Chapter 190: Being an Uncle
In Xu Qi's dilapidated shack, Yue Wuyi sighed as soon as he came in: "Thanks to Mrs. Xu, this house is really different." ”
Wei Xiangjun was taking the pulse pillow from the medicine box, and when he heard this, he understood that it was not the first time that Yue Wuyi had come back.
Xu Qi was exiled to Weixi, and Yue Wuyi gave a lot of care.
Although he is a coolie, Xu Qi is simply here to be an uncle when he was in Sutuo Mountain.
According to his own words, with the prospecting skills he learned in Mount Sutuo, he only needs to give instructions on the side on weekdays, and no one really dares to let him go to the mine.
In view of this, even if he was dissatisfied with Yue Wuyi, Wei Xiangjun couldn't give people a cold face.
When Xu Qi came back, Yue Wuyi's head and neck were full of silver needles.
The doctor is benevolent, and Wei Xiangjun really wants to help him cure his illness.
At this time, Yue Wuyi couldn't move, and Wei Xiangjun reminded him that it was best for him not to speak, so he greeted Xu Qi with his eyes.
Xu Qi sat across from him, which pot was not opened, "General Yue is here to send Mrs. Zun?" ”
Wei Xiangjun coughed lightly as a warning.
As if he hadn't heard it, Xu Qi stretched out his hand and poured himself a cup of tea, "That's fine, our General Yue left behind his children's affection, and he can kill the enemy wholeheartedly, just waiting to achieve a great cause." However, I heard that there is still a beautiful girl hidden in your tent, so this is ...... Can't boast! ”
"Xu Qi!"
Wei Xiangjun couldn't listen to it anymore.
"Fifth brother is tired, right?"
It had to be Chang Fu, who was sitting by the door basking in the sun, and came in and said, "I'll go get a basin of water, and you come out to clean your noodles first?" ”
"The ladies are married, what's the use of washing so clean?"
Xu Qi said, slanting a glance at Wei Xiangjun, "I've been busy outside for most of the day, and I didn't even have a bite to chew when I went back to the house." I might as well take a concubine here, at least someone knows how cold and hot. ”
If it weren't for someone in the house, Wei Xiangjun would have kicked it over.
He ridiculed Yue Wuyi, but chose what Wei Xiangjun didn't like to hear the most.
Chang Fu also wanted to be a round, so he hurriedly responded, "Fifth brother, I'll do it!" ”
"Go aside!"
Xu Qi glared at him, "The one you made is called pig food!" ”
Wei Xiangjun knew that Xu Qi was finding fault, and he didn't intend to make him proud, so he said to Chang Fu: "Don't pay attention to him, he's spilling with me, go back and see how your fifth brother rolls on the spot!" ”
didn't hold back for a while, Chang Fu came out with a smile, until he was swept by Xu Qi's eyes.
Wei Xiangjun looked at the sun outside, and it was indeed time to prepare to eat.
"If General Yue doesn't dislike our coarse tea and light rice, why don't you stay and use some?"
Wei Xiangjun said politely.
"Eventful!"
Xu Qi sneered, "People add fragrance to their red sleeves, can they still rarity your craftsmanship?" ”
"There's Mrs. Lao Xu!"
Yue Wuyi agreed simply, and instructed Chang Fu, "The Dingsheng wine in Pingyang Town is excellent, you go and get a pot." ”
Chang Fu came back from a good drink, Yue Wuyi's needle had been pulled out, and he was talking to Xu Qi in the house at this time.
The earthen stove outside the shack was already steaming. Wei Xiangjun is busy.
Chang Fu brought the dishes to the table, Yue Wuyi personally poured a cup for Xu Qi, and was about to pour it for himself, when Wei Xiangjun came in with a bowl of soup cakes and stopped: "If General Yue doesn't want to be tossed by head wind every day, the first thing is to quit drinking." ”
Yue Wuyi was also obedient, and immediately put down the wine glass.
On the other end, Xu Qi suddenly lost his vividness, hanging his head, looking listless.
