Back To My Husband’s Youth - Chapter 88
Today is my grandmother’s birthday.
Li Qinyuan didn’t like this house anymore, and he stayed with others for dinner, and then left when they were ready to rest.
At the order of Mrs. Li, Chan Yi took Li Qinyuan out with a lamp. When he put on his cloak, he passed the food container in his hand and said: “The old lady is afraid that you will be hungry at night. I have prepared food for you, and the slave still wrapped a few layers of cloth on the outside, so that the road won’t get cold.”
“It’s all you like to eat in the old days.”
“A big bowl of fermented rice **** with a few mee vegetable meat biscuits, as well as the leftover roast duck in the middle of the night. Knowing that you are afraid of getting tired, all the skins on the outside are given to you. Whether you want to eat it alone with the sauce It doesn’t matter if you still wrap it in the sesame seed.”
Li Qinyuan’s fingers were still hooking the thin cloak, and when he heard the words, he laughed a little helplessly, “How old am I, why does my grandmother treat me as a child? There are also windows in the academy. If I’m really hungry, go there it is also fine.”
Saying that, I still took it.
Chanyi smiled and said, “Where do you treat you as a child, the old lady feels sorry that you are alone outside, and you are not willing to take the schoolchildren like other young masters. You have to do everything on your own. The old lady always Speaking of it, I have to wipe a tear.”
He said and sighed again, “These days when you are away, the old lady can’t do anything and eat too much.”
Li Qinyuan knew what she meant, but he remained silent, and waited until the others had finished speaking before taking a sentence, “Please take care of your grandmother. If there is something wrong, come to the academy and talk to me.”
Chan Yi naturally has no reason to be unreasonable. While carrying a light to send people out, he continued: “The slave remembers that the college is about to take an exam. You should go home sooner after the exam this year. New Year’s Eve is also your birthday. The old lady is already talking about it. It’s been a long time.”
A few years ago, the Seventh Young Master had an unpleasant quarrel with the Grand Lord, and even on New Year’s Eve, he just came back and gave the old lady a kowtow, and then disappeared.
“talk later.”
Li Qinyuan neither agreed nor refused. He had already walked outside. He stopped, took the light from Chanyi’s hand, and walked out alone with the food box and the light.
Chanyi sighed again as he watched the figure he was leaving, and when he was gone, he turned around and went back.
When he reached the outer courtyard, Li Qinyuan’s pace slowed down. The snow had stopped, but the wind was strong overnight. The snow pressed by the tops of the eaves and treetops was blown by the freezing cold wind, and it looked like white hair. , Hit people without going to the side.
Li Qinyuan closed his eyes and turned his head, and then opened his eyes again and looked forward when the cold wind passed.
Today, he did not wear a high ponytail as before. Instead, he wore a white jade crown and a brocade shirt. A few strands of ink and some fine snow stuck to his cheeks, making the jade-like face even more beautiful. There was a little more dusty taste, but his long and narrow Danfeng eyes were even colder than the snow in this winter.
He just stood on the spot, looking at the front faintly.
There stood a middle-aged man, forty-year-old, dressed in Tsing Yi. His facial features were very similar to those of Li Qinyuan, as if they were carved out of a mold, but their temperaments were very different.
Li Qinyuan is like a ball of fire. Even if he is usually indifferent and careless, there is a ball of fire in his heart. There is unwillingness and anger in the fire, so he will desperately break the shackles on his body and escape from this let. What he hates.
What about Li Cen Shen?
He carries the killing aura of the northern desert on his body. It is the iron bones left over from decades of fighting, but his temperament is very quiet, like a lukewarm warm water, you can’t see it from this man. His emotions even harder to see what he was thinking.
Li Qinyuan didn’t want to look, let alone guess. He stood there and watched for a while, then suddenly raised his steps and walked over in silence.
There was no pause, and there was no intention to look at people more. Just as he was about to pass by, Li Censhen spoke, his voice was quiet and flat, “I heard that you saved the two children of Gu’s family.”
Li Qinyuan didn’t reply, and the steps under his feet didn’t mean to stop. Li Cen Shen looked at the corner of his clothes and opened his mouth to say something, but in the end he closed his mouth and remained silent.
“Little master.”
Wei Qingyi was coming in from the outside and saw Li Qinyuan approaching with a cold face, and he quickly walked to the side to salute people. Seeing that he didn’t even say a word, he walked outside, and the grandpa was not far away with his back on his back. While standing, he sighed slightly, still maintaining a respectful posture, and then walked towards Li Cencan after the others left, “Master Guo.”
