The general's wife through time

Chapter 177 A long conversation
After entering the house, Qin Huangyuan briefly talked to Xue Tang about the situation outside, and at the same time glanced at the furnishings in front of him.

It is exactly the same as the one next door, with a fire pit and simple tables and chairs, especially like a country villager's home.

Judging from the traces of use of teacups and other utensils on the table, Qin Shuoyuan determined that this was Xue Tang's lounge, and that Xue Tang should have come often before, perhaps to supervise the construction.

Qin Huangyuan's eyes flashed. Unexpectedly, Xue Tang still has such a simple style.

His eyes moved downward, finally landing on a book on the table.

"aquaculture"?
Knowing that he brought back the black butterfly shell, is he planning to raise it himself?
No matter how much I value the gift he gave me, it won’t be so...

Noticing Qin Huangyuan's scrutinizing gaze, Xue Tang explained lightly: "The houses in the villa are all built like this, mainly to facilitate the Qin family troops stationed at the lighthouse and the people who guard the tombs and raise fish. In case of a shipwreck in the future, this place will also It can be used as a temporary refuge. Although it is a seaside villa and the scenery is nice, there won’t be many opportunities for you to relax in the future.”

Having said this, Xue Tang paused and added in his heart: I'm afraid you have to be buried in the earth to lie leisurely on the back mountain and enjoy the sea breeze every day.

"So, I thought about using resources as rationally as possible. Of course, if the general is dissatisfied, he can rebuild it, or I specially set aside a vacant land and add a luxurious house there for the general. I have seen , the feng shui there is very good.”

It was beyond his expectation that you could build the villa like this and consider it so carefully.

He didn't plan to build a house here, and it wasn't suitable here. However, land was specially reserved for him and he looked at the Feng Shui...

Qin Huangyuan felt warm in his heart, but his face remained calm and he asked: "Where is the place left?"

"Behind the artificial lake, between the cemetery and the ancestral hall."

Xue Tang said nonchalantly.

Qin Shuanyuan left a cemetery for her. Although she didn't want it, she still showed Qin Shuanyuan the homestead. She knew how to reciprocate.

The air was stagnant for a moment, and the candlelight stopped beating.

Qin Shuanyuan: "..."

He focused his attention on Xue Tang.

She sat opposite him, dressed in black brocade, with her long hair tied up high. Except for a gold hairpin on her head, there was no extra decoration, which made her more cool and capable. The long and dense eyelashes cast a light shadow on her eyelids, making her look particularly serious when she spoke.

The last time he had a quick meeting, he didn't look carefully. This was the first time he had observed Xue Tang so closely and seriously.

Her temperament is unique.

Qin Huangyuan silently stroked the place on the back of his hand where the needle had just been pricked, and his eyes couldn't help but deepen.

Xue Tang, although you are serious and although he does not understand Feng Shui, he has an intuition. If he lived in the place you mentioned, he would definitely be able to sweep graves and raise fish every day, day and night. …

A good soldier never tires of deception.

As soon as he comes back, you can discuss the art of war with him.

Fun though!
"Big brother!"

At this time, Qin Mingrui's voice came from the window.

As soon as he heard it, he knew that he was running this way with his eyes full of joy and couldn't help shouting.

Qin Huangyuan has witnessed the growth of Qin Mingshu with his own eyes these two times he came back. He is very relieved about Qin Mingshu. He is not worried about Qin Mingqi's smart mind and talent. However, he has not much impression of the changes in Qin Mingrui, the devil in the world. Now he hears the voice like a puppy outside the house. , his brows frowned subconsciously.

From fighting and fighting all day long before, to being serious when we first met on the boat, to now being a good boy. Qin Huangyuan was sure that this was Qin Mingrui's true face after his change.

That was good, but why did he feel like a naughty kid had gotten into trouble and came back to him to blame him?
Qin Huangyuan glanced at the closed door and asked in a deep voice, "What's the matter?"

