Chapter 351 Send the plague god and meet a good couple

In this Chinese New Year season, even Chen Yan, who always likes to run to the mirror garden, is not too late to go back, so he goes back after dinner early. At his insistence, Chen Lan only sent it to the door of the hall of Xifuju, but at the time of parting, he stopped people and tightened the dark purple coat for him.

"Sister, if you have anything to say, just say it."

"It's not a command. There has been a long delay in the palace today, and your brother-in-law has been to the Hou Mansion to pay New Year's greetings, so I have to go over tomorrow. Originally, I didn't care about the old lady at that time, but since you came over, I brought a letter back. The third uncle will go to work after the Lantern Festival, according to the previous practice in Yunnan, most of them are to take Aunt Luo with him, but now that the third aunt has passed away, he has no intention of continuing the string, and Aunt Luo has a decree, so she should be allowed to stay. ”

"Stay? What did you leave her for? Chen Yan only felt confused for a while, and her brows furrowed, "She didn't calculate us at the beginning, and she didn't care about her affairs."

"She is the Luo family, your aunt of Senior Brother Luo. Moreover, she stumbled, but it was not evil after all, but the fifth sister helped us deliver the message, and besides, it was a legitimate thing to do it, so we had to spare people and spare people, so why not help her. Besides, your third uncle is not here, and the Luo family obviously won't mix in the muddy waters of the Hou Mansion, can she have a side room, what kind of wind and waves can she turn over? Seeing that Chen Yan's face was awkward, obviously still a little unhappy, Chen Lan straightened his face slightly, "Fourth brother, you need to understand a truth." Be kind to others and be good to yourself, one more friend in this world is one less enemy. A male man, strength is important, and if he is obsessed with everything, most of them will end up with King Huai. ”

The latter sentence was extremely low, but even so, Chen Yan still shuddered, seeing that his daughter-in-law was far away, he should not be able to hear it, he breathed a sigh of relief: "Sister, it's amazing for others to hear what you said...... It's just that I'm not the prime minister, and I can't hold the boat in my belly, although I can't have grievances and revenge, but it's not too late for ten years for you to take revenge...... Okay, can't I listen to you? Ha, I see"

Chen Yan, who was still unhappy just now, suddenly had his eyes lit up, and then he leaned up a little more, and squeezed his eyes at Chen Lan: "Sister, you are really a desperate plan, the second brother and the fifth brother are more afraid of the third uncle than respectful, and they can't talk about being close, so the fifth sister doesn't need to talk about it, because the marriage is almost a mess." Now if Aunt Luo separates from him again...... Hey, he's a loner at home, hey, I'll say to the old lady when I go back."

Seeing that Chen Yan followed the two mothers-in-law who played the lantern after saying goodbye, and walked happily, Chen Lan stood in place and suddenly had a little worry, but then he smiled dumbly. After all, she has been through a lot more than the little one, and she can't ask him to be like her. It's just that treating people with sincerity and treating people with calculations, how can a real person with a heart not notice the subtle difference?

Sending Chen Yan back to the main room, Chen Lan saw that the Jiang family didn't seem to want to mention the uncle, so he didn't open his mouth to ask, and only briefly mentioned how he entered the palace today. And the Jiang family heard that Chen Lan ran away from Xianyang Palace, Duanfu Palace, Changle Palace, and then followed the Yixing County Lord in Xiyuan for a long time, and immediately asked Chen Lan to go back to rest earlier.

"Mother, how can I be so delicate, I have to talk to you more during the New Year" Chen Lan glanced at Zhuang's mother, saw that she got up to avoid it for some reason, and took the girls down, and sat down next to the Jiang family, and casually said a few words of gossip that didn't matter, which turned to the main topic and said, "Today's Shuquan's matter, the emperor showed his tone, and the mother also confirmed it." After about the New Year, the Liangjiang General Army will be released. ”

"Huh?"

