Twenty-five city district governor's mansion

"I heard that Yu'er is coming back, right?" A young looking woman passed the chopsticks and happily talked to the rather dignified man in front of her.

This woman looks young, but if you look closely, she should be more than forty years old, and she looks very happy when she speaks, and then the man also smiled after taking the chopsticks and said, "Well, I'm coming back soon, and there is still a month or so, just hand over the things over there." ”

The woman was wearing a colorful long dress, with a green hairpin on her head, her figure was graceful, her hair was half scattered, half tied up, which looked quite tasteful, sat down to eat with the man, and said to the man in a strange tone: "It's all your fault at the beginning, you have to send Yu'er to such a far place, and you are so busy, it is difficult to come back, I haven't come back at the end of the year, and I haven't seen Yu'er for more than a year." ”

"Isn't there no suitable place and time, this time as soon as I had the opportunity, I called him back." The man replied to his wife.

This man's name is Mo Changji, the head of the third district, Mo Yu's father, the whole family is a family of eunuchs, this graceful woman is Zhong Liyue, Mo Yu's mother, and the eldest daughter of the Zhong family.

Zhong Liyue was very happy and kept putting vegetables into Mo Changji's bowl, and said while eating happily herself: "This is long overdue, correspondence is always worse than meeting, where is the arrangement this time, or it is in Twenty-five City, and the official position is almost not tight." ”

Mo Changji suddenly stopped the movement in his hand, but it was fleeting, this small action did not let Zhong Liyue find out, so he continued to pick up the vegetables, and then said softly in a very flat tone: "It's not Twenty-five City, but it's quite close, it's in Beidacheng a little north." ”

Zhong Liyue sighed softly: "Okay, but it's okay, it's not as far as the Thirty-Nine Cities, it's quite close," but when he spoke, he seemed to remember something, and quickly put down his chopsticks, and said to Mo Changji very nervously, "That's not right!" Didn't you say that according to the news from over there, the Yuan clan was about to move and had the intention of starting a war? Why did you arrange Yu'er to Beidacheng again! How dangerous! Zhong Liyue's pupils widened, she looked quite flustered, and her anxious expression was vividly displayed on her face, she was eating happily just now, but now Zhong Liyue can't eat a mouthful of food.

"Yes, that's it," Mo Changji still looked very calm, still continued to eat, looking at Zhong Liyue's nervous appearance, so he also began to comfort Zhong Liyue, "Liyue, don't worry, the news is not necessarily that, it's just possible, besides, he's not the only one over there, there's not much danger, don't worry." ”

Zhong Liyue still looked very worried, and continued to say to Mo Changji: "In that case, isn't it different who to send?" Why don't you let Yu'er come back, and send other people's children the same. ”

After Mo Changji heard this, he took a few deep breaths and put the chopsticks on the bowl, from the degree of bending of the chopsticks, it can be seen that Mo Changji still uses a lot of strength, and he has suppressed a lot, otherwise the bowl will explode, and he first said two words in a low and angry tone: "Ridiculous!" ”

These two words startled Zhong Liyue, so frightened that Zhong Liyue's hand that was holding vegetables immediately stopped, and then slowly raised his head, Mo Changji said in a slightly soothing tone: "The rise and fall of the world, the husband is responsible, everyone has the obligation to protect their own country, not to mention my Mo Changji's son, he should take the lead in the charge," and then his tone eased again, "Liyue, I know that you feel sorry for Yu'er, I also feel sorry, don't worry, it's okay, besides, think about it, not only do you have a son, Other people's parents must also feel sorry for their children, but if they all think like this, then who will defend the mountains and rivers of the motherland, and who will guard the frontier. ”

Zhong Liyue couldn't help it as she spoke, shed a few tears, and then put down her chopsticks and said in a choked voice: "I'm a little tired, go back to the house to rest for a while, and I'll clean it up later." ”

"Hey, hey, hey......" Mo Changji wanted to stop his wife, but his wife went out without looking back, and gently closed the door, leaving Mo Changji sitting alone in the room.

The shallow sunlight shone in through the window, showing a trace of comfortable dust, and the sumptuous meal on the table made Mo Changji's lonely figure even more apparent, Mo Changji leaned on the chair gently, his eyes closed slowly, and the sound of breathing was heard quite clearly in this room.

