The next day, Cheng Shiyuan woke up rubbing her waist, and as soon as she moved, she was grabbed by a slender and powerful arm.

"what……"

Cheng Shiyuan was startled, and leaned against Lu Xingzhi.

"how?"

Lu Xingzhi looked down at Cheng Shiyuan who was still in shock in his arms, and thought: I just hugged him, why did he react so much, could it be that he was still afraid of him?

Cheng Shiyuan pursed her lips and asked in a low voice, "Aren't you going to practice martial arts today?"

Lu Xingzhi planted a kiss on Cheng Shiyuan's forehead, his voice was hoarse and low, with a bit of laziness, "I won't go, get up earlier and go back with you to see your father-in-law and mother-in-law."

Cheng Shiyuan's face was a little red, she pushed Lu Xingzhi away and sat up, "Since that's the case, my husband should get up quickly, don't waste the time."

Seeing that Cheng Shiyuan was shy, Lu Xingzhi was worried that he would scare people with Meng Lang's actions, so he said nothing, got out of bed, put on his own clothes, and retreated to the outside room to wait for Cheng Shiyuan to clean up and put on makeup.

According to the rules of returning home, they were going back to their mother's house for breakfast, it was still early, and the general's mansion was not far from Cheng's mansion, so there was no rush.

After Cheng Shiyuan changed her clothes, the two of them informed General Zhenxi and his wife, and then left the General's Mansion and went straight to Cheng's Mansion.

On the carriage, the two looked at each other speechlessly.

Cheng Shiyuan actually had some indescribable feelings about Lu Xingzhi. She could feel that Lu Xingzhi didn't seem to hate her that much, and was even tolerant of her most of the time.

However, Cheng Shiyuan always felt that Lu Xingzhi looked too fierce, which prevented her from making trouble in front of him. Thinking of the rumors she heard earlier, she also tried to keep a quiet and dignified appearance in front of Lu Xingzhi.

Lu Xingzhi has been paying attention to Cheng Shiyuan's movements, and seeing that Cheng Shiyuan was almost trembling with nervousness, he stretched out his hand to hold her hand, and comforted him, "There's nothing to be nervous about, you're going back to your own home. , I am the one who should be nervous."

Once the conversation started, the atmosphere eased down.

"I know I want to go back to see my father and mother..."

Cheng Shiyuan said with some emotion: "It's just that now that I'm married as a wife, when I meet them again, I always feel that something is different. Looking back on the days back then, it always seems unreal."

Cheng Shiyuan always felt that the past was still vivid in her memory, she was still the little girl who acted like a baby in front of her father and mother, but in the blink of an eye, she was already the young lady of the general's mansion.

It wasn't until this moment that she understood what it means that time flies like an arrow, and the sun and the moon fly like a shuttle.

Lu Xing knew: "Don't think too much, if you miss them, you will often come back to live in the future."

Anyway, the two families are not far away. If he goes to war in the future, it would be better for Cheng Shiyuan to come back and live more, so as not to be homesick and secretly wipe tears.

Cheng Shiyuan said helplessly: "I'm already married, so how can I just say it? I know, I miss my father and mother, but if I don't know, I must say that the general's mansion treats me harshly." When the rumors spread, I'm afraid it will cause a lot of trouble, so let's forget it."

"Don't be afraid, I will support you in everything, no matter what others say." Lu Xingzhi said indifferently.

He had heard so many gossip and gossip that he never felt that there was anything to be concerned about.

It's just that some people have nothing to do, sitting together and chatting, or simply because they don't like others, so they arrange others and tarnish their reputations.

Cheng Shiyuan gave a soft "hmm" and stopped talking.

Not long after, the carriage staggered to a stop at the gate of the city mansion. The Taifu and his wife were already waiting at the gate, and the younger brothers and sisters were also standing at the gate, watching eagerly.

