Chapter 1560 Returning home at night
Qi Hong also saw the face of the man in the hat, was startled and said in a lost voice: "Husband...Madam..." The man in the hat suddenly became the charming Liu Meiniang.
However, Mei Niang's dress now is very different from usual. She is wearing a gray long gown, a black belt around her waist, and a man's hair bun. This dress is like some young men from a well-off family. She is not a family wealth, but she is not poor. Her face is fair and tender, without any flaws, and is as crystal clear as white jade. If she is really a man, she is also very handsome.
Qi Hong only then realized why Mei Niang was a little strange when she came in just now. Mei Niang had a bulge in front and a curved back, and she felt very curved. Although she was on her long gown, her buttocks were still a bit perky. Unlike ordinary men, her plump breasts were not as spectacular as before. Qi Hong also understood that this lady was probably doing tricks on her chest, such as having a tie tie. Otherwise, with her angry figure, anyone could tell at a glance that she was dressed as a man.
Mei Niang ignored Chu Huan's scolding and asked, with a charming look on her face and said in a delicate manner: "Honey, are you hungry? I'll let them make a bowl of noodles for you?" She looked at Chu Huan's table and said: "Oh, why are you eating two steamed buns? When you go out, you have to pay attention to your body. No, when you find a good place, I have to replenish you with big fish and meat. Hey, my husband, why are you staring at me? I have flowers on my face? Well, people know that they are very beautiful, but you can't keep staring at this, they will be very shy...!"
Chu Huan was amused, but she had a cold face and raised her hand to point outside, "Now go out, ride a horse, go back to Shuoquan, stay at home honestly, if you are disobedient..."
Mei Niang blinked her eyes, and Chuchu asked pitifully, "What will happen if she is disobedient?"
"Family law serves!"
Mei Niang glanced at Qi Hong not far away and said in a slight voice: "Honey, you are really not shy. There is someone next to you, you... why do you say such things?"
Although Chu Huan's so-called family law was nominally a whip, he wanted to use family law against Mei Niang several times, but in the end he was disturbed by Mei Niang and turned into a love of fish and water. When Mei Niang said this, Chu Huan felt a little embarrassed.
Qi Hong is an honest man. He looked up at the sky outside and murmured to himself: "I'm afraid it will rain..." He pretended not to hear anything and left the tea shed.
Chu Huan said with a cold face: "You are really lawless now. The bad habits in the past have not changed yet. I am not joking with you, so I will go back now."
Mei Niang said pitifully: "I heard that you are sick and you have to travel when you are sick. There is no one to take care of you around you, so I followed you to take care of you. You are a ungrateful guy, waste your kindness."
Chu Huan smiled coldly.
"Don't be so fierce, people are afraid." Mei Niang said pitifully: "When you go out, you should always have someone to care about your well-being. If you are cold, someone warms your quilt and gets you food when you are hungry. Isn't that good? You are so far away when you are going back. You are a weak woman, and you are not afraid of meeting bad people on the road."
"There are bad people in the world who can do anything to you?" Chu Huan said lightly.
Mei Niang sighed quietly, "Then you just leave someone here, I don't have to worry about it anymore. Alas, someone pretends to be suffering from an infectious disease and no one can see him... You know that people like to talk about their shortcomings. Even if they go back safely, they may speak nonsense and say something...!"
"You dare!" Chu Huan said coldly.
Mei Niang pouted her little mouth, as if she was about to cry, "Of course they don't dare, but who can guarantee that I won't say the wrong thing... If they know that you are not in the mansion at all, they might look around and make everyone know...!"
Although Chu Huan had a cold face, he was helpless in his heart and asked, "How did you know that I was not in the mansion?"
"You are so... so strong, how can you say you're sick? And you have an infectious disease. They believe it, but they don't believe it." Mei Niang's eyelashes flashed, and her eyes showed a cunning light. "Besides, Qi Hong has been following you all the time, and suddenly you are going to be sent to the Guanwei to do business, so... so I followed him, and then... and then I found that you left Shuoquan secretly...!"
