Chapter 383: Them
In the past, when An Xiabai was by his side, let alone being tempted by other women, even if he looked at others more, Lu Li was not necessarily willing, which could be seen from his attitude towards the beauties sent by the officials that day, but now it was different, when Lu Shuer was by his side, he suddenly felt as if he was moved.
An Xiabai and Lu Shu'er are weak and strong, men like women who are obedient to them most of the time, and Lu Li is no exception.
Lu Shu'er always came to talk to him when he was free, sometimes he talked about what he had seen and heard, sometimes he said that it was interesting in the barracks, and what surprised Lu Li even more was that whenever the soldiers in the army talked about Lu Shu'er, they always smiled at him, saying that the general was so blessed.
Lu Li asked, "Where am I blessed?" ”
"Isn't it a blessing to have a resourceful wife like Madame, and an understanding and gentle woman like Miss Lu by your side?"
Lu Li was quite surprised, originally he thought that the hearts of the soldiers were on An Xiabai's side, and they would not accept Lu Shu'er easily.
It's like a sunny day.
"Don't you think it's awkward?"
The soldier glanced at Lu Li, as if he was puzzled, and asked Lu Li: "Ordinary people have a wife and concubine, is there anything wrong with you marrying two women, general?" ”
Lu Li was stunned and was silent for a long time.
Whether this matter is right or not, I'm afraid I'll have to wait for An Xiabai to come back.
Thinking of An Xiabai, Lu Li couldn't help but be a little worried, where did his wife go, why did she never send a letter back, could it be that there was an accident on the road, or some trouble on the road? No, it's just that the capital is too prosperous and unwilling to come back?
All kinds of doubts lingered in Lu Li's heart, making his face a little gloomy.
When Lu Shu'er entered the door with chicken soup, he saw his expression, and couldn't help but smile gently, and gently stroked the Sichuan character between his eyebrows with his hand: "General, don't frown, it's better to say what is on your mind, and always stuffing it in your heart may not be able to solve the problem." ”
"I'm ...... I wonder when Madame will come back, she hasn't sent a letter to Nanhuaicheng for a long time, and I'm worried that something happened to her. ”
Lu Li said while looking at the expression on Lu Shu'er's face, but what surprised him was that Lu Shu'er didn't seem to have any mood swings at all, and even persuaded him with a smile: "Mrs. Lu Jiren has her own natural appearance, plus didn't she learn martial arts before leaving, there will definitely be no accidents along the way, the general just rest assured." As for writing letters, it may be that the scenery outside is too beautiful, so it is possible that Mrs. Lu forgot about it. ”
Lu Li nodded with a complicated expression.
On the same day, he took the army to inspect the surrounding areas of Nanhuai City, and was not in the barracks.
Coincidentally, as soon as he left with his front foot, An Xiabai entered the gate of Nanhuai City.
Ruqing was stunned for a long time when she saw An Xiabai, only to realize that the person she had missed for a long time had finally returned, and rushed forward with a smile and hugged the person: "Xia Bai, you can be regarded as back, you don't know how much we miss you in the days you left!" ”
At that time, Qin Shuang'er was also beside her, and when she saw An Xiabai, she was happy and sad at the same time.
The happy thing is that the person is finally back, and the sad thing is that during the time she left, there have been too many changes in the barracks, such as Lu Li, such as Lu Shu'er, Qin Shuang'er was afraid that she would not be able to bear it, so when An Xiabai went to find Lu Li, she quietly took Ruqing's hand: "Ruqing, should we talk to Sister Xia Bai about that incident?" ”
"Which one?" Ruqing looked at her blankly, and as soon as the two looked at each other, they knew each other's thoughts.
Ruqing also panicked: "I don't know either...... Oops, before I had time to investigate clearly, Xia Bai came back! ”
"Wouldn't it be good for me to come back early?" An Xiabai went and returned, standing at the side of the tent and looking at them with a smile, at this time, she didn't know how troublesome things were waiting for her behind.
"No, it's not bad, it's too sudden, we're a little surprised! That's it! ”
An Xia Bai looked at them inexplicably: "Suddenly? Didn't you receive my letter in advance? ”
When An Xiabai was on the way, he deliberately repaired the book and returned to Nanhuai City to Lu Li, they should have received the letter a few days earlier, why did they say that they didn't receive it?
It's weird.
There is also Lu Li, knowing that she will come back today, but she still has to lead the troops out on patrol, it seems that when she left, Lu Li didn't miss herself at all, alas, she hurried all the way and wanted to return to Nanhuai City as soon as possible, but people didn't even miss it. Thinking of this, An Xiabai felt a little irritable in his heart.
"General, he should have received it, but he didn't tell us......." Ruqing was also strange in her heart, she was afraid that she would say the wrong thing, so she was a little cautious when she spoke.
Because An Xiabai is not in a good mood now, she didn't notice her abnormality.
"Then I'll ask him why he didn't come to greet him."
