Jiapingguan Chronicle

"Now that Lord Shen has figured it out, please ask Lord Shen to answer my previous question."

"General's previous question?"

"Yes!" Shen Cha tapped the table lightly, "Forget everything I said before, let's start with you saving Hui Niang. What comes after this moment is the most important. And this beginning is very problematic, you It is not the same as what Er Niang said. Er Niang said that you were seriously injured in that battle and it was Hui Niang who stayed up day and night to take care of you. However, you said that you took care of Hui Niang. These two statements are completely different. Master Shen, do you have anything to explain about this?"

"General, there is actually no difference. They are just two different expressions of the same thing." Shen Zhonghe smiled and said, "It is true that I was injured. It is not said to be very serious, but I still need to stay in bed for a while. In After hearing the news that I was injured, Er Niang actually ran to the military camp to see me. When she saw me, she burst into tears because she felt that my injury was very serious. She gave me the feeling that I It’s like he’s going to die soon.”

"Is it because she hasn't seen it before?"

"Yes!" Shen Zhonghe was dumbfounded. "She felt it was extremely serious. She even thought that I shouldn't join the army. If I'm not careful, I might lose my life." Seeing Shen Cha nod, he continued Said, "Later, she came to the camp several times and found that my condition had improved. She was relieved and told my family that I was injured, but I was almost healed."

"Did she ever meet Hui Niang during the few times she went to the camp?"

"This is not certain." Shen Zhonghe said firmly, "Liu Shuai has always been very strict in running the army. If I hadn't been injured, even Er Niang wouldn't be able to move around freely in the military camp. Not to mention those who were killed by us. The rescued people have been arranged and have special people to take care of them. Those who have special doctors to take care of them have no need of ours. However, I promised Huiniang's elders to take care of her more. Look after her more frequently before going to the place where she is placed."

"So, it's true that love lasts for a long time, right?"

"Yes, it is true that love lasts for a long time. I am not talking nonsense about this. But taking care of me day and night is actually a fiction and does not exist." Shen Zhonghe touched his nose in embarrassment, "How is it possible that men and women are different? Taking care of her day and night? If this is true, if someone spreads the word, the girl's reputation will be ruined. "

"Has a bad reputation? What did Er Niang say?" Shen Cha frowned slightly, "She lied?"

"That's not the case. Er Niang and I revealed a little bit about this, and it wasn't so straightforward."

"Then why is that?"

"Because I have my own selfish motives. I like Hui Niang. Since we are in love, we must be together. Therefore, I want to let Er Niang reveal some news to her family." Shen Zhonghe smiled sheepishly Laughing, "I just want them to know that I have met someone I like and want to spend the rest of my life with this person. I hope they can agree to break off the engagement."

"Is that so?" Shen Cha thought for a while, "Do you want Er Niang to tell the family that you and Hui Niang have ruined the girl's reputation by getting along day and night, so you have no choice but to marry her?" no?"

"Yes!" Shen Zhonghe smiled bitterly, "That's what I meant at the time, but it didn't seem to be of any use, and even all the agencies didn't get what I wanted. Not only that, they...I mean people at home, after knowing that someone in my family appeared beside me. After meeting a strange girl, she pressed me even harder to get married and firmly refused to break off the engagement." "They don't care that you see each other day and night?"

"I don't care at all. Let alone a Hui Niang, even ten or eight people will not waver."

"Did your family members say this themselves?"

"Aunt Liang came to the military camp in person and told me this. She said it was my grandfather's intention and hoped that I would not use this method to achieve my own goals. Er Niang's grandfather also asked Er Niang to bring me a message to warn her. I don't want to have my own way, and don't ruin the friendship between the two families because of me." Shen Zhonghe spread his hands, "Actually, the elders in this world have never changed. This is true from generation to generation. They dare not go to the military camp to cause trouble, for fear of being caught. Get up, so I just forced Er Niang to threaten me."

"You compromised."

"I really want to fight, but how can my little arms twist my thighs? They will use blood and kinship to threaten and force them, and they will even use their own bodies as bargaining chips. They will warn the younger generation not to be cunning or use tricks. , but they are used to using these themselves.”

"There's nothing hard to understand about this. It's the same as a century-old daughter-in-law becoming a mother-in-law. They managed to become an elder from a junior, and finally they were able to use tricks. How could they let it go?" Jin Miaomiao asked. Eyebrow, smiled, "right?"

"What this adult said is right. That's the truth." Shen Zhonghe sighed softly and said, "I'm not afraid of you kids laughing at me. At that time, I almost collapsed and really wanted to express my anger. I yelled at them, I am not their puppet, and Er Niang cannot be at their mercy. Our marriage is not a tool for them to return favors. We are all living people with our own feelings and our own. Whether it’s joy, anger or joy, we know what things and people we want, we have brains!”

"But you didn't shout."

"Yes, I backed down because at that time, my grandfather was in very poor health. When he was young, he went to sea frequently, and he did not have a good rest when he was injured. Therefore, he suffered from a lot of diseases. These old diseases recurred one after another. My grandfather was old and couldn't bear it anymore. He saw him getting weaker and thinner day by day. His waking hours became less and less and he spent more and more time sleeping. Even the most beautiful person in the military camp could not bear it. The good doctors have already warned us that we need to start preparing for the funeral, as my grandfather only has a few days left."

"At times like this, what you're most afraid of is being stimulated, right?"

"Yes." Shen Zhonghe sighed softly, "So, in such a situation, I can't say anything to irritate or hurt my grandfather. Although I feel very sad, there is nothing I can do about it. , we can only accept our fate.”

"If you had said it, you would be extremely regretful now, and there would be nothing you can do to make up for it."

"Yes, as I said before, if we really risk everything to marry Hui Niang, our lives may not be really good." Shen Zhonghe smiled bitterly, "This is fate, right?"
