Rebirth of a Star General

Chapter 268

In April, the weather is getting warmer and warmer.

By the riverside, the children are putting the paper kites. The line is pulled far away, and each other compares whose paper kite is put higher. Laughter spread to the long beach, causing pedestrians to stop to watch.

Near the gate of the city, several carriages stopped, as if someone wanted to leave Beijing, relatives and relatives came to see them off. In front of the carriage, a young man in a robe was babbling on and on, listening carefully: "the journey is far away. You must pay attention to your safety here. You hate bumps most. When you hold her, remember to wrap up a blanket..."

"He Yunsheng," the woman opposite him couldn't help interrupting him. "If you go on like this, we can't start until it's dark."

"That's right," the woman standing on the side of heyunsheng's body glared at him angrily and looked at Heyan. "Elder sister, don't worry about going to Jiyang. Yunsheng and I will take good care of our family."

He Yan nodded and let Xiao Yao, who was being held by Xiao Jue, waved to he Yunsheng and Song Tao Tao in the carriage. Xiao Yao cried out with milk: "uncle, aunt, goodbye."

"Be good on the way," he Yunsheng came close to Xiao Yao, pinched a small face with her milk and a little smile on his face. "Come back, my uncle will buy you sugar."

Xiao Yao bit his finger and laughed at him.

"All right, you go back." "Let's go," Xiao Jue said

The curtain of the carriage was lowered and it ran out of the city.

Time passed quickly, seven years had passed since the first war with the uto people.

Seven years, enough to make a teenager grow up into a man of indomitable spirit. He Yunsheng is no longer the green and astringent boy who went with Heyan to sell Da Nai cake in the street. In recent years, he has outstanding martial arts skills and is willing to work hard. He has got the green eye of emperor Zhaokang by chance. Step by step, he has become the deputy commander of the Fifth Battalion.

When he was promoted to a higher position, others looked at him and felt that he was arrogant and alienated. However, only he Yan knew that he Yunsheng was still as carefree as before. Such a disposition is hard for Song Tao Tao to look up to.

Song Tao Tao became close to Heyun four years ago.

Her marriage with he Yunsheng is really beyond his expectation. After all, it was Cheng Lishu who was engaged with Song Tao Tao. However, Song Tao Tao and Cheng Lishu had no love for each other. After a few years, they were still the same. Later, the Song family and the Cheng family dissolved the engagement. It didn't matter at all. As soon as the engagement was terminated, Song Tao Tao Ran to the door of he's family and bravely expressed his love for he Yunsheng, which startled everyone.

Master song is also a scholar. He almost lost his temper when he heard this news. Mrs. song thinks that Song Tao Tao's action is too out of line. The only person who supports Song Tao Tao is her ex fiance Cheng Lishu.

Cheng Lishu secretly ran to the door of the Song family and encouraged her to say, "yes, Miss Song, you have done something that I admire. Don't worry about what others say. My brother he is one of the best young talents in shuojing city. After this village, there will be no store. You must not give up because of others' words. Don't worry, I, your ex fiance, "he patted his chest and said in a righteous way:" I will help you to achieve what you want! "

He encouraged Song Tao Tao at one end, and went to he Yunsheng at the other end. He Yan once saw Cheng Lishu deceive he Yunsheng: "uncle he, my former fiancee, though charming, willful, pretentious, fierce as a tiger, is nothing. But in fact, she is not bad at all, and her family is rich and noble. What's more important is to love you deeply. Otherwise, you should try to follow her everywhere? Maybe it's just a matter of feeling when you're there? "

He Yunsheng looked at him coldly: "why don't you get along with yourself?"

"Hi," he Yunsheng replied sincerely, "a gentleman has the beauty of becoming a man."

He Yan, who overheard the whole conversation, thought at that time that Cheng Lishu was really a stick for fear that the world would be in chaos.

He Yunsheng didn't like Song Tao at first. He Yan thinks he knows his brother very well. According to his own words, the girl he likes should be a gentle and lovely girl like Xia Chengxiu or Bai Rongwei. But at first, Song Tao Tao was very close to him. His heart was like iron and he was not moved. Later, Song Tao Tao didn't come to he's house. He Yunsheng held back for a long time. One day, he found Heyan and was coy for a while. Then he said that he wanted her to help him to the Song family.

