Chapter 538: Lovers who love each other, family members who know each other

The Xuanfu in the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve was shrouded in a joyful atmosphere. It's just that although the yamen is sealed, some urgent affairs still have to be handled. Because the baggage transfer of the Northern Expedition had been decided, and the four warehouses of Xuanfu were still in a steady stream of grain, so on this morning, Zhang Yue, who was supposed to accompany Du Juan at home, still went to the General Soldier's Mansion. When a few scribes had stamped all the special warehouse notes on the big seals, and the time was almost noon, he ordered the people to send the warehouse notes to the four warehouses, and then locked them and went out of the door. As soon as he descended the steps, one of his own soldiers stepped forward and bowed down with a smile.

"My lord, Lord Hou said that I heard that your family has arrived, so please come to the yamen to gather together at noon. The Hou Ye has already sent someone to invite the little Hou Ye and Mrs. of the Hou family in Baoding, and it will be there in about a while, so you can go back and pick up people quickly! ”

The consequence of the lingering resistance early that morning was that Du Xuan could not get out of bed all day, and the mess on the kang took the boss's effort to clean up, and a small Chinese New Year's Eve was quite embarrassing, so Zhang Yue, the initiator, was self-deprecating, and he couldn't care about the number of ceremonies, and he thought that it would not be too late for Du Xuan to come to the General Military Mansion again on the first day of the new year. But now that Wu'an Hou Zheng Heng sent someone to invite, and clearly said that he invited Zhang Qing and Meng Jun and his wife, he really couldn't find a reason to refuse, so he had to agree at the moment.

Sure enough, when he returned home and told Du Juan, he immediately suffered a big eye, and the soft meat on his waist was also suffering, and it was not good to grin his teeth when he saw it. When his wife came out in a change of clothes, he still wanted to salivate and help him, but Du Huang looked at him fiercely, so he had to stand in place.

Lingxi was the last to get down the steps, and then said with a smile: "Qiu Zhen followed the young master and grandmother to the General Soldier's Mansion, and the slave maid and Amber were left behind." Today night is Chinese New Year's Eve, so-so is not good, let's keep it and be able to give Sister-in-law Li a start. The young master might as well be more compassionate, this time he will keep the two of them, and take Brother Xiang and Brother Liu and them away. We also brought a lot of guards, and a large group of people are enough to take care of the house. ”

Zhang Yue and Du Juan knew that Lingxi Amber had always been safe, and naturally there was no objection to keeping them down. Although there are only a few steps from the gate to the General Soldier's Mansion, it is always very inappropriate for the female dependents to show their heads, and Du Juan's action is still not so convenient, so naturally a carriage is prepared. When he stopped in front of the General Soldier's Mansion, it happened that there was also a carriage on the opposite side, and Meng Jun, who was riding a horse behind, jumped off the horse neatly, threw the reins to a door that greeted him, and then went to the carriage to help Zhang Qing down.

Coincidentally, Zhang Yuecha is also a general action. And the two people who followed the car saw the exact same behavior of Uncle Lang, and they couldn't help but snicker in their hearts. The two families were originally close relatives, and after seeing each other, they would enter the door together. Zhang Yue deliberately took a few steps behind and went in side by side with Meng Jun, and accidentally caught a glimpse of the eldest sister Zhang Qing's walking posture, and his face was full of strangeness.

Yes, it seems that he is far from the only one who is anxious to eat hot tofu!

The noble family has always married each other, not to mention the Zhang family and the Meng family, and Zheng Heng's nephew is married to the niece of the Lu family, the wife of the Marquis of Baoding, and is also a relative. At this time, the family banquet was placed in three flower halls within three gates, one of which was a few female dependents, and the outer one was three big men. The wine and food on both sides of the table were rich and cold, but there was only a curtain between the inside and outside, and the laughter and laughter were unimpeded, but it revealed a bit of festivity.

and other lords and titles are often the second and third generations, and Zheng Heng, the Marquis of Wu'an, who is over fifty years old, is now in the prime of life, with good health and good energy, and the dragon spirit and tiger are not a problem. The concubine came to Xuanfu for only a few days, and his face was full of red light, and he even spoke a little more energetically, often laughing heartily, and he didn't see the seriousness of office work at all.

"The reason why it is noon is because you all picked up your family members easily, and this Chinese New Year's Eve should have let you reunite by yourself, and it was not up to me, an elder, to intervene and squeeze your time. If you want to say that your daughter-in-law should be stable when she should be stable, and shrewd when she should be shrewd, many people are very envious, but since it is a family of generations of hairpins, it still matters to this heir. The rest of my son is not as good as you, only a little better than you, he is about the same age as you, and he already has two boys, two girls and four children! ”

Zhang Yue and Meng Jun didn't expect Zheng Heng to suddenly say such a thing, they looked at each other for a while, and then they both confused themselves by drinking. However, Zheng Heng raised his glass and drank it all, and then said with a smile: "Take advantage of your youth to have a few more, and you may not be able to do it when you are old." The first few in my house gave birth to a total of seven or eight boys and girls, and only three survived. This person is in the world, and he will be plagued by calamities at every turn, and if the incense is broken, the wealth that splashes the sky will also come to naught. Among the heroes of Jingjing, Zhang Wu, Marquis of Chengyang, was still above me, but because he had no children, as soon as he left, the title he had earned in exchange for his great military exploits was gone. ”

Although it is a little unlucky to discuss this topic in the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve, knowing that Zheng Heng is a kind reminder, Zhang Yue and Meng Jun naturally responded, and it was also lively here.

