pretty lady in disguise

Chapter 78

Ayu cried in his brother's arms for a full quarter of an hour, and finally stopped crying under the regular pats of the man. When he raised his head, his eyes were swollen.

Cheng Yang has experienced many things, and the agitation in his heart has calmed down. He let his sister stare at him, and he carefully helped her dry the tears on her face, lest her face would be wrinkled by the cold wind.

The eyes of the brother and sister are full of reunion after a long absence. Mingyue and the coachman looked at each other awkwardly, silently conveying their respective unease.

In A Yu's eyes, only this elder brother with a firm and handsome face but still vaguely looks like a boy was left, Cheng Yang thought too much, glanced at the two servants, he hugged his sister down, and said to Mingyue: "Go back and tell Zhan The eldest grandma of the family, just say that our brothers and sisters are reunited, and Ayu will come to visit some other day." He came back in a hurry, and when he approached the county town, he was non-stop, but he didn't expect to see only a little maid at home, who couldn't speak clearly, so he hurriedly asked My sister caught up with her whereabouts.Now go home with my younger sister first, and ask how she has been doing these years, and other things, such as why the furnishings in the house are so expensive and why my younger sister knows a wealthy businessman in the county, he will personally send someone to inquire.

Mingyue hesitated.Just now when the brothers and sisters were reminiscing about the old days, she had quietly observed this man who called himself Cheng Yang. He was wearing cowhide boots, and he was wearing a raven-blue hang silk round-neck gown, covered with a black satin suede cloak, and wearing a jade crown. Qi, absolutely extraordinary.Just looking at the appearance, the man and A Yu only have a slight similarity in eyes. Although A Yu recognizes him as an older brother, A Yu is innocent in the first place. What if the other party is just a fake?A Yu is the second young master's favorite person, I believe this matter has been spread long ago, if someone deliberately tricks A Yu away and threatens the second young master...

Mingyue didn't dare to think about it any further, but she didn't dare to stop the man's sharp gaze. She pretended to be calm and said, "Mr. Cheng is going to take Miss Ayu back to Wang's Village now? Give the girl a ride?" If this person doesn't go back to the village, she absolutely dare not let him go, she must let the coachman stop him.If they go back, Changan will stay in Wangjiacun, he has seen a lot, she can discuss it with him.

"No need." Cheng Yang Surong refused, turned to A Yu and said, "This is not far from home, let's go back, brother hasn't been home with you for a long time." The road was quiet, he wanted to have a good talk with his sister.

Ayu nodded, and smiled at Mingyue in the car: "Then I'll go back with my brother first, and you apologize to my cousin for me."

Cheng Yang raised his eyebrows slightly, isn't that the eldest mistress of the Zhan family?How did you become a cousin girl?

Mingyue wanted to persuade him again, but Cheng Yang had already held the horse in one hand and his sister in the other, turned around and walked back along the dirt road.

"Miss Mingyue, what should we do now?" The coachman was bewildered.

Mingyue bit her lips, and finally said: "You drive slowly first, I will pay attention to the back, if they really enter the village, let's go back and report to the second young master!"

That's the only way to go for the time being, the coachman returned to the seat and gave a soft "drive".

Mingyue crouched in front of the rear window, secretly staring at it.

Cheng Yang walked slowly, and first explained to A Yu why he hadn't heard from him for so long.

"My brother encountered bandits on the way to escort the escort, and was caught by them on the mountain. They forced me to join the gang, but I refused. They locked me up and worked as coolies every day. After working for more than a year, the officers and soldiers came to suppress the bandits. I was taken away as a bandit accomplice and sent to the Northwest to join the army. It’s shameful to say that, since I joined the army, my brother thought that it would be better to fight a good fight and earn an official to honor our ancestors. I didn’t expect to fight for only half a year. The general above was defeated. I and the others Dozens of soldiers have become prisoners, and it will last four years in the enemy's country..."

