"Shoot foreign guns." Lin Yuxi replied, turning her head to look at Lin Yiqing, "Fourth uncle, how am I doing?" ”

"Yuxi is very smart, she can learn it as soon as she learns, and she is also very accurate in her play." Lin Yiqing smiled approvingly, "Yuxi will definitely be a heroine in the future." ”

Hearing that her daughter had learned to shoot real guns, Chen Wan was really shocked.

"The fourth uncle teaches well." Lin Yuxi held Lin Yiqing's hand again, and was obviously very attached to Lin Yiqing.

Seeing her daughter's appearance, Chen Wan finally made up her mind.

"Uncle...... Are you going to enter Beijing in the next few days? Chen Wan asked.

"Yes." Lin Yiqing nodded, and put down Xiao Lin Shaojun in his arms, "I have almost arranged the things here, and when everything is finished, I will go to Beijing to see Your Majesty." ”

"Oh......" Chen Wan looked at Lin Yiqing, got up slowly, and bowed to Lin Yiqing, "In this case, there is one thing, I want to ask the uncle, and I hope the uncle will ......allow it."

"I don't know what my sister-in-law is told?" Lin Yiqing saw Chen Wan saluting to him solemnly, and his heart sank, and he said, "As long as I can do it, I will definitely obey my fate." ”

"These children, please ask my uncle to teach me on my behalf......" Chen Wan thought of Lin Yizhe, and her voice couldn't help but turn sad, "A few of them, they lost their fathers early...... I am a woman from a Taoist family, although I have read some books, but I only know some words and poems, and I can't teach them schoolwork, although they are now also studying in the primary school under the Harbour Master School, but after all, their knowledge is limited, I think...... Let them follow the uncle...... Maybe in the future, which of them. will be like their father......"

Chen Wan said this, although she tried to control her emotions, her voice was still choked with sadness.

"Sister-in-law, don't worry. These children are like my own flesh and blood, my sister-in-law trusts me, and Han Peng will not be disappointed. Lin Yiqing understood Chen Wan's intentions and immediately replied.

"Then I'll be relieved......" Chen Wan smiled, but tears still flowed.

"Since my sister-in-law said so, Hanpeng also has something to ask for." Lin Yiqing came to Chen Wan's face. Stared at her closely.

"Uncle, please tell ......"

"I also ask my sister-in-law to cherish her body for the sake of her brother's flesh and bones." Lin Yiqing didn't want to say words that would scare the children in front of several children. "It's okay for me to be the father of the children, but the mother of the children must be a sister-in-law."

Chen Wan understood what Lin Yiqing was talking about, and a faint warm current rose in her heart. She looked at Lin Yiqing. Tearfully nodded.

In fact, she did want to go with Lin Yizhe, but at this moment, in the face of Lin Yiqing's persuasion, the idea of seeking death suddenly disappeared.

"Uncle is in the Ryukyus, and he still has to stay for a few days, right?" Chen Wan felt her son Lin Guanchen looking at her with concern. I settled down and changed the subject.

This child has always been closest to him. She was afraid that the bad luck in what she had just said would be heard to him, so she quickly diverted the conversation.

"Yes." Lin Yiqing replied, "Sister-in-law, is there anything else?" ”

"There's nothing else to do, it's just ...... Han Peng, you also know that your brother is in England, and there is another ...... She also gave birth to a pair of children, and she wants to come and see you...... Maybe he will be in Ryukyu in the next few days, and before Han Peng enters Beijing, please take the time to meet her...... She, like me, is also a hard-working person......" Speaking of Lu Yingyan, Chen Wan's heart was sour.

"Sister-in-law, don't worry, I will wait for her to come before leaving." Lin Yiqing didn't expect that Lu Yingyan would have to travel thousands of miles to Ryukyu to see him, so he thought about it for a while, and immediately agreed.

After the two chatted for a while, Lin Yiqing took Eto Haruko to say goodbye, Chen Wan took the children to send them out, Chen Wan watched Lin Yiqing's figure go away, and her heart couldn't help but be full of amazement.

In a small hall, rows of young samurai and ninjas stood.

