In the middle of the night, when she was the most asleep, Ge Kailin was lying awake on the bed, but she didn't dare to move, for fear of waking up Mother Liu, who was only worried about her.

Liu's mother is getting older, and her sleep is getting lighter and lighter, as long as Ge Kailin moves a little, Liu's mother will wake up.

Xu Xiang had tried her best to hide her breath when she came in, but Ge Kailin still felt it, and the weaker her body was, the more keenly she felt.

The familiar unique atmosphere of coldness and arrogance is all owned by Xu Xiang.

"Brother Xiang?"

"Got you?"

"It's that I'm not asleep."

"Why don't you sleep yet?"

"It's light sleep."

"How do you know it's me?"

"By your breath."

"It's really acute."

Now that he has been recognized, Xu Xiang no longer deliberately hides, sits gently on the side of the bed, and caresses Ge Kailin's head with his big hand.

Ge Kailin felt awkward, but she didn't dodge it, and let Xu Xiang smooth her hair.

In the darkness, the two spoke softly.

"Brother Xiang, why are you back?"

"Take the army back to Beijing, passing by."

"Huh."

"Laughing at what?"

"Happy."

"How does your body feel?"

"I can't die for a while."

"Don't say such things, I will definitely find a way to cure your illness."

As soon as Ge Kailin mentioned the word death, there was a hint of anger in Xu Xiang's tone, and the two fell silent for a while.

After a while, Xu Xiang sighed: "Don't just put the word dead on your lips in the future, I have known you since you were a toddler, and it has been almost ten years now, it can be said that you are what I watched grow up, you are very similar to my eighth sister, in my heart I have long regarded you as a sister, I will not let you leave early like the eighth sister." ”

Ge Kailin sighed, the short and thin boy who was cool back then has grown into a forbearant and decisive young man, and Xu Xiang may not say a word if he stays in Ge's house all day, but tonight. Xu Xiang said more than the months combined, and the changes are not small.

"Brother Xiang, don't you want to see what I look like?"

Xu Xiang chose to visit her in the middle of the night, definitely because he didn't want others to know his whereabouts. Presumably he won't stay long, so she still tries her best to satisfy his thoughts, and besides, she also wants to see what Xu Xiang looks like now.

"I can already see Kailin's appearance."

"Huh?" Gordon opened her eyes. Her eyes were full of black, and she could only see the shadow of Xu Xiang on the edge of the bed, she couldn't figure out how Xu Xiang could see her appearance clearly, could it be that this guy belonged to an owl.

"Hehe," Qi Biao let out a laughful voice in the darkness and explained: "I can see at night, and Master Sun said that this is due to the poison in me, and with the removal of the toxin, I can see things more and more clearly at night." I lit the lights at night just so that others could see me. ”

It's really an owl, Lin Fang's eyes couldn't help but widen: "And this matter, then your family can save a lot of candle money?" ”

I thought to myself, this is the same effect as a blind man lighting a lamp.

Xu Xiang was silent, he was used to Ge Kailin's thinking jumping, but he was still a little funny.

Involuntarily flicked on Ge Kailin's forehead: "You lie flat, I'll massage your head acupuncture points, when I was a child, I often had trouble day and night due to poisonous hair, and the nurse used this method to calm my nerves." It can't completely suppress the toxicity, but it's not useless. ”

Ge Kailin shook her head: "Wouldn't it be more convenient for you to order me to sleep in the cave, you are tired from traveling all night." ”

"You lie down." couldn't help but say, Xu Xiang used ingenuity to make Ge Kailin lie flat. Begin massaging on Gordon's head.

At the same time, he said softly: "The sleeping point is for emergency, you can't use it casually, if you don't use it well, it will hurt." ”

"Uh-huh," it hurts.

"What's the matter, isn't it too hard? Then I'll be lighter. Xu Xiang stopped suddenly.

After a short pause, he started to massage again, and the strength in his hands was much less, and after a few presses, he heard Ge Kailin chuckle.

Qi Biao asked, "Happy again?" ”

"Hehe, it doesn't hurt anymore, it's so itchy." Ge Kailin laughed.

Because of the pain he had just made Ge Kailin, Xu Xiang didn't dare to exert himself anymore, and almost stopped with his hands on his hair, which made Lin Fang's scalp itch.

Xu Xiang adjusted repeatedly, and finally figured out the right hand strength and rhythm for Ge Kailin, and Ge Kailin gradually fell asleep.

Xu Xiang stared at Ge Kailin for a moment, and then walked out of the meditation room.

With a gesture, the secret guard who had been following Ge Kailin appeared, bowed and saluted: "Master." ”

Xu Xiang didn't speak, stared at the dark guard silently, staring at the dark guard's back in a cold sweat, and Xu Xiang waved his hand to let the dark guard retreat.

He actually wanted to ask the dark guard, but he didn't know where to start.

Xu Xiang is in the barracks, but the situation of the Ge family is clearly grasped, especially Ge Kailin, this girl he pities as much as the eighth sister, Ge Kailin's every move is reported to him all the time, what can he ask the secret guard?

The next day, the two teams arrived in Yuncheng County successively.