"The two countries fought again. My brother escaped by luck and made some contributions. At that time, my brother wanted to come back to you, but the war was tense, and my brother couldn't get away and couldn't send you a letter. The army returned to the court in September , my brother was busy asking for an official position on our side, and he couldn't get away, so he sent someone to deliver a letter to you, but after the person inquired, he said that you were a monk early and died in a fire in March. You didn't know that brother listened How much after talking... Ayu, when I came back this time, my brother originally wanted to seek revenge for you, but fortunately, fortunately, you are fine."

Cheng Yang let go of the horse rope and hugged his younger sister into his arms again: "Don't cry, that's all in the past, isn't my brother well now? In the future, we brothers and sisters will live a happy life together. Ah Yu, don't cry, you can talk to your brother well , how did you become a monk? Uncle doesn’t want you anymore, he forced you to become a nun? And what happened to the fire in the nunnery, and what’s your relationship with the Zhan family?” The younger sister was lost, and he was anxious to see her, so he just Ask the little maid about where her sister has gone and who the Zhan family is.

In the past, A Yu actually had nothing to say.

Her memory was too vague, she only remembered that she had a serious illness, and she had become a nun when she woke up. As for whether she passed out at the door of the nunnery or what happened, she didn't remember.The life of the nunnery has been similar day by day for several years. She introduced the master, ancestor and sisters, so there is nothing to say, unless Cheng Yang asked carefully, she didn't deliberately recall anything, and the last thing was after she met Zhan Huaichun up.

There are reasons and effects, and there are some things that Ah Yu wants to pass on vaguely, but Cheng Yang insists on them, such as why Ah Yu was expelled from the nunnery by the host.A Yu wanted to lie, but she felt guilty when Cheng Yang gave her a look, so she had to tell about Zhan Huaichun forcing her to break the precept.Then she was a maid again, why did she remember things from her childhood, so Cheng Yang also knew about Zhan Huaichun beating her, and then there was the extra house next door...

In the end, the only thing A Yu can hide is the intimacy that can't be said anyway.

But who is Cheng Yang, he doesn't think too much when he doesn't know, but when he knows, he directly asks a very important question: "Since Ying'er is your maid, why does she sleep on the same kang with you?" The younger sister stood in the room for a while, but he remembered the layout inside very clearly.

It was used by her to guard against Zhan Huaichun, but how could Ah Yu tell the truth.

She lowered her head to make an excuse, Cheng Yang looked at her red face, clenched his fists and said, "Needless to say, brother knows that you are afraid of the dark and dare not sleep alone." He didn't want to embarrass his sister too much.

Ayu breathed a sigh of relief.

At this time, the two had already entered the village. Cheng Yang asked Ayu to sit on the horse, and he led her back. When he met villagers on the road, he remembered many of them and greeted them one by one.The villagers recognized him with shocked expressions.

A Yu watched quietly, feeling unprecedentedly at peace in her heart, her brother really came back.

The two arrived at the house slowly. Ayu just got off the horse when she suddenly saw Yinger poking her head out from the door next door, her eyes met. Ayu wondered why Yinger got there, but Yinger had already run over crying. She wanted to hug Ah Yu and complain, but Cheng Yang didn't give her a chance.Ying'er was afraid, and even more afraid that her master would suffer, so she stepped back and cried, "Girl, this man is a bad guy! He forced his way into our house, and Chang'an tried to stop him, but he kicked him unconscious, and he was still lying inside, girl, you Stay away from him!"

Ayu was stunned, and asked Cheng Yang in disbelief: "Brother, did you hit Chang'an?"

"Don't worry, that injury won't kill you, it's cold outside, let's go home." Cheng Yang took his sister's hand and walked directly inside.

Ayu felt uneasy, turned her head to look at Ying'er who was stunned, and couldn't help but said: "What are you doing in Chang'an, he is the young master's servant, he treats me very well."

Knowing that his sister was kind-hearted, Cheng Yang bowed his head to apologize to her: "At that time, my brother didn't know that he was from the Zhan family, so he was a bit heavy-handed, Ayu, don't blame me. After a while, my brother's people arrived, and my brother immediately asked them to hire a doctor to give him See a doctor. Let’s go, brother hasn’t had breakfast yet, so Ah Yu can cook something for brother.”