This piece of news greatly surprised the Jiang family, and when she raised her eyes to look at her childhood, she was also stunned now, and she immediately looked sideways at Chen Lan: "How could it be so sudden?" Did the emperor say anything else? ”

Chen Lan said the emperor's original words with a little embellishment, and seeing that the Jiang family was snow-white, she was afraid that her mother-in-law would be wrong, so she had to explain a few words tactfully beside her. When she explained that the county lord of Yixing had already made arrangements for this, and the emperor had decided it early on, the factors of the Jiang family were insignificant, and the Jiang family's expression was slightly softened.

"That's not the reason...... Speaking of which, I haven't been back there for more than 20 years, and I can't imagine that this generation will be able to revisit the old place one day......"

"Mother, the emperor's appointment has also fulfilled your wish, besides, I have even been to the north, am I still afraid of the south of the Yangtze River?" Although Yang Jinzhou said that he had countless thoughts at once, he still comforted his mother first, "Besides, compared to Yang Ninghou, who can't take his family with him when he goes out of the town, but our family of three can go together, what is better than this appointment?" ”

Yang Jinzhou said a word, Chen Lan said a word, and the husband and wife went into battle together, and they comforted the Jiang family in a moment. When the Jiang family lay down, the couple went out together, Yang Jinzhou was about to speak, but he heard a big yawn from the side, looked sideways, and saw Chen Lan hit the second and third ones next, and then embarrassedly stretched out his hand to cover his mouth.

"Sleepy?"

"Hmm...... There are too many nobles to see all day, even the emperor is also in the fun, my spirit has been tight, fortunately I relaxed at my mother's place, and stared at the car back for a while, otherwise I really can't hold on. Holding Yang Jinzhou's arm, almost leaning on the weight of the person, Chen Lan actually felt that his feet were a little floating, and he couldn't help but sigh again, "I really have to exercise while recuperating when I go back, otherwise whether it is waiting for the canal to freeze and take a boat down, or taking a sea boat from Tianjin, or simply walking 6 ways, it will take at least ten days and half a month......

Yang Jinzhou was slightly stunned, and then felt that his wife was leaning on his arm and muttered to himself, and then his voice became softer and softer, while the weight on his arm became heavier and heavier. After arriving, seeing that Chen Lan was actually in a daze and almost squinted his eyes and walked forward, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and said a word to Qin Fang who was following behind.

"Ahh

Chen Lan, who had almost closed his eyes, woke up suddenly, and then he was startled. Just as she was struggling to speak, she saw a stubborn expression in her dark eyes. Although she was a little embarrassed, her appearance had already come out at this time, and it was almost the same whether she put it down or not, so she simply put her heart sideways and buried her head deeply, but her face was a little burning.

The mother-in-law who played the lantern in front of her, Qinfang and Yun'er, who followed behind, and a few little girls were all stunned, but after that, the two mothers-in-law didn't overdo it and continued to walk forward as if nothing happened, while the little girls were taught two sentences by the two sisters. Very, in the dim passageway, there was only the sound of chaotic footsteps, and even the sound of breathing became softer. waited until they entered the Yiqing Pavilion, and the group relaxed individually.

When she entered the main room, Chen Lan wanted to struggle, but seeing that Yang Jinzhou had no intention of letting go, she had to give up her plan to compete with Han, who got up early every day to practice swords. It was only in the west room, the moment he put himself on the bed, she immediately bounced up and grabbed his arm.

It was obviously embarrassing, but Yang Jinzhou looked at the flushed face, and unconsciously thought of four words - charming eyes like silk. Seeing that the girls didn't follow up, he sat down on the edge of the bed, and then suddenly reached out and plucked Chen Lan's hairpin, and said with a smile: "The subordinates of the family are all clean and obedient to you, what are you afraid of others seeing?" Besides, it's not a bad thing to get the word out, so that fewer people will beat my idea. I heard that Jiangnan people like to give women ......"

"You, you, you......"

