Chapter 308: Who asked me to marry a wolf?

Chapter 308 Who asked me to marry a wolf?

At this time, Tao Hongying brought in a large pottery bowl of dumplings stuffed with pork and cabbage, and said with a smile: "Come, Mr. Yan, eat your fill first. There is also porridge and boiled eggs in the pot. When Madam Hui wakes up, we can make them at any time." All can be eaten.”

Mr. Yan was relieved, and after thanking him, he wolfed down the food.

When everyone saw that the pottery bowl had reached the bottom, they were relieved. It was a good thing to be able to eat.

Soon, everyone dispersed.

That night, the old lady stayed with the couple in the east room, and she had someone to take care of them if anything happened.

The good news came and ran to sleep with me under the covers.

She was also curious about how her father and mother negotiated and whether he could go on the expedition.

It's a pity that Li Laosi called his son home again, and then the father and son lay on the kang and rode a big horse. They made a couplets and lifted the daughter into a sedan chair. All the brothers were invited to play together.

Jiayin was having a good time and slept soundly. Naturally, he didn’t see his parents’ hands holding each other’s hands all night long. They held them with too much reluctance...

The Yan family's carriage was hidden by Uncle Zhao and others. Mr. Yan and his wife did not go out. People in the village had long developed the good habit of being tight-lipped.

Therefore, Mr. Yan and Huiniang have been living in the village for seven or eight days, but no one has come here.

Master Yan’s wounds on his back have turned into scabs, and he can now walk under the eaves.

Hiniang can now sit up and take care of herself, eat, drink and defecate.

She has a quiet and gentle temperament, is rare to be diligent, and her embroidery work is excellent.

The old lady occasionally sews, and if I talk to her, she will help match the embroidery thread.

If the old lady was busy doing something, she would pick it up and sew a few stitches and embroider a piece. The old lady and Tao Hongying would be full of praise when they saw it.

She also sewed some small things by herself, which not only filled her spare time but also made her not tired.

In just a few days, Jiayin got two beautiful purses and a small cloth bag for snacks, which made Jiayin smile.

This afternoon, Mr. Hou, who had been in the city for many days, finally came back.

Jiayin is riding on Daddy’s neck, wandering around the yard and basking in the sun.

This place in the south of the Yangtze River is very different from that in the north.

At this time of year, people in Saibei can still freeze to death. They cannot leave the big kang every day and cannot leave the house.

But here in Jiangnan, it is warm outside and cold inside. Sitting on the hot kang, my legs are covered with quilts.

When Li Laosi heard the noise, he rushed out with his daughter on his back. Ye Shan was carrying things to the yard next door. Master Hou picked up two boxes and shook them at Jiayin, "Fu Niu, I brought you something good!"

Jiayin clapped his hands happily and almost fell off his father's shoulders.

Li Laosi quickly helped his daughter and asked in a low voice: "Master Marquis, have you set a date for the expedition?"

The Marquis nodded and replied with a smile: "It's decided, it will be the day after tomorrow, but if my aunt doesn't agree, I don't dare to take you with me."

As soon as Mr. Hou reminded him, Li Laosi became bitter.

In the past few days, my mother has been cold-faced and refused to pay attention to him. He was so anxious that he really couldn't guess what my mother was thinking...

Suddenly, they entered the courtyard. The old lady heard the movement and came out to greet them. Mr. Yan also followed behind. The marquis greeted him for a few words.

At this moment, the village chief and Uncle Zhao knew that the Marquis was back, so they all gathered to chat.

Hearing that he was going to go on an expedition the day after tomorrow, everyone was curious.

“Are you finally afraid of those scraps and scraps in the imperial court?”

The Marquis nodded and said with a rare joke: "The barbarians attacked the dock twice. The second time they almost crossed the river. The old guys in the court were so frightened that they almost peed their pants. Dingbei Hou also excused himself from illness and refused to go any further. Go and sit down at the dock.

"The emperor directly asked for the military power back and gave it to me. He asked me to take charge of an army of 50,000 people and to defend and counterattack with all my strength. We will go on an expedition the day after tomorrow. Come back today to see everyone, and I will go back to Kyoto tomorrow!"

Everyone clapped and applauded.

“Okay, okay, that’s it! Those dumb people can talk big, and when something happens, they’ll be scared to death!”

