Xu Shiqiu's sadness made the two women who were looking at him worry endlessly. Old Madame Xu wanted to speak up and comfort him, but Dong Shu had already stood up and walked to Xu Shiqiu's side. She looked at him and said: "Hubby, don't be sad.
Dong Shu did not know why Xu Shiqiu was feeling sad at this moment, nor did she know what happened at Xu Family back then.
However, in her heart, her husband was the best, so she naturally had to accompany him for the rest of her life.
Xu Shiqiu could feel the sincerity in his Young Girl's tone, and although he was confused, he was sincere when he saw the Young Girl. Suddenly, Xu Shiqiu smiled, and said with a bit of joy, apprehension, and expectation of sixty percent, "Mn, my wife, you have to accompany me always."
Xu Shiqiu felt that he didn't have much in mind now. He didn't need much, as long as Young Girl continued to stay with him and live a peaceful life, it would be fine.
Dong Shu didn't know what Xu Shiqiu was thinking, but she could tell that Xu Shiqiu's mood had improved.
Because Xu Shiqiu's mood had improved, she revealed a smile, and said happily: "Of course, hubby is so good, how can I not accompany hubby?"
Old Madame Xu couldn't help but give Dong Shu another glance when she saw her third son's mood change after hearing her third daughter-in-law's words.
She looked at her third son with a hint of joy in her eyes. Her eyes revealed a hint of a smile, and then she looked at the two of them and said: "Madame Dong's complexion is getting better, Mother is relieved."
After saying that, she looked at Dong Shu, then looked at him and said: "Mother has two sets of new and tender jewellery, when you go back later, take one, and leave the other one to Yanzhu."
Although the Old Madame Xu was biased towards Xu Shiqiu, she would never leave any clues for herself.
The two sets of jewelry were given to Xu Shiqiu's sister during the New Year's event last year for the sake of giving people to the Old Madame Xu.
did not have the two sets of jewelry, but as long as the Second Branch did not say anything, the eldest daughter-in-law, such a prideful person, would not say anything.
Perhaps, she still didn't have much interest towards the thing in Old Madame Xu's hands.
Xu Shiqiu understood all of this, so when he heard Old Madame Xu speak, he nodded his head in Dong Shu's stead. Then, he smiled at Old Madame Xu: "Today, I have obtained quite a few good things from Mother's place."
Hearing Xu Shiqiu's words, the Old Madame Xu glared at him angrily for a moment, then said: "Aren't all Mother's things meant for you guys? You're Mother's youngest son, so you naturally have to suffer a little.
Xu Shiqiu could understand Old Madame Xu's words.
His mother could give him more things, but she couldn't not give them to his eldest brother and second brother.
It was fine to pamper him, but he would definitely pamper his big brother and second brother.
But with regards to the current result, Xu Shiqiu was already satisfied.
He also knew that it was not good to scheme against the things in his mother's hands. However, he did not have the money nor could he leave the Young Girl.
Thankfully, his mother understood and did not say much.
But Xu Shiqiu had already made a rule in his heart, this matter could only happen once, he would make it up to his mother in the future.
Thinking to this point, Xu Shiqiu continued to tell his mother about what Xu Yanzhu had just told him.
"Mom, there's something I need to ask you."
Xu Shiqiu's attitude was good, and because his own bad luck had made the Old Madame Xu's heart ache, after he finished speaking of Xu Yanzhu's previous suggestion, the Old Madame Xu only pondered for a bit, then nodded and agreed.
"Not bad, Yanzhu's parents love their two sons even more. With a Third Uncle like you protecting her, I can rest more at ease in the future." After Old Madame Xu saw that Xu Shiqiu had finished speaking, she thought for a while before continuing, "There aren't many servants at home. Some of your father's sworn brothers had retired because of their injuries, but they are still skilled and have no problems with loyalty.
I will write a letter tomorrow morning, explaining this matter. If they wish, they will choose a few young juniors to come.
In the future, these people will be your subordinates, and can help Yanzhu just in time. "
Old Madame Xu was well aware of Xu Shiqiu's character, it was not easy for him to interact with those scholarly people.
And because of his own bad luck, even if those people choose to rely on his Xu Family, they would not be loyal to Xu Shiqiu in the future.
But his old subordinates were different.
These people had gone through life and death situations with their in-laws, and they were all long-time brothers of life and death.
Back then when something happened to her Xu Family, these people came to find her. But at that time, she felt sad and so she rejected them.
However, they had also left an address for her to write to when she needed it in the future.
When Xu Shiqiu heard the Old Madame Xu talk about this matter, he did not think too much and nodded immediately.
Although he was a Third Young Master of the Xu Family, because of bad luck, he did not go out for so many years.
Now that he had a way to control his bad luck, he definitely had to put his life on the line for himself, his wife, and his children.
He only thought that his bad luck could only be suppressed by the Young Girl. In the future, he would have to bring her along wherever he went.
Thinking up to here, Xu Shiqiu thought for a while, then continued, "Mother, I will also write a letter tonight, and tomorrow, I will have your people send it over to them. After all, it's for me to invite people over, or is it that I have more sincerity in writing a letter. "
Just as Xu Shiqiu finished speaking, Old Madame Xu sighed in heartache.
"Fine, Mother promises you, but I will also remind your uncles, if their nephew is unwilling, then don't blame their nephew either."
When Xu Shiqiu heard his mother's words, he heaved a sigh of relief.
Dong Shu didn't understand anything, but she obediently waited at the side.
Until the two of them took everything they had from the Main Yard and returned to the Shihuan Courtyard, Xu Shiqiu finally opened his mouth to tell Dong Shu about the relationship between his uncles and his father.
