Chapter 174

With Qiu Chen's words, Hu Yanxun's face turned pale all the way, and the cold sweat on his forehead and sideburns slowly seeped out, and a fine layer gradually spread to sweat on his cheeks......

Qiu Chen saw the change in his expression in his eyes, and he was disdainful in his heart, but he lowered his eyes, revealing a sad look, and said: "In the future, I don't ask you for anything, if there is a big event in the family, you can protect it secretly, don't let our mother and son be bullied...... That's it. ”

Hu Yanxun turned his head and looked at Qiu Chen fiercely, his pale face swelled red all the way. He raised his hand to wipe the beads of sweat from his cheeks, glared at Qiu Chen and said, "Are you so sure I can't deal with it?" ”

Qiu Chen raised his eyes to look at him and did not speak.

Hu Yanxun was a little stunned by her inquiring gaze, dodged in a panic, and muttered, "...... Even if you can't just go home and recognize you, you can marry me again with your children......"

Qiu Chen's eyebrows were raised high, and it took a long time to slowly fall, trying to curb the ridicule on his face: "So, I'm a woman with a child, can Lord Huyan marry me again?" ”

Hu Yanxun looked unnatural and hidden, but heard Qiu Chen say again: "Even if an adult can marry me and enter the door, what are the children?" was originally a fair son and daughter, but became an oil bottle? How will the children deal with themselves in the future? ”

"We know ......" Hu Yanxun was a little annoyed by the question, and he raised his eyes and wanted to dismiss it.

But when he raised his eyes, he saw the calm but deep gaze of the woman opposite looking at him, under such a quiet gaze, Hu Yanxun opened his mouth, but the words that were halfway through his speech were stuck in his throat, and he couldn't say any more.

He suddenly felt very powerless and very annoyed, how did the woman who used to obey him, the woman who used to be gentle and submissive, who was always the master of everything and who was the heaven of him, become like this? So disobedient, so ...... Shrewd, where is there still a woman's appearance?

This powerlessness and frustration caused the anger that had accumulated in his chest for many days and was suppressed in his heart by him, like a volcano that had broken through the critical point, suddenly erupted.

He stood up suddenly, took a step forward, stood in front of Qiu Chen condescendingly, stared at Qiu Chen, and said angrily, "Don't you believe me? Look at you, what has become of you now? Showing up every day and mingling with those wild men, you are embarrassed to keep saying that it is for my future and for the safety of my family...... It's all fake, it's just an excuse, all you want is to get rid of me, so that you can be more comfortable fooling around with those wild men...... You watery poplar, a woman who doesn't abide by women's morals......"

Syllable! Syllable!

Two loud slaps succeeded in making the furious Hu Yanxun stop his completely uncontrollable roar.

Qiu Chen's right hand was behind his back - he shook it secretly, he had just used too much force in anger, and his wrist flashed a little - but his body flexibly took a few steps back, until he stood still at the door of the room, straightened his waist, tilted his head slightly, and stared at Hu Yanxun coldly: "Lord Huyan, since you have come to the door as a guest, you must look like a guest!" ”

As he spoke, before the stunned Hu Yanxun could react, Qiu Chen had already opened the curtain and shouted out, "Someone!" ”

Qingxing Yufeng was waiting in the big kitchen next to her, she had just heard the roar of Hu Yanxun in the wing room, although she didn't hear it too clearly, she also knew that it was not a good word, and she had already run to the door of the wing room to wait, and when she heard Qiu Chen's call, she immediately agreed.

Junzi also ran over from the gate, staring nervously and vigilantly at Han Yong and the others waiting outside the west wing.

