"Ah, isn't this little Qianqian?" Di Yu's mother seemed to be as happy with everyone as she was with her own children. "Why are you here? You didn't even notify me when you came."
The woman walked over, knelt down, and looked at that lovely face. Shen Qianqian gave her a big smile.
"My father and mother are here too. They are at the door. I ran in first."
"Oh, really? Come here, prepare more of these stools." The woman ordered. "Come on, Qianqian, sit down first, and I will pick up your mother and the others."
"Yeah, yeah." Shen Qianqian nodded.
Shen Qianqian watched the lady leave, and immediately ran to Chen Mo, stared at him, and asked: "Why did you leave without saying a word? Are you afraid that I will eat you?"
"I'm not afraid that you'll cry, make trouble, or hang yourself." Chen Mo looked at her and replied.
"Qianqian, you are a little too fond of the old. Why do you say that you are the most familiar with your brother Di? How come you left us out in the cold when you first came?" Wukou sat there and laughed.
"Brother Wu, you are a grown man who leads troops to fight, but you are jealous of this kind of thing?" Shen Qianqian gave him a roll of the eyes, then sat down on a stool that the maid had just brought, and said to Chen Mo: " Didn’t you say you came to take revenge from the Wu family?! It seems that you have known each other for a long time, and it made me worry in vain."
"Revenge? Chen Mo, how did you deceive the little girl? Tell her truthfully."
"It was his own wild thoughts. I told him that I had something to do in Changjing, so she went there on her own." Chen Mo said calmly.
"It does look like her style." Di Yu said with a smile.
At this time, a group of people also walked in and greeted each other. The hall suddenly became lively. As the hosts, Mr. Di and his wife were naturally very happy.
A slightly bloated man walked up to Chen Mo with a graceful and gorgeous lady. Chen Mo knew who it was without any introduction, but Shen Qianqian, who was holding his sleeve beside him, couldn't help but happily gave Chen Mo He introduced: "This is Brother Chen Mo who saved Qianqian."
With that said, Shen Qianqian ran between the two of them, held one person's arm with one hand, looked at Chen Mo and said, "Brother, these are Qianqian's parents."
Shen Qianqian's parents looked at the indifferent young man in front of them, then rolled up their sleeves and knelt down to Chen Mo. With only half of their knees bent, Chen Mo waved his hand and a gust of wind blew by. The two of them straightened themselves up.
"She helped, and I helped him, it's as simple as that." Chen Mo said lightly. He didn't want to get too involved in these worldly connections. "There's no need to say too much. I will still be with her when I see her elsewhere in the future." greet."
"Xi'er, what's going on?" Di Wei's mother was a little confused by this scene. She originally thought she was just a friend of the military commander, but the Shen family treated her so seriously, so there must be something going on.
"Tell me about it later." Di Er patted her hand gently, then walked to Chen Mo, put his hand on Chen Mo's shoulder, looked at the Shen family and his wife and said, "Okay, Chen Mo If you don’t like these understandings, let’s not force things on others, come here, sit down, sit down and talk slowly.”
"Okay, okay." Shen Wanguan no longer insisted.
"Mr. Shen, how is the road recovering now?" After sitting down, Di Yu asked about the road conditions after the heavy snow.
"Just force it. If it weren't for my daughter, I might have been two days late in coming to Changjing. The road is really difficult now." Shen Wanguan looked at his daughter sitting next to Chen Mo and sighed.
"Hey, big brother." While several adults were chatting, Shen Qianqian pulled Chen Mo's sleeve.
"what?"
"My brother seems to have changed a little bit about the method you told me last time."
"What change?" Chen Mo turned to look at the other side of Shen Qianqian. Shen Baibai, who was sitting quietly like a good child, had slightly focused eyes, looking at the essence through the surface.
"That's right, how should I put it..." Shen Qianqian organized her tone, and then slowly told Chen Mo about the differences between Shen Baibai these days.
Chen Mo listened and watched. Shen Baibai was indeed a little different, better than when he saw him before.
"That's probably it. Do you think this is a good phenomenon?"
"It should be said that it's good. It's like having a vicious dog in your home. It doesn't even bark at the owner, but it's still dangerous." Chen Mo explained to Shen Qianqian in words that Shen Qianqian could understand.
Both of them spoke very quietly and did not disturb the conversations of those people.
"Then what should we do next?"
"There is no next step, let him take it one step at a time."
"Okay."
Since you are visiting someone else's house, of course you have to have a meal. The food of the Di family is naturally not as good as the food of the Wu family, but it is the most enjoyable for Wukou. The three families can eat like a family, and the food of the Wu family is the most enjoyable. On the night of the New Year's Eve, it was all a family but the food tasted from more than two families.
One afternoon after lunch, except for the two women and the children who didn't drink, several grown men got into it. Di Yu, who usually doesn't drink much, also drank a lot today.
