Chapter 156
Heiya, ah no, let's call it Xiangning in the future.
She felt that Xiaoshan was a little strange these days.
She couldn't say how strange it was, but it just felt that something was wrong.
"Brother, what's wrong with you these days?" Xiangning finally couldn't help it, and asked directly when there was no one in the room.
Xiaoshan glanced up at the eldest sister, and said half-loudly, "Is it obvious?" ”
Xiangning tilted her head and thought for a moment, "It's not obvious, but I know you have something on your mind." ”
There is basically no secret between Xiaoshan and Xiangning, but he can't tell his eldest sister about this matter, so he feels a little guilty.
"I'm just thinking about something, I'll be fine in a few days." Xiaoshan said with a faint smile.
"Huh? Nothing has happened lately. Xiang Ning walked to the table, leaned over with a teasing face, and whispered in Xiaoshan's ear, "Brother, which girl are you thinking about?" ”
The exhaled heat had a sweet floral scent, which tickled Xiaoshan's ears.
He leaned back a little uncomfortably, and coughed dryly, "I'm thinking about what kind of in-laws I will find for you in the future." ”
The eldest sister is like this, and ordinary people can't help it.
"You're blushing, hahaha." Xiangning pointed to Xiaoshan and laughed, "I must have said it." “
After speaking, he ran to the door and turned around and grimaced, "I'll go tell our mother that it's time to say kiss to you." ”
Seeing the figure of the eldest sister disappearing at the door, Xiaoshan shook his head with a wry smile helplessly, he was not worried about the eldest sister's nonsense, but just to tease him.
It would be nice if all of them could live in the valley without worries all the time.
The next day, Xiaoshan found Liu's father.
Seeing the expression on his face, Dad Liu already knew his decision, and sighed in his heart, "Have you really thought about it?" ”
Xiaoshan sat on the small table next to Daddy Liu's wheelchair, holding Daddy Liu's legs, and resting his head on his lap.
"Dad, I thought about it for days, if they failed, I couldn't live like I didn't know anything.
If they succeed, I won't be able to enjoy that kind of wealth with peace of mind."
Father Liu gently stroked Xiaoshan's hair, since a few years ago, when he carried the burden of the family with his weak body, he had never been so close to him.
When I think of this, I can't help but feel sad.
Knowing that today, he would definitely cultivate Xiaoshan well, at least in the bloody wind and rain in the future, he would have some means of self-preservation.
"Go if you want, Dad understands you, but no matter what success or failure, you must come back alive."
Daddy Liu's voice was a little hoarse, suppressing the regret and helplessness in his heart.
"Don't tell my mother and younger siblings, don't want them to worry, just say that I went to study with a teacher." Xiaoshan also felt uncomfortable and said sullenly.
Father Liu didn't speak, but the big hand on the hill tightened, and it took a long time to answer in a low voice.
Now that he had made a decision, Xiaoshan didn't plan to drag the mud and water anymore, and quickly packed his simple luggage and prepared to leave early the day after tomorrow.
"Brother, why did you leave so suddenly," Xiang Ning looked straight into Xiaoshan's eyes, "This is what you were thinking about the other day?" ”
She vaguely felt in her heart that things were not so simple, why didn't she let her second cousin go with her to study?
But Xiaoshan obviously didn't want to say, and she didn't want to ask.
"Well, our father said that in two years at most, the situation outside will definitely be stable, and there will be a scientific examination at that time, so I have to prepare in advance." Xiaoshan rubbed the eldest sister's hair greasyly, "After I leave, the family will be handed over to you." ”
Xiang Ning glanced at him deeply, "If there is anything, find Yi Ergou and them, and they will listen to your arrangement." ”
Now the organization has grown to eighteen strongholds, about 500 people, and at critical times, it can still be used.
Seeing Xiaoshan nodding, Xiang Ning let go of the hand holding the burden, untied the belt, and tied it to Xiaoshan.
"There are 300,000 taels of silver tickets in this, if the dynasty is really changed, I don't know if I can use it, if there is a chance, I will spend it."
Xiaoshan let the eldest sister tie the belt around his waist, and the soft little hands were fragrant and cotton, and tied the belt in a knot around his waist.
After finishing Xiangning, she returned to the house and took out a bunch of bottles and cans, all with names written on the outside.
"You have these medicines with you, maybe they will be useful at any time."
took out a string of handpieces from his arms, "This is a handicraft made of life-saving pills, which can be used at critical moments." ”
The life-saving pill Xiaoshan knew, and Xu Zengqiang wrote a letter two months ago, saying that the pill he got from the Taoist priest had saved the general's life.
This is because they are afraid that the letters in the army will be reviewed, so they wrote it for the sake of secrecy, and Xiangning and Xiaoshan knew it in their hearts.
What he really meant was that the incense pill was a good thing, and it should not be taken out lightly.
After reading the letter, Heiya made this medicine bead bracelet, but she didn't expect to use it so quickly.
"Got it, I'm just going, what's the need for this." Xiaoshan knew that the eldest sister didn't believe it, but she still had to say it.
"Brother, you come back early." Xiangning reluctantly sent Xiaoshan out of the door, outside Xiaoya hugged Xiaoshan and cried, although Xiaohe didn't know what happened, but also knew that the eldest brother was leaving, and Xiaoya hugged Xiaoshan one by one, crying and saying, "Brother is not leaving." “
She leaned against the door frame, stunned as she watched Xiaoshan squat down and coax this and that, with a faint sense of amazement in her heart.
She has been here for almost a year, and it is this half-grown child who stumbles and props up this family with her, no matter what she wants to do, Xiaoshan will support her unconditionally, and sometimes he messes around, he just stares a few times, and is never willing to say.
Now that they are going to separate, although they don't know what he's going to do, he doesn't say it, there must be a reason for him.
"Brother, I'm here waiting for you to come back." Xiangning thought silently in her heart.
No matter how much reluctance there is, Xiaoshan is still gone.
Xiangning had to take over all kinds of things from the organization, learning medical skills while also giving lessons to other children in the valley.
When I have time, I prepare prescriptions and dry some of the various herbs that have been picked from outside the valley.
Life is very fulfilling.
However, Dad Liu seems to be busier, and he is a little more strict with the students who choose the martial arts, and it seems that he can't wait to train everyone to become talents at once.
Xiangning only knew that her father was definitely not simple before, but she never asked seriously.
But from what her father knew, it should have been a secret agent or the head of some mysterious organization or something.
Thinking of Dad Liu's retirement for more than ten years, the recent changes only started after he left Xiaoshan, combined with the news of King Rui some time ago.
A bold idea came to her mind.
Her father used to be the King of Rui or the Crown Prince.
In this way, her father's retreat to the mountain village for more than ten years is easy to explain.
And what about the hills? Why did her father let Xiaoshan out of the valley?
Definitely didn't go to study with a teacher, could it be that her father let her brother continue to work for King Rui?
Thinking of this, Xiang Ning had an urge to rush over and ask for clarification.
But he held back again.
Dad Liu is not the kind of person who is greedy for wealth and does not care about flesh and blood, and he should not be a particularly stupid and loyal person.
There should be something else she doesn't know.
What is it exactly? To be continued.
