Chapter 538: A loving lover, a caring family member

On New Year's Eve, the Xuan Mansion was enveloped in an atmosphere of joy. However, although the Yamen was sealed, some urgent matters still had to be handled. Since the transportation of baggage for the Northern Expedition had been decided, the four major warehouses of the Xuan Mansion were still flowing.

Grain kept coming into the warehouse, so that morning, Zhang Yue, who was supposed to be at home with Du Wan, went to the General Military Mansion. When several clerks stamped all the special warehouse notes, the time changed.

It was almost noon, so he ordered people to send these warehouse notes to the four warehouses, and then locked the door and went out. As soon as he stepped down the steps, a soldier quickly stepped forward and bowed down with a smile.

"Sir, the Marquis has sent word that I heard that your family members have arrived, so I would like to invite them all to come to the Yamen for a gathering at noon. The Marquis has already sent people to invite the young Marquis and his wife from the Hou family in Baoding. They will be here soon. You

Hurry back and pick them up!"

The result of the lingering love affair early that morning was that Du Wan couldn't get out of bed all day long, and it took the boss a lot of effort to clean up the mess on the kang. It was quite an embarrassing little New Year's Eve, so the instigator Zhang

Yuezi was so talkative that he didn't care about etiquette. He thought it wouldn't be too late for Du Wan to come to the General Military Mansion again on New Year's Day. But now Wu'an Hou Zhengheng sent someone to invite him, and he also said that he invited Zhang Qing and Meng Jun.

I really couldn't find any reason to refuse, so I had no choice but to agree immediately.

Sure enough, when he returned home and told Du Wan, he immediately got a big look. The soft flesh on his waist was also suffering a lot, and he was so pitiful that he could not bear to look at it. When his wife came out dressed in clothes suitable for guests, he still wanted to

With a scowl on his face, he went to help him, but Du Wan gave him a sharp look and had to stand there.

Lingxi was the last one to go down the steps, and then said with a smile: "Qiu Hen will follow the young master and young mistress to the General Military Mansion, and the slave girl and Hu Hu will stay here. It's the New Year's Eve tonight, so it's not okay to be careless. Let's keep the two of them."

You can give Sister Li a shot. Why don't you, Master, be more considerate? This time, let's keep Liansheng Lianhu and his family, and take Brother Xiang and Brother Liu with them. We also brought a lot of guards, a lot of them.

It’s enough for people to look after the house.”

Zhang Yue and Du Wan all knew that Lingxi Amber was always safe, so they had no objection to letting them come down. Although there were only a few steps from the door to the General Military Mansion, it was always inappropriate for the female family members to show up in public, and Du Wan's actions were still inappropriate.

It was so convenient, so it was natural to prepare a carriage. When we parked in front of the General Military Mansion, a carriage stopped on the opposite side. Meng Jun, who was riding behind, jumped off the horse neatly and threw the reins to a man who came out.

Then he went to the carriage and helped Zhang Qing down.

Coincidentally, Zhang Yuechia also acted in a normal way. When people from the two families following the car saw Uncle Lang and Uncle doing exactly the same thing, they couldn't help but snicker in their hearts. The two families were close relatives, and after meeting each other, they would enter the door together.

Zhang Yue intentionally walked a few steps behind and went in side by side with Meng Jun. He accidentally caught a glimpse of his eldest sister Zhang Qing's walking posture, and he suddenly had a strange look on his face.

Well, it seems that he is not the only one who is eager to eat hot tofu!

Honorable families have always been married to each other, not to mention the Zhang family and the Meng family. Zheng Heng's nephew is married to the niece of the Marquis of Baoding's mother-in-law, Lu's family, and is also considered a relative. At this time, the family banquet is placed at three doors within three doors.

There is a flower hall. There are a few women in the inner room, and three grown men in the outer room. The tables on both sides are full of hot and cold food, but there is only a curtain between the inside and the outside. The laughter and laughter are flowing unimpeded, but they are becoming more and more revealing.

There was a bit of a festive atmosphere.

Compared with other noble titles, which have often been replaced by the second and third generations, the Marquis of Wu'an Zheng Heng, who is over fifty, is now in his prime, in good health and energetic, and it is easy to say that he is a dragon and a tiger. His concubine came to Xuan Mansion

However, within a few days, his face suddenly glowed brightly, and he even spoke with a certain amount of energy. He often laughed heartily, and he was not at all serious at work.

"The reason why it's at noon is because you all picked up your family members with great difficulty. This New Year's Eve should be your own reunion. There's no reason for me, an elder, to step in and take up your time. Speaking of your two wives,

Be steady when you should be steady, and be shrewd when you should be shrewd. Many people are envious of you, but since we have been married for generations, the heirs are still important. The other sons of my family are not as good as you, except for one thing.

Better than you, he is about the same age as you and already has four children, two boys, two girls!"

Zhang Yue and Meng Jun didn't expect that Zheng Heng suddenly said such words. They looked at each other for a while, and then they both drank. However, Zheng Heng drank the glass in one gulp, and then smiled and said: "While you are young,

If you have more children, you may not be able to do what you want when you get old. Those in my family gave me a total of seven or eight boys and girls, and only three survived. This life is full of disasters.

