Chapter 267: My Cousin Returns

The shopkeeper's raised eyes secretly observed Chu Nian's complexion, and saw that Chu Nian did not show any abnormality, so he slowly breathed a sigh of relief, which at least proves that Chu Nian is capable of settling this matter, even if he offends the daughter of the prime minister of Western Chu today, there is also a Wushuang County Lord above, in this case, it is better to sell his goods to his own people, and the Wushuang County Lord is unwilling to pay attention to the people, why is he still afraid?

So, the shopkeeper was full of smiles: "The county lord can just give some broken silver, this dress is not a good product." ”

Chu Nian lifted the clothes and compared them with Mei Xiang's body, but did not speak.

But at this stall, the eldest lady who was ignored became uncomfortable, and seeing that no one paid attention to her, she hurriedly stepped forward and reached out to grab the dress: "I said that Miss Ben took a fancy to it first!" It's a big deal that I have a few extra taels of silver, which can be regarded as a great relief for your poor! ”

Chu Nian frowned slightly, but even the shopkeeper who was originally frightened was annoyed: "You go farther, although our store is small, we can't help you in the cold!" ”

The shopkeeper's demeanor got a glance of Chu Nian's appreciation, and he saw Chu Nian turn his eyes and look at the woman with burning eyes: "The daughter of the prime minister of Western Chu?" Since she is the daughter of the prime minister, why oppress me and the common people? It seems that your cool style is nothing more than that, and when I look back, I should have a good discussion with Her Royal Highness the Empress of Xichu about this matter. ”

"You ......"

"Liang'er, don't be rude, didn't my father say it, don't make trouble in Da Liang."

At this stall, a warm male voice sounded, and a handsome-looking man walked slowly from outside the door, dressed in a gauze dress that looked like a fairy wind and bones, but a little more arrogant, when he saw Chu Nian, his eyes sank slightly, and he said: "I have seen the unequaled county lord, the sister is not sensible, so the county lord is smiling." ”

Chu Nian raised his eyes, his gaze swept over the brother and sister silently, the two brothers and sisters looked very similar, but their temperament was completely different, and they looked like they were all the looks of a Da Liang person, could it be that the Prime Minister of Xichu was actually a Da Liang person?

"It's okay, it's just that on the land of Daliang, I also hope that the two Langjun ladies can be a little polite, otherwise I'm afraid that it will cause discomfort to the ordinary people of Daliang, and when the time comes, it will be troublesome."

Chu Nian looked at the man in front of her with a smile, she didn't ignore the dark glint that flashed in the man's eyes when he lowered his head, since your politeness is not sincere, then I'm sorry, I don't even want to pretend with you!

As soon as these words came out, the man's originally personable face also changed, but after a while, he regained his expression, grabbed his sister's hand and said, "The county lord said yes." ”

At this stall, I saw the woman crying: "What are you doing? Let me go! You rotten man who can't get married, don't stain Miss Ben's hands! ”

Chu Nian raised his eyebrows, and saw a flash of ruthlessness in the man's eyes, but he still coaxed patiently: "Okay, okay, eldest lady, let's go back to the house to find my father first, okay?" ”

"I didn't want to come to the place of Daliang, it was you and my father who had to come, but now it's okay, I came here with you, I'm afraid that my mother will be angry with me, and when the time comes, the title will also be passed to the second sister, and I will be nothing!"

Chu Nian looked sideways at the man's low eyebrows, and it was the first time that he had experienced the situation of Western Chu's women being inferior to men, but he didn't care too much, took the emerald green dress from the shopkeeper's hand, packed it, and dropped ten taels of silver casually, then turned around and prepared to go out.

The shopkeeper hurriedly chased after him with the silver: "County Lord, County Lord......"

"Where are you going? If you insult me, you dare to leave, but don't you take me Xichu in your eyes? ”

The man couldn't stop it, and the woman rushed over again, with that menacing appearance, which was quite a bit of a question about Chu Nian.

Chu Nian ignored her, and glanced at the shopkeeper sideways: "You will take the silver given to you, don't be afraid that someone will covet the silver in your hand, I don't believe it, who dares to rob things from my Daliang people under my nose?" ”

As soon as these words came out, the shopkeeper suddenly burst into tears, and when the woman heard this, her anger became more and more inflated, and she took a few steps forward and said, "What are you saying about Miss Ben?" I'm telling you! My mother will definitely call hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers to come to you to seek justice! Don't be complacent! Isn't it just a county lord......

At this point, a deep voice sounded: "Nian'er? ”

Chu Nian and Mei Xiang looked back together, facing a pair of big blazing eyes, at this moment those eyes were scanning Chu Nian inquiringly, and after a while, his eyes fell on the woman who was still thunderous, and he glanced at it without emotion, and suddenly there was a murderous aura, and the originally arrogant woman suddenly held back her words, and her figure flashed, and she hid behind her brother.

The man's gaze turned back to Chu Nian, "First time we met, I am your cousin, Chen Yue, the general of the Great Liang Hussars. ”

Chen Yue's eyes looked cold and ruthless, his burly figure made it almost impossible to recognize that he was a scholar, the armor on his body had not faded, and he looked like a dusty servant, as if he had just arrived home and was driven out.

Chu Nian's eyes lit up, and he saluted with a smile, "The third mother of the Chu family, the unequaled county lord, has seen my cousin." ”

The two reported each other's identities, but the other party had understood in advance what kind of confidence their brothers and sisters had, and they didn't feel anything, but as soon as these words came out, the opinions of others were different.

