After Liu Song got off the boat, he was pulled to his house by the carriage hired by Ye Zhiqing, and sat in the small courtyard at the moment, listening to Ye Zhiqing and Song Kui's jokes, her two apprentices carried the cage in, and the little girl went in and out to pack up things, coaxing a large family, and suddenly gave birth to an illusion that she was also a member of this big family. 【Latest chapter reading. 】

He also knew in his heart that it was just a guest house, but he still couldn't help but have a little extravagant hope and wanted to make it come true.

In the past, he was afraid that Ye Zhiqing would look down on his background and behave, but the days he was taken care of by her on the boat made him change his mind.

People who practice medicine are kind-hearted, Liu Song found that whether it was the maid ring or the apprentice next to Ye Zhiqing, or even the master and servant of Aqi who was rescued by her halfway, and him, it seemed that there was no difference between superior and inferior in Ye Zhiqing's eyes, she was kind to others, and she never put on a master's shelf, and she also took good care of him, a seriously injured person.

Liu Song has seen a lot of cold eyes since he was a child, and he is very good at observing his face, and he is especially interested in Ye Zhiqing, for fear that she will despise him, but as a result, he found that in addition to the tiger girl, he has some love and ignorance for him, but Ye Zhiqing has nothing to do with him.

Hu Niu is a person in the capital, knowing his details, it is not strange to look down on him in his heart, when he was on the boat, Liu Song took advantage of the little girl to deliver food and sincerely admitted his mistake: "Sister, I used to be a bastard, I shouldn't have had such a bastard mind, it's my fault!" I've changed it a long time ago, and I hope my sister will forgive me! ”

The little girl didn't seem to expect him to say this, her expression softened a little, and then she warned him again: "I know what you think about my girl, and you are not allowed to beat my girl's idea!" ”

Liu Song said in her heart: It turns out that she is worried about this?

"Good, good! I will definitely not do the bastard thing in the past, your girl is my savior, I will definitely repay her in the future! ”

Hu Niu didn't hear the meaning of his words, and thought that he was agreeing to his own conditions, and no longer had any thoughts about Ye Zhiqing, and he was a little kinder. Unexpectedly, this was heard by Ah Qi, who was standing at the door of the cabin, and asked him with a smile: "Brother Liu knew Sister Ye Zi before?" ”

also called him Brother Liu, Liu Song couldn't say what the reason was, he always felt that Aqi was inexplicably a little hostile, but he gradually learned to be exquisite in the Cao Gang, dealing with all kinds of people, he was no longer a gangster in Beijing back then, he also smiled politely: "Yes, I have known Ye Zi for a long time." ”

Zhou Qi almost asked: How early? Did you know Ye Zi before my big brother?

Fortunately, she stopped at the critical moment, but she couldn't help but weigh all the way in her heart, and secretly felt sorry for Ye Zhiqing and Zhou Hong, the two of them were so compatible, but it was a pity that they were beaten by the stick. Could it be that Sister Ye really wants to marry a man like Liu Song in the future?

Although she is young, she has a good background and a lot of knowledge, when she was a child, she followed Zhou Zhen to see many uncles and rough men in the military camp, and listened to Mrs. Zhou's indoctrination about family upbringing, and the combination of the two is easy to conclude that Liu Song's background should not be very good.

Within a few days, she even figured out what Liu Song was doing now.

With a bad background and a death on the Cao River, such a man can never be married.

For this reason, Zhou Qi instilled in Ye Zhiqing that if you marry, you must marry a reliable man, otherwise you will definitely be burdened in the future.

Ye Zhiqing was told by a little girl about getting married every day, and one day she couldn't help it, and said quietly: "In fact, if a woman can stand on her own, she can't meet someone who is agreeable, and it's nothing if she doesn't marry, and she can still live happily in a small life." ”

Zhou Qi never thought that it turned out to be ...... Not marrying is also a way.

She shouted that she looked down on Sheng Shien and didn't want to marry, but that just showed that she didn't want to marry Sheng Shien, not that she wouldn't marry.

The little girl finally stopped.

