got Xu Ze's promise, and the big stone in Xu Hui's heart finally fell. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
She is a very self-aware person, and she has gone through many ups and downs, so she naturally knows what is proportionate and how to grasp the degree.
Some people may say that they are all flesh and blood of the family, so why pay attention to proportion, wouldn't it be a share? In the Shangdang Xu family, where the family is relatively harmonious, not to mention that Xu Pan has this view, even Xu Yun and Xu Heng - especially Xu Heng, who is favored and cultivated as an heir when he was a child, even if he doesn't say it, he thinks like this in his heart, and his words and deeds naturally have a little unconscious arrogance. Only Xu Hui, no matter how many privileges he enjoys, can carefully grasp the proportions and not exceed the real bottom line in Xu Ze's heart that she gradually tried out. Even if people who are dissatisfied with her meddling in government affairs again and again, they will have the idea that "the girl is also very good, and the contact with her is very comfortable, not to mention that her ability and means are not weak, and it is nothing to obey one or two, and it is not a loss of face", Xu Ze, who often gets along with her, how can he not value her more and more?
Xu Hui, who has been in a big family like the Xie family in Chenjun, naturally understands that even if it is a real blood relative, when it comes to things related to "power", as long as one of them has a little heart, or is provoked by others, it is easy to gradually become suspicious, and if it is not reversed, the contradiction will only expand and become bigger. Because of this, many arrogant people think that they have friends all over the world, only to find out at some point that the people they consider friends are actually extremely dissatisfied with him. At a critical time, it is not uncommon to fall into a well and give him a backhand knife.
These things need to be realized by themselves, even if they see that their brother's attitude is slightly inappropriate, Xu Hui is not easy to remind, so as not to give birth to the idea that she is sowing discord, no matter how hidden she is. After all, this kind of mentality, which has been cultivated over time and subtly cultivated, changes abruptly and abruptly, and it is too easy to make people suspicious.
The worry only surfaced for a moment, and it was thrown out of Xu Hui's mind.
What is she thinking! In any case, they are a family at the bottom, even if the elder brother has overstepped in some things, and the grandfather is worried, it is just that the elder brother is too immature and does not know how to grasp the proportions, not like the patriarchs of other families, especially the old emperor who has died, he has never stopped being suspicious of his adult children and grandchildren. If this is the case, what is the meaning of living a person's life?
Crossing two hills, through a densely wooded path that almost shaded the sun, the place where a slightly stronger person could only accommodate two people in parallel suddenly opened up to the cold mountain wall, and the meandering stream formed a pool of cold and clear water in the low recess, and slowly flowed down from the other end, moistening the vast land in front of him.
No one could have imagined that in the midst of the mountains and rocky mountains, where even the most seasoned hunter would not dare to approach them, there should be such a fertile land, even if it was less than five miles in size, it was ecstatic.
"This place used to be a dense forest." Pointing to the shadowy buildings in the distance, Xu Ze said with emotion, "It has been the secret reclamation and hard work of several generations that the former woods have become the pastures of today. Even compared with the vast prairie, this small place is nothing, and even the pasture grass that has been planted, transplanted, and cultivated with great difficulty is far inferior to the pasture of the real horse pasture, but we have done our best. ā
Hearing the words "several generations", Xu Hui's heart moved, and she looked at Xu Ze suspiciously, and saw Xu Ze nodding lightly, she understood when she saw this, and she didn't ask any more.
The ancestors of the Shangdang Xu family and the brothers next to them were forced to live by the family, so they had to settle down and do business. When the world is chaotic, they will be bandits, as ringing horses, and specialize in plundering the finances, cattle and even horses of large refugees, after all, at this time, others are too busy to take care of themselves, how can they have time to come to them? If the world is more stable, and the family wants to take the thieves as a political achievement, these clever horse thieves will no longer "work", but will take the looted and difficult to get rid of the property, open up the relationship, and do everything possible to go to the grassland to exchange furs and horses.
Over the past ten years, most of the horse thieves led by the ancestors of the Xu family, most of the two hundred brothers have their own horses - even if they are not very strong, some of them are still mild bantams, which does not prevent them from gradually becoming proficient in riding and archery. Until today, Xu Hui knew that the ancestors were able to survive thanks to this hidden feng shui treasure, and I don't know how they found this place back then.
The family surnamed Bei next to them, on the one hand, enjoys the status that their ancestors exchanged for their lives, and on the other hand, they despise the coldness of their ancestors and are ashamed to say it, but Xu Ze does not. When he became famous, I don't know how many times he was scolded "after the horse thief", but he frankly admitted that he didn't say it, and taught his children and grandchildren not to forget their roots, and to find a way to help when they met the descendants of their father's former brothers. Because of this, many ancestors and the ancestors of the Xu family were horse thieves, but now they are still from the Han clan, and even people who are too down-and-out to do it are very willing to get close to Xu Ze.
