Chapter 391: News
Thinking like this, Sanniang couldn't help but change her opinion of Mrs. Wang.
I used to think that Mrs. Wang only cared about the "big and small wives" he raised, and their children and grandchildren were not even as good as a bird in his eyes. As we see today, this is not the case.
Sanniang thought so, and the old lady Wang woke up loudly next door, and said vaguely: "By the way, don't forget the nine-colored bird you promised before, you must see it before I leave Beijing." β
Sanniang: "......"
Wang Zheng: "......"
Li's side hurriedly promised: "Don't worry, remember." I have already sent someone to find the Duchess of Zhenguo, who owes our lord a great favor, and the Duchess of Guo has already responded, and in a few days I will have someone send the bird over. β
The old lady Wang was satisfied now, and laughed a few times.
At this time, someone outside reported that Wang Xian had returned.
The laughter of the old lady next door stopped abruptly as if someone had choked it off.
"I'm going to rest first, my darlings are hungry now, I'm going to have to feed them." Old lady Wang coughed lightly and was about to go out.
"Uncleβ"
As soon as Li Shi spoke, Wang Hong ran faster than a rabbit, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Li looked at the shaking curtain and couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly.
Sanniang and Wang Zheng, who were eavesdropping, glanced at each other, and the two kept their place very tacitly. When the people who were waiting for the room reported that the man had returned, the man had at least gone to the cloister next to the main courtyard. If you go out now, you will definitely be caught.
So the old lady Wang, who was shocked by Wang Xian's return, found himself tragic as soon as he came out. Wang Xian was only a dozen steps away from him.
Mrs. Wang saw Wang Xian. The first instinct was to run away. Only then did he quietly take a step to the side, and Old Lady Wang suddenly realized. I shouldn't have run away if I saw Wang Xian today. Why? Because today it was he who saved Wang Xian, a kid from the dire situation. He is Wang Xian's great benefactor! Where is there a benefactor who runs away when he sees the object of his favor? This is too shameless!
After some ideological struggle, the old lady Wang couldn't help but straighten her back and shake the hem of her clothes in a chic manner. Slanted in Wang Xian's direction.
Wang Xian naturally saw the actions of the old lady Wang as soon as he came in, and couldn't help but laugh. However, it was inevitable that the old lady Wang was furious, Wang Xian consciously restrained his smile, walked over respectfully, and saluted the old lady Wang.
"Brother, are you here?"
Old lady Wang suddenly felt that she had been too stupid before. Obviously, every time he saw Wang Xian, Wang Xian respectfully saluted him. Why did he run away first every time? The dignified old man greeted him, and he didn't take advantage of it. Bastard isn't it?
"Well, you're back from the next court?" Old lady Wang pretended to look at Wang Xiandao.
Wang Xian replied with a smile: "I heard that my brother is here, so I came back early today." β
Old lady Wang's vanity rose sharply, he heard Li say that Wang Xian has been very busy recently, and often goes out in the morning when the sky is still light, and he can't go back to the house until the lights are turned off late. The elder of the pavilion wants to go back early, then he has to get rid of the little brother who is doing the first and second and third grades underground!
So the old lady Wang was even more satisfied: "Well, you know the courtesy." That's right. That old man of yours helped you out. You don't have to be coerced by Lian Shuying's old ladies in the future. β
Wang Xian pretended to be puzzled and looked at the old lady Wang.
Old lady Wang glared at Wang Xian, and said impatiently: "That is to say, I gave birth to your son Laozi for you." I already have two grandchildren. β
ββ¦β¦β
The two were silent for a while, the old lady Wang was obviously still not used to dealing with Wang Xian, since the two of them became adults, they could count dozens of fingers when they spoke. Scratching his head, Mrs. Wang said, "Okay, Lao Tzu is going back to feed his son and grandson!" β
Wang Xian thought about it and understood that the "sons" that Mrs. Wang said were the flock of birds he raised. In order to shorten the distance between the two again, Wang Xian said funny: "Aren't you a big wife and concubine?" Why did he become a son again? β
glared at Wang Xian fiercely, and the old lady Wang pouted: "The son and grandson are missing by nearly half all of a sudden, and Lao Tzu can't be reluctant in his heart?" In the future, the mother is the wife and concubine, and the male is the son and grandson! β
ββ¦β¦β
Seeing the old lady Wang walking down the corridor with his hands behind his back, Wang Xian smiled bitterly. He remembered that since he was a child, he was not as good as him in terms of calculation, but he was always the one who ate deflated.
"Big brother, this time thanks to you." Although Wang Xian was helpless, he still shouted at the back of the old lady Wang.
Old lady Wang paused, waved her hand back in a chic manner, did not look back, and walked straight away.
Sanniang and Wang Zheng waited in the study for a long time and didn't see Wang Xian enter the main room, so they knew that Mrs. Wang and Wang Xian must have met outside. The two looked at each other with a wicked smile.
