Chapter 664: Back-to-Back Partners

Xie Shurou got the letter and immediately threw Gu Yilan aside, she held the letter as if she was holding a baby, sat on the chair happily, and carefully opened the letter and read it.

She carefully read Mu Hongsheng's letter over and over again, Gu Yilan waited for her for a long time, and when she looked endless, she couldn't help but stretch out a hand to cover the letter: "Okay, this letter is for you, you can take it home and read it slowly." ”

"Of course I know it's for me." Xie Shurou carefully folded the letter paper, stuffed it back into the envelope, and then carefully stuffed the envelope into her arms: "It's still my little red dress cute, you always think about me, and remember to write a letter to me to report safety." Red Dress really likes me the most. ”

"Okay, you," Gu Yilan rolled her eyes unbearably: "Can you not be stupid." Is it okay for the red dress to write to you by the way? Incidentally! ”

"That's what you are jealous of." Xie Shurou said: "Naked jealousy. ”

"I'm jealous of something, and the red dress has a letter to me." Gu Yilan was angry: "I'm her sister-in-law, what are you doing as an outsider?" ”

"Show off!" Xie Shurou pursed her lips: "It's the sister-in-law, what's the matter?" Forget it, if I don't fight with you, everyone in your family is safe, right? ”

"Hmm." Gu Yilan nodded: "You have also seen that Hongsheng's letter was sent from Shuozhou, and the fourth uncle and second brother also came back with a letter to report safety." ”

"Where's your husband?" Xie Shurou asked, "Didn't you come back with a letter?" ”

"He's in Yanzhou," Gu Yilan shook her head: "The messenger is from Shuozhou, so ...... But he's fine, Hongsheng said in the letter, he's fine. Hongshang will go to Yanzhou in a few days, and she will be able to see him. ”

"Hmm." Xie Shurou answered absentmindedly, then frowned, clasped her hands to her chest, and said after a long time: "You are a father-in-law, won't you be as stubborn as Little Grandpa Mu?" The letter said that she quarreled with her brother about going to war all day long. After General Zhenguo set off for Danzhou, she was imprisoned in General Shuobei's Mansion, and General Shuobei and Little Master Mu did not allow her to wear battle armor, nor did she follow the patrol. ”

"I think that's good," Gu Yilan was silent for a moment before replying, "At least I can rest assured." Red Dress is the only girl in our family, and my husband is willing to let his only sister go to war. ”

"Gu Yilan, I said it, let you learn to respect other people's ideas." Xie Shurou frowned and replied, "You know very well what Hongshang's wish is. She wants to be able to protect her family. She worked hard to go all the way to the north, but she was locked up in the General's Mansion, what is this tossing? What is the difference between being locked up in the Northern General's Mansion and being locked up in the back house of your Anguo Mansion?! ”

"I know what Red Clothes thinks, but I'm ...... I also want to protect the red clothes! Gu Yilan argued: "Hongshang is a girl after all, and she has no eyes on the battlefield, she ......"

"So you chose to respect your husband's wishes instead of the red-robed one, right?" Xie Shurou asked, "Gu Yilan, have you always believed that Hongshang has the ability to be a general?" ”

"No, my little sister is very powerful, I know." Gu Yilan immediately shook her head and refused to admit Xie Shurou's accusations.

"So you actually know that we Hongshang didn't go to the battlefield on impulse with a hot head," Xie Shurou said: "She is not pretentious, and she does not think highly of her own ability. On the contrary, her desire is precisely because she has a correct understanding of her own abilities. She doesn't want to be a famous general who will go down in history, she just wants to protect her family on the battlefield. That's what she's capable of doing, and if she has the opportunity to do it, she can do it. ”

"Of course I know that." Gu Yilan frowned.

"Then why do you still think that Little Master Mu is right to lock her up?" Xie Shurou asked reluctantly: "She went all the way to the north just to protect her relatives on the battlefield, you know it." Could it be that because she is a girl, her ideas are not worthy of respect?

"But I ......" Gu Yilan was silent for a moment, then got up from her chair and paced around the room irritably: "But...... Wouldn't you be worried? Aren't you afraid of the dangers of the red dress on the battlefield? The sword has no eyes on the battlefield, don't you care about her safety? How do you ...... You ......"

"Of course I care, I'm scared. I wish I could let her stay in the capital, be safe, and play with me every day. Xie Shurou stood up, grabbed Gu Yilan's arm, and stared at her seriously: "But Gu Yilan, then I'm happy, will Hongshang be happy?" Red Dress is an independent person, she doesn't live for us, just like the definition of happiness in your heart can't be applied to me, and we can't force Red Dress to live in the 'safe way' we want to live in order to reassure ourselves. That's not love, it's kidnapping in the name of love, you know? Don't say it's all 'for her good', if it's for her good, you should control yourself and learn to respect her." ”

Gu Yilan looked at Xie Shurou's eyes, trembling her lips and didn't speak for a long time, before she responded with a crying voice: "Hmm." I...... I try my best. ”

"I know you're not easy." Xie Shurou comforted Gu Yilan for the first time: "Your father-in-law was born and died on the battlefield, you were frightened, but you couldn't tie him up at home, so you had to force yourself to respect his choice." Now that it's a red dress again, you still have to force yourself to accept the choice of a red dress. Gu Yilan, it's really not easy, you've worked hard. ”

"I'm not alone." Gu Yilan was silent for a long time before replying: "The women of the Mu family are all bitter. So in fact, I can understand Hongsheng, she has the ability, there is no need to be like me, watching her relatives live and die on the battlefield, but I can't do anything for them. ”

"Okay, don't be sad, when Rong Di retires, you will be able to come back." Xie Shurou pulled Gu Yilan back to sit back on the chair, she held her cheek with one hand, and still had a sad face: "Now think about how to help Hongshang." Our red clothes are really unlucky, as soon as we arrived in the north, we were locked up in the Shuobei General's Mansion. ”

"Fourth Uncle, I can't speak." Gu Yilan sighed: "Hongshang is locked up in the Shuobei General's Mansion...... Why don't I go back and find out what my grandmother and aunt think. ”

"It's fine." Xie Shurou nodded: "I always feel that your grandmother is not an ordinary person, and I may be able to understand Hongshang's thoughts." ”
