Shuo Mo squatted on the side, watching the fire carefully. The tea had been in the water for a while, and the faint fragrance overflowed. A few more charcoal fires were taken out.The old woman put the washed tea cups on the wooden tea tray on the table, and put a stack of freshly steamed osmanthus cakes.

"Will there be any guests coming?" Shuo Mo asked the old woman suspiciously, pointing to two empty teacups.

The old woman nodded and said, "That general will probably come back."

Shuo Mo clenched the cattail fan in his hand, and said sullenly: "Did the master tell you, or did you guess?"

The old woman smiled, she stood up slowly, walked past Shuo Mo, then seemed to remember something, she turned around and glanced at the child who was looking at Huohou.The child has grown a bit taller than when he first came here, and his body has become stronger. Hu people grow faster than people from the Central Plains. In a few days, Shuo Mo will almost reach Nan Yiyuan's shoulders.There was a trace of worry in the old woman's eyes, she knew the origin of this child, he had the blood of a barbarian in his body, the old woman was worried that one day Shuo Mo would raise a knife against Nan Yiyuan.

"Is there anything else?" As if feeling another pair of eyes staring at him from behind, Shuo Mo turned his head and asked the old woman.

Suddenly meeting Shuo Mo's eyes, the old woman gave a shiver, she hurriedly avoided Shuo Mo's gaze, turned around and shook her head: "It's nothing, you... look at some pastries, don't let the birds peck at them." Let's go." After saying that, the old woman left in a hurry.

The corner of Shuo Mo's mouth was drawn into a sharp line. He could tell that the old woman was afraid of him and guarded against him, but as long as Nan Yiyuan didn't despise him, other people had nothing to do with him.

"How could any bird dare to come in this yard." Shuo Mo continued to stare at the fire, with a cold smile spreading from the corner of his mouth.

As soon as the tea was brewed, the owner of the house came back.

Shuo Mo heard Nan Yiyuan's footsteps, just as the corners of his mouth were raised, he heard steady footsteps again, and the smile disappeared from his face in an instant.Shuo Mo put down his cattail fan, turned around, and bowed respectfully to Nan Yiyuan: "Sir." He pretended not to see Huangfu Zhuo who came with Nan Yiyuan, and turned around to continue taking care of the tea.

"The temper of this child is the same as yours, and he is arrogant." Huangfu Zhuo laughed and said to the people standing beside him.

Nan Yiyuan took a gouged look at the person standing beside him who was laughing heartlessly, and poked Huangfu Zhuo's waist with his elbow.Huangfu felt the pain, "Ouch", he clutched his waist and his face twisted together.

"I will take revenge." Nan Yiyuan left Huangfu Zhuo, went straight to the front, and sat down cross-legged.Two cups of tea were brewed on the table, Nan Yiyuan pushed one cup of tea to Shuo Mo, picked up the other cup and drank it down.When Huangfu Zhuo arrived, there was no cup of tea left.

Huangfu Zhuo didn't think he was a guest, he snatched the teapot from Shuo Mo's hand, picked up the tea cup that Nan Yiyuan drank with one hand, poured a cup of tea, and drank it in one gulp.Nan Yiyuan frowned, Huangfu Zhuo knew that he was obsessed with cleanliness, and even robbed him of his cup to use, isn't that the way to get revenge?

"I'll go get another cup for my husband." Seeing Nan Yiyuan's expression, Shuo Mo stood up to fetch a teacup for Nan Yiyuan, but before he could turn around, he grabbed onto his sleeve with a force , Shuo Mo struggled a few times, unable to break free from the opponent's shackles.

"By the way, prepare soft drinks for your husband, and bring the clothes he changed this morning." Huangfu Zhuo filled the teacup again, and handed it to Nan Yiyuan, grinning, while Say to Shuo Mo.

Shuo Mo was stunned, he looked sideways at Huangfu Zhuo, and wondered if Nan Yiyuan was going to leave Dongdu?

Seeing Shuo staring at him indifferently, Huangfu Zhuo let go of his hands and said, "I forgot, your husband hasn't told you yet." Nodding, "You and Aunt Chu will go back with me tonight and stay in my mansion for a while. I will send you back when your husband comes back."

"Sir, do you want to leave?" Shuo Mo's heart tightened, he was only a relative of Nan Yiyuan, afraid of being left behind.And... Shuo Mo was afraid of Huangfu Zhuo, if he lived with Huangfu Zhuo under the same roof, he would be worried all the time.

Nan Yiyuan was unwilling to leave Shuo Mo to Huangfu Zhuo's care. Huangfu Zhuo seemed wary of Shuo Mo, and he offered to take care of Shuo Mo. Nan Yiyuan had to think that Huangfu Zhuo had "bad intentions".However, he has known Huangfu Zhuo since childhood, he is very clear about Huangfu Zhuo's behavior, and Huangfu Zhuo should treat Shuo Mo well.Giving Shuo Mo to Huangfu Zhuo's care will save Nan Yiyuan from worrying.

"I'll be back in half a month at most. I can rest assured that General Huangfu will take care of you." Nan Yiyuan stroked the teacup with his fingers, and finally drank the tea in Huangfuzhuo's used teacup.

Shuo Mo knew that Nan Yiyuan had already made a decision, since Nan Yiyuan believed in Huangfu Zhuo, he would not make things difficult for Nan Yiyuan.Shuo Mo casually raised his hand at Huangfu Zhuo, and went into the backyard.

Nan Yiyuan put down his teacup, glanced at Huangfu Zhuo: "What is your plan?"

"Who are you talking about?" Huangfu Zhuo asked knowingly.

"Shuo Mo," Nan Yiyuan took a piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake and handed it to Huangfu Zhuo. He had already seen that Huangfu Zhuo was on guard against Shuo Mo. Huangfu Zhuo's defense against Shuo Mo was not because Shuo Mo was a Spike Army, but Nan Yiyuan. Yi Yuan also couldn't understand what Huangfu Zhuo was guarding against Shuo Mo, "You are wary of him."

"Ha..." Huangfu Zhuo didn't go to pick up the pastries handed over by Nan Yiyuan, he suddenly clapped his hands and laughed, "You really didn't see it?"

Nan Yiyuan frowned, then shook his head, he didn't know what Huangfu Zhuo was thinking.

"Forget it, he's still a child after all, and it's no fun for me to argue with a child." Huangfu Zhuo shook his head mockingly as if he had suddenly figured it out.

Nan Yiyuan was confused by Huangfu Zhuo's actions, since Huangfu Zhuo knew that Shuo Mo was a child, what else could he care about?

"However, children will grow up after all." Huangfu Zhuo added inexplicably.

If Nan Yiyuan didn't care about the sweet-scented osmanthus cake made by Aunt Chu, he would have dumped a stack of sweet-scented osmanthus cakes on Huangfu Zhuo's face, blocking the man's unpredictable smile.

As soon as the chariot was parked outside the house, Nan Yiyuan made an appointment with Shuo Mo and Aunt Chu, and jumped into the chariot without saying hello to Huangfu Zhuo.A man holding a dust whisk was already sitting in the car, Nan Yiyuan saluted Li Bi, and then got into the car.

The carriage headed south along Dingdingmen Street, and when the afterglow of the setting sun was about to fall, it drove out of Luoyang City and headed south in the dark.

At the same time, Shuo Mo was reluctantly following Huangfu Zhuo towards the Cangyun Army Commander's Mansion on the south side of Dingdingmen Street.

In Luoyang City at night, there were only the footsteps of Yu Shuofang's army and Huihe soldiers, and there were no other sounds.
