C72 Departure the day after tomorrow

Surprise flashed across Cheng Yan's eyes. She had thought that Xu Hui would want to keep her distance from him after hearing that she was a widow, but didn't expect her reaction to be so dull. Cheng Yan looked at Xu Hui suspiciously, "What do you want to buy?"

Xu Hui placed the spices in her hand on the table. "Call each of these ten grams."

Cheng Yan looked at the thing that Xu Hui wanted and could not help but frown. "Just these two things alone are not enough to produce incense, what are you going to buy them for?"

"Naturally, it's to make friends by buying incense." Xu Hui did not mind at all and told him her purpose. Cheng Yan pursed her lips: "Are you from that house that you moved in this morning? Just north of town. "

Xu Hui nodded, "Yes." "Why aren't you afraid of me?" Cheng Yan asked again. Xu Hui smiled. Why not? She was only a widow, and only in an era with pedantic ideas would people reject him as someone with an unknown identity. However, she herself was not one of them, so if she really wanted to say something about herself, she should be the one feared.

Xu Hui shook her head: "Life and death are decided by fate, wealth are in the sky. However, I am a person who only believes in my own fate and not my own, so I have never been afraid of such things. "

Hearing Xu Hui's words, Cheng Yan said, "If that's the case, then I'll make this friend of yours. If you need anything from me in the future, just come to my shop. As for the rest, slowly understand."

Xu Hui smiled and nodded, she wanted to extend her hand to give the money to buy the spice to Cheng Yan, but Cheng Yan did not accept it.

Since Cheng Yan had already said this much, Xu Hui naturally did not force him. She only thought to give one to Cheng Yan the next time she weaved something.

Niuniu pouted. "Waiting for sister-in-law at home." Seeing Niuniu's obedient look, Xu Hui thought that since he did not have the ability to let her go to school, he could teach her how to write normally since he had nothing to do at home.

Thinking of this, Xu Hui squatted down and looked at Niuniu. "Niuniu is very obedient today, but we need to learn how to write."

Niuniu did not want to write, but after Xu Hui told her about the benefits of learning calligraphy, she agreed. Thinking about it, Xiao Da Yong was a hardworking person. If it wasn't for the fact that the Xiao family didn't have the ability to support him in his studies, he might be considered a scholar now and might even be able to serve his country in the imperial court.

The entire afternoon Xu Hui taught Niu Niu how to write before she started to set up the house. Although there wasn't much she needed to do herself, she still needed to clean up the most basic hygiene. Xiao Dazong only needed a few days to go to the border, so he had to at least let him feel at ease.

Xiao Da Yong returned just as the sun was about to set. Xu Hui looked at Xiao Da Yong's joyful face and knew that something good had happened today. He walked up and greeted him, "You look very happy, don't you? What's the matter? "

"The Camp said that there will be a battle to fight in the border trials this time. If we win, we will all have to be promoted according to merit, and the capable ones will still be able to become generals!"

Xu Hui was naturally happy to see Xiao Dazong being so enthusiastic. Since Xiao Dazong knew about this, he must have known when they were going to the Frontier Trial. Xu Hui asked Xiao Dazong, and she herself also took the money to help him prepare.

Xiao Dazong had told Xu Hui that the time she was leaving would be the day after tomorrow. Xu Hui had thought that it would be another two days, but when she heard this she was surprised. It hasn't been long since the news arrived, right? "

Xiao Da Yong looked a bit embarrassed: "I don't know either, this is what the higher ups meant." I heard that it's currently a riot over there and it's just the right time to send people there, so it's best for us to go earlier. "

Xu Hui sighed: "Life over there should be better than before right? After all, if I let you soldiers who have won the war to go to a place that is not too peaceful, I should take care of you. "

Xiao Da Yong could not suppress the smile on his face when he heard Xu Hui's words. It was only when Xu Hui had finished that Xiao Da Yong spoke proudly, "The higher ups have already said it directly. We can just directly ask for supplies at the border. The spoils from killing the barbarian can also be freely distributed. If there's anything good, I'll definitely bring it back for you, my wife. "

Xu Hui did not know what to say, but she was not happy at all. Even when she heard from Xiao Dazong that the treatment there was very good, but it was easy for him to lose her life if she was not careful.

Even if he had died on the battlefield, the pension that he had left behind was enough for him to live the rest of his life, not to mention the fact that he was already a bloodthirsty man. The more scared he was, the less chance he would have to live.

"Don't worry, we still have things to do. I will definitely return safely. "Besides, there's still one more day to go. Rather than thinking about those useless things here, you might as well be my wife and let me have a safe journey," Xiao Dazong comforted Xu Hui, but the more he said, the more he felt that something was amiss.

Xu Hui pretended to be angry and hit Xiao Dayong, "Where are we going? Why don't you know how to say something nice? "

Xiao Da Yong chuckled as he scratched his head, looking extremely foolish. Xu Hui sighed helplessly, and thought about looking for Cheng Yan tomorrow. He also wanted to ask if there was any incense he could smell that would make him excited.

When Niuniu came out of the room, she saw Xu Hui and Xiao Dazong standing there talking. She ran over and handed the paper to Xu Hui. "Look, sister-in-law. I wrote this today."

Xu Hui took it and took a closer look. Although it was not particularly beautiful, it was still considered neat and tidy. Not to mention that Niuniu's foundation was not good. In short, no matter how Xu Hui looked at her, she looked good.

Xu Hui patted Niu Niu's head and praised her generously, "How is it so great? "Your brother will be leaving in two days. Can you help sister-in-law write a word for your brother?"