"They are all brothers who joined the army together with Father. According to Father, they have a total of ten or so sworn brothers, but only six survived in the end.
Of these six people, his father's luck was the best. His grandfather had taken a fancy to them and married his mother off to him.
That's why my Xu Family sect was able to change, otherwise my father wouldn't have a later status.
As for his uncles, because they didn't know how to read, and also didn't have a handsome face like his father, they had to marry into a good marriage. Therefore, their positions were not as high as his father's.
Later on, because of their injuries, they all left the army camp. However, because they still have some skills, their children and uncles have trained them quite well. "
After Xu Shiqiu said all this in an extremely calm tone, he did not mention in the slightest just how amazing his father was back then.
Dong Shu did not understand so much, but she could hear from her words that her husband truly respected and respected his uncles.
Since this was the case, since the children of his uncles were here, they must also be treated as relatives.
Thinking about that, Dong Shu looked at Xu Shiqiu and asked: "If they come, do they want to live in Shihuan Courtyard?"
Dong Shu asked with sincerity, she thought that since she was a relative, she should naturally stay at home.
It was just that the Xu Family was too big, and there weren't many empty houses in the Shihuan Courtyard, just two rooms in the front courtyard.
Xu Shiqiu did not think about all these, all of these were previously arranged by his mother, and now that he was married, it was true that it should be arranged by the Young Girl.
"There's an empty courtyard in front of the Shihuan Courtyard. I will have Cui Hua call some people to clean it up tomorrow. However, I still don't know how many will come, so there's no rush. "
Although Xu Shiqiu was confident in the brotherly relationship between his uncles and father, their nephew wasn't that close to him.
Furthermore, due to his bad luck, these people would probably hesitate.
After all, they were about the same age as him, so they must have gotten married and had children as well. Since he had a wife and children, he would definitely consider them more.
Furthermore, Xu Shiqiu planned on cultivating his own strength, so he was not going to put these people in the Xu Family.
After all, the three brothers hadn't split up yet.
However, there was no need to cause the Young Girl any trouble.
In order to divert the attention of the Young Girl, Xu Shiqiu looked at her and said: "My wife, your Cousin was previously working at a restaurant in the town. I wonder if he would be willing to work at your shop."
As Xu Shiqiu said this, Dong Shu was immediately attracted to it.
She looked at Xu Shiqiu, and after being stunned for a moment, she asked: "Master, how could it be my shop?"
Dong Shu's beautiful new moon eyes were filled with confusion, she simply could not understand why her husband would call those shops his.
Looking at his Young Girl's confused look, Xu Shiqiu forced a smile and quickly told him the reason he had thought of before, "My wife, your husband likes to train in the martial arts. He might even become a martial general in the future.
However, the imperial government has decreed that officials cannot do business, so these shops can only be placed under the name of the wife. "
Xu Shiqiu was not lying, although Dong Shu did not understand, she could ask Xu Yanzhu, so he did not lie to her.
However, Xu Shiqiu had purposely brought up the matter of becoming a martial general.
Dong Shu's eyes widened in shock when she heard Xu Shiqiu's words. She did not expect her husband to be an official.
Dong Shu did not understand the difference between a civil servant and a military officer, but she understood that people who could be an official were all powerful people.
Thinking about that, Dong Shu immediately looked at Xu Shiqiu in admiration: "Hubby is really amazing!" Other than these few simple words, Dong Shu really didn't know how to praise her husband.
Fortunately, Xu Shiqiu understood his own Young Girl's lack of praises. He looked at her with satisfaction, then lowered his head and kissed her lips.
The moment Xu Shiqiu had just finished speaking, Dong Shu hurriedly nodded her head, then quickly said shyly, "Husband, you told mother just now that you want to do business with Yanzhu?" Saying that, Dong Shu looked at Xu Shiqiu embarrassedly.
Seeing his Young Girl like this, Xu Shiqiu knew that it was because she thought that he had eavesdropped on his conversation with his mother that he acted like this.
Looking at her, Xu Shiqiu's eyes were filled with encouragement: "My wife, don't be nervous, I am your husband, you are my wife, we are going to live together for the rest of our lives.
I don't want to hide these things from you, and I won't hide it from you either. I made you sit so close together and listen clearly to my conversation with my mother, also because you are my, Xu Shiqiu's, wife.
So you don't have to feel embarrassed, as if you were eavesdropping on my conversation with my mother. After all, I want to get close to other people. As long as you are by my side, nothing will happen to me. "
Xu Shiqiu didn't feel that anything he said was wrong. He had already determined that his bad luck would be suppressed because of the Young Girl.
When his wife finished speaking, she nodded her head innocently. Xu Shiqiu then continued to laugh: "My wife, I'll be relying on you to keep my family's stores under your name. I'll be relying on you to raise my husband."
Xu Shiqiu said those words intentionally. After hearing his words, Dong Shu's eyes immediately lit up as she looked at him and guaranteed, "Hubby, don't worry. I will work hard to learn it. I will definitely earn you a lot of silver!"
Xu Shiqiu looked at Dong Shu, trying his best to hold back her laughter, so that he would not laugh.
However, his expression betrayed his good mood.
Xu Shiqiu felt that his own Young Girl's opinion was just too cute!
Dong Shu didn't know what Xu Shiqiu was thinking. She thought about what his husband had said just now and also felt that the Cousin would follow his.
Furthermore, she was worried that her brother-in-law's nephew wouldn't be willing to come, even though she believed that her husband was the best!
However, she could not decide for Cousin on this matter. After her month of business was over, she would go back and ask Cousin if he was willing.