The first to arrive was the follow-up material team in Lei Dongzhukou's mouth, in addition to transporting a large number of items to build a warm shed, there were also enough materials for the Gezhen garrison and the original thousands of victims to live for half a year.

Wu Licui and Zhou Daquan and his wife, as envoys of the imperial court, also arrived together.

Of course, the father-in-law is the most important person in the team.

But because the father-in-law was too old, he really couldn't stand the cold and bumps, and the convoy had to slow down again and again, and the date when the convoy arrived in Gezhen was ten days later than Lei Dongzhu said at most.

If the convoy had arrived a few days late, Lei Dongzhu's garrison would have starved due to a shortage of food and grass.

When the material team entered the territory of Yuncheng County, the father-in-law had already notified the county order with someone quickly, and came to Ge Town to listen to the decree with the mayor.

When the material team arrived at Gezhen slowly, Xia Chengxiang, who was full of shock, was already waiting at the intersection of entering Gezhen.

The carriage of the father-in-law did not stop, and drove directly into the temporary town office, and after a little rest and rectification, the trembling father-in-law read the holy decree.

The holy decree said that Gezhen will be a special winter supply of fresh vegetables for the imperial court planting place, by Wu Licui and Zhou Daquan in charge, with the county magistrate of Yuncheng County Xia Chengxiang, and Ge Tianyu, the mayor of Ge Town, fully cooperated, the workers are mainly victims of this year's floods, the number of victims is not enough, in order to recruit others, if violated, will be heavily punished.

Someone who dares to deliberately interfere is regarded as resisting the emperor's order.

After the decree was read, Xia Chengxiang received the decree, and the more he pondered it, the more doubts he became.

It has only been 20 days since Gezhen was officially established. He hasn't had time to report yet, how does the emperor know about Ge Zhen and Ge Tianyu.

Moreover, Gezhen is only a small town for the resettlement of disaster victims, and I don't know how many such towns there are in the province. Why did the emperor choose Gezhen as the planting place for fresh vegetables in winter, and also sent troops to station.

Going deeper, he didn't dare to think about it, let alone ask, he only felt that Ge Tianyu was not simple. It's better not to offend in the future.

After reading the holy decree, the sick and weak father-in-law could no longer support it, and was helped to Ge Tianyu's lounge, and the accompanying senior doctor hurriedly treated the father-in-law.

After tossing for a long time, my father-in-law was still unconscious, and his breath was getting weaker and weaker, but Imperial Doctor Gao was helpless.

Xia Chengxiang and Ge Tianyu are also anxious, if their father-in-law has three longs and two shorts in Ge Town, it will also be troublesome.

A cold voice sounded: "What's so alarming?" ”

Ge Tianyu was pleasantly surprised, and his face was respectful: "General Xu." Grandpa Fu fell ill. ”

The person who came was Xu Xiang, who was dressed in military uniform, and the aura exuded from his body made the people present bow their heads and dare not look up.

Xu Xiang nodded to indicate that he understood, and went to Grandpa Fu's sickbed.

Imperial Physician Gao had never seen Xu Xiang, but he was shocked by Xu Xiang's aura and couldn't help but retreat to the side.

Xu Xiang's fingers put on Fu Gonggong's wrist, frowned and snorted: "Come to Dr. Tan, the others are scattered." ”

Ge Tianyu hurriedly sent people back to the house to find Tan Liu'er, except for Ge Tianyu. The others hurried away, lest they run slowly and be frozen by the aura of this great general.

Wu Licui and Zhou Daquan went to Lei Dongzhu, and then Lei Dongzhu accompanied him to inspect the wasteland and plan various matters related to the construction of the greenhouse. Xia Chengxiang followed the whole process, wrote down the instructions of the envoy, and did not dare to slack off.

Tan Liu'er soon came to the theater and simply treated Gonggong Fu, and Imperial Doctor Gao wanted to stand by and watch, but was squeezed aside by Ge Zhongsi. Doctor Gao felt very unhappy, and with Xuxiang here, he didn't dare to do anything.

Tan Liuer and Ge Zhongsi gave a massage and needle, and handed things to each other, the couple cooperated tacitly, and Gonggong Fu's face began to improve, and his expression became serene, and he was dumbfounded by Doctor Gao.

He entered the Tai Hospital after layers of assessments, and even the patient who was helpless was rescued by a village woman.

Tan Liuer explained what Imperial Physician Gao should pay attention to next, and after prescribing medicine, she and Ge Zhongsi left.

Xu Xiang got up and left the house, and Ge Tianyu then invited Xu Xiang to go to another room to rest.

There were only Ge Tianyu and Xu Xiang in the room, and the two sat opposite each other, and Ge Tianyu had many questions waiting for Xu Xiang to answer.

Ge Tianyu didn't speak, just waiting for Xu Xiang to say it himself.

And Xu Xiang was even more calm, his face was calm, as comfortable and peaceful as when he sat in the courtyard of the Ge family and poured himself a drink.

"Alas-" Ge Tianyu was defeated first, "Did Kevin come back with you?" ”

"No, he went to the capital to do something first."

"The rejection book is canceled, Kevin can continue to read, has he told you about his plans?"