“Ok.”
Li Cen Shen nodded lightly. He turned his head to see Li Qinyuan had gone out and didn’t say anything. Instead, he asked people, “What’s the situation at the border.”
Wei Qingyi replied: “Everything is fine for the time being, but in recent years, the Turkic royal family has been a little uneasy, and the prince has been impeached. If the second prince is in charge, with that temperament, I am afraid…the border will be uneasy again.”
“Got it.”
Li Cencan looked at the door with his hands on his shoulders, “After the Chinese New Year is over, I will go back.”
“Duke Guo…” Wei Qingyi frowned and persuaded, “Your health is still not well. Your Majesty will also allow you to stay in Beijing for a few more years to rest. You should wait until your health is well before you go back.”
“No need.”
Li Cen’s tone was not tolerable, and Wei Qingyi didn’t dare to say it anymore. He just thought of Li Qinyuan, who had left before, and couldn’t help but say: “There are some things, why didn’t you tell the young master? The letter you received from your wife was the most critical moment of the battle. In order to come back earlier, you fought without sleep for four days, and you were seriously injured…”
His voice lowered, and the circles under his eyes were red. “Your body is caused by that time that you refused to stay to heal. You dragged such a body and ran away five horses quickly. Why are you… Did you make it clear?”
“If you make it clear, Xiaoye won’t… hate you for so many years.”
Li Cen Shen called him, “Qingshan.”
In this vast snowy world, in the roaring cold wind, his voice seemed vague, “I am not a good husband or a good father. In my heart, the country is always greater than home.”
“He hates me because of this.”
“correct.”
“The Lord of the Country…”
“Go and rest.” After Li Cen said, he turned and walked towards the inner courtyard.
Wei Qingyi watched him leave. He has followed him since Li Cengshen was just a small ginseng general. After so many years, the vigorous young man in the past also started to have gray hair. He looked really uncomfortable. .
The inner court.
Yin Wan had just coaxed Dong’er to fall asleep. At this time, she was sitting in a chair and flipping through her books. When she saw Yichun coming in, she just lifted her eyelids and asked casually, “Where is the prince of the country?”
Yichun seemed to hesitate, and after a while, he replied in a low voice: “Grandpa Guo…he went to Jinguiyuan.”
“Ok,”
Yin Wan turned over another page of the ledger, her voice was calm, without anger, “I see.”
Yichun looked at her but was a little anxious, so she couldn’t help but walked over and said, “Madam, the grandfather of the country has been back for so long, and he has never rested with you, why are you not worried at all?
The rest of the people in the house had already gone out, and the only Dong’er had already fallen asleep.
Yin Wan smiled and put down the ledger in her hand and looked up at her, “Yichun, what do you want in this life?”
“what?”
Yichun was startled, blushing for a while, and replied in a low voice: “The slave wants to save more money, and one finds a loyal and honest husband…” After speaking, he saw Yin Wan’s smiling eyes and quickly added another sentence. “I want to stay with Madam and wait on you all the time.”
Yin Wan smiled, “Then do you know what I want?”
Yichun replied in a low voice: “The slave doesn’t know.”
“What I asked before is that the couple should be harmonious, and the white heads are old.” Yin Wan looked at the lampshade painted with beauties, the candlelight was swaying, the voice was neither high nor low, neither happy nor angry, “but I didn’t wait.”
Although Yichun followed Yin Wan later, she also knows that his wife had been married before. I heard that she was a cousin who grew up with her childhood sweetheart. Unfortunately, she got married within a few years and made a peace of mind. She suddenly regretted mentioning it. Today’s topic is over, and his voice is a little bewildered, “Madam, slave…”
“It’s okay.”
Yin Wan knew what she was thinking, smiled and patted the back of her hand, indicating that she was OK, and then she said with others: “That’s just a fallacy when I was young. I ask for it now, but the world is safe and Dong’er is safe. grow up.”
As she spoke, she glanced in the back room again, and there was a figure of a child under the cyan curtain.
The child sleeps very soundly and peacefully.
Yin Wan looked at her, her eyebrows softened again, and when she turned her head, she continued and said, “You are the maid by my side, and speaking on weekdays also represents me. Today you It’s okay to bring up this matter, and I will tell you my thoughts too, so that I won’t be able to pick things up with those things in the future.”
“Duke Guo was kind to me, he rescued me from the quagmire and gave me dignity and identity. I respect him and the old lady with heart.”
