Men, listen, grab the top of the mountain and stand in the center position

"Every time I asked you to escape, it was because you didn't need to die for someone else's achievements. The world isn't yours, the Northwest isn't yours. You need to be clear-headed and fulfill your responsibilities within your capabilities. Don't let your passion get the better of you and kill you. You're a good person. I chose you, not just for the engagement, but because you possess every quality in the world that makes my heart flutter: self-discipline and responsibility, outstanding appearance, and a determined and self-disciplined mindset. I personally believe that the man I choose to spend my life with must be a man of excellent character. I'm very lucky; you possess it all."

"And every time you leave, you may not always be able to come back, so I want you to run for your life and always pay attention to the escape route to save your life. I also want you to say goodbye to your family properly every time and leave them with a beautiful last look. Otherwise, I'm afraid you will die with regrets. That's all I have to say."

She has always been direct, offending many people. People flatter the powerful and trample on the weak, and like to kick the can down when they are down. Wangshu really doesn't want to be that can down...

I'm done. A strange silence fell over the two of them. Wangshu had said what he needed to say, but Qin Xiuyuan had so much to say. He wanted to say something he'd never considered before: a woman marrying a man and then marrying him would render her rootless... Remarriage was equivalent to remarrying... Pregnancy was a matter for two people, and if guilty, the punishment was shared... But what he saw was the father of the child, casually walking away with his pants pulled up. He wanted to ask what the rumors about his mother were about...

The courtyard seemed even more bustling with activity, toasts exchanged, tea served instead of wine, and compliments circulated. Relatives from both sides urged my uncle and aunt to marry off their daughter quickly, but my uncle, with a smile on his face, refused each request.

When he first went to the battlefield, he wanted to see his mother and say goodbye in person because he was uneasy and worried about the uncertain future. Unfortunately, his mother refused to see him...

Your life is on the line, so you must act as seriously as if you were going to the battlefield for the first time and face every risk with a vigilant attitude.

But he kept repeating the same thing, making it impossible to stop—she leaned on her hands and rocked lazily on the recliner, as if enjoying the warm sunshine in the cold winter, but her tone was calm and sober:

"...It's because you possess every quality in the world that makes my heart flutter: self-discipline and responsibility, good looks and talent, ambition and self-discipline. I personally feel that the man I choose to spend my life with must be a man of excellent character. I'm so lucky; you possess it all..."

He was filled with energy at the moment. She never flattered, and what she said was what she thought. He was familiar with the inspiring poems from ancient times to the present, but he had never felt the sense of personal security from her few words. Perhaps it was because her words were only about him, praising, appreciating and protecting him, which always made his blood boil and he wished he could practice all the swords, spears and sticks in the training room again!

"Shushu, I want to hug you."

Waiting for a hug.

"Are you sure it's just one moment?" The man was incredulous.

After receiving a positive response, Wangshu climbed up the man's bent neck with both hands, and was held by the waist and hips, and hugged with a little force.

"Hmm!" She couldn't help but groan as she was flattened.

"Turn around?" Someone heard the voice and tried to take advantage of the situation.

"Wait till you get back. We should go out now."

"Wait." Qin Xiuyuan felt his whole body excited.

After the two of them returned to their seats with their normal expressions, the two pairs of siblings at their table ran to their mother's side to gather and chat. Wangshu was very satisfied and occupied the whole table, chatting in private.

"Take Zhang San with you. According to your plan, I want him to take advantage of your prestige and haul some goods to Yunnan to earn some money... You can ride the military horse, give him your horse, and I'll give him the whole cart... Well, add two more wheels and a tarp to protect against the rain... Ah, why not let Tang Bo haul some goods too... Our red dates, cotton, raisins... my Ji family delicacies... they're all good things..."

……

This person had a lot of ideas. Qin Xiuyuan also knew that she was spending money like water and that business was not doing well. He nodded and said, "Well, I will suggest to the general that we escort some caravans as well... What about Tang Bo's horse..."

He looked at her thoughtfully, and then thought of his future father-in-law who was very firm and unhurried in his words and was unwilling to marry his daughter to him.

As expected, the future father-in-law's daughter waved her hand and said, "My dad, now that he has Ji Lao Er, he should work hard and get on duty at the crack of dawn! Exercise your body, otherwise how can you take care of Ji Lao Er day and night in the future..."

Qin Xiuyuan agreed to stay. It turned out that she was the smartest and most far-sighted one!

"Let Ji Shou follow you when you go out. You can take care of the rice and grain at home." He said frankly and intimately: "What you just said is right."

...so handsome, so well-behaved, so considerate, the more I look at him, the more I like him...

"Please bring back some souvenirs!"

He nodded, "Okay. I'll give it to you when I get back." Hearing that my uncle couldn't even come up with a penny...it was really pitiful...

Damn, a fat sheep is delivered to the door, it would be a waste not to kill it, Wangshu’s eyes are shining.

The girl raised her hand sparklingly and happily pulled the arm of the man who lowered his head and looked at her gently. The two of them talked more and more as if no one was around and got closer and closer.

Looking at the affectionate couple not far away, Li Wanting felt a pang of sadness in her eyes...

I used to be that girl who was happy and loved by others...

The yard was so small, naturally everyone saw it. First they said goodbye in the study, and now they were flirting and tugging at the dinner table. The eldest brother was like a father, and the eldest sister-in-law was like a mother. The eldest daughter-in-law of the Ji family had been the housekeeper and the backyard for many years. The uncle's family naturally had no rules, but now his unmarried daughter was openly alone with the male protagonist, and they were flirting in public. This...

"Third sister-in-law, Wangshu's behavior might be inappropriate." It was simply immoral, so she endured it and didn't tell her sister-in-law directly.

Ji's mother looked at the two young people with a smile. Her daughter was chattering, and her future son-in-law was listening carefully, nodding from time to time and uttering a word, which made her daughter very happy and continued to chatter.

People in love have their own little world when they are together. Shushu, who hates other people's nagging the most, is now the nagging one among the two.

"Sister-in-law, it's okay. The two children know their limits."

...Mrs. Ji had nothing to say but to laugh.

Mrs. Li came to smooth things over, "We all went through this when we were young, and we had endless things to talk about. It seems like you really can't refuse to accept your age!"

The second sister-in-law of the Ji family smiled and said, "But it does not include the third brother and his wife. The second brother is still young, and the third brother and his wife dare not grow old."

"I'm old too. When my second child comes, I hope she'll be as well-behaved and easy to take care of as Shushu!"

...well-behaved and easy to take care of...I'm addicted to having daughters...

Everyone was secretly complaining.

Four days later, Yaocheng came to borrow grain for the third time with great fanfare. The military camp had a thousand fully armed elite armored cavalrymen, led by the eldest and third sons, and accompanied by four adjutants, escorting three merchant cavalry teams, a cargo team consisting of a thousand grassland horses, and a logistics and food team. The whole city saw them off.
