Chapter Twenty-Eight: Talking Medium

The next morning, Tang Ning was sleeping in a daze, and was suddenly woken up by the sound of "snatching" outside, and when he got up, he saw that it was Mulan chopping wood, so he hurriedly rushed out to stop him: "Sister, sister, how can I let you do this." ”

Hua Mulan casually blocked it and said disapprerovitically: "What's this, since I'm back, I can't stay at home all day, and I don't know how to weave and cook, so I'll make some effort." Besides, even if I don't do this, I have to practice martial arts, otherwise it won't be long before I get fat like those generals who don't fight anymore. ”

For Mulan's statement, Tang Ning very much agrees, after the general professional athletes retire or after the military is discharged, because they no longer maintain the previous high-intensity physical training, the stimulation of muscles has stopped, so the muscles will soon be converted into fat, so they will be like blowing fat, a very obvious example of this is Yao Ming......

Although Tang Ning understood this truth, he still snatched the axe from Mulan's hand and said, "Then you can't let a dignified general like you, sister, do this kind of rough work." ”

"But I'm not a general anymore." Mulan argued.

"By the way, sister, I heard that the emperor plans to make you Shang Shulang, why don't you resign? You see, even your subordinates before have now risen several levels in a row. Tang Ning asked curiously.

Hua Mulan smiled bitterly and said: "The first is because I am really tired of fighting outside all these years, and I don't want to live that kind of life when the knife licks the blood, and either you die or I die." The second is because of my identity, my father's military service is a big crime of deception, if someone finds out after taking over Shang Shulang, not only will I be unlucky, but it will even affect you, so it is better to quit everything and come back to enjoy the pastoral life with peace of mind. You may not believe it, but last night was the most restful sleep I've had in years. ”

After listening to Mulan's explanation, Tang Ning was right to think about it carefully, after all, the status of women in feudal society is very low, and the reason why the emperor is willing to reuse Hua Mulan as Shang Shulang is based on her identity as a man, if she knew that she was a daughter, it was estimated that it would be impossible to give her this position.

Just as the two were chatting, the flower mother came out and greeted, "Breakfast is ready, hurry up and come in to eat." ”

In the past, Tang Ning had always boasted that he ate very fast, but today he had just eaten two or three bites, and when he saw Mulan wipe her mouth and stand up, he couldn't help but exclaim: "Sister, are you done eating?" ”

Only then did Mulan realize that she was eating a little too fast, so she replied a little embarrassedly: "Well, I'm used to it in the army, after all, no one knows when the enemy will come, so I always eat a bite, and the sooner the better." ”

Mulan's simple answer immediately aroused the emotion of the flower mother, and she said while wiping her tears: "Hey, Mulan, my poor child, how much suffering you have suffered outside all these years." As he spoke, he gave her another bowl of rice, handed it over and advised, "Eat this bowl of rice slowly, and you won't have to go out to fight in the future." ”

Father Hua also blamed himself on the side: "Hey, if it weren't for my broken leg, I wouldn't need Mulan to be a soldier for me." ”

Seeing the two old men blaming themselves so much, Mulan hurriedly comforted: "Daddy, Grandma, you don't have to be like this, don't you think I'm doing well now." ”

After a long time, Father and Mother Hua calmed down, and then Mother Hua asked Mulan tentatively, "Mulan, what are your plans for the future?" ”

Hua Mulan seemed to be a little asked, and after thinking for a while, she shook her head and said: "I really haven't thought about this, what I was thinking about before was that I would never fight again in the future, go home and enjoy a peaceful life, and spend more time with my father and mother." ”

"Have you ever thought about getting married?" The flower mother asked.

"Of course I'm going to get married, I can't live my whole life." Mulan replied with a look of course.

"Then you haven't met a suitable one in the army all these years?" Tang Ning leaned over and asked, because in his opinion, a heroine like Mulan had to be a young and heroic general to be worthy.

Unexpectedly, Hua Mulan waved her hand and said: "They can't do it, they have been too familiar for more than ten years, how can they be husband and wife?" And they basically have families, so I can't go over and be small, right? ”

I don't know why I heard the truth of Hua Mulan's words "It's too familiar to be a husband and wife", Tang Ning couldn't help but think of the joke "It's too familiar to start", but if you think about it carefully, this is right, friends who are too familiar can only be friends because there is no sense of mystery.

And the flower mother said happily: "It's okay not to marry those generals, they are fighting outside all the year round, and they can't see each other a few times a year, and they have to be afraid of them, and I'll go to the matchmaker next door and ask her to help you find a few good people." ”

Tang Ning didn't hold out any hope for this matchmaker Zhang, because he felt that in the small Yucheng, it was impossible for anyone to be worthy of Mulan, the first female general in the ages, but at this time, he was not good at renting, so he could only wait until the matchmaker introduced him to make trouble, after all, this was related to his main task.

However, what Tang Ning didn't expect was that Mrs. Zhang, who has always been sharp-tongued and eloquent, did not accept it as usual after hearing the meaning of the flower mother, but pondered for a while, and then said with some embarrassment: "Sister Hua, it is said that I should agree to this kind of happy event, but the situation of your Mulan is too special, I don't think I seem to have this ability, or you should ask another master." ”

"Eh, Mrs. Zhang, what do you mean by this? Do you think my family gives you less commission or do you have any conflict with me on weekdays? Father Hua asked unhappily.

Mrs. Zhang hurriedly explained: "Brother Hua, you misunderstood, with the relationship between our two families, you don't give me a commission, I also have to help Zhang Luo in this matter, not to mention that you gave so much this time." It's really hard to keep this matchmaker! It's not that you don't know what your Mulan's identity is, that's a dignified general! The battle on the day she went home, it is no exaggeration to say that it was definitely the largest battle in Yucheng in the past ten years, and even the Taishou family couldn't compare to marrying a daughter-in-law. Where do you think I'm going to find a young man who can be worthy of your Mulan?! At least it has to be a prince and grandson, but I can't get through that door! ”
