Warrior in Turbulent Han Dynasty

Chapter two hundred and eighty-eighth

In Youshi, the loud sound of bells and drums on the city tower can be heard throughout the city. In the quiet Guofu Garden, the curved wooden bridge at the exit of the back garden looks like an artificial rainbow in the afterglow of the setting sun. The surface of the lake in the garden is sparkling, with an orange luster.

This place is separated by a wall, and the atmosphere outside is completely different, without the hustle and bustle of the market, as if isolated from the world. Mrs. Zheng was away, and Guo Shao couldn't see anyone during the day. The family was dominated by Yulian and Yang.

"Do you think Ah Lang will come back tonight?" Yang asked Yulian, who was helping her, while packing up the pipa and music scores.

Yulian murmured: "Never mind him, if he doesn't come back, he will send someone to say hello. The two of us eat alone...wake up that little Taoist priest who sleeps all day long to eat together."

"I eat every day, can you think of something else?" Yang covered her mouth and smiled.

Yulian seemed to have thought of something, blushed and said, "What can you think of?"

Yang Shi leaned over, covered her mouth with her hand, and said quietly: "If Ah Lang doesn't come back, I'll go to your room at night."

Yulian's face turned even redder, and she spat: "If you say that again, I'm going to get angry!"

Yang was not angry either, and said kindly: "The man won't care about such things. Last time I asked you to serve A Lang together. Do you think he cares? If we don't enjoy ourselves in time, we can't bear to suffer later."

"Why does my sister have such an idea, isn't it good to have a safe and stable life now?" Yulian frowned.

Yang shook her head and sighed, and said: "Remember what I told you before? At that time, if you wanted to be diligent and thrifty to manage your family, I will tell you that what A Lang lacked in his position was not money, but how to maintain power. Am I right?

Was it useful for you to be so frugal before? Think about it, more than a month ago, we both had to hide in another house. In that case, no matter how much money the Guo family had accumulated, it would be useless. If A Lang failed in one step, Wan Guan's family wealth would be wiped out overnight. "

Yulian was moved by the words, what Yang said was indeed reasonable. Yulian is now learning to dress well and eat well, and is too lazy to save money, but sometimes she still feels uncomfortable wasting money.

Now that Yang's persuasion is so persuasive, Yulian can also listen to it. She thinks that she can't even have children, so it seems right to have fun in time...

She sighed and said, "I really don't want to make a fuss. If one day I can't rely on A Lang, I will follow him, so as not to live and suffer... I don't want to go back to the place I used to be."

"A Lang is also enjoying himself in time." Yang persuaded, "Chen Jiali is probably on good terms with him, maybe her cousin Zhou Xian has been acquired."

"Zhou Xian?" Yu Lian frowned,

Yang said: "The wife of Li Yu, Emperor of the Southern Tang Dynasty, I had correspondence with her before."

Yulian blushed and whispered: "But what you said...we both look the same, is that interesting?"

Yang put her soft red lips against Yulian's ears, and said softly, "It's more interesting than doing it yourself."

"Bah bah!" Yulian gave her a light push. Yang covered her mouth and smiled coquettishly, and stared at Yulian for a while: "You are so beautiful, as white as a water lotus, and the name Yulian is apt."

At this moment, Dong Sanniang walked to the door and said, "Ah Lang is back."

After listening to this, Yang was amused, and whispered to Yulian: "But Ah Lang is more interesting, he just doesn't let go, we have to teach him."

...The two hurriedly went to Guo Shao's living room with Dong Sanniang, and the hall was right after entering the door. Guo Shao didn't wear armor, just sat there drinking tea, waiting for the food to be served. When he saw the three women, he said, "San Niang, let's have dinner together."

"Slaves dare not sit with the master." Sanniang said with her head lowered.

After hearing this, Yang glanced at Dong Sanniang calmly. This little girl is fourteen years old, her breasts have obviously protruded, and she has been raised for nothing after several years in the Guo Mansion. But Dong Sanniang got extra treatment from Guo Shao, mainly because her second brother... the hero who killed Zhao Sanlang, I heard that now Guo Shao takes him with him wherever he goes.

Guo Shao said softly: "Don't be afraid. It's been a few years since you came to Tokyo from Hedong. How have I ever beaten and scolded you? Besides, it's not the first time you've sat at the same table with me for dinner."

San Niang said nothing.

Guo Shao turned his head and looked over again: "Yulian, Yue'e, I had some business a few days ago, so I came back a little late."

When Yang heard this, he almost laughed out loud. Are you meeting Widow Chen and Li Yu's wife on official business? But what she was laughing at was not Guo Shao's lying, he was the most powerful person in Tokyo, what kind of lies did he lie in front of his concubine?

However, Yang thinks that Guo Shao is the most pleasing. In the past, Yang mainly wanted to repay her kindness, but now she thinks that repaying her kindness is secondary, and she is willing to stay by Guo Shao's side without any kindness.

At this time, a stout black woman and a young woman came to serve meals, and San Niang hurried to help. Guo Shao frowned and said, "Where is Qingxu?"

Yang smiled and said, "Still sleeping."

