Chapter 187: Juvenile Travel
Huo Bao rode on his horse and looked at the young man beside him.
said that he was a teenager, but he had long hands and feet, and he didn't need to let him more than Huo Bao.
With thin eyebrows and thin eyes, he had a smiling face, it was none other than his new companion An Changsheng.
Yu Dutong said that he wanted his grandson to come over as a companion, but Huo Bao couldn't use this major general of the water division as a small servant, so he filled it into the pro-military camp and hung up a hundred households.
An Changsheng was riding on a horse, carrying a long knife behind him.
Although the Yu and An families were born as water bandits, they were not destitute people, but large households with long foundations, so they could respond to every call and pull up a deal.
This An Changsheng was pampered and raised, but he was both civil and military, and he was not bad.
Sensing that someone was looking at him, he looked over and said respectfully: "Bao Ye! ”
Huo Bao said: "Follow the leopard bark!" ”
Although the two are of the same age, this is the future niece and son-in-law, so they naturally have to be promoted.
It is to make a face for An Changsheng, and it is also to give face to the Chaohu sailor behind him.
Thinking of Niu Niu, who was only four heads, the corners of Huo Bao's mouth twitched.
However, there are Jia Daihua and Xue Jin's relatives in the front, and he and Xiuxiu in the back, all of whom are not very old, and An Changsheng's relationship with Niuniu is not unusual.
An Changsheng's little face was slightly red, revealing a little youthful and shy: "Uncle Bao! ”
Huo Bao followed beside him, looking at An Changsheng critically.
Although Niuniu is his cousin in the next room, she is the only female baby in the fifth room of the Huo family.
The son-in-law of the Huo family is this one.
An Changsheng was very discerning, and without waiting for Huo Bao to speak, he immediately changed his words, and said, "Brother Leopard! ”
Huo Bao pursed his lips and nodded, which was considered to be a response.
Hou Xiaoming and Qiu Wei looked at An Changsheng with a little envy.
is not envious of his relatives, but envy that he can become Baoye's niece and son-in-law.
Speaking of which, there are not a few related households in the Scouts.
There are the Zhu family brothers, Li Yuan, even Qiu Wei is also a relational household, only Huo Bao can be related to Huo Bao, and now there is An Changsheng.
Huo Bao saw the expressions of the two and said with a smile: "What? Are you also thinking about getting married? ”
Hou Xiaoming turned his head and ignored Huo Bao's jokes.
Qiu Wei's expression was gloomy.
Speaking of it, he also has filial piety on him, which is thinking of Tang Guang again.
Before starting from Chuzhou this time, Huo Bao asked him his opinion whether to stay in Chuzhou to guard filial piety or to go with the army.
Qiu Wei chose to go with the army.
In troubled times, relatives are either born or dead.
There are many people with filial piety.
is Huo Bao, and now he is wearing his mother's filial piety.
The Haw Par brothers also carry the filial piety of their grandparents.
Huo Bao knew that he had lost his words, and he couldn't help but regret it, but it was not easy to persuade him, so he turned his head and joked to Hou Xiaoming: "Is this a shame?" Starting a family and starting a business, this is a big deal, and your family affairs must fall on Uncle Bao...... What kind of rarity, I haven't told Uncle Bao in advance, and the time to save it is not satisfactory. ”
Hou Xiaoming is different from others, born as an orphan and has no relatives.
He is the same as Huo Bao, and he will become a Ding next year.
"Everything!"
Hou Xiaoming is very generous.
Huo Bao looked over and said with a smile: "What's the matter?" Beautiful and ugly, soft and hard, no preference? It's better to think about it, go back and let my dad choose a proper candidate for you according to your heart. ”
Although Hou Xiaoming is his person, it is a bit like child's play for him to marry Hou Xiaoming as a half-year-old teenager, and it still falls on his father's head.
Hou Xiaoming said seriously: "The people that the fifth master and the treasure master fancy will not be wrong!" ”
As for looks and temperament, it doesn't matter at all.
