Speaking of this, Xie Changyu has nothing to say.

Xie Wei turned to Xie Changyu and said, "Lei Jun just said that I met a Qiu girl this afternoon. She was very aggressive. My father thinks you should marry a martial artist who is stronger."

"This way you won't always lose your life to give birth to a child."

"..."

Xie Changyu was silent for a moment, holding Xie Wei's elbow: "Father drank too much, go back and rest."

"Father, I'm serious." Xie Wei muttered as he walked to his yard: "You really have to get a wife, you can't hang around like this forever."

"Otherwise, as the children get older and you get older, it will be even more difficult to handle. You can't keep doing this, right? You said you don't behave like the second and fifth children."

"You don't have a wife or concubine by your side. Where can you vent your anger? You -"

"Father." Xie Changyu interrupted Xie Wei's chanting: "Be careful of the steps."

"..." Xie Wei sighed, knowing that what he said would not reach his ears.

This is a refusal to communicate.

It's better when my son is older.

Being able to stand alone, his old father was happy and at ease.

But there are also disadvantages.

That’s because they have too many ideas, and it’s hard for parents to intervene too much. It’s not that they don’t want to, but that they can’t intervene and interfere!

Xie Changyu helped Xie Wei to the courtyard and sent him to rest.

Xie Wei couldn't help but said: "Find a matchmaker."

Xie Changyu followed the good advice: "Okay, let's rest first."

Xie Wei drank a few drinks and was not drunk, but his head was dizzy, so he was taken care of by his son and fell asleep.

When Xie Wei was almost asleep, Xie Changyu got up and walked out.

The night wind blew in his face, and Xie Changyu stood still in front of the courtyard, still thinking about what his father had just said in his mind.

When he got married, the situation in various places was not stable. To be honest, the marriage was done in a hurry.

After getting married, he went to Yaocheng to garrison for several years.

Then he returned to Beijing to take a concubine for the sake of his children. As a result, he went to Youyun to control the troops, and when he received the news that something happened to the concubine, something happened again.

Because of these two incidents, he had a somewhat reputation as a wife-suppressant.

Naturally, with the current status of the Xie family, if they want to choose the crown prince's concubine, I don't know how many people will give their daughter away if they are not afraid of the reputation of being a wife.

It's not that he can't marry, it's just that it's hard to choose.

For Xie Changyu, family status is secondary. What matters is temperament and whether he can be good to his children and family.

And there's age.

Xie Changyu is not a high-flying young man, and he doesn't like girls who are delicate and simple like flowers.

He was already thirty years old and he really had no intention of marrying a daughter and taking care of her.

What he needs is a dignified and prudent wife and mother, who can lead a man's life outside and a woman's housework.

It's not that there aren't such women, it's just that there are very few.

Moreover, most of these women were carefully raised by aristocratic families, so they would naturally be very hesitant about Xie Changyu's decision to marry his wife, raise a stepson, and later inherit.

In this way, Xie Changyu's marriage is stuck here.

A few months ago, a letter came from Beijing, asking Yun Qi to find a suitable matchmaker.

Xie Changyu also declined.

He was afraid that because of the power of the Xie family and the favor of the emperor, it would still be Xie Huan who would suffer the consequences.

If there isn't such a suitable candidate, it's better not to choose.

As for what Xie Wei said just now about the shrewd second young lady of the Qiu family, Xie Changyu took it all as drunken talk.

Although women who practice martial arts are in better health, they are not suitable candidates with such a flamboyant temperament.

The most suitable candidate in his mind should be someone like the younger sister who can control both the outside world and the inside, be steady and thoughtful, and have both civil and military skills. But such women are rare.

Xie Changyu's thoughts reached this point, and he clasped his hands behind his back and walked towards his courtyard.

……

Early the next morning, Xie Changyu took Xie Huan for a walk around the outskirts of the city.

Autumn is the harvest season, and many people in the suburbs are harvesting.

Xie Changyu took Xie Huan to have a look.

Xie Huan had only been in Youyun for a year, and he had grown up in Pennsylvania since he was a child. Many of the scenery here in Youyun had never been seen before, and he couldn't tell what kind of bankers the people were selling.

So I would ask Xie Changyu a few questions from time to time.

Xie Changyu replied as patiently as possible.

But children always have a lot of "whys", and sometimes Xie Changyu can't even answer the questions.

Whenever this happened, Lei Jun would smile and take over the conversation. Although he might not be able to answer Xie Huan's questions, the atmosphere was always harmonious.

While the two were talking, they drove their horses to a tree.

Xie Changyu rolled over and lifted Xie Huan down and placed him on the ground.

"Dad, can I go take a look at that field ridge?" Xie Huan asked.

Xie Changyu waved his hand: "Go ahead and be careful."

"Okay!"

Xie Huan happily ran up the field ridge not far away, followed by the servants taking care of him and Xie Changyu's personal soldiers to protect the child's safety.

Xie Changyu stood under the tree and watched from a distance, intently.

Lei Jun said helplessly: "Earlier, I said that Miss Qiu Er is fierce. My son, look at my daughter. She is not an economical person. I don't know who will dare to ask for her in the future."

When he came out today, Lei Jun also brought his own pair of children.

The eldest daughter is already seventeen, and the son is fifteen.

The two of them had been with the army since childhood and were very naughty. As soon as they arrived at the outskirts of the city, they went to race horses and ran without a trace.

Xie Changyu said calmly: "Don't be anxious if you don't find the right one, look for it slowly, fate will always come."

"That's what they say, but if you keep searching slowly like this, when will you wait for fate?" Lei Jun sighed: "I think you have to take the initiative to search for it, otherwise fate will fall from the sky and fall into your arms. "

How could Xie Changyu fail to hear the hidden meaning behind his words?

He was silent for a moment and lowered his eyes, "It's hard to find."

He was talking about Lei Jun's son and daughter, and he was also talking about himself.

Lei Jun took advantage of the situation and suggested: "I heard that there is a horse racing meeting at the racecourse on the outskirts of the city a few days ago. It was held by Princess Hanshan. Many noble men and women were invited to participate. The scene was very grand."

"Your Majesty, you might as well go and take a walk to see if there is a suitable candidate."

Xie Changyu's eyebrows slightly raised as if to refuse.

He has been guarding the border for many years and is not sensitive to such excitement.

Not to mention the Jockey Club.

For him, horses are comrades and brothers.

But the Horse Club would say that it sounds like a circus. There is always a sense of disobedience when a well-trained horse or knight performs tricks for a group of people.

It's just that he knows that the world is vast, and his own thoughts are his own after all, and he cannot force others to think the same as him, so he keeps away from the excitement.

Lei Jun immediately said: "Go and have a look. This is what the Duke mentioned last night. Just take a look and forget about it if you don't find anything suitable. And I heard that there are many good horses. You can bid and see if they are good." The breed of horse."

The rejection between Xie Changyu's brows was a little wavering. He pondered for a moment and nodded: "Well, if you send a post, just leave it."

Lei Jun laughed happily.

At this moment, Xie Huan's laughter suddenly came from not far away. (End of chapter)