“I know that many people in our house feel that Qi Lang is at odds with the Lord, so they put their minds on Dong’er. Although Dong’er was born in a prostitute, I have never had any other thoughts. I only hope that he will be safe and sound. Grow up.”
“If someone comes to Dong’er and talks indiscriminately in the future, and their brothers are at odds with each other, don’t blame me for being polite.”
Speaking of the last sentence, Yin Wan’s voice has cooled down, and Yichun’s face turned pale, and she quickly knelt down, “If the slave can save it, tomorrow’s slave will go and mention them, and never let the screwdriver stain the young master’s ears.”
Yin Wan helped her up, patted her hand again, and smiled, “It’s good if you understand.”
The candlelight in the room flickered, and her voice brought some stability after years of precipitation, or the calmness of the world afterwards, “People can ask for anything in their entire life, but remember one sentence, if you are greedy, you will lose. Don’t think about the things that don’t belong to you.”
“In this way, we can be stable in this world.”
After all, Yichun was still young, so she couldn’t help but ask: “Madam, then you don’t have any thoughts in your heart that the grandpa can…” She probably felt that she was really arrogant, so she didn’t dare to say it again, “It’s late at night, slaves serve.” You wash up.”
Yin Wan smiled and didn’t say anything. When Yichun retreated, she didn’t go to sleep immediately, but stood in front of the hexagonal palace lantern.
After the candle burned all night, it was a little dim. She picked up the wick with the golden picket. With a “pop”, the wick jumped, and the wick that had only dim lighted up again. Yin Wan just fiddled with it. With.
She naturally expected it.
When she met Li Cencan, she had already returned to her natal family. The parents who loved her in the past felt that she had lost the face of the Yin family. Not to mention the elder brother and sister-in-law, even the nephews and nieces that she had taken care of in the past also thought of her privately. Shame.
Disappointment is accumulated day by day, and strong emotions are also missing in such accumulated disappointments.
Whether it is love or family affection…
She didn’t dare to be able to marry Li Censhen. The **** of war of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the famous Wei Guogong, was the second marriage. There were also princes and nobles who wanted to send their daughter there, but in the end Li Censhen picked her out.
Just because of what she said with someone at the beginning.
-“Duke Guo, I know that you married a wife just for someone to take care of the family. Although I am not more noble than those daughters, but I am good at taking care of the house. I also know that you still have a wife in your heart. I will not go over. I do not ask for anything else. , Just ask the grandfather of the country to give me a dignity and honor.”
She is an ambitious woman.
Those who were unwilling to stay with the blue light for the rest of their life, and even more unwilling to abuse her, were happy and happy ever since, so she looked for Li Cencan in spite of her face, hoping that one day she could fight back those who were sorry for her.
Li Censhen gave her dignity and honor, allowing her to be among the celebrities in the capital and the enviable wife of Wei Guogong.
The people who insulted her at the time have disappeared in the capital. Even her family members can only rely on her nose to survive. No one will not love such Li Cencan, but she knows how to measure and what she can ask for. , What can’t be asked for.
She gets what she deserves, so she won’t think about things that don’t belong to her.
affection……
Others are rare and precious, if not rare, it is just a river of spring water flowing eastward.
She is Yin Wan. Although she is not from a famous family, she also has her pride. She doesn’t belong to her wholeheartedly, she doesn’t want it.
That was the case at the time.
Today, the same is true.
“Cracking”, the candle flame jumped a few times, from the half-light to the bright hall again, Yin Wan watched and laughed for a while, then put down the golden switch in her hand, put on the lampshade, and cleaned her hands. , Went to rest.
The end of the year was approaching in a few days.
Luming Academy finally ushered in this year’s exam. Unlike the students of Buzhizhai and Changrongzhai, although the ladies of Pingshuozhai have to take the exam, the assessment is relatively simple and loose.
Just like those two schools have to take the exam for three days, the courses that are assessed every day are very full.
But Pingshuozhai is much easier here. Although the assessment is three days, only two subjects are tested every day.
Because of the exam, classes used to take place at four o’clock (eight o’clock) before, but now it’s changed to two at two o’clock (9:30), but Gu Wuyou still wakes up very early. On days like this exam, students In order to hurry up and study, I brought my own food to the college.
Gu Wuyou asked Bai Lu to prepare a food box for her, as well as some refreshing pills, mint dew, all stacked in it.
