Volume 1 The Return of the General Chapter 5 Ruyi Langjun
Xiao Qiao woke up in the morning, and his buttocks were still aching.
That time she fell from the eaves, and I don't know why the man chased after her, but fortunately she was clever, no, fortunately she ran fast, and finally this battle ended with her being kicked.
She went to the bronze mirror to take a photo, and the forehead that was knocked by the door that day was already healed, but her back still hurt, so she supported her waist and prepared to rummage through the cabinet to look for bone-setting medicine, and found that the cabinet was full of needlework, jewelry, etc., and then remembered that this was in her "wife" Ah Shuang's room.
Ah Shuang was originally the maid of the Xiao family, but after the Xiao family experienced the chaos, she married Xiao Qiao and became the current wife of the general's mansion. Outsiders only know that Ah Shuang is a sparrow flying on the branch and becoming a phoenix, but in fact, she is just using the happiness of her life to keep a secret of her benefactor.
The secret is that the current Xiao Qiao is not the real Xiao Qiao.
That year, Mrs. Xiao Yu gave birth and gave birth to a pair of twin dragons and phoenixes, but the world only knows that the daughter died on the day of delivery, and there is only one only son in the general's house, the young master Xiao Qiao.
And the current Xiao Qiao is the "deceased" daughter who has been hiding in the eyes of the world since she was born: Xiao Yan. She has been raised in the Secret Courtyard of the General's Mansion since she was a child, but why do you have to ask? She didn't know. I only know that the high wall trapped her for fifteen years.
From childhood to adulthood, her family treated her very well, and for her, the fifteen years were still very beautiful, her father and mother loved her, and her twin brothers were a pair of happy enemies.
When she was young, Xiao Yan didn't know much about the world, she only knew that her family was a general, and the family motto was a "righteousness" word.
But such a Xiao family, who has preached the word "righteousness" for generations and guarded the Daqi frontier for several years, was killed by traitors in the chaos five years ago......
Later people only knew that after that chaos, Xiao Qiao became a brave and warlike general, and almost with the strength of an army, he helped the current emperor to defend the current Northern Qi Dynasty.
The funny thing is that the world is just Xiao Jiaerlang calling Xiao Qiao, but they don't know that this is a name and two lives.
It was also after that turmoil that there were only two words left in Xiao Qiao's world: repayment and revenge.
At this time, Lin Shuangyi happened to come in, and saw Xiao Qiao leaning on the cabinet alone in a daze, and called softly: "General." ”
Xiao Qiao saw Lin Shuangyi holding the food box, and the emotions of the past were swept away, and at this time, his eyes were full of joy, and he pulled Lin Shuangyi to sit down, and asked her earnestly: "Ah Shuang, when I was not at home, someone bullied you?" ”
Lin Shuangyi just smiled indifferently: "Thanks to the general's blessing, Ah Shuang is very good." ”
Xiao Qiao carefully observed Lin Shuangyi, it was indeed not like she was stupid when she was a child, she was really a gentle and virtuous housewife, but thinking of this, Xiao Qiao was a little ashamed, although Ah Shuang was a maid, she could marry a serious family, live with the person she liked, and her children surrounded her knees.
When Xiao Qiao was a child, he saw that Ah Niang liked Ah Shuang very much, and thought that Ah Shuang would be his sister-in-law in the future, and often used this as an excuse to tease his brother when he was a child. Now, Ah Shuang is really married to "Xiao Qiao", but is she really happy?
Wouldn't you be too selfish?
Lin Shuangyi looked at Xiao Qiao's increasingly dark face, probably guessed what she was thinking, opened the food box, took out the osmanthus cake inside, and handed it to Xiao Qiao.
"In the past few years, the generals have continued to win wars, and there are more and more powerful people who come to the door, they respect you, and naturally they respect Ah Shuang." Lin Shuangyi said lightly, "The year before last, someone from the family came to look for me...... Let me recognize my ancestors, and now I have a surname and a first name. ”
Xiao Qiao raised his eyes and looked at her happily when he heard the voice, when he was a child, he only knew that Ah Shuang was picked up by Ah Niang, and now Ah Shuang recognized his ancestor, which was naturally a happy event, and he hurriedly asked: "Oh, this is a happy event, what is the name?" How are you doing at home? Do you want me to accompany you back to save your relatives? ”
"Called Shuangyi, the surname of the family is Lin, and the Gusu businessman. General, as far as Ah Shuang is concerned, Ah Shuang has been a member of the general's mansion since he was a child, and this is the pro. ”
Xiao Qiao realized why he felt that Lin Shuangyi's temperament had changed a lot, his eyes were ringed, and he found many books in Lin Shuangyi's room, no wonder he now spoke with the atmosphere of a young lady of the family.
"Lin Shuangyi." Xiao Qiao read softly, "Very good, very good." But Ashuang ...... If you have a sweetheart, you must tell me that I must divorce you...... No, I didn't mean that, I mean, I, Xiao Qiao, will definitely let you marry your wishful husband. ”
Lin Shuangyi looked at her sincerely, but she was a little childish, and said with a smile: "Let's think about yourself, don't you know, you rode a high-headed horse in the city yesterday, and now this matchmaker's worship post is going to fill the hall, I am here to talk to you about it!" ”
Xiao Qiao just stuffed a whole piece of osmanthus cake into her mouth, and was about to get back to her breath, but she didn't expect to be choked directly, Lin Shuangyi hurriedly brought her a pot of tea, and she was smooth.
"Haven't I all married the housewife? And rush to make the small one? Xiao Qiao coughed violently, looking incredulous.
