Chapter 100: The New Year is coming
It's the moon, but the country of Bin is still full of life. After all, it is at the southern end of the Qianhua Continent, and it is natural that the four seasons are like spring, but it also causes the whole Bin country to attach great importance to snow or ice. After all, scarcity is expensive, so during the Chinese New Year, if ordinary people have ice to eat, it is necessary to publicize it.
But for Sun Xiaohan, eating ice during the Chinese New Year is a memory that has not been interrupted since childhood. After all, the family is solid, and it can be said that the power is leaning towards the government and the opposition, and eating a little ice is a normal thing, and this year is no exception.
Sun Xiaohan, who was sitting in the indifferent courtyard, was holding a bowl of shaved ice while reading his grandfather's letter. The ice is drizzled with a variety of freshly squeezed juices, walnuts, dried apricots, raisins and so on. If such a bowl of shaved ice is brought to the street, I don't know how many children will chase after it.
Putting down his grandfather's letter, Sun Xiaohan took another bite of ice. At this time, Bai Ouyue also came to Tianjing Garden, and when she saw that Sun Xiaohan was also there, she said jokingly: "The virtuous nephew is so elegant, and in the cold winter, he still has the heart to eat ice!"
Sun Xiaohan looked back and saw that it was the third uncle who came, so he didn't say anything, turned back to Wen Tao and said, "Wen Tao, the third uncle is angry, go and bring a bowl of ice to the third uncle to relieve the heat!"
Bai Ouyue laughed and said: "The virtuous nephew still has a sharp mouth! Just like your father, he is unforgiving! Speaking of which, I don't know how my second brother is doing?"
Bai Ouyue is Teng Jingyu's third disciple, and this eldest disciple is Ji Fang, the lord of Bin Kingdom. These two disciples are Sun Xiaohan's father, Sun Jingming. But the identities of these two disciples are somewhat special, on the surface they are Teng Jingyu's disciples, but the actual relationship is much more complicated.
If you want to say that it is a real and pure beginner disciple, Bai Ouyue can be regarded as a senior brother. But after all, the first two are indeed the first to get started, so they are at the top. In fact, Sun Jingming started earlier than Ji Fang, and Ji Fang at that time was already the identity of the prince, so Sun Jingming also gave up the position of senior brother.
But there is another layer of relationship, that is, Sun Xiaohan. All of Sun Xiaohan's skills were also taught by Teng Jingyu, and from this point of view, Sun Xiaohan is also Teng Jingyu's disciple. Therefore, the relationship between Sun Xiaohan and Bai Ouyue can be said to be the relationship between brothers and sisters.
But in order not to complicate the relationship, Teng Jingyu did not declare Sun Xiaohan his disciple. In this way, a lot of relationships become much brighter. Therefore, Sun Xiaohan's names for many of Teng Jingyu's disciples are uncles. Of course, not all of Teng Jingyu's disciples have such blessings, after all, counting Ji Fang and Sun Jingming, Teng Jingyu's disciples are only nine, and the others are only registered disciples.
This Bai Ouyue sat opposite Sun Xiaohan, and at this time, Wen Tao had already brought Bai Ouyue a bowl of ice. Bai Ouyue looked at Wen Tao and wanted to speak, but she didn't say it. Sun Xiaohan naturally understood what the third uncle meant, and turned to Wen Tao and said, "Wen Tao, you go and rest first! I will talk with the third uncle here, so you don't have to accompany you here." ”
Wen Tao answered and went to rest. Seeing Wen Tao leave, Bai Ouyue said: "Virtuous nephew! I see that you are also not a small boss, why is the person who serves by your side still a man! The second brother didn't say to change it for you." Although this little scholar grew up with you since he was a child, he is not as careful as a woman after all. It's always like this, it's inevitable that you can't take care of it!"
When Sun Xiaohan heard Bai Ouyue say this, he didn't understand what he meant, so he said: "Wen Tao is very good! There is no place to take care of it! Why did the third uncle suddenly say this?"
