Chapter 13: A Long Conversation Between Father and Daughter
As soon as she entered the General's Mansion, Xiao Tao greeted her, and saw that her young lady was carried out by the Nine Emperor Princes, and then hugged back, and she was secretly happy in her heart: Her young lady finally kept the clouds open and saw the moon.
Putting Qingchen on the bed, Zhou Xiao did not leave immediately, but poured a cup of tea by himself, found a comfortable seat for himself on Qingchen's soft couch, picked up the book that Qingchen put aside, and began to read carefully......
Seeing that Zhou Xiao had no intention of leaving, Qingchen couldn't help but say, "I said His Royal Highness King Yong, you don't plan to spend the night here tonight, right?" ”
Zhou Xiao didn't raise his head, and said, "When General An comes back, the king will naturally leave." ”
"Why wait until my father comes back? Miss Ben is going to bed, please come back. Qingchen said angrily.
Seeing Qingchen pouting and puffing out his cheeks, Zhou Xiao's thousand-year-old frozen face actually showed a rare smile: "There is no man in the family, you are a woman, and you are not afraid?" ”
"Miss Ben has been like this for so many years, why, after being whipped by His Royal Highness King Yong, she became golden? You'd better hurry up, you're scared of me! ”
Zhou Xiao didn't pay attention to what Ren Qingchen said, he didn't even raise his eyebrows.
Qingchen saw that he was unmoved, so he had no choice but to call Xiao Tao: "Little peach stinky girl, come and pour tea for your young lady!" shouted a few times, but Xiao Tao didn't answer. It was Zhou Xiao who picked up the teapot and took the initiative to pour her a cup of tea......
Even more leaking sound, the night seemed very quiet, listening to the sound of insects in the window, looking at Zhou Xiao who was reading by himself, Qingchen did not feel lonely in this other world for the first time, and fell asleep in the flickering candlelight.
The next day, Xiao Tao was already waiting at the door with washing water. Yesterday, when King Yong was leaving, he instructed that the young lady was frightened and had to be served well, and if there was any mistake, she would not be able to protect her head.
If it was before, Xiao Tao would have woken up her young lady with a loud shout, but after last night, she cheered up her spirits, although her young lady was easy-going, but King Yong was not a kind lord.
Qingchen woke up quietly, a ray of sunlight had shone into the window, and Zhou Xiao's figure had long been missing on the soft couch, only the book he was reading was lying quietly on the coffee table.
Xiao Tao heard the sound in the house, gently pushed the door in, and carefully waited for the dust to rinse her mouth, clean her hands, and dress up. Qingchen slowly spoke: "Where did you go last night?" "This girl, if you don't beat it again, you will be lawless.
Xiao Tao was startled, her young lady hadn't spoken to her in this tone for a long time, she said tremblingly: "Miss forgive me, last night King Yong ordered the slave maid not to enter, so the slave didn't dare to ......."
Qingchen snorted coldly: "Are you my slave or his slave?" ”
Xiao Tao knelt down on her knees and said hurriedly: "Miss, the slave is wrong, the slave is the slave of the young lady, and the slave and the maid are the slaves of the young lady in this life." Who said that her young lady was easy-going, she retracted what she had just said.
Qingchen didn't say much to her, and said coldly: "Take me to see my father." ”
When Qingchen walked into the study, Hua Yaoyun was studying the art of war with An Shuxia. Qingchen shook his head and sighed: What kind of parents are these, their daughters are so sick that they want to live and die, and they still have the heart to read military books in the study.
In fact, it was Qingchen who blamed them. Last night, as soon as An Mingxia and Hua Yaoyun came back from the palace, they hurried to the East Cross Courtyard, which is the small courtyard where Qingchen lived. Before I got to the door, I saw Zhou Xiao who happened to come out. Zhou Xiao stopped the two elders at the door, the reason was: Qingchen had fallen asleep, and the imperial doctor said that she needed to recuperate.
The two had no choice but to return to their room under the eyes of the prince.
Seeing Qingchen enter the door, Hua Yao Yunbing threw away the book and stepped forward and said, "Chen'er, why did you get up?" The imperial doctor said that you should recuperate, if you have something to tell your subordinates, why run out by yourself. ”
Although An Mingxia didn't say anything, he was also distressed, he owed too much to this daughter.
Qingchen said softly: "Mother, my daughter is fine, you don't have to worry." ”
Hua Yaoyun still had something to say, Qingchen turned to An Mingxia and said, "Father, I have something to tell you." ”
An Mingxia stood up and said, "Come with me." He walked out of the study on his own. Hua Yaoyun wanted to keep up, but was stopped by An Mingxia's look. The fierce wife in the eyes of outsiders, in front of An Mingxia, is actually as docile as a cat.
An Mingxia walked silently in front, and An Qingchen followed silently behind. As they walked, the two entered a small martial arts training hall, which can also be said to be a small armory.
An Mingxia spoke first: "You are my daughter, no matter how different you have become from before, you are still my daughter." ”
Qingchen was secretly shocked in his heart: he really saw it.
"You know, I'm not." Dust Removal Road.
Hearing Qingchen say this, An Mingxia was not surprised: "No, you are wrong." Now that you are my true daughter, don't you feel so much like your father? ”
Qingchen was surprised to hear it, could it be that the ancients had such a broad mind.
The conversation between the two takes place in an eerie atmosphere. It's obviously two strangers who have just met, but it seems that they are really a father and daughter who have reunited after a long absence......
Qingchen said that he would dissolve the marriage contract with Mo Xuanran. An Mingxia said, whatever you like, as a father, you also know that Xuan Ran is not your lover.
An Mingxia was so open-minded that Qingchen was very surprised: "Knowing that he is not a good person for his daughter, why did his father still allow this family business?" ”
"I originally wanted you to take care of it, but it turned out to be ......, alas, this matter was not considered by the father."
Qingchen said that he wanted to learn some self-defense kung fu so as not to be bullied by Zhou Xiao. An Mingxia said, I'll find you a better master.
Qingchen said that he wanted to go out from time to time to see the rivers and mountains of Dazhou. An Mingxia said that his father also had this intention, and then took out a map of the rivers and mountains of the Great Zhou Dynasty, pointed to a mountain range and said: "This is Bishan, the famous spiritual mountain of the Great Zhou, and there are all kinds of rare and exotic beasts on the mountain." The wild flowers are fragrant, the green trees are towering, and there is a deep valley with birds singing and flowers and a babbling stream. I used to live there with your mother for a while," he paused, "and you were conceived at that time." After speaking, he smiled shyly. Laughing so much that Qingchen's little heart was pounding, General Anguo of Da Zhou, his father, if he smiled like this on the battlefield, it was estimated that he would be able to surrender without a fight.
Then he pointed to a large green area next to Bishan and said: "To the west of Bishan is the vast grassland, with fertile water and grass, and flocks of cattle and sheep......
Qingchen said: "It turns out that my father also loves food. ”
An Mingxia nodded in agreement, and showed a yearning look, and saw that Qingchen also had a strong interest in this roast leg of lamb.
"When you have leisure, my father will definitely take you all over the famous mountains of the Great Zhou Dynasty and eat all the delicacies in the world."
Qingchen said: It turns out that he is also a foodie.
……
When Qingchen walked out of the martial arts training hall, it was almost noon. The father and daughter chatted for two hours, the more they talked, the more they talked, the more they fell in love, as if the two were a father and daughter who had not seen each other for many years. Before leaving, An Mingxia suddenly said: "Follow me up the mountain tomorrow and meet Master Ran." Qingchen nodded in agreement.
