Chapter 8 No Regrets
These days, I don't know why, Jiang Xiaoman always feels a little drowsy.
For an energetic teenager, this has never been the case.
I kept having the same dream, and there seemed to be a big rain in the dream, just like the spring rain a few days ago.
In the dream, it seems that someone made his mother cry, and in the dream, it seems that he saw Grandpa Liu, who has told him countless beautiful stories in the past five years, and Grandpa Liu seems to have asked him to call his grandfather.
When he was awake, Jiang Xiaoman seemed to feel that his mother had become different from before, but he couldn't say what was different.
It seems that his mother has become younger.
Eleven or twelve-year-old boys, where do they think too much, and forget about them in a blink of an eye.
As the end of the year approached, the number of guests in the Overseer's Mansion grew, and the generals of the nearby border cities came to the door with gifts.
These were all those who followed Jiang Yao out of the hinterland of the dynasty at the beginning, and belonged to Jiang Yao's maternal family and trained him since he was a child.
Jiang Yao's maternal surname is Dugu, the first ancestor of this clan followed the founding saint of the Great Xia Dynasty Rong Ma for a lifetime, and was the king of the Great Xia Dynasty, passed down from generation to generation, and the three states in the north of the Great Xia Dynasty were all under the control of the Dugu clan.
The old man of the Dugu family has a tight love for the younger generations in the family, and he set out to train an "iron servant" for the younger generations a long time ago.
At the beginning, Jiang Yao left the hinterland of the dynasty to fight in the border areas, and this iron servant beside him broke into a prestigious reputation, and was called ten tigers, seven wolves, three eagles and one calf, a total of twenty-one people.
The iron servant of the Dugu family is supposed to follow his master all his life until the moment of martyrdom, but the three Jiang Yao brothers don't pay much attention to that rule.
Over the years, following the former Nine Emperors from Rong for more than ten years, the once young and vigorous iron attendants who had cultivated to a very high level of companionship have gradually become generals who have stepped in alone and held military power, and the former twenty-one iron servants are still these few now.
What remains unchanged is that as long as Jiang Yao gives an order, these powerful figures in the border army will definitely follow firmly, even if the position pointed by Jian Feng is...
......
......
At the Overseer's Mansion, by a pond in the backyard, the boy wielded a silver steel spear with a whistling wind.
"Xiaoman's progress is really not small!"
On the side, Jiang Moli sat quietly and watched the young man wield the gun and whispered admiration, and there was a look in his long and narrow eyes like peach blossoms.
The spear is not a rare weapon, it is cast for a hundred smelted iron, the head of the gun is integrated, one foot seven zhang seven inches long, and weighs twenty-eight pounds and five taels, one point is not more than one point, it is a long spear of the Great Xia border army.
I have to say that Jiang Xiaoman's strength is indeed not small, although the military spear here is an ordinary weapon in the army, but for eleven or twelve-year-old children, there are very few who can dance, and there are few people like Jiang Xiaoman who can dance the iron spear.
"Hey!"
"Drink!"
Jiang Xiaoman's mouth was full of drinks, and although the spear in his hand was far higher than that of the young man, it did not look abrupt at all when he waved it.
There are not too many fancys in this marksmanship, and it is only a short three styles in the past, but it is a real method of killing.
There are twelve styles of gun tricks, Jiang Xiaoman began to practice guns at the age of seven, and now five years have passed, but he has only mastered the first three styles.
If it weren't for Jiang Xiaoman's poor qualifications, this gun trick was really extraordinary, even if it was Jiang Xiaoman's eleventh uncle, his cheap master Jiang Che would only be able to do it now.
Don't regret the heavenly gun, this set of guns came from the hands of the first generation of the town border soldiers of the Great Xia Dynasty.
Since the founding of the Great Xia Dynasty, the border army has been inherited and there have been seven peerless town border soldiers, and they have also left seven sets of supreme exercises, which are called the seven styles of the border army.
This unrepentant spear was created by the first generation of military candidates in the town who was known as the "white-clothed military god", and only the fifth-generation military candidate could use it all if he could practice the twelve styles except for the "white-clothed military god" who created the unrepentant heavenly spear.
The first generation of military candidates exchanged for the twelve states of Nanling for the Great Xia Dynasty with the Heavenly Spear of No Regrets, and the fifth generation of military candidates pierced the Cangyue Mountain north of Great Xia with no regrets, so that the adjacent Great Qin Dynasty in the north had no natural danger to defend from then on.
