Xu Shiqiu didn't know that the little lady in the family was thinking about him going back and having another son with him.

Today is the first assessment of the new army, and for the three-month deadline agreed with Ruikangdi before, Xu Shiqiu is ready to take three assessments.

In three assessments, a total of 500 people were selected to form a brigade. The remaining 1,000 men were also divided into two brigades, one for the secondary and the other for the auxiliaries.

Because Xu Shiqiu had already planned, at the beginning of today, he stood on the school field with a stiff face and looked at the soldiers waiting for the assessment.

And because his movements here are not small, other generals in the barracks also arranged for people to come to watch.

Xu Shiqiu didn't let people drive them away, his training method was left by his father, and many people in this military camp do, so there is nothing to hide.

Although this assessment method is slightly different from what his father taught him, after all, they are all assessments, the methods are different, and the purpose is the same.

However, before the assessment, Xu Shiqiu still stood at the top and lectured to the soldiers below.

"Soldiers, I will be ordered by the Holy One to train new soldiers. The Holy Lord gave Ben General three months, but Ben Jiang thought that you were all outstanding and hard-working people. It doesn't take three months at all to meet the requirements of this general. However, this general Guaner and others have been a little slack in their training recently, and they have specially selected today and tomorrow as the first assessment. The first 200 people in the assessment will have their own rewards. And those who are not waiting for the assessment, in order not to drag other robes back, naturally need to increase their training. Do you still understand? ”

Xu Shiqiu looked at the more than 1,500 people under him, and as soon as he finished saying this, everyone under him said in unison: "Understand! ”

Listening to this deafening sound, Xu Shiqiu nodded with satisfaction.

The soldiers standing at the bottom also understood that although today was the first time to be assessed, there had already been rumors in the barracks that the general would select some outstanding people among them to award the centurion.

Although they were only centurions who were better than Wu Chang, they all understood that if they wanted to continue to climb up, it would naturally be better to take this step as soon as possible.

Xu Shiqiu looked at the changes in the faces of the people below, and knew that the gossip that he had let people spread had an effect.

Thinking about this, Xu Shiqiu looked at Ye Shuo and Liu Ze and the others who were waiting to record on the side, "You will record their assessment results separately later, if you want to try it yourself, just wait for the rest of the people to finish the assessment." ”

As soon as Xu Shiqiu finished speaking, Xu Jie couldn't wait to say: "Don't worry, general." After saying this, Xu Jie hurriedly looked at Zhang Ping beside him and glanced at him.

The four of them are different from Shi Yuan, Shi Yuan is old after all, and he only occasionally comes out for a walk together to exercise and exercise.

As for Ye Shuo, he is still young, and Liu Ze has always been a scholar before, so naturally he is not as good as Zhang Ping, who was born as a servant and is strong.

What's more, he can also feel that he is different from Zhang Ping, no matter how powerful Zhang Ping is, he is also a servant, and he will not be able to get rid of the status of a slave unless he has great merit in the future.

But he wasn't.

He is a civilian, and he is also Xu Shiqiu's brother, Xu Shiqiu wants to promote his deputy, and the first thing to consider will only be him.

Xu Shiqiu could also see Xu Jie's pride and eagerness, and he didn't stop him. As for whether he can come out on top among the soldiers, it also depends on his own strength.

In the barracks, Xu Shiqiu was busy watching the assessment of the soldiers, and from time to time he could find one or two good seedlings.

Of course, he will not put all his hopes on the top two hundred in the assessment, he will stare at the school field of the assessment, and he can also select a few soldiers who meet his eyes.

Xu Shiqiu was busy in the barracks for a busy day, and Dong Shu and a few people in Zhuangzi were very relaxed.

Zhuangzi was already much cooler than in the capital, and after the hottest time at noon, Dong Shu led Xu Nuanwen and Xu Yanzhu to the lake on Zhuangzi for a walk, and finally the servant woman carried a few freshly caught fish home.

With fresh fish and freshly picked vegetables from Zhuangzi, I can naturally make a lot of dishes tonight.

Because Xu Shiqiu said that he would be busy today and tomorrow when he left in the morning, Dong Shu followed Xu Nuanwen and Xu Yanzhu to relax after ensuring that Yuan Xi was full this night.

The three of them sat in the courtyard, eating side dishes and drinking honey wine and chatting about their hearts, which was quite interesting.

By the next day, all three of them had gotten up late.

Perhaps because of the coolness of Zhuangzi, Xu Nuanwen and Xu Yanzhu both felt that they slept more comfortably than they had slept in the capital before.

"Actually, last night's honey wine was good, it was the medicinal wine specially prepared for us by Dr. Du." said that it was medicinal wine, but in fact, she had seen the medicinal materials used to soak in wine, all of which were medicinal materials such as wolfberries and red dates for nourishing the body.

As soon as they heard Dong Shu's words, Xu Nuanwen and Xu Yanzhu were interested in this honey wine.

"Third aunt, do you still have honey wine here?" Xu Yanzhu talked about her heart for a while with honey wine last night, and she only felt relaxed all over, so she naturally wanted to get some honey wine and drink it slowly in the future.

As soon as Xu Yanzhu's words were finished, Dong Shu didn't have time to speak, Xu Nuanwen also nodded and asked Dong Shu if she still had honey wine.

"Yes, there are other fruit wines that I made while watching Dr. Du prepare the honey wine. Later, you can ask people to pick some and keep them for later. ”

These things were all made by Dr. Du when he was idle and bored after he first arrived in the capital.

