From a refugee to a martial artist
Chapter 224 Farewell
Chapter 224 Farewell
After a night's rest, Meng Yuan got up early.
Nie Qingqing had also woken up. The two of them were going to see Lin Yan off from Beijing today, so they only did morning exercises for a while.
After washing up and having breakfast, Meng Yuan rode on horseback with Nie Qingqing to the door of Lin Yan's house.
Then he followed Lin Yan to the Demon Suppression Bureau and met up with Zhou Ying and Fan Ye. Then Lin Yan took Meng Yuan and Nie Qingqing to see Yuan Yaoniang.
"I will be away for at least a month, or at most two or three months. If you miss me, just write to me." Lin Yan's eyes were red, and he called Meng Yuan and Nie Qingqing over. "This is my sister-in-law. She used to call me brother. She is my master's daughter, the one who killed three people in a row."
You two are even talking about this? Meng Yuan's eyes widened, not knowing what to say.
Yuan Yaoniang hadn't even looked up at Lin Yan, but after hearing this, she raised her head curiously and looked at Nie Qingqing.
"There is no trace of sadness on her face. Instead, it is rosy and pretty, showing that the yin and yang are in harmony." Yuan Yao Niang actually said, "It seems that she slept well yesterday."
Nie Qingqing has always been generous and can handle both housework and cooking, but she didn't expect Yuan Yaoniang to be so open-minded. She blushed slightly, bowed, and said, "Sister-in-law, how are you?"
Yuan Yaoniang was annoyed, "Wait until I can get out safely, then you can call me sister-in-law!"
"Don't worry, Yaoniang." Lin Yan was really affectionate and held Yuan Yaoniang's hands. "When I come back, I will definitely set you free!"
Yuan Yaoniang broke free from Lin Yan's hand, her face flushed, and there was a red line on her upper lip from anger, "Just don't die out here!"
"Don't worry, I'm lucky!" Lin Yan was very confident, and didn't look like he did yesterday when he asked someone to entrust his child to someone else.
Yuan Yaoniang didn't say anything more and just waved her hand to send the people away.
Lin Yan looked back every few steps and finally left the yard. Then he sighed deeply and murmured something about the long way to go.
"Qingqing," Lin Yan said solemnly, "Come and see your sister-in-law more often. She likes sweets. Send her some snacks. Once every three days will be enough."
"Haha." Nie Qingqing sneered rarely. "Sending snacks is nothing. But you have to remember, you are not allowed to teach Xiao Meng any nonsense in the future!"
"What did I teach him?" Lin Yan was anxious.
"Anyway, just do whatever you want and don't lead others astray!" Nie Qingqing's words made a lot of sense.
Lin Yan was in the wrong and did not argue, so he could only accept it.
Afterwards, Lin Yan went to see Xiao Taotao again, and then he left the Demon Suppression Division, bringing Zhou Ying and Fan Ye, as well as seven small flag officers and a dozen captains.
Meng Yuan and Nie Qingqing escorted Lin Yan all the way out of the city before returning.
There was nothing to do after that, so Meng Yuan and Nie Qingqing went home.
"I think Captain Zhou Ying seems to be somewhat dissatisfied with me." Nie Qingqing was very perceptive.
Meng Yuan did not hide anything and immediately told him what happened yesterday.
"Every family has its own difficulties." Nie Qingqing's smile became more gentle, and she also had a bit of charm. "Meng Lang, when will you return to Songhe Mansion?"
They had slept together many times, and Meng Yuan knew as soon as he saw Nie Qingqing's eyes that this elder sister was reluctant to be separated from him.
"I'll be back around early October, after the old lady's birthday." Meng Yuan said.
Nie Qingqing calculated the days carefully and said, "Then you can practice in Ying Mansion during the day and come here to eat at night."
She is older than Meng Yuan and has always acted like an older sister, but now her face is very red and she is extremely embarrassed.
Meng Yuan naturally would not refuse. After all, after this period of time, he would eventually marry her into his family.
Although matters between men and women are addictive, Meng Yuan is well aware of the principle of alternating between relaxation and tension, so he will not indulge in them every day.
Practicing during the day and relaxing a little at night is also in line with the principles of yin and yang.
Moreover, ever since he set out from Songhe Prefecture, Meng Yuan has not been able to calm down and focus on opening his acupoints.
