Rebirth of a Star General - Chapter 148

Chapter 148

On the way back, He Yan kept looking at the flower basket in Chu Zhao’s hand.

This flower basket looks very beautiful. The peddler wrote the word “Zilan” with great care, and his writing is elegant and dusty, and it is placed in one place with the fragrance in the flower basket, which really complements each other.

“Brother Chu must eat it earlier when he goes back.” He Yan said, “Otherwise, the weather in Jiyang should melt away soon.” She also bought a unicorn-like look, which has already been eaten. I’ve tasted it. It tastes good and not too sweet.”

Chu Zhao smiled softly, “Thank you Ahe, I will be very careful when I go back.”

He Yan relieved now.

After they bought the sugar painting, they walked back along the river bank. When there was nothing to say, He Yan asked Xu Zhiheng occasionally.

“Brother Chu went back to attend a friend’s wedding banquet last time, how was it? Was it very lively?”

Chu Zhao was startled slightly, and then smiled and replied: “Well, it’s very lively. After all, it’s General Feihong’s sister. His Royal Highness also came to congratulate him personally.”

This makes He Yan a little suspicious, His Royal Highness? The prince came to see Xu Zhiheng marrying a wife, was it for Xu Zhiheng, He Rufei, or both? Is the prince also involved in the conspiracy between the He family and the Xu family? What’s more, the prince also knows her identity?

“But…” Chu Zhao sighed again: “Uncle Xu Xu was affectionate for his deceased wife, and he shed tears during the wedding banquet.”

He Yan: “Huh?”

Xu was filled with disbelief on her face, and Chu Zhao was also a little bit ridiculous: “What’s the matter? Do you not believe that there are affectionate men in the world?”

He Yan said in his heart that she certainly believed that there were affectionate men in the world, such as her current Daddy Hesui. After the death of Mrs. He, she brought up the two children alone. Miss He is so arrogant, He Sui can spoil and indulge the little girl because she looks like a wife. It can be seen that there must be that kind of loveless people in the world. But this person can be anyone, and it will definitely not be Xu Zhiheng.

“It’s not that I don’t believe it,” He Yan sneered while covering his eyes, “It’s just that he is like this, isn’t the newly married lady angry?”

“The grandmother Xu now has a very kind and innocent heart. Seeing that Uncle Xu is sad, she has red eyes.” Chu Zhao said: “Not only is she not angry, she also feels empathy. It provokes General Feihong and other He family members. I am very empathetic. So, the excitement is the excitement. It is this wedding banquet, which is a bit sad.”

He Yan felt that among the many jokes he heard this year, the one Chu Zhao said was the funniest right now. Will the He family feel sad for her? Speaking of this to the pigs in the pigsty, the pigs will feel that their brains have been insulted. But Chu Zhao’s expression when talking about it, obviously most people think that way.

If you do something bad, you will do it, but after you have done it, you have to pull out a pitiful look of mourning and weeping, pretending to be a rare and righteous poor person in the world, which is really disgusting.

“Ahe seems to disagree with what Lai Xia said?” Chu Zhao paid attention to her expression.

He Yan smiled and said, “It’s nothing, I just think this Uncle Xu is quite interesting.”

“What’s the answer to this?”

“If it is true love, and never forget to send his wife, even if his majesty personally gave the marriage, he wants to refuse or can refuse. After all, he is a man,” He Yan mocked: “If it is a woman, it is common to not be able to decide his marriage. Brother Chu. I’ve heard of the son of a forcible takeover, a bully who forced a good for a prostitution, and a father of a beast who sells daughters for glory, have you ever heard of a woman who does this?”

“I heard what Brother Chu said just now, that Uncle Xu looks like a weak woman who was forced to get married, and the newly married Grandma Xu seems to force him to marry her own wicked person. What does this mean? He doesn’t want to. No one can take him to Xitang when he gets married. He doesn’t want to have a bridal chamber. Could it be that Grandma Xu can still take it? The marriage is closed, and he will still be addicted to the’dead wife’ in the future, and how can the new Grandma Xu deal with himself? I think it’s not fair to that one, and this friend of Brother Chu’s is also a bit hypocritical.”

