It seemed that the word "safety" gave Gongsun Cheng some comfort, and Gongsun Yan coaxed him to eat some meat soup.
There were no outsiders in the room, so Gongsun Yan simply gave up sitting on his knees. The rules were all for others to see. He could do whatever he felt comfortable with when no one was around.
Gongsun Cheng took two mouthfuls of rice with meat soup and then frowned and refused to eat any more.
Gongsun Yan picked up Gongsun Cheng's tranquilizing decoction on the desk, hesitated for a moment, blew it to cool it, and taught him to drink it in one gulp.
Gongsun Cheng always listened to his sister's words and drank all the medicine in the medicine bowl in one go. It was so painful that he could only stick out his tongue.
Gongsun Yan took out the fruit juice gum he had prepared and stuffed it into his mouth.
Seeing how his eyes sparkled instantly, I kissed him affectionately on the forehead.
After taking care of Gongsun Cheng and taking medicine, Gongsun Yan called Aqing Alan to clean up the desk in the room.
Yesterday, Gongsunda's wife personally came to take care of him, and there was no need to be too polite. Gongsun Cheng's health was the most important thing, so he didn't have to attend any banquets.
Although Gongsun Da and Gongsun Zan were brothers, Gongsun Da was actually recommended by Gongsun Zan as the captain. In the Han Dynasty, recommendation and promotion were very important, so even though he was a junior, Gongsun Da did not act like an elder.
I stayed in my wife's room last night and kept explaining it over and over again without feeling relieved.
In the morning, he put on casual clothes under the service of his wife. He took his wife's hand and told her again that she must not act like an elder and neglect the Gongsun brothers because of Gongsun Zan's defeat.
After being told by him like this, even though she felt that the arrangements were very well done, seeing how seriously Gongsunda attached great importance to it, Qian didn't dare to neglect it.
After saying goodbye to Gongsun Da at the door, she went to open the dowry box and found two plates of cloth and jewelry. She knew that Gongsun Yan and others had broken out and had little money at hand, so she wanted to send some gold cakes and goods, but she was worried that Gongsun Yan would think too much, so she simply gritted her teeth
Take out the three ends of Shu brocade.
These Shu brocades all come from the south, and have always been treasures equivalent to gold. There is also a saying that every inch of gold is worth every inch of brocade.
Today, in Xiabandang, the north-south trade routes are almost cut off, so the value of Shu brocade with bright colors and gorgeous colors is even more precious in the north.
Although she was reluctant to give up, Mrs. Qian still asked her servant to hold it in a red lacquer tray, and walked through the school captain's mansion towards the courtyard of Gongsun Yan's sister and brother.
As soon as he arrived at the gate, he saw a majestic armored soldier waiting at the courtyard gate with a sword, it was Xia Houlan.
When Zhao Yun left, he ordered him to temporarily take over the responsibility of guard. After a brief rest, Xia Houlan came to serve as the doorkeeper early in the morning.
Both Zhao Yun and Xia Houlan have a good appearance. Unlike Zhao Yun's Shen Yi, Xia Houlan is clearer.
Last night, I had washed myself well, shortened my unruly beard, and was of outstanding height. At this time, I stood up with a knife in my hand, which made several maids behind Qian blush with embarrassment and stare at him non-stop.
"Madam." When Xia Houlan saw Qian coming from a distance, she bowed her hands and opened the door behind her.
"Thank you, Xiahou Sima." Qian had been here yesterday and knew Xiahoulan's surname and military position. After all, he was handsome and mighty, so he was quite impressed.
Passing by Xia Houlan, Qian walked into Gongsun Yan's courtyard.
As early as when Qian deliberately slowed down his pace to be polite to Xia Houlan, a servant girl went in to inform Gongsun Yan.
At this time, Qian had just walked two steps across the courtyard gate when she saw Gongsun Yan coming out to greet her.
Qian's eyes lit up when he saw the young girl coming out.
The girl was pretty and filial, she took off her black army coat that looked like a sack and took a refreshing hot bath.
