Part 2 46 Homecoming (II)

Bai Qi saw a long-lost smiling face again, and this smiling face once touched the heartstrings in Bai Qi's heart. The smile was still simple and sincere, but Bai Qi still found a trace of sadness hidden between the girl's eyebrows.

The girl on the grassland would not hide her emotions, and Nalan who saw Bai Qi at first glance came towards Bai Qi with a surprised expression on her face. Speaking of which, everyone is not familiar with each other, Bai Qi and Nalan met in their hometown, and there is no old acquaintance, plus Qin Yushu is by his side, Bai Qi smiled at Nalan implicitly, nodded and said: "It turned out to be Nalan girl, you are in Qizhou again." ”

Qin Yushu, who was behind Bai Qi, also flashed out in time at this time and said, "Xianggong, are you friends with this girl?" Why don't you tell me about it? Qin Yushu looked calm, but Bai Qi could still feel it, the slight sourness in Qin Yushu's tone, and he couldn't help but want to laugh for a while, women are born like this.

Qin Yushu's appearance made Nalan pause his steps forward quickly, and Nalan who flashed a trace of frustration in his eyes quickly showed a sincere smile again, and smiled at Qin Yushu: "Is this a sister-in-law?" Sister-in-law is really beautiful, and only a person with such a symbol as sister-in-law is worthy of a hero like Shangduangongzi. ”

Nalan's performance was obviously beyond Qin Yushu's expectations, and even fools could see that Nalan's smile was sincere, and there was no trace of artificiality in his expression. From a slight disappointment to a sincere praise for Qin Yushu, this made Qin Yushu feel ashamed, and also had a good impression of Nalan for no reason.

"Good Peugeot girl, all the way from the grassland to the Central Plains, the journey is tiring, do you rest assured at home? It's winter, look at what your face looks like. Qin Yushu is also knowledgeable, Nalan is dressed in a national costume, Qin Yushu can see where she comes from at a glance, perhaps out of a good impression of Nalan, Qin Yushu has a little more concern in his words.

Nalan Zhanyan, whose cheeks were red from the cold, said with a smile: "Thank you sister for your concern, the girls on the grassland are not so squeamish, riding horses to graze and collect horse manure, these have to be done since childhood, this hard work is nothing." ”

Qin Yushu, who was overflowing with motherhood, stepped forward and grabbed Nalan's little hand, a cold feeling penetrated through, Qin Yushu shuddered in reply, and said to Nalan distressedly: "Good girl, look at your cold hands, what's the big deal, this situation wants you to come here on this long road." Let's go, go to my sister's room to warm up first, my sister sees you and likes it, our sisters have a good chat. ”

The two women fell in love like this, which was greatly beyond Bai Qi's expectations, and after a while, Qin Yushu stopped going to the street, and Bai Qi was also left aside.

Nalan also happily took Qin Yushu's hand and said, "My little sister also likes my sister-in-law, my name is Nalan, what is my sister-in-law's name?" ”

"My surname is Qin, my name is Yushu, sister, you still call me sister, I like this." Qin Yushu also had a smile on his face.

"Then I'll call you Sister Qin." Saying that, Qin Yushu took Nalan's hand and was about to go back to the house.

At this time, a few alien men who had been standing not far away came up, muttered to Nalan in Tatar, and then looked at Bai Qi with a wary look.

Bai Qi smiled wryly when he was looked at, thinking to himself that I didn't take the initiative to talk to Nalan, what do you think of me like this?

The clever Nalan couldn't see the meaning here, and said to Na Hanzi in Chinese with disgust: "De Rile, don't say it, the man on the grassland, where did you get so many hearts, Sister Qin and I fell in love at first sight, Duan Gongzi is also kind to me, what else can you do to me?" He glared at the man fiercely.

Nalan said these words in Chinese, obviously for Bai Qi and Qin Yushu, how could the two of them not understand the truth, Qin Yushu and Bai Qi smiled at each other, and at the same time added a little favor to this Nalan who looked refreshed and careful at the same time.

After Nalan finished speaking of his entourage, he turned around and smiled apologetically at Qin Yushu and Bai Qi: "Duan Gongzi and Sister Qin, don't take it to heart, he also cares about me." ”

When Bai Qi heard this, she said in her heart that this little girl is not simple, she is very good at being a person, and she has a strong entourage, she is definitely not an ordinary grassland girl, maybe she is still some kind of princess.