These people stood straight like soldiers, but they were not wearing military uniforms, but battle uniforms that resembled ninja costumes.

What is even more strange is that these young people are all standing side by side in pairs, a man and a woman.

"As you all know, we are inheriting the legacy of General Saigo! Overthrow the government that will be controlled by traitors and thieves! Deliver His Majesty the Emperor from their hands! ”

"I'm sure you've all heard that the traitorous government ceded Hokkaido to Lucia! We are the aspirants of King Qin, and we will never allow Japan's land to be ceded to foreign countries! Now our goal is Hokkaido! ”

Lin Yiqing looked at these strange soldiers he selected, and his eyes were full of expectation.

"Hokkaido is a rich land, but it is sparsely populated, and the greedy Lucia have long been eyeing it, and I want you to go to Hokkaido so that you can become seeds and take root there!"

"Some of you have said before that there is no place for us on Japanese soil, and now I want to tell you that this idea is wrong! It is true that your homeland was destroyed by the enemy, and your loved ones were savagely slaughtered by the enemy, but our path was not cut off! Now, we want to rebuild our homeland in the plains of Hokkaido, in the mountains and forests! And use it as a battlefield to fight the enemy! ”

"Would you like to go to Hokkaido? Answer me out loud! ”

"Yes!" The young warriors replied loudly in unison, and for a moment the sound shook the roof tiles.

"It's an honor for my subordinates to be able to fight with the lord!" A young ninja said, his voice choked, "My subordinates are waiting here, I don't know when I will be able to meet my lord again!" ……”

When Lin Yiqing heard his words, he looked at the young men and women one by one, and thought that many of them might be bloodied after walking out of this room, and they would never see him again, and he couldn't help but have tears in his eyes.

"If your subordinates can succeed in one battle, you will have the day when you and your lord will drink wine to celebrate the day of victory. If it doesn't work, then the subordinates will say goodbye to the lord! As if knowing Lin Yiqing's intentions, the ninja said loudly. knelt on one knee and saluted Lin Yiqing.

With his movements, the ninjas fell to their knees.

Lin Yiqing looked at them, knelt on one knee, and returned the salute with both hands in fists.

"My heart will always be with you!"

Seeing this scene, the hearts of Hidesuke Minamino and Hidehiko Sato jumped because of excitement.

Both of them. He will be the commander of the Wonder Soldiers who will go to Hokkaido.

Although they also knew that these ninjas were extremely combative, and they were as loyal to Lin Yiqing as they were. But they were still puzzled by Lin Yiqing's mixing of ninjas with them.

In particular, every male member of the Odd Soldier team is paired with a female ninja......

When Lin Yiqing got up, Eisuke Minamino finally couldn't help but say his doubts.

"Teacher, why did you let them go with us?" He gestured to a young female ninja beside him. Xiang Lin Yiqing asked. "It's too dangerous for them!"

"We are not afraid of danger! We have all experienced the dangers you have experienced! Otherwise wouldn't be standing here! The female ninja listened to him, obviously angry, glared at him proudly, and said.

"Eisuke, Eihiko, you are all my best students. Now is the time for you to take charge of yourself. Lin Yiqing looked at them. Said slowly, "As for why they accompany and help you, it is because I need you to know what true love is in battle, love can strengthen you, so that you can have the courage to fight in the most difficult moments, and with love, you will not despair." ”

Lin Yiqing said, turning to the female ninja beside Eisuke Minamino, "You are not only warriors, but also pioneers and masters there, you want to become a kindling and perpetuate your descendants there, only in this way will it be your true home." ”

Hearing Lin Yiqing's words, everyone understood.

"Yingyan, Yingsuke, and all of you," Lin Yiqing looked at the members of the Odd Soldier team and said, "This action is regarded as my final big test for you, but this time there is no passing and failing, passing, we still have to meet, fail, we are separated by yin and yang." ”

"Teacher, you don't need to say any more." Hidesuke Minamino and Hidehiko Sato saluted Lin Yiqing in unison, "We thank the teacher for giving us this opportunity to prove ourselves!" ”

"For the great cause of King Qin, for the future of our hometown and relatives, gentlemen, let's work together!" Lin Yiqing raised his hand to return the salute and said loudly.

