There was a burst of drinking and playing cards in the wing room of the courtyard.

Youqing heard it in the backyard.

Qi Jianfei brought a few people here today, and I heard that they are all the sons of those high-ranking generals under Qi Guangyuan, the marshal of Beijiang, and they are all very powerful in Beijiang.

The group was lively, Xiao Hechuan did not let Youqing attend, only let her stay in the backyard.

Youqing finished her homework, she glanced at the clock, it was already late, but the wine party in the front yard was obviously not dispersed yet.

Youqing was a little uneasy, thinking of going to the front yard to take a sneak peek, she was a little worried about Xiao Hechuan, afraid that he would drink too much.

Several young men in the wing room were sitting there in a big way, but Xiao Hechuan stood up, holding a bottle of wine in his hand, and filled the wine glasses for the young people one by one.

When it was Qi Jianfei's turn, Qi Jianfei seemed a little unbearable, he stood up and took the wine bottle from Xiao Hechuan's hand, and said, "Uncle Jiu, I'll come." ”

"No, you don't." Xiao Hechuan pressed Qi Jianfei back to his seat and personally poured wine for everyone.

"I didn't expect the famous Xiao Jiuye to pour wine for us one day." A young man sat there with his hands in his pockets, smiling.

"No, Uncle Nine, thank you." Another youth is also a hippie smiley.

"Well said." Xiao Hechuan also smiled and raised the wine glass in his hand.

Finally, those people are gone.

Youqing watched Xiao Hechuan sitting in the courtyard, and she silently stepped forward and sat down beside him, leaning on his shoulder.

"I'll study hard." Her voice was soft, and she spoke to him.

Xiao Hechuan held her hand and let out a low "um".

"In the future, I will raise you, and I don't want you to be angry with them anymore." Youqing sat up and looked at him very seriously.

Xiao Hechuan couldn't help laughing, he hugged her and said, "Okay, then I'll eat soft rice too." ”

"I mean really." Youqing still looks very serious.

The smile on the corner of Xiao Hechuan's lips faded a little, he looked at Youqing's eyes, and said slowly, "Let you study in order to realize your own dreams, Youqing, I never thought of hiding you in my arms, you are not only my wife, you are also yourself." Don't interrupt your studies because of me. ”

"Hmm." Youqing's heart was a little sour, she lowered her head and said softly, "I feel very uncomfortable watching them treat you like that." ”

"It's nothing," Xiao Hechuan comforted her in turn, "In the past, thanks to Zuyin, no matter where I went, others respected me for two points, and in the future, I will rely on myself, you can rest assured, I will not let you suffer and suffer." ”

Youqing naturally believed him, she snuggled against his chest, listening to his strong and powerful heartbeat, and the two didn't speak for a while, until Xiao Hechuan leaned down and kissed her on the cheek, he still had four years, enough for him to ascend to a high position and give her a better life.

Since that day, Xiao Hechuan has been very busy, and Youqing often can't see him for a long time.

And her schoolwork is getting more and more, Xiao Hechuan still hired a tutor for her, but it is still very difficult to learn. From Nanchi to Jincheng, and then from Jincheng to Beijiang, the teaching materials in the three places are different, and Youqing has easily adapted to the teaching rhythm of Jincheng, and now she has to start again.

She doesn't feel bitter, as long as she can be with Xiao Hechuan, she is willing, compared to Xiao Hechuan's dedication to her, what can she do be counted?

After finishing the last homework, Youqing couldn't help but yawn, she looked at the clock on the side, it was already more than eleven o'clock in the middle of the night.

And Xiao Hechuan has not come back yet, and his house is also dark.

A trace of worry appeared in Youqing's eyes, she packed up her things, and just as she wanted to go to rest, she heard the sound of a car driving into the front yard.

Her eyes lit up, and she knew that Xiao Hechuan was back.

Xiao Hechuan was very drunk this night, he got out of the car, he thought that Youqing should have fallen asleep at this point, but he didn't expect to see Youqing walking out of his house as soon as he stepped into the backyard.

"Uncle Nine." Youqing smelled the strong smell of wine and looked at him very distressed.

"Did I wake you up?" Xiao Hechuan was a little unbearable, and raised his hand to touch her face.

"No, why did you drink so much?" Youqing held his arm.

Xiao Hechuan smiled, he didn't want to tell her, he didn't want her to worry, he didn't want her to worry, he didn't want her to know that he couldn't drink those wines.

"It's nothing, I met a few brothers and drank more." Xiao Hechuan understated and helped himself into the house by Youqing.

"Is it uncomfortable?" Youqing twisted a hot handkerchief to wipe his face, her eyes were like water, and she was full of distress.

"It's not uncomfortable." Xiao Hechuan's heart softened and he held her in his arms.

"Uncle Nine, is it worth it?" The tip of Youqing's nose became sour, she looked at his bloodshot eyes due to alcoholism, and also looked at his jaw that was more and more defined due to thinness, and gently asked those three words, "Is it worth it?" ”

"No one loves me, not even my parents are willing to give up their lives for me, why would you want to?" Youqing's tears rushed to her eyes, and she choked up, "Why are you willing......

"You are the palm of my hand." Xiao Hechuan raised his hand to wipe away tears for her, he held her face, and told her gently, "It's okay, everything will be fine." ”

Youqing looked at him with teary eyes, she looked at his lips and kissed him gently.

Her breath was sweet and beautiful, and Xiao Hechuan couldn't help but clasp the back of her head and deepen this kiss.

The lingering between the lips and teeth attracts people to sink, especially when they have drunk and seem to be drunk.

Xiao Hechuan's breathing gradually became hotter, and the big hand around her waist couldn't control the strength, he thought, he thought about it in his dreams, but when he was in a state of confusion, he still forced himself to stop.

"Uncle Nine," Youqing's face flushed, and he said almost inaudibly, "I, can I stay with you tonight?" ”

Xiao Hechuan kissed her hair, and said with a smile in a dumb voice, "No, I drank too much." ”

Youqing didn't understand a little, Xiao Hechuan looked at her clear eyes, only felt a pain in his heart, he whispered "silly girl", got up and carried Youqing back to her room.

Still reluctant, reluctant to move her at this time.

Qijiabao.

"Qi Dashuai."

Xiao Hechuan stood under the tang, his figure straight, and spoke to the man on the main seat.

"Lao Jiu," Qi Guangyuan put down the telegram in his hand, he looked at the young man in front of him, and sighed, "Hey, the hero is sad to pass the beauty pass." ”

After finishing speaking, he stood up and approached Xiao Hechuan, "When I was in Xingang before, I saw that you led troops, I have nothing to say, I will give you the strength of the two battalions under Feng Changsheng now, and after training, I will ...... in the future."

Qi Guangyuan didn't say much about the rest of the words, but the implication was self-evident, after the training was done and the military merits were established, it would be good to rise to prominence in the future.

"Thank you, Dashuai Qi." Xiao Hechuan saluted Qi Guangyuan.

"You're welcome," Qi Guangyuan patted Xiao Hechuan on the shoulder and said in a heartfelt manner, "You still call me eldest brother as usual." ”

"As for the child, bring it to me and your sister-in-law when you have time, you have just arrived in Beijiang, let her come to our house more often, there are many girls in our family, and we can pass the time."

"Yes." Xiao Hechuan nodded and spit out a word.
