Traveling through the heavens from the prequel of the Lotus Lantern

Chapter 815: Sitting around and eating, toasting and drinking, and chatting about family matters are the happiest things in the world.

Late at night, the drizzle turned into a heavy rain, accompanied by bursts of lightning and thunder.

Xu Zhai.

Suddenly, the door of a bedroom in the back house was quietly opened. Yang Jiao, who was lying on the bed, opened his eyes and saw a figure wrapped in a quilt from head to toe walking in quietly.

"You stay up at night and come here to act like a ghost. Do you want to murder your husband?"

"what!"

The human figure, Cheng Shaoshang, suddenly heard Yang Jiao's low and slightly hoarse voice, and screamed in fright.

Immediately, she came to her senses and spoke softly:

"It was raining heavily and there was thunder. I was afraid something would happen to you, so I wanted to come over and take care of you."

Yang Jiao smiled:

"Do you think I should believe it?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a "bang", and like a frightened rabbit, Cheng Shaoshang immediately got on the bed and buried his little head on Yang Jiao's shoulder.

When the thunder gradually subsided, he dared to raise his head, looking childish, pitiful, submissive and weak:

"Okay, I admit, this thunder made my heart tremble, and I was so scared that I couldn't sleep."

Yang Jiao frowned slightly when he heard this. For some reason, when facing Cheng Shaoshang, there was always an inexplicable feeling of indebtedness in his heart.

"I was not thinking carefully tonight. Although I have been demoted to a commoner, I expect that every move I make will be seen by interested people. It is true that there should not be two separate bedrooms. From now on, you can sleep in this bedroom."

When Cheng Shaoshang heard this, he was a little curious:

"There are rumors in Yingtian Mansion that you have behaved inappropriately in front of the emperor and have the audacity to offend the emperor's authority. Therefore, you are demoted to a commoner. Is this true?"

"That's right. I thought I would tell you about the dangers of the Tian family when I came to your home. If you are not careful, it will not only harm the whole family, but also affect the three clans. Now that I am demoted, for me, it is half a step out of the danger. Bureau." Yang Jiao replied calmly.

"That's true. The marriage between you and me is considered a gifted marriage. You don't know that when my father heard that I was planning to marry the Prince of Han, it was like a bolt from the blue." Cheng Shaoshang recalled. road.

"Listening to what you said, I will be back the day after tomorrow, so I will be in trouble. After all, I am not the prince of Han Dynasty now, and your father will not find any excuse to beat me up. "There was a hint of laughter in Yang Jiao's voice.

"Don't think I can't see it. You have good martial arts skills. At the garden party, you kicked an assassin and lost most of his life with just one kick. Even if my father wanted to teach you a lesson, it wouldn't be you. opponent." Cheng Shaoshang snorted.

"Okay, it's late at night, you have to get up early tomorrow to make wine."

"I get up early, don't you have to get up early? You still need to make breakfast!"

Yang Jiao was silent for a long time and said slowly:

"So, what I mean by saying it's late at night is, don't stop me from sleeping anymore."

Cheng Shaoshang rolled his eyes and closed them without saying a word.

Time flew by quickly, and soon the day came for Yang Jiao to bring Cheng Shaoshang back home.

In a very simple-looking study room, Yang Jiao used pen and ink to write and draw on the book, while Cheng Shaoshang kept talking to the side:

"My family has been farming for generations. There is a grandmother at the top who passed away three years ago. My father is the eldest son in the family. His name is Cheng Shi. He joined the army during the Jingnan Campaign and fought for his future in the mountains of swords and blood. My mother My surname is Xiao."

"My second uncle died ten years ago. My second aunt and my grandmother died three years ago. My third uncle is a county magistrate. My third aunt comes from a scholarly family and her surname is Sang."

"Among them, my father has three sons and one daughter. My eldest brother joined the army in Shuntian Prefecture and has been promoted to a hundred households. My second brother and third brother are still practicing martial arts at home. My second uncle left behind a daughter who is one year older than me. Now I am The upbringing of my mother is to treat her as her own child. My third uncle and my third aunt have only just gotten married and have no children yet."

