Chapter 42: Reunion after fifteen years
Chu Liuyan, together with Lan Yu, Tang He, and Chen's mother and son, after discussing it, left Rooster Ridge and prepared to go to Guo Zixing's military camp. Tang He cried loudly at the village, and finally set a fire to burn down the whole village, he was sad and sad in his heart, thinking of the past, he only felt sad and couldn't help himself. Chu Liuyan waited for him to see the village turn to ashes with his own eyes, and then said: "Although it is not dawn yet, this is not a place to stay for a long time, we should first rush to the City God Temple to rest for a while, eat some dry food, and then rush to the military camp is not too late." ”
There was a strange smell of burning wafting between heaven and earth, and the three of the Chen family had long been unwilling to stay here, so they all listened to Chu Liuyan's words and rushed to the City God Temple.
By the time we arrived at the City God Temple, it was already dark. Last night the moonlight was better than the snow, but this morning, the heavens and the earth were gray, and the dark clouds in the sky were black and pressed as if they were about to press on people's heads.
Chu Liuyan said: "Looking at this sky, it seems to be raining." We might as well take refuge in this ruined temple for a while, and wait until the rain has passed, and then it's not too late to leave. "Chen's mother and daughter have been detained for two days, and they are already hungry. Several people walked into the temple together.
"Miss Chu." As soon as Chu Liuyan walked into the temple, she heard someone calling her. The voice was calm and powerful, and there was a hint of anxiety and impatience, who was it if it wasn't Xu Da? ”
"Xu Gongzi." Chu Liuyan took a few steps forward, his eyes clear as water: "Why did Xu Gongzi come here?" We're just going to take shelter from the rain here and rush back. ”
Xu Da also showed a rare smile and said, "We have been waiting for you in the army for a long time, and you haven't gone back." Biyi came to us and asked where you had been. Teach her back a Sister Chu. I just came out to look for you, afraid that something would happen to you, a lone woman, outside. I was relieved to see that you were okay. When Xu Da said these words, he was relieved, which made Chu Liuyan very moved.
Chu Liuyan told Xu Da what had happened in the past two days. Xu Da listened all the time and didn't express any opinions. However, when Chu Liuyan introduced Tang He to Xu Da, Xu Da and him were very close to him.
When everyone had rested enough and had eaten some dry food, they hurried to the barracks together. Along the way, Chen Shiyi commanded, and the little dog also had a kind of villainous arrogance, Xu Da and Chu Liuyan just didn't see it.
By noon, walking back to the army, Zhu Chongba, Chang Yuchun and others had already greeted them. When Chang Yuchun saw Lan Yu, his body trembled, his beard was curled, and he said hurriedly: "Cousin, why are you back again?" It took a lot to get you out, didn't you come back to die? ”
Lan Yu smiled at Chang Yuchun and said loudly: "Cousin, the male and the eldest husband was born in this world, when he galloped across the field and returned with a horse leather shroud, how could he hide all day long, like a big girl?" I'd rather die than die brightly than live secretly. ”
I often rub my hands in a spring rush, but I don't know what to do.
Zhu Chongba stared at Xu Da very depressedly: This Xu Da is really hateful, why is he betting on the right treasure every time? Seeing that Miss Chu is so affectionate with him, is Miss Chu really interested in him? If I had gone out to look for her with Xu Da in the middle of the night, I wouldn't have gotten the current situation where Xu Da was alone in Miss Chu's mind, hmph.
Chen raised his head, swept the group of people on the side, and asked arrogantly, "Where is the old man?" Hurry up and take me to him. Chu Liuyan had to tell the identity of the Chen family again, and everyone didn't dare to slack off, so Zhu Chongba went into the marshal's camp and told Guo Zixing about the matter.
After Guo Zixing was executing Lan Yu, some generals were not convinced and made trouble, and suddenly heard the news brought by Zhu Chongba, they were stunned for a long time, and let out a roar: "I have a son, and the Guo family has a queen." ”
He was excited for a while, and then he remembered that he was too happy, he hadn't seen the three people Zhu Chongba said, who knew if they were fake. He ordered Zhu Chongba to bring the three people up, and Zhu Chongba did as he was told. After only a few moments, the three of them had already been brought in.
