"Of course I don't have as much taste for this kind of thing as you, just like you're not as good at boxing as I am. And this place is not for you to live in, and it may be a waste to have too much taste. Li Gai quipped.

He saw Lin Shan rubbing his face, and then said with concern: "How is it, are your teeth okay?"

Lin Shan picked up the teacup and saluted Li Gai: "Thanks to the mercy of the martial god's subordinates and the blessing of the ancestors of the Lin family, they are all safe."

Lifting the lid and blowing the hot tea soup, he said again: "Next time you just beg me, I won't fight with you."

Li Gai just grinned when he heard this, and there was no echo.

He stretched out his fingers and twisted the top buckle of the teacup lid in front of him a few times, and was silent for a while before he said casually: "Third child, your kung fu has regressed a lot." I'm going back tonight to deal with the things I've been accumulating over the past few days, and I'm a little worried that I can't stay here any longer. ”

"I'm fine." Lin Shan looked at Li Gai's eyes, and after calming down, he said, "I believe that I am not so prone to accidents, do you believe me?"

Without thinking much, Li Gai stared intently and said, "I believe it."

Lin Shan smiled silently and didn't say anything more.

Li Gai took a sip of tea from the teacup, and after putting down the teacup, he hesitated for a moment before he spoke again: "Third child, that day in Xianhe Restaurant, we discussed the placement of Xiao Yezi. I've thought about it in the past few days, and on the day you leave, let her go to the 'Song family'."

Lin Shan's hand holding the teacup froze: "Song family? Haven't they had any assignments lately?"

"I told my eldest brother that this is to take care of his biological daughter, and what can be the problem when he comes out in his spare time for a year." Li Gai paused when he said this, and after a moment of silence, he continued: "Let Xiao Yezi learn more about female virtues and palace rules in the Song family." I see that she has lived in Xingjia Village with you for nearly ten years. These two places of knowledge can be regarded as having no foundation at all, and they are a tomboy. It is also beneficial for her to let her get acquainted with her outside and then return to the palace. ”

Lin Shan nodded, and said while thinking, "Your idea is good. However, it's easy to let her learn female virtues and other things in the Song family, but let her learn the palace rules there, how can you let me tell her. ”

Li Gai's eyes showed embarrassment, and he said slowly: "As long as you agree with my idea." Leave her to the Song family to take care of for the time being, and we will discuss the rest of the matter slowly. There will always be a day when she will know her background, it's just a matter of how we pay attention to her. ”

"You're right." Lin Shan agreed, and after taking a sip of tea, he nodded again and said, "Let's settle this matter first."

"Hmm." Li Gai answered, but his face didn't show a relaxed expression after solving one thing. He seemed to be thinking about something, though his eyes fell on the teacup, and he couldn't make out the look in his eyes. But his move has already revealed that he has something on his mind.

This point was also quickly seen by Lin Shan, he lightly knocked the lid of the teacup, and with the crisp sound of the delicate pottery as the guide, Wen Yan said: "If you have anything else, let's say it together, I haven't forgotten it." That day in the Xianhe Restaurant, you wanted to speak but refused to say it. ”

Li Gai was indeed hesitating at this time, whether to tell Sù Lin Shan what he had been considering a few days ago.

That day in the upstairs private room of Xianhe Restaurant, his thoughts were seen by Lin Shan, but he didn't confide at that time, and only said that he would mention it after the matter of the official department was over.

Now that Lin Shan has a big event, he has a moment to relax, and it is time to talk about it. But when the words came to his lips, he found that the hesitation in his heart was still not completely resolved.

"You and I are sworn by, brothers. and together they lived and died together. Is there anything you'd rather hold back than say it?" Lin Shan looked at Li Gai, reached out and shook his hand that was fiddling with the lid of the teacup, and said in a slightly stiff tone: "Say it, no matter how big the trouble is." Third brother, I'll also help you divide it. ”

Li Gai took a deep breath and finally spoke: "The third child, in fact, more than ten years ago, I ......"

……

"What?"

In the bright room, Jiu Niang was scooping a silver spoon and adjusting the spices in several porcelain plates. After listening to what Zi Su said, who had just gotten up, she held the silver spoon in her hand and froze, turned her face sideways to look at Zi Su who was standing on the side, and frowned lightly, "Brother Lin hasn't returned for a few days?"

"I just heard what Xiao Yi said, and you really don't know." Zi Su said with some concern: "He knows that the child lives in the old mansion and does not return all night, which is not like what you often say about him."