Seeing Nalan speak like this, her entourage didn't say anything more, and consciously retreated. Nalan then took Qin Yushu's hand and went to the inn.

Entering the room, Bai Qi smiled at Nalan and said, "You sisters talk well, I'll go and let someone prepare a charcoal fire, it's cold, don't freeze you." With that, Bai Qi walked out of the room.

One of the two women seems innocent and simple, with this innate beauty, and the other is dignified and quiet, empathetic, what can the two of them talk about when they get together, Bai Qi doesn't know, and he doesn't want to know.

It's really interesting to think about, at the beginning, Qin Yushu was still wary of Nalan, but now the two of them can be like that, and sometimes women really can't understand.

Bai Qi was outside to explain that the charcoal fire was ready in the store and sent it in, but Bai Qi, who had nothing to do, didn't want to go in and listen to the women, so he walked around outside. Seeing that it was not early, I returned to the inn and asked the store to prepare dinner, and then returned to the room.

Bai Qi habitually knocked on the door, and Qin Yushu inside responded before pushing the door in. At this time, the two women in the room were sitting on the bed hand in hand, and seeing Bai Qi recently, Qin Yushu said to Bai Qi excitedly: "Xianggong, I and Sister Nalan have become sisters with different surnames, I have no relatives in my small family, and now I have a younger sister, I am really happy." ”

In these years, women are like men, as long as they meet and fall in love, they will have a trick of marrying Jinlan. Bai Qi smiled and said: "This relationship is good, it just so happens that I ordered wine and food, I think I will go and ask them to bring it in, which can be regarded as a celebration for your sisters." ”、

When Nalan saw Bai Qi, he glanced at Bai Qi with a complicated expression, stood up and said, "Then it's hard brother-in-law." ”

Bai Qi was about to go out, and Qin Yushu spoke: "Don't be in a hurry to order wine and food, there is something I have to tell Xianggong first?" ”

Bai Qi stopped and asked with a smile: "What do you have to say?" Bai Qi made a respectful gesture, and the two women who looked at it laughed together. In these years, men talk to their women, which one is not arrogant, and they don't find it interesting to see them with a low-voiced demeanor like Bai Qi.

Qin Yushu pursed his lips and smiled: "Don't pretend, Sister Nalan has encountered difficulties in coming to the Central Plains this time, you have to help her, I have already helped you with the matter, you are not allowed to shirk, otherwise I will not be able to explain in front of my sister." ”

As soon as Nalan heard this, he quickly stood up again and said, "Sister, don't say that, my matter is not a trivial matter, don't embarrass my brother-in-law." Qin Yushu smiled and said, "It's okay, this matter is difficult in the eyes of others, but in your brother-in-law, it is not a problem." ”

Seeing Qin Yushu like this, Bai Qi felt slightly unhappy in his heart. Xindao said that this woman didn't discuss with herself and took care of things for herself, this is not a good habit, and she will have to be beaten in the future.

I had an idea in my heart, but Bai Qi didn't show it on my mouth, and said with a calm smile: "How much can I do, since you promised Sister Nalan, I will try my best to help, but if I can't help, my sister doesn't blame me." ”

Bai Qi said that he did not leak, and left a way out for himself first, after all, Nalan is a foreign race, not my race, and his heart must be guarded against. Don't look at Nalan's innocent appearance, but the ability to control his subordinates outside the door just now is not an ordinary master, which Bai Qi reminds himself all the time. It is an eventful time now, and I am consciously or unconsciously involved in disputes between countries, so I have to be a little more careful in everything I do.

Where did Qin Yushu and Nalan think of this meeting, Bai Qi's heart turned over these many years. Qin Yushu said with a smile: "It's not a difficult thing, Sister Nalan used to buy grain in Shangzhong, but now that the domestic grain control is strict, she can't sell grain at all, isn't this worrying." ”

Bai Qi was shocked when he heard this, and said in his heart that he had just put Zhang Churen together on the food issue, and now there is another Nalan Lai, now food is a sensitive topic, and the food embargo is a method proposed by himself, but now Qin Yushu has found such a trouble for himself, Bai Qizai can't help but complain in his heart that Qin Yushu doesn't know the importance of it, and he takes this job for himself at the right time.