"At the critical moment, it depends on the real ability of Mr. Hou!" Mr. Li looked at my mother longingly and wanted to ask a few questions, but he didn't dare.

The old lady didn't see her son like this, so she only hugged her granddaughter and talked.

Tao Hongying, on the other hand, could not see her husband being wronged, so she softly helped and begged for mercy.

“Mother, please let the fourth child go on an expedition with the Marquis... If he stays at home, I’m afraid he won’t have a smile on his face. Rather than doing this, it’s better for him to do whatever he wants.”

The old lady sighed and pulled her daughter-in-law to sit down. "You are just soft-hearted. The fourth brother is gone. I'm afraid you won't be able to eat well and sleep well, so you have to think about him day and night."

Tao Hongying's eyes turned red, "Mom, you can marry a chicken, a dog, a dog, but who told me to marry a wolf? You can trap him for a while, but you can't trap him forever. And he has been at home for so many years, and he has been very good. Now I have With a daughter by his side and a mother to love him, he can go wherever he wants to go! "

The old lady remained silent for a long time before asking the good news, "Has Fu Niu been with daddy these days? Did you let daddy take advantage of your blessing!"

"Yes!" Jiayin nodded heavily, "Fu Niu'er has given daddy a lot of blessings."

Sure enough, the old lady smiled, kissed her granddaughter, and then said: "Sir, get ready and go on an expedition with the Marquis. But remember, you are not allowed to be reckless at any time outside. You must listen to the Marquis and come back safely..."

“Mother!” Li Laosi was so excited that he knelt down and kowtowed to his mother, “Thank you, mother. I will definitely not get into trouble and come back safely.”

Old Mrs. Li waved her hands helplessly.

At this moment, she was extremely glad that she had asked Jiayi to accompany her boss to the south early, otherwise she would definitely have made trouble this time and followed the Marquis to the battlefield together.

The Marquis then ordered Ye Shan, "Bring the box over."

Ye Shan left in response and quickly brought a long box over.

Jiayin quickly jumped off her grandma’s lap and ran to the Marquis’ side.

The Marquis hugged her and looked at each other, tacitly saying, "I found some good materials and made some weapons for the fourth child."

Mr. Hou pointed to the box and said, "Fourth, take a look. Is it suitable for use?"

Li Laosi rubbed his hands excitedly and quickly opened the box.

There was a saber over two feet long placed in the box. It was completely black and only the blade was bright. The handle of the knife was wrapped with a special leather belt to absorb sweat and prevent it from slipping.

Li Laosi shook it in his hand. It was very heavy. Ordinary people might find it burdensome, but it was just right for him.

He waved it twice, and the length was just right.

The entire knife has no gorgeous patterns, but it is intimidating. It looks like a sharp weapon for harvesting human heads.

“Good knife, good knife!” Li Laosi smiled so much that his lips reached to his ears.

The Marquis also nodded, "Materials are rare, otherwise I would have equipped the whole army with them, but it's a pity that I only have this one. For the remaining scraps, I asked the craftsman to make you two daggers, twenty arrows, and more. Ku bought you a longbow, equip it and practice diligently whenever you have time."

“Thank you, Mr. Hou!”

Li Laosi hurriedly rummaged through the box again. He was more comfortable with a bow and arrow than with a saber.

Now that he has a good bow and sharp arrows, he is even more powerful than a tiger!

But no man can resist the temptation of a good weapon. The village chief, Uncle Zhao and others also came forward, touched the saber and pointed the arrowhead, and they liked it very much.

The Marquis took advantage of this moment to open the two small boxes and secretly whispered to Jiayin, "There are a lot of good things in the inner treasury. My adoptive father also got some jewelry for you. If you can't take it with you for the time being, just leave it there until you grow up." Wear it again.”

Jiayin beamed with joy, kissed her adoptive father and ran away quickly, finding a place where no one was around to send the box into space.

Her little treasury has grown again!

Of course, the old lady and Tao Hongying saw the little guy's little moves, but they just didn't want to expose it.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law talked in low voices, thinking about packing the fourth child's luggage.

If there is anything that the Marquis can use, he should prepare an extra portion.

At this time, Mr. Yan, who had been silently listening to the excitement, suddenly stood up and knelt down in front of the Marquis...
