At the beginning of the lanterns, the moon hung coolly on the branches, clear and poignant.

The bamboo forest in front of Yaci's residence was very large, and it looked more and more quiet and cold in the hazy moonlight. The next person came to report that the lady had dinner at home early, and Luo Rongkai came back from the military headquarters earlier than usual. But when they entered the mansion, they only walked slowly along the path in the bamboo forest, and no one knew what Commander-in-Chief Luo was thinking.

After a while, He Xinwan was rewarded, and the person stood on the path at the end of the bamboo forest.

Luo Rongkai looked up and saw her, under the cool moonlight, she was wearing a gray-blue cheongsam, and a thick white fox fur jacket was worn outside. Standing there like jade, as if she had changed into her appearance.

The person is still the same person, but the years have carved her into a completely different woman from the memory.

In his life, in terms of feelings, he always seems to regret and always pursue. In the previous half of his life, he had missed the lives of two women, and in the second half of his life, he would not allow himself to be indebted.

He Xinwan slowly approached Luo Rongkai's side; "I'm back."

"Hmm." Luo Rongkai stretched out his hand towards He Xinwan.

The bluestone path with shallow moonlight, the two people holding each other, seem to have returned to the familiar bamboo garden town.

"I heard that you cooked yourself again today?" Luo Rongkai wrapped He Xinwan's hand in the palm of his hand.

"I haven't been drinking with you for a long time, and suddenly I want to drink." He Xinwan smiled, but she no longer had the hearty and unscrupulous impression in her impression.

"You're not in good health, just this once." Luo Rongkai's face tensed slightly.

"Just listen to you, let's go! The food and drinks have been heated several times. He Xinwan took Luo Rongkai and quickened her pace.

The maid had already complied with Ho Xinwan's wishes, arranged the meal in advance, and set it up under the plum tree in the West Garden of Yaci's official residence. There is a sheep's horn lamp hanging on the tree, and the white plums of the tree are very fond of it in the candlelight.

The wine on the stove is warm and hearty, exuding a mellow aroma. White water vapor curls out from the mouth of the pot.

"I'll respect you first." Luo Rongkai took the lead in picking up the wine jug on the stove, and wanted to pour it gently.

"No, it's me who respects you." He Xinwan got up and took the wine jug in Luo Rongkai's hand and poured wine for Luo Rongkai.

"It's all old husbands and wives, who respects whom?" Luo Rongkai lost the wine jug, just smiled dryly and sat back in his place.

"I'm about to become your wife, how about we treat each other as friends as we did when we first met in Zhuyuan, and drink this last drink?" He Xinwan's face gradually brought out some sharp smiles, as if she was saying something extremely happy.

"Xiaowan." Luo Rongkai was slightly stunned.

"Okay?" The smile on He Xinwan's face was still there, but her tone was a little pleading, and the corners of her eyes and eyebrows were gradually covered with a little bitterness.

"Xiaowan, it's me who can't stand your ......." Luo Rongkai lowered his head slightly, not daring to look at He Xinwan's face. The hand holding the wine glass didn't feel a little more strength.

"Shhhh He Xinwan quickly interrupted Luo Rongkai's words and picked up her wine glass: "Come, congratulations that under the command of Luo's second son, Jinyuan is thriving, and the country and the people are safe." ”

"Hehe, congratulations to Miss He on her upcoming promotion to the first lady of Jinyuan." Luo Rongkai raised his head again, and his smile had returned to his face, and the smile was even better than before, as if he had become a young man in his prime.

"Cheers." Under the plum tree, two lovers over half a hundred years old are like friends who have not seen each other for many years, pouring glasses and drinking with each other.

A gust of wind passed, and pieces of plum blossoms slowly fell from the branches and fell to the people under the plum trees.

Luo Rongkai twisted up a plum blossom that fell to He Xinwan's cheek, looked at He Xinwan in his arms who was gradually falling into chaos, and drank it alone.

"The wet suit is also your child, promise me to treat him well." The eyes of the person in his arms were cool, and he pulled the hand at the corner of Luo Rongkai's clothes, tight, tight.

Luo Rongkai had a headache in his heart, and he couldn't bear to look at it directly: "Don't doubt me about wet clothes." ”

"I don't doubt you, I only beg you this once." As He Xinwan spoke, tears suddenly fell from the corners of her eyes, and gradually disappeared into her sideburns.

Luo Rongkai only picked up his glass and didn't say anything.

The wine glass in his hand, the wine swayed violently.

Despite drinking a lot of alcohol, Luo Rongkai still got up on time and went out the next morning. The car left Yanci Road and did not go straight to the military headquarters, but got on the convergence road and headed towards Huiren's residence.

The car drove all the way into the Nanhu Road leading to Huiren's official residence, and the guards on both sides saw that it was Commander Luo's car, and they all straightened up their military postures and stood up to salute.

In the morning, the official residence seemed extraordinarily quiet, and above the South Lake on the side of the road, there was still a layer of mist, ethereal and quiet, like a soft light gauze thin tent. The maple and hibiscus trees by the lake were bare, looking old and hard in the morning mist. In the midst of the cold, the car soon arrived in front of the official residence.

