Chapter 68 The tacit understanding of husband and wife cooperation!
Mei Wen'er, who immediately returned to the bed tent and picked up her little girl, was ready to evacuate!
However, Madam Shen's voice sounded in the courtyard, "Second brother! Are you back?"
"Who is this?" The soldier frowned when he saw Ye Chenfeng, "Where is my elder brother? Who is this person and why did he come out of your room?"
Listening to this tone, it is obvious that he is trying to catch a traitor! Is that it?
Suspicious, Mei Wen'er quickly put down her daughter and walked out, "I misunderstood. This is my husband. Madam Shen just helped me breastfeed the baby. My husband just went to pick up the baby."
"That's right!" Mrs. Shen also said, "Chen Langjun didn't enter my house either, so please forgive me for being rude!"
After saying this, Mrs. Shen, who was still a little embarrassed, hurriedly introduced to Ye Chenfeng and Mei Wen'er, "This is my man's younger brother, who is also a soldier."
When the second son of the Shen family heard this, he also knew that he had misunderstood, so he apologized readily, "I'm sorry! I, Shen Qiang, speak my mind, so my sister-in-law and you two should not take it seriously."
"It doesn't matter." Ye Chenfeng then spoke and asked, "I am a ranger from Jiangzhou Prefecture. Looking at my brother's body, he doesn't look like me from the Jiangzhou Army?"
The second son of the Shen family was quite surprised when he heard this, "Are you also serving in the army?"
"That's right." Ye Chenfeng nodded, "This time I took leave to go back to my hometown to pick up my wife. I planned to go to Jiangzhou City to settle in a new home. I never expected to be followed by a bandit with a grudge. I was ambushed and my whole family was almost killed. Fortunately, your elder brother and sister-in-law came to my rescue, and I am temporarily recuperating at your home."
"That's it!" The second son of the Shen family understood, "There has been some unrest recently. Your position must be quite high, so you can take your wife and children to settle down in Jiangzhou."
"It's okay, I'm just a young general of the rangers. There's nothing I can do about it. My parents are gone, and my wife is alone at home. I'm not worried. It's better to take her to the nearest city so she can take care of her." Ye Chenfeng talked eloquently.
The second son of the Shen family looked envious when he heard this, "I see you are young, General. You must have killed a lot of bandits to get promoted so quickly!"
"There are quite a few. These days, the current regent is threatening to kill people at the border. There is no way to make contributions, so we can only kill bandits locally. There are fewer bandits now. When this group is calmed down, It will be difficult to get promoted in the future."
Military generals are made by killing! Ye Chenfeng's words easily resonated with the second son of the Shen family, and made him even more envious and said, "It's better for you, there is really no hope for us here."
"What do you mean? Recently we have been jointly guarding and suppressing bandits. Don't you want to suppress them?" Ye Chenfeng asked doubtfully.
When Mei Wen'er heard this, she basically figured out that this guy was trying to find out the news!
The second eldest son of the Shen family is probably the weakest member of the army raised by the emperor!
However, Shen Qiang was still alert and did not follow Ye Chenfeng's question. He responded evasively: "Yes, our general is afraid of trouble! It doesn't matter if he does this, his life will definitely be saved."
"That's not bad." Ye Chenfeng didn't ask further to avoid being suspected, "I come from a poor background, so I can only risk my life to gain a future. Brother, your family is well off, so there is no need for this."
"That's exactly the reason!" Mrs. Shen finally interjected, "Don't talk in the yard, come to the hall quickly! Second brother, please chat with the guests for a while, and I will call your eldest brother back."
"Sister-in-law, don't make any noise. Just tell my brother and ask him to come back. I'll have to leave in a while." The second son of the Shen family warned vigilantly.
Mei Wen'er became more and more sure that her guess was correct! She glanced at Ye Chenfeng.
Ye Chenfeng happened to look towards her and said calmly, "Madam, please take the child back to the house first, and I will have a chat with the two Shen brothers."
"Okay." Mei Wen'er stepped forward and took the baby's hand. The baby was still awake and was looking at something.
The second son of the Shen family took one look at it and said with a smile: "You are quite energetic!"
Ye Chenfeng also laughed, and put his hand on the shoulder of the second son of the Shen family, "Girls, you are in the way, let's go! Come in and have a good chat, and have a drink tonight?"
"That can't be done! There is a military order and I won't give you a drink! But if you drink, I will chat with you!" The second son of the Shen family said regretfully.
Ye Chenfeng didn't force it, "Your army is quite troublesome, but our general doesn't allow it! I haven't joined the army yet, so I can still drink!"
"Drink less!" Mei Wen'er muttered to the two of them.
"You don't have to worry about it!" Ye Chenfeng said and closed the hall door.
Mei Wen'er turned around and left angrily. She could still hear the second son of the Shen family in the room saying, "Your wife is pretty good!"
"good."
"Come on! It's hard for us rough guys in the army to find such a charming wife. You picked her up so nervously because you were afraid that without your wife to take care of her, your wife might have run away with you!" The second son of the Shen family laughed.
Meaningful.
Ye Chenfeng laughed dryly, "She dares!"
"Look, your tone is weak!"
"No!"
"Brother, please be satisfied. However, you are quite good-looking, but you are a bit darker, otherwise you could look like a scholar. Many women like that kind of sour scholar!"
"My wife only likes me when I'm not black!" Ye Chenfeng echoed with deep sympathy.
Mei Wen'er: "..." His acting is no worse than that of the emperor. He is worthy of being a brother, both of whom are movie kings.
She didn't listen any more and took her child back to the house.
After she put the little one to sleep, she heard the news that the eldest son of the Shen family was back.
She didn't go out either. As a woman in confinement, she was not suitable for walking around blindly. It was because Ye Chenfeng had been misunderstood before, so she needed to step forward.
Before dinner, Yun Gu, who had gone to collect herbs, came back, but instead of going to the house, she went straight to Mei Wen'er's side, "Yun Gu?"
"Young lady, are you awake?!" Yun Gu came up with some surprise and took Mei Wen'er's pulse again, "Not bad! She's recovering well."
Mei Wen'er thanked you, "Thank you very much for these days."
"Where are you, ma'am? I'll go cook for you right away. Just wait, I'll be ready soon."
"There's no rush, you should take a break first and drink some water." Mei Wen'er said, getting up and going to turn off the road for Yun Gu.
Yun Gu quickly stopped and said, "Don't stab me, I'll do it myself."
Mei Wen'er didn't force it. After Yun Gu poured the water and drank it, she whispered to Yun Gu what happened in the courtyard.
Yun Gu was thoughtful, and after a moment she said: "I understand, I will cook for you first, and other things will be arranged as well."
"Okay." Mei Wen'er nodded before lying back on the kang.
Not long after——
The soldier who had come with the second son of the Shen family before, but who had gone somewhere later, returned and shouted: "Second Shen, let's go!"
"Here we come!" Shen Qiang agreed, and quickly walked out of the room, saying: "Brother, Brother Chen! I'm leaving first, and we'll talk to you later when we have a chance!"
"It's too urgent! Where are we talking now?"
"I'm busy with military duties, so I took the time to come back to see my elder brother. Let's go!"
After Shen Qiang finished speaking, he picked up the spear placed in the yard and left with the two soldiers.
At dusk, someone quickly followed the three! Someone also fell into Mei Wen'er's house!
