Chapter 42 [The Picture of a Tear]
The snickering laughter of the two maids behind him, naturally he didn't dare to be loud, inaudible, as a subordinate, if he was naked, mocking the master, it would be disrespectful, even if Zhou Han was generous and big-bellied, it was impossible to be too indulgent, otherwise as soon as the precedent was set, then not all the subordinates would follow suit, so that the master would not be like the master, and the subordinate would not be like the subordinate.
Although the sound of the two maids snickering was inaudible, and it disappeared immediately after laughing again, Zhou Han had been fighting and honing in the killing field for several years, and his sense of perception and hearing was so keen, even if he didn't have eyes on the back of his head, he could know the snickering of the two maids at once, although Zhou Han was not a pedantic and uncivilized person, but he still frowned slightly, and said in his heart: "I can't be too laissez-faire with my subordinates, I have to find someone to manage this person, and become a person like the hotel foreman in the future, I am usually too busy, and I don't have the energy to control the people in the house, and Fang Hua is the captain of the guard, In the future, he will only be by his side, and this acting manager will not last long, but he can't catch fire in the backyard because of lack of management.
By the way, that Shuling is not the best candidate. ”
Zhou Han thought that he was going to see his son, and at the same time, of course, he would also meet Shuling, who was now taking care of his son, in other words, although this maid was extremely beautiful, but Zhou Han did not deliberately understand her, did not know her surname, only asked her name, at this moment, Zhou Han of course turned his head, asked Yue'er who was hugged by himself, and said: "By the way, madam, this Shuling has been in our house for the longest time, and I still don't know her surname." ”
Yue'er chuckled, took the opportunity to break free from Zhou Han's embrace, and said:
"You are really incompetent, you don't even know anything about the surname of the most intimate maid!
Her surname is Yao. ”
Yue'er obviously didn't notice the snickering of the maid behind her, and there was no other difference when she spoke.
Zhou Han coughed dryly and said:
"My husband is busy with military affairs, how can I have time to put it in this house, but Mrs., I am jealous when I say so."
"Die~" Yue'er patted Zhou Han on the shoulder, although she was scolding her face, she was smiling, and suddenly Yue'er's laughter stopped. Because she saw that there was a scar on Zhou Han's cheek that was not wide but several inches long, Yue'er had just seen Zhou Han back, she was too happy in her heart, and she didn't pay attention to it, but at this time, she saw it inadvertently, and suddenly felt distressed, and reached over to touch the scar, whether it was words or face, the distress was obvious. Said: "Husband." What's the matter with your scar? ”
Zhou Han reached out and held the jade hand that was caressing his cheek. didn't care: "It's just a small injury, and the battle on the battlefield is inevitable." ”
Although Zhou Han lightly unveiled his words, he said it very easily. I don't care, but how could Yue'er be deceived by Zhou Han's words, how can that scar not hurt anywhere else, but it hurts on the face, which can be seen that it is dangerous, and suddenly Yue'er's eyes turned red, and said:
"Husband, don't lie to me, isn't this expedition extremely dangerous?"
Zhou Han smiled. said: "Madame is too worried, not as dangerous as you think." ”
Yue'er was skeptical, Zhou Han really didn't want his wife to worry about him, so he continued: "Madame, don't think about it anymore, wait to see your son." Let Ning'er see how bad it is. ”
Yue'er didn't let her worry, she was afraid, and tears of distress fell, and she said: "If your husband goes on an expedition in the future, you can tell Yue'er in advance, and Yue'er will go to the temple to ask for a peace charm for her husband." ”
Zhou Han's face was straight, as if he had received a military order: "No, obey the orders of your wife." ”
Looking at Zhou Han's appearance, Yue'er sneered, laughed coquettishly, and said straight Zhou Han's flamboyant tongue, the little couple was very affectionate, and they were envious of others.
The little couple soon got it, and then came to the courtyard, as soon as they walked in, they saw Shuling holding a baby, next to the flowers planted by the wall, teasing the little guy, Shuling found that the courtyard arched door, the sound of someone coming, turned his head to see, and saw that it was his own old man's wife, Shuling immediately respectfully held the baby over, Zhou Han and his wife did not stop, the two sides stopped in the yard, Shuling hurriedly saluted, and said: "General, madam." ”
Zhou Han still looked hearty, and said with a smile: "If you hold Ning'er, you don't need to be polite." ”
Saying that, Zhou Han hurriedly helped Shuling up, and Shuling was flattered and said, "General Xie." ”
Zhou Han smiled, stretched out his hands, hugged the baby, and said, "Come, let Ben take a look at Ning'er, I haven't seen you for a month, I don't know if you're fat." ”
Shuling smiled and handed the swaddling clothes wrapped around Xiao Zhou Ning to Zhou Han, Zhou Han hugged it carefully, for fear that a slippery, lost his hand and fell off the little guy, and hugged Xiao Zhou Ning to his chest, Zhou Han looked at it, Xiao Zhou Ning was very quiet, but there would be no change of people and crying, a black, innocent little eye, looking at the person holding his tall and majestic shore, looking at the face that was slightly bigger in his young heart, the little eyes blinked, and seemed to be full of curiosity.
