Before the sedan chair was sent in the evening, Chen Yan, the personal disciple of the Yixing County Lord, finally hurried back, so it was logical to act as a member of the send-off family. When he arrived at Dai's house, although he did not sit first on behalf of the bride's mother's family at the wedding banquet, he was half a brother-in-law after all, so he was poured a lot of wine, and Yang Jinzhou blocked several glasses for him, so he finally came back completely, but the smell of wine made Chen Lan startled.

It wasn't until Chen Yan woke up after using the decanting soup and thanked Yang Jinzhou with a big tongue that Chen Lan knew that there was such a small episode in the mansion over there, and he felt a lot of gratitude in his heart. In addition, the things of the day were still in her heart after all, so when Yang Jinzhou said goodbye, she said gratefully: "Today is really thanks to Lord Yang, and I thank you for sending the fourth brother back." ”

"It's okay, when I was in the war, in order to keep warm, I drank a burning knife that was stronger than this."

The county lord of Yixing looked at the eyebrows between the two with great interest, but after all, there was a different atmosphere, and he thought about it with a slight groan, because he smiled: "It's really late now, and you really helped me a lot today." But it's all a family, and I won't say anything thank you. Ah Lan, I still have something to tell your godfather, you can send your uncle to the second gate. ”

Chen Lan already had something to say to Yang Jinzhou, so he subconsciously agreed at this time. However, when I got out of the gate of this courtyard, I saw that although the Mingwa lantern had been lit, there was no mother-in-law and daughter-in-law waiting for the lantern outside the door, only the red snail in front of me and the red tassel lantern behind me illuminated. At this moment, she remembered that this is the west road of the Korean Mansion, although it is said that there is a corner gate and the residence of Zhang Ming and Chen on the middle road, but at this time, the corner gate is closed, and the people there can't pass, so there is no risk that someone will see what gossip. Even with such a seemingly light and clever proposal, the county lord of Yixing was still extremely thoughtful.

Walking a few steps silently along the road, Chen Lan saw that Hongluo walked far forward without any instructions, and the footsteps of Hongying and Changdi behind her were extremely light, she understood the thoughts of these three girls, so she explained to Yang Jinzhou in a low voice about today's Mrs. Ji.

The moonlight at night is not very good, and after the Mid-Autumn Festival, the weather at night is getting colder and colder, the festive atmosphere of the day has faded, and now there is silence around, even the insects that fill the ears in the summer have disappeared, leaving only Chen Lan's low voice and the rhythmic footsteps.

“…… At that time, seeing His Royal Highness King Zhou happily hugging Mrs. Ji and laughing and jumping, I couldn't help but think that Mrs. Ji might have simply been calculated. But this may seem like this on the surface, but I always feel that I have seen the sadness of His Royal Highness King Zhou when the queen died, and I have seen his childish smile now...... I really don't want to see him cry again."

"Me and Mrs. Ji...... Excluding this one, only one or two times from afar. Listening to Chen Lan's words, Yang Jinzhou didn't seem to know how to speak, and pondered for a while before continuing, "I don't know what kind of person Mrs. Ji is, but His Royal Highness King Zhou may not be sound in the eyes of some people, but he is very keen. The person he can get close to will never be the person who is in front of him and behind the back, because no matter how good the disguise is, it is impossible to wear a mask in front of a person like him all the time, and there is always a time to relax. So, I think you're right, Mrs. Ji should really just be invited by Mother Qian. ”

In the past half a year, Chen Lan has always wrapped herself in the strongest shell, and she has always been used to breaking people's hearts and thinking about it, if it weren't for the clear eyes and smile of King Lin Taikan of Zhou today, she might also habitually think about Mrs. Ji in some aspects. Therefore, she didn't dare to say these words in front of the annoyed Yixing County Lord, but just now she confided all of them. When she heard Yang Jinzhou answer, she stopped all of a sudden.

"Do you really think so?"

"People's hearts are fickle and sinister, but I believe that there will always be unwavering hearts in the world, and there will always be people with true feelings and intentions."

Looking at Yang Jinzhou's firm and confident face, Chen Lan only felt that his heart was relaxed all of a sudden. She nodded slightly, then let out a long sigh of relief, and then turned her head to look at the waning moon looming in the dark clouds: "You're right, you can't feel that there has never been a bright moon in the sky just because the stars in the sky are covered by dark clouds, and the moon only has a crescent moon left...... Thank you very much today, not only for you to send Xiaosi back, but also for me to untie the knot. ”

Yang Jinzhou looked at Chen Lan's beautiful side face looking up at the sky, and when he reached the other half of his mouth, he didn't know how it suddenly turned into three simple words: "Don't worry." ”

Chen Lan turned her head suddenly, and saw that Yang Jinzhou's face was full of concentration, as if she was not answering but promise, she was stunned for a moment, and it took a long time before she bloomed a pleasant smile: "Okay." ”

For the rest of the way, the two didn't say anything again, just walked forward side by side. The rustling footsteps were a little chaotic at first, but gradually they overlapped a little, and when the last two doors were in sight, the two stopped almost at the same time.

