The General's Mansion is also the Northwest Military Administration, covering a large area, is a three-entry courtyard, and there is a large garden at the back. The front is the official office, which is the place where Yang Che receives people to deal with military affairs, and the back is the living place.

Yue Niang accompanied Tan Yin to survey the entire house, the new house is located in the middle of the Sanjin Courtyard, and Yang Che's study is located in the middle of the Erjin Courtyard.

"Hou Ye's study is the most important thing in the house, Hou Ye often receives trusted people here, and ordinary people are not allowed to enter." Yue Niang smiled.

Tan Yin looked at the study and walked to the back garden, the little maids and maidservants she met along the way all held their breath, and their behavior was extremely polite, which showed that the two housekeepers taught well.

The back garden is quite large, different from those exquisite and beautiful gardens in Suzhou and Hangzhou, simple and natural, with a unique northwest style.

"This garden has been abandoned for a long time before, but this time the Hou Ye asked Uncle Chen to clean it up, arrange these flowers and strange stones, and repaint this pavilion."

Tan Yin saw that the whole garden was not luxurious, except for some colors of flowers and plants, the pavilions, tables and chairs, paths, and flowing water were extremely simple, and the color was also dark, with the green of the trees everywhere, the gray of the bluestone slabs, and the pavilion was also dark vermilion.

Tan Yin was surprised: "This garden is so simple and elegant, I remember that the gardens in Shangjing are generally more delicate and luxurious?" ”

Yue Niang said with a smile: "It has always been rumored that Hou Ye likes luxury, and he is more luxurious in Shangjing. But in Hexi, Hou Ye's clothes are not dyed with spices, the color is also dark, dark and black, and the cloth is not valuable, and the utensils and accessories used are also very simple. ”

Tan Yin remembered that when he saw Yang Che in Shangjing, his clothes and accessories were extraordinary, but in Hexi, it was really ordinary, maybe it was the frontier, he led the troops to fight, and he wanted to lie down with the soldiers!

Yue Niang said some other affairs, and for most of the year in Hangzhou, Tan Yin learned a lot from Yan Min, and she was quick to get started with the situation in the house.

……

In the evening, Yang Che finally came back, and Yang Wu came to invite Tan Yin to the study.

Yang Che's study is both civil and military, there is a whole bookcase on the north side, there are thousands of books in it, and the middle desk and chair are separated by a tiger snow mountain screen, the west wall is hung with a sword, and the east wall is equipped with a couch.

He was sitting in a chair reading the official document, and when he saw her come in, he put down the official document in his hand, stood up and walked towards her.

He took her hand and turned the screen to the bookcase in the back. Tan Yin glanced at it cursoryly, there were not only Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism classics, but also poems, books, rituals and music of various dynasties and generations, as well as many military books.

Yang Che took her to stop in one place, and there were not only Zhao Zhao's Zhiwei novels, all kinds of travelogues, anecdotes, and a row of foreign language books, but it seemed that there was more than one kind of text, and I didn't know what it was.

Tan Yin was surprised: "Are you still proficient in the Western Regions?" ”

"There are many countries in the Western Regions, ranging from large countries thousands of miles wide to small countries tens of miles, with thousands of languages and hundreds of languages. I learned the two of the most talked, and I could only simply read the book and talk, not be proficient. Yang Che said with a smile.

Tan Yin's eyes widened, revealing a look of adoration, "I always thought you would fight!" ”

Yang Che has outstanding martial arts and is famous for his martial arts, and everyone in the world has such an impression.

On the one hand, Yang Che was very impressed by his newlywed wife's adoring eyes, but on the other hand, he felt that she still knew too little about herself.

He laughed and said, "Have you forgotten who went to your house to propose, who is he?" ”

Tan Yin looked at the rows of classics, and remembered that the post station first saw him with poetry, he apprenticed to Fang Cheng at the age of seven, and only changed to martial arts at the age of fifteen, speaking of which, he has studied literature for longer than he has been practicing martial arts.

"Then you can't blame me, you have a few poems that have been handed down, but ......" Tan Yin joked.

He did have a few poems reciting Chulou Geji, which were widely circulated and won a few lucky names.

"Why, I'm jealous!" Yang Che laughed.

Tan Yin found that he liked to tease himself very much, and replied with a smile: "I don't have a green waist to dance in the city, and I don't have the ability to be jealous." ”

"Although her dance is a must, it is for everyone to see, but you are only me."

Those starry eyes looked at him deeply, as if they could see the sky full of stars.

She had never been able to stand his eyes, and it seemed as if she was willing to do anything as long as she looked at her.

"I finally understand that you've been tempting me?" Tan Yin suddenly realized.

"How did I tempt you? He smirked.

"You, you rely on yourself to look good...... she said with a smile on the corner of her eyebrows.

"Then you think I'm not good-looking?" The corners of his mouth were lightly hooked, and the corners of his eyes were slightly hooked, which was really terrible.

Here it is again, Tan Yin said angrily: "I can't talk about you." ”

Yang Che saw her smiling happily, but the center of her words was full of leaks, her heart fluttered, she lowered her head and kissed her, her lips and teeth were close to each other, and her heart was imprinted, Tan Yin unconsciously wrapped her hand around his back and hugged him.

After a long time, Yang Che let go of her, Tan Yin's cheeks turned crimson, and she turned her head.