Lu Xingzhi had already prepared the things to go back to the door, and after getting off the carriage, he asked people to move into the mansion.

Seeing Taifu and Mrs. Taifu, Cheng Shiyuan felt her nose sore, she was clearly not wronged in the general's mansion, but she still couldn't help crying when she saw her family.

"Father, mother." Cheng Shiyuan saluted, and tears fell as soon as he opened his mouth.

Lu Xingzhi also bowed to the two of them. Seeing this, he raised his hand to wipe away the tears on her face, and said, "Don't cry, the autumn wind is cold, let's go in first and then talk."

"Yes, yes, go in quickly. On the day of great joy, what are you crying for?" Mrs. Taifu smiled and beckoned them to enter the house.

"You will arrive after breakfast is ready. At this time, there is no delay at all."

Lu Xing knew: "It's not too late to find out the time first."

Hearing this, the Grand Tutor just glanced at Lu Xingzhi, then turned his gaze on Cheng Shiyuan, and said, "Go ahead."

Cheng Shiyuan nodded, followed the Taifu and his wife with Lu Xingzhi, and entered the dining hall side by side.

My younger brother is twelve years old this year, and my younger sister is only nine years old, but they are both very sensible. Now that they found that Cheng Shiyuan and Lu Xingzhi had no time to talk to them, they ignored them and followed them to the dining hall.

When the four of them were seated, the two little guys saluted Cheng Shiyuan and Lu Xingzhi, and called "Sister, brother-in-law", which made Cheng Shiyuan teary again.

The Tai Tu couldn't help but said: "Today is the day to return home, why are you always crying, you are already married as a woman, why is it still the same as before?"

Cheng Shiyuan was reprimanded by her father and felt wronged, but she also knew that the sad things she said at this time were not pleasing or in compliance with the rules, so she didn't say anything.

When Lu Xingzhi saw it, he said, "Yuan'er is soft-tempered, maybe she's not used to living in the general's mansion, now that she sees you two, she feels a little homesick, and you are a family on both sides, so I don't care about those other rules. Just say something at home."

Although the words were rough, the truth was good, and the meaning of defending Cheng Shiyuan was also very obvious.

The Taifu and Madam looked at each other, feeling a little relieved, Madam Taifu then said: "Yuan'er, we have been spoiled by us all day, if there is something inappropriate in the general's mansion, you have to know what to do." You should be more forgiving."

Lu Xingzhi nodded, "Mother-in-law, what are you talking about, Yuan'er is my wife, husband and wife are of the same heart, we are one body, if anything happens, I will definitely face her and tolerate her, you don't have to worry about Yuan'er Wronged in the general's mansion."

Lu Xingzhi usually hates those who speak in a sloppy manner and can't understand things for a long time, and he is also most annoyed by this kind of scene of trying to say beautiful words to each other.

But at this moment, Lu Xingzhi answered patiently and carefully, for fear of saying something wrong, which would upset the Taifu and his wife.

Seeing that Lu Xingzhi's attitude was very good, and he didn't seem to be lying, the two of them felt a little relieved.

After all, Cheng Shiyuan cried as soon as he saw them, which really made them feel a little uncomfortable. They wondered if they had been wronged in the general's mansion, so they naturally thought of Lu Xingzhi's harsh treatment of Cheng Shiyuan.

After all, Lu Xingzhi is a general, and their daughter has been educated and reasonable since she was a child, and there is no open and secret fighting in the family. Her mind is very simple, and the daughter of a civil servant is inevitably weaker.

If it is true that they have suffered after they married, they would not dare to tell them when they come back, how can the two of them feel at ease?
This daughter was held in their hands and cared for since she was a child. Even if she is married now, she is still dear to her heart.

Mrs. Tai Fu ordered the banquet to open, and soon, plate after plate of food that Cheng Shiyuan was familiar with was brought down.

Looking at the food in front of her, Cheng Shiyuan was a little greedy, but she didn't feel so sad for a while.

