When I got home, I told him about it, and I thought about writing a letter to General Helan to express my gratitude, and confessed, and almost told him what I had said to the county lord again, and asked Uncle Xiang to send it to the post station.

In the evening, Yuan Qing, Yuan Shuang and the clan brother Weiliang all ran over, Sister-in-law Xiang didn't even bother to pour tea, standing quietly behind me, I was too lazy to be polite, look at Yuan Qing, the lost soul in the afternoon was better, but it was not very pleasing to the eye. Yuan Shuang was beaming, and I seemed to have guessed their intentions. Weiliang sat down for a while and gave Yuanqing a look, but Yuanqing didn't seem to see it, Weiliang sighed and squeezed out a smirk: "Auntie, Brother Yuanqing just came to me and cried bitterly, saying how Auntie understands the carelessness and how she doesn't remember the past suspicions, so Weiliang is deeply moved, and Auntie has been away from home for more than a year, Yuanqing specially invited me to come and talk to Auntie, please take Grandma and sisters home!" ”

"Yes, mother, go home! The family is messed up......" Yuan Shuang nodded hurriedly, and when he said the latter sentence, Yuan Qing glared at Yuan Shuang, but thinking that they were all talking, how could he be regarded as the person in charge, he should also say two words, "Mother, you also said it, that family is still everyone's, mother is here, Yuan Qing is restless every day, mother should go home to live!" ”

I smiled, Wei Liang and Yuan Qing should have discussed, just invite me home, so that it will look better to the outside world, but the fact of the separation will not change, and if it is not good, this part of my hand will be swallowed up.

Alas! I sighed and looked at the heavens, why are there so many people in the world who think they are wise?

"Mother!" Yuan Shuang was so anxious that he screamed.

"I have already told Your Majesty and General Helan, I like it here, I have had a good year, thank you for your concern."

"Mother, aren't you trapping and unrighteous like this?" Yuan Qing was impatient and stood up.

Weiliang seemed to be smarter than Yuan Qing, pressed Yuan Qing on the chair, turned back to me and smiled: "Auntie is indifferent by nature, not we and other laypeople can compare, it's just that since we are laypeople, we have to live the life of laypeople, you say, right?" Yuan Qing has not yet established a family, and he is busy at home and outside the house, and he really hopes that his aunt will go home to preside over the overall situation. Although the family is divided, how can Yuan Qing say that he is also the heir of his uncle, and he has to succeed his uncle's peach, so my aunt will not even care about my uncle! ”

"That's right, tomorrow, I will ask the seventh master to be the master of asking Yuan Qing for a daughter-in-law, so that the family will not be chaotic. By the way, I also set a course with Shuang'er. "I deliberately misinterpreted.

"Auntie!" Wei Liang let out a long sigh, laughed himself, and thought for a moment, "Okay, auntie, you say, how can you go home?" ”

"Seriously, I don't want to go home! It's nice to be here. ”

"Auntie, aren't you angry with me? The separation is your own proposal, of course, now you can also take it back by yourself, you are an elder, of course you say what you say. ”

"Alas! To be honest, Weiliang, if you don't split up the family, you really let Yuanqing take charge of the family affairs, I'm really afraid that in the future, our mothers will have to sleep and eat! I smiled and looked back at Yuanqing, "This year, Yuanqing, you look at it yourself, how are you taking care of the shops and fields?" If you don't argue at four times, you don't divide the grains, you are still arrogant, and you don't believe in the words of loyal servants, so how can it not be a mess? What's more, the mistaken gangsters, the martial arts family has actually fallen into your hands, you let me go back, even if I let the family save you, I am afraid that I will not be able to return to the sky, Liniang and the Helan family have married, even if I have a little soft in my hands, I will leave them to make a dowry, if it is true that one day in the future your brothers will be living on the streets, there is no problem to come back for dinner. ”

"Mother!" Yuan Shuang cried, probably thinking of the miserable situation of really living on the streets in the future.