If he hadn't met the Huo family's father and son, he would be an orphan, let alone start a family.
Huo Bao looked at Hou Xiaoming, and he was also a little embarrassed.
Hou Xiaoming's biggest shortcoming is that he has no foundation.
Even if he is a general, but this orphan is born, and his six relatives have no support, and if he really wants to say that he is close, he will be picked.
It's just that Huo Wu won't adopt his adopted son, and Huo Bao can't have more than one adoptive brother.
But a good henchman, why should he be picked on and looked down upon because of his background?
If he really had a second niece, he would rather Hou Xiaoming be his niece-in-law.
The second niece?
Huo Bao's heart moved, thinking of the family in Jinling.
The family of the house, and his father are still in the five suits, and when they reach their own generation, they are out of the suit.
After Huo Wu and Second Master Huo recognized their relatives, the family got the news and sent their children back to Binjiang to walk around.
But they are all courtesy exchanges between clansmen, and they do not deliberately cling to each other, nor do they avoid suspicion and cut off contacts.
Not humble or arrogant, but a good family style.
If there is a suitable candidate for this family, he can choose a wife for Hou Xiaoming.
It's just this generation......
Huo Lin's son and nephew are younger than himself, and the same generation in Jinling is about the same.
At that time, it will not be a niece-in-law, and it will not be a sister-in-law......
An Changsheng listened to a few people and glanced at Hou Xiaoming twice.
Hou Xiaoming is the commander of the left wing of the soldiers, but he can let the laborer Huo Wuye choose his relatives, and he is worthy of being Xiao Baoye's confidant.
He was very lucky.
With Huo Bao's attention to Hou Xiaoming and Qiu Wei, if it weren't for Chaohu Water Master, it would be impossible for Xiao Baoye to choose a niece and son-in-law among the two.
When he heard about the "Scouts" before, he didn't take them to heart, he just thought they were a juvenile reserve army or something.
It wasn't until I joined the Scout that I realized that Scout was very unworthy of its name.
The so-called "Tong" is not that the soldiers are teenagers, but that the first batch of small leaders with Xiao Baoye are teenagers.
There are not many soldiers at the bottom, and there are not many half-dings, and they are basically adults.
I heard that this team went north to aid the Bozhou army in August and annihilated 1,000 enemies.
Even when they entered Luzhou in early September, the Scouts also made efforts when they fought Shen County and Luyang.
Several generals under Huo Wuye stood side by side, and Xiao Baoye's side was also a three-point soldier.
When these people grow up, they are all generals who lead troops independently.
An Changsheng couldn't help but look at Qiu Wei again, fourteen or five years old......
……
Xue Biao sat in the carriage and looked at the teenagers in front of him, and couldn't help but regret.
My son is young and still babbling, and it would be nice if he was a teenager.
When I just came down from Black Python Mountain to Quyang, the younger generation looked about the same, but Huo Bao was slightly better.
Now that everyone else has stood up, Ma Juzi has taken over Ma Laoliu's class, and the tiger and leopard brothers have also begun to lead the troops, Lin Jin and Du Laoba are not what they used to be, only Xue Biao's adopted son Xue Xiao is lagging behind.
It's not that everyone is far or near based on blood, which is also the reason why Xue Biao deliberately suppressed it.
If you really let this adopted son stand in his head everywhere, then when his son grows up, wouldn't it depend on the face of his adopted brother?
Xue Biao was in Jinling in his early years, and there were more than a dozen adopted sisters, adopted sons, and adopted daughters.
In his eyes, these people were supplied by the Xue family, but they were better in name, and they were actually no different from domestic slaves, and they should contribute to the Xue family.
But the accident in March made him look down on him.
In March, the former prefect of Jinling was greedy, targeted the Xue family's industry, and found an excuse to copy the Xue family.
Xue Biao was cunning and rabbit in three holes, and the loss was not big, but he hurt his face in the end.
