Chapter 18: Passing the Sword Again
Hou Lingshan was still there muttering that he didn't have much money, Meng Yu smiled, and asked the store to take another jar of good wine: "Hou Ye take it back and drink it." Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Hou Lingshan said: "This is about the same. Picked up the wine jar and walked out, and suddenly turned around: "Hey, Meng Gongzi, these two candidate brothers-in-law, which one do you like more?"
Meng Yu didn't understand at first, but when he saw that Ying Shaoyan's neck was already red, he understood what was going on. When you fly out, you have to kick Lingshan. Hou Lingshan grinned and said, "Xie Menggongzi's wine." After speaking, the light skill was gone, and the whole jar of wine in his arms seemed to have no weight.
Meng Yu couldn't help laughing, and suddenly asked Ying Shaoyan: "Does my brother-in-law need me?"
Ying Shaoyan thought for a while and said, "Probably because you usually manage too much......"
Meng Yu thoughtfully: "I also think I'm quite a mother-in-law." However, this is about Xiaoxue's happiness, and I still have to be firm and continue to manage it as always. ”
Ying Shaoyan couldn't help laughing.
The next day, the weather suddenly turned cold, Meng Yu carried a sword, still wearing a plain robe, and walked out of the house.
He was short on time and had a short time to spend with his parents.
He gave Meng Xue the flower seeds sent by Guo Shichao, Meng Xue shouted happily, and asked my brother When did you know so much about flowers?
Meng Yu touched Meng Xue's hair, he was actually a very pessimistic young man, and he always had a premonition that his sister's future would not be good.
But he is also a man, he has his own things to do, and it is impossible to be by Meng Xue's side every day.
When he came out with his sword, Ying Shaoyan was already waiting for him.
They rode to the river where Meng Xue was in distress that day.
The weather is getting colder, the wind is blowing, and the big river is splashing, and there is a bit of a turbidity wave.
The two men walked along the river from west to east, for some reason. Today is a little reluctant to break up.
Meng Yu knew that on the other side of the river, he should never be able to go. He understood his cousin's feelings, and he also knew that his father was trying to exonerate Ying Shaoyan in the court. However, the difficulty in this can be imagined.
Meng Yu looked at the raging river, jumped off the horse, and tied the horse to the tree.
Ying Shaoyan thought that he was going to say goodbye to him, so he also dismounted and tied the horse.
Meng Yu looked at Ying Shaoyan: "Do you know why I went out so early?"
Ying Shaoyan said: "How can I keep up with the detective's thinking." ”
Meng Yu smiled slightly: "When I came back from the capital, I met an old man from my uncle, and she passed on a few tricks to my uncle who taught her swordsmanship, and told me to teach you." ”
Ying Shaoyan was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help opening his mouth wide. His father was a sacred shadow in his mind, and he wanted to be close to that shadow, and how much he wanted that shadow to become a real flesh and blood person.
However, he knew very little about his father. In the last few days before the Empress Dowager colluded with Beiyan to murder King Cheng and decided to assassinate the Empress Dowager, his father Ying Zhengyun recounted many things every day. has his own upbringing, his own beliefs, his sustenance for his future children, and his words to his wife. Ying Zhengyun knew that he didn't love the wife that his mother had added to him, and he spent too little time with his wife. But he knew how sorry he was for this woman who was doomed to be widowed when he got married in a hurry during the war. He didn't know whether the unborn child was male or female, and what the future would be. So in the last few short days, he wrote as much as he could. When Ying Shaoyan grew up, when his mother showed him his father's last words, he cried so much that he couldn't stop crying. However, his father is an irretrievable shadow after all, and it will surely cause him a lifetime of pain.
Ying Shaoyan looked at Meng Yu, and his eyes couldn't help but turn red.
Meng Yu didn't speak, but quickly drew his sword in his hand, and tried a few sword moves on the wide river beach by the river.
In fact, in the few days after returning to Xiyuzhou, Meng Yu practiced carefully every day. He was always afraid that when he passed it on to Ying Shaoyan, the moves had not yet been practiced.
At this time, he walked all over again, but he didn't hear a sound. Looking at Ying Shaoyan again, he stood aside, tears already hazy in his eyes.
