The Huiyi fleet docked in Quanzhou, the transaction was in full swing, the sun was setting, the port was brightly lit, and the goods continued to be delivered until late at night.

Since the beginning of the transaction, the Quanzhou Port Huiyi camp has been idle, and many businessmen come to select the goods every day and pay for the delivery.

In the busy Huiyi fleet, since the beginning of the transaction, Yang Congyi has disappeared.

In the small courtyard in the north of Quanzhou City, a two-year-old child is chasing something in the courtyard, swaying left and right, his steps are like flying, completely ignoring the unevenness of the ground.

"Siyuan, slow down!"

Before he could finish speaking, a woman walked out of the house and chased after the child.

The running child listened to the shouting reminder behind him, waved his hands, and continued to run forward, without the slightest intention of slowing down.

But just as the child was about to catch up with his target, one of his feet tripped over a small dirt bag under his feet and he immediately fell to the ground.

The stunned child lay on the ground, and it took a few breaths to react, and he immediately cried loudly, but at the same time, he did not have the slightest intention of getting up.

When the woman saw the child fall to the ground, she ran to the child and reached out to pick the child up.

"Don't help him, let him get up on his own, he will definitely get up."

Hearing the cry, a man came out of the house and immediately stopped the woman from picking up the child.

"Master, Siyuan is still young....... the woman reluctantly withdrew her outstretched hand, looked at the man and the crying child, and felt distressed.

"He's more than two years old, he can run so fast, he must be able to get up, he's so old, you can still watch him all the time? If you fall down, you have to get up on your own, these principles should be taught to him, and it is not okay to blindly get used to him. ”

The man walked out of the eaves and slowly walked towards the child who had fallen to the ground and was still crying.

This man is none other than Yang Congyi, who has sneaked home from the fleet.

He walked up to the child, crouched down, looked at the crying child and said, "Get up." You fell on your own and got up on your own. ”

The boy looked at him with tears streaming down his face, and looked at him with tears, without the slightest intention of getting up, and then turned his head to the woman next to him, and looked at her with a pair of teary eyes, and cried even louder.

The woman looked at the crying child, and her heartache turned red, but when she saw the man's determined expression, she didn't dare to move lightly, nor did she dare to say anything.

The child saw that the woman was watching beside him, but he did not come to hug him, and under the grievance, he cried even louder, tears flowed, and snot almost flowed to his lips.

"Lian'er, Siyuan is crying, didn't you hear it!"

A questioning voice came from inside the house, and at the same time, a woman appeared at the door, she was none other than Yang Congyi's wife, Gu Qingchen.

"Madame, sir....."

Lian'er looked at the lady, at the master, and at the child, in a dilemma, and stopped talking.

"The child is not young, it is time to understand the reason, if he falls, he has to get up by himself, he must grow up, can we accompany him for a lifetime?"

Yang Congyi got up and looked at Gu Qingchen, who was frowning, how to educate children, he should have the right to speak.

"What does such a young child understand. When he is older, he will naturally understand these truths. The child is small and has a tender throat, and if he cries badly, he does not know how much more he will suffer. Lian'er, bring the child in. ”

There was no room for compromise and negotiation in Gu Qingchen's words, and the child's problem was naturally her decision.

"If you are like this, sooner or later you will spoil him and turn him into a gentleman, and you will be in trouble."

Yang Congyi frowned slightly, since the birth of the child, his voice in the family has become lower and lower.

"Help the child, hold the child, what's wrong? Will you become a gentleman? ”

Gu Qingchen felt uncomfortable when she heard this, the child is her lifeblood, as a parent, she wants her son to become a dragon, as long as she looks at it carefully, the child will definitely become a talent, how can she become a child?

Seeing that Mrs. had the upper hand, Lian'er hurriedly leaned over and picked up the crying child, held it in her arms, held the child in one hand, and skillfully wiped away the snot and tears on the child's face with a silk handkerchief in the other.

As soon as the child entered Lian'er's arms, his cry quickly became quieter.

"You don't have to cook my food at night."

Yang Congyi and Gu Qingchen glanced at each other a few times, then turned around and walked towards the outside of the courtyard.

"Sir, where are you going?"

Lian'er held the child, involuntarily moved a step under her feet, looked at the master's back, and turned back to look at Madame, but saw that Madame did not say anything.

"I'll go back to the fleet to take a look, I'm not at ease after a long time away."

Yang Congyi didn't look back, opened the courtyard door as he spoke, and left quickly.

Holding the child in her arms and looking at the back of the old man in the distance, Lian'er instantly felt an inexplicable sadness in her heart.

"Madame......"

With tears in her eyes, she turned to look at the lady standing under the eaves.

"The sun is so poisonous, don't let Siyuan get sunburned."

Gu Qingchen frowned, his face was slightly cold, and after speaking, he turned around and walked into the house, no longer paying attention to Lian'er and the child who were still in the courtyard.

