"Chihu, don't talk about me, what about you, when are you going to show your heart to Chunchan? I see that Chunchan should also like you, you didn't have much contact before, she has been in Xueliuyuan, Yan'er is fortunately in Zhiqiu Courtyard, Yan'er and I can still have a lot of contact because of the major general. ”

Qinglong looked at Chihu, who was gradually frowning, and patted him on the shoulder again, "The generals all said to consider the matter of your two distant relatives' younger brothers, look at you, you can't always be like this, now that the young general is safe, everyone is happy, you are like this, it affects the general's mood, understand, Chihu?"

Chihu listened to Qinglong's words, and thought about it, Qinglong was indeed right, so he said happily again, "Okay, Qinglong, I know, I can't sweep the interest of the general, his wife and the young general, originally they were happy here, I can't look sad and sad, let them look unhappy, the general said to go back to the house to think about it, then I still hold on to hope." ”

Qinglong heard Chihu's words, and felt very comforted in his heart, it seems that Chihu really wanted to open, Chihu thought about it, and said to Qinglong, "Qinglong, you know that Chunchan has been staying in Xueliuyuan for all these years to be tortured, in fact, I suddenly feel that I am quite inactive, I saw her today, infected with wind and cold, and she has to do heavy work in cold water, I said I like her, but I have never done anything for her, I should have begged the third lady a long time ago, in case the third lady could admit her to Zhiqiu Courtyard, Even if she works in Zhiqiu Courtyard and sweeps the floor, it is better than her staying in Xueliu Courtyard and being scolded by the second lady. ”

"Chihu, don't think about it, it's not too late for you to say it now, the third lady is kind-hearted, if you go to ask the general and the third lady, I think the third lady will agree, but at the young general's full moon banquet, after Chunchan told us that someone was poisoned, we should take that opportunity to let the third lady admit Chunchan into the Zhiqiu Courtyard, but it's not too late, how old is Chunchan this year?"

Qinglong thought that he had missed such a good opportunity at that time, if he had brought up this matter at that time, the third lady would definitely have thought that Chunchan had saved her life, and agreed to let Chunchan enter the Zhiqiu Courtyard as a servant, if Chunchan didn't tell them, the third lady would definitely have an accident if she ate the beef balls that had been poisoned, it would be highly poisonous.

It is not a difficult thing for the third lady to ask the second lady for a servant, but it seems that the third lady does not know about this yet, and the general ordered them to keep it a secret and not to reveal half a point, so the third lady does not know.

"Chunchan, it seems to be the same age as Yan'er, at that time, the young general was born, she was also in the year of Jilu, this year's New Year, both of them are in the prime of life." Chihu thought about Chunchan, if she refused to accept the hairpin, then he would also beg the third lady for her, so that she could have a good life in the future.

"They are only in their prime, and the two of us are already in their prime, so now we have to hurry up and be good to them, now that the war is stable, we can also think about the love of our children, Chihu, okay, don't think about it, come into the house, it's cold outside, when the general returns to the house and settles the matter of the little bandits, you plead with the general and the third lady again, I think the third lady will definitely agree to your little request, okay, let's go in together."

Chihu nodded, and walked into the Yun family with Qinglong, the two of them sat on the table outside the courtyard, rested for a while, there was nothing to do just after lunch, Xiao Xiazi cooked and walked out of the kitchen, the three of them were there to chat about the short of the parents, the sun was warm on them, although Chihu was there to talk and laugh, but his eyes skimmed to the inner room from time to time, and the general was inside, and he didn't know how to think about it.

General Mo Lin listened to Chihu's words and walked into the house, he was also very entangled, Mo Lin saw Mo Xingyao chatting happily with Yun Jinxi there, so let's ask Mo Xingyao first, General Mo Lin sat on the edge of the bed of the Luohan bed, and asked Mo Xingyao, "Yao'er, my father asked you something, you have to answer truthfully, do you know?"

Seeing his father's serious expression, Mo Xingyao hurriedly nodded obediently, and Mo Lin asked Mo Xingyao, "Yao'er, aren't there four bandits who kidnapped you, in addition to the two bandits you were bitten by a cobra in the grove, there are also two bandits, do you have an impression?"

"Oh, it's those two little bandits, they don't look very old, those two little bandits just followed me all the way, and they didn't say anything, and then when the bald bandit asked the two of them to go down the mountain to deliver a letter, they never came back, and I haven't seen them again, but that night on the way to the small cave, when I couldn't walk, it was still the little bandit who carried me, and when the two bandit leaders went to the field for convenience, I begged the two of them to let me go, and I heard him and another little bandit seem to say that they wanted to let me go, But another bandit said that if I was released, then they would be killed by the bandit leader, and then I heard them say that they wanted to escape, I guess they had already run away, anyway, I haven't seen the two of them in the back. ”

Mo Xingyao tried to remember the two little bandits, when the bald bandit and Du Li bandit went to the field to make it convenient, he asked the two little bandits for help, and asked the two of them to release him, saying that they would give them a lot of silver, but in the end, when they were hesitating, Du Ruo and Du Li came over from the field, and this matter could only be done.

"Did the two of them beat you, scold you, and torture you?" Mo Xingyao heard his father ask him this, and quickly shook his head, Mo Lin heard Mo Xingyao's words, and he already knew it in his heart, so he said, "Okay, Yao'er, you and Yun Jinxi chat, don't think about it, the Red Tiger Leader has already arrested all four of them, and now they are all locked up, and they will be interrogated and punished when their father returns to the General's Mansion to punish them, do you say it's okay!" ”

"Okay, Father, whoever tells them to scare the children, then everyone will hit 20 boards, and they will not be able to get out of bed for several days in pain, so let's do it, Father." Mo Xingyao opened his eyes wide, covered his mouth with his small hands, and smiled secretly, in his imagination, the twenty boards were already the most severe punishment.

