Stepmother's Adoption Letter

Chapter 249 Proposal (1)
In the early morning of the next day, Yuan Lu started to work on the servants in Brother Che and Sister Xi's house again.

This day happened to be the day when the court was about to go to court. Just after the hour, a servant of Gao Fei came back from the palace early to report that there was another good news from the front line. The Duke of Qi defeated the enemy army and captured a large number of horses. Ship back.

The emperor rewarded Qi Guogong in the early court, and promoted him to be the left commander of the rear army.Even Gao Fei, the Duke of Cheng, was promoted to be the commander of the Chinese army.Of course, there is an argument about which army to assign to. Qi Guogong wanted to beat the Tatars back to his hometown, and the rear army was in charge of the defense of the north.Gao Fei wanted to stay in the capital, and the position of the Chinese army was just right.

It has always been difficult for Dayao generals to be promoted, especially those above the third rank.Many military generals have never been able to get a first- and second-rank senior member Dangdang in their entire lives.The emperor would rather leave the position vacant and hold the military power in his own hands than easily distribute the military power.Also because of this, the simultaneous promotion of the two dukes of Qi and Cheng is considered a major event in this dynasty.

For Cheng Guo Gongfu, this is even more important.

Before Gao Fei left the palace, he handed over the letter first, and asked the servants around him to come back first to announce the good news.

Yuan Lu happened to be in the old lady's yard, and after listening to it, she couldn't help but be delighted that the award was awarded, how wonderful it is!Wasn't what she and Gao Fei agreed at that time after he was promoted to a noble?

The old lady cheerfully asked someone to seal the happy money of ten taels of silver to the boy who came to report the letter.

Yuan Lu said: "Grandpa Guo is about to go down in a while, I'm going to prepare meals right now, and when he comes back, let's eat and talk together."

Seeing that she was so active, the old lady also said: "Okay, okay, you go get ready, I'll put incense sticks on your father-in-law, and then ask people to give reward money, today we all have rewards from all over the house."

The two went about their own business.But Gao Fei didn't come back until noon, Yuan Lu almost thought that the emperor had enjoyed the meal in the palace.

The old lady saw that the three children were waiting hard, so she said let's eat first and let the kitchen prepare his food.

Just when the meal was served and the table was set, Gao Fei came back.

The old lady was so happy that she couldn't close her mouth with a smile. When she saw her son came back, she wanted to ask him.

Although Gao Fei was usually serious, he also had a straight face when he came back today, but for some reason, Yuan Lu felt that there was something wrong with his mood.

Gao Fei didn't seem to want to say anything, so he just sat down at the dining table and said, "Let's eat first." As he spoke, he held the bowl in one hand and chopsticks in the other, and began to eat on his own.

He eats quickly, but without being rude.It's more like a habit developed during marching and fighting, but he has been taking his time these few days, and it's a bit abnormal to suddenly be like this.

A lunch was eaten in silence, even the three children sensed that the atmosphere was not right, so they just buried their heads in eating their own meals, and even Brother Che, who was the most amusing, was honest and didn't say a word.

After lunch, the servants removed the food.

Gao Fei sat beside the old lady, drinking tea leisurely.

The old lady let the three children go down knowingly, and then turned away the servants, leaving only the three of them.

After everyone had left, the old lady asked, "But what happened this morning?"

Only then did Gao Fei put down the teacup, and said: "Today, after the sage rewarded Duke Qi and me, the next court left me and said some words. Judging from the meaning of those words, it seems that he intends to arrange a marriage for me. .”

"Marriage?" The old lady almost exclaimed, and at the same time secretly looked at Yuan Lu's face.
