CHAPTER XLII

When Xu Hui put on light armor, put on a helmet, don't take a bow and crossbow, and came to Liang's team with Liang Dou with the sixty parts and all the female dead soldiers. At first glance, the www.biquge.info did not clearly observe the fighting power of the Liang clan, but moved his gaze to the hounds that were led by a group of people dressed in coarse linen, with strong limbs and black fur, which was as tall as an adult's waist.

In his previous life, after Xu Hui married into the Xie clan of Chenjun, he participated in many hunts organized by the family and saw this kind of vicious dog that was specially trained. So she knew that this pure carnivore that dared to fight with wolves had a ferocious character, and if their owners did not control them, they would violently tear apart all living creatures that stood in front of them.

Thinking of this, Xu Hui looked at Liang Dou and pretended to be puzzled and said, "Uncle Ji Nan, this ......"

"The outcasts are cunning, and when the attack on your team fails, they retreat into the mountains, and if you want to force them out, you need these treasures." Liang Dou looked at the pure black hound with shiny oil and grinning teeth with satisfaction, and asked casually, "What does my niece think is inappropriate?" ”

Xu Hui knew that he was testing himself, and planned to observe his words and deeds to figure out Xu Zeping's thoughts, so he made a casual appearance, smiled disappreciatively, and said to Liang Dou very sincerely: "My niece heard that it costs a lot to raise such a powerful hunting dog. Those homeless people dared to attack my Xu clan's convoy for less than a hundred stone of food, and it would be a pity if these hounds were caught by the hungry homeless people and folded on such a trivial matter. ”

Xu Ze was still simple, and he was not very tolerant of his children and grandchildren in terms of money, and did not allow his children and grandchildren to be extravagant and wasteful, which was well-known in the entire family circle. Countless people in Yingchuan County are jealous of Xu Heng's talent, and no child of a family will say that the material of his clothes is not the best, so as not to leave others with the impression of "ignorance". Hearing Xu Hui say this, Liang Dou had no doubts, but said lightly: "These little guys only eat six or seven catties of pigs and sheep a day, supplemented by all kinds of miscellaneous materials, goat milk and water, if you really want to count, it's not too expensive." If my niece likes it, how about I give you a few? ”

Xu Hui was reluctant in his heart, but on the surface he deliberately made a happy appearance, and then lowered his face again, and said a little sullenly: "Grandfather doesn't like to raise these hunting dogs that cost a lot of money, after all, we don't hunt much, and it's useless to raise hunting dogs." My father has long complained about my love of riding and archery more than my brother, and if my grandfather disagrees, my father will also ...... Even if you bring it back, you will not be allowed to raise it, thank you Uncle Ji Nan for your kindness, but my niece ...... Nieces can't have it. ”

Xu Ze...... Don't like hounds? Don't hunt?

Daqi went up to the royal family and down to the Hanmen, and they all had an unusual enthusiasm for hunting, and some people even imitated the etiquette of the Xia Dynasty, feeling that not hunting three times a year was disrespectful to their ancestors. Although after the royal family and many families crossed to the south, the south of the Yangtze River became more and more heavy on literature and light on military force, and regarded the generals from poor families as lowly people, but the customs of hunting did not change in the slightest. In order to resist the invasion of the Hu people, the Northland regards hunting as extremely important, in a sense, in the Northland, they don't like hunting, and they almost don't pay attention to martial arts.

Xu Ze, as the general of Bingzhou Assassin Shi Jiaanbei, even though many forces in Bingzhou are divided, as long as the Great Qi Imperial Court still exists, and the overall planning and dispatch of military affairs and state and county soldiers will mostly go through Xu Ze's hands. Such a person who entered the family circle with talent and learning, but consolidated his position with military merits, strictly speaking, he is a military general, but he doesn't like to raise hunting dogs?

Hearing Xu Hui's words, Liang Dou's first reaction was that he was deceived by Xu Hui, but as Xu Hui thought, he was a very conceited and controlling person. Such men look down on people whose status is inferior to themselves in their hearts, and even more look down on women, thinking that they should be playthings, pleasing men, tactful, and pleasing to the eye. Thinking that Xu Ze didn't seem to have hunted anything over the years, but often gathered with Confucianism, celebrities, monks and Taoists, he couldn't help muttering in his heart, thinking that Xu Ze was really like many family members in the south, disgusted with martial arts and learned from literature? If this is the case, if something really happens, the force of the Shangdang Xu clan is not to be feared.

For such a major matter, Liang Dou didn't dare to make a hasty judgment based on a little girl's words, out of cautious consideration, he laughed loudly, extremely gently, and said to Xu Hui with a hint of concern: "You are a girl, in the end you want to get married, Brother Zihou doesn't want you to ride a horse to hunt, so it is normal to save yourself from being taken by someone in the future." ”

Xu Hui lowered his head and muttered in a low voice: "Little uncle didn't say that, grandfather didn't stop it, it's obviously a father and a brother......" Probably thinking that he couldn't criticize the elders in front of outsiders, Xu Hui stopped talking, but it caused Liang Dou's mind to turn around a thousand times.

Her little uncle? Xu Ze's third son-in-law, who is impulsive and reckless, has a reputation for not liking to read, and likes to ride and shoot? It would not be unusual for that scheming guy to instill ideas into his niece because he liked it and didn't care about his brother's mood. I heard that Xu Heng, who is studying in Yingchuan, has mediocre results in the "Archery" among the six arts, not very skilled, not like the four next to him, and can dominate the front. It seems that the Xu family is bent on breaking into the circle of the surname Wu and the surname Qiao, and learn from them to emphasize literature and ignore martial arts, so as to make the official road more prosperous!

If the world has always been peaceful, such subtle practices will naturally not be wrong at all. Now that the saint is in good health, Liang Dou can't imagine the earth-shattering changes five years later, even if he still has some doubts, he has already believed most of them in his heart. Xu Hui looked at Liang Dou's face without a trace, and saw that his expression was calm, without revealing the slightest ripple, and he couldn't see his mood at all, so he couldn't help but be a little disappointed, but he took it for granted.

In the end, it is a person who is more than ten years older than her, has been the captain of Hanoi for seven or eight years, and is in charge of the army of a county, if it is so simple and she sees through it, it is not enough to be regarded by her grandfather as one of the difficulties, and what if you can't see Liang Dou's thoughts? What she wants to do now is to appear as a favored and slightly arrogant, somewhat intelligent but unworldly noblewoman, and try to create a situation in every link where the Xu family of the party is fully inclined to the style of writing and does not attach so much importance to force. Don't ask Liang Dou to believe it completely, even if he a thorn in his heart, it is enough.