Yang Che also slowly calmed down, hugged her and whispered, "It won't hurt tonight." ”

Tan Yin buried her head in his chest and stopped talking.

Yang Che laughed and rubbed her back.

……

"You asked me to come and pick up a book?" After a long time, Tan Yin thought of the purpose of coming today.

"Well, what do you like to watch?"

"I like to read travelogues and novels. I just bought Jian Da Xufang's Travels in the Western Regions, and I don't know how many times I have read it. ”

When Yang Che heard this, he raised his eyebrows, "I like it very much?" ”

"Well, it's funny, I've heard that in the summer, when it's hot, you can cook an egg outside the house, but it feels weird to say it's cool under the tree."

"That's right, the climate of the Western Regions and the Central Plains is very different." Yang Che smiled, "Xu Fang is in Liangzhou." He has been to the Western Regions twice, and this time he joined the army with me. I have been to the north and south of the river, and I have been to all parts of the border and the Western Regions, and there are countless stories and stories. ”

Tan Yin looked at him in surprise and asked with anticipation, "Then when can I go to Liangzhou?" ”

"Soon, just wait for the Liangzhou Administration to be ready."

Yang Che recommended two books to her, one is a travelogue to the Western Regions written by a local person in Hexi, and the other is a folklore from the Northwest.

"This story is a household name in Hexi. There seems to be a legend in every place that a beautiful interracial girl and her lover were in love, but they were snatched away by a landlord bully, and then everyone rebelled, and the landlord was severely punished, but both of them died. Yang Che pointed to one of them.

"Do you still read a script like this?" Tan Yin asked in surprise.

"Of course, it depends on these legends, which have been handed down to this day, and they contain the life emotions of the people in this land, what they like and what they dislike, and fighting is not just a simple battlefield fight."

Tan Yin didn't seem to understand what she heard, and looked at him suspiciously.

"Sun Tzu has a saying, go up to the army to fight, then attack the enemy, then attack the army, and attack the city." Yang Che explained.

"You're saying it's not enough to use soldiers, you have to know this place?"

Yang Che smiled: "Not only do you need to understand, but you also need to get their support." The Han people in Hexi have lived together with other ethnic groups for generations, and have experienced many wars, today they are still the citizens of Daxia, and tomorrow they are the people of Dazhao. I'll talk to you about it later. ”

Tan Yin remembered that her father had said that his use of soldiers was not different from ordinary people.

At this time, Uncle Chen asked outside the door, "Master Hou, dinner is ready." ”

"Okay, my wife and I will come later."

……

Dinner was placed in the west side of the main room, and it had already been set up when the two of them entered.

A plate of white-cut lamb, a large carp, a plate of fried melon vines, a large bowl of haggis soup, and a small bowl of cheese almond raisins.

Tan Yin saw mutton piece by piece, she has always eaten less meat, and when she arrived in the northwest, the mutton was fatty and the smell was not heavy, and she ate a lot of it, but she really had never eaten mutton in such a big bite.

Yang Che picked up a piece of mutton, sandwiched two garlic slices from a small plate, folded them and handed them to her, "Taste it, it's delicious." ”

Tan Yin shrugged her nose and said with a little disgust: "This tastes so heavy!" ”

"Just a little bit, we both eat it, and after eating, rinse our mouths with the ice leaf water here, and it won't taste good."

Tan Yin took two bites in disbelief, wow, it's delicious, why is the meat so tender and fresh, and the taste is even more prominent after adding garlic.

After eating one piece, she followed Yang Che's example and sandwiched the second piece and put garlic slices on it.

Yang Che smiled slightly, and gave her another piece of carp, "This is the big carp of the Yellow River, which is different from your practice, the whole fish is rotten even the bones." ”

Tan Yin tasted it again, and sure enough, even the bones were very crispy, and it was very delicious.

After eating some melon vines, drinking a small bowl of haggis soup, and finally a delicious cheese fruit, honeysuckle will definitely like it.

Seeing the way he looked when he was eating, for fear that she would not be used to the diet here, Tan Yin smiled: "The dishes here are delicious." ”

"There are better things to eat in the city, and I'll take you around when I'm done with this time." You can also go out for a walk yourself, don't get bored, just take Lian Sang with you. ”

Tan Yin glanced up at him, her eyes full of excitement. Yang Che looked at her like a child, and her heart was indescribably soft and comfortable.

Yang Che smiled and watched her eat cheese fruit, and said with a smile: "It's on the side of my mouth." ”

Tan Yin hurriedly stretched out her tongue and licked her lips, but she didn't lick it.

Yang Che's eyes were even deeper, and he reached out to wipe off the little cheese, but refused to leave after wiping it, gently touching her lips back and forth.

……

Honeysuckle was carrying a small bowl of white fungus longan soup, ready to be sent into the main house to Tan Yin, but was stopped by Yue Niang.

"Honeysuckle, don't send it today, eat it tomorrow, Hou Ye is also in the room."

"Why! It's still so early, this soup has to be drunk while it's hot, and my wife said that it's the most beautiful and nourishing thing, so I often make it for the girl. ”

Yue Niang whispered a few words to her, and Honeysuckle blushed and turned around and left.

Yue Niang had a smile on her face, looking at the full moon in the sky, so as to live up to the joy of the world!
