Not far from the center left, on Kinmen Island, the residence of Duke Dingguo still stands there. It has not changed at all because of the distrust between Zheng Chenggong and Zheng Hongkui. In fact, due to the relationship between Chen Kai and Zheng Xiyuan, Zheng Chenggong has no interest in the place.

He also invested more, and from time to time he would send people to bring some rare things, but he himself would never come.

Zheng Hongkui handed over all his troops to Zheng Chenggong. The rift between the two still persisted, so he returned to live in Baisha. Baisha is not far from Anping Town. When he decided to garrison troops there, he also had the intention to help defend Anping Town. However, in the past six months,

However, the Qing army did not move there. According to Zheng Zhibao's relationship with Fujian officialdom, it seems that the Qing government did not allow Zhang Xuesheng to move there, for fear of blocking the way to recruit troops, but instead leaving him with nothing to do.

He is completely unemployed, but he does not plan to live in Kinmen. The whole family, including Zheng Hongkui's wife, concubines, children, are planning to move to Baisha to accompany him, and are now packing their bags. Among them, only Zheng Xiyuan,

As a daughter who has already written a marriage contract and is considered married, she seems a little embarrassed.

"My mother and I are going to Baisha to accompany my father."

"now it's right."

In the embroidery building, Zheng Xiyuan's brother Zheng Zhaoji rushed over to see his mother, sister and others off to Baisha. At this moment, when he got Zheng Xiyuan's answer, he praised it with his hands in hands, and then said seriously: "Grandma will not agree, then

My husband has already left, so it’s best for me to think clearly. After a while, the engagement should be called off, and the right path would be to choose a good son-in-law and remarry."

How did Zheng Zhaoji come up with this? Zheng Xiyuan was shocked at first, but she quickly figured it out. Unfortunately, her brother seemed to have thought too much. She went to Baisha and met

It has nothing to do with who I am waiting for, and it has nothing to do with waiting. I am just going to accompany my father and fulfill my filial piety, nothing more.

However, when Zheng Zhaoji mentioned Chen Kai, even using Na Si as a pronoun, she still couldn't help but look a little sad.

She packed that letter in her jewelry box and never read it again. She believed that Chen Kai would not lie to her. If he said he would come back, he would definitely come back. There was no need to confirm it over and over again in the letter.

, confirmed that Chen Kai had said such words, confirmed that all this was not her fantasy. Just like what Chen Kai said to Liu Rushi, she would miss him, and she also believed that Chen Kai would often think of her.

Yes, I will definitely keep my promise to her.

Due to the status of her stubborn and domineering grandmother in the family, Zheng Xiyuan has been persuaded more than once to persuade her to forget Chen Kai and to let go of this fate and embrace the future. To this, she listened silently and refused to

To refute, facts speak louder than words. When Chen Kai really comes back, there will be no need to say anything more.

This time, when Zheng Zhaoji said this, Zheng Xiyuan did not give any satisfactory answer. Anyone else would not say anything, but Zheng Zhaoji seemed to be a little dissatisfied and said that Zheng Xiyuan must give an answer before he can rest assured.

Pressing harder, Zheng Xiyuan didn't want to listen to such noise anymore, so she simply said to him bluntly: "Brother, you must know that my younger sister and Mr. Chen have already written a marriage letter and are already members of the Chen family. My husband is

While traveling for the country, I failed to be a good helper at home, let alone follow you by my side, which is a big mistake. Even if this marriage fails, it is because I cannot live with him, and he has never failed me.

You won’t let me down in the future!”

Standing up, Zheng Xiyuan fearlessly looked at Zheng Zhaoji's already dull eyes. This was what she was thinking, and when she said it to her face, the knot in her chest actually dissipated a lot.

Even breathing becomes much easier.

However, Zheng Xiyuan's cheerfulness was accompanied by Zheng Zhaoji's anger. In addition to liking to get along with Zheng Chenggong, his sister had always been respectful to him as an older brother since she was a child. He asked himself that he also doted on this sister.

However, today, for the sake of an outsider, you contradict him with words and don't say anything else, which is the most embarrassing thing.

"Sister, don't forget, he is the enemy who killed Uncle San!"

"He killed Third Uncle. I complained about him, why he couldn't scare him, why he couldn't put Third Uncle under house arrest. But I also know about the military order, and I also know that in that case, if Third Uncle doesn't die, then

The Zhongzuo Station cannot be defended, and more people will be killed because of Third Uncle’s cowardice..."

Thinking back to her girlhood, her third uncle, although not very successful, was so kind to her. On one side was her third uncle, on the other side was her husband. Bit by bit, every memory cut into her heart.