"What does it mean to be sneaky?" Chu Huan said unhappily: "This is a private visit."
Mei Niang smiled and said in a slight voice: "Okay, whatever you say is, you can visit privately on a privately. There can be no one around you. Qi Hong is a man and doesn't know how to take care of people. You are my husband. Of course, I have to take good care of you. Okay, that's it. My husband, where are we going?"
Chu Huan frowned and said, "You really want to enter the pass with me?"
"Did you forget what you said to me?" Mei Niang approached and reached out and helped Chu Huan clean her clothes with great virtuousness. "When you held her, you said you would fly with her and fly with her. Now you don't care about her..."
Chu Huan had no choice but to say, "You can enter the pass, but you have to make three rules. If you violate the agreement, I really don't care about you."
"What?"
"First, what I say, what you listen to, don't take your own initiative." Chu Huan whispered: "Second, don't cause trouble outside, and don't act rashly. Without my instructions, you are not allowed to do anything. Third, you must follow me so that I can see you at all times..."
Mei Niang laughed and said, "I know you can't bear to leave me, and you have to see me all the time. Okay, I'll follow you and let you see enough."
Chu Huan knew that it was almost impossible to let her go back at this time. Seeing Mei Niang's eyes as charming as silk, she couldn't help but lean into her ear and asked in a low voice: "Is it uncomfortable?"
"What?"
Chu Huan glanced at her chest, "I'm afraid I'm going to be strangled by something, I'm afraid it's difficult to breathe, it's really hard for you."
Mei Niang gave him a blank look, but still said softly: "It's a bit uncomfortable. It's not all for you. Why don't you find a place to help me get so happy?"
Chu Huan knew that if he was a quarrel, he would not be a match for Mei Niang. He shook his head, immediately settled the tent, and led Qi Hong and Mei Niang into the pass.
Chu Huan is very familiar with this road. After entering the pass, he was in Tongzhou, Xishan, and stayed in Tongzhou City for a whole night. The situation in Tongzhou looked good and the order was well done.
Mei Niang didn't know that Chu Huan was going to Hexi. She asked several times on the way, but Chu Huan just asked her to follow her, so don't ask too much.
The next day, he set out from Tongzhou and followed the road to Hexi to go north. Chu Huan did not go north, but turned south. Qi Hong was a little confused, even Mei Niang didn't know what Chu Huan was going to do.
More than a day along the way, Chu Huan was getting worse and worse. Qi Hong and Mei Niang were curious. At dusk that day, Chu Huan took the two of them to an outside of a village and stood on the front of the village. Chu Huan finally asked, "Do you know where this is?"
Qi Hong shook his head, and Mei Niang couldn't help but say, "It's not your hometown, right?"
Chu Huan raised his eyebrows and smiled, "You are a bit smarter. Not bad. This is Liujia Village, my hometown."
Qi Hong and Mei Niang were both stunned. Chu Huan had already turned over and got off the horse. At this time, the three of them were wearing hats. Chu Huan led the horse to the lake not far away and put the horses to the grass, saying, "Food some dry food here first. When it gets dark, we will enter the village."
Mei Niang said strangely: "Why have to wait for darkness? Even in your hometown, wouldn't it be better to meet your fellow villagers now?"
Chu Huan shook his head and said, "They are living a peaceful life, don't be broken by me."
When it was dark, Chu Huan saw the lights in the village from afar. He did not go over early. After waiting for a long time, Mei Niang was a little impatient. She didn't know what Chu Huan sold in the gourd. Until the lights in the village went out one by one, Chu Huan said: "I'll go into the village, you can wait here."
Mei Niang immediately got up and said, "I want to be with you."
"You are disobedient?"
Mei Niang said aggrievedly: "You made three rules and asked them to follow you. If they don't keep the agreement, they will be driven away by you."
