The gentleman is knocking on the door

Chapter 283 Defending the City (7)

289
Mi Congcong secretly calculated and breathed a sigh of relief: "There are still five or six days to prepare, enough!"

It has been so many days since she sent the letter to Zhao Chuanzhe. I believe that with Zhao Chuanzhe's temperament, the crown prince will definitely send troops to suppress the rebels.

Lou Chenxiao hesitated for a moment, and said: "I forgot to tell you, your cousin is also here, and I heard that he is helping to strengthen the city wall."

Not only Mi Dayuan, but also Shi Chunbo.

"What?" Mi Congcong was taken aback: "Didn't Brother Dayuan go to Taizhou with my grandma and uncle?"

"Mo Qi saw him with his own eyes, and the two of them even said hello, they will come over later." Lou Chenxiao said.

"What a mess!" Mi Congcong was half dead with anger, "I still expect him to go to Taizhou to take care of grandma!"

Grandma was not in good health, and she was worried that grandma would fall ill again due to the exhaustion of the journey. She originally thought that she would be at ease with Brother Dayuan taking care of her, but who knew
Mi Congcong was angry and anxious, pacing back and forth in the yard.

"Don't worry, didn't Yunhui learn how to make medicinal food from your master? If you are really worried, someone will send Yunhui to Taizhou to take care of grandma tomorrow." Lou Chenxiao pulled her back and persuaded: "Let's talk Now, everyone has his own aspirations, your cousin has something he wants to do, we can't hold him back because of anything, right?"

"I didn't want to tie him down, I just"

"I know, you're just worried about grandma." Lou Chenxiao held her hand and comforted her in a low voice: "I let her go to Taizhou, and everyone will be fine. The doctors in Taizhou are much better than here. , and with Yunfen taking care of her, grandma's health will definitely get better and better."

After a pause, Lou Chenxiao said again: "Actually, grandma's illness was all caused by your father's anger. I think it would be better for grandma to go to Taizhou."

"By the way, do you know the situation of Mi Zhian and Widow Liu?" Mi Zhian couldn't help but ask more questions.

"I heard that Widow Liu and Widow Liu hid in the mountains with their children." The last time Mi Zhian sold the house and Ye fell ill, Lou Chenxiao sent someone to watch Mi Zhian not to let him approach Damo Village, so I really know Mi Zhian's whereabouts.

Mi Congcong knew that the child Lou Chenxiao was referring to was Widow Liu's child, so he couldn't help but snorted, and didn't want to ask any more questions.

What Lou Chenxiao said was right, seeing is not seeing, as long as grandma doesn't see Mi Zhian, she will be fine.

Just as the husband and wife were about to have dinner, Mi Dayuan came with Shi Chunbo.

"Brother Shi, you're here too?" Mi Congcong asked in surprise.

Shi Chunbo was a little embarrassed: "I'm bothering you."

Dayuan is going to live here tonight, so why not pester him to come here.

"It's all for the common people, there's nothing to bother you." Lou Chenxiao smiled, and without saying anything else, he directly ordered Yunhui to add more dishes and chopsticks.

Before Shi Chunbo came, he planned that if Lou Chenxiao didn't welcome him, he would sit for a while and leave, but he was somewhat surprised that Lou Chenxiao would keep him for dinner.

For the first time, Lou Chenxiao didn't give Shi Chunbo any face, Mi Congcong was very surprised.

"It's so rich!" Mi Dayuan was almost drooling when he saw the eight or nine dishes on the table.

In the past few days, they ate a big pot of rice on the other side of the city wall. The rice was barely full, and the food was gone.

Mi Congcong said with a smile: "I know you guys are coming, so prepare more, eat quickly."

Reinforcement of the city wall was physical work. Mi Dayuan and Shi Chunbo ate three bowls of rice alone, and also drank soup, which was also a sufficient portion of food, otherwise they would definitely have to add an extra bowl of rice.

Mi Congcong took a shower and went back to the room. Seeing Lou Chenxiao leaning against the bed thoughtfully, he couldn't help but smile and asked, "What are you thinking about?"

"come over."

He raised his eyelids and beckoned to her. She walked over obediently, and as soon as she reached the bed, he picked her up and hugged her tightly.

"You know what? This afternoon really freaks me out." He put his arms around her from behind and whispered in her ear.

Thinking of what happened in the afternoon, he still has lingering fears.

Mi Congcong turned around and kissed him, his eyes soft: "I know."

She felt his fear.

He seized the opportunity to catch her lips, deepened the kiss, and let go after a while.

"Promise me to let Feiying stay by your side, huh?" He stared at her with pleading eyes.

She wanted to refuse, but for some reason, when she met his gaze, she couldn't say the words of rejection.

"Then what do you do?" She looked at him and said softly, "You are worried about me, so do you know that I am also worried about you?"

"The rebels are coming soon. I suspect that Qin Huai's people are the ones advising the rebels. If you're not sure about your safety, how can you let me guard the city with the people at ease?" His deep eyes looked into her eyes, With his deep worries.

Mi Congcong bit her lip. She wanted to advance and retreat with him, but she knew that defending the city was no small matter. Apart from being able to catch ghosts and know some medical skills, she really couldn't help him. She really didn't want to be his weakness.

"Cong'er?" Seeing her bowing her head silently, he called softly.

"Okay, I promise to let Feiying follow me, but you have to promise me that you must not take any risks. If the rebels break the city, you must leave immediately." She looked back at him, and her expression told him that if If he doesn't agree, she won't keep Feiying either.

Lou Chenxiao smiled helplessly, and stroked her hair with his chin: "Okay, I promise you."

After lingering together for a while, Mi Congcong suddenly turned around and kissed him on the lips, bending his eyes and smiling, "This is your reward."

He was inexplicable: "What reward?"

She blinked her phoenix eyes, and said happily: "I reward you for not showing embarrassment to Big Brother Shi tonight."

As soon as she said that, his face darkened: "You reward me for Shi Chunbo?"

She is his daughter-in-law, and she actually rewarded him for being a foreigner?
Mi Congcong paused.

Well, it was her fault to hear the tone.

"No, I'm just happy." She leaned on him and looked at him with a smile.

"Is it because I let Shi Chunbo stay here?" His face seemed to turn darker.

According to what she means, if he drives Shi Chunbo out tonight, will she still have trouble with him?
"Of course, my man doesn't keep personal grievances in mind and cares about the overall situation. Do you think we should be rewarded or not?" She said angrily.

She was quite puzzled just now, this guy actually changed his personality and gave Shi Chunbo a good look, but after careful consideration, she understood.

Shi Chunbo came for the sake of the people in the county, and this guy put aside his previous affairs for the time being.

"Hmph, don't think I can calm down by wearing a tall hat!" He raised his chin awkwardly.

She kissed him on the chin with a smile, and sighed softly: "What should I do, I seem to like you more and more!"

He lowered his head abruptly, a scorching light shone in his deep eyes.

She bent her phoenix eyes to meet him, and there was a sinking mist in her eyes.

The light in his eyes became more and more hot, and his heart beat violently.

"Me too." The last word disappeared between each other's lips, and the two fell down together.
