When the old man saw this, he quickly waved his hand and declined.
"Sir, this, this is really too much, I can't accept it-"
At this time, silver was still a luxury item for the upper class and was not accessible to ordinary people. What they used daily was basically copper coins. Therefore, the small piece of broken silver that Wang Zi'an took out was already valuable in the eyes of the old boatman.
Not cheap.
"It's okay, just take it..."
Today's copper coins are too inconvenient to carry around, and he doesn't like to carry around a boy who is responsible for carrying money. Later, he simply had some silver ingots melted to make small pieces of broken silver, which he used in daily life.
Come and spend.
The old boatman stepped forward to take it with great gratitude, turned around and jumped onto the bow of the boat, holding on to the long pole, and left happily.
In the distance, the old boatman's deep but weak singing voice came from Qujiang Pond.
"The rolling waters of the Yangtze River pass eastward, and the waves wash away the heroes. Right and wrong, success or failure, are all gone. The green mountains are still there, and the sunset is red a few times. The white-haired fisherman on the river is used to watching the autumn moon and the spring breeze. A pot of turbid wine happily meets. So many things in ancient and modern times.
, all in laughter..."
With the popularity of "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", this song "Linjiang Fairy" has become well-known.
Someone has already composed music and performed for it, and it has become a divine song that even young village women and white-haired old men can sing a few lines on the streets. Of course, with the singing of "Linjiang Immortal", Wang Zi'an, the most talented man in the Tang Dynasty,
The name is becoming more and more popular among people.
Turning around, he saw Kong Ling'er standing aside happily, waiting for him.
"Ling'er also likes Master's song "Linjiang Fairy" very much..."
Wang Zi'an smiled and waved.
"It's just picking up people's wits..."
Seeing how modest he was, Kong Linger smiled without hiding her mouth.
After seeing off Kong Ling'er, Wang Zi'an set off to return home. However, before he entered the house, he saw Wang Meng sneaking out of the concierge. He took the reins from Wang Zi'an's hand skillfully and said in a low voice.
.
"Hey——Master Hou, why are you back?"
Wang Zi’an:……
Stopping, Wang Zi'an looked him up and down.
Wang Meng subconsciously shrank his head.
"Yes, it was the two uncles who said that you and the young lady from the Kong family went out to swim in the lake alone, and I'm afraid you won't be back tonight..."
Wang Zi’an:!!!!!!
Wang Meng was holding the horse from behind, but he didn't notice that his master's expression was different. He was so happy that he even held the horse and did not forget to give Wang Zi'an a sincere bow behind his butt.
"Master Hou is indeed worthy of being the most romantic and talented person in Chang'an. Miss Kong, you can easily win over such a person who is like a god! If I had your qualifications, I wouldn't have failed to win today."
A daughter-in-law, you can teach me later...Hey, Lord Marquis, Lord Marquis, where are you going so fast..."
Looking at Wang Zi'an who disappeared in a blink of an eye, Wang Meng scratched his scalp, feeling that something was wrong with his Marquis today.
Inner house.
East Cross Courtyard.
Looking at Wang Zi'an who appeared in front of them in just a flash, Cheng Chuliang and Cheng Chumo were startled at first. When they realized it was Wang Zi'an, they came up to him with a wink.
"How about it, brother-in-law, has a good thing come true..."
Wang Zi’an: Haha——
He looked at the two of them with a smile on his face.
"Come here and let my brother-in-law teach you your boxing and kicking skills..."
Cheng Chumo and Cheng Chuliang were a bit reckless, but after so many years of being beaten and beaten by their fathers, they had gained experience. At this time, they realized something was wrong. They shrunk their necks and wanted to grease their soles and slip out.
As a result, Wang Zi'an stretched out his hand and picked them up one by one like chickens.
"Master, Master, we were wrong, we were wrong, let's change it next time..."
At the critical moment, brothers Cheng Chumo and Cheng Chuliang did not hesitate.
"No, what are you doing wrong? You are right! Don't be nervous. I don't want to do anything to you. I just want to fulfill my responsibility as a master, lest my father-in-law say that I am idle every day and just mess with other people's children.
Girl, I don’t want to teach you Kung Fu carefully..."
Cheng Chumo and Cheng Chuliang:...
The two knew the situation was over.
I have already begun to think about how loud I should use my voice when I scream, so that my good brother-in-law can relieve his anger and at the same time attract the attention of my sister...
A quarter of an hour later, the two of them limped out of their small courtyard with bared teeth.
His face was unscathed.
It was a miscalculation. They never expected that their brother-in-law would be so cunning. As soon as he made a move, he would remove their jaws first. They had no chance to scream in agony.
"Hey, you two gentlemen, what's wrong with your legs..."
Cheng Chumo twitched his lips and stared.
"My legs are cramped..."
"Okay, okay, okay, of course, of course..."
Wang Meng kept moving out of the way for his two uncles. Suddenly he slapped his forehead again, remembered something, and waved his hands and shouted from behind.
"Two uncles, don't you think so? Do you want me to ask the Marquis to come and have a look at you..."
Cheng Chumo and Cheng Chuliang suddenly wanted to turn around and beat this guy into a pig's head.
"Oh - General Manager Wang, who do you want me to show you..."
Wang Meng was just wondering why his two uncles were walking in such a hurry when a familiar voice suddenly came from behind him. When he turned around, he found that his uncle was looking at him with squinting eyes and a half-smile.
