Chapter 36: Ingenuity

Chapter 36 Ingenuity

Compared with the chickens and dogs jumping in the Hou Mansion in the capital, the Zaolin Villa on the outskirts of Beijing is full of laughter.

Because of the combined treatment of Li's mother's acupuncture and decoction, the old lady's cold and headache in Jianguo Mansion have been greatly alleviated.

And Yang Linghao has already subsided from fever, even if he is weaker because of premature birth, he is still running happily under the jujube tree at this time, the sound of laughter echoes in the jujube forest, listening to Yang Linghao's clear laughter, Chen's heart that has been hanging for a few days is finally greatly relieved.

The old lady of Jianguo took pity on Situ Jiao and thanked Li's mother for helping to solve the difficulty, so she deliberately left Situ Jiao's master and servant to eat in Zaolin Courtyard.

Chen even happily instructed the cook in Zhuangzi and the housekeeper beside him to prepare a sumptuous lunch.

Because the people were outside Beijing, and the Jianguo Mansion was a family of military generals, they did not pay much attention to the defense of men and women, so although men and women did not sit at the same table, they opened the two seats together in the flower hall of the main courtyard of the other courtyard.

Autumn is the harvest season, except for the difference in the fruit trees planted in Zaolin Villa and Taolin Courtyard, the other outputs are similar, and almost all of them are fresh vegetables, chickens, ducks and fish that are native to the courtyard, not to mention fresh.

However, in addition to the local products of the other courtyard, there are also pheasants and hares hunted by the father and son of Jianguo Gong with their guards in the back mountain.

What made Situ Jiao feel most relaxed was that there was no such thing as the ordinary family eating without saying a word on the table in the Jianguo Mansion, everyone chatted while eating, and the atmosphere was so good that Situ Jiao forgot to eat.

Situ Jiao's humanistic and interesting stories in the north border were so excited that he couldn't help but be stunned, and his eyes flashed with deep envy and yearning.

In her previous life and present life, she was just a caged bird, even if she left the door of the Lin family and entered the nunnery in her previous life, her footprints were only limited to the radius of the nunnery.

I just don't know if there is a chance in this life, so that she can go out and see, and it is best to be able to walk through the mountains and rivers of Nanling.

Go to the north to take a look at the North Border Pass, feel the different customs of Beichen Kingdom, and also go to see the different cultural landscapes from Nanling Kingdom.

Take a look at Nanbianguan and get a feel for the rainforest.

It's just that when he thought of his life experience, Situ Jiao's eyes couldn't help but flash a trace of gloom.

Although the gloom in Situ Jiao's eyes disappeared very quickly, it still did not escape Yang Lingxiao's inquiring eyes.

This girl is only twelve years old, and according to Situ Yang's description, she is simply a young lady from a family who was sent to another courtyard without leaving home.

But why did her eyes always flash from time to time with all kinds of complicated looks that people couldn't understand and couldn't explain, as if the person in front of her was not a twelve-year-old girl, but a weathered person, thinking like this made Yang Lingxiao's heart suddenly break out again.

Will the villain in front of him be the same soul that has passed through as himself?

Situ Jiao had something on his body that Yang Lingxiao couldn't understand, just like a mystery, which made him want to find out.

The meal was enjoyed by the guests and the hosts, and the old couple of Jianguo were sent back to the courtyard where they lived, and Chen was about to take Situ Jiao back to the courtyard where she lived to continue talking, when a guard came in from outside quickly to report: "Grandpa Guo, there is a general outside, claiming to be General Han, asking to see Grandpa Guo." ”

General Han, isn't that the eldest uncle? Situ Jiao's eyes couldn't help but light up when she heard this, and she looked at Chen with burning eyes, eager to see the general immediately to find out.

But in the end, remembering his own identity, Situ Jiao forcibly suppressed the ecstasy in her heart, and just quietly obeyed Chen's arrangement and avoided behind the curtain in the flower hall.

How could the Chen family not understand Situ Jiao's mood, let alone Situ Jiao, even if Chen heard that it was General Han who sent someone to contact, he couldn't help but be overjoyed.