Song Kui was going out to find a house, so he took the letter written by Zhou Qi and sent it to the Yamen Room of the Lianghuai Salt Transport Envoy in Yangzhou according to her instructions.

Zhou Qi only told him to hand it over to the two Huai Salt Envoys, but Song Kui arrived at the Embassy's Mansion and mentioned that he wanted to meet the Salt Envoy in person, and the porter could guess his identity when he saw what he was wearing, so he didn't pay much attention to it, and only said lightly: "The letter is here, the little one will help you send it in, the Salt Envoy is out today, and I don't know when I will come back." ”

Song Kui took out a piece of broken silver to reward the porter, and repeatedly advised: "This is the letter of the salt transport envoy, and it must be handed over to the adult." ”

The door originally looked down on him, but because of a piece of broken silver, he really took this matter to heart, stretched his neck and stared, and saw that Zhou Hao was going out, so he hurriedly shouted: "Uncle Hao, someone just sent a letter over, saying that it was an adult's letter, and it must be handed over to the adult." ”

It turned out that Mrs. Guo San wanted to take Guo Siqing and her sister's family to Daming Temple to offer incense today, so she asked Zhou Hong to go with her.

Since Zhou Hong took up the post of Lianghuai Salt Transport Envoy last year and went to Yangzhou to take up his post, many officials below have tried to find a way to get in touch with him.

Mrs. Guo San's sister is married to Liang Huai Yanyun Siyun and Qiao Liping, who are Zhou Hong's subordinates. Qiao Tongzhi has three sons and four daughters under his knees, and the branches are luxuriant, and this year he married the second daughter of the grandmother, Mrs. Guo San took Guo Siqing to Yangzhou to eat and drink, and was left by her sister Mrs. Qiao.

Qiao Tongzhi privately instructed Mrs. Qiao to start from the inner house and get in touch with Zhou Hong: "...... This Lord Zhou, who has been in the army for too long, is used to being the dominant family in the Southeast Water Army, has a rigid brain, and does not know how to turn around. The third aunt is his future mother-in-law, and it would be nice if he had time to let the third aunt mention him more. ”

Mrs. Qiao understood it, and when she was with Mrs. Guo San on weekdays, she praised Zhou Hong and Guo Siqing, and the flattery was very thoughtful.

Guo Sanye's official position is not as high as Qiao Tongzhi's, but his daughter is beautiful and has a young and promising husband, which is enough for Guo San to raise her eyebrows in front of Qiao Fu.

She would like to be able to pull Zhou Hong out a few more times on weekdays, if it weren't for the fact that her daughter hadn't gotten married, she would have been eager to live in the Yanyun Regular Division's office.

Zhou Hong was also very polite to his future mother-in-law and fiancée, and under the instigation of Mrs. Guo San, the two unmarried men and women also took their servants out twice.

After Guo Siqing came back, her face was flushed, and with the shyness of her little daughter, Mrs. Guo San was even more satisfied.

Zhou Hongjin rì běn is Xiu Mu, he packed up early in the morning, took people to Qiao's Mansion to pick up people, and accompanied the ladies to ride to Daming Temple.

Guo Siqing sat in the carriage, quietly lifted the curtain and glanced at the man who was immediately heroic, like drinking honey syrup, sweet to the tip of his heart.

When they arrived at Daming Temple, a group of female dependents worshiped on incense, and at noon the temple was clothed with fast dishes, and everyone was tasting, but Zhou Hao came over and handed over a letter to Zhou Hong: "My lord, the porter said that someone sent it this morning." ”

Zhou Hong opened it and looked at it, and was stunned for a moment.

The letter was written by Zhou Qi, only that he had arrived in Yangzhou with Yahuan, and encountered some trouble on the way, but fortunately he met a kind person, so he followed his benefactor to Yangzhou, and lived in the first right turn in Zaoshu Hutong in the east of the city, and asked Zhou Hong to pick her up after seeing the letter.

"Aqi has come to Yangzhou?"

Zhou Hong didn't receive the letter from home, but when he saw Zhou Qi's handwritten letter, his brows were wrinkled together: "What trouble is this girl doing at home?" Otherwise, he wouldn't have run to Yangzhou to join him for no reason.