"Dead old thief, you don't say a word when you are developed, the bad old lady takes her son to look for you everywhere!" Chen saw Guo Zixing and scolded him. Guo Zixing was stunned at first, stood there, didn't speak for a long time, and waited until Chen finished scolding, then took Chen's hand, and said with tears: "Xiangyun, it's really you, I thought you were all starving to death back then." To be able to meet again today is really a sight in the sky, and I Guo Zixing is not thin. ”
Although Guo Zixing is brutal and domineering, he reveals his true feelings for his wife and children, and he does not fake it at all. And Chen scolded Guo Zixing as soon as he opened his mouth, Guo Zixing didn't dare to refute her, and she scolded herself enough in front of her own soldiers. Guo Zixing was just a small farmer back then, while Chen Xiangyun was the daughter of a big landlord. Guo Zixing worked as a long-term worker in the Chen family and fell in love with Chen Xiangyun, and Chen Xiangyun was also interested in him. So, the two hit it off, and Lang was in love. But Master Chen said that he would not marry his daughter to a long-term worker, so Chen Xiangyun packed his bags and ran away with Guo Zixing in the middle of the night.
After Chen Xiangyun followed Guo Zixing, he has been suffering hardships and tired, and he has given birth to children for him, without any complaints. It's just that Chen Xiangyun's temper is not very good, and he scolds Guo Zixing at every turn, Guo Zixing is also afraid of his wife from the bottom of his heart, and obeys Chen Xiangyun's words. Now, although many years have passed, Guo Zixing has become the commander of the three armies, but for some reason, after seeing Chen Xiangyun, he still can't help but fear her.
Chen pulled the puppy with one hand and Guo Ruyi with the other, and said, "This is your pair of children." This is your son puppy, and this is your daughter Ruyi. Guo Zixing's excited eyes were red, as if they were about to burn, and he shouted: "Dog, is it my son?" Do I Guo Zixing really have a son? I'm not dreaming. ”
Chen twisted his ear hard and said, "How can you be dreaming, do you feel that your ear hurts?" Guo Zixing nodded, took the dog's hand and asked the long and short questions, and Ruyi was obviously inferior to the dog.
Guo Zixing's voice was like a bell, and he said loudly: "Little dog is not what my Guo Zixing's son should be called, little dog, don't call it this name in the future." Dad will marry you a name, and you will be called ......" He groaned a little and said, "Let's call it Guo Tianxu." Ruyi, you are my Guo Zixing's daughter, the water spilled by the daughter who got married is always from a fat family, you have to be virtuous, and I will call you Hui'er in the future. "The puppy got a new name, not to mention how happy he was, and Ruyi was a little sullen.
It turned out that after Chen Xiangyun gave birth to these children, Guo Zixing did not give them an official name, his son has always been called Xiaogouzi, and his daughter has always been called Ruyi. And now that Guo Zixing is already the commander of a party, the names of his children are naturally more magnificent, so he re-named this pair of names for them.
As soon as Guo Zixing said that Guo Hui would marry, the Chen family thought of Lan Yu. She turned around and shouted, "Where's the blue jade?" Where is Sapphire? ”
Guo Zixing heard Chen shouting Lan Yu's name, he panicked in his heart, and he didn't know how to answer, but suddenly he saw Lan Yu come forward, and Shi Li said: "Lan Yu again, what does the marshal's wife command?" Guo Zixing suddenly saw Lan Yu, thinking that he had seen a ghost, and his face suddenly turned pale.
Chen glared at him and said, "Are you scared?" Didn't you realize that Sapphire was a person, not a ghost? Why be scared like this. I've heard about Lan Yu's previous events, old man, you have to listen to me this time, Lan Yu must let go, and I will marry Ruyi to him in the future. ”
"What?" When Guo Zixing heard this, he couldn't care about discussing whether Lan Yu was a human or a ghost, he patted the case and said: "Hui'er can marry anyone, but she can't marry Lan Yu!" ”
Guo Zi was excited, but he didn't expect his wife to be ten or eight times more horizontal than him, she crossed her hands on her hips and said almost hysterically: "Why can't you marry Lan Yu?" Are you afraid that Ruyi will marry Lan Yu, and your precious goddaughter will be sad. Guo Zixing, I have to make it clear to you today, I don't care if you love your goddaughter, but you have to distinguish between relatives and relatives, which is your goddaughter and which is your biological flesh and blood. ”
Chen's words made Guo Zixing's heart sink. He secretly thought: What Mrs. said still has some truth. Although over the years, I have always loved Xiuying very much, and I also regard her as my own flesh and blood. But after all, she is not related to herself, and compared with Tianxu and Hui'er, she is indeed inferior. I really have to remind myself all the time to know which one is the one who is close to me.
