"General Guan." Yang Guozhu explained, "We don't know where the Mongol Tatars will attack, so we have to gather all the elite. The will of the imperial court is very clear, there will be no reinforcements this time, and the burden on this official is very heavy. ”

Guan Mingke had no choice but to stand up and reply: "The subordinate obeys the order and obeys the arrangement of the chief soldier." ”

The combined fleet in Yulin Bay had been dispatched, and the Pearl dragged the 777 to Singapore at a speed of less than 5 knots. As a precaution, the God and Wanzhou remained in Yulin Bay, and at the same time Zhang Guodong ordered to strengthen the number of artillery in the Yulin Bay Battery, installing several 32-pounder guns and 24-pounder guns.

While continuing to be the commander-in-chief of his martial law headquarters, Han Wantao stepped up the recruitment of the 2nd Independent Division, which, in addition to the three infantry regiments, has now recruited a new 4th Regiment equipped with rifled guns, with a strength of 6,000 troops. However, because this conscription was conscripted in accordance with the provisions of the promulgated "Compulsory Military Service Law", it caused some commotion in Yulin Bay and Wanzhou. Xia Yang, Song Yingxing and others ran at both ends of Wanzhou and Yazhou to do some pacification work, but there was no big mess.

After Zhao Zhiruo came home from work, she saw Cheng Yiyi at home. All the things in Yulin Bay are now in charge of the joint command, Cheng Yiyi's work has suddenly become idle, and martial law has not ended, so Cheng Yiyi will stay at home and take care of the children if she has nothing to do.

"Sister Yiyi, did you accompany Bihe to the hospital today?" After Ye Zhan left, Mrs. Ye found out that Bihe was pregnant, which made Ye Sunquan's family very happy, and the two daughters-in-law had at the same time. After Cheng Yiyi learned the news, she took the initiative to take care of Bihe.

"I've been there, everything is fine." Cheng Yiyi said with a smile, "I have a very heavy task today, not only with Bihe, but also with Jiayi." ”

"Sister Yiyi, you rest for a while, I'll prepare dinner."

"No need, Miss Chen is ready, let's eat when Lu Lao and Aunt He come back." Cheng Yiyi pulled Zhao Zhiruo to sit down, "Zhiruo, I have something I want to discuss with you." ”

"What's the matter, Sister Yiyi." Zhao Zhiruo smiled, "You don't have to discuss with me, just make your own ideas." ”

"I'll really have to discuss this with you." Cheng Yiyi said, "Lu Lao and Aunt He have also lived in our house for a while, they are also very easy-going, and the two old people like filial piety and filial piety very much. Jiayi was originally their granddaughter, and now she lives next door. ”

Zhao Zhiruo was a little confused by Cheng Yiyi: "Sister Yiyi, what do you want to say, I also like Lu Lao and Principal He." ”

"Lu Lao's health is not as good as before, and Aunt He is also older. The two old people have only one little maid to serve at home, which is very inconvenient. So I'm going to let them officially move in with us, and we'll treat them as if they were parents, but we still have to ask for your consent to do so. ”

"That's what happened." Zhao Zhiruo said, "I have no opinion, as long as you and Xu Lang agree." Principal He has always taken good care of me when she was at school, and I have long treated her as an elder in my heart. ”

"It's good if you agree." Cheng Yiyi gently pinched Zhao Zhiruo's face, "Xu Lang has been gone for several months, why haven't you even reacted at all." ”

"Sister Yiyi, you know that we miss him very much in our hearts, and I don't know if he can eat and live well in the north, whether Gao Chen can take good care of him, but I know that we can't show it."

Cheng Yiyi looked at Zhao Zhiruo and wanted to cry again, and said with a smile: "That's not what I'm talking about, Ye Zhan planted it before he left, so you didn't react?" You worked hard many times before Xu Lang left. ”

"Sister Yiyi." Zhao Zhiruo took Cheng Yiyi's hand and shook it from side to side, "Every time, the three of us are together, isn't my sister also unresponsive." ”

"How can I compare with you, I'm old." Cheng Yiyi picked up the mirror on the table and looked at it, and said with a self-deprecating smile, "Look, my face is spotted, I can't compare to you." ”

The two women were joking, and the voices of filial piety and filial piety sounded in the courtyard: "Grandpa, grandma, grandpa hug, grandma hug." ”

Then Lu Tianxiang's voice came in: "Good, all good, grandpa hug." Are you two naughty at home today? ”

Cheng Yiyi and Zhao Zhiruo walked out of the door, and Lu Tianxiang and He Yun were laughing with a child in their arms.

"Filial piety, filial piety, come down quickly, don't tire your grandparents."

"Not tired, not tired." Lu Tianxiang kissed Xiaoyan's face and put the child down, "This kid is getting heavier and heavier, grandpa is really about to be unable to hold it." ”

Zhao Zhiruo hurriedly stepped forward to support Lu Tianxiang: "You two little guys are really naughty, grandparents are back, hurry up and wash your hands and eat." ”

At the dinner table, Cheng Yiyi poured a glass of wine for Lu Tianxiang: "Old Lu, Aunt He, I have something I want to discuss with you two elders." ”

Lu Tianxiang picked up his wine glass: "What's the matter, is it Xu Lang's matter again." ”

"No, it's about your second elder." Cheng Yiyi said with a smile, "You see that now Bihe is pregnant, Mrs. Ye took her back to the next door, Jiayi also has it now, and the two little guys of Xiaoyan and Xiaoyong can't do without your second elder, so I wonder if your second elder will live here, and we can take care of each other." ”

He Yun looked at Lu Tianxiang and said to Cheng Yiyi: "Yiyi, we have received your wishes, but your Uncle Lu and I are both old, and people will cause trouble when they are old." You're all young, and it's going to be inconvenient for us to stay here for a long time. ”

"Principal He, there's nothing inconvenient." Zhao Zhiruo said, "Since I came to Yulin Bay, you have always taken good care of me, and now it's time for me to honor you." ”

After Zhao Zhiruo finished speaking, she asked the two children, "Do you two want grandpa and grandma to live in our house?" ”

"Yes, yes." Xiaoyan and Xiaoyong stuck to Lu Tianxiang and his wife, "Don't leave grandparents, I still want grandparents to hug me." ”

Chen also persuaded: "Mr. Lu, old lady, as the saying goes, 'a family with an old man is like a treasure', this family is good at everything, if you are missing, you two old people will live." ”

He Yun wiped the corners of his eyes: "You are all good boys, I know your intentions, but let's talk about this matter later." ”

"Yes, let's eat first." Lu Tianxiang picked up the chopsticks, "Let's discuss it when Xu Lang comes back, don't be in a hurry, anyway, we live here now." ”