The dust of traveling all the way has faded away. The girl with extremely white complexion is wrapped in the large plain clothes prepared for her by Qian. Her black hair is as black as ink. Just standing there is a beautiful scenery that makes people smile unconsciously.
Qian was past the age of jealousy. Before Gongsun Yan could approach to greet her, he helped her up, held her plain white hands in his palms, and patted her gently: "You're welcome, Ayan. It's cold outside. We
Go in and talk."
Holding the girl's slender and tender fingertips in his hand, Qian couldn't help but sigh.
Gongsun Yan's father, Gongsun Zan, was a handsome man with a loud voice, and his biological mother, Hou, was also a famous beauty in the Hou family of Zhuo County. She inherited the advantages of both parents.
It’s a pity that these changes happened...
Thinking of this, a thought that flashed through Qian's mind when she first saw Gongsun Yan yesterday resurfaced.
She heard that Gongsun Zan's sworn brother Le Hedang had come to Gongsun Yan's house to ask for his second son's hand in marriage.
But I don’t know whether Gongsun Zan was happy to be a concubine or had other plans. He refused the marriage on the grounds that he loved his youngest daughter and wanted to stay for a few more years.
From then on until Gongsun Zan's defeat, it seems that Gongsun Yan was never heard of having any relatives.
Her eldest brother's eldest son is also approaching 20 this year. In the past, the Qian family could not reach the threshold of Gongsun Zan's house even if they stepped on a ladder.
But now that Gongsun Zan has been defeated, Gongsun Yan is just the daughter of a concubine in Gongsun's family, but she can still compete.
Gongsun Zan left a manor and farmland across several villages east of Lingzhi, and Gongsun Yan's dowry would not be small.
What is the point of waiting for three years of filial piety for such a beautiful and rich girl?
As for whether Gongsun Yan's innocence would be ruined if he suffered a military disaster, it was not under Qian's consideration.
Regardless of social customs or secularity, the concept of women's integrity in the Han Dynasty was weak. There was no controversy about men and women remarrying. They did not particularly care about human relations, and the restrictions between the sexes were relatively loose.
Thinking of going back, she hurriedly wrote a letter to her brother. The smile on Qian's face became more loving, and she pulled Gongsun Yan into the warm room.
Although she didn't know that Qian had already imagined what a beautiful child Gongsunyan could give her nephew, Gongsunyan just felt that Qian's smile was so warm that she couldn't resist it.
He took his hand out of her palm and hugged Gongsun Cheng to greet her.
"Hello, aunt." Gongsun Cheng timidly hid in Gongsun Yan's arms.
He even couldn't cope with Qian's enthusiasm.
"I'm in a bit of a fright, please forgive me, auntie." Gongsun Yan said with an apologetic smile.
"Where." Qian knew that Gongsun Cheng was still young and sick, so he didn't care too much about it, but felt very sorry for Gongsun Cheng.
Gongsunda was dark and strong, and the Qian family's two daughters and two sons were unlucky enough to have the same looks as their father. Qian was very fond of a baby like Gongsun Cheng, who had tender, white breasts.
He wanted to hug him, but Gongsun Cheng refused.
Seeing that he looked gloomy, he knew that the concoction he drank in the morning had taken effect, so Gongsun Yan hurriedly took care of him and went to bed.
Qian waited patiently for Gongsunyan to put Gongsuncheng to sleep, and then took her to greet her for a long time.
Gongsunyan also smiled and asked questions, pretending to be casual and asking about the situation of Lingzhi Gongsun's family.
Qian seemed to be aware of it, but she didn't care. She just thought it was Gongsun Yan who was worried about the future and told everything she knew and could say.
Ah Qing brought him hot honey water, and the two sat and chatted for a long time. It was only when Gongsunyan's legs turned from numbness to tingling, to severe pain that he could hardly hold on to his smile, that he took his leave.
Seeing Gongsun Yan stand up to see her off, but his feet stooped, Qian couldn't help but laugh. He was not even used to sitting upright. When Gongsun Zan and his wife were alive, they loved their little daughter.
Seeing that she was trying to be tough and insisting on sending it off, Qian didn't say anything and just told her not to be polite and to go on her own.
