Chapter five hundred and sixty-four new people and old women
At night, the team set up camp on the grassland. The soldiers lit several bonfires, slaughtered sheep and barbecued meat, and drank milk wine happily.
Guo Song was sitting by the bonfire making milk tea, and Dugu Youlan was sitting next to him. Her pretty face was reflected in the firelight, and she was fascinated as she watched Guo Song making milk tea.
"What are you thinking about?"
Guo Song glanced at her and asked with a smile: "So lost in thought!"
Dugu Youlan's pretty face turned red, "The first time I met the general, you were making milk tea for Madam, and there were Uncle Xue and Aunt Xue. At that time, I was thinking..."
"You must be thinking, ha! When will I let this guy cook for me, right?"
Dugu Youlan pursed her lips and smiled: "No! I was thinking about shooting this guy in the throat with an arrow while he was drinking milk tea."
Guo Song was so frightened that his hands shook, and he smiled and said: "It's okay! Fortunately you didn't cum, otherwise I wouldn't be able to drink milk tea today."
Dugu Youlan glanced at him a little shyly, lowered her head and said, "It seems like no one is interested in drinking your milk tea."
Guo Song made the milk tea, poured it for her and said with a smile: "The milk tea I made is not so easy to drink. It is the best in Hexi. You can try it."
Dugu Youlan smelled the fragrant milk tea and smiled sweetly: "It smells really good, very fragrant."
"Yeah! When you are in confinement, I will cook it for you every day."
Dugu Youlan's face turned red with embarrassment. She stood up to leave, but Guo Song stopped her and said with a smile: "I'm just kidding, the mutton will be ready soon, don't leave!"
Dugu Youzhou then sat back on the sheepskin blanket, rolled his eyes at Guo Song, and said coquettishly: "You are such an unruly guy!"
Guo Song was in a good mood, raised his glass and said with a smile: "Congratulations on having the chance to sit together tonight, let's drink to it!"
Dugu Youzhou also got used to his future husband's shamelessness and smiled lightly: "Cheers!"
At this time, the soldiers came over with roasted mutton. Guo Song took the big plate and said with a smile: "You go and eat! I'll come over here."
Guo Song pulled out a knife to cut the mutton, cut a small plate, sprinkled with spices, and handed it to her along with the knife, "Fresh roast mutton, eat it while it's hot."
"Thanks!"
Dugu Youlan took the plate and was really touched. She made milk tea for herself and cut mutton for herself. She was gentle and considerate. Where can she find such a husband?
She ate the mutton in small bites, but her eye circles quietly turned red.
After dinner, the two of them walked slowly side by side on the grassland. Dugu Youlan told Guo Song about her life experience and story.
"My mother is the daughter of the eldest grandson. She and my aunt are biological sisters. We married my father together. Later, my aunt died of illness and my mother became a wife. However, my relationship with my mother has not been very good since I was a child."
"Why?"
"My mother favored boys over girls. She liked my brother but not me. My brother was only one year older than me. She had to take care of him, so she left me with the wet nurse. I could only see my mother once every few months, but my father liked me very much.
He regarded me as the apple of his eye. I began to read and write when I was five years old. My aunt also liked me very much. My aunt served as a Taoist nun in Qingcheng Mountain. When I was ten years old, my father was very busy and could not take care of me anymore, so my aunt took me
He took me to Qingcheng Mountain and taught me martial arts and archery. When I was fourteen years old, I went home from the mountain and happened to meet..."
"Call me husband." Guo Song whispered.
Dugu Youlan was very shy, lowered her head and whispered: "I happened to meet my husband and his entourage, and I learned that the person being escorted was Yang Zilin. I heard from my aunt that Yang Zilin was a slave to the common people and was full of evil. His son also bullied men and domineering women, and he ruined many good families.
Woman, I have murderous intentions and want to get rid of the father and son."
"You were only fourteen that year!" Guo Song said in surprise.
"How old do you think I am?"
"I thought you were at least in your twenties at that time."
"nonsense!"
Dugu Youlan heard the teasing tone in her husband's tone and couldn't help but reach out to pinch his arm, but Guo Song took advantage of it and held his hand and refused to let go.
The shyness in Dugu Youlan's heart gradually faded away, and a kind of sweetness surged in her heart. She did not break away, and continued to walk slowly holding hands with her husband.
"Husband, why did you come out to see me off last time?" Dugu Youlan asked again in a low voice.
Guo Song smiled slightly and said: "As soon as I come back, you have to leave. I feel very sorry in my heart, so I want to catch up with you and ask you to stay."
"Is it because you are grateful to me?"
"A little bit! But more of an apology."
"Isn't there something else, like...like me?" Dugu Youlan asked with courage.
Guo Song gently turned her body, hugged her into his arms, and whispered in her ear: "If I didn't like you, I wouldn't agree to this marriage."
Dugu Youlan nestled in the arms of her future husband, her heart filled with tenderness and sweetness.
