Chapter 490: Xue Baochai's choice
Jia Huan's words made the hearts of the twelve noble disciples tighten.
It was probably the most important opportunity of their lives, and they didn't want to give it up.
All twelve of them knelt down on one knee and begged: "Please give us another chance, the next assessment, we will definitely be able to meet the standard." If we don't meet the standards, we don't need to be expelled by the generals, and we will leave the barracks ourselves. ”
Jia Huan said lightly: "Although you have wasted some, there are still some permits. ”
The twelve noble sons all showed joy on their faces, and then listened to Jia Huan continue: "But there is no joke in the army......
Hearing this turn, the twelve people turned to ashes again.
I only heard Jia Huan continue: "It is naturally impossible to let you be the main army, but this general can give you a way back." If you are willing, the twelve of you can serve as the leader of the Red Flame Army. ”
"But you are different from them, their hundred people are only temporary, as long as they are not the last hundred in the next assessment, they can still become the regular army of the Red Flame Army. And you can only be the leader of the gang forever. I wonder if you would like to? ”
Hearing this, the twelve people were overjoyed and said: "I am willing, thank you for the completion of the general!" ”
Seeing that they all agreed, Jia Huan couldn't help but nod with satisfaction.
Then he said to them, "Come with me." ”
"Yes, General."
Soon, Jia Huan led them all into the tent.
"Let's all sit down and talk."
"General Xie."
All twelve sat down, but each sat in the corner of the stool, and was erect.
Seeing this, Jia Huan nodded with satisfaction.
Jia Huan couldn't help but say: "Take it easy, in my place, there is no need for this." I know that in your hearts, there is some resentment against me. Because during this time, instead of taking care of you, I have humiliated you in all kinds of ways. ”
The twelve people hurriedly said: "The subordinates don't dare, this is all the general's cultivation of his subordinates, how can the subordinates be resentful?" If so, it is also a foolish worm, and it is unbearable to build. ”
Jia Huan smiled: "Actually, to tell you from the heart, I don't want you to stay." Because since His Majesty wants to create an invincible and strong army, he wants to use the Red Flame Army as a sharp knife. ”
"Then the Red Flame Army will definitely charge into battle, and I don't know how many battles it will have to go through, it will be very dangerous. If you have three long and two short, I will not be able to explain it to your family. ”
"That's why I humiliate you in all sorts of ways, and if you really retreat, you will hate me in your heart, and you will be able to save yourself in the end."
Hearing this, the twelve people understood Jia Huan's good intentions, and they couldn't help but be more and more grateful to Jia Huan.
They really believed Jia Huan's nonsense.
Mainly because Jia Huan's previous reputation was really good, what Wenqu star went down to earth, what Jia Shengyi Promise is worth a thousand gold, what Jia Zi four sentences, and the name of the Qingtian Lord in Ping'an County.
How could such a great talent humiliate them for no reason?
It was for the sake of preserving them.
Originally, although they gritted their teeth and persevered, they were resentful in their hearts.
It was all gone, and I felt guilty.
I heard Jia Huan say again: "Since you stay, then do it well." It is not without benefit for the twelve of you to stay in the camp now. ”
"Except for the twelve of you, the rest of the battalion will not be determined until a year."
"So of course you are all the leaders of the battalion, and no one is dissatisfied with it."
Hearing this, the eyes of these twelve people couldn't help but light up.
That's right! If at the beginning they were a little dissatisfied with staying in the camp, now they are only happy.
If they stay in the regular army, they will definitely not be able to get ahead.
But now, they can easily become officials.
Although the chances of being promoted to the rank of the head of the battalion are obviously less than that of the regular army, the head of the gang is also safe.
Then I heard Jia Huan continue: "And you are in the gang head camp, in fact, you have a lot to do. First, you all come from noble families, and you can work food. ”
"After you arrive at the battalion, if the food of the whole army can be significantly improved, do you think the soldiers of the whole army will be grateful to you?"
Hearing this, these twelve people's eyes lit up again.
The training of the Red Flame Army is very large, so the food in the army is naturally excellent, otherwise, the nutrition will not be able to keep up, and the training of new recruits will soon be abolished.
Every morning, there are soy milk and two eggs, and two meat and two vegetables at noon and night.
(Some book friends in the comment area said that in ancient times, if the nutrition could not keep up with the soldiers, they would be abolished by training, cough cough, Yanyu has also written seven or eight alternate histories, how can you not know this?) It's been capitalized and close-up in several other books.,This one doesn't want to be so hydrographical.,So I didn't mention this stubble.,A brief mention here.,Spoiler a little bit.,Military training is not the point.,It's just a transitional chapter.,It won't be too many words)
It's just that the taste is indescribable, and it can only be said that it is cooked and can be eaten.