She was not polite. He Xinying is her sister from the same father and mother. Even though she hates the He family very much, He Xinying has not done anything to her. He Yan has no way to love her, nor can he hate her. , Can only treat her as a stranger.

Anyone who is sober, hearing this, will only feel that Xu Zhiheng is more wrong. The He family destroyed one not enough, and one more victim was sent in.

How cold-blooded, it’s ridiculous.

Chu Zhao was stunned for a while, then suddenly smiled, stopped, and said to He Yan: “Is it narrow-minded, or Brother He, as a woman, can empathize from a woman’s standpoint.”

“It’s just that no one thought about standing on their side.”

“Ahe is very different from ordinary women.”

He Yan looked at her: “Where is it different?”

Chu Zhao continued to walk forward, his voice still soft: “Most women, even in the face of such a predicament, are already numb and indifferent. They don’t think so much like Ahe. Ahe is thinking about them at the moment, extremely Possibly, they enjoy it, and they will blame you for your nosy.”

He Yan smiled: “Brother Chu’s words sounded a little high.”

Chu Zhao smiled slightly, “Why did you say this?”

“The imperial court is the imperial court of men, and the major events in the world are the major events in the world for men. Even when studying and going to the battlefield, men are unique. The praises of men are heroes, but the praises of women are at most beauties. It’s so unreasonable. After doing all the cheapness in the world, but in turn blame the woman for being numb in her thinking and not thinking about making progress. Isn’t this what it means to be superior?”

“Brother Chu thinks that I am very different from ordinary women because I have read books, walked out of the house, and even went into the barracks. There are not many women like me in the world. But if you let those women do the same In general, I have seen the snow in Liangzhouwei, the water in Jiyang City, the long moon in the desert, and the mountains and rivers in the desert. Do you think they will be willing to be trapped in a jealous house? Will they be complacent? , Numbness and ignorance?”

He Yan smiled. At this moment, her smile was somewhat ridiculed, and she was somewhat similar to Xiao Jue: “I think the men in the world are worried about this, so they set out many ridiculous rules to restrain them. Women, use the three guides and five constants to break their wings, and use those unnecessarily “wise wives and beauties” to judge them. The more stupid they are, the more relieved the men are. It is clearly caused by them, but they still have to say, “Look at it.” , The woman is superficial’!”

“Because they also know that once the women have the opportunity to’choose’, they are determined not to become a vase in the back home waiting for their husband to feed. Those excellent women will become generals, knights, and scribes. , Become an aide, and compete with them for the world’s elegance, but they may not be able to win.”

In the girl’s eyes, the clear and lingering water is like the spring water of Jiyang City, transparent and clear, clearly visible, clean and translucent, as if reflecting the brightest sunlight.

Chu Zhao was stunned for a moment. He who has always been able to talk and wouldn’t make the atmosphere embarrassing, he didn’t know what to say at this moment. It seems that nothing can be said to refute the person in front of him. The justice is ridiculous, uncontrollable, and naive and unpleasant, but it shines in the shadow of human beings, so dark and invisible.

He Yan’s heart is also unfair.

Pretending to be “He Rufei”, although it brought a lot of pain to her life, at the same time, it also taught her to have seen many scenery that a woman would never see in her life. If it weren’t for pretending to be “He Rufei”, she wouldn’t know that there are so many things that men can do compared to women. If you have literary talents, you can be a bachelor full of scriptures. Even if everything is mediocre, I can still be the most ordinary ordinary person on the street. To put it bluntly, even in Letong Village, women are gambling prostitutes, and men are gamblers.

It is precisely because she later became a “grand Xu” who was a man and a woman at the same time, she knew that the world treats men and women so differently. It is not that men do not suffer hardship, but their hardship can be the cornerstone of their own judgment. And women’s hardships have been waiting for men’s affirmation all their lives.