When Bai Ouyue saw Sun Xiaohan say this, not only did she really not understand, but she still pretended to be confused, so she said: "What you said is also true, but there is a verse, this Wen Tao is a boy after all, there are many things, he can't do it! Besides, the scholar, he should do the business of a scholar, after all, he is not a maid!"
As soon as Sun Xiaohan heard it: "It turns out that the third uncle sees that there are few people around me! This doesn't matter, it's enough to have Wen Tao, and I hate chaos when there are too many people." Besides, I often run outside, and it's inconvenient when there are too many people. ”
When Bai Ouyue heard Sun Xiaohan say this, she suddenly lost her words. What Sun Xiaohan thinks and what he wants to express are completely two different meanings. So Bai Ouyue didn't say anything anymore, picked up the shaved ice, and ate a lot. Sun Xiaohan looked at it and said teasingly: "Third Uncle eat slowly, this cold winter is ruining his body!"
Bai Ouyue glanced at Sun Xiaohan and didn't speak. Sun Xiaohan smiled and said, "Third uncle, my grandfather sent a letter just now. It is said that the New Year is coming, so I ask you to go back to Tengjiazhuang with me and celebrate the New Year together. Also, it was said that the fifth uncle also came. Don't excuse yourself, it's crowded!"
Bai Ouyue said: "Aren't you suspicious of being too messy? What am I going to do?"
Sun Xiaohan smiled and said: "I mean that there are too many people around me, I am confused, and I didn't say that there can't be many people in the family! Besides, your grandfather told you to go, will you go?"
Bai Ouyue rolled her eyes and said, "You ghost, don't turn it into my hands, or you look good!" After speaking, he got up and went back to the house. Sun Xiaohan smiled and called someone to call him back to Wu E, who was in the capital, to discuss the matter of going home for the New Year.
The current Cuiping City can be said to be peaceful. Wu E is not only good at business, but also good at government affairs. Sun Xiaohan is now more and more glad of his original decision, and according to Sun Xiaohan's assumption, he will never let Wu E only be this small capital.
Now among the people inside and outside the city, there is a saying: "There is a capital in Cuiping City, and the indifferent courtyard is the main one." A simple ballad tells who the real person in Cuiping City is, but this is just the thoughts of the people. In fact, Sun Xiaohan absolutely does not interfere with his subordinates.
There was not much time, so Wu E rushed back. The three of them sat down, called out all the leaders, and discussed how the New Year should be celebrated. The location must be in Tengjiazhuang. But in the way, except for Chinese New Year's Eve, everyone must observe the New Year together, and the rest of the time is completely their own rule.
In the end, everyone unanimously decided to hold a "school meeting" in Tengjiazhuang's outer village. Let all soldiers of the private army participate. At the same time, even if you are not in the private army, as long as you want to participate, you can sign up. As long as the identity can be confirmed, because this is not only a "school meeting", but also to expand the private army.
And it was agreed that the top 10 winners would be given generous rewards. Including light armor of the whole body, pills, blades, and so on. The top three are prize upgrades, and the third place is awarded a third-class martial arts and martial arts; the second place is a third-class martial arts and martial arts, as well as a third-class blade;
Don't look at it as a military position in the private army, it seems that it is not named in the DPRK. But in fact, the benefits that can be obtained from this private military post are far greater than the benefits that can be obtained from the official military position. Not only that, as long as they are good talents, they may be selected by these strong martial artists and accepted as disciples.
This is a great blessing for the poor. Because of reaching the realm of martial artists, if you put it in the martial arts hall, you will never accept apprentices, and occasionally you have nothing to do. What's more, the martial artists under Sun Xiaohan are all high-level martial artists.
Everyone agreed, and Sun Xiaohan wrote a reply to his grandfather and asked Tianxing to send it out. Everything was arranged, and Sun Xiaohan passed the order: "Two days to pack up things, set off on the third day, go back to Xiaolinji first, meet Sun Xiaohan's parents, and go to Tengjiazhuang together." ”
