I rely on the system to support my eighteen brothers and sisters
Chapter 335: Meeting an Old Man
Everyone's gaze was straightforward.
They are all saying, look, a man is here to look for your future daughter-in-law, why don't you go and take a look, otherwise the hat on your son's head will change color.
Mr. Meng looked at the steaming food on the table, then looked at the figure outside the tent. He was now wavering between food and reputation.
On the one hand, she wanted to eat something delicious to satisfy her taste buds, but on the other hand, she felt that she couldn't just deal with the man coming to see Qiao Linxi casually. Otherwise, people might gossip about her.
There were two little people pulling at Mr. Meng's mind.
"oops!"
He slapped his thigh and looked at his colleagues and superiors with resentment...
"I gonna go see."
Master Meng opened the tent, walked through one tent after another in the wind and snow, and finally arrived outside the camp.
Before I got close, I saw a slender figure standing in the snow. He was a little tall, and the servant holding the umbrella behind him had to stretch out his oil-paper umbrella to cover his head.
The man was wearing a lake blue gown and a crescent white cloak.
As you get closer, you can see the man's appearance. He doesn't have a good-looking face, but he is kind. He doesn't look outstanding, but you can see the word "peace of mind" in his regular facial features.
Mr. Meng's alarm bells immediately went off, thinking that this man might be the love rival of his good-for-nothing son.
That wouldn't do, Qiao Linxi was his future daughter-in-law. When his son was away, he had to keep all his love rivals out.
"you……"
"Cao Ming Li Liangbin meets the general."
"Hmm." Mr. Meng Er responded with a snort, and then asked with a bit of contempt: "What do you want to see Princess Dingguo about?"
"In reply to the general, I am an old friend of Miss Qiao, the Princess Dingguo. I heard that she was in charge of escorting the food and grass here, so I collected some supplies and sent them over, and also came to see the princess."
Li Liangbin still spoke in a gentle voice, and was not at all annoyed by Mr. Meng's tone.
"Old friend?" Mr. Meng pretended to be confused.
"Yes, I am the head of the Li family in Lanqing City. When the princess was still in Lanqing City, she had some friendship with me."
Master Meng knew where Lanqing City was. They had passed by it when they set out from the capital. There were many cities between Lanqing City and this place, at least more than 200 miles away.
Looking at the dozen or so carriages in the snow, Mr. Meng sighed. He could selfishly not let Li Liangbin go to call Qiao Linxi, but he couldn't selfishly block these dozen carriages of supplies.
This man looks gentle and refined, but I didn't expect him to be such a scheming person.
He must have known that if he came alone, he would not be able to enter the barracks. But it was different if he brought supplies.
At this moment, he happened to see a patrol team passing by, and Mr. Meng waved to the team.
The person who came was Meng Qingliang. Although he wanted to stay in the capital to build Qingyun Sect with Meng Qingyu and practice Qingyun swordsmanship, when the war started, as a military commander, the best position was to go to the battlefield, so he brought his people here.
"Qingliang, take your people to count these supplies, and register them if there is no problem."
Meng Qingliang received the order and led his men towards the dozen or so carriages. When he passed by Li Liangbin, he glanced sideways but did not speak. Instead, Li Liangbin nodded slightly at him.
"Come with me," Mr. Meng really didn't want to bring a stranger to meet his future daughter-in-law. But this man was too cunning.
Li Liangbin's servant wanted to go with them but was stopped outside, so he could only hold the umbrella by himself.
The two walked side by side towards the center of the camp.
The snow was still heavy, falling down rapidly, and soon, Master Meng was covered in white. Because the ground in the camp was sprinkled with salt, there was no snow except for some snow water.
Mr. Meng looked back at Li Liangbin who was following behind him. There were some black water stains on the edge of his crescent-white cloak. But he didn't seem to care and didn't frown.
Looking at the oil-paper umbrella in his hand, Mr. Meng cursed in his heart, "Why is a grown man holding an umbrella? How hypocritical."
After passing through one tent after another, we finally reached the center.
It only took Li Liangbin two quarters of an hour to get here from the camp gate, but he felt that this was the longest road he had ever walked. Even longer than the journey from Lanqing City to here.
He knew that Qiao Linxi had clearly rejected him, saying that there was no possibility for them to be together. However, after not seeing her for a year, he missed her like crazy.
The tent was getting closer and closer, and longing, excitement, anxiety, all human emotions surged like the sea and drowned him.
All kinds of emotions rushed into his heart, almost suffocating him, and his steps became heavier and heavier. He...actually felt a little timid.
The corners of Meng Erye's mouth suddenly rose in front of him. As a military commander, he had excellent hearing, so he naturally heard the rapid breathing and heavy footsteps of the person behind him.
This... he doesn't have enough physical strength. He was out of breath after walking just this short distance. His physical strength is not as good as his son's.
Although Meng Qingyu was not as steady as him, he was still physically strong. When he made a mistake when he was young, he ran all over the house without even taking a breath.
A man with good physical strength is also a blessing for a woman after marriage.
Ahem, I was thinking wrongly.
Master Meng collected his thoughts and stopped outside a tent.
"Princess, you have an old friend visiting you."
Li Liangbin could see four or five figures through the tent. Was the person that haunted him the one in there?
"Who?"
A crisp sound came from the tent.
Li Liangbin was stunned. This was not Qiao Linxi's voice.
Then, a white hand stretched out from the crack of the tent.
This is not Qiao Linxi's hand either.
The tent was opened, revealing a round-faced girl of about sixteen or seventeen years old.
Li Liangbin tightened his grip on the umbrella. This... is Princess Dingguo? Was he wrong?
Before this question popped up in his mind, Li Liangbin's gaze passed through the round-faced girl and saw three or four women sitting at the table in the tent.
Through the hazy heat, he accurately found the person he wanted to see.
Maybe it was because Qiao Linxi was dressed differently from the others, or maybe it was because she was too beautiful. It was hard not to notice her at first sight.
"Commoner Li Liangbin pays homage to the princess."
"Huh?" Qiao Linxi stood up from the chair in surprise and walked out. "Mr. Li, why are you here?"
"I, along with the magistrate of Lanqingcheng County, have prepared some supplies and sent them over to help in this battle."
"Come in, it's snowing hard outside."
Mr. Meng brought Li Liangbin to Qiao Linxi, but he did not leave. Instead, he followed him into the tent. He couldn't let his son's girlfriend be poached by others.
Li Liangbin exchanged pleasantries with Qiao Linxi for a while, and then he took out a box from under his cloak.
He said, "I bought this from a few merchants from Southeast Asia when they passed through Lanqing City some time ago. It is said to be used by the royal family of Southeast Asia, so I think the princess can use it."
