auspicious time has come

Chapter 147
"Perhaps... it was not specifically mentioned." Xiao Mu said.

"That doesn't mean I'm not allowed to go?"

"Mother--"

Mrs. Xiao raised her eyebrows: "Why, the wings are hardened. Could it be that the mother is too vulgar to be on the stage, and she doesn't want to bring her with her when she goes to the capital to see the teacher?"

"How could it be?" Xiao Mu said, "It's just a long journey here, the boat and the car are tiring—"

Mrs. Xiao interrupted him: "You still don't know the bones of my mother? I can't even get a cold all year round!"

Heng Yu hurriedly reminded: "Auntie, you can't say that."

This is a kind of metaphysics!

Mrs. Xiao came to a sudden: "Yes, yes... a slip of the tongue, a slip of the tongue."

As he spoke, he glared at Xiao Mu again: "I haven't been out of this bitterly cold Northland for many years, I just nestled in this small Dingbeihou Mansion, and now I finally have the opportunity to go to the capital. Refuse to agree to anything?"

Xiao Mu was speechless for a moment.

Before coming here, he thought about his mother's many reactions, but he never thought of scolding and not scolding, so he wanted to follow him to Beijing with this attitude.

And this kind of reaction is far more heartwarming than scolding him.

"Aheng, you come to judge!" Mrs. Xiao looked at Hengyu.

Hengyu was quite troubled, and said with a smile on her face: "Auntie, the world is so big, good places to go are not only in the capital, if Auntie wants to go out for a walk, I have a miscellaneous notes from various places, in which there are many good mountains and good places written by famous poets and scholars. Water is far more worth visiting than the capital—”

"Aheng..." Mrs. Xiao looked at the girl, her eyes turned red all of a sudden, "Do you even despise your aunt?"

Heng Yu immediately waved his hand: "Auntie misunderstood, this junior has absolutely no intention of—"

"No such intention, that is the meaning of agreeing to let me go with you, right?" Mrs. Xiao asked expectantly with her handkerchief to hold back the tears that did not exist in the corners of her eyes.

Heng Yu showed the most difficult smile in his life, and looked at Xiao Mu from the corner of his eye.

I am sorry.

She really can't help with this...

"It doesn't matter if you don't agree." Mrs. Xiao seemed to have figured out something suddenly, and she squinted at Xiao Mu: "I have feet and legs myself, can I beg you? At worst, you go to yours, and I go to mine." gone."

Xiao Mu was completely silent.

Now that the words have come to this point, his so-called promise or disapproval is completely meaningless.

He could only say: "There are still some days, mother may think about it again."

As for the stakes in it, my mother would not be ignorant. If he talked too much, it would have the opposite effect. It would only make my mother feel that this trip was particularly difficult and dangerous, and she would become more determined to go with him.

"You don't need to tell me, I will think about it—" Mrs. Xiao said: "Think about what to bring along the way."

Xiao Mu was about to say more, but she had already thrown off the veil and chased people away: "Okay, I have to get someone to prepare, so I won't keep you for dinner."

After driving the two children away, Mrs. Xiao called her close wife to go to the inner room, and explained all the preparations.

"Ma'am..." The woman in charge stopped talking for a long time before saying, "Are you really going to the capital?"

As the sky got darker, Mrs. Xiao stood by the candlestick and lit a candle: "Otherwise, why would I ask you to prepare these?"

"Karang-jun, he..."

"You don't need to tell me, I don't know what my own son thinks." Mrs. Xiao said: "It is quite dangerous to enter the capital this time, and the people in the capital must be uneasy and kind... He still wants to go knowing that, It can be seen that he has made up his mind, instead of cursing and stopping him, I should think about how to help him."

The child is going home, how can she stop her from going home.

"But you went to the capital, how can you compare to staying in the north to make Hou Ye feel at ease?"

"That way he is at ease, but how can I be at ease?" Mrs. Xiao said: "I understand his temperament, and what he is going to do here may be more than one level... If he wants to seek peace in the open, then I will go with him to show his sincerity. In the eyes of those people, I, a mother, is Jingshi's weakness, but there are some things that are easier for a woman who is a weakness to get in touch with... They treat me as useless The ignorant woman is an opportunity for us, and we don't know who will bite whom."

While she was talking, she picked up the scissors and cut off a piece of wick left over from last night.

The woman in charge sighed lightly: "Since Madam knows that she is weak, isn't she afraid of being taken hostage and used to coerce the gentleman?"

"You recognized me on the first day." Mrs. Xiao glanced at her: "As a person, I can never do stupid things that drag others down, let alone my own son."

"What do you mean..." The mother-in-law stared dryly for a moment: "If you have such thoughts, I really can't let you go!"

"It doesn't count if you say it. My own affairs, I have to say it myself." Mrs. Xiao smiled and said: "And you should be able to understand. At our age, we can't care so much anymore. Thinking about where the child is going, then we will go there."

The mother-in-law's eyes were sour, and she couldn't listen anymore.

"Furthermore, I have to meet my future in-laws!" Mrs. Xiao suddenly put on a disgusted expression: "If I don't go, it will depend on that brat, when can I marry a wife? Don't forget, Jingshi There's another Shaoyan! Then we all have to cheer up and face the enemy!"

The sourness in the mother-in-law's eyes disappeared, and she couldn't cry anymore.

……

In the next few days, Heng Yu almost failed to see Xiao Mu again.

He discussed matters with Yan Junshi and others all day long, and the door of the outer study was closed from morning till night.