Guo Song raised her chin, and Dugu Youlan slowly closed her eyes to look. Guo Song lowered his head and kissed her on the lips. Her whole body tensed up. Guo Song simply hugged her slender waist and kissed her deeply.
Kissed.
........
Four days later, at dusk, Guo Song and his party arrived in Zhangye. Xue Tao personally greeted Dugu Youlan at the door. Dugu Youlan got off the carriage and bowed deeply to the blessing ceremony.
Xue Tao quickly took her hand and smiled: "I finally have a sister."
She glanced at her husband, ignored him, and said to Dugu Youlan: "Let's go to the inner house. Tell my sister, did that guy bully you on the way?"
She took Dugu Youlan's arm and walked towards the inner house, ignoring Guo Song and leaving him alone.
Guo Song had no choice but to go back to his study. As soon as he sat down, Ah Qiu came in with a cup of tea and put it down to leave. When Guo Song saw her expression was different, he smiled and said, "What's wrong with you?"
Aqiu turned her back, sobbing and crying, "Young master, do you also want to send me away like a little fish girl?"
Guo Song sighed and said, "Come here!"
Aqiu lowered his head and walked over slowly. Guo Song said: "First of all, I have to make it clear that I did not send Xiaoyu Niang away. I have regarded her as my younger sister for many years and have never had any other thoughts about her. She
I know it myself.
I asked her to lead Tiance Building because she is the person I trust most and the most suitable candidate. This is the position she dreams of. She is also very happy. When she meets the person she likes in the future, I will let her
She got married gracefully, and if she doesn't want to get married, I won't force it. All in all, she will always be a member of the family and the aunt of Xiaowei and Acheng."
"What about me?"
Ah Qiu pouted and whispered, "Everyone is already serving you so well."
Guo Song had nothing to do with her. She was the maid of his wife, and he and his wife did not avoid her when having sex. She was actually worried about herself. Now that Dugu Youlan was about to come in, someone probably said something gossip, and she became frightened.
Aqiu is not an ordinary maid in the Guo Song Mansion. Her identity is actually a concubine. She is half the master in the manor. Many maids are secretly jealous of her and try to replace her.
She is seventeen years old this year. She has grown from the little orphan girl in Jiangxia to a big girl. She has been a beautiful child since she was a child, and now she is even more round and beautiful.
She has a plump body, especially her skin is extremely white and greasy, making many maids pale in front of her.
Today she overheard several maids talking behind her back, saying that the second lady was entering the house soon and that she was a lady from a famous family. It was ridiculous that some people were overestimating their abilities and had forgotten their identity.
The insinuating comments made by several maids made Ah Qiu afraid that she would be sent away. At the same time, she felt inferior and sad, and felt sad.
Guo Song put his arm around her waist and comforted her softly: "You know in your heart that since I have a physical relationship with you, it is impossible for me to send you out. I will definitely take you into the room until you are ten years old next year."
I took you as my concubine when I was eight years old. This is also my wife's wish."
Ah Qiu nodded obediently and finally smiled. When Guo Song saw that her tears were turning into a smile, he smiled and said: "Stop being emotional and go!"
Ah Qiu whispered: "My wife asked me to serve the young master. She will be with Miss Dugu tonight, and she asked the young master to sleep in the study tonight."
Guo Song's heart skipped a beat, so he patted her and said, "Then go and make my bed."
Ah Qiu calmed down and went to the second floor to make the bed happily.
Early the next morning, Aqiu was busy combing Guo Song's hair and served his master hard all night. Aqiu had completely forgotten yesterday's worries and felt very comfortable, so he worked even harder.
She suddenly remembered something and said quickly: "Just now, the housekeeper said that Grandpa Yan has something to see the young master, and he is out in the study!"
Grandpa Yan is Yan Zhenqing. Today is a holiday. He came to see me, probably because of Dugu Youlan's marriage.
Guo Song nodded, "Bring me some clothes, I'll go over now!"
.......
Yan Zhenqing's official residence is next to Guo Song, covering an area of about ten acres. Several of his concubines, his youngest son, daughter-in-law, and grandson all came here. Yan Zhenqing's youngest son is called Yan Shuo. He is in his thirties and once served as secretary to the provincial government.
Zhengzi, he accompanied the prince Li Song to study, and later served as Zuochunfang of the East Palace, and finally became the fifth-rank household doctor. After the Jingyuan mutiny, he did not go to Chengdu, but fled to Yuanzhou with his father for refuge.
This time he also followed his father to Hexi, and was appointed by Guo Song as the newly established Shicao Division to participate in the military affairs, in charge of roads and bridges, transportation, as well as mines, wineries and other government-run workshops.
Yan Zhenqing was sitting in Guo Song's outer study, looking at a piece of calligraphy in the middle hall on the wall. It was the four characters "Compassion with the World" that he had given to Guo Song. This was originally written by him to the emperor Li Shi, but
Guo Song liked it and gave it to him. At that time, he felt it was a bit inappropriate, but now it seems that it is perfect.
At this time, footsteps were heard outside, and Guo Song walked in and said with a smile, "Yang Ge has been waiting for a long time!"