"Yes, he said that since he has entered the army, he doesn't want to give up halfway, which is not in conflict with studying."

Ge Tianyu sighed: "Your aunt and I are getting old, this life is like this, you and the Kevin brothers, as a man, you should have the ambition of a man, no matter how many of you are in the future, as long as it is something you are willing to do, your aunt and I will fully support it, as for Kailin, her health is not good, and your aunt and I will guard her for the rest of our lives." ”

Xu Xiang felt a dull pain in his heart.

Ge Kailin is just wasting time now, if he can't develop an antidote, waiting for Ge Tianyu and his wife, there is only the grief of the white-haired man sending the black-haired man, he has already scattered his manpower to help Sun Fuzi find medicine, but there is still no good news.

Xu Xiang changed the topic: "I know that my uncle has a lot of questions, but I can't explain more now, I can only tell Uncle Sù, the cancellation of the rejection book, my uncle is the mayor of the town, Lei Dongzhu leads the army to garrison, and Gezhen specializes in supplying fresh vegetables to the imperial court in winter, all this qiē is not a coincidence, but a deliberate arrangement between me and General Wu." ”

The answer to Xu Xiang was just a long sigh from Ge Tianyu.

To tell the truth, Ge Tianyu is not keen on official positions, he only cares about the safety and well-being of his wife and children, but he understands that Xu Xiang and Wu Ziyi arranged this qiē to ensure the safety of his family.

Xu Xiang continued: "I didn't come back here on purpose, but on the way back to Beijing with the army, I heard that there was a large influx of new victims in Gezhen, and there was a shortage of winter goods and residences, so I took a detour back to take a look. I have ordered the soldiers to set up military tents in the gathering place of the victims, and food and winter supplies have also been left behind, which can temporarily alleviate the shortage of supplies in Gezhen. ”

Ge Tianyu was shocked: "No, you dispose of military funds without authorization, how can you explain to the imperial court, if someone impeaches, it will be a felony." ”

Xu Xiang shook his head: "Don't worry, since I dare to make this decision, I am sure to get away with it." ”

Someone outside the door shouted: "General, Gonggong Fu is awake." ”

"Well, get rid of everyone next to you, and I'll go over." Xu Xiang drank clearly.

Said softly to Ge Tianyu: "I'll leave later, leave a small team of people for my uncle to drive, I will find a way to follow up the items and the resettlement of the victims, Fu Gonggong is afraid that he will have to live in Ge Zhen for a few days to recuperate, this matter is not too worrying, Fu Gonggong is cautious, enthusiastic about Buddhist things, and other things, my uncle will watch and do it." ”

After saying that, he went to see Grandpa Fu, Ge Tianyu did not follow, but instructed He Liu to arrange Grandpa Fu's cultivation.

After everything was arranged, Xu Xiang came out of Gonggong Fu, nodded to Ge Tianyu, and left directly.

The little eunuch who was waiting for Grandpa Fu came out and summoned Ge Tianyu into the house, and Grandpa Fu had something to order.

Ge Tianyu followed the little eunuch in, Gonggong Fu was already sitting at the desk, and Ge Tianyu saluted.

Father-in-law Fu said with a smile: "Master Ge doesn't need to be polite, with the current state of our family, I'm afraid I'm going to bother Master Ge." ”

Ge Tianyu saluted again: "If your father-in-law has something, just give orders." ”

Father-in-law Fu asked to live in his own temple to recuperate, Ge Tianyu fully cooperated, and settled Father-in-law Fu, it was almost dark, and Ge Tianyu, who was relieved, had time to go to the small Zen courtyard where Ge Kailin lived to visit his baby daughter.

As soon as Ge Tianyu entered the courtyard gate, his arm was hugged by the grinning Ge Kailin: "Daddy." ”

Liu's mother has been paying attention to the situation outside, and Ge Kailin knew that her father was coming to see her, so she stayed at the door early.

Ge Tianyu complained: "It's cold outside, just wait for your father in the house, don't catch the wind and cold anymore." ”

"Hehe, daddy is too worried, Mother Liu dresses her daughter like a fat bear, and it is quite difficult to get infected with the wind and cold." Ge Kailin's two small hands with thick cotton gloves slapped vigorously on her body.

Ge Tianyu immediately smiled, her daughter did wear a lot.

"How can a female baby's family use a fat bear as a metaphor," Ge Tianyu laughed.

Stretched out his hand and tried to flick his daughter's forehead as usual, but found that he couldn't start, and his daughter was tightly wrapped from top to bottom, except for two eyes, because she was overwhelmed with clothes, and her body looked round.

Ge Tianyu couldn't help laughing: "It's really like a fat bear." ”

When placing Fu Gonggong, Ge Tianyu talked to the old monk about wanting to take Ge Kailin back to get together with Wu Licui, but the old monk did not agree, saying that it was not good for Ge Kailin to go out of the temple now, so Ge Tianyu had to give up, and his daughter's body was more important than anything.

The daughter's eyes, which were not small, looked bigger at this time, Ge Tianyu was distressed, and put his backhand around his daughter's shoulder and entered the house. (To be continued.) )