Listening to Chen Yue and Chu Nian's words, the man's face on the side suddenly changed, the prestige of the unequaled county lord is thanks to the credit of the great princess, the entire Western Chu is already clear, and they are not unaware of the barbarian border pass, but in contrast, the reputation of this hussar general is even more prestigious in Western Chu, not to mention anything else, this hussar general has been stationed at the junction of Western Chu and Da Liang, although there is no war, but many small frictions have also made the people of Western Chu look at Da Liang with admiration, Just now, his sister dared to report to others that there were 100,000 elite soldiers?

Under the hussar general, there are more than 200,000 elite soldiers!

At this stall, Chen Yue's eyes swept coldly over the man, and the man's face suddenly turned pale, and he immediately took a few steps forward regardless of his sister who was trembling with fear from Chen Yue behind him, and said politely: "I have seen the general, Xiaosheng Xi Chu Hongyi, and sister Xi Chu Liang, this is polite." ”

Chen Yue's eyes swept over Xi Chu Hongyi silently, but he didn't pay any attention to his meaning, and turned his eyes to look at Chu Nian: "Nian'er, we should go back, if it's a little later, I'm afraid my mother will blame me." ”

Chu Nian smiled lightly: "My cousin came early, and the pine kernel dew that my aunt asked for is in the west of the city, and I haven't gone yet, so I have been delayed by some things." ”

This "thing" is the brother and sister on the side, Chen Yue's sideways eyes swept over Xi Chu Hongyi, who was still bent over to face him, a trace of impatience flashed in his eyes, and he turned around and headed towards the west of the city: "Then let's go and buy it back first." ”

Chu Nian and Mei Xiang followed, but this time, they didn't take a second look at the brother and sister on the side.

After the cousins and sisters left, Xi Chuliang's courage seemed to return, looking at his brother who was still groveling in the face of Chu Nian's back, his face suddenly showed indignation: "You coward!" Other people's brothers are so imposing, you will only apologize, apologize, apologize, apologize! ”

Xi Chu Hongyi straightened up, ignoring the complaining sister beside him, and looked gloomily at the pair of brothers and sisters who were gradually moving away, but in a moment, his complexion returned to a spring breeze again.

He looked sideways and said softly: "After all, this is the other party's territory, we can't make trouble for our father and mother, can we?" ”

Xi Chuliang's face stiffened for a moment, and then he snorted coldly: "Father has a weak personality, and so are you!" Mother is not! Hum! ”

After saying that, she turned around, as if she had never put her brother in her eyes, and sadness flashed in Xi Chu Hongyi's eyes, and at the end, she had to sigh and chase after her.

Chu Nian and Chen Yue bought pine kernel dew together and walked back, many women passing by saw Chen Yue's handsome appearance and cold and arrogant temperament, and couldn't help but show shyness, Chu Nian and Mei Xiang couldn't help but secretly look sideways, at this stall, they saw Chen Yue looking straight ahead expressionlessly, "What, cousin, is this afraid that there won't be enough time to see my cousin?" ”

Hearing this, Chu Nian just smiled: "After all, my cousin's temperament makes people can't help but always want to take a few more looks." ”

Chen Yue hooked the corners of his lips without a trace, and at the end, his face returned to seriousness: "Go back today, I haven't seen my grandfather yet, do you know where the old man went?" ”

Chu Nian couldn't help laughing, shook his head lightly and said, "Grandpa seems to be haunted by the past, and he should come back later." ”

Chen Yue's face remained unchanged, but after a while, his voice was a little lower: "I heard that the old man is very dissatisfied with my martial arts, but I am afraid that I will fight when I see him again." ”

Hearing this, Chu Nian shook his head lightly, and said softly with his eyes: "My cousin is laughing, my grandfather is just worried that my cousin will be injured on the battlefield, and now that my cousin is famous, it is too late for my grandfather to be proud." ”

At the stall of speaking, the gate of the Chen family has arrived, compared to when Chen Yue was not at home before, at this moment, the door of the Chen family seems to be a little more guarded, and there are two neat rows of soldiers wearing armor at the door, seeing Chen Yue and Chu Nian coming, their voices are loud.

"Greetings to the general, the unequaled county lord!"

This voice startled Mei Xiang, who was following Chu Nian, and Chu Nian smiled and said, "Cousin is really a high-profile person. ”

Chen Yue's eyes flashed slightly, and after a while, he quietly said "um", walked towards the door, and when he reached the main hall, he heard the voice of Chen Lao in the room: "Stinky boy!" As soon as you come back, you will make trouble for Lao Tzu! There are so many people at the door, who would dare to come to my Chen family as a guest? The name of the dignified Chen family's century-old literati was ruined by such a reckless man! ”

Then came the uncle's slightly unconfident voice: "Father, isn't Yue'er coming back triumphantly, and it can be regarded as a meritorious contribution to Da Liang......

"Who does the old man say is the reckless man?"

Chu Nian didn't stop him, Chen Yue had already walked into the door, there was no fluctuation on his face, but the smile in his eyes couldn't be hidden, Chu Nian breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, thinking that this grandfather and grandson were both soft-mouthed people, they were clearly worried about each other, but they never said it in front of each other.

At this stall, Chen Yue walked into the house, the old man was sitting on the main seat and was furious, hearing Chen Yue's voice, his face was obviously stiff, and then, Chu Nian saw tears that seemed to flicker faintly from the muddy old eyes, and suddenly remembered that the two grandfathers and grandsons seemed to have not seen each other for a few years.