I heard that they were coming, and someone had already come out of the pasture. As soon as he saw him, Xu Ze laughed loudly, and said heartily and with concern: "Brother, I haven't seen you for more than a month, and you look a lot thinner!" ā
The person who came smiled hehe, squeezed out a few deep wrinkles on his face, and looked much older than the pampered Xu Ze. But his smile was bright and sincere: "Brother cares more, brother, I look thin, but in fact I am very strong, and it is absolutely no problem to finish three bowls of tea in one go!" ā
The person in charge of this secret ranch and cavalry camp is one of the few captains of the Shangdang Xu clan, surnamed Zhao Minghai.
He has no relationship with Xu Ze, but he can justifiably call Xu Ze a brother - more than 20 years ago, Xu Ze led the crowd to resist the Hu people, due to a mistake in judgment, the army led by him was almost wiped out, if it were not for a pair of farmers who kindly took him in, hid him in a small cellar where water was stored and stored food, let the youngest son take care of Xu Ze, and went out to find herbs for him, and treated him hastily, even if Xu Ze died a lot, he would not survive.
I have to say that the couple's cellar was dug very hidden, and the injured Xu Ze was also well hidden, and no one found out, so naturally no one would tell him. But the brutal Hu people, will they care about human nature? After they roughly determined where Xu Ze was, they slaughtered the area and set it on fire, and then left satisfied. When Xu Ze's injuries were a little healed, and when he and the young son of the farmer and his wife crawled out of the cellar, there was endless blood and tears as far as the eye could see, beyond the scorched earth and the corpses that had been burned to the point of being burned to the point of being eaten by vicious dogs and riddled with flies.
"If before, my hatred for the Hu people was nothing more than hatred for the 'invaders', as well as some ...... What you don't understand and don't understand is an instinctive revulsion. At that moment, I finally understood why so many people would tear their eyes when they said the word 'Hu Ren', and even their voices were no longer calm, and even the self-proclaimed calm as I still can't forget that scene. When talking about his righteous brother Zhao Hai, Xu Ze said this very calmly, then looked at Xu Hui and said solemnly, "They deserve to die." ā
Yes, barbaric, unreasonable, and unable to bring any happiness to the people of China except for destruction, grief and wailing, they deserve to die.
How about the same people, and how about the same enthusiasm of the lower classes? We live here, in this fertile and rich Central Plains that has nurtured us, and if we covet its existence, we are the undisputed enemy!
After Xu Ze and Zhao Hai finished greeting, Xu Hui saluted and said respectfully: "Xu Hui has seen Lord Zhao." ā
When Zhao Hai heard this, he waved his hand again and again, and bluntly refused: "I can't do it, I can't do it...... Brother brought Hui'er here this time, but what's the matter? ā
Xu Ze smiled, and when Zhao Hai saw this, he slapped his head suddenly: "Look at my confused appearance, I have forgotten the rules, brother, please come here, let's talk." ā
The location of the ranch is absolutely hidden, and it is located in the deep mountains and old forests, and there are not too many fortifications, it is a group of old houses left by the ancestors, and some training grounds have been expanded. Sitting on the chair that was polished and rough-made, and gradually became smooth due to being used for many years, Xu Ze pondered for a moment, and said: "Hui'er will go to the front line as the coach, I want to transfer some people from you, who do you think is good?" ā
Hearing that Xu Hui was the commander-in-chief, Zhao Hai was so surprised that his mouth grew up, and he couldn't close it for a long time, and after a long time, he stammered: "Hui, Hui'er?" I...... Did I hear me wrong? ā
"That's right, it's Hui'er." Xu Ze bowed his head lightly, "You have been here for many years, and you should have seen a lot of loyal and honest children, let's say a few names first, and then let Hui'er pick them!" ā
Zhao Hai knew that he was an honest farmer who didn't know anything except farming. Xu Ze thanked his parents for saving his life and made him a captain, saying that he was in charge of such a hidden place, but in fact, he was asked to do nothing, just to occupy this good position and not let anyone from any faction get it. As for him, after getting Xu Ze's instructions, he obediently made a clay sculpture wooden tire, and lived a life with his daughter-in-law, without worrying about food and clothing, even if he heard others half praise and half sarcastically call him "mud bodhisattva", he also responded happily. Therefore, no matter how surprised he was at the moment, after Zhao Hai came back to his senses, he nodded again and again: "Okay, okay, I'll call someone right away!" (To be continued.) )