At the end of the day, when it was almost time for dinner, several grown men fell down from drinking, but this man, Chen Mo, was still sitting as steady as a rock.
Chen Mo didn't want to say the polite words, but the warriors had already laid down, so it was Chen Mo who did the talking.
"Madam, that's it for today. I'll send the warriors back first." Chen Mo stood up to say goodbye. Although it was dinner time, looking at the situation, these people would not wake up.
"Wu Kou and Mr. Chen will stay here today. Wukou used to come here often, and it's common for him to spend the night. I'll ask someone to clean up the room. Don't worry, although my home is not as good as Wu's house, there are still rooms. .”
Chen Mo looked at Wu Kou who was lying on the table. He was too lazy to drink again and again. He had to deal with his own funeral affairs.
"Okay." Chen Mo is a happy-go-lucky person and has no requirements at all about where he will live.
"Mom, what about us?" Shen Qianqian looked at her mother, with a little hope hidden in her eyes.
"You guys can stay here too, if you can free up a room." The hostess of the Di family said. "Just in time, I still have a lot of things to talk to you about."
"Okay." The young Shen Qianqian looked at the light in her child's eyes and couldn't bear to refuse.
"Okay." Shen Qianqian jumped up with joy.
...
The next day, early in the morning, several grown men patted their groggy heads and walked out of their respective rooms. There was no snow falling outside.
After a few drunken men washed themselves briefly, they returned to the hall together, where they prepared hot white rice porridge and some side dishes that go well with porridge.
A few grown men just started fucking without saying a word. The scene was quite spectacular. After everyone had a bowl of hot rice porridge, it seemed as if all their souls were back.
"Don't show off if you can't drink. You won't be the ones who suffer in the end." Di Yu's mother and Shen Wanguan's wife said as they looked at the few people who had regained a little bit of shape.
"Why is there nothing wrong with Chen Mo?" Wu Kou frowned and looked at the back of Chen Mo who was sitting on a stone in the yard, while Shen Qianqian and his brother and sister were playing in the snow, having a great time.
"Old Shen, didn't you say you're a good drinker? Why did you get fucked down?" Di Yu rubbed his temples. Yesterday, the three of them did the same thing without any premeditation but in unison, for their own sake. Purpose, keep toasting to Chen Mo.
"According to legend, it is difficult for people with advanced cultivation to commit crimes." Shen Waguan muttered.
In fact, he understood it wrong. Advanced cultivation can indeed make you drink better, but only some, and it is not what people say.
Chen Mo's attention was all on Shen Baibai. The phenomenon that Shen Qianqian mentioned yesterday seemed to be that this guy deliberately did not let Chen Mo see it. Chen Mo felt a little like it was his own contribution, right? Didn't he even take a look at it?
After eating the hot white rice porridge, Shen Wanguan only sat for a symbolic moment before standing up and saying goodbye. This was not the only thing he came to Changjing for, but it was indeed the most important thing.
Now that things are almost done, it's time for him to deal with other things.
"Then everyone, let's leave first. Come and bother us when we finish our work."
The Di family didn't have too many early mornings, so Mr. Di could only urge them to get things done quickly, and then get together before the Lantern Festival. After the Lantern Festival, people had to go back to their busy lives.
When Shen Wanguan passed by Chen Mo, he looked at Chen Mo and said, "Chen Mo, if you have time, come and sit at Shen's house in Lingpai."
"It depends."
"Then let's say goodbye first." Shen Wanguan bowed his hand to Chen Mo, and his wife also saluted Chen Mo.
"Qianqian, Baibai, let's go."
"Okay." Shen Qianqian responded, ran to Chen Mo and said, "Brother, we are leaving. I will find you when Qianqian is free."
"Big brother, goodbye." Shen Qianqian took Shen Baibai's hand and chased after their parents without forgetting to return, adding the same thing.
Chen Mo watched the Shen family leave, then returned to the hall and sat down.
The Shen family left for a while, and Wukou also stood up to say goodbye. No one chose to have lunch here, as they were really afraid that some of them would get drunk after lunch.
...
The heavy snow has stopped, and on the main roads outside Changjing City, you can still see people and pretentious officials clearing the snow. On some important roads, those officers and soldiers are working extra hard, perhaps because they have changed The way to drink tea.
A group of carriages and horses stopped at the door, quietly waiting for the mistress of the mansion to appear, and this mistress was the wife of King Wushou who lived in the mansion.
In the study room, Tang Mingxing helped Wu Ling'er tidy up her clothes and said, "I hope you will be the same person you were when you came back."
"It was impossible before, and the passage of time cannot be turned back. Just wait for my news at home." With that, Wu Ling'er walked out of the study accompanied by the maid, got on the carriage, and headed towards the West Infinity. Departure from Changjing of hope.
