After Qi Shuo left, Zhang Yan followed Qi Shuo.
"General, would you like to sit with me for a while?"
Zhang Yan's smile bloomed like a flower, and it was so beautiful in this night that it was difficult to ignore her presence.
Qi Shuo's eyes darkened, he distanced himself from her, and said, "I still have something to do, so please go back and rest!"
After saying that, Qi Shuo quickly raised his steps and left.
Zhang Yan wanted to keep up, but her steps were small and slow. Unless she was running, she couldn't keep up.
Zhang Yan watched the general leave, stamped her feet displeased, turned around and left.
Wu Li followed Qi Shuo all the way. She misreported the news today, so she should naturally wait for Qi Shuo to speak.
Qi Shuo didn't say anything for a long time, which made Wu Li feel anxious, so she had no choice but to speak on her own.
"General, today is my fault. I was afraid of something happening, so I wanted to report it to you."
Qi Shuo said lightly: "It's okay, go down!"
Qi Shuo didn't think Wu Li was at fault at all. Although it was a misunderstanding, Cheng's timid temperament and Zhang Yan's spoiled person would be hard to avoid being bullied. Fortunately, the two seemed to get along well.
When Wu Li heard that the general did not blame her, she retreated. She was secretly unhappy. It was strange that Aunt Yan and Mrs. Cheng did not fight.
But thinking of Mrs. Cheng's timid appearance just now, Wu Li felt a little more happy. With such a timid temperament, and being unable to compare with Aunt Yan's beauty, the general would obviously not like it.
…
When Qi Shuo returned to the courtyard, Sun Yuan and Qian Cheng were still sitting at the dinner table.
As soon as Qi Shuo arrived, Sun Yuan asked with a smile and gossip: "General, how is the backyard?"
Qi Shuo glanced at him, nodded calmly, sat down, and continued the meal.
The brothers drank and ate meat together, and talked more openly.
Sun Yuan continued: "General, you just got a wife, you better come back to Chuchu, lest people don't know you well!"
Qi Shuo took a sip of wine and didn't answer.
Qian Cheng also said: "General, do you want to fix your appearance? I'm afraid the new lady will be scared when she sees you like this?"
The military camp was busy and difficult, and the sergeants occasionally got busy and went without a shower for a month or two, not to mention the stubble on their faces.
Qi Shuo wasn't someone who cared about appearance so much, so he didn't care about it.
After Qian Cheng said this, he raised his hand and touched his face. His beard was indeed very long, as if he hadn't shaved it for several months.
Sun Yuan also echoed Qian Cheng's words: "My mother was shocked when I came home without shaving for several months. She thought I was a bandit from some mountain! Not to mention the ladies in the capital. You will be even more frightened when you see us like this."
Qian Cheng nodded and said, "My family was also shocked by me."
Qi Shuo heard what the two said and felt it made sense.
Maybe it was his appearance that frightened Mr. Cheng.
Let's fix it another day.
At this age, he finally married a serious wife. Although she was not the one he wanted to marry, after all, she came to his own family and she had to live a good life in the future.
…
When Wu Li came to the main hospital to ask for instructions on the second day, she suddenly saw the brand-new general and was stunned.
"General? You..."
Qi Shuo shaved off his beard today, tied his hair high and put on a new robe, but he seemed to be no longer the same person as yesterday.
Yesterday, although he had the aura of a general, he was completely out of place, yet he had a terrifying gangster air no matter how he looked at him.
At this moment, the man was dressed in black robes, with a calm temperament, a tall and straight figure, and a handsome face.
Years of military experience have given him a handsome appearance with masculine charm.
Wu Li looked steadily at the man in front of her, and the heart-pounding feeling she felt when she first saw him came back.
"General, where are you going?"
Qi Shuo paused and said, "Walking around as you like, you don't have to follow me!"
Although Wu Li was unwilling in her heart, she still agreed, with some reluctance in her eyes as she watched the tall and tall figure go away.
Qi Shuo walked all the way in the courtyard. The servants coming and going in the mansion looked at him with their peripheral vision. He hadn't seen such a scene for a long time, which made him feel a little uncomfortable for a while.
"General, are you going to Miss Cheng's place?" Song Jiang said with a smile.
Qi Shuo coughed and saw that he had arrived at the gate of Cheng's courtyard. He concealed it and said, "Now that we are here, let's go in and take a look!"
Yesterday came and went in a hurry. I originally wanted to show my concern and condolences to Mrs. Cheng, but seeing that Mrs. Cheng was so afraid of me, I let it go.
He freshened up specially today, so he shouldn't be so scary, right?
When Qi Shuo walked into the courtyard, the two little maids were shocked.
"You...who are you? You broke into the backyard?"
Not long after Xiaolan Xiaodie entered the mansion, she had never seen such a handsome man, nor did she think of him as a general.
Just looking at such a handsome man, they were shocked and blushed at each other.
Song Jiang behind Qi Shuo hurriedly said: "How brave! General, don't you recognize him?"
"General...general?"
Xiaolan and Xiaodie looked at each other.
Song Jiang has been following the general in the mansion. If he says he is a general, he will definitely not be wrong.
Song Jiang said: "What are you doing standing still? Hurry and report to Miss Cheng!"
"General, please go inside first. Miss Cheng went out this morning. When Miss Cheng comes back..."
Xiaolan patted Xiaodie and motioned her to find someone quickly.
The general is so handsome, Miss Cheng will no longer be afraid when she sees him.
But Qi Shuo knew that Ms. Cheng was not here and said, "No need to bother. Since Ms. Cheng is not here, then forget it."
"General... don't leave..." Xiaolan became a little bolder and went to stop Qi Shuo.
"General, Miss Cheng should be back soon. Why don't you go inside and wait?"
"No!"
Qi Shuo refused and left without any displeasure on his face.
Song Jiang, on the other hand, muttered: "Miss Cheng is still injured, why did she go out today!"
Qi Shuo said: "Maybe you have something to do and go out."
Song Jiang sighed, the general finally understood, but it was a pity that Miss Cheng was not here.
Judging from the general's behavior, he must be interested in Miss Cheng, otherwise how could he go to her yard again and again?
"General? Miss Cheng is unfamiliar with this place in Shanzhou. Why don't we go pick up Miss Cheng?"
Song Jiang knew that the general must have a thin face, so he couldn't show it too obviously.
Wouldn't it be nice if he gave a reason for the general to go see Miss Cheng?
Qi Shuo felt that Song Jiang's words were reasonable. It was obviously not safe for a young woman from the Cheng family to go out and be unfamiliar with the place.
"Go prepare the carriage!"
When Song Jiang heard the general's words, he immediately went to ask someone to prepare the carriage.
