Chapter 609 He Likes Me
"Your father has had a harder time than any of us these past few years."
Lu Qiniang pulled Erya to sit on the couch, took out a handkerchief, gently wiped her tears, and comforted her carefully.
"We can still write to each other and tell each other we're safe. Your father is alone, living in hiding, and no one would tell us if he missed us."
Every time Lu Qiniang thought of this, she felt sorry for Xiao Yan.
Xiao Yan always keeps all his sufferings in his heart and never complains.
"Actually, I'm not that angry. A little girl, being young, will always have her thoughts wander. If she's really scheming, she'll have to be secretly plotting behind my back. If I meet someone like that, I'll have a headache."
Lu Qiniang felt that Wang Changling was so stupid that it was a little cute.
"I don't want to argue with her either." Lu Qiniang continued, "Maybe in a few years, she will regret it terribly."
"You always think the best of people, but you're afraid she won't repent."
"She refuses to repent, and she will suffer in the future. Anyway, I'm sure she won't be able to gain any advantage from your father."
Then why bother her with what she does?
"Besides, she is the princess's niece after all. One should look at the owner before beating a dog. This matter will definitely reach the princess's ears. Do you think she will feel embarrassed when the time comes?"
"I don't think about that." Arya said bitterly, "When she tried to separate you and my father, she didn't have any good intentions at all."
"Well, she's not a good person, but we are." Lu Qiniang said, "Ignore her. Come, Xiaoman, come over and call Second Sister."
"I did, I just did." Erya wiped her tears and called Yunting repeatedly, "Where are the things I brought for Xiaoman? Send someone to bring them in quickly."
These are all rare imported things, my brother will definitely like them.
"You just spoil him." Lu Qiniang scolded with a smile.
Xiaoman, however, happily "thanked her second sister" without any shyness, as if they were originally siblings from this place.
Erya likes her younger brother no matter how she looks at him.
Yun Ting said, "I'll take Xiao Man to play next door, you two can have a good chat."
"Okay." Erya nodded.
Yunting took Xiaoman out.
Seeing the tacit understanding between the two, Lu Qiniang had some guesses in her mind, so she tentatively asked why Yun Ting was with Erya.
"He said he didn't want to compete with others for credit, so he went to Guangzhou Prefecture to find me to avoid the limelight."
"That's it?"
Lu Qiniang said, why did she not believe it?
"That's an excuse." Erya said frankly, "Mom, he likes me."
Lu Qiniang almost choked on her own saliva.
"You kid..."
Why is it so straightforward?
Erya said, why should she pretend in front of her mother?
I like it because I like it.
"He said he wanted to marry me."
"So what do you think?"
"I haven't thought about it yet."
Lu Qiniang suddenly didn't know what to say.
When it comes to their children's marriage, parents should also give careful advice.
"Then, wait for your father to come back." After a while, Lu Qin's mother said, "You should also think about it carefully."
"Not for now." Erya said, "I still want to spend more time with mother. We can talk about other things after we return to Beijing."
"Yeah, okay."
Lu Qiniang thought that she and Yun Ting hadn't seen each other for too long.
Girls change a lot when they grow up, but boys may change a lot when they grow up.
Zhang Heyao was fine before he left home...
Moreover, Yun Ting is no longer the child who swore that he would not eat anything at her house, but would then eat something that smelled really good, making people laugh and cry.
He has grown into an adult who can stand on his own.
"No, I want to write a letter to my father." Erya thought about it and was still angry. "I want my father to explain things to Wang Changling, so that she won't really think I'm a dish."
"No, your father is busy!" Lu Qin's mother stopped him.
"My father isn't that busy right now. He must have won the battle. Maybe he's preparing to come back."
Lu Qiniang was overjoyed when she heard this, "What do you mean?"
Could it be that she was just talking nonsense?
"My father asked the little god to send me a message last time, saying that there was no need to transport things over there anymore, because the war was almost over."
Calculating the time, a long time has passed.
"That's good, that's good." Lu Qin's mother said, "Then does your father have to go to the capital first?"
Leading troops to fight is no joke.
I have to go and give an explanation to King Yan first.
Prince Yan is probably about to ascend the throne.
Now that he has become the emperor, Xiao Yan has to perform even better.
Thinking of this, Lu Qiniang felt a little worried again.
"You should remind your father not to neglect the prince just because you are familiar with him. He is the emperor."
"Don't worry, my father is very calm! He just doesn't know how to keep himself clean, huh!"
"It's not your father's fault."
"But mother—"
"Um?"
"Zhang Heyao is very powerful." Erya muttered.
"What's so great?"
This nonsensical sentence made Lu Qiniang confused.
"He even found out everything about Wang Changling. You see, she's just a niece of Princess Yan."
It’s like randomly picking a question from the vast ocean of books.
The fact that he could answer the questions fluently did not prove that he knew the answer to the question, but that he had everything planned out in his mind.
Such meticulous thoughts are terrifying when you think about them carefully.
"Maybe it's a coincidence." Lu Qiniang said.
"It's not such a coincidence. Mother, what is Zhang Heyao doing here? Is he trying to stay out of the spotlight, waiting for the court to appoint him?"
"He said he wanted to stay here." Lu Qiniang felt a little embarrassed.
"He said he wanted to stay here with you?"
"Well, he just said that, I ignored him."
"That's exactly what he said." Erya said, "If I'm not mistaken, the prince will definitely use him again after he ascends the throne."
"Really? That would be great."
Arya said quietly, "I'm just worried my dad will think it's bad."
"Well, your father is not such a petty person. Are you hungry? Mom will cook for you."
"I'm really a little hungry. Come on, Mom, I'll go to the kitchen with you."
After a long separation, I naturally want to be close to my mother.
At the same time, the Liaodong battlefield had indeed won a great victory.
Xiao Yan is now on his way back to Beijing.
In the evening, Mr. Zhuge came to see Xiao Yan with a lunch box.
He took out a pot of wine and two plates of snacks from the food box and said he wanted to have a drink with Xiao Yan.
Xiao Yan had a good relationship with him, so he didn't refuse and sat down with him with a smile.
Mr. Zhuge couldn't have come to see him just to drink, he must have something to say.
Sure enough, after two drinks, Mr. Zhuge asked Xiao Yan about his future plans.
Xiao Yan said implicitly, "Of course I have to listen to the prince's arrangements."
"What if the prince wants to grant you a high position and generous salary?" Mr. Zhuge asked.
"Then I will do my best to repay the prince in the future."
Mr. Zhuge sighed, "Why didn't General Xiao retreat while he was ahead? You know, power is a double-edged sword."
Xiao Yan said, "Thank you, sir, but if I have no power or influence, how can I protect my wife and daughter?"
He was resolute.
Zhang Heyao will surely be powerful in the future. Could it be that he is content to be an idle wanderer?
If there is any problem with my wife and daughter in the future, will Qi Niang ask Zhang Heyao for help?
no way!