Those recruits were also trained to be hungry before they could swallow it. These twelve noble sons are a little difficult to swallow the food.
If they were to be the leaders of the barracks, they would definitely be able to take the food in the barracks to the next level.
When the time comes, won't all the soldiers of the whole army be grateful to them?
In this way, in the gang head camp, they can easily make achievements!
Jia Huan continued: "Moreover, although you have arrived at the gang head camp, you still have to train hard and do not slack off. ”
"If your combat effectiveness is not weaker than that of the regular army. If in a certain battle, your battalion shines and achieves a more impressive record than the regular army, then it will surely amaze everyone! ”
"When the time comes, it will be easier for me to take credit for you."
Hearing this, the eyes of these twelve people couldn't help but light up again.
That's right!
What they could do in the battalion was much more than just make the food delicious and delicious to the praise of all the soldiers.
In fact, they can do more, but the premise is that they still need to be hard to strike iron, and they must have the ability to surprise others in order to do things that amaze others.
They heard Jia Huan say again: "The opportunity is reserved for those who are prepared, I hope that when the opportunity comes, you will not miss it!" ”
Opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared!
The twelve noble sons were all chewing on this sentence, and there was a light flashing in their eyes.
……
Let's say that in the Rongguo Mansion, Jia Baoyu wrote a few invitations and sent them to the Grand View Garden.
This invitation is a post where he set up a host banquet for the sisters.
The people who were invited to the banquet were Lin Daiyu, Xue Baochai, Jia Tanchun and Jia Xichun and other sisters, oh, by the way, there was also a Li Kun.
In the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, Lin Daiyu read the invitation, smiled disdainfully, and then said to Zijuan: "You go to the third girl's place and ask her to send a letter to Baoyu, just say that I am not feeling well, so I won't bother his host." ”
Zijuan smiled, "Yes, Miss." ”
In the Wuyuan Garden, Xue Baochai was not here at all, and went back to Xue's Mansion early in the morning, and it was Xue Pan who invited her to go back.
Xue Baochai didn't know what was going on at home, so he didn't dare to slack off, so he went back early in the morning, and he was naturally not there at this time, and he couldn't go to the banquet.
The remaining three people, Tanchun, Xichun and Li Kun, naturally knew that Jia Baoyu's drunkard did not mean to drink, he invited the sisters to the East Banquet, and the people he actually wanted to invite were not them.
It's Xue Baochai and Lin Daiyu, and they mainly want to invite Lin Daiyu.
But they can't say no.
Therefore, the three of them went to the banquet on time, and brought the news that Lin Daiyu and Xue Baochai could not come.
After Jia Baoyu heard this, he suddenly exploded and became depressed.
Jia Baoyu lost interest, and there were not many people talking at the banquet, and the atmosphere of the banquet became more and more dull.
……
Let's say that in the Xue Mansion, Xue Pan and Aunt Xue's mother and son are arguing fiercely.
The Jia family intends to marry the treasure girl, and Aunt Xue is naturally willing, although she did not agree immediately, she just pretended to be reserved, and had the intention of not letting the Jia family look down on her.
I didn't expect to tell Xue Pan about this matter, but Xue Pan jumped on his feet and refused to agree.
Xue Pan couldn't help but say: "Mom, that big-faced treasure is a waste, how can my sister marry him?" Didn't you defile your sister? ”
Aunt Xue said angrily: "What are you talking nonsense about, you evil obstacle? If you are still married, will you be a relative of the emperor when our Xue family is a relative of the emperor? ”
"The Jia family is also a national mansion, and they have a title. What is our Xue family? It's just a merchant family. ”
"The Jia family is willing to marry your sister, which really gives us enough face. And you are also an unsuccessful person, your sister married into the Jia family, and she can also shelter you from the wind and rain in the future, so that my Xue family's family business will not fall. ”
Xue Pan said angrily: "Mom, you can't help but underestimate me!" Besides, my sister has never been married, and the Jia family coveted our family's property first, if my sister really married, needless to say, my Xue family's property will definitely be surnamed Jia in the future. ”
"Besides, now that I follow Brother Huan'er, with Brother Huan'er, my Xue family's property is comprehensive. Mom doesn't believe me, don't you still believe in Brother Huan? ”
"Mom, the so-called would rather be a heroic concubine than a mediocre wife. My sister is married to Brother Huan as a concubine, and it is ten times stronger than marrying that big-faced treasure! ”
"You just don't believe what I said, let me ask you, in the past few years, which time has your old man's vision been better? Now I am the head of the family, and I have said it! ”
Aunt Xue trembled at Xue Pan's words, and she couldn't help but scold: "Good you obstacle!" Is there anyone like you who is an older brother? Where in the world do you see a brother like you? Push your own girl into the fire pit? ”
"Brother Huan'er is naturally good, but no matter how good he is, now that the saint has given marriage, your sister can't be a wife if she marries. Although my Xue family is unbearable, there is no reason for a concubine to be a concubine. ”
"If that's the case, not only will others laugh at me, but I will die under Jiuquan, and I won't have the face to see your Lao Tzu and your Xue family's ancestors!"