Bai Qi smiled without moving: "The food is very tight now, Sister Nalan, if you want to make this deal, it's not easy." Tell me first, what do you do when you buy food? Bai Qi began to look at his face and test Nalan.

Speaking of food, Nalan suddenly frowned, and said with a wry smile: "It's hard to be a brother-in-law, there has been a drought on the grassland this year, and the cattle and sheep are thirsty and hungry, and a lot of them have died." In winter, several rare snowstorms hit the grasslands, and the grasslands suffered heavy losses. At present, the food for the winter may be cut off at any time, so several tribes have scraped together some money and asked me to bring people to Houwei to buy some food to cope with this long winter. ”

Bai Qi looked at his color, listened to his words, and saw that Nalan looked sincere, not like a fake, and it was estimated that the facts were not much different from what Nalan said, so he relaxed slightly, as long as it was not from the Xiongnu and Zhang Chu, things would be much easier.

Bai Qi continued to ask: "Sister Nalan, why don't you Tatars get food from them next to Northern Qin, but instead go to the guard near and far?" ”

Hearing Bai Qi's question, Nalan smiled wryly and said, "What my brother-in-law said, we have thought of it a long time ago. Since my brother-in-law asked like this, I should also know that the queen mother of Northern Qin is our Tatar people, and if Northern Qin hadn't supported us with a batch of food, half of us Tatars would have starved to death. Beiqin itself is not a place where food is produced, and their food is also tight, so they can't let people take out their own rations to help us, right? ”

"Aren't you next to the Huns, you can ask them for help, they are all begging for a living on the grassland, and they should reach out to pull you at this time." Bai Qi asked deliberately, Bai Qi knew very well in his heart, the Huns were also suffering from disasters this year, where could they help the Tatars, Bai Qi asked, but he didn't want to test it to see what the relationship between the Tatars and the Huns was.

Unexpectedly, when Nalan heard this question, his face suddenly showed a sad face, his eyes were red, and tears began to roll in his eyes, Qin Yushu, who was watching, took Nalan's hand distressedly, and said with disgust in his mouth: "Look at you, what nonsense have you said, you can help this matter, you can't help it, you can't help, it's really not good, I will personally go to ask my godfather and let him agree, you have gone home by yourself, and I will go to Yuzhou with my sister to see my godfather tomorrow." ”

Bai Qi didn't expect things to be like this, and he didn't know what to say at this time, Bai Qi has never been afraid of heaven and earth, just afraid of women crying and wiping tears.

At this time, Bai Qi didn't know what to say, and was thinking about simply responding to this matter, Nalan hurriedly stood up and said: "Sister, don't say that, how can my matter affect the relationship between my sister and brother-in-law, I am sad because of myself, not because of my brother-in-law." ”

Qin Yushu heard it strangely, and hurriedly said: "Sister, don't be sad, let's not talk about the Huns." ”

Nalan collected his emotions for a while, and then said: "We Tatars are so difficult at the moment, mainly because of the Huns. ”

"What do you mean by that?" Bai Qi hurriedly asked.

Nalan glanced at Bai Qi with a complicated expression and said, "Since the beginning of winter, the Huns have been hit by a rare snowstorm like us, and they have also suffered serious losses. For this reason, the Huns took advantage of our idea and successively sent troops to invade our steppe, robbing us of a large number of cattle, sheep and livestock, and capturing a large number of our people to become slaves. If it weren't for the Empress Dowager of Northern Qin asking Northern Qin to send a large army to approach the border of the Xiongnu and threaten their back route, I am afraid that they would still be wreaking havoc on our grassland. ”

Before Bai Qi could speak, Qin Yushu couldn't help but scold: "The Huns are really not things, how can they do this?" Bai Qi smiled bitterly when he heard this, you are too naΓ―ve, the Tatars are good people? In that year, 400,000 iron cavalry invaded the Central Plains, and the city of Liaozhou was burned for ten days, killing 130,000 people in the Central Plains. The contradiction between the Huns and the Tatars is nothing more than an exposure of the nature of the jungle, and there is nothing to sympathize with. I think back then, if it weren't for the Ling general of Northern Qin who killed the Tatars in a war and killed 200,000 Tatars, the Tatars were greatly injured, and now I don't know which unlucky lord the Tatars are busy robbing.

