The man continued with a smile, "But don't worry, I won't forget to send you money in the future when I reach North Rejecting City."
The child shook his head like an old man, "As the saying goes, riches and honor cannot be corrupted, poverty cannot be shaken, might cannot be subdued. That's what a real man is!"
The man asked curiously, "What do you mean by that? Can you explain it to me? "
The child chuckled, "It means' Mister Liu said that the sage of the Zhang family said it '. You don't even know this, dad, you're really ignorant!"
The man was gratified, "It's okay if I'm ignorant, as long as you and your brother are."
At the mention of his brother, the child immediately said proudly, "I'm far from my brother. Even Mister Liu said that my brother is amazing!"
The man laughed heartily, "Aren't you both my son?!"
The woman looked at the father and son with a gentle smile.
She didn't know anything about war, nor did she know anything about knowledge. She only relied on her many years of daily necessities and saw a lot of people and things. She understood a simple truth. Some men would only say the harshest words to the people closest to them. However, some men would save their best temper for their family members.
Her man was the latter.
Therefore, whether it was the calmness of the past ten years or the gossip of the neighbors, she didn't feel that marrying this man back then was a mistake.
The child asked, "Dad, where was your hometown in the past? Is it that Songbai County? "
The man nodded, "Yes, but when I was your age, life wasn't good. There was no one left in the family and I couldn't survive, so I left my hometown."
The child laughed rudely, "No wonder the neighbors said that my mother fell for you. They're really blind."
This time, the woman didn't get angry. She only covered her mouth and laughed secretly.
The man was even less angry. He looked at his wife, "That's right!"
The child asked worriedly, "Dad, is my brother really going to study in that Gangnam-do? When will he be able to meet us in Songbai County? "
The man said softly, "I don't know either. When I was young, I swore that my son would have to study in the future. I always felt that studying was the best. No matter what he did, no matter how much money he earned, it was nothing. I lost my parents a long time ago. I only know that more than ten generations before me were farmers. Therefore, when I came to Beiliang, I met your mother, Xiangzhu. I was really lucky. Otherwise, if you and your brother were like me, you wouldn't be able to study! "
The child muttered, "Then why don't you treat Mother better!"
The man said helplessly, "That's all I can do. There's nothing I can do."
The woman's eyes curved into crescents. The man said that he was very lucky, but she felt that she was very happy.

On the day the mother and daughter left Longqing County City with their luggage, this man slowly returned to the city along the post road. When he returned to this small and shabby alley, he thought for a moment. Carrying the only two pig legs left in his house, he went to two places one after the other. One was secretly placed in front of the old man's house at the end of the street, and the other was delivered to Mister Liu's house.
During this process, the man didn't know how many people rolled their eyes at him and spat at him.
In the end, the man returned home and took out the wooden box covered in dust from under his bed. He never opened this box, and his wife was also considerate and never asked about it.
This man, who had lived in this small street for more than ten years and had always been silent, carried the heavy wooden box to the courtyard. He squatted down and used his strength to wipe away the dust.
The man muttered to himself, "My two old friends, not long after you accompanied me to Beiliang, the Great General led us to fight that battle in Beimang. It was really sullen. We won and retreated. Many people and I left the border army in anger. Later, we found out that it was the old Emperor of Liyang's scheme. It turned out that he was afraid that we would destroy Beimang in one breath, and then he wouldn't be able to sit on the dragon throne anymore … All these years, I really didn't have the face to see you guys … Hey, as for fighting, I, Lu Dayuan, joined the army at the age of fourteen. In the second year, I became a corporal. At the age of sixteen, I became a commandant. At the age of eighteen, I followed the Great General to the grave as the deputy general of a battalion. What was there to be afraid of? I also left the border army early. Otherwise, when little bastards like Wang Lingbao and Li Mofan see me, wouldn't they have to tuck their tails between their legs and behave themselves?! "
The commoners on this street were somewhat puzzled. After the sound of horse hooves, they saw seven to eight elite cavalry wearing armor and carrying swords stop in front of Lu Dayuan's house.
This made the commoners somewhat worried. They scolded Lu Dayuan, that foreign coward, but after all, they had been neighbors for more than ten years. Lu Dayuan wasn't a bad person. Everyone had deep feelings for each other. Otherwise, why would they scold him to his face?
This big enigmatic Lu Da better not offend the government's garrison!
The leader of the elite cavalry was a tall and sturdy man in his forties. He was now the main general of the local army stationed in Longqing County. He had been a commandant of the cavalry for more than ten years!
The commoners of Longqing County might not know him personally, but they all knew that this person was highly regarded by Lingzhou's General Han Laoshan. It was said that he was brothers with Hong Shuwen, who was born in the Red Phoenix Battalion!
In the future, how could a commandant with real power or a deputy general of a province run away?
