At the commander's house, Li Shu was sitting in the guest seat chatting with the commander about some common things. As for the enthusiastic lady, she was sent by the commander to make tea.

Speaking of which, this commander really surprised Li Shu a little, after all, according to the novels she read before binding the system, not all of them said that the position of the commander was wide, fat, and small-eyed, with an aunt wife who couldn't be counted on two hands, not to mention a maid. But the one in front of him, except for the basic necessary opening operation of tens of millions of soldiers, there is nothing else. It's that their own home is everything simple.

"Miss Chang knows about the north." After chatting for a while, the commander suddenly changed his words and said.

Li Shu looked at the commander, hesitated, but nodded.

"The action in the north was so big before, it made people panic, I know a little bit."

Hearing this, the commander raised a kind smile on his face: "The north is ready to move now, I'm afraid that after this year's New Year's Pass, it will hit our south." If you fight down from the north, I'm afraid the first one to suffer is Lingzhou. ”

"Oh? What does the commander mean—" Li Shu pursed his lips and smiled. "You want me to leave the state?"

The commander nodded appreciatively, becoming more and more satisfied with Li Shu. The kid was very smart, and there were some things he could understand without having to say them directly.

"Ah, the phrase 'leave Lingzhou', counting you this time, I heard it three times from different people." Li Shu winked and quipped at the commander.

The commander was stunned for a moment, and then he understood. I'm afraid that He Yunmo and Wen Shi have already told her, but they are a little too much. But looking at this girl's appearance, she is determined not to leave?

"What? Reluctant to take the state? The commander followed Li Shu's joke and said, and also found a step for himself.

"In the end, it is the place where I settled when I was down, and after staying for so many years, where I said that I would give up. Alas, after staying in this place for a long time, it is really emotional. Not to mention how those old scholars held on to their hearts and minds, and didn't leave. ”

Li Shu said it back then, and the commander was very clear. It was when the entire feudal dynasty collapsed, and the whole country was in chaos. Dozens of warlords took advantage of the situation and fought endlessly. At that time, the big guys were desperately running to the south for their lives, but there were also some old stubborn people who were unwilling to live, and some who were reluctant to live in the land where their ancestors had lived for generations, and they were unwilling to leave. In the end, without exception, they were all annihilated in the smoke and flames of war.

"Back then, some people laughed at those old gentlemen for being stubborn and eating the old. I don't know if they are the ones who should be laughed at the most. Li Shu stroked the blanket on his body and lowered his head.

"The old squad leader who used to take me was one of the group guarding the north side. To this day, I remember the last words he taught me. ”

The commander subconsciously looked at Li Shu and asked, "What did he say?" ”

He said, in this life, people can have no ambitions, they can do nothing. But he has to remember his roots. If you don't even have your roots, you don't even want a home, is it still important to live? ”

Li Shu breathed a sigh of relief and struggled out of his memories. But the old class master's face still existed in her mind, and it didn't go away for a long time.

"At the beginning, I was still wondering, I have been learning drama with him since I was a child, and to put it offensively, I used to think that he was greedy for life and afraid of death. But I never thought that when I went to call him to flee for his life, his choice was to stay and guard the drama garden he had built all his life. It was from that day that I realized how much I had misunderstood him. Or rather, I never really got to know him. ”

"I've also been singing for so many years, and I've understood a lot of things." Li Shu raised his head to look at the commander, and for a moment, the commander even felt that her eyes were shining.

"Although I chose to run for my life in the first place, I can't run for my life for the rest of my life. I can't hide from the first day of junior high school, but I can't hide from fifteen, it's nothing more than such a reason. ”

Li Shu looked at the commander again and said with a smile: "Besides, you?" Aren't you going to give up the consular state? Although I am just a plain-headed citizen, I can't do anything. But I still have the courage to stay. ”

The commander looked at Li Shu's smile, and after a long time, he slowly spoke: "Compared to other women, you are really different." No wonder Xiao Mo favors you so much. ”

"You're laughing. Speaking of Lingzhou, it is better for the commander to make arrangements early. If there are still black sheep in the army, I am afraid that it will be inconvenient to act at that time. Li Shu smiled with the commander, and there was something in his words.

The commander was stunned for a moment, but quickly realized what she meant. He nodded, and began to think about finding some reason to take off the second master's official hat.

Just as he was thinking, Su Meng walked in with the freshly brewed tea. Because she thought that Li Shu would come early in the morning, she was afraid that she hadn't eaten breakfast, so she made some snacks in the kitchen, so she came over.

Wen Shi followed her to the back kitchen, and now naturally followed Su Meng back to the front hall.

"Little smoke, come and have a taste. I think you probably didn't eat in the morning, so you made a few of them blindly, and you can see if they suit your appetite. Su Meng was still full of enthusiasm, she sat next to Li Shu and pushed the snack plate she brought with her towards Li Shu.