"Don't cry!" Yuan Qing yelled, looking back at me with a cold gaze, "Mother, are you really not going back?" ”

"Do you want to force me to go back? Do you have what it takes? I looked back at him coldly.

"You ......"

"Yuanqing, how can you talk to your aunt?" Weiliang stood up again, "Auntie, Yuanqing is a quick temper, and besides, he is still young, and there will always be some small mistakes when he hands over such a big family to him all of a sudden, in general, Yuanqing is actually doing well, auntie, don't listen to the wind and rain." If the aunt still has to stay in the mountains for a few days, and the juniors don't dare to force it, then we will come back in a few days. ”

"No more!" I smiled, thought about looking at the house, and seemed to say to myself, "Although this house is not big, it should be painted again, sister-in-law Xiang, Ming'er will invite a craftsman to come, it will save two days for Lord Helan to come, it is too shabby." ”

"Yes!"

I saw that Weiliang, who was about to leave, paused, and I smiled slightly.

The next day, I sent my mother-in-law and my fine soft back to my mother's house, and by the way, let the children stay at my mother's house for two days, I took my mother-in-law to go to Daye Temple again, my mother-in-law felt a little strange, but she didn't ask, and I didn't want to say, but in the evening, Uncle Xiang sent someone to report that my house on the mountain was burned. Fortunately, Uncle Xiang was at home, so he quickly extinguished it, but still burned part of it. My mother-in-law finally understood why, I didn't say anything, I stayed quietly in the temple, and let Uncle Xiang and his wife repair the house.

When General Helan gave the dowry gift, what he saw was my miserable courtyard, and when Uncle Xiang took us home, General Helan was already mad, "Madam, such a son, does Madam still have to defend it?" ”

"General!" I sighed and was about to say something. Li Niang came out with tea, I looked at Helan Gongzi, fifteen years old, he seemed to be a little sick, but he was also clear-eyed, he also peeked at Li Niang, saw that I was looking at him, blushed, and lowered his head again; Li Niang peeked and walked back to the house. I couldn't help but smile, "Childe is really handsome." ”

"Alas, it's all used to his mother, the old man is fighting outside, but I didn't expect to raise a son into a girl!" He waved his hand, as if he was dissatisfied, "Madame too, why let that son of a son run rampant?" ”

"That, that, it's not necessarily them, this ......"

"Madame still wants to cover up for that kid? Come on, send someone to tie up that kid, I don't want evidence! He slammed the table, and the two sergeants ran out, I sighed, found some other topics, and exchanged the book of Wending, and the relationship between the two families was settled, and I saw that the prince of Helan showed a little joy. It seems that he is very happy, alas, although he knows that Liniang is widowed early, but this boy seems to be very pure, and he should be very happy.

"Childe, my father and my father-in-law are both from the army, you want to inherit the heroic style of your father!"

"Madame, rest assured, the old man has reported to His Majesty and asked him to enter the army for a few years of training, and he will never lose Brother Wu and the people of the Helan family." General Helan said immediately, and patted the child's back vigorously, I look at the child's face, alas! With such a father, it seems that it has been difficult for him in the past few years.

was chatting, Yuan Qing had been tied up, Yuan Shuang followed behind and cried while walking, and when he saw me, he pounced again: "Mother! ”

I had no choice but to hold him up, wipe his face with a handkerchief, and coax him.

This time, General Helan was going crazy, "What are you crying about?" Madam, this kid is worse than me, why don't you let me take it away and have a good experience! ”

"You're welcome, Shuang'er is still young." I smiled dryly and gently covered Yuan Shuang's mouth. Yuan Shuang was smart this time, and immediately stopped crying, but the tears were still in his eyes.

"General!" The sergeant threw Yuan Qing on the ground and looked at Helan.

