Chapter 40: Before leaving

The backyard of Yufu.

Huang Feihong and Yu Ke sat on the rattan chairs and chatted.

On the side, Zhang Shuyuan and Aunt Thirteen were also holding hands and whispering.

The two of them have known each other since they were children, and they haven't seen each other for six or seven years.

Now that old friends are reunited, there seems to be endless words.

"Feihong, didn't you go back to Guangzhou City half a month ago? How did you come back again? Yu Ke asked.

Huang Feihong glanced at Aunt Thirteen, then immediately moved his gaze back and said:

"I just want to come back and see. Guangzhou is not far from Foshan, and I just took the time to come back. ”

Yu Ke took in Huang Feihong's demeanor and showed a playful smile:

"Feihong, you're almost thirty this year, aren't you? Why are you still not married? ”

Huang Feihong's face was slightly red: "This, this, I'm still young, don't worry......"

Yu Ke leaned back in his chair to Huang Feihong's side and whispered, "What do you think of Miss Mo?" ”

"A few years younger than you, it's just right for you to be your wife."

Huang Feihong blushed and hurriedly said, "What are you talking nonsense?" Aunt Thirteen is a generation older than me, which is not suitable! ”

Yu Ke smiled: "Miss Mo is a cousin who recognizes her godsister, and she is not related by blood. What's the matter? ”

"You see that she is so good-looking and has a good personality......"

Huang Feihong interrupted with some embarrassment:

"Kezhi, don't talk nonsense anymore, this matter of men and women, I want the words of my parents to match the concubine, you are my younger brother, what are you fooling in?"

Huang Feihong couldn't hold back his voice in a hurry, which attracted strange glances from Zhang Shuyuan and Aunt Thirteen on the side.

Seeing this, Huang Feihong immediately recovered his complexion and pretended to be calm and took a sip of tea.

"Oh~ That's it."

Yu Ke also picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, and then continued:

"Since you don't have feelings for her, and grandpa has been looking for relatives for me recently, I think Miss Mo is good."

Before Yu Ke's words fell, Huang Feihong said loudly: "No! ”

"Feihong, what's not going to work?"

The thirteenth aunt on the side was startled by Huang Feihong's sudden loud voice, and hurriedly asked.

Yu Ke looked teasing and looked at Huang Feihong playfully.

Huang Feihong's face was flushed, and he wanted to show that nothing had happened, his expression was very strange, and he looked very funny.

He struggled to regain his indifferent face: "Huh? It's nothing, Kezhi discussed with me about martial arts. ”

Hearing this, the thirteenth aunt nodded and withdrew her gaze.

Huang Feihong grabbed Yu Ke's wrist, gritted his teeth and said:

"Isn't it enough to have a cousin? You're too greedy, aren't you? ”

Yu Ke said as a matter of course: "Isn't it normal for a husband to have three wives and four concubines?" ”

After that, he looked at Huang Feihong with a 'strange' face: "Feihong, you won't like Miss Mo, right?" ”

Huang Feihong was so hesitant when he heard the words that he couldn't say a complete sentence for a long time.

Yu Ke patted Huang Feihong on the shoulder:

"The atmosphere of our Han people is too subtle, and we are always ashamed to express our emotions, so why are we ashamed to say the word 'Zhongyi'?"

"There are flowers that can be broken straight and must be broken, don't wait for no flowers and empty branches."

Huang Feihong was stunned when he heard this, and retorted: "Kezhi you, this is ...... It's out of place. ”

Yu Ke waved his hand and asked bluntly: "I won't say much about you and Miss Mo, you can take care of it yourself." ”

"In a few days...... I'm going back to Guangxi, and I guess it will take at least half a year to get back. ”

"So long?" Huang Feihong was a little surprised, "Didn't you say before that you can deal with Guangxi's affairs in just half a year?" ”

Yu Ke shook his head and said, "I have other things to do. ”

According to the plan, after he broke through to the realm of refining the marrow, he would set off for the capital to assassinate Cixi.

After staying in Foshan for three days at most, Yu Ke will go north, take the waterway, and try to rush to the capital within a month.

Assassinating Cixi was not an easy task, and Yu Ke would not have acted easily without a well-thought-out plan.

However, Yu Ke already had a rough plan in mind.

I heard that Cixi is now older, and she is more and more worshipful of Buddhism and Taoism, and often invites 'high monks' and 'real people' to go to the palace to pray for her......

Yu Ke said: "Now that the Qing Dynasty is getting worse and worse, and the world is becoming more and more difficult and chaotic, you must help me take care of it at home." ”

Huang Feihong nodded solemnly:

"Don't worry, this is also my home, and I will come back from Guangzhou as soon as I have time."

"Besides, here in Guangzhou, our Yu and Huang families have deep-rooted connections, so nothing will happen."

Yu Ke smiled: "Hearing you say this, I'm relieved." ”

"When will you and Miss Mo get married, remember to send an invitation earlier, I will come back in time."

Huang Feihong rolled his eyes when he heard this, ignoring him.

Night.

The sky is clear, and the moon and stars are scarce.

Yu Ke was lying on the rattan chair with his wife in his arms, looking at the bright moon in the sky, and there were many thoughts in his mind.

Zhang Shuyuan asked, "Husband, are you going back to Guangxi in two days?" ”

Yu Ke nodded: "Yes, there are still many things to do over there." ”

"Don't worry, there won't be any danger, as soon as the matter is done, I will go back to Foshan immediately, at most...... Seven or eight months at most. ”

Zhang Shuyuan didn't hear Yu Ke's words insincerely, and muttered with an unswerving face:

"Huh? So long? I'll go with you. ”

Yu Ke smiled: "Then how can it be done." I'm in a barracks, and it's all men, and it's not appropriate for you to be a woman there. ”

"Then I'll go live in a nearby town."

Yu Ke shook his head: "No, it's not safe, it's not Foshan, I'm usually busy, and I don't worry if you have no one to protect me alone." ”

After that, Yu Ke looked at his wife with a serious expression:

"Don't think about coming to me secretly, it's only seven or eight months, and I'll be back and stay at home with peace of mind."

Zhang Shuyuan stared at Yu Ke's eyes tightly:

"Okay, I promise you. That...... Then you are not allowed to steal food outside! ”

Yu Ke pressed his wife's head into his arms: "Don't worry, if I want to marry another room, I must have your consent." ”

The wife was lying in Yu Ke's arms, and after a while, she suddenly said:

"Before, my grandfather said that he would marry you two more concubines. Now that I have negotiated with the matchmaker, they are all children of good families. ”

"Why don't you wait a little longer, marry the two-room concubine into the door, and then go to Guangxi?"

Yu Ke shook his head:

"I haven't seen those two concubines, and I don't know what the personality is, if the person who marries in the door is not a duty-keeping person, what should I do if I don't accept your eldest wife?"

"I'm willing to accept Xiaolan, or because she is the maid you grew up with."

Zhang Shuyuan heard Yu Ke say this, and his heart was warm.

"Then, what if Xiaolan and I can't conceive a child all the time?"

Yu Ke comforted: "That's not your fault. There is no urgency in this matter, you and I are still young, and we will have a lot of time in the future, and we will always get pregnant. ”

"Okay." Zhang Shuyuan obeyed.

The two quietly embraced each other, enjoying the quiet and warm atmosphere.

……

Two days later, in the early morning.

Yu Ke packed his luggage, said goodbye to his wife and a group of relatives and friends who saw him off, got into a carriage, and gradually drifted away.

There is a saying in "Xunzi Self-cultivation": "The road is long and the line is coming." The future is promising. ”