He was originally worried about the adoptive sister of the prefect's yamen, so he asked someone to inquire and wanted to protect one or two, but he heard the news that the adoptive sister was pregnant and was about to be corrected.
Why didn't Xue Biao know that he was bitten by his own dog?
This Xue family's industry can't be said to be a "name for it".
He was not willing to suffer, and arranged for someone to directly give the adoptive sister an abortion pill.
I want to "give birth to a child" and dream!
With this lesson from the past, how could Xue Biao be willing to let Xue Xiao really stand up?
But the son is here for many years, and he can't grow up with Huo Bao and others, and there is no suitable in-law marriage to help.
Xue Biao could only sigh his luck.
From the son to the daughter, he beckoned Huo Bao to get into the car.
"Xiaobao, remember when you were in Jinling in March, you dealt with the Jia family? What does the Jia family mean? Xue Biao asked.
When picking up Xue Jin back before, Jia Yan had mentioned a handwritten letter to explain.
Xue Biao didn't think there was anything at the beginning, after all, his own family was in front of the Jia family.
Now that I am full of confidence, I think about it again, but it is not smooth.
Huo Bao didn't know how to respond for a while.
To tell the truth, it's like chewing your tongue behind your back; But if you don't say it, it seems that you can't tell the difference between far and near.
Regardless of Xue Biao's personality, he now has a good relationship with his father and does his best for the Chuzhou Army.
Think about how much Yuxue's smart sister Baochai has suffered because of her lack of background.
If you start with Xue Biao, the Xue family's door is one level higher, where can Sister Baochai go?
Huo Bao was very curious.
Xue Biao saw Huo Bao hesitating, and said with an unhappy face: "Is it the Zhen family who is angry with Sister Jin?" Hmph, it's just an abandoned son of the family, but he dares to snub Sister Jin! ”
Huo Bao was surprised.
With Xue Biao's news, where do you not know this?
Now that the old thing is brought up again, is this a desire to repent of marriage?
Huo Bao hurriedly said: "The two uncles of the Jia family are now in the army...... It's the Zhen family, and it's also the old surname of Jinling......"
Don't bother anymore.
This marriage between Xue and Jia is now the link between the Jia family and the Chuzhou army.
In the future Guogong Mansion, Xue Biao really wants to regret his marriage, but he can't find a better marriage.
Xue Biao's eyes narrowed, and he complained: "Because they are from a gentry family, they were profitable before, so they married us...... When it is unprofitable, and it is not lukewarm to regret it because of bad skin...... If it weren't for the great cause of Chuzhou, I wouldn't have spared them! ”
Huo Bao said: "Uncle Seven has always taken care of the overall situation, where will he be like them?" Left and right will be in Jinling in the future, and when they are dealing with each other, where will they really let them wronged their sister. ”
Xue Biao chuckled, his expression a little familiar.
In the past he was dressed as an upstart, and a few months ago he started dressed as a layman.
It's just too hard and slightly contrived.
When I saw Monk Feng, the real layman, I had some meaning of secretly rubbing and learning.
Now he speaks and acts with a little more compassion.
Xue Biao was looking forward to it.
Although he was rich before, because of the businessman, he was shorter than the Jia brothers who were born in the gentry.
It's not what it used to be.
What about the entrenched local clans?
The Wu family in Chuzhou, the Lu family in Luzhou, which one is not a century-old family?
As a result, it was disobedient and disappeared.
The brothers of the Jia family are interested, if they are not interesting, the end is not much better than that of the Wu and Lu families.
In order to protect the Jia family, not many people know about Jia Yuan's correspondence with Huo Wu.
Xue Biao is the one who doesn't know.
This gave Xue Biao one more thought.
This time I went to Jinling, in addition to inquiring about the news, wouldn't it be better if I could contact people in the army?
Military power is precisely his shortcoming.
If he can really recruit the Jia Shi family, it will be a help for him.
