Chapter 62 The Qian Family
It seemed that the word safety gave Gongsun Cheng some comfort, and Gongsun Yan coaxed him to eat some meat soup.

There were no outsiders in the room, so Gongsun Yan gave up sitting on his knees. The rules were all for others to see, so he could do whatever he felt comfortable with when no one was around.

Gongsun Cheng took two mouthfuls of rice with meat soup and then frowned and refused to eat any more.

Gongsun Yan picked up Gongsun Cheng's soothing decoction on the desk, hesitated for a moment, blew it to cool it, and taught him to drink it in one gulp.

Gongsun Cheng always listened to his sister's words and drank all the medicine in the medicine bowl in one go. It was so painful that he could only stick out his tongue.

Gongsun Yan took out the fruit juice gum he had prepared and stuffed it into his mouth.

Seeing how his eyes sparkled instantly, she kissed his forehead affectionately.

After taking care of Gongsun Cheng and taking medicine, Gongsun Yan called Ah Qing and Alan to clean up the desk in the room.

Yesterday, Gongsunda's wife came to take care of him in person, and there was no need to be polite. Gongsun Cheng's health was the most important thing, so he didn't have to attend any banquets.

Although Gongsun Da and Gongsun Zan were brothers, Gongsun Da was actually recommended by Gongsun Zan as the captain. In the Han Dynasty, recommendation and promotion were very important, so even though he was a junior, Gongsun Da did not act like an elder.

I stayed in my wife's room last night and kept telling her over and over again without feeling relieved.

In the morning, he put on casual clothes under the service of his wife. He took his wife's hand and told her again that she must not act like an elder and neglect the Gongsun brothers because of Gongsun Zan's defeat.

After being told like this, even though he felt that the arrangements were very well done, seeing how much Gongsunda attached great importance to it, Qian still didn't dare to neglect it.

Farewell to Gongsun Da at the door, she went to open the dowry box and found two plates of cloth and jewelry. She knew that Gongsun Yan and others had broken out and wanted to give some gold cakes and goods, but she was worried that Gongsun Yan would think too much, so she gritted her teeth and took out three pieces of jewelry. Shu Brocade.

These Shu brocades all come from the south and have always been treasures equivalent to gold. There is also a saying that every inch of gold is worth every inch of brocade.

Today, in Xiabandang, the north-south trade routes are almost cut off, so the value of brocades with bright and gorgeous colors is even more precious in the north.

Although she was reluctant to give up, Mrs. Qian still asked her servant to hold it in a red lacquer tray, and walked through the school captain's mansion towards the yard of Gongsun Yan's sister and brother.

As soon as he arrived at the door, he saw a majestic armored soldier waiting at the courtyard gate with a sword. It was Xia Houlan.

When Zhao Yun left, he ordered him to temporarily take over the responsibility of guard. After a brief rest, Xia Houlan came to be the doorkeeper early in the morning.

Both Zhao Yun and Xia Houlan have a good appearance. Unlike Zhao Yun's Shen Yi, who is reliable, Xia Houlan is clearer.

She had washed herself well last night, shortened her unruly beard, and was of outstanding height. At this time, she stood up with a knife in her hand, which made several maids behind Qian blush with embarrassment and stare at her.

"Madam." When Xia Houlan saw Qian coming from a distance, she bowed her hands and opened the door behind her.

"Thank you Xiahou Sima." Qian had been here yesterday and knew Xiahoulan's surname and military position. After all, he was handsome and mighty, so he was quite impressed by him.

Passing by Xia Houlan, Qian walked into Gongsun Yan's courtyard.

As early as when Qian deliberately slowed down his pace to be polite to Xia Houlan, a servant girl went in to inform Gongsun Yan.

At this time, Qian had just walked two steps across the courtyard gate when she saw Gongsun Yan coming out to greet her.

Qian's eyes lit up when he saw the young girl coming out.

The girl was pretty and filial, she took off her black army coat that looked like a sack and took a refreshing hot bath.

The dust of traveling all the way has faded away. The girl with extremely white skin is wrapped in the large plain clothes prepared by Qian. Her black hair is like ink. Just standing there is a beautiful scenery that makes people smile unconsciously.

