Autumn Mansion.
Lan Tiao watched her young lady walk into the room in a good mood, and asked doubtfully: "Miss, why are you back so early today?"
Lan Tiao remembered that her young lady had not come back until Xu Shizheng recently. The master and madam had said this many times, but the young lady would not change.
Qiu Qingyue raised her lips: "I will come back so early in the future."
"What about your cats?" Lan Tiao looked around and then asked quietly.
Qiu Qingyue pretended to be mysterious and replied: "Your lady, I found a good place for them."
Lan Tiao scratched her head, looking puzzled: "A good place to go?"
Qiu Qingyue: "I'll take you to see it when I have time. Now, you'd better hurry up and get me some food. I'm hungry."
"Okay, miss, wait a minute, I'll go right away." After hearing Qiu Qingyue saying that she was hungry, Lan Tiao responded and walked out.
…
West Street, Lihua Lane.
Sun Lang put the four kittens in the house where he raised rabbits. There were three wooden cages in the house, one with two white rabbits, the other with two puppies, one gray and one black. One cage is empty.
Sun Lang lowered his voice and said softly: "Okay, there happens to be one empty room. This is the home of you four little guys. I will warm the bed for you. Just wait patiently."
The four cats barked in unison, seeming to answer him.
After half a stick of incense.
After Sun Lang put the cats into the cages and put food on them, his eyes swept back and forth between the three cages.
"You guys get along well, and I'll let you get to know each other well tomorrow."
After saying that, Sun Lang left the room and closed the door.
Although he was the only one at home, there were quite a few rooms. He didn't want to leave the cats, dogs, and rabbits outside, so he allocated a room to them.
After washing, Sun Lang went back to his room to rest.
Early the next morning.
After Qiu Qingyue had breakfast, she pulled Lan Tiao out of the gate of Qiu Mansion.
Lan Tiao followed closely behind Qiu Qingyue: "Miss, you are in such a hurry so early in the morning, where are you taking your slave?"
Qiu Qingyue turned around and replied: "Didn't I say last night that I would take you to see my cat?"
Lan Tiao nodded. She was still curious about what kind of good place her lady had found for those cats.
After a stick of incense.
Lihua Lane, West Street.
Qiu Qingyue and Lan Tiao stood outside Sun Lang's yard.
"Miss, is this a good place you said?" Lan Tiao looked at the slightly old yard in front of her.
She never expected it to be such a good place. This courtyard was not even half as good as the Qiu Mansion.
There was a hint of pride in Qiu Qingyue's tone: "Of course, do you know whose home this is?"
Lan Tiao looked at the corners of her young lady's raised lips and shook her head: "I don't know."
Qiu Qingyue raised her eyebrows and explained: "This is the home of Sun Lang, the hero who was transferred from Liudaotang to the Yulin Army."
When Lan Tiao heard this, she was stunned.
She asked in surprise: "Little Miss, what you said is true?"
After the victory in the Hexian War in the year when the new emperor succeeded to the throne, many people in Liudaotang received awards.
It was at that time that Qiu Qingyue learned about Sun Lang.
It seems that during that time, the storytellers in various teahouses not only talked about the battle in Nahe County, but also told many stories about other people in Liudaotang.
Why did Sun Lang, the former Liudaotang human Taoist captain, insist on going into battle to kill the enemy even though he was seriously injured?
Or perhaps it was Yuanlu, the former Hungry Ghost Dao Chazi, who traveled for several days and nights to spread the news of Beipan's attack to Anguo.
There are many more such stories.
But Qiu Qingyue was interested in Sun Lang.
It's a pity that the Qiu family is not in the officialdom. It is understandable how difficult it is to meet Sun Lang, who has been promoted to the captain of the Yulin Army.
Qiu Qingyue hummed: "That's what he said, I believe it."
Lan Tiao was shocked again: "Huh? What if they just lied to you?"
Qiu Qingyue said firmly: "No, if you meet someone, you will believe him."
She learned to manage the family property from her father, and she met all kinds of people.
She had also seen a person like Sun Lang, who looked upright and had clean eyes.
That's why she believed without hesitation that person was Sun Lang last night.