But she did underestimate her damn charm, yesterday the royal capital Luoning City caused quite a stir, and today the matchmaker sent a greeting to the door, what an official lady, a young lady of the family.
"It seems that ......," Xiao Qiao coughed, "General Ben has to take some practical actions to stifle their dissent towards General Ben." ”
And what Lin Shuangyi didn't expect was that Xiao Qiao's actual action to stifle the dream of a girl in the royal capital was-
Visit the Green House.
Since the last time she suffered a loss, Xiao Qiao finally knew that the kiln was the Qinglou, she went today, dressed neatly, the jade pendant engraved with the word "Xiao", I wish others didn't know that she Xiao Xiao General Xiao went to visit the kiln today.
The old bustard of the Xianghulou recognized her at a glance as the little brother in cloth that day, and soon found Xiao Qiao a slender girl.
"Look, last time I saw that this boy was extraordinary, blessed, it turned out to be the general of Zhenguo, mother, I know people, I said that no one dares to say the second!" The old bustard shook his fan and danced with his eyebrows, and said to the girl next to him with saliva.
"Mom, last time you laughed at others for being thieves with dirty money!" The girls laughed and trembled, but their eyes kept glancing at the slender room.
Seeing Xiao Qiao's appearance today, Xian Xian was shocked for a long time, and found her the melon seeds she ate last time, and took out the Tieguanyin that she had treasured for a long time in the cabinet to brew for her, thinking about pleasing her.
Xiao Qiao is a self-acquaintance, and quickly found a place to sit down, chatted with Xian Xian for some homely things, and suddenly smelled a familiar smell in the air, so he asked, "What kind of fragrance is this girl?" ”
"It's bergamot." Xian Xian looked at Xiao Qiao in surprise, her fragrance was very light, although she occasionally came to Langzhong, but no one ever found out.
"Bergamot? Is the girl feeling unwell? Xiao Qiao knocked the melon seeds and said unintentionally.
Xiao Qiao's mother Xiao Yu is good at medical theory, and has taken Xiao Qiao to study medicine since she was a child, although Xiao Qiao's medical theory is not as good as Mrs. Xiao Yu, but it is not as good as ordinary people. And today I happened to smell this fragrance, so I asked casually.
"This bergamot is designed to break stagnation of qi, and those who have yin deficiency and fire and no symptoms of qi stagnation should take it with caution." Xiao Qiao saw her puzzled, presumably she didn't know that this incense was actually a medicine, which could regulate qi into the liver, but long-term use by asymptomatic people was not a good thing.
Xian Xian lowered her eyebrows and thought about it carefully, this incense was given to her by the second sister in the building...... The second sister doesn't seem to like her very much on weekdays, and sometimes she will squeeze her, but she is simple-minded, thinking that this incense was given to her by the second sister when she misses her, and she lights it very lightly every day according to the second sister's advice...... But.
"The second sister actually wants to harm me......"
Xian Xian suddenly went to extinguish the incense and wiped away her tears, Xiao Qiao was also at a loss, and coaxed her in a soft voice for a while: "Miss Xian Xian, I just said this, maybe your second sister doesn't know, and she has no intention of harming you, but you can just guard against it in the future, okay?" ”
"Childe, Xian Xian's family road fell in the early years and became red dust, Xian Xian really doesn't know what she did wrong, she has accumulated virtue and done good deeds all year round, or she ends up like this, this is probably fate...... Seeing that the son was considerate, Xian Xian was grateful in her heart. ”
Xiao Qiao saw that she looked like a pear blossom with rain, and she felt a little unbearable. I am also a person who has encountered changes in my family, and I have some empathy for a while. What kind of world is this? Could it be that this is the case, people are deceived by others? Is this called fate? Most of the time fate is ridiculous, but what can we do? Sinking is useless, she tried.
After Xiao Qiao left that day, Xian Xian looked at Xiao Qiao's back for a long time.
"Childe, are you also fate?"
A girl's emotion is always easy, because she smiles and smiles, because of a word of care, but often the better the first encounter with affection, the more difficult it is to go down this road.
-
After slowly getting acquainted with Xian Xian, Xiao Qiao often came to send some things to Xian Xian, sometimes rouge gouache, sometimes dim sum to eat.
But what she didn't know was that Xian Xian was like a spring girl these days, holding a shallow fantasy of love, thinking about her and thinking of her.
Obviously, the more obvious she became, the more jealous she became.
"Yo, Xian Xian, what about Ruyi Langjun who is waiting for you again?" The voice was coquettish, but anyone could hear the sarcasm in it.
"Second sister." Xian Xian said softly, looking at the woman with heavy makeup in front of her, she was a little scared in her heart.
"Did your general say when he would ransom you and go back to marry you? Aono, no, no......" The woman patted her mouth and said, "How can you be a wife, you should be a concubine in the sky, right?" Ah, this dusty woman is afraid that she will not be treated well in this world, right? ”
Seeing that she was trying to find faults, Xian Xian replied: "My sister and I are the same kind of people, why does my sister say that she is so cheap?" ”
Only Xian Xian herself knows how much courage she wasted when she said such a sentence since she was a child, but she didn't look down on this worldly place in her bones, but now she has the favor of the general of Zhenguo, but she also wants to be tougher in the future.
Sure enough, a slap was raised high, and at the moment when it was thrown into her face, someone grabbed it fiercely.
"Xu Yingying, the ugliness of life is the most poisonous, and if you can't attract customers, you can still cheapen others, see if I will kick you out when the time comes!" The old bustard slapped the woman with his backhand and shouted at the top of his voice.
There is an old saying in the market that three women in this world are a play, but such a good show starts with a slap, and the wind and rain set off are not spectacular......
