A few days ago, Lu Li got a news that the imperial court had started to recruit troops because of border matters, and he was a little moved.

As a son, who doesn't want to put on the armor and charge into battle to kill the enemy for the country, not to mention that Lu Li now has other thoughts in his heart, and the impulse becomes more and more enthusiastic, he wants to go, but after looking at An Xiabai's smiling gaze and soft hand, the thoughts in his heart can't help but begin to waver.

If he really goes to the battlefield, not only is life and death unpredictable, but he may not be able to get meritorious service, and the most important thing is that he doesn't know when he will come back.

An Xiabai is still so young, beautiful and capable, what if she doesn't want to wait if she goes for a long time?

In the process of getting along bit by bit, he found that his heart had left a place for An Xiabai, but what about her?

Just as they walked to the door of the restaurant and were about to enter the door, Lu Li took An Xiabai's hand and said in a low voice: "I find that I can't do without you more and more, Madame." ”

In front of the public, what's going on with him, isn't he stimulated by something?

An Xiabai frowned, raised her eyes and looked around, just in time to see Shen Ya, who was unwilling to walk slowly, and laughed and said, "Husband, are you worried about me again?" ”

"How can I not worry, my wife is getting better and better, many people covet it, and sometimes I can't cope with them, and my husband will be unable to do it." Lu Li lowered his face, gently pinched An Xiabai's cheek, let her eyes meet his own, and asked word by word, "Madam, do you have me in your heart?" ”

Today's vinegar jar seems to have not only turned over, but also broken, and the sour taste An Xiabai could clearly perceive it, and nodded with a smile: "I only have my husband in my heart, whether now or in the future." Husband, can you let me in now, I will be in front of the public, and I will have a great impact on the city. ”

Lu Li got a satisfactory answer, and almost didn't smile a flower on his face: "Madam, you must remember what you said to me today, and you must not forget it." By the way, there's one more thing I want to tell you. ”

At this time, Shen Ya had already walked to the door of the restaurant and walked to their side, An Xiabai glanced at him, a little embarrassed: "If we have something to say, let's go back and talk about it, husband, you invite Lord Shen into the door first, and I'll go to the kitchen to see if there is anything that can help." ”

After that, she turned around and walked towards the restaurant, leaving behind Lu Li, who was not very good-looking, and Shen Ya, who was smiling.

"Lord Shen." Lu Li said sideways.

"You seem to have something on your mind?" Shen Ya is such a sharp-eyed character, and he can see at a glance that something is wrong with Lu Li.

Lu Li was stunned for a moment, and then hesitated for a moment before saying, "There is indeed something in my heart, Lord Shen, let's talk about it when we enter the door." ”

They entered the door of the box one after the other, and before Lu Li could sit down firmly, he got straight to the point and said: "Lord Shen is serving in the yamen, so he must have seen the official document of the conscription, right?" ”

Shen Ya didn't expect him to talk about it, and he was stunned, but he quickly reacted: "You want to join the army?" Got it thought about? ”

Lu Li said with a complicated expression, he was still hesitating: "I was at the door just now to ask what Mrs. meant, but Lord Shen came halfway, so I didn't continue the topic." ”

"How could you have such a thought?" There was tea in the box, but Shen Ya knew that Lu Li would definitely not be willing to serve tea and pour water for himself, so he poured himself a cup of tea, and by the way, he also poured a cup for Lu Li, "In the military, you must be cautious and cautious, after all, you still have a wife at home, I don't know if you can come back, how many years will it take to come back, if something happens, she has no way to ask for help, but what should I do?" ”

"I didn't make a decision directly because I was worried about her." Lu Li unceremoniously picked up the hot tea, took a sip and swallowed his throat, only feeling bitter, "She is still so young, if I don't want to wait after I go, I can't blame her." ”

But Lu Li felt that his heart was painful, and when he thought that An Xiabai might lean into another person's arms and meekly shout the word husband, his heart hurt like a knife.

Shen Ya heard the other meaning of his words: "What do you mean, you have to go to this army?" ”

Lu Li nodded slowly, but firmly, indicating that he would never miss this opportunity.

Shen Ya couldn't understand what he was thinking, joining the army, either his son was full of enthusiasm, or his family was poor, and he wanted to go to the battlefield to gamble, and the official came back on the hour to shade his family, but Lu Li didn't have similar concerns at all.

The family is good, the husband and wife are harmonious, why do you have to fight with your life, he really can't understand: "Can you tell me the reason?" ”

"I want to protect her." Lu Li smiled and said, "Just like what the adults once said, you and Lord Mo can't help us for a lifetime after all, and the future days will have to be fought by our husband and wife, so I want to go to the battlefield and fight hard, at least I want to come back with an official and a half-job, so that I can protect her." ”

I didn't expect Lu Li, who is usually unsmiling and cold, to be so stubborn after being emotional.

