The Marquis Is Innocent: Chapter 74
Wan Feng picked up the strands of hair that had fallen out of her ears, and stuck it on the white jade-like half of her cheek, the corners of her lips curved, revealing a mischievous look.
Wei Shao looked at it, and suddenly felt an itch in his heart, as if he was lightly tickled by something. Holding back, his expression became more serious: "You know who I am talking about."
"There are quite a few people at home today. I really don't know who the husband is referring to. Doctor Leling, the second aunt, the third aunt, and Mrs. Zhenguo sent them to inquire about their illness. Oh, yes, there is another from Zhongshan. lady…"
Xiao Qiao's eyes widened: "Could it be that you asked Mrs. Zhongshan Guo?"
Wei Shao squinted slightly and stared at her for a moment.
"Have you heard anything before?" he said.
"Husband, what do you think I heard?"
Her cheeks were tickled by the hair, and Xiao Qiao raised her hand and tucked the hair behind her ears, looking a little careless.
Wei Shao had a meal.
"What could there be?"
He asked back. Xu Shi was a little upset by her words and attitude. With a snort, he turned around and walked to the study.
Xiao Qiao watched his back disappear at the end of the corridor, turned around and closed the door. After returning to her desk full of brochures, she continued to face the account slowly as Tian Zhongni pointed out.
At the time of Hai Shizheng, Wei Shao came back from the study. He ignored Xiao Qiao at first, took off his clothes and lay down.
There are not many accounts left on the brochure in Xiao Qiao's hand. Before a short while, I heard Wei Shao's voice coming from the tent: "It's getting late, grandmother only asked you to be in charge, and didn't tell you to turn on the lights in the middle of the night to rush to reconcile accounts!"
Xiao Qiao rolled her eyes secretly. To avoid disturbing his rest. After getting up, I washed my hands, turned off the lights and went to bed.
At first the two did not speak, and each slept separately. Wei Shao turned over several times. Xiao Qiao just closed her eyes and said nothing.
Suddenly I heard him say, "I'm going out in two days."
Xiao Qiao was startled and opened her eyes.
"Where are you going, husband?"
"Chen Xiang escaped in the last battle at Shiyi, fled to Hedong, borrowed troops from his old friend Cao Jin to buy food, and tried to attack Bingzhou. Now it is in the Shangdang area. Although it is not a problem, it must be eliminated. I will go personally."
Xiao Qiao was startled and sat up from the pillow.
She remembered that Da Qiao had said in a previous life that when Mrs. Xu passed away, Wei Shaoren was not in Yuyang and went out to fight.
She was fortunate at first that this was not the case in this world. Because of these days, Wei Shao has been at home.
This book also made Xiao Qiao feel relieved.
Unexpectedly, he suddenly said that he was leaving, and he would leave in two days.
One more situation that matches the previous life! Could it be that things are really going to develop step by step towards the established result of the previous life?
In the dimness, Wei Shaoyingyingchuo saw her suddenly sitting up, so she turned on the bed.
"Can you not go, husband?" Xiao Qiao looked up at him slowly and asked.
She was sitting beside her with a blank expression on her face, her eyes were straight, as if she was frightened by his words.
Wei Shao had never seen her look like this in front of him. And ask such childish words. For some reason, instead of being annoyed, a kind of pity tenderness slowly poured out of my heart. The stuffiness in my chest that had been stagnant until this moment in the morning seemed to have disappeared.
Wei Shao said, "I'm afraid..."
"Husband, don't go!"
Xiao Qiao rushed over and threw him on the pillow.
"Don't you still have General Li Wei Liang and the others under your account? Let them go on your behalf!"
Wei Shao was caught off guard, and she fell on his back on the pillow.
She almost threw herself on her chest, the two jade bibs climbed his shoulders, and the two pink meat **** on her chest also pressed him down, her beautiful eyes opened like a cat's round eyes, and her eyes were wide open. Looking at him with a sullen look.
