I can't help but say that although Uncle Ai is just the head of the Yan family, he has a broad vision, and the head of an ordinary big family, even the master, cannot be compared with him.

All my previous assumptions were seen through by him once in Jiujiang.

Indeed, the people who stopped Pei Yuanxiu at the beginning tried to retain Shen Xiaokun's strength as much as possible, and then recommended Wei Ningyuan to go to Jiujiang to meet Shen Xiaokun, so that they could meet each other and manage the forces near Jiujiang, and they did have the consideration of preparing for the overall situation in the future. I didn't think about who I wanted to help or who to suppress, but when I really started a war, it was wrong to help anyone, and it was right to save anyone. I just want to get as few people involved as possible in the fighting, so that the spread of the war is as little as possible and as slow as possible.

The common people are the real victims of war, and those who hold great power should not talk about war lightly.

At this time, I asked softly, "Susu, are you willing to stay?" ”

She looked at me with wide eyes, was silent for a long time, and then stood up and gave me a deep blessing: "May it be sent by the eldest lady." ”

I hurriedly reached out to help her up, and saw that she was young and childish, but her eyes were already a little twilight, and my heart was sour, and I secretly made up my mind that I must treat Uncle Ai's granddaughter well!

Unexpectedly, although I was determined to treat Su Su well to compensate for her childhood loss, and now I have lost my only relative, lonely, I didn't expect that if I left her, she must be to take care of me.

After finishing the dojo in Qishan Village, on the first day she returned home, she rolled up her sleeves and cleaned up the house inside and out, I had already received a large gift from Uncle Ai, and the money was relatively relaxed, and she gave Su Su a little money, and she basically replaced the furniture.

Although this is a bit of a big deal, it is true that the collection in the house is a lot more organized, and the goods piled up on the small bed outside have also been specially invited by her to have a small house next to the inner room, as a warehouse for packing up goods and embroidery racks and other tools that are not usually used.

In the morning, Li'er and I were still asleep, and this girl had already gotten up and gone to the small kitchen to be busy, and when I heard the sound go out, there was already steaming shredded chicken porridge on the table, as well as all kinds of side dishes.

What a good girl!

I was so surprised that I walked out and said, "You did all this?!" ”

"Yes. Miss, I don't know the taste of you and Miss Sun, so I made some casually. If you like something, tell me again, and I'll do it later. ”

I couldn't help but sigh: "You're working too hard like this." ”

Su Su put down a plate of side dishes and said, "Grandpa often says, what kind of people, what kind of hard work. ”

I was stunned.

This sentence is simple, but it contains a lot of truth. Just like everyone has their own life, their own experience, and their own Shura field.

If she doesn't work so hard, there will be other hardships, and life is like this.

Thinking of this, I also smiled, just as Li'er also got up and finished washing, saw a table of dishes, immediately happily climbed on the stool, just picked up the bowl, and suddenly raised his little nose and sniffed: "Mmmm, what a smell, so fragrant!" ”

Su Su said: "Miss Sun, it's walnut cheese for you." ”

"Walnut cheese! It's been a long time! ”

Su Su said: "I'm afraid it's almost better." I went to look at the fire. ”

With that, she turned around and went back to the kitchen.

I wanted to stop her and let her eat first, but looking at her almost eager, busy back, I couldn't open my mouth.

In fact, I know that the relatives are gone, and she is now empty, maybe she is still a little numb in the first few days, but if she really calms down, the loss and emptiness will become more and more obvious, if you are not busy, do not find something to fill the time, fill the thoughts, people's sadness will really begin at this time, and will swallow people.

So, I didn't speak, just sat down and picked up the spoon and took a sip. The chicken porridge is boiled very well, the shredded chicken melts in the mouth, and the faint green onion and ginger flavor is fragrant and overflowing, which makes people feel extra comfortable.

I was drinking when I found Li'er next to me holding the bowl and looking at me while drinking.

In the past few days, because I was busy with Uncle Ai's funeral, I ignored her, and seeing her like this, I asked, "Li'er, what are you doing watching my mother?" ”

Li'er took a big mouthful of porridge in her mouth, swallowed it, thought for a while, and said, "Mother, why is it not good to fight?" ”

I was stunned for a moment - how could she ask this question?

"Li'er, why are you asking your mother this?"

"That day in front of the spirit, what my mother and Sister Susu said, Li'er heard it, and Li'er couldn't understand it. But Li'er seems to understand a little more. ”

"Oh? What do you understand? ”

"My mother doesn't like to fight, and my mother doesn't want people to fight."

I looked at her with interest: "You ask, is it because you think it's okay to fight?" ”

She put the spoon against her lower lip, thought for a while, and said, "Mother, Daddy has invited my husband to tell me books before, and Aunt Ruoshi and Aunt Zitong have also told me many stories, all of which are very old stories." ”

"And then?"