Soon it was late September. Meng Yuan stayed in Ying Mansion during the day, teaching Hu Qian and others how to practice, and returned to Nie's house to rest at night.
The old lady’s birthday was coming, but there was no big celebration. Everyone just ate longevity noodles together.
Jiang Tang chatted with the old lady, and that was it. Three days later, it was the anniversary of the death of Old Ying Gong and Little Ying Gong. There was no big celebration, just lighting white lanterns, eating vegetarian food at home, and no sound of joy.
There were quite a few young Confucian scholars who came to the Ying Mansion, but they did not come in. They just bowed outside the gate and left.
Zhao Wannian and others entered the Ying Mansion, bringing with them a group of younger generations. They sat in the Ying Mansion for a while, and Meng Yuan and Nie Yannian chatted with them.
There was only the old lady in charge of the Ying Mansion. There were no other people from the Ying family, and naturally there was no one in charge. It was all Jiang Tang who came forward to act on behalf of Ying Ru.
There was nothing to do after that, and when Meng Yuan had some free time, he asked Nie Yannian to help him find a restaurant and let Nie Qingqing be in charge.
Nie Yannian had property in the capital, land outside the city, and a shop in the city, but he did not employ many people.
The two searched for several days, but Shenjing was different from Songhe Prefecture after all. There were all kinds of people here, and it was much more complicated than Songhe Prefecture.
Many good locations have been occupied by others, and it is not something that can be solved by just a hundred households.
Meng Yuan recalled Nie Yannian's original theory about class.
"You know you are an ant, right?" Nie Yannian said without any disappointment. "When you reach the sixth level and make a name for yourself, this restaurant will be established!"
It was almost time to leave Beijing. Nie Yannian and Meng Yuan were drinking together, and Nie Qingqing was pouring wine obediently beside them.
"That's not necessary." Nie Qingqing didn't care. "Xiao Meng's cultivation is the most important thing. Sister Jiang and I have discussed it. I won't be able to take care of it by then. Sir..."
She didn't say it after all.
"You know shit!" Nie Yannian was not polite to his own daughter, "When you reach that level, you will have the power. When the time comes, you won't have to worry about anything, because someone will manage your business for you!"
Nie Qingqing ignored it.
"So, go back and serve the Third Miss well, and then you can move up a level." Nie Yannian was very open-minded. "When you have enough power, you can choose any good location, even in the imperial palace!"
What the hell is going on? Meng Yuan did not try to refute it.
After drinking until late at night, Meng Yuan stayed at Nie's house again.
Two days later, Meng Yuan took Nie Qingqing to visit Zhao Wannian and others, and gathered with their descendants to participate in a poetry reading.
Although he is clearly the descendant of a military man, he has already started to pretend to be cultured and compose poems and couplets.
Three days later, it was already October and time to say goodbye.
Meng Yuan came to the Imperial Master's Mansion alone without Jiang Tang.
He took out the pine nut candies and candied haws he had bought and happily let the person go.
"She is the third lady of the Ying family and has her own status. Just ask her to come to me once every five days." After Meng Yuan asked Mingyue to look after Jiang Tang, Mingyue did not refuse.
"Thank you, young lady." Meng Yuan expressed his sincere gratitude.
Mingyue nodded and said, "When you reach the sixth level, Ying wants you to help with something."
"Go through fire and water!" Meng Yuan said casually.
Mingyue smiled rarely, "Go ahead."
Meng Yuan retreated and returned to the mansion to bid farewell to the old lady.
"People have joys and sorrows, separations and reunions, and the moon waxes and wanes." The old lady had a head full of white hair, and she did not write a letter for Meng Yuan to take back. She only said, "The third child is the youngest, and she is also the smartest. Everyone in the Ying family has a heart to seek the truth. Just tell them that if you want to seek the great way, there will be countless hardships, and there is no need to worry about me, who is about to die."
"Yes." Meng Yuan said respectfully.
After bidding farewell to the old lady, Meng Yuan and Nie Yannian took Tie Niu and Hu Qian out, and Jiang Tang and Nie Qingqing came to see them off.
After leaving the capital, Meng Yuan looked back at Jiang Tang and Nie Qingqing, then urged his horse to go.