Qian was past the age of jealousy. Before Gongsun Yan could approach to greet her, he helped her up, held her plain white hands in his palms, and patted her gently: "You're welcome, Ayan. It's cold outside. We Go in and talk.”

Holding the girl's slender and tender fingertips in his hand, Qian couldn't help but sigh.

Gongsun Yan's father, Gongsun Zan, was a handsome man with a loud voice, and his biological mother, Hou, was also a famous beauty in the Hou family of Zhuo County. She inherited the advantages of both parents.It’s a pity that these changes happened...

Thinking of this, the thought that flashed through Qian's mind when she first saw Gongsun Yan yesterday resurfaced.

She heard that Gongsun Zan's sworn brother Le Hedang had come to Gongsun Yan and Ji's house to ask for his second son's hand in marriage.

But I don’t know whether Gongsun Zan was happy to be a concubine or had other plans. He refused the marriage on the grounds that he loved his youngest daughter and wanted to stay for a few more years.

From then on until Gongsun Zan's defeat, it seems that Gongsun Yan was never heard of having any relatives.

Her eldest brother's eldest son is also approaching [-] this year. In the past, the Qian family could not reach the threshold of Gongsun Zan's house even if they stepped on a ladder.

But now that Gongsun Zan has been defeated, Gongsun Yan is just the daughter of a concubine in Gongsun's family, but he can still compete.

Gongsun Zan left a manor and fertile land across several villages to the west of Lingzhi, and Gongsun Yan's dowry would not be thin.

What does it mean to wait for three years of filial piety for such a beautiful and rich girl?

As for whether Gongsun Yan's innocence would be damaged due to the military disaster, it was not under Qian's consideration.

Regardless of social customs or secularity, the concept of women's integrity in the Han Dynasty was weak. There was no controversy about the remarriage of men and women. There was no particular concern about human relations and the restrictions between the sexes were relatively loose.

Thinking of going back, she wrote a letter to her brother. The smile on Qian's face became more loving, and she pulled Gongsun Yan into the warm room.

Although she didn't know that Qian had already imagined what a beautiful child Gongsun Yan could give her nephew, Gongsun Yan only felt that Qian's smile was so warm that she couldn't resist it.

He took his hand out of her palm and hugged Gongsun Cheng to greet her.

"Hello, aunt." Gongsun Cheng, who had always been obedient, was timid and hid in Gongsun Yan's arms.

Like Gongsun Yan, he couldn't cope with Qian's familiarity.

"I suffered a little fright, please forgive me, aunt." Gongsun Yan said with an apologetic smile.

"Where is it?" Qian knew that Gongsun Cheng was still young and sick, so he didn't care too much about it, but felt very pity for Gongsun Cheng.

Gongsun Da was dark and strong, and Qian's two daughters and two sons were unlucky enough to have the same looks as their father. Qian was very fond of a child like Gongsun Cheng, who had tender, white breasts.

He wanted to hug him, but Gongsun Cheng refused.

Seeing his languid expression, Gongsun Yan knew that the concoction he drank in the morning had taken effect, so Gongsun Yan hurriedly took care of him before going to bed.

Qian waited patiently for Gongsunyan to put Gongsuncheng to sleep, and then took her to greet her for a long time.

Gongsun Yan also smiled and asked questions, while pretending to casually ask about the situation of Lingzhi Gongsun's family.

Qian seemed to be aware of it, but she didn't care. She just thought it was Gongsun Yan who was worried about the future and told everything she knew and could say.

Ah Qing brought hot honey water, and the two sat and chatted for a long time. It was only when Gongsunyan's legs changed from numbness to tingling to severe pain that he could hardly hold on to his smile, and then they left.

Seeing Gongsun Yan stand up to see her off, but his feet stooped, Qian couldn't help but laugh. He was not even used to sitting upright. When Gongsun Zan and his wife were alive, they loved their little daughter.

Seeing that she was trying to be tough and wanted to send it off, Qian didn't say anything and just told her not to be polite and to go on her own.

Gongsun Yan was left blushing.
