Chapter 52
Wei Lin retched for a while, then held back.He was about to raise his head when he heard that Jiang Ye was still vomiting. Looking on the floor of the carriage, Jiang also really vomited.It was Jiang who returned to the coachman just now. Wei Lin thought he was just retching, but now it seems that he really admires Jiang Ye's ability to vomit and talk back to him calmly.
Wei Lin wanted to go over and pat him on the back to comfort him, but he didn't expect that when he heard Jiang Ye's voice still vomiting, he started to feel nauseous again: "Ouch...don't throw up...I listened to the voice and I also Want to vomit, vomit..."
Jiang also spat out very little, mostly water, with an unpleasant sour smell.Wei Lin managed to stop his nausea. Seeing Jiang Ye's uncomfortable appearance, he suddenly felt insulted.
He leaned over slowly, patted Jiang Ye's back lightly, and said, "Not at all, you're not at a loss..."
Jiang also breathed a sigh of relief, and said weakly: "Motion sickness... oh..."
The speed of the carriage was not too fast, but it really didn't take much time to get from the suburbs to Xue's mansion, and soon the two carriages stopped at the gate of Xue's mansion.Guo Linchong and Min Qiu's car arrived first, so they got out of the car first.
I saw red silk flowers hanging on the stone lions at the entrance of Xue's mansion, and the lanterns on the gate were replaced with red ones.Looking at the scene, Min Qiu couldn't help asking: "Is there a happy event for the general?"
Guo Linchong didn't know what the situation was, and shook his head. Before he could say anything, Wei Lin's carriage also arrived and stopped behind him.Wei Lin lifted the door curtain of the car with a very ugly expression and came out. What followed him was not Jiang Ye, but an unpleasant sour smell.
The driver who was driving for them was the closest, and the smell was the strongest. The driver covered his mouth and nose and asked, "What kind of smell is this..."
Min Qiu and Guo Linchong also smelled it. Although they were not as exaggerated as the coachman, they also frowned.Guo Linchong asked, "Why is there a sour smell?"
Wei Lin was still standing by the side waiting for Jiang Ye to come out, without turning his head and opening his mouth, he replied, "It's the sour smell of love."
Only then did Jiang Ye weakly get out of the car, and the driver hurried to look inside the car, and shouted angrily, "Why did you vomit in the car!"
Jiang Ye's face was pale, and without saying a word, he hunched over and stood next to Min Qiu and Guo Linchong. Wei Lin was still apologizing to the driver: "Maybe it's morning sickness... Excuse me, forgive me."
Guo Linchong couldn't help laughing when he heard the words: "Morning sickness, hahahaha!" He smiled and looked at Jiang Ye.Jiang also didn't have the strength to refute at this time, just wanted to settle the matter in front of him, so he said weakly to the coachman: "You asked someone to wash it, the money is mine, and I will go to Jiangfu to collect it tomorrow."
The coachman was still chattering about "my car, how can it carry passengers?" Hearing Jiang Ye's words, he also greeted Jiang Ye with a mournful face: "Well, well, then Young Master Jiang, I'll leave first." He sighed and shook his head as he said that, he got into the carriage again and left with the other carriage.
Min Qiu put his hand on Jiang Ye's shoulder, and said, "As expected of Young Master Jiang, tsk tsk, amazing."
"Deputy General Min, please don't make trouble with me..." Jiang Ye looked at Min Qiu complainingly, like a resentful wife.Wei Lin watched the two coachmen leave, but no one paid any attention to him. He waved his hands there on his own, and said "goodbye by fate", maybe thinking that the two coachmen were his relatives and friends.Wei Lin walked to Jiang Ye's side, and was the first to notice the gate of Xue's mansion, only to hear him exclaim: "Wow, what a style."
Min Qiu thought he was going to talk about those red silks, but in the end he said this, and he replied helplessly: "I thought you were going to say something."
Guo Linchong immediately remembered that there was still business to do, and patted Min Qiu on the shoulder: "Go ahead and return to life."
"Yeah." Min Qiu nodded.
Guo Linchong stepped up to greet the servant at the door. Wei Lin stood beside Jiang Ye, still muttering, "It's more grand than your house!"
"Are you jealous? Huh? You should be jealous."
"But your house is also very beautiful, there is no need to be jealous."
Jiang also stood there for a long time, but never replied to Wei Lin's words.But Wei Lin has always been like this, even if no one is talking to him, he can still babble non-stop, just like the kind of middle-aged woman who loves to do homework.