Bai Qi didn't dare to say this now, otherwise Qin Yushu would have to turn his face. It's just that this favor now seems to be a must-help, how to help to get the maximum benefit, this is the problem that Bai Qi has to consider.

Having made up his mind, Bai Qi smiled and said: "Sister Nalan, don't be too sad, although the food matter is difficult, brother-in-law will do his best, I don't think the problem is too big, but how to operate it, you have to let me think about it for some time." ”

After hearing Bai Qi's words, Nalan finally showed a happy smile on his face, stood up and bowed to Bai Qiyingying: "So my sister represents the people on the grassland, thank you brother-in-law." ”

With his wife in front of him, Bai Qi didn't dare to be stupid enough to reach out to help Nalan, and hurriedly gave Qin Yushu a look, and Qin Yushu, who understood it, hurriedly grabbed Nalan and said, "Sister, I'll see the outside, and I'll be exempt from this vulgar etiquette." I don't think it's early, the matter is over, I'm hungry, I'm hungry, I want you to go for another trip and let people bring dinner in. ”

After dinner, Bai Qi, who was in a complicated mood, didn't eat much, the two women were intimate during the banquet, they kept whispering there, and they kept talking after the meal, Bai Qi sat outside by himself, thinking about how to deal with the current matter.

The Tatar man outside the door came to urge him three or four times, and Nalan reluctantly left, anyway, everyone lived in the same inn, and it was a matter of time to meet at any time, so Qin Yushu let Nalan leave.

Sending Nalan away, Bai Qi came in, Qin Yushu saw Bai Qi and said excitedly: "Xianggong, Sister Nalan told me a lot of things on the grassland, and I want to go to the grassland now, think about it, the endless prairie, the endless blue sky, a little white cloud in the sky, and the cattle and sheep on the grassland are walking freely, what kind of beautiful scenery should it be?" ”

Qin Yushu was still excited, but Bai Qi sank his face and said, "Yushu, what mistakes did you make today, do you know?" ”

Bai Qi suddenly asked sharply, and the excitement on Qin Yushu's face who listened to it stopped abruptly, and he looked at Bai Qi blankly: "Xianggong, what's wrong with you?" Speaking of which, Bai Qi and Qin Yushu have never spoken in such a stern tone since they were combined, how can this not make Qin Yushu frightened.

Bai Qi continued to say with a cold face: "Do you know why food is so tight now? You don't dare to do it so much without consulting me? Do you still have me in your eyes? ”

Qin Yushu saw Bai Qi like this, and knew that something was wrong, but fortunately, Qin Yushu and Bai Qi had been together for many days, and he also knew Bai Qi's habits, so he smiled and stepped forward to snuggle up to Bai Qi and said: "Good husband, don't be angry, don't I see my sister pitiful to her?" That's when I was moved by compassion, and I won't dare to do anything for you in the future. ”

In front of the opponent, Bai Qi can be soft and hard and not eat, but in front of women, Bai Qi has always eaten soft and not hard, Qin Yushu in front of him smiled like a flower, the two bulges on his chest were tightly pasted, and the smooth pretty face was also attached to Bai Qi's face, the heat emitted from his mouth and nose was sultry, and the soft words, the little fire in Bai Qi's heart was dissipated by the volatilized smoke in an instant.

However, Bai Qi still reminded him: "Yushu, forget it this time, don't take it as an example in the future, otherwise don't blame me for being ruthless." Bai Qi tried his best to make his tone harsh, but Qin Yushu didn't eat this set at all, grabbed Bai Qi's neck, and lightly tapped his red lips on Bai Qi's cheek and said, "Xianggong, I just arranged for someone to prepare bath water, we haven't taken a bath together for a long time, let's do it again today?" Saying that, Qin Yushu had already probed into Bai Qi's chest with one hand, gently soothing him.

Bai Qi's last tough attitude was exhausted in this pink gentleness, and all that was left was the toughness of the body.

After a night of joy, Qin Yushu had already fallen asleep, but Bai Qi, who had worked hard, was in no mood to sleep, and the question of how to deal with Nalan had been circling in his mind, and how to deal with it, Bai Qi couldn't make up his mind.

It seems that Zhizhi will first see what chips Nalan can come up with, and then decide what he should do, Bai Qi said to himself, and fell asleep.
