Chapter 192 Tie Yi Leng 19 Creating Warmth

It was almost noon, Liang Shuang and Du Ze left their accounts and went back to their respective camps to have dinner with their subordinates.Yu Hui took A Li back to her dormitory, had someone prepare a sumptuous lunch, and pulled A Li and Cheng Yuan to sit around and eat.

When Yu Hui did this for the first time, Cheng Yuan refused in fear.Yu Hui acted coquettishly and claimed that she couldn't eat without company, Cheng Yuan had no choice but to obey.Unexpectedly, Cheng Yuan was surprised to find that during the dinner, Ali behaved naturally, and Yuhui also added food and vegetables to Ali with concern. It was not like the romantic place he imagined, and the men's table was just another delicacy for people's pleasure.Yuhui dined at the same table with the two of them, and treated them with respect as equal female relatives, which made Cheng Yuan feel the warmth and harmony of the family that he had never had before.

According to the law of etiquette, only the husband and ladies in the family are eligible to eat at the same table with the head of the family.If the main husband is unable to come due to health reasons or going out, the side husband can temporarily fill the stage, but he can only sit at the bottom of the table and serve the head of the family and the ladies. Often there are not a few mouthfuls that are really edible after a meal into his own mouth.And men who are not on the stage, such as servants and people in the house, will never have a seat in front of the head of the house. Even if the whole room is full of male relatives gathering to chat, as long as there is a person with the identity of the main husband in the room, the side husband needs to ask for instructions before sitting. Next, the waiter and the people in the room can only stand and run errands like the waiters.

Cheng Yuan's biological father is a side husband. After marrying into the Cheng family, he has always been cautious in his words and deeds. In addition to serving his wife seriously, he is quite respectful to his husband. The lack of etiquette makes people pick the wrong place, and they are left out in the cold.Because father sacrificed his dignity and tolerated to please, Cheng Yuan was more favored by his mother than other concubine sons.Before the age of ten, in addition to learning the decent skills that a man should learn, he also had the opportunity to accompany the young ladies and sons to read and write.

When Cheng Yuan was 12 years old, it happened that the empress dowager chose a servant.The royal daughter's selection of a servant is much stricter than that of ordinary people. She must choose a young, beautiful, docile and docile virgin from among the children of officials and nobles.However, sons from official and noble families can find anyone to marry as their husbands, or participate in the draft to officially enter the harem. On top of the honorable status of a king and servant, they naturally refuse to suffer such grievances, so generally the candidates are sent The son of a concubine.

Even if Cheng Yuan should not be selected as the imperial concubine's servant because of his humble background, if he wants to get married in the future, he can only be a side husband. Or husband.Cheng Yuan's father thought that it would be better to serve the Empress Dowager instead of marrying and enduring hardships. In the future, the Empress Dowager will inherit the throne, and if she is not given the title of servant, she will be rewarded with considerable money. If she is lucky enough to be favored and give birth to a daughter, then In an ordinary family, to be a husband must be decent.

Coincidentally, the empress dowager had a different mind in choosing a servant than ordinary people. At that time, she didn't have any capable confidants around her, so she planned to choose a literate man who could help her sort out some confidential documents.Even wealthy families seldom let their young masters read and write. A man's ignorance is a virtue. Among the few young masters sent as candidates who can read and write coherently, Cheng Yuan is very rare.Moreover, Cheng Yuan's appearance is also outstanding, and his family background is clean.The Empress Dowager chose Cheng Yuan almost without hesitation. Of course, the reason to the public was that she valued Cheng Yuan's beauty.

Cheng Yuan still remembered that on the night of the warm-up ceremony, his wife-in-law explained to him the real reason for choosing him, which was completely different from what he had imagined.After that, his wife-lord personally led him into another world, and the two of them were physically fused and connected with each other, and his thoughts and vision stood at a height that ordinary men would never be able to reach.He was brought by his wife's side, and he was inseparable all day long, and he didn't even have to avoid it when he was attending classes.The head of the wife allowed him to read any book in the study, and they discussed together if there were any questions they didn't understand. From military affairs to government affairs, all aspects of governing the country and employing people, they were actually more like classmates.Unfortunately, in the eyes of outsiders, he is just a humble servant beside his wife.