He didn't expect that Jiang would suddenly get angry, and he just scratched Wei Lin's ear, and then said again: "Morning sickness? Huh? Tell me again?"
He originally wanted to hit Wei Lin's waist, but Wei Lin was indeed injured, and he couldn't hit his back, and he probably couldn't hit his waist either.In desperation, Jiang had no choice but to grab Wei Lin's ear and twist it.
"It hurts..."
Jiang Ye exerted a little force on his hands, and Wei Lin cried out that it hurts. Jiang Ye twisted and scolded: "Do you think you are hurt so I dare not hit you?"
"Can you give me one more beep?"
There was no other way, his ears were caught off guard by Jiang Ye, Wei Lin had no choice but to give in, "I was wrong, dear father, you are my dear father, I was so wrong..."
"Humph."
Jiang also snorted coldly, and finally let go of his hand.Wei Lin quickly rubbed his red and swollen ears, muttering something in his mouth.
After a while, the four of them were led into Xue's residence by the family servant.Xue Ziqin was sitting in the garden taking a nap, and Zhou Xiao was also beside him. The two of them were lying on the wooden recliner, very comfortable.
Along the way, Wei Lin looked left and right to see the furnishings and decorations in Xue's mansion, but he didn't dare to chat with Jiang Ye anymore. When he saw Xue Ziqin, Wei Lin restrained himself and followed Min Qiu and Guo Linchong obediently.
"Coming?" Hearing footsteps, Xue Ziqin opened his eyes and looked, "Why are there four people? Who is hiding behind?"
Wei Lin heard that he was called, and immediately appeared from behind, with a flattering smile: "Hi, General! I haven't seen you for a long time! General, are you all right?!"
"It's you brat." Xue Ziqin glanced at Wei Lin. He naturally remembered Wei Lin. After all, there are not many soldiers who dare to talk nonsense in front of him.
It was Min Qiu who was the first to be unable to restrain his emotions, stepped forward and knelt down at Xue Ziqin's feet: "The last general has neglected his duties, please punish the general."
Xue Ziqin straightened up from the reclining chair, looked at Min Qiu and said, "What's going on in Hanzhou?"
Min Qiu lowered his head, and said truthfully: "One of the recruits is called Cao Zhong, he is a secret agent, his original name is Cao Zhong'an, and he is the guard of Hanzhou. I don't know where he learned that the general was traveling secretly, and then he brought someone to take him We caught them all..."
Hearing this, Wei Lin looked at Min Qiu with some confusion.
How Cao Zhong got the information was not because he didn't notice the abnormality at all, so he told others as if it was commonplace.What Wei Lin didn't quite understand was why Min Qiu wanted to cover up for him... But it's okay to cover up, with Xue Ziqin's violent temper, Wei Lin might be beaten to death on the spot.Jiang also listened to Min Qiu's narration, and immediately guessed that it was probably Wei Lin who did it, so he turned to look at Wei Lin.Wei Lin seemed to sense that Jiang was also looking at him, so he also turned his head to meet Jiang's gaze.What Jiang Ye meant was clearly written in his eyes. Wei Lin knew that he was the culprit, so he turned his head guiltily, looked at a certain tree in the garden, and pretended that he didn't know anything.
Listening to Min Qiu's report, Xue Ziqin repeated it solemnly: "Cao Zhong'an..." He suddenly looked up at Jiang Ye and asked, "Is that the person you mentioned?" Of course he couldn't remember who Cao Zhong was. Which person, hearing what they said now, can't even remember his appearance for a while.
Jiang also nodded seriously: "Exactly."
"Oh..." Xue Ziqin replied, but the voice dragged on for a long time, as if there was more to say.He stood up and walked back and forth in front of the four of them, his eyes finally resting on Jiang Ye, and he reprimanded loudly: "Then why didn't you bastard say it earlier?"
Jiang was also a little annoyed at being yelled at, and replied without thinking, "Didn't I tell you everything!"
"The first time you mention this matter, you should say it directly!"
"...I didn't have time to say it, so you let me ride a horse."
Xue Ziqin was so stunned by this frank and factual answer that he was speechless for a moment, he could only get angry at Min Qiu and said, "Okay, you acted recklessly, and only 400 people came back in the end. This time you have a big problem Don’t be a lieutenant or something, don’t be any more!”
The most important thing is, among them, only two hundred of the old man's elite soldiers died, and four hundred of the 1000 men were lost. Why didn't the old man peel him off?Just thinking about it gave Xue Ziqin a headache.