Chen Lan was stunned by Yang Jinzhou's words, until someone called someone to fetch water to come in, and she couldn't help but be angry and funny. It's just that the mother-in-law at home doesn't care about the reputation of her daughter-in-law's roar in Hedong, where is she afraid of this, so when she lies down and puts down the tent again after washing, she has to support her arms and squint at the person next to the pillow, and then laughs.

"Since it's meant to be shown to others...... Don't just do it."

The girls are on duty at this time in the bright room, and Qin Fang and Yun'er, who were married, sat there tacitly to pack up the things they got from entering the palace today, while doing things, they were still unaware of their eyebrows, and Changdi and Hongying took a little girl to sleep, and gave a stern order, and when they entered the door and heard the movement in the room, their faces turned red unconsciously.

With Chen Yan's prior foundation, Chen Lan came to the door on the second day of the first lunar month only to mention it slightly, and the Zhu family understood and immediately summoned Aunt Luo over, saying that she was old, and asked her to pick a few reliable people to follow Chen Ying to Suzhou, and stay to take care of the children by herself. Although she was willing to do so, Aunt Luo was afraid of Chen Ying's intentions, so she hesitated to find some reasons, and then agreed after Zhu's face. However, unexpectedly, when Chen Ying came back that night to learn about the incident, she didn't raise any questions at all, and then rested in the outer study, which greatly relieved Aunt Luo, who was originally worried.

But what she didn't expect was that within a few days, Chen Ying sent someone to ask her to pack up immediately, and she was ready to leave for Gansu on the eighth day of the Lunar New Year. Although the encounter a few days ago made her wish Chen Ying left earlier, she was still a little caught off guard in the face of such a situation. After thinking about it, she put aside those messy thoughts and prepared for it.

When it was really the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, seeing Chen Ying say goodbye to the Zhu family with an expressionless face, Aunt Luo, who came out with her, took her children all the way out, and because she didn't say a word, she couldn't help but feel more and more worried in her heart. When she arrived at the second gate, she saw more than a dozen generals outside the door waiting there with horses, so she naturally stopped.

"I hope the master will go here and make great achievements and come back as soon as possible."

"Oh?" Chen Ying turned her head sideways and glanced at Aunt Luo, her eyes turned around on the children again, and when she saw that Mother Wu actually covered Chen Ting behind her back a little, a trace of fierceness suddenly flashed in his eyes, and then he looked at Aunt Luo with a smile and said, "Don't you all hope that I will leave early, so as not to make you afraid?" ”

As soon as these words came out, whether it was Aunt Luo, Chen Qing, Chen Han, Chen Xi, or Mother Wu and Chen Ting, their faces all changed. Aunt Luo, who was at the brunt of it, tried her best to barely squeeze out a smile, but she stumbled and said: "Why did the master say this, everyone naturally wants you to stay at home, but the holy order is difficult to disobey......"

Before she finished speaking, she suddenly felt a sharp pain in her wrist, and when she looked down, she saw that it was Chen Ying's iron pincer-like hand tightly clamping her wrist. Her eyes shrank, but she saw that Chen Ying's face was almost just an inch away from herself, and she wanted to retreat for a while but couldn't move at all.

"Don't think that staying at home will be able to make the wife peaceful, without the name of the housemother, you are nothing in front of the old lady, if you want to make rules, you will make rules, and if you want to be punished, it is just a sentence, don't think that the concubine is the backup, before the concubine summoned you to the palace, didn't you stop it? Some people can help you for a while, but they can't help you for a lifetime, there will be no kindness in this world for no reason, do you think the three girls are for no reason to tell you in front of the old lady? ”

Aunt Luo was cold by Chen Ying's cruel tone, and when she wanted to defend herself, she felt that someone behind her was holding her arm. Out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of her daughter Chen Xi, she immediately forced herself to calm down, lowered her head and said, "The master's reminder, the concubine has written it down." ”

"Just write it down."