Ayu suddenly forgot about Chang'an and went to cook for his brother.

Cheng Yang was sitting at the south gate of the kitchen, watching his sister cooking for him with a smile, his heart softened.

The sun gradually moved higher, and suddenly there was a sound of horseshoes outside, and it sounded like there were more than a dozen people.The last dish of mushroom stew in the pot was still almost done. A Yu was sitting on the low stool in front of the stove to light the fire, and was very curious to hear the movement.Cheng Yang patted her on the shoulder and said with a smile: "It's my brother's people who have come. I'll go out to pick them up. You are not allowed to go out until I come back. Ah Yu is a big girl now, so you can't let outside men see easily."

Ayu nodded obediently.

Cheng Yang stood up, closed the south gate from the outside, turned around and walked towards the gate.

Yinger has been standing in the yard, Cheng Yang glanced at her, and said coldly: "Go back to the next door, don't wait for me to chase her away."

Ying'er ran away, and when she went out, she saw several tall and strong men getting off their horses one after another. She was so frightened that her face turned pale, her legs trembled and she ran into the next door, and hurriedly closed the door, her heart was about to jump out.The girl called that man's brother. I heard that the girl's brother was taken away by bandits. Could it be that he is also a bandit now?
"What's going on?" Chang'an had already woken up, and when he heard the movement, he came out and saw Ying'er running in panic.

"Girl's brother is back. He became a bandit and brought several bandits with him. What shall we do!" Ying'er grabbed Chang'an's arm as if grabbing a life-saving straw. She didn't want the girl to become a bandit too.

Chang An's face changed, and he sent Ying'er to the house, where he quietly slipped under the wall to listen.

Cheng Yang was instructing his subordinates: "...the nuns' names are Jingci, Qingshiqinghua, and Mingrong Minghua Mingxin. Before tomorrow morning, you bring them all here and lock them up next door. Together with my uncle's family, I will personally interrogate."

"Yes!" The six of them clasped their hands together, got on their horses and left.

Chang'an's heart skipped a beat, there are not many good nuns in Yuquan Nunnery, the person who beat him was really Brother Ayu?To seek revenge for my sister?
Just as he was thinking, he suddenly heard the man say again: "You two guard the front and back doors, I will interrogate them first in a while."

"Don't worry, my lord, I guarantee that none of my subordinates will escape."

Chang An's legs were weak, he didn't hear what the person behind him said clearly, he only heard a final sound, and he couldn't run away...

Chang An really wanted to cry.

Who did he provoke?He has been by the young master's side since he was a child, besides being greedy for petty money, flirting with the young master, and recently being a little careful with Ying'er, he has never done any other bad things, why did he run into a bandit?

Chang'an was in a panic, and staggered back to the house.Don't be in a hurry, Ah Yu knows that he is good. After a while, her brother really wants to do something, so he asks Ah Yu to save him no matter what.Also, Mingyue and the others should go back. The young master will definitely come to rescue him after hearing about it. The young master is so good at it, and a few more bandits are no match for him.

Thinking of this, Chang An calmed down a bit.

As soon as the thought came to his mind, another fast horse came rushing outside. Changan listened attentively, and heard the "bang" knocking on the door, which was earth-shattering.

He was overjoyed, the sound of kicking the door was made by the young master, who in the other family can kick the door so loudly!

It was really loud enough that Ayu was so scared that when he handed the job bowl to his brother, he couldn't hold it firmly, and the whole bowl was directly buckled on the table.

"Ayu!"

It was Zhan Huaichun calling her!

A Yu was overjoyed, and just about to respond, the man who was sitting cross-legged on the Kang suddenly interrupted her: "You wait in the room, brother go out and have a look."

Ayu was suddenly worried, and begged in a low voice: "Brother, he has a bad temper, don't hit him..." Zhan Huaichun is also really, what kind of door is he kicking?
Cheng Yang smiled softly, told her not to go out again, and then greeted her.