Shen Ya was moved: "Ambition is actually a good thing." ”

"Lord Shen, I want to ask you for one thing." Lu Li knelt down on one knee in front of Shen Ya, and the latter was flattered by this kind of gift, "If you have something to say, it's just." ”

"If I do join the army, there is only one lady in the family, although her plans are always meticulous, but no one can guarantee that nothing will go wrong, so I want to ask your lord to take care of it more, when I am in the army." He paused, and pleaded in a tone, "Lord Shen is an upright person, my family is not here at this time, the only person who can be entrusted is you, and I hope you can help me." ”

Shen Ya hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded: "This official will do my best." ”

The two of them reached an agreement on An Xiabai's affairs in the box, but no one knew about it at the time, and she even wanted to complain that Lu Li had been gone for so long, and she didn't even come down to help.

"Mrs. Lu, have you noticed that Sheng Gongzi's situation doesn't seem to be right recently." A cook lady got free time, slowly walked to An Xiabai's side, smiled and wanted to be close, "She has always been depressed recently, and she is like two people like usual, and she always said that it was okay after asking several times, do you think she is sick?" ”

Recently, during this time, An Xiabai had to be busy with things in the restaurant, but also to help the Liu family's mother and daughter, so busy that she couldn't even care about her husband, let alone Ruqing?

She raised her eyebrows, puzzled, "What do you mean by that?" ”

"That's it, that's it," the cook wanted to say something, but out of the corner of her eye, she happened to see Ruqing passing by the door, and immediately silenced herself and didn't dare to speak.

But An Xiabai didn't need her answer anymore, as soon as she saw Ruqing, she knew that Ruqing was wrong, Ruqing who usually always laughed and played with Mo Simin, Ruqing who was usually heartless, now not only was she thin, but even her face was a lot haggard, and when An Xiabai followed her to the platform, she didn't even notice it.

"Have you been hiding something from me lately?"

An Xiabai's voice startled Ruqing, and it took a long time for her to recover her strength, and she said with a stiff expression: "I'm fine." ”

An Xiabai stood beside her, and sneered when she heard the words: "What do you usually look like, others don't know, can I still not understand, recently Simin said that he was sick and couldn't come, and you are always depressed, don't quarrel with Simin, right?" ”

The more I thought about it, the more I felt that there was such a possibility, after all, Ruqing usually likes to tease Mo Simin, and it is hard to guarantee that she will not make too many jokes, which will make Mo Simin annoyed!

"If the two of you quarrel, it's better to talk about it sooner." She patted Ruqing's shoulder lightly and said with a smile, "It's a good sister, the two of you are friends of life and death, so you just bow your head and admit your mistake." ”

Ruqing said with a wry smile: "I really didn't quarrel with Mo Simin, the reason why we didn't see each other is because——"

Speaking of this, she suddenly lost her voice, and An Xiabai was puzzled, so she asked her, "Because of what?" ”

Ruqing didn't answer, just sighed and shook her head: "Anyway, we didn't quarrel, but there are contradictions, and the main problem is on my side." ”

She was reluctant to say the matter clearly, and An Xiabai didn't force her to ask, but smiled and said, "Since you know that the problem is yours, why don't you go to her earlier?" ”

"I'll go." Ruqing said to leave, she left the restaurant and went straight to Mo's house, thinking that she not only had to explain the matter to Mo Simin clearly, but also solve the matter, this was obviously just an accident, how could she abandon the feelings between sisters because of this accident?

Ruqing came to the gate of the Mo family, slowly knocked on the door, and soon someone came to open the door, it was a young guy, with a new face, it should have just come to the house during this time.

Because the problem that had plagued her for many days was solved, Ruqing was very good, so when the little girl treated her arrogantly and rudely, she didn't feel angry, but asked with a smile: "Is your young lady here?" ”

"Miss is not here, but our master is here, do you have something?" The little girl's expression suddenly became respectful.

Ruqing nodded: "I'm a friend of your young lady, I came over today to find her something, since she's not here, then forget it." ”

Ruqing said that, turned his head and left despite the puzzled gaze of the little guy, and happened to bump into Mo Qiyan who was about to enter the door, and he also recognized Ruqing: "Why are you here?" ”

Mo Qiyan was kind to them, and he was also Mo Simin's father, Ruqing's attitude couldn't help but be respectful: "I have something I want to tell Simin, but when I heard that she was not there, I planned to go back, but I happened to meet my uncle." ”

"Huh?" Mo Qiyan was surprised, "Didn't Simin tell you and Mrs. Lu before leaving?" ”

"Tell us what?" Ruqing felt a strange feeling in her heart, and she felt uneasy.

Mo Qiyan was puzzled and puzzled, and slowly explained the matter: "She went to her aunt's place to relax, and she has been gone for several days. ”