Although the wife-lord loves him very much, in order to deceive others and follow the etiquette, he has always stuck to his duty. Even if he was later promoted to Xiguijun, he never dined with the emperor.The seat next to the emperor is only eligible to be used by the emperor.There is a difference between concubine and concubine, his children must respect Zhengjun as their father, and in private they can at most call him daddy but not father.At the time of marriage, children only need to salute to their mother and legitimate father.In public, he even had to salute his own flesh and blood, because they were the queens and princes, with golden branches and jade leaves, and in the royal family, except the Zhengjun, everyone else was just the emperor's servants, no different from servants.

This is not only the case with royal nobles, but also most common people's homes follow this rule.Therefore, for the sake of dignity, many men would rather be the husband of the poor than the servant of the rich.

Cheng Yuan didn't expect that he could sit and eat with his son and his wife in this life.A Li is a servant, and Yu Hui is the daughter of an aristocratic family and the prince's wife.With A Li and Cheng Yuan's current identities, Yuhui had dinner, and they could only stand by and serve.But now almost every noon and night, Yu Hui would invite him to sit with Ali, and she would warmly add food and vegetables to them, and discuss military affairs with them, without slighting them.As long as their suggestions are reasonable and helpful, she will accept them, and she is also happy to ask him questions. She will not pretend to understand for the sake of a woman's face, but is as humble and polite as she is to a teacher.This is the highest respect a man can enjoy, right?Every time Cheng Yuan thought about it, he would feel proud and relieved.

Ah Li was able to marry such a good woman as Yu Hui, it was a blessing in misfortune.It's a pity that A Li lost his innocence before meeting Yu Hui. Even if A Li regained his status as a prince, Yu Hui would not be able to respect him as her right husband, let alone now that Yu Hui has married Luan Ming and the Gui family.For the sake of the overall interests of the country, the emperor would not admit the existence of Ali for a long time, and Luanming kept making troubles. In this way, it is a problem for Ali to even get rid of his slave status.Even if Yuhui loves Ali very much, in the eyes of others, Ali is still just a servant who can't stand on the stage.How unfair is this to Ali?
Just now, Ali's martial arts performance was not inferior to the elite soldiers in the camp, and the conversation in the tent was even more clear, and he proposed a good way to solve the problem, so that veteran generals like Liang Shuang and Du Ze could not make mistakes, which shows his superb talent .If Ali is a woman, maybe she can be a general and marshal.But now because Ali is a man, even if he wants to do such a job as a guard, he has to go through many tests before he can get the approval of those women.

If there is no opportunity created by Yuhui, Ali will never have the possibility to show his talent, right?If there is no Yuhui, Ali may have been a poor slave who was bullied and died under torture.Yu Hui changed Ali's fate.

Unknowingly, Cheng Yuan remembered the prophecy left by the eminent monk on the day Ali was born: Ali is a lucky star from heaven, if he gets the help of the nobles to lead the army and become a commander, he will surely protect the prosperity of Huaguo in the future.Yuhui is the noble person that Ali hits, right?Judging from all the things Yuhui is doing to Ali, it seems that she wants Ali to develop and display her talents in the army.This is exactly what the prophecy meant.

When Cheng Yuan thought of these things, he was full of longing for Ali's future, and at the same time, he also had greater worries.Because of Ali's physical condition.He had once heard the emperor briefly mention that Ali had suffered severe injuries many times and had countless physical injuries, so he might not live long.A Li's own words both inside and out also revealed the implication that he was about to die early.He couldn't just watch such a thing happen, he didn't want a white-haired person to send a black-haired person, and he didn't want to see Ali leave without waiting for happiness after suffering so much.He wants to make more plans for Ali, so that Ali can enjoy more care and experience the love of his family in his lifetime.

Yuhui probably thought so too, right?So she tried to eat every meal with Ali as much as possible. They often sat around together, not talking about military affairs, but also talking about mountains, rivers, geography, customs and even trivial life.Yuhui is trying to create a harmonious family atmosphere, right?As Ali's biological father, he should actively cooperate so as not to disappoint Yuhui's painstaking efforts.

After Cheng Yuan comprehended this truth, he no longer rejected any of Yuhui's arrangements. On occasions where only the three of them were together, he let go of his worries and showed more affection and concern for A Li and Yuhui.That is not a fatherly love that can be described in words. Those are all contained in the subtleties of life and blended in invisible care.