Wei Xiangjun went up and pushed him, "There is a guest at home, let you accompany you to talk, you wilted first, but you want to lose me?" ”
It was a joke between husband and wife, if it was in the past, Xu Qi would definitely have to come back.
But now, as if he hadn't heard, he didn't know what he was thinking.
"Did he take the wrong medicine?"
Wei Xiangjun looked at Yue Wuyi.
Yue Wuyi shook his head, looking at the couple, his heart was inexplicable.
When Xu Qiwei married Miss Wei, he simply explored his thoughts, but people didn't look down on him at all.
The marriage didn't go well. But after becoming a parent, the husband and wife are harmonious, and it depends on their talk and laughter at the moment, which is also envious.
In addition to envy, Yue Wuyi was a little stunned, and unconsciously picked up the wine glass in front of him, wanting to drown his sorrows with wine, but he didn't want the cup to be empty, like his state of mind at the moment.
Xu Qi poured his head at this time, drank all the wine in the cup, and put it down heavily.
Wei Xiangjun is sure that Xu Qi is unhappy about something.
But just now she was outside, and she didn't hear the argument inside.
"What's going on?"
Wei Xiangjun asked.
It was still Yue Wuyi who took over, "There is a report from Liang Guo's side, Xu Guogong is seriously ill, and he heard that the court is in turmoil, and he is arguing about whether to abolish the Qi Liang Alliance. ”
Wei Xiangjun suddenly realized, and couldn't help but look at Xu Qi, "But are you worried about Xu Guogong?" ”
Xu Qi raised his eyes, his face was a little pale, "The love of flesh and blood is justified." I'm worried about what, as a prisoner, I can't go anywhere. ”
"I'm sorry, this is good news for Jibei."
Yue Wuyi was telling the truth.
Everyone in the world knows that the alliance between Qi and Liang was facilitated by Xu Guogong. In the eyes of Jibei people, he is not a sinner.
Xu Qi simply sat up straight, "The two countries are fighting each other, and each has its own position. General Yue looked at the victory. It can be seen that because you didn't wipe out the remnants of Qi Liang, you left yourself with troubles. Qi Liang is now in a state of backwater, and may be in a state of collapse from now on, just waiting to become the fish of Jibei. But there are still people who are not convinced. What do you think they're going to do at times like this? ”
"The soldiers will come to block, and the water will flood the earth. General Ben waited for them. ”
After staring at Yue Wuyi for a while, Xu Qi opened his mouth, "If it's me, capture the thief and capture the king first!" ”
Yue Wuyi was amused, "Xu Qi, if you are from Jibei, his military achievements are world-famous, and I may not be stronger than you." But you are precisely from Liang Guo, and what you say at this moment, to my ears, is a threat. ”
"Let me, the prisoner of the ranks, speak from my heart."
Xu Qi chuckled and poured himself another glass of wine, "I'll tell you, what kind of crisis Jibei will have." Thousands of miles of embankment, collapsed in the anthill. However, after a victory, General Yue got carried away, and the Yue family army was slack from top to bottom. For the handsome, the woman is lazy, and even leaves the concubine in the barracks, there will be people who will work up and down, and in the end there may be a discouragement of the army. Have you ever thought that this loophole has been revealed, if it is not patched in time, not only will General Yue be killed, but it will also ......"
"Presumptuous!"
Yue Wuyi was furious, "Xu Qi, let me tell you, as long as I Yue Wuyi is here, Jibei will never be stepped on by any foreign enemy!" Death, I've never been afraid! ”
Yue Wuyi walked outside angrily, and Wei Xiangjun hurriedly chased him out.
"Mrs. Xu, I'm offended!"
Yue Wuyi hugged his fists.
Wei Xiangjun explained: "He drank a little too much, and it was inevitable that he would say what was in his heart. His mother is from Jibei, and he grew up in Si. Liang Guo and Jibei have a feud, both sides are relatives, and Xu Qi may not be without pain in his heart. As for the threat, he could never be. ”
Wei Xiangjun's back was full of cold sweat. Xu Qi was kind to remind, but Yue Wuyi may not understand. What Wei Xiangjun is afraid of is that if something really happens to Yue Wujiao, some people will think of Xu Qi's words today, but he won't cause trouble.