Li Shu didn't shirk, and generously picked up a piece of shortbread and put it in his mouth. I have to say that Su Meng's craftsmanship is really a must. It's just a mediocre little shortbread, and it's all delicious.

"Madame is really amazing, the craftsmanship is so good." Li Shu couldn't help but eat two more pieces, and said with happiness on his face.

"If you like to eat. What were you talking about? Su Meng leaned on the back of the chair, pinched a piece and put it in his mouth, and asked while eating.

"It's nothing, it's just a few words of homely chat." The commander looked at the snack plate in front of Li Shu and Su Meng, and shook his head helplessly.

Su Meng didn't doubt him, so he pulled Li Shu to chirp again.

The hour passed quickly, Li Shu rubbed two meals at the commander's house, and finally left the commander's house in the afternoon.

"Warm time."

Li Shu and Wen Shi were walking side by side, and suddenly she screamed. Wen Shi turned his head in surprise and waited for Li Shu to speak.

"Are there only two people in this house, the commander and his wife? Do they have no children? ”

When Wen Shi heard this, he was silent for a while and said: "It turned out that there was, but there was a war at that time, and my wife was only three months pregnant, and there was a mistake in the protection, so it was gone." And because of the poor conditions at that time, the wife injured her body and could not regenerate. ”

Therefore, in the conversation just now, when talking about children, Mrs. will have such a complicated expression.

"The commander loves his wife very much." Li Shu muttered.

"Hmm. I love it very much. Wen Shi replied subconsciously. Both of them glanced at the house behind them again, then looked at each other and smiled.

"By the way, I'm afraid the commander's birthday banquet will not be peaceful this time." Li Shu asked.

"Sure enough, I can't hide it from my sister. There aren't many banquets like this that gather all kinds of people. Of course, the commander should entertain them well. Wen Shi grinned slightly, revealing two hidden little tiger teeth.

Okay. Li Shu thought to himself. This banquet is really another big show. After all, the commander who has always been poor suddenly has such a big fanfare, no matter what he thinks, he has to play big. This time, I don't know how many centrifugal or undercover people have been found out?

Well, Li Shu will wait and see.

On this day, Li Shu sat leisurely in the back garden of the house, and the little girl was urged by her to hang her voice in front.

This girl is really down-to-earth, let her do whatever she wants. No matter how hard and tired she was, she didn't say a word, and Li Shu became more attentive to her, and tried her best to teach her.

Li Shu also went to the opera troupe today, after all, there were not only Ah Qi there, but also those old people who had followed her since the north.

Those are all very experienced and have a deep relationship with her. Although they knew that Li Shu was borrowing their east wind to blow Ah Qi, they didn't blame her.

They know Ah Qi's recent movements, and they will give this master a warm greeting today, and they will give it to that master tomorrow. The intent is obvious. But where is the corner of the wall so easy to dig, these people are all living and dying with her, and they want to dig it up? She still has work to do.

"Okay, I've been hanging for so long, let's take a break." Li Shu came back to his senses and beckoned to the little girl. Xiaoya nodded at her and moistened her throat. sat down next to Li Shu.

"Tomorrow is the commander's birthday, I went out today to prepare a dress for you, and you will go with me to meet the world." Li Shu wiped Xiaoya's head, for her, Xiaoya is still that kind child.

"Me? What world am I going to see? Don't hold the master back. Xiaoya bowed her head slightly, not very confident.

Li Shu couldn't help but glance at her and said, "Am I saying that you are naïve or stupid?" The commander invited a lot of famous troupes to the banquet this time. There are more people singing in it. Normally, it's hard for you to see each other, but this time I gave you a chance, but you still think it's pulling me back? ”

"I'm not going to have that long hind legs for you." The slender fingers tapped Xiaoya's head, and Li Shu joked.

Xiaoya also felt embarrassed, who was as stupid as her in this place, she must have been happy early, but she was afraid that she was looking forward to the commander's banquet early all the time.

"I put that dress in your room, it's a long cheongsam with a little pink and embroidered with maple leaves, which is just right for you."

"Huh?" The little girl pouted and said, "Master, I have money myself." Why did you spend money on me? This money is not burned, how can you spend it indiscriminately? ”

Gotcha, the little housekeeper is online. Li Shu held his forehead, wanting to laugh but not daring to laugh. Since Xiaoya followed her, she felt that she was about to become a waste. Life and daily life, economic property Li Shu was all lost to Xiaoya, but I didn't expect that because of her behavior of shaking off the shopkeeper, she cultivated a housekeeper. When it comes to money, Xiaoya is in good spirits.

"I'm spending money on you, am I still spending it? You girl really don't know what to do. Hum. I don't care, I bought you clothes, you have to wear them if you don't wear them. Otherwise, you're wasting my money. Li Shu didn't want to listen to this girl nag her about financial management, so she quickly got up and planned to slip away. You also said that it is shameful to waste. So, you're obedient. ”

Xiaoya opened her mouth, but before she could say anything, she saw Li Shu's figure flashing flexibly and ran away directly from her eyes.