Although Aunt Zhang is not the main room of Wu'an Hou, she is young and beautiful, and she gave birth to a son the year before last. In terms of age, she is only five or six years older than Zhang Qing and Du Juan, but she is far better than her words and expressions. Knowing that Zhang Qing and Du Juan are both in the main room, Zhang's even more said how my wife is, with a humble and generous attitude.

Zhang Qing looked at her wearing a blue silk and blue-edged jacket, purple and blue armor, and only a silver bun on her head, but felt that she knew how to be measured, and she spoke casually. And Du Juan only felt sore when he sat there at this time, although he also laughed, but he still thought about the madness of yesterday. She blamed Zhang Yue for fooling around and didn't know what to do, but where did she remember what was the sense of proportion at that time?

This meal lasted more than an hour, and Zhang Yue and Du Juan returned home. When he entered the house, the first thing Du Juan did was to take off the coat and jewelry used to worship guests, put on a homely jade-colored satin jacket, and only loosely tied up a bun on his head. Seeing Zhang Yue sitting on the kang and looking at her, she could only sit cross-legged on the back of the kang chair, but she deliberately didn't look at him.

"Sister Juan, you have been married to me for more than two years, it stands to reason that there should not be any secrets between husband and wife, but you know my temper, and you first asked Qiu Zhen to bring the letter ......"

"I naturally know your temper, isn't it that there are things that like to carry on one shoulder, and there are things that like to be put in the stomach alone?" Du Juan raised his head at this time, looked at Zhang Yue and snorted angrily and funny, and then said lightly, "If you want to tell me what I mentioned in my family letter before, then you don't have to." The male protagonist is outside the female protagonist, not to mention that this is the private matter of the father-in-law, that is, if you are mysterious outside, as long as you do the right thing, I will not ask a word more. I just think it's inappropriate for me to ask about this matter, and I'm afraid that something will happen, so I'm just reminding you. ”

Zhang Yueyuan was still hesitant about how to let Du Juan go back and explain one or two to his mother, so that he could get by, and he was relieved to see her say this. It's not that these words can't be said to Du Juanming, it's just that some joints even he doesn't understand very well, maybe it's a confused account, why let Du Juan bear that thought?

Thinking of this, he put the matter aside for the time being. Although today was Chinese New Year's Eve, thinking of yesterday's appearance, he simply moved the kang table inside and sat forward again.

"There's one more thing I want to tell you, it's about the three of them. Autumn Scar grew up with me since she was a child, and I have never avoided her in internal and external affairs. Amber has a poor background, and she has been with me for nine years, and she has experienced many frightening times. The spirit rhino was given to me by my grandmother, and it has always been taken care of inside and out, and it is the most reliable and secure. After more than ten years of love, it has become a family habit over time, and it is the same for them and for me. ”

Du Juan, who was originally leaning lazily there, only listened to the beginning, and immediately sat up straight, his hands unconsciously twisted together. As early as the time when everyone reunited in Qingzhou for the New Year, she knew that Zhang Yue treated the three girls differently. At that time, she originally followed her father's order to go to Qingzhou to help, although she did have a good impression of Zhang Yue, but looking at Zhang Yue, she seemed to be interested in Meng Min, and she never thought that in the end, the marriage would actually tie herself and him together. When she married into the Zhang family, because there was no slave family to marry, the two of them were still taken care of by Lingxi Amber Autumn Scars in their daily lives.

The time spent together day and night for two years was enough for her to understand the minds of the three of them. After a long time, she can see these four words without anyone saying them, not to mention that the love between the three of them was before her. Accustomed to the big grin of Autumn Scars, accustomed to Amber's silence and thoughtfulness, and accustomed to Lingxi's shrewdness and ability...... In the past two years, the three of them have spent more time in front of her than in front of Zhang Yue. This time, the person Gu personally pointed out, Qiu Zhen carefully hid it in front of her, but that kind of joy couldn't be hidden. She was clearly prepared, but she was still hesitant when she stepped into the house yesterday, and even turned into a nameless anger, which turned into a madness.

At this time, Zhang Yue said it again, and she asked with a smile: "It's just a family habit?" ”

If the first is just an explicit hint from his grandmother and mother, then now Zhang Yue has finally figured it out that the trust that the three of them have established since childhood is not inferior to the love given to him by their parents and relatives in this life. After a moment of silence, he said word by word: "Sister Juan, you are my lover, I trust you as much as I believe in my own heart, but I have always regarded the three of them as a family member." ”