Jiu Niang pondered for a while and said, "He is sometimes like this, when he is busy, he can forget to eat all day. We can't do much about him, but now I'm a little worried about the kid. If he really doesn't have time to take care of it, it is better to ask someone to bring the child, although there are many and miscellaneous guests in Dongfeng Building, this situation is very convenient to hide a child. ”

Zi Su nodded, she agreed with Jiu Niang's statement, but she quickly realized that Jiu Niang's decision was inappropriate, so she shook her head again and said, "Don't be too hasty, first find out if he has any plans, and then discuss whether we want to help."

"That's right." Jiuniang admired Zi Su's ability to maintain rational judgment all the time, smiled and said slowly: "I will arrange time for me to contact someone about this matter." Xiao Yi has been playing close to the kid these days, but don't tell him about these adults. ”

Shiso nodded silently.

……

"You......"

After listening to Li Gai say what he wanted to say a few times, but it was difficult to say, Lin Shan unconsciously stood up from the chair, and only said two words to Li Gai, and then said nothing else.

Seeing this, Li Gai couldn't sit still, and left the seat, and he and Lin Shan stood face to face. After a long time, they sat back in their chairs.

Li Gai glanced at Lin Shan quickly like a child who had done something wrong, and then lowered his eyes and whispered: "I didn't expect that this time, she was pregnant."

Lin Shan buckled the table and said in a reproachful tone: "Listening to your tone, it seems that children can be born casually?"

Li Gai rubbed his hand on his lap and said embarrassedly: "Don't say that about me, she wrote to me after the child was born, which really scared me." Just became the father of the child, how can you, a single person, understand......"

"And what do you mean now?" Lin Shan pretended to be annoyed, and said a little impatiently: "Since you think I can't understand your feelings, why do you bother to talk to me."

Li Gai hurriedly bowed to Lin Shan, and said, "Third brother, my good brother, although you haven't married a wife and had children, this matter really depends on your help." I said it quickly just now, don't be so annoyed so quickly."

"Okay, I'll tell you serious, you say what you want to do." When Lin Shan said this, he spread his hands and emphasized: "But I have to say a few words first." The woman gave birth to a child for you, and you were responsible, and there may have been some unavoidable reasons for that situation at that time, but the woman chose to give birth to the child and wrote to you, which shows that she also has affection for you. At this time, you have to marry her back openly, rather than wronging yourself, but also protecting her reputation outside. ”

"I know that, but I'm worried about something else." Li Gai gradually frowned, "I thought that before this expedition, I would take her to Kyoto, set up a house, and reunite the family. But the woman ...... Fangfang: She hasn't written to me for over a year. ”

……

Luo Fangfang, the woman Li Gai met twelve years ago when he was in the north with Wang Chi, who was still a border general.

At that time, Li Gai was hit by a cold arrow while chasing the invaders and almost died.

In such a cruel climate, people who have lost too much blood are prone to death, if not fatal, if not treated in a timely manner. After being injured, Li Gai, who chased the enemy to a barren land, fortunately met Luo Fangfang, who was lost in chasing the sheep that had been scattered from his house, and escaped death.

Li Gai encountered a wolf's den when he walked in the polar regions of northern Xinjiang with Fangfang, and he had superb martial arts, killed the wolf cubs, and drank wolf blood to replenish the body. Fang Fang, who lives in this bitter cold place, will have a basic healing method, she carefully tore the clothes and bandaged the wounds, and the two strange men and women in a desperate situation in order to survive, unconsciously trusted each other very much, fortunately, only to spend a few days in the northern polar region.

Maybe it was providence that brokered this fate, the cold climate brought the couple closer and closer to each other by chance, and maybe there was a little reason for the wolf blood, so that the two did not hold back the throbbing that suddenly started in their hearts.

That night's intercourse made Li Gai regret it greatly, and afterwards he was full of guilt for the woman, even if he had discovered that she was not a virgin.

After crying once, the woman didn't hate her much, but just sobbed and told her story of being a widow soon after her marriage, and repeatedly condemned herself for betraying her husband.

More than ten years ago, Li Gai's heart was much duller than now, and he felt ashamed, but he couldn't say many comforting words. Fortunately, the woman named Luo Fangfang was not a narrow-minded person, she could feel his guilt from Li Gai's words, and walked all the way back, gradually stopped crying and opened the conversation.

After some conversation, Li Gai knew in more detail that this woman's newlywed husband was a soldier of the 11th detachment of the border guard army.

However, Li Gai knew better that the sergeants under the Wuzi banner took attack as the main combat strategy, and the attrition was also the largest group among the three armies organized by words. The 11th detachment was in the pursuit of the Northern Rogues more than a month ago when they encountered a trap ambush, and the whole team was killed.

It was at that time that Luo Fangfang became a widow. After such an estimate, Li Gai only felt that his guilt and guilt were heavier...... (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly passes, and your support is my biggest motivation. )