Qin Mingrui stood outside the door, holding a medium-sized box, and smiled mischievously, "It's the gift brought back by the eldest brother. We have finished moving it. I accidentally knocked over the box while moving it. I I feel that this item is too valuable and is not appropriate to put in the warehouse with other items.”

As he said that, he patted the lid of the box with a smile, as if his brother would definitely find a good home for you.

Qin Huangyuan's eyebrows suddenly jumped.

A picture suddenly appeared in his mind: a small figure jumped back and forth in front of his boxes, opening them one by one. Not only that, Qin Mingrui also stretched out his dirty paws and touched the gift he was going to give to Xue Tang. He also took his subordinates to repeatedly judge...

Bang!
Qin Huangyuan broke through the door and walked out.

Seeing the figure flashing in front of him, Qin Mingrui felt blood pressure rushing towards his face. A chill ran down his spine. He hugged the box and burped suddenly, "Big brother."

"Did you open it?" Qin Huangyuan snatched the box from his hand and asked in a dangerous tone.

Qin Mingrui's back was dripping with cold sweat, and he shook his head fiercely, "No, absolutely not. When the box was turned over, I quickly caught it with my quick eyes and hands. The lid was still tightly closed and had never been opened. I promise I didn't see anything inside. Things, I just saw that this box was more exquisite, so I guessed that the things inside were more valuable. Haha, maybe my guess was not very accurate. How could I see the gift you gave to my sister-in-law? My sister-in-law said that I should respect it? The privacy of others, even parents, children, brothers and sisters, husband and wife, and close friends, must be respected. I remember, I am not an unqualified person like Mu Xian. "

A cold light flashed across Qin Huangyuan's eyes, and he asked coldly: "What's going on with Mu Xian?"

Qin Mingrui raised his hand and covered his mouth.

It’s over.

Boss Mu, he really didn’t betray you sincerely, please believe him...

Qin Huangyuan gritted his teeth when he heard that Mu Xian showed off his elaborate lamp at the gate and was seen by so many outsiders.

When he was away from the capital, he rarely took the initiative to ask about the situation in the capital. Qin Lu and Mu Xian took the initiative to report. He knew their ability to do things and had no doubts about their employment. He also gave them enough trust, but he didn't. Thinking that Mu Xian was so out of character now.

"Brother, are you angry?" Qin Mingrui shrank his neck and summoned up the courage to ask.

Qin Huangyuan said nothing and turned around and entered the house.

The cold air coming from his brother was even colder than this year's northwest wind... Qin Mingrui trembled silently, and had already helped Mu Xian brainstorm many tragic endings.

After Qin Huangyuan closed the door, Xue Tang said calmly: "Good fortune and misfortune depend on each other. If Mu Xian had not taken out the lamp, I would not have known the news at sea in time, and you would not be sitting here without any danger at this moment, so , Mu Xian’s behavior was wrong, but the unexpected result was good.”

Open your mouth to plead with Mu Xian?

Qin Huangyuan put the box at his feet. After sitting down, he raised his eyelids and glanced at Xue Tang, but he could not see any useful information from Xue Tang's indifferent face.

He picked up the tea cup, took a sip of tea, and then asked: "What do you think Madam should do with Mu Xian?"

"Of course you will be punished if you make a mistake, because in many things, the merits and demerits cannot be equal. So don't think too much, general. I have no intention of interfering with your discipline of your subordinates. I am telling you the implications, just to give you a consideration, so as not to make you act too harshly. It hurt your life, and you will regret it when you find out the truth later.”

Above the Taotie Tower, Mu Xian was sitting by the window when his neck suddenly felt cold.

A strong sense of crisis suddenly came to my mind.

He was instantly alert, his eyes widened, staring in the direction of the city gate, and he drank another bowl of herbal tea for himself.

Don't worry, general. Although he doesn't know martial arts, he has weapons and the private soldiers you gave him. He will definitely defend to the death. Even if he risks his life, the news of your return will never reach the capital.