Meng Yu walked towards him: "Cousin, don't be sad. It's usually difficult for us to get together for a long time, so don't waste time today, let these sword moves stay in your heart. ”
Ying Shaoyan nodded, and also drew the sword that his father left for him.
For a while, by the rushing river, two young swordsmen, like snowflakes whirling in sword style, became a beautiful and unforgettable picture.
Meng Yu walked alone along the riverside from west to east.
Ying Shaoyan silently watched his figure on the horse get smaller and smaller until it disappeared.
The cool wind blew the belt and corners of his robe, adding a kind of parting sorrow and sadness.
It wasn't until Meng Yu's figure disappeared that he jumped on the horse and turned his horse's head towards Xiyuzhou, where he grew up.
The river around him has been flowing rapidly, splashing waves from time to time, and Meng Yu's thoughts are still revolving around this strange case.
Suddenly, a voice that was scraping with a shovel on the bottom of the iron pot came with a rattling smile: "Meng Gongzi! How can you cross the river without a boat? Look at me to help you!"
Meng Yu was startled, and turned his head to see that Hou Lingshan was rocking a small boat and following him.
Meng Yu burst out laughing: "I can't afford to use Hou Ye's boat, I don't have a few big ingots of silver on my body, and I'm still waiting for temporary emergency use." ”
Hou Lingshan threw down the oar in his left hand, made his hand into a trumpet shape and shouted: "Meng Gongzi, I thank you for inviting me to drink to help you! You can't cross the river without a boat!"
Meng Yu jumped off the horse, and one twisted his waist and flew onto the boat.
The boat shook a few times, and Hou Lingshan swayed back and forth.
Meng Yu grabbed his arm: "Look at your rowing twice, you dare to be a captain." ”
Hou Lingshan was grabbed by Meng Yu, and his body stood firmly: "Hey, I don't have a good reward for my kindness, and you don't appreciate it if I came to take you for free?"
Meng Yu said with a smile: "Look at your boat, I'm going to capsize when I come up, and I'll pay it back immediately." ”
He gave him a gentle push, and Hou Lingshan sat on the board.
Meng Yu continued: "Master Hou, you are fighting for the big monkey to take a look. ”
Hou Lingshan looked in the direction pointed by Meng Yu, and where the river in front of him was a little narrower, there was a stone bridge!
Meng Yu patted Hou Lingshan's head: "Xiyuzhou is my home, can you still know the road, Master Hou, did you drink too much wine last night." ”
Hou Lingshan also burst out laughing.
Meng Yu had already flown again, returned to the shore, jumped on the horse, clamped the horse's belly between his legs, and the horse went straight to the stone bridge.
Suddenly, the sound of the golden ring behind him moved, and Meng Yu pretended not to know and did not look back.
Hou Lingshan had already taken off from the boat and landed lightly on Meng Yu's horse, he stretched out his hand to hug Meng Yu tightly, and grinned: "Then borrow Meng Gongzi's horse and ......use it, and pay the river crossing fee."
Meng Yu was angry and funny: "What do you want to do?"
Hou Lingxing said: "Meng Gongzi is not as familiar with many insider stories as I am. Besides, don't you want to know about Eagle Eagle Peak?"
Meng Yu said: "What are you holding back? When did you like to be exempt?"
Hou Lingshan still grinned: "Let's be reciprocal." ”
Meng Yu said: "I know that it's no good, your kid won't raise his buttocks, and he can't sleep with his little Jiao Niang at this time!"
After saying that, Meng Yu suddenly added a whip, and the horse galloped up like an arrow, running onto the stone bridge.
The stone bridge is very narrow, and through the cracks in the stone slabs, you can see the rushing river flowing rapidly under the bridge.
Hou Lingshan was so frightened that she hugged Meng Yu's waist tightly.
Meng Yu said: "Loose brother, I'm not a little girl, you make me numb." ”
Hou Lingshan was still screaming exaggeratedly, and his arms refused to let go a little.
Meng Yu was amused in his heart, and he didn't pay attention to him anymore, just beat his horse and galloped.
