Chapter 14 Trust

The visitor took two steps forward and stood directly under the shadow of the lamp.

The halberd had changed into a homely round-necked robe, he wore a jade crown on his head, sword eyebrows and starry eyes, and in the gentle light and shadow, there was a kind of alienated handsomeness.

He seemed to be in a good mood today, with a smile between his eyebrows.

"Why did Madame return at this time? It was freezing on this day, which made my husband wait for a long time. ”

Xie Zhiyun raised her eyebrows lightly, she hooked her lips and smiled: "The little grandfather never waits for me, he is courteous and courteous when he has nothing to do, he is either a traitor or a thief, I don't know why the little grandfather is?" ”

"Madame can always laugh."

The halberd took two steps forward and came directly to Xie Zhiyun.

His tall body seemed to be able to cover the sky and the sun, and shelter the cold wind in the evening.

Xie Zhiyun tilted his head slightly, looking directly at his handsome face.

No wonder he is so decisive in killing, his hands are stained with blood, and the unmarried ladies in the entire Yezhou City are also fond of him and want to marry him.

The halberd also looked at her, and the eyes of the two sparked in the lamplight, and the halberd smiled softly, reached out and brushed her ear, helping her put on the hood.

"It's cold, Madame be careful not to catch a cold."

With that, the halberd gently lifted her waist and led her down another path.

"Father wants to see you."

Xie Zhiyun's footsteps paused slightly, and her slender waist couldn't help but hit the big hand of the halberd, even through the thin cloak, she could feel the heat of the palm of the halberd's hand.

"Why is my father looking for me?"

Wei Ji hooked his lips and chuckled: "Mother suddenly contracted a cold today, and there is no chaos in the house for the time being, but it will be difficult to say in a few days." ”

"You are the eldest daughter-in-law, why did you say that your father is looking for you?"

Xie Zhiyun took a deep breath and said, "Mother Fang Cai said this. ”

Her tone was light, not sad or happy, and she couldn't hear emotions.

But she still stood at a distance, not moving half a step, and the halberd turned sideways to look at her face again.

The sunset melts gold, like a thick and colorful picture scroll, falling on Xie Zhiyun's delicate and delicate eyebrows.

She is a young lady who was carefully raised by the Xie clan, she walks, sits and lies elegantly, and at any time outside the Chunhua Court, she is an elegant young lady with eyebrows and smiles.

The same is true at the moment.

Wei Ji looked at the corners of her shallowly curled lips, her throat was a little hoarse, but she still asked, "Madame, do you mean okay or not?" ”

Xie Zhiyun raised his eyes and glanced at him, turned around and left.

"Let's hear what my father has to say."

The halberd looked at her back, chuckled, and slowly moved behind her with his heels raised.

When they came to Rongjingtang, the two of them were directly invited to the study on the second floor by Attendant Zhao.

There were two young attendants standing outside the door of the study, and Xie Zhiyun knew that they were from the army when he looked at them.

waited until Attendant Zhao entered the study to report before he came out to invite the two of them in.

This is the second time Xie Zhiyun has accompanied Wei Ji to Wei Cang's study.

Wei Cang's study has three rooms, inside and outside, and the study and library inside are blocked by the grille, which is not real.

Wei Cang summoned outsiders to the tea room outside.

As soon as Xie Zhiyun and Wei Ji entered the study, they saw Wei Cang sitting at the tea table, making tea in a clay stove.

Like the halberd, he didn't know what vassal elegance was, and he didn't know what tea was, so he would only pour hot water directly into the teapot and wait for a while before eating.

Xie Zhiyun didn't see it, she saluted with the halberd, and sat on the side waiting for him to make tea.

Wei Cang didn't look at her, but asked Wei Ji: "Have you eaten?" ”

Wei Ji shook his head and said, "I just came back, and I didn't use my dinner, and Zhiyun shouldn't have used it." ”

Xie Zhiyun immediately whispered: "Father, my daughter-in-law has just returned from tiredness, and Cousin Ru has already taken medicine, and her illness is difficult to resolve, and she still needs to be maintained. ”

Wei Cang nodded and said, "You bothered." ”

Xie Zhiyun didn't know what to say.

Wei Cang is bold and straightforward, he is a famous hero in North Vietnam and even the entire Central Plains, he has been in the army since he was young, and now he has been in the army for 20 years.

Unlike the young and vigorous Halberd, Xie Zhiyun has never felt a strong bloody aura on him, but this does not mean that he is old and has no intention of killing.

On the contrary, such a Wei Cang makes people feel extremely terrifying.

When the outward breath is reined in, all that remains is the determination to not flinch.

In front of Wei Cang, Xie Zhiyun never talked nonsense, and he was very respectful, but Wei Ji was not afraid of him at all, and laughed after sitting down.

Wei Cang glared at his son: "What are you laughing at?" ”

Wei Ji took the teapot in his hand and said with a smile: "It's rare to see my father make tea by himself, it's not Uncle Zhao's job?" ”

Wei glanced at him, and snorted at Xie Zhiyun, asking him to save some face for himself in front of his daughter-in-law.

The halberd chuckled.

"I'll make tea, Daddy," Wei Ji changed his homely title, "If you have anything to say, you can just tell Zhiyun directly." ”

Xie Zhiyun listened to these words, raised his eyes carefully, and saw that the father and son were squeezing their eyebrows there, and they were very harmonious on weekdays, and there was no strangeness at all.

She was a little envious in her heart.

However, she never said this envy, but only followed the words of the halberd: "Father, please speak, daughter-in-law is listening." “

Seeing her obedient and pure appearance, Wei Ji felt funny in his heart, but the teapot in his hand reached out to her and poured her a bowl of tea.

