Chapter 634: Parting, Reunion
When it came into contact with the master's faint glance, it drooped its ears again, jumped on the master's bed, and found a place to continue sleeping at the end of the bed - as a noble mutant leopard, he was held by the hostess as a cat all day long, and was kicked by the male master, and he couldn't live this day!
Gu Ye reached out and took the wilting little black meow over and hugged it in his arms, stroking its smooth head and back, and pinching its slender tail. remembered that before last winter, she rode Xiaomo back and forth between the battlefield of Yanguo and Qingshan Village. It was supposed to take several days to reach the mountain road, but it took less than half a day to arrive. If you use it as a mount, you can save a lot of time.
The big black eyes aimed at Ling Juechen's body, looking up and down at his figure, slender and lean, especially the thin waist, her arms were wrapped up, and the size was just right......
Ahem, where did you go!! Gu Ye patted her head, she was obviously worried about Xiaomo's figure, which was crushed by Brother Chen. After all, Brother Chen's height is about 1.85 meters, how can he weigh twice as much?
As if seeing her concern, Ling Jiechen gently stroked Gu Ye's black and silky hair, and said softly: "Don't worry, it's no problem to kill the sky and carry two adult men." ”
Ji Tian raised his eyelids: Master, don't bring such an abuse of leopards!
Gu Ye: "......" Why does "Brother Chen" think that when Brother Chen touches her, his gesture is very similar to her touching the little black cat? People pet cats, he strokes her? Something doesn't feel right......
A few more days passed, and the day before the new year, Ling Juechen left a letter for Gu Ye and left quietly, caught off guard, and expected. Gu Ye looked at the farewell letter and dropped a few golden beans-Brother Bad Dust, but he didn't give her a chance to see her off.
However, she knew very well in her heart that Brother Chen was afraid that she would not be able to bear the pain of parting, and he did not want her to be sad. However, when he was not by her side, how could she not be sad?
As a woman herself, Jun's knew her daughter's inner turmoil at this time, so she came over early in the morning to stay by her daughter's side and find some topics to distract her: "Bao'er, pack up quickly, let's go back to Beijing." ”
"Oh!" Gu Ye replied like a stray cat abandoned by his owner. It's been almost a month since they came to this Zhuangzi, and if it weren't for the hot spring Zhuangzi matter to recuperate, they would have gone back a long time ago.
There are still seven or eight days before the New Year's Festival, and Jun, as the mother of the Duke of Zhenguo, is indeed going back to the affairs of the abbot's mansion. Yancheng Jun's New Year's gift, she still found time in her busy schedule to buy it.
Seeing this, Jun sighed in his heart and instructed the maid beside his daughter to pack up all the things that the girl used closely. She came to her daughter's side, took the little girl's hand, and said softly:
"The parting is only temporary, didn't you promise the fourth prince to go to Shengjing next spring to help him and the Emperor of Yanguo recuperate? In a few months, you will be able to see King Ning again! ”
"I know," Gu Yezui said stiffly, "It's because the weather is too cold, so I don't want to move, it's not that I can't bear that person." Mother, you think too much! ”
"Good, good! It's my mother who is too worried. You're almost packed, and you're ready to go, right? Jun smiled and said, "Your eldest brother said in the letter that he should be able to rush back to spend the New Year with us." I don't know if I'm in the capital now! ”
Gu Ye's impression of the eldest brother only stayed on the image of a calm, majestic, and decisive young general. The intersection with him is to treat his wounds, and the other is to develop the cowpox vaccine in Yancheng. She is a little worried, will the eldest brother have a sense of distance and not be easy to get along with?
Attention was partially distracted, and Gu Ye seemed to feel a little less uncomfortable after Ling Juechen's parting.
The weather has been good these days, with clear skies, dry and cold. Jun took his daughter and sat in a carriage for most of the day, and finally returned to the Zhenguo Mansion. I have to say that the quality of the stewards and subordinates in the Zhenguo Mansion is quite good, even if the master has been away for nearly a month, it is still in order.
In the evening, when the family sat around for dinner, Chu Muhua finally rushed back. There was a layer of frost on his hair and eyebrows, Chu Muhua's face was tired, but his waist was still straight, and his eyes were shining in the candlelight, like a sword out of the sheath, with its edge exposed.
General Chu looked at the successor he had cultivated with satisfaction, patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Go, wash your face, change your clothes, and come over for dinner." ”
Chu Muhua's gaze swept through the family one by one, and finally stayed on the little girl who was snuggled up to the Jun family, petite and weak, looking at him curiously. He walked up to the little girl and solemnly introduced himself: "Sister, I am your eldest brother!" ”
Gu Ye stood up and gave him a big hug in Chu Muhua's surprised eyes: "Big brother, welcome home - Ah Hao!" ”
Jun hurriedly pulled the youngest daughter back, asked the subordinate to bring a hand stove over, stuffed it into her hand, and said to the eldest son reproachfully: "Don't go change your clothes yet!" Your sister was just rightly injured, and she couldn't help the chill on your body. ”
Gu Ye rubbed his little nose and said coquettishly: "Mother, how can I be as weak as you say." I just felt a little itchy in my nose just now, how can I blame the big brother? ”
Chu Muhua took a step back from her side and said, "It's the eldest brother who is not thoughtful." I'll go wash up first, and then I'll come back and talk to my sister......" With that, he turned and left.
