Chapter 175

After that, no matter what Xu San's expression was, he scolded the soldiers who were gossiping around him, and went straight to Zhang Manho's tent. [No pop-ups. 】

Let's say that at this time, a woman in a military uniform, although she is heroic, but it is difficult to hide her delicate appearance and graceful posture, and she is approaching the camp tent of the protector general with joy and hope.

When she first arrived, she hadn't looked at the black-faced general. Although his father is a good military general with five big and three coarse, several generations of military attachés of the Xiong family are all characters of Jane in the emperor's heart, which shows the depth of his heritage. And how could the daughter of the Xiong family, who had such a background, put a person who was born with mud legs and became a general just by luck by killing the King of the Huns?

But as I saw Zhang Manchu, I saw that his whole body was hard in pain, but he didn't say a word. The momentum is enough to convince people. Later, he fought against the remnants of the Huns several times, and he defeated many dead soldiers with the strength of one person. She thinks she can be literate and martial, and if she wants to come in the hands of the general, she can't pass a move and a half. Therefore, the original contempt has become full of respect.

And what she didn't know was that General Xiong, who had always been the most concerned about his daughter and had made great achievements in the court, was now also moved by his thoughts. In his life, he had only one daughter and no other children. As a military general, he wants his daughter to marry a brave man, and now Zhang Manchu is from a bad background, but he is already a general. In that case, who can say that he is not worthy of the daughter of the Xiong family?

In fact, as a fierce general under the command of His Royal Highness King Rui and a person trusted by the emperor, when he secretly helped King Rui, how could he not inquire about the background of Zhang Manchu, a rising star? Therefore, he naturally knew that Zhang Manchu also had a wife in his hometown. But fortunately, there were no heirs, and the wife was a merchant, so she gave a little more silver and a little benefit, so she naturally sent it away.

Therefore, he is now begging to King Rui, hoping that King Rui can make the decision and marry his concubine to Zhang Manho.

If His Royal Highness King Rui had never been to Taoxi County and had not valued Peach Tree Village, he might still consider it. But now, he not only values the development of Peachtree Village, but also cares about what Peachtree Village will become under the subtle ideas of Yilin Baozhu. So at this juncture, it is naturally impossible for him to agree to General Xiong at will.

What's more, although King Rui has the intention to control Zhang Manho, he also knows that that reckless man can be used but not controlled. And his weakness is his wife at home, if he marries himself, I am afraid that not only will he not be able to do what he wants, but he will also lose a fierce general.

In the world, there are not only Chen Shimei, who is ungrateful in the playbook, but also a loyal and good man.

Of course, Zhang Manchu and Xiong Yulin didn't know about these things.

A rugged man dressed in black clothes and black armor with a scruffy beard was looking at the small place in Taoxi County on the drawings at this time, and then silently guessed in his heart where Peach Tree Bay should be. Thinking of Peachtree Bay, the grim expression on his face couldn't help but soften, and he didn't know what his daughter-in-law was doing now, whether she was playing with the eldest girl or making tea.

Thinking of the last time Xu San said that his daughter-in-law asked him to remember to bring more letters back, he couldn't help frowning. He also wanted to carry the letter, but he was about to go back, and second, he was seriously injured a few days ago, and he didn't know how to tell his daughter-in-law. Let's put it lightly, the daughter-in-law will find out in the future, and she will have to lose her temper with him, although he is quite rare when the daughter-in-law plays a small temperament, but if it makes the daughter-in-law feel uncomfortable or worried, it will not be good. But if it is too serious, the daughter-in-law will be scared again, and maybe she will have to come to Beiling if she loses her temper.

This is over the mountains and mountains, and the road is dangerous, if she really comes, she must not worry about dying by herself.

In addition, looking for Zhu Neng to ghostwrite, he can always make the family letters he writes boiling, which is really hateful. So after coming and going, he thought that he would simply wait for a few days when the army would be drawn out, and he would take his six sons back in person.

When Zhang Manchu was thinking about his daughter-in-law, he suddenly heard a woman outside the camp open her mouth to report to her soldiers. His heart was at ease, and his face condensed and stiffened again.

His tent was supposed to be the most serious place in the camp, and whoever came here was to be informed, and if he came too close, he would be regarded as a scheming interrogation. But she is different, Xiong Yulin is different, she is not a soldier in the army, and she also has a life-saving kindness to him, plus she has the face of General Xiong, but it is not good to directly make people lose face.

Although he didn't like her excessive eagerness and concern, he couldn't say anything at all. First, if you talk too much, it will ruin people's reputation. Second, he didn't want to provoke right and wrong again when the army returned to Beijing.

After a little thought in his heart, he let Xiong Yulin enter the door. was supposed to be a sassy woman, but when she saw the general standing with her hands in the camp tent and her waist straight and wide, her heart suddenly rippled, although she didn't show much shyness on her face, but the friendship in her eyes was real.