Obviously all are reincarnated as human beings, who is more noble than whom? It is ridiculous that some men still look down on girls in their hearts, and teach others speechlessly.

After she finished speaking in one breath, she found that Chu Zhao hadn’t spoken for a while, and she thought to herself, could it be that these words offended Chu Zhao?

But when I think about it, I am offended. Anyway, he has no power to bind the chicken, even if it is a fight, it is impossible to beat himself.

“Brother Chu, what I said just now is too impatient.” He Yan smiled: “I hope Brother Chu will not care about my rudeness.”

“No,” Chu Zhao looked at her, with a strange color added: “Ahe’s heart is admirable, and Chu Zhao is ashamed. From now on, he will never say such a false statement as it is today. If Ahe, I will always keep it in my heart.”

Chu Zhao is really good-mannered. She cracked and said a lot just now. He was still gentle and gentle with Ruo Chunfeng.

He Yan smiled: “Then let’s go quickly.”

Chu Zhao nodded and smiled in response.

The two continued to walk back to the Cui Mansion, He Yan lowered his head and sighed in his heart.

Chu Zhao and Xiao Jue are different after all. When dealing with women, they also think that women are weak and cannot protect themselves. However, the former’s judgment contained a trace of negation and condescending, while the latter, as you can see from the treatment of the female corpse in the backyard of the Sun family in Liangzhou City, more, it was pity.

Those who are generals should be magnanimous and upright, calm and heroic, but the more important character is a pity for the weak.

…

When He Yan and Chu Zhao came back, it was already very late. The courtyard where Chu Zhao lives is farther than that of He Yan. When he reached the door, Chu Zhao said, “Ahe also rest early today.”

“Brother Chu, remember to eat as soon as possible.” He Yan was still thinking about his flower basket candy painting, and exhorted.

He looked at the flower basket in his hand, shook his head and smiled: “Definitely.”

He Yan watched him leave, then turned around and wanted to go back to the house. When he turned his head, he saw a person standing in the small pavilion under the corridor, watching her laugh. The white dress was flowing, it was Liu Buwang.

“Master hasn’t rested yet?” He Yan walked over and asked. In these days and nights, she rarely sees Liu Bu-forget.

“Come out and breathe.” Liu Bulong looked at her, “Going to buy sugar paintings?”

He Yan nodded: “The Fourth Young Master Chu concealed his identity for me. After thinking about it, he gave him something. If he is soft, he is not good at telling my secrets everywhere. Jiyang city sugar paintings are quite cheap, so I gave them. He is one of the most expensive, at least ten cents in Shuojing, and only eight cents here. It’s cheap and good quality.”

Liu Buwang smiled and looked at her and said, “Ahe, you are a lot more lively now than in the past.”

He Yan was startled.

When she met Liu Buwang in her previous life, it was the most difficult time. Only after escaping from the days when Shuojing was stable, came to the cruel and iron-blooded barracks, which contained many secrets. Therefore, he always acted with some caution. Even though he and Liu Bu-forgotten on the mountain later, occasionally showing his presumptuous side, most of the time, he always tried not to cause trouble to others.

Thinking about it now, it seems that since beating her to become “Miss He Da”, she has unknowingly let go. Today and Chu Zhao go to the streets to buy sugar paintings, which was impossible in the past.

Is it because she is a woman now, or because she is free of the restraints of the He family, she can do whatever she wants, without worrying about being peeped under the mask?

“Is this bad now?” He Yan said with a grin, “It doesn’t have to be steady.”

Liu Bulong said, “This is great.”

When he said this, his expression was a little sad, and he didn’t know what he was thinking. He Yan wanted to ask, and when he saw Liu Buwang’s indifferent gaze, he swallowed back.

Liu Buwang seemed a little sad.

The moon in spring is not as bright, hazy, and cute as in autumn. Liu Buwang’s gaze fell on the corner of the little apprentice’s puckered mouth, but another figure floated in his mind.

