When Li Zicheng arrived in Xining, it was almost Shen Shi, the sun was about to set, he went directly to the original Mandate of Heaven Governor's Mansion, since moving to Lanzhou, Xining's Mandate Governor's Mansion has been empty, as long as the soldiers clean it a little, they can live at night.

In fact, Li Zicheng has many places to stay, Mu Sirong's mother's Mu Mansion, Sun Mengjie's parents opened Xihuang Restaurant, Xining Catholic Church also has his house, although Xihuang Restaurant is run by Sun Mengjie's parents Sun Yuan and Lan's family, but Li Zicheng is an authentic proprietor.

You can even charter a hotel, or simply stay at Xining High School, which is more convenient for officials to teach.

However, thinking of Chen Qiudie's departure from Lanzhou that day, when he came to Xining, he must visit Sun Mengjie, Chen Qiudie, and Mu Sirong.

The soldiers began to clean the room, Li Zicheng sent his soldiers to Xining Primary School and Mu Mansion to inform Chen Qiudie and Mu Sirong, and asked them to meet at the original Heavenly Mandate Governor's Mansion in the evening, while he went to Xihuang Restaurant and went to his mother-in-law to have a meal first.

Li Zicheng had just left the original Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, and met Chen Dahu, the prefect of Xining, Chen Dahu got the information that Li Zicheng had entered the city, and immediately rushed to meet with a messenger, and saw that Li Zicheng was going out, so he hurriedly turned over and worshipped, "Subordinate Chen Dahu, knock to see the Metropolitan Governor!" ”

"Big Tiger doesn't need to be polite, get up quickly," Li Zicheng laughed, "Big Tiger, have the prefects and counties from all over the country come?" ”

"It's all here, it's coming," Chen Dahu bowed and replied, "They entrusted their subordinates to take the lead, and they will take the lead for the Metropolitan Governor today!" ”

"It's okay to catch the wind," Li Zicheng said with a smile: "I still have something to do, you let them rest early, and they will teach tomorrow, Ao, after tomorrow's class, you will make an appointment with Feng Keng, and that Nanchuan Zhixian Chu Sheng, I will summon them alone!" ”

"Yes, Grand Duke!" Although Chen Dahu did not invite Li Zicheng, he seemed to be very satisfied with Li Zicheng's separate summons, and knew that Li Zicheng was going out, so he arched his hand and said: "Then the subordinates will retire first......

"Well, you go back first!" Li Zicheng waved his hand and asked Chen Dahu to leave first, and then took He Xiaoxiao and a few people to Xihuang Restaurant.

When Sun Yuan and the Lan family heard that Li Zicheng was coming, they immediately greeted them out of the door, Sun Yuan was about to bend down and kneel down again, Li Zicheng hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop him, "No need to be polite, it's all your own family!" ”

Lan got off the donkey down the slope, put on a smile and said, "Old man, if you don't inform the girl, you will say that the governor has arrived!" ”

"Hey, hey!" Sun Yuan agreed, got up and ran into the inner room, and handed over the matter of entertaining Li Zicheng to his mother-in-law.

Lan glanced at Sun Yuan's back, turned around and put on a smiling face, "The Metropolitan Governor hasn't eaten yet, right?" Upstairs please! He scolded Sun Yuan who was far away: "Where did you die?" The store is not closed yet, and it will not be open to the public tonight. ”

Li Zicheng said: "Mother, don't bother too much, when the customer enters the restaurant, it is God, and it is not good to drive it away." ”

"Don't get in the way, don't get in the way, let the old man talk about it later," Lan led Li Zicheng upstairs and entered a small private room, "The metropolitan governor will sit first, and the hot tea will be here soon!" He had already left the door of the private room, but he turned back again, "Governor, do these military masters want to open another table?" Jie'er hasn't had dinner yet, do you want Jie'er to come over? ”

Li Zicheng smiled secretly in his heart, you said so, can I refuse? Besides, he came to Xihuang Restaurant to dine today just to meet Sun Mengjie, so he smiled and said, "Just follow my mother's wishes!" ”

"Hey!" Lan agreed, got started, and shouted as he walked: "Girl, bring hot tea up, my uncle is thirsty, waiting to drink it......"

