MTL - The Sweet Little Fulang-Chapter 226

While Lu Gu and Shen Yan were cooking, Shen Xuanqing went to Yang's house with Ling Ge'er under an umbrella.

I heard from Lu Gu that Mrs. Yan and Lao Yangtou had been thinking about him for half a year, often came to see him, and sometimes helped with the children. Naturally, he had to go and let the old couple know that he was okay and had come back.

As soon as Mr. Yan saw him, he burst into tears, calling out to the second boy with tears in his eyes. Even Lao Yang's head was wet, but a big stone fell in his heart.

It was raining heavily, so he still called Mrs. Yan and Lao Yangtou over to eat, and also called Yang Xian and a few people in the tavern on the way.

There were few people who came to eat when it was raining. There were only a few customers who entered the door when it was raining. Yang Xian asked his staff to watch the restaurant, and the group went to Pearl Alley.

On the Gu family's side, since Shen Yan was not married yet, he was not considered a serious relative, so he didn't go to shout when the rain was getting worse. They also took good care of Lu Gu and Shen Yan. It's okay, don't worry.

He hadn't come back for half a year, and the food at home was different from the one outside. He couldn't help eating in a hurry. Everyone at the table let him.

After eating and drinking, Mrs. Yan asked him why he didn't send a message to his family if he hadn't come back for so long.

As soon as these words came out, Lu Gu also looked at Shen Xuanqing.

Shen Xuanqing took a sip of tea, because Ni'er was also on the table. She was older than Brother Ling and her younger brother and could understand what the adults were saying. He looked at the children with hesitant expressions.

It was about Shen Xuanqing, and Lu Gu didn't want to miss it, so he looked at Shen Yan.

Shen Yan understood his eyes, so she got up and took the three children to play in her house. As for what happened outside, she would just ask later.

After they entered the room, Shen Xuanqing sighed softly and said, "At that time, when we were halfway through and arrived at Tianying Ridge, I never expected to encounter two teams of horses, one of which was chasing and killing the other, and the horse team was sleeping in the forest for the night, for fear of being seen by us. , that group of masked men in black are going to kill people."

"There are so many complicated things in this court, and I know only a little about it. You should also avoid it. Don't make any noise. Now that things are settled, it's peaceful, but in case there are other things, you must keep your mouth shut."

Seeing that everyone at the table nodded and held their breath, he continued: "When we were escaping for our lives in the mountains, it was only me, Biaozi and Qiu Lao, Da Qiu, the third child. After Cui Rongwei, it is the Lord Cui in the capital."

"I didn't know it originally, I only heard the name, but Boss Qiu often walks outside. He knows a lot. The man and the two guards under his hand were injured and hid in the mountains. The group of masked people is Kill a few of them along the way."

"Master Cui had reinforcements, and then we ran for our lives together. The capital did not dare to go back for a while, so we went to hide in Yuncheng in the north. There were signs on the vehicles of the horse team, and those brothers had wooden talismans on them. If I can find us here, I dare not write a letter, for fear of revealing the trace, and you will suffer as well."

"Fortunately, there is Mr. Cui, he can't bear us to suffer unwarranted disasters, and he used some means to stumble on people in the dark, and didn't tell them to free their hands to check us little scoundrels."

"I don't know much about the matter in the court. At that time, I was caught in a dispute, and I didn't dare to act rashly. Ten days ago, Mr. Cui said that the matter was completely resolved, and he didn't even need to hide. We just rushed back from Yuncheng. Yesterday Resting in Shichuan Town at night, this morning, I came back on horseback first, it is raining today, Biaozi and the others will definitely rest at Yuqingfu City."

He spoke for half a year in a few simple words.

It was chasing and killing and escaping for her life, and Yan Shi was stunned for a while. She was an old country woman, how could she have thought that such a thing would happen.

Shen Xuanqing said it lightly, without mentioning the danger of escaping, but everyone present knew that escaping would not be easy.

"Just come back, just come back." Yan Shi muttered, and couldn't help but recite Amitabha.

They talked for a while, the rain was light, and seeing that it was not early, the Yang family went back first to let him rest at night.

Shen Xuanqing originally thought about rushing back to his hometown overnight so that Wei Lanxiang would know that he was back, but the rain didn't stop, the road was too wet and muddy, and he couldn't see clearly at night, so he had to give up and see what happened in the morning.

Shen Yan didn't hear what he said in the room, so she couldn't hold back her curiosity. When he and Lu Gu closed the courtyard door and came in, they asked again.

Shen Xuanqing repeated what she said before, and asked her how her marriage was going. After chatting for a while, the water in the clay pot boiled, and a few people scooped water to wash their hands. Because he was working all the way, Lu Gu first scooped up and washed his feet. Water soothes soothing.

Lu Gu first made the bed to put Brother Ling to sleep. He was very happy, and his eyes kept smiling.

It was dark outside, the lights were lit in the room, Shen Xuanqing sat at the table soaking his feet, and the good boy ran in to rub his legs.

I haven't seen each other for half a year, the dog whimpered, and he reached out and rubbed the dog's head.

Lu Gu covered Brother Ling with the quilt, got out of bed and pulled out Shen Xuanqing's clothes from the suitcase, and said, "You changed your clothes tonight, go back tomorrow to see your mother wearing this."

"Okay." Shen Xuanqing agreed, because the child was asleep, he looked at Lu Gu and said in a low voice, "I've lost weight."

Lu Gu paused for a moment, his eyes glistened with water, but he held it back and said with a smile, "I haven't lost a few taels, but I have a lot of meat at home, just make up for it."

"Well, make it up, I'll buy what I want to eat tomorrow." Shen Xuanqing bent a pair of star eyes.

