On the other side, Xiao Moke's family was also discussing carefully in the post house courtyard.

"Father, how can you accept this Xiao Shilang as a righteous son so easily? The three of them are all from the Qi country, and their origin is unknown, and we don't know their details. Xiao Shilian didn't know if it was out of jealousy or what, anyway, he just didn't like Xiao Yao.

"Hmph, brother, are you jealous of Shiro? Daddy, I think this Shiro is oily and smooth, but he is quick-witted, he can create amazing weapons at a young age, and he is also clever, this domineering Julong Gang was eliminated by him in a few moments, if he can assist Daddy, it is the best! "Xiao Wuhua has been captured by Xiao Yao, of course I have to help him speak.

"When have I been jealous of him, just a little opportunistic trader! I'm afraid it's your little sister, you're hooked on this little slippery head. Xiao Shilian was pointed at the sore spot by Xiao Wuhua and quickly denied it.

"Hmph, you're just jealous that Shiro is smarter than you, and Daddy values him more than you." Xiao Wuhua argued with a red face.

"Haha, I really took a fancy to Shiro's supreme intelligence and proposed to accept him as his adopted son." Xiao Moke looked at his children arguing, and said with a smile, "Now the world is in chaos, countries are strife, and the handsome talent is the most important, although this Shiro is only 14 years old, he has already shown amazing combat talent, if he is carefully trained, he will definitely be a fierce general in the future!" ”

Xiao Wuhua's eyes lit up when he saw Xiao Moke praising Xiao Yao so much, and he glanced at Xiao Shilian who was speechless provocatively with a victorious eye.

"I heard that the Qi country is now in chaos and the political situation is unstable, I was ordered to return to Beijing this time, it should also be related to the war in the Qi country, you have all seen the power of Shiro's scheme, and the musket that kills people invisibly, if he follows me, it will also be of great help to me." Xiao Moke continued.

"Then there is no need to be so grand, our Xiao family is a famous family in the Chen Kingdom, and we accept a wanderer of unknown origin as a righteous son, we look up to them too much! Accepting the three of them as disciples can also serve our Xiao family! Xiao Shilian was still indignant.

"Brother, you are wrong, Shiro just told me, he is very happy that his father values him so much, and he is willing to worship his father as his father-in-law, but his master is a person who likes freedom and is unwilling to send people under the fence, you want them to be guests, it is impossible to be controlled by us." Xiao Wuhua likes to work against her brother the most.

"Really? Shiro is also willing to worship me as his father-in-law? Isn't his master and brother going to follow us back to Jinling? Xiao Moke was a little excited when he heard Xiao Yao agree to be his adopted son.

"Yes, Shiro said that after following his father, he can make achievements and get ahead! It's just that his master has a strange personality and likes to wander the world, if we take Shiro with him, he shouldn't follow us back to Jinling, but Shiro will arrange his master and brother to find us in Jinling in a few days. Xiao Wuhua became the microphone.

"Well, that's a bit of a pity, this Master Zhou's knife forging skills are superb and can create the world-famous Su Iron Knife, and Shiro's senior brother Gao Yuan is taciturn, but his martial arts are strong, alas, they are all talents!" Xiao Moke felt a little regretful.

"Famous teachers make high apprentices, I think the three of them can be worth an army! That day, Shiro and the three of them easily defeated the gang of water thieves. Xiao Wuhua remembered the first time she met Xiao Yao.

"Hmph, my father can look down on them, it's a blessing that they have cultivated for several lifetimes! Father, we've been here for a long time, so I think we'd better rush back to Jinling as soon as possible. "Xiao Shilian has decided to recognize his relatives, and he no longer argues, he just wants to leave here as soon as possible.

"Well, it's true that it was delayed for a few days, but it's worth it to meet Shiro! Let's leave for Jinling tomorrow! Xiao Moke nodded and said.

In the early morning of the next day, on the dock of Xunyang County, Xiao Yao led everyone to say goodbye to Xiao Moke's family.

"Shiro, you are talented and intelligent, you are a genius, and it is my blessing that I, Xiao Moke, can accept you as a righteous son! It's just that time is pressing now, I want to rush back to Jinling to resume my life, and those etiquette procedures will wait for you to arrive in Jinling! Xiao Moke held Xiao Yao's hand and said.

"Father-in-law, Shiro has had no parents since he was a child, and now he can have another father, and he is a general, this is a blessing that I cultivated in my previous life." After speaking, Xiao Yao knelt down and kowtowed to Xiao Moke three times.

"Is Master Zhou really not going back to Jinling with us? With your superb iron-smelting skills, Master Zhou, I guarantee that you will be able to be reused by the emperor! Xiao Moke was still persuading Zhou Chao and them to go to Jinling together.

Zhou Chao smiled slightly and said: "Lord Xiao is serious, Zhou is a rough person, he doesn't know etiquette, and he goes to Jinling together, but he is not comfortable at the feet of the Son of Heaven." I believe that Lord Xiao also takes a fancy to my ability to build the craft of the Su Iron Knife, so after Shiro's analysis and persuasion last night, although I will not go to Jinling, I have decided to stay in Xunyang County, return to my old business, and open an ironsmith shop, haha, I hope that I can create a weapon for adults to take advantage of at that time. ”

"Oh? Is this serious? Xiao Moke was shocked, he just hoped that Zhou Chao could build weapons for his army.

"Seriously! Zhou has taken two apprentices all over the world as a family for many years, and now Shiro can be appreciated by Lord Xiao and accepted as a righteous son, he will definitely be able to get ahead in the future, and I will rest assured about him, and now I should also settle down and think about how to carry forward my craft so as not to disgrace the master. Zhou Chao nodded and said.

Xiao Wuhua, who was on the side, immediately interjected and said: "Master should go back to Jinling with us that week, you need an official document from the government to open an iron workshop, and I have my father's help to take care of it in Jinling, so as to ensure that your business will be prosperous in the future." In fact, her careful thinking still wants to stay with Xiao Yao every day as soon as possible.

"Hehe, Miss Wuhua doesn't know, the iron workshop I want to open is not an ironsmith shop on the street, but a workshop that can make weapons for the imperial army! The scale is large, the materials required are also manpower, the waterway here in Xunyang County is convenient, it is convenient to transport materials from all over the world, and with the prestige of Lord Li An-sama here, I believe that the ironwork will be completed and started soon. Zhou Chao explained.

"Well, that makes sense! Then I won't force Master Zhou, and when the time comes, I will definitely say a few good words for you in front of the emperor, so that your iron workshop can be built more smoothly! Everyone, farewell, Shiro, you also have to come to Jinling to find your father-in-law early! Xiao Moke saluted everyone and went on board.

Xiao Wuhua was also waving goodbye to Xiao Yao with red eyes, and kept telling Xiao Yao to go to Jinling to find them as soon as possible.

Although Xiao Shilian didn't like Xiao Yao, these people at the dock had also saved their family and fought side by side together, so they also saluted respectfully and waved goodbye.