Chen Ying glanced at Chen Qing and Chen Han over there, her eyes narrowed slightly, she didn't say a word, and immediately walked out without looking back. The people at the second gate bowed and saluted in unison, until the sound of the horse's hooves faded away, and they straightened up one by one. Although the relationship between them is usually close and strange, at that moment, the eyes under each other's eyes are clearly relieved and relaxed.

Today's rules, all year round, the New Year's Day Winter Solstice Holy Day, these three major festivals are solemn. Only for the people, the 11-day Lantern Festival from the eighth day of the first month to the eighteenth day of the first month is a good day for the whole world to celebrate. Starting from the eighth day of the first month, the night curfew that is implemented all year round will be temporarily canceled, so there are both people who come from Xuanfu in Shandong and other places to see the lights, and there are also people who come from the suburbs to join in the fun, starting from early in the morning, the nine gates of the inner city show a bustling situation.

And despite entering the New Year, the weather is still cold and cold, so compared with the Chongwen Gate where merchants gather, the Xuanwu Gate of Shiai, and the Fucheng Gate in the west are full of coal cars, almost half of the Fuchengmen Street is stuffed, so that the people in the western suburbs who are waiting to enter the city are quite impatient. And in the endless flow of teams entering the city, a convoy going out of the city against the current is naturally extremely conspicuous.

The shouting of the coal coolies outside, the neighing of mules and donkeys from time to time, the chaotic and heavy footsteps, and the shouting and scolding when they bump into each other...... The car was on the road, and these voices were endless, and Chen Lan saw Yang Jinzhou frequently looking at the car door, so he smiled angrily: "Didn't you choose to take this road?" ”

"I think Shichahai is surrounded by those mansions, and the owners in it often go outside the city these days, and they have the intention to avoid it, but they forget that today is the Lantern Festival, and this time is the time to transport coal. I knew that it wouldn't be so troublesome, and it was convenient to go out at home and go to Desheng Gate, so why bother to come here and plug in......"

"You" Chen Lan glanced at him with slight disgust, and then smiled, "Hengzhi is not in a hurry, we have to stay outside the city for three or four days." If you want to say that my mother and mother were prescient, I made an appointment yesterday to go out of the city first, and I didn't have to crowd with the people watching the lights, and even Xiaosi took them first. I just don't know if Sister Huixin left early...... But I don't think I'll go our way. ”

Yang Jinzhou smiled bitterly at Chen Lan's words, and then simply pretended to be dumb, until he finally reached the city gate, and the inspection of the city camp was quickly released, and he breathed a sigh of relief. After walking along the official road for a while, he was about to speak, when a shout suddenly came from outside. Vaguely hearing Qin Hu's voice, he couldn't help frowning, and immediately asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"My lord, ma'am...... It's Luo Shi, it seems that there is Xiao Shi and someone"

Hearing this, Chen Lan in the car was also taken aback. In a moment, the carriage stopped. The car door opened and the roller shutter was drawn, Yang Jinzhou was the first to jump out of the car, and as soon as he saw the person who came, he showed a somewhat subtle expression. Although Qin Hu said that it was a group of people, from his position, King Jing and Xiao Lang were riding side by side, while Luo Xu was guarding a carriage, and the people were divided into three distinct groups. Faced with this strange situation, he actually thought about stepping forward.

And the moment he saw Yang Jinzhou get out of the car, Luo Xu had already jumped off the horse neatly, and at this time he strode forward, and he actually had a bear hug with Yang Jinzhou first, and then took advantage of the other party's extremely unnatural mouth and muttered softly: "I went out of the city to see my father yesterday, but later Mrs. Xiao Zhang's old lady went out of the city to Baiyun Temple to incense, and my father got the news and asked me to escort him, and by the way I helped to take care of the accommodation, who knew that when I sent people back to the city today, I met the two of them on the way." ”

After saying this, he let go of his hand, patted Yang Jinzhou's shoulder hard, and said with a laugh: "Brother Yang, where are you going to have fun with your sister-in-law?" ”

"It was the county lord who invited him to go to the Tangquan Palace in Xiaotangshan."