After all, the Chen family, the Han family, the founding prince Yang Yaohui, the Han generals Han Jiezhi and Situ Kong, they were all peers who grew up together, and the old people who had not seen each other for more than ten years suddenly sent someone to contact, and they were overjoyed.

Jianguo Gong saw that Chen took Situ Jiao to avoid behind the curtain of the flower hall, and couldn't help but shake his head and smile dotingly, and did not have any objection to Chen's behavior, but ordered the guards to bring in the people sent by General Han.

It's a young general, but it looks like he should be a trustworthy person next to General Han.

As soon as the visitor came in, he knelt down on one knee and hugged his fist in front of Jianguo Gong and said, "I've seen Grandpa Guo!" The general of my family learned that Grandpa Guo was adjusting here, and his subordinates came to inquire about the itinerary of Grandpa Guo and his entourage into Beijing. ”

"Little General, please, where is General Han going now? What's the plan? Jianguo Gong asked.

"The general is still fifty miles away from here, today and tomorrow are ready to stop at the Chunzhou post station to rest and recuperate, and enter Beijing at noon the day after tomorrow, and the general's itinerary has been reported from the post station to the capital." The youngster hugged his fists again.

"Hahaha, okay, the queen of my country will enter Beijing with General Han on the other day!" Yang Yaohui laughed loudly, and with a wave of his big hand, he immediately set the time to enter Beijing the day after tomorrow.

The Chen family behind the curtain looked speechless, and couldn't help but make Situ Jiao's face smile.

Situ Jiao has indescribable envy and amazement for the affection between Jianguo Gong and his wife, and then she will also think about what the situation will be between Situ Kong and Han in her heart, naturally she will not think that Situ Kong and Han will be the same as Jianguo Gong and his wife.

But now is not the time to think about this, as long as the situation between her parents is, she can only explore it with her heart when she returns to the house.

If it is saved, Situ Jiao will definitely be the glue between them, so that the relationship between the parents will warm up, if it is not saved, Situ Jiao does not intend to make it difficult for others, but it is better to leave Han and Situ Kong to live separately.

Of course, she still has to return to the Hou Mansion to make plans, and now there is another opportunity to return to the capital in front of Situ Jiao, that is, her uncle Han Jiezhi, the general of Han.

Chunzhou Station? Situ Jiao secretly thought about it in her heart.

Chunzhou is the closest small town to the capital, although it does not belong to the capital, but it is adjacent to the capital, and this post station is built in the area that intersects with the capital in order to facilitate the officials who enter the capital to report on their work before entering the capital.

At this time, it is only three o'clock at the end, and there should be time to go to the post station to see the eldest aunt.

Yes, that's it!

"Jiaojiao, but you want to see your eldest aunt?" Seeing Situ Jiao nodding and smiling suddenly, Chen became suspicious in his heart, and after thinking about it, he guessed the general idea in Situ Jiao's heart.

"I do have this thought, does my aunt think it's inappropriate?" Situ Jiao was called by Chen, her face couldn't help but stiffen, her big watery eyes looked at Chen, and asked a little timidly.

"If Jiaojiao wants to visit the inn, my aunt is willing to accompany her." Chen looked at Situ Jiao with a smile and gave her an unexpected answer.

Chen's words made Situ Jiao's eyes brighter: "Is what my aunt said true? ”

"Don't Jiaojiao want to go to the station?" Chen looked at Situ Jiao, who was so excited that his face was a little shining, and quipped.

"Think about it, Jiaojiao has this intention, but Jiaojiao has never seen her uncle and aunt, and she is worried about whether she will be kicked out! If you have an aunt to go with you, it will just solve the difficulty of Jiaojiao. Situ Jiao took Chen's arm and shook it from side to side, her delicate little face was full of the coquettish appearance of her little daughter's family.

Situ Jiao's naΓ―ve attitude instantly softened Chen's heart, not to mention that she originally had the intention of going to the post station to talk to General Han's wife Fang Shi, even if she didn't, she would agree to accompany Situ Jiao to the post station at this time.