Sensing Cheng Shiyuan's emotions, Lu Xingzhi secretly watched the food she ate, and remembered it in his heart, thinking that he should go back and tell his mother-in-law, and take some back with him when he returned to the door later.

Of course, it would be great if we could borrow a few cooks to go.

Lu Xingzhi saw that Cheng Shiyuan was eating very little these days, but he was anxious, but he didn't have anything to do, he was only worried about whether he would starve him to death.


After the meal, Lu Xingzhi and the Taifu went to the study to talk, and Cheng Shiyuan naturally followed the Taifu's wife back to the room.

Mrs. Taifu took Cheng Shiyuan's hand and asked, "Yuan'er, tell me the truth, how does he treat you?"

Knowing people, knowing face but not knowing heart, let alone such a big house as Lu Mansion.

Mrs. Taifu has heard some rumors that Lu Xingzhi likes quiet and virtuous women, and those daughter-in-law candidates selected by Mrs. General are also gentle and rude.

She was afraid that Cheng Shiyuan, a lively and active person, would be wronged if she married her.

Speaking of which, if the marriage was not bestowed by the Holy Majesty, no matter how good the Zhenxi General's Mansion is and how powerful it is, Mrs. Taifu would not want to accept it.

Cheng Shiyuan threw herself into Mrs. Taifu's arms, smelling the familiar scent of her mother, she felt in a daze that she was still the same child as before.

Mrs. Tai Fu reached out and pinched Cheng Shiyuan's cheek, pretending to be stern and said: "Don't act like a spoiled child to me here, just tell me whatever you ask, really, are you kidding me to death?"

"Mother... Didn't you see it just now? He is actually very kind to me. "

Cheng Shiyuan blushed a little shyly.

Mrs. Taifu continued to ask: "What about Mrs. General, how do you treat you, do you deliberately make things difficult for you?"

Cheng Shiyuan thought of the scene where the general's wife put her bridal tea on the table without a sip, and pursed her lips lightly.

"It's also very good."

Although she has tried her best to stabilize her voice so that Mrs. Taifu can't hear any clues, but after all, she is her daughter who was born in October and has been raised by her side. How can Mrs. Taifu fail to hear her daughter's words? Reluctantly mean?
Mrs. Tai Fu frowned: "Don't fool me, tell me honestly, did she make things difficult for you?"

"It's, it's nothing, it's just...it seems, maybe, it doesn't like me a little bit."

Cheng Shiyuan originally wanted to explain again, but she couldn't speak out the sharp eyes of Mrs. Shang Taifu's, so she could only truthfully say: "That day I went to pay my respects. During tea time, my mother-in-law didn't drink my tea, but the gift she gave me was very expensive, a pair of ruby ​​hair and a pair of Dongzhu hair."

"Hey, no matter who is marrying into the General's Mansion, she will still give a meeting gift. We didn't marry for her money. Why are you bringing this up?"

The more Mrs. Taifu thought about it, the more annoyed she became, "I don't think the general's wife is a mean person on weekdays. Why are you showing embarrassment to my daughter now? If it wasn't for the sake of the Holy Majesty, I wouldn't respond." As for this marriage, she treats her general's mansion as something sweet, everyone wants to take a bite? A vulgar warrior, how can he be worthy of my delicate girl!"

Looking at Cheng Shiyuan, Mrs. Taifu only felt distressed.

Originally, according to her and her husband's intention, they wanted to pick a champion for Cheng Shiyuan. In this case, the two of them would have something to talk about in the future, such as piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, wine, and flower tea.

But Cheng Shiyuan married a stinky soldier who only knows how to fight, what will happen in the rest of her life?

I just want to talk to him about those romantic things, but I don't know if that guy Lu Xingzhi can understand it.

But at this point, it is useless to say more, Mrs. Taifu can only sigh lightly, hoping that her daughter will live better in the future.