Zhou Hao was asked stupidly: "I haven't written from home." He leaned over and looked at it twice, and suddenly said, "Will it be...... The letter from home came before it arrived? ”

Zhou Hong thought about it reasonably, didn't even eat fast, and went to the next door to bid farewell to Mrs. Guo San, only saying that there was something urgent to go back to deal with.

Mrs. Guo San and Mrs. Qiao's two daughters were eating Zhai's food, and when they heard Zhou Hong asking to see him outside the door, they opened another clean room to see Zhou Hong.

Hearing that Zhou Hong was in a hurry to rush back, he asked him repeatedly: "Isn't it Xiu Mu today?" Who doesn't have long eyes and is looking for trouble? She originally tricked her future son-in-law out to fill the façade, but Zhou Hong was about to leave halfway through the meal, which was a little unpleasant.

Guo Siqing's heart was tied to Zhou Hong, and she was busy stabbing Mrs. Guo San: "Mother"

Zhou Hong didn't listen to her words very well, ** said: "It's the sister who has arrived in Yangzhou, and the son-in-law rushed to pick her up and settle down." ”

Guo Sanfu was red, and he really felt that his words were a bit excessive, so in order to remedy it, he pulled Guo Siqing over: "Aqi just came to Yangzhou, it is better to let Siqing follow over to help, and then go back to Qiao's Mansion when Siqing is settled." ”

Zhou Hong didn't want Guo Siqing to go with him, but he really didn't know why Zhou Qi ran over without permission, but Mrs. Guo San insisted on doing so, Guo Siqing also wanted to have a good relationship with her future sister-in-law, and repeatedly expressed her willingness to help, so Zhou Hong took Guo Siqing back.

Guo Siqing sat in the carriage, Zhou Hong rode back from Daming Temple, all the way to the Zaoshu Hutong in the east of the city, and went to knock on the door according to the letter, only to hear a familiar voice in the courtyard: "Who?" ”

It was Su Ming who came to open the door, and he was a little stupid when he saw Zhou Hong: "Shao...... Major General? ”

Zhou Hong's expression was even more stupid than Su Ming's, he came to pick up Zhou Qi, but he didn't expect to see Su Ming.

Su Ming followed Ye Zhiqing to the flow ball, so to speak...... She's back?

Once this thought jumped out of Zhou Hong's mind, it was difficult to press it down, and the matter of connecting Zhou Qi was temporarily put behind him: "When did you come back?" His heart was pounding, and he almost felt that this was the way Ye Zhiqing invited him to come over and think of it. It was only that a voice soon dismissed the idea: how could she know Aqi's handwriting?

Su Ming also thought that Zhou Hong was here to find Ye Zhiqing, although he didn't know why the two were separated, but he always looked forward to the two of them being together, and suddenly invited Zhou Hong in with joy on his face: "We arrived in Yangzhou by ship this morning, why did the young general come?" Then he raised his voice and shouted into the room, "Master, come and see who is coming?" ”

Zhou Hong only had time to take a look at the yard at this time, the small yard was unobstructed, there were several boxes and cages piled up high and low, thinking that he would have time to collect them in the future, there was a pomegranate tree planted in the yard, and a young man was half-sitting under the tree, standing up straight and looking over, his expression was by no means friendly.

At this moment, Zhou Qi first jumped out of it, and when he saw the people at the gate of the courtyard, he suddenly shouted happily: "Big brother" rushed over and crashed into his arms.

Zhou Hong didn't have time to look down at the mèi mèi in his arms, but he stared firmly at the door of the room, followed by the woman's plain dress and long skirt, and pulled up her sleeves, revealing half of her snow-white wrists, after a year of separation, she seemed to have grown taller, but she lost a lot of weight, slender and slender figure, the previous little baby fat on her face completely dissipated, and the delicate lines of the whole face seemed to be carefully drawn by the holy hand of Danqing, raising a pair of sparkling eyes, and she was stunned when she looked at it.

"Ah...... Aqi? ”

Ye Zhiqing imagined a thousand possibilities to reunite with Zhou Hong, but she was not unprepared today.