Lu Gu handed over the foot towel and said, "What to buy, the sheep at home can be killed. When the eldest brother went back today, he said that he would bring it over tomorrow. Just in time, you are back. Let's stew mutton to eat."

"Okay, let's eat stewed mutton." Shen Xuanqing naturally said what he said.

Lu Gu actually had a lot to ask, but just now at the dinner table, what should have been said, those days when he was fleeing for his life, but there was nowhere to ask, so he asked: "Did you buy that horse?"

Speaking of this, Shen Xuanqing suddenly laughed and said, "Yes, I bought it, and it will be our family's horse in the future. According to what you said, it is a docile horse. After a while, I will become familiar with it, and I will teach you You ride a horse, then you can sit up with the child, and I can go out with the horse."

He wiped his feet, put on his shoes and carried the tub to the door to pour water.

Lu Gu laid a quilt for the two of them, thinking that fortunately they had been exposed to the sun a few days ago, and even Luo Biao's bedding roll had been exposed, and the other party would come back tomorrow with a comfortable cover.

When Shen Xuanqing took off his clothes, he waited beside him, so he could take them and put them in the laundry tub outside.

Afraid that there would be something in the clothes and the water would be inadvertently soaked, he asked while touching, "Is the money hidden in the close-fitting cloth pocket?"

This clothes belonged to Shen Xuanqing himself, and there were several inner pockets that Lu Gu sewed for him. He sat beside the bed and took off his shoes, saying, "Yes, there are more than ten taels of silver left, they are separated, you can take them out. Take it out."

Speaking of this, he suddenly remembered that there was something else in his clothes, and before he could say it, he saw that piece of jade pendant was touched out.

Lu Gu had never seen the jade pendant in his hand, but he could distinguish it a little under the lamp, but it was a jade pendant with a dragon pattern.

He asked suspiciously, "You bought this?"

Shen Xuanqing took the jade pendant in his hand, and after thinking about it, he lowered his voice and told the truth, there was such a jade pendant, and he couldn't hide it.

"This jade pendant was given to me by Master Cui. He wanted to let me work under him, and also promised to put my name on the Imperial City Heijia Army Feather Team, but I politely declined. We are far from the capital. There are old and young at home, and I really can't go, so he gave me this."

The Imperial City Heijia Army, even Lu Gu has heard a few ears, that is the person next to the emperor, who can become the Heijia Army, not those dignitaries in the capital, or those who really have the ability, and said that this jade pendant belongs to the palace Something, he couldn't help but take a few more glances.

For him, the Imperial Palace of the Capital City was even more distant than Yuqing Mansion City, and he didn't even dare to think about it.

Seeing Lu Gu looking at Yu Pei, Shen Xuanqing handed over the things again and said, "Master Cui said that this is what the emperor rewarded him, the things in the palace, if there is something wrong in the future, and the road is too long to reach the capital, take it to Yuqing Fucheng to find the palace. Ya can."

The candles shone brightly. This jade pendant was indeed different from the rough jade pendant that Lu Gu had seen. It was gentle and delicate. He was not an expert, so he could only figure out the difference.

After listening, he was not fooled by Shen Xuanqing, raised his eyes and asked, "Why did Master Cui give you this?"

To say that Shen Xuanqing was able to survive, the people who hunted and killed did not find Jixing Town. It was all thanks to Lord Cui. They would be considered rude if they didn't go to thank them. Instead, Shen Xuanqing won the jade pendant for not going to work under them. Why? Can't figure it out.

Shen Xuanqing sighed softly, and then smiled: "I didn't want to tell you about these pickled things, why are you so smart today?"

The long-lost compliment made Lu Gu's brows instantly twitch, and he couldn't hold back his smile at all.

"Because I saved Mr. Cui's life when I was running for my life in the mountains. Mr. Cui was the emperor's confidant, and this jade pendant was his thanks. Later in Yuncheng, I heard that the group of people might be able to find us here. I thought about it. With all of you at home, if you are attacked by bad guys, how can you hold back, just work with the people under Master Cui, then the disputes in the court are really different from petty troubles, and the arrangements are intensively arranged for half a year, and it was completely resolved half a month ago."

The smile on Lu Gu's face gradually disappeared, his brows furrowed together, and he asked, "Then the injury on your face was caused by going to work?"

Shen Xuanqing touched his face, it was left by the group of people who ambushed half a month ago. He originally used bows and arrows to cover the back, but in the end, even he went up and was inevitably injured. Fortunately, there were many of them at that time. Just a minor injury.

"Also on your body?" Seeing that he didn't speak, Lu Gu asked again.

"Small injury, it's almost healed." Shen Xuanqing smiled, he didn't intentionally worry Lu Gu, he took off his jacket and turned his back.

There are several healed wounds on the back, and just like the face, there are still shallow marks.

The injury was not serious, so Lu Gu was relieved.

"Don't tell your family about this, it's fine if you know it. When I go back tomorrow, I'll only tell my mother about it." Shen Xuanqing took off his shirt and the clothes inside were dirty.

When he was changing his clothes, Lu Gu turned his back and said, "Well, I see. If it doesn't rain tomorrow, let's go home, boil some water at home, and you can wash too."

"Okay." Shen Xuanqing quickly changed into clean underwear.

After the two of them lay down, Lu Gu slept inside as usual, the candle was blown out, his eyes darkened, and soon, Shen Xuanqing, who had turned over, hugged him in his arms.

After six months of trepidation, he finally put his heart in his stomach.

Shen Xuanqing hadn't heard anything for half a year, and many people didn't say anything, but in their hearts they thought that Shen Xuanqing was bad luck, but he never believed it, he kept waiting with this idea, and finally came back.