He Yan was speechless.

From Xiao Jue's niece and daughter-in-law to his sister-in-law, Song Tao Tao's identity has become a bit big. He Yan is not in the accident how to say, just feeling in the heart, fate, this is really no reason. Who knows, at the beginning, Song Tao Tao was originally her "fiancee"?

I can't say anything about young people. Let them go about it. It's just fat water that doesn't flow into the field.

As well, men are mostly the masters of duplicity.

As for Cheng Lishu, who was "a beautiful man", he is still a man. Because of the previous affairs of Song Tao Tao, his family did not dare to make a blind date for him. But Cheng Lishu himself did not take this matter to heart. He is busy making friends and visiting the door every day, inviting cats and dogs. He is still the "useless childe" in the past. At the beginning, the Cheng family hoped that he would make progress, but later he just didn't care.In this world, big heart itself is actually a kind of happiness.

The carriage bumps, Xiao Yao hides in Xiao Jue's arms, stares at the scenery outside the carriage, does not cry, does not make noise, is full of curiosity. He Yan snapped a finger, she "suddenly" turned her head, a blink does not blink staring at him, eyes wet, Heyan "puff" laugh.

Xiao Jue:

He laughed angrily: "you are such a mother."

"It's a long way to go," He Yan disapproved. "It's boring not to have fun for yourself."

Xiao Yao will soon be three years old. When he was born, Lin Shuanghe called his father and grandfather all over and waited at the door of Xiao's house to avoid accidents. Fortunately, Xiao Yao was born very smoothly. He Yan didn't suffer too much, and the little guy was also very good-natured. She was neither like he Yan jumping off, nor as quiet as Xiao Jue. He Yan thought that she was stupid and like a little fool. If you give a grasshopper, you can enjoy yourself all day, which is very good.

Also because of this, this time to Jiyang, she decided to take Xiao Yao with her.

Xiao Jue went to Jiyang with Xiao Jue to attend the wedding banquet of Mu Xiaolou.

At the beginning of his trip to Jiyang, Heyan intended to let Qingmei and chiwu go together. However, he found out that Qingmei was pregnant and not suitable for a long journey. Heyan asked Qingmei to take a good rest in the house, and chiwu accompanied her.

He Yan picked a few peaches, and Lin Shuanghe paid for them. She cleaned the peaches with the water in the bucket beside the peddler and returned to her carriage.

"Here," she handed the peach to Xiao Jue, "have a taste."

Xiao Jue took the peach, peeled it off with a knife, peeled it a little, and fed it to Xiao Yao. Xiao Yao ate a little bit of it. Then Xiao Yao was happy and said with a voice of milk: "also -"

Heyan: "

She sometimes felt that she and Xiao Jue's position as parents seemed to be doing the opposite. She taught Xiao Yao to walk and even to hold some small stones. She planned to teach her martial arts when she was a little older. Xiao Jue, on the other hand, covers all the details, such as What Xiao Yao eats, wears and plays

In the matter of taking care of children, he showed patience, and Xia Chengxiu some of the fight.

Xia Chengxiu

Mu Xia is now seven years old. He is very similar to Yanhe. He is tall among his peers. Although his father had passed away when he was born, fortunately, all the Yan Family and Yan He's friends gave him enough care, which made him not feel inferior and sad. He was very lively and competitive. Master Gong Ma said that his equestrian skills still needed improvement. He practiced equestrian for three months until he got it in the verification. Although he was slow, he was getting better and better.

He Xinying also helps in Yongxu hall. After Wei Xuanzhang's death, he Xinying accompanies Mrs. Wei day and day, and establishes a deep relationship with Mrs. Wei. Mrs. Wei takes her as a dry daughter. As a teacher of piano art in Yongxu hall, she is more and more open-minded when she is with young girls every day. She is no longer as persistent about the past as before.

He Yan also often went to see him. It was said that a young gentleman in Yongxu hall, who taught abacus calculation, admired he Xinying very much in private. He Yan has been asked to check the details of Mr. Na. He Yan is a man of light wind and full moon. He just asked her how she thought.