Dong Shu was interested in these, and after she had the silver in her hand, she directly asked Zhuangzi to pick all kinds of fruits and make a lot of fruit wine.

Hearing Dong Shu's words, Xu Nuanwen and Xu Yanzhu were overjoyed.

It's not that the two of them can't afford these, it's just that these were made by Dong Shu herself after all, and they want to have this fun.

Because they heard that Dong Shu had made a lot of fruit wine with the servants before, and thinking that there were also a lot of fruits on the Zhuangzi now, Xu Nuanwen and Xu Yanzhu planned to get some of them themselves.

After Mrs. Xu knew what the three of them were going to do, she didn't say anything.

When they came to Zhuangzi, they were distracted, so they naturally came how happy they were.

Mrs. Xu didn't speak, and the three of them were naturally in charge of this Zhuangzi.

Xu Nuanwen and Xu Yanzhu were busy making fruit wine, but Dong Shu was going to prepare dinner tonight.

Although there are servants at home, Dong Shu also has to ask about the food, and then cook two dishes that Xu Shiqiu likes to eat.

Due to the hot weather, Dong Shu makes steamed vegetables or cold dishes, but although there is less oil smoke, after doing this, it still needs to be cleaned.

When Xu Shiqiu led Ye Shuo back, Dong Shu at home had just finished cooking and washed up again and changed into a set of clean and refreshing clothes.

As for Xu Nuanwen and Xu Yanzhu, who had been busy all afternoon, they also watched the servants send their brewed wine jars to Xu Yanzhu's Zhuangzi next door.

It's not that I don't worry about putting the fruit wine here, but after all, there are people coming and going here, so it's better for Xu Yanzhu to be quiet there.

Although the two of them made a lot of fruit wine, they were afraid that the news would spread, so they naturally needed to keep a low profile.

As soon as Xu Nuanwen saw Ye Shuo, her eyes were sour.

She is not a crying person, but she is a child raised by herself, and now she sees that although he has grown a little taller, he is really black and thin, and she is naturally distressed.

Ye Shuo also understood what was going on, so as soon as he saw her, he hurriedly got up and came to his side after saluting, and said obediently: "Mother, you must not be sad, if Dad knows that I made you cry, you should beat me." ”

As soon as Ye Shuo's words came out, Xu Nuanwen couldn't help but laugh directly.

"You kid, after going to the barracks for so many days, you still have such a detached temperament."

As Xu Nuanwen spoke, she also stretched out her hand and touched his head, and when she noticed that he was faintly taller than herself, she thought of what he looked like when he was a child.

Ye Xuan stood aside and watched his mother and second brother talking, in a hurry. I want to come over, but I'm afraid that my mother hasn't said good things to my second brother.

After Xu Nuanwen said a few more words to Ye Shuo, Ye Xuan found a gap and stepped forward and looked at the second brother seriously.

"Second brother, why are you so dark?" Ye Xuan is young, and he was a little delicate because of his previous frailty, so as soon as he saw his second brother, he said this sentence directly.

Ye Shuo was not unhappy because of his younger brother's words, he raised his hand and touched the flesh on his younger brother's face, and then spoke: "The second brother is now in the barracks with the third uncle, training in the open school field every day, and it will naturally be much darker. After saying this, Ye Shuo stared at his white and tender younger brother, and then continued: "Brother Xuan'er is now in better shape than before, although he can't join the army, but he can practice a set of boxing techniques every day. ”

As soon as Ye Shuo finished speaking, Ye Xuan looked at Xu Nuanwen on the side with bright eyes.

Xu Nuanwen also understood what Ye Shuo meant, practicing martial arts can indeed strengthen the body, and in the current situation of her young son, he can indeed practice a set of boxing techniques every day.

What's more, seeing him like this, I'm afraid he is also interested.

"This matter is not in a hurry in these two days, your father will come in two days, and then my mother will ask your father's opinion."

Although Xu Nuanwen has decided to let Ye Xuan practice martial arts, she also understands that she wants to save face for Ye Jingxing, and such a major matter about her son naturally has to be asked before it can be decided.

Xu Nuanwen was busy leading Ye Xuan and Ye Shuo to contact each other, and Dong Shu also told Xu Shiqiu about Jiang Han.

"Although my sister said that she would let her brother-in-law investigate, our Xu family can't ignore it."

As soon as Dong Shu finished saying this, Xu Shiqiu nodded at her.

"Don't worry, lady, I'll make people pay attention to this." After Xu Shiqiu looked at Dong Shu and said this, he saw that she looked happy, and hurriedly asked: "With my sister and Yanzhu here in the past two days, can the lady have fun?" ”

"Happy!" Dong Shu is not a person who will hide from Xu Shiqiu, as soon as he heard his inquiry, he told Xu Shiqiu everything about the past two days.

Xu Shiqiu didn't get angry after hearing Dong Shu's words, she pulled her sister and eldest niece to drink, in his eyes, her little lady should be so happy.

The family had a dinner, and after Mrs. Xu was a little tired and wanted to rest, Xu Nuanwen also led her two sons back to her yard.

Dong Shu also wanted to talk to Xu Shiqiu, so in the end, Xu Yanzhu could only go back to the courtyard by herself.

Even Cuihua was busy seeing her sister Lotus for the past two days, and she didn't wait by her side.

should have been a happy day, but on the way back to his yard, Xu Yanzhu felt very lonely, and just wanted to sigh that he really had a left-handed temperament and should not be like this, but a familiar figure suddenly appeared in front of him.