"Just send it here."

"I'll leave it here."

After saying this sentence one after another, the two looked at each other for a moment, and smiled knowingly. As soon as Yang Jin and Zhou Pingping arched his hand, he turned his head and strode towards the second gate, while Chen Lan stood up from a slightly bent knee, looking at the back that was gradually moving away, and only felt extremely happy and happy in his heart. At that moment, whether it was the short sword sent by Yang Jinzhou or the box, it only represented a piece of his heart, but today's encounter made her deeply contact him for the first time.

Before coming out today, Chen Lan had already told the Zhu family that she would stay overnight in the Korean Mansion, so at this time, she watched the second door close and lock, and she took the three girls back. When she returned to the house and saw the county lord of Yixing again, she saw him looking at her with a playful gaze, so she said generously: "Thank you mother for giving me the opportunity just now." ”

"I, a mother, know the character of the two of you, and I'm not afraid of you giving each other privately, of course I have to leave a chance to speak openly and honestly." The county lord of Yixing smiled slightly, and then pointed to the room next to him and said, "If you are also like your little four, drunk and asleep and never finish talking in your dreams, then I don't dare to relax so much."

"Little Four Talking in Sleep?"

Chen Lan was stunned when she heard this, glanced at the county lord of Yixing and lifted the curtain into the east house, and sure enough, when she smelled the lingering wine burp, she heard Chen Yan muttering something softly there. By the time she took a few more steps, she finally understood the utterly unsentenced words.

"Sister...... I...... Future...... Back...... Fight for breath...... Zheng'er her father...... No...... It makes people look at ......."

At first, Chen Lan was still a little moved when she heard it, but when Chen Yan muttered about Du Ge Lao, and then frowned again and showed an angry and annoyed expression, she finally couldn't help laughing, and stepped forward and smacked her fingers on the little guy's high forehead. Seeing that he moved his arm in annoyance, then turned over and fell asleep again, she sat down on the edge of the kang and gently brushed away a few strands of hair that had fallen on his face.

Since when did she really think of him as her brother? It was from the books he had painstakingly gathered for himself to read; Or did he gradually open his mind and no longer hoped to inherit the Marquis of Yangning with resentment; Or is he willing to practice martial arts and study, and he is determined to support her in the future...... This young man who is only a little older, just for him from beginning to end, is purely for the sake of her sister, all her plans, all her efforts, are worth it.

"Little four, grow up quickly, then these burdens will be picked up by you"

The county lord of Yixing stood outside the door with a curtain in one hand, looking at Chen Lan's gentle movements and gentle voice, her complexion couldn't help but soften, and the smile in her eyes deepened.

Her good son-in-law and her baby daughter...... It should be all the best tonight, right?

The west second room of Yuhui Hall, Middle Road, South Korea.

Although sleeping in the same bed, Zhang Ming and Chen were back to back, their eyes wide open. I don't know how long it took, but Chen suddenly said without looking back: "Do you remember the time when Hui Yu married into the Jin Palace?" ”

"I'll never forget it in my life." Zhang Ming replied lightly.

Chen Shi understood the wrong husband's meaning, and immediately chuckled: "That pomp is bigger than today's pomp, one of the main and deputy marriage envoys is the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and the other is the squire of the Ministry of War, at that time, no one dared to come to see the excitement in the headline alley in front of the door, all of them were looking from afar, and even the relatives of the world were envious of our family's ......."

"Don't say it" Zhang Ming finally couldn't help but drink his chattering wife, lifted the quilt and sat up suddenly, "It's just a princess who is held to the sky when she needs it, and kicked aside when she doesn't need it, what is there to envy Hui Yu can't have any more children in this life, do you know"

"I know, how could I not know......" Chen Shi seemed to not know Zhang Ming's rude action of getting up, his back to the wall, and he had burst into tears unconsciously, "Mother, because I am the only daughter like me, I have suffered all my life, how can I not know what it feels like...... If time can really go back, I also hope that she will only marry an ordinary person like Huixin and live with Hemeimei, but it's too late, it's too late."

Zhang Ming, who had already put on his robe, froze suddenly, and only sat down on the edge of the bed for a long time, buried his head in his palms and sighed deeply. He landed in glory and wealth, and he didn't seek to get ahead in this life, if he didn't have such a bad son-in-law, would others be guilty of forcing him down that road? He can hold on, but what about his daughter, how long can his poor daughter last?

The wife has already regretted it, and presumably the mother-in-law has also regretted it...... But now, what's the use of a word of repentance?