Wei Shao's hands were straight, lying motionless, letting her hold him down, hesitating, and said, "It's settled today..."
"Husband, please!" Xiao Qiao interrupted him, shaking his shoulders with two little hands, "I really don't want you to go out to fight again now! Please! Stay!"
Wei Shao only felt that the meat was floating and the bones were crispy. Knowing that he couldn't change it, he couldn't refuse it outright. After shaking his shoulders a few times, he heard a voice in his throat saying, "...Let me discuss it tomorrow..."
Xiao Qiao finally breathed a sigh of relief, only then did he feel that he was pressing him, let go of his shoulders, and climbed down from him.
Wei Shao raised his arms and hugged her, turned over and pressed her under him: "You are so reluctant to let me go?"
His thumb held her chin, and his tone was a little frivolous and smug.
Seeing that his face was just above his own, Xiao Qiao met his dark eyes that were close at hand, bit his lip, and hummed.
"If that's the case, why did you face me coldly in the morning?" Wei Shao forced her to ask.
Xiao Qiao endured the goosebumps that were about to appear, avoided his eyes, stared at his Adam's apple, and said vaguely: "Who told you to treat me like that last night..."
Wei Shao felt that she was pampering herself, she felt comfortable, cupped her face in her hands, and said in a low voice, "I'm so tired, all my strength is on you, I don't know when you will leave..."
Wei Shao was only in his early twenties and had a lot of energy. After sharing the bed with Xiao Qiao for so long, he felt like eating marrow and knowing the taste, and he couldn't stop because of the beauty of her body. It's a pity that she doesn't seem to be very enthusiastic about herself, and she never takes the initiative. It was rare that she was thrown on the pillow like this tonight, and she begged herself not to leave. It was like falling into a dream. After saying a few words, her eyes fell on her rosy lips, and she lowered her head and kissed it.
Xiao Qiao hummed a few times and struggled to break free: "Okay, you want to stay, you can't lie to me..."
Wei Shao unbuttoned her clothes and kissed her chest and neck: "...Well...I know..."
…
After the last night, one was smugly trying to please him, and the other wanted to ask him for something else. The two hugged and rubbed together for a long time, but it was a rare romance between a husband and a concubine.
After Wei Shao slept contentedly, Xiao Qiao, who had dealt with him for two consecutive nights, was really tired, curled up beside him, closed his eyes and entered Heitian Township.
Wei Shao went out early the next morning. Xiao Qiao stayed in Beiwu as usual, and when he came back in the afternoon, he had no intention of doing anything else, so he just waited for Wei Shao to come back. I didn't see anyone until it got dark. I slowly felt uneasy in my heart.
When Xiao Qiao waited until Hai Shizhong, she heard footsteps coming from the outer courtyard, and then the servant girl called "Men". Immediately ran out to meet him, saw Wei Shao hurried up the steps, and the two met at the door.
When she saw his expression, her heart skipped a beat.
"Husband, what do you say?"
Although I have already decided in my heart, I was deceived by him last night. But I still had the last bit of luck. Xiao Qiao looked at him and asked.
When Wei Shao entered the room, he didn't answer her immediately. He told the servants and women to go out, and then he said solemnly, "It's not that I don't want to stay with you. It's just that I can't get away. Shangdang's geography is important, two hundred miles to the east is a pot. We must not make any mistakes when we pass the customs and restrain Taihang. Besides, the frontier defense is also undergoing major adjustments in the past few days, and I have to keep enough generals to protect Youzhou.
His tone was not too serious compared to when he was in bed last night.
Xiao Qiao bit her lip and stood in front of him, hoping that he would not speak.
Wei Shao met her two eyes with hints of resentment, coughed a little uncomfortably, then lifted his feet and walked to the bathroom, saying, "There are so many facts today, and I'm also tired. I'll settle earlier. Bar."
Xiao Qiao stared at his back, and even suspected that when he left the room this morning, he didn't feel relieved about what he promised himself in bed last night. Heart is depressed and annoyed.