Mu Hongjin.

The same was true for Mu Hongjin back then. Her eyes were clean and clear, and she occasionally passed a trace of wisdom. Her red dress was also delicate, always embroidering flowers and birds on the corners of the skirt, exquisite and arrogant. The girl always wears two long hairs, and her braids are adorned with silver bells. When she walks, the bells make a sweet, ding-ding-dong-dong. Sometimes I knew she was coming when I heard the ringing of the bell before I approached.

He was really annoying with such a tail around him every day. I have said many times that I hope that the two of them will part ways. Every time Mu Hongjin’s mouth is flat and he wants to cry immediately. Liu Buqiang is not good at dealing with the girl’s tears even though his heart is as hard as iron. So she was easily resolved every time, and in the end, she had already assumed that this person was a brown candy that could not be shaken off, and let her stay with her to cause trouble for herself.

Mu Hongjin can enjoy it very much. He obviously brought a generous amount of silver, and he squandered it in less than half a month. At that time, Liu Buyang didn’t even know that Mu Hongjin was the beloved daughter of King Mengji, and he was full of contempt for her arrogant and lustful life. She didn’t care how Liu Buwang looked at herself, and she wanted to let him enjoy it with her.

After half a month, Mu Hongjin’s money was gone, and he had to eat chaanyancai with Liu Buwang.

The inn, sleeps in the simplest kind, and the meals and eating are also very ordinary. Without the money to buy gadgets on the street, Mu Hongjin persisted for a long time, protesting to Liu Buwang: “Young man, can we have a good meal?”

“can not.”

Liu Buqiang didn’t have much money, and the seven disciples of Taoist Yunji went down to the mountain to practice. They were talking about going down the mountain to practice, but in fact they were just experiencing the mundane world. As for what he did on weekdays, it was the work that the brothers had received earlier to give him a little bit, to make it clearer, and to take people’s money and money to help people eliminate disasters. It’s just that they can’t do evil or go into the camp, so that what they really do in the end is to “help the tenants of Zhuangzi find the lost sheep” and “send a secret letter to the married girl to return to her natal family.” Also take very few. Sometimes I even have to write letters for people to write home letters.

A cold and dusty white-clothed youth led a lost sheep along the trail of Zhuangzi. The picture was a bit funny. Mu Hongjin laughed at him: “What kind of teacher are you? How can you do everything? It’s better. Follow me, I…”

“What are you?” Liu Bu Wang asked her angrily.

“I…” Mu Hongjin looked beautifully, “I paid you more than he paid you!”

Liu didn’t forget to speak with anger.

But that was indeed the case, after all, the task assigned to him by the brother hadn’t finished yet. Precisely because all these small things are done, the money is scarce. If he were alone, it would be okay, but now Mu Hongjin followed and spent his own money again, and turned into two people, inn, eating…The life was too stretched, and he could not wait to split the penny in half to spend.

It can be seen that Mu Hongjin is also trying his best to adapt to this rough life. She made a fuss for a few days, but when she saw Liu Buwang was really angry, she didn’t dare to say anything. Live a life of rough tea and light rice with Liu Buwang honestly.

But her habit of wanting to buy everything in her bones remained the same.

Liu Buwang remembered that one day they met an old woman selling flowers at a tea shop outside Jiyang city. There were two bamboo baskets and a pole in front of the old woman. The bamboo baskets were full of wild chrysanthemums. Slim and lovely, pale pink and white. It is also very cheap and should be picked directly from the foot of Qiyun Mountain.

Mu Hongjin leaned over to see, the old woman saw this and smiled: “Little son, buy a flower for the girl to wear.”

“No need.”

“Okay, okay!”

The two said at the same time, Liu Buwang gave Mu Hongjin a warning look, Mu Hongjin’s aggrieved flat mouth. The old woman laughed instead, and she picked one from the bamboo basket and gave it to Mu Hongjin: “The girl is handsome, and this flower is for you. Wearing it on her head, it looks very beautiful!”

