Chapter 75 Join the Army?
Pei Shuo practiced martial arts for two hours in the morning, had breakfast, then read and practiced calligraphy, and after lunch, he went to the martial arts field to ride and shoot.
My recent performance is really like a different person.
Pei Suiyin and Pei Zhengwen were satisfied in their eyes. Although Pei Zhengwen was usually at home, he didn't even say anything praises. After walking down the court and his colleagues on the road, he inadvertently spoke about the changes in the legitimate son, which was enough to surprise his colleagues so much that they couldn't even close their mouths.
Pei Zheng is used to being silent and gold. Except for the layout of war, no one can pry open his mouth when he doesn't want to talk.
His colleagues said this so that they felt a wild cat in their hearts. They were trying to scratch the wall. Are they showing off their son or deliberately pounding them? When they got home and asked again, their bastard son didn't know that Pei Shuo had returned to the capital for a few days, and thought he was living a comfortable life in Nanxun County.
Some people are happy and some are worried about Pei Shuo’s changes.
As sad as Pei Xingzhi's family, as Cui Mengzhang.
The news of her pregnancy was sent back to Cui's family, and Mrs. Cui decided to come to visit her the next day.
It snows early in the morning, and it takes two hours at a time.
The sky cleared and the blue sky was exposed. The sun shone on the bedding-like snow. The sparrows that escaped the heavy snow jumped and left a few bamboo-leaf-like claw marks on the snow. The treetops were overwhelmed and the clusters of white snow shook off.
Cui Mengzhang saw the arrangement of side halls and flower halls coming and going, so he insisted on greeting Mrs. Cui from the pavilion beside the garden.
The Pei family's houses are planted with tall poplars and tall sycamore trees. The short shrubs are almost extinct, the garden has no flowers, and there are several patterns made of five-color pebbles on the ground. The largest pattern is five bats, which means five blessings. There is green grass on both sides, which is extremely soft when stepped on, and there is nothing else.
This is the scene of spring and summer, and when autumn and winter are in bleakness, we just need to practice martial arts and fight, and we can still play snowball fights after heavy snow.
A pavilion floated out from the corridor connecting the garden and the main hall for people to sit down and rest. Sitting upright on the pavilion allows you to see the garden scene at a glance, which can be regarded as one of the few elegant places in the Pei family. Cui Mengzhang ordered his servants to hang Yuan blue crepe curtains to three sides of the garden, and place stone mirrors on one side of the corridor with clear silk embroidered screens to block the wind.
Then put a delicate charcoal stove, and the pavilion is like a warm and pleasant place.
Mrs. Cui followed the maid's guide and came to Shizhaoting. She couldn't beat her up: "It's cold weather, don't you stay in the house properly, but instead want to implicate the piece of meat in your stomach!"
Cui Mengzhang was wrapped in a cloak with a fox hair, only revealing a small face of an unpowdered goose egg. He held Mrs. Cui's hand and said affectionately: "No! I have taken good care of myself. If you touch me, my hands are warm, no different from Xia Tian."
She freed up her hand to hold Mrs. Cui's tenderness and warmth. Mrs. Cui pinched her little hand almost the same as before she left the house. She asked her about her situation in the Pei family. Cui Mengzhang answered one by one, but there was something that was stuck in her heart, and she couldn't let it go if she didn't say it.
Seeing her inconvenience, Mrs. Cui continued to ask, and Cui Mengzhang touched her flat belly, worried: "...my brother and sister told me that the root cause of the Pei family's prosperity and yin decline was that of Master Pei. He was reincarnated by Wu Qu and was born to defeat his relatives. I was worried that if I stayed with him for a long time, it would affect the child."
"Where did you come from? If Master Pei wins his kinship, will I agree to this marriage push my obedience into the fire pit?" Mrs. Cui's eyebrows were raised. "Think about everything, don't just listen to it... Take care of which one in your belly. If it's a daughter, it's the only pearl in the Pei family's hand. Her brothers will love her. If it's a son, you have to find a way to win a future for him."
The mother and daughter said something else. Mrs. Cui had met someone and explained the matter well, so she went home.
Cui Mengzhang sent Mrs. Cui to the door, and as she looked at the sedan chair slowly away from her gaze, her mind echoed what Mrs. Cui told her.
The extreme phenomenon of the Pei family's yang and yin decline made her determine that the first child must be her son. What else can be more prosperous than the ready-made founding marquis?
Pei Shuo had no Chengjue for a day, and her son would have the chance to win! But then again, Pei Shuo is already ten years old this year, and her son will have to meet the world at least seven months. As long as he is not sick or painful, he is in good health and is in good health, and no accidents will happen, at the age of fifteen or sixteen, his father-in-law or the marquis will come forward to ask Feng Chengxie.
A maximum of five years.
She accidentally walked to Zhengqiyuan with thoughts, but unexpectedly heard the unexpected joy.
"What?" Pei Suiyin took his ears. Did he get old? He could understand every word Pei Shuo said, but the sentence he composed was so far away that his thoughts also disappeared with his ethereal voice.
Pei Shuo thought Pei Suiyin was playing with him, but he didn't care about it, so he said, "Grandpa, I didn't play with you. I'm serious and want to join the army."
Pei Suiyin: "It's great to join the army. When you are fifteen or sixteen years old, even if you don't say you don't want to go, we will still take you over."
"I want to leave after the New Year."
"No!" Pei Suiyin came back to his senses and widened his eyes, "What are you going crazy? Joining the army? Do you know that every autumn and winter, the barbarians go south to burn and kill and plunder several towns on the border, and how many militia soldiers die tragically at the hands of the barbarians, and the south, the enemy is staring at them, just waiting for the opportunity to catch fish in the waters and rushing troops north! You are joining the army? You have been killed by someone before you even take the long ge!"
"Grandpa!" Pei Shuo interrupted, "I can follow the training in the barracks first. I am not afraid of hardship or death..."
"But I'm afraid!" Pei Suiyin roared. "If you want to follow your father to learn, I will discuss it with your father. But what do you say to me? You say you have to start with a low-level pawn. The role of a pawn on the battlefield is to run at the forefront as cannon fodder! My Pei Suiyin's grandson, the legitimate son of the founding marquis, has become one of the pawns who have been sent to thousands of strokes on the battlefield with a noble status, but unknown, and died earlier than anyone else? This is how you treat the Pei family's unique skills?"
Pei Suiyin was so angry that he poked Pei Shuo's forehead with his hand. He could not breathe and covered his heart and breathed in big mouthfuls.
"Grandpa, have a cup of tea." Seeing this, Pei Shuo quickly poured a cup of tea and patted Pei Suiyin's back to calm him down.
Cui Mengzhang understood their complete conversation, and his heart was pounding.
Pei Shuo wanted to join the army, and he had to start with the soldiers, taking care of his father-in-law's wishes.
Although she didn't understand very well, she also got a glimpse from her father-in-law's words - Pei Shuo thought of joining the army after the New Year, not relying on the power of the family, but starting from an ordinary soldier.