, if the incense is cut off, the wealth that pours into the sky will also turn into nothing. Among the heroes of Jingnan, Chengyang Hou Zhangwu was still above me in rank, but because he had no children, as soon as he left, the title earned by his illustrious military exploits

It’s gone before your eyes.”

Although it was unlucky to discuss this kind of topic on New Year's Eve, knowing that Zheng Heng meant well, Zhang Yue and Meng Jun naturally agreed, and the room was also lively at the moment.

Although Aunt Zhang is not the wife of Marquis Wu'an, she is young and beautiful. In addition, she gave birth to a son the year before last. Not only is she well-known at home, but she is often the one who goes to the homes of other distinguished nobles.

She is a well-rounded person. In terms of age, she is only five or six years older than Zhang Qing and Du Wan, but her observation of words and expressions is far better than theirs. Knowing that Zhang Qing and Du Wan are both royal wives, Zhang will always praise my wife and her attitude.

Be humble yet generous.

Zhang Qing looked at her wearing a green silk coat with blue edges, purple-green armor, and only a silver bun on her head. She felt that she knew how to behave, so she spoke more casually. And Du Wan was sitting there now

She just felt sore all over her body. Although she was also laughing and joking, she was still thinking about the madness yesterday. On her face, she blamed Zhang Yue for being reckless and ignorant of propriety, but how could she remember any propriety at that time?

After eating this meal for more than an hour, Zhang Yue and Du Wan just returned home. After entering the house, the first thing Du Wan did was to take off the overcoat and jewelry he used to visit guests, and put on his home clothes.

She wore a small jade-colored satin jacket with only a loose bun on her head. Because Qiuhen also ran to help in the kitchen, there were only the couple in the room. Seeing Zhang Yue sitting on the kang and looking straight at her, he didn't

Unable to sit cross-legged, she could only lean on the back of the kang chair, but deliberately not look at him.

"Mei Wan, you have been married to me for more than two years. Normally, there shouldn't be any secrets between husband and wife, but you know my temper. The letter you asked Qiu Hen to bring..."

"Of course I know your temper. Don't you just like to carry things on your shoulders and put things in your belly alone?" Du Wan then raised his head, looked at Zhang Yue and snorted angrily and funny.

He made a sound, and then said calmly, "If you want to tell me what I mentioned in my letter from home, then there is no need. The man is the man outside and the woman is the housewife. Don't say that this is the father-in-law's private matter.

If you were being secretive outside, as long as you were doing business, I wouldn't ask you a single word. I just felt that it was inappropriate for me to interfere in this matter, and I was afraid that something would happen, so I just wanted to give you a heads up."

Zhang Yueyuan was still hesitating about how to let Du Wan go back and explain something to his mother, so that he could get away with it. Seeing her say this, he breathed a sigh of relief. It wasn't that he couldn't say these words to Du Wanming, but it was just that some joints were difficult for him even to say.

If you only know a little bit about it but don't understand it well, it may be a confused account. Why should Du Wan have to worry about it?

Thinking of this, he put the matter aside for the time being. Although today was New Year's Eve, but thinking of what happened yesterday, he simply moved the kang table inside and sat forward again.

"There's one more thing I want to tell you, and it's about Qiu Hen and the other three. Qiu Hen grew up with me, and I've never avoided her in domestic and external matters. Amber's background was pitiful, and she's been with me for nine years.

There have been many frightening moments. Lingxi was given to me by my grandmother. She has always taken care of it inside and out, and is the most reliable and safe. We have been in love for more than ten years, and as time goes by, it has become a family habit. It is like this for them, and it is like this for me.

Same thing."

Du Wan, who was leaning there lazily, only listened to the beginning, and immediately sat up straight, wringing her hands together unconsciously. As early as when everyone reunited for the New Year in Qingzhou, she knew that Zhang Yue treated the three girls.

It was different. At that time, she initially followed her father's orders to go to Qingzhou to help. Although

She said that she really liked Zhang Yue, but looking at Zhang Yue as if she was interested in Meng Min, she never thought that the marriage would actually lead to her being with him. When she married into the Zhang family, she had no dowry.

They are slaves to their families, so the daily life of the two of them is still in harmony with Amber Qiuhen's care.

Two years of spending time together day and night was enough for her to understand the thoughts of the three of them. She can tell these four words without anyone saying it, and what's more, the relationship between the three of them has existed before her. She is used to autumn.

In the past two years, the three of them have been in front of her.

There was actually more time than in front of Zhang Yue. This time, the person Gu personally pointed out was carefully hidden in front of her, but the joy could not be concealed. She was obviously mentally prepared, but

She was still hesitant when she stepped into the house yesterday, and it even turned into nameless anger. As a result, the anger eventually turned into a madness.

At this moment, Zhang Yue said it again, and she asked with a half-smile: "Is it just a family habit?"

If it was just an explicit hint from his grandmother and mother, then Zhang Yue finally figured it out. The sense of trust he had established with Qiuhen and the others since childhood was no less than the care and love given to him by his parents and relatives in this life. Silence
