Chapter 22: Rain and Snow (2)

In the early morning of the next day, the heavy rain did not stop, and Sun Ce's 20,000 elite soldiers braved the rain to march to Huiji County. Zhou Yu rode his horse to send him off, and he did not return until thirty miles outside the city. Da Qiao was unwell and could not go along, so he sat alone in the living tent in a daze.

Xiao Qiao brought the soup and said to Da Qiao: "Sister, brother-in-law is brave, and there are many people under the account, I will definitely be able to fight the meeting and return safely." Why don't you eat something, even if you don't care about yourself, you have to think about the doll in your belly. ”

Da Qiao really didn't have an appetite, but thinking of her and Sun Ce's child, he had to take the bowl and gently stir it with a spoon to dissipate heat.

Xiao Qiao relieved his heart and knelt beside Da Qiao: "My sister has a child, which is obviously a good thing, but I don't dare to let the child's father know, it's really embarrassing." But my brother-in-law looks like a ghost on weekdays, but I didn't expect to be so stupid in this matter, and I get along with my sister day and night, and I didn't even notice it......"

Da Qiao smiled and sighed: "Sun Lang has never been a father, so naturally he doesn't understand. Moreover, when my belly was bigger, I wrapped it in a strap, and called it sickness and avoided him, how would he know? ”

"That's right, but, sister, let's not go back to Wancheng, if there is really a good one on the road, brother-in-law shouldn't go crazy. It's not convenient here, we can go to Wu County, you are now Sun Bofu's daughter-in-law, if Mrs. Wu knows that you are pregnant, she will definitely be very happy, and my sister can also be well taken care of......"

Da Qiao's face was full of sorrow, covering his lower abdomen and said: "I have also thought about whether to go to Wujun's mother-in-law to recuperate, but if I go to my mother-in-law's place, Sun Lang will definitely know that I am pregnant, how can I be a good soldier?" What's more, I secretly married Sun Lang, and the woman's birth was very quiet, if Yuan Shu got the news, I was afraid that I would have to take my father hostage. Wan'er, my sister has no way out now, only to go back to Wancheng's hometown to give birth, if you don't want to go with me, I can only set off by myself. ”

"Wan'er will always accompany her sister", listening to Da Qiao's words, Xiao Qiao no longer persuaded and put her little head on her shoulder, "My sister has a child now, but her body is thinner than before, I feel really distressed to look at it." Later, I'll go up the mountain and catch some pheasants to make up for you. ”

"You are a girl's house, don't run around, last time I heard that you fell from Huashan Cliff, I almost didn't scare me to death. My sister is fine, she lost weight just because she couldn't eat before, and my appetite is much better now, so you don't have to worry. ”

Xiao Qiao nodded obediently, and helped Da Qiao get up and sit back on the couch: "But sister, although my brother-in-law is on the expedition now, Zhou Lang is still guarding Danyang, he will definitely not let us go, how can we go back to Wancheng?" ”

Xiao Qiao's concerns are also what Da Qiao is worried about, if she tells Zhou Yu that she is pregnant, Zhou Yu will definitely not let her go. In any case, he couldn't give birth to this child in the army, Da Qiao frowned and said, "I don't have an idea now, let me think about it again." ”

"Sister, don't worry about it, Wan'er go and find a way, you eat the soup and rest early", Xiao Qiao took back the soup bowl, blew it carefully, and fed it to Da Qiao spoonful by spoonful.

After waiting for Da Qiao to rest, Xiao Qiao quietly walked out of the living tent, wanting to find Zhou Yu. Yesterday because of Changmu Xiu's matter, Zhou Yu seemed to be a little angry, Xiao Qiao was helpless and aggrieved, and his mind was upset.

Zhou Yu always said that Changmu Xiu was not a good person, but he didn't say what was wrong with him or how he was bad. Xiao Qiao didn't see anyone all day long, and no one played with her, she was very bored, and finally Changmu Xiu came, she just went out with him, how did she make Zhou Yu angry? Changmu Xiu's thoughts, she does know, although she explicitly hinted that she had rejected him many times, but she couldn't ignore the young Changmu Xiu's life-saving grace, he was abducted that year, if he hadn't blocked the door, Xiao Qiao would not have escaped from the devil's cave, and he might even have been dead for a long time. Although Xiao Qiao didn't have any love for Changmu Xiu, he couldn't ignore their childhood friendship and reject people thousands of miles away.

Thinking about it, Xiao Qiao had already walked to the door of Zhou Yu's tent. If it weren't for Da Qiao today, she wouldn't want to come to Zhou Yu at all, but without his token, it would be difficult to get out of the barracks, and she wouldn't be able to return to Wancheng at all.

Just for the sake of his little nephew who he hadn't met yet, Xiao Qiao settled down and said to the guards outside the tent: "I want to see Lord Zhou, and I'm tired of spreading the word." ”

In the tent, Zhou Yu was reading the file sent by Zhang Zhao in the tent, and when he heard Xiao Qiao's voice, he put down the scroll and said loudly: "The heavy rain has not stopped, there is no need to report, come in." ”

Xiao Qiao opened the curtain in response, and when he saw Zhou Yu, he was still a little uncomfortable. Zhou Yu saw Xiao Qiao stunned and poked, and beckoned: "Miss Xiao Qiao came to find Zhou, but what are your orders?" ”

It was cold, Xiao Qiao only felt the coldness rising from the soles of his feet, but he didn't know whether it was because of the weather or Zhou Yu's attitude. He is always like this, sometimes he feels a little closer to him, but suddenly he is estranged, like a cloud, which makes people unable to see and understand. Although Xiao Qiao is used to it, she still can't help but feel uncomfortable, she was silent for a moment, trying to stabilize her mood: "I am bored on weekdays, and I have nothing to do, I want to ask for a waist card, and I can often go out of the camp to play......"

"Mountain bandits and rogues are prevalent, and it is not safe for Miss Xiao Qiao to go out alone, so it is better to stay in the camp."

Although he expected that this brand was not good, Xiao Qiao still lost his temper when he heard this: "I said, are you unreasonable?" I'm not a prisoner, so why aren't I allowed to go out? I'm suffocating to death. ”

Yesterday, because of Changmu Xiu's matter, he was indeed a little harsh on Xiao Qiao, Zhou Yu regretted that he shouldn't be, and seeing that she was angry at this time, he couldn't help but slow down his tone: "I just hope that you can be safe and smooth, and I have no other intentions." If Miss Xiao Qiao feels bored, you might as well pretend to be a soldier and accompany me out of the city to see the soldiers' drills, how about it? I go there once every three days, and I have to look at the four barracks in the east, west, south, and north, and I shouldn't let you get bored. I'll leave in a moment, so let's go together." ”

Unexpectedly, Zhou Yu was not only angry, but also spoke to her so softly, and promised to take her to see the soldiers' drills. Xiao Qiao was stunned for a while, and the ghost replied in a daze: "Ah, that's okay, but I'm still ......."

Before Xiao Qiao could say this, he heard Lu Meng's anxious shout outside the door: "My lord, my lord, Juchao has something important to report!" ”

Zhang Zhao opened a soldier's academy here, and Lu Meng was deliberately left to study because he was illiterate, and he never went to Huiji with Sun Ce.

Zhou Yu's expression was solemn, Huo Di stood up, stepped forward and lifted the curtain: "What's wrong?" Could it be that the Shanyue bandits have come down again? ”

"No...... No, it's Madame's grave, and Madame's grave has been dug up......"
