"My sister is asleep?" At the door, He Lin looked at Liulang with a concerned face and asked.

Liulang replied in a low voice: "She's too tired these days, let's eat lunch first, and I'll leave some extra for her." ”

"Just ask Chunhua to get it!" He Lin said briskly, "Liulang, don't go, I'll ask you something first......

The two men entered the empty hall one after the other, and after sitting down, Rokuro asked, "He Lin, what's the matter?" ”

He Lin poured a cup of tea for Liulang, put down the teapot, and looked at Liulang with a solemn face, "Just now when I went up the mountain with Lord Xu, I heard some rumors about you and the eldest lady of the Xu family, Liulang, do you and that eldest lady of the Xu family really have a marriage contract?" ”

Liulang breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, but his face also showed the same solemnity, and he said: "The marriage contract did exist in the past. However, as early as the year I returned to Xiaoqing Village, I had already made the situation clear to Lord Xu that I would not have anything to do with the eldest lady. ”

He Lin's face was still half hesitant, "Can ...... They are in a high position, and this eldest lady is very fond of you, if you really want to complete your marriage contract with her, you should ......"

Rokuro smiled, "I know what you're worried about, He Lin. ”

"If you think that I will betray He Mai because of this marriage contract, leave her, and go to the door of the Xu family instead, then you don't have to. Compared with the flowers and clouds of the imperial capital, I am more content with every moment with Hemai. Every inch of land and family house here is also what I am happy about, and it is the result of the joint efforts of me and Hemai. ”

He smiled again, "I think that between fame and self-satisfaction, you and I should choose the same." I'm not a man for fame and fortune, aren't you the same? ”

The two of them, not all of them have stood at the intersection of fame and power and ordinary self-satisfaction, but there is almost no hesitation, both of them have chosen to give up fame and rights, and would rather return to the basics.

He Lin was a little useful, nodded excitedly, and said, "Yes, Liulang, I know, I knew that you would come home in the end!" Sister, she didn't read the wrong person, and I didn't read the wrong person......"

Rokuro smiled, "Let's take the time to go to the county office in the town, He Lin." ”

He Lin closed his mouth and looked at Liulang puzzled.

"Whether you are willing to take the road of court or not, the dirty water that others have splashed on you will have to be washed away. Even if you don't care about these things, the elderly and children in the family will be affected by these things. ”

Rokuro said, paused, and then said, "There is another thing, which is about Scholar Xu." ”

He Lin's face froze for a moment, and he turned his gaze away.

"Before, Mr. Xu didn't have the ability to deal with your fraud, because he was just an examiner and a bachelor after all, and in front of a lot of evidence, there was really not much he could say. But I heard that he sent someone thousands of miles to ask you to come back as a guest. He Lin, Xu Daxue is talented and knowledgeable, has been an official for several years, and is willing to bring up the younger generations, if you are willing to follow Xu Daxue's side, over time, you will be able to achieve something. ”

"But......" He Lin looked a little embarrassed, "I have already told Huo Shan that I will not go to the imperial capital......

Liulang patted him on the shoulder and said gently: "I want to come to Huoshan and haven't returned to the imperial capital yet, so I should still be here." When my relationship with Prince Xu is not bad, if you are willing to go to the imperial capital to work hard, I will persuade you a few words later, and ask him to take more care of you when he returns to the imperial capital. ”

He Lin was stunned for a moment, and then said happily: "Really? That's great! If I said before that I was a rural village man, it is really angry, and if I can only be accompanied by loess fields in the future, it will be a great regret in my life......"

His gaze, half grateful, half surprised, fell on Liulang's face again, and said curiously: "However, Liulang, I know that the Xu family's status in the imperial capital is respectful, and it is beyond the reach of ordinary people. You have such a good relationship with the eldest son and eldest lady of the Xu family, how did you meet? ”

"Serendipity." Liulang smiled faintly, and only used these four words to cover He Lin's words.

He Lin wanted to ask something, but he was already grabbed by Liulang's shoulders and walked to the small hall.

"Let's go, it's time to eat."

……

……

When He Mai woke up, it was already night when the lights were in place.

Rokuro was reading by the lamp and sighed when he saw her awake.

"If I knew you had slept until now, I wouldn't have waited for dinner."

"What time is it?" He Mai rubbed his eyes and sat up.

Rokuro carefully put on her robe, "It's time." ”

As soon as He Mai heard the hour and was in good spirits, he was about to stand up, "Then you haven't eaten dinner yet?" I'm going to get you something to eat? ”

Rokuro grabbed her by the shoulders and asked her to sit down, turned to go out, and after a while took the tray and went into the house.

The food on the tray was freshly heated and steaming.

He Mai stretched his waist and said with a smile: "It's so good, Yilai stretches out his hand to open his mouth, good day!" ”

Liulang looked at Hemai as if he was hungry, and ate his food in a big gulp, and said strangely: "So hungry? I see you've been eating a lot these days. ”

"Maybe my sister-in-law's cooking is too delicious," He Mai took another bite of rice, "It's delicious!" ”

Rokuro's face fell, "This is what I did." ”

"You did it?" He Mai was stunned for a moment, swallowed a mouthful of food and said, "Why don't you call me for dinner?" It's been a long time since I've eaten your craft, and I can't imagine that I have improved a lot! ”

Liulang looked at Hemai with a smile and took a big bite of rice, "Eat slowly, eat slowly." You are now a little pig, you can eat and sleep, and the little tiger can't compare to you. ”

He Mai ate two bowls of rice cleanly, and looked at the amount of food he had for this dinner, and he was really shocked.

"I don't know what's wrong, I've been craving to eat these days, maybe...... Are you tired of climbing the mountain? She said.

"I see that you have also lost a few points, you will recuperate at home these days, and don't interfere in anything else." Rokuro said distressedly.

"It's not okay, I have to let my brother go to Huang County to clarify the charges, and I have to let Xia Jianfei honestly explain his crimes......" He Mai counted the same.

Liulang said: "I remember all this, you don't have to worry about it." There are also Xiu'er and Chen Wu, and the news came from Huang County, saying that they had explained everything, and the verdict would be announced the next day. ”

"Well, a good thing!" He Mai nodded heavily, and asked again, "What about Miss Xu?" And Master Xu, isn't he coming to our house tomorrow? and Pingyao and Brother Xu......"

Rokuro couldn't cry or laugh, "My little lady, do you live for yourself or for others?" Why do you worry about other people's business whenever you have free time? You don't have to worry about these things, with me, I can't bother you with anything. ”
