it was enough. The two watched the play, and went to Tianxiang to eat Hunan cuisine before returning home.
Xia Chunchao took a carriage back to his house, and when he arrived at the head of the house, he saw a two-passenger sedan chair parked outside the door.
As soon as she saw these two sedan chairs, she became impatient. Without waiting for her to speak, Zhu'er reprimanded on the side: "This mother and daughter are really faceless and skinless, the young master only left on the front foot, so he came with a shy face again." I think they fell lightly when they went back to the banquet before the banquet, they really remember to eat and not remember! ”。
