453 Farewell 2
Since Xie Nanchuan was about to leave for the border at night, this meal could be said to be a send-off for him, and the atmosphere was very good when they were newly married and returned to Ningning, but this sudden state intrusion, the general was going to go on the expedition, and the atmosphere of this dinner was somewhat sad.
"Come on, come on, don't just sit, start eating with chopsticks, if you don't eat this meal, it's going to be cold." Xie Nanchuan saw that the expressions on their faces were not very good, and he couldn't help but say out loud.
Everyone present lowered their heads and did not answer, even the face of Lu Zhu, who was standing on the side and waiting, was not disfigured, and her eyes were even a little red and swollen, I was afraid that she had just cried.
Although Hongqiang was a little unclear, but seeing that the atmosphere was wrong, she didn't dare to look more, she glanced at the green beads, and saw that her expression was not good, and she didn't dare to ask more.
Xie Chuyao was the first to stand up with a wine glass, and said to Xie Nanchuan: "Father, this cup of Yao'er respects you, I wish you a victory, and drive those wolf cubs back." She said so passionately that Xie Nanchuan's eyes were a little moist.
"Okay, worthy of being my good daughter, this glass of wine, we did it!" As he spoke, he stood up with his glass, touched her forward, and then threw his head back and drank it down.
Xie Chuyao also wanted to follow her father's example and drink it all, but was stopped by Shang Jingcheng with his hand.
"I'll do it." He stood up and tried to snatch the glass from her, but she dodged him sideways.
She looked at him a little unhappily and said, "What do you mean, this is the wine I toasted with my father, what are you here to make a fuss?" It's not that I can't drink, I tell you, I'm not drunk for a thousand cups! With that, she drank it all in one gulp.
Shang Jingcheng looked at her strong appearance, and shook his head helplessly, okay, his own woman, no matter how she is, she has to be spoiled, isn't it?
The old lady saw that she was drinking too violently, and couldn't help but say with some worry: "Yao'er, you take it easy, drink so hard and choke!" She had never seen a woman drink as boldly as she did, and she really had the feeling of a heroine among women.
"Grandmother, it's okay, I'm going to finish it!" Xie Chuyao looked at her a little coquettishly and said.
"Girls' families, drink less in the future, you know?" The old lady couldn't help but lecture aloud, it is always bad for girls to drink, this is good to say, if you go outside and let people see it, I am afraid that they will say that they have no tutor in the general's mansion.
Xie Chuyao let out an "oh", and then made an oath and said, "Grandmother, grandmother, I don't drink it often, I swear, just drink less in the future." ”
When the old lady saw her smiling, she smiled helplessly, and couldn't bear to say anything more about her.
Xie Nanchuan looked at her with a smile and said, "It's better for girls to drink less." ”
"Yes, father, daughter knows." Xie Chuyao said, sticking out her tongue at him, her earlier worries and sadness were all covered by her, her father was about to go to war, all she could do was to see her off well, let him know that she would always believe in him.
"Okay, okay, let's eat, let's eat, don't be restrained, it's not too early!" The old lady said to everyone with a smile, in fact, she was also worried and sad in her heart, but this is a national event, where can she come up with an idea, she can only silently pray in her heart that he can return safely.
Hearing the old lady say this, everyone picked up the chopsticks to eat, only the fifth lady lowered her head with a sad face and didn't speak or move the chopsticks, it seemed that she was really worried about Xie Nanchuan.
"Don't be like this, it's not like I'm not coming back, can you be happy and everyone have a good meal?" When Xie Nanchuan saw her like this, he couldn't help but put down his chopsticks and said.
The fifth lady raised her head at this time, her face was already full of tears, she gritted her teeth and said, "Master, can you not go?" "Her heart is so uncomfortable.
"Nonsense, the country is in trouble, how can I ignore it, you don't want to say such things again." Xie Nanchuan's face sank, his voice also raised a lot, and his attitude towards the fifth lady was a little colder.
"I ...... Woo...... I don't want my child to have no father, sir, don't you go to war, okay? The fifth lady cried out loud as she spoke, but everyone present could hear what she said clearly, and it turned out that she was pregnant.
Xie Nanchuan also looked at her in surprise, and then took her hand in disbelief and asked, "What did you say?" You say we have children? "This old five has not been able to conceive for all these years, and he has not thought about it, he didn't expect to be pregnant so unexpectedly.
Only then did the fifth lady realize that she had accidentally said something wrong, she stopped crying, looked around at the people on the table, and saw that everyone was looking at her with a smile, and immediately lowered her head in embarrassment, and then nodded lightly and said, "Well, let the doctor come to check the pulse." ”
She wiped tears from her face and looked up at him with a smile.