"Xia Bai, I have something I want to tell you......." Ruqing gritted her teeth, thinking that a long pain is better than a short pain, rather than letting An Xiabai see it herself, it is better to talk about it first, so that she can be mentally prepared. Lu Li, that bastard, took advantage of Xia Bai's absence to hook up with Lu Shuer's slut, and when he received the letter, he probably didn't take it to heart, alas, when we meet later, I don't know how much Xia Bai will be wronged!
Ruqing felt a little heartache.
She was about to open her mouth to complain about what Lu Li had done during this period of time, when she heard a familiar voice outside.
"Madame!"
It's Lu Li who is back.
The separation of more than two months made An Xiabai miss this person with a lot of thoughts, but when she remembered that Lu Li obviously received the letter from her, but did not greet her, she felt a little uncomfortable. An Xiabai opened the curtain, and when he saw Lu Li hurriedly walking outside, he was a little upset, waved his hand and said, "Isn't the husband going to take someone to inspect the vicinity of Nanhuai City, why is he coming back now?" ”
Lu Li heard that something was wrong with her words, and immediately froze in place: "Madam, I ......"
"Husband, let's get busy first." After that, An Xiabai directly pulled down the curtain.
The two people who once missed each other were separated by a thin curtain.
Lu Li stood stunned and couldn't help sighing: "Madam, I didn't know that you were coming back today, if you knew, I would give full authority to other people about patrolling the city." Madame, I'll come back to you when I'm done with my work. ”
As soon as the words fell, the person had already raised his feet and left, leaving An Xia Bai behind the curtain with a surprised face.
Don't know to come back today? But she had already written the return date on the letterhead.
Ruqing saw that her expression was wrong, so she stepped forward and asked cautiously, "Xia Bai, what's wrong with you?" ”
"I've obviously sent a letter to the barracks, but Mr. Fu said that he hadn't received it, and that something didn't seem quite right, so come with me to the messenger."
This must be Lu Shuer's ghost!
Ruqing already had a calculation in her heart, but An Xiabai obviously didn't know the current situation in Nanhuai City, so she didn't dare to say it, after handing over the matter at hand to Qin Shuang'er, the two of them hurried to the messenger.
To their surprise, the Courier disappeared inexplicably, and for several days.
An Xia Bai pinched her fingers to count the days, and found that the day of the messenger's disappearance happened to be the day her letter arrived.
It's strange, there has been no war these days, how can a big living person say no?
An Xiabai pulled Ruqing to ask one by one, saying that she had never seen the messenger, and after asking for a long time, she learned the relevant news from a soldier who was more familiar with the messenger.
Before the messenger disappeared, Lu Shu'er came to look for her.
An Xiabai raised his eyebrows: "Go and arrest Lu Shu'er for me." ”
Several soldiers looked at each other, not knowing what to do, as soon as the lady came back, she was going to arrest Miss Lu, was it because of Miss Lu and the general?
In case Madame is unwilling to let Miss Lu enter the door of the Lu family, what will she do in the future?
After An Xiabai saw the order to go down, the few soldiers in front of him did not move for a long time, and he felt very strange in his heart: "Why don't you go yet, can't I already call you?" ”
"No, no, my subordinates will go." Several soldiers were smeared with oil on the soles of their feet, and they ran away without a trace of smoke.
Madame said that she wanted to arrest it, so let's arrest it, and by the way, go and inform the general! Alas, I don't know if the general can cope with such a troublesome thing as a fire in the backyard.
An Xiabai looked at Ruqing with confusion in her heart, but unexpectedly found that Ruqing was looking at herself with a very special gaze, which made An Xiabai feel very uncomfortable, and when she came back today, she had seen this kind of gaze more than once: "What happened in the barracks, why are you all looking at me with such eyes?" ”
"Xia Bai, let me tell you something, don't be angry......."
"You say, I'm not angry." An Xiabai thinks that he has done a good job of controlling his emotions.
But before Ruqing could speak again, the soldiers had already escorted Lu Shu'er to the camp tent.
An Xiabai sat upright in his position, looked at Lu Shu'er kneeling on the ground with a downward gaze, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Does the messenger's disappearance have anything to do with you?" ”
Lu Shu'er sighed in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face: "What messenger, I don't know, I've been busy in the military doctor's tent these days, rarely go out, and no one has ever written to me, I have never seen a messenger." ”
"But someone said you came looking for the Courier before he disappeared."
What happened, in fact, Lu Shu'er was clear in her heart, but she just pretended not to know: "Madam, you have to believe me, I really don't know what messenger is, I have never met him!" ”
An Xiabai still wanted to ask, but before the words could be spoken, Lu Li had already rushed into the camp.
Originally, Lu Li was looking for An Xiabai's whereabouts everywhere, wanting to explain to her what had happened during this time, but when he heard that An Xiabai had taken Lu Shu'er, he hurried over.
"General, save me, I'm innocent!" Lu Shu'er begged for help with red eyes.
"I know, don't be afraid." Lu Li stiffened, took a step forward under An Xiabai's confused gaze, and stood beside Lu Shu'er, "Madam, all this is my fault, if you are angry in your heart, support me, don't scare Shu'er." ”