Hu Yanxun didn't seem to be aware of the changes in the situation outside the house, and only stared straight at Qiu Chen, staring at the woman who had always been gentle and docile in his memory, the woman who had always been obedient to him and had never refuted him, and had never even had any objections, his eyes were intertwined with anger and disbelief, and his eyes were a little bloodshot and red, like an angry and irritable beast, he was stunned and slowly moved forward, and said viciously: "You dare to beat me?" ”

Qiu Chen still tilted his head slightly, his back was tense and straight, his expression was calm, and he said lightly but coldly: "Yes, I just beat you for Begonia!" For a man like you, Haitang worked hard with her three children, and she couldn't eat enough and wear no warmth. When I heard the news of your death, I couldn't afford to get sick...... Hmph, you only know that it is not easy for you, you only know that you have fought hard for your life, and your wife, children and younger brothers have enough to eat, you haven't even thought about it! Whether it will starve to death, you haven't thought about it! Whether you will be bullied and framed, you haven't even thought about it! Yes, at that time, you had all kinds of last resorts, all kinds of involuntary bodies, but what about after you had a future? What about after you took up the post of Anyang Mansion? Hmph, you still have a face to scold, what qualifications do you have? ”

Speaking of this, Qiu Chen suddenly felt a burst of regret, she didn't want to say a word to this man at all.

She took a step back, stretched out her hand to lift the door curtain, and said to Huyanxun in a cold voice: "Lord Huyan, since you and I are not happy to talk about each other, then please go back!" ”

After speaking, Qiu Chen took the lead in walking out of the west wing, and Hu Yanxun followed angrily, at this moment, he had an impulse, he wanted to step forward and strangle the woman, the woman who was trying to get rid of his control!

A person who follows you gently and gently, when she is gentle and supple, maybe you will not care about her existence, even if you are separated, you will not even think of her...... But one day, this supple and gentle person suddenly changed completely, she was no longer gentle, no longer submissive, no longer obedient, no longer without a sense of existence...... She's independent, she's vibrant, she's energetic...... She is no longer standing behind you in obscurity, she wants to break free from your influence, and even wants to part ways with you completely, and, because of your previous neglect, when you find that she is no longer behind you, you have already found that she has gone away, and she is walking very well and steadily...... You may suddenly find that this person you have ignored is far more beautiful, moving, and eye-catching than you remember...... It's even nostalgic......

Hu Yanxun himself didn't know, things were too sudden and unexpected......

He really didn't expect that not only did he fail to achieve the purpose of this trip, but found that he was completely powerless and completely unable to control it...... Although, he himself didn't know what Weishenme wanted to redeem, and he didn't think about how to redeem it...... As a result, this disappointment, frustration, and nowhere to vent turned into anger, making him so manic and furious that he almost wanted to destroy everything around him!

This rage, this irritability, lost his reason, his reaction, his normal thinking, he didn't hear what the woman in front of him said, let alone the obvious abnormality in Qiu Chen's words!

He strode out and followed Qiu Chen out of the West Wing. Then, the moment he stepped out of the room, his manic rage froze for a moment, and then fell apart in an instant, and there was nothing left of ......

"Huyan 100 households...... Haha, it's time to call Lord Huyan, I didn't expect to see Lord Huyan here! However, Lord Huyan is in his new position, and he can still take the time to come over and bow to the royal pen himself, it seems that Lord Huyan has completely straightened out......" Qin Li Shi arched his hands with a smile, but his face did not match the content of his words, staring at Hu Yanxun's gaze, and he could almost see the ice ballast.

As soon as Qiu Chen went out and saw Qin Li slowly walking from the main room, a heart that he was carrying instantly fell and returned to his stomach peacefully. Qin Li's appearance is equivalent to Qin Zheng's statement, with his maintenance, there is no need to be afraid of Hu Yanxun going crazy.

After slapping Yanxun on the spur of the moment, she was really afraid that this person would go crazy, not to mention doing anything, just shouting for a while regardless of his identity, which was enough for her to have a headache.

"Qin ...... General Qin! The furious and manic expression on Hu Yanxun's face froze, twisted into a smiling face, and made one of his faces distort completely, showing a little bit of no momentum, and subconsciously screamed, Hu Yanxun finally regained his senses, hurriedly lowered his head, restrained the strange expression on his face, and bowed to Qin Li, "I don't know that General Qin is here, lowly duty, lowly and rude......"

Qin Li's eyes flashed, he took a few steps forward, stretched out his hand and patted Huyanxun's shoulder, haha said with a smile: "Lord Huyan's words, Qin can't afford it." Lord Huyan is now a member of the fourth rank stationed on one side, how can he be humbled in front of someone...... It's not that you don't know that Hou Ye has strict rules, you want Qin to be punished......"

