bright moon goes west

Jiang Maonong has been in the army for many years, and he has long developed the habit of watching all directions and listening to all directions. Seeing the young commander walking in his direction, he quickly stood up from the sofa and respectfully saluted Chen Xi.

"Young commander."

Chen Xi waved his hand, signaling Jiang Maonong to sit down.

"Maonong, you have been in the capital for a while, how do you feel about the capital?" Chen Xi touched Jiang Maonong lightly with the red wine glass in his hand.

"The capital city is very good, but it's just that there is no war all of a sudden, and I'm not used to the humble job." Jiang Maonong smiled honestly.

Jiang Maonong is 41 years old this year. His family is not very rich. He barely studied in a private school for four years. His father dropped out of school when he died.

Later, my old lady got seriously ill, and she spent the little family property left on the doctor's consultation. It was really hard to live, so Jiang Maonong joined the army and climbed up from a small soldier. Now it has been 21 years.

Although he didn't have much culture, he used soldiers like a god and had won countless battles. He was Chen Xi's confidant who was single-handedly picked up by Chen Xi. He even blocked bullets on the battlefield, and he was absolutely loyal to Chen Xi, the young commander.

"Maonong, there will always be a day when the war will stop." Chen Xi lifted his lips and said in a deep voice: "I usually read more books, read more newspapers, and study more. You are my confidant and a talent that the army should focus on training. You can't fall behind."

"Young commander, don't worry, I promise to obey the order." Jiang Maonong put away the smile on his face and said solemnly.

Chen Xi patted Jiang Maonong's shoulder encouragingly, and brought up the family affairs of his subordinates with a smile: "I heard that you have a son and two daughters under your knees?"

Jiang Maonong and his wife are a couple in need, and the couple have survived the hard times.Although concubine Nanny is very popular nowadays, Jiang Maonong is grateful for his wife's love for him, and the backyard has always been clean.One son and two daughters are both descendants of Mrs. Jiang.

Hearing the young marshal asking about his children, Jiang Maonong couldn't help showing a deep smile on his face. He himself didn't study much, but his eldest daughter graduated from Jinling Women's University. The school is also among the best.

Jiang Maonong said very proudly: "Young Marshal, my eldest daughter is married, and there is a 16-year-old younger son and a ten-year-old daughter who are both studying in school."

"I heard that the three children in your family are well educated." Chen Xi smiled and praised, "Do the two children have a marriage contract?"

Jiang Maonong didn't expect the young marshal to mention this at all, he was a little stunned, and then, with a strong ecstasy in his bright eyes, he replied seriously: "The two children are still young, and they both While studying, I haven’t thought about it yet.”

Chen Xi nodded when he heard the words, but said nothing more.

But sometimes, the superiors only need to spit out one or half a word, which is enough for the subordinates to think and ponder.

While chatting with Chen Xi, Jiang Maonong's mind was already secretly active.

The more favored cousins ​​and cousins ​​of the Chen family are already married, and the only prostitute in the sixth room has a marriage contract with Lu Jiaxuan, the second son of the Lu family, and is only waiting to marry next year.

At present, the only one who is not married and does not have a marriage contract is the marshal's prostitute Chen Yuying.But Miss Yuying is already 17 years old, and her age is not very suitable for her own boy.

It seems that the marriage that the young marshal mentioned was either found among his subordinates or relatives.

Anyway, the young marshal will not treat him badly, Jiang Maonong's eyes flashed brightly, and he drank the wine cheerfully.

Chen Xi chatted casually with Jiang Maonong, got up and walked towards the person he was afraid to see but dared not see, his uncle Cui Heming and his wife.

When Chen Xi came over, Cui Heming was talking with a senior brother of a family friend, and his wife Lu Nianxue was chatting with the female relative brought by the other party about the children's scriptures.

"Brother, sister-in-law." Chen Xi took the initiative to say hello.

Cui Heming stopped talking with the guests, his eyes fell on Chen Xi, a well-known gentleman like jade, suddenly showed the expression that his nose was not his nose, his eyes were not his eyes, and said "hmm" from his nasal cavity.

"Young commander." Another couple present quickly greeted Chen Xi.They don't have the same identity as Cui Heming, let alone the confidence of Cui Heming.

