Chapter 555

Mrs. Yang also felt a little embarrassed by what Zhao Caifeng said, so she just lowered her head and smiled and said, "Forget it, don't mention these things for those who celebrate Chinese New Year. Tomorrow is New Year's Eve. I have to prepare something for ancestor worship."

But he said that when Carpenter Qian arrived at the border, although he followed Imperial Physician Du, the military discipline was strict after all, and it was impossible for unknown people to sneak in.Carpenter Qian had no choice but to tell General Xiao his number in General Cheng's army.General Xiao was cautious and cautious. Although he did remember that there was such a number one person in General Cheng's personal army more than ten years ago, he still sent [-] miles to rush and ordered someone to tell Old General Cheng about Carpenter Qian.

Old General Cheng looked at the portraits and letters sent by General Xiao, and invited Mrs. Cheng into the study in fright, and sighed with his hands behind his back: "I have been hiding for more than ten years, but I didn't expect him to appear at this time."

When Mrs. Cheng saw the portrait, although she was a little different from the majestic and mighty young man more than ten years ago, she still recognized it at a glance, and said excitedly: "Master, why is he appearing at this time? I don't know if Lanzhi is going to marry Xiao San soon? I managed to deal with a few gossiping old slaves, but he popped up again, what's the matter?"

Old General Cheng kept his eyes on the letter sent by General Xiao, and continued: "In Swallow Valley, he was seriously injured just to save me. In the battle of Swallow Valley, there are not many people alive. He probably I heard that General Xiao and the others had reached the Swallow Valley, so I probably went, after all, if something happened to Xiao San, Lanzhi would be the saddest person."

Mrs. Cheng just wiped her tears when she heard the words, and continued: "But he hasn't shown up for so many years, if Lanzhi finds out about him, how can I explain it? An iron plate, the people in Lanzhi Courtyard can also rely on it, but I just can't rest assured in my heart, I always feel that this matter is not that simple, Mrs. Xiao is so powerful, if she knows Lanzhi's life experience, this family I'm afraid the marriage will not work out."

Old General Cheng frowned tightly when he heard the words, and sighed: "Can this kind of thing be kept secret for a while, or for a lifetime? Apart from our family members, Qian Hao's family also knew about those things back then. , do you think that if you sell their family, they won't know about these things?"

Mrs. Cheng just sat down on the stool and began to cry.

In the courtyard outside, several women were hurrying towards the main courtyard, with a somewhat horrified expression on their faces. Mama Liu, who was beside Madam Cheng, saw Madam Tan coming out from Madam Cheng's courtyard, so she hurried forward and lowered her head. The voice said: "Go to the girl's yard and watch, and tell the girl not to come out. There is a village woman with a boy outside, who says it is the girl's uncle, and she is here to celebrate the girl's New Year."

Tan's mother was shocked when she heard the words, and she just muttered: "Damn, what year do you wish, it's not over yet! I'm afraid they are here to seek bad luck, why don't you hurry up and beat him away?"

"I don't dare to call, what if she says some stupid words again, I just let her wait in the side hall outside, and see what my wife will do!"

"Amitabha, it's been more than ten years, how can someone still come here!" Mother Tan just put her hands together and recited the Buddha, and the two heads were almost close together, when suddenly they heard a crisp voice behind him asking Said: "What is mother talking about? Where did I come from? Isn't the master the only son of the old lady?"

The two women were startled by the voice, and both of them changed their faces. It was Tan's mother who was more mature, and she just smiled and said, "I'm afraid you heard it wrong, she is a relative of your wife's natal family, and I don't recognize you." of."

Cheng Lanzhi is also a smart person, looking at the expressions of the two, it is clear that he has something to hide from him.Recently, the family has sent many servants away for no reason. Although Cheng Lanzhi doesn't leave the door, but she doesn't leave the second door, she can naturally hear a little gossip. It's just that General Cheng and his wife want to love her. If she thinks the same way, I'm afraid It hurt the hearts of the two of them, so they just thought it was made up by those servants and didn't take it to heart. Now that they heard these words, they became more and more suspicious.

"Since this is the case, then Madam Liu should go to the study to inform Madam, and I will go back to the room." Cheng Lanzhi turned to go back to the room, and saw that Mama Tan was still in a daze, so she just turned around and said, "Mama Tan, there are still stewed bird's nests in the kitchen." , help me to remind you."

Tan's mother was relieved to see that Cheng Lanzhi hadn't asked the truth, and went to the kitchen in response.

When the two women had gone far away, Cheng Lanzhi stopped in her tracks. It was chilly outside, and the plum blossoms in the small garden were in full bloom. Cheng Lanzhi, wrapped in a mink fur cloak, walked to the side hall of the outer courtyard. , I saw a woman dressed in country clothes sitting inside with a child in her arms, wearing coarse clothes, the small plate with tea and fruits in front of her was empty, and there were some crumbs of pastries in it.

Cheng Lanzhi had never seen this person before, so naturally he didn't know who she was, that person was talking to the child in his arms, when he looked up and saw Cheng Lanzhi, his eyebrows immediately raised, and he just stood up and looked at Cheng Lanzhi. The child threw it aside, looked at Cheng Lanzhi and said: "Oh, the girl has grown up so much, she really looks exactly like your mother."
