After a long time, Jiang Shanhe calmed down, at least stopped crying, and slowly let go of Xiaoguo.
Xiaoguo's legs were numb, not to mention his waist.
Xiaoguo held onto the table and sat down. Jiang Shanhe felt a little embarrassed when he saw this.
Wiping the tears from his face, he said, "My dear, why didn't you use the money to buy food during the famine?"
Jiang Shanhe knew the difficulties of that period. As far as he knew, although there was no food in some areas, there should be people buying food in county towns and cities. The price was just doubled, so although they would not be able to eat their fill, at least they could survive.
"Where is the silver?"
"After faking your death, no one continues to send you money?"
Jiang Shanhe frowned. This shouldn't be the case. At that time, in addition to Shao Zhan sending money every month, he also had the Ministry of War transfer two-thirds of his monthly salary to his family. Could there be a mistake?
Jiang Shanhe would definitely not doubt Xiaoguo's words. If the money was not delivered on time, then there must be a mistake in the middle. The most important point is to check the Ministry of War. After all, all the money for the families of officers and soldiers came from there. There must be someone in the Ministry of War who is playing tricks...
Jiang Shanhe was not going to tell Xiaoguo about these troubles, so he decided to deal with them himself.
Because of this little episode, Jiang Shanhe and Xiaoguo both forgot about the daughter they had just mentioned.
The two of them talked again, with Jiang Shanhe doing most of the talking and Xiaoguo listening, but Xiaoguo also briefly told him about the situation at home.
Finally she figured out why she came here.
"Why don't you stay here? Why do you have to go home? Are you really willing to give up the life here? You have money and status. Are you really willing to go home and farm and be a country bumpkin?"
Xiaoguo asked doubtfully. If Jiang Shanhe really thought so, then his spiritual realm was really high enough, and she really admired him.
Jiang Shanhe nodded and looked outside, with an indescribable feeling in his heart.
Xiaoguo nodded, expressing her admiration for him. He was able to remain calm and not be dazzled by this world, which showed that he had great determination.
But! If he really goes back, then won’t he have to live with me?!
Xiaoguo suddenly thought of this, which is not good...
"My wife."
Xiao Guo subconsciously replied, "Ah huh?"
Seeing Jiang Danhe's puzzled expression, Xiaoguo realized what she had said. If there was a crack in the ground, she would definitely crawl into it at the first opportunity. It was so embarrassing. What? Haha, did they ask you to sing?
"My lady, it's getting late. Go to bed early."
Jiang Shanhe said this with a red face, and he was obviously a little shy about sharing a bed with his wife again after several years.
"Huh? What! You want to sleep with me?!"
Xiaoguo almost choked on her saliva. No, no, no!
"..."
Jiang Shanhe was a little hurt. Why did his wife react so strongly? They had been married before, so it was legitimate and of course they should sleep together.
Although he was also a little embarrassed.
Finally, Xiaoguo pushed him out. What a joke! Even if you have that soft-hearted face, you can’t do this in broad daylight. You are a hooligan in the middle of the night. Get out!
Xiaoguo closed the door vigorously and then locked it neatly.
He no longer paid attention to Jiang Danhe who was standing outside the door pretending to be pitiful, and enjoyed Jiang Danhe's room and bed with peace of mind.
Xiaoguo lay comfortably on the bed. It was amazing that Jiang Danhe, a grown man, was quite clean. There was not even a trace of strange smell on the quilt and pillow.
At first I thought I couldn't fall asleep, but as I thought about Zhuang Zhuang and smelled the scent of the quilt and pillow, I gradually fell asleep...
Jiang Shanhe watched the candles in the room go out, and finally sighed and accepted the reality, tied his belt again, and took off his clothes in vain...
Lift your legs and walk in the other direction.
"Li Shouji, open the door!"
Inside the Palace
"Zhuangzhuang, is General Jiang your father?"
Xiao Yi lay on the bed, kicking his legs and asked Zhuangzhuang who had just taken a shower.
"...Um."
Zhuangzhuang nodded silently, pulled back the quilt that Xiaoyi had kicked away, and covered him with it.
"My mother told me to cover myself with a blanket at night, otherwise I would catch a cold."
Xiao Yi lay down obediently and let Zhuangzhuang cover him with a quilt, "Your mother is so nice~"
Zhuangzhuang was lying next to Xiaoyi. When he heard Xiaoyi's words, he turned over and looked at him sideways, "My mother is good, and your mother is also very good."
Zhuangzhuang said this warmly, but when Xiaoyi heard what Zhuangzhuang said, his expression changed. He looked at Zhuangzhuang hesitantly, his little face wrinkled into a knot.
"Zhuangzhuang, I have a secret to tell you, but you must not tell anyone else!"
Xiao Yi trusts Zhuang Zhuang very much, and he thinks there should be no secrets between friends.
Seeing Xiao Yi's serious look, Zhuang Zhuang also became serious and assured him, "Don't worry, I won't tell anyone!"
"Actually, I don't have a mother..."
Zhuangzhuang’s little mouth has never closed since he said the first sentence. This is really an amazing secret.
After Xiao Yi finished speaking, he looked at Zhuangzhuang with some trepidation. He had hidden such a big secret from him and wondered if he would forgive him.
Who knew that when she looked up at Zhuangzhuang, she would get a hug from him.
"Strong?"
Xiao Yi was in a daze. He was somewhat happy and excited about Zhuangzhuang's hug, yet also a little confused.
"Xiao Yi, I'm really happy that you can share this big secret with me. I will definitely keep it a secret. And you don't have to be unhappy. You can treat my mother as your mother. We can all call her mother, okay?"
Zhuangzhuang let go of Xiaoyi and felt a little sorry for him. If he put himself in his shoes, if he didn't have a mother, it would definitely not work. As soon as he thought about his mother being gone, Zhuangzhuang felt like he didn't want to live anymore.
After hearing this, Xiao Yi nodded excitedly, "That's great! Zhuangzhuang, you are so nice!"
He knew from a young age that his parents were not his own parents, and that his biological father could not take care of him because he had his own things to do, and his biological mother had also passed away. He could only call his aunt and uncle mother and father. He knew these things from a young age.
Now, Zhuangzhuang can share such a good mother with him, he really likes Zhuangzhuang so much!
Zhuangzhuang was also very happy that he could make Xiaoyi happy, but thinking of the secret, he still leaned over quietly and whispered carefully in Xiaoyi's ear.
"Xiao Yi, if you still have secrets in the future, you must not tell them to anyone. My mother said that it is best to keep secrets in your heart."
Zhuangzhuang thinks Xiaoyi is a little dull and easy to deceive. If someone approaches him intentionally in the future to get his secrets, he will definitely succeed.
Fortunately, I am not a bad person, otherwise Xiao Yi would have been sold out long ago and would still be counting money for others.
Zhuangzhuang thought of the words his mother often taught him, which were just right for Xiaoyi.
After Zhuangzhuang said this, Xiaoyi actually nodded seriously, indicating that Zhuangzhuang was right.
"Because you are my best friend, I will only share my secrets with you and not with anyone else."
Xiao Yi is also very smart. He knows that Zhuangzhuang is not a bad person, and he really likes Zhuangzhuang and is willing to tell him all his secrets.
The two children continued to talk and laugh until midnight. Finally, they could no longer resist the sleepiness and slowly fell asleep under the same quilt.