Xue Pan said angrily: "Everyone lives their lives behind closed doors, as long as my sister lives well, don't care if others die?" Whoever wants to laugh, let him laugh. ”
"I said earlier, let you marry your sister to Brother Huan'er earlier, but you just didn't listen. Now it's okay, it's going to be reduced to being a concubine. If you don't seize this opportunity, I'm afraid you won't even be a concubine! ”
When Aunt Xue heard this, she became more and more annoyed.
She said angrily: "That's how you are a brother? Hell-bent on exchanging your sister for your wealth? How much benefit did Brother Huan'er give you? Want you to sell your sister to him? ”
As soon as he heard this, Xue Pan was so angry that he trembled, and he immediately looked for knives everywhere.
"Mom, I didn't think that in your eyes, I was so unbearable. In that case, then I will find a knife, and take out my heart, and show it to the old man, is my heart black? ”
"I'm going to let you see the old man, who wants to exchange my sister for wealth? Who's really good for my sister! My Xue family will let you be a woman, and sooner or later it will be over! ”
Aunt Xue was so angry that she couldn't breathe for a while, she couldn't stand steadily, sat down on the chair, and said angrily: "Yes, I am a woman, I don't understand anything, I defeated the Xue family." ”
"You beast go and find a knife, kill me first, no one in the Xue family will stop you in the future, you will be in charge, this is your favor."
Seeing this, Xue Pan hurriedly knelt in front of Aunt Xue to comfort, and there was a lot of trouble for a while.
At this time, Xue Baochai walked in and said with tears in his eyes: "Mom, brother, why bother making such a fuss for me?" Whether it's Baoyu or Brother Huan'er, I just don't get married. I've been staying at home, honoring my mother, and I'll never marry in my life. ”
Aunt Xue said with tears in her eyes: "Bao girl, don't listen to your brother Hu Qin. This is a lifelong event in your life, Mom only asks who you want to marry, let you decide, Mom will not end up complaining. ”
Hearing Aunt Xue's words, Xue Baochai shook his head and said, "Mom, I said, I won't marry anyone in this life, I will only stay by my mother's side to honor you." If you all come to force me, it's a big deal that I'll go as a sister-in-law with my hair reamed. ”
Hearing Xue Baochai's words, Aunt Xue couldn't help but be shocked.
How could she not hear that Bao Yatou couldn't look down on Baoyu.
If you take a fancy to Baoyu, you don't have to be like this, just say that it is up to your mother to decide.
But now she says that she won't marry anyone and is willing to stay at home, which means that she is unwilling to marry Baoyu.
But it's hard to say that I want to marry Brother Huan.
After all, this marriage was not to be a wife, but to be a concubine, not only was she wronged, but the Xue family was also shameless.
Thinking of this, Aunt Xue sighed slightly.
Although she just said that Bao Yatou's family affairs let her make her own decisions, she thought that Bao Yatou was willing to marry Baoyu.
Now he refuses, and just wants to marry Brother Huan.
Aunt Xue refused to open her mouth and agreed.
And Xue Baochai saw that Aunt Xue didn't speak for a long time, her eyes couldn't help but darken, and she couldn't help but shed tears.
Xue Pan hurriedly said: "Sister, don't listen to your mother, she is obscure and unreasonable." Your family affairs are wrapped up in your brother, and you are satisfied! Ouch, Mom, don't fight, don't fight......"
But it turned out that Aunt Xue didn't listen to what Xue Pan said, and she suddenly became angry, and couldn't help but pick up the feather duster and hit Xue Pan headlessly.
Xue Pan screamed in pain, hugged his head and ran away, and disappeared as soon as he slipped through the smoke. (End of chapter)
