When they arrived at the General's Mansion, Qi Changhong was not in the mansion, and it was Qi Erye and his wife who entertained them.

"Big brother knew that you would come over today, and wanted to stay with you a little longer, so he went to order troops earlier. Behold, the hour should be coming back soon, so sit down for a while. ”

Second Master Qi brought them into the hall and sat down, and the maids rushed in with refreshments.

Today is the day when Qi Mingle returns to the door, Qi Changhong is not there, and he will be accompanied by Qi Erye and his wife for the time being. Second Master Qi is now working in the Ministry of Industry, and Zhang Yuanxiu is also a colleague, the two of them chatted about the affairs of the court, and the second lady Qi talked to Qi Mingle.

Second Mrs. Qi asked, "Are you still used to spending the past few days at your husband's house?" ”

"Habitual." It's only two days.

Although they live under the same roof, on weekdays, Mrs. Qi and Qi Mingle don't have much communication, and now the two of them sit together and talk, and what they say is basically a scene.

After a while, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps outside, mixed with the sound of armor crashing.

Qi Mingle immediately lifted his skirt and ran out.

As soon as Qi Changhongfu returned home, he heard that Qi Mingle and them were back, and he didn't even change his armor, so he came over directly. As soon as he stepped into the courtyard, he saw Qi Mingle coming out of the house.

Since returning to Beijing, Qi Changhong has never worn this armor again.

As soon as Qi Minglefu came out, he was stunned when he saw Qi Changhong, who was wearing battle armor and walking towards her. The next moment, Qi Changhong's thick and dry palm had fallen on the top of her head and rubbed it: "What? It's only been two days since I got married, and I don't know my father? ”

"It's been a long time since I've seen you wearing this armor."

"One year, five months and six days." Qi Changhong reported the exact time.

While their father and daughter were talking, Zhang Yuanxiu and the second master and wife of the Qi family also came out.

"Father-in-law."

"Big brother."

After greeting them, Qi Changhong went to unload his armor first. Seeing that Qi Mingle was still standing under the corridor waiting for Qi Changhong, Zhang Yuanxiu didn't go in, so he simply waited with her.

Soon, Qi Changhong, who had changed his robe, came over.

Seeing that the couple were still standing under the porch, they immediately strode forward and urged: "It's freezing this day, what are you doing standing here?" Let's go, get inside. ”

Today, Qi Mingle returned to the door with his husband, and the happiest person was Qi Changhong. He was satisfied with Zhang Yuanxiu, his son-in-law, and he spent more time talking to Zhang Yuanxiu than Qi Mingle.

Qi Mingle felt a little sour in his heart, but when he saw that Qi Changhong was happy, he went with him.

After having lunch in the General's Mansion, it wasn't until the sky was twilight that Qi Changhong reluctantly said: "Okay, it's not early, you can go back with Yuan Xiu." ”

"Can't I just stay here for one night?" Qi Mingle didn't want to go.

Tomorrow, Father Qi is going to Litang Pass, he goes, their father and daughter don't know when they will see each other again, she wants to stay with him for a while.

Qi Changhong was also reluctant to Qi Mingle, but now Qi Mingle is married, not as good as when he was still in the boudoir.

Qi Changhong was about to refuse ruthlessly, but Zhang Yuanxiu beside him had already taken the first step to answer: "Then I will come over tomorrow and see off my father-in-law with you." ”

"Oh, okay." Qi Mingle immediately responded with joy.

Since Zhang Yuanxiu agreed, Qi Changhong naturally would not refuse. After saying goodbye, Zhang Yuanxiu left alone.

Qi Mingle went to help Qi Changhong pack his bags, and asked about Litang Pass. Qi Changhong wiped his treasure knife and said confidently: "Don't worry, my father has been dealing with Rong Di for more than ten years, and I know it." ”

After saying this, Qi Changhong asked again about the Zhang family.

"Easy to get along with." Qi Mingle said that she had helped Zhang's mother regain the jade pendant on the street before discussing her marriage, "When I was serving tea yesterday, my mother-in-law saw me, but she was surprised and delighted!" And today's homecoming gift was also prepared by her personally! ”

When a woman marries and marries, in addition to her husband, the relationship between her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is also extremely important. Hearing Qi Mingle say this, Qi Changhong was relieved.

On the second day, Qi Changhong was about to lead the troops to the battle.

Zhang Yuanxiu came to the General's Mansion early and sent Qi Changhong out of the city with Qi Mingle. Since Jiang Xige made peace, Emperor Xuan issued an order to let the crown prince Jiang Yu supervise the country.

Today, the army set off, and Jiang Yu personally came to the city gate to see them off.

Although Jiang Yu is only a half-old child now, he has the bearing of a prince in his gestures, and he said to Qi Changhong: "Alone in Shangjing, waiting for the general to return triumphantly." ”

"The minister will not fail in his mission." Qi Changhong solemnly saluted Jiang Yu, then turned over and got on his horse and ordered, "Let's go." ”

For a while, the flag fluttered to cover the sky and the sun, and the soldiers marched out of the city.

Qi Mingle stood in the crowd, looking at Qi Changhong's back as he walked away, his eyes couldn't help but flush.

Qi Mingzhao stayed at the border, and now Father Qi has also gone to Litang Pass, and from now on, she will be left alone, alone in Shangjing.

