Xue Shang frowned, and Zhang Xing thought that I seemed to have said the wrong thing. He obediently walked out and stood in the doorway and listened. What's wrong with Xue Shang This is, he came back from a trip and became preoccupied.

Zhang Xing left lightly. Xue Shang sat alone in the camp tent for a long time, and only got up to go home when it was almost dark.

Feng Jiao didn't come back, and the maid came to serve Xue Shang. The maids around him also have lovely faces. Generally, men in families have some statuses with three wives and four concubines, as long as they can afford to support them, it is a very normal thing.

Xue Shang lay on the bed, tossing and turning and couldn't sleep. simply put on his clothes and walked to the study.

In addition to having elite soldiers in hand, you must also have money, strong financial resources are the foundation, and military strength is the guarantee.

He is good at leading troops to fight, and he has never set foot in business. Xue Shang thought of Meng Wenliang and Shen Xuecai.

Early in the morning on Chinese New Year's Eve, Xue Shang came to his father-in-law's mansion. General Lee was exercising in the courtyard in the morning. Regarding the matter of Wei Xiang's son succeeding to Xue Shang. General Li did not reproach Xue Shang too much for not cooperating.

From a man's point of view, he understands Xue Shang. From a father's point of view, he feels sorry for his daughter. It's just that Mrs. Jia is blindly involved in the middle, and the more things are mixed up, the more chaotic they become.

Xue Shang stood under the pavilion, and General Li finished a complete set of boxing without distraction, and Xue Shang stepped forward respectfully and bowed to the Jiedu envoy.

"Father, son-in-law greets father-in-law. I wish my father a happy and prosperous New Year. ”

"Shang'er, Jiao'er has always been weak, and she is here to serve your mother-in-law. You also have to care more about Jiao'er. ”

"Father-in-law taught me. It's just that the son-in-law is preparing to go to the barracks and the soldiers to celebrate Chinese New Year's Eve. They are also children, parents, and cannot have a family reunion, so the son-in-law does his best to comfort the soldiers. ”

"Shang'er, you don't think about the love of children, as a festival, I appreciate your approach. But as a father, as your father-in-law, I feel sorry for Jiao'er. As a father, you are not sure whether to support you or to thwart you. ”

"Father-in-law, son-in-law farewell."

Xue Shang came early, and his mother-in-law and Feng Jiao hadn't gotten up yet. Xue Shang just came here with this time period. He really didn't want to face his mother-in-law's eyebrows and his wife's tears.

General Li knew Xue Shang's little abacus, and he didn't break it, okay, he couldn't see it. "Okay, there you go. The father-in-law explained to their mother and daughter. ”

Xue Shang made a ninety-degree bend and left the Li Mansion. He and the guards went to the bazaar to pull a few carts of fine wine and sent them to the barracks.

Zhang Xing has a wife and children at home, and he is happy to have Meng and Shen manage chores for him. He did not expect that Xue Shang would not be at home to accompany his wife and go to the barracks for Chinese New Year's Eve.

Zhang Xing was late to the third pole, and the soldiers were in good order, some cleaned the barracks, some decorated the barracks, and some arranged tables, chairs, and dishes.

The wine in the camp was fragrant, and the fragrant food wafted into the nose at a distance. Zhang Xing greeted the soldiers all the way, "Happy New Year, Happy New Year!" ”

Zhang Xing opened his mouth and stammered, with a gloomy handsome face in front of him, "Soldier and horse envoy, why are you here?" ”

Xue Shang shouted and asked, "Are you on duty today?" ”

Zhang Xing saw that Xue Shang's face was not good, and he didn't dare to argue for himself anymore, "The soldiers and horses are on duty, and they are subordinates on duty." ”

Xue Shang asked Meng Wenliang, "How to punish leaving the post without authorization?" ”

Meng Wenliang replied loudly: "If you leave your post without permission, you will be punished with twenty canes." ”

Xue Shang was unrelenting, "Pull it down, and the rod will be punished for twenty." "Love me

The soldier pleaded with Xue Shang, "Soldiers and horses, the captain is dutiful, and today's Chinese New Year's Eve is excusable." The soldiers and horses raised their noble hands and put Captain Zhang a yard. ”

Meng Wenliang and Shen Xuecai did not speak from beginning to end. Xue Shang just wanted to attack the people around him in order to establish military prestige, and properly collided with Zhang Xing.