Zhang Manchu was already tall, and standing on the edge of Xiongyu Forest at this time, he was even more brave and strong. However, he didn't have any thoughts of pity for the jade, and when he saw people approaching, he instinctively took three or five steps back sideways to stand up.

When he was injured before, he couldn't refuse the woman's approach for various reasons, but now that he can stand on the ground, how can he still allow a woman with other thoughts to approach him? Even if he didn't say anything, he knew that Xiong Yulin's eyes had changed, so he would never give people any possibility.

Not to mention anything else, Zhang Manchu's cautious eye for his daughter-in-law is very clear, if it is really because he didn't say it clearly, he gave people an opportunity to take advantage of, I am afraid that the daughter-in-law will be angry. As for the rest, he didn't expect to rely on the deep foundation of the Xiong family to achieve his deeds, and second, he didn't think that there was a woman in the world who would be better than his daughter-in-law.

"Xiong Xiǎo Jiě, now that the war is over, my injuries have healed by seven or eight points, presumably General Xiong also misses you a lot in Beiling City." Zhang Manchu stood still, his tone was indifferent and cold, and his demeanor was as solemn as he always showed to her, "I asked people to send Xiǎo Jiě back to the city, and if I have the opportunity to go to Peachtree Bay in the future, I will personally hold a banquet with Humble Jing to thank you." ”

Don't say anything about saving your life, and don't say anything about why you should let her see yourself since she didn't have any intention for her that day. You must know that when Xiong Yulin was initially promised to be treated closely, it was not that Zhang Manchu really trusted her. It's just the will of His Royal Highness King Rui, plus General Xiong's many persuasions. What's more, he promised his daughter-in-law that he would go back alive, if he only hurt the root for the sake of men and women, and let his daughter-in-law be lonely for half her life in the future, how could he bear it?

Xiong Yulin was indifferent, the general didn't say anything to embarrass her, and even the whole person was still as plain and indifferent as usual, as if he didn't know his own mind. But as transparent as her, how could she not understand the rejection and irrefutable decision in the general's words?

In fact, she should have figured it out a long time ago, after all, no matter how much she cared about it, the general could ignore it. It was she who was self-inflicted, and she also added trouble to the generals. I learned from the general's confidant brother that although the general's wife in her hometown is not noble, she is an excellent person, and more importantly, she treats the general wholeheartedly.

How could such a woman be willing to serve a husband with others? Rao is a general is a man who stands up to the sky, and he can't do it if he wants to.

Thinking of this, Xiong Yulin was silent for a moment, and then as if he didn't know what was going on, he smiled calmly: "What the general said is very true, my father also sent someone to inquire earlier, and now it is not good to delay any longer." ”

She is the daughter of the Xiong family, even if she is a noble girl in Beijing, she has some status. Although I admired and admired the general in my heart, I would not be unable to let go of the entanglement. Originally, she was not the person the general had in mind, not to mention that she couldn't let her live with that woman.

Thinking of this, she became more and more frank, "Although the general's body is no longer in serious trouble, but in the end, this serious injury is fundamentally injured, and if you want to go to the battlefield again in the future, you must think a lot." ”

Zhang Manchu saw that she was like this for a woman, and he also had some respect in his heart. After thinking about it, he made an exception and said in a relaxed tone: "The reason why I joined the army and made meritorious contributions is secondary, mainly so that my wife at home can rely on it. ”

Seeing that Zhang Manchu took the initiative to mention Lin Baozhu, and his expression was obviously different, Xiong Yulin really understood that this man was not something she could remember. Thinking of this, she couldn't help but straighten her spine, her eyes calmed down, and she no longer had the intention of twisting and wanting to say goodbye.

She respectfully hoarded a blessing salute at Zhang Man, and then said a few words of advice in a proper manner, and then turned around and left the tent.

At this time, the six sons, who were eavesdropping outside, were sneaked in by Zhang Manchu. Seeing that his eldest brother had no bad conscience, the sixth son, who had been worried since he saw Xiong Yulin enter the camp, finally put his mind at ease.

Seeing the big brother's dark face, he hurriedly smiled and said flatteringly: "Big brother, I'm going back in a few days, and I don't know what my sister-in-law will cook for us." After so long in Northridge, that beak is about to fade out of the smell of birds."

It wasn't a big deal, not to mention, Zhang Manchu had long known that the sixth son was very convinced of his daughter-in-law. So when I saw him gag, I didn't mention anything to reprimand him.

What they didn't know was that when General Xiong saw his daughter at this time, he saw that although she didn't say anything, she was a little disappointed on her face, and she was very distressed in her heart. He is a big old man, he has always spoken with his fists, and when he encountered his daughter's affairs, the whole person turned into a finger twister.

But although he has a hearty personality and doesn't have much in mind, it doesn't mean that he can't see anything. After all, he was on an errand in front of the emperor, and he could be implicated with King Rui in private, how could such a person be stupid?