The child didn't know if he also felt the atmosphere in the courtyard, and since he returned to Lian'er's arms, he quickly stopped crying, his eyes rolled, look at this, look at that, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

"Siyuan, let's go back to the house, it's too hot outside, and when the sun sets, I'm going out to play with you." Lian'er faced the child with a smiling face.

The child didn't nod or shake his head, but just stretched out his hands to wrap his arms around Lian'er's neck, and quietly lay on her shoulders to let her carry herself back into the house.

Gu Qingchen's face was ugly, she sat alone in the house sulking, Lian'er came in with the child, and she didn't turn her head.

Lian'er sat down on the side, put down the child, and pulled it in her hand.

"Madam, what's wrong with you and the master? It wasn't okay the other day. ”

After being silent for a long time, Lian'er hesitated again and again, and finally asked the question in her heart.

"You don't understand, you better leave it alone and take care of the children."

Gu Qingchen glanced at the child, and the expression on his face eased slightly.

"Madame doesn't say it, how can Lian'er understand, if there are troubles, it's always annoying to put it in her heart, maybe it's good to say it."

"Seven years ago, a woman suddenly came to our house, only stayed for a while and left, and she fought with me for a sword, do you still have an impression? She's back. ”

Lian'er's heart tightened, and she immediately remembered that woman, it should be surnamed Tang, at that time, she was excellent in style, beautifully dressed, and beautiful in life, between words, I could hear that she was a person who had read books, knew how to read, and had a good martial arts, and she was envious at that time.

Could it be that she is really a good friend of the master outside? It's just that why haven't I seen him for so many years, and I've never heard the master mention it?

"What the hell is going on, what does her coming back have to do with our family?" Lian'er had a guess in her heart, but she felt that it was impossible, after all, the woman surnamed Tang hadn't seen her for seven years, and she should be very old.

"My husband told me that she wanted to spend time with us. Although I can't live together, when I think of her, I feel uncomfortable. What do you think the hell is the master? If you want to take a concubine, you can also find a young one, she is older than me, and she is not known to laugh off her big teeth, how will she meet people when she goes out in the future! ”

Gu Qingchen was angry when she said it, this family was maintained by her with great difficulty, if she was really allowed to enter the house, the Yang family's face would be lost, and she would not be able to raise her head no matter where she went.

"Madam, in fact, as long as we don't hold a banquet and she doesn't live with us, it should be fine, just as the master raises a child outside, it won't have much impact on our family's reputation. Do you say yes, ma'am? ”

Lian'er's status in the family is not high, but no matter what, she is also a member of the family, although she knows that there is one more person in the family, whether it is good for her or his wife, but if the relationship between the lord and the wife continues like this, I don't know how much trouble will end up, and I feel scared when I think about it. In her opinion, as long as the husband compromises, the family can be stable, and stability is more important than anything else.

"I'm not jealous, I just think it's too casual and too much, and I can't raise a young person that old, right, isn't it a joke to spread it?"

Gu Qingchen was still angry in her heart, having said that, what she thought deep down, she wouldn't tell anyone, including Lian'er, who had been with her for many years and helped her give birth to a child.

"Outside affairs, just let the master solve it himself, maybe the master is just a whim, we are optimistic about this family, can the master come back?"

Lian'er was not born well, and she did not have a strong identity, no matter how she fights, she can't have her share, she can only be tied to her wife and accompany her master, so that she can live in peace and stability in this life.

Gu Qingchen was silent.

After saying what I had been holding back for a long time, I felt a lot better.

After a few breaths, my mood gradually improved.

"Siyuan, come to my mother."

She reached out and grabbed the child who was rushing straight at her.

"Mother, I'm hungry." The child bit his fingers, his milk voice was milky, and he had a pitiful look, which made people's hearts ache to watch.

"Hungry so soon?"

Gu Qingchen turned his head to look at Lian'er as he spoke, and then held the child in his arms.

Without waiting to speak, Lian'er got up and went to find food for the child.

The child was born after she was pregnant for ten months and endured great pain, this child is her heart and liver, although no matter who treats the child as if it was born to Mrs. Niang, it doesn't matter, as long as she is good to the child, let her do anything, and now her life is much better than before, what is she not satisfied with.

Yang Congyi returned to the port, but he didn't ask about the transaction, but summoned Su Zhong, Yao Chang and other major generals of the elite army together, and explained the follow-up arrangements one by one.

The fleet has returned to Quanzhou, and the Jingwu army no longer needs to be escorted with the ship, and a few days later, the fleet will return to the Yi fleet and go north to Mingzhou, and they will also have their place, that is, to return to the Liuqiu camp, continue to train and wait for the next opportunity to return to Yi.

According to Yang Congyi's arrangement, in addition to the 2,500 elite troops who returned directly to Liuqiu, there were also 2,000 guards who went back together.

According to his idea, when this return is over, all the guards will be pulled to Liuqiu, expand the camp, and concentrate on training for later use.