On the way back to Zhang's house, Qi Mingle didn't speak, only stared out the window in a daze.

Zhang Yuanxiu raised his eyes and looked at her several times, but Qi Mingle didn't notice it. It wasn't until they were halfway through the line that Qi Mingle suddenly turned his head and asked without warning, "Can I go shopping and then go home?" ”

Zhang Yuanxiu was stunned, he didn't ask anything, he just bowed his head and said, "Yes." ”

"Then you're busy with your going, I've had enough shopping and I'll go back by myself." After speaking, Qi Mingle got up and got out of the carriage and left with Yinsui.

Seeing this, Zhang Yuanxiu swallowed back the words that had originally surged to his lips, and he ordered lightly: "Turn around and go to the official office." ”

After separating from Zhang Yuanxiu, Qi Mingle went to the horse store to rent two horses, one for each of her and Yinsui, and went out of the city after beating the horses.

In the past, when Qi Mingle was in a bad mood, he would ride a horse for a ride.

Although the sky is sunny today, the snow has not yet melted, and the cold wind is still as cold as a knife, but Qi Mingle not only does not feel cold, but has a kind of long-lost pleasure.

Since returning to Beijing, she has never run happily on a horse, this is the first time. After running enough, Qi Mingle touched the horse's neck, raised his eyes to look at the frost-white mountains and forests in front of him, and the depression in his heart gradually dissipated.

After that, Qi Mingle went to the horse shop to return the horse, and then took Yinsui back to Zhang's house.

Qi Mingle stayed in the General's Mansion last night, and she had to go to see Su Qinlan first after she came back, but she was sweating from running a horse before, and Qi Mingle planned to go back to the courtyard to change her clothes and skirts. But they didn't want to, and as they passed through the garden, a big dog with a sturdy body suddenly jumped out without warning, baring its teeth and pounced on them.

"Dog !!" Silver Spike screamed, and when he jumped up to the tree, he hugged the trunk and shivered.

In an instant, the dog had jumped in front of Qi Mingle and opened its bloody mouth. Yinsui screamed, took out a dart and was about to stab at the dog, but Qi Mingle took the first step and knocked the dog to the ground.

"Little Flower !!" An anxious and angry female voice suddenly sounded.

Yinsui turned his head, and saw Zhang Yunyao with the maid, hurriedly running out from behind the corridor: "What are you doing?!" Let go of my little flower! ”

Hearing this name, and looking at this big dog with a strong body, Qi Mingle was silent for a moment.

"How are you, Xiaohua?" Zhang Yunyao ran over with her skirt and was about to check on the dog, but Qi Mingle dodged in front of the dog, "This is your dog?" ”

"It's not my dog, it's yours! Get out of the way! Zhang Yunyao glared at Qi Mingle angrily and angrily.

From the day of the tea ceremony, Qi Mingle noticed that this sister-in-law didn't seem to like her. After today's trouble, Qi Mingle is even more certain.

Qi Mingle didn't let it, she stood steadily: "Since it's yours, then I'll go back and compensate you again." ”

"I don't want it! I just need little flowers! It was you who killed my little flower!! ”

Qi Mingle reminded: "It was it that bit me first." ”

"Little flower it doesn't bite! Woo woo woo, you pay my little flower! You pay my little flower! ”

Seeing that Zhang Yunyao's emotions became excited, Qi Mingle moved away, Zhang Yunyao ran over, hugged the dog in his arms, and cried, "Xiaohua, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have let you scare her, I hurt you, I'm sorry." ”

The little girl, who was still menacing just now, instantly cried into a tearful person. Qi Mingle watched from the sidelines, feeling both helpless and funny.

When Zhang Yunyao was almost crying, Qi Mingle snapped his fingers lazily and shouted: "Get up!" ”

The dog, who was originally whining, suddenly stood up from Zhang Yunyao's arms, shook its black and shiny fur, and then wagged his tail to Qi Mingle flatteringly.

Zhang Yunyao was defenseless, and was directly led to fall backwards, her back hit the trunk of the tree, and the snow on it fell all at once, instantly pouring her into a snowman.

This was originally prepared by Zhang Yunyao for Qi Mingle, but now it is 'enjoyed' by herself.

"Little girl, don't have bad intentions in life, otherwise you will be backfired." After Qi Mingle taught Zhang Yunyao a lesson with practical actions, he left with a smile, and Zhang Yunyao instantly cried louder.

Qi Mingle went back to change his dress, and when he was about to go to Su Qinlan, Zhang Yuanxiu also came back.

Seeing that Zhang Yuanxiu was still wearing the robe in the morning, Qi Mingle was stunned and couldn't help asking, "You just came back?" ”

"Well, I went to the government office."

Qi Mingle nodded, and asked Zhang Yuanxiu again: "I'm going to my mother's place, do you want to be together?" ”

"Let's do it together." Zhang Yuanxiu, who was originally going to go inside, turned back again.

As soon as the two of them entered Su Qinlan's courtyard, they heard Zhang Yunyao's cry from inside: "Woo woo, mother, she bullied me, she bullied you as soon as she passed the door, you have to make the decision for me!" ”

Zhang Yuanxiu paused and looked sideways at Qi Mingle.
