Chapter 700: Voluntary?

When Xing Wei heard this, his face immediately turned pale, stared at Chen Shao's back for a moment, and suddenly smiled: "The master is noble and has his own opinions, but why follow in the footsteps of others?" ”

The sound was silent, but it was sharp and gloomy, and when it reached the ear, it was uncomfortable like a needle.

He smiled coldly, took two steps forward, and continued in a suppressed voice: "The master said to go, but he also said that everyone is willing, and they can go or stay." Then the old man is the master of the world and the immortal in the sky, so why should Baba follow him? I am sincere, that is on the bright side, heaven and earth can be expressed. What about you? It's not the same as the outside, but it's just a villain's behavior. ”

Chen Shao's footsteps stopped slightly, but he didn't look back, only Shi Shiran flicked his sleeves and left the last words: "The gentleman is harmonious but different, and the gentleman is the gentleman?" ”

Before the words were spoken, a white robe had already drifted away, and on the hidden path, only the bamboo shadow shook the wind, and there was no trace of people.

Xingwei stood in place in a daze, and the phoenix tail cast a thick shade, reflecting his face more and more dimly, and even his eyebrows and eyes were blurred.

After a few breaths, he sighed and walked slowly forward with a slow pace.

The wind of late spring is blowing, gentle and warm, blowing through his slightly clumsy figure, blowing through the deep forest of secluded paths, inexplicably, it is a little vast.

This scene in the bamboo forest is not known, just like the oath of "there will be no negative side" on the bamboo bridge, and it is also between the flowing water stream bridge.

The days passed slowly, and soon it was the time for the three dynasties to return to the door.

Pei Shu loaded the whole car to return to the door and returned home with Chen Ying.

That day coincided with a break from home, and Chen Shao was also at home, so he took the opportunity to see the ceremony, so he told the two of them about his resignation.

"Because of the headache, I don't always feel good, and I always feel incapable of doing errands, so I have idyllic thoughts." Chen Shao said, and immediately looked at Pei Shu, his cold eyes, such as a sword: "The virtuous son-in-law has always been broad, and he must not be embarrassed by these little things, yes or no?" ”

Once Chen Shao resigned, Chen Jun was the only one in the Chen family to serve in the Hanlin Academy, and the weight of Chen Ying, the married girl's family, was immediately lighter.

Generally speaking, once a woman becomes a wife, if her mother's official position is not high, her position in her husband's family will be affected accordingly.

Chen Shao's words are exactly what he meant.

Pei Shu hurriedly stood up, tied his hands and said in a deep voice: "Although the son-in-law is not talented, he is by no means a person who is greedy for fame and fortune, no matter whether the father-in-law is in the court or the opposition, the son-in-law's heart for Aman will never change." ”

Chen Shao's eyes were fixed on him, and after a long time, a faint smile appeared on Qinghe's face: "Okay, I know." ”

That's it, nothing else.

As for Chen Shao's resignation, it was also put on hold, and no one mentioned it again.

Until after the family banquet, Chen Ying accompanied the Li family back to Linshui Zhaohua to talk, the two sat by the window to eat tea, she asked leisurely: "Mother, listen to the meaning of my father's words, after resigning, he doesn't want to stay in the capital, he must return to his hometown." What about the mother? ”

"I'm going to go back to my hometown with him." Li Shi said softly, raised his hand and touched Chen Ying's hair, and said reluctantly: "Only me and your father are leaving, and there are only your brothers and sisters left in this capital, you have to take care of yourself, and if there is anything, you will go to find Jun'er, you know?" ”

Chen Ying nodded, was silent for a moment, and then asked, "Do you want your mother and father to go back to Xuzhou directly, or do you want to go elsewhere first?" ”

Due to the division of the two prefectures, Chen Shao also got a hundred hectares of fertile land under his name.

However, the grandfather of the old country, Chen Fu's ancestral hometown, Huguang, and Chen Shao wanted to be an independent ancestral hall, so when the property was dissolved, the Guogong Mansion gave Chen Shao the acres of land in Xuzhou Mansion in Sichuan Province that he had placed in the early years. Since then, Xuzhou Mansion has been the ancestral home of the Chen family.

Hearing Chen Ying's question, Li's expression froze, and he smiled again: "What your father means is that there is nothing to do after resigning, and that Zongtian also has a capable steward to guard, and it is not bad, it is better to take advantage of our legs and feet to give it back and take a look around."

Take a look and take a break. ”

Quite a reasonable argument.

Chen Ying said "um" lightly, picked up a thumb-sized Qingtian jade carved peony on the case, played with it in his hand, and after a long time, Fang asked softly: "What about the mother, the mother also followed her father to walk around?" ”

"That's natural." Li replied with a smile, looking at Chen Ying's sight, he felt a little more pity and reluctance: "Your father is an official who resigned because of his poor health, if he is alone, my mother is not at ease, I must always look at your father with my own eyes." ”

She gently hugged Chen Ying's shoulder, and in her soft voice, there was melancholy, nostalgia, and affection: "You also know, your father was seriously injured before, forgot his parents' hometown, and lived in Linjiang Mansion to repair the dam, and never returned for eight years. My son, my mother's eight years are really ......"

She let out a long sigh, did not continue the preface, took a few breaths, and then turned the conversation around: "In short, my mother has to walk with your father this time." Having said that, my mother still has something to tell you. The first case is this mansion. This is a gift from His Majesty, since your father has resigned from the official, presumably His Majesty will take it back, then we will return to the original place to live, and I asked Luo's mother to give it to you for a while. Jun'er doesn't care about this, you just keep it for him, and the next one, just those shops......"

She explained in detail, as if she couldn't arrange everything properly.

Chen Ying listened quietly, and when she finished speaking, Fang raised her head, her clean eyes fixed on her face, and she opened her lips and asked, "Mother, my daughter wants to ask you a question, and I hope you will tell the truth." ”

Seeing her solemn expression, Li also sat upright, and said with a smile: "Although my son asks, my mother knows everything." ”

"Is my mother willing to go?" Chen Ying looked her straight in the eyes.

A very abrupt question.

Li Shi looked at her in amazement.

"Did my father impose his intentions on my mother?" Chen Ying then asked, and between her light eyebrows and eyes, there was a sudden sharpness: "Or, did my father use other methods to make my mother have to agree to his proposal?" ”

"If it's any of these three situations, then my suggestion is that my mother can refuse." Chen Ying said the epilogue, her expression was calm and natural, as if it was the most common thing to say goodbye to the elders.

Li couldn't help but sit up straight, and said with a straight face: "I am willing to be for my mother, and no one is strong." ”

"Really?" Chen Ying asked softly and slowly lowered her head.

However, after a moment, she suddenly looked up again, and her eyes were already bent into crescent moons: "That's fine." ”

Seeing this, Li's heart suddenly soured, and his eyes turned red all of a sudden.

It's just that, thinking of Chen Shao's previous warning, she pressed down the sour Chu Qiang again, raised her hand to pretend to cover her sleeves, and tried her best to suppress the slight tremor in her voice: "My son, it's hard for you." ”

"Don't be embarrassed, as long as the mother is happy and happy, the daughter will be happy and happy." Chen Ying said calmly, with a smile on her face.

Li nodded, wanting to say something more, but his throat was already choked, and he couldn't make a sound, so he was silent.

These questions and answers are intended to be off-topic, although the mother and daughter have different thoughts, they also know each other.