Immediately there was a "knock" footsteps on the wooden staircase, and the footsteps reached the door of the private room, but they stopped, and after a while, a woman stuck half of her head through the crack in the door, "Sir......"

"Jie'er!" Li Zicheng beckoned, let Sun Mengjie come in, and waved to He Xiaomi, letting them go to the private room next door.

"Is the Governor really here?" Sun Mengjie's face showed a hint of blush, and then lowered her head to pour tea for Li Zicheng.

"How can what I said not count?" Li Zicheng asked Sun Mengjie to sit down opposite, "Jie'er has always been okay?" Now that I'm a teacher, are you tired? ”

"It's not tired, I'm used to it," Sun Mengjie brought the tea to Li Zicheng's side, hesitated for a moment, and said, "It's just ...... It's just that there is some knowledge in the textbook, and the students themselves can't understand it......"

"Haha," Li Zicheng laughed, "The knowledge in the textbook is really difficult, you have only studied for three years, it is difficult for you, so let's do it, you will circle the places you don't understand tomorrow, and I will explain your doubts one by one in the evening." ”

"Isn't the gentleman leaving tomorrow?" Sun Mengjie's beautiful eyes were full of affection, and there were naturally some expectations on her face.

Li Zicheng can see through it at a glance, if she leaves tomorrow, Sun Mengjie doesn't know how disappointed she is, she is more reserved, unlike Chen Qiudie, she can say what she thinks directly, but her eyes are very clear, she can see through it at a glance, and she doesn't need words.

"If I don't leave tomorrow, I will stay in Xining for a few days!"

Sun Mengjie smiled at this time, sat next to Li Zicheng, picked up the kettle and poured tea for Li Zicheng, and Li Zicheng's tea cup was almost full.

Li Zicheng took the kettle and put it on the square table in front of him, but he held her little hand with both hands, "Jie'er don't have to work too hard, let's talk!" ”

Sun Mengjie wanted to withdraw her hand, blushing and whispering: "My mother will serve the food herself in a while......"

Which mother, seeing the love of her daughter and son-in-law, didn't she laugh from the heart? Li Zicheng didn't care about it, he just didn't let go, "What are you afraid of, if my mother sees it, I'm afraid that I will be happy in my heart!" ”

Sun Mengjie smiled "poof", her shoulders trembled, but she glanced at Li Zicheng, "Mr. is not a good person......

"What does a good guy look like? Don't even dare to touch your own mother-in-law? Li Zicheng knew that the Lan family would definitely serve the food in person, and he didn't dare to go too far, so he could only hold Sun Mengjie's little hand, which was supposed to warm her hands.

Sun Mengjie was no longer timid, was silent for a moment, and said, "Mr. came to Xining, didn't he want to see Sister Die'er?" Do you want her to come over...... Die's sister is staying at school, and she may not have eaten yet! ”

"Fool, the palms and backs of your hands are full of meat, can't I look at you?" Li Zicheng let go of his right hand and scratched Sun Mengjie's face, "I have already asked the soldiers to inform her, and I will go to the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion after dinner!" ”

Sun Mengjie raised her little face, stared at Li Zicheng, smiled silently, stared for a long time, and suddenly laughed!

"Jie'er, what's wrong? Is the gentleman so good-looking? Li Zicheng already understood her mind from her gaze, but he deliberately pretended to be confused.

"Poof!" Sun Mengjie laughed so hard that she couldn't stop her forehead on the square table, and she was afraid that He Mi next door would hear it, and she desperately wanted to suppress her voice.