"Okay, my father will listen to you." General Mo Lin couldn't help but sigh that Mo Xingyao was kind-hearted, he had also seen General Li Tong's two grandchildren, and heard General Li Tong's two grandsons killing people with their mouths full of murder, but Yao'er had never said such a thing as killing, Yao'er was really a bodhisattva-like heart, he heard Yao'er say this, and he knew it in his heart.

"Brother Yao, what is the twenty boards, do you want to beat the palms?" Yun Jinxi asked innocently, Mo Xingyao laughed, and said, "Sister Silly Xi, isn't it, the twenty big boards are beating their butts, take off their clothes, expose their butts, and then beat them with that board, I saw it once in Xueliuyuan, it hurts to look at it, and my buttocks are bleeding, and I have been scared for several days, and I can't eat." ”

"Yao'er, when did you go to Xueliuyuan and saw someone hit the board, when did it happen, Wanqiu?" General Mo Lin was shocked when he heard Mo Xingyao say this, no wonder Mo Xingyao knew about playing the board, he thought that he had never mentioned the matter of playing the board with Mo Xingyao, it turned out that Yao'er was still scared.

"General, it's a long time ago, I heard that it was a slave who angered Mrs. Liu, so Mrs. Liu hit the slave board, I don't know exactly what happened, but I just heard the servants talk about it, when the slave was keeping vigil outside the courtyard, he was infected with a cold and coughed violently and noisy Mrs. Liu, and when he was serving Mrs. Liu the next day, he accidentally coughed in front of Mrs. Liu, and then Mrs. Liu also contracted the wind cold, and Mrs. Liu decided that it was the slave who infected her, so she was angry and punished the slave, Later, I also heard the servants say that it was the second lady's own clothes that were less, so she contracted the cold, and I heard that the slave was beaten for several days and couldn't get out of bed. ”

Mo Xingyao was still young at that time, five years old, like to run around, I don't know how to run to the Snow Willow Courtyard, just saw the slave was beaten on the board, she looked for it, took a look, and quickly covered Mo Xingyao's eyes, and then led Mo Xingyao back to Zhiqiu Courtyard, Mo Xingyao came to his senses for several days, and was indeed scared.

"Then why didn't I hear you talk about it, I never knew about it." General Mo Lin frowned, this Liu Yiyi, he has already explained in the General's Mansion, the servants and servants have made mistakes, try not to punish physically, it is okay to deduct the monthly money, it is really an unforgivable sin, and it is necessary to be dismissed from the mansion, why bother to punish so much.

Liu Yiyi is really too disagreeable, the young general seemed to be a little restrained when he saw her at the full moon banquet, but it was an illusion, the country is easy to change, the nature is difficult to change, and the slaves and maids who are on errands under her must be miserable.

"General, you have been busy with the affairs of the imperial court during that time, wasn't the Western Regions in a very stiff situation with the imperial court at that time? You have enough troubles, how can I tell you these troubles again, but I heard that the beaten slave is very miserable, it seems that his legs are broken and lame, the second lady also kicked him out of the general's mansion, the slave's family came to the general's mansion once, but was also scolded by the second lady, I heard that they are all honest families, the slave is still young, only eighteen years old, and he is disabled, but it's a pity that ......"

Ye Wanqiu looked at General Mo Lin, whose face was getting more and more gloomy, and hurriedly stopped her mouth, originally these words should not be said by her, it is inevitable that there will be a feeling of sowing discord, but Mrs. Liu has definitely done some things excessively, and she has also punished the servants and maids excessively.

Now that Yao'er accidentally mentioned this matter, she was also quick to speak, and she said all these things, General Mo Lin heard Ye Wanqiu's words, and fell into deep thought, this time back to the general's mansion, I have to put it in order.

"Brother Yao, that spanking hurts, when I was a child, I once secretly ran out, my aunt was very angry, saying that there were carriages on the road outside, and there were bad people, she slapped my ass in a fit of anger, but it hurt, you also said that you beat me with a board, and it bleeds, it's terrible, you can't walk, you can only lie down all the time."

Yun Jinxi innocently said to Mo Xingyao, Mo Xingyao felt that what Yun Jinxi said was right, so he turned his head and said to his father again, "Or, father, those four bandits, you can beat ten boards by yourself, just hit it gently, don't bleed, otherwise they won't be able to walk, just punish them a little, let them remember a little longer." ”

General Mo Lin listened to Mo Xingyao's words and nodded with satisfaction, his son is naturally kind-hearted, but as a major general, he doesn't know whether this kind heart is good or bad, on the battlefield, if he has such a kind heart, how can he pick up the sword and kill the enemy.

Mo Lin said to Mo Xingyao, "Yao'er, you and Yun Jinxi will talk first, and I will go to the back room with your aunt to talk." Mo Xingyao nodded, General Mo Lin got up, and Ye Wanqiu also got up, followed General Mo Lin, and came to the back room separated by a cloth curtain.

"Wanqiu, there is one thing I don't know what to do, you can help me come up with an idea, that is, just now Chihu told me that there are two little bandits who are the two younger brothers of his distant relatives, I saw that he had a sad face all day today, thinking that something must be wrong, and when he just went out, he confessed to me." Mo Lin said to Ye Xuanqiu.