"Well, Li'er has heard a lot of stories of wars and many heroes." As she spoke, her eyes lit up: "Some heroes can pull up mountains!" Some heroes can sweep away thousands of armies! ”

I couldn't help but smile. I can't see that this little girl is still a nymphomaniac, and she is so excited to mention the big hero.

"So what?"

"So......" she looked at me and whispered, "Li'er thinks that there is nothing to be afraid of fighting." ”

I smiled, picked up the chopsticks and put a little scrambled egg in her bowl, and said slowly: "Li'er thinks that the hero's power can pull out the mountain, and it is a very majestic thing to sweep away thousands of troops, right?" So what if he swept through thousands of armies and cut off his mother's head? ”

Li'er suddenly showed a frightened expression, and looked at me with wide eyes.

I also looked at her: "This is war. ”

She was stunned, and for a while, shook her head and muttered, "Don't." Mother, don't go to war! ”

"That," I said slowly, "the second uncle of the Zhao family, he was beheaded, okay?" ”

Li'er trembled again, and immediately shook her head: "Don't!" The second uncle is a good person, he came to help me catch fish the day before yesterday, and promised to make me a kite in the spring! ”

"So, what about Aunt Rue? Or Second Uncle Gou? And the small pillar of the village chief's house, or the big gang at the entrance of the village? ”

As I spoke, she shook her head vigorously, "Don't." Don't go to any of them, and don't go to war with anyone you know! ”

At this time, I smiled faintly and said, "Li'er, don't talk about war lightly just because the word 'war' is easy to pronounce." Fighting a war is definitely not so simple, you think that sweeping thousands of armies is very majestic, and it is very majestic to lay down a vast territory, but after the majestic, it may be your relatives and people you love who fall. ”

“……”

"Maybe you think that my mother will not go to the battlefield, because my mother is just a woman; The second uncle of the Zhao family should not go to the battlefield, because he promised to help you make kites; Da Gang did not go to the battlefield because he was only fourteen years old. But my mother wants to tell you that when the war really starts, no one can help but call the shots, even if you think that a general and prince who commands a thousand armies and sweeps thousands of armies is equally equal in the face of war. ”

“……”

"Take 10,000 steps back," I caressed her heart and said, "Even if we really don't go to war, do you think it will be okay?" ”

Li'er was already taken aback, and at this time even her voice was empty, and she whispered, "Is it still related?" ”

I smiled, took away all the dishes and porridge on the table, leaving only a small bowl of porridge in her hand, and said, "When the war starts, Li'er can only eat this one thing every day, and there is no chicken and no vegetables." Lunch, dinner, all only this small bowl. ”

"Huh? Why? ”

I said, "Because of the war, tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, millions of soldiers no longer farm, no longer fish, do nothing, only war. But they still have to eat, they have to dress, they have to consume a lot of things every day. They don't produce anymore, so naturally we have to make more and eat less to feed them. ”

Li'er's eyes widened, and he subconsciously said, "I don't want it!" ”

"No, no, no. Because there is going to be a war, they have to eat enough before they can go to war, and if they don't have enough to eat, they will be killed. If you don't give it, they can only come and rob us, rob us of our food, and my mother and you will not be able to eat, but we still have to pay. ”

"Fu? What is it? ”

"We will take out this money to buy them clothes to wear, horses to ride, weapons to use, and build walls to build cities for war."

Li'er listened, seemed to be a little angry, and after a while, he said, "It's really not good to fight." I can't get enough to eat! ”

As she spoke, she raised the small bowl and clasped it on her face, and Ciri snorted and took the remaining small half bowl of porridge into her mouth, and after eating it fiercely, she said to me: "Mother, it's better not to fight!" ”

"Really?"

"Well, it's too bad to fight!"

I smiled and reached out to wipe the rice grains from the corners of her mouth. Actually, I don't want to scare her, but her identity is too special, or perhaps, I have a vague feeling that there will always be wars that will involve us in the future, and I need to make my daughter understand that the horror of war, the more high-ranking people are, the more they should not talk about war. I said softly, "Li'er, you have to remember that war is the worst evil thing in the world. As long as we are within our reach, we must do our best to stop and avoid war. Do you understand? ”

She didn't seem to understand, but she still nodded firmly: "Got it!" ”

I smiled and watched her climb off the stool after eating, into the back room, and when I looked up, I saw Su Su holding a small bowl of walnut cheese, and at some point she was already standing at the door, looking at me in a trance.

I smiled and said, "Susu, what's wrong?" ”

She stared at me blankly, and after a long while, she slowly walked over and put the bowl on the table, and said softly, "I remember what my grandfather once said to me." ”

"What?"

"Eldest Lady, Grandpa often said that the eldest lady is a Bodhisattva; And you are the bodhisattva's heart. ”

Bodhisattva...... Kindhearted and merciful......

I don't know what the difference is, but I think of Uncle Ai's voice and smile, and his constant care for me over the years, a warmth rises in my heart, and I smile gently at Su Su, and push a bowl of hot porridge in front of her.

But I didn't expect that here, a word, a word, would become a prophecy.
