The door of the study was knocked gently, and then a crack was opened, and Gu Changwei, the head of Zhang Shouyue's personal soldiers who had been guarding outside, poked half his head in, and said: "County guard, General Gao, Mrs. Gao sent a girl to ask, whether the two adults are going to have a long talk all night today, Mrs. Gao is already very tired, if the two adults want to talk for a long time, Mrs. Gao will arrange for Mrs. Gao to stay in the house." ”

Hearing Gu Changwei's words, Gao Yuan suddenly realized that it was already past the second watch, "Time flies so fast, Lord County Guard, it's too much of a disturbance today, Jing'er is tired and tired along the way, and she can't hold it anymore, so don't leave it today!" ”

Zhang Shouyue smiled: "I wanted to keep you for a long talk, but you are newly married Yan'er, it is too unkind to do this, let's stop here today, do you have to stay in Liaoxi for a few days?" ”

"I have to stay for a few days, I have to go to Uncle Lu's house to visit and ask for peace, and then I have a good relationship with Uncle Bao and other old friends, I want to leave for Fufeng after three days, and for three days, Jing'er should also rest." Gao Yuan said with a smile.

Zhang Shouyue got up to send Gao Yuan out, and at the other end of the back house, a group of maids and women also hugged Ye Jing'er with lanterns and walked over, took Ye Jing'er's hand, and the couple bowed to Zhang Shouyue's old and old people, and then turned around and walked out of the door.

"It's really a talented woman, a natural pair!" Mrs. Zhang, who was already gray, looked at the two departing backs and sighed lightly. "When I saw them, I remembered you and me back then, and how many times we came and went in life and in death!"

Zhang Shouyue turned his head to look at the lady who was already goosebumps, and smiled: "It's still different." At least the lofty starting point is much higher than we were then. Perhaps, he will also achieve far more than me in the future. ”

Mrs. Zhang turned her head and said with a smile: "Are you envying him for finding a rich father-in-law, or are you lamenting that he didn't have the luck to find me at the beginning?" ”

Zhang Shou smiled as if he was lofty, and reached out to take his wife's hand. "I'm going to keep the promise in this life, and it's enough to have you."

A group of maids-in-law, including Gu Changwei and other personal soldiers, are not surprised by Zhang Shouyue's behavior, the old man and the county guard are very close to each other, and the relationship is good, far beyond the imagination of outsiders, Zhang Shouyue has been entrenched in one side for many years, and he is in a high position, but he has never accepted a concubine, not that he is afraid of his wife. It's about respecting Mrs., a high position like him is rare.

"Gao Yuan supported the second child and spared no effort to suppress the boss, but I have a headache." Holding Madame's hand, the two walked towards the back house. "Do you think this is for my sake of Liaoxi, or is it purely for his own sake?"

"I never care about the affairs of the men's family outside." The old lady smiled and shook her head, "It's just your son on the left and right." But since you mentioned it today. I can share my opinion. ”

"Oh?" Zhang Shouyue looked at his wife with some surprise, this lady never mixed with outside things.

"After all, it's all my son!" The old lady sighed, "Master, you separated the two brothers at the beginning. One article and one martial arts, it seems to be thoughtful, but now it seems that he has made the wrong move. But the matter has come to this point, there is no way back, it can only be like this. If you insist on choosing one of the two to inherit the master's country, I think it's still the second! ”

"You also support the dick? But I think the boss is more filial and respectful to you! Zhang Shouyue exclaimed.

"Filial piety and respect are not on the surface, but on the heart!" The old lady sighed: "You and I are both from the beginning, what kind of person has not seen in the past few decades?" The boss is actually very cold, and he seems to be respectful and filial, but he is just a face-saving effort, and the second child comes back less, but every festival or you and my birthday, the gifts sent are not expensive, but they are made by themselves with their own hearts or found or made by themselves. ”

"Because of this, do you think the second child is good?"

"No!" The old lady shook her head, "Master, now the two sons are fighting so fiercely, they are all the meat that fell from my body, I will be sad and sad if any one of them has an accident, if the second child succeeds your position, although the boss will lose power, but his life is worry-free, in turn, after the boss takes the position, the second child will inevitably be unable to save his life." ”

Zhang Shouyue paused, stood in place, and couldn't help but tighten his wife's hand, "How do you see it?" He asked in a whisper.

The old lady nodded.

The two stayed in place silently for a moment, and Zhang Shouyue sighed, "I understand what you mean." ”

It's already December, the weather is already cold, outside the gate of Zhang's mansion, Tie Xun and the others have already put on thick cotton jackets, covered with big cloaks, prepared carriages and horses, and are waiting for the two.

"Big brother, go sit in the car, don't ride a horse, it's very cold outside!" Holding Gao Yuan's hand, Ye Jing'er raised her head and looked at Gao Yuandao.

"Forget it, I'm used to it, you and Li'er sit inside, I'm a big man, what are you afraid of!"