There is a long way to go, but it is not in a hurry.

Xiao Yao was full of peaches and fell asleep on Xiao Jue. He Yan asked in a low voice: "tired? Shall I hold it for a while

Xiao Jue shakes his head: "not tired."

He Yan looked at Xiao Yao hanging on him, and sighed in his heart that he was born of her. He could eat and sleep, and was especially good at raising.

She lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked out. Along the way, at the end of the river, the bank was green, the sun was warm and the wind was warm. Then she felt a lazy drowsiness.

She leaned against Xiao Jue's shoulder and fell asleep unconsciously, just like a little girl in Xiao Jue's arms.

……

Seven years later, Jiyang City, compared with seven years ago, looks no change.

At the gate of the city, one of Cui Yue who got the news arrived early in the morning.

When he Yan and his party got off the carriage, the first thing they saw was Cui Yuezhi and his four concubines. Cui Yuezhi is still the same, round and chubby, simple and honest, but he is older. In the arms of the eldest aunt and the fourth aunt, one holds a child. This is Cui Yuezhi's son and daughter, Cui Yan and Cui Yingying, respectively from the eldest aunt and the fourth aunt. The second aunt is still as charming as before. The third aunt will cough twice when she takes two steps, and the change is not too big.

He Yan came up to them and pinched Cui Yingying's face. His face was soft. He was on the same level as Xiao Yao. He said with a smile, "Lord Cui, this is..."

"Yan'er and Yingying," Cui Yuezhi said triumphantly, "how, we all say that they are born more and more like the governor Xiao, I look at it is a bit like."

He Yan said:

Although she admitted that Cui Yan and Cui Yingying were not so beautiful as Cui Yuezhi, they didn't have much to do with Xiao Jue!

Cui Yue saw Xiao Yao in Xiao Jue's arms with one eye, and his eyes brightened. "Oh, this is Yaoyao. He looks so cute. He and our Yan'er are really golden children and jade girls, or..."Xiao Jue blocked him and was about to reach for his hand. He swept him coldly and said, "Cui Yuezhi."

The second aunt quickly took Cui Yuezhi and said with a smile, "master, you really like to laugh. Miss Xiao is still young

Xiao Yao doesn't know why. So he looks at Cui Yuezhi and Xiao Jue. Finally, he reaches out to Heyan to hug him: "Niang --"

Heyan holds her over. Lin Shuanghe stands out and gives a light cough: "this is not the place to speak. Mr. Cui, you'd better go to your house and speak again."

Cui Yuezhi's residence is big. He is still living in Cui's mansion as he did last time. However, when he came back last time, he Yan and Xiao Jue still had a pure relationship between the superior and the subordinate. Now they have already been husband and wife when they revisit the hometown, and they also bring a little oil bottle. It's really unpredictable.

He Yan walks behind with Xiao Yao in his arms. He looks at Cui Yuezhi curiously and asks in a low voice: "since the eldest aunt and the fourth aunt have already given birth to Cui, why are they still his concubines? In this way, don't young master Cui and Miss Cui become common sons and daughters? "

She had thought that Cui Yuezhi, who had only four concubines, might eventually marry a wife. But for so many years, he did not take a wife, and even his concubines gave birth to children, which he Yan did not understand.

"Lord Xiaohe doesn't know," Cui Yuezhi said with a smile, "the customs of Jiyang and central plains are different. Jiyang women, once married, rarely remarry. If the husband's family is in trouble and unfortunately widowed, they have to stay for a lifetime. I did not know when I would be killed in my early years. To get a wife is to delay others. The concubine's room is different. Even if I die, they can find their own place. "

"Who knows my life is good. I've lived well these years. But also used to them four, this if help which do a wife, the courtyard can also have a quiet life? That's good, "Cui Yuezhi sighed," treat everyone equally, everyone is my favorite! They are all commoners, so there is no difference between the superior and the inferior! "

He Yan has nothing to say. He can only say that Cui Yuezhi is a man who has walked the lover bridge four times. Although he has a strange perspective, he has a certain truth.

