The back hall of the palace was brightly lit, and Dugu Min took on the role of an old lady and sat on the main seat with a cold face. Even though there was a charming and charming fiancée standing below him, Yang Ji still felt a cold feeling. There was a swish of evil energy, fearing that a severe beating was about to take place.

In fact, Dugu Min was already impatient with waiting. If Xiao Ying had not persuaded her, she might have rushed to the emperor to snatch his son. She had done this kind of thing before. When Yang Shuang died of illness, Dugu Min was distraught and depressed every day. Queen Dugu was afraid that she would raise Yang Ji to death, so she took Yang Ji to the palace to raise him. However, for Dugu Min, after her husband died, her son was her life. She mistakenly thought that Queen Dugu wanted to rob her son, so she ran to the palace every day to make trouble and rob her son. Queen Dugu had to say that there were more good doctors in the palace than in the palace, and their medical skills were better than those in the palace. If Yang Ji had a slight problem, , can get the best medical treatment, so as to avoid his premature death, so she convinced her.

But Dugu Min still snatched her son back home every three days to raise her. Queen Dugu, who was frightened by her, was so annoyed and had a big headache. In order to send her away, she finally tricked her into going into business to make money. I don’t know what Queen Dugu said at the time, but Dugu Min actually stopped going to the palace to rob people and cause trouble. In the end, she stayed in the shopping mall for more than ten years and built a huge family business.

Today, she also watched Yang Ji's prisoner presentation ceremony near Zhuque Gate. While she was proud of her son's achievements, she was even more eager to talk to her son. If she makes trouble in the palace, Yang Jian, who has been avoiding her, will be unable to do anything to her.

But now that Yang Ji has come home, she is acting like a strict mother again, as if the worries, eagerness, excitement, and expectations before have never happened.

"Auntie, how's your strength?" After returning in triumph, Yang Ji saluted and turned into a slave, with a flattering smile on his face. He was squeezing his shoulders like a dog slave to the sulky old lady.

Dugu Min remained motionless with a sullen face, turning a blind eye to his son's flattery, and said coldly: "How dare the old woman bother me, the great hero of the Sui Dynasty, His Royal Highness the King of Wei, General Youwei, the Governor of Liangzhou, the General Manager of Liangzhou, Are you going to go to Kaifu Yi and Yang Ji and Yang Wenhui, the third minister?"

In the Sui Dynasty, the systems of the five provinces (the five provinces of Shangshu, Menxia, ​​Internal History, Secretary, and Internal Affairs), the Six Ministries, the Twelve Guards, the Nine Temples and Six Supervisors, and the Disciplined Officials were not yet mature and perfect, the scope of jurisdiction was unclear, and the division of powers was unclear. Too many people's interests are involved, so the official positions in the Sui Dynasty are still relatively confusing. Yang Ji has several official positions, both civil and military, both virtual and real, and he is relatively rare here; when Yang Guang was still the king of Jin, he had many official titles. I'm afraid even he himself can't remember it.

"Mom, my son has realized his mistake. He should never go deep into the Great Lakes area alone. But there is nothing I can do!" Yang Ji was forced to do nothing by his mother, so he had to raise his hands and surrender and said: "In that extremely dangerous situation, In the critical situation, I had no choice but to attack the enemy and rescue them. Moreover, as the Turkic army was outside Datong City, I actually encountered no danger at all. The Turks in the Great Lakes area were able to escape on horseback and were everywhere. They were all cattle, sheep, and horses, and we were just killing them for fun, without any trouble or danger at all, and it was just for free."

"I'm not a fool, you can't lie to me at all, and those little girls have told you everything about your trip. This war is all due to your efforts. None of your subordinates can hold a big position. They are just a bunch of trash. .”

Having said that, Dugu Min's tense face looked much better, and he sighed faintly: "But I also know that I can't help myself once I get to the battlefield. Fortunately, I'm lucky this time, and the pressure is all on the defenders of Datong City. If you go, just think of it as an experience that will increase your experience and broaden your horizons. But you can’t just rely on your ability to do anything in the future... You are not your Aye. At least he has Li Chong, Liu Fang, Bin Zhen, etc. by his side. The general is helping to make suggestions, but you don’t even have a decent person around you.”

"I understand!" Yang Ji felt dumbfounded when he heard my mother denounce a group of famous generals and ministers as trash. However, this is understandable. The current group of people are all trumpets who have just entered the town from Novice Village. , it’s normal for me to think they are “waste”, but the world-famous Zhang Xutuo and Yin Shishi have made a good start.

"That's it, that's it! I've said everything I need to say." Dugu Min looked at him in his original clothes, frowned and said: "The house has prepared pomelo leaf bath soup, go and wash away the evil spirits first, and then come back with our mother Let’s talk.”

"Before entering the house, I had already stepped over the brazier and sprinkled pomelo leaf water!" Yang Ji glanced at the sister-in-law and daughter-in-law, and finally understood what the word "sha" meant in "a daughter-in-law becomes a mother-in-law".

Today's mother-in-law is not much older than her daughter-in-law. It would take decades to kill her. If you meet a mother-in-law with good health and a long life, your daughter-in-law may not live to be the master of the family. If unfortunately you meet a strong mother-in-law and your son marries a strong woman, you can imagine the life of the daughter-in-law who is in a dilemma.

However, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law seem to be getting along well. Otherwise, I would not have called my future daughter-in-law to my home. Moreover, according to Gongsun Huan, I have brought Xiao Ying with me almost every day for more than half a year, holding hands with her. Teach her how to manage the house and manage money; judging from my attitude, I am planning to let Xiao Ying manage fixed assets including the farm in the future, while she continues to do business and make money. As for Yang Ji, he is only responsible for spending money, procrastinating his family, and living his life, which he calls euphemistically: making friends and expanding connections.

"That won't work." After hearing Yang Ji's words, Dugumin's face darkened again: "Aye and I didn't understand this before, so he left us early. This is a painful lesson, and we must not be careless in the future. Whenever you return from the battlefield, you must do this, wash yourself first in Liangzhou, and then wash again when you return home."

At this point, she ordered Xiao Ying again: "Ah Ying, they both have the same virtue, that is, they are lazy. They never stand when they can sit down, and they never sit down when they can lie down. When you and he went to Liangzhou, Be sure to supervise this kid."

"Yes, Auntie." Xiao Ying's face turned hot after hearing this, but she still responded obediently.

Yang Ji listened to her name and was very happy. He could tell that Xiao Ying was used to this name. She called her very naturally and didn't feel forced at all.

Just thinking that I still can't get married, I feel a little discouraged.

This is because Yang Jian attaches great importance to the Han system and Han rituals, and has always set an example for the royal family. For example, Princess Lanling, after she lost her husband, remained a widow for three years before remarrying. Her former father-in-law Shangshu said that the princess did not need to abide by it. , was also dismissed from his official position. As Yang Ji's aunt and 'adoptive mother' Empress Dugu died of illness, he naturally had to observe mourning for three years before getting married. Of course, the three years here are not actual three years, but a span of three years.

In other words, Yang Ji will have to wait until next year to get married.

Returning to his main courtyard, under the service of several chubby girls who had turned into muscular women, he washed himself in pomelo leaf water and put on a sapphire blue light shirt. When he returned to the back hall and the side hall, , only to find that my mother had run away, and Xiao Ying knelt down obediently on the cushion and remained motionless.

The main hall was empty, making this girl look particularly graceful and lonely. Looking over from him, I happened to see Xiao Ying's side face.

Under the light, the profile of her face was covered with a layer of rounded light. Even if she was just sitting quietly, Yang Ji could feel a thrilling beauty.

Although Xiao Ying was squinting, she kept staring at the door with her eyes. When she saw Yang Ji arriving, she quickly stood up and went to greet him. She bowed with her hands folded and called "Mr. Lang."

She had a brief relationship with Yang Ji for more than a month. After accepting her fate and deciding that Yang Ji was the lover of her life, the love in her heart grew rapidly and crazily like the wild spring. Although this reserved, well-behaved and lovely woman The young girl reluctantly built a dam of pride in her heart, but her silent companionship and wild emotions destroyed the dam time and time again.

Just when the girl fell into an unfathomable love network, Lang Jun went to Liangzhou. She thought that soon, Lang Jun would take her to Liangzhou for reunion as promised. However, a fierce war suddenly broke out, and Lang Jun Going deep into the tiger's den makes the passionate girl miss and worry so much that her heart melts with sadness.

While waiting for days that lasted like years, she couldn't help but think about that person and that farewell kiss, and finally understood what it felt like to miss lovesickness mentioned in poems and poems: "The other person is picking gexi, and not seeing each other for a day is like three months." ! The other party is picking wormwood, and if you don’t see it for a day, it feels like it’s three years old! The other person is picking wormwood, and if you don’t see it for a day, it feels like it’s three years old!”

Now she finally got her beloved husband back to her, but her mother-in-law was just beside her. She was embarrassed to show anything, but at this time she could no longer care about the shyness in her heart. The joy of seeing her again after a long separation filled her bright eyes with excitement. He was filled with tears, and even his voice became a little more choked up.

"The moonlight is just right outside, let's go for a walk." Yang Ji felt the excitement in Xiao Ying's heart, and realized that an infatuated girl missed him, and his smile became gentle.

As he spoke, he gently held her little hand.

Xiao Ying's body trembled slightly, and rationally she felt that she should pull out her little hand, but in her heart she really didn't want to, thinking that Yang Ji was a general and she would definitely not be able to get away, so she had to let him go.

When the two of them walked to the courtyard under the moonlight and walked hand in hand to the lotus pond, without the obstruction of the branches, the moonlight shone brightly. Xiao Ying subconsciously looked at the moon in the sky, and suddenly realized that it was already very late. It seemed inappropriate to stay home late, but she had actually stayed at the palace more than once. In fact, it didn't matter if she didn't go home. However, she was afraid that her husband would think she was not dignified, so she immediately raised her moist eyes and stared affectionately. Looking at her husband, she explained softly as if to add something superfluous: "Mr. Lang, I actually wanted to go home, but my mother asked me to watch you, so I had no choice but to stay. Alas, there is really no other way."

Yang Ji felt happy, but he did not expose her, but said: "Xiao Mansion is just a station where you stay temporarily, this is your home."

"Yeah!" Xiao Ying felt like her heart melted!

The moonlight, night wind, chirping of cicadas and the sound of water beside the lotus pond seemed to have become extraordinarily gentle because of this ordinary conversation!
