Those days when Mrs. Yazhai

There are always strong winds on the mountain these days, and the watermelon vines that have been arranged are always blown up again and again.Grandpa Lu couldn't help sighing every day looking at the mess in the melon field.

Shen Qi followed Chang'an to the field and sighed when he saw the appearance of the field.

It was really too messy, the melons and vines ran amok in the field as if they were in a fight, not at all like they were when they were just finished.

"Is there no way to keep them from being disturbed by the wind?" Shen Qi asked while tugging at Chang An's sleeve.

Chang An smiled, and helped Shen Xi straighten his wind-torn hair, and replied: "When they grow up, they won't be messed up."

"what about now?"

"Recently, the wind has been dense and strong, so we can only keep tidying up."

Shen Qi looked at the messy melon vines and sighed, "It's so difficult to grow watermelons."

The wind was really strong, and it made Shen Xi unable to stand still, so Chang An took advantage of the situation and half embraced Shen Xi in his arms to protect him.Feeling the warm and fragrant nephrite in his arms, Chang An couldn't help saying: "But watermelon is very sweet, and the difficulty is worth it."

Ke'er and Xiaoyin, who arrived late, happened to see the two of them hugging each other again. Although they were used to it these days, Ke'er couldn't help but muttered in a low voice when they passed by them: "How can you Really, hugging all day long will teach children badly."

Shen Qi blushed a little, struggled in Chang An's arms and wanted to get out, "Chang An let me go, someone is here."

Chang An hugged him even tighter, "It's windy, let's loosen later."

The two of them helped tidy up for a while before they were called back by the third uncle.

Although they had already sat down and had a good chat with the third uncle, the person who called them was too eager, and Shen Xi was worried that something bad would happen, so he was still a little afraid to face the third uncle.

He nervously grabbed Chang'an's sleeve and sat in front of the third uncle, wondering what the third uncle was looking for when they came here.

The third uncle looked at Shen Qi's cautious look, smiled slightly, and said, "Madam is still afraid of me?"

Shen Qi shook his head in a panic, "I'm not afraid, I'm just nervous."

"Don't be nervous, I just asked you to taste the watermelon." Saying that, a big watermelon came out from behind.

Chang An asked in surprise, "Where did you get the watermelon?"

"Your Uncle Ding sent it up, saying that this time the watermelon is big and sweet, and I want you to try it."

It turned out to be just eating watermelon.

Shen Qi secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

The third uncle cut open the watermelon, picked the biggest piece and handed it to Shen Qi, and said with a smile: "It's very sunny outside, and the wind is not too cold, and it's hard work in the field, so I'll be lazy if I ask you to come back."

Shen Qi hastily took the bright red watermelon, "Thank you third uncle."

"You're welcome." The third uncle handed another piece to Chang'an, and said with a smile: "You guys eat here, and then help them take some to the field after eating."

He said he was going to take it to the field, but when he really wanted to take it, he found that there was nothing to pack.

So Shen Qi volunteered to go out to look for tools.

Chang An originally wanted to go with him, but the third uncle stopped him, as if he wanted to talk to him alone.

Sure enough, as soon as Shen Qi left the house, the third uncle said with a solemn expression: "General Ye just came to see me and wanted to ask us for a favor."

Chang An frowned and asked, "What can I help you with?"

"The uncle of the third prince used to be an official in the court, but he resigned and returned to his hometown for some reason. Recently, the third prince asked him to go to the imperial city to help deal with Prime Minister Ye. His carriage and horses will pass by us. General Ye hopes that we can take He stopped."

Chang An frowned even more after hearing this, "How could he think of asking us for help?"

"Because if we don't help with this, your wife may lose his uncle and cousin. General Ye has figured it out, and you don't want your wife to be sad."

"..."

After a while of silence, Third Uncle suddenly said, "We have to help with this."

"why?"

The third uncle downed a glass of wine, and then said slowly, "The third prince's uncle is called Wu Sun."

As soon as the name came out, Chang An began to tremble all over.

Wu Sun was the Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites back then, and it was this Wu Shangshu who put a knife on his mother's neck and forced his father to death.

"So Uncle San means..."

The third uncle poured himself a glass of wine, played with it in his hand, and drank it down in one gulp. He said lightly, "Although these years have passed, I think some things still need to be settled."

"Okay." Chang'an nodded immediately, "I'll go down the mountain and gather people to get ready."

After finishing speaking, he added, "Don't let Madam know, he will be worried."

——

Lu Heng and Ye Linjiang were about to set off and return to the imperial city, Shen Qi took Jie'er and Chang'an down the mountain early in the morning to see them off.

But when he got to the foot of the mountain, he realized that it was not their turn to send someone away.

The people at the foot of the mountain heard that the champion was going to pick up his parents to go to the imperial city, and they lined the road to see off Shili Changjie.

Shen Qi didn't even get close to Lu Heng's house, so he could only quietly watch him off in the crowd.

Uncle Lu looked very happy. He didn't even want to sit in the prepared carriage. He and Lu Heng rode in front of the convoy, squinting and smiling to thank the people who came to see him off.

Standing beside Shen Qi were two girls, one tall and the other low.

The tall girl seemed to be very expressive, and kept calling Lu Heng's name at the top of her voice.The girl at the bottom was very reserved, Shen Xi never heard her speak.

It wasn't until Lu Heng's convoy passed by slowly that Shen Qi heard the girl at the bottom say: "From now on, there will be no candied haws from Uncle Lu."

The tall girl standing beside her said: "Uncle Lu has gone to live a better life, you are not happy for him but only care about candied haws?"

"Why do you misinterpret my meaning? I just feel that I will never see Uncle Lu again."

The tall girl smiled, touched the girl's arm, and joked: "We can't see Uncle Lu again, but you are different. Didn't you and Mr. Lu grow up together? I heard that this time I even brought you a gift when I came back, don’t you two..."

The short girl suddenly raised her voice and scolded, "What are you talking about!"

"What's the matter? When you were young, didn't you two look as good as wearing a pair of pants? When he was studying, didn't you often help him buy all kinds of books and give him all kinds of food?"

"You don't understand." The lower girl sighed suddenly, "He's the champion now, and I'm just an illiterate wild girl, so we're not suitable." The girl suddenly choked up and said, "He didn't give What gift did I bring? The gift was for my parents. He simply asked me how I was doing recently. His meaning was already obvious, and it was impossible for us. "

Shen Qi heard this and glanced at the girl quietly.

Although the girl was smiling, her eyes were full of tears.

Chang An gently rubbed Shen Qi's hand, and drew Shen Qi's attention back. "Ma'am, don't listen, you will be sad."

Ke'er has also been secretly listening to the conversation between the two girls. He frowned in dissatisfaction at the end, and muttered in a low voice, "What's the matter with Lu Heng? Next time I see him, I have to beat him hard."