"Don't ask anything, let's hit twenty sticks first!" Helan didn't raise her head, took a sip of sencha, and nodded: "Madam, did the young lady make this herself?" ”

I looked at the thick military stick, and I didn't have time to answer him, so I said hurriedly, "General, this twenty military sticks are too ...... It's ......"

"Then, fifteen strokes are fine, and Madame should stop pleading." He gave his son a bowl of tea, "Your daughter-in-law made it, it tastes good?" ”

I could only see Yuan Qing being beaten to the ground, and he fainted from crying, alas! Although I don't like him, it's not a taste to see him beaten like this. Finally waited until the fight was over, and Yuan Qing seemed to have only one breath left.

"The general is done."

"What do you mean that the general is finished? General, did I hit him? Won't speak. Big young master, wake up? That one...... Get a bucket of water! He pointed to the sergeant who couldn't speak, I couldn't, let go of Yuan Shuang, went over to wake up Yuan Qing, and looked at Helan.

"General, he's still a child, you start fighting without asking anything, what should you do if you break someone?"

"Madam, please rest assured, just lie in bed for half a year, and my subordinates have accurate heads on their hands." He raised his foot and woke Yuan Qing up, "Boy, if you don't give your father and mother face, Lao Tzu will beat you to death for nothing." Say, what do you want to do? ”

"What do you want to do?"

"What do you want to do? Are you saying that Lao Tzu forced you? He was about to step on it again, and I stopped at once, and he stomped his foot.

"The villain asked his mother to go back, but she refused to ......," he said weakly and aggrievedly.

"If she won't let you burn her house? What if someone is hurt? You wolf-hearted thing. He roared.

"Tiny ......"

"What's small, hurry up, what do you want to do?"

"The villain is no longer separated, please ask the general to call the shots and invite his mother to go home and preside over the overall situation." He said as he gritted his teeth.

"Humph!" Helan glanced at him and looked back at me, "Madam, just look at the old ...... Husband has a face, although I went back to the house to embarrass Mrs., but I saw that you kid couldn't get out of bed for half a year, you have to go back to preside over the overall situation, no, split the family or something, he said, it's not like that, my Tang Dynasty governs the country with filial piety, how can I be separated from the widowed mother, Your Majesty was very unhappy that time. By the way, the queen invites you to enter the palace for a while. ”

"Into the palace?" I was stunned for a moment, I thought he was joking, but he shook his head, took out a simple seal from his arms, I opened it, and pulled out a piece of hardboard paper, with delicate plain flowers, a standard small block in one hand, to be honest, if it wasn't for Helan to mention, I didn't expect this to be the handwriting of the eldest grandson. Because this word is so positive, it looks like it was carved out of the calligraphy, and there is no personality at all.

"Ma'am?" Helan seemed to see that I wasn't looking at the invitation, but just looking at the letterhead.

"Oh, the queen asked me to be free to enter the palace for a while, and I didn't specify a time, please tell the mother that the concubine will settle down at home and then enter the palace to pay respects."

"Madame upset?"

"Flattered!" I smiled, I didn't expect this to happen, what? What did the queen do with her? Sent Helan away, asked Uncle Xiang to send Yuanqing home, and asked a doctor, we still stayed on the mountain for the time being, I have to think quietly.

Sitting alone in front of Shi Tong's grave at night, I asked softly what to do, but no one answered me, leaning against the mound, thinking about the lonely coffin under the mound, I sighed softly, maybe I had to face it. What if you don't face it? People are invited, but if you don't go, aren't you looking for death? I suddenly found that I was more and more afraid of death, yes, I think about the insignificance of people, often people say that history is created by people, of course this is true, but this person is not the other person, the people there refer to the people, not the individual. The role of the individual in history is actually very small, it is not people pushing history to walk, but history sweeping people away with its open mouth, and everything becomes involuntary, and I understand this too well, so I am cautious but still can't escape, so okay, try to survive, and make yourself as comfortable as possible.