The housekeeper seemed to have expected Luo Rongkai to come, and he was waiting outside the mansion early.

"Commander." The butler bowed slightly and made a gesture.

"Hmm." Luo Rongkai bowed slightly, and entered the hall.

Luo Rongkai glanced around, then frowned slightly and turned his face to ask the housekeeper: "Isn't Chuan'er already back?" ”

"Childe contracted a cold on the train, and lay down as soon as he came back yesterday." The butler explained resignedly.

Luo Rongkai rarely comes here, and the housekeeper is naturally afraid of him.

Luo Rongkai frowned again, turned around and went up to the second floor.

The commander and the butler hurriedly followed.

"It's just such a big place, don't follow it." As Luo Rongkai spoke, he went up to the second floor without looking back.

The second floor was empty, the hallway was carpeted, and the lights on the walls hadn't been turned off yet. At the end of the window, a pinch of light is clearer than the light on the wall. Luo Rongkai's steps were steady, pacing step by step, and stopped when he came to a door.

The carved wooden door was painted with a layer of white and shiny lacquer, and it was indescribably smooth and greasy when you touched it with your fingers. Luo Rongkai hesitated, did not knock on the door, but directly held the handle of the dark iron and unscrewed the door.

The room was quiet, and the air was filled with a faint fragrance.

Luo Rongkai raised his eyes to look at the bed, and Luo Chuanhua's side face was hidden in the white quilt.

With just this glance, Luo Rongkai never took his eyes off again. He walked slowly and gently to Luo Chuanhua's bed. The air seemed to slowly stagnate with his movements.

Luo Chuanhua didn't sleep well, frowning. In such a cold weather, there is still a fine layer of sweat on the head.

Luo Rongkai took out the handkerchief he was carrying, wiped Luo Chuanhua's sweat, just finished wiping, and took it back. I saw Luo Chuanhua on the bed suddenly startled and sat up from the bed suddenly.

"Wake up." Luo Rongkai calmly packed up his handkerchief and said in a deep voice.

"Father." Luo Chuanhua had just woken up from a nightmare, and his father's voice suddenly sounded in his ears, causing him to lose his mind slightly.

"It's better." The curtains had not yet been opened, and the room was gloomy. Luo Rongkai stood on the side of the bed and looked down at Luo Chuanhua, his face was hidden in the shadows, and he couldn't distinguish between joy and anger.

"It's much better, why are you here, I wanted to go to the mansion at night, so I can meet Aunt He." Luo Chuanhua wanted to get up, but was stopped by Luo Rongkai, so he lay on the edge of the bed, and spoke to Luo Rongkai with a very respectful and polite demeanor.

"You don't blame me." Luo Rongkai looked at Luo Chuanhua on the bed fixedly, as if he wanted to find some dissatisfaction on that face.

"Blame you? Which one do you mean? Luo Chuanhua's language is light, and he can't see any special emotions.

"Marry a new lady...... Assassination on the train...... Ignored you for decades. Luo Rongkai said very slowly, and it seemed that everything was extremely difficult to speak.

"Marry a new lady, it's been so many years since your mother died, it's time for you to find a companion. Assassination, you can't control other people's selfish desires, besides, you've already taken precautions in advance, haven't you? As for your claim that you have ignored me for decades, in fact, you have given me far more than you know. So, I don't have anything to resent you. Luo Chuanhua said this, slightly panting.

"Your mother raised you very well." Luo Rongkai was slightly moved.

"But she never got what she wanted." Luo Chuanhua hadn't heard a word about his mother from his father's mouth for a long time, and he was slightly moved.

"She got it." Luo Rong's face did not change, and he said softly, and continued to sigh slightly.

Luo Chuanhua looked at him in shock.

"Your mother has such a strong personality, and I know that she desperately wants you to succeed as commander. If you don't have a heart, you can still be up to the task with a little sharpening of your talents and virtues. Luo Rongkai said slowly, as if chatting about ordinary household routines.

"Father, I have failed the high expectations of you and your mother." When Luo Rongkai mentioned "the heart is connected", Luo Chuanhua's face turned red and gradually lowered his head.

"You have no intention of being in this position, wet clothes are not a good candidate, you won't blame your father for favoritism!"

"How come, my father was first the commander-in-chief of Jinyuan, and then Chuanhua's father. Besides, I also think that Big Brother is a good candidate. Luo Chuanhua's words came from the bottom of his heart and were affectionate.

"It is very gratifying for you to think so." Luo Rongkai smiled slightly, with a look of joy on his face.

"After attending your wedding, I may not be able to return to China for a long time, you have to take care of yourself." Luo Chuanhua frowned slightly, full of apologies.

"It doesn't matter, there are a lot of people around me all day long, and there is no shortage of you, I am happy to see you do what you like. Wan'er is not in good health, you and her go out, you have to cherish it.

"Yes, thank you, father." Luo Chuanhua nodded solemnly, and his body trembled uncontrollably.
