If you don't work hard to farm the fields, you will inherit the throne with the prince.

Chapter 57 The Second Brother Joins the Army
Xie Mingzhu also didn't expect that Xie Mingyu wanted to abandon literature and pursue martial arts, so she hesitated for a moment, but she still persuaded: "Second brother, what I said that day, I just hoped that you would understand Zhiqi's marriage, what really depends on it?" , I don’t mean to ask you to become a general.”

Mrs. Zhao didn't want her son to be some kind of general. She snorted angrily and said angrily, "Mingzhu, look at your second brother. Is he expected to be a general? Do you think it's easy to be a general?"

Xie Mingyu still lowered her head and didn't speak for a while.

As the head of the family, Xie Yunli looked at Xie Mingyu, thought for a while, and said: "If you really want to abandon literature and pursue martial arts, even if your mother and I object, we will not stop you. A good man has ambitions everywhere, but you have to Think about it, Zhiqi doesn't have a mother, if your father leaves, what will happen to her in the future?"

"Your mother and I are still here, Zhiqi can still follow us, but if your mother and I are gone someday, Zhiqi can only follow your elder brother and sister-in-law. No matter how good your elder brother and sister-in-law are, for Zhiqi, after all Not my own father, there is always a feeling of being dependent on others, I personally suggest that you think carefully."

"If you've thought it all over, but still want to go to the battlefield to make a living, then you go."

Xie Yunli analyzed all the pros and cons for Xie Mingyu one by one.

Xie Mingyu is not a three-year-old child, and it is impossible for parents to walk a lifetime for Xie Mingyu.

Xie Mingyu's path requires Xie Mingyu to walk and break through by herself.

"Father, I want to join the army."

Xie Mingyu insisted on going to join the army, but Xie Mingzhu felt uncomfortable.

Xie Yunli did not object now, but said to Xie Mingyu: "Then you have arranged the family affairs properly these days, and now that the family is separated, it is impossible for me and your mother to bring you Zhiqi for nothing, even if your brother has no objection, But you also have to consider the feelings of your in-laws, you are responsible for all the expenses of Zhiqi, and you can send it to your home on a monthly basis or annually."

Mrs. Zhao was so angry that she didn't want to pay attention to Xie Mingyu at all. If she had known that Xie Mingyu had married such a thing as Xia Manxing, she should have stopped this marriage even if she was looking for death and life.

"En." Xie Mingyu responded.

Xie Yunli said again: "Before you saw Xia Manxing's doctor, you borrowed Mingzhu's money, and you will return the loaned Mingzhu's money before you leave."

Xie Mingzhu hurriedly said: "Father, there is no need for second brother to pay back."

"No, your second brother must pay it back."

Xie Yunli thought about his three sons and one daughter, now Xie Mingzhu and Qin Che really seem to be doing well.

But because of this, he couldn't acquiesce in his son's money from his daughter's house.

"Your second brother goes to the pier to move wood during the day and copies books at night. It won't take much time if you work hard."

Xie Mingzhu looked at Xie Mingyu's figure, although he wasn't that of a frail scholar, but his figure was indeed not that of a coolie.

Xie Mingzhu wanted to say something else, but Zhao shook her head, then changed the subject and asked, "Mingzhu, is the stewed stuff in your kitchen almost ready?"

Xie Mingzhu agreed to enter the kitchen with Mrs. Zhao.

Mrs. Zhao was in the kitchen, whispering to Xie Mingzhu, and softly said: "Mingzhu, don't worry about your second brother, let your second brother suffer a little bit, so he knows how much he weighs."

Before Xie Mingzhu could speak, Zhao said again: "If he can endure these hardships and really wants to join the army, then go! Let him alone!"

Xie Mingyu seemed to have made up his mind, Xie Yunli and Zhao Shiyuan still wanted Xie Mingyu to take Xie Zhiqi back to Xiejia Village.

Looking at it now, maybe only the old couple went back.

Master Huafu paid the broken silver for the meal, and Aunt Yu wrapped the stewed chicken and duck in oiled paper, wrapped them in brown leaves and handed them to Master Huafu.

The young master in Huafu took the boy away.

In Yunlai Inn, tranquility has been restored.

Xie Yunli discussed with Xie Mingzhu and Qin Che's young couple: "Your second brother will eat and live here, and he will be treated as a guest. He doesn't need to live in a good place, just a firewood house. Your mother and I will go back in a while. "

Xie Mingzhu glanced at Qin Che, and said softly, "Qin Che, let Uncle Yu guard here, and we will go back to Xiejia Village with our parents."

Although the inn has opened, Qin Che and Xie Mingzhu will not stay in the inn all the time.

Qin Che doesn't want to make too much of a move to attract the capital's attention.

"it is good."

In the end, Uncle Yu stayed behind, and Aunt Yu returned to Xiejia Village with Qin Che and his party in a carriage.

Xie Mingzhu kept the braised pork and sold it before, but Xie Mingzhu took the brine with the carriage.

When passing through Zhao's natal home in Fengxiang Town, Zhao took some pork heads and fat intestines back to her natal home.

Xie Mingzhu and Qin Che didn't go to Zhao's mother's house because they still had to go to the pharmacy to buy medicine.

The drugstore shopkeeper now gives Xie Mingzhu medicines, all of which are at a loss.

The shopkeeper really didn't dare to let the new master write another IOU.

Xie Mingzhu said to Qin Che with a little apology: "Qin Che, this time you are back in Xiejia Village, you still have to continue taking medicinal baths and acupuncture."

"it is good."

When the group returned to Xiejia Village, Xie Mingzhu found that the seedlings in the paddy field in front of the yard were growing gratifyingly, and the harvest would definitely be good in autumn.

Taking advantage of their absence, Shi Da and Shi Erliang built the water mill and the small house above the water mill.

"Little aunt!"

Xie Zhiqin ran to Xie Mingzhu from a distance.

Xie Mingzhu reached out to hold Xie Zhiqin's hand, and asked, "Where are your parents?"

"Mother is in the field, father is at home."

After sitting in the carriage for several hours, Xie Mingzhu finally realized what it meant to be exhausted.

After she sat down with Qin Che, Shi Dalian quickly served hot tea.

This tea was brewed with bamboo leaf core, with a fragrance of bamboo leaves, Xie Mingzhu was tired and thirsty, so she drank a big cup.

Qin Che heard Xie Mingzhu's way of drinking tea without any ladylike image, but he didn't even frown, and asked softly, "Mingzhu, are you still thirsty?"

Xie Mingzhu smiled and said, "I'm not thirsty anymore!"

With no one else around, Xie Mingzhu stretched out her legs regardless of her image.

"When I was in the inn, there were neighbors from time to time, and I had to carry some. Sure enough, the golden nest and the silver nest are not as good as my dog's nest!"

The corner of Qin Che's mouth twitched imperceptibly.

"Lady, come, I will teach you how to read."

Xie Mingzhu thought that she pretended to be asleep last night, and fell asleep as soon as she pretended to be asleep. She couldn't read.

Who would have thought that Qin Che is a strict teacher!
She is not given a day off.

"You teach me to read some characters, so I can read the books in your study by myself."

So... Qin Che, who just came back from the county, taught Xie Mingzhu to read and write. Xie Mingzhu listened carefully, but it was hard for Xie Zhiqin and Xie Zhiqi. The two sisters were lying on the desk, sleeping soundly.