Suddenly, there was a rush of footsteps outside the door, accompanied by a cheerful girl's voice, and before the door of the room opened, a female voice was heard outside the door: "Mother, I'm back?" What do you eat? ”

As soon as the voice fell, the sound of opening the door with a fluttering sound immediately reached Mo Changji's ears, Mo Changji was not attracted by this sound to turn his face to look, because Mo Changji knew who it was, he just slowly opened his eyes that he had just closed, and then let his upper body sit up straight, picked up the chopsticks, and was ready to continue eating.

The little girl who came in was Mo Changji's youngest daughter, her name was Mo Ying, she was taking classes in a regular school, she had not graduated, and she came back for lunch this time.

"Huh?" Mo Ying looked at Mo Changji alone in the room a little puzzled, "Dad, mother?" Where did my mother go? As he spoke, he sat down in his place, holding the dishes and chopsticks, and prepared to eat.

"Your mother is a little unwell, go back to the house to rest, you hurry up and eat, go to rest for a while after eating, and then prepare for the afternoon class." Mo Changji replied indifferently while eating.

Although Mo Ying was puzzled, she didn't ask too much, because Mo Ying was still more afraid of her father, she was more majestic, and she didn't dare to show her lively side in front of her father, and she said more to her loving mother if she had anything to say, and this time she had heard a little about the news that her brother was about to come back, but she still didn't dare to verify the authenticity of this matter with her father, and she was going to go to her mother's room to ask later, so what she did now was to honestly hurry up.

Mo Changji continued to ask at this time: "How is it in the academy, recently Mr. told me about your recent situation, it seems that you don't work hard." ”

Mo Ying lowered her head at this time, with a bitter face, while blaming her husband for being troublesome, she was thinking about how to deal with this matter, her recent performance in the school was indeed not very good, but there was a reason for this, she was about to take the final test recently, and this matter also meant that she was about to get out of the evil school, so her mood must be very excited, and most of her thoughts were not on this, I'm thinking about begging my mother to see if I can find a closer city to appoint, of course, this city is the best, but with my understanding of my father, it must be as far away as possible, and this city is a place where a district-level office is stationed, the level is relatively high, and my father has always wanted to experience himself, so I estimate that I will run far, far away, just like my hard-working brother.

"That..... This ......" Mo Ying spoke a little by herself.

Before Mo Ying could explain this matter, Mo Changji's rather majestic voice said: "It's about to finish, and you can't spread your heart, the more critical it is at the end, Mr. will tell you about his life's experience, this appointment has a lot to do with the dying test, I will discuss the place of appointment with your mother, try to let you exercise, you don't need the school to decide for you, just let your mother and I decide for you." ”

After hearing these words, Mo Ying's heart was bitter, although his father's words said to discuss it with his mother, but according to his understanding of his father, it was basically his father who made his own decision, and then he informed himself that it was basically like this, when he thought of this place, Mo Ying felt that his whole sky was dark, but Mo Ying felt that he couldn't just give in, and he must go to his mother to talk about this matter after dinner, and let his mother ask his father for a good please, by the way, By the way, ask about my brother again.,I have to have not seen my brother for nearly two years.,Although my brother often disciplines himself like a father.,But it's been two years.,I really miss it.。

After eating quickly, Mo Ying tidied up her dishes and chopsticks a little, usually in front of her father, Mo Ying would behave like a good girl, but the actual situation is needless to say, Mo Ying got up from the dining table gently, then gently opened the door, and tiptoed out of the door, in short, everything was quite quiet, and he was quite well-behaved, but after going out, he ran away, Mo Changji smiled helplessly after hearing it.

Mo Ying quickly ran to Zhong Liyue's room, didn't even knock on the door, pushed the door slammed in, and shouted happily as she entered: "Mother, I'm back, what's wrong with my body?" ”

Zhong Liyue was cleaning up the room at this time, when she heard her little daughter coming in, and then put down the things in her hand and said to her little daughter with a smile: "Ying'er, you're back, have you eaten?" At this time, Zhong Liyue no longer had the tears and demeanor on his face when he was eating just now, as if what happened just now did not happen to Zhong Liyue at all.

"I've eaten," Mo Ying replied, "Mother, why did you eat so quickly today, by the way, let me ask something, Mother, my brother is coming back recently, right?" ”

When Zhong Liyue heard this, her whole body suddenly paused, including her eyes, and then Zhong Liyue smiled lightly and said to Mo Ying: "Well, Yu'er is coming back soon, there is still a month or so, and it will be fine after the affairs over there are handed over." ”

"Oh, this way, that mother, I have one more thing I want to ask you for, do you think it's okay?" Mo Ying began to be coquettish, hoping to get her mother's support.