"Quick, Yao'er, you go and check the pulse of the fifth child, take the pulse well." The old lady reacted and immediately said to Xie Chuyao, she didn't believe in the fifth lady, but she just believed in her granddaughter even more.
When Xie Chuyao heard this, she nodded, came to the fifth lady's side and looked at her and said, "Fifth lady stretch out your hand." "If she is really pregnant, she is also very happy, and there is a little one more in the family, who is not happy?
The fifth lady looked at her and did not hesitate to reach out and ask her to take her pulse.
She pressed her hand on her pulse, carefully diagnosed it for a while, the smile on her face gradually expanded, she nodded to her expectant father and grandmother and said, "Yes, I am pregnant, and the child's pulse is very stable!" ”
"Great, the fifth, great, ouch, our Xie family is finally going to add Ding again, come on, come on, the fifth, eat more, eat more!" The old lady smiled from ear to ear, and her original worry about Xie Nanchuan turned into joy.
Xie Nanchuan also took the hand of the fifth lady with a touched face, and the smile on his face couldn't be hidden, although he had a lot of children in his life, but since the second Xie Yiyu was disposed of, Xie Yueya and Xie Tianci both followed her mother back to her mother's house, originally thinking that Xie Tianci was the only male in the Xie family, and he also wanted to go over to take their mother back, but when he thought that the third lady took Tianci away and wanted to threaten himself to take them back, he held down the heart in his heart, if they couldn't go on, Naturally, I'll be back.
Now, the fifth lady is pregnant again, he really feels very moved, the fifth lady's physique has always been very good, but he just can't conceive a child, he didn't care much, he didn't expect to be pregnant all of a sudden, can he not be excited?
"Old five, listen to your mother more at home, take care of the baby, I will definitely come back victorious, and I will never leave home again." As he spoke, his hand tightened and tightened as he gave her a promise to settle down.
The fifth lady also knew at this time that it was impossible for this man to stay for her, and there were more important things to do in his life, so she didn't cry and annoy him anymore, but just nodded and said, "Okay, general, the child and I are waiting for you to come back, you must take care of yourself!" As soon as she said this, she was a little sad.
Xie Nanchuan comforted her for a while, then looked at everyone and said, "It's rare to be happy today, everyone let go of their arms and eat, don't be stunned, let's eat happily." As he spoke, he casually put a piece of braised pork ribs into the bowl of the fifth lady, looked at her and said, "Old five, eat more!" ”
The sadness on the fifth lady's face was finally lost by his heartwarming behavior, and she raised a smile and said, "Thank you, General! ”
Everyone looked at their husband and wife like this, and they all tacitly looked at their beloved, Si Hao glanced at the green beads with a smile on his face, but his eyebrows and eyes were full of sad green beads, and he couldn't help but leave the table and take her hand and sit down beside him.
"What are you doing, let go, I, I can't sit here." Lu Zhu was a little flustered and wanted to break free of his hand, but he grabbed her to death, she couldn't help but glance at Xie Nanchuan with some embarrassment, and her face was red.
Xie Nanchuan noticed Si Hao's movements, and his heart was clear, he raised his hand and called a slave maid, asked her to add a new bowl to Luzhu and said: "Since Si Hao asked you to sit, you can sit down and have a meal together, and it will be a family from now on, don't be restrained." He has always regarded Si Hao as a son, since he is the woman he fancies, even if he is a slave, it is enough for him to like it.
Lu Zhu was a little surprised for a moment, she didn't expect the general to leave her to sit here to eat, she was obviously just a slave, but he still let Si Hao do whatever he wanted, her heart was full of emotion, sure enough, the eldest lady's easy-going was with the general.
Si Hao glanced at her with a smile, and saw that she was still sitting there stiffly and didn't dare to move her chopsticks, so he couldn't help but put a number of dishes into her bowl and said, "Don't be nervous, let's eat, it's rare for us to have a meal together, isn't it?" The next time I come back, I don't know when it will be. At this point, his eyes were a little dark.
Lu Zhu's heart is also very sad, she picked up the chopsticks, stuffed her head to eat, he was right, this is a send-off dinner for him, she can't patronize and worry about being sad, she has to eat well, pray for her, he will definitely come back alive.
This meal went from the original atmosphere to the end of the meal in harmony, happiness, and comfort.
After dinner, Xie Nanchuan and Si Hao set off together, and in the dark night that gradually darkened, they headed towards the school training ground and set off as a whole army.
Xie Chuyao looked at the back of them leaving, and clenched her hands nervously, she was really worried about her father, and this worry was obviously revealed on her face.
"Yao'er, let's go back to the palace." Shang Jingcheng held her hand and said with a smile on her.
She looked sideways at him, relieved her nervousness, and said, "Let's go!" ”