Looking at his straight back, Gu Ye whispered, "Mother, has the eldest brother always been like this?" ”
"Which one?" Jun looked at her questioningly.
Gu Ye straightened his little face, and learned the words of the eldest brother expressionlessly: "Wait for the eldest brother to wash up, and then talk to my sister...... Has Big Brother always been so serious? ”
Old Man Chu laughed and said, "When your eldest brother was a child, he was more stable than his peers. In addition, he has the heavy responsibility of shouldering the eldest son and grandson, and he has always been strict with himself, and over time, he has developed such a character. Ye'er, don't be afraid, after getting along for a long time, you will find that your eldest brother looks serious, but he is actually a toothless tiger......"
Chu Muhua is worthy of being born in the army, washing and changing clothes, it didn't take a quarter of an hour. He lifted the curtain and came in, and when he heard the "toothless tiger" in his grandfather's mouth, he knew that the old man was arranging him again.
Chu Muhua didn't say anything, sat down on the newly added stool next to her sister, tried her best to soften her expression, and said softly: "Mother, little sister, I personally hunted a few skins in the north, and the condition is not bad, let the sewing room in the house make you two sweaters to wear." ”
"Thank you, big brother!" Although Gu Ye is not short of furs, there are several newly made Yan Mink clothes, but this is a piece of the eldest brother's heart, she naturally will not refuse, and said thank you loudly.
Chu Muhua smiled at the corner of her mouth, glanced at her softly, and said, "My brother and sister, you don't have to say thank you...... By the way, Di Rong's Dongzhu is very good, I asked someone to replace a box, and my sister took it to play......"
As he spoke, he took out a box more than a foot square from his arms and placed it on the table in front of Gu Ye. Gu Ye opened the box and was pleasantly surprised to find that it was full of thumb-sized Dongzhu. Such Dongzhu, if you get it to the capital, each one can be sold for a price of 1,000 taels. Chu Dashao is really generous to his sister, and it is a box as soon as he makes a move!
Chu Xiaowu heard those buddies say that girls like rare jewelry, clothing and so on. Seeing these Dongzhu, he couldn't help but think of the county lord Anya, so he said shamelessly: "Big brother, I and my second brother are married, so you don't have any gifts for us?" ”
Chu Muhua raised her eyebrows at him, and said in surprise: "I know about the second child's marriage." When did you get married? Why didn't you mention it in the letter? ”
Chu Xiaowu coughed twice, and said with a slightly hot cheek: "It's still ...... It's still undecided...... However, it is only a formality. My mother said that when I got out of the New Year, I would go to help me propose. Big brother, haven't you prepared for the meeting gift for your future siblings? ”
Chu Muhua was even more surprised, looking him up and down, as if it was a strange thing for him to marry. Chu Xiaowu said a little annoyed: "Big brother, what do you mean? Could it be that in your heart, your brother is so bad that no one wants it? ”
"It's not!" Chu Muhua also felt that her gaze was a little too explicit, and explained, "I'm just a little surprised, whose little girl can endure your mouth......"
"What's wrong with my mouth? Isn't it...... Be blunt, people like me! Chu Xiaowu made a complacent attitude. Gu Ye made a vomiting gesture at him on the side. Chu Xiaowu glared and waved his fist at her.
Gu Ye immediately complained to the small complaint: "Big brother, the fifth brother has a daughter-in-law and forgets his sister." Look at him, how dare he threaten me! ”
"He dares! Sister, don't be afraid, after dinner, the eldest brother will take Xiao Wu to the martial arts arena to chat! Chu Muhua glanced at the fifth brother lightly.
Chu Mu Budden was like a deflated ball, deflated. He wailed and said, "Little sister, don't bring such a trickery." You've made me miserable! ”
As the eldest brother, Chu Muhua has shouldered the heavy responsibility of urging his younger brothers to practice martial arts since he was a child, and in the martial arts arena, the most ruthless is not the old general who does not show favoritism, nor the seemingly stern Zhenguo Gong, but this Chu Dashao, who is not a few years older than his younger brothers!
Even the dragons and phoenixes among people like Chu Er and Chu San have been abused by the eldest brother, not to mention Chu Xiaowu, who jumped out. The brothers secretly poked and poked Chu Xiaowu with a "self-begging" look.
Gu Ye continued to pull the eldest brother's sleeve and complained: "Big brother, you see that the fifth brother still falsely accused me and said that I cheated him." How could I behave like a beautiful, well-behaved, sensible, and lovely sister who cheated my brother? This is an insult to my personality. Big brother, you have to take care of him. Or he can go to heaven! ”
"Okay, big brother must take care of him 'well'!" Chu Muhua naturally saw that the little sister was justifiably pitting Xiao Wu.