Chu Huan was stunned, Qi Hong smiled and said, "Duke Chu, I'm here to watch the horses. You and your wife will go and go back quickly."
Chu Huan said "um" and hiked to the village. Mei Niang followed her happily and said as she walked: "This is where you lived when you were a child? Liujia Village? Why are you not your surname Liu?"
Chu Huan ignored him. The two of them entered the village like ghosts. Chu Huan walked close to the wall, obviously not wanting the villagers to find out that Mei Niang followed behind, and there were only a few dozen families in the village. When he walked to a room, Chu Huan looked around and knocked on the door. The room was quiet for a while, then he heard a voice asking, "Who?"
"Uncle Liu, it's me." Chu Huan whispered.
Hearing the footsteps, the lights quickly lit up in the room. Not long after, a "creaking" sound was heard, and the door opened. A man over 50 years old was wearing a single jacket and holding a lamp in his hand. The lights were illuminated. Chu Huan had already taken off his hat. The man glanced at it and looked surprised: "Er... Erlang... Oh, no, Lord Chu... Lord Chu..."
Chu Huan smiled and said, "Uncle Liu, it's been a long time since I saw you. Are you in good health?"
Uncle Liu is naturally Liu Tianfu, the chief of Liujia Village. He immediately let Chu Huan enter the house. Then he poked his head out and looked around. Then he shrank into the house and closed the door. Seeing that Mei Niang beside Chu Huan had taken off her hat and wore half a mask, he was a little surprised, but Mei Niang's face was greasy and beautiful. Although she was wearing half a mask, it did not make people feel afraid.
"Sir Chu, sit down quickly." Liu Tianfu raised his hand and wiped the chair clean with his sleeve. He pulled over another chair and wiped it clean with his sleeve. He said to Mei Niang: "Girl, you sit too."
Mei Niang was stunned and said a little embarrassedly: "Uncle can tell that I am a woman?"
Liu Tianfu was stunned and asked back, "Isn't it?"
Chu Huan chuckled and said, "Mei Niang, sit down. Uncle Liu has been knowledgeable all his life. How can you hide this little trick from Uncle Liu?" In fact, Mei Niang's outfit has no flaws, but when she walks, her waist is used to swinging gently. Although she tries to control it, it is inevitable that there will be flaws occasionally, which is even more conspicuous. Although her chest has been treated, her buttocks are upright and round. For those who are proficient in the world, it is easy to see flaws.
Liu Tianfu was about to pour tea, but Chu Huan hurriedly stopped him and said, "Uncle Liu, I'm here to come and take a look and see how you are doing well."
Liu Tianfu sighed: "They said you have gone to the northwest now and become a high-ranking official. Is that true?"
"No matter what official he is, in Uncle Liu's eyes, he is the Erlang of the Chu family." Chu Huan smiled and said, "Uncle Liu, how are the villagers?"
Liu Tianfu smiled bitterly and said, "It's not a good idea. The Governor wants to quell the rebellion, and the taxes have been increased. Moreover, there are already bandits here. The bandits have come twice a while ago. Fortunately, there are not many people. The young and old in the village go into battle together and beat the bandits away. However, many people were killed and injured. I don't know when the bandits will come back...!"
Chu Huan frowned and asked, "The government doesn't care?"
"I can't control so many, bandits are not one or two." Liu Tianfu sighed: "Some people who still cannot afford taxes have no way to survive, so they rob us... Alas, I won't talk about these."
"Uncle Liu, how about Master Ku now?"
Liu Tianfu's eyelids were finely adjusted, and his expression was a little flustered, but he quickly calmed down and said, "He is very good now. There are still a lot of money you brought. I have been serving you very well."
Chu Huan said: "Thank you for your hard work, Uncle Liu. Yes, he has never woken up?"
Mei Niang was a little strange, not knowing who the "Master Ku" that Chu Huan was talking about was. At this time, she vaguely understood that Chu Huan returned to Liujia Village, probably not just came back to take a look, but seemed to be coming for the "Master Ku".
