Chapter 1251: Unspeakable Request
Once the emotion of returning to his hometown was aroused, he could no longer be suppressed, and after Mao Wenlong decided to go back to Daming first, he began to prepare hard.
The matter of the expedition to Luzon was also handed over to Chen Jisheng and Chen Qiyu, which made the two guys happy. With Mao Wenlong here, they are naturally not too presumptuous, and now that Mao Wenlong wants to return to Daming, Chen Jisheng and Chen Qiyue no longer have any constraints. When the time comes, Luzon is not just how the two of them can play.
It doesn't need to be cumbersome to return to Daming, and Mao Wenlong doesn't have any packing to pack, everything is arranged for him by others. At this moment, the only thing that Mao Wenlong couldn't let go of was the affairs of the Wa Kingdom, leaving the elderly Hong Chengchou alone, and he really couldn't help it.
"Sir, why don't you go back to Daming with us!" Mao Wenlong couldn't help but open his mouth.
Hong Chengchou smiled and said: "The general soldier doesn't have to worry about it, although the old minister is a little older, but this old bone is still tough, and within ten years, the old minister is still sure to hold on." ”
Hong Chengchou was quite cheerful and confident, and rejected Mao Wenlong's kindness with one mouth.
Before Mao Wenlong could speak, Hong Ziyan beside him spoke first: "Daddy, you just listen to the father-in-law, go back to the Ming Dynasty with us!" ”
The daughter is always worried about her father, and when she first heard Mao Wenlong persuade her father to return to Daming, Hong Ziyan didn't mention how happy she was. But later, when she heard that her father directly rejected Mao Wenlong's kindness, Hong Ziyan was anxious now.
Hong Chengchou is very useful from his daughter's concern, but since he has come from Daming thousands of miles away, he will definitely not take this trip in vain. In the Ming Dynasty, although he Hong Chengchou was the first prime minister of the dynasty, the existence of ten thousand people under one person, but he had a rare opportunity to come out and walk in his life, and now he finally had the opportunity to leave the Ming Dynasty and come to the country of Wa, which is thousands of miles away, no matter what, he has to stay for a while to see this exotic style.
Hong Chengchou shook his head again and said, "Silly girl, my father is this age, and I don't know how many years I have lived longer than others." Even if you die now, there is nothing to regret, you can go back with peace of mind, and you don't have to worry about Daddy here. ”
Hong Ziyan was so anxious, but she didn't know how to persuade her father, so she had to look at Mao Wenlong for help. The latter gave a relieved look, and then said with a smile: "Sir, isn't it really back to Daming?" ”
Hong Chengchou nodded and smiled: "Yes, if you don't go back, Lao Chen will only have such a chance to come out for a walk in his life, if he goes back now, I'm afraid there will be no chance to come out again in the future." ”
Mao Wenlong pondered for a moment, then said with a smile: "Since Mr. has such a dream, then I won't say more." ”
"Xianggong ......" Hong Ziyan began to be anxious again.
"Lady, there is no need to say more." Mao Wenlong directly interrupted Hong Ziyan.
He had already seen through Hong Chengchou's thoughts, and the old guy had been listening to himself talk about the outside world before in Daming. Now that I have finally come out, I must see this world of flowers for myself, and I will definitely not go back easily. After all, Hong Chengchou is now very old, if he doesn't walk around while he is still able to walk, he will not have a chance in the future.
Hong Chengchou gave Mao Wenlong a grateful look and thanked him for persuading his daughter.
Mao Wenlong smiled back with an understanding smile, and then changed the topic: "Lady, I don't know how the clothes in the house are packed, or you can go back and take stock now." And remember to pack the things you like, but don't leave them behind. ”
Hong Ziyan originally wanted to continue to persuade her father to come, but when Mao Wenlong said this, she immediately thought of the treasures that were found in the palace of the Wa Kingdom. Women are always unable to resist the temptation of those jewels, and Hong Ziyan is obviously no exception, she hesitated for a moment, then nodded in agreement.
After Hong Ziyan left, Mao Wenlong smiled and said, "Sir, you are satisfied now!" ”
Hong Chengchou smiled into a bun on his face and said: "Satisfied, satisfied, it's just that the old minister really doesn't know if he will die of old age in this foreign country in the future." At that time, I hope that the general soldier can bring the ashes of the old minister back to Daming for burial, which is also the only thought of the old minister. And Zi Yan will have General Labor to take care of her in the future. ”
In the final analysis, Hong Chengchou still felt a little relieved that he was his only daughter, but after the Hong family had this daughter, he gave birth to another daughter. There is not even a man who can continue the incense, the Hong family does not have the continuation of the incense, filial piety is the first, and no one is greater, this responsibility has always been the pain in Hong Chengchou's heart.
Now that Mao Wenlong is about to return to the Ming Dynasty, if this pain is not said again, I don't know if there will be a chance to say it in the future? Hong Chengchou hesitated for a long time, he finally made up his mind, looked at Mao Wenlong with firm eyes, and said seriously: "Chief soldier, the old minister has a reluctant request, and I hope that the general soldier can be fulfilled." ”
Mao Wenlong saw that Hong Chengchou was serious, he also became serious, nodded and said, "Sir, please say something, as long as I can do my best, I will do my best." ”
Hong Chengchou was a little relieved, and hesitated and said: "There were originally two unfilial sons in the old minister's family, but they were all killed on the battlefield before. The Hong family has already cut off the incense, and the old minister is afraid that after he goes down to Jiuquan, he will have no shame to face the ancestors and ancestors. Therefore, Lao Chen implored the general soldier to let Zi Yan conceive a child again, at least give birth to a boy, and pass it on to the Lao Hong family, so that the old Hong family can continue the incense. ”
Mao Wenlong was stunned for a long time when he heard this, and then he relieved himself and said, "Sir's request is a little difficult, but I am willing to do my best." We must also speak first, this matter can only be left to fate, if in the end Zi Yan can't conceive a child or a boy, I can't do anything. ”
The matter of having a child is not something that Mao Wenlong can control, if it is in the future life, he can also rely on scientific and technological means to achieve such a wish. But in this era, giving birth to a child is completely a matter of resignation to the destiny of heaven, so Mao Wenlong did not dare to pack a ticket to Hong Chengchou, but said ugly things in front.
Hong Chengchou was very open-minded, he said with a smile: "As long as the general soldier can do his best, no one can guarantee this matter, the old minister knows." ”
Hearing Hong Chengchou say this, Mao Wenlong also relaxed, he was really afraid that Hong Chengchou would let Hong Ziyan be tortured or maybe give his life in order to have a child for the sake of the Hong family's continued incense. If this is the case, Mao Wenlong will not agree to Hong Chengchou's request.
After the matter was negotiated, Mao Wenlong and Hong Chengchou also relaxed, and the two walked back to the mansion slowly.