Suddenly I felt excited.
"No, no, no - what, I have something else to do, please excuse me first..."
…
The prince stayed in his study, dawdling and unwilling to come out. It was not until the little girl Wu Zetian came to call him to eat that he bit the bullet and went back to the backyard to eat. After walking absentmindedly for a while, he suddenly felt that something was wrong.
Looking up, the little girl seemed to be walking a little differently than before.
But I can't say what's different about it.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! I couldn’t help but subconsciously take a second look.
After watching for a long time, when I was approaching the backyard, I suddenly realized that the little girl had already gained a certain figure without knowing it. I don’t know if it was a problem from his perspective or the little girl’s walking problem, but it looked like she had
A bit graceful.
"Master, let's go quickly. If you don't go and eat, the food will be cold..."
When he entered the door, the little girl suddenly turned her head and greeted him. There seemed to be a bit of charm in her eyebrows?
Wang Zi’an:……
No wonder that in his previous life, that old guy Li Shimin was so shameless and senior that he insisted on marrying the daughter of his former subordinate. This little girl is indeed worthy of the title of Mei Niang.
cough--
You have to be careful about Li Shimin and...
Forget it, that little guy Li Zhi is still a slug, so don’t think about it for now.
"Ladies, they are all already here——"
Wang Zi'an glanced at his three daughters-in-law with some guilt. As a result, the imagined meeting of the three judges did not come. Cheng Ying'er even handed him a pair of bowls and chopsticks in person.
After a meal, Wang Zi'an felt doubtful.
It wasn't until after dinner and before leaving the house that I heard Cheng Ying'er behind me suddenly add a sentence that was neither salty nor bland.
"Be gentle in the future. My eldest brother and second brother are both grown up. They need some dignity after all..."
Wang Zi’an:……
Somewhat embarrassed, he turned around and ran away.
In the evening, I planned not to go anywhere, but to stay in my study to avoid the limelight for the time being.
Who knows, just after midnight, I heard the sound of the window lattice, the window creaked open, and with a gust of cool breeze, a graceful figure floated in from the outside.
"Snapped--"
The window was casually lowered.
Su Su performed extremely fiery tonight.
Afterwards, Su Su was softly in Wang Zi'an's arms. Wang Zi'an couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief. He was wandering in the world when he suddenly heard Su Su ask a faint question.
"Husband, who is better, me or that girl Ling'er?"
Wang Zi’an:……
It was a hazy night, and with the moonlight shining through the window lattice, he looked at Su Su's big, bright eyes. He couldn't help but tighten Su Su's arms and said apologetically.
"It's my fault today. I have thoughts that I shouldn't have. If you are unhappy, I won't..."
Before she could finish her words, Su Su's soft little hands blocked her mouth.
Su Su in her arms seemed to be touched by Wang Zi'an. She squirmed slightly and lay in Wang Zi'an's arms like a kitten.
"I'm not unhappy. The day I went out, my master and senior brother told me that a person like my husband, who is like an immortal, would definitely not just guard a few of us women. I, I'm just afraid...
…”
Wang Zi'an looked at Su Su, who was particularly weak in pregnancy, and was silent for a long time. Then he looked into Su Su's eyes and said seriously.
"I, Wang Zi'an, will never let you down."
Su Su did not speak, but nodded gently. The soft hair brushed the tip of Wang Zi'an's nose like silk, making him feel an inexplicable surge of emotion in his heart.
…
What Wang Zi'an didn't know was that just as he waved goodbye to Kong Ling'er, Cui Hong, accompanied by his old servant at home, left Chang'an again in a carriage at dusk.
Wangchuan Villa.
At this time, it has already entered April, but the Wangchuan area seems to have missed half a shot, and there is still a little bit of spring left. Under the afterglow of the setting sun, the peach blossoms are blooming, and the pear blossoms are white. Even the weeping willows in front of the Cui Family Courtyard are all beautiful.
It looks more colorful and has a different kind of enchantment.
East Cross Courtyard.
Cui Ming's widow, Liu Qiao'er, sat in front of the bronze mirror, carefully applying the final touches of makeup.
Then, he looked at his reflection in the mirror with some confusion.
Her eyebrows are picturesque, her skin is as good as snow, and she has become more rounded and charming.
However, compared with the previous encounter with Wang Zi'an, her waist had become more obvious. Seeing that she could no longer hide it, she couldn't help but reach out and gently touch her belly, with a hint of worry in her eyes.
.
At this moment, I suddenly heard an old servant outside the door reporting softly.
"Madam, the head of the family has arrived. He said he is concerned about the young master's condition and would like to ask the madam to come over and ask about the situation..."
Liu Qiaoer did not look back, but nodded slightly and said softly.
"I see……"
The old servant bowed and left. Liu Qiaoer looked in the mirror and carefully arranged her makeup. When she was about to go out, she turned back and deliberately messed up a few strands of hair on her forehead.
Suddenly, out of thin air, she gained a bit more tenderness and charm that I felt pity for.
Backyard, study room.
"Daughter-in-law, Mrs. Liu, please pay your respects to your father——"
Cui Hong looked at his daughter-in-law, whose hair was slightly messy, her collarbones were delicate, and she was panting slightly from walking. Cui Hong couldn't help but swallowed, and there was a trace of unconcealable heat on her upright and majestic face.
