Rebirth: My mother and I learned to practice cultivating immortals and became a scholar. The girl pa

With my father-in-law here, it would be hard for the old general to go to a hot pot restaurant to eat hot pot.

The two chatted until the sun began to set, and both of them said they were tired.

Eunuch Yu hasn't heard about Li Ling's return yet.

Eunuch Yu thought that as long as he was willing to lower his face and sit here waiting for others, they would not dare not come out.

Even if you want to save your face, you don't want to slap yourself in front of him.

At most, I would only dare to postpone it for a while, then lie and say that I just came back.

He knows everything about this.

There are people he cannot offend, and he will tolerate them.

However, the time spent pretending to be out is too long, right?

He looked at the sky outside. It was starting to get dark.

"Eunuch Yu, you see it's getting dark today, why don't we just eat first?"

The old general suggested.

"This is not..."

Mr. Yu wants to say no, our family is not hungry.

But how could he know?

After being a father-in-law for so many years, I have never been betrayed by anyone around me.

Unexpectedly, it was his own belly that betrayed him today.

The sound from his stomach made him a little embarrassed, and he hurriedly changed his words:

"This... you don't have to make it too sumptuous. Our emperor does not advocate extravagance and waste."

Fortunately, the powder on his face was thick enough today.

Otherwise, this old face will probably show red.

Even more fortunately, he didn't say the words of rejection before his stomach rumbled.

He also wants to thank him for betraying his belly?

"well!"

The veteran general was old, but not confused. He knew about Eunuch Yu's embarrassment, but he didn't expose it.

I just hope that the other party will go back when the time comes and tell the truth that he didn’t see the girl in the house.

After eating, the sky had completely darkened.

Eunuch Yu secretly looked at the old general's appearance. He couldn't tell that he looked a little guilty.

But the eldest prince said that the girl didn’t go out!

While the old general was walking away, he called the young father-in-law who had come with him to deliver the order.

Instruct him to quietly go find his servants and find out if there is anyone who can deliver food to the young lady in their house?

Naturally, their actions could not escape the eyes of the old general.

From the beginning of Li Ling's retreat, no one has ever sent her food.

The old general knew that there was a small kitchen in the small courtyard where she lived.

He also thought that Li Ling cooked it herself for convenience.

Knowing that Eunuch Yu asked people to inquire about this, he didn't care.

Just call the servants and let people tell the truth.

Soon, the little father-in-law came back and told Eunuch Yu what he had found out.

"Did you really go out?"

The eldest prince's people didn't keep an eye on him, so they didn't know when he left the mansion?

Seeing the old general coming back, Eunuch Yu couldn't sit still anymore.

He really didn't want to and didn't dare to sleep in the general's mansion, so he could only put on a smile again:

"Old General, I wonder if you can take our family to have a look?"

"This..." The old general was in a dilemma. If he went to that girl's yard, wouldn't he know that he had lied to them?

Seeing the old general in trouble, Eunuch Yu immediately thought of two possibilities. One was that the other party was concerned about his identity.

Second, their General Mansion really lied to him.

It would be easier to say if it was the first type, so he smiled and said:

"Old general, don't worry, we are not men, and we are not afraid of tarnishing the reputation of the young lady."

"Eunuch Yu, don't you believe what this old general said?"

The old general's face turned bad, and he felt a little guilty, so he could only show off his face to bluff others.

Hearing what the old general said, Eunuch Yu immediately thought of the second possibility.

However, when he thought about the other party's identity, he couldn't put on a bad face, and he also had to smile softly and say soft things:

"Old general, this is a misunderstanding. You see, our family has been waiting at the general's residence for so long.

At this glance, we know that our family is also helpless.

It's night! Concubine Shu is even more uncomfortable. If she can’t ask the little miracle doctor to come back, it will be hard for us to explain.

Old General, can you? Considering that we are just slaves, do you want to give our family a way to survive?

Just take a look, just a look.

We don't even enter the lady's boudoir, we just look outside the door. "

At least he had an explanation when he returned to the palace.

The worst he could do was go back and lie to Concubine Shu and the others, saying that he had already gone into the other party's boudoir to make sure they were not there.

He believed that Concubine Shu and the others would not doubt him.

The old general would not be so stupid as to tell Concubine Shu about such a thing.

When the old general frowned, he saw the old housekeeper wink at him from the corner of his eye and then quietly ran out.

The old general finally felt at ease.

It would be best not to break up with the other party, but it would not be good if such a small matter came to the emperor.

No matter what, Concubine Shu is also the Emperor's woman.

So, the old general nodded to his father-in-law.

Seeing the old general nodding, Eunuch Yu was relieved.

Just now he was still thinking: If the other party was unwilling to die or die, he wouldn't dare to be forceful.

No big deal, what are you thinking of? It would be nice if I could explain it to you.

If he doesn't do it right, the old general's troubles with the emperor will not end well.

This old general is not easy to mess with. Even though he is old, he is a man who can bravely go to the Empress Dowager to cry.

He is just a slave running errands, how can he mess with such a person?

The old general soon took Eunuch Yu to the courtyard where Li Ling lived.

The two Xiaos who were responsible for keeping vigil outside the courtyard gate saluted the old general and others one after another when they saw them coming.

It was so dark at night that Eunuch Yu couldn't tell how big the yard was.

I saw two rooms in the most remote part of the yard with dim candlelight.

Generally, a remote place like that is unlikely to be a place where masters would live.

Eunuch Yu looked over because there was a light over there and his body was conditioned to reflect, so his eyes glanced there unconsciously.

At this time, Grandma Xie and Chunxiang in the room knew someone had come in, so they hurriedly opened the door and came out with a lantern to take a look.

Seeing the two people coming out, Eunuch Yu secretly thought: Sure enough...

When Grandma Xie and Chunxiang saw that the old general was leading the way in, they finally let go of what they had been holding on to.

The two men hurriedly stepped forward to salute the old general.

As soon as the old general stepped into the gate of this courtyard, he saw that the only place with lights was where the two people lived.

He felt more at peace.

Then, he deliberately pretended to ask the two of them: "Where is your lady? Haven't you come back so late?"

The two people who bowed their heads and saluted heard the old general's question.

I immediately thought that the old housekeeper came over just now and hurriedly explained their affairs.

The two looked at each other and shook their heads in unison: "Go back to the old general, the lady hasn't come back yet."

Perhaps, I felt that by saying this, outsiders would easily misunderstand.

So, Nanny Xie hurriedly added: "The young lady told the slaves today that her master has arrived in the capital.

She will be with her master these days. "