When she said this, she couldn't help but ask:

"After breakfast, you came to the study to write and draw. Do you want to take this as a return gift?"

Without waiting for Yang Jiao to reply, he said with a smile:

"Actually, there is no need. Everyone in my family knows our current situation. For them, as long as I can live a good life, that is their greatest relief."

Yang Jiao stopped writing, put the book on the table into his arms, stood up and said calmly:

"How do you show that you can live a good life? Only by showing the people in your family how to settle down and live a happy life can you completely reassure them so that they don't have to worry about you day and night."

Cheng Shaoshang said dubiously:

"Don't tell me that what you wrote can calm the hearts of my family."

Yang Jiao narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "It's rare to see many strange things. It's almost time. Let's go out."

Half an hour later, an ordinary carriage stopped outside the house named Cheng Mansion.

As soon as Cheng Shaoshang landed on the ground with the support of Yang Jiao, a middle-aged man with a beard who inadvertently exuded a murderous and decisive air strode out of the mansion and shouted excitedly:

"Niao Niao, Niao Niao, dad finally wants you back."

"father!"

Upon seeing this, Cheng Shaoshang happily greeted him and jumped happily in the middle-aged man's arms.

Immediately afterwards, a graceful, tall, fair-skinned, and graceful woman in her thirties came out, leading two men, one woman, and some servants.

"Niao Niao, you are a married woman, why are you still so unruly?"

Suddenly, the smiles of the father and daughter froze on their faces.

Cheng Shaoshang immediately walked to Yang Jiao and introduced:

"This is my father, this is my mother, cousin Cheng Shu, second brother Cheng Song, and third brother Cheng Shaogong."

Yang Jiao bowed and greeted each one:

"Father-in-law, mother-in-law, cousin, second brother, third brother."

When everyone first saw Yang Jiao, who had a great appearance and was cold and calm, they couldn't help but be stunned, and then took a look at Cheng Shaoshang, who was beside him, who was lively and out of character.

Cheng Shi couldn't help but look at his wife and children. The meaning was obvious. Putting aside other things, the two of them seemed to be in the sky and the other on the ground. It was our family that got the advantage.

"My dear son-in-law, you don't need to be polite. You are one of my own family now. I have asked people to prepare wine and food, and I am just waiting for you to take Niao back home."

Not long after, everyone was seated at the table, and the table was filled with delicious dishes that were both delicious and delicious.

"My dear son-in-law, we don't have many rules in our family. When we have meals, we all like to get together together. This makes things lively. I hope you won't take offense."

Yang Jiao said calmly:

"The days are ordinary and trivial, the time is gentle and slow, family members sit around to eat, toast to drink, and chat about homely things. This is the most joyful thing in the world, so why should we be surprised."

"Good son-in-law, good insights." Cheng Shi raised his glass:

"Now let's drink to the family reunion."

Immediately, everyone picked up their wine glasses.

Afterwards, Cheng Shi took the lead in serving food to Cheng Shaoshang:

"Niao Niao, dad has prepared all your favorite dishes for you. Come on, try some."

Cheng Shaoshang smiled brightly:

"Thank you dad."

She picked up the food in the bowl and ate it into her mouth, and was stunned for no reason.

"What? It's not to your liking. These are your favorite dishes." Cheng Shi, who always pays attention to his daughter, asked quickly.

"No, I just found that I have been used to the food Xu Xian cooked for me in the past two days, and suddenly I felt that the dishes I loved before were not that delicious." Cheng Shaoshang said slightly strangely.

"Xu Xian?" Xiao asked suspiciously.

Yang Jiao explained:

"After leaving the palace, because the emperor ordered me not to use my real name, I changed my name to Xu Xian."

As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at each other, but they didn't expect that it was the former prince of the Han Dynasty who was cooking for Cheng Shaoshang.