"If Xu Qi has wolf ambitions, I can't drink with him today!"
Yue Wuyi is quite reasonable.
Wei Xiangjun breathed a sigh of relief, "Why don't you finish eating and then leave?" ”
"I'm going back. By the way, thank you Mrs. Xu, for taking good care of Fuhui all the way, and ...... later"
"The matter of the county lord, the general doesn't need to mention it again. You and I have different positions, and if we continue to talk about it, everyone will not be happy. ”
The topic turned to the county lord of Fuhui, and Wei Xiangjun told him the truth.
In her heart, no matter what the last resort reason Yue Wuyi had, he finally failed the county lord of Fuhui. That can't be changed.
Nodding, Xu Qi was leaving.
Wei Xiangjun stopped the person again, "General Yue's medicine, the concubine made her own opinion, and gave the recipe to Chang Fu." When he took the medicine, he had to let me debate the truth first, so that no one with a heart would make trouble about it. As for the decoction, it can only be handed over to Chang Fu, and it must not be faked to others. ”
After staring at Wei Xiangjun for a moment, Yue Wuyi said, "You don't have to always guard against her......"
"What the concubine thinks is not only for the safety of General Yue, but also for the sake of the country. If you don't listen, I can't help it. The concubine is gone! ”
Wei Xiangjun turned around and was about to go back to the house.
Yue Wuyi gave in in the end, "Chang Fu, you will listen to Mrs. Xu's arrangement in the future!" ”
"Subordinates obey!"
Wei Xiangjun stopped, and said: "The terrain here is complicated, and it is not suitable for General Yue to come often, and ten days later, the concubine went to Wusheng Pass to revisit the general." Last time, I told the military doctors that you were injured that day, and you had a blood clot in your brain that day, and you were too tired on weekdays, which caused you to have an unbearable headache. The concubine will help you with acupuncture first, and it is best if you can dissolve the stasis on your own. If it doesn't work, the concubine will open your head and bleed. ”
Chang Fu was dumbfounded when he heard it on the side, "Open your head?" ”
"What if you don't open your skull?"
"When you get old, General Yue is only afraid that he will linger on the bed, and turn around to eat, drink, and trouble Miss Chu, I am afraid that you will be distressed."
Wei Xiangjun's words were somewhat sarcastic.
When Wei Xiangjun entered the room, Xu Qi was lying on the table.
He drank a little too much today, so naturally his heart hurt.
Although Wei Xiangjun wanted to help him back to the bed, he was already injured, and he didn't dare to push too hard. Unfortunately, Chang Fu went to send Yue Wujiao again, and no one helped him, so Wei Xiangjun could only let it go.
Afraid that Xu Qi would catch a cold, Wei Xiangjun took his cloak and just put it on this person, but he opened his eyes.
"Go and rest on the couch!"
Wei Xiangjun urged, pretending not to see the sadness in Xu Qi's eyes, and he was not happy to save this death.
"The old man is leaving."
Xu Qi was still lying on his stomach, "Except for my father, he is my closest friend." Although the old man gave me a lot of stumbling blocks, I didn't make him happy for a few days. In the previous life, the old man fell in the battle for the throne of the Liang State, and I was also thrown to Sutuo Mountain. Later, he relieved himself, and the first thing he did was to send me to Wusheng Pass. Later, I found out that he knew that he was dying, and took care of everything, including letting me avoid the dispute between the DPRK and China......"
After a moment of silence, Wei Xiangjun asked, "Do you want to see him for the last time?" ”
"See what, it's fate!"
Xu Qi picked up the wine jug and poured it into his mouth, "When I left Chang'an, I already knew that I couldn't go back." ”
Wei Xiangjun didn't ask again, just watched, and a tear slowly fell from Xu Qi's cheek.
