Chapter 308: Good Things Come in Pairs

Just after the full moon wine of the Tang Mansion, Chuzhou got good news.

Huo Shun is back.

It has been ten months since Huo Shun went to Liaodong in June last year.

Huo Shun went north and was burdened with two tasks, one was to rescue Master Lin's only son, Lin Qingwen who was assigned to Liaodongwei, and the other was to find a channel to sell horses.

If you don't want to go, there will be no news.

In October last year, the Chuzhou army sent two groups of men and horses north one after another, even to inquire about Huo Shun's news, but they found nothing.

When Huo Shun came back this time, he not only brought Lin Qingwen, but also two boats of war horses.

The news was sent to the Taiwei Mansion, and Huo Wu immediately jumped up.

Although Huo Shun was not by Huo Wu's side for a year, in fact, Huo Wu valued this cousin the most.

Huo Wu lost his father at a young age and was raised by his cousin and sister-in-law for a few years, watching Huo Shun from birth to babbling.

Later, Huo Wu was taken away for more than ten years, and when he came back, he was not estranged from Huo Shun, a cousin.

This nephew is already ill-fated, and he doesn't know whether he lives or dies because of the mission of the Chuzhou Army, and Huo Wu is also uneasy every time he thinks about it.

Now that you finally get the news, how can you not be happy?

It was the subordinates of the Jinling sailor who came to deliver the letter.

This time, the "Eastern Crusade" army returned to the division, and 10,000 sailors were left on the Songjiang side to prevent the Taizhou white shirts from moving and Taizhou white shirts, and also to prevent the bandits from making trouble.

"You arrived in Matsue the day before yesterday? Isn't that about to Jinling? ”

Huo Wu personally met the messenger and stood up excitedly.

The waterway from Songjiang to Jinling is 600 miles, and the boat is sailing against the current, which is three or four days of effort.

Huo Wu asked a few more carefully, and immediately went to the next door to find Uncle Huo.

Uncle Huo wanted to continue the strings a few years ago, but he made a fuss, and in the end, although he changed his mind, he still moved out of the Taiwei Mansion.

It's just that Huo Wu didn't worry that he was elsewhere, so he placed it in the back street of Taiwei's Mansion.

When Huo Wu went, Huo Shishi was also there, listening to Uncle Huo talking to him about the "Eastern Crusade".

In the past two years, after experiencing the destruction of the family, Uncle Huo was also afraid, if it weren't for the filial piety of his parents on the stone, Uncle Huo would have married his granddaughter-in-law into the door and spread out.

But no matter how anxious it is, there is no reason to marry in filial piety.

If you can't spread the branches, Uncle Huo doesn't want to let the stone go to the battlefield.

Before, Shi followed the old marshal, and he was only familiar with the affairs of the water master.

In February, during the "Eastern Crusade", Uncle Huo stopped him in private.

Still Shi didn't want to be too far away from Huo Hu, Huo Bao and other cousins, and repeatedly promised that he would pay attention to his safety, so he asked for the opportunity to follow the expedition.

But he didn't know that before the army started, Uncle Huo made an excuse to meet the old marshal Yu and talked about his worries about the eldest grandson.

Huo's family's room, the junior is the only seedling of the stone, and he really can't stand to miss it.

The old marshal didn't like it in his heart, since he was a martial artist, where could he not go to the battlefield to fight?

If you are really reluctant to let your children and grandchildren take risks, you should be transferred to a civilian job, who can barely do it?

Now Uncle Huo is reluctant to let his grandson transfer to a civilian position, but he knows that in the Chuzhou army today, the military merits are the heaviest.

But if you don't want to fight and take risks, where does the military merit come from?

Could it be that just because he is the cousin and nephew of Taiwei Huo and his grandson-in-law, he can come over to rub his qualifications?

It's just that looking at Uncle Huo's sixtieth year, Huo Lei has several layers of filial piety, and the old marshal Yu can only sigh.

After experiencing life and death parting, you will become more and more afraid of life and death parting.

When he arrived on the road of the "Eastern Crusade", Marshal Yu did not give Shi any task.

It's just that he won't take the credit of others from others because the stone is the future grandson-in-law, so after walking around, the stone is still long and long, and there is no merit.

Shi has regrets in his heart, but in the end, he is honest and kind, and he can't say anything to complain in front of his grandfather.

Rao is so, in Uncle Huo's view, it is also suspenseful to go on the battlefield.

"You can't go with me next time...... Wait for two years, when you become a family and have children, grandpa will not stop you......"

Uncle Huo sighed: "You don't have to think about comparing with tigers and leopards, it's better to live peacefully and peacefully than anything else......"

The stone brought helplessness.

Even if he was only a young man in a mountain village before, after seeing more in this year, he also knew that Huo Wu and the Huo family had no way out at the moment.

