Li Zhou has a flaw, the power of the maternal clan is almost equal to nothing, but the advantage is that he will not be governed by the maternal clan, he can retreat if he wants to, but Li Yi can't, with the rich family behind him, it is not that he can retreat if he wants to, which is still a matter of interests entangled in the long-term vision.

Li Zhou lived in Zhuangzi for a few days, chatting and playing with Wang, learning farming, and his mind was much more down-to-earth than before.

Li Chengze came, Wang saluted and smiled and retreated, he left Li Zhou behind, and wanted to test the homework of the three children in the school.

This time, the three brothers answered well, Brother Lian was a one-size-fits-all person, but Brother Qian's and Li Zhou's questions about being examined were very tricky.

Li Zhou replied seriously, it is indeed good, these days I have seriously thought about my future path, my mind has settled down a lot, and I am also serious about agricultural affairs, so I answered.

Li Chengze's face softened a lot, "Well, the answer is good, you have to read hard, don't look down on the old farmer, you don't necessarily understand if he knows."

Food is the foundation of the country, the most important thing, I don't ask you to farm, but at least you can't distinguish between wheat seedlings and grass. ”

"Yes, my son has recently consulted with the tenant farmers, and he has indeed learned a lot, and this trip is worth it."

Li Zhou's heart was settled, and his performance was also generous, he also figured it out, is it really a road to the dark, and the mother and son are tied up to die together, is it worth it?

The eldest brother finally has a rich family to support him and doesn't end well, and he doesn't even have a mother's family, so what is there to fight for.

"Well, yes, you're a lot more sensible. Next year's draft will give you a daughter-in-law, and it will be solid to set the name. Don't let your mother worry about you. ”

Li Chengze is not light, don't focus on his son, don't toss back and forth, my patience is limited.

"Yes, it's up to my father."

Li Zhou doesn't have too many ideas, he can marry anyone, he can't be the master of this, it's useless to think too much.

"Well, your mother's clan is not rich in power, marry you a high-ranking girl, it will help you enter the court in the future, you have to treat others well, don't put on a show."

"Yes, son, remember."

Li Zhou was very happy and warm when he heard his father's words, but in fact, his father had them in his heart, and he was not blindly partial.

"Brother Qian, you want to be two years late, and your queen mother will let you marry later, and you won't be allowed to have people in the room, which will be bad for you to practice."

"It's the queen mother who has repeatedly explained, and the son doesn't dare to forget."

"Hmm."

Li Chengze nodded.

He accompanied Huilan to live in Zhuangzi for four or five days, and then returned to the palace with his sons, leaving the two to play in Zhuangzi for a few more days.

It was getting cold, Sister Xin came back, she was very neat in her outfit, and she came to Huangzhuang to visit Huilan for the first time.

Sister Xin stood at the door and shouted to Huilan in the house, "Queen Mother, my daughter is back." ”

Huilan turned her head and threw away the leaf card in her hand, stood up and looked at her daughter, and her eyes were hazy with tears.

Stepping forward quickly, Sister Xin strode forward and threw herself into her arms.

"Mother, I miss you so much."

"My Sister Xin, let me see, it has changed, why is it black and thin, I have suffered a lot."

Hui Lan smelled blood on Sister Xin, and she killed someone.

Tears couldn't help but fall, her daughter has an iron-blooded and resolute temperament, and she has experienced a lot in the past three years.

Sister Xin touched her face and smiled happily, "Mother, I'm fine, you see I'm very good, I've lived very fast all these years, really fast, thank you!" ”

"It's good if you're happy, if you're happy."

Huilan doesn't ask about the past or experience, as long as her daughter is happy, it's enough.

"Oops! You mother and daughter sit down and talk, go and serve the princess a cup of hot tea, don't be stunned, go and prepare some good dishes, and the mother and daughter will have a drink in the evening." ”

Wang smiled.

Huilan pulled her daughter to sit down, and when she saw that her hands had become rough, she couldn't help but shed tears in distress.

"The wind blows, it's fine, it's out of the way. Mother, are you still healthy? ”

Sister Xin leaned on Hui Lan's arms and smiled to comfort her mother.

"I'm fine, you."

"Very good, I went to a lot of places, opened my eyes and gained knowledge, and then I heard that the situation in the northwest was a little twists and turns, so I went to find my uncle, became his escort, ate meat and drank wine with those soldiers, went to guard the frontier together, and killed the enemy with blood, I am very down-to-earth and happy."

Sister Xin has found her own meaning in life, although her skin is dark and thick, her eyes are bright and bright like jewels, shining, full of sunshine and hope.

Hui Lan couldn't hold back her tears, "My child, you have chosen the most difficult path." ”

"It's not difficult, I'm willing to eat it. They go straight and don't hide their eyes, and I'm happy with them. ”

Sister Xin opened her mind in the vast northwest, and saw the broadness and heaviness of the northwest people, and she lived very happily there.

"Are you still going?"

Huilan was very distressed.

"I'm going, but I'll stay for a while, I want to raise food and grass and military uniforms to take with me."

Sister Xin's eyes were smiling, and her face was full of radiant confidence, which had indeed changed.

"Okay, then you go, I know I can't stop you, you can leave and tell me later, I'll make you more medicine and take it away."

"Thank you, Queen Mother."

Sister Xin lay on her lap and cried with a whimper, some grievances that she couldn't tell her mother, she didn't want her to worry, she just wanted to vent her emotions, that's all.

"Write to me if you miss me. What about your marriage? ”

Hui Lan smiled again when she remembered this.

"Give me two more years, when Brother Hao grows up, Brother Lobby can also share the courage of the uncle, I will come back to accompany you and marry with peace of mind."

Sister Xin knows what she wants and what she should do, and she can afford it and put it down.

"Okay, okay."

Hui Lan tilted her head and took a deep breath and swallowed back her tears.

"Let's go back to the palace after you rest for a few days, and I'll help you take care of your body."

"Okay, Queen Mother, help my maids take a look, they are not less injured with me, and they really don't embarrass me."

Sister Xin only brought back six maids, and two of them died on the battlefield in the northwest.

"Okay, don't worry, your mother will definitely raise you strong."

In the next few days, Sister Xin and her party were conditioning their bodies, Li Chengze came to see Sister Xin and went back, the father and daughter talked earnestly alone, Huilan didn't know what they said.

But Li Chengze promised Sister Xin to go to the northwest, but said that she would not get any military merits. Sister Xin readily agreed.

Brother Qian stood outside Sister Xin's house for a long time, and suddenly he could understand Li Qi's sour thoughts, and for the first time he had a strong desire to fight.

My sister is in the northwest for their brother, and for him, this will add a lot of chips to him, but my sister will not do any good, but she will pay a lot.

In the end, Brother Qian didn't say anything, just went out of the palace frequently to help Sister Xin raise food and herbs, and did something silently.
