Zhong Mingwei sighed silently, put down the book in his hand, and turned to Ah Chou. Shen Sheng said: "When you bought the book, how did you tell them?"
"No... I didn't say anything," Ah Chou hurriedly avoided Zhong Mingwei's gaze. In front of Zhong Mingwei, even if she was killed, she would not be able to say that she was buying books for her man. Knowing that Zhong Mingwei is still waiting for his answer. A-chou murmured for a long time, and then boldly looked at the man, while humming ferociously. "The shopkeeper said that as long as he is a man, he will definitely like to read this book. What's the matter? Don't you like to read it?"
The corner of Zhong Mingwei's mouth twitched. Then two words popped out of my mouth with difficulty: "... I like it."
"That's it. You can read a book, I'm going out to wash clothes." Ah Chou felt relieved immediately, and felt that a penny was not in vain. Immediately got up and walked outside.
"Help me out and sit for a while. I'll go wash your clothes with you." Zhong Mingwei put down the bottle or plum in his hand that had been squeezed out of water. Sitting up straight, he stretched out his hand to Ah Chou.
"What's there to do with washing clothes? Besides, it's going to be dark soon. It's getting cold, so I'll freeze you carefully." A Chou said to the books on the bed, "There are so many books that are not enough for you to read." ? You can just read in the room."
"I'll save it to watch at night." Zhong Mingwei looked uncomfortable.
"Why do you want to watch it at night?" A Chou looked puzzled, "wasting candles and burning your eyes. Just watch it now."
The corner of Zhong Mingwei's mouth twitched: "...I'll just watch it at night!"
The first day of August in the thirty-second year of Jiasheng
capital.
Compassionate Palace.
"Queen Mother, Pang Yi is here." Bi Qiao hurried in to report.
"Let him come in," the queen mother put down the beads in her hand, took a sip of the teacup while taking a shallow sip, "brew Taiping Monkey Queen for General Pang."
"Yes, this servant obeys." Bi Qiao bowed and retreated in a hurry.
After a while, Bi Qiao led a burly and tall man into the warm pavilion. The man was probably in his thirties, with dark and rough skin, and a very strong build. One look at this airs, he must be a military commander, not someone else, but Pang Yi.
"The last general, Pang Yi, has met the queen mother, and respectfully invites the queen mother to be safe." Pang Yi came in and bowed down to the queen mother.
"Get up," the queen mother said slowly after Pang Yi kowtowed three times, while raising her hand to Bi Qiao, "Give General Pang an embroidery pier."
"Yes," Bi Qiao moved the pier over in a hurry, "General Pang please."
"Thank you, Queen Mother." Although he was sitting, Pang Yi's back stretched straight.
"Please, General Pang." Bi Qiao served tea, then bowed and left.
"How does it taste?" The Queen Mother said slowly while holding the tea lid, "Ai Jia remembers that you like Taiping Houkui the most."
"Thank you Queen Mother for your concern," Pang Yi said hurriedly, sighing softly while taking a sip of tea, "The last general has not had such a good Taiping Houkui in twenty years, thank you Queen Mother."
"Since I like it, I will take some with me when I leave. Knowing that you are here, Aijia specially asked Bi Qiao to prepare a few jars of Taiping Houkui for you." The queen mother said.
"Yes, the late general would like to thank the queen mother," Pang Yi said in a deep voice, quite moved, "The queen mother really loves the young general too much."
"You and Mingwei grew up together, Mingwei regards you as a brother, and you are naturally different from others in Aijia's heart," the queen mother said slowly, while sighing softly, paused and said, "As soon as you got the news this time, you put aside your future in Nanjiang and hurried back to Beijing, which shows that your affection for Ming Wei has not changed."
"Your Highness is the benefactor of the last general. Without His Highness, there would be no last general today. The last general has nothing but loyalty," Pang Yi said as he put down his tea bowl, knelt down on the ground again, and said with a heavy face , "The end general came back this time, knowing that he does not have the ability to rescue His Highness from fire and water, but he also hopes to go to Ninggu Pagoda to protect His Highness earlier, please allow the Queen Mother."
