Chapter 87

Xie Duanyu hugged Xu Xiaofu tightly in his arms, and said: "The barbarians have suffered heavy losses in this war, and it will take at least ten years to recover. During these ten years, they dare not act rashly until the matter in the capital is resolved. In the end, when the crown prince ascends the throne, he will definitely send people to negotiate with the barbarians..."

After Xu Xiaofu understood this, he didn't say much, but quietly snuggled into Xie Duanyu's arms, thinking that the two of them would be separated in a few days, he couldn't help feeling even more uncomfortable.

The two snuggled together quietly, feeling a moment of tranquility.

Xie Duanyu left a few days later, and Xu Xiaofu didn't know until midnight that he had left when he got up in the morning. Shancha helped her dress and freshen up, and then served breakfast.There was a northerly wind outside, and when Xu Xiaofu went to the next room to wake the children up for dinner, the wind blew on his face and it hurt him.

While having breakfast, He Hua and Xie Qi learned that it was nothing to worry about when Xie Duanyu returned to the capital, but Xie Qi's face was a little gloomy. Now that Xie Lin started to recognize people, and finally got to know Xie Duanyu, he suddenly couldn't see his father in the morning. He began to cry loudly, Xu Xiaofu coaxed him for a long time before finally coaxing him.Seeing Xie Qi's displeased look, he smiled at him and said, "Does Qi'er blame daddy for not counting? He clearly said that he would teach Qi'er how to practice martial arts, but he returned to the capital?"

A few days ago, Xie Duanyu would teach Xie Qi to practice martial arts for a while every night after he came back, but now he suddenly knew that his father had left again, the little guy was really sad and sad and missed him.

Xie Qi nodded sullenly, "That's right, Daddy also said that he would teach me to practice kung fu well, and I will be a hero in the future when I go to the battlefield to protect my family and the country." The little guy remembered these words clearly.

Xu Xiaofu said with a smile: "Then Qi Er, don't blame Daddy, Daddy also went back to the capital to protect the family and the country, and Daddy did not forget the agreement with Qi Er, Daddy found a master for Qi Er to teach Qi Er to practice kung fu. After breakfast, Qi Er will go to practice with the master, okay?" When Xie Duanyu left, he left a lot of guards for the Xie family, and even found a guard master for Xie Qi, whose skill is not low.

Xie Qi's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he said happily, "Mother, is it true?"

Xu Xiaofu said in a small way: "Of course it's true. In the future, the time of practice will be one hour in the morning and one hour in the afternoon. Can Qi Er persist?" Xie Duanyu really planned to train Xie Qi well, and he was no longer playing around like before.

Xie Qi's eyes were bright, and he nodded his head heavily, "Mother, don't worry, Qi'er will persevere!" The little guy is full of confidence.

After breakfast, the master Xie Duanyu found for Xie Qi came over. He was a middle-aged man in his 40s, and his official position under Xie Duanyu seemed to be quite high. Now he is serving as the commander of the guards in Xie's mansion. His surname is Gao Minglin.Xu Xiaofu led Xie Qi and stood under the eaves, looking at the burly and unmoving guard commander in the courtyard, rushed to Xie Qi and said, "Qi'er, this will be your master from now on, you must listen to your master's words, no matter how hard you are Don't cry, don't complain to mother, you know?"

Xie Qi nodded, the little guy didn't seem to have expected the hard life in the future, he just thought it was fun, and went up to Gao Lin to pay his respects, the little boy said loudly: "Qi Er has seen Master, Qi Er From now on, I will listen to my master!"

There was a hint of a smile at the corner of Gao Lin's mouth, he squatted down and patted the little guy who was blown in the cold wind and couldn't stand, "Good boy!"

Xu Xiaofu handed Xie Qi to Gao Lin, and it was enough to send it back at noon, then he carried Xie Lin and led the lotus back to the room.At that time, the little lotus girl was a little worried, "Mother, my brother is still so young, will this be bad?"

Xu Xiaofu was also a little dazed, obviously he also felt sorry for the child, and after thinking about it, he said: "This is Qi'er's own choice. As the eldest son of the general, this is indispensable. His journey will be even harder and harder in the future. Difficult to walk..."

He Hua didn't say anything anymore, but just stared at the heavy curtain at the door in a daze all morning, obviously worried about Xie Qi.

Xie Qi came back when he was eating at noon, he seemed a little excited, but his hands and feet were trembling a little, looking at the little guy's frozen red face, Xu Xiaofu hugged him in his arms, and felt his little hands were still warm Only then did I feel relieved.Before she could ask Lotus anything, the little guy started chirping, "Mother, sister, master is amazing, he can lift such a big rock in one go!" The master asked me to do the horse stance for half an hour, and then he told me the story for half an hour because he was afraid that I would be tired."

Xu Xiaofu said in a small way: "What story did the master tell Qi Er?"

Xie Qi touched his little head and groaned for a long time without explaining what the story was, obviously he was still young and couldn't understand the story told by the master.Seeing that the little guy was in good spirits, Xu Xiaofu was not worried, and asked him to practice with Gao Lin every day.