"The carriage is very big, even if you sit for three or five people, you will not be cramped, you have drunk a lot of bars today, don't give frostbite to the wind." Ye Jing'er didn't let go, "I still want to talk to you about my son?" ”

Gao Yuan smiled, "In the future, I am afraid that I will not have a chance to speak?" ”

"I'm a little woman, but I only seize the day, and I don't have a long-term vision!" Ye Jing'er laughed softly, "When you are in Fufeng, you often say that you will talk to me, but in a year, how many times can you be busy, you are too busy to touch the ground, this is about to go back to Fufeng, once you go back, it is not easy to come and see you." Look at you now in the western part of Liaoning, you are not entangled in business, and wherever you go, you can't get away from it. ”

Gao Yuan's heart moved slightly, Ye Jing'er was telling the truth, that is, in the days of the wedding, he was not busy until the willow tips on the moon before rushing back to the new house, but Ye Jing'er at that time had already fallen asleep because she was too sleepy.

"Okay, I'll ride with you!" Gao Yuan smiled and boarded the carriage, this car was built by Ye Tiannan for his daughter, it was extremely luxurious, even if there were three or five people sitting in it, it still looked loose, and he couldn't help but sigh, "Father-in-law is really rich!" ”

Ye Jing'er giggled: "Are you thinking again, how many knives and guns can be used to build this carriage?" ”

Listening to Ye Jing'er's words, Gao Yuan couldn't help laughing.

People are in the rivers and lakes, and they can't help themselves. Gao Yuan suddenly remembered this sentence, he always thought that this was completely an excuse for some guys, but now when he looks at his own situation, he understands what kind of helplessness he is in.

"I'm sorry Jing'er, I will definitely find time to accompany you in the future." He stroked Ye Jing'er's short hair, and his heart couldn't help but feel sour.

Ye Jing'er lay on Gao Yuan's thighs, supporting her chin with both hands, but she laughed: "I don't blame you, I married someone like you, so I naturally have to bear all this." After Dad returned to Langya from Jicheng, he was still exhausted, thinking about how to turn the situation around, and his mother persuaded him not to give up, so he was also very good in Langya, but Dad said that people in Jianghu, they can't help themselves, sail against the current, and if they don't advance, they will retreat, and the enemy will not let you go because of your retreat and forbearance, on the contrary, retreat and forbearance can only put yourself in a more difficult situation. ”

"My father-in-law is right." Gao Yuan nodded. "When it comes to his position, there is really no room for retreat, those who advance live, and those who retreat die."

"In fact, sometimes I think, if I didn't have such a famous father, we would live together on the Fufeng South Mountain, plough the fields and weave cloth, carry water and water the garden, would we be able to live faster now? You won't be born and die for me many times, and you will almost not be able to save your life! Ye Jing'er stretched out her hand and stroked Gao Yuan's chest, she knew that many of the scars in it were left for her Ye Jing'er.

Gao Yuan smiled, "If that's the case, it won't necessarily be happy and peaceful, think about it, at that time, a little Huo Tianliang let me die and come back to life, at least now, a bastard like him can't come to you at all." ”

"But you have a more powerful enemy, in comparison, I really hope that your opponents are people like Huo Tianliang, at least you have the confidence to deal with them."

"But not necessarily, I can deal with him alone, if he invites a group of thugs, I will be invincible with two fists and four hands." Gao Yuan said with a smile: "Jing'er, don't think too much, in this life, it is not easy at any time, the grassroots have the troubles of the grassroots, the superiors have the pain of the superiors, they all have to fight, no one is easy." ”

Ye Jing'er nodded, "You know me!" Suddenly remembering something, she straightened up and sat up, "I remembered, we talked about Huo Tianliang just now, some time ago, I heard my father mention this person?" ”

Gao Yuan was stunned, "Isn't this guy dead?" ”

"No, he escaped from Liaoxi City back then, and now he has a big scar on his face, which is ugly, he fled to Jicheng and threw himself into his father's door."

Gao Yuan's face changed, "Father-in-law didn't kill him?" ”

"My father wanted to kill him, but at that time, Mr. Xun said that this Huo Tianliang still had the smuggling network left by his father in his hands, and he was a useful person, so he spared his life."

"Now he's doing things for his father-in-law?" Gao Yuan's face was hard to look at.

"Originally, yes, but after the fall of his father, this guy turned around and went to Ning Zecheng. Speaking of this, my father still blew his beard and glared, wishing that he could have killed him with a knife! ”

"Huo Tianliang!" Gao Yuan snorted coldly, "This bastard, one day he hit my hand, and he was cut in two, and he was a hundred!" ”

"Forget it, his family is ruined, and how much enmity we had at the beginning has been avenged. Now that he's alone, there's no point in killing him! Ye Jing'er persuaded her.

"Jing'er, you don't know that this kind of person is not enough to succeed, and there are more than enough failures, if he is still doing things for his father-in-law, for the sake of his father-in-law's face, I can't do it, but since he has betrayed his father-in-law with two swords, then this kind of person can't be kept." Gao Yuan shook his head. (To be continued......)
