Chapter 57
The retreat is back to retreat, life is still going on as usual, there are many things to do besides studying martial arts and performing exercises every night.

Three meals a day and medicinal baths are indispensable.

Every day, I greet my old lady, drink tea and chat with her, and perform martial arts exercises to test my strengths with two masters, Dynasty and Tie Ling.

Some arty entertainment hobbies, such as piano, chess, books, painting, etc., Chen Yi never gave up.

It's just that I take some time to study and review according to my mood during the day.

On the other hand, he could push away trivial matters and human relations inside and outside the house, and what he couldn't push was just to show his face and go through the motions. After he had done his due courtesy, he left in a hurry.

All follow-up matters were left to Chen Hua, Chen Qiyao and other people in charge to worry about.

Time always flies when you're engrossed in something.

Before I knew it, it was several days.

Chen Yi put down the volume of The Legend of Swordsman of Zhongzhou in his hand, stretched his waist and stretched his body, got up and left the study.

Pushing open the door, a burst of coolness hits the face, and it has already started to rain lightly outside at some point, the breeze blows past, and a continuous drizzle that cannot be seen.

The courtyard is like a mist, which is quite artistic.

"Master!"

Zhou Feiyu, who was guarding the door under the eaves, trembled and raised his head to shout.

Chen Yi glanced at him and nodded in response.

In the past few days, he has been devoted to studying in the study, and rarely sees Zhou Feiyu.

This book boy is also 13 years old, and he has reached the age to practice martial arts.

In the past few days, it seems that he was arrested and trained by the martial masters in the mansion. He went out early and returned late every day.

Looking at the rain scene in front of him, Chen Yi felt all distracting thoughts in his heart, opened the lake-colored silk umbrella handed to him, and went straight to look for Chen Hua.

A few days ago, a list of casualties in the army was handed over to him, and I don't know how it is going now.

"I have sent people to visit, and there are indeed many people who are the only child in the family."

"Get rid of some good foundations. There are about [-] families who have lost the pillars of their families. Although they have received some money, food and pensions, they may not last long."

Chen Hua was lowering his head and softly reporting to Chen Yi.

Chen Yi groaned when he heard the words.

After thinking twice.

He still made up his mind and told Chen Hua: "Find a livelihood for them in the clan's property."

Chen Hua smiled wryly and wanted to dissuade him, and said, "My second young master, there are too many sufferings in this world, and they cannot be saved."

"Besides, this move is suspected of buying a name, and I'm afraid it will attract criticism from outsiders!"

Chen Yi frowned when he heard the words, and said displeasedly: "Although it is the trend of righteousness, this person was always brought by me, and now there are many casualties. If their family members are left to fend for themselves, what would I do?" Tolerate?"

Chen Hua was helpless, he didn't know how to dissuade him, he hesitated to speak.

"Ha, it's just to find a livelihood for them, and it's not about recruiting soldiers. Considering my family's reputation in Ninghe, it's nothing, right?"

Seeing his embarrassed look, Chen Yi smiled lightly and said.

Then he said contemptuously: "The big shots in the court, for the sake of big positions, they are all hard-hearted."

"Back then, all the barbarians entered the house, and there was no one to help. Now that the war has been decided, they will not focus on poor villages like ours."

Chen Hua could only sigh when he heard the words, and said helplessly:
"Having said that, it's just that the various properties in the city are already overcrowded. Why don't you give them some silver taels? What do you think, my lord?"

Chen Yi thought about it carefully, and finally felt that something was wrong.

He opened his mouth to deny: "I'm afraid these twenty families are all old, weak, sick and disabled. How can they keep their money? In case something happens, I will harm them instead."

"If it doesn't work, they will be secretly taken under the command of Wenshu Tower and scattered to various places!"

"This"

The two thought about it for a long time, but in the end Chen Hua still couldn't hold him back, so he could only fulfill his wish, get up and leave the house to arrange various matters.

After solving a major matter that was pressing on his mind, Chen Yi's thoughts came through.

In the continuous drizzle, he walked on the stone steps with a bamboo umbrella, and he was in a good mood for a while.

Clothes fluttered, and the scenery around him changed.

Before he knew it, he came to Mother Chen's yard and stopped for a moment
Well, it's all here, let's go in and say hello.

No one was notified at the moment, and he was admitted to the hospital by himself.

Several maids and mothers in the courtyard were chatting with Mother Chen.

Seeing him entering the room carelessly, she deliberately asked with a curious face: "Hey, this is really a rare visitor, why don't you read the scriptures in the study after a meal of eight bowls of Shura Knife?"

"Run here to see my old woman, what's the matter?"

"Mother is getting younger and younger these days, where does old age come from?"

Chen Yi smiled and stepped forward to help.

After a while, he told Chen's mother what happened just now.

After hearing this, Mother Chen said decisively without hesitation:
"Don't care about some rumors. If you want to do good deeds, then do it openly. Why do you need to cover up to make people laugh?"

"If your father is still alive, he must have said the same thing."

"Chen Hua is half a businessman after all. Although he is shrewd, he has no courage. He is really petty."

Chen Yi laughed dumbly when he heard the words, bowed his head and said in admiration: "The mother is magnificent, and the child admires it very much!"

For a while, he flattered her so much that Mother Chen couldn't help covering her mouth and sniggering.

After staying for a while, I got tired of hearing it.

Suddenly she began to ask: "You little monkey is full of sweet words, why don't you kidnap a girl and show it to your mother?"

Chen Yi thumped in his heart, his heart is not good, this is my old lady who wants to urge the marriage!
He hemmed and hawed in embarrassment and said perfunctorily: "This...the fate has not come yet, you can't force it, you can't force it!"

I just heard Chen's mother sneer: "I nest in that study every day, I don't know what I'm doing, how can I have the fate to come to the door by myself?"

"It's better to let Wei Niang find a good family for you!"

"Mother was joking, joking. Haha" Chen Yi laughed and avoided.

Then he hurriedly changed the subject again: "I don't know what's going on with big brother, it's really worrying."

"Sister-in-law is pregnant, and I don't know if there is a caring person around me to serve her."

Hearing this, Mother Chen seemed to be troubled.

"Good brother, I'm sorry!"

Seeing this, Chen Yi secretly apologized to Chen Meng in his heart.

On the surface, he suggested: "Brother is busy with official duties, so he must not be able to take care of him distractedly. I think it's better to send someone to bring my sister-in-law back so that she can raise her baby at home with peace of mind, so that she can be with her mother."

Chen's mother's eyes lit up when she heard the words, but she was a little worried, and said hesitantly: "The journey is exhausting, in case the tire gas moves."

But this is not a big problem, the road from Zhoucheng to Ninghe is extremely smooth, and there are no obstacles for cars and horses.

After thinking about it again and again, she finally decided to take He Yuming back to Chen's residence.

Immediately, someone called Tie Ling to explain the matter.

Tie Ling patted his chest and assured:
"Old lady, don't worry, Tiemou is very familiar with the way back and forth, and there will be no bumps and bumps. I will definitely bring the mistress back safely."
