In Youcheng, just one day later, everyone in the city knew about one thing: someone received an amnesty order, but did not use it, but instead used it to repay a favor.

For a while, some people said that the mother and son were stupid. Why repay the favor at this time? Just get out first. If you want to repay the favor, can't you find other ways after you get out?

Some people also said that Bian Duanhun was not a good person. As the saying goes, there is no such thing as a profit. If he had not received any promise in advance, how could he change his mind at the last minute and help the mother and son? He is really a shrewd old fox.

In this way, he really got the amnesty order as he wished, and also earned a huge favor.

Some people analyzed that the Xue family only asked for one piece of the amnesty order, and the child's stepmother did not dare to occupy the token and go out first, but she did not want to let the child leave. In that case, she might never have the chance to become the prince's wife.

Anyway, there are all kinds of rumors. Someone asked in front of Qi Fei's family, "Qi Fei's family contributed manpower and effort to the incident that day, but did not get the token. Do you feel happy?"

The people of Qi family smiled and said, there is only one token, and every family member who gets one can go out, it is of no use.

As for Mu Yingbao, she also found that something was wrong with Brother Hui after that incident. It wasn't very obvious, but he would occasionally look very lost.

That afternoon, Mu Yingbao and he were drying in the yard the hazelnuts and pine nuts they had picked on the mountain not long ago. Seeing that the atmosphere was suitable, he tried to ask the child.

"Are you worried about something? Are you missing your father? Or do you regret not taking the token with you when you left?" Mu Yingbao asked half-jokingly and half-seriously.

Brother Hui threw away a hazelnut with a worm hole, hesitated for a moment and spoke; "Mother, am I really useless? I have practiced martial arts desperately, not only can I not protect you, but I also need others to rescue you. That day, the adults believed in me and gave me a chance. At first, I used the strategies taught by my mother, and they all worked. But when facing Jiang Shoubei's men, I was suddenly at a loss.

If it weren't for Director Rong and his men showing up, my mother might have lost her life because of me, and those who stood on our side probably didn't have a good ending now. "

After Brother Hui finished speaking, he mustered up his courage and looked up.

So that's how it is. Mu Yingbao understood and walked to him, took his hand and led him to sit on a chair next to him.

"My child, you are already very good. At the age of eight, you have the courage to stand up and face it. A tree does not grow up in a day, just like your father. When he first started doing things, it must not have been smooth sailing and successful in everything.

Another example is the food and snacks I made. You said they were delicious, but you know, when I first made them, I didn’t succeed in one try. It took me many attempts to reach the current level.

Look at your uncle, isn't he good at martial arts? He has been in the martial arts world for so many years, isn't he experienced? But, you also saw it that time, didn't he also lose the fight and get seriously injured, and almost lost his life?

This was just a small failure, not a mistake. It was normal for you to be at a loss at the time because you were young and had no practical experience. Your reaction ability and psychological endurance were too immature, and you couldn't remain calm in the face of danger.

You are a smart child, and I think you will have a better future than your unlucky father. Many things require experience accumulation, and you are also growing up slowly every day, every year, and every possible event.

It's not just your height that's growing, but also here, here." Mu Yingbao said, pointing at his chest and head.

"If I were like you, and I backed down and gave in because of this incident, how could you have so many delicious foods now?" Mu Yingbao tried to make it simple and understandable.

"Also, I was the one who taught you Sun Tzu's Art of War and the Thirty-Six Stratagems. But you see, even though I taught you, I don't understand them at all and can't apply them in actual combat. So, tell me, am I more useless than you?" Mu Yingbao once again used herself as an example to comfort the child.

Brother Hui listened very carefully. These days, he had thought about talking to his mother about his troubles. His mother would definitely not laugh at him. He thought that his mother would comfort him and tell him that it was not a bad thing to not achieve great things. He could become a hunter, a teacher, or something like that in the future.

If his father doesn't interfere, he can be a cook, which seems to be fine.

He didn't expect that after listening to his mother's words, his heart suddenly became clear, and the depressed feeling

The feeling disappeared.

Now he is very confident that he can do better than his father in the future.

"Xuan, mother, your son understands. This is what you said before, failure is the mother of success." Brother Hui replied with bright eyes.

Mu Yingbao touched the child's head and said, "Xia, my son is very smart. He is very clever."

"Oh no, that's bad." Brother Hui suddenly frowned and shouted.

Mu Yingbao also wrinkled his nose, and they both stood up and ran to the kitchen.

After digging out two pieces of black charcoal from the stove, the mother and daughter sighed at the same time. They were so busy talking that they forgot about the roasted sweet potatoes and the snack was gone.

"Miss Mu, Brother Hui? You two are busy with Xiao, why don't you come out and take a look? Why is there a burnt smell?" A voice sounded at the gate of the courtyard.

Then, following the source of the burning smell, Luo Yi rushed into the kitchen and saw two people, one big and one small, squatting by the stove. They both glared at him: "You've grown a nose!"

"Why are you making such a fuss? Why don't you go out and shout on the street with a loudspeaker?" Mu Yingbao stood up and attacked.

"That's right, he's still a handsome gentleman." Brother Hui muttered in a low voice.

Even if you look down on me, my seniority is still there.

"No, well, well, look, Old Qi is selling sheep, and I remember you said that grilled lamb skewers are delicious, so I bought two. When are we going to cook them?" Luo Yi realized that he had hurt the face of a certain chef and quickly changed the subject.

"Mom, haven't we already bought that cumin? The grill has been taken from the blacksmith shop several days ago. It's a good time to try it out. If it doesn't work, send it back immediately and ask them to redo it." When Brother Hui heard about lamb skewers, he immediately changed his position.

As expected, birds of a feather flock together. Mu Yingbao looked at the expectant eyes of the two foodies in front of him and didn't know whether to be happy or criticize them. A man should behave like a man and not talk about food all day long as if he had taken stimulants.

Moreover, if you want to eat lamb skewers, do you need to buy two at a time? The temperature is low now, but it is not low enough to keep the lamb for a long time!

"If you want to eat it, just slaughter the sheep quickly. Do you want to eat a whole roasted lamb?" Mu Yingbao said with a clumsy waist.

Really, I need someone to remind me when I want to eat.

“Roasted whole lamb is also OK?”

“Is roasted whole lamb delicious?”

“Roasted whole lamb is also OK?”

“Is roasted whole lamb delicious?”

Mu Yingbao received two responses that made her laugh and cry.

The external threat to Yan State has been temporarily resolved, but the internal troubles still exist. The people in the capital have also sensed something unusual and everyone is panicking.

Mu Yingbao didn't know that because she and Brother Hui were implicated by Xue Wenyu and sent to Youcheng, it was a blessing in disguise...