Chen Xi nodded casually, with a pair of deep black eyes showing some obvious flattery: "When did big brother and sister-in-law come here?"

Although Lu Nianxue didn't have any affection for Chen Xi's brother-in-law after her sister-in-law gave birth prematurely, but in front of so many people, there was no need to embarrass Chen Xi, a young marshal.

Lu Nianxue secretly gave Cui Heming a wink, and said with a smile, "We have just arrived, about ten minutes earlier than my brother-in-law."

Lu Nianxue had piercing eyes, so she could tell that most of the unmarried ladies present were not interested in drinking, and they were here to pay their respects to Chen Xi's "golden turtle son-in-law".Especially Dai Jia, the host of the banquet.

Lu Nianxue had doubts in her heart when she received the Dai family's invitation card with rich powder, rich and elegant orchid dark patterns.

Originally, for Dai Chunlin's birthday banquet, the couple could come or not, and the Cui family and the Dai family didn't have any friendship anyway, so it wouldn't be considered impolite if the gift was delivered.It was Lu Nianxue who felt something was wrong, fearing that my sister-in-law might be wronged at the banquet, so she encouraged her husband to come with her.

Unexpectedly, only Chen Xi attended the birthday banquet tonight.

Lu Nianxue's heart suddenly fell into her stomach. It seems that my sister-in-law has already made a plan. No matter what the Dai family's plans are, there will only be one result in the end, and that is to bring shame on herself!
Here Lu Nianxue was full of thoughts, but Chen Xi was secretly relieved.He was afraid that the elder brother and husband would not even want to maintain their face.

As long as you are still willing to talk to yourself, you can spend more time in the future. Anyway, Ah Heng is already my wife, and now they both have sons. Could it be that Cui Heming and his wife will push Ah Heng to divorce him? .

"Sister-in-law, I'll take you back after the dinner." Chen Xi said flatteringly in a low, magnetic voice.

It's a pity that Cui Hemingbing didn't appreciate it. He snorted coldly and said in a cold and alienated tone, "How dare you bother the young commander, our Cui family can't even afford a car."

"Tianquan!" Lu Nianxue whispered her husband's name in disapproval, her clear and moist almond eyes carried a warning.

My husband and wife made things difficult for Chen Xi at the Dai family's birthday banquet, which would only leave people with the impression of being disregarding the overall situation, disregarding the importance, and being vitriolic.

What's more, this brother-in-law is still in a high position, how many people are secretly watching the position of the young marshal's wife, if this is spread by someone who does something wrong, what will my sister do in the future? !
Lu Nianxue originally planned to deal with Chen Xi casually, but now, in order to smooth things over for her husband, she could only put aside the past for the time being, and showed a kind smile to Chen Xi: "Your elder brother can't speak, brother-in-law, don't talk to me." He cares."

"Sister-in-law, it's my fault. I've always wanted to find a chance to make amends to elder brother." Chen Xi said very lowly.

If the Cui family hadn't kept him out, he would never have chosen such a bad time to talk to Cui Heming.

"Family, it's too far-fetched to talk about this." Lu Nianxue smiled with an oval face, as if there was no half-way between the two families.

"That's because sister-in-law is tolerant and kind. I'm afraid that you and elder brother won't forgive me." Chen Xi said gently.With all the sharpness in his body, he is no longer the cold and arrogant young commander of the Feng army in front of people.

Some guests who were close had been secretly watching the movement here, and at this moment they couldn't help but be secretly stunned.I don't know how the Cui family raised a girl to win over this young marshal who is like a "human weapon", let alone a dignified young marshal, even ordinary people, they don't do this to their uncles. V small.

"Who said I've forgiven you?" Cui Heming bit his cheek tightly, and squeezed out a sentence through his teeth.He is generous and honest, but he is not stupid.

Isn't Chen Xi here now to apologize to himself and his wife with the idea of ​​"being easy to talk to in front of others"?It's just that when my sister escaped from death and was struggling in the operating room, where was this person and why did she get her forgiveness.

"Tianquan, let's talk about family matters when we get home. On an occasion like today, you are not afraid that the master will feel bad luck with such a deep frown!" Lu Nianxue couldn't bear it and pinched her husband's arm, almost sticking to her husband's. Whispered in the ear.