Qin Li said while dazing, the situation seemed to be extremely close to Hu Yanxun, but the faint sharpness in his words made Hu Yanxun, who had never been able to stand up straight, who bowed and bowed, to be drenched in cold sweat.

The reason why he can get to this point and get the appreciation of Qin Zheng, the Marquis of Jingbei, is not uncritical. Qin Li's eight people, who know a little about the situation, all know that these eight people are the most confidant guards of the Marquis of Jingbei. After seeing Qin Li appear, Hu Yanxun's sanity and thinking, which had been suspended for a long time, began to work quickly again, seeing Qin Li, although he couldn't be sure that Jingbei Hou was here, but even if Jingbei Hou was not there, Qin Li was something he couldn't afford to offend. This kind of confidant can say a word in front of the Hou Ye, so that he can't eat and walk around.

Stepping on his shoulders slightly, in order to remove the force of Qin Li's heavy slap on the shoulder, Hu Yanxun didn't care about the severe pain in his shoulder, and only quickly calculated it in his heart.

"Hehe, General Qin said that he laughed......" laughing, Hu Yanxun bowed down and answered, while inquiring from the side, "I heard that Lord Hou is still injured, and he is worried day and night...... Seeing that General Qin is here, I think that Hou Ye's injury must be very good now!? ”

Qin Li haha smiled, finally straightened up and patted, took a step back, and said with a faint smile: "Lord Chenghu Yan is concerned!" ”

did not say what Qin Zheng's injuries were, and did not reveal Qin Zheng's whereabouts. Hu Yanxun was a little disappointed, but he didn't dare to show it, so he could only smile at Qin Li, and was about to ask a few more words, but he heard Qin Li open his mouth very unceremoniously.

"Lord Huyan is not as good as in the past, he is not only stationed on one side, but also in his new position, he must be busy with affairs, Qin can see the adult, it is enough to see that everything is good for the adult, but he doesn't dare to delay the adult's business anymore...... It seems that the adult is about to leave, Qin has a thick face, so he will send Lord Huyan for Lin Niangzi! Lord Huyan, please! ”

Hu Yanxun was so blocked by him that he was stuck in his throat, and he almost choked up, but he didn't dare to say anything, so he had to nod, and followed Qin Li to the door with the same smile.

When he came, Hu Yanxun's car drove directly into the courtyard from the corner gate. After Hu Yanxun got out of the car, the carriage had been driven back to the door to wait.

Hu Yanxun was let by Qin Li at this time, and it was not easy to let the car enter the door, so he had to follow Qin Li to the gate. Fortunately, Han Liu ran out with a very good look, took the car and waited at the door, Hu Yanxun greeted Qin Li at the gate, knowing that today's trip, whether it was with the Yang family or anything else, could not do anything more, although he was unwilling in his heart and was faintly angry, he didn't dare to do anything, arched his hand, smiled, and politely got into the car.

The guards hurriedly mounted their horses and followed behind the car, quickly rounding the pond and disappearing into the road leading to the outside of the village.

Qin Li stood at the gate, watching the group disappear, then he snorted coldly, clapped his hands, as if he wanted to pat off the dirt on his hands, then Shi Shiran picked the corner of his robe, turned around and entered the gate.

Qiu Chen silently watched Qin Li let Hu Yanxun walk towards the gate, and silently watched as Han Liu hurried up with a group of guards, rushing out of the door to prepare the car and horses......

The courtyard that was still tense just now fell empty in an instant, Qingxing and Yufeng's faces were still pale, and they stood behind her with a frightened expression, while Junzi stood not far away in a daze, also staring at the gate that had been empty, as if she didn't know whether to follow and see her off, or what......

That's the end of it, right?

From then on, she no longer had to worry about whether the man would come back, whether she would fulfill her duties as a wife, and whether she would ask her for custody of the child......

It was supposed to be relaxed and brisk, but she only felt tired and weak, and there was a sense of detachment and vacuum that was too nervous and suddenly relaxed!