Min Qiu felt distressed in his heart, this matter is indeed his responsibility, now that Xue Ziqin said so, he can only respond and dare not say anything else.
Unexpectedly, Zhou Xiao, who had been dozing beside him, suddenly opened his eyes and said, "Ziqin, there's no need to do this. It's not Lieutenant General Min's responsibility to be tricked by the enemy."
Min Qiu raised his eyes and glanced at Zhou Xiao gratefully. Of course he knew that Zhou Xiao was pleading for himself.I only heard Zhou Xiao continue to say: "Besides, you will get married in the future, and it will not be too late to decide on the military camp."
As if he thought Zhou Xiao was too talkative, Xue Ziqin turned to stare at him.
Sure enough, as he expected, the four of them were very surprised, especially Wei Lin, who was hiding behind and didn't know what he was doing, but immediately popped up when he heard this remark: "General, you are getting married!"
Jiang Ye usually had a calm temper, so he followed Wei Lin and asked, "Why is the general getting married all of a sudden?"
Now look at the busy servants around, and the red silk decorations in front of Xue's house, it seems that this is indeed the case.
Xue Ziqin immediately changed from his serious expression when he was talking about military affairs to a frowning expression: "What did you tell them to do!"
Zhou Xiao smiled, stood up and stretched, walked over and stood beside Xue Ziqin, and said unhurriedly: "Anyway, it will spread throughout Xiangcheng in these two days."
Seeing this, Guo Linchong pondered Xue Ziqin's words carefully, and asked tentatively, "Could it be that...the general doesn't want to invite us to a wedding wine?"
Xue Ziqin was about to deny it, but Wei Lin followed suit and asked, "Do you not want us to see the bride?" He turned his head and asked Jiang Ye, "Have you seen the bride?"
Jiang also shook his head.
This is also the truth. If the Jiang family wants to participate in someone's happy event, it will be the old man who will come to congratulate him personally. He and Jiang Fang will definitely not go, so to be honest, he has never seen the bride look like.
"Stop booing, drink, drink, there is wedding wine." Xue Ziqin said impatiently, and then kicked Min Qiu who was kneeling on the ground, "Why are you still kneeling!"
Min Qiu immediately got up and looked at Zhou Xiao gratefully.
Zhou Xiao smiled, and said to Xue Ziqin again: "You see, it didn't take a day or two for these two to follow you through life and death. Now that they can rest, why don't they just stay in Xue's residence."
"I'm afraid the old man won't like it." Xue Ziqin thought for a while.
Zhou Xiao shook her head: "The Xue residence is so big, and there are so many people living there, the general won't care."
It makes sense to say so, Xue Ziqin nodded, and opened his mouth to call out: "Steward Zhang!"
Soon Steward Zhang came from the direction of the backyard: "Young General."
"Arrange them to live in the backyard."
"Yes."
The matter was decided in this way, but Jiang Ye showed embarrassment. He originally planned to go home to live, so he whispered to Xue Ziqin: "General, I was originally from Xiangcheng, and I planned to go home to live."
Xue Ziqin looked at Jiang Ye, but didn't answer his words, but said something else: "I haven't settled with you yet about your going to Hanzhou to save people without authorization."
"...Didn't it be said that the generals will be counted after they get married?"
"That's fine. The general will settle accounts with you after the fall. You can live here if you want to go back." After finishing speaking, Xue Ziqin lay back on the chair again, "What are you doing here? Walk around and follow Steward Zhang to rest. Don't get in the way." I bask in the sun."
Wei Lin tugged at Lajiang in a low voice and said, "Are you really going home?"
"Otherwise?" Jiang asked back.
Wei Lin stammered: "Either, or..."
"Or what?"
"Or should I go home with you?" Wei Lin asked cautiously.
Jiang also sneered: "The ugly daughter-in-law wants to see her in-laws?"
When he said that, Wei Lin was very dissatisfied: "This is called returning to the door in three dynasties, so naturally the son-in-law will come to the door."
Jiang also reached out to grab Wei Lin's ear, but Wei Lin dodged it. Wei Lin laughed and said, "The same trap, don't try to trick me three times!"
"You can go back with me, adoptive son or daughter-in-law, you choose."
Wei Lin thought about it for a while, and said: "Forget it, then you go back and see you." After speaking, Wei Lin quickly followed Min Qiu and Guo Linchong who had walked not far away, and turned around to rush to the river to do the same. grimace.
"Childish!" Jiang also cursed, then turned and walked towards the gate of Xue's mansion.
