Han family courtyard.
"Yuxi, how are you doing recently?"
Standing side by side with Han Yuxi under the sycamore tree in the yard, Li Zexuan had a lot to say in his heart, but he couldn't say it out. He finally choked for a long time before he could say such a meaningless sentence.
When Han Yuxi saw Li Zexuan walking straight towards her, she felt very embarrassed. Now when she heard these meaningless words, she couldn't help but roll her eyes secretly. She secretly complained that Li Zexuan's emotional intelligence response was really slow. She felt that she had already behaved very badly. It was obvious, but Li Zexuan just couldn't understand her feelings.
She had also doubted whether Li Zexuan already had someone he liked, but then she saw that Li Zexuan had always been a loner and always liked to be around her. This proved that Li Zexuan didn't like anyone and he didn't hate her either. she.
After much deliberation, Han Yuxi could only attribute it to Li Zexuan's emotional intelligence being dull.
"Well, I've been doing pretty well lately, but I just... have some thoughts..."
Han Yuxi accidentally blurted out her true thoughts, but luckily she woke up and shut up in time.
"What are you thinking about? What are you thinking about?"
Li Zexuan felt happy and asked quickly with eyes full of hope.
"I miss you so much."
Han Yuxi secretly glanced at Li Zexuan's handsome face and understood the expectation in his eyes. Although she was happy in her heart, she still swallowed her words. How could her daughter's family take the initiative to admit such a thing? So her mind changed quickly. , quickly thought of this excuse and rounded it off.
"Oh, you miss Tiedan." Li Zexuan was overjoyed by this sharp turn and scratched his head in disappointment.
"Yu Xi, go get some food and wine. General Qin, General Cheng and the young master will all have dinner at our house at noon."
After the three old men in the yard finished crying, Han Lizheng came over and said to Han Yuxi.
"Yes, daddy, my daughter will go right away."
Han Yuxi responded, glanced at Li Zexuan, and walked to the kitchen.
Today was the first time she saw her father crying. She secretly thought about making something delicious for lunch so that her father would no longer be so sad.
"Master, General Qin, General Cheng, let's go sit in the room."
"Uncle Han, please go in and sit down with Uncle Qin and Uncle Cheng. I have brought some cakes, wine and food. Now I will take them to the kitchen for Yu Xi to warm them up."
After Li Zexuan finished speaking, he quickly went outside the yard to get the package from the horse.
Han Lizheng could only take Cheng Yaojin and Qin Shubao into the room to rest, but before Cheng Yaojin went in, he glanced at Li Zexuan suspiciously.
… …
"Yuxi, you don't need to cook other dishes. I brought a lot of dishes. You can just heat them up and eat them."
Li Zexuan walked into the kitchen carrying a large food box and said.
When he came today, he not only brought two bottles of wine for Cheng Yaojin, he also ordered the cook at home to cook several dishes that only the Li family could eat, and brought them over. Because he knew that Qin Shubao and Cheng Yaojin would definitely have dinner at Han Lizheng's house when they came, and Han Yuxi would be busy preparing a large table of food. He didn't want her to work too hard, so he did this.
"Ah? Master, how is this good? Isn't it too rude?"
Han Yuxi was a little hesitant. The two people who came today were both founding fathers of the country. It was unreasonable to heat up the dishes they had cooked for them.
"Hey, there's nothing rude about it. Yu Xi, just listen to me. It'll be okay. Uncle Qin and Uncle Cheng will definitely have no objections."
Li Zexuan said with certainty.
Qin Qiong and Cheng Yaojin probably haven't eaten pork dishes such as braised pork and braised lion's head, so it would be strange if they had any objections to this.
Seeing Li Zexuan's firmness, Han Yuxi finally nodded.
"Yuxi, let me help you!"
Li Zexuan wanted to stay here for a while, staying with the beautiful woman, the air smelled particularly good.
"Ah! Master, please get out quickly. How can you be in the kitchen?"
When Han Yuxi heard this, she hurriedly pushed Li Zexuan out of the kitchen. Although she also liked staying with Li Zexuan, she still understood the principle of "a gentleman stays away from the kitchen".
"Hey, Yu Xi, don't push me, let me help you..."
Li Zexuan had no choice but to go back to the front hall to accompany the three old men.
In the room, Qin Shubao was talking to Han Lizheng. Seeing Li Zexuan come in, the two nodded to him as a greeting. Cheng Yaojin specifically gave Li Zexuan a very strange look, which made Li Zexuan confused.
"Tianhu, our Qin family has owed you all these years."
Qin Qiong looked at the bare walls in the front hall and sighed.
Han Li was saying hurriedly: "I am scared. Back then, I was a close soldier of the general. It was my duty to protect the general. The general does not owe me anything."
Qin Qiong patted Han Tianhu on the shoulder and said in a deep voice:
"You don't have to say that. I can still tell the difference between grudges and grudges. How can I, Qin Qiong, be a person who refuses to repay my kindness? I discussed with my wife that I would like to accept Yuxi as my adopted daughter. In this way, this child can also be a righteous daughter in the future. I have a glorious identity and can marry into a good family. I came here today to ask for your opinion."
Han Tianhu stood up in surprise, bowed and said: "How can this be done? General Qin is among the great princes of the country, how can my family be so high up?"
Qin Qiong shouted displeased: "Nonsense! Didn't my current status come from the hard work of you former battlefield warriors? If you hadn't risked your life to block an arrow for me, I might have died long ago. , now maybe there won’t be any Duke Yi!
Besides, if you don’t think about yourself, don’t you think about the child Yu Xi? I have also heard that this child had to support a family all by herself in the years when you left. She suffered so much. As a father, you don’t want her to marry a good family and enjoy happiness for the rest of her life? "
Qin Qiong's words made Han Lizheng hesitate in his heart. As a father, he knew somewhat about his daughter's thoughts. Now that his young master had been granted the title of baronet, his daughter was just a peasant girl. The status gap was really too big.
Even though his young master doesn't care about his status and family status, he can't avoid other people's gossip. Therefore, he has never been optimistic about his daughter's relationship with Li Zexuan. However, he owes his daughter a lot, and it is impossible to stop her.
Now Qin Qiong's proposal gave him a glimmer of hope. As long as his daughter could live a good life in the future, it would be worth it even if he, Han Tianhu, had the nerve to accept this love today, even if he was accused of climbing a high tree in the future.
Han Lizheng looked at Li Zexuan, finally gritted his teeth and made up his mind, kneeling down on one knee: "I would like to thank the general for your kindness. Unfortunately, I am disabled now and cannot protect the general. If there is an afterlife, I will definitely live as a cow or a horse, with the title Grass in return!"
Qin Qiong quickly pulled Han Lizheng up and said loudly: "Tianhu, why do you need to be so polite? You don't owe me anything in the first place. What I did today is my repayment of gratitude to you. You don't have to feel indebted."
Cheng Yaojin also helped: "Second Brother Qin is saying, Han Tianhu, you are a man. I, Cheng, like an upright man like you. You must have a few drinks with me later!"
Han Tianhu smiled and cupped his hands and said: "How dare you disobey your order? My subordinate's drinking capacity in the army was very good. I'm afraid that General Cheng won't be able to drink it!"
Cheng Yaojin immediately slapped the table and said anxiously: "Oh, what a big tone, I will give you Han Tianhu a long experience later and let you know what a massive amount is!"
Li Zexuan looked at this warm scene and felt very happy.
Although Han Lizheng had military merits, he was a deserter after all. It was very difficult and unrealistic for the court to completely overturn his conviction and reward him based on his merits. Now that he has received such a result, it seems good.