Zhou Hong's gaze was like a nail, as if he wanted to nail it to her face, which made Ye Zhiqing very unbearable. Although she didn't know what the relationship between Ah Qi and Zhou Hong was, she saw her throw herself into Zhou Hong's arms without any scruples, and she was a little envious of her.

Zhou Qi hugged enough, only then did he remember that he was still hiding from Ye Zhiqing, and turned to apologize to Ye Zhiqing with a red face: "Sister Ye, I'm really sorry, I'm not embarrassed to say, this is my eldest brother." ”

Ye Zhiqing had only heard Zhou Hong say that there was a brother and a sister in the family, and now it suddenly dawned on her, she didn't expect the world to be so small, and Aqi was actually Zhou Hong's sister-in-law.

She didn't know what to say, so she smiled reluctantly: "It's okay, since your eldest brother is here to pick you up, then pack up your things and go back with him." Fang just came out to see Zhou Hong, and was shocked by the reunion, and for a moment he broke the seasoning jar, I can't tell what it tastes like, spicy, sour, sweet, bitter, smashing down, mixed tastes.

Su Ming stood in place with his mouth open, full of joy and poured a basin of ice water on his head, this is not counting, I don't know when a beautiful girl came over at the door, just looking at the dress, she knows that her family background is excellent, and she whispers softly I don't know how many times gentler than his master: "Brother Hong, why don't you let Aqi clean up your things first?" ”

Zhou Qi jumped out as if she had seen a ghost: "Why is she here?" ”

She turned her head to look at Zhou Hong's face, and then at Guo Siqing, she only felt that she wanted to cry without tears, what is this called?

Guo Siqing had already stepped forward to hold her arm, asked her what she had seen and heard on the way, if she had worked hard, and frowned and urged Jingyue who came out behind to pack up her things: "This place is broken and small, and there is not even a place to put your feet, how can you let your girl settle here?" I didn't hurry up to pack my luggage, so I could take the girl to the salt transport envoy's office. ”

Zhou Hong's brows furrowed imperceptibly.

Zhou Qi only felt that her words were particularly harsh, revealing a sense of contempt from above, so she gently broke away from her hand and walked over to apologize to Ye Zhiqing: "Sister Ye, I ...... before." I didn't tell you before, it really wasn't intentional, I just ...... I don't know how to explain it to you. ”

Ye Zhiqing can understand the little girl's concerns when she thinks about it, she fell into that situation and was rescued by Ye Zhiqing, and it is understandable that she did not dare to confess her identity. Now she finally understands that when she first met, Zhou Qi's sentence I recognize you was not a lie, thinking that when she went to the General's Mansion, the little girl was very likely to hide in the dark and see herself.

But fortunately, after getting along all the way, she can also feel that the little girl does not despise her, but likes to talk to her very much, and wants to be her tail, which greatly offsets the embarrassment in her heart.

"Who is that girl?"

Ye Zhiqing's question was really something that Zhou Qi didn't want to face, but she hid it from Ye Zhiqing all the way, and it was a shame to hide it again, so she gritted her teeth and mustered up the courage to tell her: "That's ...... My future sister-in-law, Guo Jia Wu xiǎo jiě. ”

Zhou Qi only felt that the hand he was holding stiffened, and suddenly he didn't even have the courage to look at Ye Zhiqing's face, so he hurriedly hugged her: "Sister Ye, I'll come to see you again when I'm free." So he hurried in and packed his things.

She didn't see it, but that doesn't mean others didn't see it.

Although Zhou Hong stood at the gate of the courtyard, he was a martial arts practitioner, and his ear power was amazing, and he took all the conversations between Ye Zhiqing and Zhou Qi into his ears. From beginning to end, his gaze never took off Ye Zhiqing's face, and he quietly took in all her expressions.

When she heard Zhou Qi's words, the blood on her face faded in an instant, her eyes swept over Guo Siqing's face, and she didn't know whether she was weak or embarrassed, and she didn't even have the courage to look directly at him, so she only said perfunctorily: "General Zhou, please wait, I'll go in and take a look."