Before, she was bent on how to get rid of this shackle, this faint shackle...... However, it really came true, but she was suddenly a little dazed. Life suddenly has no purpose, what do you want to do in the future? Want to weishenme effort?

She turned her gaze to the west window of the main house, and then, with a gentle sigh of relief, straightened her waist, and slowly walked to the backyard.

Back in his room, Qiu Chen seemed to be gradually relieving himself.

Yufeng Qingxing knowingly sent a pot of hot tea, Qiu Chen drank a cup, and then he felt a little hot all over his body, and the dazed moment just now gradually dissipated.

Raising his head and rubbing his eyebrows, Qiu Chen was a little distressed. This time, she separated herself from Hu Yanxun, before she still thought that she could get together and disperse, anyway, that person has no feelings for the begonia child, relatively speaking, it is very logical to abandon this bad wife, according to Hu Yanxun's current status and grade, and marry an official eunuch lady, which is harmless to Hu Yanxun. It's just that she missed the bottom limit of men's inferiority, men can't hate to hug left and right, even if he abandons him and dies, she also thinks that women can only miss him......

Taking the initiative to mention the elimination like her just touched on the inferior nature of men, giving him an illusion of being abandoned, and he couldn't stand it......

Alas, if it becomes like this, in the future, don't say what he cares about, it's good not to make a stumbling block in the future.

Rubbing his head and worrying for a while, there was a burst of noisy laughter outside the door, Qiu Chen heard the hearty laughter of Yang Shuyong and Yang Shumeng in the human voice, and then remembered that he hadn't told a few people to talk nonsense just now, so he quickly jumped up from the kang and walked out of the inner room.

Yufeng Qingxing, who was in the outhouse, saw that her wife walked out in high spirits, her face was relieved, Yufeng quickly took the cloak and put it on Qiu Chen, Qingxing had already lifted the curtain and looked out, twisted her head and smiled: "It sounds like the two uncles are back!" ”

Qiu Chen also rejoiced easily, beckoned the two girls and said, "Listen to what must have been bought, let's go, go and see!" ”

The three of them walked out of the house, and while walking along the eaves of the porch to the front yard, Qiu Chen said casually: "I don't need to tell my uncles about the visit of the adult just now, so as not to worry about them!" ”

Qingxing turned her head to look at Yufeng, and the two responded in unison.

Passing through the moon gate of the second courtyard, I was about to see the Daxing family walking in with a happy face, and when I saw Qiu Chen and the others, I quickly stopped and bowed on my knees, and then said with a smile: "Madam, the slave is about to go in to call you, the two uncles are going this time, just in time for a few old tricks from the Wang family temple to come back from the mountain, and beat back two roe deer, a bear, two wolves, and more than a dozen hares and pheasants...... That's all, you don't need to buy it anymore, it's enough for us to celebrate the New Year. ”

Qiu Chen also felt happy when he heard about so many prey. In this era, there are far more beasts than humans, and there are no animal protection laws, so it is really best to buy a few to satisfy your cravings.

After meeting the Daxing family, the four masters and servants entered the East Cross Courtyard together, and in front of the kitchen of the East Cross Courtyard, the helpers who had finished their work surrounded the three floors inside and the three floors outside, all of them were crowding and pointing and laughing. Seeing Qiu Chen and the four of them coming, the crowd automatically moved out of the way for the four of their masters and servants to pass.

Walking into the crowd, Qiu Chen saw that the wild things were still piled up on a board car and had not been unloaded, Yang Shuyong and Yang Shumeng brothers took Daxing Qingjiang, and there were actually Qin Yi, Qin Li and An Lu, all gathered around the frame car, pointing at the pile of wool that was piled high on the car, soft and dirty.

The prey was piled up on top of each other, and the fur was covered with dried blood, and the blood was still bright red because of the cold...... Qiu Chen only glanced at it, then lost interest and quickly turned his head away.

Yang Shuyong was the first to see Qiu Chen, and greeted with a smile: "Sister, let's go today, just in time for a few old tricks to come back from the mountain......

