Chapter 280
Wei Yueyan continued to count the weapons, so he didn't get entangled in this matter.Let Zhan Jin take the broken and scattered sword tassel and put it on the Arhat bed outside the dormitory together with the sword, and she went back to repair it by herself after a while.
Zhan Jin held the sword as if she was holding some precious glazed treasure, and came to the door of the dormitory with the slowest and most careful steps in her life, thinking that Mrs. Zhongtian should have fallen asleep already, so she didn't knock the door, and lightly Gently pushed the bedroom door open and tiptoed in.
"Who is it?"
A cold female voice came from the inner room, and Zhan Jin was so frightened that he almost gave up his sword.
"Zhan Jin? Why are you here so late?"
"Ma'am?" Zhan Jin squinted his eyes while holding the sword, and saw Ling Qiufan came out wearing a middle coat with the candlestick in his hand.Ling Qiufan has always been the most courteous person, even for an absolute confidant like himself and Lvchen, he will definitely wear a simple bun, put on a robe and come out, tonight this is not normal for one or two , Zhan Jin suddenly felt emotional.
"Madam, it's so late, you haven't rested yet."
Ling Qiufan put the candlestick aside, gathered his clothes, and used his hands to pull the black hair that was hanging on his shoulders, trying not to look too wanton, "I couldn't sleep, I heard the voice and thought it was the general, so I came out to have a look. "
Zhan Jin exhaled, and carefully placed the sword tassel and sword in his hand on the Luohan bed while talking, "The general is still in the armory, he may be back very late, Madam should go to bed early." He added, "If the general comes back soon and finds that his wife is still awake, he must be worried."
Ling Qiufan didn't respond to her words, but focused on the things that Zhan Jingang had left behind, "What is this?" She took a candle from the high platform next to her and illuminated the Arhat bed in a circle. Kim answered at the same time.
"Oh, madam, this is the sword that the general never leaves. The sword spike was unintentionally scattered by two servants just now... The general asked his subordinates to put it in the house, and she will repair it by herself later." Zhan Jin said again. Sighing, "Actually, I can't blame those two servants. This sword was left by the old master to the general. He has followed the old master for decades. The sword is a good sword, but how can Jiansui have such a long lifespan. Above The entangled rope has long been loose, and the two servants are just unlucky, so if they don't let go sooner or later, it will fall into their hands."
"Has the general lost his temper again?" Ling Qiufan asked after observing Zhan Jin's expression.
Zhan Jin originally didn't want to mention this to make his wife worry, but now that Ling Qiufan has seen it, he no longer hides it.After all, it is the most stupid performance to hide things in front of a person who is not weak in observation, sensitive and thoughtful.
Ling Qiufan pondered for a moment, then said: "You don't have to worry, I'll take a look later."
Hearing Ling Qiufan's words, Zhan Jin was startled and quickly persuaded: "Oh, ma'am, I can't help it. The general has a very special feeling for this sword tassel. This tassel should have been replaced long ago. When we first followed the general, we did not. I have tried to persuade you several times, but the general is very obsessed..."
"I understand." Ling Qiufan curled the corners of his mouth and comforted him: "I know it well, thank you for reminding me."
At this point, Zhan Jin couldn't say anything more, so he left the dormitory after saluting.If the general came back later and found out that Zhan Jin had lingered in the wife's room for a long time in the middle of the night, according to the stimulation the general received tonight, he might be able to wring her head off.
------------
Wei Yueyan returned to the dormitory exhausted all over, and when he entered the door, he kept his movements as light as possible, and when he closed the door and sat on the Arhat bed outside, a thin layer of sweat broke out from his freshly bathed body.She wasn't in a hurry to see Jiansui's condition, when she was physically and mentally exhausted to a certain extent, things outside of her body would not override her instincts to control her heart, and would only speed up the destruction of her spirit.
In fact, she knew very well what she was bothered about all day, not because there was a ghost planted by the court in the lieutenant this time, but because she was afraid that tonight would be the last night she could see Ling Qiufan.
She used to see those soldiers who were summoned to join the army not long after they were newly married. She knew better than any generals who enjoyed a generous military salary what it meant to be "poor bones by the Wuding River, like people in a girl's dream in spring." Going out is a farewell preparation, no one knows when the invisible hand of fate will take your life away.
She is not afraid that she will face death, she is just afraid that her Qiu Fan will become a poor person like that old lady Xi.
Wei Yueyan lost her mother when she was very young. Although she knew how hard widowed women are, she had never seen them before.Knowing that she met Granny Xi that day, she and Ling Qiufan later brought her to the mansion to take care of her, and every time she passed that small room, she would see an elderly woman sitting on a wicker chair in the yard, staring at the sky with empty eyes , holding a sachet of unknown age in her hand, shaking it again and again, the days of living alone are the same every day, as if she would not resist even if she was asked to die at this moment.
She didn't want Ling Qiufan to become like this, even though she knew that Ling Qiufan's affection for her was far from that deep.
Wei Yueyan laughed at herself, sat inside, and lit the candle to repair the tassel left by her father.Suddenly she frowned, brought the candle closer, and squinted her eyes to lift up the tassels. The golden silk thread was wrapped around the bright red tassels, as if it had never been unraveled and was always intact.
