I just want to rob you of your luck
Chapter 167: Plundering the Evil Wife's Luck 08
When General He turned around, he saw a bright and beautiful girl standing beside him and smiling at him. He felt as if he saw his most beloved daughter and his expression was very excited.
"Lan'er, are you back?"
Qian said quickly: "Father, this is Jiuer, your granddaughter, Laner's daughter."
General He's dim eyes gradually became clearer, and he was still very excited: "Jiu'er is here? Great!"
Lin Jiuer clearly saw a hint of disappointment and nostalgia in his eyes.
But he was also very happy to see Lin Jiuer. After all, she was his daughter's only blood relative and they hadn't seen each other for several years.
Lin Jiuer didn't want to cry, but when she saw the old man, her eyes couldn't help but turn red. In the original owner's memory, he was a heroic and majestic general.
But now he has lost his beloved daughter, and the He family army that he had trained for many years has also been handed over.
The emperor said that he would give my uncle half of the military power, but in fact he also arranged a general to be his immediate superior.
General He fought for his country all his life, but in the end he was suspected by the emperor. How could he not be disheartened?
Looking at his graying temples and thin body, Lin Jiuer felt a little sad.
In his previous life, he died on the road to exile due to his rapid physical deterioration caused by these blows.
She adjusted her mood, walked over and took her grandfather's arm affectionately.
"Grandpa, I also want to see my cousins practice martial arts. Oh, and I brought two guards with good martial arts skills. How about letting them spar with my cousins?"
Speaking of duels, General He also perked up, laughed heartily a few times, and said lovingly, "Okay, I want to see who is more powerful, your guard or your cousin?"
Lin Jiuer turned around and playfully said to Ruofeng and Nangong Yi, "You guys will go up and compete with my cousin later. The winner will get a reward."
Ruofeng originally came from the general's mansion, and his elder brother worked under General He.
He was very happy to return to the general's mansion, as if he was back to his childhood when he was practicing martial arts here with his brother.
He quickly smiled and said, "Yes, Miss."
Nangong Yi frowned, he didn't want to expose his martial arts skills, he just said before that he knew some punches and kicks.
Lin Jiuer quietly approached him and whispered, "If you can win, how about I give you a village?"
At this time in the previous life, Lin Ruoshui gave the dowry farm of Lin Jiuer's mother to Nangong Yi, helping him out of his urgent need.
This time it’s not her turn to offer warmth.
Nangong Yi was stunned, his eyes lit up, then he bit his thin lips and nodded at Lin Jiuer as if he had made up his mind.
"Cousin Jiuer is here? She has really grown into a big girl now."
Lin Jiuer turned around and saw two tall and handsome men standing there smiling at her.
These are my uncle’s two sons. The eldest cousin is called He Yu, and he is now serving in the camp outside Beijing. He has reached the age of coming of age, and this year he got engaged to the daughter of a fifth-rank official.
My second cousin is called He Ning. He is sixteen years old this year. He has chosen to take the imperial examination and will probably pursue a career in literature in the future.
However, both of them have been practicing martial arts since childhood and are quite good at it.
Lin Jiuer bowed with a smile: "Hello, two cousins."
There is no young lady in the general's mansion, so Lin Jiuer's mother is very favored, and now her favor extends to Lin Jiuer.
The original owner actually ignored such good relatives and listened to his scumbag father and distanced herself from them. Lin Jiuer even felt that the original owner's death was a bit of her own fault.
"Sister Jiuer, do you like horse riding? I'll take you horse riding later, okay?"
The one who was speaking was the second cousin. He was delighted to see a pretty cousin and wanted to get closer to her.
Just as Lin Jiuer was about to agree, she heard Nangong Yi interrupt her: "Miss, shall the competition start now?"
Lin Jiuer looked at her grandfather and said, "Grandpa, shall we start the competition now? It will be one-on-one, and we will stop when we are done."
Qian ordered the servants to bring three chairs and a small table.
Some tea and snacks were served.
After the three of them sat down, General He said, "Okay, let's do as Jiuer said. You choose your opponents and I'll start the fight."
Nangong Yi walked directly in front of his second cousin He Ning, and Ruofeng stood in front of He Yu.
He Ning always felt that this guard seemed unfriendly to him, but he didn't think much about it.
After all, He Yu was serving in the military camp and was now a captain of a thousand men with great martial arts skills. Ruo Feng was slightly inferior to him and was defeated.
However, the two of them fought very happily, and Ruofeng was not discouraged. He secretly made up his mind to practice martial arts hard and not embarrass the young lady.
On the other side, Nangong Yi actually defeated He Ning after just ten moves.
This made everyone present marvel. Although He Ning was younger, he had also practiced martial arts since he was a child. Few ordinary guards could beat him.
His cousin was here today, and he felt a little embarrassed. His face turned red and he felt a little unconvinced.
"I want to compete again, but I wasn't ready just now."
"Second brother, if you are not as skilled as others, just work harder to practice."
"That's right, Ning'er. You are still young, and you were distracted by the exam and neglected practice. It's normal for you to fail."
He Ning nodded, knowing that he had lost his manners, and his grandfather was giving him a way out.
Nangong Yi nodded secretly in his heart. He was indeed a famous old general who was upright and could see the big picture from the small details. The He family had a good family tradition.
He Yu and General He did see something, this guard's martial arts skills were indeed quite strong.
He Yu had some respect for Nangong Yi and patted him on the shoulder: "You're a good boy, what's your name?"
"Shen Yi."
"Are you willing to join the army? With your kung fu, you will surely make a name for yourself on the battlefield in the future. I can introduce you to someone else."
"Thank you for your kindness, Master. I just want to stay with the young lady and keep her safe."
Lin Jiuer was a little surprised that he would say that. In fact, joining the military camp would be a good choice for him. After all, if he wanted to force a palace, it would be helpful to win over more military generals.
He Yu felt it was a bit of a pity, but his cousin really needed some powerful guards to protect her, so he didn't force it.
Lin Jiuer blinked her big eyes at Nangong Yi and gave him a thumbs up, as if praising him.
When he thought that there would soon be a farm where he could settle the old members of the Shen family, he felt much better, and a slight smile appeared in his narrow eyes.
Qian looked at Nangong Yi with some confusion: "This child's eyebrows and eyes feel a little familiar."
Lin Jiuer was startled. Could it be that her aunt had seen Nangong Yi before? She smiled and said, "My guard family is not in Shengjing. My aunt must have recognized the wrong person."
Qian also smiled and said, "Yes, I just think his smile is a little familiar. Maybe he is similar to someone I know, but there are thousands of people who look alike, so there may not be any connection."
Nangong Yi's clenched hands finally loosened. He did not remember knowing anyone in the general's mansion, and he was still young when he left the palace, and his appearance was very different from now. He thought it was impossible for anyone to know him.
Qian stood up and said, "Lunch is ready. Those of you who are competing in the martial arts competition should go take a shower and change your clothes first, and come over to eat later."
As he said that, he called General He and Lin Jiuer to go to the dining room first.
Now the general's mansion is managed by Qian's housekeeper. In the dining room, Lin Jiuer asked while waiting for others: "Aunt, I have something else to ask you this time."
Qian asked curiously, "What's the matter?"
"Madame Mei said that the General's Mansion also has a copy of my mother's dowry list?"
