Chapter 754: Return to Beijing
At this time, Cheng Wang also received a letter from his daughter Cheng Jinrong.
This letter is thicker than the last.
After reading the letter, Cheng Wang's expression was a little strange.
Chuan Bai asked curiously, "Childe, what did the little lady write in the letter?" Could it be that he has already picked a suitable one for his son's view? ”
Cheng Wang's expression was complicated and he nodded slightly.
If you count the time, it's too fast!
Chuan Bai couldn't help muttering a few words: "The remarriage of the son is not a trivial matter, you have to pick it carefully and consider it more." How did it settle so quickly? That's too fast, isn't it? ”
He asked his master with great interest: "Which girl is it?" How old is he, what is his appearance, what is his temperament and temperament? By the way, how much dowry do you want, how much dowry can you get? Will you bring a few beautiful maids as a dowry? ”
Cheng Wang's sigh was all disturbed by Chuan Bai, and he couldn't help but smile and glare: "Shut up for me!" ”
Chuan Bai replied with a smile: "Yes, yes, the slave will shut up!" However, Childe has to tell the slave first, who is the little lady in love with? ”
Cheng Wang's complicated gaze came again: "You also know this person." ”
Chuan Bai was stunned for a moment and looked at Cheng Wang: "The slave also knows?" ”
Cheng Wang snorted: "You saw her a long time ago." ”
Chuan Bai was confused when he heard this, and tried to recall: "Gongzi has been in the border for more than ten years, and he is in the barracks almost every day. The slave followed the son, and the number of times he left the barracks was very rare, how could he have seen any girl's house......"
Wait, a long time ago!
A figure suddenly flashed in Chuan Bai's mind, his eyes suddenly opened, and his mouth opened widely: "What Gongzi said, it shouldn't be that Miss Lu!" ”
Cheng Wang looked at Chuan Bai silently.
Chuan Bai was so shocked that his jaw almost dropped: "It's really Miss Lu!" It's been so many years, hasn't she been married? ”
Cheng Wang was silent.
Chuan Bai was dumbfounded.
Eight years ago, Ms. Lu came to the border for the first time. Chuan Bai went to see Miss Lu with his master at that time, thinking that the master would definitely nod. As a man, who can refuse a beautiful girl who offers to marry?
Unexpectedly, Cheng Wang simply refused. At that time, Chuan Bai still felt sorry for his master for a long time.
After two years, 20-year-old Lu Huiniang came to the border again. Chuan Bai saw Lu Huiniang being ruthlessly rejected by her master and left crying.
After that, Lu Huiniang was never heard from again. Chuan Bai always thought that after Lu Huiniang was disheartened with her master, she must marry someone else.
Unexpectedly, Lu Huiniang has never married.
Unexpectedly, Cheng Jinrong's stepmother would be Lu Huiniang.
After Chuan Bai was shocked, his mind turned quickly, and he asked curiously, "Isn't Miss Lu from Luoyang?" The little lady is in the capital, how can she know about Miss Lu? ”
Cheng Wang's eyes were a little complicated: "Jin Rong told me in the letter that Miss Lu's family has a cousin in the border army. General Lu Shen wrote a letter to Luoyang, and after hearing the news, she immediately rushed to the capital from Luoyang, took the initiative to post and went to see Jinrong. ”
Chuan Bai gasped again, and then, a strong admiration surged in his heart. Lu Huiniang is desperate, let go of all her reserve and pride, such persistence and tenacity moved the little lady.
Only such a woman can be worthy of her own son-in-law.
Chuan Bai still wanted to speak, but was kicked out by Cheng Wang: "Don't be noisy, go out first, I want to be quiet alone." ”
Chuan Bai grinned as he exited the camp.
The master and servant have been together for many years, and no one is more familiar with Cheng Wang's temperament than him. Cheng Wang is not hard-hearted, it must be because Miss Lu is in a mess.
That's great!
It seems that the master will soon be able to marry a wife and start a family.
As soon as Chuan Bai left, there was silence in the tent.
Cheng Wang sat alone for a long time, unfolded the letter again, and read it slowly.
Lu Huiniang......
Of course he remembered her.
He only has his deceased wife in his heart, and he does not want to remarry. Ten years ago, General Lu wrote a letter revealing his intention to marry, and he refused without hesitation. Unexpectedly, Lu Huiniang wrote another letter.
He refused with a sentence "Once the sea was difficult for water, but Wushan is not a cloud". After that, Lu Huiniang often wrote letters, but he never opened them. The thick stack of letters, all placed in the box, was already covered with dust.
Lu Huiniang traveled thousands of miles and came to the border twice. He wasn't unmoved at all, but he stiffened his heart and refused.
He only has his sister in his heart, and he can't tolerate a second woman.
Over the years, he occasionally thinks of the stubborn and stubborn Lu Huiniang. With such a ruthless and indifferent refusal, she must have already died of marrying someone else.
Unexpectedly, she has never been married, and has been waiting stubbornly and hopelessly.
Perhaps, this is also providential.
Going around and around, she still appeared in his life in the end.
Cheng Wang's heart was surging, and it was difficult to calm down for a long time.
He got up and walked to the corner where the miscellaneous items were kept, where five or six boxes were piled up. One by one, the last wooden box remains. After opening, the clutter on it was removed, and at the bottom of the box, dozens of letters were placed.
These letters have never been opened. The envelopes have been yellowed and piled up in one place, like the dusty years of time.
……
Two hours later, Cheng Wang went to the camp tent of the Chinese army and asked to see the Duke of Pingguo.
Pingguo Justice and a few generals discussed the change of defense at the border pass, and when they heard that Cheng Wang was coming, a smile flashed in their eyes: "You guys retreat first." ”
The generals tacitly smiled at each other.
The fact that Medical Officer Cheng wants to remarry is known to everyone in the army. When Medical Officer Cheng came today, he must have taken leave to return to Beijing to get married!
I just don't know whose girl is so lucky to be favored by Doctor Cheng.
Cheng Wang entered the camp tent, bowed with his hands and fists, and said respectfully to make his intentions clear.
Sure enough, he came to take leave.
According to the rules of the army, soldiers have 15 days off every year. If it's close, you can go home once in half a month. It's a pity that the soldiers are basically foreigners, and half a month is not enough to get home, and this holiday is mostly used to go to the border towns to find women to mess with.
There are high-grade generals, and the holidays are longer.
Cheng Wang is a six-grade medical officer and has 20 days of vacation every year. However, in the past 18 years, Cheng Wang has never taken a vacation. If you open your mouth today, you will take a leave of absence for half a year.
Ping Guogong asked knowingly: "Medical Officer Cheng suddenly took a leave of absence for half a year, I don't know why?" ”
Cheng Wang was not embarrassed, and opened his mouth to reply: "Xiaguan has not returned to Beijing for many years, and I want to go back to Beijing to see my daughter and grandson." ”
Ping Guogong sighed meaningfully.
Cheng Wang had to continue: "Xiaguan has to return to Beijing to get married. ”
The journey is long, and it takes three or four months to come and go. The half-year holiday looks long, but in fact, the time in the capital is only two months.
Ping Guogong raised his eyebrows and laughed: "You finally figured it out." At present, the border passes are relatively stable, and there are more than 100 military doctors in the army. You just have to go back to Beijing with peace of mind. ”