Hongshuang is a naive person. I still don’t know what happened to her and Li Qinyuan. I laughed at her after seeing her in such a battle: “Miss looks like she’s going to be the champion.”
Gu Wuyou was flipping through the food box to see if there was anything falling. How could she have any thoughts to return to her? After the inspection is complete, I was carrying my things and going out. When I thought of something, I stopped again, “Hey, my knee pads.”
I almost forgot.
As soon as she was about to go in and get it, Bailu had already opened the curtain and passed her a pair of knee pads she held in her hand, sighing: “I know you forgot.”
Gu Wuyou took a look and quickly took it over. She drove it out these few days because she was afraid of freezing. The general was frozen during the exam. The front was a layer of brocade embroidered with plum blossoms. It was a piece of red fox fur brought from Langya. The fur is silky and warm.
such.
It won’t be cold anymore.
She also chatted with the third brother yesterday, knowing that he almost died of freezing during the imperial examination. Although the general is only a general examination this time, it is not a place like a scientific examination without Zhizhai, but Gu Wuyou is still worried and worried about him. Frozen and hungry.
This is the first time to see a young general preparing for an exam, Gu Wuyou’s mood is indescribably excited.
Putting the knee pads in properly, she said to the two maids: “I’m going to the academy.” Before they could speak, she bent her eyebrows and walked out.
“You go slowly, don’t fall.”
Bai Lu reminded him, seeing her beckoning without looking back, and shook his head helplessly.
“Why does the young lady like to go to the academy so much now?” Hongshuang was a little puzzled, “I used to invite a husband at home, but the young lady refused to go.”
Bai Lu glanced at her and saw that she was still innocent, and shook her head.
“What’s wrong?” Hong Shuang was puzzled.
“…It’s okay.”
This silly boy, how does Miss likes to go to school? It’s not because there are people there. She doesn’t bother to talk to Miss anymore. Miss Left and Right is really happy now, compared to when she was with Zhao Shizi. When they were together, they would cry a few times every three days. Although this young man had a bad reputation, at least he never made the young lady cry.
No fasting.
The exam is about to take place. A group of people are like embracing Buddha’s feet. They all hold books and plan to memorize more before the exam. Even Fu Xian, who has never liked studying, also frowned and carried the books. Naturally, in the house. There are other voices too.
Some talked about what food was prepared at home this time, some talked about what their parents prepared for them, and some talked about where to have fun after the exam.
Young Lang Duo loves to compete, and even the food box he brought is better than the previous one.
After this, someone asked Li Qinyuan, “Qilang, what did your family give you?” The young man was also a naive man. He had been with Li Qinyuan a few times and felt that he was not a wicked person, so he loved to tell him from time to time. Let’s talk for a long time.
But obviously, he didn’t find this topic well.
Fu Xian, Jing Yubai and others who had originally endorsed the book stopped, especially Fu Xian. His sword eyebrows were furrowed and his thin lips were also pursed. The boy also reacted.
Li Qinyuan has a bad relationship with his family. During the previous exams, he didn’t seem to see him bring any food boxes.
Of course no one from the Li family gave it to him. Not to mention that his stepmother is used to doing things, or that his grandmother always loves him, but he feels annoyed and is too lazy to compare with these people. Every time, he orders in advance. So that they don’t have to send it.
Anyway, every time Fu Xian, they would bring more food.
The boy knew he had said the wrong thing, his face turned pale, and he said hurriedly, “I, I am not…”
Li Qinyuan didn’t put down the book in his hand, turned a page, raised his eyes and said with a faint smile: “It’s okay.”
“Ah good.”
The young man dared to speak more, turned his head quickly, and read the book.
Zhao Chengyou just came in. He didn’t say anything when he saw this picture. He would say a few words when he met Li Qinyuan in the academy, that is, Li Qinyuan would not respond to him, and he would greet him very politely, but he could call Li. After leaving home, he didn’t want to maintain this face with Li Qinyuan.
Usually, even if I see it, I pass by, there is nothing to say.
As soon as I was about to step forward, I heard a small servant coming over behind him and said to Li Qinyuan: “Young Master Li, your house brought you something here.”
Zhao Chengyou stepped under his feet, he seemed to have noticed in his heart, and he glanced at the food box.
Li Qinyuan, who was originally looking down at the book, raised his eyebrows in surprise when he heard this.
The author has something to say: Qi Lang: It was given by my daughter-in-law, but none of you.
Fu Xian:…
Jing Yubai:…
Qi Xu:…
