"Today, the assassin was captured in the city, and the general specially ordered his subordinates to come and protect his wife."

The assassin was really sparse and ordinary, and Madame Xiao didn't ask much, nodded and asked Hengyu with a smile: "What do you want to eat for lunch?" Let the cook in the house do it. ”

Meng Dazhu didn't feel much tension on his body, thinking that the situation had been controlled.

The carriage moved slowly down the street, and he and Gigi walked along with it.

"The etiquette in your capital is really beautiful......" Meng Dazhu glanced at Ji Ji's walking posture with his hands clasped in front of him, and suddenly spoke a little cluelessly.

"Of course, my girl teaches well." Ji Ji praised his own girl, and did not forget to say politely: "The customs and etiquette of your northern land are also quite distinctive." ”

As he spoke, his eyes were drawn to a vendor in front of him.

Meng Dazhu followed her line of sight.

is a vendor who sells rock sugar gourds.

The carriage did not stop, and Gigi quickly withdrew his gaze.

After returning to the Hou Mansion, Hengyu accompanied Mrs. Xiao to share lunch before returning to his courtyard.

Since learning about Meng Dazhu's affair, Jiang Media Officer has rushed into the official media yamen of Yingzhou in the past two days, and rarely see anyone.

Hengyu sat down in the study, and Jiji was grinding ink beside him.

Heng Yu picked up the pen and wrote a letter to his family, and the letter only mentioned his recent situation in Yingzhou, and did not explicitly mention the tattoo pattern.

After all, in the realm of Yingzhou, it is unknown whether the letter will pass through the hands of others before it is delivered to her home.

And although she did not say it explicitly in her letter, her brother must have been able to understand her progress from trivial words.

There is a tacit understanding between family members that others cannot see.

When it came time to write another letter, it was much more casual - it was for Her Royal Highness the eldest princess.

"Let people get out." After the ink dried, Hengyu folded the letter paper and put it in an envelope and handed it to Jiji.

Ji Ji took the two letters, blinked his eyes and asked, "Doesn't the girl write one to Shao Yan Langjun?" Before going out, Shao Yan Langjun had been instructed by a thousand times. ”

Heng Yu said: "I have greeted Shao Yan in the letter to His Highness. ”

Ji Ji didn't say much, and smiled: "Then the maid will ask someone to deliver the letter." ”

Hengyu covered his mouth and yawned and nodded.

When Jiji returned, he heard another maid, Cuihuai, say, "The girl is asleep." ”

Cuihuai is also the girl of the Ji family, and it was at the insistence of Ji Nanxian that Heng Yu nodded and agreed to bring it.

Knowing that their girl slept lightly, neither of them went in to disturb them, and the two little girls with their buns sat under the porch and basked in the sun.

"At this time in previous years, the girls were all wearing cloaks made by Shaoyan Langjun herself......" Ji Ji looked at the female envoy of the Hou Mansion who was sweeping the fallen leaves in the courtyard, and said with his cheeks raised: "I don't know when I will be able to return to Beijing." ”

"yes." Cuihuai nodded: "The soothing incense that Shao Yan Langjun made for the girl is almost running out." ”

Thinking of Shao Yan Langjun's various goodness, Ji Ji couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "There is really no more understanding, meticulous and virtuous man in the world than Shao Yan Langjun." ”

Acacia echoed very approvingly.

The envoy who swept the leaves seemed to have no distractions, but in fact, she had been paying attention to the conversation between the two with her ears up.

Soon, she left the courtyard with a bamboo basket containing fallen leaves.

He did not come back, but walked around the path through the verandah, and walked briskly in the direction of the main courtyard.

At that moment, Jiji and Cuihuai were still talking.

Until a little female envoy came over and said, "Miss Jiji, Captain Meng is looking for you and waiting outside." ”

Captain Meng?

Gigi got up without hesitation and walked out of the courtyard.

This is where her girl and Jiang Mingguan live, and it is not good for Captain Meng, as a man, to be invited into the hospital to talk at will.

"Captain Meng, but what's the matter?"

Outside the courtyard gate, Meng Dazhu waited with his hands behind his back and his burly figure straight under an old ginkgo tree.

Gigi asked as he approached him, his feet on the same golden yellow as his.

"Someone from my family just now sent this invitation - it was from my aunt to Master Ji." Meng Dazhu smiled and explained his intentions, and handed over the post with one hand.

Ji Ji took it and asked, "Did Mrs. Wen only invite my girl?" ”

And I made a special trip to send an invitation, although it is a businessman's home, but it is also very particular.

"It should be."

Gigi nodded and replied, "I'll tell the girl." ”

As he spoke, he raised his eyes and saw that Meng Dazhu looked a little speechless, and couldn't help asking, "Captain Meng, but there are other things?" ”

"Yes......" Meng Dazhu hesitated for another moment, and then suddenly stretched out his other hand behind his back to Ji Ji.

Gigi was startled at first, then stunned.

Under the golden ginkgo tree, a tall boy held a red and shiny sugar gourd.

“…… For me? Gigi pointed to the sugar gourd.

"Well, I think you should like to eat ......" the boy grinned, a little shy, a little nervous.

Gigi took it in a bit of a daze, and suddenly thought of the vendor selling sugar gourds she met on the street today—she was ...... Is it that obvious?

"Let's try it the same as your capital?" Seeing her take it, the smile on Meng Dazhu's face became more and more real.

Gigi took a bite.

"Is it sweet?" The young man stared at her with a pair of eyes and asked quite concernedly.

Ji Ji also smiled and showed a pair of tiger teeth, looked at him and said, "...... Sweet. ”

"That's good!" Meng Dazhu was overjoyed, as if he had completed a rather important military task.

Then he asked, "Gigi, are you...... What else do you like to eat? ”

Gigi thought for a moment and said seriously; "As long as it's delicious, I like it."

"Coincidentally!" Meng Dazhu scratched the back of his head and said, "Me too!" ”

A gust of wind came, and a few ginkgo biloba leaves swirled and fell, gently and softly on the shoulders of the two.

……

According to the date agreed on the invitation, Hengyu went out early the next morning.

The carriage left the long street where the Dingbei Hou Mansion was located, and Hengyu opened the curtain and looked out.

On the noisy and lively streets, all kinds of people came and went, Hengyu seemed to look at it casually for a moment, and then lowered the car curtain.

Then, casually confessed to the coachman: "Go to Yiyuan-"

The carriage was prepared by her family when she left Beijing, and the coachman was carefully selected by her brother and sister-in-law.

The business of the Yan family is all over the place, and Yingzhou, which is located on the border, is also indispensable to the Yan family's industry.

After Yan Jin entered the city and lived in an inn for two days, he moved into a courtyard called Yiyuan in Yingzhou.

Heng Yu had just gotten out of the carriage outside Yiyuan when he saw a good-looking young woman being sent out of the corner gate by Yan Jin's entourage.

"Take this for the little brother to eat and drink...... Please also ask the little brother to mention the slave family in front of Yan Langjun, don't let Yan Langjun forget the slave family......" The woman dressed in fancy clothes stuffed a dime of silver into the hands of her entourage and said softly.