Chuzhou military victory, Huojia chicken dog ascended to heaven; The Chuzhou army was defeated, and the Huo family was worried about extermination.

Huo Hu and Huo Bao have made great achievements, earning not only their future, but also their lives.

He is also a child of the Huo family, but he has achieved nothing, and only relies on a family affair to gain a foothold in the Chuzhou army.

But in martial affairs, he is not outstanding; I was in contact with an unfamiliar sailor, and I was even more confused.

Marshal Yu didn't say anything to his face, but Shi was self-aware and knew that this father-in-law didn't like him.

Huo Wu stood outside the door and listened to Uncle Huo's words, but he didn't think too much.

Huo Shun knew his life and death before, and the stone wanted to inherit the bloodline of the long house, but it was not about peace.

"Big brother, big brother, good news, Shunzi has news, Songjiang, who arrived the day before yesterday, is estimated to be in Jinling the day after tomorrow ......."

Huo Wu pushed the door in, and his voice was loud and brisk.

Uncle Huo "Teng" got up, with a shudder: "Shunzi? My second child? This...... Is there really news? ”

Huo Wu "haha" smiled: "Can you still lie and deceive the eldest brother?" General An was in Songjiang and sent someone back to say ...... Junzi not only came back, but also made a great contribution, bringing Lin Qingwen back, and also bringing back a war horse......"

Just these two credits are enough for Huo Shun to be promoted by two levels.

Uncle Huo had tears in his eyes: "It's good to come back, it's good to come back......"

As for the credit or something, he really doesn't care about it.

Huo Wu's identity is here, and no one will underestimate Huo Shun, a cousin, even if he doesn't do anything.

"Big brother can rest assured, let Shunzi ...... in Jinling in the future"

When Huo Wu saw Uncle Huo's appearance, he was also sad and thought about it.

Uncle Huo is also in his sixtieth year, and he wants to hold his children and grandchildren by his side.

The Chuzhou army is not short of people now, and Huo Wu does not have the habit of cronyism, so he does not force everyone to stay.

Huo Hu and Huo Bao are self-motivated, and Huo Wu will be promoted; The stone wants to be stable like this, and Huo Wu does not object.

Because he still had to report the good news to Master Lin, Huo Wu didn't stay long, and said that he would send someone to the dock to keep an eye on it, so he went to Lin Mansion.

*

Forest House.

In addition to Master Lin, Lin Jin and Lin Ping'an are all there.

Lin Jin was under Du Laoba and now serves in the Jinling garrison.

Lin Ping'an used to take care of the chores by Master Lin's side, but he was later taken by the owner of the horse village, and he used to work by the side of the master of the horse village.

In the previous military school, the two brothers were selected as cadets, and the future is promising.

Master Lin called the two over, talking about the marriage of the two.

Lin Jin is nineteen years old, Lin Ping'an is seventeen, and both brothers are young.

The two are not generals, one is a staff officer, and the other is a logistical officer, which is much safer than a general, but they have also reached the age when they should say goodbye.

It was not easy to mention it before, because after all, Lin Jin had a marriage contract with Ma Juzi in his early years, and it was easy to criticize people when he said that he was not allowed to mention the past.

Now that the colt has married someone else and is pregnant, the previous marriage contract can also be turned over.

Master Lin looked at Lin Jin: "Last time, I was the master of the marriage on your behalf, you are not happy to regret the marriage, now this time I will be with you!" ”

Lin Jin was ashamed: "Grandfather, it's the grandson who is ignorant, so naturally the grandfather is ......in charge."

Before, he felt that he and Ma Juzi could be brothers, not husband and wife, and the marriage contract was too ridiculous, and it was reasonable to withdraw from the marriage.

Who made him boast of his high talent, and disliked the coal's vulgarity from the bottom of his heart.

But after a year, after experiencing so much, he has also reflected a lot.

The marriage is already good with two surnames, and the master of the horse village is Gao Yi, who took in their grandfather and grandson in his early years, and treated him like a son and nephew; The foal grew up with him, and he couldn't be in love, and he was more than flesh and blood.

But he was confused, and turned his back on the two of them, which was really unrighteous.

He regretted it a long time ago.

It's just that the water is hard to recover, and the past is finally over.

Seeing his grandson's depressed appearance, Master Lin frowned: "I gave up my old face to toss with you once, and I can't afford to toss a second time...... If you have any ideas, just say it, if you can't think of it, just wait, until you understand the choice and responsibility, and then make your own ......"

Lin Jin looked stunned, and finally nodded.

Master Lin looked at Lin Ping'an again: "What about you?" ”

Lin Ping'an glanced at Lin Jin and said, "Grandfather, the young and the old are orderly, let's wait for the eldest brother to get married......

Master Lin shook his head and said, "There is no need for this, this Lin Mansion also needs a hostess......"