Looking at the eldest brother's red face because of excitement, Qiu Chen didn't want to shake his hands and leave, and listened to Yang Shuyong with a smile about the experience of going to Wang's temple, zuihou, Yang Shuyong said: "...... We told a few veterans that we would enter the Layue Gate, and around Laba, they would be able to hunt a wild beast and come back, and when the time came, they would send it directly to us. ”

There are many people in the family, and there are still New Year's gifts to give, and it is not a waste to collect more wild things, Qiu Chen also responded with a smile, said a few words, and turned around and left the East Cross Courtyard.

For dinner, I ate the meat of the roe deer that was cleaned up. This thing is long in running, the whole body is lean and there is no fat at all, Daxing's family used the most primitive method to stew in the cauldron for more than an hour, the bones are crispy and the meat is rotten, and the fragrance is very. Qiu Chen also gave it back, a group of small ones kept talking, a big pot of stewed roe deer meat actually ate it clean, and after eating, they all ate it one by one, shyly with a small belly, lined up on the kang, and listened to Yang Shuyong Yang Shumeng's story about buying prey with bright eyes, as well as all kinds of hunting fun stories they listened to from the hunting masters.

The family was very engaged in listening to what they were talking about, and Qiu Chen was bored sitting alone, so he simply got up and went to the front yard.

Today's incident is thanks to Qin Li's rescue of the scene...... She should have gone over and thanked her.

Besides, Hu Yanxun lost his mind and shouted loudly, and he didn't know how much he was heard. She has something to hide in this matter...... However, she didn't plan to confess on her own initiative; If Qin Zheng asked, she would no longer hide it.

Walking out of the back room, Qingxing Yufeng hurriedly got up and waited for Qiu Chen to put on a cloak, Yufeng had already taken a lantern from the door frame and lit it with a candle, picked it in her hand, took a step forward, and led Qiu Chen out of the door according to the light.

The three of them went out of the second door together and went straight to the main room in the front yard.

Yufeng Qingxing took the lantern, took Qiu Chen's next cloak, and waited in the living room, Qiu Chen slightly adjusted his dress, bypassed the fan and entered the western room.

An Lu and Qin Li stood outside the door waiting, and when they saw Qiu Chen coming, Qin Li immediately smiled and reported inside, but he didn't wait, and then smiled and picked the door curtain and invited Qiu Chen in.

"It's hard work!" Qiu Chen smiled and nodded to Qin Li, and Qin Li smiled back. The two of them didn't say anything to each other, but they both knew that Qiu Chen's thanks didn't just mean the matter of opening the curtains.

Entering the back room, Qiu Chen saw Qin Zheng standing upright in the kang without any surprise, Tang Wenyong sitting on the side of the door, and the two of them sitting facing each other with two cups of tea, and did not play chess......

"Mrs. Lin came just in time, and was about to tell you, tonight's roe deer meat is stewed well, crispy and fragrant, and the teeth and cheeks are fragrant...... Hehe, it's the most haode game I've ever tasted! As soon as Tang Wenyong saw Qiu Chen, he smiled and praised.

Qiu Chen also smiled and bent his eyes slightly, sat on the official hat chair opposite him, and said with a smile: "I think so too!" ”

Tang Wenyong daxiao: "You're really welcome!" ”

Qiu Chen raised his eyebrows: "It is said that women should be gentle and supple...... I'm not learning to follow you, and I'm not boasting, so what's so embarrassing for me! ”

Tang Wenyong laughed even more, raised his hand and pointed at Qiu Chen, laughing breathlessly and said: "Since there is such a cook who can make wild meat, how can we guard Baoshan empty?" Just now I was telling Master Hou, there is a mountain behind our house, after the heavy snow covers the mountain, it is difficult for wild animals to forage for food, and there is snow that is very easy to track...... Instead of going to other villages to buy it, let's go into the mountains and hunt some prey by ourselves......"

"Hunting in the mountains?" Qiu Chen hadn't thought about this idea, just these people in her family can still farm and drive cars, but they can't hunt alone...... Uh, it doesn't matter if she dug a trap and caught Xiangxiang, it was a mistake!

"Well," Qin Zheng, who had always rarely spoken, unexpectedly picked up the conversation, nodded, and said, "Hunting is also the same as marching, and taking the children with you can be regarded as a workout!" ”