In the blink of an eye, winter has passed, and the hillside in the distance is green, and the weeds on the ground are sprouting, and they are full of vitality. It has been almost three months since Xie Duanyu left, and Xu Xiaofu is living every day. It's very simple, just stay in the mansion, and occasionally go to Meng's yard.Not knowing the situation in the capital, Xu Xiaofu was worried every day.

Spring is here, and Xu Xiaofu couldn't be bothered to have anything to do in the mansion, so he asked someone to plow in the backyard quickly, plant some seasonal vegetables, and then cook every day for a few children or grandparents, Bai's get something delicious.Mrs. Bai didn't know if it was because she had experienced all of this, she became more and more open, it was completely different from the Mrs. Bai before, Xu Xiaofu secretly hoped that even if she returned to the capital in the future, she also hoped that her mother-in-law would continue to behave like this, but Never be the same again.

But she said that after experiencing these things, Mrs. Bai really sees it, her children and grandchildren have their own blessings, and her son is not something she can control, so she might as well live her life with peace of mind.

This day when Xu Xiaofu was sleeping in a daze, he suddenly heard camellia's exclamation from outside, Xu Xiaofu hurriedly put on his coat and went out, the sky was not very bright outside, Xu Xiaofu only vaguely saw the The shadow of Shancha in the corridor said, "Shancha, what's wrong?"

Before Shan Cha could answer what was going on, Xu Xiaofu saw two shadows at the moon gate in the yard, among them was the faint shadow of Xiao Hui.Xiao Hui followed Xu Xiaofu here and got used to the life here, most of the time Xiao Hui stayed in the mountains and forests, occasionally came back to visit and brought back some wild game for Xu Xiaofu.Xu Xiaofu hadn't seen Xiao Hui for several days, unexpectedly he came back today, the one next to Xiao Hui seemed to be a wolf too, smaller than Xiao Hui, no wonder Shan Cha exclaimed.

Xu Xiaofu tentatively called out to Xiao Hui, Xiao Hui yelped twice, walked to Xu Xiaofu's side and rubbed her hand, the one at the door suddenly howled, the voice was full of hostility , Xiao Hui suddenly turned around and yelped twice at that one, then Xu Xiaofu saw the one at the door yelled twice, then lay down on the ground.

Xu Xiaofu was secretly startled, guessing that the other wolf should be Xiao Hui who found a partner outside, but Xu Xiaofu didn't dare to get close to that wolf, he just patted Xiao Hui's head, regardless of whether it understood or not, He smiled and said: "Xiao Hui, congratulations."

Xiao Hui didn't know if he understood, so he yelled twice, Xiao Hui only stayed for a while, and then left the deserted garden with another wolf, Xu Xiaofu stood under the pale sky and watched The figures of Xiao Hui and the other wolf gradually disappeared, and I felt a lot of feelings in my heart. It seems that Xiao Hui will settle in this city in the future. The crown prince succeeds, I'm afraid there won't be any major turmoil in the next few decades, Xiao Hui also has his own home, it's great...

There are also a few wealthy families in the border town. Some ancestors may have been officials in Beijing. Now they have come to the border. Naturally, the situation is not as good as before. However, the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, so it can still be counted as belonging to the border town. Big family.Ever since Xie Duanyu won the victory in the winter, people have invited Mrs. Bai to be a guest one after another, but Mrs. Bai has rejected them all. In the end, these families seem to see that Mrs. Bai has no intention of being in charge of the family. After handing over the house to the general's wife, these people began to invite Xu Xiaofu one after another.

Xu Xiaofu was not interested in these things at first, but these people invited them frequently, as if he would not give up if he didn't go, Xu Xiaofu had no choice but to ask Bai Shi for instructions, Bai Shi said: "You will be the head of the Xie family in the future, After returning to the capital, there must be a lot of entertainment, so it’s okay to go to practice now..."

Xu Xiaofu responded.

Bai said again: "Lotus is also ten years old, it's time to take her out to see the world, no matter what, since she followed you into our Xie family, she is naturally the young lady of the Xie family, so you take her out more and more, In the future, it is necessary to let her go around with those ladies from the aristocratic families in the capital, and it would be good to go out and meet more." Bai seemed to think about it, instead of hiding it like this, it would be better to show it openly in front of everyone, and the lotus flower That girl looks quiet, since Xu Xiaofu is married to Duan Yu, no matter what, she is the young lady of the Xie family, and it is necessary to marry a better family in the future, it is better to see the world earlier, Raise her well.

Xu Xiaofu glanced at Bai Shi in surprise, and then he became grateful to Bai Shi in his heart, and bowed to her, "Daughter-in-law will remember what mother said."

Bai Shi waved his hand, "Alright, let's go down."

Xu Xiaofu backed out, looked at the blue sky above his head and couldn't help showing a smile, and then returned to his yard.

Lotus is practicing calligraphy in the room, Xu Xiaofu doesn't bother her, knowing that her daughter has to practice calligraphy for half an hour every morning.Only waiting for Hehua to put down the pen, Xu Xiaofu took a closer look at his daughter's handwriting. Although it was not as good as those of the great ladies who read and wrote since childhood, the handwriting was delicate, and they did not hesitate to write. The handwriting is so delicate and elegant.