Don't you think you haven't seen enough jokes?Lu Nianxue's gaze scanned the surrounding guests, seeing those guests quickly avoiding her gaze, a silent sneer appeared on the corner of Lu Nianxue's lips.

"Brother, sister-in-law, please give me a chance to see how I behave in the future. If I do anything wrong, I will accept punishment." Chen Xi's handsome face was very serious, and he solemnly begged Cui Heming and his wife .

Lu Nianxue secretly sighed, saying that it is difficult for an upright official to break up housework.For someone as strong as my younger sister, she would rather bend than bend. She had already forgiven Chen Xi, and the husband and wife supported him, just to show that the sister-in-law had her mother's backing, and she was afraid that Chen Xi would be wronged by the sister-in-law again.

Having said all of this, it doesn't make much sense to care about it any more.

Lu Nianxue pinched Cui Heming's arm hard, and said softly, "Your elder brother and I are not unreasonable people, as long as you husband and wife live a good life, I have nothing to do with your elder brother."

Cui Heming snorted coldly after being repeatedly hinted and pointed out by his wife, and said reluctantly: "I will forgive you for the time being."

"Thank you, brother and sister-in-law!" Chen Xi didn't expect things to go so smoothly, and while he was relieved, he was also excited and delighted.

He used to look down on this uncle who always pays attention to the way of a gentleman, but now it seems that this is still very beneficial.

"Young commander." Finally, after accompanying his father and the guests, Dai Wangshu finally found an opportunity and came towards Chen Xi with a graceful figure.

The woman's gentle and sweet voice made Lu Nianxue frowned.

"Mr. Cui, Mrs. Cui, good evening, both of you." Obviously Dai Wangshu knew Cui Heming and his wife, so he greeted them in a graceful manner.

Even though Lu Nianxue didn't like Dai Wangshu any more in her heart, she still showed a gentle and kind smile on her beautiful and graceful face: "Second Miss Dai, hello." The courtesy was so thoughtful that no one could fault it.

"Young Marshal, I am fortunate to have a picture of "Luo Shen Fu" by Mr. Changkang of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, one of the "Four Masters of the Six Dynasties". I would like to invite you to taste it together."

Dai Wangshu's clear apricot eyes were curved, and he looked at Chen Xi with admiration. He spoke softly and smiled without showing his teeth. At first glance, he looked like a lady.

It's just that this lady of every family is not in a hurry to hook up with a married woman.Lu Nianxue saw the extremely hypocritical mask on Dai Wangshu's face at a glance, and a barely visible sneer appeared on her lips.

It is difficult to paint the bones when painting a tiger!
Chen Xi remained indifferent, as if he hadn't heard Dai Wangshu's invitation.

Dai Wangshu had already been humiliated by Chen Xi once, and he was not discouraged, his eyes flashed, and his gentle eyes were placed on Cui Heming and his wife.

"Mr. Cui, I heard that you and your wife came from the Cui family of Boling. It is a famous family with a long history and profound heritage. If Mr. Cui and Mrs. Cui are willing, I would like to ask Mr. and Mrs. Xian to help me identify the authenticity of the painting."

Seeing that Chen Xi couldn't get through, Dai Wangshu chose to save the country with a curve, and instead extended an invitation to Cui Heming and his wife.

Although she spoke politely and humbly in her words, she was very confident in her heart. The painting she had worked so hard to find must be the authentic work of Gu Kaizhi!

Before Cui Heming could speak, Lu Nianxue had already said with a smile: "Since Second Miss Dai kindly invites us, we husband and wife have the audacity to follow Second Miss Dai there to feast our eyes."

Coincidentally, there is also a Gu Kaizhi's masterpiece "Fu Tu of Luoshen" in the warehouse of Cui's family.

Dai Wangshu's goal was achieved, and a gleam of joy flashed in her eyes. She secretly pinched the palm of her hand, forced herself to calm down, looked at Chen Xi with a questioning look, and smiled warmly: "Young commander, please follow me!" shall we go there together?"

Chen Xi nods his head in a nonchalant way, showing an indifference and arrogance that rejects others thousands of miles away.

As long as he agrees.Dai Wangshu suddenly burst into a flowery smile, leading the way ahead with a smile.