This is just the most ordinary tea, but Xie Zhiyun tastes a little sweet and elegant.

Wei Cang secretly watched the movements of his son and daughter-in-law for a while, and he was very relieved, and he tried to squeeze out some love on his face.

"Eldest daughter-in-law, you also know that your mother has been sick recently, she is an old problem, and her body will be weaker in winter, and now that our government has a lot of affairs, she can't be burdened, so this errand can only fall on you."

Xie Zhiyun's hand holding the teacup paused slightly, she didn't agree immediately, but just said in a low voice: "Father, there are so many elders in the family, and the daughter-in-law is soft-spoken, so she really doesn't dare to take on this heavy responsibility." ”

Wei Cang married a total of four women in his life.

Wei Ji's mother was his original wife, at that time he was just a poor soldier, and Wei Ji's mother was just an ordinary village woman, but the young couple and Mei Mei, they had Wei Ji after only half a year of marriage.

Helplessly, the sky is not beautiful, and good things are difficult to achieve, Liu had a difficult birth when he gave birth to a halberd, and finally tossed half a life before giving birth to him.

Soon after giving birth to him, he died of blood, which is also pitiful.

At that time, there was a young widow rescued by the Liu family in their family, she was young at that time, and she felt sorry for her son before the collapse of the Liu family, so she asked Wei Cang to take this widow as a concubine so that she could take care of her son to grow up.

Before Wei Ji was three years old, Wei Cang began to follow Yezhou Mu Chen Qing from birth to death, and he entrusted his young sister, concubine and son to Yezhou Mu Mansion, so that they could have something to eat.

Three years later, Wei Cang became famous and became a fierce general by Chen Qing's side, he saved Chen Qing's life, and he was brave and courageous, and won Chen Qing's trust.

It is precisely because of this that he was able to marry the daughter of the side branch of the Cui family and became his stepfamily.

Later, he passed through Jingzhou during the war, and by chance saved a kabuki, who is now the second lady Lu.

Therefore, in the Guogong Mansion at this time, counting the concubine Zhang, there are a total of three wives.

However, Zhang's family eats fasting and recites Buddha all day long, and even Wei Ningshu, who came out of her, doesn't care about it at all, and the second lady Lu is from that background, and she has never been in charge of the house since she started.

Although she has not taken care of it, she is also an elder.

Xie Zhiyun can't be a daughter-in-law and go beyond the elders to take care of the housekeeper, even if she is willing to manage it, she can manage it well, but she has to let the whole family agree.

She's never a thankless deal.

As soon as Wei Ji heard this, he understood, and he glanced at her, and there was a mocking smile in his eyebrows.

This time, he was secretly glaring at him and replaced it with Xie Zhiyun.

Wei Cang didn't care, he waved his hand and said, "Wei Rong's mother doesn't understand this, he can't be a family, the eldest daughter-in-law, you look at these people in the family, and you can do it with your mother." ”

Xie Zhiyun: "......"

This is too bad for the second lady, Yu Hanzhao and Ji Xiuxiu.

But what Wei Cang said was not wrong at all.

Xie Zhiyun lowered his eyes, his slender neck outlined a perfect arc, and he was a little happy in his heart.

Wei Cang naturally couldn't see the smugness in her heart, he continued: "The affairs at home are nothing more than those trivial matters, you can just take care of them at will, but the outside affairs are more troublesome." ”

Xie Zhiyun subconsciously looked at the halberd, and saw that he nodded at himself, so he asked hesitantly: "Father, but is it about helping the homeless?" ”

The father and son glanced at each other, and Wei Cang laughed out loud with relief.

"Boss, my father has chosen you the best daughter-in-law in the world, you have to thank me."

The halberd was subtle.

"Zhiyun is quite acceptable, not as good as Daddy's praise."

Xie Zhiyun kicked him from under the table, and smiled dignified at Wei Cang: "Father is too prestigious, since my father thinks that his daughter-in-law can take on this important responsibility, then the daughter-in-law of the government can try to take care of it, after all, there is still a mother-in-law at home, and my aunt is also willing to teach her daughter-in-law, and if your daughter-in-law doesn't understand, you can ask the two elders." ”

"But this Yongfeng warehouse matter, the daughter-in-law has little experience."

Wei Cang waved his hand: "Look at it, you can't learn, besides, there is no boss here." ”

Wei Cangpu slapped Wei Ji's shoulder with his big hand, Xie Zhiyun only heard a pop sound, but Wei Ji's back was straight and he didn't move.

"The two of you will be responsible for the resettlement of the displaced people, the relief of food, etc.," Wei Cang made a final decision, "Boss, daughter-in-law, my father believes that you will definitely be able to do a good job, you are all excellent." ”

This ecstasy soup was poured down, and Xie Zhiyun didn't even have time to refuse, so he was kicked out of the study with Wei Cang on the pretext of hurrying back to dinner.

After the two of them walked in the cold wind for a while, Xie Zhiyun asked Wei Ji with hindsight: "Why did you agree so easily, it was a foreign matter, what if you can't do it well?" ”

The halberd walked side by side with him, his steps were not slow, and he was covered with a plain black cloak, like a towering tree in the dark night, which could shelter people from the wind and rain.

Hearing Xie Zhiyun's question, Wei Ji turned his head and looked at her fixedly.

The brilliant lights lit up his deep starry eyes.

Xie Zhiyun only heard his deep voice dyed with laughter.

"Madame is so intelligent," the halberd paused, "she must be competent." ”