"When will she wake up, are people stupid if they don't sleep?" Guo Shao said, "Yue'e will get her up."

Not long after, Yang brought over the sleepy-eyed girl with single eyelids and a delicate face. Qingxu heard that she would still get up after dinner...but her room was really messy, and she never folded the quilt.

"These dishes again!" Qingxu complained, "Can't we change it?"

Yulian said softly: "Tomorrow I will cook."

Guo Shao sighed and said, "Maybe it's a good thing for a young girl to not know what it means to be sad."

Yang thought of the mutiny more than a month ago, when Qingxu was staying at the mansion, if the situation was not right at that time, some rebels rushed into the mansion, Qingxu was still sleeping soundly and sweetly on the bed, what a ridiculous scene.

Qingxu said: "I helped you save the queen's life, the grace of saving life is as great as heaven. With this matter alone, you have to eat and drink to support me, and I don't want your money, isn't it too much?"

"That's all, I'm raising you, and you can do whatever you like." Guo Shao said.

Qingxu asked again: "When will you and Jingniang go to the palace to meet the queen?"

Guo Shao said: "She is already the queen mother!"

After hearing this, Qingxu was stunned, and counted with his fingers: "One day in the sky, one year on the earth. The world has changed!" Yang couldn't hold back anymore, covered her mouth and buried her head in a smile for a while.

After dinner, Yulian served tea. Guo Shao sat in front of the table, took out a small book, and took out a book from the Privy Council Notes from the cabinet, and asked someone to grind ink to write and draw there.

Yang reminded from the side: "Ah Lang came back early today, let's rest early."

Guo Shao didn't turn his head back and said: "Wait for me on the bed after washing. Don't beg for mercy for a while."

Yang's face turned red: "I'm a little weak, and there's sister Yulian... I've already asked someone to boil the water, please ask Alang to take a bath and change clothes."

Guo Shao said: "The weather is getting cold now, I just washed it last night, so I won't wash it anymore."

"Alang, take a bath, I will serve you in another way later." Yang said softly.

Guo Shao turned to look at her, and Yang gently touched her lips with her slender nails painted with exquisite nail polish. Sure enough, Guo Shao's face was slightly red... Yang thought, just hinting at the bad guys will understand. Could it be that Chen Jiali, who pretends to be elegant, has already taught A Lang a lesson?

Yang smiled and said: "I also sent someone to buy some medicinal materials, soaking in water can nourish the body."

... Guo Shao put away his things and waited at the back door to prepare hot water. Looking at the night view of the garden outside, he suddenly felt that this garden was indeed a good place to be lazy. Fu Yanqing must be a person who knows how to enjoy himself, so he built such a house in a small area.

But for some reason, he always felt that there was something missing...it was Fu Ermei. So I always feel a little empty.

There was no Second Sister Fu here before, and Second Sister Fu has only been here for a few months. But once she belonged here, Guo Shao was not used to it when she was gone, and no matter how many women he had, he couldn't offset his feelings.

He turned around and thought, Yulian and Yang are both poor people caused by the war, and they happened to meet to allow them to live a stable life, so there is nothing to support... But how he provoked Zhou Xian, and Li Xiaoniang made him very entangled. After thinking about it, I couldn't even think of a reason for myself.

In fact, he felt that Fu Jinzhan and Fu Ermei were enough.

Guo Shao immediately thought about it. The reorganization of the Forbidden Army will not be completed for a while, because the 20,000 people in the left wing of the Long Jie Army have not yet returned to Tokyo; but as long as the left wing of the Hu Jie Army is successfully integrated into the Huben Army and the first stage of reorganization is completed, they will be able to withdraw.

At this time, Dong Sanniang came in with a bucket of hot water, and Guo Shao hurriedly said, "What is the name of that strong woman? Tell her to do this kind of work with ease."

"It's okay." Dong Sanniang said very little, and she often gave Guo Shao a feeling of inferiority.

Guo Shaodao: "Another day I will tell your second brother to accept you as a righteous sister. When you grow up a few years later, I will find you a good family and pay for you to prepare a generous dowry."

"Bang!" Suddenly a bucket of water fell to the ground.

"I'm sorry, Ah Lang, I..." Sanniang hurriedly lay down on the ground and used her arms to cover the water on the ground, but how could the water hold it? I can only watch a large bucket of water wet the floor.

Guo Shao heard her voice choked up, and said, "It's okay, just blow it dry with the door open. Don't cry, I won't blame you... Is the water very hot?" He hurriedly stepped forward to touch it with his hand, and felt it was lukewarm water.

Dong Sanniang sobbed: "Does Alang hate me very much and want to send me away early?"

Guo Shao: "..."

He mused: "The little girl will grow up, and she will marry someone with her own family. She has a high status and a large dowry, and she can choose someone who is good in all aspects... You are my righteous sister, even if you are a family of officials, you are happy and willing to marry. Isn't it a good thing?"

"I think this place is very good, and Alang is very good. I feel happy when I see Alang come back every day..." Dong Sanniang said, "I'm not greedy. No matter how nice other people's homes are, I don't know what they will do to me."