I only understand that if there is nothing else, I might be able to have a fight with him again. When I encounter the arrangement of marching and dispatching troops to fight, if I hold on to what he promised in bed last night and don’t let it go, I’m afraid the next moment, He was going to blame himself for being unreasonable.
Xiao Qiao stopped talking. Seeing that it was not too early, I went to bed and lay down first.
Wei Shao came out of the bath room and saw her lying down with her eyes closed and her thoughts heavy, she climbed up and hugged her, coaxing: "I know you can't bear me, and I don't want to be separated from you. But this time I'm real. I can't escape. When this battle is over, I will definitely go home to accompany you as soon as possible."
Xiao Qiao knew that things couldn't be changed. He suppressed the disappointment, annoyance, confusion, and a trace of anger in his heart. He didn't bother to look at his face again, turned his back and pulled the quilt to cover his head.
…
Wei Shao sent troops to leave Yuyang three days later at the fifth watch.
Over the years, military expeditions like this have long been commonplace. But Mrs. Xu still put on neat clothes regardless of her illness, and insisted on sending Wei Shao outside the gate in person.
Zhu Shi also finally showed his face from the east room and came out to show off.
Just like the previous time when he conquered Shiyi, the army outside the city was already ready to go. Amidst the roaring illumination of fire sticks, a group of generals stood in high spirits on both sides of the gate of Wei Mansion.
Wei Shao's clothes and armor were bright, and under the reflection of the flaming fire stick at the door, Yingwei was like a **** of war. He turned around, asked Mrs. Xu to stop, and said goodbye to Mrs. Xu. His eyes fell on Xiao Qiao's face, who was holding Mrs. Xu's arm.
Xiao Qiao and Madam Xu stood side by side in the middle of the gate, watching Wei Shao and the group of generals riding away from their backs, and when the group of horses completely disappeared in the last shadow before dawn, Fang turned around.
It was still very early, and it was past five o'clock. In the late autumn in the north, the sky is not yet bright at this moment, but in the distant eastern sky, a piece of white fish belly floated up before dawn.
Xiao Qiao still held the arm of the old woman beside her, and walked in slowly with her. Zhong Li and others followed.
Although Mrs. Xu had not recovered from her illness and got up early again, her spirit seemed to be at the best moment these days.
One of her hands was on Xiao Qiao's. Xiao Qiao felt a ray of warmth from her skinny palms.
"You probably don't know yet," Mrs. Xu said to Xiao Qiao, walking slowly on the corridor paved with flat bluestones, "since Shao'er was seventeen years old when she personally took charge of the army, until now, over the years, every When he goes out from Yuyang, I will definitely send him, and when he comes back, I will definitely welcome him. This morning is the 21st time."
Joe was silent.
On the corner of Mrs. Xu's lips, there was a hint of a proud smile: "He has suffered two major injuries, numerous minor injuries, and he has also been in trouble, but fortunately, he is stoic, he exercised his power decisively, and he has great ancestors. Zong Huyou can always turn a danger into a safe one."
"I'm getting old. In the future, if I'm not here, no matter whether it is victory or defeat, you will continue to send him on the expedition for me and welcome him back, just like today. Would you like to?"
Xiao Qiao looked at Madam Xu, and when she saw her turn her head, she looked at herself with a smile. A burst of enthusiasm slowly poured out of my heart.
With Madam Xu's state of mind and what Leling Doctor said that day, Xiao Qiao couldn't believe it anyway. If it wasn't for an external cause, she would have suddenly gotten sicker and died just like in her previous life!
She held Madam Xu's thin hand tightly with her backhand, and said word by word, "Grandmother, you will definitely live a long life! I don't want to greet my husband alone. I want to join my grandmother, like Send him off today like this, and welcome him back!"
Madam Xu was stunned for a moment, and by the light of dawn, she stared at Xiao Qiao for a moment and laughed.
"Yes. That's right! My grandmother will live to be a hundred years old, and she is still waiting for her great-grandson!"
she laughed.