Xue Shang took the knife himself, Zhang Xing came to a stubborn temper, and shouted, "I am willing to accept the punishment for doing something wrong, you don't have to beg him." ”

The soldiers in charge of the punishment were merciful, listening to the sound of movement, and it was extremely measured when it fell on him.

Xue Shang gave Meng Wenliang a few bottles of good gold sore medicine, and Meng Wenliang personally led someone to send Zhang Xing home. He was also given a few jars of good wine, a pig, a sheep, and a cow.

Xianglan and her children are at home, and an old mother is hired at home. Zhang Xing went out and turned back, stood and walked when he went out, and when he came back, he was lying down and was carried back.

Zhang Xing's injuries did not hurt his muscles and bones, but only skin injuries, Xianglan lifted her clothes and pants, and saw that she was swollen and bruised, and her flesh and blood were blurred.

Xianglan howled and cried, Zhang Xing opened his eyes and scolded angrily: "You are mourning for the New Year, Lao Tzu is living well." ”

Xianglan wiped away her tears, "Xianggong, you woke up, who beat you like this?" I'll go to Miss and ask you for an explanation. ”

Zhang Xing glared at her, "I'm fine, you can save it, I'll be fine in three or five days." ”

Xianglan didn't give up, "Whoever beats you, as long as the master doesn't beat you, no one else can do it." I asked the young lady to clean them up. ”

Zhang Xing closed his eyes and ignored her. Meng Wenliang led the soldiers to leave. Back at the barracks, the feast had begun.

Xue Shang asked Meng Wenliang and Shen Xuecai to sit beside him. "The first cup, to our family, we bear the heavy responsibility of guarding the frontier, and we can't be filial piety by our parents' side. But we are doing our best for our country. ”

The soldiers shouted, "To our father and mother." ”

The sound of clanging against a dish. The large amount of alcohol dried up, and the small amount of alcohol took a big sip. On the table, there are large bowls and plates containing three animals and five animals, chickens, ducks, geese, pigs, horses, cattle and sheep.

It is rare for the soldiers to have a hearty drink on weekdays, and the wine and meat are abundant. The table is full of chicken, duck and fish, and there is enough wine to drink casually in a jar.

Xue Shang waited for the soldiers to eat vegetables to cushion their stomachs, and then raised his glass and said, "Today's Chinese New Year's Eve is goodbye to the old and welcomes the new." Brethren can drink freely today. The second cup is to our wives and children. It is their silent support behind us that makes us have no worries. ”

The soldiers shouted, "To our wives and children." "It was the sound of clinking dishes again.

Here, Xue Shang and the soldiers celebrated Chinese New Year's Eve. The Chinese New Year's Eve of the Li Mansion over there was very deserted. The eldest son was sick in bed, and the eldest son's daughter-in-law admitted that she was at a loss, and she was embarrassed to see her in-laws again.

The second son and daughter-in-law sit in a small confinement and are not suitable for travel. The second son resents his sister-in-law and accompanies his parents for the New Year, and his spirit cannot be raised.

The festival made the lady beat her spirits and got up from the bed. Feng Jiao stayed with her mother, and when she arrived at the main hall, she saw that Xue was not yet in place. When I feel wronged, tears are about to rise.

The mother was ill and unwell, Feng Jiao held back her tears, and the nurse hugged Xue Yu to attend the family banquet. The little guy is innocent and in a good mood.

The little guy has meaty arms and legs, big eyes and a round face, which is very likable. General Lee took his grandson, and the little guy tugged at his beard and didn't let go.

General Li glared at his grandson and frightened him: "Dare to spread wild on the head of the Jiedu envoy, it is not a small courage." ”

The little guy was shocked by his authority, and pouted to cry, "Niangniang," and in a hurry, he would call his mother. This mother called Feng Jiao so much, and her heart was so warm.