"Try! Step up your game! Step up your game! The Odd Soldier members shouted loudly.

Looking at the young people in front of him and thinking of the journey they were about to embark on, Lin Yiqing's heart burned like a fire.

The vegetables in the melon shed were newly fertilized and watered again, but they still wilted and couldn't raise their heads. Li Xiangtian walked slowly back and forth with the shower, still thinking about Lao Ke's sudden visit. There was more or less room in the conversation, and it was no longer the unscrupulous mutual accusations when he was young, and Li Xiangtian was faintly a little lost. I bowed my head and walked to the entrance of the melon shed, and saw a pair of delicate feet standing there. When he looked up, his face was as usual: "Pei Yao, why did you come out again?" It's cold outside. ”

"What's wrong with you today? The soul is not guarded. Fu Peiyao looked at him, the light in her eyes flashing.

"What else can I do? I'm thinking about what to do for the New Year. ”

Fu Peiyao smiled, stretched out and pointed at his feet. There was some wet soil on the cloth boots, and Li Xiangtian, who was a little clean, would not let this kind of thing happen.

"Ah," Li Xiangtian dusted off with a smile, "You are pregnant, and I can't hold my mind a little." ”

Fu Peiyao smiled and snatched the shower and put it on the case, and took advantage of the situation to hold her husband's arm: "All year round, when you are a mother, you have to rest, and when you are a father, you won't stop?" I have a plan. ”

"You speak." Li Xiangtian's eyes were a little pure, and he was a little overwhelmed with childishness.

"Pinghe Town has been auspicious recently, and the mountains are full of acacia on a cold day. We didn't go out for a walk after we came to the ceremony, it's rare to be free this year, it's better to go there for the New Year, and by the way, we can also rest the mood and come back after the winter. ”

"Pinghe Town is not far away, but the cold weather has passed like this, and there is no preparation, so it is in a hurry, right?"

"The aunt of the Li family who does needlework next door is from Pinghe Town. I was invited to be a guest. Her family has a few ancestral houses that are empty, just enough to live in. Aunt Li has helped us a lot on weekdays, and living in her house can help her family. Second, let's scatter my mind, okay? ”

"You, you said last night that I wouldn't live, so don't use it when you go there now?"

"You're the man." Fu Peiyao smiled and stretched out her hand and nodded her husband's forehead, "It doesn't matter if we suffer hardships, the child has not been born yet, let him suffer with him?" Besides, we have been frugal in the past few years. I also saved some money, and it was not a problem to spend a year or two in the countryside. Besides, where can't you show your craft? ”

Li Xiangtian can't argue with his wife. I had to say: "Then we have to wait for a few days, and it will take some time to do the accounts that should be collected at the end of the year, the lists that others have ordered, and the ones that should be collected and postponed." ”

"Naturally, I won't delay you in business." Fu Peiyao glanced at her husband. That's what I said calmly. "The set of household goods that Lao Ma wanted, should be sent to others, right?"

Li Xiangtian patted his forehead: "It's time, I'll go." When I went out, I saw that the apprentices were waiting by the side, and the family had already loaded the donkey cart hired from the carriage shop. Li Xiangtian turned around and shook his wife to the ground: "There is Mrs. Lao." ”

"You're too sour sometimes." Fu Peiyao smiled and pouted him, "Go and come back quickly, don't delay dinner." ”

The donkey cart went out of the old alley all the way to the west, past an ancestral temple. Stop in front of a grand circular mansion. A few large cars were parked at the door, and a man dressed as a merchant was talking to the little man guarding the door. A short time later, a steward came out of the door, and led the merchant and the cart in. The end of the year is approaching, and the gatekeepers are also busy stealing, hiding in the sentry room under the gatehouse, there is a pot of coals in it, and some beef and mutton skewers are placed indiscriminately, and four of the six families on the door stay in it to drink wine and eat meat. Finally, it was Li Xiangtian's turn and the others, and after a while, the doorman raised his hand and let them go.