It wasn't until they heard Wang Xian enter the main room, and Li gave him warm tea, that the two got up and planned to quietly withdraw.
However, the conversation between Li and Wang Xian made Sanniang stop.
"Why did you come back so early today?"
"Recently, there have been several victories in the north, and the DPRK and China are arguing over whether to send more troops to pursue the victory, or whether it is appropriate to stop Chen Sheng's pursuit of peace. The matter in the east has slowed down, and the emperor sympathizes with me for not sleeping well for a few days, and specially asks me to come back and rest for a day. β
"Won the battle? That's good, that's good. Li said happily.
Obviously, Wang Xian's mood is also very good: "I heard the emperor say that this time we won the battle, and our third aunt has made a great contribution." β
"Xuan Shao?" Li Shi was pleasantly surprised, "Can he still lead troops to fight?" β
Taking advantage of the warmer weather, General Zhenbei led a large army to chase the enemy deep into Mobei. But the weather in the desert is ever-changing, the army is almost annihilated, and Meng Baohu's attacks are too eager. Wang Xian shook his head and said.
Li Shi listened but disagreed: "If you scholars follow the way you scholars, it is estimated that you are still on the way to the northern frontier, and along the way, you are probably racking your brains to think about how to use your own literary style to write a long crusade book, so that the enemy will be frightened when he hears the wind, and as a result, people have already entered the house!" People who become generals naturally think differently from you literati. β
Wang Xian smiled bitterly and begged for mercy: "Okay, good, good, madam, you are reasonable, I am a scholar, I only talk about it quickly, okay?" β
Li smiled, gave the warm tea to Wang Xian, and asked, "So, in the end, it was our third aunt who turned the tide and rescued General Meng, who was eager for quick success?" β
Wang Xian took a sip of tea: "Xuan Shao is familiar with the environment of Beijing, and when he saw that General Meng had not returned for a few days, he took a team of men and horses to find him. What a big northern desert, he found someone by following the clues, you must know that the northern desert is windy and sandy, and it is difficult to leave traces. At that time, General Meng had already decided to kill all the war horses for blood. β
Li sighed: "This kid is really capable." β
Wang Xian laughed: "Of course, are you calm when he finds him all the way?" After the Mongols introduced Meng Baohu into the desert, they sent a large army of men and horses to cut off his back route. I want to wait for the army to be tired and run out of food, and come to catch turtles in an urn. Xuan Shao didn't know how many teams of Mongolian soldiers came to intercept him along the way, and there were less than a hundred people around him. β
Sanniang listened very nervously here, she didn't care what merit Xuan Shao could make, she just hoped that he would be safe and sound, and not even suffer a little injury.
Li Shi also asked a little nervously: "Then is he injured?" β
Wang Xian thought for a while: "There should be no serious injuries, are they lightly injured...... It's not clear. Fortunately, this child was smart, and after killing the first wave of Mongol soldiers, he changed their clothes and horses. He and many of his men spoke that way, and thus avoided many waves of men. β
Sanniang listened here, but her heart was hanging and she didn't put it down. Maybe it was a blessing to be on the battlefield and save his life, and he was not seriously injured, but Sanniang would still feel distressed by Xuan Shao's bleeding and injury. This feeling is not experienced by people who are not close to it.
Seeing that Li and Wang Xian had changed the topic elsewhere, Wang Zheng gently tugged at Sanniang's sleeve and motioned her to leave the study. Sanniang came back to her senses, nodded at Wang Zheng, and the two walked out quietly.
When he got outside, Wang Zheng saw that Sanniang's face was still a little bad, and he couldn't help sighing: "Look at you, people must cry with joy when they hear that their husband is gone, where is it like you?" It's like losing a battle. You must know that meritorious service is equivalent to being promoted to a knighthood, and your grade will be promoted. β
Sanniang said seriously when she heard this: "What about you, auntie?" Are you willing to give your husband the glory that he bought with his life? β
Wang Zheng didn't expect Sanniang to ask this, she was not married yet, so she was inevitably a little embarrassed. Still, she kept her head down and thought about the question carefully. Both of them fell silent.
In the middle of the sound, Wang Zheng raised his head and said affirmatively: "I'm not happy either, whether it's my future ...... Husband, neither the pretend nor the people close to me want them to be injured and die because of this. I'd rather not be commanded. β
Sanniang nodded: "That's it, that's how I feel now." Nothing is more important than his safety. β
Sanniang has always said such explicit words in front of others, Wang Zheng just wanted to make fun of her, but when she saw Sanniang's serious expression, she couldn't say anything.
She was a little stunned, not knowing what she was thinking.
The catkins floated from somewhere, landed between the hair of Sanniang and Wang Zheng, and accidentally floated to the nose, and it would itch lightly.
It's springβ
