Chapter 243: Protecting the Country

Ji Yuan didn't understand what he meant, seeing that Li Chengxu had a tired look on his face, he thought that he had worked hard for a while, so he hurriedly went to help him up, poured another cup of tea and brought it to Li Chengxu, and found a chair to sit down in the next head, Fang said: "Who is he?" ”

"It's the Rong family." Li Chengxu slowly skimmed the tea soup foam and said lightly.

He always plans and then acts, this time he recuperated in the house for many days, and he had already thought about the pattern of the world. Hearing that the Rong family's army was stationed on the Jiang defense line, he had to think more about the purpose of the Rong family's move.

Using the chess game to make a bet is the presumption method he has always loved to use, Baizi represents the Rong family, Heizi represents the Li family, he keeps changing his position to finish this game of chess, the more he gets to the end, the more frightened he is, until the last move, he understands that he is negligent.

He neglected the Rong family's covetousness for the whole of China, and when they were really willing to be in a corner of peace, they would only be the lord of half of the country.

Tea smoke curled, and his face was hidden in the smoke, half bright and half obscure.

Ji Yuan lowered his head and locked his eyebrows, in fact, he also had his own thoughts about the Rong family, so he said: "If the two tigers fight, there must be an injury, and if the Rong family wants to go on the Northern Expedition, they have to pass the pass of our Li family, and they have to think twice before doing it for this reason." ”

"Indeed, their Rong family still knows that they are afraid of our Li family." Otherwise, the Rong family army would not be as simple as being stationed on the Jiang defense line.

Li Chengxu took a sip of tea, looked at his grandson who was as solemn as Panasonic, and was greatly comforted, put down the teacup and asked him again: "If one day, the Rong family really crosses the river defense line, what are you going to do?" ”

Ji Yuan thought for a while and said, "I want to keep the Zhang family." "Their Li family has already betrayed the previous dynasty once, how can they rebel against the present dynasty again? Isn't this what makes the Li family stink for 10,000 years?

Li Chengxu didn't think so, waved his hand and said: "No, you want to protect the country, not the Zhang family, even if you are infamous, you can't forget this principle: without a country, there is no home." ”

"Grandpa......" Ji Yuan was moved, stood up and looked at him and said, "Grandson, remember your teachings, there is no home without a country." ”

"yes, you'll remember."

Li Chengxu patted him on the shoulder, he didn't remember it back then, because the last emperor had done too many things that had brought disaster to the country and the people, so he couldn't help but betray him. And now, seeing that he wants peace and security, how can he bear to be miserable?

As if to give Ji Yuan faith, and it seemed to be to give him some warnings, when Ji Yuan said goodbye, Li Chengxu gave him his commonly used chessboard, and said: "You will lay out the chess games in the future." "The tide of history always weeds out the old in order to make way for the new. For this newcomer to the Li family, Li Chengxu has hope.

Ji Yuan got the chessboard and naturally had to be placed carefully, he carried it all the way from the main room to the back compartment, and on the way, he happened to meet Zhou Xiang who came to worship his early years.

As in the past, she had to go back to her hometown with her parents for the New Year after the 25th day of the lunar month, and she could not return to the old capital until the 15th day of the first lunar month.

At this time, she came back from Liu Jingyu and came to Wanchun by the way.

When Ji Yuan met in the corridor, both of them were unconscious.

Ji Yuan looked at her tightly wrapped appearance, like a snowman, but smiled: "Are you looking for a girl?" She's in the front yard. He still remembered that Zhou Xiang went to the wrong door, and he couldn't help but be a little joking when he said it.

Zhou Xiang also thought of that incident himself, laughed for a while, saw that he was holding a boxy board in his arms, and asked him: "What is this for?" ”

Ji Yuan turned the chessboard over and showed her it, and said, "The good things that Grandpa gave me can pass the time when I have nothing to do." ”

"Oh." Zhou Xiang nodded, stood there with his hands behind his back, and didn't know what to say for a while. She intuitively felt that she would see Ji Yuan again this time, Ji Yuan had become different from the out-of-tangle teenager in her memory, he was calm and polite, calm and serene, so that she was embarrassed to say a few jokes to him.

Ji Yuan didn't feel embarrassed, afraid that she still didn't know Wanchun's residence, so he simply said, "Otherwise, I'll take you to Nannan." As he spoke, he walked in front of Zhou Xiang in a flash, and really led her to the Wanchun courtyard before saying goodbye to her and walking away.

Zhou Xiang twisted his head and watched his back disappear at the threshold, and the hand behind his back unconsciously twisted into a twisted shape. In fact, she still has a lot to say to him, she wants to ask him if he is still looking for Chao Muyan, wants to ask him if he knows his mind, and wants to ask him, how should she be compared to Muyan?

But before she could ask, he was already gone.

Zhou Xiang was annoyed for a while and ashamed for a while, and entered Wanchun's house, and was a little stunned, the two talked for a long time, Zhou Xiang knew the misfortune in her house, and couldn't help but comfort Wanchun a few more words, and said: "Your sister-in-law, is she okay?" I met Miss Manyi on the street a few days ago, and her condition was not very good, and there was not much smile on her thin face. ”

Wan Chun said: "Sister-in-law is much better these days than before, some time ago my eldest brother's school lacked teachers, so my sister-in-law recommended herself to be a calligraphy and painting teacher for his students." Mother said that it would be good to let her have something to do, so that she would not be cranky at home. ”

"Your family is so understanding." Zhou Xiang sighed with emotion, after the early years, it was not convenient for her to stay longer, and said a few words to Wanchun to ask her to pay attention to her body, and the two of them said goodbye and left.

It was already the twenty-eighth day of the lunar month, and the school was finally willing to close for the holidays.

He has been living in the dormitory of the school with Manzhidu for the past few days, and he is just one on weekdays, but now that he has been ****** many times, he can't help but feel that the school building is too simple. First of all, it is not very convenient to wash, there is no hot water in the dormitory, you have to go to the back kitchen of the canteen to boil water by yourself to take a bath, and there is no heating in the dormitory, and the stove must be brought into the house to bake after boiling water, so you dare to take off your clothes and wash it simply. Fortunately, there is a bathhouse on the other side of the girls' dormitory, and you can still go to a bubble bath every once in a while, otherwise the whole person will feel like it stinks.

The matter of personal hygiene has been solved, and the food and clothing are not good again. Manzhi is used to living at home, and there is heating in winter, so how do you know what it feels like to be cold? I didn't want to go to school, but because of the lack of funds, I only gave each person a thick bedding in the dormitory, barely surviving the winter.

Manzhi endured the cold at first, and after a few days, she felt that her intuition was about to be unable to reach out when she went to class again, so she sighed while hurrying to demonstrate to the students. Primol passed by the window, and his heart was very unpleasant. (To be continued.) )