When I really entered the house, I realized that it was far more spacious than what I saw outside. There are also two layers of thick walls hidden inside, and the guards are much more powerful than those at the gate. The car was finally stopped on the third floor, and they were not allowed to enter, saying that they were to be carried in by their master and apprentice. The elementary school apprentice was uncharacteristically a little overbearing: "Do you understand?" Have you ever seen sandalwood? Can two people lift? You lift one up and I'll take a look. ”

The guy didn't talk to him, and as soon as the hand holding the knife was raised, the snowy blade showed a little: "If you want to ask, ask it!" ”

Li Xiangtian looked at the big car in front of him, sighed lightly, and then turned his head and asked, "This big brother, is there something going on in the courtyard?" ”

Seeing that Li Xiangtian was dressed simply, his aura was quite good, and he didn't dare to be too lazy: "How can we know so much? The steward said that if you go to work, you have to go to work. Who doesn't want to have a good rest during the Chinese New Year? It's not that I deliberately make things difficult for the two of you, but if it's a cattle cart, you won't be allowed to enter. Even people have to be searched three or five times. ”

"Their carts ignore the rules?" Li Xiangtian rolled up his sleeves and said, "Their car plate is not light. ”

The housekeeper heard what the carpenter said, and he also looked back a few times: "It's all explained from above, I just let it go." He shrugged, "No way. ”

Li Xiangtian smiled and said nothing, and a friendly fat man walked out quickly, and when he saw the man, he lowered his hand and said, "Take care of things!" ”

The fat man took out a handkerchief from his sleeve and wiped his sweat, and without looking at the family, he grabbed Li Xiangtian's hand: "Xiangtian, it's all because I didn't explain it clearly to them, don't take it to heart." ”

"How so." Li Xiangtian smiled.

"Have you checked it all? No problem. The fat man asked the family.

"Checked, no problem." The family replied very simply.

"Release." The fat man waved his hand, and without looking too much, several servants came over and took the whip of the young apprentice, and drove the car into the courtyard.

"We're talking in the house, we haven't seen each other for a long time, and we're thinking about it." The fat man pulled Li Xiangtian and walked in.

The apprentice bowed his head and did not move: "It's okay, I'll go back." ”

"Back to what?" The fat man didn't stop, and there was a majesty in his words, "You come in too." ”

The apprentice didn't say a word to himself, and followed him past the sentry. Leaving a housekeeper standing in the cold wind, he couldn't figure out what the two carpenters were.

The fat steward let the two of them into a newly renovated room and sat down. Li Xiangtian looked around, pushed the door and hung two marquee lanterns, facing the small bridge and flowing water. There were a few white drawings of mountains and rivers in the room, and a pot of rice wine was warmed on the stove, and the warmth rushed over.

"Old horse, it's getting more and more generous." Li Xiangtian was not polite at all, poured three glasses of wine, and drank one glass.

"Was about to talk to you about this." The fat man smiled and narrowed his eyes, turned his head to the junior apprentice and said, "There are a few drawers of snacks in the closet, bring them over to Mr. Li to taste." ”

When the junior apprentice saw that there was no one left and right, he was presumptuous: "Dad, you allow me to rest." Roasted by the fire dragon in this underground bunk, the bones are soft. ”

"Too lazy to talk! How can there be a star and a half of what I was back then. "This fat man's name is Ma Youcai, and he is the steward of the mansion of the Xiang family of the Ryukyu clan, and he also has some status in Shouli.

"This kid is very good among young people." Li Xiangtian said.

"Then sit down first." Ma Youcai scolded his son, "There is a sitting appearance!" Mr. Li's demeanor, why can't you learn it in one percent. ”

"I'm a craftsman, what kind of style can I talk about?" Li Xiangtian's face did not change, "Brother Ma doesn't have something to say?" ”

"Exactly." Ma Youcai poured a full wine for Li Xiangtian, "Zigui, a few things you played last month, my family gave a thumbs up after seeing the adults." It's always a few days after the year, you see, a lot of money is coming to the door. ”

"That's what Lord Xiang said?"

"Hmm." Ma Youcai raised his palms and said, "The people who can make my family praise the adults can be counted with two hands in this Shouli City." ”

"Brother Ma is too righteous!" Li thanked Tiankou in his mouth, but he had other plans in his heart. (To be continued......)
