My ancient leisure life

Chapter 34

"Hongmei, why are you here?"

Xu Nuo sat in the car in a daze, heard Cheng Ge talking, rubbed his eyes and poked his head out of the car window, and saw Cheng Hongmei standing at the door of his house.

After inviting people in, Cheng Hongmei explained the purpose of coming, to express her gratitude for helping her daughter last time. "I made two pairs of shoes, one pair for the elder brother and the younger brother Nuo."

She took out the eggs she brought and a piece of meat she bought, which was considered a very heavy gift.As the saying goes, if you reach out and don't hit someone with a smile on your face, let alone a gift-giver, you will naturally be warmly entertained if you promise.

"Brother." Cheng Hongmei looked at Xu Nuo and went to the kitchen, "Now that you are living such a good life, you should also think about marrying a wife. Why don't you take advantage of the slack season to build up the house, and then look for marriage."

"I didn't think about it." Cheng Ge shook his head and said, "I'm doing well now, forget about those things."

There are too many secrets about him, it is not appropriate to marry a wife and have children.Moreover, he is living well with Xu Nuo now, and he doesn't want to make any changes.

His promise to stay by Xu Nuo's side all the time is not empty words, he will only say it if it is true.His current thinking is still the same as before, leaving when Xu Nuo doesn't need him anymore, but seeing how tightly Xu Nuo looks at him, it's impossible in a short time.

"However, elder brother is getting older, and it will be even more difficult to talk about marriage in the future. What should we do then?" Seeing that he didn't care, Cheng Hongmei couldn't help but asked anxiously.

"Then don't marry." Cheng Ge's attitude was firm, without a hint of relaxation.

"That Nuo kid always wants to say goodbye, can't you stay here all the time?" Cheng Hongmei said.

"We'll talk about it when the time comes." Cheng Ge smiled and said, "You don't need to worry about this, I know it well."

He poured Cheng Hongmei a glass of water and asked, "How is the family, how are the children?"

"Okay." Speaking of this, Cheng Hongmei smiled, "The two children still have to visit uncle, I said you were busy so you didn't bring them here."

At this time, Xu Nuo came in, holding something in his hand, with a calm expression on his face.Putting things aside, he didn't participate in their sibling chatter, but just took the water Cheng Ge poured for him and drank silently.

The brothers and sisters are not talkative people, after talking about their parents for a while, there was nothing else to talk about, Cheng Hongmei got up and said: "Mother cooked the meal, and said that I will let the elder brother go back to eat, and the boy Nuo can go too."

"No, it's not suitable for your family to reunite." Xu Nuo said with a smile.

Cheng Ge glanced at him sideways, and said to Cheng Hongmei: "I won't go, you can go back and tell me, I'm a little tired today, I'll go there another day."

"Oh." Cheng Hongmei hesitated for a moment, and said nothing, "Then I'll go back first."

"Tut tsk tsk." Seeing Cheng Ge sending someone back, Xu Nuo said in a strange way: "It would be nice to have a family reunion, why should it be deserted here."

He picked up a greased paper bag on the side, opened it to find a roast chicken, and viciously tore off a chicken leg. Looking at Cheng Ge, he bit it up and tore off a piece of meat, chewing with his teeth.

"You!" Cheng Ge was amused by his childish behavior, "Didn't you just hear the few words Hongmei said, why should you be so angry?"

"I'll tell you again solemnly." Cheng Ge put away his smiling face and said seriously: "I will stay with you until you don't need it, whether you believe it or not."

"Hmph." Xu Nuo sneered: "Okay! You don't even think about stepping out of this house in this life. I'll see if you build a house or marry a wife."

Xu Nuo knew that Cheng Ge treated him well, and even obeyed everything, but if he said that he would stay at his house to take care of him without getting married, he would not believe it.

He has never thought about getting married, but he can't say that he will never marry in the future, so he is still a little bit angrily, even he is baffled.

In the future, they will start their own families, have their own families and lovers, and live their own lives alone. Isn't this a normal thing?Why should I care so much, I wish I could bite Cheng Ge twice.

"Okay, I'm hungry, let's eat." Cheng Ge didn't want to talk about this, Xu Nuo was always very sensitive, so he staggered the topic.

"Eat, I'll eat it all for you." Xu Nuo pushed the roast chicken and a pack of sauced meat to him, got up to cook with a bad face.

He never delays Cheng Ge's problem of eating and drinking.In his consciousness, Cheng Ge is so strong, how can he not eat enough, so whenever Cheng Ge mentions eating, he will cook immediately, and he doesn't want him to be hungry at all.

Cheng Ge shook his head, and felt relieved to see that he was still angry, but he didn't delay to cook.

Xu Nuo is very concerned about his affairs, and thinks about everything about eating, drinking and dressing, and prepares the best for him.Three meals a day are prepared for him every little bit. For such a young boy, he feels that he can do this, and at the same time he feels warm.

That's why he stayed here, everything is based on promises, and everything wants to go according to his wishes.If he didn't know how to cook other than grilling some meat, he wouldn't ask Xu Nuo to do it.

Such a good promise deserves to be treated well by him, and now he is sincerely showing his promise.If he can do it, he won't bother to make a promise, and if he can satisfy the wish of the promise, he will try his best to do it.