Mu Hongjin took it happily, her mouth was sweet, and she called out with a smile: “Thank you, mother-in-law!”

In this case, Liu Buwang wouldn’t be able to leave directly, so he took out a penny from his sleeve and handed it to the old woman.

“Don’t don’t.” The old woman looked at him with a smile: “The little girl is cute, and the old lady likes it. The son will treat her better in the future.”

Liu Buwang turned his head, Mu Hongjin got a flower, and she wore it in her ear with delight, and asked Liu Buwang, “Does it look good?”

Liu Buyun said uncomfortably, “It has nothing to do with me.”

Mu Hongjin glared at him, squatted down and looked at the jewellery powder in the pole. For a moment, he picked out a silver bracelet from it and exclaimed: “This looks good!”

A very simple silver bracelet seems to be rough polished by the person himself, and even the edges are not very smooth. On the side of the bracelet, a circle of vivid wild chrysanthemums is carved, so it looks fresh and lovely.

“This is so beautiful!” Mu Hongjin praised.

“This is called a Yuexin bracelet, which was carved by the old lady and husband together.” The old woman smiled: “Give one to the sweetheart to wear on your hand, and you will never be separated in your life. Why don’t you buy one for the girl? For a long time.”

“Have you heard, Shaoxia Liu,” Mu Hongjin begged, “Send me one quickly!”

Liu Buwang looked at her coldly, snatched the silver bracelet from her hand and put it back on the pole before saying coldly to the old woman: “She is not my sweetheart.”

A trace of loss flashed in Mu Hongjin’s eyes. After all, he didn’t go to get the silver bracelet again, and mumbled: “How do you know that I am not your sweetheart.”

how do you know.

Yeah, how does he know.

The pride of a young man, who does not understand the joy of youth, comes silently.

After many years passed, Liu Buwang always thought, if that day, he bought the silver bracelet in front of Mu Hongjin and put it on her hand, would they not go to the other side? One step, as the old woman said, will never be separated for life.

It is ridiculous that he also believes in strange power and chaos, and is destined.

The moonlight fell on the ground, and a layer of hoarfrost fell, and the sound of the bells in the memory gradually disappeared, and the only thing that fell in my ears was the sound of the wind in Jiyang City after many years, lonely and lonely, and a little bit cold in people’s hearts.

“Do you like Xiao Jue?”

The cold voice interrupted He Yan’s contemplation. He Yan turned his head to look in surprise. Liu Buchang retracted his gaze and looked at her with a clear smile. He repeated it again: “Ahe, do you like Xiao Jue?”

“…No.” He Yan retorted subconsciously. After a while, he asked: “Why does the master say that?”

“Didn’t you find out,” Liu Buwang said indifferently: “When you are by his side, you are very relaxed. You trust him more than you trust me.”

He Yan was startled, does she have it?

It may be. Whether it is in her previous life or in this life, there may be many misunderstandings about the appearance of Xiao Jue in her heart, whether it is indifferent or bad, but from the beginning to the end, she never doubted that Xiao Jue would hurt herself. He Yan, who seemed to be careless about everything, remained vigilant from the bottom of his heart. This vigilance will not be lifted when facing Liu Buwang of the year, when facing Xu Zhiheng, not when facing He Rufei, and even he has no attack power against the He family. The He Sui father and son still existed.

But for Xiao Jue, she always trusted.

“It’s not time or experience that makes you so easy now. It’s him.” Liu Bulong’s voice was gentle, “Ahe, do you want to deny it?”

He Yan did not speak.

After a while, she raised her head and looked at the moon hanging on the roof. The moon was big and white, and silver light spread all over the yard, watching the people in the night tenderly.

“Master, look at the moon in the sky,” she slowly said, “the backyard of the rich and the rich and the ditches in the graveyard can be illuminated. But you can’t catch it, can you?”

“I can neither catch the moon nor let the moon come for me, so I just stand here and look at it from a distance.”