At this time, Lan Shi came up, there was a pot in the tray in her hand, as well as a jar of distilled spirit, and two pairs of bowls, she directly ignored the intertwined hands of the two, quickly took out a wood stove from the corner of the wall, wiped off the ashes on the surface with an apron, lit the charcoal, put it in front of Li Zicheng, and then placed the mutton in the pot on the wood stove.

"Jie'er is waiting for the governor, and my mother has to go down to cook!"

"Well," Sun Mengjie promised in a low voice, and the little hand under the table took the opportunity to escape from Li Zicheng's hand, "Mother doesn't have to worry too much, just the two of us, and we can't eat much food......"

"How's that going to work?" The Lan clan had already left the private room, but at this time he turned around, "The Metropolitan Governor is a distinguished guest, since the Mandate of Heaven Governor's Mansion moved to Lanzhou, this is the first time to return to Xining...... Jie'er doesn't have to worry about it, wait for the governor ......"

Sun Mengjie waited for the Lan family to go far away, and then smiled at Li Zicheng and said: "This time I have a mouthful, but I still have the light of Mr.!" As he spoke, he was going to pat the sealing mud of the wine jar.

Li Zicheng knew that there were still many things to be busy tonight, so he stretched out his hand to stop, "Jie'er, I traveled a long way today, and my body was a little sleepy, and the wine was still free, let's replace the wine with tea and ......."

Although Sun Mengjie raised her tea cup, she gave Li Zicheng a roll of her eyes, "Since you are tired, then you are still ...... The student will accompany Mr. to have some meals, and he will not go to the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion in the evening......"

Li Zicheng drank some tea and almost squirted out, "What are these words, I came to Xining, and if you don't go to the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, what will your father and mother think?" You thought we were arguing......"

"Poof," Sun Mengjie's face was red, and she couldn't tell whether she was shy or smoked by charcoal, "Mr. is always reasonable, I don't know if it is said the same in Rong'er's sister's house......"

"I just arrived in Xining, and I rushed over, and I didn't have time to see Rong'er and her family," Li Zicheng picked a piece of boneless mutton, put it in Sun Mengjie's bowl, and said, "However, Rong'er must not have as many fancy intestines as you!" ”

"Who the hell has the intestines?" Sun Mengjie smiled and lowered her voice: "The student is a flower intestine, and he also learned from Mr.!" It was only the two of them in the private room, and she seemed to be bolder than usual.

Li Zicheng was speechless for a moment, daring to love his husband, he unknowingly taught them badly, and now he dares to talk back, but, think about it, although Sun Mengjie is not very old, she can be regarded as a mature woman, no wonder so many people like mature women......

Douzui didn't have the upper hand, Li Zicheng took the mutton in the pot to vent his anger, and before the Lan family brought the next dish, he had already solved most of the pot of mutton, as if he hadn't eaten all day, which made Sun Mengjie roll his eyes again.

When leaving, Li Zicheng did not speak, in front of his father, Sun Mengjie was embarrassed to take the initiative to follow Li Zicheng to the Mandate of Heaven Governor's Mansion, the Lan family quietly pulled Sun Mengjie aside, and whispered: "Jie'er is obedient, while you are all young and have good bones, I want another child......"

"Mother......" Sun Mengjie glanced at it and found that Li Zicheng was far away, and it was estimated that he couldn't hear it, so he whispered: "This kind of thing...... How do you say you want it? ”

"The Governor of the Metropolitan came to Xining from Lanzhou, which means that he has you in his heart, and he will take this opportunity to ......" Lan couldn't wait to pinch it, but said softly: "Jie'er, you are still young now, if you are old in the future...... The Metropolitan Governor is a man of dragons and phoenixes, and there will inevitably be more women around him...... Follow the Governor back tonight......"

"Let it be!" Sun Mengjie said lightly, Li Zicheng is nearby, she really doesn't know what to say, her mother is really, whether she is on her side or on the side of her husband...... You don't even know what's going on in your husband's mind......