When Zhou Yuyi got into the car, he opened the thing promised to him, which was wrapped in a piece of paper.He opened it and saw that it was a jade token and two silver tickets.

There were still words on the paper, and they briefly talked about the jade token, and finally jokingly said that if it doesn't work, they will return it to Zhao Kai, and there will be no loss to them.

As for the 1000 taels of silver, it was his travel expenses. If he couldn't live in the capital, or encountered any embarrassing things, he would come back to Qingliu Town and ask him to hire more bodyguards or something.

"Hehe." Zhou Yuyi laughed, promising that although he was out of tune and always said childish and incomprehensible words, it was really heart-warming, how lucky he was to have such a friend.

Thinking about the messy things in the Zhou family, and the fact that the mother-in-law and the others are always acting as demons, making things difficult and humiliating, he doesn't want to come back here, even if he wanders around the world and lives a life like a commoner, he is willing.

How difficult it is to come out this time, the aunt insisted on detaining the eldest brother and two younger sisters, and asked him to travel thousands of miles to visit relatives, a sick child who was always sick and weak, which was simply not kind.

Although at the insistence of their grandfather, they came out as they wished, but the 1000 taels given in the account were deducted, and only 200 taels were given, and nothing else was prepared.

Grandfather secretly gave 1000 taels as a subsidy, but it also made them feel uncomfortable. After all, it is the wife of the main house, and even grandfather has to give face.

And their aunt, let them chill again.Although they didn't object to their visiting relatives at their grandfather's house, they said that what the aunt said was right. Going to so many people was causing trouble for the grandfather, and girls couldn't go out easily, which was bad for their reputation, so they asked the two younger sisters to stay.

In the end, he lost his temper and scolded them. Except for the gifts prepared for his grandfather's family, he didn't pay them a penny. The things for the trip were also prepared by the servants.

"Hehe." Zhou Yuyi sneered this time. This biological mother is not even as good as that cold-blooded father, and sometimes she does some superficial tricks.

Their journey was smooth and smooth, and they arrived in Kyoto safely after more than a month.There is a dark hand who promised Zhou Yuyi to teach Zhao Kai how to play chess, hang out with each other every day, and get along better and better.

As for those noble young masters, they were polite and distant, the Zhou Yuyi brothers didn't come to make friends, and had already rejected the arrangement of their cousins, so they naturally had to keep their distance from those young masters who acted behind their backs.

After arriving in Kyoto, two cousins ​​Wang Wenyou and Wang Xuexue asked, "Will you go back with us, or go to the Zhou Mansion first?"

"Go to visit grandpa first." Zhou Yuxuan said, "This time I mainly visit grandpa, so I should bother my cousins ​​first."

This is what the two brothers discussed. After entering the Zhou Mansion first, it means that they have no freedom, and they may fall out because they want to stay in the capital.

The uncle and the second uncle are in official positions, one of the fourth rank and one of the fifth rank, they are not easily provoked, and it is not impossible to escort them back, so they cannot go to the Zhou mansion according to their grandfather's order.

To them, the Zhou family and the Wang family were strangers. Although they were relatives, they hadn't seen each other for many years and they didn't have much kinship.

And their identities as concubines may not even be as good as the servants in the Zhou Mansion.The same is true of the Wang family. Because of the burden of the aunt, the grandfather lost his official position, and fearing further persecution, the whole family moved to the capital. It is estimated that they can't treat them too much.

For the two cousins ​​who helped them out, the Zhou family brothers kept in mind their kindness, and would repay them naturally when they had the opportunity in the future, but it did not mean that everyone in the Wang family would give a helping hand, they were prepared for this.

The two cousins ​​of the Wang family obviously didn't expect that they would come to the door immediately, and they were obviously hesitant. Zhou Yuxuan smiled lightly and said, "Cousin, please go back and bring a message. I will visit the house tomorrow."

"Oh." Wang Wenyou nodded and agreed. It's not that he didn't want to take them back, but he expressed deep sympathy for their situation, otherwise he wouldn't help.

However, for various reasons, it is not convenient to bring them to the door immediately. "When you go back, you must tell your elders that tomorrow our brothers will wait for our cousins ​​at the house." Wang Wenyou said.

Brother Zhou Yuxuan, led by them, bid farewell to the noble sons who accompanied them all the way, and expressed their gratitude for taking care of them all the way.

Zhao Kai pulled Zhou Yuyi and said, "If you have time, you must visit me in the Zhao Mansion." He told him the address and asked him where he was staying.

Zhou Yuyi hesitated for a moment, but chose to tell him: "We need to find an inn to settle down. We don't know where to go yet. I will inform you when I have the specific address."

"What?" Zhao Kai opened his mouth wide in surprise, with an expression of disbelief.

But seeing the wry smile on Zhou Yuyi's mouth, he knew that there might be many problems in it. He glanced at the Wang family brothers and saw that they were saying goodbye, so he couldn't help frowning and his face was a little gloomy.

He bowed his head and thought for a while, waved to Zhou Yuyi, whispered a few words in his ear, and then said with a slight smile, "Settle down first, and I'll look for you in two days. Don't be in a hurry, rest for a few more days."