After arriving at Cui's house, a middle-aged housekeeper came to greet him. Lin Shuanghe asked, "where is Zhong Fu?" He remembered that when he came to Cui's house last time, the housekeeper was an old servant with gray hair.

"Zhong Fu passed away a year ago," Cui Yuezhi said. "He is old. He walked in a dream. This is Zhong Fu's son, Zhong GUI."

He Yan was in a trance. It seemed that until then, he really felt that seven years had passed. Even though Jiyang was similar to the past, it was not seven years ago.

Cui Yue had the yard cleaned before they came. He Yan settled things down. Xiao Yao was already asleep. He Yan put her on the bed, covered her with quilts, and looked around the room. Suddenly, she remembered that she had seen the spring pictures Cui Yuezhi had carefully arranged for them in front of the bed.

Xiao Jue glanced at her and saw Heyan standing beside the bed with a thoughtful smile. She raised her eyebrows and said, "miss heta, you are sorry that Cui Yuezhi has not put pictures here this time?"

He Yan returned to his mind and shook his head: "this can't, after all, there's still a long way to go. Lord Cui still knows how to behave."

There was a trace of regret in her face. Xiao Jue was angry and funny.

Although Xiao Yao is nearly three years old, he Yan's skin is getting thicker and thicker. Maybe he trains recruits in the martial arts arena and stays with the young people all day long. He is more and more forthright and has no scruples.

When she saw Xiao Yao sleeping soundly, she said in a low voice: "I'm a little hungry. Let's have some food first."

Xiao Jue nodded.

Cuifu's food is still as exquisite as ever. When eating, Heyan talked about Wang Fulai of Mu Xiaolou.

Cui Yue said: "I have seen the eldest son of the Qin family. He is handsome and has good skills. Previously, his highness slipped out to play. When he met a bad man, he saved her. My highness has a good eye. In Jiyang City, there are not many beautiful men like Mr. Qin! "

When Cui Yuezhi looked at people, he mostly looked at their faces first.

However, he Yan also knew that the eldest son of Qin had no problem. She asked the Silver Pheasant to check it out. Luan Ying was injured when he was on a mission a few years ago. It was not good to work around. It happened that the Silver Pheasant grew up and took over the work of Luan Ying. He has a lively disposition and has accomplished his task excellently. He also liked Heyan very much, especially his embroidery. He asked him to have one every other time. For a time, Xiao Jue was not happy because he asked too much. He found an opportunity to send him to work in a distant place.

Although he Yan doesn't like doing needlework very much, it's not easy to meet someone who appreciates himself in the world. In particular, every time the Silver Pheasant praised her from the bottom of her heart that she was "exquisite", and that every time the Silver Pheasant asked, Heyan would try to meet it.

The Silver Pheasant inquired back that this young master Qin was a gentleman and a good man who could entrust him for life.

Although in Xiao Jue's opinion, he Yan is worried about it blindly. After all, Mu Xiaolou wants to get married. Mu Hongjin will definitely find out the details of the eldest son of Qin a long time ago. However, he Yan always thinks that Mu Xiaolou is the grandson of Liu buxiaolou's lover. She should do her best in emotion and reason."You'll see what he looks like at the wedding party tomorrow." Cui Yuezhi said as like as two peas, and said, "Your Highness is growing up now, and it is exactly the same as your royal highness. We old men are old, and from now on, we will be the world of young people. "

Two aunt Jiao didi way: "the master can not call old, call to be prudent."

He Yan: "I'm sorry."

That's a good one.

After dinner, Xiao Yao also woke up after talking for a while. The aunt ordered the kitchen to make a meal suitable for children. Heyan and Xiao Jue fed Xiao Yao food. When Xiao Yao was full, they would play with her.

When it was dark, the fourth aunt knocked at the door. He Yan went out and heard the fourth aunt say, "Miss He, I'm going to buy some red silk tied in the wedding ceremony tomorrow. Would you like to pick some together? The red silk of Jiyang is different from that of Central Plains... "

He Yan turns to ask Xiao Jue: "do you want to go together?"

"There are too many people. It's inconvenient to be far away." Pause, Xiao Jue way: "you go, I coax her to sleep to come to you again."