"Li'er, how do you see my gun practice?"
Putting away the gun and standing still, Jiang Xiaoman looked at the girl who stretched out her sleeves in front of her to help her wipe the sweat beads, the corners of her mouth were slightly raised, and the shallow dimples on both cheeks were raised, quite lazy.
"Begging for a beating! I want to call my sister!" stretched out Qianqian's finger and pointed at the young man's forehead, Jiang Moli scolded with a smile.
"Uncle Eleven just said that in the future, Sister Moli is going to marry me as his wife, wouldn't it be unfamiliar to call Sister again?"
Stretching out his hand and gently pinching the lush fingers in front of his forehead, Jiang Xiaoman cleared his throat and said in a serious tone: "Jiang Moli, the Gesang flowers outside Vermilion Bird City bloom for ten miles, and life and death are impermanent for a hundred years. ”
Lin Mei who happened to be brought pastries for the two children listened, her red lips opened lightly, and a pair of Danfeng eyes widened at this time.
The words are good, but when they come out of the mouth of a young man whose voice has not changed, it will inevitably change its taste!
Especially, this boy is his own son!
"Jiang Xiaoman, your skin has been itchy again lately?!"
The young man seemed to have something to say, but before he could open his mouth, there was a pain in his ears.
There is no need to turn his head, Jiang Xiaoman also knows who is the person who is holding his earlobe with a pair of snow-white jade hands at this moment.
"Mother, it hurts, it hurts! it hurts!
Throwing down the spear in his hand, Jiang Xiaoman hurriedly begged for mercy, but secretly said in his heart that he was unlucky, that party's words were really not something he could think of at his age, but now it was himself who was punished.
"Hee-hee, tell you to talk nonsense!"
Jiang Moli did not protect the lazy young man as usual this time, but smiled lightly, a pair of peach blossom-like eyes narrowed slightly, took the pastry from Lin Mei's hand, ignored Jiang Xiaoman's begging for mercy, and pinched a piece of osmanthus cake and put it in his mouth.
In the year of the border pass, this osmanthus cake is a must, and it is a New Year's delicacy that big children are looking forward to just like Jiang Xiaoman and Jiang Moli.
And if you want to say which osmanthus cake is the best in Vermilion Bird City, it belongs to the Overseer's Mansion is a must!
Taking a bite and feeling the faint floral fragrance between his lips and teeth, Jiang Moli sighed that he didn't know when he would be able to learn this wonderful craft from Aunt Lin.
Holding the osmanthus cake that had been bitten off half by himself, the corners of his mouth shook lightly in front of the young man's eyes with a smile.
The words that came out of the young man's mouth unexpectedly made the girl's heartbeat at the beginning of her dream a little faster at this moment.
When did it start, the little broken child who was always behind him was about to catch up with himself in height before he knew it?
"In the future, in addition to practicing, I will have less contact with your eleventh uncle, otherwise no matter how old you are, won't you even be able to take care of your mother?"
Looking at the young man who was competing with Mo Li for pastries at this time, completely forgetting the lesson just now, Lin Mei scolded with a smile.
Needless to say, she also knew from whom she had learned the heart-warming words from her child's mouth.
At the beginning, Jiang Che was the enlightenment teacher after Xiao Man'er erected the crown, but I don't know whether it was right or wrong.
Thinking of the eleventh brother with a very different personality from her husband, Lin Mei couldn't help but have a big head.
Over the years, Jiang Che has been quite attentive to Xiaoman'er's cultivation guidance, otherwise he would not have made Jiang Xiaoman's marksmanship far superior to his peers in such a short period of time.
It's just that other aspects don't dare to compliment.
At least, Lin Mei didn't want to see the scene just now.
Jiang Moli has been taking care of Lin Mei since he came to the Overseer's Mansion five years ago, and he is like a mother and daughter with him.
To say that this child is also quite sensible, many times Xiao Man'er is taken to play by Jiang Moli, and the relationship between the two children is naturally not said.
When a mother always thinks more about her children, not selfishness but human nature, it is better to say that the memory has not been restored.
Now with the recovered memory, although the husband intends to hide it, with Lin Mei's cultivation, he can't see Jiang Moli's true roots from that child.
Although she is protected by her husband and two uncles at the moment, she knows the horror of the Great Xia Jiang Clan, and she understands what kind of storm will blow in the border land and even the entire southern region once the girl's life story is revealed.