In the next few days, he went to the military camp in person and stayed in the military camp until the eve of his departure before returning home.

It was almost late at night when I came back, so I, Yan Junshi and Yin Hai, the three of them randomly set up a table with food and wine to satisfy their hunger.

"Toast the general, it's time to practice." Yan Jun raised his glass.

"Thank you, Uncle Yan." Xiao Mu changed back to the address he hadn't called for a long time, and after finishing the wine in the cup, he took out something from his bosom and handed it over.

Junjun Yan was slightly startled: "General, this..."

"When I go to the capital, Uncle Yan will take care of all affairs in the army, and Uncle Yan will also take care of this soldier talisman. If necessary, he can order the army to respond."

Hearing this, and thinking about the worst result hidden behind it, Military Division Yan stared at the soldier talisman, and after a while, he finally took it with both hands.

"The subordinates will live up to the general's entrustment, and temporarily defend the northern border for the general. The general is in the capital, but he can act with peace of mind, and don't ask for certain fulfillment—" Military Division Yan looked at Xiao Mu, and said: "I only hope that the general will return safely. "

Xiao Mu poured the wine for him: "With Uncle Yan's good words, I will also respect Uncle Yan."

Yin Hai drank half a pot of wine, shook his head and smiled when he heard the words: "Military commanders don't have to worry too much, the general will return safely, and maybe he will return with a beautiful woman at that time, and our general's wife will also have a wife." ..."

"Not necessarily." Yan Junjun also shook his head: "What if the Ji family stays behind? Is my thinking limited?"

Yin Hai slapped his forehead with the hand holding the prayer beads: "Ah, I forgot the most important thing!"

Listening to the two subordinates making fun of him, Xiao Mu didn't see any displeasure or discomfort, and even smiled while holding his wine glass.

The three of them smiled and drank together.

"Speaking of which, my subordinates have always had a question about Master Ji—"

Seeing Xiao Mu motioning him to continue, Master Yan said in a chatty tone: "I still remember that nine years ago, shortly after the general first arrived in the Northland, he asked his subordinates to secretly inquire about the whereabouts of a little girl, saying that she had been in the She met her in a ruined temple outside Youzhou City. Although they met by chance, they were worried about her safety, and guessed that she might be a descendant of Mr. Qinghan... After that, maybe it was a process of investigation Something went wrong, and the news I got was that the little girl had unfortunately passed away..."

"That little girl back then, is Keguo really the painter Ji?" Junjun Yan asked, "Has the general confirmed this?"

When mentioning this old matter, Xiao Mu's voice sounded a little more gentle, and he nodded with a smile in his eyes: "It's her."

Yan Junshi smiled and stroked his beard upon hearing this.

Judging from the tone of voice, it seems that the two have already met each other - the meeting he refers to is the meeting between the Ji family girl and the Shi family man.

The general now finally has someone who can entrust his secrets.

Yin Hai's eyes were filled with the light of gossip: "General and Master Ji, there was such a past?"

He let out a soft hiss: "According to this, could it be that as early as nine years ago, the general fell in love with Painter Ji at first sight and buried his feelings for him... The reunion in Yingzhou this time is destined to meet again... Continuing the frontier?"

Xiao Mu twitched his lips unbearably: "This Marquis is a human being, not a beast."

"Where do you start?" Yin Hai was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized: "It's a sin, I'm really too drunk, and I'm not pleasant to say!"

Nine years ago, Painter Ji was only nine years old, right?
If the general really thought about it at that time, wouldn't he be a beast!
Jokes are jokes, this kind of thing can't be used as a joke——

Yin Hai thought about it seriously, and changed his words: "At that time, the general had a heart of compassion and help to Painter Ji, but judging from the temperament of Painter Ji today, at that time, General Yu must have given him as well... This is not a bad idea. It's not a fateful encounter."

Compared to Wang Jingyong and Da Zhu's ignorance, he has a vague knowledge of the general's past.

The general nine years ago, under such circumstances...

Or it was that compassion that preserved the goodwill in the general's heart, and this preservation has been preserved to this day.

When some accidents happen, at the critical moment of the transformation of the mind, what you encounter, what you get, and what you give are all crucial-this is the so-called chance.

Even though his mouth was broken like Yin Hai, Xiao Mu did not avoid this topic at this moment, and said seriously: "She has given me a lot, whether it was nine years ago or this reunion."

"That's right." Yin Hai sighed: "It's not justified if you don't promise it with your body, right?"

"..." Xiao Mu finally stopped talking, glanced at him, and said, "What about you? Do you really want to go to the capital with me?"

"Why don't you go?" Yin Hai said with a smile: "Master ordered me to go down the mountain to help the nobles save the world, so I exchanged the Zen staff for a sword, and followed the general all the way to today... The general put down the rebellion of King Jin and conquered the six cities. War without me?"

Xiao Mu smiled at the corner of his mouth: "Since I met you, I can be called smooth——"

"So, when you go to the capital, how can the general be without me, the mascot bestowed by the Buddha?"

"I would like to thank you for your good intentions." Xiao Mu raised the wine cup to Yinhai.

Yin Hai smiled and drank with him.

Although he was going to leave for Beijing tomorrow, the atmosphere at this moment was relaxed, and there was a rare calmness in the past.

In such an atmosphere, it was rare for Xiao Mu to take the initiative to speak: "You just leave, then the girl from the Pei family—"

　Thank you for your rewards and monthly tickets. It’s the end of the month. May I ask for a monthly ticket?thank you all!
