Chapter 518 Ruyan, Why Did You Become a Girl?

After talking about official business with Wei Linchun in the yamen, Chen Mo did not stay long and got up and left the yamen.

Outside the yamen, Xu Ying's maid Qinghuan was stopped by Sun Meng. She was holding a food box, constantly standing on tiptoe, looking up at the yamen.

"General Sun, can't you really do me a favor?" Qinghuan bit her thin lips, and looked at Sun Meng with a pair of simple big eyes with pleading.

Qinghuan was not ugly, and could be considered a little beauty. However, facing Qinghuan's pleading, Sun Meng said seriously: "It is my duty, Miss Qinghuan, there is no need to say anything more."

Qinghuan was the maid beside Xu Ying. If she was an ordinary maid, Sun Meng would have drunk her wine long ago.

Seeing this, Qinghuan could only tighten her robe and endure the whistling cold wind to wait.

Fortunately, it didn't take long this time, and a tall and slender figure walked out of the yamen.

Sun Meng saluted quickly: "Marquis."

Although Chen Mo was promoted to Duke, Sun Meng was used to calling him Marquis and had not changed from the previous title.

"Who is this?" Chen Mo looked at Qing Huan and asked in confusion.

Sun Meng was about to speak.

Qing Huan said quickly: "Duke Anguo, I am Qing Huan, this is the peach cake made by Madam for you. She told me to deliver it to you. Madam has just learned a butterfly dance and wants to dance it for Duke Anguo."

Chen Mo was stunned and asked in confusion: "Who is your Madam?"

"Xu Ying." Qing Huan said.

Hearing this, Chen Mo's mind suddenly appeared Xu Ying's figure.

Chen Mo is also a real scumbag. It may be that the halo of Queen Xu Ying has faded for too long. He knew that this move was Xu Ying's invitation to him, but he was not very interested. Moreover, he just came back and did not go home first but went to Tongque Garden first, which was not right.

"Thank your wife for me. It's getting late. I still have some things to deal with. I'll go see her another day."

He motioned Sun Meng to accept the peach cake sent by Qinghuan.

Without saying much to Qinghuan, Chen Mo got on his horse and drove towards Pingting Marquis' Mansion.

At this moment, Pingting Marquis' Mansion was changing the plaque of "Anguogong Mansion".

When the imperial edict came down, Wu Mi ordered the people below to do it. Today, it was finally made after rushing.

Seeing Chen Mo coming back, the servants hurriedly saluted and then went in to inform the ladies.

"You should go back and rest early. You have been with me for so long and it's hard. Go back to accompany your wife and children and say hello to them for me."

Take the food box from Sun Meng's hand, Chen Mo, who was heading into the mansion, thought of something and turned back to say to Sun Meng.

Hearing this, Sun Meng felt extremely honored. The Marquis not only cared about him, but also cared about his family.

At this moment, Sun Meng wanted to die for Chen Mo.

Sun Meng bowed and said respectfully: "Thank you for your concern, Lord. I am not tired. These are my duties."

"Go back." Chen Mo patted Sun Meng's shoulder and smiled.

"Yes."

...

Just as he walked up to the corridor leading to the backyard, a group of beautiful women came from the end of the corridor. It was Wu Mi, Han Anniang and others who came to greet them.

Chen Mo hurriedly stepped forward and handed the food box in his hand to the maid next to him. He supported Wu Mi with one hand and Han Anniang with the other, and said: "I am not so hypocritical, no need to greet them."

"I heard from the servants that my husband returned home. The child probably heard it and kicked me again. Anyway, it's only a few steps away." Wu Mi stroked her big belly and said.

Han Anniang's eyes flickered, and she couldn't help but envy Wu Mi. These words made her think hard but couldn't say them.

"You."

Chen Mo gently pinched Wu Mi's little hand, thinking that she was too smart.

"Husband, what's in this box?" Yi Shiyan looked at the food box in the maid's hand and asked curiously.

Chen Mo said: "This is the peach cake sent by Xu Ying."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xia Zhining immediately said: "After all, you came from the palace. She used tricks when you just came back."

"Zhi Ning." Xia Zhiqing took Xia Zhining's arm and said softly.

Yi Shiyan was stunned for a moment, but soon the smile on her face became more intense. No matter how delicate a woman is, she has to please her husband at this time.

Wu Mi also raised her eyebrows, but she was calm and didn't care. She said: "Husband, I have asked the servants to boil hot water, and the food in the kitchen is ready. You can start eating after you finish bathing."

Chen Mo nodded and said: "After all, it's her heart. Leave one for me, and you can share the rest."

...

While Chen Mo was bathing, Sun Meng also returned to his house.

When Sun Meng was in Pingting County, he had already married a wife and concubines, and had children.

Later, because of what happened in Qingzhou, he brought his family to Xiangyang.

As soon as he returned to the mansion, he saw several trays on the table in the living room.

When his wives and concubines learned that Sun Meng had returned, they also came over with their children.

Although they had been apart for so long, the children did not feel strange. Instead, they threw themselves into his arms as soon as they saw Sun Meng.

Sun Meng held his little son, whose head was only as tall as his waist, and asked his wife, "What are these?"

"Master, don't you know?" Sun Meng's wife asked in confusion.

Sun Meng shook his head.

"These are silks and satins sent by the eldest lady of the Marquis's Mansion, and some gold and silver jewelry. It is said that the master has rewarded me and my sisters for his meritorious service in expelling foreign enemies in the north and protecting the Marquis." Sun Meng's wife said.

Sun Meng was stunned, and after a long silence, he muttered to himself, "After all, he is from a famous family."

At this moment, Sun Meng's loyalty to Chen Mo soared again.

But it was not over yet.

When he finished bathing and had dinner with his family.

The servant came to report that someone from the Marquis' Mansion had arrived.

Sun Meng went to greet them in person.

The person brought a food box with a steaming braised fish in it.

And Sun Meng recognized it at a glance, it was a spiritual fish.

His wife also knew that it was a gift from the Marquis to her master.

"The Marquis is like a reborn parent to me." Sun Meng said with a choked voice.

And this fish was not only given to Sun Meng by Chen Mo, but also to all the meritorious generals who returned from the north.

This method of winning people's hearts, Chen Mo has already mastered it.

Chen Mo sat on a pear wood chair, holding his son Chen Nuo, with Wu Mi on the right, Yi Shiyan on the left, Han Anniang on the left, Xia Zhiqing on the left, etc.

Chen Mo glanced at the women around the round table, and then found something wrong: "Where is Ruyan?"

"I have sent someone to call her." Wu Mi said softly.

As soon as the voice fell, a figure walked in from outside the hall.

Chen Mo was stunned for a while.

Because at this moment, Yue Ruyan was wearing a light blue long dress, and her hair was tied into a girl's bun. Even under her willow-leaf thin eyebrows, her eyes were no longer cold, but with panic and helplessness.

Chen Mo smiled and asked: "Ruyan, why did you change into a girl's body?"