Zhou Han laughed, shook the swaddling clothes, and teased:
"Ning'er, you can recognize your father, and you will grow up in the future and become a man who stands up to the sky."
The masculine voice full of male masculinity came into Xiao Zhou Ning's ears, although he couldn't understand it, but when he saw Zhou Han laughing, Xiao Zhou Ning also laughed, a pair of small hands, grabbing indiscriminately, grabbed Zhou Han's face, seemed to be very curious about this face, the young little hands, like white jade, the little ones were very cute, on Zhou Han's face, they were very naughty to touch, that pinch, and they amused Zhou Han, "How can this be the other way around, is this little guy amusing me?" ”
Zhou Han said strangely in his heart, stretched out his finger, touched Xiao Zhou Ning's pink little lips, and said with a smile: "Little guy, naughty, hehe." ”
Yue'er also looked at Xiao Zhouning lovingly, her heart was very sweet and satisfied, the joy of family, nothing more than that, but suddenly, Yue'er's heart seemed to be touched by some memory, as if it stinged, her eyes were blurred, it seemed to penetrate a few years ago, she saw an old back, raised herself since she was a child, and took care of herself with doting love, he was Uncle Qiu, Yue'er's grandfather, in that catastrophe, he stood in front of him and died to protect himself.
There is sadness spreading in Yue'er's eyes, although Qiu Bo is not Yue'er's biological grandfather, but he picked it up and raised it, but the grace of nurturing and teaching is better than that of her biological parents, and even Yue'er doesn't know if her parents are dead at this time, she just comes up with the fragments of her life with her grandfather since she was a child, and those clips are played back like a movie, gradually, the movie paused in the scene of her grandfather falling in a pool of blood, great compassion, nothing more than life and death, and the woman wants to raise but does not wait.
Tears slipped quietly from Yue'er's cheeks, and even she didn't notice it, the tears slid from her cheeks to her chin, converging into a drop, that drop of tears full of sorrow for her deceased relatives, fell down and fell to the ground, the sound of "ticking" was inaudible, and the tears seemed to be full of all the bitterness of the past.
After a while, Yue'er reacted and quickly wiped away the two lines of tears on her cheeks, although it was only for a moment, Zhou Han still noticed Yue'er's sadness, but she still teased Xiao Zhouning and gave her wife time to sort out her sorrows, and after Shuling hugged Xiao Zhouning to Zhou Han, she stood aside with her hands tied, bowed her head and listened to the order, but she didn't notice Yue'er's abnormality.
After Yue'er's mood stabilized, Zhou Han handed Xiao Zhou Ning back to Shuling, and said, "Shuling, you have to take care of Ning'er on your behalf, you wait in the inner hall first, I will go over in a while, and I will tell you something." ”
"The general is polite, this is what the slave and maid should do." Shuling took the swaddling clothes with a sound and went to the inner hall.
When Shuling left, this courtyard belonged to the inner courtyard, so there were no people walking around here, but there were guards standing guard outside the courtyard, and patrol guards, and the patrol guards would not be stupid enough to come in at this time to disturb Zhou Han and his wife, so there were only two of them in this courtyard, Zhou Han turned around, looked at Yue'er, stretched out his hand to wipe away the tears in the corners of Yue'er's eyes, and said, "Thought of the past?" Don't cry, even if the sky falls, there will be me by my side. ”
was told by Zhou Han, Yue'er couldn't stop her tears, hugged Zhou Han, leaned her head on his shoulder, and cried: "Concubine, I think of my grandfather, he ......"
Zhou Han held Yue'er with both hands, and patted her back a few times with his right hand to comfort her: "Okay, all pain is in the past, time is the best medicine, don't be sad, otherwise, pick a day, let's go back to Wangjia Village and worship his old man." ”
Yue'er cried for a while, and under the fluctuation of her emotions, she was a little tired, so she left Zhou Han's arms at this time, nodded and said, "Well, with Ning'er, we should also go and take a look." Let Grandpa see his grandson. ”
Remembering that in addition to the annual sacrifice day once a year, I went there the year before last, and this year's Qiu Bo's sacrifice day has not yet arrived, so I didn't pass, and the last time I went to worship, it was more than half a year ago, and at this time, when I heard that Zhou Han agreed to pick a day in advance to go over and see, the sadness in Yue'er's heart suddenly eased a little.
Then under Zhou Han's repeated persuasion, Yue'er went to the wing room to rest, and did not go to Xiaoyun as planned, watching his wife leave the courtyard, outside the courtyard gate, followed by the two maids who were guarding, went back to the room to rest, for a long time, Zhou Han sighed lightly, shook his head and didn't remember anything, but he was a little curious about who Yue'er's parents were, but they were just ordinary people when they thought about it, which was not put on Zhou Han's heart, putting aside this curiosity, Zhou Han walked to the inner hall.