One of the commandant's trusted subordinates asked softly, "Commandant, who are you sending off? Why do you need to personally come out? Normally, you wouldn't even be in the mood to look at those people who are close to the Zhong family. How could there be such an arrogant fellow in our Longqing County? "
The commandant sneered, "Those embroidered pillows aren't even fit to feed the horse of the person in the house!"
Then, the commandant proudly said, "Back then, I was the one who fed his horse!"
This kind of thing could be used to brag?
The cavalry looked at each other.
Did our commandant's head get clipped by a door recently? He wasn't like this in the past. His eyes were very high!
When the cavalry finally saw the man with the luggage step out of the courtyard, they were all stunned. His figure could be considered sturdy and tall. They couldn't tell that he was a person with three heads and six arms.
The commandant quickly dismounted from his horse. Then, he led a horse that no one was riding and walked forward. He cupped his fists and said in a deep voice, "Longqing County Cavalry Commandant Ma Yunjing! Greetings to Old Deputy General! "
The man with the luggage was holding a long item wrapped tightly in cotton cloth. He glanced at Ma Yunjing who had purposely avoided contact with him in the past decade and said exasperatedly, "When you call someone else, you have the word 'deputy' in your official position. Are you scolding me? Do you think you are a great general?
Great Peace City likes to greet those military generals with the word 'deputy' and the civil officials who are second in command? "
Ma Yunjing shrunk his neck and didn't dare to answer.
This man called Lu Dayuan looked around. He straightened and cupped his fists. "I, Lu Dayuan, thank everyone for taking care of me in these years!"
The people on the two sides of the street were puzzled and didn't know what to do.
Lu Dayuan hung the armor bag on the side of the saddle and then skillfully mounted the horse.
Regardless of whether they won or lost the battle outside Liangzhou Pass, he, Lu Dayuan, had no thoughts of returning to Lingzhou alive.
He hadn't worn armor or touched a blade for more than a decade. How could he not kill to recoup his losses!
Ma Yunjing reminded in a soft voice, "Old soldiers of Beiliang, according to the law, can carry a blade on the streets."
Lu Dayuan raised an eyebrow. He finally took off the cotton cloth that was wrapped around the long item and revealed an old battle blade that hung from his waist.
Lu Dayuan turned to look at Ma Yunjing who could not possibly follow him out of the pass. "If we lose, there is nothing to discuss. If we win, if my two sons return to Lingzhou in the future, tell them that their father is a butcher, but also one of the cavalry of the Xu family! "
Ma Yunjing nodded furiously. He had thousands of words, but only two words came out of his mouth, "Take care!"
Lu Dayuan glanced sideways and said, "Little brat, in the past, I knew that you were useless. As expected, you only became a shoddy commandant today."
Ma Yunjing's face flushed red.
Lu Dayuan suddenly took down the battle blade and threw it to Ma Yunjing. He laughed and said, "Fine, I'm going to use the new cold blade to kill the enemy. Since you fed the horse for so long in the past, I'll give you this one!"
Ma Yunjing felt as if he had received a treasure. Such a man actually had tears in his eyes.
This battle blade was the first generation of the Xu family's blade!
It symbolized the rise of the Xu family's cavalry in the land of Spring and Autumn. It symbolized the invincibility of the Xu family's cavalry in the Central Plains.
It was also because of the Xu family's old cavalry camp that the current Beiliang cavalry was the best in the world!
And this man was from one of the Xu family's old cavalry camps, the Manjia Camp!
First-class cavalry, Lu Dayuan!
The people on this street naturally did not know that after General Xu Xiao grew old, he had many times lamented to the civil and military officials in the meeting hall of Mount Qing Liang. In the past, that kid called Lu Dayuan was the fiercest in battle. He was comparable to Lu Qiu 'er. He was really not a coward.
Chu Lushan would always complain that he was wronged, but that guy surnamed Lu always charged forward with all his might. He never paid attention to the art of war, so he was definitely not as good as me.
Yuan Zuozong would tear him down, but he never lost even once.
Butcher would nod and say, "Yes, he's like me."
And then a certain young man would mock him with His Royal Highness.
Around the beginning of autumn this year.
Many of the Xu family's old soldiers like Lu Dayuan began to rush out of the pass.
And they were the backbone of the Beiliang cavalry.
At this time, Lu Dayuan and Ma Yunjing urged their horses out of the city together, mumbling something.
The young elite cavalry could only hear the faint sound, but it was not very clear.
After Ma Yunjing sent Lu Dayuan to the road outside the city, he watched him leave, speechless for a long time.
Finally, when he turned his horse around, Ma Yunjing also mumbled, "My Xu family's Manjia Camp, the scouts roam everywhere, that is to scatter, the camp does not move, it is to support the beam …"
