Lingering and waiting for Su Mo to send Grandma Wu and Ning Nanqi away, Gu Xingnian was already tired of crying and fell asleep.

Su Mo asked people to send them back to the house so that the little girl could sleep well.

The news that Gu Xingnian is going to leave in the spring next year, Su Mo did not hide it, mainly because there was no need to hide it.

For a while, the people in the Gu Mansion changed.

Gu Ping'an practiced martial arts more and more hard.

Gu Jinnian and Chen Qingzhou also studied harder and harder.

Only Su Mo, the left and right Agricultural Divisions Bureau was not a big deal, and he handed over the excerpt to Emperor Jingyong.

Emperor Jingyong was already guilty, and when he saw the content of the excerpt, he immediately agreed to it.

So far, Su Mo has not been on duty, and every day he takes Gu Xingnian to go out to play, accompanied by Gu Steward, as if he wants to advance the company for the next few years in a limited time.

Gu Steward asked Heijiawei to send a letter to Gu Qinhan and told him about it, but since the war on the frontier, this letter was suppressed by the war letter.

When Gu Qinhan saw this letter, it was already the twenty-third day of the lunar month.

The climate is getting colder and colder, and the heavy snow has not stopped for a moment, and the border tart people have not been pleased, and seeing the bad weather, they have already stopped thinking about the battle.

Dayong's soldiers can finally breathe a sigh of relief, this is not taking advantage of the New Year, specially went to buy a lot of meat and wine in advance, and made an exception and was happy.

Gu Qinhan held the letter for a long time before he picked up the pen and wrote a reply, he put the letter paper into the envelope and shouted, "Mu Si." ”

"Here, Boss, what do you command?"

Mu Si opened the curtain and walked in, he was grinning, dressed in the armor of the black guard, but without a mask, and his originally flawless face had an extra scar that slanted from the brow bone of his left eyebrow to the bridge of his nose.

"Tomorrow you go back to Beijing, bring this letter with you, to Uncle Gu, this year's New Year... I have asked Your Majesty to remain in the army. ”

"What?"

Mu Si's eyes widened, "No, why don't you go back?" ”

How many years have I waited, and I finally waited for the reunion of my relatives, shouldn't I rush back quickly and have a reunion year together.

"Why can't you, generals, the country is greater than the family."

Gu Qinhan's face did not change, "If you have nothing else to do, you will step down, I still have military affairs to deal with." ”

"But..."

Mu Si wanted to say something, but seeing Gu Qinhan's expression, he swallowed his words in the end.

He picked up the letter and arched his hand: "Yes, my subordinates retire." ”

At night, the barracks became lively, the cold wind was blowing, the bonfires were crackling, and the soldiers were drinking wine, eating meat, and laughing in a white mist.

Gu Qinhan sat on the high platform, listening to those laughter, but his heart was lonely, the fire was bright, but he couldn't feel a trace of warmth.

Mu Si at the bottom of the head saw the loneliness in his eyes, and he couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable.

obviously found his family, but the boss doesn't seem to be in a better state than before, and his eyes often reveal complex emotions.

Sure enough, the bullshit world is like an invisible cage, the heart is free and fearless, but if the heart is concerned, no matter how strong it is, it will not escape it.

Mu Si didn't open his eyes, and couldn't bear to look at Gu Qinhan.

At dawn the next day, Mu Si simply packed his bags and rode on his horse.

He had already greeted Su Jinfan in advance, and he would go straight to Guanyuan City, and after joining the Su family's caravan, he would rush to the capital together.

The group hurried and arrived in the capital on the night of the Chinese New Year's Eve.

Last time, Mu Si sent a letter to the past, asking them to find a suitable thank you gift to give to Changxian Jun.

Su Jinfan got the letter and went to collect it, and when he was looking for a good gift, he came to the capital with a caravan, and while buying a house and a shop, he handed over a post to ask to see Su Mo, and sent the prepared thank you gift over.

Now that he came to the capital, Su Jinfan directly took the caravan and went to live in the courtyard of the last purchase.

Let's tidy up first, rest for a night, and then send the New Year's gifts they brought to Zhennan Wangfu tomorrow.

Su Jinfan's courtyard was far away from Zhennan Wangfu, and when Mu Si entered the capital, he parted ways with them and went straight to Zhennan Wangfu.

Steward Gu had been waiting at the gate of the mansion for Gu Qinhan to come back for a reunion, and when he saw Mu Si, he hurriedly walked over and asked people to hurry up and bring the hot tea that had been prepared.

"It's cold, hurry, drink a cup of hot tea to warm up."

Mu Si turned over and dismounted, took the cup and drank it all in one gulp, the heat flow passed from his throat to his lungs, and he felt that the cold on his body had dissipated a lot.

"Oops, comfort!"

Steward Gu took the cup and poured him another glass, and the people in the house led the horse to the stable.

"What's the matter with your face, with such a long scar, how can you marry a daughter-in-law in the future!"

Steward Gu looked at Mu Si's face, distressed.

Mu Si drank the tea in another sip, waved his hand, and disagreed, "It's okay, I didn't plan to marry a daughter-in-law." ”

They are black-armored guards, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they live a life of licking blood on the tip of a knife, and maybe one day they will be gone.

Marry a daughter-in-law? That's not delaying other girls.

"Bah, bah, this all says that starting a family and starting a family, how can this man not have a family?"

Mu Si's mouth was fast, "The commander is not a family." ”

Steward Gu immediately lowered his face, "Second master, can it be the same!" ”

Mu Si, who turned his brain, was immediately dumb, but no, the boss's situation can be the same.

I used to be looking for relatives, but now that I've found my relatives, the burden on my body is finally gone, and I met the girl I like, but it's just...

"You all have your own ideas, and I, an old man who is half in the ground, won't be nosy."

Steward Gu hunched over and walked to the front yard, chattering as he went.

"I let the kitchen make your favorite dishes, Mu Yi and they are all empty, this time the reunion dinner on Chinese New Year's Eve, the second master should not be in the palace, right?"

Mu Si lowered his head and followed behind, hearing this, he was a little embarrassed.

Mu Si scratched his head: "That... Uncle Gu, the commander didn't come back..."

"What?"

Steward Gu stopped abruptly and turned his head, his brows furrowed.

Mu Si was stared at a little weak, he took a deep breath, gritted his teeth, took out the letter, and handed it over with both hands.

"The commander has stayed in the army and has not returned."

Steward Gu was suddenly anxious, this is finally a family reunion, why did he stay on the frontier?

"Tight war on the frontier?"

Mu Si shook his head.

"In that case, why not come back? Could it be that the one in the palace ordered it? ”

"No, it was the commander's own request, I don't know the specifics, the commander only asked me to give you this letter."

Mu Si can't say that his boss covets his eldest sister-in-law, and coming back is only to increase his sadness, so it's better not to see each other, right?

After hearing this, the steward took the letter, tore open the envelope with the help of the lantern on the verandah, opened the letter and read it.

The letter is not very much, but it is divided into three paragraphs.

The first is to apologize for not returning to Beijing for the New Year, the second is to say that he knows about Gu Xingnian, and the third is to give him New Year's wishes to Gu Guan and Su Mo.

It is better not to have this letter.

Steward Gu held the letter paper, only to feel tightness in his chest and shortness of breath, and his heart ached.

But Gu Qinhan said that the country is greater than home.

It's not easy to care too much about the steward, after all, this is true, there is no country, where is the home, and besides, he is a slave, where can he be the mind of the masters.

It's just that he can't watch the masters reunited, and he is somewhat lost in his heart.