One knife. This long-term depression, even from the moment she heard that Chen Kai shot Zheng Zhiwan, had accumulated in her heart one by one. At this moment, Zheng Xiyuan was also extremely angry, and all this broke out, and its turbulence became even more intense.

It was something that even she herself had never imagined.

"Brother, haven't you always looked down upon Third Uncle the most? At that time, Third Uncle was doting on me, and you always said that Uncle looked down on Third Uncle, saying that Third Uncle was a loser and couldn't achieve anything, so you could coax me, a fool like me.

Girl, now it’s proven that you are right, Third Uncle is indeed not a person who does big things. According to your nature, you shouldn’t publicize your foresight, so why are you speaking for Third Uncle now?”

The sharpness that came out of her mouth was something that even she had never thought of. She already regretted saying it, but she didn't want to apologize for it. She didn't want to apologize for it, because her brother had said this back then, and she didn't know a single word of it.

If you haven't changed your mind, why should you apologize for the truth?

The sister who didn't want to apologize was so angry with her brother that she couldn't even utter a retort. Zheng Zhaoji's anger immediately broke through Tianling Gai, and he strode up to Zheng Xiyuan, stretched out his hand, and was about to slap him down.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he raised his hand and looked into these water-clear eyes, he couldn't do it at all. There was not an unbearable emotion in it, but more of it was something he couldn't even imagine.

Fear, a force that didn't seem to be a deterrent to his normally well-behaved sister.

"It's Chen Kai, it must be Chen Kai!"

Zheng Zhaoji did not intend to contact Chen Kai, but he could do so. Apart from his father Zheng Hongkui, the only person who could do so was Chen Kai, a murderous guy.

Maybe, as Zheng Xiyuan said, Chen Kai will really come back. But even so, he has no reason to be afraid of anything. But then he thought about it, facing Chen Kai, a guy who even Zheng Zhiwan dared to kill,

His biggest reliance turned out to be that he was Zheng Xiyuan's biological brother. This was perhaps what he should be most afraid of.

"You must remember that an elder brother is like a father. As long as I am here, this marriage will be canceled!"

In this way, the fear can be relieved, even if it has to be burdened with greater fear in the future. Looking at the past without caring about the future is a common mistake of many fools, and Zheng Zhaoji is no exception. However, this time, he did not wait for him

If he said any harsh words again, an angry voice came from the stairs of the embroidered building, which immediately blocked his "bold words" completely.

"Son, you are so capable that you can bully your sister. Your father is not dead yet, so it is not your turn to have the final say!"

As he said that, Zheng Hongkui actually pulled out the sword from his waist and rushed towards the general. What Zheng Zhaoji was most afraid of on weekdays was his father, who always treated him with a hateful attitude. Knowing that at this moment, Zheng Hongkui was

He was so angry that he didn't even dare to explain, so he ran out of the room, jumped up, and fell directly from the second floor.

At this moment, Zheng Zhaoji's skills were so strong that even Zheng Hongkui's second brother Zheng Zhihu, who was always famous for his martial arts, was completely out of reach.

It's a pity that the jump was very clean and neat. However, the moment he landed, there was only an "ouch" sound, and he lost his footing because he couldn't stand firmly. But even so, he didn't dare to stop for a moment.

He limped like this and quickly escaped without a trace.

Zheng Zhaoji fled, and Zheng Hongkui did not really pursue him. He just blasted him out of Zheng Xiyuan's courtyard and returned to the embroidery building. By this time, Zheng Hongkui's anger had faded, but the anger from his heart

Fatigue and aging can no longer be concealed in the expression of this man who is not yet forty years old.

Just now, her brother was like this, and Zheng Xiyuan never had the slightest urge to cry. But now, when she saw her father and saw her father's fatigue, tears suddenly welled up.

"Dad, it's your daughter's unfilial piety, and it's your daughter's willfulness that has made you suffer so much... My daughter won't get married, my daughter won't get married..."

"My dear daughter, you are wrong. This is all dad's choice. Even if it doesn't work out, Damu will not forgive me for letting Ma get gong. I already figured it out in Baisha, so why do you have to suffer so much."

Home or country, if he could do it over again, Chen Kai would still do the same thing, and Zheng Hongkui would not change either. This is nature, but with the hindsight of being in Shenyang, Zheng Hongkui asked himself that he still has this ability. No matter what,

He said that he had taken the imperial examination in an upright manner, instead of being a pirate like his eldest and second brothers and being recruited. Even if it was just a military examination, it was still the same.

"This brother of yours is really an incompetent fool. I don't expect this treacherous son to be able to take care of you mother and daughter in the future. Dad is old. If Chen Kai can really come back, I will no longer stand in the way of the marriage. In this way, your future will be brighter.