Yang Jinzhou told the truth, and King Jing, who heard this, immediately slapped his horse and stepped forward, and jumped off the horse in a dashing manner when he arrived in front: "I said, today is the beginning of the Lantern Festival, when everyone else is rushing to the city, but you came out of the city, and you dare to go to the Tangquan Palace to soak in the hot springs." Aunt Nine has several mouthfuls of imperial soup there, and she has hardly used it, but now it is just right to add you...... Hmm, speaking of which, why did I forget that this soup spring is also a must in Beijing? ”

Speaking of this, he suddenly turned his head to look at Xiao Lang, who was slowly riding his horse: "Xiao Lang, I also have a courtyard in Xiaotangshan, and I must invite you to enjoy the scenery of this soup spring when I turn around."

As soon as these words came out, Yang Jinzhou and Luo Xu saw that many of the servants behind Xiao Lang were in a commotion, but King Jing's entourage seemed to be commonplace, and they were all silent. At this time, Xiao Lang slapped the horse's belly and stepped forward, and pulled the reins in front of several people, but he looked at King Jing condescendingly, and then snorted lightly.

"Are you really planning to spend all these days before leaving Beijing on such meaningless things?"

"What do you mean by meaningless? You must know that life must be happy in the world, and don't make the gold bottle empty to the moon. Enjoy yourself when it's time to play, and concentrate when it's time to do things, which is the true meaning of life. ”

King Jing smiled indifferently, and saw that the carriage not far behind Luo Xu was actually slowly driving forward, and the two carriages on the side of Jingyuan were also concocted in the same way, and the three carriages stopped at the stop set up on the side of the road in a moment, and he gestured to his entourage and others, and immediately stepped forward to personally pull the reins of Xiao Lang.

"It's still early, why don't you come down and talk?"

For King Jing's ridicule, he should not understand it, his cold face should not be seen, and at the same time, he can't shake off his personality like kraft candy, Xiao Lang is completely out of line, and immediately turned down with a cold face. And the other two on the side didn't expect that this highness didn't plan to meet and say hello, but decided to make a short story, and after exchanging glances with each other, they were a little helpless.

After the three carriages stopped next to each other, Chen Lan put on his cloak and got out of the car, and after meeting Aunt Liu in the back car, he walked to Zhang's carriage. When he walked up, the door shutter had been pulled up, and the head of a furry mink rabbit was poked out, which was Zhang Bingyun. Seeing her smile and stretch out her hand to pull it, Chen Lan didn't say anything more, borrowed a handful of force and stepped on the stirrups and got into the car.

The interior of the carriage is simply furnished, but the windows on the side are inlaid with glass, so when the curtains are opened, a lot of light comes in. In addition to Mrs. Zhang's mother and daughter, there was only one beautiful girl in the car, and when the two sides met at this moment, the girl actually stared at Chen Lan for a long time, and Zhang Bingyun made a few glances to make her stop.

"I didn't expect it to be such a coincidence today." Mrs. Zhang looked at Chen Lan and said apologetically, "It's not once or twice that Bingyun has bothered Mrs. Yang, I, as a mother, should have come to the door in person to thank me, but because of my poor health in winter, I was still able to go out yesterday." Bingyun has always been naughty, if there is something to offend, please Haihan. ”

"What are you talking about? Sister Bingyun and I hit it off at first sight, and it was too late to like it, where could we say the word offended. It was I who promised to call her a female celebrity, but then there were many things, and it was delayed when I came and went, and it should be me who wanted to pay for it. ”

When Chen Lan said this, he saw Zhang Bingyun handing over a handkerchief with a smile, and he was stunned for a moment to see clearly the two cute ducklings on it, which understood that this was for him to taste, so he hurriedly took it and took a closer look. She was about to say a word of praise when there was a sudden sound of horses' hooves on the road outside. The voice came from far and near, and then seemed to stop right next to them.
