The General's Favorite Wife Strategy
Chapter 47
"Ma'am, everything is ready." Wang Meng was left to protect Shen Chen, but now he betrayed the general and prepared the carriage for him.
The sun has just come out, and the winter sun has no warmth.When it shone on Shen Chen's face, it seemed to cover him with a layer of golden frost.Wang Meng hesitated for a while, and asked, "Why does Madam have to leave? Hasn't the general already promised?"
Shen Chen smiled as he walked: "Because I'm afraid, no matter how powerful the general is, he's still alone. How can one person's strength compare with the world's people? As long as the general wants to sit in that position, I have to go."
After all, Shen Chen still didn't want to be the target of public criticism.The person next to No.1 in the world can be a woman selling laughter in a brothel, or a beggar on the street, but it cannot be a man.Shen Chen didn't want to be ridiculed by the world for the rest of his life, nor did he want Zhan Yang to be criticized by the world because of him.
"But, but Ma'am, are you... willing?" Wang Meng looked a little childish now, his brows were tightly frowned.
"Oh, so what if you are reluctant, I can't change the status quo, I can change myself. There is nothing you can't forget, no matter how painful the injury is, it won't hurt after a long time." Shen Chen jumped into the carriage and asked Wang Meng: "Come with me? If you don't go, the general will come back and spank your ass."
A carriage rushed out of the barracks quickly but no one dared to stop it, Rong Jingsheng watched the carriage drifting away and let out a long sigh, "Oh, what is love in the world!"
It is rare for Zhan Yang to have a smile that everyone can see. He hurried back to the barracks, and what he saw was an empty tent and a familiar black gold dagger on the table.Under the short knife was a piece of war paper, with a few simple words written on it: Farewell, never see each other again.Don't look for it, don't read it, may you be well!
The few people who followed excitedly also saw the note, and the fat man was stunned for a long time, then suddenly turned and ran out: "My □□ ancestor, Xiao Tianzhen, what do you mean!"
"Come back!" Zhan Yang shouted, the fat man stopped in resentment, turned his head and yelled at him, "General, give the order, I will help you catch him back!"
Zhan Yang looked down at the note in his hand and didn't move it for a long time. Although the blind man didn't speak, he looked at him worriedly.After a long, long time, Zhan Yang slowly put away the note and the black gold knife, and said very tiredly: "Forget it, let's all go to rest."
"What?" The fat man came back in disbelief: "The general just let Madam go like that? You just let him go like that?" His eyes were wide open, and he was panting.
At this moment, Zhan Yang couldn't see any expression on his face, he glanced at the fat man lightly, and said coldly: "He wants to leave, why keep him?"
"You...Okay, okay, that's yours, why don't you mess with me if you don't keep me?" The fat man laughed back angrily, waved his sleeves and left.
The blind man came forward and patted Zhan Yang on the shoulder, silently comforting him.
Everyone left, and the tent returned to silence.Zhan Yang slowly took out the folded note, and slowly opened it bit by bit, "Never see each other" he muttered the words on it, "Don't look for..."
Tick-tick-tears smeared the handwriting, and the heartache could not be conveyed.
Kangjin Village is actually not a village, but a small town.There are not many permanent residents in the town, but because there is a ferry, the town is also very lively.The town is a typical water town in the south of the Yangtze River. A small river flows along the edge of the town and converges into the big river a little far away.The town is divided into two parts by this small river. The part close to the big river is bustling and bustling, where all kinds of shops gather.On the other side of the small river are residential houses with white walls and blue tiles, and the deep alleys are like huge spider webs of World War I, connecting every household.
Among them, a new family arrived at the foot of the mountain two years ago. It seems to be a big family from somewhere, and they brought their servants and housekeepers here.The young boy was working as a teacher in a private school in a small town, and the old lady opened a dim sum shop in the town. There was a boy with a round face and round eyes to help, and the business was good.This family is easy-going and popular in the town, and the family lives well.
The courtyard door with "Shen's Mansion" hanging on it opened, and a Mr. Qingjuan came out, grinning and holding the door panel, and said to the humanity inside: "Butler, you just admit it, Uncle Rong is doing it for your own good too!" Close the door and walk towards the school.
The old butler put down his broom, pinched his waist and looked at the gate panting: "Madam really failed at learning, you must have taught me!" He turned his head and glared at the simple and honest man behind him.
Rong Jingsheng foolishly scratched his short hair, and smiled honestly: "I didn't teach it, it was Madam who taught me."
"You!" The old housekeeper became angry and decided not to argue with this old man.Throwing the broom into Rong Jingsheng's arms, he went into the kitchen angrily to study his cooking skills.Rong Jingsheng was not angry either, he followed in with a broom and a smile.
