After autumn, winter gradually entered, and there were several heavy snowfalls one after another.
The environment in the border town is not as good as other places. It has snowed a few times and the road has become difficult to walk.
Everyone thought that it was time for Zhang Su to go back to the capital. One, the weather here is not good, and it is not convenient to go anywhere. Two, the new year is slowly approaching, Zhang Su should go home for the New Year. As a result, Zhang Su didn't come as they expected. He didn't go home after the new year, and he came to their small mountain village abnormally, and he didn't stay in the county seat anymore.
After Zhang Su came, he didn't know if it was Su Qingbai's illusion, but he always felt that Xu Qian was much quieter.
Whenever Zhang Su came, he and Su Lingchuan always liked to talk about the current situation of the imperial court.
Today Su Qingbai felt that Zhang Su was talking about it specifically for him.
The family gathered around the table to eat, and Zhang Su began to spit, "I heard that King Yue returned to Beijing a month ago."
Su Lingchuan listened silently. Su Huai, who had listened to him, asked Zhang Su, "In this way, with the help of King Yue, will the third prince be able to secure that seat?"
Zhang Su took a sip of the wine he brought, shook his head inscrutablely, and then suddenly looked at Su Qingbai.
Su Qingbai was eating, with him staring at him, how could he eat. "What's wrong?"
Zhang Su smiled at him, "We're talking about the King of Yue...you don't want to bury your head in eating, but at least have a few drinks with us and have a chat." As he spoke, he poured Su Qingbai a glass of wine.
Su Qingbai took a sip from the wine glass.
On the side, Su Caicai saw that everyone had it, but he didn't, so he was greedy and wanted to drink it. Su Huai dipped the tip of the chopsticks, and then brought it to Su Caicai's mouth.
Su Caicai took a sip, frowned, and stopped drinking.
Mrs. Su couldn't help but say to him, how could a child as young as Su Caicai drink alcohol.
Su Huai had no choice but to bow her head and admit her mistake.
The topic returned to King Yue.
Zhang Su said, "Qingbai, what do you think?" Qingbai and the king of Yue looked familiar, so Zhang Su asked him this. I also have the idea that maybe Su Qingbai can know something.
"How can I know what King Yue is thinking?" Su Qingbai said.
When he said this, Zhang Su guessed that he didn't want to say it, so he stopped asking him, and turned around to continue talking with Su Huai.
Su Qingbai also has Jiang Mao in his heart. After six months, Su Caicai will walk a few steps, but there is no news from Jiang Mao.
Su Qingbai was worried that his family could not leave this city. Jiang Mao was far away in the capital, and if something happened, he was helpless here. Similarly, if Jiang Mao stayed in the capital and did not come back, there was nothing he could do.
Su Qingbai didn't mention the worry in his heart, the person he had in his heart was braving the wind and snow, and was on his way to the border town.
It has been a month since Jiang Mao came to this city.
It was an afternoon, he rode his horse to the border town, arranged a group of men, and thought of his sweetheart in the mountain village, Jiang Mao almost stopped and drove to the small mountain village by himself.
It took more than half a year to leave, and it was the end of summer when I left, and it was already cold spring when I came back.
Jiang Mao misses him very much.
A while ago, the image of worshiping the Buddha wholeheartedly and not caring about worldly affairs was let go. Concubine Lou suddenly entered the mundane world. For some chores, until now, even Jiang Mao's friends and relatives have to be persuaded, saying that making friends depends on the character of the other party. You are already in your twenties, others should have children at this age, etc.
In the eyes of outsiders, it seems that he wants to make up for the neglect of his son for many years.
Of course, others would think so, mostly because of Jiang Mao's face, no matter what other people think in their hearts, they must be boasting.
Concubine Lou gave birth to the original body, and basically has no mother-child relationship with the original body. In terms of this body, he will ensure that she has no worries about food and clothing, otherwise, it depends on Concubine Lou's peace of mind.
During the Chinese New Year, Jiang Mao had no patience to deal with these people in the capital.
Just after the New Year's Eve, Jiang Mao didn't have time to spend with her, and after explaining the affairs of the capital, he came to the border town to meet the person he was thinking of.
After traveling for a month, I finally arrived at the county town here.
Afraid of alarming the people in Su Qingbai's village, Jiang Mao came to the small mountain village alone.
It was mid-afternoon at this time, and wisps of smoke were already billowing from the roofs of people who had had dinner early.
Jiang Mao looked at the small village from a distance, waved his horsewhip, and ran towards the village.
This village is a bit remote, the path is quite narrow, and it is not easy to walk, because it is warmer than the capital, and the snow has melted, so the road is a bit muddy, and small puddles can be seen on the side of the road from time to time.
Not far ahead, there was a child in round clothes, who didn't know what to play on the muddy roadside.
Jiang Mao deliberately slowed down the speed.
But even so, splashes of water were inevitable wherever the horseshoes went.
The road is so narrow, it must have splashed the child.
The child also wanted to hide subconsciously, but he seemed to be wearing too much clothes, and his movements were not very convenient. He originally wanted to hide, but one of them lost his footing and plunged into the muddy water.
Jiang Mao carried him up, only to see that his little face was covered with muddy water, and his clothes were obviously a little wet.