Xiao Yao must be coaxed before he goes to bed. At first, he Yan coaxes him. Then one day Xiao Jue hears her telling Xiao Yao about his bedtime conversation. One day, Xiao Jue cuts off the robber's head with a knife, and his head grunts and rolls up in front of the female Xia Xiao Yao blinked at her with interest.

Later, Xiao Jue won't let Heyan coax Xiao Yao to sleep.

He Yan said to the fourth aunt: "OK, let's go first."

"Good," she said with a smile

……

The water market of Jiyang city is still lively.

The water god's day has passed, but vendors of all sizes have not left. In the past two years, the traffic orders in Jiyang city have been released a little more than before. Many businessmen came to Jiyang to do business, and the water market became more and more prosperous. Goods from the western regions to the south of the Yangtze River can be seen.

The fourth aunt was the youngest, about the same age as Heyan. As she walked along, she explained to him: "now the city is not the same as before. Does Xiaohe feel that it is much more lively than before?"

He Yan sighed: "it's true."

On the river, boats, large and small, are brightly lit up on both sides of the river as bright as day. Peddlers shout for goods. He Yan walks and stops. Occasionally he sees something new, so he buys it and plans to return it to Xiao Yao for fun.

She is no longer that poor little soldier any more. She has a salary at any rate. Her military achievements in the first World War were filled with rewards. In recent years, although the purse is not full, it is not as flat as before, like a pancake.

The two of them walked among them. From time to time, Jiyang youth passed by, and their eyes couldn't help but glance at Heyan.

He Yan noticed their eyes and asked his aunt, "is there anything on my face?"

The fourth aunt chuckled and explained, "no, Mr. Xiaohe. They look at Xiaohe's life and admire him."

He Yan lowered his lips with his hands and coughed twice I'm flattered. "

The fourth aunt laughed but did not speak. The men of Jiyang did not understand the difference between the hair styles of women and girls in Central Plains. They only saw that the young girl's eyebrows were vivid and beautiful, like a gust of wind ironing, and naturally they had a heart of admiration. After all, everyone has a love for beauty, but she doesn't know how long she has been. After seven years, the time left on her is not a sign of aging. Looking at her face, it is not very different from that of that year, but there are differences. It is about the heroism between her eyebrows that there is a faint trace of gentleness.

This gentle and her hearty excellent combination together, walking in the crowd, like a shining pearl, it is difficult to ignore.

He Yan saw that there were people gathered together in front of him. After two steps, he saw the peddler sitting in front of an iron pot, skillfully scooping up brown sugar in the pot and sketching on the white stone slab. He immediately said happily, "it's sugar man!"

"Is there no sugar man in shuojing city?" The fourth aunt wondered why she was so excited.

"Yes, there are, but not as good as the masters in Jiyang City, and there are not so many kinds of them." He Yan said with a smile: "since I'm here, I just want to buy one. I'll take it back to Yaoyao later."

She said to the fourth aunt: "there are too many people. You'll wait for me here. I'll come back after I buy it."

Four Auntie also want to say what, see he Yan has already pushed aside the crowd, to the end of the sugar vendor.

He Yan squeezed to the front, took out a string of copper plates, and said: "little brother, I want a big tiger, please do some prestige."

"OK --"

the peddler is very skillful, but in a moment, a powerful tiger sticks to the bamboo stick. Heyan hands over the money and takes over the sugar man. He is very satisfied.

Previously, Qingmei made a cloth tiger for Xiao Yao. Xiao Yao liked it very much. She also held it when eating and sleeping. Later, she accidentally left the cloth tiger in the brazier and burned it. Xiao Yao cried for most of the day. Green plum new is not ready, Heyan and they have to start to Jiyang.

Xiao Yao likes tigers so much that he should be happy to see the tiger made of sugar.He Yan, with a sugar tiger in his hand, squeezed out of the crowd and was about to leave. Suddenly, he heard someone calling his name behind him, as if with a bit of hesitation and uncertainty, and said: "I'm sorry Ah Ho

He Yan grabs his head and sees the man in green standing not far from her. His expression is surprised and complicated.

"Chu Fourth young master