The day in the small courtyard began in the noisy room between the housekeeper and Shen Chen. Shen Chen opened the door and came out, doing a set of Tai Chi slowly in the courtyard. When the momentum was closed, Mrs. Shen just came out, followed by the young and mature Wang Meng.Shen Chen walked up quickly to take the things from Mrs. Shen, and the old couple walked slowly towards the pastry shop to start their day's business.
On this day, the life in Xiaoyuan is no different from the past.
After school, Shen Chen stayed behind as usual to copy books with several other teachers in the private school, or organize other books.They are all scholars, and the content of their daily conversations is nothing more than the things in the world.
"Now the world has finally settled down. I heard that a concubine is going to be chosen a few days ago."
"No wonder Mr. Li is smiling all day long. It seems that his young lady has been chosen?"
Sometimes, the most boring are these scholars.Except for Shen Chen, everyone here is a family member, so the topic turned to Shen Chen.
The oldest teacher in the private school smiled and asked the silent Shen Chen: "Xiao Shen is not young anymore, can the family help with the preparations for the wedding?"
Shen Chen smiled, not intending to have an in-depth discussion on this issue: "The family conditions are not good, and I don't want to wrong the girl's family, so let's talk slowly first."
The people in the town only know that the Shen family used to be a big family, and this can be guessed just by looking at the family's demeanor.But why a big family would fall to this point, they don't know.But seeing the Shen family's low-key behavior, everyone speculated that they offended the people above and were released.
Seeing what Shen Chen said, the gentlemen couldn't say anything more, and the topic changed after a while.
Shen Chen lowered his head and sorted out the rare books he bought from a small vendor a few days ago, but his mind went to other places.He has been away for two years, and he doesn't need to pay special attention to know about Zhan Yang.I heard that General Zhan helped a certain prince obtain the throne and helped him consolidate his position.Hearing that General Zhan has made countless military exploits, he is not arrogant or impetuous, and the world can learn from his loyalty.
Everyone knows that General Zhan is brave and good at fighting, he doesn't covet power, doesn't bully the weak, doesn't love money and doesn't like women, he is really a good general praised by everyone.Listening to the people around him talking about those things, Shen Chen seemed like a lifetime away.It turned out that Zhan Yang was such a dazzling person in the eyes of the common people.
"Sir, there is something to do at home today, the student will go first."
When I left the private school, it was the time when the sun was setting.In the evening, the small town in the south of the Yangtze River was shrouded in a soft light. Walking on the bluestone streets, seeing the red lanterns lit up in twos and threes on both sides of the road, Shen Chen felt light for no reason.
Think of it as a dream. When you wake up, you find that your parents are still alive, and the family is living a warm and not-so-rich life. There is nothing more perfect in life than this.
I bought a jug of wine at the restaurant by the bridge. Today is the anniversary of my family moving to Kangjin.The butler must have prepared a whole table of exquisite dishes. Thinking of the funny thing about the butler getting drunk and trying to sing an opera a year ago, Shen Chen smiled.Indulging in good memories, he didn't realize that there was a pair of eyes looking at him in the alley he passed just now.
"I'm back." Shen Chen pushed open the door, and the courtyard was indeed very lively.
"Son, come here, today mother made you your favorite dessert." Mrs. Shen was dressed like a village woman, her clothes were simple but neat and elegant.Compared to when she was in the capital, her complexion was actually better.
Shen Chen first went back to the room to put down the scroll, washed his hands, and sat at the table: "Who won?" In the yard, Wang Meng and Rong Jingsheng were competing in martial arts, and it seemed that they were evenly matched.
Mrs. Shen put a piece of dim sum in his bowl, with a loving smile on her brows and eyes: "Wang Meng won once before, but the steward was not happy, and now the second competition begins."
Shen Chen heard the words and looked over, and sure enough, the butler stepped on the stool indignantly, pinched his waist with one hand and shook his fist and yelled at Wang Meng.Shen Chen shook his head and sighed with a smile, the housekeeper is really childish, he always likes to bully Uncle Rong, but if others dare to bully Uncle Rong, he will definitely be the first to shout for revenge.
"Today's work is going well." Shen Chen said lightly.
"I helped my husband sort out the rare books today. The books are not well preserved. It may take a few days to finish." Shen Chen smiled and replied respectfully.
Mrs. Shen was unhappy, she pinched Shen Chen, and said angrily: "You think you are still Mr. Shen, you are now a farmer in a mountain village, who will listen to your polite words?"
The habit of half a lifetime is not easy to change, Shen Chen coughed uncomfortably, his cheeks turned red, and said softly: "It's not... I'm used to it."
Seeing the love and affection of the parents, seeing the housekeeper and the others happy, Shen Chen smiled and drank a glass of wine, this day really has no regrets.
The next day, Shen Chen got up top-heavy. He really shouldn't have drunk so much wine yesterday, and he still has to go to teach today. I hope nothing wrong will happen.He opened the door, and just stepped out when he tripped over a soft object.
